11 Market Disturbance

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the dark wasteland, Lin Yue looked at the stiff corpse of the mutated sheep. He grabbed the iron spear with both hands and stepped on its neck to pull the iron spear out.

At the same time, a system voice suddenly sounded.

[Do you want to dissect the mutated creature?]

'Eh? Is there such a function?'

However, he did not hesitate and chose 'yes'.

[You have obtained Mutated Mutton x10kg, Sheepskin x1, Fangs x2]

Only the skeleton and internal organs of the mutated sheep were left on the ground.

This was like a scene that only appeared in games, making Lin Yue fall into deep thought.

However, if he really took it as a game, the consequences would be disastrous.

Lin Yue carried the iron ax and spear and returned to the shelter. He made a torch and lit it with a match.

In the wasteland wrapped in endless darkness, the light of the fire could be seen jumping through the cracks of the shelter that stood like a reef in the sea.

After confirming that the door was locked, Lin Yue sat by the bed and heaved a sigh of relief.

He ended this second day by killing a large mutated creature.

He had gained a lot today. Not only did he gain a lot from killing the mutated sheep, but he also had 16 unopened wooden treasure chests.

Today's gains were much more bountiful than yesterday's.

Before checking the group, Lin Yue decided to open the treasure chests first.

There were no surprises from the sixteen wooden treasure chests.

Twelve bottles of water, three packets of instant noodles, and 500gms of bread.

Lin Yue was satisfied.

Altogether, he had 14 bottles of water, 3 packets of instant noodles, and 3 loaves of bread that weighed 500 grams each. It was enough to last two days. If he was thrifty, it could last for three to four days.

After all, he had enough water that almost the whole group lacked.

It was the second day after entering this survival world. The three days survival limit of humans in case of thirst was not far away.

His water could be exchanged for better things.

For example, a certain person was still holding the soilless culture set in his hand.

Speaking of which, the seller, Zheng Jing, had obtained this thing by opening a copper treasure chest. Then, what would the copper treasure chest he had just obtained give him?

Lin Yue opened the treasure chest.

[You have obtained Inventory Expansion (Small) x1, Emergency Medicine Kit x1]

Wait. What? Inventory expansion? Emergency medicine kit?

Lin Yue was surprised. There was such a good thing?

As expected of a copper treasure chest!

He looked at the two things which could not come out of the treasure chest because the ten slots of the inventory were filled, and felt that the expansion of the inventory was necessary.

After using Inventory Expansion (Small), Lin Yue looked at his inventory.

[Inventory Capacity 10/20]

Sure enough.

Then…

Lin Yue looked at the emergency medicine box.

[Emergency Medicine Kit]

Medicines: 10 painkillers, 30 antidiarrheal , 5 bottles of iodine, 10 bandages, 30 band-aids, 2 anesthetic, 2 epinephrine

I'll be damned, Lin Yue praised.

How was this an emergency kit? This was simply a life-saving kit.

Once he encountered some special situations, this small medicine box had things that could save his life in that critical moment!

This was much more valuable than the soilless culture set that Zheng Jing had obtained.

In this extreme survival game, the existence of the small medicine kit was akin to a powerful weapon.

Painkiller tablets, iodine, bandages, and band-aids would greatly reduce the chances of injuries worsening.

The antidiarrheal medicine was also a life-saving item. In this unfamiliar environment, it was normal to eat something bad. If you get a serious diarrhea, you would start dehydrating. If you did not treat it in time, you would fall into an extremely dangerous state, causing you to fall into an extreme passive state regardless of whether it was when you were moving or in battle.

As for the anesthetic, Lin Yue felt that it was not useful for the time being. After all, he was not a medical student. He did not know how much to use.

There was no need to talk about epinephrine.

This was the most valuable thing in this box.

Whether it was in television dramas, movies, or documentaries, Lin Yue had seen the magical use of this thing countless times.

It could be said that in certain situations, just this thing could instantly reverse the situation!

Lin Yue was excited.

He opened the small medicine box and carefully checked it before closing it again. He put it back in the inventory and heaved a sigh of relief.

On the second day after coming to this world, he had already resolved the huge issue of injury infection.

Opening a bottle of water, Lin Yue sighed.

After spending 4 stones to change the door to a stone door, he felt more at ease.

He took a big gulp of water to ease the thirst in his mouth, Lin Yue lay on the bed and opened the group chat.

"Water! Water! Give me water! Someone, give me water, I will do anything!"

"I have both wood and iron. Give me water!"

"F*ck, why is there no water? Why is there no water?!"

"There's still no water after digging six meters deep. Who has dug out water?"

"I pinched my nose and drank my urine. It's a little sweet."

"F*ck, mine is sweet too."

"I don't want to drink it. The smell is too strong, wuwu."

"Act coy all you want If you want to die. Everyone, I'll drink first. Do as you please!"

"Where did the water seller, Lin Yue, go? I have something good. I'll bid if you auction water!"

Sure enough.

From the group chat, Lin Yue could clearly feel the extreme desire for water.

He looked at his inventory.

13 bottles of water. About 9.8 liters.

There was enough to drink, and even surplus.

Moreover, as long as he continued to farm the small mutated creatures tomorrow, he could obtain more water and food.

However, how long could the water act as a hard currency?

At the same time, he realized something.

People were dying.

If he kept holding the water to himself, more and more people might die from lack of water which would in turn reduce the number of resources mined and sold in the trading center.

It just so happened that he was in a wasteland which lacked all the resources. He needed the resources of these people.

If he let them die, it would be a vicious cycle which would instead harm him.

This could not continue.

The next few days would be very important.

Lin Yue decided to exchange water for resources from time to time.

This was also for the long term.

Lin Yue felt that as people continued to open the treasure chests, water would sooner or later lose its purchasing power.

It was not a secret that he had a lot of water.

In that case, he might as well…

[Seller: Lin Yue]

[Auction: 100 ml of mineral water x 20]

[Requirements: Iron, stone, blueprint, or other]

[Seller's Note: 20 portions. Everyone can only bid once. The highest bidders will get them.]

Lin Yue knew that there were also some people selling water at high prices in the market. Him doing this was tantamount to disrupting the entire market.

However, it did not matter.

Who could locate anyone in this desolate world?
