Chapter 47 Difficult Choices
With the last three cans, Yu Qi's expression became even more devout.
She gently tapped open the first can that gleamed with gold, and heard a click.
The outer wooden blocks crumbled, revealing something resembling a black weapon inside.
With an expectant look on her face, she solemnly took out this "weapon".
However, when she held this pitch-black thing in her hands, she was completely dumbfounded.
What's going on? Why did a shiny gold can turn into a fire poker?
It really is a fire poker, and it even drips black charcoal!
Yu Qi's vision went black. Could it be that in the turtle family, gold is the lowest color? Then why is this golden light so dazzling? It almost blinded me the first time I saw it!
Unconvinced, she gently opened the second golden can, and with a click, a book with a golden cover was revealed inside.
The cover is written with a brush, giving it a simple and natural look with an indescribable charm.
[Taoist Breathing Method: The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, Three gives birth to all things, and all things arise naturally.]
A simple and concise introduction, without wasting any ink.
Yu Qi knew that this phrase came from the Tao Te Ching, but she didn't know what the effect of this breathing method was.
Why does this road survival game feel like it's getting more and more fantastical? Will future high-level battles involve all sorts of secret techniques and tricks, like in a fantasy blockbuster?
Yu Qi suddenly remembered the little assistant's reminder. Not long ago, Lao Liu mentioned that some monsters could get secret manuals and top-level skills from the turtle merchant.
Those monsters, like humans, are also growing stronger through various means, and we'll definitely clash with them someday.
As for how far into the future that is, Yu Qi had no idea.
But she knew that day would come.
Her heart grew heavy, but she continued to open the last can.
This can is different from the others; as soon as the outer wooden board cracked, a blue light floated out from inside.
The blue light circled in the air a few times, then, as if it had discovered something good, it joyfully rushed into her brow.
Yu Qi felt a cool sensation between her brows, and her whole body felt as if she were immersed in the ocean, feeling incredibly comfortable.
Not long after, the strange feeling between her brows completely disappeared, and she slowly opened her eyes, her black pupils flashing with alternating blue and gold light.
This is a skill!
The skill is called Water Spirit Technique, which can condense water in the air and control water flow.
It's a bit like a superpower in a novel, but she also knows clearly that the upper limit of this water spirit technique is very high, and it may even be able to sever the sea in the future!
Great stuff, great stuff!
Now she was absolutely certain that the canned food with the golden glow was the top-tier canned food, and it was more useful than those cards.
But what kind of turtle was the fire poker that was found before?
Yu Qi squatted in front of the fire poker and studied it for a long time, while his little assistant quietly brought the crystal ball control center closer.
"You're unlucky, aren't you? You've unearthed so many good things, including a magical breathing technique."
"You're lucky, aren't you? How did you end up with a piece of firewood? It's even crumbling. I bet some turtle family member put it in as a prank."
"I knew it! There's no way anyone in this world could be so incredibly lucky!"
The assistant felt better, but Yu Qi still felt that this fire stick was definitely a good thing, but he just couldn't figure it out yet!
She carefully placed the fire poker into the storage compartment, collecting even the crumbs that fell from the cart.
The assistant cannot understand, but it respects its bound user.
Finally, Yu Qi sorted through the items she had obtained and felt that she had gained a lot today!
Even if she couldn't find any more resource boxes, she was still very satisfied!
[System: Congratulations on opening ten purple or even higher-level cans within half an hour, triggering the Canned Food Master badge.]
[Canned Food Master: Bronze Badge. Wearing this badge gives you a chance to trigger a double burst of canned food resources. Claim it now?]
[5, 2...]
"Get it!" Yu Qi shouted hurriedly.
This damn system is getting worse and worse; it's missing another number!
Luckily, she reacted quickly!
As soon as the voice fell, a bronze badge descended from the sky and landed in Yu Qi's hand.
She burst into laughter when she saw the words on the badge.
Now there's a chance to trigger a critical hit when opening cans! This badge is really useful!
But with so many badges hanging together, it's a bit heavy and makes my neck tired.
Yu Qi muttered to herself, wondering if she should remove a few.
Sixth Assistant: "..."
This is the first time I've seen someone complain about having too many badges, saying it's tiring for their neck!
"Open your watch, go to your personal center, and then click on the badge wearing module. There you will find the badge hiding feature."
"Once stealth mode is activated, the badge is bound to you and you won't feel any weight."
The sixth brother pointed out.
After Yu Qi found it, she clicked on the invisible button, and things really did become much easier immediately.
If I had known about this model, I wouldn't have had to keep wearing that heavy badge and running around everywhere!
Yu Qi felt like she had missed out on a fortune!
She collected the cracked planks from the ground and threw them all into the Seeking Immortals Homestead as upgrade materials.
Then continue driving forward, asking Lao Liu to remind him to stop if he encounters a resource box.
But after searching for several more hours, she only found the lowest-grade log chest!
Indeed, luck is a mysterious thing; there are gains and losses.
However, Yu Qi was still very satisfied!
I made a fortune today!
Since she couldn't find any resource boxes, she simply stopped the armored vehicle and enjoyed a delicious meal of steamed river crabs and crab roe noodles at Black Cat Restaurant.
Before coming to the survival game, Yu Qi brought the refrigerator over, which contained some soft drinks.
She casually opened a can of orange soda and felt incredibly satisfied.
Even in a survival game, you need to eat well to feel happy and survive!
After finishing the meal, Yu Qi faced a difficult decision.
She found a badge upgrade card inside the tortoise merchant's can.
So, which badge should we upgrade?
Speed Master increases speed by 10%, which can improve overall strength.
The Eco Master Badge can dismantle unclaimed vehicles and convert them back into basic resources.
The chicken-killing maniac may seem useless, but in reality, he is still useless.
The Unboxing Maniac Badge is the best, it's a triple critical hit!
The newly acquired Can Opening Master badge also has amazing effects.
You know, she can tell the quality of these cans! The cans she opens from now on are bound to be good, and if she gets a critical hit, that would be incredible!
