Chapter 8: Survival Day 8, Dover, did you have a nightmare?

Chapter 8: The Eighth Day of Survival

Doflamingo was able to say such words because he had his own confidence.

Although he was young, he had done quite well in maritime smuggling because he had been a bad boy since childhood and had the ability to do so. He also plundered a lot of wealth.

If someone else came, they might be hesitant and not dare to join directly before starting to plunder their boss's money - but Wendy would not do that.

Wendy felt that her friends' things were public, and if she rounded it up, they were hers.

Similarly, if it were someone else, someone with Doflamingo's personality would not allow anyone to touch his wealth without making any contribution and knowing his background. He might even think that the person was greedy and had no respect for him - but this is Wendy. Her greedy behavior has a reasonable background explanation, and the act of offering her heart is enough to prove her loyalty.

So Wendy walked around the Don Quixote family's treasure house in a swaggering manner, picking and choosing.

Although the Don't Starve system does not have a money system and does not allow the buying and selling of materials, it does support freeloading - that is, if someone else's things are dropped on the ground, you can pick them up and make them yours.

Similarly, friends’ things and resources can be shared freely.

Wendy picked up a lot of gems and classified them.

She didn't stuff all of this into the parcel. Space in the parcel compartment was limited, and it was only used for daily necessities. Rare materials like these, used to make rare props, naturally couldn't be used to take up space.

"The rubies are to be used to make dragon-scale furnaces... but I don't know where the dragon flies in this world are. The other gems can be used to make wands, but that requires unlocking magic technology first..."

Wendy muttered to herself as she sorted the gems of various colors into their respective categories. She then used the planks from the package to create a wooden box and stuffed the gems inside. She looked at everything with satisfaction and nodded. Great! Much cleaner!

Doflamingo watched as she used several boxes to collect all the treasures in the warehouse, and he gained a new understanding of Wendy's abilities - they would be very useful for logistics...

He walked over, opened it, and found that the structure was the same as the backpack Wendy had given him before, with each item occupying only one slot. Although there was a maximum capacity, the space inside the box was much larger than the box itself.

The Famine Fruit?... It seems the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia doesn't cover all the magical abilities. Maybe this is something different from the existing Devil Fruit system. I just don't know how Wendy got this fruit...

Doflamingo thought of this, closed the box, and turned to look at the blonde girl beside him.

After collecting the gems, she seemed uninterested in anything else. She now stood beside a pile of gold coins. She picked up a handful of them, stared at them for a moment, and then put them into her bag. Then, with a frown on her face, she scattered all the coins on the ground.

Although she suddenly possessed a lot of wealth and seemed to like these things, she did not show any greed at all. Instead, she acted as if these things were her due.

It's like someone is destined to bring wealth to her, but she still has to be picky about it.

Of course, Doflamingo didn't dislike Wendy for that. On the contrary, he was quite pleased with her and even asked, "Are you missing anything? The bones you want?"

"Bone fragments aren't that scarce right now, so there's no need to rush." ​​Wendy thought for a moment, a puzzled expression on her face that seemed a bit innocent. "If you want them, you can always get them, right?"

Wendy's original intention was to just find a grave site and dig it up.

Doflamingo’s understanding: That’s right, kill now, right?

Then, Doflamingo smiled slowly: "Yes, anytime... If you need it, just tell Vergo if I'm not here."

The two people's train of thought were completely different, but they reached an agreement and both sides were very satisfied.

Wendy continued to dig through the Don Quixote family's treasury. She was unhappy that processed gold products like coins couldn't be used directly as gold ore. Fortunately, there were some large pieces of pure gold that could be smashed with a pickaxe and used as gold nuggets.

Doflamingo only watched for a moment before leaving. After a brief observation, he had already considered Wendy his own family. Although he plundered wealth, he didn't value it that much and wasn't stingy, so he simply left Wendy here.

Wendy didn't think there was anything special about this behavior - when her friends went out to work, she would clean up the house. Isn't this the basic operation of the Don't Starve game?

Doflamingo's activities were all about piracy, and because of years of anger, he had a plan of revenge in his heart, which he slowly implemented. The first step was to recruit soldiers and accumulate initial capital.

Several of his cadres were trained in this way and are loyal to him. Of course, their character is questionable.

There is a reason why Wendy can get along harmoniously with them - as a game player, her quality is not much higher than the protagonist in the RPG game.

Doflamingo's senior officers had a say in this matter. Because in Wendy's mind, Doflamingo was her teammate, so rounding off Doflamingo's subordinates were also her subordinates, and their things were also hers.

When she was short of materials, she would just run to these people's homes and smash them, then happily leave with a bunch of materials.

When Doflamingo received the officers' subtle complaints, he called Wendy over and gave her a rare order: "Tell them if you need anything, don't just take it directly."

Wendy was stunned and looked a little shocked. "What? Is there something I can't just take?"

Wendy's question was literal. In her mind, anything she could actively pick up and put in her backpack was a resource she could use. Unusable items would be marked as useless by the system, and couldn't be put into her backpack! So, anything she could take away must be player-accessible!

Even someone as inherently evil as Doflamingo couldn't help but remain silent for a moment when he heard Wendy's puzzled question, inwardly lamenting that this little girl was truly a born robber. She had an innocent and delicate face, but underneath she was a completely predatory person.

But he didn't hate her personality.

He laughed a few times, reached out and stroked Wendy's fluffy, soft blonde hair, and said, "As long as you are capable enough and stand high enough, there is nothing in this world that you can't get. But you can't make Vergo and the others give it to you willingly right now."

Wendy nodded, not quite understanding, but still looking confused. "So, do I have to fight and defeat Vergo and the others before they'll be willing to give it to me?"

Doflamingo propped his head up with one hand and looked down at her. His sunglasses hid his scrutinizing gaze, revealing little emotion. "If I say yes, what are you going to do?"

Wendy thought about this question seriously.

Her combat power is actually very low, and Abigail is the strongest. However, Abigail is an area attack, and although her combat power is strong, her damage is limited to a single target, and she is also a fragile...

Early game development was fine, but once you encountered a boss, you could only rely on positioning and scraping, or using strategies like diverting the blame. For example, using the autumn boss to chop down trees to trigger the emergence of tree spirits, killing the tentacles of the winter boss, and occasionally deliberately raising a spider queen to fight the boss...

It was not realistic to ask her to fight against those with higher combat power. She also observed the health bars of the Flamingo cadres.

Even if you use potions to drug Abigail, the effects of the potions cannot be stacked. If the opponent's damage is high enough, it will be dangerous.

"No, I can't cultivate my fighting ability." Wendy sighed regretfully, but her tone was still puzzled. "But Dover, you are my teammate. I can take it from you, right?"

...What a little bandit who knows how to judge the situation and demands endlessly! — Doflamingo marveled in his heart.

He could say at this time, "What if I don't give it to you?" and then teach Wendy how to treat him as a leader and demand loyalty and respect from her... But if he did that, Wendy would be no different from everyone else.

Therefore, he indulged the other party once again, a low laugh coming from his throat, and the corners of his mouth raised in a grin made his smile seem even more evil: "Ah, that's right."

Wendy was happy to get the answer: "Then I'll go find Virgo and ask him to bring back the walrus tusks! It's winter now and the walruses are out. I walk too slowly and I need a walking cane!"

A walking stick requires one walrus tusk, two gold nuggets, and four tree branches. The branches are the basic material and easy to make, and Wendy has plenty of gold nuggets from looting the Don Quixote family's treasury. Walrus tusks are more difficult to make.

When Virgo heard this request, he looked at the abstract walrus picture Wendy had drawn for him and remained silent.

Why does this walrus look so much like Torrepol... Could it be that Wendy found out about Torrepol complaining to Dover?

Virgo was thinking about how to resolve the conflict among his colleagues, but Wendy didn't even notice the existence of conflict.

She was in her room, leaning against Abigail's urn.

Wendy only needs to ensure that her 3D data is normal, so she doesn't need to sleep. At night, people will automatically lose sanity, and they can regain sanity by leaning on Abigail's urn.

This is a low-cost San-restoring item that only she can create. Simply placing four petals in an urn is enough, making it a very cost-effective way to restore San.

Although wearing a wreath can restore sanity, it is slow. The Don't Starve system means she can't stay in an environment that is too cold or too hot, otherwise she will lose both sanity and health. This requires her to rely on some effective hats to adjust. There is only one place to wear it on the head, and it cannot be stacked.

Since there were enough resources now and she didn't need to work at night, Wendy just released Abigail with peace of mind, and then started to walk around the urn boredly to pass the time.

Fortunately, no one approached easily at this time, otherwise a few timid people who were afraid of ghosts would be scared to death - after all, the scene of a pale blonde little girl followed by a white ghost, and the man and the ghost happily running around the urn was still too advanced.

"So boring... Abigail." Wendy looked at the white ghost that was looking at her with its big cute eyes. After her san value was restored, she couldn't sit still and decided to go back to work - she hadn't sorted out the latest batch of supplies robbed by the Don Quixote family yet!

She originally wanted to rush over, but then she remembered what Doflamingo had said to her before and decided to be a considerate friend and ask him before taking it. After all, if he refused, it meant that this friend had become stingy, and she needed to think about finding another one.

After making up her mind, Wendy ran towards Doflamingo.

But when she opened the door, she saw the blond young man sitting on the chair, sweating and panting, his expression looked very ferocious, and the negative emotions overflowing almost filled the entire room.

She was stunned for a moment, then ran over to stand beside him, put her hands on his arms, and looked at him with wide eyes: "Dover, are you having a nightmare?"

Wendy's perspective: Don't Starve Player's Stockpiling Guide [Shy]

Wendy has no shortage of resources at Don Quixote's house. She can get any turkey she wants, since they specialize in smuggling.

Actually, Dover is really good to his own people. He even allowed Baby5 to cry while hugging his legs when the family was out fighting for territory... But at the same time, when it comes to sacrificing you for his own goals, he will not hesitate and will not be too emotional. [Sunglasses]
