Chapter 66: The Game Coins That Vanished Without a Trace
Cheng Shuili hasn't stopped yet.
"Most importantly, install a liftable weapon rack behind the driver's seat for me!"
I have few weapons now, but I'll have more later; a weapon rack will definitely be useful, and opportunities like this to make a wish aren't common.
If the system knew what she was thinking, it would surely scold her harshly—you know you're making a wish here, right?
Cheng Shuili didn't stop, she added: "The seat needs memory foam, but the surface must be water- and scratch-resistant tactical fabric. Add a retractable awning on the roof, the kind with rainwater drainage channels."
As soon as Cheng Shuili finished speaking, the system reacted immediately.
【Ding! Request received, starting to generate exclusive survival-style renovation plan...】
A progress bar appeared before Cheng Shuili's eyes, starting at 1% and moving forward.
She really didn't expect such a request to actually be possible!
To be honest, what's the difference between this and encountering a yellow-skinned spirit seeking blessings, saying "I see you as a hundred-billion tycoon with a great temper, the whole world loves only me, and you're extraordinarily generous to me, a 189 handsome guy"?
The progress bar stumbled to 25%, then suddenly stopped without warning.
【Detected insufficient materials, cannot implement current renovation style! Please choose another renovation style!】
Cheng Shuili: "?"
She had just been happy for a moment.
Why doesn't this broken system just say it can't do it?
【Detected dissatisfaction with this system's service, have switched to another colleague to serve you.】
【Dear survivor, to realize this renovation, you need to pay additional Game Coins!】
Fifty thousand?
That's too much.
Cheng Shuili originally just wondered if she could exploit a bug; since it definitely wouldn't work, she didn't plan to dwell on it.
She was about to follow the system's instruction to switch styles, but after the pop-up closed, she saw the progress bar still moving forward.
Just now it was at 25%, now it's at 62%.
Whether it's stuck or something else.
If the progress bar can move forward, just let it go.
Cheng Shuili feared the system would detect an anomaly, so she directly activated a stubborn, troublesome state.
"Too expensive, make it cheaper."
【Can't make it cheaper, dear; this amount of Game Coins is all I get, I don't earn any commission, it all goes to your material costs, so I'm essentially renovating for you for free!】
"What do you mean renovating for me for free? I didn't use a card?"
"Are you treating the card like Aladdin's lamp to make a wish?"
System: "Such a demanding client."
Though it cursed inwardly, the system kept a smiling face, speaking gently to reason with Cheng Shuili.
【The card is just a card; it only says this renovation is free of charge. You can go to Shou Ren Xiao Zhen to inquire—renovating once with this system still costs a lot, so don't miss this opportunity.】
Cheng Shuili didn't speak, she watched the progress bar reach 99%, unconsciously held her breath, then it jumped to 100%.
A burst of white light enveloped the vehicle, and the system she was connected to experienced an inexplicable lag.
After the white light faded, Cheng Shuili blinked in disbelief at the brand-new shopping cart before her.
The formerly crude metal-panel cargo compartment had completely changed its appearance; walls and flooring were installed, and the uniquely styled upscale bathroom finally fit in.
As she requested, the left side features a foldable fireproof countertop, with a portable stove embedded underneath. The right side holds a very comfortable large bed, its mattress thoughtfully lined with her original four-piece set.
"This... really happened?"
Cheng Shuili reached out to touch the countertop; its cool feel told her it wasn't an illusion.
She looked up at the roof; solar panels were neatly arranged, and the electrical system had clearly been upgraded.
Even more delightful, a liftable weapon rack indeed appeared behind the driver's seat—though currently empty, it will surely be useful in the future.
【Dear, are you still listening?】
Cheng Shuili's excited feelings were interrupted by that line; she shook her head, then nodded, saying, "I'm not renovating anymore, you can go."
【Dear, are you sure? The renovation card won't be refunded.】
Cheng Shuili had no time to waste talking nonsense; she just wanted to flop onto the bed to truly feel a real big bed!
Finally, no more sleeping on the sofa!
【Okay dear, see you next time.】
The system, while closing the service channel, muttered: "What a strange customer."
The system isn't the main system, just a little system working a job.
The little system has extremely efficient processing procedures, so it works several jobs at once.
As night fell, the little system that had worked hard all day returned to its little nest, intending to as usual open its balance to check today's income, but couldn't help throwing its head back and letting out a anguished cry.
It... its balance!
Why is it missing fifty thousand!
On the other side, Cheng Shuili naturally didn't know where those fifty thousand Game Coins came from, just thought she was lucky and had caught another bug.
She lay on the soft mattress, exhaled deeply, her mouth corners unconsciously rose, and she quickly snapped a few photos and posted them to the group.
【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: (image) (image) Seems riding the coattails of a lucky one really works.
【Xinxue Chuji】:??? What is this? A hotel? Where did you find this hotel??? Wait, this wouldn't be the big shot's vehicle, would it?
【Wan Yi】: Vehicle? Vehicle!
【Liang Shan Bo Zhu Ying Lai】: Wow! This is too cool! Boss, what level vehicle are you? Can upgrading get it like this?
Cheng Shuili noticed that Liang Shan Bo also started calling her boss. She smiled and spoke out the information of the vehicle card.
【Xinxue Chuji】: I'm done for, turns out it's the first-place reward.
【Liang Shan Bo Yu Zhu Ying Lai】: Speaking of which, this still feels a bit surreal—Lao Da is actually the server-wide first place, the person most @-ed in the regional channel. Someone like this, I never dared to even imagine before, and now I actually get to call him Lao Da.
【Wan Yi】: If you like, you can also call me Lao Da.
【Xinxue Chuji】: Hahaha, taking advantage, right? Wan Yi, older sister, you're Lao Er, I'm Lao San, Zhu Zhu Xiao Mei, you don't mind, do you?
【Liang Shan Bo Yu Zhu Ying Lai】: What is Zhu Zhu Xiao Mei?
【Xinxue Chuji】: It's you, baby.
Cheng Shuili laughed again.
Since this group chat started, her smile has become much more frequent.
Before, Cheng Shuili was like someone walking in a desert with no food or water, not knowing when she might collapse, only able to take it step by step.
Now it's as if she and her group of good friends are out having fun together, lively all the way, whether they're going on an outing or a picnic.
The psychological change is significant.
Today's mileage hasn't changed much, and it hasn't changed all week.
Cheng Shuili estimates the next change will come after the extreme cold ends, though she's not sure what the next disaster will be.
She narrowed her eyes and looked out through the windshield; a stationary car lay across the road, obviously upgraded, resembling her shopping cart in appearance—a bit of a mismatched mess.
