Chapter 61 The Brewery
The Rat King ultimately couldn't escape, because Sunflower and several other little ones were guarding nearby. The group of little ones worked together and drove the Rat King back.
Yu Qi, holding the Azure Nether Sword, grinned wickedly at the large black rat.
"Watch me, Meteor Chasing the Moon!" She concentrated her water elemental magic on the longsword in her hand and unleashed her attack on the giant rat.
Before long, the rat was riddled with thorns and knocked out by the poison on the Azure Nether Sword, foaming at the mouth and collapsing to the ground.
Yu Qi never eats rat meat, nor does he know how to break it down.
She threw the rat king directly into the distant desert before returning to her vehicle.
Finally, when she opened the golden treasure chest, a Flame Scorpion King jumped out!
Yu Qi exerted tremendous effort, using the Azure Nether Sword, breathing techniques, and water spirit magic, to finally kill the Flame Scorpion King!
She was panting heavily as she turned to check the resources she had allocated.
[Congratulations on obtaining the following items: Iron Block x299, Plastic x256, Glass x123, Tire x89, Universal Metal x18, Special Metal x15, Temperature-Controlled Tent x4, Temperature-Controlled Blanket x4... Vehicle Enhancement Card x12, Weapon Enhancement Card x2, Lucky Card x2, Monster Gathering Card x1, Demolition Card x1...]
Yu Qi's gaze fell on the temperature-controlled tent and the temperature-controlled blanket.
These two items were obtained from a silver treasure chest, which triggered a quadruple critical hit.
Now, she has a powerful air conditioner and a high-end intelligent control core with its own constant temperature system, so she doesn't really need these things.
She left behind a temperature-controlled tent and blankets, which she hung inside the trading shop.
Although it's not really necessary, it's better to be safe than sorry. What if a new instance suddenly appears that requires her to leave the vehicle and complete the level?
Let's keep one of these temperature-controlled tents and blankets.
Sure enough, the chat room erupted in cheers soon after.
"It's true that frequently visiting the trading shop of the big shots is incredibly blissful. I just managed to snag a temperature-controlled tent!"
"How are you guys so fast? I just sneaked in, saw the words 'constant temperature' and placed an order, but I only managed to snag a blanket!"
"Holy crap, what are you guys talking about? Why are there temperature-controlled tents and temperature-controlled blankets? Has the top hunter already gotten his hands on these kinds of goodies?"
"Yes, I just tried it, and this blanket has a good temperature-regulating effect. I really can't feel the heat outside when I'm curled up inside!"
"I'm so angry! I clearly saw it but didn't manage to grab it. When will the master hunter be able to make a few more of these temperature-controlled devices? I'll definitely come and grab them right away!"
The chat room was bustling with activity, but Yu Qi only glanced at it before continuing to check her resources.
[Congratulations on triggering a quadruple critical hit! You have obtained 4 blank cards and 4 intermediate Flame Whips!]
Yu Qi was indeed very pleased with this blank card with four times the critical hit rate. In the future, she could simply use this blank card to copy whatever she wanted.
For example, the skill duplication card she's been longing for—once she gets one, she can use these blank cards to copy it!
However, this flaming whip made her somewhat depressed.
What she wanted was a water-based weapon, and this whip was only mid-level, similar to the upgraded Azure Nether Sword.
"Seventh Brother, you should be secretly happy!" the assistant next to him shouted.
"What do you mean'secretly happy'? This is the only golden treasure chest, and we didn't even get any high-level weapons. What's there to be happy about?" Yu Qi muttered.
The assistant said speechlessly, "Do you think advanced weapons are like cabbages?"
"Don't think that the high-grade materials you got from killing those fire scorpions and that fire scorpion king are all high-grade materials. Let me tell you, even if you have enough high-grade materials, you can't make high-grade weapons!"
"Advanced weapons can only be crafted by weapon masters, because only these masters can better handle various advanced materials and fuse them together!"
"You managed to get four mid-level weapons, that's pretty good, okay? If you meet a weapon master, you can give him all four whips together, and maybe they can be fused into a high-level whip!"
After hearing this, Yu Qi was not so disappointed.
She collected all these resources, putting the important ones into the warehouse compartments.
Now that she's a well-known big shot, what should she do if someone she doesn't like, like someone who gets a resource clearing card and clears her resources?
In any case, we must proceed with caution!
Don't let it drift!
Finally, she returned to her home.
This time, the materials needed for the home upgrade have finally been gathered: three hundred pieces of wood, two hundred pieces of bronze, and one hundred pieces of silver...
Of course, there are also three hundred energy hearts.
She was heartbroken when she lost those three hundred Energy Hearts, but there was nothing she could do; her homestead had to be upgraded.
She also wants to unlock the armory, brewery, and all sorts of useful buildings!
Sure enough, as soon as she chose to upgrade, a new building appeared. The new building was wrapped in blue cloth and made a rumbling construction sound.
Yu Qi looked over with great interest, thinking it was the weapon shop she had been longing for.
But upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a winery!
