Lu Chen stumbled upon the collectible in the trading post, and from the outside, it looked like a garbage bin.
In reality, its function… was that of a garbage bin.
-
【“Bottom-less” Trash Bin: Collectible, a container that will never fill, but it’s best to throw only useless junk into it, because you can never retrieve discarded items】
【Price: 5000 Gear Copper Coins (Negotiable)】
-
The seller probably thought the price of 5000 Gear Copper Coins was a bit outlandish.
So, they specifically added the words “Negotiable” at the end.
Other players could communicate with the seller through the trading post’s temporary chat room.
Lu Chen naturally would not miss this rare collectible, he directly clicked into the seller’s homepage and sent a message.
“How do you want to sell the trash bin? What are you looking to exchange for it?”
Soon, the seller replied.
“Great, I’ve had enough of the words ‘Are you there’.”
“Since you’re willing to exchange, you must also realize the value of this item, don’t try to trick me with trash.”
The seller seemed like a straightforward person, without any unnecessary words, they went straight to the point.
“Food, water, I only want these two things.”
“If you have medicine, that would be even better.”
Lu Chen saw these trade conditions and instantly raised the corner of his mouth.
Wasn’t this trade threshold specifically tailored for him?
It was estimated that among all the survivor players, there weren’t many people with more resources than him!
Not to mention, he still had the “Vending Machine” such a “divine tool”!
But Lu Chen also understood the principle of not showing off wealth.
Especially in a trade.
Whoever lost their cool first would be the one at a disadvantage.
“Food, water, these are important to everyone, including me.”
Lu Chen thought for a moment and started organizing his language.
“I can give you two cans of vegetable canned food, and a bottle of purified water.”
“Too little.”
The seller didn’t even think, directly rejecting this offer.
“If you’re not serious, then forget about it.”
“Alright, add one more can of meat canned food, this is the limit.”
Lu Chen was slowly testing the other party’s psychological bottom line.
“If you’re still not satisfied, then I can’t do anything about it.”
“…”
The seller clearly began to feel tempted.
Three cans of canned food, if saved carefully, could barely last two to three days.
It was enough for him to go to the apocalyptic city to scavenge some more supplies.
“Add one more can, and I’ll give you this collectible.”
“Food is out of the question.”
Lu Chen glanced at the various supplies stored in his wristwatch storage space.
“At most, I can give you a bottle of red wine.”
“You have wine?!”
The seller was completely dumbfounded when they saw Lu Chen’s reply.
They were still holding a trash bin as a treasure and going hungry.
Meanwhile, he was already eating meat canned food and drinking wine…
People are different, it was simply enough to make one angry!
“Do you have any more food? I can exchange other things with you.”
The seller’s attitude was clearly much softer than before.
It seemed they had understood that Lu Chen had abundant resources in his hands.
“Sorry, I only intend to exchange for this trash bin.”
Lu Chen wasn’t interested in any other goods, he directly placed the canned food and wine that they had agreed on next to the computer and initiated a trade application.
Although the seller was unwilling to let Lu Chen, this big fish, slip away, they could only agree.
After all, Lu Chen was the one selling supplies, while the seller desperately needed supplies.
If this deal fell through, the one in a hurry would definitely be the seller.
The trade process was very smooth, the canned food and wine that Lu Chen placed on the table instantly disappeared.
A few seconds later, a plain-looking trash bin appeared in front of him.
Lu Chen scanned the description of the trash bin, it was exactly the same as what he saw in the trading post.
He casually threw the beverage can he had just finished into it, but he did not hear the sound of the can hitting the garbage bin.
He leaned his head over to look, only to discover that it was empty inside, without a single piece of garbage.
“Amazing… It’s worthy of being a ‘Collectible’.”
Lu Chen was quite curious about this trash bin and gave it a word strip.
He was also looking forward to what the effect of adding a word strip to this thing would be.
【Ding! Collectible “‘Bottom-less’ Trash Bin” obtained B-Rank Word Strip: “Decomposition Recycling”】
(Decomposition Recycling: Items thrown into the trash bin will be automatically disassembled into materials and returned, if unable to be decomposed, it will be converted into a certain amount of Gear Currency)
-
This trash bin actually had a B-Rank word strip!
Lu Chen looked at the trash bin in front of him with a mixture of amusement and disbelief.
He had painstakingly given a Word Strip to He Hua with the ability seed, and it was only a E-Rank word strip.
What was the reason why this trash bin was worthy of a noble B-Rank Word Strip—
But the effect of this word strip was really not bad.
Lu Chen casually threw another beverage can into it.
Unlike the previous situation where there was no response.
This time, a small pile of metal pieces flew out of the trash bin and landed on the ground.
【Disassembled Metal Pieces: Material, can be used to create simple items】
Lu Chen thought for a moment and picked up the metal pieces, it seemed that these were the products after the beverage can was decomposed.
Although he didn’t know what these metal pieces were used for, he decided to keep them for now.
After finishing the work at hand, Lu Chen rested for a while and then sent out invitations to Mashiro and the others.
“Amazing… I didn’t expect that there were safehouses of this standard.”
Seeing Lu Chen’s space which was much more spacious than their own safehouse,
The teleported Kiryuuin Tsukasa couldn’t help but sigh softly.
Her expression looked much healthier than before she evacuated
It seemed that the effect of the “Welfare Constitution” was not bad.
Thinking about this, Lu Chen’s mind couldn’t help but bring up the graceful and slender figure of the cherry-haired beauty in front of him, her fair skin, and her plump…
“Cough.”
A seemingly unintentional cough interrupted Lu Chen’s daydreams.
“….Mashiro, when did you arrive?”
Lu Chen greeted the black-haired girl with a calm expression.
Shirasaki Mashiro snorted softly, speaking in a volume only the two of them could hear.
“While you were thinking about some lewd things about Teacher Kiryuuin.”
“You know me so well, it’s truly touching.”
“Can your touching be used in the right place?”
While they were exchanging glances, He Hua also came out of the teleportation light.
The team members who had just been evacuating together in the dangerous zone had reassembled in this room.
“Lu Chen, although it’s a bit sudden…”
For some reason, Mashiro seemed a little uneasy as she made a request to Lu Chen.
“Can our team add another member?”
“You mean Teacher Kiryuuin?”
Lu Chen didn’t think much of it, he nodded.
“Of course.”
“Uh… I mean, besides Teacher Kiryuuin.”
Shirasaki Mashiro hesitated for a moment, but finally, she said what she had to say.
“Before I came here, I talked to Teacher Kiryuuin.”
“Besides us, she also found another classmate from the school in the channel.”
“Her situation isn’t very optimistic, so I want to help her.”
After finishing, Mashiro looked at Lu Chen’s expression with some trepidation.
She knew this request was a bit self-indulgent.
After all, the entire team was consuming Lu Chen’s resources.
One more person meant one more expense.
Sure enough, Lu Chen’s brows gradually furrowed.
He didn’t want people he didn’t know to join the team.
But this was Mashiro’s request…
“Can I ask about the identity of that classmate?”
This time, the one who answered him wasn’t Mashiro, but Kiryuuin Tsukasa, the teacher.
“Of course, I can guarantee that she is an excellent student.”
The female teacher pushed her non-existent glasses, confidently guaranteeing.
“As for her name… her name is “Futaba Riou”, she’s the president of the Science Club.”
