Yu Xiangnan never expected to return to Planet Blue six hours before the game invaded. In her previous life, despite her caution, she was ultimately killed by a scumbag's ultimate skill. In thi...
Yu Xiangnan looked up and glanced at the personal information panel that popped up automatically.
Name: Jing Nian (ID: K00)
Title: None available
Level: 14
The rules for the limited-time shop in this survival instance are exactly the same as those she has experienced before. Players need to draw lots to determine their entry order and enter the shop to purchase items in turn. Each person only has one chance to enter the shop, and the purchase time is limited to six minutes.
Now, the roles have reversed; she has transformed from a player into a shop assistant.
It's truly thought-provoking...
(I have to say, Luo Pin is a real scoundrel.)
At the same time, Luo Pin, who was frantically dodging pursuers while anxiously checking the store's surveillance footage during a special challenge, sneezed violently.
Yu Xiangnan noticed that Jing Nian was staring at her warily, but showed no sign of panic. After all, players entering the store couldn't see her personal information panel, only the bright words "Shop Assistant" above her head, so they would naturally assume she was an NPC.
In addition, the system automatically hid the card holder on her waist, making it invisible to anyone except herself.
Jing Nian gripped the weapon tightly, but to his surprise, the weapon was forcibly confiscated by the system the moment he stepped into the shop.
? ? !
She was clearly a little embarrassed, and began to wander around the store with her head down, her eyes scanning the shelves eagerly, obviously with a clear goal in mind.
But as time passed, they searched for a long time but still found nothing.
With only three minutes left of the six-minute purchase time limit, a hint of anxiety flashed across her face. Without further hesitation, she quickly went to the counter and asked Yu Xiangnan, "Hello, do you have any powerful defensive items here?"
"Defensive items?"
Yu Xiangnan paused briefly, a hint of "concern" flashing in his eyes, and deliberately sighed, saying, "We do have defensive items, but most shields come from the player's own skills. These items are rare and expensive, and there's only one in stock."
"On the second shelf on the left, in the third row, there is a five-star [Shield Generator] that can be bound to the player and cannot be stolen. This item can immediately generate an energy shield at critical moments, resisting three high-intensity attacks, second only to the precious five-star defense card."
Jing Nian nodded, thanked her, and quickly found the [Shield Generator] according to her directions. She then went back to the counter to inquire about the price.
Yu Xiangnan glanced at it and said calmly, "3000 Journey Points."
Being the first player to enter the limited-time shop among so many others proves that Jing Nian has a high level of luck. Moreover, she has already reached level fourteen, placing her among the top players, so she must have a considerable amount of Journey Points.
I'm now just a ruthless money-making machine.
Jing Nian frowned slightly, seemingly hesitant: "3000 Journey Points... is that the lowest price? Can you make it cheaper?"
Yu Xiangnan sighed softly and said slowly, "Well... the price was set a long time ago, and there's really no way to offer a discount. You're quite lucky to be the first one in, but unfortunately, there's very little time left; we only have less than two minutes left."
Her words seemed ordinary, but in reality, she was subtly putting pressure on Jing Nian between the lines.
So, are you going to buy it or not?
Anyway, there are still a bunch of bastards waiting to be killed.
A hint of hesitation and wavering flashed in Jing Nian's eyes. She subconsciously clenched her teeth, struggled internally for a moment, and finally said, "Alright then, I'll buy it."
After deducting all costs, Yu Xiangnan instantly earned 460 Journey Points.
Immediately after Jing Nian left, another player arrived.
Luo Pin's shop has a very complete selection of items, with a wide variety of props that can meet the needs of almost every player.
However, having no money left, a small number of players had no choice but to give up on making the purchase.
After serving more than fifty players, Yu Xiangnan finally couldn't hold back any longer. She yawned loudly, slumped onto the stool, propped her chin on her hand, and looked exhausted.
They said they would be open for one full day, and they really were open for one full day.
There are a total of 181 surviving players, and each player is limited to purchasing six minutes, which means a total of 1086 minutes, or 18.1 hours.
Working continuously for 18 hours straight, even Ultraman couldn't withstand it.
Luckily, there's money to be made, otherwise she would have protested.
Just as Yu Xiangnan's gaze was wandering, he suddenly caught a figure swaying into the store out of the corner of his eye.
He is a level 12 player named Zou Wenyao.
He first glanced around with disdain, muttering, "What a lousy shop this is. What valuable stuff could it possibly have? It's not even as good as the limited-time shop in the first dungeon."
Yu Xiangnan kept a close eye on his every move. He saw Zou Wenyao's gaze gradually lock onto an area with expensive props, and then he moved furtively toward it.
Just as his hand was about to touch an item worth 1500 Journey Points and intend to add it to his card album, Yu Xiangnan suddenly appeared in front of him.
She acted swiftly, grabbing Zou Wenyao's wrist tightly, bringing his theft to an abrupt halt.
"What do you want to do?"
Zou Wenyao was startled and struggled violently, while arguing, "I was just looking! What are you doing grabbing me like this? Is this how you treat your customers?!"
As he spoke, he tried to break free from Yu Xiangnan's grasp, but after several attempts, he found that he could not move at all.
What happened?!
Yu Xiangnan smirked and said sarcastically, "Just looking? Then may I ask, does looking require reaching your hand inside the counter?"
Zou Wenyao's face darkened, his teeth clenched, and in an instant, a blazing flame appeared out of thin air in his other hand.
Inside the shop, although there are rules restricting the use of weapons and items, the use of skills is unrestricted.
Seeing that Zou Wenyao was trying to attack with fire, Yu Xiangnan did not hesitate to use his extra skill "Shield".
Additional Skill 3: "Shield" (After using this skill, all skills of other players within a 5-meter radius centered on the player will be locked and cannot be used. Effective duration: 2 minutes, cooldown: 5 days)
The flames in Zou Wenyao's hand, which had been raging fiercely, suddenly went out the moment Yu Xiangnan activated the "Shielding" skill.
His eyes widened instantly, his face filled with shock and disbelief.
The fire... is out?
Wait, the skill can definitely be used!
Unwilling to give up, he tried to rekindle the flame, but this time only a tiny flame appeared and went out with a "poof" before it could take shape.
