The end of the world is approaching, I'm handing myself over to the country.

Abandoned towns, with scrapped cars everywhere.

Wang Dameng walked to a rusty car.

He stretched out his hand and silently recited "reclaim" in his mind.

[Successfully recycled a scrapped car and earned 18 event points.]

A system notification sounded.

"Brother Meng, how much have you recovered?" Su Weijie ran over and asked.

"18 PM," Wang Dameng said.

"Such a big car, and it's only 18 PM?" Su Weijie said, somewhat disappointed.

"If we want to get first place, how many cars do we need to recover?"

"Take your time," Wang Dameng said.

"This is a perfect match for our major."

He was making plans in his mind.

18 points doesn't seem like much.

But there were ten of them, searching at the same time.

It will be very efficient.

"Brother Meng, there's a big iron frame over here!" Lin Xingde shouted.

"Brother Meng, I have an abandoned motorcycle here!" Fu Gen shouted.

Wang Dameng moved through the ruins, constantly salvaging metal.

[Received 3 event points.]

[Received 15 event points.]

[Received 21 event points.]

Points accumulate little by little.

Wang Dameng's ranking is also slowly rising.

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, ranked 914nd: Wang Dameng – 97 points.]

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, ranked 765nd: Wang Dameng – 156 points.]

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, ranked 632nd: Wang Dameng – 289 points.]

"Brother Meng, we've reached the 600th position!" Su Weijie shouted excitedly.

"Keep searching," Wang Dameng said.

He calculated in his mind while opening the activity panel to check the rankings.

They are currently in first place on the leaderboard with 5531 points.

It must be that some kind of rare ore was recycled, otherwise it would be impossible to get so many points all at once.

But it doesn't matter, there's still plenty of time.

Moreover, the monsters in the town have been mostly cleared out, so there's not much danger.

They're very fast now, and they're basically doing odd jobs anyway, so it's a good fit for their profession.

It's only a matter of time before we catch up.

"Brother Meng, take a look at this!" Wu Yongnian pointed to a half-collapsed residential building.

"There are many metal water pipes inside."

Wang Dameng walked over and, sure enough, saw a bunch of exposed metal water pipes.

He reached out and took it back.

[Received 87 event points.]

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, ranked 516nd: Wang Dameng – 376 points.]

The rankings on the leaderboard have changed again.

"Brother Meng, is there any hope for us to break into the top ten?" Lin Xingde asked.

"What's so great about being in the top ten?" Wang Dameng said.

Our goal is to finish in the top three.

His words carried an undeniable decisiveness.

The others, upon hearing this, also became excited.

Half an hour after Kun (the first of the twelve earthly branches).

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, ranked 10nd: Wang Dameng – 4890 points.]

"Brother Meng, we've made it into the top ten!" Su Weijie jumped up excitedly.

"Haha, we're rich now!" Fu Gen said happily.

Wang Dameng glanced at the points leaderboard.

The first place player has already reached over 9000 points.

The gap is still significant.

But they've figured it out.

Some abandoned factories contain even more metal.

They began to venture into the industrial area deep within the town.

"Brother Meng, over here!" Lin Xingde pointed to a huge factory building.

Inside the factory, various rusty mechanical parts were piled up.

Even the factory buildings themselves are made of metal.

Wang Dameng went inside.

He started recycling.

[Received 120 event points.]

[Received 98 event points.]

[Received 156 event points.]

Points are rising rapidly.

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, ranked 5nd: Wang Dameng – 6020 points.]

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, ranked 3nd: Wang Dameng – 8150 points.]

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, ranked 2nd: Wang Dameng – 9670 points.]

They are getting closer and closer to first place.

Just then.

[Congratulations to player Wang Dameng, your event points have exceeded 10000!]

[Reward: 10 Source Crystals]

A clear, ethereal voice rang in the ears of all the players.

Wang Dameng's body jolted violently.

He looked at his score.

11200 points.

The system beep sounded again.

[Congratulations to player Wang Dameng, your event points have exceeded 11000!]

[One Source Crystal awarded.]

Wang Dameng was stunned.

He never expected that recycling event points would actually reward him with Source Crystals.

Furthermore, once you reach 10000 points, you will receive a reward of one item for every 1000 points.

This is a pleasant surprise.

"Brother Meng, you've gotten another Source Crystal!" Su Weijie exclaimed.

"What?" Lin Xingde ran over. He had been dragging the metal sheet while running wildly and it was too noisy, so he hadn't heard anything.

"Didn't you hear me?" Su Weicai's eyes were full of surprise: "When Brother Meng's recycling points reached 10000, he gave me ten Source Crystals, and then when he reached 11000 points, he rewarded me with another Source Crystal!"

"Really?" Fu Gen also came over.

Wang Dameng checked his personal account and found that there were indeed eleven more Source Crystals in his account.

He sold all his source crystals to avoid their devaluation.

Unexpectedly, there are now new ways to obtain it.

Moreover, this method is too easy for them, and is even just a side effect.

Organizing and cleaning—the work of a handyman.

This is what they've always done!

"Brother Meng, are we about to strike it rich?" Wu Yongnian asked excitedly, his face turning red.

"Get rich." Wang Dameng repeated these two words.

A strong premonition rose in his heart.

This time, they're really going to make a fortune.

Five Kun hours later.

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, first place: Wang Dameng - 72482 points.]

[Real-world recycling event points leaderboard, second place: Orin - 69221 points.]

[Real-world recycling activity points leaderboard, third place: Yin Zixuan – 68734 points.]

Wang Dameng looked at his name on the leaderboard.

For a fleeting moment, I felt a pang of emotion; it all felt like a dream.

He was calculating in his mind.

72482 points.

This means that he obtained 72 source crystals.

72 source crystals.

If we price it at 5,000 yuan per piece...

That's 360,000.

This money was more than he had earned from selling all the source crystals before.

Moreover, this is only the result of five Kunshi, or half a day.

"Brother Meng, as long as we keep going, first place is ours!" Su Weijie's voice trembled slightly.

"We're really going to make a fortune!" Lin Xingde exclaimed excitedly.

Wang Dameng looked around.

They have recycled almost all the metal in the factory.

He looked at the Yuanjing in his personal account.

An indescribable sense of satisfaction welled up inside me.

"This is much more lucrative than killing zombies."

"It's also safer."

Wang Dameng nodded: "Let's not sleep tonight, let's work out all night."

As he spoke, he looked up at the crowd.

Everyone looked tired, but even more so, they were excited and thrilled.

Everyone was so busy they didn't need to be called upon.

They don't hate working, they hate working all day and not getting much money.

The feeling of picking up money from the ground is really addictive!

Wang Dameng: "No matter how much the final profit is, we will split it equally."

Su Weicai: "Brother Meng is awesome!"

"We have to work through the night!" Lin Xingde threw the half-section of steel bar he had dragged over onto the ground with a loud clang.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; we must make a killing!"

Fugen chimed in, "Exactly! We'll have plenty of time to sleep when we're dead. Right now, all I want to do is collect junk. Even Jesus can't stop me!"

"That's right, fuck them!" Wu Yongnian waved his fist.

"Dry!"
