Chapter 38 Looting the Site, Fishing for Treasure Chests!
Chapter 38 Looting the Site, Fishing for Treasure Chests!
As dawn broke, Chen Hui woke up.
I took stock of yesterday's spoils.
I obtained approximately 4000 Mysterious Stones in total.
The harvest was quite good.
However, the strange occurrences within a fifty-mile radius seemed to have been completely eradicated.
No matter how hard Oda and Koi tried to sound the horn, the monsters that entered the station last night were only scattered.
It also did not trigger a second elite-level anomaly.
However, Chen Hui was not flustered.
After all, this is only the beginning.
The strange creature hunts humans during the rainy season.
The strange occurrences elsewhere are that once the humans in one place are wiped out, they will inevitably migrate to the next place.
By then, he will surely reap even greater rewards.
However, one cannot be idle during the day.
He unfolded the map and looked at the scattered stations on it.
One night, only 20% of the nearby stations remained.
He had previously memorized the locations of all the stations within a hundred-mile radius.
Those destroyed sites are now ownerless.
He has the [Great Sun Furnace] skill, which can recycle various buildings, so naturally he can't let these sites go to waste.
Although those sites are certainly badly damaged, some of the debris can always be recovered.
Moreover, there might be some hidden gems on the site.
We absolutely must get our hands on it.
He called Feng Ning'er over and explained his purpose.
Feng Ning'er's eyes lit up as well.
This is indeed a good way to get rich.
"We'll split the results from the site 50/50!" Feng Ning'er offered without hesitation.
After all, she put in a lot of effort in this matter, and she will probably be responsible for protecting Chen Hui at crucial moments.
In her eyes, she always believed that, without relying on architecture, she was stronger than Chen Hui in terms of individual combat strength.
"Okay," Chen Hui said without haggling.
He has the ability to recycle buildings, and that alone generates a significant amount of income.
Moreover, if it comes to something Chen Hui wants, Feng Ning'er probably won't compete with him for it.
And so, after handing everything over to Oda and Koi.
Feng Ning'er carried Chen Hui on her back and ran towards a destroyed station.
......
One hour later.
Feng Ning'er and Chen Hui did not look very good.
In this hour, we visited 4 stations.
Either it was completely destroyed by some strange force, leaving no treasures and no value for the building to be salvaged.
Either someone beats them to it and steals everything from the site.
It seems that many people know that daytime is a good time to make money.
However, neither Chen Hui nor Feng Ning'er were discouraged.
There are still many sites to be searched.
It's impossible for all sites to be like this.
Of course, we also need to be faster, lest someone else beat us to it again.
Feng Ning'er carried Chen Hui and sped up.
Before long, the two were delighted to find a station that didn't look too badly damaged.
It was a level 2 city wall with a range of 100 meters. A section of the wall had been pushed down, and the eerie fire had been extinguished.
There are about five wooden houses and some farmland inside.
Chen Hui and Feng Ning'er headed straight for the largest wooden house.
There might be supplies and treasures there that we didn't have time to take with us!
Now, it's all theirs!
The two entered the wooden house and, sure enough, saw a treasure chest inside.
It contains many strange stones, all green, more than a hundred of them!
"Make a small fortune!"
Chen Hui laughed and put the treasure chest into his storage bag.
Feng Ning'er also had a happy expression on her face.
On this one trip alone, she can get more than 500 strange stones!
Just as the two of them were preparing to go to other cabins to open treasure chests.
"Ta-da!"
Four burly men wielding knives rushed into the wooden house.
He laughed loudly:
"Another fish has taken the bait! Brothers, chop up the men and feed them to the dogs, and ladies, line up!"
These are familiar lines.
Chen Hui looked puzzled.
"Huh?! Where's my treasure chest?!" one of them shouted.
He then realized that the treasure chest he had placed there for fishing was gone.
"Ah~! The treasure chest is gone? How could it just disappear? That was the fishing gear that Vice Hall Master Xiong gave us; if we lose even one, we'll twist our heads off!"
The other burly man was so anxious that sweat dripped down his face.
For a moment, the burly men forgot what they were supposed to do.
"I'm saying... is it possible... I took that treasure chest?"
Chen Hui patted the storage bag at his waist leisurely.
"A storage bag!! It's a storage bag! Haha, this is a fat pig!! Brothers, kill him! Take the storage bag!"
These burly men were overjoyed.
Storage bags are valuable items; even offering them to Master Xiong would yield a considerable amount of strange stones as a reward.
"No! This storage bag belongs to Deputy Hall Master Hu! He's one of Deputy Hall Master Hu's men!"
One of the burly men recognized the origin of the storage bag.
"It really is! I've seen Deputy Hall Master Hu wear it before!"
The other person also recognized him.
He said with an unfriendly expression:
"Brothers, you've crossed the line. Hand over the treasure chest and come with us."
They knew that Deputy Hall Master Hu and Deputy Hall Master Xiong had always been at odds.
The other party knew perfectly well that this was Deputy Hall Master Xiong's territory, yet they still blatantly came to cause trouble, clearly intending to offend Deputy Hall Master Xiong.
If Deputy Hall Master Hu were to arrive in person, they would naturally not dare to do anything.
But the two underlings must be taken to Vice Hall Master Xiong for punishment.
"Will you do it or should I?" Chen Hui asked Feng Ning'er.
It seems these people are unaware that the so-called tiger has already died at his hands.
It doesn't matter. We've already offended the War God Society to death. We'll just kill them one by one and consider it a way to weaken their strength.
Feng Ning'er immediately took off the short bow.
Three invisible wind arrows shot out in succession.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~!"
Before the three burly men could react, they were shot in the head and splattered with fluid.
This is! A B-rank professional! And a second-tier one at that! Run!!
Seeing that things were not going well, the remaining burly man turned and ran.
But another arrow shot out and pierced his back.
After easily dealing with a few henchmen, Feng Ning'er began looting the corpse:
"I took care of it; everything they had is mine."
Chen Hui shrugged, indicating that he had no objection.
A few small fry, what good can they possibly do?
Just as Feng Ning'er was touching the corpse.
She heard something, her ears twitched, and she quickly went outside.
All I could see was a gaunt man outside, running desperately into the distance.
Feng Ning'er wanted to nock an arrow, but the person seemed to be a speed-type character and quickly ran away.
"One of our lookouts has escaped, and our whereabouts have been exposed."
Feng Ning'er frowned, turned to look at Chen Hui and said:
"These are people from the War God Society. Should we avoid them for now?"
The War God Society is a powerful force; if she were to be surrounded, she wouldn't be able to guarantee her safe escape.
"You're willing to part with a treasure chest containing a thousand strange stones?"
Chen Hui smiled.
Feng Ning'er immediately understood Chen Hui's meaning.
My eyes lit up!
Yes, these members of the War God Society set up a trap to lure people in.
If you prepare a treasure chest with thousands of strange stones every time...
That's incredible!
She really couldn't bear to part with it!
It's done!
Before the other side could react, quickly eliminate a few fishing spots.
The strange stone we obtained was far beyond our imagination!
"Wait for me, I'm going to take over all the buildings here."
[5 wooden cabins (lv2): 15 rare stones can be recycled.]
Two farmlands (lv2): 6 recyclable strange stones
[City Wall (lv2) 50 meters: Damaged, 1200 Strange Stones can be recovered]
"Not bad, we recovered more than 1200 strange stones, which is more profitable than opening treasure chests."
Chen Hui deliberately spoke loudly.
Feng Ning'er rolled her eyes:
"Hurry up, we're in a hurry, we don't want to run into that so-called deputy hall master."
After Chen Hui finished the retrieval, Feng Ning'er carried Chen Hui on her back and headed towards the next station.
