11 golden crates yielded gold ingot ×33, and 7 diamond crate decompositions yielded carbon fiber ×21.
1 purple-gold crate decomposition yielded purple gold ×3.
Red crystal crate decomposition yielded silicon crystal ×10 and refined iron ×2.
Blue crystal crate decomposition yielded silicon crystal ×10 and blue mudstone ×2.
Green crystal crate decomposition yielded silicon crystal ×10 and green mudstone ×2.
Jiang Li thought it over and listed multivitamins on the regional trading channel: 1 tablet for 2 empty crates, quantity 400, limited to 2 bids per ID.
Li Taibai: “Vitamins ×1 for any empty crate ×2 has been listed. You know what this means. If you want them, hurry up!”
You have to know that vitamins were an ultra-rare commodity in this Survival Game.
Not only could they maintain bodily functions and prevent disease, they could also improve resistance and relieve fatigue.
Without fruit, vitamins were the best substitute.
Jiang Li kept one bottle for herself.
After listing the rest of her belongings, she left it alone. By then, the red wine beef had finished braising.
Jiang Li lifted the pot lid, and the aroma of wine mixed with beef instantly flooded the air. It smelled far too good.
Jiang Li took out small bowls and chopsticks, then eagerly picked up a piece of beef and put it in her mouth.
The meat was tender and almost melted on the tongue. It needed no extra seasoning; a fresh sweetness spread between her teeth.
Jiang Li could not help taking bite after bite.
…
Village Informant: “Ahhh, I got 2 tablets. Thanks, big shot. I have mouth ulcers.”
Little Fugui: “Haha, I got 2 too. I have the most empty crates.”
Fairy Sister: “I got 1 too.”
Auntie Chen Qianqian: “Why can’t I see it? Where is it?”
User 7778965865: “I can’t see it either. @Li Taibai, did you not list it?”
Iron-Blooded Vanguard: “I got it too. Taibai listed it.”
Yun Ge: “Right, everyone should have it. If you don’t, you may have been blocked.”
Auntie Chen Qianqian: “@Li Taibai, what gives you the right to block me? I was only speaking the truth in the group. Are you really that petty? Everyone was getting along just fine in the group, and you’re the only one making things difficult.”
User 7778965865: “@Li Taibai, exactly, what gives you the right to block me?”
Little Dove: “@Li Taibai, give us an explanation. Do you know how much this makes you look like an outsider? You’ve ruined the atmosphere of the whole group. Getting everyone together in this group wasn’t easy. It was supposed to be for helping each other and speaking freely.”
Auntie Chen Qianqian: “I’ve always given my all in the group, sharing all kinds of news and offering advice to everyone. Even if I occasionally speak bluntly, it’s still for everyone’s good. But you block people at the slightest disagreement.”
The “lurker” Poetic Remarks in the Human World rarely spoke, but this time even they couldn’t resist chiming in: “Yeah, we’re all group members. Whatever conflict there is, can’t we just talk it out? Blocking someone outright isn’t very good.”
Yun Ge watched the one-sided accusations in the group and quickly typed a line.
Yun Ge: “Could there be some misunderstanding? @Li Taibai, I believe you definitely didn’t do it on purpose.”
Yun Ge: “Auntie Qianqian, please calm down too. Taibai is usually quite helpful in the group, and she definitely wouldn’t block you for no reason. We’re all in the same group. Wouldn’t it be better to keep things friendly? It’s not worth hurting the harmony over something like this.”
Yun Ge: “Taibai, if you see this message, why not come out and explain? Let’s clear up the misunderstanding and still be good group members.”
User 7778965865: “@Li Taibai, blocking people like this… are you hiding something? Our group can’t have this kind of intolerance. Everyone should be open and honest.”
…
The gossiping bystanders in the group began piling on, @-ing Li Taibai and demanding that she come out and give an explanation.
Seeing everyone on her side, Chen Qianqian grew even more aggrieved and kept accusing her.
“If you can’t afford it, then don’t trade. This kind of behavior is disgusting. Believe it or not, I’ll have someone track you down.”
Yun Ge leaned back in her chair, a trace of gloom flashing across her face.
This Li Taibai always managed to stall her by one step at every upgrade, and all the first-release supplies were snatched by her.
This time, she had already sped up, but she was still one minute late on the upgrade time.
“Hmph, now this will be fun. Go ahead and show off. The bigger the drama, the better.”
Jiang Li watched Yun Ge keep driving the rhythm. She had seen far too many such backstabbing schemers in her previous life. She just hadn’t expected Yun Ge to be one of them.
Well, before interests were involved, everyone was a good person. She had seen through that long ago. Why would she still have any hope?
Jiang Li was still wary of Yun Ge’s luck. She glanced at Auntie Chen Qianqian again. If this person wanted to track her down, keeping her around would eventually become a disaster.
Jiang Li looked at her combat power in this life. Hmm, whoever came at her, she’d deal with them.
Especially the Domain intimidation aura… it was incredible.
No wonder she had been the previous leaderboard champion. All of that was top-tier stuff, and Jiang Li felt she needed to think about how to wrest it away.
She took out a location card and used it directly.
Soon, a parallel road appeared.
Jiang Li stepped on the accelerator and drove forward. After turning, a bus appeared ahead. Sure enough, it was Auntie Chen Qianqian.
Jiang Li immediately sped up and forced the bus to stop. The other side apparently hadn’t expected her to be so bold.
A fierce-looking man carrying a morningstar stepped out and walked toward Jiang Li.
Jiang Li pressed her lips together. So the notorious Auntie Chen Qianqian from the group chat was actually a man.
So shameless, stirring things up in the group. Good thing she came over.
Jiang Li yanked open the vehicle door, grabbed her long saber, and prepared to get out.
Just then, an off-road vehicle appeared, and a cool, striking woman stepped out.
“Chen Qianqian? You don’t deserve that name, you lowlife trickster pulling cheap tricks!”
Auntie Chen Qianqian gave a wicked smile, pressed his lips together, and said nothing. His mental fortitude was astonishing.
“Ugh…” The woman let out an exaggerated dry heave, then frowned and took out sunglasses and put them on, as if even one more glance would contaminate her.
“Ugly man, are you planning to apply for world intangible cultural heritage status with that smile? I suggest you go scare off monsters directly… you might even win without fighting.”
The woman kept talking, but her steps inched toward Chen Qianqian without anyone noticing, while her peripheral vision stayed alert for any movement.
Jiang Li sat quietly in the vehicle and watched the situation unfold. Auntie Chen Qianqian still kept his mouth shut.
But when the woman got close, he suddenly swung the morningstar and slammed it down hard. This man was ruthless.
The woman was even faster. She bent at the waist and kicked Chen Qianqian right in the groin.
“Ouch, damn…”
“Now you can speak like a human, can you!” The woman raised her leg again, clamped both hands around Chen Qianqian’s head, and drove her knee upward.
Auntie Chen Qianqian clutched his stomach, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes.
A dagger appeared out of nowhere and stabbed the woman’s abdomen directly. Blood gushed out.
“I coated this dagger with poison. You’re as good as dead, you bitch.”
Jiang Li drew in a sharp breath and was about to get out to help.
The woman crushed some kind of card, and her entire body, along with her vehicle, disappeared from the road.
