From the moment she entered this survival game, this upgrade was the most difficult one she had ever saved up for.
But it was foreseeable that it would only get harder from here on out.
Cheng Shuili did not want to waste today's blueprint improvement opportunity, yet she was conflicted about which one to upgrade.
She opened her personal panel and stared at it for a while.
【Player: Cheng Shuili
ID: AAAJCCJ8888
Username: Angry Crow Takes Flight
Vehicle: Shopping Cart (Appearance: Off-Road Vehicle) (Current Battery: 1000%) (Solar panels working)
Health: 85 (Buffed by title, a very healthy value; suggest increasing physical activity!)

Stamina: 46 (It is increasing slowly. Human, as long as you are willing to work hard, you are the strongest!)
Agility: 50 (Also an unchanged value; have you reached a bottleneck, human?)
Total Combat Power: 66 (Added one point as encouragement, no need to thank me!)】
Cheng Shuili: “...”
Who wanted to thank you?
Recently, the Golden Rice Bowl provided an extra 4 points of stamina, but other than that, no other attributes had changed.
However, did the system really not know why there were no changes? Aside from that one dungeon during the novice protection period, Cheng Shuili had never seen any free attribute points to allocate.
As for stat potions, how was that any different from looking for a needle in a haystack?
Cheng Shuili continued to look down with a huff.

Cheng Shuili stared at the blueprint column, pondering for a moment, and ultimately decided to improve the most basic 【Basic Water Condensation Device Blueprint】.
Although she wasn't short on water, she was raising a water bucket, after all.
Cheng Shuili silently glanced at Su Rui, who was drinking water in the driver's cab. This girl's body was truly miraculous; she didn't know where the water she drank went, and she never needed to use the bathroom.
Cheng Shuili understood this setting; it was to prevent servants from slacking off in the bathroom.
Since Su Rui discovered that Cheng Shuili had no objections to her drinking mineral water, she had already downed eight bottles today.
Although Cheng Shuili didn't mind the loss of water, she was genuinely worried about water poisoning.
But fortunately, it seemed servants didn't get sick either.
In any case, Cheng Shuili needed a new water condensation device.
Not for anything else, but specifically for Su Rui!
Cheng Shuili selected the 【Basic Water Condensation Device Blueprint】, but her luck today seemed poor. After wasting one energy stone, Cheng Shuili watched with displeasure as the words “Improvement Failed” appeared.
Fine.
She would try again tomorrow!
She still had five energy stones left, meaning five more chances!
It was impossible to fail every single time, right?
The first day of the famine passed amidst calm, accompanied by the endless confusion of the regional channel.
Perhaps due to the experience during the extreme heat, by the second day of the famine, people began to notice something was wrong.
“It's too strange. I feel like something is missing from the supply crates again.”
“Exactly. Before, when I opened wooden supply crates, I’d get either compressed biscuits or mineral water. Since yesterday, I haven't seen either! It’s all basic materials!”
“Actually, your luck is still okay. When I open wooden supply crates now, all I get is multivitamins! System! Answer me! Why don't I even have basic materials? And, can this stuff keep you full? Huh?! Can it keep you full?”
“Forget it, upstairs. I’ve opened over a dozen bottles of digestive tablets and haven't said a word yet.”
“Hahaha, there’s actually such a master out there!”
Cheng Shuili couldn't help but laugh. The system was truly vicious.
Looking at what these people were saying, she became curious about what she had opened yesterday.
Usually, when she got something good, Su Rui would let her know, but Su Rui had been exceptionally quiet all day yesterday. Thinking of this, Cheng Shuili immediately got up and knocked on the driver's cab door.
Cheng Shuili was a polite child, so she started with a greeting: “Are you driving?”
Su Rui: “...”
What else would I be doing?
Cheng Shuili wasn't embarrassed at all. She smiled and asked, “What did you open yesterday?”
Su Rui stepped on the brakes, and after the vehicle came to a steady stop, she went directly to the cargo area and carried over a cardboard box.
After seeing clearly what she was holding, Cheng Shuili couldn't smile at all. What Su Rui was cradling in her arms was a box of fresh cow dung.
As soon as it was opened, Cheng Shuili sensed that something was wrong. The smell was sour and pungent, hitting her right in the nostrils!
Su Rui opened it for Cheng Shuili to see and then immediately closed the lid.
Cow dung?
Cheng Shuili: “???”
What was she supposed to do with this?
Seeming to notice Cheng Shuili's confusion, Su Rui explained, “It might be useful for growing vegetables, so I brought it onto the vehicle.”
Cheng Shuili was even more silent. She glanced at the miniature sunroom to the side; the entire sunroom wasn't even as big as this box of cow dung.
Was it really useful?
“Besides, it doesn't smell once you seal it. Our cargo space is large, so we can definitely keep it.”
Su Rui added as an explanation.
That actually made some sense. Having it was certainly better than not having it, but sleeping in the same room as dung...
Cheng Shuili was a bit repulsed, but she decided to keep it anyway.
“Anything else?”
It couldn't be that she only opened a box of fresh cow dung all day, right?
Su Rui nodded and handed the box to Cheng Shuili. Cheng Shuili took it subconsciously, and the next second, a pop-up window suddenly appeared in front of her.
【A player who wishes to remain anonymous has used a Designated Material Theft Card on you!】
【They hope to obtain the supplies in your possession. Will you grant them?】
Cheng Shuili: “???”
This was absolutely the most inexplicable day since Cheng Shuili entered the game!
First, Su Rui picked up a box of fresh cow dung yesterday, and then, someone used a card on her hoping to get this box of dung!
What on earth was all this?
Cheng Shuili's gaze fell on the Designated Material Theft Card. This card was so polite.
It was called a theft card, yet it still asked if she would grant it?
Was this reasonable?
Wait! Was this reasonable?
Brother Invincible looked at the pop-up window in front of him, his face turning red with anger. This was a theft card! Why was he asking for the opinion of the person being stolen from?!
