Chapter 2: Survival Crisis, Real Death

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Looking at the treasure chests in front of him, Lin Yue was filled with excitement.

He could now confirm that after transmigrating to this other world, he had obtained a cheat.

He had a 100% chance of obtaining treasure chests from killing monsters!

After killing the three slightly-large lizards, three treasure chests appeared at the same time. This was definitely not something that could be explained with just luck.

Lin Yue opened the four treasure chests he had obtained.

[You have obtained 600ml Mineral Water!]

[You have obtained 500 grams of bread!]

[You have obtained 600ml Mineral Water!]

[You have obtained 500 grams of bread!]

What he obtained was food and water which were supposed to be the most scarce.

He opened the group chat and silently watched for a while. He still saw that many people were complaining about the low chance of getting treasure chests.

It seemed like he was the only one with such a cheat.

Lin Yue also realized that because most people did not have water and food, they braced themselves and attacked the mutated creatures, hoping to obtain treasure chests.

Drinking water and food were necessary for survival.

Lin Yue had read the statistics. A human could survive for two months or even longer without food.

But if they did not drink water, they would die in three days.

It could be said that water was the most basic prerequisite for survival.

The manual said that after the first disaster, the elderly and children would be transported with three days worth of food and water.

But the first disaster was seven days later. Without water, how many people could survive until seven days later? Moreover, they had to pass the disaster first.

Who knew how many days would the disaster last.

Lin Yue had grown up in an orphanage and had no family or friends. Even at that time, he would not receive those supplies.

With this path blocked, Lin Yue could only rely on himself.

However, including the mineral water from the first treasure chest, he already had three bottles of water, each of which was 600 milliliters.

In theory, you would need to drink two liters of water every day to maintain the best state of your body.

But in this humanity survival game world, this would be a dream.

Lin Yue looked at the water that could last a day and heaved a sigh of relief.

At least he did not have to worry about water for the time being.

As for food, it could last him for two days.

Moreover, with the cheat that gave 100% treasure chest drop rate, he should be able to get as many of these things as he wanted.

While carrying these things back to the straw hut, Lin Yue tripped over the door. This made him realize that while the problem of water and food was resolved, there were still other issues left.

After unscrewing the cap of a bottle of water, Lin Yue drank a large mouthful and focused. He opened the game interface again.

After opening it, he suddenly saw that the number of people in the upper right corner of the group had decreased to 9,996.

After another minute or so, it became 9,991!

‘Wait, what is going on? The number of people decreased?

Decreased, it meant…’

“Dead!?”

A chill instantly enveloped Lin Yue.

This game was undoubtedly real. Then, the decrease in the number meant that some people had really died!

Lin Yue searched the list carefully and saw that nine people’s avatars had turned gray.

Among them was the one who said that the hut had collapsed.

Death…

Does dying here mean a real death?

Lin Yue felt a sense of danger again.

Water and food could ensure that he did not die of thirst and hunger, but in terms of safety, what difference did his shelter have from that collapsed hut?

With a trace of worry, he looked at the [Shelter] option. Soon, an image jumped out.

Shelter: Straw Hut

Area: 40 m2

Durability: 2/10

Evaluation: It will be blown away if the big bad wolf breathes at it. Find a pig that knows how to make wooden huts.

Shelter Points: 0

‘Holy smoke, looking at the durability, it seems like it can collapse at any time.’

‘The game can even ridicule.’

However, it was true.

Not to mention whether this straw hut could withstand the random disaster, it would not be able to block even a large mutated creature.

In particular, the survival manual said that the mutated creatures would become even more active and violent at night. If they were unlucky, they could just wait to die.

Lin Yue walked out of the hut again and looked into the distance.

In the distant grass, some black spots were moving.

They were definitely not an easy target like those mutated insects.

He felt that he had to resolve this matter before night arrived.

Lin Yue looked at [Manufacture].

Two sub-options popped up. One was [Shelter], and the other was [Survival].

Shelter was divided into doors, walls, floors, and roofs.

Lin Yue looked at the collapsed straw door.

This seemed to be the first thing he had to take care of.

[Straw Door: Grass x3]

[Wood Door: Wood x2]

[Stone Door: Stone x4]

Soon, three plans were shown on the screen.

Lin Yue ignored the straw door without thinking.

That thing was the same as having nothing.

It would be good enough if it could block bugs.

As for the stone door, Lin Yue felt that this straw hut might not be able to withstand the weight of the stone door.

Then there was only one choice.

However, he had to gather wood first.

He looked around.

Wasteland, shrubs.

Trees? There seemed to be a wood a few hundred meters away.

After walking over, Lin Yue realized that the thinnest tree was at least ten centimeters thick and the branches were too high.

This was an issue. He had no tools.

Opening the [Manufacture] page, there was indeed a solution in the survival sub-option.

[Stone Ax: Wood x1, Stone x1]

What?

If I had wood, would I need to make an ax?

After searching for a while, he found no branches or stones nearby.

Other than this place, there was nowhere else that had any connection to the word ‘tree’.

After another careful search, he did not find even a single stone.

Good lord, how barren is my area?

On the way back to the straw hut, Lin Yue was surprised to discover that he had not encountered any mutated creatures for such a long time.

Not to mention the little lizards, he did not even see a purple grasshopper.

Were they hiding?

Lin Yue thought for a moment and entered the straw hut. He opened the game interface and looked at the [Trading Center].

The screen flashed. There were not many messages.

[Seller: Island City Boss]

[Item: Slider]

[Requirement: 1 liter of any liquid]

[Seller’s Note: Best of luck, bros! Drain it!]

[Seller: Berg]

[Item: Mutated Creature’s Meat]

[Seller: Zhang Lei]

[Item: Wood x2]

[Requirement: Drinking Water 500 ML]

[Seller’s Note: I hacked at a tree for a long time to get this. Need Water!]

After browsing through it, Lin Yue realized that not only did they have the ability to trade items, but they could also auction their items.

Although there were many random posts, Lin Yue realized that most people were asking for the same thing.

Water!

Water seemed to have become a hard currency.

Indeed, if they wanted to survive, they had to have water.

Without the concept of money, bartering became the only mainstream trading method.

Moreover, it was not only a simple transaction, they could also auction.

He searched if anyone was selling water, but found no results.

It seemed like not many treasure chests dropped.

Looking at the water beside him, Lin Yue fell into thoughts.

Opening the inventory, Lin Yue noticed that there were ten slots in total. Moreover, items of the same category could be added to one slot.

He took out a bottle and drank it. Then, he placed the remaining two bottles of water in the inventory. Soon, one of the slots in the inventory showed ‘Water x2’.

Three bottles of water, a total of 1.8 liters. It was not much.

It was time to choose how to exchange it.

Lin Yue looked at the trade posts requesting for water. Although there were many of them, the price they were offering was too ridiculous.

It was better to set the price himself!

Auction!
