Life-Threatening News

This was the most important and direct piece of information. It wasn't that she wasn't worried; her heart was hanging by a thread too.

But she had understood since she was young: the higher the waves, the more valuable the fish!

The better the opportunity, the more risk one had to bear.

New Snow Clearing kept only one day's worth of compressed biscuit and bottled water for herself!

Everything else was put on the line!

If it really came down to being completely tapped out, there would still be supply crates tomorrow.

【New Snow Clearing】: Collecting water containers.

【Psychopath】: Hahahaha, why is this so funny? New Snow Clearing says nothing, just mindlessly shouting about collecting water containers.

【Welding Big Sis】: @Yun Shui Han, you're playing the lute to a cow, hahahaha. I feel sorry for you.

【Yi Xin】: Did anyone manage to find wood today? I opened several supply crates and didn't see the shadow of a single piece of wood.

Cheng Shuili was curious about this news too; after all, her own crate-opening experience today could be called quite magical.

【Welding Big Bro】: I opened some, but not much. Only enough to burn for half a day.

【Chen Chen】: Half a day isn't much? Heavens, please grant me some wood too!

【Full Moon in the Sky】: You should call out to Old System; beg the system to refresh one for you.

【Don't Say】: Stop telling cold jokes.

Cheng Shuili closed the regional channel.

She took out the toast she had purchased at the beastman town that afternoon. Even without opening the packaging, she could smell the unique aroma of the bread.

Cheng Shuili touched it through the bag. She had noticed when she bought it that these were likely fresh out of the oven, as the toast still held some residual warmth.

This bit of warmth had actually not dissipated even now.

Cheng Shuili raised an eyebrow. Looking at it this way, time inside the Abyss Ring seemed to be paused.

This meant that if there were any dungeons with long time spans in the future, Cheng Shuili could bring food prepared by Wan Yi inside.

Cheng Shuili took off the Polar Cold-Proof Suit she had worn all day, lay down on the sofa covered with the four-piece bedding set, and let out a long breath as she slowly relaxed her body.

Comfortable.

Cheng Shuili closed her eyes, and the sounds around her became even clearer.

The sound of snow hitting the ground was completely different from raindrops.

Only when everything was deathly silent could one hear that faint, subtle rustling.

It was very hypnotic.

Cheng Shuili's consciousness gradually drifted off, and she spent the night without dreams.

Early the next morning, Cheng Shuili opened her eyes. Overnight, the snow within three meters of the electric shopping cart had melted into water.

The snow was much lighter today, but it hadn't stopped.

Cheng Shuili remembered that the 【First Place Exclusive Key Information】 provided by the system had mentioned that on the third day of the Extreme Cold, the wind speed would suddenly increase to level ten, and one must tie a safety rope when leaving the vehicle.

This was also a piece of key information.

Cheng Shuili's sleepy eyes became alert in a second.

She opened the chat box with Glory. Their chat history was still on the information regarding the 【Beastman's Proof】.

Cheng Shuili suddenly felt that these people might not be as wealthy as she had imagined.

But they were indeed the wealthiest group of people other than herself.

Cheng Shuili grinned and sent a message directly.

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Life-threatening news, usable by tomorrow. Either you use your lives to test it out, or you buy it from me. I hope it's the latter; looking forward to your reply.

Zhao Hong opened his eyes groggily. He felt like he had just heard a special notification sound.

The only accounts he had marked as special priority were his superiors and the Crow.

He couldn't afford to neglect either.

Relying on his subconscious, Zhao Hong opened the private chat page. The moment he read the message clearly, he felt the sky had collapsed.

He sat up from the floor in one motion!

The quilt spread on the floor was messed up by his movement. Zhao Hong frowned tightly as he read the Crow's message again.

Life-threatening?

Usable by tomorrow?

Report it!

He would just have to report it!

Early in the morning, the entire organization received this news.

Yesterday, Qingshan Trek had managed to open a group chat card, making it finally convenient for them to communicate.

Zhao Hong saw the messages from each big shot intuitively.

"More news? Did he feel one scheme failed after Little Zhao ignored him yesterday, so he came up with another?"

"I believe we should communicate properly. What the Crow said is quite clear. Life-threatening news, and it's usable by tomorrow. With such a short timeframe, isn't he afraid we'll come to settle accounts with him?"

"Afraid? Can you even go find him? We can't even see our own people, let alone a stranger!"

"But what if this news really could save countless lives, and we just missed it?"

"If it really were life-saving news, couldn't he just say it directly on the regional channel? If we really don't buy it, will he just turn a blind eye to the lives of so many people? Will he just watch them die? Won't he feel any guilt?"

"Unfortunately. This is the apocalypse! I hope everyone speaking next remembers this clearly! This is the apocalypse! People with too high a moral standard don't live long. Besides! Why did he come to us? Because Little Zhao has been speaking, has been syncing information to everyone! He chose to trade with us out of that consideration! That is a gesture as well."

"@Glory Shines on Blue Star, Little Zhao, what does he want?"

Zhao Hong's expression turned stern. Why was he suddenly tagged? He hurriedly finished reading the tag, opened the chat box with the Crow to read it again, and then replied.

【Glory Shines on Blue Star】: He didn't say what he wanted, only that it's best to trade with him.

The group chat became active again.

"Drip-tight, indeed."

"What's with the riddles! Is he waiting to make a huge demand after we offer a price?"

"This kind of person should be shot!"

"The crime doesn't warrant that, but once we develop further, we must make things difficult for him!"

Zhao Hong watched as these people argued for a while longer. He picked up a pack of compressed biscuit and bit it open with his teeth.

Just as he took a bite, he saw that the person who had been silent in the group chat finally spoke.

【Qingshan Trek】: Tsk, let me be honest. Among all of us, our total assets combined don't even amount to what one person has. Develop further? If you take something that is still ethereal at this point as a bargaining chip and treat this trade with a high-and-mighty attitude, then our failure is destined.

"Chen Qingshan, you! Boosting others' morale and crushing your own prestige!"

"Qingshan is right."

The most authoritative elder finally spoke.

"He is not only the number one in our sub-region, but the number one on the entire server. He definitely possesses information we are unaware of."

"It is our honor that such a figure emerged in the Dragon Country. He is our foundation."

"Little Zhao, go negotiate; we want to buy it."

"This is 70 shards. Use this as a bargaining chip and try your best to lower the price; we don't have many resources left either."

"Everyone, no need for extra words."

"Are you content to be stepped on by a junior like this?"

"Work hard."
