That’s right, this 312-point luck had been given to her by Wei Huo after he had interfered. This luck had been obtained after killing two animals and taking their corpses to the camp.

According to the rules, the hunting team led by Teacher Zhang had paid the price. However, after they handed the corpses to the kitchen, the butcher had to pay Teacher Zhang and the others in luck. When the chef cooked the meat with vegetables, the person who ate the meat would give luck to the chef.

This resembled the flow of money. That’s right, luck was just like money. It also had the ability to measure the value of an item.

At that moment, Zhang Yuwen had over 500 points of luck. This was strong luck for an ordinary person. This strong luck would bring disaster to her, but as long as she survived it, the strong luck would belong to her. However, if she did not pass the test, she would lose a lot of things. If someone helped her, her luck would be divided.

She would not lose her luck if Wei Huo, who had practiced the ‘Finger’ Skill, helped her.

Wei Huo paid a unit of silver and obtained the right to stay in the shelter for three days. He stayed in a small house with electricity. He then opened the book ‘Finger’. Thanks to the translation of System Number Two, he could already understand the book.

“The book Father left me is not simple! It’s not a book for the fish in the pond. It’s for the fisher. It’s not for the chess pieces but for the players. It’s not simple.”

The next day, Wei Huo found Mr. Li, who was a middle-aged man wearing glasses. He was holding a book in his hand and was guarding the warehouse door. He was also setting up a small wooden table with an account book on it. When he saw Wei Huo, he said, “Are you Mr. Wei Huo? Brother Liu told me to wait for you. I didn’t expect you to come the next day.”

Wei Huo was surprised that someone had said his name correctly. However, as an artificial being, he naturally knew his real name. He walked over and asked, “What’s in your camp?”

Mr. Li took out a form. “This is the inventory warehouse. Please take a look.”

Wei Huo was confused by Mr. Li’s reaction. He used the Luck Viewing Skill to observe the middle-aged man and realized that his luck was stronger than normal people’s.

Wei Huo had two goals for coming to the shelter. One was to complete the quest, and the other was to find minerals buried deep in the ground. He had observed them yesterday. Half of the area had been buried underground due to the collapse of the tunnel and stairs.

He had already released the Gold-Eater yesterday and asked it to dig underground for ores while he came to trade with Mr. Li. That was why Wei Huo did not care much about any special goods in the shelter. In the inventory, Wei Huo saw three kilograms of Mithril. It was worth one pound of silver, which was 10 times more than bronze was worth!

“10 pounds of bronze for one pound of Mithril. Do you want to exchange it?” Wei Huo asked.

Mr. Li said, “This Mithril was brought by Brother Liu from the marginalized alliance. If possible, we would like to exchange it for some food. After all, bronze is not very useful to us.”

Wei Huo nodded. “Sure. I’ll be out hunting for the next three days. I’ll trade with you guys for Mithril bit by bit.”

He would make a killing by exchanging food for Mithril!

Wei Huo arrived at the highest floor of the shelter. He could only leave through the three entrances of the shelter. There had originally been a back door, but it had been blocked due to the collapse.

At that moment, a system notification popped up. “High-temperature warning: heat wave attack. A heat wave will attack the Dragon-Soaring Continent in 11 hours. The current temperature is 39°C.”

Heat wave?

It was the 43rd day of spring. He had not expected a heat wave to come so quickly.
