Chapter 44: Post Station Store

"Congratulations on becoming the first place in the Samsara Factory. During this period, you have obtained a total of 2621 points, and you are now rewarded with 2621 units of currency."

Zhu Zhiquan and Zhao Yuxin, along with their Tricycle, were teleported back onto the Desert Highway. Zhao Yuxin looked at the extra supplies in the carriage, feeling very satisfied.

"The biggest harvest from this event is these seeds, and then there's this currency. Oh, by the way, Ajiu, how much Soul Sacrifice have you done?"

Zhu Zhiquan took three loaves of bread from the carriage, sighed, and said, "It's no good. I couldn't perform any Soul Sacrifice in that factory."

"Understood." Zhao Yuxin nodded gently. "Ajiu, do you know? Back on Blue Star, my favorite game was Teamfight Tactics, and my favorite team composition to use was..."

Zhu Zhiquan just pedaled the Tricycle silently, eating bread as they traveled along the long Desert Highway.

When Zhu Zhiquan finished eating the three loaves of bread, he discovered a house built by the side of the road ahead. Out of curiosity, Zhu Zhiquan stopped in front of the house and saw the words "Post Station Store" written on it.

Zhao Yuxin poked her head out, intending to ask Zhu Zhiquan, when she suddenly saw the four characters for "Post Station Store." She immediately jumped off the vehicle and urged, "Ajiu, get off quickly! Let's go inside and buy things."

Zhu Zhiquan slowly got off the vehicle and followed behind her. As soon as they entered, the two felt a bit disappointed. They saw that the interior of the store only had a front desk and a robot; there was nothing else.

Zhao Yuxin went to the front desk and took out a stack of currency. Detecting that someone was trading, a screen appeared on the robot's chest with only two options: shopping and vehicle repair.

The cost of repair was calculated based on the degree of damage. Zhao Yuxin first chose the vehicle repair option. Afterward, the two heard some movement outside, and when they turned their heads to look, they saw two spherical objects scanning their Tricycle.

Then the screen displayed that it required 800 units. Zhao Yuxin cursed on the spot, "800!? Why don't you just go rob someone! We only have about five thousand in total, and you're telling me it costs 800!"

"Alright, Azhao, it has to be repaired regardless. How much do we have exactly now?"

"We have a total of 4991 units. Ajiu, why don't we look at the other options first? After all, we have the Vehicle Repair Box System v1. I think we should check if there are any materials to upgrade the vehicle; maybe we can save this money."

"That makes sense, but I don't hold much hope."

"Why?"

"We've opened so many supplies these days and haven't seen any materials for upgrading the Tricycle. I'm afraid there aren't any here either."

"Whatever, let's take a look first." Zhao Yuxin chose the shopping option, but the two searched inside and did not see any materials for upgrading the Tricycle.

Helpless, Zhao Yuxin could only hand over the 800 units to repair the Tricycle. After the robot took the money, movement started up outside again.

The two turned their heads to look and discovered that the ones responsible for the repairs were the two spherical robots that had done the inspection earlier. They flew rapidly around the Tricycle, and the originally damaged parts of the Tricycle were gradually repaired.

The two withdrew their gaze and focused their attention on the merchandise. Zhao Yuxin first picked out a few pieces of clothing and shoes, as well as some warm clothes and quilts, spending a total of 648 units.

Zhu Zhiquan's gaze was more on the blueprints and equipment. Soon, Zhu Zhiquan's gaze rested on two books.

Zhu Zhiquan bought the two books without hesitation, deciding to try learning them in a while.

"Ajiu, look at this." Zhao Yuxin clicked on a product icon, and the information was immediately displayed before their eyes.

"Don't be in a rush, look at this one too." Zhao Yuxin clicked on another product.

Name: v1 Baby Ball

Zhu Zhiquan turned his head and asked, "What, you want to have one now?"

Zhao Yuxin acted coy, "Oh, it's better to be prepared, right~ If I get pregnant one day, won't it come in handy~"

Zhu Zhiquan gave her a flick on the forehead on the spot, "Forget it, are you sure this game will let you give birth to a child smoothly? Let's wait until later."

"Oh~" Zhao Yuxin could only look at the item with a reluctant expression until it was out of sight.

Afterward, the two picked out some food, materials, seeds, a Rope Blueprint, a Screw Blueprint, some training equipment, a Fan Blueprint, and some recreational items.

Zhu Zhiquan and Zhao Yuxin took their bags out of the store. By this time, their Tricycle had also been repaired. The two put the things they bought onto the vehicle and left the store.

"After buying the Rope Blueprint, our raw materials for the grappling hook are partially resolved." Zhao Yuxin looked at the rope in the crafting interface, feeling very satisfied.

"By the way, Ajiu, you said this place doesn't even have a single sex toy. I still wanted to experience the feeling of being disciplined." Zhao Yuxin complained from behind.

Zhu Zhiquan was speechless after hearing this, "Um, can you learn the contents of those two books first? Remember, both books can only be learned once."

"Got it, I'll leave one chance for you." Zhao Yuxin first opened the "Hell Walker Manual" to try learning it. About five minutes later, the system prompt sounded in her ears.

"Ding, learning failed."

Zhao Yuxin didn't care and immediately opened the next book. When she opened "Plant Modification and Cultivation," various flowers, plants, and Vines appeared around the Tricycle and inside the carriage. Zhu Zhiquan saw this strange phenomenon through the rearview mirror.

Zhu Zhiquan immediately stopped the vehicle and came to the carriage, seeing Zhao Yuxin surrounded by various plants. Soon, Zhao Yuxin opened her eyes, and the system prompt sounded in her mind again.

"You have successfully read 'Plant Modification and Cultivation' and obtained the Primary Botanist talent."

Primary Botanist: You can easily identify the characteristics of plants, as well as basic plant cultivation methods. When encountering new plants, you will have a strong desire to research them. Additionally, Magic Power cap +5.

Zhao Yuxin sent the effects of the Primary Botanist talent to Zhu Zhiquan. The latter just nodded gently and returned to the driver's seat of the Tricycle to continue driving.

Seeing Zhu Zhiquan's cold attitude, Zhao Yuxin was a bit dissatisfied. "Hey! Zhu Zhiquan, shouldn't you be happy that your wife gained a new talent?"

Sensing that Zhao Yuxin was angry, Zhu Zhiquan hurriedly coaxed her, "Happy, of course I'm happy, it's just that we have to reach the designated location before dusk."

Zhao Yuxin let out a huff, then immediately opened her interface to look at the content on the World Channel.
