Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

"Miss, please don't misunderstand, I didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to ask what your bait is?"

That's already a bit presumptuous.

"The bait was bought in the trading hall."

The man who struck up the conversation was named Lü Yan. His family was well-off; his mother and two older brothers were all gene warriors, and his father worked for the government of the safe zone. He was the youngest, and his awakening with the drug had failed. He liked to eat fish and also enjoyed fishing. He had just been sitting diagonally opposite Chang Dongning, fishing and watching her reel in her line every now and then.

"Excuse me, miss, I really enjoy eating fish, but I haven't caught anything all day. Can I use my points to buy your bait? The price is negotiable."

"Not a single one caught?" Chang Dongning was somewhat surprised, as there were quite a few fish in the river.

At most, there's nothing to eat; how could it be that not a single one was caught?

Lu Yan was a little embarrassed, and nodded: "Well, I'm having bad luck today, how about I buy you a box of bait for 300 points?"

Chang Dongning: "..."

Rich people, even though fish isn't cheap, two or three moderately irradiated fish wouldn't sell for 300 points, right?

"You..."

"Four hundred points, sell me a box."

Chang Dongning swallowed back what he was about to say: "I didn't buy my bait at the trading center, and it wasn't sold in boxes."

Lu Yan took out an empty bait box: "Then just fill this box for me."

Chang Dongning glanced at the box in his palm. She had casually opened a sealed bag containing chicken giblets that morning, cut off a piece, and went out. When she was fishing, she cut off pieces one by one. It was too hot, and after being outside for several hours, the chicken intestines had started to smell a bit off.

"That's all we have; it shouldn't be enough to fill your box."

"What's this... your intestines?"

"Hmm, the intestines of the rainbow pheasant. I forgot to buy bait beforehand, so I just grabbed some from home before leaving this morning."

"Are you going fishing this afternoon? If so, give me half of it, and I'll give you two hundred points."

Chang Dongning thought for a moment and said, "I'm not going fishing this afternoon, you can have it all."

She handed him the small bag containing the chicken intestines. She had a few of these bags at home; they were made of the same material as the jacket she wore while collecting the intestines—breathable, waterproof, and scratch-resistant.

"Thank you, thank you. Let's add each other as friends, and I'll transfer 400 points to you."

"Just transfer it directly." Chang Dongning held out his watch. Transferring points doesn't require adding friends; he set the amount, and the two watches just need to touch.

"Alright." Lü Yan transferred the points with some regret.

In the afternoon, Chang Dongning went to the spinach area. There were many people collecting spinach, and almost every leaf had traces of testing. It took her an entire afternoon to get a large spinach leaf with moderate radiation.

I folded the spinach leaves and tucked them under the radish, then, carrying my basket and fish, I finished today's harvest.

On the way back, Lü Yan saw that she was very happy and raised the bucket with the lid on in her hand, which looked like she had made a good haul.

Chang Dongning nodded but didn't say anything, and casually found a place to sit down.

Before the shuttle bus started moving, a vehicle came from a distance, overtook their bus, and left. Chang Dongning knew that it was a mercenary vehicle. The fixed gathering points arranged by the safe zone were for ordinary people. Mercenary teams went to more distant and dangerous places, while the troops belonging to the government would go to even more distant places to develop resources. High risk often means high income.

When Chang's father was alive, he was in a private mercenary group. Sometimes, when they discovered some low-risk areas, the mercenary group would specially arrange for family members to go and collect resources for two days, and the harvest was very rich.

Even with these fixed shuttle bus collection points, it's difficult for people from shantytowns to join. People from shantytowns have to pay two points to enter the safe zone. The shuttle bus departs from inside the safe zone, giving priority to residents within the safe zone. If the bus is full, people from shantytowns will be refused entry, and those two points will be wasted.

It is said that the shantytown has its own shuttle bus, which is not arranged by the government but is privately organized. It does not have a fixed location, and it is not as careful as the government in determining the safety of the collection location. It only looks at the output. If the output is high, a bus can be gathered to go.

On the bus, Chang Dongning half-closed her eyes, pondering whether she should find an opportunity to disguise her spatial abilities as supernatural powers. She wanted to go to farther places.

She also wanted to move Chang Xuan further into the inner circle. If Chang Xuan did not awaken his self-awareness, she would have to prepare awakening potions for him. The higher the grade of the awakening potion, the higher the chance of successful awakening, and of course, the more expensive it was.

The original owner used an intermediate-level awakening potion, which cost as much as 200,000 points. In order to buy the potion, Chang's father also borrowed a lot of points from the mercenary team, which was not paid off until two years before the original owner became pregnant.

The problem now is that this body's physical abilities, whether awakened as a gene warrior or a superhuman, will undergo a massive boost in physical strength and senses. Her physical abilities, however, are those of an ordinary person in the wasteland. During this time, she has done extensive research on her watch, gathering both factual and unsubstantiated information, and has extracted a potentially effective method.

Because of her weak body and the lack of low-radiation foods, her spatial abilities remained latent. Her body was constantly accumulating energy until a certain opportunity arose. Moreover, because the space was relatively large, her physical abilities and five senses did not improve significantly.

There are real cases of this. In other safe zones, there have been cases where people awakened their powers several years later, and others who only awakened their powers but did not experience any changes in their physical abilities. She plans to combine these two situations.

Although the wasteland has been around for nearly a century and gene-awakening drugs have been developed, the human body remains a profound subject, undergoing unpredictable mutations almost constantly, just like all other creatures in this world.

This is what her school teacher told her before she took the medicine: don't assume that the lack of change in physical strength and the five senses means that the awakening has failed completely; any difference should be pointed out.

Unfortunately, the original owner mistook her intuition about plants for luck.

When she got home, Chang Dongning said a few words to Chang Xuan, who was waiting at the door, and then went to cook.

"Mom, what's this?"

"Oh, this is a fish." Chang Dongning caught two fish, one of which had only one large bone and no bony bones at all. She cooked the fish, but since she didn't have any ginger at home, it tasted a bit fishy, ​​but it was still okay.

After finishing her meal, she chopped up two radishes and placed them in a winnowing basket, preparing to dry them to make dried radish pickles. She also dried the radish leaves along with them.

"Xuanxuan, take this out to dry in the yard tomorrow."

"it is good."

Put another fish and a large spinach leaf into the refrigerator.

As Chang Xuan was watching his educational cartoons that night, the ocean was mentioned. Chang Dongning swallowed hard; she suddenly craved seafood. However, the safe zone they were in was far from the sea, and even dried seafood was ridiculously expensive, let alone fresh seafood.
