Chapter 3: Silver Treasure Chest

After Cheng Shuili felt happy, she immediately checked the loot.

Each person can equip two titles at once; Cheng Shuili didn't hesitate and directly clicked to equip, and with these ten points added, her three attributes became 30, which is 10 points higher than an ordinary person's.

Now even if she suddenly encounters a "road merger," Cheng Shuili has the strength to fight.

After feeling the power in her body, Cheng Shuili couldn't help moving a bit, and following her vague memory of the movements, she performed a set of odd-looking tai chi.

This is something she learned in college; frankly, with the attribute points bonus, it actually looks quite proper.

Next up was that silver treasure chest!

Unlike the crude wooden box, this silver treasure chest is carved with intricate patterns and its clasp is inlaid with a red gemstone.

It's also quite exquisite.

【Silver Treasure Chest (small chance to obtain rare items, extremely high chance to obtain legendary items)】

Cheng Shuili paused, seeing this probability she knew something was wrong—another bug!

It's a lucky bug!

Cheng Shuili rubbed her hands and without hesitation opened the chest.

"Congratulations on obtaining Vehicle Upgrade Core x1【Legendary】, Pre-made Meals x10【Rare】, Self-heating Rice x4【Rare】, Self-heating Hot Pot x4【Rare】."

This…?

Three rares and one legendary came out?

Cheng Shuili incredulously glanced again at the description page; indeed it said "small chance to obtain rare items, extremely high chance to obtain legendary items."

Wow.

Cheng Shuili didn't know what expression to make; this was a rare outburst of European Emperor luck.

Damn, don't get lucky in such a weird place!

Cheng Shuili angrily stomped her feet twice, then noticed that the option to announce had not yet been selected.

Her mood improved a bit, so she directly selected to announce.

【Congratulations to player Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji for obtaining the server-wide first kill achievement; please all players act quickly to acquire supplies and strive to survive!】

"Holy crap! First kill?! You encountered a monster and killed it? The server's only been open three hours!"

"Boss, are you cheating?"

"Wu Ya Dalao is awesome! Asking for monster strategy!"

"Hehe, just good luck. I simply haven't encountered a monster; otherwise this title would definitely be mine."

Cheng Shuili ignored those envious, jealous, hateful people; she chose to announce merely to satisfy her vanity—who doesn't have a little thought like that?

Doing this probably won't cause any problems; even if it really does…

The one who's hot is Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji; what does it have to do with her, Cheng Shuili?

Cheng Shuili moved all the food onto the vehicle, restarted the shopping cart; in her previous life she had also read such road-apocalypse novels, where the protagonists were pathfinders and the system would reward them.

Cheng Shuili wasn't interested in being a pathfinder, but she needed the system's rewards.

Anyway, the shopping cart has electricity; just go forward.

Only then did Cheng Shuili leisurely examine that upgrade core.

【Upgrade Core: Use together with ten Vehicle Upgrade Material Fragments; after use, the vehicle's final stage is fixed as Legendary.】

Cheng Shuili silently nodded; not bad, this is an auxiliary material— to upgrade a vehicle you need "Vehicle Upgrade Material Fragments," and if the opportunity arises perhaps she could trade a bit.

Cheng Shuili drove the electric shopping cart forward; the scenery on both sides of the road remained desolate, the dark red sky seeming never to change.

She hummed a little tune, her mood especially relaxed.

Suddenly, a familiar black square object appeared again at the edge of the road ahead.

"Another wooden supply box?" Cheng Shuili raised her eyebrows, walked a bit further, and as expected saw a brown box.

She braked the shopping cart; the advertisement sound cut off abruptly, leaving only the rustling of wind blowing through dry withered grass.

Cheng Shuili jumped out of the cart, walked to the box, and the system prompt immediately popped up:

【Wooden supply box detected; open?】

Last time it was a monster; this time it surely can't be a monster again, right?

"Open!" Cheng Shuili without hesitation selected confirm.

The box creaked open, inside lay quietly a 500ml bottle of mineral water and a packet of peanut-flavored compressed biscuits.

Compared to the silver treasure chest it's far inferior, but better than nothing—who would complain about having more supplies?

Cheng Shuili reached out to take the supplies, but the box didn't disappear as before; instead it remained intact standing there.

Cheng Shuili froze for a moment, then tentatively clicked the box again.

【Wooden supply box detected; open?】

"Can it be opened repeatedly? Another bug!" Her eyes lit up, and she immediately selected "yes."

The box opened again; this time inside was a can of yellow peaches and a small utility knife.

Cheng Shuili quickly took out the supplies; the box still didn't disappear.

Cheng Shuili finally had to admit, this bug physique talent truly lives up to SSS rank!

Cheng Shuili didn't hesitate and immediately began her "farming supplies" undertaking.

She clicked the box open as fast as possible repeatedly, each time obtaining different supplies:

Third time: a bundle of 10-meter-long rope and a thick coat obviously for winter.

Fourth time: a box of 15 matches and a piece of nut chocolate.

Fifth time: a folding engineer's shovel and a bottle of multivitamin tablets.

When Cheng Shuili raised her hand again, the wooden box finally disappeared. She wasn't greedy; being able to farm five times already made her happy.

Cheng Shuili, satisfied, hugged the supplies back to the shopping cart, packed everything in, then stepped on the accelerator and continued driving!

She opened the panel and looked at her current data.

Cheng Shuili narrowed her eyes and nodded; she also felt it was already quite good—this is only the morning, who else among the others has so much supplies?

Cheng Shuili opened the regional chat channel with a look that mixed three parts pride, three parts smugness, two parts arrogance, and two parts disdain.

It was already noon, exactly lunchtime.

Many people were showing off their food.

Cheng Shuili held a chocolate in her mouth, squinting at the chat messages flaunting lunches. Most people's lunches were miserably meager—half a compressed biscuit, a slice of whole‑wheat bread, a bottle of water; some even got only a few vitamin tablets.

Even one unlucky soul had only opened a bottle of digestive tablets, trying to fill his stomach with them for lunch.

"Tsk, just this?" Cheng Shuili scoffed, casually snapped a photo of the boiling self‑heating hot pot and posted it to the channel.

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】：【Picture】 Lunch, just casually getting by.

The regional channel exploded instantly.

"Holy shit! A self‑heating hot pot?! Is this something a newbie can actually get?"

"Boss, do you need an accessory on your leg? I eat little but can still fight!"

"Fake? Definitely photoshopped! I opened three boxes and got only bottled water."

"Upstairs, are you starving stupid? Where would you get photoshop software from."

Cheng Shuili grinned, then took a photo of the yellow peach canned fruit, captioning it "Dessert after the meal."
