[Open Large Resource Box *1]
[Rewards: 500 points, Black Scale Heavy Armor (purple), Shadow Assassin (purple), Magic Scroll (purple), 5 Beginner Spirit Stones, 2 Location Cards (blue), 2 Shadow-Swapping Stones (blue), Guardian Robe (blue), 2 x 10-inch Pizzas, Salt and Pepper Mantis Shrimp, Spicy Chicken, 2 x 300ml Mint Mouthwash, Folding Fishing Chair]
It's a pity that Xiao Jin didn't get the spiritual energy item she was looking forward to, but it's not bad either, more than half of them are items of a certain grade.
The Black Scale Heavy Armor is a very imposing piece of armor, with an overall red and black color scheme. However, like the previous Crescent Blade, it is not suitable for Xiao Jin.
The Shadow Assassin is different; it's a purple dagger shaped like an enlarged crocodile tooth, and it looks extremely sharp.
Shadow Assassin
Grade: Purple
Type: Weapons
Skill:
1. Sharpness +5, Concealment +6. When hidden in the shadows, there is a 60% chance that the target will not notice you.
2. Instant Thrust: Activate the skill to deliver a strike instantly, increasing speed by 3 during the attack, along with armor penetration and tearing effects. Additionally, the target's healing from healing items is slowed by 50%. Cooldown: 1 hour.
The Shadow Assassin's appearance, like its skills, is stealthy and inconspicuous. Its extremely subtle glow allows it to easily blend into the darkness. Xiao Jin switched to the new purple dagger and patted it happily at his waist.
The last time a scroll appeared was also in a large resource box, but Xiao Jin remembered that it was blue and belonged to the mutated scorpion's 'ground spike' skill.
The purple scroll that was obtained this time also contains a skill belonging to the mutated crocodile—'Hand of the Mud'. The damage caused varies depending on the grade of the skill.
As a bystander who was fortunate enough to witness it, Xiao Jin has a vivid memory of this skill. Shao Siyuan and his group had to use all their trump cards to break apart that giant hand.
This is a deadly move, Xiao Jin carefully put the scroll away.
The [Location Card] allows you to locate a player you've previously seen within the game world. The [Shadow-Swapping Stone] allows you to designate a target and have Xiao Jin swap locations with it.
Of course, the conditions for the exchange are quite strict: Xiao Jin cannot be more than 50 meters away from the target. Both items are single-use and will break after use.
There was one last item, the [Guardian Robe], which was also a protective item resembling an outer garment. Xiao Jin didn't need it, so she kept it to trade back on the train.
After opening the box, Xiao Jin peeked outside through the curtain. It was pitch black outside, and the rainforest that had been washed away by the rainstorm had long since returned to normal.
In the forest, unidentified dark figures darted about, interspersed with the faint howls of wild beasts.
Xiao Jin closed the curtain, wrapped herself in the warm quilt, and drifted off to sleep.
…………
[Ding—Congratulations to all players for successfully surviving to day 5! The system is distributing rewards to surviving players: +500 points, 5 small resource boxes, and 1 medium resource box]
Note: Starting from the fifth day, the disaster drop time will be adjusted to a two-hour cycle. After 12 noon, the resource box spawn probability will be halved.
What?
At that moment, all the players who saw the announcement were shocked and exclaimed in disbelief, feeling as if the sky was about to fall.
The survival reward is certainly generous, since not all players have the ability to get a medium-sized resource box. Most of them team up to kill mutated animals and then split the resources equally. However, the four-hour drop-off time is already enough to keep them busy, and now the system is going to shorten it even further.
Not only that, the spawn rate of resource boxes has also decreased in the afternoon. So what will they eat and drink?
Not everyone is like Xiao Jin, who has food in his own space and can open several high-level resource boxes every day.
Players can generally only find snacks and ordinary items in small resource boxes. The most food they can get is small bread and mineral water. How are they supposed to survive?
Unfortunately, the game rules are set by the system, so even if the players wanted to protest, there was nothing they could do. After all that shouting, they still had no choice but to obediently go outside to find resource boxes.
The afternoon's earnings are not good, but at least I have to make sure I can earn enough for a day's meals in the morning!
Xiao Jin did the same. After waking up at six o'clock, she first glanced at the disaster map for the next round. Seeing that there was no Zone B, she quickly ate something to eat and went out to find supply boxes.
Even with advantages, she cannot slack off; resources are always better the more they have.
Xiao Jin ran around all morning without stopping. During this time, she also deliberately provoked the mutated beasts everywhere. Ever since she learned that the meat of mutated animals could enhance mental power, Xiao Jin had been eyeing the animals on the island.
Regardless of size, it's all about killing. If you kill too many ordinary animals, you might attract their 'boss' and then wipe them all out.
While running around at noon, Xiao Jin reached the border between District BC and took the opportunity to escape a disaster.
By this point, Xiao Jin had visited all areas except for Area A in the center.
However, Xiao Jin only spent two hours in Zone C before quickly returning to Zone B. Because of the different zones, the number of mutated beasts spawning was different; Zone B clearly had more mutated beasts than Zone C, and the same was true for the higher-level ones.
Xiao Jin went all out that morning and reaped considerable rewards.
We found a total of 7 small resource boxes and 2 medium-sized ones.
…………
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Jin leaned against a thick tree and sighed deeply. Then she took out an orange-flavored fruit candy from her spatial storage and popped it into her mouth.
The system is really something...
They really didn't hold back when it came to lowering the refresh rate. I stared at it for three whole hours and didn't see a single resource box.
She killed quite a few mutated animals, regardless of size, but to Xiao Jin's dismay, the mutated monkey she killed didn't drop any resource boxes.
Xiao Jin was dumbfounded. Looking at the monkey's corpse, he cursed the system in his mind, "You even changed this?!"
Helpless, Xiao Jin tried roasting a piece of mutated monkey meat and stuffing it into her mouth, only to spit it out with a "pui" sound a second later.
It not only tastes terrible, but it's also poisonous.
Xiao Jin, expressionless, drank two full vials of antidote before the bluish-black color on his face was finally dispelled.
Okay, it seems that only the mutated meat in the resource box is edible.
Not long after, Xiao Jin encountered a lake again. This time there were two lakes, closely adjacent to each other, and almost identical in shape and size, like twins.
Xiao Jin encountered a high-level mutated beast here, a giant toad.
Seeing the giant toad disgusted Xiao Jin so much that she immediately put on her gas mask without saying a word.
You've all seen toads, right? They have short, chubby bodies, rough skin covered with bumps of varying sizes, and their skin is mostly dark brown.
The mutated toad that Xiao Jin encountered had similar characteristics to most ordinary toads. However, if you magnify these features, which were originally acceptable, by a hundred or a thousand times, you can take a look.
I'm getting trypophobia.
