The next morning, Zhang Shi got a big surprise when he checked in. This time, the sign-in reward was a divine artifact-level item.

The system notifies you that you have received the following rewards for checking in:

[Wilderness World VIP Membership Card (7 days x1)]

[Absolute Sovereignty (Pink) x1: A divine artifact-level item that, once placed, allows you to freely restrict any spatial movement within your territory.]

After using the membership card, Zhang Shi placed the artifact in the villa. A new window immediately appeared on the system panel, containing a list of permissions. Zhang Shi tried to revoke his own permissions and then tested it with Shadow Step. He found that no matter what he tried or who he targeted, Shadow Step had no effect.

"It seems this is what is called restricted spatial movement."

After some thought, Zhang Shi had already figured out the benefits this item would bring him. As long as he placed absolute sovereignty on the island, no one could teleport without his permission. Anyone who wanted to land on the island would have to travel by water. This would greatly improve the island's security and save a lot of unnecessary trouble when it was opened to survivors in the future.

After working in shifts all night, Zhao Feng's team had completed the initial construction of the sea station, though the interior decoration was still underway. A team of soldiers were busily working according to the design plans, and Zhang Shi joined in to help. Thanks to the various advanced technologies of the wilderness world, the sea station was finally completed by noon. To celebrate, Zhang Shi hosted a barbecue party at the station to reward everyone who had contributed to its construction. At that moment, Mao Tai arrived with several soldiers, carrying three beer barrels, looking both excited and thrilled.

"My lord, these are the three types of wine brewed yesterday. They have been tested and are ready to drink. Please take a look."

Zhang Shi smiled and patted Mao Tai on the shoulder. Then, without making a sound, he examined the three barrels of wine. The results showed that there was nothing wrong with the wine. Only then did Zhang Shi feel relieved and led Mao Tai into the post station.

With the addition of fine wine, the atmosphere at the post station became even more lively. Zhang Shi gave everyone present a day off, allowing them to drink freely. Even the young nobleman Ge Dalong raised a glass of fruit wine and savored it carefully, ultimately giving it extremely high praise, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

"Although it doesn't have any special effects, the quality of this wine is very high, and it must have been made by a master brewer."

Upon hearing Ge Dalong's words, Mao Tai's smile was even more pronounced than AK's, and he even seemed a little smug. Zhang Shi approached him, indicating that he could select manpower for the subsequent mass production work, while he himself prepared to put the maritime relay station into use. He then opened the chat interface, first informing Wang Wu and his group of the message, and then posting the information on the regional and world channels.

Zhang Shi (VIp): Dear Survivors, our team has built a new sea station on the island, providing a variety of food, drinks and entertainment facilities, striving to create a safe haven for survivors during their ocean travels. We have now partnered with @WangWuPassenger Transport Team, and welcome all survivors to come and spend money. The prices are fair and attractive, and during the opening phase, everyone will receive a complimentary drink.

Subsequently, Zhang Shi even took several pictures of the rest stop and posted them. As soon as the news was released, it caused a huge uproar in the survivor community.

"What's going on? A flood has sent me back to the Stone Age, yet someone has managed to build a bar. It's infuriating how people compare themselves to each other!"

"Hey, does anyone know who this Wang Wu is and can help me get in touch with him? Before I transmigrated, I used to enjoy a little drink, but I haven't had a drop in over a month since I came here. That bastard Zhang Shi even sent me pictures of bars to tempt me, and now I'm really craving it."

"I care more about practical value than enjoyment. Look at the weapons, equipment, and food that Boss Zhang Shi distributed. Judging from my observation, most of them are graded. This is even more exciting than his previous clearance sales. I'm going to go and stock up this time, even if I have to sell everything I own. I'll just put them on the trading market when I get back, and I'll have all those gleaming gold coins in my hands. After a few more times like this, I won't have to do anything to eat, drink, and have fun. It'll be wonderful."

"The smart ones have already contacted Wang Wu to get tickets. Their passenger capacity is limited, there are only so many seats a day. You guys are still chatting here. You'll be crying when the tickets are sold out."

"Speaking of which, Zhang Shi has quite a few enemies. Isn't he afraid that his high-profile actions will attract attention and lead to a complete wipeout?"

...

Inside the Dragon and Tiger Brothers' alliance, Brother Long, with a cold smile, shared Zhang Shi's information.

"This Zhang Shi is really arrogant, daring to openly start a service industry business. This is the wilderness, he really doesn't know what death means."

Xie Dong, who was standing to the side, rubbed his palms and spoke up to remind him.

“This Zhang Shi is quite capable. According to our scouts, Bell was killed by him not long ago and his fate is still unknown. If we are to take action, we need to plan carefully.”

Brother Long nodded. "I know. I've already sent someone to buy Wang Wu's boat ticket. We're going to their headquarters to scout out the situation and find out their coordinates. When the time is right, we'll send a large army to wipe them out in one fell swoop and avenge our fallen brothers with their blood."

...

Zhang Shi was very satisfied with the survivors' reactions in the chat channel. He thought it would take some time for the news about the post station to spread, but he didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic. Before Wang Wu could even take any action, many survivors were already impatiently messaging him to ask about prices.

"It seems that the recent period of stable development has allowed most survivors to get fat again."

Zhang Shi revealed a sinister smile.

"A fatter is better, because a fatter is easier to slaughter."

Zhang Shi continued browsing the information on the regional channels, trying to understand the survivors' needs from their reactions, but unexpectedly discovered Liu Yu's request for help.

Liu Yu: I buy all kinds of medicines, spiritual plants, medicinal herbs, and antidotes in large quantities at high prices. Those interested can contact me privately.

Zhang Shi was quite curious about Liu Yu's actions, so he opened a private chat to inquire about the situation.

Zhang Shi: Liu Yu, what's the situation on your end? Are a large number of soldiers poisoned?

Liu Yu must have been watching the system panel the whole time, because he replied instantly.

Liu Yu: Brother Zhang Shi, to be honest, our alliance has just gone through a major battle. Although we ultimately won, almost all of the participants were poisoned by a special kind of fire poison. This poison can remain dormant in the body and intensify until the poisoner is seen again. Once detonated, it is certain death.

Zhang Shi frowned, somewhat disdainful of the method of poisoning.

Zhang Shi: You should have found a solution by now. Tell me what materials you need, and I'll see if I can help you.
