Doomsday Game: I Will Become Stronger Just By Staying At Home!
Chapter 25 Emergency! Brand New Feature-My Faith!
The more Su Yi thought about it, the more frightened he became. He quickly closed the ranking data in silence, quickly logged into the trading platform, and started searching for orders related to weapons and bullets.
After filtering the search conditions, Su Yi was surprised to find that the price of relevant orders today had soared several times!
The day before yesterday, he was able to buy 100 rounds of ammunition with only a few bottles of ice water and some medicines. Today, the seller's reply was indeed: the price is not enough!
The lowest price the seller wants is 10 bottles of ice water, plus 20 kilograms of shelf-stable food or 20 boxes of commonly used medicines.
This much material can be exchanged for 100 rounds of the most common pistol bullets.
As for other bullets, they are not for sale!
We don’t sell grenades either!
Only pistol bullets, pistols, and body armor are for sale!
Su Yi consulted several sellers and found that the prices were quite different.
It seemed that in just one day, this group of people had discussed it and raised the price one after another!
"Strange, why has the price become so expensive?"
Su Yi frowned. He opened the city area chat channel, searched for keywords such as weapons and bullets, and checked the chat history information. He really discovered some clues.
"...It's so annoying. Today's bullets are so expensive that I can't even afford them. I finally saved up some resources to buy a gun for self-defense, but it turns out it's not enough!"
"It is said that there have been too many gun battles in the city in the past two days, mostly due to competition for supplies, and some people even deliberately massacred weak shelters... Sellers who control firearms decided to control shipments, not wanting humans to kill each other. "
"Nonsense, I don't believe this reason. They clearly want to support their troops and respect themselves!"
"It's not that bad. There are still good people. My female neighbor next door was rescued by the rescue team yesterday. Unfortunately, their supplies were limited and they couldn't save too many people."
"People's hearts are unpredictable in the apocalypse... Hey, I feel more and more that there is no difference between the post-apocalypse and the pre-apocalypse."
"Brother, what do you mean by this?"
"Think about it, before the apocalypse, I worked hard for decades to buy a house, but the house prices were rising every year, and I was always a little short of getting a car; after the apocalypse, I worked hard to save resources to buy a gun for self-defense, but the result was that every time I was just a little short. Only then can I buy it.”
"Can you tell me with your conscience that the situation before and after the apocalypse is the same? Has my situation changed in any way? I'm still at the bottom of the fucking society!"
"Fuck! Then this doomsday has come in vain!"
...
The survivors in the urban area complained about this problem yesterday, but Su Yi was resting after the war at the time and did not notice it immediately.
Originally, in the past few days during the apocalypse, survivors across the city had become accustomed to using online trading platforms to exchange what they had, and to exchange urgently needed supplies with each other to improve the overall hope of survival.
There are even some good people with a Holy Mother heart who are distributing supplies for free or selling supplies at low prices to help others.
But not long after, the atmosphere of the entire trading market changed!
The Holy Mothers are gone, and low-priced supplies are gone... Whether it's drinking water, food, or even weapons and equipment, the prices have increased several times!
The more hard currency supplies are necessary for survival, the more expensive they are.
Non-essential supplies such as toilet paper, toothbrushes, and cigarettes are very cheap, but no one cares about them.
We are all at a critical moment of life and death. We all have one meal but no one. Who cares about the quality of life?
Su Yi also had a headache when facing this problem. The cost of the transaction he originally used was ice water, but now it seems that ice water is no longer a necessity in the eyes of the survivors in the city.
After all, there is too little ice water. Currently, only Su Yi can produce it stably, but only 10 bottles a day.
Even if all 10 bottles are sold, placed in the demand market of the entire city, they are just a drop of water under the scorching sun and have no effect at all.
Everyone has long regarded ice water as a special scarce commodity and a luxury item, and the demand for it has dropped rapidly.
"Is it possible that I should exchange the expired food for bullets?"
Su Yi thought about it and tried to communicate with the sellers, but found that they were quite picky!
Many foods that are not easy to store are not expensive at all, only half the price of shelf-stable foods.
"It's only been a few days, but everyone has become smarter!"
"You're all trying to take advantage, right? OK, I won't buy it!"
Su Yi gave up.
He didn't want to suffer a loss, and Su Yi already had a rifle with unlimited bullets, so his need for weapons and equipment was not too urgent, so there was no need to be taken advantage of.
"But I have to buy something, right?"
Su Yi looked at the list on the table, where Jiang Xiaoci listed some of the foods that were about to expire and spoil last night.
If these things are not disposed of in time and allowed to rot, it will be a huge waste.
eat?
Totally unable to finish it!
There are only four people in the shelter, but the amount of supplies stored is enough for dozens of people to survive for a week.
Even if Su Yi lets everyone eat freely, they still can't finish the food.
After all, the three people except Su Yi are all women. How much appetite can a woman have? The best one is Lin Yue.
"If that doesn't work, just buy some cigarettes or something. They're cheap. I haven't smoked in several days."
Su Yi thought about it, and he felt that it was a bit wasteful to do so.
While others are still worried about hunger, I am already considering whether to stock up on a few cartons of cigarettes to satisfy my spiritual needs.
Just when Su Yi was thinking about what to buy, suddenly there was a burst of noisy people downstairs.
It sounds like there are many people gathered downstairs!
"what happened?"
Su Yi was startled. He rushed to the window, opened the gap in the curtains and looked down.
He saw a group of women standing downstairs. They were the women he kicked out yesterday, and they were also one of the original residents of this building.
"Going and coming back?"
Su Yi frowned, and his eyes noticed that Lin Yue was standing among the women.
She faced the crowd with a gun and seemed to be comforting the women. Then she turned towards the residential building and opened the door in the special way taught by Li Ya.
After a while, the sound of Lin Yue coming upstairs came from the corridor outside the door.
At the same time, new prompt information also appeared in front of Su Yi.
[Attention! The talent unit "Lin Yue" you dispatched abroad will trigger a special event and return to the shelter early! 】
"Trigger a special event and return early?"
Su Yi raised his eyebrows and murmured: "This is another new mechanism? If we return early, will the amount of materials explored be affected?"
Su Yi doesn't know. He currently doesn't know much about the mechanism of dispatch exploration.
Judging from Lin Yue's behavior in bringing back these women, the dispatch mission seems to be similar to the survivors looking for supplies. The dispatchers will search for supplies within a certain range, and the surviving humans do not need to do it themselves.
After a while, Lin Yue opened the door and appeared in front of Su Yi.
"Chief!"
Lin Yue's voice was clear and he saluted Su Yi.
"It's not dark yet, why did you come back early?"
Su Yi looked at Lin Yue calmly: "Something happened?"
"Yes, Chief."
Lin Yue took a deep breath, suppressed the nervousness in her heart, and reported in a tentative tone: "On the way to the mission, I discovered that a group of thugs were committing brutal acts against a group of innocent women not far from the shelter."
"As a soldier, I have the responsibility to protect the people, so..."
"So you fought off the thugs and brought those women back."
Su Yi opened the curtains again, glanced down, and said lightly: "You should know that I drove them out."
"I know, Chief."
Lin Yue lowered her head, her tone hesitant, and she tried hard to explain the matter: "I didn't want to violate the chief's order, but...it's just that they are really pitiful."
"I know that when performing tasks, there cannot be unnecessary softness and kindness."
"But Miss Jiang mentioned to me last night that if you meet the right person during the mission, you can bring him back to the shelter. She said that our shelter also needs more fresh blood."
"She didn't specify who she wanted...so, I think they are pitiful, chief...I'm sorry."
Lin Yue lowered her head. The more she spoke, the less confident she became, and she became dejected: "...I will let them go now."
"It's not necessary."
Su Yi waved his hand and sighed slightly.
It seems that Jiang Xiaoci is smart. He has been considering the plan to develop a shelter since last night, and he is sure that he can successfully convince himself today.
At the same time, Jiang Xiaoci also saw Lin Yue's character. Although Lin Yue was in the shelter talent unit, in Su Yi's eyes, he was no different from a living person.
He has repeatedly believed that this group of talents is essentially the same as humans, and Lin Yue's talent background is a Chinese soldier.
From this point of view, Lin Yue has the consciousness and actions to step forward to help the weak.
Dare to sacrifice and protect the people.
These eight words are the best portrayal of Chinese soldiers.
She did this, and Su Yi couldn't say anything. Everyone has their own characteristics.
If it weren't for Jiang Xiaoci's words at noon, Su Yi would have asked Lin Yue to drive away these women again.
But now, it's different.
"Go find Jiang Xiaoci."
Su Yi turned around, closed the curtains, and said softly: "She will handle these women well."
"Chief, will we... kill them?"
Lin Yue was a little nervous and held the rifle tightly in her hand. Su Yi noticed her little movements and couldn't help but laugh.
"Lin Yue, if I asked you to kill them, would you do it?"
"Chief, I...I don't know."
Lin Yue suddenly panicked. She widened her beautiful eyes and stared at Su Yi almost in disbelief. She could not believe that the person she was loyal to would be a cruel tyrant.
"Can you shoot?"
"Military orders...Military orders are like mountains!"
Lin Yue stiffened and murmured: "I will die to apologize."
She could not accept that she might shoot at innocent people, which violated her principles as a soldier.
"You look conflicted."
Su Yi smiled: "I won't give this order. Go find Jiang Xiaoci. She will take in these women and she knows how to arrange them."
"Chief, I...ah! You agreed!"
Lin Yue was suddenly pleasantly surprised, looking at Su Yi with twinkling beautiful eyes, with a very surprised expression.
"Do I look like a murderer?"
Su Yi was confused, Lin Yue opened his mouth and shook his head fiercely: "No, you are not, you are the greatest leader in my mind!"
Being able to lend a helping hand to innocent people even in the most difficult circumstances.
Such behavior is the most convincing to Chinese soldiers.
"Okay, I'm not great, I have my own plans."
Su Yi waved his hand, he was not as good as Lin Yue said.
There are too many supplies in the shelter now. Instead of wasting them, it would be better to support more people to work.
It is better to raise a group of men than to raise a group of women, as the threat and variability will be slightly lower.
"Go and find Jiang Xiaoci."
"Yes, Chief!"
Lin Yue turned around and left excitedly. She wanted to tell the poor women downstairs the good news.
"Does this count as taking advantage of me?"
Su Yi looked downstairs through the curtains and murmured: "However, I can at least provide safety protection. We can only take what we need."
"To put it this way, I'm actually not too bad. The end of the world hasn't completely changed me yet."
Before Su Yi's self-talk could finish, a new prompt message suddenly popped up in front of his eyes.
[Congratulations! A special event for successfully completing the dispatch mission!]
[Your talent unit "Lin Yue" has been greatly inspired and obtained the new talent characteristic "My Faith"! 】
【My Belief】: Talent characteristics. She received enough encouragement, the people she was loyal to strengthened her beliefs and pursuits, and she had the opportunity to break through and become a higher-level talent.
