Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

Membership card top-ups are extremely popular.

Li Zhi quickly sold 71 membership cards, and with Bai Xue, Ya Xi, and others who recharged 10 gold, he made another small profit.

After selling all the membership cards, Snow White and Yashi really left, while Hena went to challenge the third-place holder.

—Li Zhi will not return the position to Hena until the beginning of the next season.

The points she gained from defeating Hena, combined with her previous accumulated points, have brought her into the top ten of the leaderboard. In addition, the reward for defending the title should be a substantial income, based on Hena and others' experience.

The top performers, in particular, are often rewarded with rare resources that are not available on the market.

Li Zhi wanted to return the ring to Hena because she didn't have time to defend it.

Besides, Hena is now her man, so working for her is also a way for him to make money.

But one thing is one thing, and the rewards are rightfully hers.

So after discussing it, Hena went to challenge the defender of the third arena, while Li Zhi discussed other matters with He Dong.

"I would like to hire you as guards for my store. The salary will be paid by the hour, 1 silver per hour, and you will enjoy the same benefits as regular employees. You will also be able to purchase items in the store at internal prices without needing a membership card."

He Dong's hesitant expression turned to astonishment.

She flared her nostrils several times, solemnly touched Li Zhi's cheek with her nose, and took a half step back, saying, "At this moment, I swear to my Mother Earth, I, He Dong, will never, ever hurt you. You will always be my sister!"

Li Zhi also leaned over and rubbed his cheek against He Dong's.

"I also vow to do everything in my power to protect the next generation of hyena cubs and ensure their safe growth."

The first time He Dong opened his mouth was with a smile.

The fangs no longer seemed to gleam with a cold light.

After dealing with matters in the seventh trial area, Li Zhi stepped onto the first arena and established her own rules: [To challenge the defending champion, one must submit a rare piece of equipment/resource/item. The champion will only accept the challenge if they deem the rare equipment/resource/item desirable.]

After establishing the rules, Li Zhi teleported back to his flying boat.

Sivir is up there.

He wasn't surprised to see her return, and pointed to the central control area of ​​the cockpit, saying, "I upgraded your weapons and defense systems. See if there's anything you want to change?"

Li Zhi carefully tried out every new and upgraded feature.

In conclusion: Sivir is expensive, but it's definitely worth it.

Her flying boat had been transformed into a fully enclosed design, resembling an airship, but its interior space had expanded to more than three times its previous size.

The defense value skyrocketed from 10000 points to 1000000 points.

Even if a small team of a B-class race came to attack her, they wouldn't be able to damage her spaceship in a short time.

The weapons were also changed from light ballistae that could only attack in one direction to laser cannons that covered the entire surface of the airship and fired in all directions.

The damage value has also skyrocketed from 100 points for light crossbows, which require hitting the enemy within range to reach the maximum value, to 1000 points for all-around long-range attacks as soon as it is activated.

Although the consumption of energy crystals can be quite staggering.

But if she were to encounter the same Bloodlust Spirits again, she wouldn't need any smelly potions or screaming toys; one strike would be enough to melt all of them.

Even the bloodthirsty demon spirits no longer pose a threat to her.

It can be said that as long as she is in the airship, unless an A-level soldier with combat talent or profession and carrying a weapon of B-level or higher comes, she will be fearless in a one-on-one situation.

—That's a different story once we disembark from the spaceship.

Li Zhiyue was increasingly satisfied and felt that the money was well spent.

"I told you she would like it."

Celia pushed open the cockpit door and spoke to Sivir, who was finishing up her work.

Sivir looked at Li Zhi: "If you have any good customers, you can introduce them to me. You can take 1% of the renovation cost."

Li Zhi: "I will definitely recommend you to any customers. By the way, Master Sivir, if you are interested in going out for a stroll, you can visit my soon-to-open shop. It has everything you need. This is my shop's membership card. With this, you can freely enter and exit my safe zone."

Sivir looked up: "You want to designate a safe zone in the Emerald Mountains?"

Celia also lifted her eyelids and looked over.

Li Zhi: "Is there a problem?"

When she first learned about the Emerald Mountains, she thought their location was excellent and planned to allocate the remaining safe zone area there.

"Aside from the Golden City of the Scaled Clan, there shouldn't be any other inhabited land around this mountain range, right?"

Celia said hoarsely, "Guess why the Forging Clan chose to expend a lot of fuel to keep their airships hovering in the sky, instead of choosing a location to build their city. The Scale Clan's Golden City is also built 10 kilometers away?"

She didn't let Li Zhi guess, but answered directly: "Because the Emerald Mountains were once the private territory of the Apocalypse Clan. Even though this Apocalypse Clan member is dead, there is still His energy field in this area. Without His permission, no one can designate a safe zone in His territory."

Li Zhi recalled that the description of the Jade Heart read: "[The crystallization of a certain Apocalypse Clan's talent]."

The crystals extracted from talent are distributed across hundreds of trial areas. Although the chances of them refreshing are not many, there have been at least 500 of them over the centuries.

Awakening the second talent might only require 3 points.

What immense power it must be to have the extracted talent still functioning stably even after so many years since death.

Li Zhi: "But He is dead, how could I possibly get His permission?"

Celia looked intently at Li Zhi: "You might have a chance."

Li Zhi was astonished: "Communicating with the dead?"

Celia: "The Emerald Mountains are named after that Apocalypse Clan member, and the Heart of the Strong was born because of her. She is the first portrait in the Star and Moon Corridor."

"It is said that all those who possess the heart of a strongman leave a part of their soul in the Star Moon Corridor, which can communicate and talk with those who come after them, and even make some decisions. Some say they have died, while others say they have not died, but have just gone to another place. But only those who possess the heart of a strongman can answer this question."

"If you can sense that part of your soul in the Starry Moon Corridor, you might be able to communicate with Emerald of the Apocalypse Clan and obtain His consent."

Li Zhi returned to the cabin in the woods, still processing the information Celia had just given him for free.

As she pondered this, she opened the player panel.

Let's think about how to allocate these 14 attribute points first.
