In the middle of the night, the group of ornithomimus suddenly became agitated, and Qianyue and Song Zeyang were awakened at the same time.
A small earthquake occurred shortly afterwards.
Song Zeyang was so scared that he wanted to chase after the group of ostrich-like dragons and run away. However, Qianyue stopped after coming out of the cave.
After the shaking passed, she returned to the cave and continued to rest against the stone wall at the entrance.
"..." Seeing this, Song Zeyang silently retracted his leg.
But he did not follow Qianyue closely. Instead, he observed the terrain for a while and finally sat down beside a rock somewhere outside the cave.
He called out to Qianyue, "Come over here. The terrain is open and safer."
During periods of frequent earthquakes, it is usually safer to stay in open areas to prevent accidents such as landslides or even collapses.
But Qianyue refused.
"The entrance to the cave is pretty good."
Seeing her firm attitude, Song Zeyang shrugged and did not insist.
But soon, he realized what Qianyue meant by "the entrance to the cave is very good".
"Fuck, why is my health dropping so fast?"
After Song Zeyang felt that the character was weak, he immediately opened the attribute interface. As a result, when he looked closely, he found that the health points that were fully replenished at night had actually dropped.
He has only been out for a short time!
After hurriedly taking his medicine, Song Zeyang noticed that the [respiratory infection] in his condition description that had been cured with anti-inflammatory drugs had not only reappeared, but the color had also become much darker.
While he was in a daze, a "swish" sound suddenly came from the air, and Song Zeyang subconsciously dodged.
The temperature around seemed to rise a few degrees at that moment.
Song Zeyang turned around and saw a football-sized rock not far away that was still smoking. The weeds around it were even showing signs of being scorched by the residual heat.
Song Zeyang subconsciously wiped his face——
All gray.
Volcanic ash.
"Damn, I forgot about that!"
Song Zeyang no longer hesitated and ran towards the cave, covering his nose.
The roar of a large dinosaur was heard in the distance. Song Zeyang tripped unexpectedly and then found that it seemed to be in the same direction where the Struthiomimus had run away before.
If he had really run out just now, he would probably be in his own nutrition cabin now.
“…”
Song Zeyang subconsciously glanced at Qianyue, who was leaning against the stone wall with her eyes closed, sleeping soundly.
It’s amazing. It’s really fucking amazing.
With this sigh in his mind, Song Zeyang shook his head and sat down quietly on the other side of the cave entrance.
After more than forty minutes, the night ended.
The time displayed was "Day 3 00:01:45", but it was still dark outside.
Many players initially thought that the weather was simply changing, but when they looked closely, they found that there was dust and haze above their heads.
In this situation, Qianyue calmly took out a mask and put it on, which almost stunned Song Zeyang.
Isn't this a survival game?
Why does the other party always look prepared?!
Noticing his gaze, Qianyue glanced at him, then slowly put the homemade funny face cloth back on to cover the mask underneath.
"I bought the masks from Duobao Merchant. I think it's still in time for you to go there now."
At dawn, the system prompted that Duobao Merchant appeared somewhere within a kilometer of them.
"I'm going now!"
Song Zeyang stood up immediately after hearing this.
But if he really went there like that, he might have died of suffocation before he even got to the person.
So in the end, Song Zeyang spent a huge amount of money again - a mental suppressant, and bought a mask from Qianyue, then he picked up his backpack and ran out in a hurry.
Qianyue used up the inhibitor and then counted the supplies as usual after getting up.
The first item at the beginning scared her.
Brown bread x26.
This includes the one she picked today.
At this time yesterday, she was so destitute that she was chewing an apple that only added one attribute point. Unexpectedly, she would be sitting back on the high Bread Mountain today.
Of course, more than half of it comes from losses caused by compensation traps.
One trap = fifteen loaves of bread.
One mask = one suppressant.
Qianyue suddenly discovered that she had a talent for business and could make money without even lying down.
The hidden business genius slung her backpack onto her back, picked up her plain bucket, and walked out while sighing:
"Life is so unpredictable~"
On the third day of the dungeon, the dust and acidic substances brought by the volcanic eruption began to spread over a large area. The sky was covered with a gray filter and the air quality dropped sharply.
Many people realized later that there seemed to be masks on the shelves of Duobao Merchant in this copy.
But by the time they went there, the masks that had been unsold in the early stages had already been sold out.
One player was lucky enough to buy the last one. After paying, he couldn't wait to put it on his face, but within a minute, someone else grabbed it by the head.
The player immediately got angry: "Fuck, give me back my mask!"
The person who stole the things was not willing to be outdone and shouted back to the others: "He has more, go ask him for it!"
The onlookers immediately cast their eyes over, some wanting to exchange, some wanting to buy with supplies, and some even wanting to take advantage of the situation and steal a few using their beggar skills...
Players are devastated: "I fucking bought that one!"
…
After all, people like Qianyue who anticipated the later situation and consciously stocked up are a minority.
But there are exceptions.
"Brother, do you want to buy a mask?"
A voice came from the side, Qianyue turned around, "Why is it you again?"
Yu Chengyi was stunned. Looking at the man in front of him with a rag tied on his face, he couldn't remember who he was.
But his good professional qualities allowed him to continue the topic even though he was confused.
He lowered his voice and said, "Yes, it's me again—Brother, this rag of yours is useless. It's completely useless. I have a mask here. Do you want one?"
Qianyue: "...Why are you always sneaky every time I see you?"
Yu Chengyi: "Well, for this kind of business, of course we have to keep a low profile."
Indeed, the business has been snatched from Duobao Merchants. If he doesn't keep a low profile, he will probably die a very ugly death.
In every sense.
Qianyue had just happened to be here and had no intention of buying anything. But after meeting Yu Chengyi, she changed her mind.
If she remembered correctly, this person was also a sucker.
Qianyue: "How much are your masks?"
"Shh!"
Yu Chengyi quickly pulled her aside and said, "Let's be quiet so that others don't hear us. Many players have been robbed before."
"price."
Yu Chengyi made a "five" gesture.
Qianyue: "Five loaves of bread?"
Yu Chengyi chuckled, "Five inhibitors."
Most people like to bargain when doing business, so Yu Chengyi deliberately raised the price very high and waited for the other party to bargain.
Unexpectedly, Qianyue raised her eyebrows and said, "Deal."
Yu Chengyi was stunned.
Before I could even get excited, I heard the other person say, "I still have dozens of masks. How many do you want to buy?"
Yu Chengyi: ? ?!
He originally thought it was a big customer, but unexpectedly, he was here to cause trouble. Yu Chengyi's face instantly became very ugly.
Yu Chengyi said in an unhappy tone: "Are you kidding me?"
Qianyue: "You set the price yourself."
Yu Chengyi sneered: "Do you believe that I will go and shout right now to let everyone know that you have a mask?"
Qianyue said indifferently: "Then go ahead."
We'll see who runs faster then.
Yu Chengyi sneered and glared, acting ruthless for a while, but in the end, he was defeated by Qianyue's unchanging dead fish face.
A light bulb went off in his head, and he suddenly remembered who this person was.
Isn't this the woman who cheated him out of a weapon and made him pay for props and information?
Yu Chengyi was about to say something when Qianyue spoke first: "Did I sell you those two tubes of inhibitor last time and let you make less money?"
“…”
Yu Chengyi's momentum weakened instantly.
"You actually knew that?"
Qianyue said, "...I didn't know before, but now I know."
Yu Chengyi: “…”
In fact, Qianyue was not shooting without purpose.
From the situation of those zombie-like players in the later period, it can be seen that in the first copy, things like mental suppressants are in short supply.
Because of this, before this dungeon begins, there will definitely be many people who will buy a large number of inhibitors when replenishing supplies, which will eventually cause relative inflation.
The shortage of masks has further exacerbated the depreciation of inhibitors.
Smart players could see a business opportunity in this, but Yu Chengyi was planning to resell it.
Qianyue complained: "It's really unbelievable that they dare to resell it right under the noses of NPCs."
Yu Chengyi: "Haven't you heard the saying that the bolder the people, the more fertile the land? The excitement of making money is what makes it so exciting."
Qianyue was too lazy to continue wasting time with him. She had originally just wanted to come here to search for props, but she didn't expect one to suddenly appear randomly nearby.
"Are you going to accept it or not?"
Yu Chengyi: "... Take it, two tubes of inhibitor."
Qianyue glared at him and said, "Can you buy one of the two and show it to me?"
While saying this, she began to regret that she had sold the land to Song Zeyang too cheaply in the morning.
Yu Chengyi exclaimed, "Isn't there a transfer fee?! I buy two tubes and sell three tubes, but I only make a profit from one tube. This small business can't get any smaller!"
Qianyue was too lazy to listen to his nonsense.
"If you have any item fragments, I'd consider this price."
Yu Chengyi suddenly became alert: "What do you want?"
Qianyue: "Artifact fragments."
Yu Chengyi: "...My heart is also a work of art, made of glass. The kind that will break into pieces if you drop it. Do you want it?"
Qianyue: "This slap of mine is made of iron. It's guaranteed to burn. Do you want it?"
Yu Chengyi immediately became serious: "As for the newly released supplies, it's mentioned in the patch announcement, but I haven't seen them so far."
It seems that it is indeed a rare material.
Qianyue was not discouraged. After asking the other party to keep an eye out, she took many detours back to her base.
It was still the same river as yesterday, but considering safety issues, Qianyue moved to the upper reaches.
Halfway up the mountain, with the sound of a river and lush trees in the distance, there stood a stone house made of volcanic ash and water, standing abruptly on the lawn.
