Back at the villa, Chen Ping planned to take a shower first, and then start upgrading the raft, since he now had enough planks and iron blocks.
Ten minutes later, Chen Ping, who was sitting on the sofa, opened the raft attribute panel and looked at the upgrade conditions.
【Name：Raft】
【Level: 11+1】
Effect: None
[Equipment Slot: 2/2, Brilliant Black Pearl, Mermaid Orb]
Area: 1100㎡
[Raft Durability: {㎡}]
[Raft Upgrade Materials: 1500/1500 Planks, 400/400 Iron Blocks, 300/300 Bronze Blocks]
That's more than enough, but it seems like it's only enough for one level up? Not enough bronze blocks.
I looked at the warehouse page and saw that there were only 604 bronze blocks, which was too little and not enough to upgrade the raft.
Chen Ping thought for a moment, then opened the trading market and searched for bronze blocks. Soon, rows of bronze blocks appeared.
I took a look, and it's mostly trading iron ingots, but they're quite expensive, usually several to one, and some people are even selling them for ten to one.
After looking around, I found the cheapest one was a one to two ratio, meaning one bronze block for two iron blocks.
Chen Ping calculated that each level up would require about 100 bronze blocks, and it would take about 1,900 bronze blocks to reach level 15.
Chen Ping looked at the iron block, which cost a little over 100,000 yuan. Well, he changed it.
Consume 3800 iron blocks to obtain 1900 bronze blocks.
You can now upgrade, gaining up to 5 levels at once.
【Name：Raft】
【Level: 15+1】
Effect: None
[Equipment Slot: 2/3, Brilliant Black Pearl, Mermaid Orb]
Area: 1500㎡
[Raft Durability: {㎡}]
[Raft Upgrade Materials: 3500/3500 Planks, 800/800 Iron Blocks, 4/700 Bronze Blocks]
It consumed a total of wooden planks, 3000 iron blocks, and 2100 bronze blocks.
"100,000 durability, pretty tanky, hehe, not bad, really not bad."
"Well, let's take a look at the purple quality weapons. If they are cheap, I will buy a few."
Enter the search term, and soon a page full of purple-quality weapons popped up.
Although I looked at it, most of them wanted to exchange for purple quality accessories, and some were even more outrageous, wanting to exchange for gold quality equipment.
Some people exchange for experience beads, but there are basically none for basic materials. I searched but couldn't find anything with a high cost-performance ratio. I'll search for gold-quality items next.
A page full of gold-quality items appeared in front of Chen Ping. He checked the page count and saw that there were only 13 pages, which meant there were more than 1,200 gold-quality items.
It’s really little. You know, the trading market is open to all new areas.
Chen Ping opened the chat channel and looked at the number of people in the upper left corner. It was section 703.
Of the original 100,000 people, only 30,000 remain. If every district were like this, how many people would have died? Chen Ping dared not even think about it, nor could he imagine it at all.
The scene was beyond description, even described as a mountain of corpses and a sea of corpses.
It’s chilling to think about it. I shook my head and thought that there’s no point in thinking so much. I’ll just become stronger first.
......
Chen Ping suddenly remembered the treasure room and wondered how much wealth the "Fortune and Treasure" feature had brought in.
The probability of 10% is still quite high, although it is only triggered once a day. Soon Chen Ping arrived at the door of the treasure room.
Pushed it open and walked in.
I looked around but didn't find anything. I was disappointed. Well, it's only 10% after all, pitifully low. Humph.
What's next?
Lost in thought, Chen Ping went straight into the kitchen and started making dinner. Sure enough, the sky began to darken again.
After bustling around in the kitchen for over half an hour, Chen Ping glanced outside and realized that Ai Laiyi and the others hadn't returned yet. He checked the pot, adjusted the heat, and then went to the plantation to look for them.
Before long, Chen Ping brought back the three dirty little elf girls.
After watching them obediently take their clothes and go into the bathroom, Chen Ping returned to the kitchen with satisfaction and continued cooking.
This time, the dishes included simple boiled barnacles, spicy lobster claw meat, steamed lobster meat, and pan-fried fish, all served with a fruit platter—perfect!
Chen Ping: ????乛?乛????
It's a pity the yellow crystal rice seeds were only planted recently, otherwise adding yellow crystal rice would have made it even more perfect.
As for the family bucket of fried chicken legs and grilled corn on the cob, Chen Ping found that they were gone after he returned from the Death Arena. They must have been eaten by Ailei and the others since he didn't come back to make lunch.
Da da da!!
"Ta-da! Brother Chen Ping, do you need Lycia's help?"
Seeing that Lycia's hair was a little damp, Chen Ping smiled and said, "Lycia, you've come at just the right time. Take the dishes out."
Chen Ping handed the boiled barnacles to Lycia, then took the other dishes and followed her to the dining table.
After setting out the dishes, Chen Ping carried Licia to her seat, then went back into the kitchen to get the remaining fried fish and four bottles of soda.
Enjoyable mealtime...
......
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Chen Ping sent the three little kids upstairs to sleep.
Stepping outside, it was instantly pitch black; you really couldn't see anything. However, the sky was filled with stars, countless and densely packed with starlight.
Listening to the sound of the waves, Chen Ping took a luminous pearl from the treasure room, slowly walked to a beach chair, and sat down.
I opened the chat channel, and the comments were scrolling by like crazy; sure enough, there were a lot of night owls.
"Hey, as soon as it gets dark, it's like I'm blind, I can't see anything."
"Yeah, the lights and things like that in the market are ridiculously expensive, it's a total rip-off."
"Can't you make torches out of planks?"
"Who wouldn't? But I'm scared. Just thinking about how it's all dark around me, and my raft is the only brightly lit one, makes me feel like something is watching me."
"Yeah, me too. I always feel like some monster will see the light from the sea and climb onto the raft."
"Damn it, what you guys said scared me so much that I threw the torch into the sea."
"You guys were right. A sea monster actually climbed onto my raft. Luckily, it was just a level 5 cuttlefish monster, which I killed on the spot, giving it an experience bead and some fish meat."
"Damn, if we don't light a fire, we won't even know when the sea monsters come up!"
"That's unlikely. You know, our raft is always moving, and at a very fast speed. Unless it's targeting you, under normal circumstances, no sea monsters will come aboard."
"Huh? What's with the 'going upstairs' thing?"
“Maybe like a moth to a flame?.”
"It's phototaxis, right? Many creatures are attracted to light."
"Yes, I used to run to the beach with a flashlight to catch crabs, but the crabs here are a bit big."
