Gu Mian: "Haha, because I got a 100x duplication card from a high-end blind box."
Gu Xiaobei: "Holy crap?! Sister, are you that lucky? I'm so envious!"
Qin Huaizhou: "...As you know, I've always had a very good mindset..."
Meizi: "I understand, I understand, brother, I feel the same way!"
...
Amidst the envious sighs of her friends, Gu Mian opened her email and received the rest card issued by the system.
[Congratulations on defeating 100 alien creatures! You have obtained 1 Rest Card.]
[Congratulations on defeating 100 alien creatures! You have obtained 1 Rest Card.]
[Congratulations on defeating 100 alien creatures! You have obtained 1 Rest Card.]
...
[Talent used, gain 8 Rest Cards.]
Ah this...
Having only been in the hunting grounds for two days, I've already obtained 8 rest cards. Doesn't that put me way ahead of other players?
With points, supplies, and a rest card, Gu Mian pondered for a moment and decided not to go out to fight monsters today, but to rest well in the cave!
...
evening.
Gu Mian rummaged through her spatial cards and found a box of spicy beef-flavored self-heating rice, intending to eat it for dinner. Just as she opened the package, she received a private message from Xu Kun.
Xu Kun: "Here's a [Beggar's Chicken*1], a new recipe I just learned. Hehe, little sister, try it and see how it tastes."
[Successfully claimed, received Beggar's Chicken*2.]
The beggar's chicken, with its golden-brown skin, releases an enticing aroma the moment it's taken out of the oven.
Gu Mian quickly stuffed the beggar's chicken into her spatial card, and then gave Xu Kun the highest praise.
"Wow, Kun! The beggar's chicken almost made me dizzy from the aroma. Your cooking skills are getting better and better!"
Xu Kun: "Hehe, I'm glad you like it. If I catch another pheasant tomorrow, I'll make you another one!"
Gu Mian: "Sure, then I'll look forward to it a little!"
Just then, Jiang Bai sent a private message.
"Here's a gift of [Milk Fruit*5], a newly discovered fruit. The juice inside tastes sweet like milk. I wonder if you'll like it."
There's such a fruit? I'd better try it!
[Successfully claimed, received 10 Milk Fruits.]
The palm-sized, milky-white fruit emitted a sweet fragrance in her hand. Gu Mian used a knife to cut open the skin, and the milky-white liquid flowed out from inside.
She pointed the bottle at the empty mineral water bottle, and in no time it was half full.
"It really does look like milk." She picked up the bottle, tilted her head back, and took a sip.
"Hmm...it tastes similar to Want Want Milk."
It was so sweet and delicious that she couldn't resist opening three milk fruit drinks in a row.
Throwing away the fruit peel, Gu Mian opened Jiang Bai's private message and replied, "It tastes like Want Want Milk, I quite like it."
Jiang Bai: "I'm glad you like them. I'll pick a few more for you tomorrow."
Gu Mian: "Sure, I'll trade you my space card?"
Jiang Bai: "No need to be so polite, it was just a small matter."
Gu Mian: "Okay, then I won't be polite."
If you don't want the space cards, then give me two small bottles of energy potions instead!
Jiang Bai: "Okay."
You never need to be polite with me.
He opened and closed his mouth a few times, burying the words between his lips and teeth.
...
The beggar's chicken was cooked to perfection, and the chicken meat was fresh and tender. She finished the whole beggar's chicken, which weighed more than two pounds, without much effort.
After a satisfying drink, a sip of Want Want Milk is just perfect!
Moza: "Here are two black pepper steaks as a return gift. Please accept them!"
Meizi: "I'm giving you [2 bamboo tube rice] as a return gift."
Qin Huaizhou: "Here's 10 roasted mushrooms for you, miss. How do you like the mushrooms I picked today?"
...
As if it were pre-arranged, several friends in the group sent her private messages with food almost simultaneously.
Gu Mian pondered for a moment and then understood. This must be a return gift for the supplies she had sent in the group chat earlier.
After thinking it through, she accepted it all without any pressure.
