Chapter 38, Night of the 7th Day
After resting on the ground for a long time, Jiang Baiyue drank a bottle of water, ate two luncheon meats, a can of apples, and three compressed biscuits before her hunger level dropped to 0 and her body regained its strength.
The green poison monster roared again outside. Jiang Baiyue climbed the stairs to the roof and looked towards the space station.
The green poison monster seems to be running back.
Then she realized that thinking too much was useless, and only the space station could take them back to the White Moon Base the fastest and safest way. She opened the panel and followed the lit map back.
As she was about to return to her original street, she encountered a sunflower.
"I couldn't keep up with you at all. I said I wanted to help, but I was a step behind and lost you. I could only look for you by following the direction the bats were flying."
Do you need a healing potion? Are you injured?
Jiang Baiyue wasn't used to such enthusiastic concern, and her tone was a little stiff: "It's nothing. I discovered that Baiyue Base also has a space station in this instance. Let's go back, grab our stuff, and head over there."
She spoke in a roundabout way, so as long as she didn't reveal any flaws, even if people had doubts, they wouldn't be certain.
Sunflower was a little surprised to hear the news; at least she could go back to base.
"Great! If we stay any longer, we won't be able to bring back many supplies, and we've already consumed quite a bit of food."
The two returned to the scene of the battle, where a group of people were anxiously looking around.
"They're back! They're back!"
"Can we divide the things now?"
"We're in a hurry to get back to base, otherwise they'll charge us extra coins if it gets too late."
Every day, Xia and Jiang Yuan asked Tangping Xianyu with concern if he was injured. They were relieved to receive a good reply and to see that Tangping Xianyu's complexion was not too bad.
"Everyone's waiting to divide the spoils. Let's open the box."
"Whoever drops something from the little bat keeps it."
The box was opened, and there were many things inside, but there were also many people, so it was barely enough to divide them up. However, everyone was lucky to survive.
Jiang Baiyue carefully read the subtitles and read them aloud to everyone. Then, she hesitated before saying, "This is a bit difficult to distinguish..."
Sunflower looked around at everyone's expressions and also found it hard to tell who was right.
If they were on the same team, it would be fine, but the main problem is that none of them know each other.
The atmosphere became tense again, and no one could speak on behalf of others.
They were all worried that they would receive fewer supplies.
At this moment, a woman with a high ponytail took two steps forward and said, "I have a suggestion... I don't represent anyone, and we can discuss any opinions you may have."
"This monster-hunting incident was an unexpected disaster. The main force members can get a larger share, and the loot shouldn't be divided equally, but I hope you won't take all the good stuff, weapons, medicine, and food, okay?"
Jiang Baiyue and Sunflower were the main contributors. Tiantian fired a shot at Xia, causing a heavy blow, and they also participated in the battle afterward, so they can be considered as the main force.
The three nodded.
Jiang Baiyue actually meant the same thing, but as a key member, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
"Sure, but the items here are hard to divide. We can exchange supplies with you within our capabilities so that you can all benefit."
Looking around, some people exchanged glances and nodded in agreement with the woman with the high ponytail's suggestion.
After all, the profits weren't agreed upon beforehand. Now that Jiang Baiyue and her group of five are armed with guns, cannons, and supernatural abilities, they can't object to not sharing the profits.
"Alright. We're just trying to save our own lives."
"Okay, okay, you guys hurry up and divide it up. We need to get back quickly."
The loot includes 500 coins, 10 health packs, 1 fang dagger, 20 potato seeds, 5 cans of herring, 6 pairs of bat wings, and 6 night vision goggles.
Jiang Baiyue took 200 coins and potato seeds.
Daggers require close combat, which is not suitable for her because she is timid and afraid of pain, and the damage value is not particularly high.
Since the blood packs didn't provide as much healing as the healing potions, she didn't choose them.
She already had a night vision goggles and didn't really need them. This time, she didn't bring them because of factors such as the sunflowers providing torches and not having enough backpacks.
One by one, the other people announced the supplies they wanted, and she then traded them to them one by one.
No one schemed, the process was harmonious, and after the distribution, a few people made a deal, exchanging with Sunflower and Tiantian Xiangxia.
Jiang Baiyue scratched her head. Everyone else was rushing to the teleportation point, so she didn't have a chance to tell them the location of the space station.
"Let's go, let's hurry back too."
"We don't know how Qingcai and the others are doing. If they come back into the dungeon to find us, that would be troublesome."
...
Day 7 of survival, 18:13:46, temperature 2°C～8°C, zone 301, number of survivors 98356/100000.
Upon returning to the base, the group immediately checked the time and were shocked to find that two days had passed!
"I need to contact Qingcai right away, I hope they don't actually come into the dungeon to find us..."
"It's so cold, only a few degrees."
Jiang Baiyue was also shocked. She thought she would be back on the 6th night at the latest, but it turned out to be the 7th day.
She needs to quickly organize the resources to build the arrow tower. The mission hall hasn't updated the acquisition missions in the past two days, so she's missed out on acquiring a lot of resources.
I wonder how many arrow towers we can build.
Tomorrow, the mercenaries' commission for two days will be deducted. They've done a lot of work these past two days, and I'm worried that the commission will be maxed out and I'll have to pay 1000 coins.
You also have to pay for the bullets with coins.
Think about it, you can survive without going out...
"Make way, don't block the doorway."
A man was returning home when his door was blocked by several people. He hadn't had much to show for it that day and was about to lose his temper when he caught sight of two particularly tall men in black. The words he was about to say immediately fell silent.
"First time visiting the White Moon Base? Then you've come to the right place..."
Jiang Baiyue snapped out of her daze and stepped aside, ignoring the passerby's words, and said something to the two people with sunflowers.
"I'm going back first. You can divide it up for me after you've finished processing it."
Jiang Baiyue went straight back to the wooden house.
She put everything from her game backpack into the warehouse.
Then, I checked the base's control panel and, as expected, all the missions in the mission lobby had been completed.
Thinking of the two days' worth of lost profits, Jiang Baiyue felt a pang of heartache and quickly updated the task.
To be honest, in a dungeon, 10 backpack slots can't hold too much stuff, so spending two days is a bit of a waste.
The biggest benefit is that we've discovered another space station, so we can scavenge for resources in the dungeon anytime.
Jiang Baiyue glanced at her talent stats... She could level up in a day or two if she scraped together more resources.
These past few days she has been paying special attention to the growth of her talent's "proficiency." The upgrade conditions seem simple, but they are also a bit difficult.
The simple thing is that as long as you loot once, your proficiency level increases by 1.
The difficulty lies in the fact that it must be the first looting, and the resource point must not have been looted by anyone else. Only by looting for the first time and obtaining the supplies can she increase her proficiency.
This is also why Jiang Baiyue wanted to go into the dungeon with the Sunflower group.
The base's protection period is about to end, and heavy rain is coming. It will be more difficult to scavenge for supplies at the resource points, so she needs to upgrade her talent ability to obtain more supplies.
