What's the crash? I'm playing the game normally.

Chapter 743 Chu Xuan's underwear can awaken mysteriously! An abstract phenomenon that even Bai Wan couldn't predict.
Listening to Bai Wan's complaints, He Hua, Li Hailong, and the others remained silent, watching the merchant who had been crushed to death, unsure of what to say.

However, they also received a system notification that they had been selected for the highlight reel and received 5,000 points, which can be exchanged for items later on and are very valuable.

I actually killed the merchant... and gained 5,000 points.

Wow, the second-ranked golden cat on the leaderboard only has 1000 points!

“It wasn’t us who got it, it was him…” He Hua silently focused her gaze on Bai Wan, watching the young man who was cursing and complaining about how useless the merchant was while touching the equipment.

At this moment, two thoughts couldn't help but pop into He Hua's mind. The first was, where did this guy come from, and what is his strength like? The second was, just how thick-skinned is this guy?
Two questions remained deeply etched in He Hua's mind.

In the end, wasn't it your apple orchard that crushed them? How come you're blaming the poor businessman instead... This is the first time in He Shenghua's life that he's seen such shamelessness.

However, it is exceptionally powerful and outrageous.

Bai Wan has not shown any fighting power so far, but he has created a miracle by relying on Xie Liting and Apple Mountain.

This made Li Hailong, Zhang Liang, and Tang Huo all look at Bai Wan, who was now the only focus of the team.

Soon, Bai Wan revealed a satisfied smile, because he had indeed unearthed a treasure from the merchant.

In addition to the items listed on the product label, Bai Wan also obtained something good.

He now held an antique treasure map in his hand.

It is engraved with subtle patterns that describe the merchant's treasure and the ashes of his family.

Bai Wan looked at the instructions with curiosity.

The merchant's entire family is buried here; these ashes are extremely valuable, and there are two options to choose from:

1. You can bury the ashes of a merchant family in a feng shui auspicious location to receive a large amount of ghost coins as a reward.

2. The ashes of the merchant family can be used on eerie items to awaken eerie items of special quality or lower (this option is extremely immoral and not supported by the system).

Bai Wan's eyes lit up when he saw the treasure map, and he exclaimed with delight, "What a treasure! This way, my strange artifact can be awakened!"

Li Hailong and He Hua both opened their mouths slightly, as if they wanted to say something. But seeing that Bai Wan's eyes were fixed on the second option, the eerie prop "Awakening," as if she hadn't seen the other option at all, they ultimately didn't say anything.

However, it can awaken special curse-level supernatural items, which is indeed quite precious.

Special Curse-level items are second only to Abyss-level bizarre items.

Although Li Hailong and his companions did not possess any special cursed items, even awakening ordinary strange items was still extremely powerful.

The crowd was somewhat envious, but ultimately no one had any other thoughts, since it was Bai Wan who had obtained it.

Furthermore, they were unsure of Bai Wan's character; he had already generated an incredibly strong sense of mystery in their minds.

Bai Wan didn't care about all that; instead, she was taking stock of her strange props.

Finally, he thought of his Chu Xuan underwear.

This thing is a special curse and eerie prop. He has been wanting to awaken it for a long time but has not found the opportunity. Now, as long as he finds the location of the treasure map, he can awaken Chu Xuan's underwear!
"this…"

Even someone as abstract as Bai Wan couldn't have imagined what kind of bizarre thing Chu Xuan's underwear would look like.

But Sister Chu Xuan should be very happy, if her underwear can be awakened.

Bai Wan smiled brightly.

After successfully killing the merchant, the group continued to move the apples, transporting them all to the side of the wooden house. They then used the blood planks they had obtained from the old woman to temporarily build a storage room for the apples.

Of course, due to the large quantity, it was impossible to fit them all in; only a few were stored for emergency use.

Another large batch of apples was placed into the spatial ring exchanged with the merchant.

"Food, gold coins, fuel, and some necessary items—we've got everything. That should last us a long time. Next, we'll need to use the gold coins to exchange for some defensive and offensive weapons." A hint of excitement flashed in He Hua's eyes. This start was absolutely invincible; they'd even killed the merchant.

The apples that were originally intended for exchange were returned to their hands.

Next, all you need to do is exchange the 2000 gold coins you have for the defenses built in the wooden house and the weapons you have, and their safety level will be greatly improved.

For the next two days, Bai Wan and his group were no longer a threat. They spent their days searching for weapons, while Bai Wan's goal was the merchant's treasure, hoping to find an item that could awaken Chu Xuan's underwear.

However, the journey was not very smooth. The mysterious shop had not reappeared, so Bai Wan and the others had no use for their 2000 gold coins for the time being.

As the seventh day passed, the situation in Zone C began to become dangerous, because food and fuel were usually plentiful on the seventh day, so many people began to take action.

system hint:

The Dark King Squad has defeated the Dragonfly Squad and received generous rewards.

The Dark King Squad has defeated the Potato Squad and received generous rewards.

...

"Damn it, the Dark King is actually in our area." He Hua gritted her teeth, her expression somewhat solemn.

"Sister, is it that Dark King?" Li Hailong's face turned pale.

"It's definitely him, this ID..."

"Who is the Dark King?" Bai Wan asked curiously. Tang Huo and Zhang Liang, who were newcomers, were also not quite sure.

He Hua, looking rather grim, explained, “It’s a terrifying monster squad, led by a pair of brothers who make a living by hunting players. Their real-life identities seem to be S-class international fugitives from other countries. They are extremely powerful, having been near-landlord level experts in the last competition, which means they were among the top three on that continent.”

"At that time, he had slaughtered all the players on the entire continent. It was just bad luck that he encountered two Lord-level players who joined forces to fight against the brothers, which stopped their killing spree. Their strength was already very close to that of Lord-level players."

"Actually, we developed very well this time. If we could exchange all the gold coins for weapons, we wouldn't be afraid of them. But we've been unlucky because we can only choose one of the three paths each time. The first time we encountered a shop, we didn't have any gold coins, and now that we have gold coins, we haven't encountered a shop yet."

He Hua was somewhat troubled. Their start this time was fantastic. They had no shortage of resources, food, water, and even some functional knives. The only problem was their combat strength. If they could just exchange all of their two thousand gold coins for combat power, they wouldn't be afraid of the Dark King.

However, given their current lack of combat power, this pile of apples and resources is the biggest resource package for the enemy.

"What should we do now?" Zhang Liang asked somewhat flusteredly. Although he didn't know anything about the Dark King, it sounded terrifying, after all, he was a powerhouse close to the level of a Lord of the Continent.

“What we need now is to build some defenses for our cabin. I know about the Dark King’s abilities; his younger brother is particularly good at destroying cabins. If the cabin is destroyed, everything will be over when night falls. So we must find materials to reinforce our cabin.”

"However, there's not enough time now. We can only hope to find a shop or some reinforcement materials." He Hua frowned slightly.

They had a good start, but this time the merchant didn't have the defensive materials for the wooden house, and the old lady's bloodwood plank defense was not enough in the hands of the Dark King.

"A defensive wooden hut?" Bai Wan began to think.
What materials can be used to modify the log cabin?
As he was thinking, Bai Wan suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He took out the liquid he had taken from the old lady's IV drip from his pocket.

The liquid has a remarkably strong restorative effect. The old lady's body was on the verge of death, but the liquid was able to sustain her life. What's even more amazing is that the IV drip continues to produce liquid.

Bai Wan then looked at the scene replica capsule that had been dropped from the merchant's hands.

With this mirroring ability, he can replicate 49 old ladies, making a total of 50 with the original old ladies!
Suddenly, a mind-blowing idea popped into my head.

He envisioned the most abstract defensive wooden hut in history.

With this wooden house, the likes of the Dark King are simply no match for it.

With that thought in mind, Bai Wan set off alone.

He arrived at the old lady's house and gave her a devilish smile as she lay in her hospital bed.

"I'm here to exchange for something again. This time, I'll borrow your body for a bit."
