Apocalypse Lord

"If you don't fight monsters, how can you get copper coins?" The little girl stammered.

"The sweet potatoes were dug out." Yunling pointed to the ground that had been smashed. "The ingredients are everywhere in the wild. You can eat them by steaming, boiling, and roasting them after you gather them."

"There is a lot of food collected. In addition to eating it by yourself, you can also go to the territory and sell it to other players."

Upon hearing this, the little girl was surprised and delighted, "I can do this job!"

"Eat first, gather with me later, and return to camp together at night." Yunling said as he handed out the baked sweet potatoes.

There were tears in the little girl's eyes. She nodded vigorously and said seriously, "I will work hard!"

Sweet potatoes are sweet and delicious, and they feel full.

After Xiaoying had eaten more than half of it, her belly finally stopped groaning and she felt much more comfortable.

After the meal, Yunling dragged her home and explored far away.

"This is a potato, you can eat it when you roast it."

"This is a berry. It is made into jam and spread on bread. It tastes good."

"This is wild vegetables. You can eat them after you dig them and cook them."

"This is a mushroom, you can eat it if you roast it."

…

While spreading common sense, Yunling collects ingredients with Guard B.

Xiaoying tried to do it herself.

【Successfully collect, get berries*1. 】

[The collection failed and no items were obtained. 】

【Successfully collect wild vegetables*1. 】

[The collection failed and no items were obtained. 】

The prompt appears alternately and repeatedly. After several times, the content finally changed, [Congratulations to the player for successfully collecting 10 times. 】

[You have gained 1 point of experience. 】

[You have unlocked the life skill ‘Elementary Collection’. 】

[Congratulations, you officially become a player, your body will be digitized. 】

She has skills!

She has become a player!

Xiaoying almost cried happily.

At noon, the backpack was almost full, and Yunling led the team back to camp.

"Just find a place to set up a stall, and there will be players looking for you to buy ingredients." Yunling asked, "In addition, some materials can go directly to the task hall to hand in tasks."

There are already 50 collection missions in the mission hall, each of which can be completed 50 times. Even life players who don't have the ability to fight can still support themselves by collecting and earning copper coins.

"Thank you, thank you so much." Xiaoying was so grateful that she couldn't help but thank.

After speaking, she stuffed Yunling the collected potatoes, berries, wild vegetables, and mushrooms, leaving only a few berries for herself, and then ran away.

"Hey--" Yunling didn't pay attention, and people ran away.

Seeing the scattered piles, she laughed blankly, "What do you mean? Pay for the meal?"

Shaking his head, Yunling picked up the materials one by one, and then walked towards the warehouse.

**

Yunling was checking inventory, and a message suddenly popped out, [npc "William" is here to visit, may I ask if you hire it? 】

Click to view.

【Name: William】

Grade 1

Attributes: Strength 6, Dexterity 6, Physical Strength 5, Intelligence 5, Spirit 5.

Combat skills: c-level backstab

Life skills: primary collection

Employment price: 150 copper coins.

Primary collection!

Yun Ling's eyes lit up, and he immediately decided to hire him and gave him the name "Assassin A".

"In the future, if there are too many NPCs and the numbers are not enough, I will pick up Guard B and Assassin A and rename them to Gathering A and Gathering B." She secretly thought.

**

In the afternoon, Yunling led the team to explore in another direction.

Not far away, I saw a large area of ​​straw and wheat straw being harvested. More than 20 players were holding the materials as if they were holding a baby.

Straw sandals are about to become a nationwide. Are you exercising? Yunling felt funny. Shaking her head, she took the npc to continue walking.

After a five-minute walk, I found a jujube forest. She immediately beckoned and motioned to Guard B and Assassin A to step forward.

Red dates are pitted and mashed into mud. It tastes sweet and soft, and the mouth is fresh. This thing can be eaten directly, and can be used as a snack material. It has a variety of uses and does not lose money.

Seeing a bamboo forest next to him, Yunling ordered the Guard Armor, Archer Armor, and Mage Armor to stay on standby, and he went into the bamboo forest to take a look.

The bamboo is full of treasures.

Bamboo leaves can be used as medicine, bamboo poles can be prepared, and bamboo shoots can be eaten.

There is a building to be unlocked called "Bamboo Workshop", which uses bamboo to make simple weapons and provide household items.

Because the function is similar to the woodworking workshop, it is not unlocked.

Unconsciously, Yunling walked to the depths of the bamboo forest and found the bamboo shoots in the corner.

She just wanted to dig bamboo shoots when the messy running sound rang.

Looking up, I saw a player sprinting out of the bamboo forest lifelessly, while shouting loudly, "Run! There is a snake!"

This is the disadvantage of life players.

When you go out to collect resources, you will often encounter danger. If you are far away from the territory, no one can rescue you, and you don't respond in time, you may be dead.

After sweeping his eyes, he saw five green snakes spitting out and chasing them quickly. Instead of running away, Yun Ling took out his shield and dagger, and took the initiative to greet him.

Yang Yonggang wants to ask, why don't you run? Seeing that the green snake was killed one after another, the group was wiped out after a while.

Yang Yong looked at the charming young girl, and then at the mobs on the ground who were no longer moving. He was speechless for a while.

Yunling picked up the copper coin, snake skin, and fangs before turning around and asking, "Is it all right?"

"It's okay." Yang Yong shook his head.

"That's good."

We meet by the water, and help is just by the way. To make sure that the other party was okay, Yunling wanted to continue digging bamboo shoots.

Yang Yong saw it and took the initiative, "Shall I dig for you?"

He took out the bamboo shovel and dug quickly.

Yun Ling was startled slightly, "Where did the shovel come from?"

Yang Yong dug and replied, "I made it myself. I am a stickman, and I often do manual work before the game starts."

Yunling asked again, "Can bamboo beds be made? Can bamboo chairs be made?"

"Yes." Yang Yong didn't look up.

"I place an order, can you do it for me?" Yunling suggested.

Yang Yong raised his head, his expression was very stunned.

"Don't want to do it?" Yunling misunderstood Yang Yong's meaning.

"That's not the case." Yang Yong deliberated his words, "handwork is delicate, it takes time. In addition, the price..."

He hesitated to speak, but he didn't know how to say it.

The offer is low, sorry for the time he took.

The price is high, I'm sorry for saving my life.

"What kind of furniture can you make? What's the price?" Yunling didn't care.

"50 copper coins for the bamboo bed, 20 copper coins for the bamboo chair, 5 copper coins for the bamboo shovel..." Considering the life-saving grace, Yang Yong gritted his teeth and quoted the friendly price.

"I want to make a bamboo bed, two bamboo chairs, a bamboo shovel, and a bamboo cabinet." Yun Ling said without hesitation.

Yang Yong was stunned and reminded subconsciously, "The price is not cheap after one set is finished."

"It's okay, I have money, just talk about it or not." Yun Ling said.

"Do!" Yang Yong made a firm decision.

After agreeing on the details, Yunling added friends and paid a deposit on the spot.

After the upgrade, strength and physical strength have increased. Yang Yong had the final say, it took a day and a half and it was almost finished. Strictly speaking, I am not at a loss.

Thinking about it as a cooperative relationship, he tentatively said, "I need to chop some bamboo. Can I go back together later?"

"Yes." Yun Ling responded readily.

Hearing this, Yang Yongru was relieved.

**

In the evening, Yunling and his entourage returned to the territory.

After stepping into Lingyun Village, Yang Yong left with the materials.

Yunling first went back to the warehouse to unload the supplies.

The system prompts, [npc "Nicole" is here to visit, may I ask if you hire it? 】

Life professionals, unfortunately, are not the kind she needs.

Yunling regretfully clicked "No".

View the territory properties panel.

【Territory Name: Lingyun】

【Tax: 5%. (0-100%, the lord has the right to adjust independently)]

The business of woodworking workshops and tailor shops is booming, several houses are sold intermittently, tax revenues within the territory are soaring, temporary residents pay overnight fees on time, players save money to purchase formal resident status... Unknowingly, 10,000 copper coins have been collected.

Looking at the panel, Yunling pondered for a long time, and finally chose to upgrade the "Task Hall".

Copper coin -10000.

[The mission hall is upgraded to level 2. 】

[There are 3 NPCs visiting here every day, staying for 24 hours. 】

【You will have more chances to get a higher level and better quality npc. 】

"Wood craftsmen, sewing talents, culinary talents, gathering talents, fighting talents, anything will do, just come and visit!" Yunling looked forward to it and waited for NPCs to come to the door.

Mission hall.

【You have linen*5, do you submit a task? 】

Xiaoying clicks "Yes".

In the next second, hemp cloth -5, copper coin +5.

Xiaoying covered her mouth and forcibly suppressed the urge to scream, her heart beating wildly. She did it! She earned 5 copper coins on her own! There is an overnight fee tonight!

【You have sweet potatoes*2, do you submit a task? 】

[You have rice*1, do you submit a task? 】

[You have flour*1, do you submit a task? 】

【You have cornmeal*1, do you submit a task? 】

After thinking about it, Xiaoying left sweet potatoes for dinner today and breakfast tomorrow. As for rice, flour, and cornmeal, they are all sold.

In this way, she has 8 copper coins. Even after paying the overnight fee, there are still 3 copper coins left.

The deposit is not too much, but it is a great encouragement to Xiaoying.

This was the first time she stayed in a safe area on her own.

This means that even if she doesn't have a companion, even if she doesn't force herself to fight monsters, she can still live.

For a while, Xiaoying was excited and overwhelmed with joy.

After a while, she reluctantly calmed down, "I have to write down all the 50 collection materials in the mission hall, and collect them first."

"The collected materials are used in exchange for money, and the collected food is kept for your own consumption, and the excess can be stored."

"Wait until you save enough money, buy tools, increase collection efficiency, and earn more!"

Xiaoying used her brain and worked hard to think about countermeasures. His eyes were shining, bright and agile, as if they had finally seen hope.
