At this moment, Luo Feng found Tang Xueying, and his mood had improved significantly.
After Luo Feng finished explaining things to Tang Xueying, he prepared to continue gathering materials. To survive on the sea, the supplies he had were far from enough.
Luo Feng picked up his Throwing Hook again.
Earlier, due to the interference of the great white shark, the wooden crate he had hooked was still floating halfway.
Now, without hesitation, Luo Feng pulled the crate toward him.
Opening the wooden treasure chest:
"Obtained Outstanding Grade Barbecue Grill Blueprint: +1"
"Obtained Wood: +10"
"Obtained Apple: +1"
Thousandfold Reward:
"Obtained Perfect Grade Barbecue Grill Blueprint: +1"
"Obtained Wood: +1000"
"Obtained Apple: +100"
When Luo Feng saw these rewards, he was utterly shocked.
This time, he had actually obtained a barbecue grill and apples—this was truly a massive haul.
Originally, for humans to survive at sea, food and water were absolute necessities.
A person could last seven days without food before starving to death.
But without water, they might only endure for three days at most.
Moreover, humans needed to drink freshwater—seawater couldn't be consumed directly, as it would only make them thirstier.
Thus, on the open sea, freshwater resources were extremely scarce.
Luo Feng glanced at the chat channel and noticed that no one had obtained a water purifier yet. This meant that, for now, no one could produce freshwater.
In that case, Luo Feng's apples were incredibly precious.
Coincidentally, Luo Feng was feeling a bit thirsty, so he picked up an apple and took a bite.
Crisp, sweet, and juicy.
He quickly finished the apple.
Next, Luo Feng turned his attention to the Perfect Grade Barbecue Grill Blueprint.
[Perfect Grade Barbecue Grill: 20/20 Wood, 10/10 Metal Sheets, 10/10 Rope]
Luo Feng had already gathered all the required materials.
Without delay, he chose to craft it.
"Ding! Congratulations, player. The Perfect Grade Barbecue Grill is now being crafted. Please wait a moment."
Seeing that the barbecue grill had entered the crafting countdown, Luo Feng shifted his focus back to the sea.
At the moment, there was nothing left around Luo Feng's area that he could salvage.
Everything that could be fished up had already been collected.
So, Luo Feng decided to change his objective.
He opened the chat channel to see if anyone else had made any interesting discoveries.
[Vibrator] trading for [Wood *5]
[Inflatable Doll Blueprint] trading for [Lifebuoy Blueprint]
[Common Grade Water Purifier] trading for [1L of Drinking Water]
Luo Feng saw all kinds of bizarre trade offers—there was truly no limit to what people were exchanging.
However, the [Common Grade Water Purifier] did catch his attention.
But when he saw that it was only a Common-grade item, Luo Feng dismissed the idea of making an offer.
Now that he had the Billionfold Reward System, he had no interest in such low-tier equipment.
At the very least, he'd need an Outstanding-grade water purifier—if not Perfect-grade.
Anything below that standard wasn't worth his time to craft.
Moreover, Luo Feng currently had 100 apples and wouldn't be short of water anytime soon.
Thinking this, Luo Feng decided to post a trade:
[Three apples] in exchange for [any Excellent Grade Item]
The moment he posted this trade, it immediately drew a crowd of onlookers.
"Holy shit, is Shura flexing again? I'm struggling to even get a sip of water, and he's out here trading apples."
"And the minimum requirement for this trade is Excellent Grade. This is just rubbing salt in the wound."
"I was so thirsty earlier that I drank some seawater, and now I'm even thirstier. What should I do?"
"I'd kill for an apple. Shura, give me one, and I'll even sleep with you. Deal?"
This time, Luo Feng felt somewhat disappointed by these people.
Not a single one had obtained an Excellent Grade Item.
At this point, Luo Feng formed a hypothesis—it seemed only higher-tier treasure chests contained better items.
His mind flashed back to the Bronze Treasure Chest that had floated past him earlier.
With this in mind, Luo Feng sent another message:
"Has anyone here ever opened a Bronze Treasure Chest?"
Seeing his question, people began responding.
"I saw a Bronze Treasure Chest floating on the sea, but my Wooden Raft was drifting in the opposite direction. Talk about bad luck."
"I spotted a flying Golden Treasure Chest and threw my Throwing Hook at it. Right now, I'm being dragged along by it. If I let go, I'll lose my only hook."
"I got lucky and opened a stationary Bronze Treasure Chest. Found an Inflatable Doll Blueprint inside. But I have no use for this thing. Shura, if you want it, give me an apple, and it's yours."
Luo Feng was speechless at one person's reply and quickly responded:
"Keep the inflatable doll for yourself. If anyone has high-grade materials, feel free to trade with me."
As he spoke, Luo Feng revealed just a fraction of his assets.
[500 Wood] in exchange for [Perfect Grade Blueprint]
"Holy shit, big shot!" Need a hanger for your thigh?"
"Did Shura land on an island or something? How did he gather so much wood in such a short time? Even non-stop chopping wouldn't yield this much."
"To pull this off, he must've gotten his hands on a high-tier treasure chest. No wonder he was asking about them earlier."
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Luo Feng closed the chat channel.
Ding! Shock value has reached 1,000. Maximum reward multiplier unlocked: 1,000x.
Hearing the system's announcement, Luo Feng was stunned. A 1,000x multiplier? That was insane.
Host: Luo Feng
Shock Value: 1,024
Maximum Reward Multiplier: 1,000
Now, Luo Feng was even more determined to frequent the chat channel and show off.
After all, this system was just too overpowered.
It probably wouldn't take long.
While others were still struggling to get food on their small wooden rafts, Luo Feng was already enjoying a life of luxury with fine food and drink on a yacht.
