Chapter 11 Apology Letter, 007's Compensation
[Ding! You have received an apology letter. Go check it out!]
At that moment, Meng Qingyin was standing and pedaling her balance bike with gritted teeth—she had no choice, pedaling while sitting was too slow.
Upon hearing this prompt, Meng Qingyin stopped and opened it with a puzzled expression.
[Apology Letter: Dear player, hello. I am Survival System 007. The incident you experienced at 13:34:26 was caused by a system vulnerability. The vulnerability has now been fixed, and I will compensate you for your losses. Click to claim.]
Meng Qingyin thought about it carefully. It was 1:30 pm, which was exactly the time for the "pheasant" incident.
So, did [Canglang] really tell the 007 system about this "bug," and then 007 actually fixed it?
But that's clearly not a bug.
Meng Qingyin couldn't understand how 007 "repaired" it.
But since it has already been repaired, she won't ask any more questions.
I didn't expect there would be compensation, and I don't know what it is.
She clicked to claim the compensation, which turned out to be ten vacuum-packed roast chickens!
Meng Qingyin was very satisfied with the compensation and "reluctantly" accepted 007's apology.
I stuffed the roast chicken into the food storage box, but it was so full that the lid couldn't be closed.
That won't do. What if it falls off on the way?
She simply took out a few bags and put them into the camouflage bag, and finally the lid of the box was closed.
Meng Qingyin slung her camouflage bag over her shoulder and continued forward.
This kick lasted for more than an hour.
[Friendly reminder: It's 5:50 PM now, and it will be dark in ten minutes. As night falls, darkness and danger will increase, so players, please find a place to set up camp as soon as possible!]
Although it was meant as a friendly reminder, it still caused dissatisfaction among some players.
DouDou: "Huh? It's getting dark already? But I only found one supply box today, and I didn't even find any water. I wanted to keep looking!"
Ubume: "Yeah, this game is too laid-back! An hour's break at noon, and it's only 6 PM and we have to rest again? I don't want to rest, I want supply crates! I strongly suggest canceling the break time!"
The Lie Game: "Haven't you been exploited enough yet? You're already in the game, and you're still competing fiercely?"
One punch, one whiny guy: "I only care about whether there's a dinner-sharing event tonight. I've already prepared my dinner!"
I am the Lucky One (Fake): "Sigh, I've been busy all day and my vehicle hasn't been upgraded. I don't even know what I've been busy with."
Li Mei: "I haven't found a single supply box, and I haven't had any water all day. I'm so thirsty! Could someone please give me a bottle of water?"
Li Xuan: "Get lost, you freeloaders! Do you think anyone's stupid enough to give you free water?"
Zhao Lan: "I still have half a bottle of water left, Li Mei, do you want it?"
Li Mei: "Yes, yes! Thank you! May you have a peaceful and happy life!"
Li Xuan: "There really are idiots!"
Wang Jian: "I'm dying of thirst too, Zhao Lan, could you give me a bottle of water?"
Zhao Lan: "Didn't you find any supply crates either?"
Wang Jian: "Why do you care so much? If you're willing to give one to Li Mei, give me one too."
Zhao Lan: "I gave her water because she hadn't opened any supply boxes. It's a matter of helping in an emergency, not providing long-term relief."
Wang Jian: "Get lost! Stop talking nonsense if you're not going to give it to me!"
Little Laozi: "Trade vehicle upgrade materials for water or food! DM me if interested!"
"..."
Meng Qingyin was also looking forward to another giveaway event where people could share photos of their dinners.
Therefore, she was in no hurry to eat.
There was nowhere to sleep on the scooter, so she had to set up the tent before dark.
She is now incredibly grateful that she bought those outdoor survival supplies back then.
The stun gun, shovel, rope, camouflage bag, and even the tent all brought her a lot of convenience.
Meng Qingyin set up the tent as quickly as possible, keeping it close to her scooter, determined not to exceed the three-meter safety limit.
At six o'clock sharp, it suddenly got dark.
Without any warning or transition, it went completely dark in an instant.
It's like being in a brightly lit house when the power suddenly goes out—the kind of pitch-black darkness where you can't see your hand in front of your face.
There were no stars or moon in the sky; the world was shrouded in eerie darkness.
Whether it was Meng Qingyin's imagination or not, she seemed to hear some rustling sounds in the surrounding darkness.
She quickly crawled into the tent, connected the cable, and turned on the flashlight.
Bright light illuminated the small space inside the tent, where four boxes were neatly arranged; she had carried them over from the scooter.
The chat area was filled with panic.
Materialism: "It suddenly got dark, there wasn't a ray of light left, how terrifying!"
The Little Match Girl: "I always feel like there's some monster watching me from the shadows, and my hair stands on end!"
Drowning his sorrows in strong liquor: "Holy crap, there really are monsters in the dark! I went to relieve myself, and suddenly it got dark, and some thing bit my butt! I ran back to my car in a panic, barely escaping with my life!"
Zhao Wen: "Brother, are you alright?"
Drowning his sorrows in strong liquor: "A chunk of my buttock has been bitten off! Blood is gushing out, does anyone have any hemostatic medicine or gauze? Help!"
Prince: "Everyone, let's stay in the car. It's terrifying!"
"..."
Meng Qingyin closed the chat area, it seems that the other players are in the same situation as her.
She had no intention of investigating the monsters in the darkness. As the saying goes, if you don't court death, you won't die. She'd better stay obediently in the tent.
It seems there won't be any more dinner-sharing events tonight.
Meng Qingyin was already starving, and she still had to trade supplies after dinner, so she decided not to wait any longer. She took the leftover steamed buns and milk-flavored steamed buns from lunch, opened a bag of roast chicken, and started eating.
After quickly finishing her dinner, she ate a few more chicken heart fruits to cleanse her palate and quench her thirst.
I glanced at the [Highway Survival Management Group], but there was no useful information.
Meng Qingyin remembered that she had opened an electronic scale in the afternoon, which was just right to divide the chicken heart fruit.
She decided to put 100g in each serving.
100g contains about five or six of them, which is enough to quench your thirst, but it's definitely not enough to fill you up in one go.
But it's okay, quenching my thirst is enough.
She had considered it carefully; on average, a supply crate could yield 3-4 vehicle upgrade materials, while the availability of food, water, and other supplies was completely uncertain.
Her portion of chicken heart fruit was roughly equivalent to half a bottle of water.
She first checked her vehicle upgrade requirements: Upgrade materials needed: 8/20 plastic, 6/20 sheet metal, 16/20 planks, 0/3 tires, 0/1 battery, 0/2 rearview mirrors (Keep upgrading!)
To be honest, there's a significant difference.
However, Meng Qingyin felt that it wasn't a big problem.
She had two boxes of chicken heart fruit, but these things couldn't be kept for long. She only kept a little for herself, and the rest could probably be divided into a hundred or so portions for trading upgrade materials, which would be more than enough.
She opened the "Trades" section, which already contained a lot of transaction information.
Meng Qingyin glanced at the list and found that most players had to exchange some miscellaneous items for water or food.
Of course, some players also exchange vehicle upgrade materials for these.
Meng Qingyin weighed out 100g of chicken heart fruit and put it on the shelf, then set it to exchange for 5 plastic containers, and put 10 containers on the shelf in a row.
Vehicle upgrade materials are always useful, so having too many won't go to waste.
While everyone is short of water and food in the early stages, we should exchange for more.
Once it develops further, the market will definitely not be as good as it used to be.
Next, Meng Qingyin put 10 more servings of chicken heart fruit on the shelves, setting each serving to be exchanged for 5 servings of iron sheet.
Then came the planks, tires, batteries, and rearview mirrors.
