Road Survival, I Have a Hint System!

Looking at the dense pack of death information on the regional channel, Zhang Tuohai couldn't help but feel chills running down his back.

Behind every death message is the passing of someone.

Before the first day had passed, nearly half of the people in the regional channel had already died.

How many people will be left after the seventh day of the disaster?

Zhang Tuohai could not imagine it.

At the same time, he felt extremely lucky to have obtained the hint system.

Otherwise, he would have fallen into a trap and died.

The sun sank below the horizon and the sky grew dark.

The night in the other world was a bit strange. There was no moon and very few stars. The road was so dark that you couldn't see anything beyond ten meters away.

Zhang Tuohai wanted to turn on the car lights but found that his broken car didn't even have any.

Zhang Tuohai no longer knew what to say.

He didn't dare to discredit his vision and hit the road.

Moreover, the game prompt at the beginning also warned them that driving at night was dangerous.

Since it was so dangerous during the day, you can imagine how terrifying it would be to have the game system specifically remind you of the danger of the night.

Zhang Tuohai decided to sleep in the car for the night and search for supplies tomorrow.

Opening a bucket of instant noodles, Zhang Tuohai could only eat them dry because he didn't have any boiling water.

Crushing the dough into pieces, sprinkle with half a bag of seasoning, and shake them well.

"Just think about your childhood."

While Zhang Tuohai was eating noodles, he turned on the regional channel to see what everyone was talking about.

"I'm so thirsty. I've been looking for a supply box all day long. It's all filled with rubber, metal parts, and the like. There's not even a drop of water. I'm willing to trade all my resources to anyone who has water."

"Wake up, look at what kind of terrain is around you. Desert! Idiots all know that the most scarce thing in the desert is water. No one will sell water. Let's wait and see if we can find water tomorrow."

"Tell someone upstairs a hot fact. If there is no water, you can drink urine. If you produce and sell it yourself, it can last for two days."
T/N:(Drinking your urine can dehydrate you faster than not drinking anything.)

"Do you think I don't want to? You need a container to drink urine. How can I drink without a bottle?"

"Bottle? I have it, but I can't give it to you for free. You have to exchange it for resources."

After seeing the information in the forum, Zhang Tuohai's heart moved.

Many people who were still active in the regional channel were more or less carrying some supplies.

What they lacked most was water resources.

he could take advantage of this opportunity to exchange all the resources in their hands with his water.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tuohai took the one-liter bottle of mineral water in his hand and asked his mind: "Can the entire bottle of water be sold separately?"

"Yes." The game system answered simply.

There's no problem with selling it if you can split the bottle of water.

Zhang Tuohai put the liter of mineral water on the exchange channel.

[Sells mineral water, 200 ml of mineral water in exchange for 6 resources, limited resources: metal part, low-grade rubber, metal fragments, metal ingots, glass. 50 units in total, first come first served. 】

[Note: If you have special resources or blueprints, you can chat privately. 】

After putting it up, Zhang Tuohai returned to the regional channel and shouted: "You can buy water in the trading channel, 50 units in total. Brothers who have resources, hurry up."

Zhang Tuohai's voice made a sensation on the regional channel.

"What? Someone is really selling water?"

"Why do you need to use resources to buy it? Can you use money? I will pay 10,000 cash and a Rolex."

"Why are we limited on resources? Can I use plastic fragments and weeds in exchange? After all, they are also obtained from the supply box."
T/N:(Don't seem to be referencing the drug.)

"Brother, do you have anything to eat? I haven't eaten for a day. I have 20 units of wood. Just give me a piece of bread."

There was a lot of noise on the regional channel.

However, although the noise on the regional channel was fierce, these people were not slow at all, and soon one liter of water was sold out.

Zhang Tuohai sorted out his harvest.

He obtained a total of 36 units of metal fragments, 28 units of low-grade rubber, 28 units of metal parts, 6 units of glass, and 2 units of metal ingots.

Coupled with the remaining resources he had accumulated, it was enough for him to make lightweight tires.

Even the resources to upgrade the second-level water collector had been mostly collected. Only 6 metal ingots and key manufacturing blueprints are needed to upgrade the water collector to level 2.

Seeing that the water was sold out, people in the channel started shouting.

"Brother, is there any water left? Please sell some more. I was too slow and didn't grab any."

"That's right, let's sell a little more. Can I contribute three points of resources?"

"I have 6 units of wood, all for you, plus a piece of original lace. Just give me a glass of water, please."

Zhang Tuohai blocked all these messages and only left one sentence: "It's sold out today. If you want to buy, please come early tomorrow." After that, he stopped replying.

Some of those who didn't buy water were still begging on the channel, while others were cursing.

Looking at these mixed messages, Zhang Tuohai shook his head and prepared to quit to make lightweight tires.

At this time, a private message happened to be delivered.

The sender was an old acquaintance, Su Mu.

"Is there any water and food? I don't have any resources, but I have a blueprint."

[Hand crossbow manufacturing blueprint: Level 1 weapon, range 50 meters, requires 2 units of metal ingots, 10 units of metal fragments, 8 units of metal parts, and 8 units of low-level rubber.]

[Note: After making a hand crossbow, it will be provided with 10 crossbow arrows. If you need new crossbow arrows, please find the crossbow manufacturing blueprint to make them.]

Seeing the blueprint, Zhang Tuohai's heart moved.

This world is not as safe as the original world. A self-defense weapon is very necessary!

More importantly, he has all the resources needed to make the crossbow, and he can make it as soon as he gets the blueprint.

He looked at the water collector.

There is enough water in it.

"I'll give you 500 ml of water, plus 1 tea egg." Zhang Tuohai replied.

"That's too little. At least 1 liter of water, 6 tea eggs, and 6 breads are needed." Su Mu replied dissatisfiedly.

Seeing Su Mu's reply, Zhang Tuohai smiled: "This is impossible. No one can take out so many supplies this early, and only I can afford it. According to my guess, you have asked many people to sell this blueprint, and they mustn't have offered as much as I did. At most 400 ml of water, 1 tea egg, no more."

Seeing Zhang Tuohai's reply, Su Mu's fingers froze.

Indeed, as Zhang Tuohai said, her blueprint had been hanging in the trading channel for a long time, and many people had asked for the price, but none could take out food in exchange.

"But this amount of food is not enough to fill me up. I need at least two more loaves of bread. One blueprint should be exchanged for a full meal." Su Mu tried to protest.

"I don't have any bread now. If you are willing to wait, I will find bread tomorrow and exchange it with you."

Zhang Tuohai looked at the only remaining bucket of instant noodles and a sausage beside him and said.

Although the crossbow is good, food is obviously more important.

Seeing Zhang Tuohai's reply, Su Mu looked at her sister who had turned pale because of weakness, and made a decision with gritted teeth.

"I can give you the blueprint first, but you have to give me the water and the tea eggs now, and give me three loaves of bread tomorrow." Su Mu bit her lip and sent the message.

After seeing the message, Zhang Tuohai was slightly stunned.

Judging from the information, he guessed that Su Mu had reached the end of her rope, otherwise, she would not have proposed such a condition.

"Okay, but I'm not sure of my ability to find enough bread tomorrow. Other food is also OK, right?" Zhang Tuohai asked.

"Of course, I hope you can keep your word." Su Mu hung the crossbow blueprint on the transaction interface.

Zhang Tuohai hung water and tea eggs.

The transaction was completed.

Zhang Tuohai obtained the crossbow blueprint.
