Survival in the neighborhood: Give me a piece of bread every day

[Sturdy windows]

[Level: 4]

[Durability: 20/20]

[Can be broken down into: 8 pieces of wood, 4 pieces of iron, 1 piece of glass, and 1 piece of reinforced glass]

Upgrade Requirement: Window Blueprint x1

[Introduction: Waaah, I've finally gotten hard! I can protect my master from the dangers in the dark. So happy!]

"As expected, there is a hurdle to overcome when upgrading from level 4 to level 5."

Since there had been prior speculation, Chen An was not surprised.

The windows, now upgraded to level four, are considerably larger than before.

The area of ​​glass has increased.

He tapped his fingers, a little worried about whether the window could withstand the monster's impact.

"Let me test the hardness."

Chen An gathered his strength in his hand and then punched the glass hard.

"Bang!"

His fist stung a little from the recoil, but the glass remained completely still.

"Is this the hardness of tempered glass? Not bad, not bad."

Chen An was very satisfied.

The room's last weakness has finally been exploited!

From now on, we won't have to worry about monsters attacking us through the windows.

Although no monsters were seen in the window for the first three days, and no one in the chat room even mentioned it.

However, judging from the description of this whining window, it is highly likely that monsters will attack through the window later.

This makes sense; otherwise, there would be no need to specifically suggest that windows can be upgraded.

For example, there are no upgrade prompts for the walls.

Even though the wall looks like an ordinary cement wall, Chen An tested it with a crossbow. Although he could hit it, he couldn't destroy it.

In other words, whether it's a monster or a person, if they want to attack him in the room, they must attack through the door or window.

Therefore, these two entry points must be significantly upgraded.

"I had seen the window blueprints before, but I didn't have time to buy them. Then the person's profile picture turned black, and the blueprints were taken down."

Jiang Lai saw the upgraded window data and the requirements for the next level, and then spoke up to explain.

If the profile picture turns black, it means that the resident is dead.

If a resident dies, all items he sold will be automatically removed from the shelves.

"Hmm, no rush. Just keep an eye on the trading platform. I don't think any monsters will attack through the windows in the next couple of days."

Chen An guessed.

Even if I'm wrong, a level 4 window should be enough.

"OK."

Jiang Lai nodded, then stopped looking at the gossip in the chat room and started browsing the trading platform seriously.

Her job as a purchasing agent is actually not easy.

Because items are being added to the shelves every minute and every second.

You need to keep a close eye on it, otherwise you might easily miss out on something good.

Of course, compared to Lin Luxi and Wang Ziyan who went out on adventures, her job was relatively easy, at least there was no danger to her life.

At this moment, Chen An's control panel vibrated.

It's news about Wang Ziyan.

Wang Ziyan: We didn't get a second gift pack, and Teacher Bai and Lu Xi got hurt.

Wang Ziyan: There's this guy who can turn invisible! He's so awful! While we were fighting with the other residents, he secretly put the gift package into his backpack. Although we caught him, he had already traded the gift package to someone else.

Chen An frowned.

I was just about to reply to Wang Ziyan's message.

Then the panel vibrated again.

Li Jia's message also arrived at this time.

Li Jia: Boss, we almost got the second gift pack, but some bastard snatched it away! Now he's insisting he traded the gift pack to his landlord. I beat him up, but he says the gift pack is gone forever.

Li Jia: Boss, I'd like to ask for your instructions on how to deal with this guy?

Chen An originally wanted to say to just kill them.

But killing yields no benefit.

After thinking for a few seconds, he replied:

009527: When you go upstairs, bring him up with you. We'll then talk to the landlord and have him pay to ransom him.

Li Jia: Okay, boss.

Chen An closed Li Jia's chat interface and then replied to Wang Ziyan's message.

Roommate No. 009527: Please take Lin Luxi and Teacher Bai upstairs first. Don't take any more risks if they're injured.

Wang Ziyan: Hmm.

"I wonder how badly Lin Luxi is injured. I'll see if I can trade for bandages and medicine."

Jiang Lai also saw the chat and said, "The problem is that medical supplies are very scarce, and the prices are generally very high."

"If you find one, just buy it. It doesn't matter if there's a premium."

Chen An said.

After all, it was his order to send Lin Luxi and Wang Ziyan downstairs.

As for the guy who intercepted their gift package...

There's no benefit in killing them directly.

Let's see if we can exchange it for some supplies.

I refuse to believe this guy is truly unafraid of death or torture.

Although Chen An had not learned any methods of torture, he could still scare people.

If all else fails, let Li Jia kill him.

Those who steal from them must pay the price!

Otherwise, if other residents find out, they will think they are easy to bully.

Everyone will come and kick them when the time comes.

"Knock knock knock!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Chen An thought it was Lin Luxi and Wang Ziyan who had returned, but after glancing at the surveillance footage, he realized it was their neighbor across the hall, Zhao Jiahao.

He frowned.

He vaguely remembered this neighbor.

I heard that he had turned down Xu Bo's invitations several times before.

He's a lone wolf.

However, he had bought repeating crossbows before.

Moreover, they paid in gold coins directly.

This guy is more developed than the average resident.

As he was thinking, he opened the door.

"Chen An, how about we make a deal?"

Upon seeing Chen An, Zhao Jiahao immediately asked the question.

"A deal? Come on in and talk about it."

Chen An was wary of this lone wolf.

These types of people are usually very ambitious and unwilling to be subordinate to others.

Zhao Jiahao made no attempt to hide his thoughts.

Just like the other residents all called him "boss" or even "godfather".

But Zhao Jiahao called him classmate.

"What kind of deal? Tell me about it."

Chen An sat on the bed and looked at Zhao Jiahao.

He noticed that Zhao Jiahao had wounds on his arms and legs.

Although it was bandaged with a rag, it was still bleeding.

"Does your promise to upgrade my room door to level four if I bring you back a gift pack still stand?"

Zhao Jiahao covered the wound on his arm with one hand and asked.

Chen An's heart stirred, and he nodded, saying, "How could I go back on my word? As long as you can give me the gift pack, I will help you upgrade your room to level four, no matter what I get inside."

"Okay, I've listed the gift pack on the trading platform and specified you as the trader. As long as you help me upgrade my room door to level four now, the gift pack is yours!"

Zhao Jiahao swallowed hard and said.

Judging from his weak appearance, he's probably almost out of energy.

Chen An glanced at the trading platform, confirmed the order, then took out a bottle of water and tossed it to Zhao Jiahao, saying, "Have a drink of water, upgrade my permissions, and then wait in my room while I upgrade your door."

"Okay, thank you."

Zhao Jiahao nodded, feeling relieved.

He didn't take out the gift package directly because he was worried that Chen An would double-cross him.

Although judging from today's situation, Chen An doesn't seem like that kind of person.

But we still need to take precautions.

He didn't want to gamble on the evil in human nature!
