Chapter 300: Hand-crank Generator Picked Up On The Battlefield
As long as it’s not contaminated, sealed food can still be eaten even after decades.
It’s not as good as the fresh food from Road Supply Boxes or Service Areas, but it’s still decent. When players need to replenish energy, they eat smelly Mutated Spicy Strips and bamboo worms.
Some people are grilling Scorpions and Poisonous Spiders in the Rainforest to eat, saying night market stalls there used to sell them, and they were quite expensive. Add some chili powder and it’s crispy.
Then they end up foaming at the mouth, with crooked mouths and slanted eyes, hands twitching like making a 6 sign before collapsing. After recovering, their Poison Resistance and Health Value actually improved.
Yu Jiang’s own Poison Resistance is too high, so she can’t get this Achievement. Otherwise, to improve her strength, she’d close her eyes and take a couple bites too.
So she shared the method with her Teammates, asking if they wanted to eat Scorpion or Spider.
Everyone’s silence was deafening. Isn’t there a more dignified way?
This method is also a probability-based Achievement acquisition, only within three bites.
Everyone’s physical condition is different, so it doesn’t necessarily cause foaming at the mouth.
Strawberry Candy bravely went first and got the Achievement ‘Are Scorpions Tasty?’.
Cleaver Brother’s body is too strong; he just felt nauseous and dizzy, didn’t get the Achievement.
Han Jiang Gu Ying tolerated it well, saying he used to trek the Amazon filming outdoor survival, just remove the head and eat.
Shi Xu refused to try, saying he’d rather starve to death or be poisoned by Yu Jiang than eat this thing.
Purple Butt Can Do It was glad he drank the Mysterious Potion and didn’t need this Achievement.
The rest held the charred Scorpions with trembling hands, no different from facing execution. Only Sad Pig Intestine got the Achievement; he’s a Cook and got a bit more Buff than others.
Yu Jiang’s mind wandered, but her hands didn’t slow down. Suddenly, she remembered there seemed to be a Hand-Crank Generator in these supplies.
Yu Jiang rummaged through several bags and pulled out the Generator.
[Damaged small Generator, can sell at Scrap Yard, might work if repaired.]
There’s a Repairman Beat Lemon in the list; she immediately contacted him and sent the item. “How many Crystal Coins to repair this?”
Beat Lemon replied quickly, “Give me a pair of Protective Goggles. I just saw your message about having some; I’ll add more, and buy a Filter Mask and Protective Clothing.”
“But… this old-style hand-crank small Generator, even repaired, won’t generate much power. At most for an Induction Cooker or charging a Desk Lamp. Sure you want it repaired?”
He put it tactfully: this thing has little value On the Road; the repair cost could buy a Battery or an old solar Camping Lamp. Wood for fire could last a long time too.
Only a Big Shot would bother repairing it.
Though he really wanted the job, better to be clear.
Yu Jiang: “Repair it. I’ll reserve what you need.”
She knew Hand-Crank Generators have poor cost-effectiveness; cranking half a day for that little power. But if modifiable later, maybe let Zombies generate power?
Perpetual motion machine!
Another reason: this Hand-Crank Generator has Radio function. What if it picks up info?
Beat Lemon: “Got it! I’ll try to finish in 2 hours.”
Closing the Friend chat, Yu Jiang continued sorting supplies.
Slightly damaged but repairable Armor set aside, sent to Wholesale Wang Defa.
Irreparably broken Protective Clothing, Yu Jiang smashed with Crowbar to recycle. Not much Materials, but Even a mosquito is meat. All sorted could make several full sets of new Armor.
The remaining assorted Items took Yu Jiang over an hour to inventory completely.
Sealed canned Chocolate, two cans, total 40 pieces, all edible.
Yu Jiang ate one first; not bad, real Chocolate, not cocoa butter substitute.
Plus 40 canned peaches, 60 Beef Canned Food, vacuum-packed no-cook freeze-dried Rice with freeze-dried sides, looks nutritious, total 65 bags.
One box of Masks, emergency bags with 500ml Drinking Water; contaminated burst sealed bags discarded, 206 left.
Light Screen Scan: Shelf Life 3 years, expired but drinkable.
When players enter the Battlefield, Doomsday has been at least 3 years.
One 550ml unopened Mineral Water sells for 90 Crystal Coins on Trading Market today.
Unfiltered or unboiled water 35 Crystal Coins.
Yu Jiang lists her emergency bag water at 50 Crystal Coins, since expired.
She kept 30 bags stored in RV Time Stasis Grids, selling the rest.
Leaving in normal Grids would spoil them, not worth it. One Time Stasis Grid holds 15 bags, exactly two Grids.
Same for other supplies: set aside keepers first, then list, upload all at once later.
Yu Jiang packed away Sacks, Table and Chairs, Sky Curtain; removed Gloves and Mask, returned to RV, wiped sweat from face with Towel.
Supplies not yet listed, but many players messaging below.
Bitter Melon is Not as Bitter as Me: [Still friend-only purchase shares. How to add Big Shot as Friend! Even limited to one bag water per person, friends don’t worry about missing out.]
Greedy Red Moon One Slash 999: [I want to know too.]
Eight Pack Abs Easy to Push Down: [Stop, Big Shot look at me, I’m obedient and not clingy.]
Beetroot: [In our 006 zone, female Big Shots collect it, male Big Shots like it too. If you’re true to your name, just Survival, no need for level-up Resources, no problem.]
Ice Cream Assassin: [6, can you handle Combat Power Top 1’s one slash? I see they’re fixed partners.]
Eight Pack Abs Easy to Push Down: [I’m here to join this family, not break it. Powerful big sister, what’s wrong with a few caring people? In Doomsday, fighting all day isn’t Lonely?]
Qing Ya: [What’s so great about your conditions, I have them too! And I’m useful, I can kill monsters and do Instances.]
X: [Makes me sound useless.]
Taro Boba: [Holy! What is this! 『Excitement』]
Black-faced Zhang Fei Squawks: [??? Aren’t you Beetroot’s Teammate, Rank 35 on Combat Power Ranking, no shame left, robbing supplies from us?]
Qing Ya: [I don’t have radiation-proof Filter Mask either! Plus Recovery Pill, Plague Dispelling Pill, Advanced Healing Potion, Popeye’s Spinach… Friend slot please, sis.]
Yu Jiang raised an eyebrow; she didn’t believe a word.
No First Echelon player is harmless. This one’s with Beetroot, so from Combat Power List Second Joy’s Team.
In face of supplies, sweet talk worthless. High Combat Power players’ info worth something.
[Not friend shares, shares for my Friend Channel.] Yu Jiang replied.
In Friend Channel, low Combat Power fine; Manufacturing Players, Farming Players all contribute in Instances, everyone strives for Survival.
Don’t abandon: [1 minute countdown to listing, rush everyone!]
Recent speakers vanished instantly, all camping to snatch.
Where else 50 Crystal Coins for 500ml sealed pure water!
Yu Jiang checked Trading Platform prices, closed Light Screen to wash up.
She doesn’t lack Domestic Water, can’t change outer clothes daily.
Unless too dirty or smelly, outer clothes last three or four days.
At night in RV, clean and comfy is good enough.
Parked on Personal Road, Yu Jiang wears real silk long Nightgown from Manor; Parallel Road overnight Cotton Silk Short Sleeve + long pants; Night Watch full Outdoor Gear.
Zombie: Don’t you think you’re very humorous?
