Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

Li Zhi instructed the airship to autopilot according to the resource points marked on the aerial map, and immediately refreshed the deck, using up all his mental energy before upgrading, focusing on not wasting any.

I've refreshed it 4 times already, and there are 11 more refreshes to go.

Li Zhi quickly drew the D card.

The blessing effect has worn off, and the luck seems to have been almost used up; the cards that came 11 times were all mediocre.

Li Zhi's warehouse has received more raw materials and food.

The only pleasant surprise was that I got two new one-time talent cards.

【Tracking (One-time Talent): Can be used on S-rank and lower races. After use, the target's coordinates can be viewed at any time within 1 day of revelation.】

【Concealment (One-time Talent): After use, races below SS rank cannot see your level or true identity. 3 uses, 15 Earth minutes per use (Why do some people always get those sneaky, underhanded things when drawing cards?)】

Li Zhi habitually ignored the words in parentheses, carefully put away the two one-time talent cards, and then took out the Origin Card and the Intermediate Copy Card.

[The "Intermediate Copy Card" has been used to copy the "Li Zhi D-level Origin Card"]

Three Origin Cards stacked together.

Li Zhi's breathing slowed down.

While the 2176 Apocalypse Dust particles combined would certainly be a huge asset, the ability to upgrade was her biggest unexpected joy today.

The golden light shimmered, gradually solidifying into a gold coin suspended in mid-air.

Li Zhi eagerly reached out and let the gold coins fall into her palm.

The gold coin touched the skin and transformed into a force that entered the body, while a dialog box popped up in front of the player:

[Congratulations to the player who returned my 3-star, 5-cost character!!! Reached D3 level and gained 9 attribute points, which can be allocated as desired.]

Li Zhi opened his current attribute table:

Player Attributes:

Health: 22.65/24.15 (Minor injuries healing, boosted by equipment stats)

Spirit: 15.5/15.5 (Equipment attributes +2.5)

Strength: 10.5 (Equipment attributes +2.5)

Speed: 14.5 (equipment attributes +4.5)

Overall combat strength: 11.5 (Strong Rat Power)

With the added bonuses from the badges and boots, her attributes are now actually quite balanced.

Her mental strength is her foundation and her greatest advantage. Moreover, she is planning to make another fortune by selling low-level raw materials to upgrade high-level raw materials, so her mental attribute must be further enhanced.

However, strength and speed affect overall health and combat effectiveness. The escape from Black Iron Harbor by rock climbing and being suppressed by the Hunter Group have already demonstrated the importance of these two factors.

Li Zhi felt that 9 attribute points were too few.

There aren't enough to go around.

Then we must make some choices.

Li Zhi didn't hesitate for long: "Add 4 points to Spirit, 1 point to Strength, and 4 points to Speed."

In the short term, strength is relatively the least important factor.

She lacks offensive skills, and simply increasing her strength won't be of much use.

The speed is different.

The 4.5 attribute points boosted by the badge and boots together made her feel very light when she jumped, and her agility in climbing and dodging obstacles was also greatly improved.

Li Zhi wanted to see if raising the speed attribute points to 18.5 would provide a greater boost.

[Add points successfully]

Player Attributes:

Health: 33/33 (Can peck at Rockbeak) (Equipment attribute bonus)

Spirit: 19.5/19.5 (D-grade ceiling) (Equipment attributes +2.5)

Strength: 11.5 (Sole of the Feet of All Races) (Equipment Attribute +2.5)

Speed: 18.5 (Don't touch a tiger's rear end without boots) (Equipment attribute +4.5)

Overall combat strength: 15 (Power of a single fox)

Health fully restored after the upgrade!

Li Zhi unwrapped the gauze and looked thoughtfully at his fingers and palms, which had already healed.

Does this mean that as long as she keeps the three Origin Cards on hand and doesn't upgrade them, she can save them for use in a critical moment?

Revive by a drop of blood.

Full of energy.

Isn't this more effective than any powerful healing potion?

But Li Zhiye thought that the probability of implementing this in reality was almost zero.

Her level is too low right now.

Races of C rank or higher who want to kill her might not even give her the chance to upgrade using the Origin Card.

More importantly, she cannot let anyone know the secret of the Origin Card.

Li Zhi pushed open the door to the cockpit and ran back and forth on the deck several times, feeling as light as a swallow.

If she were to return to Black Iron Harbor last night, she would definitely not get hurt climbing that crystal door again.

Experiencing firsthand that you are getting stronger step by step gives you a great sense of accomplishment and inspires a stronger desire for power and strength.

Li Zhi leaned against the fence, looked at another airship not far away, and waved with a refreshed expression.

The person who was trying to survive happened to be on the deck and waved vigorously at her when he saw this.

Inside the driver's seat, upon seeing this scene, Ou Huang turned to look at Hao Shi.

"What kind of person do you think Sanwu is?"

Master Hao was training with a sandbag when he heard this. Without even looking up, he quickly threw a punch: "A person with a very strong ability to adapt."

After a moment of stunned silence, the European Emperor smiled and said, "That's true. She really does seem to have adapted to this world very quickly. Many times I feel like I'm still playing a game, but she seems to have completely integrated into this world and is seriously planning for the future."

Master Hao withdrew his fist and shook his head, saying, "It's not just that."

The European Emperor: "How so?"

Teacher Hao: "Think back, when you and Sheng Sheng first saw those corpses after landing, what were your and Sheng Sheng's reactions?"

After thinking for a moment, the European Emperor's face slowly turned pale: "Disgusted, terrified, I don't want to get down at all."

She suddenly realized, "Yes, when I came down and saw Sanwu, I wondered how she could have such a strong mentality. Not only was she not disgusted by the corpse, but she could also find Tianqi Weichen without changing her expression. I even wondered if she often dealt with corpses on Blue Star. But then too many things happened, and I forgot about it."

Master Hao: "When she first got off the flying boat, her breathing was very rapid, and she approached the corpse slowly. Her steps were heavier than when she got off. This was a clear sign of resistance. But when she got to my side, all of these signs disappeared."

The lucky one slowly sat up straight: "What do you mean? You don't mean she adjusted her mindset in the time it took to walk those few steps, do you? I remember when you came back from the trial grounds on the first day, you were throwing up for a whole day and night."

Teacher Hao looked into the eyes of the European Emperor: "That's exactly what I mean."

"Mingchuan, with her mental fortitude, as long as she doesn't die, she'll only get stronger. Being on good terms with her will only bring benefits, not harm."

The European Emperor: "But what we want isn't to cling to powerful figures, but simply to find a place to live a peaceful and stable life..."

"Don't think about these things for now." Teacher Hao sat down next to her. "I told you about her changes to remind you of something else."

The European Emperor: "You say it."

"Sanwu is extremely vigilant and has a strong sense of defensiveness towards people. She doesn't allow herself to show weakness in front of anyone, which means she can't show her true self to anyone, let alone easily give her trust. On the contrary..."

"She's someone who's exceptionally easy to get along with, or rather, exceptionally skilled at interpersonal relationships. Someone who doesn't trust others yet can easily gain their trust—what do you think will happen when you're around her?"

The lucky guy: "She swindled me out of everything!"

Teacher Hao: "No, you will try every means to gain her trust and hope that she will trust you."

The European Emperor frowned: "Why?"

Teacher Hao: "Because she already knows about your talent, and the three of us owe her a huge favor. In the future, we will inevitably have more and more interactions, and the deeper the bond, the harder it will be to break. She is the most likely person to grow into someone who can protect Sheng Sheng, or rather, someone who can give us a stable life."

"Think about it carefully, can you really refuse her?"
