Chapter 166 Taking Stock of the Resource Box
The resource point event, which had been bustling all day, has finally come to an end.
Li Sijing put the leftover peach pits into her mustard seed space to store them.
Then they replaced the dried rice with another batch before opening the regional channel.
The first thing she checked was the real-time number of people: 8612/10000.
Li Sijing remembered that there were still more than 9,500 people online before she went to bed last night, so nearly 900 people died in one event?
Compared to the previous world, the death toll has decreased. I wonder if half the population will survive in the region when this world ends?
As the event ended and everyone in the area came ashore, the chat in the area channel was bustling with activity.
"Aaaaaah, I'm freezing to death!"
"Oh my god, my hands and feet feel itchy, red and swollen, could this be frostbite?"
"In such cold weather, and after soaking in cold water for so long, isn't it normal to get frostbite? What's the big deal?"
"Oh well, I can't be frugal anymore. I'd better turn on the air conditioner! Otherwise, I'll get sick, and that would be a waste."
"So, how did you all get out of this event?"
"Harvest? We're lucky we didn't freeze to death, what harvest could we possibly have?"
"Yeah, this event felt like a complete disaster. We worked ourselves to the bone and were freezing to death, and all we got was half a pound of lobster."
"The key point is that we also spent 20 units of metal to buy props, so when you add it all up, we actually lost a lot of money."
"Yes, yes, that's how I felt too, so after going into the water once, I resolutely refused to go back."
"Alas, if the landlords hadn't run out of surplus grain, who would willingly suffer like this!"
"But I never expected that all my efforts would not even be enough for me to have a full meal today."
"Is it really that bad? I'm glad I didn't participate in this event."
"It was too cold. I touched the seawater by the roadside and decided not to participate in the activity."
"Me too, I can't swim, so I really can't participate in this activity."
"Although I didn't gain anything, I feel quite satisfied to have a day off."
"As expected, one can't always strive for improvement. If I had known, I would have just given up and gotten a free day off."
"The mentality of the people upstairs is unacceptable. Every day you slack off now, your chances of surviving in the future decrease."
"Exactly. Those upstairs who say they haven't achieved much are ultimately just lacking in ability and not putting in the effort."
"I spent four hours in the water today and used up 60 units of metal, but I got three pounds of fish, so I made a small profit. The key is that I finally have meat to eat, and I also improved my skills."
"Upstairs, I'm a bit more durable than you. I was in the water for a total of five hours and finally got four pounds of fish."
"Pretty much. Anyway, I'm quite satisfied with what I got today, even though it was a bit tough."
"Sigh, I'm happy to have meat to eat, but my whole body is aching and itchy. I don't know if I'll catch a cold."
"The people upstairs represent the current situation of most people. As long as we work hard, we will definitely survive."
"I'm more curious about what the big shots got. Who ended up with those nine high-level resource boxes?"
"The big shots are definitely different from us ordinary people. As far as I know, the big shot Liu Yizhou got at least five catties of meat and a high-level resource box."
"By the way, the second to last high-level resource box seems to have been obtained by Li Sijing. I happened to arrive at the time and watched her being teleported away."
"I'm so upset! I just saw the high-level resource box and hadn't even swum over yet when Li Sijing got to shore. What a pity."
"What's there to regret? Do you think you can swim over and still snatch it?"
"That's hard to say, what if! There were a lot of us back then, even ants can kill an elephant if there are enough of them!"
"Ah, I know that. The last high-level resource box that appeared ten minutes before the event ended was snatched by Fang Tiancheng."
"I was there at the time. My God, Fang Tiancheng really lived up to his reputation as a great demon. He was too ruthless."
"Fang Tiancheng went berserk in the water, luckily I ran fast."
"By the way, it seems that Wu Aiguo, the big boss, also snatched one."
"Robbed one? No way? Boss Wu shouldn't be that kind of person."
"What's impossible about that? Although Boss Wu is kind-hearted, he's not a saint."
“That’s right. Right now, strength is everything. You can’t hold someone to the standards of a saint just because they are kind-hearted.”
"Exactly! If others can take it, why can't he? It's better for him to take it than for someone else to take it!"
"You bunch of brainwashed fans, you've been brainwashed!"
"roll!"
...
Because of Wu Aiguo, a war of words broke out on the regional channel, and many people were dragged into it.
Seeing so many people defending Wu Aiguo, Li Sijing was honestly quite envious.
As for the other party stealing high-level resource boxes, she thought that was perfectly normal!
If Wu Aiguo doesn't have the strength, even if he doesn't try to steal it, someone else will. So why can't Wu Aiguo steal it?
Li Sijing was quite interested in the online arguments in the area and continued watching with great interest.
Looking at those strange and unusual sentences in the area, she was truly impressed by the eloquence of these netizens.
While observing these linguistic arts, Li Sijing also gathered intelligence in the area.
After checking several times, she had a preliminary understanding of the whereabouts of the nine high-level resource boxes.
First, she herself has one, Liu Yizhou has one, Wu Aiguo has another, and Fang Tiancheng has one.
Xu Yongkang, who traded bullets with her last time, seems to have gotten one as well.
These five were all people she had dealt with, but as for the remaining four winners, Li Sijing knew nothing about them.
Two of them were quite well-known in the region, but Li Sijing had never met them.
As for the other two, they were just bystanders; Li Sijing was truly unaffected.
However, to obtain a high-level resource box, one must have some means; indeed, there are quite a few hidden talents among them.
Of all these people, the one who surprised Li Sijing the most was Fang Tiancheng.
She hadn't expected that Fang Tiancheng would actually receive a high-level resource box in the last ten minutes of the event.
It's likely that Fang Tiancheng went to the last underwater space immediately after she came ashore!
However, being able to quickly reach the vicinity of the high-level resource box and break through the encirclement among the crowd is remarkable.
This requires not only skill, but also a lot of luck. Is she really the only one with bad luck?
She and Fang Tiancheng have now formed a grudge, and if they meet again, neither of them will let the other off the hook.
As for this high-level resource box, I wonder what kind of skill the other party has opened, and whether it will be better than her Eagle Eye.
Li Sijing felt a little worried, but when she thought that she was no longer the person she used to be, her worries immediately subsided.
Now, she possesses perfect swordsmanship, combat awareness, the Black Tortoise Scale Armor, eagle eyes, and a pistol, which should be sufficient for her self-defense.
