Addiction to Pay-to-Win
Chapter 19 Addiction to Pay-to-Win
Back home, Xu Feng lost all interest in anything else.
After tidying up the house and checking the backyard, Xu Feng made breakfast and began his cultivation.
He practiced hard all day long.
For no other reason than to survive.
To survive, you need to become stronger—it's that simple.
This is a world where you can't rely on anyone but yourself.
The law of the jungle prevails; weakness is the original sin; the weak must practice more.
It wasn't until evening that Lu Fei finally came looking for her.
"It's good that you're alive."
Lu Fei's first words upon entering the room were a sigh of relief.
She hugged Xiao Dan, then looked at Xu Feng and briefly explained the outcome of the war.
"Although we won, it was a Pyrrhic victory. If Wu Da hadn't sent a War God-level expert to oversee things beforehand, something terrible might have happened."
"However, although this battle resulted in heavy losses, it also presents an opportunity for you."
After the great battle, the corpses of many mutated creatures will appear in the trading area, and the prices will definitely be very cheap.
Try to make the most of the time after taking the medication to replenish your energy.
The flesh and blood of mutated creatures are extremely nutritious, but Xiao Dan should eat little of it and drink only the broth at most.
Xu Feng nodded: "I understand. I'll find a way to pay you back for the medicine."
Lu Fei glanced at him and said, "I'm not short of money."
Xu Feng smiled and said, "That's your problem."
Lu Fei smiled and said, "Whatever you want."
"Will it be safe from now on?" Xu Feng asked as he left.
However, Lu Fei hesitated for a moment: "There won't be any major trouble, but minor troubles are hard to predict. A group of alien races has escaped and they may occasionally harass and launch surprise attacks. In short, you should still be careful."
Then he turned and left.
As soon as Lu Fei left, Xu Feng thought for a moment and then immediately took Xiao Dan to the trading area.
Xu Feng couldn't think of any other way but to continue improving his strength.
Sure enough, the entire trading area was packed with people.
All the shops were under renovation, and there were stalls everywhere selling the fur, flesh, and blood of various mutated creatures, as well as a lot of second-hand goods for sale.
Xu Feng simply bought fifty catties of Shadow Hunter wolf meat, spending less than a third of the usual price, a thousand yuan.
Then, he led Xiao Dan toward the second-hand weapons stall.
Yesterday, while he was in the tunnel, he suddenly thought of something.
His throwing knife skills are not weak, and are even stronger than his swordsmanship.
The key problem is that his throwing knives are made of ordinary alloy materials, which are simply unable to pierce the fur of the beast-soldier-level mutated creature.
He had overlooked this matter before, so he must make up for it immediately.
"Boss, how much are these nine throwing knives?"
"One weapon costs three thousand."
"Three thousand? Brother, look around, it's all secondhand weapon sales."
Even if this throwing knife is made of C-grade alloy, it shouldn't be this expensive, right? Throwing knives aren't exactly common weapons.
Xu Feng shook his head and turned to leave.
"Hey, hey, hey, so tell me, what's the price?"
The boss hurriedly pulled Xu Feng aside and asked.
"One thousand," Xu Feng said without hesitation.
"Not for sale." The shop owner refused without even thinking.
Xu Feng shrugged and pulled Xiao Dan away.
Seeing how decisively Xu Feng left, the shopkeeper hesitated: "Hey, brother, think about it again, this price is too low."
"1200!" Xu Feng took two steps, then turned back and frowned.
"That's too low, two thousand, that's my lowest price."
The boss said with a pained expression.
"Fifteen thousand, fixed price. I'm too lazy to argue. You're not the only one in this market."
Xu Feng frowned.
"Dad, this is too expensive! That uncle only asked for 1700, and his throwing knife is even newer!"
Xiao Dan shook Xu Feng's arm and said.
"Fine, fine, it's fifteen hundred it is. Oh well, what a huge loss."
"Then give me six, that will make a total of nine thousand."
"Alright."
The shopkeeper quickly packed the items up and handed them to Xu Feng.
However, Xu Feng hesitated for a moment and looked at Xiao Dan: "Do you also think that one is better?"
The shopkeeper quickly said, "Here's what we'll do: I'll throw in a whetstone for you too!"
"Okay, okay." Xu Feng then paid the money.
After the father and daughter had walked away, Xu Feng laughed heartily, squatted down and kissed Xiao Dan: "Good girl, well done."
Xiao Dan grinned, showing her little tiger teeth, and happily took Xu Feng's arm.
The two strolled around, but unfortunately, Xu Feng's wallet was already empty.
Otherwise, he really wanted to buy a whole bunch more stuff.
That's so cheap!
On his way back, Xu Feng knocked on Liu Yu's door as they passed by.
crunch--
As Liu Yu opened the door with red eyes, Xu Feng quickly asked, "What happened? Did something happen?"
"Sigh." Liu Yu sighed, "My sister and niece couldn't escape the beast tide. The living area of the base was breached, and many people died."
I was lucky; after you finished speaking that night, I gathered several colleagues, and we all stayed together, which is how we managed to survive.
But my sister... Waaah—"
As Liu Yu spoke, she squatted down on the ground, tears streaming down her face.
Xiao Dan obediently hugged her and gently comforted her.
Xu Feng couldn't say anything about it, so he set aside a piece of meat and said, "I bought some meat. Eat something when you've recovered."
Life goes on, you have to live well for your sister.
Thanks.
After crying for a while, Liu Yu calmed down. After all, people who come to the dimensional world are mentally prepared for this.
"It's alright, we're all friends." Xu Feng waved his hand and took Xiao Dan home.
After returning home, the routine continued: cooking, eating, and practicing meditation.
The meat of the Shadow Wolf was completely different from what Xu Feng had imagined wolf meat to be; it was extremely tender and not dry at all.
He stir-fried shredded pork with green peppers, stewed a pot of soup, and finally fried some meatballs.
Although life was tough, he still wanted to give Xiaodan a better life experience.
After the father and daughter finished their meal, Xu Feng took out an ice cream from the refrigerator.
This stuff is more expensive than the meat of mutated creatures.
"Celebrating our survival!"
Xu Feng picked up the spoon and put it into Xiao Dan's mouth.
"Yay!"
Xiao Dan happily jumped around the room.
Then she snuggled into Xu Feng's arms, and the father and daughter took turns spooning the cool sweetness into small bites.
After eating about a third of the ice cream, Hsu Feng put it away and returned it to the refrigerator, saying, "You can eat it again in a couple of days when it's your birthday."
"Mmm." Xiao Dan stared longingly at the refrigerator, slurping her spoonful of food vigorously.
After everything was tidied up, Xu Feng returned to the backyard.
Continue your practice.
It's 10 p.m.
Sweating profusely, Xu Feng opened the panel and examined it closely.

"If I can keep taking these drugs, I'll be able to truly reach the warrior-level martial artist level in less than half a month."
Xu Feng couldn't help but sigh.
Spending money on in-game purchases is definitely addictive.
