Kingdom of Corrosion

Continuing to stroll down Exotic Treasure Street and looking at all the strange things, Lin Wu felt grateful he didn’t bring Shana. The items here were so varied that he could hardly restrain himself, not to mention Shana.

Electronic watch, buy. Electronic scale, buy. Campfire addon, buy. Complete set of 2040 football magazines, buy. Complete set of Gentry magazines from 2040, buy...

Overweight backpack? No problem, as long as it didn’t exceed triple the load, he could still carry it all home. In the end, as a prodigal son, Lin Wu spent 80 pistol bullets and bought a bunch of junk on Strange Objects Street. Then, still not satisfied, he used a gas package to indulge in a sauna and a construction materials package to enjoy a buffet hot pot. Finally, with a full belly and a heavy backpack, he teleported out of the market instance.

Luckily the two bases kept their finances separate, or Maya would’ve minced Lin Wu’s bones to boil soup for everyone in minutes.

After returning to the base, Lin Wu couldn’t be bothered to organize and dumped everything from the backpack into the warehouse, only taking out the items he needed. Shana, who had come out of the instance with him, took a liking to the 25 technical books Lin Wu bought. These books might seem dull and uninteresting to most people, but for Shana, they represented the culture and history of the 20th and 21st centuries.

As night fell, Lin Wu rummaged through the warehouse preparing for a late-night snack, but found that the remaining food supplies were insufficient. So, he called out to Shana, "Let’s go, take on a bounty hunting task."

Shana was somewhat surprised, "That’s unusually proactive of you."

"I’ve always been diligent, but you’ve been a bad influence on me with your laziness."

I lose if I argue with you! Shana lightly tapped Lin Wu’s back, packed her bag, and set off into the night with him.
