Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Is the Supermarket This Realistic Too?

Translator: 549690339

“Bitten Attribute Fruit (White): Effect – after consumption, there is a certain chance of increasing agility attribute by 1 point. Item description: This is an attribute fruit that was bitten by someone who discarded it because it didn’t taste good. Selling price: 1,000 points.”

Song Jian’s face turned ugly. His one thousand points could only buy such a haif-eaten attribute fruit with an effect of “a certain chance of increasing 1 point of agility,” which meant that there was a chance it would not increase at all, and his thousand points would have been wasted.

Putting down the Attribute Fruit, Song Jian suddenly had a bad feeling.

“The products here can’t all be this unreliable, can they?”

As expected, after browsing for a while, Song Jian’s face turned even uglier. All the products in this points area were second-hand items. It seemed that someone had obtained them, sold them to the supermarket, and the supermarket put them up for sale again. This place was just a second-hand wholesale marker.

“Assault Rifle (White), two-handed weapon, attack 21-25, equipment requirement: Level 1; Durability: 8/30”

“Charge Shield (White), one-handed shield, defense 25-30, equipment requirement: Level 1; Durability: 6/50”

“The equipment here almost all have durability under 10. Only some tools haven’t used up much durability.” Song Jian shook his head, thinking to himself.

Aside from weapons and equipment, there were many other items with special effects. However, they were similar to the Attribute Fruit either the effects were incomplete, or there was a certain chance of triggering them.

“Skill: Vajra Leg (Incomplete), can learn the first move of Vajra Leg after use. Hiss, who would buy such a thing?” Song Jian picked up a page of a book on a shelf, read it and gasped.

To Song Jian, practicing Martial Arts Secret Scrolls was a very serious matter. Learning a skill from such an incomplete page not only could not unleash its full power but might also bring other hidden dangers.

“The fully complete Vajra Leg is right next door in the product area. It only costs 600 Doomsday Coins, and this incomplete page… hah, 3,000 points.” Song Jian shook his head and put the page back.

After wandering around for a while, most of the products here were like this seemingly mediocre and disappointing. In the end, Song Jian could only buy a pickaxe and a stone axe. Both were white-quality items and had not used up much durability.

These two items would allow Song Jian to gather stone and wood materials, which he could use to upgrade and reinforce his villa, malting it even stronger. However, where he could gather these materials, Song Jian did not know yet and would have to figure it out as he went.

Leaving the points area, Song Jian glanced back. This place was like a deserted junkyard, but as long as one was willing to spend time, effort, and had some luck, it was possible to find some good items. Of course, this was assuming that one had enough consumption points.

“Where does the supermarket acquire these second-hand items? Could it be purchased from other players?” An idea suddenly emerged in Song Jian’s mind.

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. He strode to the front hall of the supermarket, walked towards the service terminal, and saw a recycling cabin. The ten zombie nuclei required for the task were placed there before being recycled by the supermarket.

Standing next to the recycling cabin, Song Jian tentatively placed a zombie fang in the recycling cabin. The service terminal quickly made a crisp “beep” sound, and several large characters appeared on the screen.

“Discovered ‘Zombie Fang,’ white quality, potion material, can be recycled. Recycling price: 1 Doomsday Coin! Confirm recycling?” fr eeweb novel

“It really works!” Song Jian muttered with a smile on his face. However, he frowned soon: “But the recycling price is a bit too low.” 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝙤𝙫𝒆𝓵.𝒄𝙤𝒎

Song Jian’s inventory contained many similar materials, ail dropped from monsters. For those with relevant skills, these items would be very useful. But for Song Jian now, exchanging them for Doomsday Coins was probably their only value.

Soon, Song Jian emptied his inventory of materials, eventually exchanging them for over seventy Doomsday Coins. Then, he tentatively placed a gold bracelet into the recycling cabin.

Unexpectedly, the service terminal emitted a piercing noise this time, accompanied by a burst of dazzling red light.

“No value item, not recyclable!” A large line of text appeared on the screen.

“It really doesn’t work. It seems I can only take it to the real world to exchange for money.” Song Jian sighed and took out the gold bracelet.

A gold bracelet like this, weighing at least over thirty grams, would be worth more than ten thousand if sold as gold in rhe real world. Adding the craftsmanship, it would be worth at least twenty thousand in a regular gold store. But here, it was considered a worthless item.

Next, Song Jian put a prepared piece of “fried meat” into the recycling cabin, and the service terminal screen displayed the recycling price.

“It’s worth this much?” Song Jian looked at rhe “32 Doomsday Coins” shown on the screen and was surprised.

“The value of a piece of zombie meat is only 1 Doomsday Coin when recycled, but after being prepared as fried meat, its value increases thirty-two times. It’s too unbelievable.” Song Jian muttered to himself. After thinking for a while, he finally had some guesses.

“Unprocessed materials are worth much less, but the value of finished products will skyrocket.”

Having this thought, Song Jian couldn’t help bur feel the pain. If he had known the corresponding skills and made all the recycled materials into finished products, how much could he have sold them for?

For a moment, Song Jian felt as if he had missed out on a fortune, and his heart ached.

The already recycled items had disappeared and could not be taken back. If he could, Song Jian would have rushed into rhe recycling cabin and snatched back all the materials he had placed inside.

T lost big this time. I lost really big!” Song Jian muttered to himself, his face filled with emotions as he stood by the recycling cabin. After a while, he gritted his teeth and went straight toward the supermarket shelves.

Before long, Song Jian held a book and swiped his membership card at the front desk.

“Great job! Congratulations to member A9527 for your first purchase at Apocalypse Supermarket! This purchase cost you 100 Doomsday Coins, granting you 100 points. We look forward to your next visit, love you!”

The cutest, most tender voice of a young girl came from rhe service desk.

“The supermarket’s attitude before and after rhe purchase is completely different! It’s so realistic! The service quality has improved so much after spending money here!” Song Jian looked at rhe empty service desk speechlessly.

At this moment, the book he held had its “sear’ status removed after paying, and was now available for learning.
