The pattern on the supply box in Chapter 6

Meng Qingyin circled the scooter three times but couldn't find a place to insert the chip.

Forget about that for now, let's get our supplies ready and head out!

Meng Qingyin thought she would temporarily put the smart chip in the camouflage bag's inner compartment, but when she put it in the bag, the chip was too small and she couldn't hold it properly. It fell directly onto the truck bed and disappeared.

The next moment, a flash of golden light appeared on the scooter.

The smart chip is now integrated into the enhanced version of the hoverboard. Upgrade your hoverboard for unexpected new features!

An unexpected feature? What could it be?

Meng Qingyin felt a little expectant.

But now she really has to set off.

There were six empty boxes scattered on the ground, along with a lot of other supplies.

Meng Qingyin thought that she might as well use the empty boxes as storage boxes, which would be perfect for putting in the truck bed and would also prevent the supplies from being too messy.

As her hand touched the crate, a notification sounded: [Disassembling this supply crate will yield 2 wooden planks. Disassemble now?]

She thought for a moment, then kept two empty boxes as storage boxes and dismantled the remaining four, obtaining [8 wooden planks].

The plank was quite long, and it stretched out a lot in the truck bed. She took out a bottle of mineral water from her backpack and put the plank in.

He put the rest of the supplies into the storage box, took off his camouflage bag and put it on the truck bed, and rode the scooter on the road with ease.

On the way, she would glance at the [Highway Survival Management Group] every now and then, afraid of missing any important information.

But those people were just chatting and observing the players' various embarrassing situations; they didn't say anything else.

Meng Qingyin pedaled the pedals so hard they were almost smoking.

The [Double Harvest Card] and [Supply Box Card] have limited time, especially the [Double Harvest Card], which only has a little over two hours left. She needs to hurry and get as many supply boxes as possible!

When she got thirsty, she took out a bottle of mineral water and gulped it down. She didn't throw away the empty bottle, feeling that she might need it someday.

After finishing the drink, he continued to kick the pedal.

This state of high energy lasted until noon.

[Ding-dong! 007 System Reminder: Lunchtime is from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM. Please remember to balance work and rest, and play the game reasonably. Supply boxes will not spawn during lunchtime.]

[New Player Bonus Event: Players are encouraged to share photos of their lunches in the chat area. The more elaborate the lunch, the more food points you'll receive. At the end of lunchtime, the top ten players with the most food points will receive a surprise gift, and other players who shared photos of their lunches will also receive small gifts!]

The two sudden announcements caught Meng Qingyin completely off guard.

The Double Harvest Card has expired automatically, but the Box Suction Card still has one hour left!

She had originally planned to pedal for another hour, then open the box for a meal and take a short rest.

But the chests don't refresh between 12:00 and 13:00!

So her remaining hour just vanished like that?

This is a bug! A bug!

Meng Qingyin angrily opened the light screen, wanting to report this bug.

Unexpectedly, I discovered a buff status at the bottom of my [Personal Information]: Box Absorption Card (Remaining time 1:00:00, click to freeze).

It wasn't a bug after all.

Meng Qingyin immediately clicked the freeze button and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that time had stopped passing.

Under the blazing sun, the temperature had already reached 27 degrees Celsius.

Meng Qingyin had long since taken off the equipment she wore when she first entered the game.

At that moment, she was only wearing a light gray fitted sportswear outfit and a white sun hat.

Sweat rolled down his cheeks, and his throat was so dry it felt like it was on fire.

Meng Qingyin reached into the storage box behind her and pulled out a bottle of mineral water. She drank it all in one gulp, and her lips, mouth, and throat became moist again.

My stomach was rumbling too.

Meng Qingyin glanced back at the truck bed. In addition to the two storage boxes, she had obtained four more supply boxes, which were still made of wood.

She took out her good friend, the stun gun, and prepared to open the box.

Suddenly, a soft "ding-dong" sounded on the wristwatch; there was another message in the [Highway Survival Management Group].

Meng Qingyin clicked to view.

[White Fox: I'm so anxious! Haven't they realized it yet? There's a pattern to whether there's danger inside the supply crates!]

[Honey Badger: What's the rush?]

[White Fox: This is the first time I've seen such a stupid group. I'm so worried!]

[Hyena: You're such a busybody.]

[White Fox: Never mind, I'm not watching anymore, you guys watch.]

With the departure of [White Fox], the management group fell silent once again.

Meng Qingyin, however, grasped the key information.

What is the pattern?

She examined the four new boxes closely; they were all made of wood, and their size, color, and even the wood grain were exactly the same.

There is absolutely no difference in appearance.

What could be the pattern?

Meng Qingyin was not giving up. If she could discover the pattern, she wouldn't have to be so nervous when opening boxes in the future.

She examined the two supply boxes that were being used as storage boxes more closely, and to her surprise, she found something different!

To be precise, only one supply box was different. On the right side of the box, on the wooden board, there was a very faint pattern: a small snake flicking its tongue.

And this supply box is the one from which she got the Silver Ring Serpent!

She was so sure because the supply box was so full that she simply moved it to the truck bed to use as a storage box.

Could this be the pattern the white fox was talking about?

The reason why this pattern has not been discovered until now is largely due to the location of the pattern being engraved.

The design was not engraved on the lid of the supply box, but on the right corner of the box. Moreover, the design was very small and the mark was faint.

For players, their first reaction to seeing a supply crate is excitement; they don't even think about examining the crate itself.

Furthermore, after opening the supply box, they directly disassembled it to obtain wooden planks, and the pattern disappeared accordingly.

Even if someone else uses supply boxes as storage boxes like her, they wouldn't put too much thought into it.

Even she only checked the supply crates after seeing the message in the survival group. Other players were too busy searching for crates and moving forward to have any time to check the storage crates.

Of course, there is another possibility.

Some players discovered this pattern, but they didn't say anything.

After all, with Chen Leying as a cautionary tale, who would want to do something that's thankless and exhausting?

Therefore, [White Fox] concluded that no player had discovered this pattern, hence the complaint in the group.

That's perfect for her.

Upon this discovery, Meng Qingyin examined the four new supply boxes more closely. The right side of the box was spotless, without a single trace, not even a scratch.

Afraid of missing any patterns, Meng Qingyin carefully examined the entire supply box, not even missing the bottom.

There is still no pattern.

She couldn't quite tell whether she felt disappointed or something else.

After all, danger also means high reward.

With a stun gun in hand, she had no need to worry about snakes or rats jumping out of the box.

There is no danger now, which means there is unlikely to be much gain.

With that in mind, she opened the first supply box.
