Apocalypse - Infinite Resource System
Chapter 95: Backpack upgrade
Who is it? I don’t know this person either, but he also really wants the blueprint for the water purifier. Moreover, it seems like his situation is even worse than yours! People have starved to death in his base already! You know, if it were him, I’d feel more pity for him than for you!
Chat ID 78945 cursed silently and quickly replied, "You can’t sell it to him! I’m sure my offer is higher than his! You’re a businessperson, how can you afford to make a loss?"
Waldo almost burst out laughing. This person’s true nature was indeed showing. With just a little provocation, his real self emerged. He was just playing the emotional card earlier, trying to deceive Waldo with a barbecue grill blueprint. But now, he was claiming to be all about business?
Waldo chuckled, "But his offer is much higher than yours! He’s offering two gasoline generators! Two gasoline generators! In my opinion, that’s much better than your barbecue grill blueprint! What’s the point of a barbecue grill when I can make a simple one myself? There’s no need to exchange it for such a valuable water purifier, don’t you think?"
Chat ID 78945 panicked. "No, I can offer even more! I-I have something better than him!"
"Something better? Oh? I’d like to hear about it. If it’s good enough, I might choose you as my first choice for the trade! You see, I don’t have many water purifiers, and in case they sell out, I’ll be sorry, but I won’t be able to help you! Plus, in the future, I might even sell purified drinking water," Waldo said with a smile.
Chat ID 78945 gritted his teeth and said, "You win. I’ll trade you a backpack upgrade scroll. When I opened the supply box, I got a backpack upgrade scroll that can increase the carrying limit of all item types."
This time, it was Waldo’s turn to be surprised. "You actually got that thing? No wonder you seemed so surprised," Waldo said.
As the strength of the survivors increased, they obtained more and more resources, and the original backpack space was gradually not enough.
Many times, they had to discard some impractical items. It was then that some people got lucky and obtained a backpack upgrade scroll from the supply box.
But this item had a very low drop rate and was almost never circulated on the market. Waldo realized he had struck gold. His infinite resources didn’t take up any space in his backpack, which was a kind of "bug."
However, as he acquired more and more resources, his backpack started to get a bit cramped. But he wasn’t in a hurry and replied calmly, "It’s a good item, but you only have one, don’t you think it’s too few?"
The backpack upgrade scroll was indeed very useful, but it wasn’t indispensable. After all, they could store excess resources in the refuge instead of cramming them all into the backpack.
Chat ID 78945 hastily said, "I really don’t have anything else; there’s only this one!"
Reluctantly, Waldo said, "Alright then, list all your items: one barbecue grill blueprint, one gasoline generator, and one backpack upgrade scroll."
The other person quickly placed all the items on the trade box. Then, Waldo clicked on the trade confirmation button and happily received the items.
Walking into the house, the two women, Alanna and Helen, were busy preparing food. Waldo approached Alanna mysteriously.
Alanna noticed him and saw the close proximity between the two, feeling a bit uneasy. She casually glanced at Helen, who was focused on her task, and asked in a low voice, "What are you up to?"
Waldo grinned, "I have a surprise for you!" Helen was startled by Waldo’s sudden appearance. When she reacted, she looked at him with resentment and said in a gloomy tone, "What surprise? You were pointing a gun at our barrier earlier. Can there be any good things falling from the sky and hitting you on the head?"
Alanna chuckled when she heard Helen mention "our home," but she noticed that Waldo didn’t pay attention to that detail, so she secretly chuckled to herself.
Of course, Waldo didn’t notice this, happily saying, "Although it’s not a pie falling from the sky, it’s still a pleasant surprise. We can have a barbecue tonight!"
With that, Waldo took out the newly acquired barbecue grill blueprint and showed it to the two women. Alanna and Helen were pleasantly surprised. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Although their lives were already quite good, there was still a lack of ambiance. Alanna asked, "What did you exchange for it?" Waldo proudly replied, "A water purifier."
To their surprise, the two women’s expressions changed. Alanna complained, "You didn’t really exchange it for this, did you?" Helen also pouted, finding it hard to understand, "Waldo, why did you exchange it for such an item?"
Waldo smiled and said, "It’s not just about the water purifier. Remember a few days ago when you were chatting with Alanna, reminiscing about the BBQ from our previous life? Well, we have this now, and tonight, we’re going to have a barbecue!"
Helen blushed at his words. She didn’t expect Waldo to remember their casual conversation from a few days ago. This made her secretly have some tender thoughts in her heart. Alanna, being quick-witted, naturally noticed Helen’s change in expression.
But Waldo, with his thick skull, had no idea what Helen was thinking. "That’s good. This time, I’ll let it go since you were thoughtful. We won’t argue with you about it," Alanna said.
Waldo smirked and said, "Did you think I’m really that foolish? I exchanged not only the barbecue grill but also a gasoline generator and a backpack upgrade scroll!
From now on, we won’t have to worry about electricity usage, and our backpack won’t run out of space!" Alanna blushed for a moment. Although Helen knew the relationship between her and Waldo, they hadn’t been so intimate in public yet.
Besides, the relationship among Waldo, Helen, and Alanna had some subtle nuances. Waldo didn’t have Helen’s thick skin. As Waldo’s woman, Alanna was also quite sensitive.
Helen felt relieved after hearing Waldo’s words. "That’s good, we didn’t lose out then." "Of course not!" Waldo grinned. "Get ready, I’ll set up the barbecue grill."
With that, he headed to the open terrace on the second floor.
