บท 3: CHAPTER 2 PART I
Time waits for no one.
Su Han quickly started making her move. She planned on searching for the closest supermarket to her, then spend all of her money—— after 9, money would no longer have its current purchasing power!
She didn't know if it was designed to be like that by the system or something else, however, after walking for less than two minutes, she saw a 24hrs supermarket.
Su Han immediately went inside, hoping to be able to use 1000 over bay to buy more supplies.
Stopping beside a shelf in the supermarket, she found that in the current situation, money was still worth quite a lot. A bottle of mineral water was 2 bay and a bar of soap 5 bay. 1000 bay was still able to buy lots of things.
Su Han felt slight pity. If only she exchanged for more currency. however, quickly enough, she regained her composure—— it's not like she's a god, how could she predict everything correctly.
Su Han took a walk around the supermarket and found out that, to her great surprise, that other than soap, towels, toothpaste, facial cleanser, shampoos, even air freshener, perfumes and toothbrushes were able to raise her cleanliness attribute. It's just that they were all disposables, disappearing after a single-use.
As for food, chocolate, multicoloured candy, biscuits, cake and instant noodles too could raise her satiety attribute.
As the spaces in her personal storage space could only store 100 of the same object, Su Han didn't hesitate to grab 90 bars of soap and 90 bottles of mineral water and then went to the cashier.
There weren't many people queuing and it was quickly Su Han's turn to pay.
The bars of soap were 450 bay, and the mineral water 180 bay. The total was 630 bay. The only thing wrong was the cashier's expression—— why hoard so many bars of soap and mineral water? Was this person crazy?
Su Han didn't explain, leaving right after she paid.
Just as she arrived at the supermarket entrance, about 30 people rushed into the supermarket together.
A thought surfaced in Su Han's mind. "A wave of players are currently rushing straight towards the supermarket."
She purposely moved to the side, only looking for a hidden corner to place all her soap and mineral water after they left.
"Late once, late forever." Su Han softly said, "Were I late that one step in the beginning, what I can select in the Shopping Centre would become extremely limited. If I waste time in the Shopping Centre, then, after entering the game I can only choose to fight with others for the supplies, then waste even more time when queuing up."
What's even unluckier was, some players might not even be able to get any supplies. Su Han remembered that she bought 90 bars if soap just now, nearly cleaning out the shelves. Who knew if there's any stock left to make up for it.
There was a bespectacled young lady near her who took 100 packs of instant noodles off the shelves without even batting a lash.
Shaking her head, Su Han headed towards the next stop—— the pharmacist.
The moment she stepped into the store, she saw the young shop assistant lady watching gape-jawed at the scene of over a dozen customers sweeping supplies off the shelves. Su Han's heart squeezes she hurriedly entered the great shelf-sweeping army.
Finally, her achievements were as stated below: 5 strips of medical bandages and 5 boxes of anti-inflammatory drugs, costing a total of 170 bay.
Anti-inflammatory drug: After using it, energy level +20, 'infected' state disappears.
It wasn't that she arrived too late and all the supplies had been swept away by the others, but because Su Han couldn't afford it. Plus, she needed cash to buy other objects so she couldn't spend it all in one go.
Glancing regretfully back at the shelves, Su Han left unwillingly. Before she left, she even heard the NOC shop assistant mumble, "If not for the fact that they're paying, I'd have thought that they were here to rob the sop…"
Looking at the time, Su Han found that it was already 8:38, yet the location of the shop she was looking for just had to be unknown. With no other choice left, she could only use the stupidest idea; start searching for it shop by shop.
At 8:57, after 20 minutes of searching, she finally found her target—— a general store!
Catapults were 30 bay a piece and metal beads were 2 bay a bag. One bag contained 100 beads.
Su Han bought 2 catapults and used the rest of the money on metal beads. Instantly, she finished spending the remaining 200 bay.
"What do you want so many metal beads for?" The boss of the general store didn't understand.
Su Han smiled. She replied, "Hunting."
The general store boss immediately stopped speaking. He knew that some customers liked using catapults to hunt birds. It's just that he didn't think this young and weak-looking lady in front of him would have that sort of hobby too.
"Goodbye." Su Han knew that the IQ of NPCs in VR games were pretty high. The way they thought and behaved was no different from ordinary humans, thus she greeted him on the way out.
The moment she stepped out of the general store, the system's robotic voice just so happened to sound out, "It's 9am, the game officially starts. On the first day, goods inflation goes up by 50%."
Right after the system finished its announcement, Su Han found that there was something extra in her personal storage space. After examining it, she found that it was a bottle of milk and a piece of black bread."
Milk: 250ml, after using it satiety +15
Black bread: After using it satiety+15
Looking ta her satiety attribute, Su Han found that it was still dark green. She didn't have to consume any food to replenish her energy. And so, she just allowed the milk and black bread to lie quietly in her space.
Leisurely walking to the park opposite the grand marketplace, sitting on the bench, Su Han was finally able to sort out her thoughts.
The supposed pernicious goods inflation just meant that the purchasing power of currency falls greatly. For example, money that could originally be able to buy a whole pig starts to only be able to buy half a pig. And then it can only buy a chicken, a chicken drum, and finally becomes nothing but scrap paper.
Thus the earlier one spends their current, the more things they can buy.
After finally managing to spend all of her money before the inflation starts, Su Han didn't know what to do afterwards either.
Suddenly, she froze, recalling something. "When I went out of the supermarket, all those I've met should be players. The people who've just received the news and are hurrying there now should be NPC. But, when I look at them, why am I seeing the same Information?"
Like right now, there was a suit-wearing man around his thirties hurrying towards the supermarket. When she looked at him, what she saw was, "Satiety: 85%, cleanliness: 70%, energy 90%. State: Fine."
Nearby, a little girl was being carried in her parent's bosom. When she focused her gaze on them, she saw, "Satiety: 80%, cleanliness: 85%, energy 70%. State: average, currently having a fever."
