Zhang Zhiyin absorbed the core of the Goat Leader, and the effects were remarkable. His Ice ability rose to rank 2, almost rank 3, and was just one step away from breaking through to rank 3. He let out a breath and guessed that with this progress, he would be able to leave Dragon's End Valley when his Ice ability rose to rank 5.
On this day, the sun was shining brightly, and the sky was bright. However, Zhang Zhiyin was an Ice ability user, and the more rainy and snowy it was, the more advantageous it was for him. The bright sun would only weaken his ability.
He looked at the weather and decided to take a day off to refine medicine in the cave.
The medicine system in was relatively innovative, but it was also very deceptive. In the game, one could only buy ordinary medicine like penicillin and band-aids. They could only treat external injuries and replenish a small amount of blood. Moreover, the effects were extremely slow, and they could not be relied on to fight monsters. Some players complained, and the official reply was, "Dear, that's why the casualty rate in the apocalypse is so high. Isn't it just reality?"
However, if everything was so deceptive, then the game could no longer be played.
Therefore, first of all, it was possible to use RMB to buy medicine that could quickly replenish blood in the game store. The game store categorized them as "miracle medicine." Secondly, players could learn the Medicine Concoction skill. The Medicine Concoction skill was also divided into two types. One was "Scientific Concoction" that could be learned in the game, but players who learned Scientific Concoction could only make ordinary medicine like band-aids in the early stages. Later on, when the level of Medicine Concoction was high enough, they could develop their own or use prescriptions to make high-grade medicine. The other was "Xuanmen Medicine". The products made by Xuanmen Medicine were all "elixirs". Although the effect was not as good as the ones bought directly from the item store, it was still much better than band-aids.
Dajia studied Concoction in university, and he cried because of this setting in . In the end, he left the game and did not want to play anymore. He felt that the setting of was looking down on science and was a serious violation of the scientific concept of development. However, he later discovered that the first label of when it was released was "Xuanhuan."
Zhang Zhiyin bought from the game store and directly learned . In the past, he didn't pay much attention to it. He just casually refined some low-grade blood tonic to practice, and his Medicine Refinement Skill actually rose to Level 2.
Zhang Zhiyin took out the materials she had accumulated over the past few days from her space. She sorted them out and compared them to the "Encyclopedia" to see what kind of medicine she could refine now. She discovered that there was still a large pile of materials that couldn't be used to refine medicine, such as the Fire Lizard's skin. However, the Fire Lizard's skin was an excellent material for making fire-type armor. Since the Fire Lizard could only be found in the Dragon's End Valley and the Dragon's End Valley was often a territory that was monopolized by the major powers, the price of the Fire Lizard's skin was very high.
Just as Zhang Zhiyin was about to pick up the valuable items and throw them into the Exchange, he suddenly thought of a better idea.
Why not just open a shop at the Exchange?
You could rent a shop in the Item Mall. The monthly rent was 50 yuan, including 50 item slots. If you wanted to expand, you would have to increase the rent. From then on, the Item Mall wouldn't charge the players anymore. It would only take a 1% commission after a successful transaction. For players who often needed to sell items, it was a good choice.
Zhang Zhiyin immediately did it. He painfully paid the 50 yuan rent and established a small shop called [Affordable Materials, Medicine]. He put all the materials he didn't need at a price and threw them in. He also threw in the low-grade medicine that he didn't need. Although no one would buy those medicine, the 50 slots were empty anyway. It was better to put the things he didn't need in there to save space.
Then he continued to look through prescriptions. The medicine that he could refine at his level was basically useless to him. Even if he refined it, it would only take up space. However, Zhang Zhiyin quickly found a useful prescription — [Young Pet Growth Pill]. The item description only had one sentence: Helps young pets grow healthily.
Zhang Zhiyin felt his heart itch when he thought of the domineering ice ball that his cat used. Unfortunately, no matter what, Yin Xiaoxiang could only spit out ice shards and couldn't use such powerful moves anymore.
His eyes emitted a strange light. He turned his head and stared at Yin Xiaoxiang. "I'll let you try it?"
Yin Xiaoxiang instinctively took a step back. "Ow … Wu?"
At the same time, in Base Y.
Meng Cari was floating around aimlessly. "…"
He thought of the cute cat he saw that day, but the doctor only allowed the cat to stay at the base for one day before sending Leidon back …
His resentment was so strong that Leidon, who was walking towards him, could feel it through his mental power.
Leidon patted his shoulder that was level with him after he floated up. "When the doctor wants to see his lover again, you should be able to see the cat again."
Meng Cari: "…" So annoying. Why didn't the doctor just pick up his lover and live there?
In the next second, both of them discovered that they were surrounded by a restriction. Their voices, auras, and even mental power could no longer be transmitted.
They could only give each other a helpless look. It seemed like the doctor was angry.
It was really annoying to have an omniscient and omnipotent boss.
Zhang Zhiyin suddenly realized a practical problem. In the game, it wouldn't take more than five minutes to run from one end of the map to the other, but this was clearly not the case in the real world.
The setting of the Dragon Valley spanned five hundred kilometers from east to west. It would take ten days to half a month to walk from one end to the other without stopping. Moreover, there was a wide range of monsters. The east side, which was where Zhang Zhiyin was at, had a relatively low level of monsters. They were only around level 30 in the game. The further west they went, the higher the monsters' levels. The highest was level 80, which was already the highest level of players in the game. Hidden in the depths of the west was a level 90 epic-level wild dungeon that countless players were waiting for but had yet to be opened.
The last time he returned to the real world, he specially checked the game map of "Tomorrow" and found that the west side of the Dragon Valley was connected to the level 60 to 100 monster area, "Death Valley." It was densely packed with high-level zombies. It was difficult for players to survive there with their current level. The map further west had not been opened yet, but according to rumors, the west side of Death Valley was Doctor Y's secret base.
To the east of the Dragon's Extinction Valley was a level 20 monster area called "Isolated Fishing Village". The people in the fishing village had already turned into zombies. Although they weren't that powerful, it was as its name indicated. This fishing village was truly isolated from the world. In this world without teleportation, even if Zhang Zhiyin went there, it would be useless.
Zhang Zhiyin was interested in a gap in the north of the Dragon Valley. It was connected to the ordinary wilderness, and after that, he would be able to find the human base.
Then he would have to abandon the safe zone and start moving towards the gap in the north.
Zhang Zhiyin rubbed Yin Xiaoxiang's head. "Xiaoxiang, are you afraid?"
The little cat was still asleep, and it let out a low "ow" without opening its eyes.
Zhang Zhiyin smiled and began to rejoice that he had taken in this little cat. Humans were naturally social animals, and it would be uncomfortable to be alone for a long time.
Thus, Zhang Zhiyin brought his little dumb cat and embarked on a life of killing monsters, gathering herbs, refining medicine, and selling materials.
Ten days later, when he was woken up by the alarm again and continued his work and life in the real world, his Ice Ability was already level 3, and his Accuracy Ability was level 2.
When his Ability reached level 3, he would randomly awaken the first ultimate skill of an Ability User. This time, Zhang Zhiyin was very lucky and awakened the "King Skill", "Freeze and Thaw," which was the skill that the little cat used on the day they fought the goat leader. However, his current level was still low, and he could only freeze and thaw a small part of the opponent's body.
What made him even more excited was that after playing Tomorrow for more than a year, this was the first time he had seen a profit.
His (Affordable Materials, Medicine) had already sold more than eighty items, and all the materials were almost sold out. At the very least, he had earned back the rent.
Then, he discovered a new piece of news on the forum.
The dungeons in Tomorrow were divided into three levels: Normal, Elite, and Epic. Recently, the game released a new mid-sized Elite dungeon. Not only would it drop exquisite sets of various Abilities, but it would also drop fashion items, favorability items, special pet fragments, and other items that were extremely popular among the players. Thus, it became very popular as soon as it was released, and many teams would run this dungeon every day.
The second boss in the dungeon was a Fire Ability User, but his Ability carried fire poison, which would cause dizziness, slow down, and a series of negative damage such as continuous HP reduction. This made this level extremely difficult to pass, and the team was often wiped out. However, later, someone discovered that a level 2 pill called "Flame Decay Pill" that had not been noticed before could remove fire poison. For a time, the Flame Decay Pill became very popular. However, one of its ingredients was the nails of an Ice Civet Cat in the Dragon Valley. The Dragon Valley had always been monopolized, causing the supply to be insufficient and the price to be too high. Ordinary players' resentment towards the monopolization of the map erupted once again, causing a war of words on the forum.
In this era, news seemed to represent business opportunities.
That night, as soon as Zhang Zhiyin returned home and logged into the game, she excitedly ran to Dr. Y and hugged him. She kissed him three times in a row before she calmed down and bought two boxes of chocolates for him.
He glanced at the item shop and smiled as he typed, "When my shop earns a thousand yuan, I'll buy a pair of crystal rings for you."
In the gift section of the item shop, the sparkling and translucent crystal rings were spinning and emitting a bright light.
This was designed for the male and female players who held virtual weddings in the game. However, in the game, even if they were "married", there were not many people who would actually buy the rings.
Zhang Zhiyin felt that he was really crazy.
He could no longer kick the habit.
As long as he saw his face, he would want to laugh from the bottom of his heart. When there was good news, he would immediately share it with him. He would give everything he had to him without reservation.
Even though he knew that the person in front of him was just a virtual 3D image, a bunch of data, he still could not help but treat him as a real person.
However, Yin Nian, did you know?
Zhang Zhiyin looked at the computer in front of him that had turned off and fallen into a black screen. He gently closed his eyes, revealing a gentle and sorrowful smile.
He was actually very afraid of seeing the real Dr. Y in the real Tomorrow World.
He was afraid that the Yin Nian he would see would not belong to him.
