【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: I was a programmer in my past life.
【New Snow Clearing】: You mean the bald kind?
That is a stereotype.
【Wan Yi】: It is hard to imagine.
【Liang Shanbo vs. Pig】: Angry Crow definitely won't go bald!
Cheng Shuili was still a bit curious, so she directly tagged Wan Yi to ask how she guessed it.
【Wan Yi】: Just felt like a girl after interacting.
Cheng Shuili fell silent. She had thought Wan Yi possessed some special item to reveal information, but it turned out to be just a vague feeling.
【New Snow Clearing】: Boss, I opened a blueprint from the reward highway. I don't have a workstation, so I'll give it to you. Just help me craft one for free!
"You have received a gift from player 【New Snow Clearing】: Simple Hunting Trap blueprint x1."
This blueprint is interesting.
She stopped paying attention to the group chat, clutched the blueprint, sat in front of the workstation, added the new design, and checked the required materials.
There were three items in total: iron block x5, iron nail x10, and a rope over 10 meters long x1.
The first two were very common, but Cheng Shuili did not actually have the last one.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Who has extra rope, the kind over ten meters?
"You have received a gift from player 【Liang Shanbo vs. Pig】: 10m safety rope x1."
"You have received a gift from player 【New Snow Clearing】: 13m safety rope x1."
"You have received a gift from player 【Wan Yi】: 10m rope x1."
Cheng Shuili felt a little flattered. Looking at this response to her call, she clearly felt like a little emperor.
Wait, didn't Wan Yi say she didn't have any rope?
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: @Wan Yi, do you still have enough rope for yourself?
【Wan Yi】: It is enough. I just happened to cut off 10 meters.
She cut it on the spot?
Fresh, truly fresh!
Cheng Shuili sat back in front of the workstation, took out the materials, and began to synthesize the Simple Hunting Trap.
Like the Basic Water Condensation Device, it also took three minutes.
【Simple Hunting Trap】
【Description: A very ordinary snare trap. I am not entirely sure why it requires iron blocks and iron nails. It can be placed outside the vehicle. Small animals that are not looking where they are going will get caught if they pass by. Remember to get up early every day to see if there is a harvest! If there is no harvest for too long, the prey might escape or be dragged away by other animals.】
Good stuff.
Cheng Shuili had originally thought this thing could defend against monsters or be set up in advance to ambush other players during a Highway Merge.
Unexpectedly, it was a tireless all-night hunting device!
It is just a pity she did not know if the harvest probability was high.
She could not leave the vehicle's six-meter radius at night, but she could certainly set up a trap at the rear of the vehicle after getting out.
Cheng Shuili got out of the vehicle clutching the newly crafted Simple Hunting Trap. Fortunately, she had not taken off anything she was wearing, and the safety rope was still tied, so she did not need to put it on again.
Perhaps because she was holding the Simple Hunting Trap, as soon as Cheng Shuili stepped out, she saw green circles behind the vehicle, which meant they could be placed there.
She walked around the vehicle and only saw two green circles.
That meant her vehicle could currently only accommodate two.
Cheng Shuili returned to the shopping cart, crafted another one, and set up both traps before getting back into the vehicle.
As soon as she opened the group chat, she saw a message from Liang Shanbo tagging her.
【Liang Shanbo vs. Pig】: Boss, do you still need any? I just realized I have a few more!
Just in time!
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Give them to me. I will craft a few Simple Hunting Traps for you all.
A dozen minutes later, Cheng Shuili sent the items to them one by one.
Following Cheng Shuili's description, the others quickly saw the green circles at the rear of their vehicles.
Wan Yi only had one, New Snow had two, and Liang Shanbo also had two.
After setting them up, they started chatting in the group again.
【Wan Yi】: Are there really prey at night? Except for those monsters, I have never seen anything alive.
【New Snow Clearing】: I haven't either. Judging by the description, it might appear randomly. It feels like catching prey depends entirely on luck.
【Liang Shanbo vs. Pig】: It should be able to catch something.
【New Snow Clearing】: Is this the confidence of a lucky person?
Cheng Shuili smiled and brought up business again.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: @New Snow Clearing, this trap only requires three materials, which you should all know. Iron blocks and iron nails are too common, so they are not worth much to collect. That leaves the rope. You can collect it at a low price, and tell me when you have enough. I will do the processing, and you sell the rope.
【New Snow Clearing】: Okay, Boss! I have been waiting for these words!
Cheng Shuili closed the group chat and turned her gaze back to the two hunting traps she had just set up.
The night was deep, and the world outside the vehicle was wrapped in thick darkness, with only the faint light from the shopping cart casting a circle of dim yellow halo around it.
"I wonder what I will catch tomorrow..." she muttered to herself, her fingers tapping the workstation unconsciously.
It was time to rest.
Cheng Shuili checked the vehicle door, and after confirming it was locked, she untied the rope from her body and took off the Polar Cold-Proof Suit she had been wearing all day.
Her body, tired from the day, felt nothing but comfort when lying flat on the sofa.
Cheng Shuili closed her eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep.
On the fourth day of the Extreme Cold, the strong wind stopped, leaving only the snow that was still falling.
Cheng Shuili had a complex dream with no logic at all last night, and she was still a bit dazed when she opened her eyes.
As usual, she looked out through the vehicle window first. The monsters were watching covetously outside the protective barrier, but they seemed a bit frozen, as they were unable to react to her gaze now.
How pitiful.
Cheng Shuili put on the Polar Cold-Proof Suit and, after thinking for a moment, decided to tie on the safety rope before getting out to see if the Simple Hunting Traps placed last night had caught any prey.
What a pity.
There was absolutely no sign of them being triggered.
Cheng Shuili guessed that the probability of catching prey might be affected by the weather. Now that the snow was falling so heavily and the weather was so cold, the probability of catching prey would definitely decrease.
It was still early, and there was no movement in the group chat.
Cheng Shuili scrolled up and saw that Liang Shanbo and New Snow had been chatting until after one o'clock last night.
Do these two people not sleep?
She thought about it and sent the first message of the day.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: I checked my traps, and there is nothing. How about you guys?
Only Wan Yi replied.
【Wan Yi】: Me neither.
No surprise there.
Cheng Shuili held the Golden Rice Bowl and started eating breakfast.
This morning it was soy milk.
But Wan Yi hadn't opened any soybeans or a soy milk machine.
This bowl of soy milk was made from soy milk powder.
Cheng Shuili had originally been lamenting Wan Yi's good luck, but she was a bit speechless after hearing this.
However, the taste was still good.
The bigger surprise was yet to come.
When she drank the last mouthful, the Golden Rice Bowl, which had been silent for a long time, gave her another surprise!
【Triggered The Wealthiest Person's Daily Necessities specific surprise! The God of Luck will favor everyone who eats well! Stamina +1】
Cheng Shuili's stamina was now 38.
