Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

500 copper is not a problem.

You can make a good profit from fluorescent moss spores.

A D-grade license is not a problem.

Anyway, with the Energy Treasure, even if her mental energy can't be fully restored by the next day, she can still refresh 20 times.

The problem lies in D2.

Anyone who has played chess has experienced the impotent rage of spending all their money on a single card.

She didn't know if dealers existed in this world.

But whether she gets it or not, she has no idea when she will be able to obtain a second Origin Card or Intermediate Copy Card.

Li Zhi didn't let himself dwell on his worries. Instead, he focused on organizing his supplies and backpack, categorizing everything.

Time quietly ticked to 1 a.m., everything was packed up, and the chat room was still bustling with activity.

Li Zhi carefully laid out the pillows, mattress, and blankets, snuggled comfortably in the blankets, and then opened the chat window.

It's so cold, so dark, and so hungry...

How much Apocalypse Dust do you all have?

[Does anyone notice anything strange happening outside? Would anyone go check it out?]

[Idiot, if you think there's commotion outside, why don't you go check it out yourself? Instead, you're trying to trick others into becoming your cannon fodder?]

[Collecting Apocalyptic Dust, High Price]

I have a blueprint for upgrading an advanced airship. I've created a group to share information with experienced players. Group number: 0006

Advanced airship blueprints?

Li Zhi searched for the group number, and a dialog box popped up:

Joining this group requires verification of 188 copper coins; a screenshot is sufficient.

Li Zhi raised an eyebrow slightly.

I found a screenshot tool, took a screenshot, and sent it over.

It passed instantly.

AAA professional boosting expert Hao Shi: [Welcome newbie @Give me back my 3-star, 5-cost character!!!]

AAA's Number One Lucky Player: [Welcome, welcome!]

The survivor passed: [! It's someone I know!]

Li Zhi also didn't expect that the "Survival Pass" was also there.

There were only 10 coppers when trading started in the morning.

They'll verify your funds for 188 yuan right tonight?

What kind of cheaters are these?!

AAA professional boosting expert Hao Shi: [Welcome newbie @Give me a piece of paper]

AAA professional boosting expert Hao Shi: [Welcome newbie @Call me Feng Aotian]

Give me a piece of paper: [Hello everyone!]

Call Me Phoenix Aotian: [I wasn't really interested at first, but when I saw that I needed to verify my credentials, I started to find it interesting.]

AAA's Number One Lucky Player: [@Call Me Phoenix Aotian, You're a Bit Arrogant~]

Call me Feng Aotian: [Look at my name.]

AAA professional boosting expert Hao: [Welcome newbie @Titanium alloy β phase grain size exceeds standard]

AAA professional boosting expert Hao Shi: [Welcome newbie @Call me Feng Aotian]

AAA's Number One Lucky One: [Welcome to the person with the longest name in the group @Titanium Alloy's β Phase Grain Size Exceeds Standard and the person with the shortest name in the group @A]

AAA professional boosting coach Hao Shi: [Welcome newbie @Magician]

AAA professional boosting expert Hao Shi: [Welcome newbie @You're safe]

Li Zhi never expected to see three acquaintances in a group chat.

Especially for those who are greedy for survival, several private messages were sent at once.

Greedy Pass: [You sold 188 worth of anti-inflammatory drugs?! ???]

GreedyPass: [Hey bro, do you have any more anti-inflammatory medication? I still have a slight fever, I feel like I need to take it for a couple more days to be stable!]

Greedy for survival passed: [Hey boss, say something!]

Give me back my 3-star, 5-cost account!!! : [Didn't you used to be unable to afford even 10 copper potions? How come you suddenly have 188 points?]

Li Zhi wasn't intentionally prying into other people's privacy; he just couldn't suppress his curiosity.

She had previously peeked into the area chat for a while and saw quite a few strange talents.

But most of them have very ordinary talents, and when it comes to Li Zhi, she feels completely lost.

Of course, some people with exceptional talent may be reluctant to reveal their abilities for fear of attracting unwanted attention, but generally speaking, the majority of people with average talent are likely to be ordinary.

She felt that her "D card" was somewhat of a golden finger.

And he was even a little smug.

As a result, in the group that required verification of 188 yuan, 10 people joined within 10 seconds.

They crushed her smugness in one fell swoop.

GreedyPass: [You mean this? My older sister is the lucky one, and my childhood friend is the one who helped me get in. They pooled their money to get me in with a score of 188. That shouldn't count as using connections, right?]

Li Zhi: ...

These two people each have 188, and they can still add another 188 to help the greedy student pass. What does this prove?

This proves that these two people easily earned the money she couldn't earn even after a whole afternoon of hard work!

Li Zhi collapsed onto the bed.

Suddenly, he sprang into the air like a bicycle, performed a 360-degree flying kick, rolled around, and suffocated himself with a pillow... He vented all the anger from the afternoon and the discomfort he felt at the moment until the iron bunk bed made a sound as if it was about to fall apart, and then he collapsed onto the bed.

Indeed, I can never rid myself of greed, anger, and ignorance in this lifetime.

However, this is also why her company was able to go public, and why she believed she could always climb back up even after falling to the bottom.

So what if the posture is a little awkward?

So what if I look a little disheveled?

Ultimately, she will get everything she wants.

After giving himself a pep talk, Li Zhi hugged his blanket and opened a private chat.

Give me back my 3-star, 5-cost card!!! : [I still have anti-inflammatory drugs, let's trade directly.]

The survivor passed: [Great!]

After trading three anti-inflammatory pills to Tan Sheng Pass, Li Zhi removed the anti-inflammatory pills from the trading area.

But she didn't plan to sell these anti-inflammatory drugs at the wilderness market.

After observing for a day, Li Zhi discovered that the wilderness market was far less bustling than it appeared on the surface.

She sells salt and a small amount of anti-inflammatory medicine, which has already attracted a lot of covetous eyes.

Selling large quantities of anti-inflammatory drugs might mean making money but not living to enjoy it.

Moreover... she had already earned 1791 copper from her glowing moss spores in one night, and her three-day earnings were estimated to be even higher than she had anticipated.

Sui Cheng thought, he had worked hard all afternoon and earned two or three hundred, and by robbing someone, he could become a thousand-copper household in an instant.

She decided to take back what she had said to Tu earlier.

Rat Man —

If you squeeze it, there will definitely be some oil left!

After removing the anti-inflammatory drugs from the shelves, Li Zhi reopened the group chat. There were still only 10 people in it, and they were already discussing the materials for the advanced airship blueprints.

AAA professional boosting service provider Hao Shi posted two screenshots, each showing a separate chat box:

Please select the upgrade direction:

1、居住型；2、武装型；3、探索型；4、种植型；5、堡垒型】

Please select the percentage of functionality:

Residential function: 10%-100%

Armament capability: 0%-90%

Explore features: 0%-90%

Planting capacity: 0%-90%

Defense capability: 0%-90%

Li Zhi watched very carefully, and no one in the group said anything.

She had previously studied the standard blueprints and found that the upgraded airships basically only included living and storage functions; although the outer shell would be reinforced, the armaments would be almost nonexistent.

Advanced blueprints not only allow for the selection of different directions but also enable the free adjustment of the proportions of different functions, making it entirely possible to create a personalized, custom-made flying boat.

Li Zhi could already imagine how utterly vulnerable a flying boat upgraded from ordinary blueprints would be when it encountered a flying boat upgraded from advanced blueprints.

AAA Professional Boosting Master Hao: [Those who can join the group are all smart people. I don't need to explain; everyone should be able to see the difference between advanced and ordinary flying boats. This is my sincerity towards everyone. I hope we can exchange information and improve together.]

Magician: [Of course, but I'd really like to know, where did you get this advanced airship blueprint? Did you find it in a treasure chest or something?]

AAA's Number One Lucky Player: [Friend, let's be honest, you haven't given us any information yet and you're already asking us for two tips?]

Li Zhi stared thoughtfully at the first message, and a few seconds later, he opened the trading market.

She wanted to verify her hypothesis.

Soon, she found someone selling spaceship blueprints, which were priced at 10 copper coins.

Li Zhi bought it directly.

Take out the previous two drawings, overlap the three drawings, and a burst of white light will be emitted in the next second.

A dialog box popped up:

Three identical blueprints detected. Upgrade?

really!

When the game reminded her that she could only upgrade energy material cards, she had a question:

Card upgrades are her unique talent. So, after the upgrade, are the energy materials unique to her, or are they actually an improvement based on the material levels of this world?

If it's the former, then the required materials are already specified on the ordinary airship blueprint. Can this blueprint still be used to upgrade with brand new materials?

If it's the latter, then it proves there should be another blueprint for a higher-level material. How can we obtain it?

At the time, Li Zhi thought that since this damn game had even fixed the bug that allowed her to exploit talent limitations, there shouldn't be an even bigger bug.

Upon seeing Hao Shi's advanced airship upgrade blueprints, a conjecture suddenly occurred to Li Zhifu.

—The existence of blueprints is special; everyone can upgrade blueprints!

The advanced blueprints in her hand confirmed her suspicions.

The advanced blueprints in the hands of AAA professional boosting expert Hao Shi are most likely upgraded versions of ordinary blueprints.

This should be the second piece of information she and the European Emperor share.
