**[Vines +20]**
**['Lisa Greenwood's Shop' has been opened.]**
Looking at the pop-up window on her small screen, Lisa Greenwood now had a storage warehouse for her shop.
Although it was only ten slots, it was better than piling things up in this tiny room.
She tested the small screen's storage and retrieval functions with a mineral water bottle; it was instant and very convenient.
After finishing the test, Lisa checked her personal information to confirm what that person said yesterday.
Indeed, 20 Mana points were missing.
Too expensive, too much to afford.
She should go look for treasure chests first.
Lisa turned and flew out of the room, starting to search for any treasure chests that might be nearby.
Finding treasure chests during the day wasn't as easy as at night with the ambient lighting.
Lisa, while 'scanning' the ground with her eyes, munched boredly on a hot dog sausage.
When she finished and was about to discard the casing, she suddenly thought of something and tucked the casing into the pocket of her patient gown.
This beautiful and fantastical place should have less of this industrial pollution.
As for the patient gown she was wearing... although she was lucky enough to open a dress yesterday, she hadn't changed out of her patient gown because she hadn't showered in days and was going out to search today.
Anyway, it was already dirty, so a little more dirt shouldn't matter.
After flying for about half an hour, Lisa hadn't found a single supply chest.
However, she wasn't without gains.
During that half hour, she constantly monitored her Mana, and found that after such a long time, her Mana was still at 60.
Neither increasing nor decreasing.
Thus, she had a bold hypothesis.
That is, the Mana recovery rate might be exactly 1 point per minute.
If that were the case, then theoretically, as long as her Mana didn't drop to zero, she could keep flying.
This was good news for Lisa, at least allowing her to let loose more thoroughly.
That place looks very strange.
When Lisa flew to a relatively open area, she noticed a large clump of vines climbing diagonally up a tree.
It looked as if someone had pitched a tent under the vines.
Could it be a Shelter?
Although the entire forest seemed full of vitality and thriving life, remembering that someone had previously upgraded a Shelter using only vines, Lisa became cautious.
After observing the area from all sides for more than ten minutes and finding no doors or windows, she boldly flew over.
Reaching out and pulling aside some vines, Lisa saw a wooden house that had mostly collapsed.
Lisa, who struggled to squeeze inside, was met with a scene of disarray.
Tables, chairs, and even bookshelves had all fallen to the ground due to decay.
They were even covered in moss, wild grass, and other plants.
Although it looked dilapidated, Lisa didn't just leave it at that.
After all, it was such a well-hidden place; what if there was a treasure chest?
So Lisa searched the areas that hadn't yet collapsed.
She even used all her strength to flip over the collapsed cabinets.
"Ugh..."
After searching for a long time, Lisa didn't find a treasure chest, but she did find something more interesting.
A notebook.
A palm-sized notebook with the words **[Albert's Alchemy Notes]** engraved on its cracked, brown beast-hide cover.
The specific material of this notebook was unclear.
But the clearly visible text inside allowed Lisa to confirm that this item had not been corroded by time like the tables and chairs.
Is it because there's Mana flowing through it?
Lisa, who could barely sense the Mana fluctuations on it, thought.
It was also interesting.
She had never seen the script used on the cover or inside, yet she could surprisingly understand it.
Could it be the script of Kalim World?
Is it a transmigration benefit given by the World's Will?
Lisa didn't know, but it didn't matter; she just tucked it into her pocket and took it with her.
Having made a small gain, after seeing that there was nothing left to search in this dilapidated house, she turned and left the room to continue searching for treasure chests.
In one morning, Lisa found two treasure chests.
They were the same size as the one from last night.
One contained a 500ml bottle of tea, a 500g coconut bun, an apple, and a towel.
The other contained a 500ml can of snowball beer and a packet of Top Ramen instant noodles, with extra quantity at no extra cost.
There was even a wooden bowl about twenty centimeters wide and ten centimeters high!
It was quite well-prepared, focusing on being thoughtful.
She had figured it out.
A treasure chest usually contains one drink, one to two food items, and one daily necessity, though the daily necessities are bizarre, and anything could appear.
But no matter what, this was clearly intended to prevent everyone from suffering.
So she found two vines, tied the two treasure chests together, and flew towards home, carrying them.
This morning she had experimented with many ways, and found that as long as it didn't exceed her own weight, she could lift things.
She was one meter seventy tall, and weighed about one hundred.
She could still lift two boxes.
The reason Lisa took the boxes with her was mainly because her home lacked everything, and a few extra boxes could be used as storage cabinets.
"Hmm? Did you notice something just flew by?"
Someone who was searching for supplies suddenly looked up at the sky and asked the bespectacled guy next to him.
"Don't be lazy. Even if your Mana is used up, you still need to collect materials as quickly as possible. Who knows when this damned place will ambush you. I don't believe what that World's Will said about a seven-day novice period."
"No, I really saw it. Just now, a black shadow."
"Really?"
The bespectacled man, who had been diligently chopping wood, put down his long sword and looked at the other person seriously.
"Mm."
"It seems we can't stay here. Let's go chop trees to the south."
With that, the bespectacled man vigilantly looked around, shouldered his long sword and wood, and slipped away, complaining as he walked, "I should have exchanged it for an axe. A long sword is completely unsuitable for chopping trees."
"Ugh..."
Seeing this, the person who saw the black shadow also picked up the wood from the ground and followed behind.
Lisa, of course, noticed the two of them.
But she had no intention of going up to greet them.
In fact, after darting around in the sky all morning, she had seen many people coming out to gather supplies.
Those with Mana used Gathering Skill; those without Mana used weapons or tools to gather.
In short, everyone was working hard to gather more.
Of course, this had nothing to do with Lisa.
She just wanted to live well by herself, and then see if she could meet those who harmed her in the future and give them some unforgettable lessons.
After returning to the Shelter, Lisa could finally catch her breath.
She drank some water, then gathered all the supplies into one treasure chest, and then took out the coconut bun, munching on it while checking the world channel.
The world channel was still the same; many people were posting, too many to keep up with even with a locked screen, and useful information was scarce.
However, the regional chat was not only exceptionally lively, but also contained a lot of useful things.
As for what was useful...
It made Lisa very clear about the environment she was currently in.
