After hearing the surprised voice of the person,
Luo Xiaole was also stunned…
This was not what she had imagined…
She didn't make a sound.
Seeing her inaction, a group of people immediately surrounded her.
"Weapon Boss, it's you, right!"
"Oh my god, to meet Weapon Boss here! We're all saved!" Others became excited.
Luo Xiaole slowly felt more confident.
The only ones who could recognize her through the strawberry bear, besides the stubbled man with the lamp she met at the military base, were those she had transacted with in the residential area.
Although she didn't appear often, she always wore the strawberry bear costume when delivering goods herself, just in case.
So, word spread, and it wasn't strange that the whole residential area knew that Weapon Boss was a strawberry bear.
Seeing others so excited that they were about to pounce on her, Luo Xiaole suddenly remembered that her strawberry bear shell was very sharp.
She dodged, quickly retreating a few steps.
She created distance from the crowd.
The group then felt that they had been too enthusiastic and had offended Weapon Boss?
They also retreated a few steps, standing in a row with some respect.
"Hello! Our weapons are almost out of durability, could you trouble you to sell us new ones?" Their eyes were full of longing.
Luo Xiaole lowered her voice again.
"Yes." She agreed readily.
"The durability can be repaired, at the same price as before, and each person will receive a new weapon as a gift."
"!" Others rejoiced, what a great thing!
There was no reason to refuse!
Luo Xiaole was also happy.
After all, the cost of repairing weapons was halved, and the selling price remained the same. Enhancing another weapon was not difficult for Luo Xiaole, and even if she gave one away, she would still make a substantial profit.
Then, a pile of weapons was neatly stacked in front of her with a clatter.
"Turn around, and turn back in ten minutes," Luo Xiaole instructed again.
Everyone was very obedient.
Repairing weapons required less mental energy and was much faster.
[68 weapons have been repaired, costing 6800 mall coins. Balance: 83485 mall coins]
"Done."
Not long after, she spoke again.
"So fast!" The crowd was shocked.
When they took their weapons back into their hands, the durability indicators were very satisfactory.
Not only was the original durability fully restored, but it even lasted a little longer than before.
These weapons had accompanied them through countless battles, and they were already very accustomed to them.
Now, they didn't have to spend time adjusting to new weapons, which was exactly what they wanted!
Luo Xiaole also handed over the several daggers she had prepared in her pocket earlier, as their new weapons.
She had been using thumbtacks before, so she had used these weapons very little.
The crowd took them with satisfaction, their eyes full of gratitude.
"Thank you, Boss!"
Bosses get things done cleanly and efficiently!
"Alright, place the items you want to trade here, and you can go to the hall to rest," Luo Xiaole continued to arrange.
"Boss, we're so glad you're letting us stay for a night!"
The group was very excited and trotted into the hall in the direction Luo Xiaole pointed.
Luo Xiaole watched their retreating backs.
She cast a questioning glance at Mo Chen.
"Are these people okay?" she needed to confirm again.
"Mm," Mo Chen nodded affirmatively.
He had observed them for a long time from the shadows, and these people didn't seem like troublemakers.
He usually disliked socializing and didn't pay much attention to others.
However, due to his excellent memory, their faces appeared in his mind. He seemed to have seen them once or twice when they were looking for supplies in the residential area. They were quite honest people.
The surrounding houses were all dilapidated, and as the sky grew colder, this was the only place that seemed habitable.
Staying for one night should be fine.
Luo Xiaole was relieved after hearing this.
With a wave of her hand, the large pile of various oddly shaped items in front of her was absorbed by the system into her space, converting into mall coins.
[Your account has received 68000, balance: 151485 mall coins]
Not bad, the deposit instantly reached 150,000…
"Ding-dong-ding!"
The system's unique broadcast sounded in her mind again, unexpectedly.
[Task recharge complete: Medicine Shop activation mission has begun]
Luo Xiaole's body jolted!
A new mission had arrived!
[Host must collect 100 different types of medicine and 500,000 mall coins within one month to activate the Medicine Shop.]
[Mission completion reward: 150,000 mall coins. Failure to complete the mission penalty: all defensive functions on the host's body will be deactivated for 3 days.]
500,000!
Luo Xiaole's eyes widened. She remembered that she usually spent most of her savings once her deposit reached 200,000.
500,000 was a number she had never dared to challenge before.
Moreover, medicine was indeed much harder for her to find than food…
However, she still had a month, so she needed to hurry…
…
When Luo Xiaole returned to her room, changed out of the strawberry bear costume, and wiped the sweat from her face,
She stepped back into the hall.
The aroma of corn on the cob wafted to her nose.
Huh? Where did… corn on the cob come from?
Hearing the sound from the door, the group turned their heads and looked at her with surprise.
"You're amazing! You've survived this long!" Someone in the crowd called out unconsciously.
"Can you speak properly!" The person next to him quickly hit him.
"We all saw Little Bean Sprout in the residential area back then, and we were guessing how long she could live, and we were worried… See, she's doing fine now!"
Luo Xiaole couldn't help but chuckle.
"By the way, why are you here? Did Weapon Boss bring you here?" Others were very curious.
"So envious of you!"
"Yeah, yeah, I never expected Weapon Boss to have a mature woman's voice! I really didn't see that coming… By the way, where is she?"
Luo Xiaole touched her nose, her expression unchanged, and blurted out, "Oh, that… she was tired from repairing your weapons and has already gone to sleep. Tell me if you need anything."
"Then let's not disturb her, let her rest well!" everyone said.
"We just passed by and found these corns by the roadside. Come and eat with us! There's a stove here, just roasted!" The group was very enthusiastic.
"Yes, you're so thin, you need to eat more! It's a pity we don't have much to eat… Just make do with this."
Then, a large corn cob was placed in Luo Xiaole's hand, still emitting the aroma she had smelled earlier.
She hadn't felt such warmth in a long time.
"Wait for me," she said, turning to leave.
"System, call!" she silently called in her mind.
"Didn't we open our food stall? Do we have anything like an automatic vending machine?" This was something Luo Xiaole had thought of on the way. She had always wanted to make food her main trade.
Not only could it complement weapons, but it could also be a considerable source of income!
"Host, please wait. Do you wish to unlock the recipe item, vending machine?"
It actually existed!
"Unlock!"
She never expected to get such a vending machine for only 10,000 mall coins.
Moreover, she could automatically choose to put any type of food from her stall onto the vending machine.
The mall coins required for restocking were the same as ordering at the counter, with no additional charge.
And unsold items could be recycled by the system and converted into mall coins, allowing her to change stock at any time.
Very convenient!
She quickly stocked it with a lot of convenience foods, all of which tasted good, were filling, and easy to eat.
"Follow me," she said, placing the vending machine in a corner of an empty room next to the hall.
She led the group from the hall inside.
"Heaven! Is this a food vending machine!" Others, seeing a vending machine with such a rich variety of goods inside after a long time, were on the verge of tears!
"So many things, not only these grain energy bars, but also instant noodles and sausages!"
"Am I dead… torn apart by zombies… Is this heaven…" One person frantically wiped his eyes.
