Chapter 59 Abundant Supplies, Battery Depleted

With the remaining oranges, Ji Xinghan wanted to experiment with making other things!

She organized the supplies; these beaten oranges had brought her quite a bit of supplies. As she organized the supplies, she said to Jin Baiwan, "Alright, Baiwan, here's some ice and a plastic cup for you. You can continue trading!"

She worked non-stop for more than three hours and was exhausted.

Jian Lin and the other two were in a better position. With more people around, they could take occasional breaks, so they were still able to hold on.

Ji Xinghan organized the supplies, while Jin Baiwan and the other three continued their efforts.

In this transaction, in addition to 440 bottles of water and 440 plastics, she also obtained 300 pieces of iron, 420 pieces of glass, 370 pieces of rubber, 110 aluminum sheets, 120 copper sheets, 20 fire crystals, 13 crystal stones, 8 wood crystals, 4 gold crystals, 38 fire sands, and so on.

In addition, there is a set of ice cube trays, a set of popsicle molds, a manual whisk, 5 stainless steel bowls, 500g of tomatoes, 1000g of strawberries, 5 peaches, etc.

With more and more supplies, her supply boxes were no longer enough.

She could only stack the supply boxes in the RV, which took up a lot of space.

She had already used some of the water and plastic she had obtained, and she only had 200 bottles of mineral water and a lot of plastic left.

It was two hours later when she finished packing.

By 8 p.m., Jin Baiwan's "Bangda Fresh Oranges" had also sold out.

He has a big appetite and left more than 100 for himself. If he wasn't worried about them going bad, he would have left even more.

Jin Baiwan wanted to give half of the acquired supplies to Ji Xinghan, but Ji Xinghan stopped him, only asking him to pay for the cost of the ice and plastic cups.

Jin Baiwan received only half of the supplies, and even if he divided them up, he wouldn't get much more.

Nevertheless, Jin Baiwan still sent 150 bottles of mineral water, 100 plastics, 80 glass, 80 rubbers, 20 aluminum sheets, 20 copper sheets, and 10 fire crystals.

After making a fortune, Jin Baiwan immediately upgraded his RV, which aroused the envy of Jian Lin and the others.

Jian Lin, Song Zhuo, and Ge Xiaochuan were a great help. Ji Xinghan and Jin Baiwan discussed it and each gave them supplies such as glass and rubber so that they could also upgrade their RVs.

Now, all five of them have a motorhome.

Ji Xinghan gave each of them five bottles of fresh orange juice, which they could put in her refrigerator first.

Jian Lin and the others were overjoyed.

Ji Xinghan checked her supplies and found they were as follows:

350 sheet metal, 143 iron blocks, 400 rubber, 73 batteries, 451 glass, 115 aluminum sheets, 127 copper sheets, 34 wooden planks, 30 twigs, 30 leaves

490 Plastic, 29 Fire Crystals, 19 Crystal Stones, 1 Ice Crystal, 8 Wood Crystals, 4 Gold Crystals, 2 Earth Crystals, 11 Space Crystals, 41 Fire Sand, 3 Anti-inflammatory Needles, 2 Healing Bandages, 4 Bottles of Antidiarrheal Capsules, 1 Iron Axe Blueprint, 1 Stove Blueprint, 1 Toilet Blueprint, 1 Intermediate Condenser Blueprint, 7 Peaches, 7 Cotton Cloths, 60 Oranges, 52 Potatoes, 1 Set of Ice Cube Molds, 1 Set of Popsicle Molds, 1 Manual Egg Beater, 5 Stainless Steel Bowls, 500g Mung Beans, 1000g Strawberries…

Ji Xinghan thought about it for a moment and realized that there was no need to worry about materials such as sheet metal, rubber, glass, and planks. He could gather enough by simply chopping down some wood.

However, there are still many resources needed to upgrade the vehicle, such as various crystals, batteries, etc.

These items are quite rare and difficult to trade!

We must keep working hard!

Fortunately, there are still almost two days left!

Ji Xinghan looked at the sky outside. It was almost six o'clock, and the sunset was beautiful.

She opened the car door, and immediately, a wave of heat hit her.

It's even hotter now!

She glanced down at her watch; the temperature was 39°C!

No wonder it's so hot!

Players are suffering greatly in the chat channels:

"It's so hot! It's so hot! How can it still be so hot at this hour?"

"Wow, it's 42 degrees Celsius here!"

"It's 38 degrees Celsius here, thank goodness I have a van!"

"Oh no, why is the battery draining so fast? I've already added two batteries this afternoon. Could it be because the temperature is too high and the air conditioner is consuming more power?"

"Same here. The temperature is high, and the air conditioner consumes a lot of electricity. I have to add a battery every now and then. My battery won't last much longer!"

"Looking to buy batteries!"

"Same here! My van's battery is dead. Not only will it not start, but the air conditioning and ventilation are also gone. It's so hot!"

The players finally noticed the anomaly.

The battery is draining too fast!

When the temperature was normal, they could leave their cars on the road and go out exploring on their own.

But now the weather is too hot, so they can only hide in the car and turn on the air conditioning, which causes the power consumption to skyrocket, and they use up a battery in no time.

Some observant people noticed this early on and stockpiled batteries. Many people are only now realizing that they can no longer find batteries.

In just a short while, a significant number of players turned off their devices.

Unfortunately, everyone was panicking, fearing there wouldn't be enough batteries, so no one dared to sell them.

More and more players are suffering from heatstroke, and the chat channel is filled with panic.

The number of people is slowly decreasing.

In the Survival Invincible Team group, Ge Xiaochuan suddenly said, "More than 5,000 people have died in our area now."

Song Zhuo: "Not many people will die today, but the number will explode tomorrow!"

Jian Lin: "Yes, the van ran out of power and couldn't move. There was no air conditioning, so they had to stay outside. It's going to be quite hot tonight!"

Song Zhuo sighed, "The game is finally about to start reaping players' lives!"

Ji Xinghan glanced at the chat channel filled with complaints and shook his head inwardly. Dead people are bound to die; no one can stop them.

There's still a glimmer of hope: the free supply box at 6 PM.

At 6 o'clock sharp, the game will prompt:

[The gift box has been delivered, please open it!]

Ji Xinghan spotted a supply crate outside the car. She quickly opened the door and used her longsword to knock it open.

[Open the ordinary wooden crate!]

[Received Summer Short-Sleeve and Shorts Set x1, White Linen Dress x1, Sun Hat x1!]

Ji Xinghan took them out one by one:

[Short-sleeved and short-short cool outfit: A clean and neat set, perfect for summer. It provides a cooling effect and may help prevent heatstroke!]

[Green cotton-linen dress: Refreshing and beautiful, it provides a cooling sensation and may help prevent heatstroke!]

[Sun hat: The sun hat has a small electric fan on it, which provides a cooling effect and helps prevent heatstroke.]

Ji Xinghan glanced through it and nodded secretly. The game really does give everyone what they need.

These cooling supplies are just what we need right now.

The item descriptions in the game are full of hidden clues; these are definitely not ordinary clothes.

Ji Xinghan immediately changed into a white cotton-linen dress and picked up a sun hat.

The sun hat is beige with a wide brim and a small fan on the front. When you turn it on, the fan starts spinning and brings a cool breeze.

Ji Xinghan put it on her head and walked around after getting out of the car.

A cool breeze seemed to linger around her, making her feel much more comfortable.

She got back to her car, opened the chat channel, and wanted to see what everyone had gotten.

The chat channel was bustling with activity; it finally came alive!

"Haha, I got 4 batteries from the box, that'll last me another day!"

"I got a bottle of cold drink, which is supposed to relieve mild heatstroke, but I have moderate heatstroke! I'm going to die!"

"I got a battery, are you kidding me? What can a battery do?"

"I finally got the Fire Sand! Hahaha, I can upgrade to a van now! Hahaha, heaven is on my side..."

"Why did you give me a hammer? What would I do with a hammer? What do you think I can do with it, huh?!"

"A cold, smelly mung bean soup? Is this lousy game trying to poison me?"

Ji Xinghan stared intently at the chat channel.

She wanted to see what Ji Wenhua had obtained.

However, after being robbed twice, Ji Wenhua seemed to have become smarter. He started to keep a low profile and remained silent.

Ji Xinghan sneered. Regardless of whether Ji Wenhua was low-key or not, this sneak attack was prepared for him!

She opened her personal panel and launched a sneak attack on Ji Wenhua.
