Watching the Great Wall

She sighed and clicked for details.

【Blueprint Improvement: There is a certain probability of improving your blueprints. Have you noticed that most of the blueprints you obtain are “Simple” or “Normal”? That’s right! Out of respect for human civilization, most blueprints directly obtainable are the simplest and most common ones! To get better blueprints... Human! Use your wit and wisdom!】

【Note: Consuming one Energy Stone allows for blueprint improvement!】

【Note: Only once per day! If the blueprint improvement fails, the blueprint is returned, but the Energy Stone is not!】

【Note: The success rate for improvement has been increased from five percent to ten percent!】

So that was it.

Cheng Shuili’s gaze fixed on that number. So the success rate was that low; no wonder she had been failing all this time!

Besides... now that the workstation was at max level, it meant this probability would not increase any further.

From now on, improving blueprints would still depend on pure luck.

Maybe she should ask Ginger Candy to do the improvements later, since that person was so lucky.

Cheng Shuili pondered this, then clicked on the rental feature and set it up simply. Except for the sunroom, all other blueprints could be processed on her behalf, and the processing fee...

Cheng Shuili adjusted it to 150 game coins.

This kind of outsourced processing was different from the previous version!

Before, it took Cheng Shuili and 001—manpower plus an artificial intelligence—several days of hard work to deliver the goods!

Cheng Shuili did not overlook the phrase in the description: “Supports multiple players using it at the same time; customers do not need to wait in line!”

No need to wait! Orders could be produced and used immediately!

So what if it was 50 game coins more expensive? Isn't it logical for express service to cost more?

This was the processing fee for using her blueprints; for those providing their own, Cheng Shuili set it at 200 game coins.

Not only was it not cheaper, it was actually more expensive.

The reason was simple: a blueprint that someone didn't want to sell despite not having a workstation of their own must be a good blueprint.

Who doesn't want a good blueprint?

Cheng Shuili was practically begging for these people to come to her to sell their blueprints.

Setting a higher threshold was better for everyone.

After the settings were complete, a message from her automatically popped up on the regional channel.

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Fully automatic outsourced processing feature is now live! Using my blueprints requires a 150 game coin processing fee; using your own requires a 200 fee. Orders are ready instantly upon placement—no need to wait in agony! Quality guaranteed, efficiency first! Immediate delivery, say goodbye to queues!

“150? 200? Wasn’t it 100 before? You’re raising the price again?”

“Angry Crow Takes Flight, how did you become Xinxue Chu Ji?!!!”

“Is the person above blind? Look clearly: ready instantly upon placement! No need to queue for days! This efficiency is worth the extra 50 game coins, it’s a steal!”

“Is that for real? You can get it as soon as you order? What kind of god-tier technology is this?”

“I don’t believe it, I’m going to try! I’ve been wanting a washing machine for a long time!”

“Wait, 200 for providing your own blueprint? Why is that even more expensive?”

“Do you even have a blueprint in your hand to be worrying about that?!”

“I just tried it! I made a Fuel Purification Device, and it was really ready instantly! You put the materials on, and it was done in the blink of an eye! I never have to worry about not having enough gas again, hahaha. Thank you, Angry Crow!”

...

Cheng Shuili was still planning to advertise it herself, but she didn't expect the system to post a small advertisement directly.

Fine, it was quite smart too.

Watching the scrolling channel and the system notifications that began to “ding-dong,” indicating that orders had been accepted and completed, Cheng Shuili curled the corners of her mouth in satisfaction.

This workstation upgrade was truly worth it. Even if she wasn't around, she could automatically earn a stable income of game coins.

Much more useful than 001.

She picked up another strawberry and took a bite; the sweet, syrupy juice spread in her mouth.

Not bad.

The regional channel was lively for a while, then slowly quieted down.

But the fact that one could get goods immediately through outsourced processing reached the ears of every survivor. Although some who owned blueprints were dissatisfied with the higher price, they were a small minority after all and couldn't stir up any trouble.

The regional channel was still scrolling with boring information when a message suddenly attracted everyone's attention.

“The grand regional leaderboard has been updated! Go check it out!”

Cheng Shuili had just finished dinner and was idly scrolling through the regional channel; she felt a jolt of energy upon seeing this message.

She clicked on the leaderboard, but the system spun a few times as if the internet were lagging.

Even though she didn't care, Cheng Shuili couldn't help but feel nervous as she stared at the loading page.

First place...

Would it be her?

Cheng Shuili took a deep breath, and just as she was about to close the panel and reopen it, the text jumped out!

【Dragon Country Grand Region Current Phase Comprehensive Leaderboard】

【First Place: Angry Crow Takes Flight (Glory) — Score: 2870】

【Second Place: Undying War Wolf Soul (Watching the Great Wall) — Score: 2423】

【Third Place: A Gentle Kiss (No Faction) — Score: 2185】

【Fourth Place: Flying General of Dragon City (Yanhuang) — Score: 2051】

...

【Five Hundredth Place: Fierce Dog Smashes Boulder (No Faction) — Score: 630】

【Note: This is a comprehensive leaderboard, calculated by unifying the values from the Mileage Leaderboard and the Wealth Leaderboard!】

【Note: The statistical scope of this leaderboard is “all grand regions of Dragon Country”！】

Cheng Shuili smacked her lips lightly, her expression neither satisfied nor dissatisfied.

First place was secure, with a lead of over four hundred points over the second-place Undying War Wolf Soul, a clear advantage.

What was worth noting was...

Both Undying War Wolf Soul and Flying General of Dragon City were likely official personnel, right? The names of the factions were also very obvious; one was called Watching the Great Wall, and the other was simply called Yanhuang.

Every person from Dragon Country understood the meaning of these two names. It was perfectly normal for official personnel to be on the leaderboard, and Cheng Shuili was not surprised by this.

And this could also be considered a good thing, as it provided some incentive for the survivors.

What slightly surprised her was the third place, A Gentle Kiss, who was actually a player with no faction, yet their score was nipping at the heels of second place.

They were likely a bigwig from some partition who probably didn't want to create a faction or join any others.

The regional channel had already exploded because of this grand regional leaderboard, with the focus of the discussion naturally centered on the top-ranked Angry Crow Takes Flight.

“Our region’s Angry Crow is the number one in all of Dragon Country?! 2870 points! Awesome!”

“Kneeling to the bigwig! This score is a landslide lead!”

“Undying War Wolf Soul... this name, it must be an official person, right? Watching the Great Wall, it sounds reliable!”

“It seems our region really is hiding crouching tigers and hidden dragons; no, it’s hiding a true dragon like Angry Crow!”

The channel was filled with exclamation and discussion, and many players from the region felt a sense of honor.

The ID Angry Crow Takes Flight had completely made a name for itself throughout Dragon Country.

At the same time, the regional channel of another Dragon Country partition was also buzzing.

“Undying War Wolf Soul is in second place! Bigwig is awesome!”

“Our Watching the Great Wall will be the benchmark for Dragon Country from now on! Official power is indeed reliable! Dragon Country is awesome!”
