"A nuclear lighter?!"
Bai Cheng was startled, then a look of wild joy appeared on her face.
It wasn't just the stark difference caused by the item upgrade; the most important thing was that cheng book had even granted her a point of freely assignable attribute!
The lighter was still the same, except its entire body was made of metal, and no power supply was visible inside.
But the faint white glow that originally emanated from it had now turned golden, indicating the item's extraordinary nature.
"Then, doesn't that mean if I just keep upgrading simple items, I can guarantee one free attribute point every day?" Bai Cheng immediately had a plan.
cheng book had a twenty-four-hour cooldown for changing upgraded items, which meant she could still choose another item to upgrade today.
By this time tomorrow, it should definitely be upgraded to maximum level, right?
Bai Cheng then opened her personal information; at the initial Station, she had only glanced at it roughly and hadn't paid too much attention.
Lieche Zhang (Train Conductor) - Title: Bai Cheng
Level: None
Strength: 3 (Standard 10)
Physique: 4
Spirit: 5
Talent: cheng book
But now it seemed that her initial 3/4/5 three-dimensional attributes were a full 18 points short of a healthy adult male!
Of course, almost no one could achieve full three-dimensional attributes in the initial state.
But for Bai Cheng, the gap between her and ordinary people was still huge.
"This body is just a vase, besides being good-looking, it's incredibly weak..." Bai Cheng couldn't help but complain about herself.
Because of the free attribute points, a faintly flickering '+1' symbol now appeared at the end of each of her data points on the screen.
She could add attribute points to herself with a gentle tap of her finger.
"This world really is like a game." But Bai Cheng knew that if she died here, there would be no resurrection coin for her.
"Strength, Physique, Spirit, if described in game terms, would they be more like Attack, HP, and Magic Power?"
Bai Cheng already had a plan for allocating the free attribute points.
She needed to survive, and strength was indispensable; furthermore, her strength attribute was even lower than physique, so she planned to develop both equally.
As for spirit, she would consider it when it became necessary.
As Bai Cheng's finger tapped the screen, her strength attribute increased by one point.
At the same time, she could clearly feel her body getting a slight boost, her strength becoming greater.
Pushing the railcar again, Bai Cheng continued her journey.
Although her strength had increased, this time she only traveled for about half an hour before becoming exhausted again, panting heavily.
"Grumble...." Her stomach protested loudly.
Before crossing over, Bai Cheng had just woken up and hadn't even had time to eat, so her body couldn't hold on any longer.
"It seems not only is my body weak, but I also ate one less meal than others..." Bai Cheng complained weakly.
If she had known, she wouldn't have exercised first...
Although supplies were scarce, Bai Cheng had no other options.
She sat on the table, first taking out cheng book and setting the small dagger as the upgrade target.
Bai Cheng guessed that the upgrade speed for such basic tools should be very fast, and then she could increase her own attributes by another point.
"Not-so-sharp Dagger: 0 / 20"
The condition for using this survival knife was not, as Bai Cheng thought, to swing it in the air, but to use the dagger to cut objects.
Bai Cheng still needed to eat, so she could only temporarily set the dagger aside.
Then, she tore open the compressed biscuit packaging, opened a bottle of water, and didn't forget to open the channel chat, eating and 'spying' on the survival progress of other survivors.
"What kind of environment did you all encounter after leaving the initial Station? I'm in a grassland here; although there aren't many resources, the scenery is quite nice!"
"Upstairs +1, I'm also in a plain, looks like there's no danger."
"Me too, but what's the use of good scenery? Without food and water, we won't even last the five-day safe period, everyone's going to kick the bucket!"
"A bunch of idiots! The railcar goes 10 kilometers an hour; as long as you push for ten hours a day, you can definitely reach First Station in five days. If you have time to chat, you might as well focus on pushing the cart!"
"By the way, everyone be careful of the treasure chests on the roadside; they are all guarded by wild beasts... Although I got the treasure chest, I was also seriously injured. If anyone has antibiotics or hemostatic medicine, I can exchange supplies for them..."
"Ji Ni is too beautiful!!"
"......"
In an instant, many private messages from strangers popped up on Bai Cheng's screen.
She originally thought they were true fans coming to defend their idol, but she didn't expect them to be...
"Miss Bai Cheng, are you selling socks? I'll trade water for them 【grinning emoji】!"
"Beautiful girl, you're so pretty, do you have any original scent ones 【covering mouth emoji】?"
"Mommy!"
Bai Cheng: ......
This was the downside of real names, not to mention a face that could make people instantly aroused as an avatar.
She wasn't a hater; the daily Number of speeches was there to be used.
The most important thing was that Bai Cheng wanted to see if her horny best friend was also on the same channel as her, just trying her luck.
As for those private messages, she ignored them completely.
Just as Bai Cheng was about to close the channel, her peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of the total number of people in the bottom right corner, which had already decreased.
"Regional Channel: 9923 / 10000"
"How long has it been, and so many people have already died?" Bai Cheng felt it was incredible.
At the same time, she also realized that this was a much more brutal world than she had imagined.
After a pack of compressed biscuits and half a bottle of water, Bai Cheng finally patted her stomach with some satisfaction.
"Full health, let's go!"
Bai Cheng wasn't entirely without gains from checking the channel chat; at least two key pieces of information were confirmed.
First, everyone encountered the same environment—this grassland or hills—during the safe period. The danger level was very low, but that didn't mean there was none, and resources were relatively scarce.
The second point was... there might be treasure chests on the roadside!
As for the person who just said to hurry, Bai Cheng looked at their information and saw it was a muscular man who lifted weights.
Anyway, she didn't have that kind of stamina.
Moreover, even if she did rush to First Station without stopping, how would she solve the problem of water and food along the way?
Could a human-powered railcar really defend a Station with unknown dangers when one had nothing?
In short, with the help of cheng book, Bai Cheng still stuck to her original idea: to develop herself diligently along the way.
Soon, she picked up ten more branches in a small grove, acquiring a total of ten pieces of wood.
Six of these pieces of wood were used to make planks, which were laid on the steel-framed flatbed of the human-powered railcar.
The brown floor immediately gave the small cart a brand-new feel.
Bai Cheng successfully built a workbench, and a prompt immediately popped up on the screen.
"Congratulations! You have unlocked Stone Axe, Stone Pickaxe, Stone Spear, Simple Wooden Bed, Simple Wooden Chest..."
These were all basic tools and survival equipment, completely familiar to Bai Cheng, who had played survival games.
She looked through them carefully again and found other tools such as wooden sticks, torches, tables, and chairs.
"To get rich, first chop trees!"
"Stone Axe: Wood * 1, Stone * 1"
Bai Cheng almost without thinking used her existing resources to craft a stone axe.
"Name: Stone Axe"
"Level: White"
"Durability: 10"
"Rating: Can this even be called a tool?"
There was still one stone and three pieces of wood left on the railcar, so she crafted a stone pickaxe, using the same materials as the stone axe.
Then, Bai Cheng picked up the stone axe, got off the car, and walked straight towards the small grove not far away.
These trees were not tall, only about the thickness of a bowl, and although Bai Cheng had not learned any survival skills, she believed she could still cut down trees.
Clang—! The not-so-sharp stone axe blade struck the tree trunk, leaving a gash, and also made Bai Cheng's tiger's mouth (the web between thumb and forefinger) ache.
She frowned, chopping axe after axe.
Soon, the tree in front of her fell to the ground, instantly breaking down into a pile of wood.
"Stone Axe Durability -1"
