Chapter 270: Exclusively published on Jinjiang Literature City, featuring top-quality polar seafood...
[Limited-Time Holiday Flash Sale]:
[Large City Protective Shield: Originally priced at 2 billion points, now 40% off for a limited time.]
[Invisibility Shield: Originally priced at 1 billion points, now 40% off for a limited time.]
[Thermostatic Protective Shield: Originally priced at 1.5 billion points, now 50% off for a limited time.]
[Military spaceship XM-JF1205, original price 7 billion points, limited-time discount of 40%.]
Just like last year, there are still four items, each with a very high price.
However, once you look at the details of each product, you'll see that they are all good items, especially the first three.
Lu Xuan has several small city protective shields. In addition to the ones he bought during last year's flash sale, he also bought them directly from the system store at the original price. He placed them on islands 2 and 3 to prevent natural disasters from affecting the greenhouses, coconut trees, and coconut crabs on the islands.
However, although the large protective shield was unlocked in the store, it was too expensive and not really necessary, so I didn't buy it.
This time they're offering it at a 60% discount, so it's worth buying one.
The other two types of protective shields also have very appealing features.
The former can be used in conjunction with the city's protective shield to protect against danger while concealing everything inside the shield. The latter can keep the inside of the shield at a constant temperature, which can be controlled and adjusted from 0 to 50 degrees Celsius.
The hidden island inexplicably reminded Lu Xuan of the fairy islands that often appeared in ancient legends. Isn't it a bit like an island that can't be found but does exist?
While evaluating the situation in his mind, Lu Xuan smoothly opened the purchase page.
He currently has 50% off coupons and 70% off coupons left.
Last year he bought three items, but this time, Lu Xuan chose to buy them all!
To save more points, the most expensive items should naturally be offered with the biggest discounts.
Military spaceship, flash sale price plus 50% off coupon, 2.1 billion;
Large-scale urban protective shield, flash sale price plus 30% off coupon, 840 million;
The other two items, sold at a flash sale price, totaled 1.35 billion yuan, bringing the total value of the four items to 4.29 billion yuan.
Including the points he won in the lottery not long ago, Lu Xuan spent more than 5 billion in just one night.
After the points were deducted, the account balance, which was not far from 400, shrank to just over 30 billion.
Lu Xuan paused for a moment, his expression betraying his as he spent so many points for the first time.
The viewers in the live stream were even more surprised.
[Fifty billion points, five hundred billion star coins, and the streamer seems to have only spent five hundred yuan, wow!]
I feel terrible even if I spend 500 yuan a day, sob sob.
I consider myself a big spender, but the most I've ever spent in a single day is 100 million. 5 billion? I can't even imagine it.
Why did the streamer buy that military spaceship? I remember he didn't like it when he saw it in the system store.
Lu Xuan raised an eyebrow. "Naturally, it's because it's cheap enough."
The spaceship, originally priced at 7 billion, can be acquired for less than a third of the price. Even if the model and performance don't meet his requirements, he can resell it later and make billions in profit. Isn't that a great deal?
No matter how high his net worth is, it doesn't mean he doesn't care about billions in profits.
Why didn't I think of that?!
[Holy crap! The streamer might not want a military spaceship, but mercenaries and even space pirates would definitely want one. He could easily sell it on a black market auction for a much higher price than the original. The streamer's going to make a killing this time!]
[This assumes the streamer has a chance to deliver the spaceship to the auction house.]
[Isn't this obvious? Given the streamer's current popularity, it won't be long.]
Upon seeing this sentence, Lu Xuan's eyes flickered slightly, and his expression became somewhat meaningful.
·
Early the next morning, Lu Xuan used his invisibility and constant temperature protection shield.
To verify the effect, Li Tuo, Chen Rong, and several others deliberately drove their kayaks away from the island, while also aiming several drones at the island from different angles.
When the stealth shield was activated, the once lush green island instantly disappeared from the group's sight. The villagers who remained on the island also witnessed that all that remained in front of the drone's camera was a vast sea, as if the pirates had never existed in the first place.
"Hiss—!" Old Master Zhang gasped, his eyes widening. "This is unbelievable!"
Li Tie, Wu Cheng, and the others were equally shocked, and many of the surrounding villagers were also speechless for a long time.
"Has the island really disappeared?"
Zhang Chengming contacted Chen Rong and the others who were off the island and asked, "Are you sure you can't see the island from outside? If you bring the kayak back, can you get back to the island?"
Chen Rong immediately said, "I'll give it a try."
The people on the island continued to stare intently at the drone's camera, and sure enough, they saw Chen Rong tentatively stick his foot out towards the side of the island where the cruise ship was docked.
Soon, the villagers on the island saw that Chen Rong was actually standing on the sea!
"Wow! Uncle Chen can actually stand on the water, that's amazing!" someone in the group of children exclaimed excitedly.
Lu Chen, Zhang Dafu, and the others looked at Chen Rong with envy in their eyes.
They also want to stand on the water, it looks so interesting!
However, Li Tie and the others realized that Chen Rong was not actually standing on the water, but on the ground of a hidden island.
"So, the invisibility shield only hides the island from the naked eye, it doesn't actually make the island disappear?" Lei Yan looked at Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan nodded, "It's not just that it disappears to the naked eye, it also can't be detected by radar." This way, it can minimize the chance of someone deliberately searching for it based on the coordinates.
Zhang Chengming asked, "What if someone accidentally bumps into it while passing by? Wouldn't that reveal the island?"
This sounds a bit like a double-edged sword?
Just then, Ye Ping, one of the women, exclaimed, "Look, Chen Rong's head has disappeared!"
"No, look over there, isn't that Chen Rong!" Wu Yinyin pointed directly in front of them.
Grandpa Zhang, Li Tie, and the others were all startled when they saw Chen Rong's head appear suspended in mid-air at the edge of the island.
Wu Cheng quickly realized what was happening and said, "It must be that Chen Rong's head entered the protective shield's range, so from the outside it looks like his head has disappeared, but from inside the shield, you can only see his head."
As he spoke, Chen Rong took two more steps forward, and sure enough, the bodies behind him appeared in front of them, while Chen Rong disappeared from view of the camera.
The villagers were quite surprised.
"This looks rather interesting."
Lu Xuan said, "The invisibility shield doesn't really disappear, so there is indeed a possibility of someone accidentally breaking in. But just like we would still be scared if we knew what was going to happen in advance, others would be even more panicked if they encountered the same situation without any warning."
Even if they aren't scared half to death on the spot, there's a high chance they'll be so frightened that they'll run away quickly.
Even if someone were to boldly set foot on the island like Chen Rong, with surveillance cameras everywhere and ten-meter-high walls, what trouble could possibly arise?
Once the others understood this, they felt relieved.
Then he excitedly ran out and started playing in and out of the protective shield, just like Chen Rong.
From the perspective of the island's villagers and the viewers in the live stream, it's a series of heads disappearing and reappearing, creating a scene that's both unsettling and strangely intriguing, making viewers eager to experience it for themselves.
Among them, Lu Chen and other children were the most enthusiastic and went completely crazy with fun.
The older villagers were more composed. They tried it a couple of times out of curiosity and then stopped, continuing to wait and see how effective the temperature-controlled protective shield was.
After activating the constant temperature protective shield, Lu Xuan specially adjusted the temperature to zero degrees to make the effect more obvious to everyone.
Everyone was wearing bio-suits, and while they didn't feel cold on their bodies, their exposed faces and hands felt noticeably chilly.
Li Tie exclaimed in surprise, "The temperature dropped so quickly!"
Immediately afterwards, Lu Xuan adjusted the temperature to ten, twenty, and thirty degrees. Everyone felt the temperature increasing and their expressions became more and more surprised.
Lu Qingxi said, "With this temperature-controlled protective shield, will we not even need to wear bio-suits on the island anymore?"
The women standing nearby, including Ji Xiuling, Zhu Qiao'er, and Ye Jing, who all had babies at home, all lit up.
While biosuits do come in children's versions, they are only suitable for children as young as four or five.
The children in those families were either still crawling or had only recently learned to walk, so even the children's biosuits were loose and not very comfortable to wear.
However, children's constitutions are not as good as adults', and the temperature fluctuates during the disaster period, so they have to wear clothes.
With the temperature-controlled protective shield, these children will have an easier time.
When Lu Xuan nodded in affirmation, the women cheered, and some even rushed to send a message to Su Ying, who had given birth safely half a month ago and was currently in postpartum confinement.
Although the child is too young and the Xiong family wouldn't take the child out to be exposed to the wind without a constant temperature protective shield, it saves them the trouble of using a bio-clothes as a small blanket for the child. Su Ying, who is particularly picky and particular about this, will definitely be very happy.
Moreover, although the current outside temperature may not seem to require a constant temperature protective shield, in three days, the new year's hottest season will begin, and the outside temperature will start to rise rapidly, reaching 45 or 46 degrees Celsius in just a few days.
Now the temperature-controlled protective cover feels exceptionally comfortable.
The hunting teams that went out to sea to fish, however, were having a hard time.
On the fishing boat.
Chen Rong, sweating profusely as he ate a sandwich made from slices of mutated breadfruit that was bigger than his face, said irritably, "If only we could have a constant temperature shield on the ship, this awful weather is unbearably hot."
Dry ice can certainly be used, but the swirling smoke can obstruct vision and is inconvenient.
The others ate their homemade popsicles, which were refreshing in their mouths, but their faces were still sweating.
Lu Xuan glanced at them, then looked at the several large boxes of fish and shrimp facing the corner of the fishing boat, and said with a thought, "It's not impossible to cool off a bit."
The others looked up, and Xiong Mao asked urgently, "What method?"
Lu Xuan said, "Most areas are indeed very hot during the hottest season, but there are also some cooler regions."
For example, in places near the North and South Poles, such as Denmark, Iceland, and Norway, the temperature may only be around 20 degrees Celsius even in the hottest summer months.
Even during the hottest season, the temperature might be a little higher, probably just over 30 degrees Celsius. For the villagers who have gotten used to temperatures in the 50s for the past two years, that's quite cool.
What's even better is that these places have a lot of top-quality seafood.
Salmon, king crab, Arctic shrimp...
When Lu Xuan mentioned the taste of these seafood, Chen Rong, who had recently been enjoying all sorts of different flavored sandwiches, suddenly found the food in his mouth tasteless.
The viewers in the live stream were practically drooling.
[Salmon! I absolutely love it! Thick slices of sashimi—the meat is so tender and smooth with a wonderfully non-greasy, oily texture. It's so satisfying!]
I love king crab. Not only does it taste great, but a single crab can weigh ten or even twenty pounds, and a single leg can weigh at least half a pound. It's awesome!
[I can't even imagine how satisfying it would be to eat king crab legs, *slurp*.]
Xiong Mao swallowed hard, his eyes shining, and said, "Then what are we waiting for! Let's hurry to where there's seafood and get more! My wife is still in her postpartum period and needs to eat more good food to nourish herself."
Lu Xuan brought these up because he himself was also craving them, so naturally he had no objection.
Seeing that the others' eyes were also glowing with a green light, he immediately took out his aircraft and prepared to head to the polar seas as quickly as possible.
Lu Xuan mentioned the polar delicacies in the morning, and in the afternoon, the group arrived at their destination and quickly cast their nets to catch a batch of fresh food.
All three types of seafood mentioned by Lu Xuan were caught in the net.
The people on the fishing boat immediately put the king crab and Arctic shrimp into the pot, while Lu Xuan cut the salmon into thick slices to make sashimi, which was eaten with wasabi soy sauce.
Lu Xuan bought the wasabi from the streamer's online store.
When everyone tasted the delicious seafood that even Lu Xuan praised, the young and strong men, who thought they had eaten plenty of good food, were immediately amazed.
How can it be so delicious?!

Pure romance pre-order: "A Max-Level Boss's Raft Survival"
Text: Abnormal climate, ocean pollution, global warming
When humanity ravaged the blue planet beyond recognition, the game of survival at sea suddenly arrived.
People panicked and became hysterical because of the sudden change, but Yu Tang, who possessed mermaid genes and had off-the-charts combat power, suddenly brightened up when she looked at the pure and vast sea.
Soon, many players discovered that one player's art style was completely different from theirs!
·
When others hold a fishing rod and can't catch a single fish for half a day...
Yu Tang, who has a built-in aura that intimidates marine life, has achieved seafood freedom, with salmon, tuna, lobster, and abalone all at her disposal!
·
While others were still barely managing to get one or two treasure chests by scavenging trash...
Yu Tang swung his claws and killed countless big fish, opened treasure chests until his hands were sore, and had so many rare resources that he couldn't even count them all!
·
Landing on the island to kill the BOSS, surviving natural disasters, exploring the ocean depths—tests that would require serious preparation for others are so easy in Yu Tang's eyes!
Yu Tang: Trying to return to the real world? No, no, no, I can play this game forever!
Survival System: QAQ! Get out of here—!
·
·
Just when Yu Tang thought he could do whatever he wanted in the game—he went into heat!
Yu Tang: ? ? ?
I'd accept a fish tail, but mating season? Don't be ridiculous!
But then I thought, I was single before the survival game came along, and now that it's the apocalypse, what's wrong with me having some fun?! (Full of self-righteousness)
On a whim, Yu Tang sent someone an invitation to join the rafting activity: Shall we do it?
The man's eyes were deep and dark, with a burning intensity that seemed to want to devour him whole. Without hesitation, he replied: Do it!
·
Players all thought that the two top players in this server were like kings who would never meet, and that whenever they met, there would definitely be a fierce battle.
Little did they know, the two had already been secretly having an affair behind everyone's back.
