Just as predicted, the third match involved very little combat; it was almost entirely a matter of strategy.
Su Lin asked himself honestly, if he were to rely solely on himself, escaping might not be a problem, but it would definitely not be this smooth, and he might not be able to quickly receive several welfare benefits.
This demonstrates the immense importance of followers! They truly deserve to be the scarcest resource in the entire escape mechanic!
"No, it's all because my older brother is lucky."
Xiao Linlin didn't take credit for it, and said with a smile, "The most valuable thing is still the Martial Arts Box. Its value is really too high."
"really."
Su Lin nodded in agreement. If the 20 million value of the Martial Arts Box were excluded, his overall gains this time were actually slightly less than those from the second match.
The 20 million from the Martial Arts Box and the 3 million from the character cards accounted for the largest share of the profits from the third match.
"Let's go back and rest."
Holding Xiao Linlin's small hand, Su Lin didn't linger in the lobby for long, but went straight to the corridor leading to the waiting area and returned to her dormitory.
Not long after he left, the survivors wandering in the lobby suddenly noticed something was wrong.
"Hiring! We're a team of veteran escapers, and we're missing one player! Requirements: at least 3 successful escape attempts and at least 5 escape match experiences! We desperately need a contact... Wait, holy crap!"
"Everyone, look at the rankings! Holy crap! Master Su has broken another record!! His assets have surged by over 20 million!!"
"My god! Is this even human? The second-ranked person's assets have barely broken five million, and he already has tens of millions in assets? And this hasn't even been a month!"
Second place: Good, good, it turns out that no matter how hard I try, I can't catch up. I can only watch the gap widen.
"Quick! Find the pro player! The rankings were just updated, the pro player must have just come out of the game!"
"Who just finished a game? Go find them! The pro is among us!"
While the square was filled with shock and commotion, Su Lin had already slipped into his dormitory and plunged into the bathroom.
No doubt about it, take a shower, get some sleep! Completely relax!
Of course, if survivors have specific preferences, the more upscale dormitories can offer some special in-home services, such as massages...
While resting in the waiting area, survivors can enjoy the best service as long as they have enough resource coins!
If a survivor can't think of it, the waiting area can provide it.
Death is not scary; poverty is the scariest thing.
Su Lin disliked these things; he only sought pure rest to conserve his energy for the next battle.
"Big brother! We're rich now!"
Xiao Linlin was inspecting the warehouse and asked with great delight, "Do you want to purchase some necessary entertainment products? I've seen some before. The follower area can also customize some special living followers for you. Although they can't be used in the game, they can satisfy your mental needs."
"No."
Su Lin calmly refused, saying, "Don't waste money. Every resource coin is earned through hard work."
"Ah...that's typical engineer thinking."
Looking at Su Lin's strong back in the bathroom, Xiao Linlin couldn't help but sigh slightly: "What a rigid man who doesn't know how to enjoy life."
What is an engineer's mindset?
Su Lin looked at the girl with some confusion through his misty eyes: "You mean, I'm the kind of guy who's into science? Actually, my education level is just average, and I don't know anything profound about science."
"No, I don't mean education level."
Xiao Linlin shook her head; she was too lazy to explain further.
This is a materialistic efficiency-driven behavior that emphasizes the logical ability of systematic thinking and places great emphasis on material parameters such as time, cost, and performance.
With clear goals, strong motivation, unwavering resolve, and the ability to resist temptation, they are also excellent learners.
They excel at creating reliable and sustainable solutions with limited resources, addressing the "how" question and pushing themselves to succeed.
To put it bluntly, it's the traditional male-dominated mindset.
"Shall I go organize the warehouse and check the modules in the logistics area?"
Xiao Linlin asked a question, and Su Lin nodded: "Okay, if you want to spend some money on entertainment, that's fine too; you don't have to be too hard on yourself, and you don't have to worry about my share."
This is a reward for meritorious service; Su Lin allows Xiao Linlin to "waste" some of the assets.
"No, I won't be extravagant."
Xiao Linlin waved her hand knowingly and skipped away from the dormitory.
After taking a shower, Su Lin lay down on the bed and soon began to snore.
He even gives himself time to clear his mind, and his execution is almost like that of a robot; he is extremely efficient in everything he does.
It was another eight hours of sleep, precise to the second. No alarm clock was needed, and Su Lin quickly opened his eyes.
Thanks to his past training and combat career, Su Lin didn't find his life boring or dull; he enjoyed the solitude that most people considered tedious.
The first thing Su Lin did upon opening her eyes was to check on Xiao Linlin's condition.
The girl had already returned to her dormitory and was now fast asleep in her room.
The warehouse was cleaned up, and the materials that were not worth keeping were exchanged for resource coins. Some collectibles with a market value were also listed on the player trading market.
Xiao Linlin handled the logistics work properly, saving Su Lin the trouble.
Su Lin also checked her backpack, and Xiao Linlin had even prepared the basic supplies needed for the next battle.
