6 Newbie Protection Period - Day 3

◎You are so sexy◎

A new day is always something to look forward to. Yan Lan called the sign-in system while eating breakfast.

"System, sign in!"

[Please send Hong Shixian's classic lines to your recent chat friend.]

When she heard the name Hong Shixian, she let out a hissing sigh and showed an indescribable expression.

The annoying face from the TV show popped up in my mind unconsciously, and I shuddered suddenly. This task was indeed a bit awkward to complete.

But thinking of the generous reward after the mission, she howled and cheered herself up.

She only has two good friends, Yuan Zhou and Shi Yuanyuan. Shi Yuanyuan had just chatted with her yesterday and is the target of today's mission.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally sent a message with her eyes closed.

Shi Yuanyuan still wakes up very early. Since entering the survival game, he has changed from a noble young man to a hard-working model worker. He gets up earlier than the chickens and sleeps later than the dogs every day.

He'd been exposed to the elements these past few days, his once delicate skin had become rough, and from the added stress, a large, red, swollen pimple had just appeared on his chin. He crouched down, pouting in dissatisfaction at the face in the rearview mirror of his three-wheeled motorcycle.

How great it would be if his cousin was there. His cousin was smart, capable, and resourceful, and could always make a good living no matter how difficult the situation was. His cousin was also extremely handsome, to the point where he would be jealous just by looking at him.

If he were here, would I still have to work so hard? I would have been carried away by him long ago!

"Oh! I don't know which district my cousin is in."

Thinking of his missing relatives, Shi Yuanyuan looked melancholy.

“Ding Dong~”

There is a message reminder.

Shi Yuanyuan opened his personal interface and his face immediately filled with smiles.

It turned out to be his benefactor Yan Lan. They were not in a relationship where they would greet each other good morning. So she must have something going on when she sent the message so early.

He clicked on it with a smile, and then walked out as if nothing had happened, but the smile on his lips was obviously much more fake.

If you don’t believe it, click in again and then exit.

It was her, but why would she say that?

He seemed to be brainwashed, and kept repeating the words,

"You're so flirty~"

"You're so flirty~"

I couldn't help but think of the word "sao" (sao) and suddenly my whole body shuddered. I even shivered in the 28-degree weather.

Yan Lan - could it be that she has taken a fancy to him and wants to flirt with him?

Although... although he has looked a little haggard recently, it is undeniable that his face is handsome, and it is his honor to be noticed by others.

But he didn't want to go down this path. As a grown man with hands and feet, how could he live a life of being kept by a woman?

Shi Yuanyuan's mind was in a mess and he was a little confused for a moment. Faced with temptation, especially the temptation from the game's largest sponsor, what should he do?

Not wanting to keep Yan Lan waiting any longer, he quickly sent a message to test her: "Yan Lan, what are you doing?"

"Oh, it's okay, I'm just posting it for fun."

Shi Yuanyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she didn't like him.

But this is still very strange. Who would send a message like "You are so sexy" to a boy?

He... he is a boy, how can you use this word to describe him? Shouldn't you say you are so handsome or you are so manly?

"Shi Yuanyuan, you're not thinking the wrong way, are you?"

Shi Yuanyuan's hands trembled violently. His dirty thoughts were guessed, and he didn't know what to say. "Ah? How could it be! Impossible, haha. Oh, I have to go to the bathroom. We'll talk later~"

After saying that, he ran away to urinate. He was afraid that Yan Lan would find out if he said a few more words.

Yan Lan raised her eyebrows, and instead of caring about the other person's mental health, she happily hummed a song while checking the sign-in reward.

"I have a little donkey that I never ride, but one day I just felt like riding it to go to market."

[Check-in successful! Obtained the "Copy" item card.]

[Copy Card: You can copy all newly acquired supplies of your friends. Valid until 8pm tonight.)]

That's like double the supplies! That's awesome!

In order not to waste time, he quickly chose the object to be copied - Shi Yuanyuan.

Although Shi Yuanyuan was unlucky and could not get any food, his level of obtaining upgrade materials was first-class, and what Yan Lan lacked most was upgrade materials.

"Shi Yuanyuan, are you there?"

"Ah!!! I'm here. What can I do for you?"

Yan Lan looked at this "you" and the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching. Why did she feel that he was weird?

But she didn't think about it too much and briefly explained her purpose: "I have a new prop card, and it will only take effect if it is bound to you. I will pay you a certain amount of compensation after the task is completed. What do you want?"

After she finished speaking, she sent the item card over. As long as the other party clicked to confirm, the card would take effect instantly.

Shi Yuanyuan looked at the three large characters "Copy Card" with a bit of disbelief. He checked again and again: "Are you really going to choose me? My luck is really bad!"

"It's okay, I believe you!"

Seeing that Yan Lan trusted him so much, Shi Yuanyuan was so moved that he couldn't help himself.

He solemnly checked the card and replied, "Don't worry, Yan Lan. I'm sure I'll be incredibly lucky today and get lots of food!"

Yan Lan's eyelids twitched, and she thought to herself that it would be better if you couldn't draw any food as usual.

After solving the prop card, Yan Lan prepared to set off. The 60 units of gasoline had been used up, so she added the remaining 60 units, which would last for another two days.

[Map: Tropical Savanna, Game Days: 3, Weather: Sunny, Temperature: 28°C (Summer), Time: 7:10 AM.]

Today is the last day of the novice period. The weather is warm and the temperature is suitable. I guess after today, the days to come will be difficult.

But it doesn't matter. At least life is happy today. Why bother worrying about tomorrow's troubles? Keep a positive attitude, and you might encounter unexpected beauty.

"I have a little donkey that I never ride.

One day I suddenly had the urge to ride to the market."

After spending a few seconds to calm herself down, Yan Lan hummed a song happily and rode her three-wheeled motorcycle forward with a clang clang clang sound.

"Yan Lan, have you heard? Jiang Tiantian and a man named Jin Buwei founded a gang called the Jin Gang! Jin Buwei is the gang leader, and Jiang Tiantian is the vice-president."

After binding the copy card with Yan Lan, Shi Yuanyuan felt that he had an obligation to report the progress in real time, so he sent one or two messages from time to time. After trying it, he found it quite interesting. No wonder he saw taxi drivers playing his chat messages on hands-free mode every day.

Yan Lan couldn't help but chuckle: "Jin Da Gang?"

Shi Yuanyuan: "Yes, the Jin Gang. Jin comes from Jin Buwei's last name, and Gang is the purpose of their team, helping each other."

Mutual help? This word has nothing to do with Jiang Tiantian.

Sure enough, Shi Yuanyuan sent another message: "You need to pay an entrance fee to join their team, and each person needs 10 upgrade materials! The two of them are bragging about it in the group, and I think several players have already been recruited."

Yan Lan: "Yeah."

Shi Yuanyuan: "Just huh? Aren't you afraid they'll use other players' materials to upgrade early and steal your title as the leading car owner?"

Yan Lan felt a little embarrassed when she heard this title, but she joked nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's just a name."

They won't upgrade in advance. Not to mention that electronic components are very rare, players who have joined the club are reluctant to give them up. Even if someone is willing to hand them over, there will be uneven distribution of the spoils.

Jiang Tiantian and Jin Buwei are both greedy people, and I think there will be some trouble. When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits, and who will win or lose is still uncertain!

Seeing Yan Lan so open-minded, Shi Yuanyuan gave up the urge to continue persuading her.

He clenched his grip and sped up, hoping to find the treasure chest sooner and upgrade before Jin Dabang.

"Yan Lan, I found a treasure chest!"

"Yan Lan, I found another treasure chest!"

In one morning, Shi Yuanyuan actually found two treasure chests, which was his highest record ever.

Yan Lan clearly sensed his excitement and happily replied, "Yeah, I just found two too."

Shi Yuanyuan opened the treasure chest and the copy card took effect. Yan Lan received the same amount of supplies: metal × 3, glass × 3, rubber × 3, and electronic components × 3.

I have to say that Shi Yuanyuan was very lucky, as he actually found three electronic components at once.

Shi Yuanyuan: "Ahhhh! My luck is so bad, there's not even any food!"

Yan Lan handed over two bottles of mineral water, a meat bun, and a purple rice bread, and said, "It's okay, I just opened the price and I'll give you half."

Shi Yuanyuan: "Oh my god! You're so lucky to have so much food and water!"

Yan Lan: “…”

Well, if you are lucky, you won’t get only one electronic component from two treasure chests.

She copied three of Shi Yuanyuan's and just opened one herself. Together with the previous four, she had a total of eight electronic components. The other materials were similar, and she was only one step away from upgrading.

But before that, Yan Lan still had a question: "Why haven't you upgraded yet?"

As far as she knew, Shi Yuanyuan had just upgraded to level 2 of the three-wheeled motorcycle.

Shi Yuanyuan understood immediately, and he complained bitterly the moment this was mentioned: "If I hadn't traded with others, I should have been able to level up by now. Now I'm out of food and water, so I had to trade what I had. And then one player cheated me out of 10 pieces of metal! Another player cheated me out of 20 pieces of glass!"

"ah?"

"Now that I've found you, I'm not deceived by them anymore."

Yan Lan: "Then if you need food again in the future, you can come to me. The price is fair."

Shi Yuanyuan: "Okay~ By the way, how many materials do you need to upgrade?"

For some reason, he felt a sense of urgency as if he was being chased.

"10 glass/rubber, 2 electronic components."

Shi Yuanyuan: "You're almost there, but I'm still a long way off! Can you give me a few rolls of toilet paper?"

Yan Lan did 5 rolls while having breakfast in the morning. When she saw this question, she paused for a moment and turned away without asking any questions.

After Shi Yuanyuan received the message, he said "wait a moment" and there was no response until Yan Lan heard the sound of more supplies coming out of the backpack.

[Copy successfully, obtain electronic components x3.]

[Copy successfully, obtain glass x 10, obtain rubber x 10.]

After two consecutive reminders, he actually obtained three electronic components at once. Could it be that Shi Yuanyuan did something again?

Before she could ask, he hurriedly sent a message: "Yan Lan, have you received the supplies?"

"Got it. How did you get it?"

"It actually works! Then I'm going to give it back to someone else."

Yan Lan had a guess: "Are they willing to lend you?"

Shi Yuanyuan: "These buddies have been struggling for the past two days. We are in trouble together. I just borrowed it temporarily, but I gave them two rolls of toilet paper each as a reward. They are quite willing to do so."

He gave away two out of five rolls and kept the remaining one for himself. He could use up one roll of toilet paper in a week, so the consumption was quite high, so he had to save some.

Shi Yuanyuan had his own way of survival, and Yan Lan didn't ask too much, but it did take some effort for him to actively ask others for help in order to upgrade. She remembered his kindness and planned to support him more in the future within her ability.

Now that we have enough materials, we can upgrade.
