The weird game of the ancient gods

The water problem was solved, but once the excitement wore off, my stomach growled again.

Xia Yu touched his flat belly and felt something was wrong. He ate one meal when he went out this morning, one meal at ten o'clock, and another meal at two o'clock in the afternoon. It was not even five o'clock yet. Why are you hungry again?

He remembered that when he loaded the skill card, he said that although it could not provide nutrition, it could provide energy.

Besides, the leader's water-making technique can quench thirst, so there's no reason why his meal-making technique can't quench hunger.

He carefully recalled the details of when he loaded the skill.

I vaguely remember that there seemed to be a reminder - since you have not yet mastered the 'magic', your meal-making technique cannot obtain magical effects, and additional mental power is consumed when using it.

What exactly does this ‘magic special effect’ mean? Could it be said that food conjured with magic power can satisfy hunger, while food without magic power can only be regarded as phantoms? It can't be such a trap.

No matter what the truth was, he had no other choice now. He could only conjure up another large piece of steak and gnaw on it. His stomach was full again quickly, but this time, he didn't feel as satisfied as before at all. It's just a sense of crisis.

No, I have to find a way to get food quickly, and I don’t know what other people are like or how they get food.

It would be better to go to other people's places to investigate the enemy's situation. If there is a chance, it would be good to get some food.

Whatever he wanted to do, Xia Yu emptied his backpack and used the meal-making technique to transform a few candy bars. He only carried a bottle of water and a serrated saber and walked towards the leader's sanctuary.

The leader mentioned the location of the shelter to him yesterday, and coupled with the fire spot observed last night, it was easy for Xia Yu to find it.

The leader's shelter was located in the lobby of a bank. The upper part of the bank building had collapsed, but the bottom floor was still intact. From a distance, he could see a lot of fishing lines stretched around it, and there were still hanging fish on it. It’s full of empty bottles and cans, and even has an alarm system. It’s such a creative idea, I’ll have to get one later.

In the open space outside the bank, there was a flagpole with a shabby white sheet tied to it. There was also a bottle painted in a very abstract style with two words [water station] written next to it. Xia Yu was speechless. This girl even started a business.

He crossed the cordon and pushed open the door of the bank. There was also a can bell hung on the door. It clanged as soon as he opened the door. When Xia Yu walked in, he heard a quarrel.

"Holy shit, you're robbing money!" It was Ergouzi's voice.

The leader's voice immediately sounded, "Would you like to exchange it? My price is definitely very fair."

Xia Yu walked in and saw that the dirty counter in the bank hall was covered with a torn carpet and a dozen bottles of magic spring water were placed on it. The leader was sitting behind with a smile, as if he had opened the door to do business.

There were also a lot of scraped debris piled behind the counter. Xia Yu noticed that there were two dead mice. Although not as big as the one he encountered before, they were still about the size of rabbits. The doctor next to him was Using a knife to skin a mouse, he wore glasses and was extremely focused, as if he was performing an operation.

Xia Yu licked his lips, feeling a little envious in his heart.

In front of the counter, Er Gouzi stood there angrily, carrying a dead mouse.

Bai Ye was carrying a rag bag containing some plant roots and other things, and frowned as he watched the two argue.

When several people heard the doorbell, they turned to look at Xia Yu.

"Hey, traveler, why don't you come and change the water? How about it? Have you figured it out?"

Seeing the leader's proud look, Xia Yu probably hadn't discovered the problem with the chocolate yet, so he suddenly felt reassured. He took out a few pieces of candy from his pocket and said pitifully, "This is the only one I have, can we Payment is made in installments, one piece of candy is exchanged for a bottle of water, once a day.”

The leader shook his head, "Sorry, the price here has increased. A bottle of water now costs three pieces of candy. For the sake of old friends, these five pieces of candy count as two bottles of water for you."

Xia Yu pretended to be angry and said, "You are just raising the price on the ground."

The leader smiled slightly and said, "There is no way. The relationship between supply and demand has changed. The market price is always determined based on the relationship between supply and demand. Now I am the only one who can produce clean fresh water. The price will of course be a little more expensive. If you don't accept it, you can still drink it." The water in the lake is free."

Ergouzi gritted his teeth angrily, "Ri, don't be too proud. The mechanic said he can make a water purifier. We might as well go to his place to change the water. Let's go in Baiye!"

Bai Ye shook his head, "I can't trust the guy who is the mechanic. Who knows if the water purifier he made works well? Besides, I'm in a hurry to use water now. If you don't want to change it, just get out of the way."

He opened the cloth bag and said, "Here are eight potatoes. Carbohydrates provide more calories than protein. Please give me a price."

Ergouzi didn't dare to leave after hearing this. He gritted his teeth and said, "How about a dead mouse and a knife in exchange for four bottles of water? I will take care of your business more in the future."

The leader smiled slightly and said, "Okay, for the sake of my friends, four bottles are just four bottles. In fact, your knife is worthless at all, and this mouse is still worth some money. If you ask me, you should join me. As long as You listen to me, the magic spring water pipe is enough."

The leader said, carrying four bottles of magic spring water and passing them over, and took the dead mouse and a fruit knife.

"Doctor, put it in storage."

"You traveler, have you made up your mind? Do you want to change?"

Xia Yu shook his head. He was not short of water, and there was no need to exchange it. He would rather exchange it for some meat, but he couldn't say this easily. If he exchanged a large amount of food, it would not be cost-effective. It's easy for people to spot flaws.

Looking at Xia Yu's leaving figure, the leader smiled proudly and said, "I don't believe you won't obey. The candy will be mine in the morning and evening."

He asked the doctor to discuss the deal with Bai Ye. He turned around and opened his backpack, ready to break off yesterday's chocolate into a small piece and enjoy it. Unexpectedly, when he rummaged through the bag, the chocolate was gone.

"Doctor!" He shouted, and the doctor who was dealing with Bai Ye hurried in. What happened to the leader?

"Did you touch my bag?"

The doctor shook his head, "No, why should I touch you?"

"Why is the chocolate I got from the traveler yesterday missing? It's just you and me here, not you?"

The doctor's expression remained unchanged, and he spread his hands and said, "I definitely didn't take it. We were together all day. Could you not have noticed it if I took it? Could it have been stolen by a mouse?"

"Can a mouse still zipper?"

The doctor thought for a while, "Is it possible that the traveler is like you and can turn into food? I remember that there is a skill called food creation in World of Warcraft. Could it be that he turned the chocolate, and then when the time comes? Disappeared."

The leader immediately retorted, "It's impossible. The traveler was not a mage in the last game, and the chance of getting the food-making spell is almost negligible. Besides, the food-making spell can only make bread and snacks, not chocolate. Besides, if he If you really can make food, you will definitely make a lot of it in exchange for me, how could you not even part with a few pieces of candy?"

The doctor spread his hands and said, "I didn't take it anyway." He didn't explain anything anymore, turned around and went back to discuss the deal with Bai Ye.

The leader was a little annoyed and glanced at the doctor. He also felt that the doctor didn't look like the kind of person who stole things, but there were only two of them here. Who else could have stolen it if he hadn't?

Huh, forget it, it's just a piece of chocolate. Anyway, there is a lot of rat meat now, that's enough.

Although he said this, he looked at the doctor with a bit of doubt.
