Chapter 9: Those Who Need Bread Send Me A Private Message

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Grimm decided not to make the poison fluid bomb for the time being because he did not have the blueprint for the cannon fort.

He put away all the supplies and was about to check the information on the communication channel when he suddenly saw a patch of cosmic supplies appearing not far away.

“The supplies are here!”

Grimm immediately ordered the spaceship to change direction and move in the direction of the supplies.

In less than five minutes, the spaceship approached the supplies.

Grimm clearly saw that there were two metal chests among the supplies. Those were universe treasure chests. In the universe treasure chests, one could get a lot of important supplies.

“Mechanical claw, capture two space treasure chests first. Don’t leave any other supplies behind!”

As he gave the order, the highly efficient automatic mechanical claw began to capture the supplies.

[ You have captured a space treasure chest x 1! ]

[ Acquired: Compact Alloy X 1! ]

[ Acquired: Mechanical Module X 1! ]

[ Acquired: Toast X 1! ]

“There’s food?”

Grimm smiled. After a toast was multiplied by a hundred fold…

The next moment, the sound of a system notification sounded.

[ The hundred fold increase has taken effect! ]

[ Compact alloy X 1 has been increased by a hundredfold, compact alloy x 100! ]

[ Mechanical module X 1 has a 100-fold increase, mechanical module X 100! ]

[ Toast X 1 has a 100-fold increase, toast X 100! ]

“Beautiful!”

In an instant, Grimm had so much food that he could not finish it. Even if he ate three pieces of toast a day, it was enough for him to eat for more than a month.

Of course, if he kept the toast in his hands for too long, it would probably go bad.

Since the players needed food now, he might as well sell the bread and trade for some rare materials or special items.

Just as he thought of this, another space treasure chest was captured by the mechanical claw.

[ You have captured Space Treasure Chest x 1! ]

[ Acquired: normal alloy x 2! ]

[ Acquired: Energy Ore X 1! ]

[ Acquired: Basic Cannon Fort Data Card X 1! ]

“Data Card?”

Just when Grimm was puzzled, the materials he obtained got a 100-fold enhancement effect.

[100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ]

[ Normal alloy x 2 has a 100-fold enhancement. Acquired normal alloy x 200! ]

[ Energy ore X 1 has a 100-fold enhancement. Acquired Energy Ore X 100! ]

[ Basic Cannon Fort Data Card X 1 has a 100-fold increase, dual-barrel rapid-fire Battery Data Card X 1! ]

Grimm did not look at the two materials he got carefully. Instead, he took out the data card and looked at it in confusion.

As he took out the reward, a black data card appeared in Grimm’s hand. This thing looked a bit like a USB drive. After reading the description, he understood what this thing was used for.

[ Dual-barrel rapid-fire turret data card ]

[ Description: the Data Card stores the manufacturing principle of the dual-barrel rapid-fire turret. As long as the data card is inserted into the control station, the internal data can be read. ]

Grimm smiled.

This was equivalent to unlocking a construction principle, and it had a 100 times amplification!

He impatiently inserted the data card into the console.

Next, he opened the technological construction interface, and sure enough, there was an additional construction principle diagram.

[ Dual barrel rapid fire turret: 100 basic energy points, mechanical module X50, compact alloy X100, chip module X 2]

[ Description: it has two barrels, and can shoot ordinary shells and all kinds of special shells at high speed. The advantage is high efficiency, but the disadvantage is low accuracy. ]

Grimm nodded. Although the accuracy of the cannon fort was not high, the firing speed was definitely unquestionable. It was acceptable to use the attack frequency to make up for the loss of attack accuracy.

Now that he had enough materials, Grimm decided to start building the gun battery.

As he gave the order, the spaceship’s energy reserve decreased from 410 basic energy points to 310 points.

Rays of welding white light appeared on the top of the spaceship. In less than 10 minutes, the two-barrel rapid-fire turret was completed.

The next moment, a system notification appeared.

[100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ]

[ Two-barrel rapid-fire turret has received 100-fold enhancement, acquired six-barrel rotary rapid-fire turret! ]

“Six-barrel… Gatlin?”

Gatlin was only a type of heavy machine gun, but what he got now was a turret!

Check the description.

[ Six-barrel rotating rapid-fire cannon battery ]

[ Description: it has six barrels and can shoot at a high speed. It can dynamically calibrate its target. The only drawback is that it requires too many shells! ]

Indeed, if its firing speed was comparable to Gatlin’s… then the number of shells needed could be imagined.

Grimm had a slight headache.

Because the poison liquid explosive shells that he had unlocked could be fired through these six tubes of rapid-fire turrets, but each explosive shell required 10 points of basic energy.

This bit of energy didn’t seem to be much, but if he were to prepare the shells according to the firing speed of these six tubes of rapid-fire turrets, he would need at least 100 starting shells?

Producing 100 poison liquid explosive shells would require 1000 points of basic energy!

Grimm shook his head and decided to wait until tomorrow’s basic energy was provided before considering making poison liquid bombs. It was safer to keep the basic energy points in reserve for now.

As the mechanical claw captured some more materials, the spaceship only had 290 basic energy points left. They could not be wasted anymore.

All the materials in the vicinity had been plundered. Grimm opened the communication center and planned to release a message about selling food.

[ I have 100 pieces of toast. If you need it, you can contact me privately. Basic materials are not considered. If you have rare materials and special items, the price can be negotiated! ]

Once this message was posted, the players were all stunned.

[ What? Am I seeing things? 100 pieces of Toast? ]

[ This is f*cking impossible. The game has just started, how can there be so much food? ]

[ You’re a liar right… ]

[ Boss, I have glass can we trade? ]

Grimm replied.

[ For materials like glass, 10 pieces for one servings of toast. ]

[ What? This is too expensive! ]

[ Profiteers! ]

Grimm didn’t care how these people ridiculed him. Everyone’s goal was to survive. He wasn’t a philanthropist. If there was food, why not take the opportunity to make a fortune?

Not long after, he received a private message.

[ Boss, I’m really starving. I’ll trade 10 pieces of glass! ]

[ No problem! ]

His trade conditions were met, Grimm didn’t hesitate and directly sent the transaction content to the other party. In the next moment, the transaction notification appeared.

[ Transaction successful, obtained: glass X10! ]

Immediately after, another private message was sent.

[ Boss, I only have nine plastics here. The rest are basic materials. Can I use nine plastics and five ordinary alloys to trade? ]

[ Although it doesn’t meet my transaction requirements, I can see that you are sincere. Deal! ]

[ Thank you, Boss. Thank you so much! ]

Grimm didn’t stand on ceremony and straight up sent the transaction contents. In the next moment, he received the corresponding materials.

After receiving more than a dozen private messages, Grimm finally saw a special item.
