Chapter 72 Gourmet Feast
"Extremely Spicy Strips: @9346, @Divine Weapon... You're insane! These two lunatics really killed the base commander!"
"Level 1 Disability: ?? What's going on?"
"Beauty is not a mistake: What happened?"
"Expert: Where's the base? There are so many people..."
"Gem Merchant: The base is fine, but it can no longer be upgraded."
"Ultraman's Light: It can't be upgraded anymore... That's terrible. I wonder if there will be more zombie attacks on the base later."
"Extremely Spicy Strips: What's wrong?! We don't know anything about the materials in the base warehouse; we don't have access to it. We can't build cabins, and the walls won't be repaired once we run out of materials!"
"Extra Spicy Strips: You people are so selfish. You kill people for your own greed, completely disregarding the lives of others."
"30-year-old single with lightning-fast reflexes: Damn! The base commander had better loosen the warehouse access restrictions, otherwise the base will be finished if something goes wrong."
"Under the Lemon Tree: Given the current situation, they probably wouldn't dare to open it."
"A butcher's knife: Sigh. We should all unite."
"You can dream about anything: This is really something. You guys should move out right now."
"Extra Spicy Strips: What are you moving? Where can you move it to? It's all flooded outside, we can't even leave the base! And this idiot thinks it's okay."
"Gem Merchant: Why are you swearing? I just hadn't figured it out yet! Who knew the warehouse access wasn't even open?"
"Extra Spicy Strips: If I don't live, none of you will live either!"
Jiang Baiyue breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
If the base commander dies, there will be no negative consequences; he may very well face a massacre.
Next time she leaves the base, she'll have to hire a few more mercenaries and upgrade the mercenary bar.
Several more people in the comments section said that their base leaders had been killed, and without exception, their bases could no longer be upgraded.
Some are better off; their bases have been upgraded to level 2, and their iron walls offer even greater defensive capabilities.
Tragically, those bases that are still at level 1 have had their stone walls damaged and repaired, and the residents are worried that they will be flooded once the materials in the warehouses are used up.
At this point, some people started promoting water transportation.
"A Spark of Hope: Selling rafts! Craftsmanship level 3. Quality guaranteed. Can offer a discount as a friendly donation to a fellow traveler."
"Gemstone products: How much do they cost? Are they safe?"
"A Spark: Private message, private message. Who can guarantee safety in this world? This is ridiculous."
"This is XX: Speedboat! Crafting at the workbench, trading materials, alien energy cores, and energy crystals. Private message me."
"Looking for parents: Anyone want to join a group to buy a speedboat? DM me. From Jiulin Base."
"Evening Breeze: Shipbuilding, material and medicine trading, private chat."
...
At the White Moon Base warehouse, many people lined up to collect ingredients.
Jiang Baiyue arranged this gourmet feast to be a complete buffet.
Residents can collect ingredients and cooking utensils from the warehouse for free and make any kind of food they want. They can choose to eat it themselves or provide it to other residents of the base for free.
The drinks were also offered free for a limited time and in limited quantities that day, and they were snapped up by residents as soon as the announcement was made.
Of course, Jiang Baiyue didn't completely abandon her responsibilities. She still hired a butcher's knife and 15 other players with culinary skills to set up 8 fixed stalls and take turns making food.
Some players who enjoy participating in the event choose to collect cooking utensils and make food themselves. Of course, they also hope to take the opportunity to practice their skills and develop culinary expertise.
Barbecue stall.
"May you have a peaceful life. Oh my, your cooking is so good. I couldn't bear to eat your barbecue before, but this time I can finally enjoy it for free."
Yi Shengping skillfully flips the skewers, sprinkles seasonings, and when he hears the diners' praise, he looks up and smiles heartily.
"Today, everyone can collect ingredients from the base for free and practice their skills. As you level up, you'll be able to make delicious food."
"Haha, we're the ones who benefited."
"It smells so good. This is the power of a Level 3 cooking skill."
"The operation steps seem the same, and the taste is almost the same, but my skill level is a level lower, which means my attributes are lower."
"The taste is completely different; I can tell the difference just by smelling it..."
Even the chubby guy, who wasn't thin, was waiting in line at the barbecue stall. Remembering that he used to dream of being a chef, he decided to go to the warehouse to get some ingredients and then make a barbecue grill so he could set up a stall himself.
"Are you out of your mind? Your skills are worse than Gangzi's."
The funeral service company slapped the fat man, who wasn't thin, on the head, mocking him mercilessly.
The fat guy, who wasn't thin, still wanted to try, but then a street vendor next to him, who didn't have any cooking skills, exclaimed that the meat was burnt.
The fat man, who wasn't going to lose weight, immediately gave up on his plan; he felt bad about wasting the meat.
"Seriously, this is a game, I can practice more and level up... The future chef has failed like this."
The food stalls were set up on an open space next to the farmland, with stalls on both sides and tables and chairs spontaneously set up by players in the middle.
Players who got up early and received their food found a seat nearby and chatted with the people around them while enjoying their meal.
They talked about gossip in the chat area and reminisced about the past.
"Sigh, I never thought someone would actually do that. This, this isn't..."
"Those people are idiots. What good would it do them to kill the base commander?"
"He's greedy. He just wants to be the base commander, he wants to be above everyone else."
"It's the residents in the base who are suffering. The water is so deep. Even if they leave by boat, if they encounter a fish monster, and the boat breaks or capsizes, it will be really dangerous."
"Not necessarily. If someone goes to the underground city through other teleportation points, they can come to the White Moon Base through Space Station 2."
"That's a probabilistic event..."
When Xu Yinuo woke up, the aroma of food filled the air as she opened the door. She closed her eyes and took a deep sniff: "Delicious!"
"Oh my, you're so lucky. I just finished buying it and you woke up."
Du Yuxin, holding a handful of grilled meat in her left hand and a skewer of grilled meat in her right, said, "I gave you a portion, eat some to replenish your energy. Go and queue up to buy your own."
Xu Yinuo slid over and snuggled up to Du Yuxin: "Oh, you're so nice. You must have bought a lot. I'll eat first, and then we'll go queue up."
Just as Du Yuxin was about to slap Xu Yinuo's hand away, she turned around and saw a familiar person open the door and come out.
"Willow Leaf Flying Knife, just woke up? Hurry up and line up, there are so many people."
Liu Yefei turned her head, a smile on her face: "Okay."
Xu Yinuo took a big bite of a crispy, juicy piece of meat and said, "What good news is it? You look like a completely different person today."
"I awakened my superpower yesterday, and I want to thank you guys for reminding me to buy a fishing rod."
Thinking of this, Willow Leaf Flying Dagger felt even happier, and his smile became even brighter.
The superpower she awakened was a rather powerful, offensive one—Thunder Web.
With her wide-range offensive skills, last night's lightning net left the fish monster either dead or severely wounded, and she leveled up again.
Although my current source energy limit is one step behind other ability users, as long as I always maintain a higher level than others, I can close the gap.
The floodwaters had just receded, so she planned to team up with others tomorrow to go out and level up and collect supplies.
Du Yuxin's heart skipped a beat, and she invited, "Really! How about we form a team?"
Willow Leaf Flying Knife is a very reliable person, considering that he risked his life to save his father, and even after losing a hand, he still worked hard to train and never gave up on himself.
You can see that this person has a very strong will.
Willow Leaf Flying Knife: "Okay. But it's still not safe with just the three of us. I think we need to find a few more people to team up with."
Xu Yinuo handed Liu Yefeidao a piece of roasted meat and said, "We've been observing a few people recently, and we're planning to talk to them tonight. If it's a good fit, we can expand our team tomorrow."
Du Yuxin squinted her eyes: "Eat quickly, this is a dish made with the skill of Yisheng Ping'an, it's so delicious you'll want to swallow it whole. I queued for a long time to get it."
