(MTL) Apocalypse Lord

Chapter 72 Hoarding 2

In this world, there are always some people who are quick-thinking and take the lead everywhere. There are always people who are slow to react and fall behind.

After the spring, Shao Hua focused on saving money to replace the practical blue outfit, but did not think too much.

However, one day, he suddenly discovered that the price of food has generally risen by 50%-70%, and some dishes that he wants to eat are out of stock.

"What's going on?" Shao Hua was secretly surprised, "Is the game world going to have a food shortage?"

Without high-level equipment, low-level equipment can be used. But if there is not enough food, the player has no other possibility except starving to death.

Thinking of this, Shao Hua's heartbeat suddenly quickened, and he rushed to the restaurant without saying a word.

The products in the system store are notoriously easy to use but expensive. Under normal circumstances, there is always surplus left. But today, the system shelves are empty and extremely clean.

Upon seeing this, Shao Hua's heart sank to the bottom.

what to do?

In an instant, my mind was blank, and I couldn't remember anything.

At this time, Chef A walked out of the back kitchen and placed three multi-grain steamed buns and two bowls of porridge on the shelf.

Shao Hua was surprised and happy, and quickly bought it.

So in the blink of an eye, the shelves were empty again.

"Mixed-grain steamed buns with 50 copper coins and a bowl of white porridge with 50 copper coins. It doesn't matter if you buy it once, but you go to the restaurant every day. How many days can you save money?" Shao Hua was only happy for a while, and his expression became solemn. What can I do in the future?" After

thinking about it, another resident quickly approached.

Seeing that the shelves were empty, they were disappointed, "How come the food in the restaurant is gone? Will food be rarer and more precious than equipment in the future?"

Shao Hua, "..."

He suddenly realized that he was thinking too much. Even if he has enough copper coins and is willing to buy food in restaurants at high prices, he may not be able to buy them.

**On

the 258th day, the situation got worse.

There are no players who will set up a stall to sell, and the cooked food is privately circulated among acquaintances.

Before going out and after hunting, residents seized the opportunity to run to the restaurant, and then sat in the lobby and waited. The NPC's front feet just put the food on the shelf, and the players' back feet swarmed, looting like crazy.

At this time, it is really fast and slow. Whether you can buy it depends on your movement speed and reaction speed.

Because of this, later, waiting in restaurants are often assassins, archers, and other professions with significantly higher agility.

Others, such as warriors and mages, have given up fighting and are thinking of other ways.

**In the

warehouse, Yunling is taking inventory.

This is a newly added habit after the Spring Festival, just to keep track of the specific amount of strategic materials.

On the premise of ensuring that the inventory grows slowly, she occasionally increases the food supply of the restaurant as appropriate. If you have bad luck on the day and don't get much, then don't increase it.

The situation is temporarily stabilized after one come and two.

At the end of the inventory, Yunling showed satisfaction, "I have stocked a lot of materials and finished products, enough to support a long period of time." As he

spoke, the message jumped out.

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Brother, I want to tell you two things. ]

Yunling replied casually, "You said."

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: First thing, there is a lunatic in the territory who wants to move to Lingyun City to live. It is said that the First Territory is the safest, but other safe areas cannot be trusted. ]

Yunling, "..."

Yunling: "If you remember correctly, there are two cities between City F and City S?"

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: That's why he is said to be a lunatic. 】

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: The game will become harder and harder, is it easy and safe to go to Lingyun City on foot? ]

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: But that's not what I want to say. He packed up his luggage and set off. Only after reaching the border of City F did he discover that the system would not allow players to leave the city. ]

Yunling feels like he is listening to the story, everything is very mysterious, "Why would you know?"

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: If you can't go to Lingyun City, I will go back to Xintong Town, and cry when I see people. Said he was pitted by the system. ]

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: It is also the first time I heard that players can only stay in this city and cannot visit. 】

"Maybe the system is deliberately set this way?" Yunling guessed.

Then she asked, "What about the second thing?"

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Does Lingyun City lack food? How much Xintong Town can sell to you. ]

Yunling laughed, "I don't know what will happen in the future. I have extra rations and don't put them in the warehouse?"

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Xintong Town is different from Lingyun City. There are few residents, the food consumed every day is limited, and the pressure is not that great. ]

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: In fact, Xintong Town is Xintong Town because the population is not up to standard...]

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: The most important thing is that people know big people Guy is to hug the thigh, I'm different! The reason for my confession with the gangster is to raise the gangster one day! ]

Yunling's eyes are full of smiles, "I am very ambitious."

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Just say it! Give me a chance! 】

Hospitality is difficult, she is not polite.

Yun Ling said straightforwardly, "You dare to give, I dare to ask."

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: There are sea areas near Xintong Town, and a lot of seafood can be salvaged every day. It's a rare meal, and it's good to improve the meal. The residents can hardly bear it every day. ]

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Wait a minute, I will make a list, and I will give you all the extra seafood. 】You

can choose only when you have enough food and clothing. When there is no food to eat, everything tastes good.

Yunling deeply understands this truth, so how much Zhao Xintong gives and how much she accepts, "How to check out? Copper coin transactions are settled with bandages and equipment?"

[City F-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Copper coins. ]

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: I need money to upgrade the territory building. ]

Yunling simply responded, "Okay." The

deal was concluded, Lingyun City's food shortage dilemma eased, Xintong Town accelerated the pace of construction, and both parties benefited.

[Name: Sweet Potato Seed]

Quality: Normal

Use Effect: A piece of sweet potato will be harvested after sowing. The specific harvest depends on the land conditions and growth conditions.

【Name: Potato Seed】

Quality: Normal

Use Effect: A piece of potato will be harvested after sowing. The specific harvest depends on the land conditions and growth conditions.

【Name: Rice Seed】

Quality: Normal

Use Effect: A piece of rice will be harvested after sowing. The specific harvest depends on the land conditions and growth conditions.

In addition, there are seven or eight other crop seeds such as linen, cotton, and sorghum.

Feng Hui chose two and put them away carefully. Then he put on his gear and went out with a half-old linen backpack on his back.

Walking in the wild, from time to time players pass by her. Most of them are teams, a few are solo players, and only occasionally meet one.

Feng Hui walked in a hurry, pointed clearly, and almost had an afterimage when running.

"Fortunately, 2 agility and 1 physical strength." She secretly rejoiced, "The fighting ability is not strong, but I can definitely be among the first-class level!"

This run is thirty minutes. Feng Hui finally stopped when she caught sight of the familiar scenery.

It was a field of wheat, with golden wheat ears drooping, waiting for the player to harvest.

Feng Hui checked closely and found that, except for a few nearby plants that had been eaten by wild animals, the other crops were fine.

She was full of joy, "It looks like I was lucky today." She

took out the machete and bowed her head to harvest.

In the perception of ordinary players, the wild resources are system refreshes, but this is not the case.

By chance, Feng Hui accidentally dropped the seeds in the mud pit.

She wanted to pick it up, but she was cleverly flashed, but after a few thoughts flashed in her mind, she didn't act. Instead, cover the soil, water it moderately, and watch the changes.

Days passed day by day.

The seed germinates, grows quickly, and produces a piece of potato, which is no different from other crops in the wild. Only then did Feng Hui understand the correct usage of the seed.

From then on, she sowed the seeds in remote corners, let the crops grow freely, and waited until time to harvest.

Because there is no one to take care of them, the growth of the crops can only be considered average. When there is more, it produces 28 and 29, and when it is less, it produces 21 and 22.

However, Feng Hui is very satisfied. These gains are enough for her to eat and wear warmth and live a comfortable life.

During the planting process, accidents often happen.

Sometimes the crops will be ruined by wild beasts, uprooted and nothing is left; sometimes the crops will be harvested in advance by passing players.

On several occasions, she was even unlucky enough to be targeted. Other players seemed to realize that the chances of "refreshing" crops in certain areas were particularly high, so they ran around and guarded.

For this reason, Feng Hui had to change the planting place frequently and ran farther and farther.

Cut off the last ear of wheat and put it in the backpack. She looked at the direction and ran to the next planting site after a short rest.

It's a pity that this time I wasn't very lucky. I was supposed to get a large slice of sweet potatoes, but now I haven't seen anything. The surroundings are messy, as if they have been ravaged by beasts.

"Next time there is no harvest, you have to consider changing the place for sowing." Feng Hui muttered, taking out the sweet potato seeds and digging up the soil to plant them.

The so-called sweet potato seeds are actually sweet potato seedlings. Dig a pit, pour some water, and it will take care of the rest-planting in the game is as simple as that.

Feng Hui opened the panel and saw that she was contaminated with a negative state because of her "excessive fatigue". She couldn't help but smile. "It seems that I can only return to the territory first. After I have a good rest, I will go to other locations to harvest."

"Anyway, sowing always It's better than wandering aimlessly and searching for resources. What kind of seeds are buried in, and what materials will be harvested in the future. Things are simple and straightforward."

"In addition, the income is relatively stable. Although there are unexpected situations from time to time, as the planting sites increase, 40-50 units of resources can be harvested every day, which is enough for living expenses."

"On the way back, on the way to the planting site, I occasionally found Practical crops can also be collected easily, and they can be used as additional income." After the

calculations were clear, she was determined, and ran back to her territory.

**

Day 259.

The panic is even worse. Some players set up stalls to sell top-quality props, but they don't even need copper coins, equipment, and only exchange for food.

For example -

"!! Skills upgrade card after use C-Class variant class B, class B become A-level, A-level change S-Class,"

"still learning as a low-level skills early in the game it was still worried worry how to enhance the combat effectiveness of it?? With a skill upgrade card, the road to the super strong will be opened from now on!"

"Ultra rare card, only dropped by BOSS, now it can be exchanged with food, and everyone who passes by will come and take a look!"

Someone leaned forward, "If Was it originally S-level? After using the card, will it become SS-level?" The

stall owner replied, "S-level is full, and skill upgrade cards cannot be used."

Someone asked, "Upgrade one skill, or all skills? "

stall:" of course a. "

a man curled his lip," S-class C-class rose to three cards, which is asking too much! "

stall:" starting from the C-class, poor foundation can only prove that you can not The blame card is not easy to use."

There are many players who consulted, and there are very few quotes, and even fewer reliable ones.

The stall owner was depressed and broke. He believes that the price is not high, who knows that he can't wait for someone who is predestined.

He couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the situation is so bad? No one cares about S-level items (skill upgrade cards). Can't exchange rations?

The stall owner was suspicious of life, and Yun Ling stopped in front of the stall, "quote a suitable price, I want the

card ." No matter how good the card is, I can't eat it.

The stall owner lowered his psychological expectations and quoted a conscience price.

Yunling thought it was acceptable, so he agreed.

The deal is concluded.

The stall owner breathed a sigh of relief-for the next seven days, there is no need to worry that the whole family will starve to death.
