Chapter 18 Chapter 18: He was confessed to by the female lead!
After Bai Cheng spent an hour tinkering, all of her clothes were finally upgraded.
"Now, I'm a big shot with a full set of golden legendary gear!"
She stood with her hands on her hips, puffing out her chest with an arrogant expression, looking extremely smug.
Looking down at my outfit, oh no, I can't even see my feet anymore.
Socks serve a similar function to other clothes, allowing for easy changing and cleaning, thus providing more options and choices.
"Wait, what am I thinking?!" Bai Cheng quickly shook his head.
With a thought, the black fishnet stockings on her legs suddenly transformed into a pair of ordinary white, seamless stockings.
As for her figure, it has become flat again.
"So it turns out it was just a case of exaggeration to fool customers. I thought it was the real deal," Bai Cheng said, pouting in disappointment.
This haul was quite substantial. Just upgrading the clothes gave me 4 points of freely distributable attributes, which, combined with the previous 2 points, makes a total of 6 points – it was practically free!
However, by upgrading her clothes, Bai Cheng also discovered another characteristic of Cheng Shu.
Although different individuals of the same item can still be upgraded, subsequent upgrades are obviously much more troublesome than the first one.
In other words, it wouldn't be as easy for Bai Cheng to farm attribute points as he thought.
She wasn't dwelling on the issue now; since she was in a hurry anyway, Bai Cheng decided to upgrade her pulley speed change mechanism.
As for the stone spear, she currently has the Blade of Certain Death, which is sufficient for now.
【Pulley speed change mechanism: 0/10】
The "10" here does not mean ten times, but rather 10km.
"Just as I suspected." Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow. "It seems we won't be able to complete the upgrade in the short term."
Without hesitation, she added all the attribute points she had just gained to her physique and strength.
Instantly, Bai Cheng felt an incredibly comfortable energy flowing through her limbs and bones, strengthening her body.
"Hmm, it's full now..."
But this feeling only lasted for a moment; at that moment, Bai Cheng was clear-headed and full of energy.
【Train Conductor: Bai Cheng】
【Level: Common Tier 1】
Experience points: 3%
【Strength: 9】
Physical Fitness: 8
【Spirit: 6】
【Talent: Clear Book】
"Now my strength and physique far surpass my mental abilities, so my three-dimensional abilities should already be considered above normal, right?"
After all, a human whose stats are close to the maximum is not considered a normal person.
After exercising for a while, Bai Cheng carefully observed his body and found that he had not gained weight or become a muscular man due to the increase in strength and physique.
Oh, she's a muscular woman.
She immediately felt relieved: "That's good, I like the contrast."
After turning off my personal information and looking up again, I saw that the black sludge in front of the track car had been completely burned, and the flames were gradually dying down.
With the obstacles in his path cleared, Bai Cheng immediately decided to continue his journey, as he never knew when that mass of matter might reappear.
The timber piled on the truck had already been packed into her backpack.
The railcar is almost empty now. Even though Bai Cheng is very tired, he still feels incredibly relaxed driving the vehicle thanks to the enhancement of 6 attribute points.
As soon as he started the vehicle, Bai Cheng saw several black objects, like stones, on both sides of the wheels by the light.
At this point, the object had entered the safety barrier, indicating that it was not only inanimate but also posed no danger whatsoever.
Bai Cheng picked it up out of curiosity, and a message popped up on the screen in front of him.
Coal +1!
"Coal?" Bai Cheng was somewhat surprised. This was an item that had fallen from the burning black substance.
This is a great thing! In the future, if steam engines are used to power vehicles, coal will be an essential fuel!
Bai Cheng carefully examined the ground and obtained a total of 5 pieces. After putting them all in the box, she continued on her way.
Perhaps it was because of the recent strengthening, but Bai Cheng, who was originally a little sleepy, was now full of energy.
In no time, she had filled a backpack with two hundred units of wood, and even the railcar was piled up with wood.
"No, there's no more room in the car. Let's replace some of the leather first." Bai Cheng sat cross-legged on the ground and opened the exchange.
At the same time, she lit a campfire and took the opportunity to have her dinner while the transaction was going on.
While leather is currently mainly used for upgrading trains, wood is used not only for upgrading but also for fuel and tool making.
Leather can only be obtained by killing wild animals, while wood is almost everywhere.
The two are not equally difficult to obtain, so leather is much more expensive than wood.
Bai Cheng looked through various transaction orders and roughly estimated the exchange ratio between the two: one to five.
This is the lowest price; it won't get any cheaper, it will only be more expensive.
“Fifty pieces of fine leather require 500 pieces of wood.” Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow. “That’s a huge workload.”
There were no orders on the trading interface for trading leather for timber; most people were still exchanging leather for water.
Bai Cheng immediately put his order on the shelves, then looked back at the supplies on the railcar and couldn't help but sigh.
"Alas, we cannot continue our journey until all this timber has been traded."
Looking at the remaining number of people in the channel: 8888, Bai Cheng was still a little worried about whether these people could consume his batch of wood.
One or two pieces of leather can be exchanged for ten or so pieces of wood; this is something that can be obtained with just a little effort.
"Would anyone really trade leather for timber...?" In truth, she herself wasn't sure.
But as soon as he finished speaking, all the wood in front of Bai Cheng disappeared, replaced by fifty irregular pieces of brown leather that smelled of blood.
"No?" Bai Cheng was stunned. "There really are people with a grudge..."
Trader Lin Qiuyue traded 250 of your timbers, and you received 50 leather!
"Lin Qiuyue?" Bai Cheng looked at the slightly chubby girl in the close-up photo and asked in confusion, "Isn't this the female lead who sold water before?"
Those who can obtain a water source at the start are either the male protagonist or the female protagonist, and the male protagonist has already appeared...
"Luckily, I rejected Tang Yan's advances back then, otherwise the female lead would have come after me," Bai Cheng trembled, a wave of relief washing over him. "I can't afford to offend her, I really can't afford to offend her..."
Lin Qiuyue: "How much timber do you have left? I need another 200 pieces."
At this moment, the other party also sent a message to Bai Cheng, directly offering to take over her subsequent orders.
Bai Cheng's face lit up with joy, and he immediately replied, "No problem, but I can only trade with you later."
Lin Qiuyue: "You want to chop it right now?"
Bai Cheng: "Hehe, how can we cut down trees at night? What I mean is, I need to make some preparations."
You think you can test whether I have any talent? No way!
But the other party's response seemed to be unrestrained.
Lin Qiuyue: "Perfect timing, I also need to exchange some fresh water for some leather to trade with you."
"She really is the female lead!" Bai Cheng thought to himself with certainty.
The next second, the other party suddenly added another sentence.
Lin Qiuyue: "By the way, I like you. Are we virgins?"
