"Personal risk ranking?"

"Region number and regional risk value sum ranking?"

"Will there be an invasion by cave creatures at the bottom of the regional ranking?"

"And... after the area is numbered, hunters will appear?"

After reading the three system prompts that suddenly popped up on the panel, Shen Yiming's eyes brightened slightly.

Perhaps after reading these three system prompts, most people in the cave may feel panic, worry and other emotions in their hearts.

But Shen Yiming was calm in his heart, and even vaguely expected.

In his opinion, this cave is like a survival game.

In this survival game, all he has to do is to improve his strength as much as possible and survive.

He retracted the panel, then walked to the manufacturing bench in the wooden house and stood there, looking at it intently:

[Manufacture bench: After learning the blueprint, you can use the manufacturing bench to manufacture the items on the blueprint. It takes time to use the manufacturing bench. The specific time changes with the quality of the item, and the material consumption is halved. 】

[Currently learned blueprints: water-making device for survivors, dagger, crossbow, crossbow arrows, coagulant, potion making table, top, trousers, toothbrush.]

[Note: The potion making table is an ancillary building of the palace and cannot be constructed using the manufacturing table.]

"The crossbow still needs 6 units of spider silk. The materials for the crossbow are enough. Let's trade 6 spider silk first, and then try this manufacturing station."

With thoughts flashing through his mind, Shen Yiming called out the panel and entered [Transaction].

【Trade】There are all kinds of strange things listed for sale.

There are socks that have only been worn once, Bluetooth headsets with only the right ear left, and brand new unopened spicy strips...

Shen Yiming ignored these strange but useless things and entered the filtering keyword [Spider Silk].

Suddenly, there were only six sellers left on the [Transaction] page.

He looked at the transaction prices set by these six sellers one by one, and the fifth seller attracted his attention.

[Seller: Jia Lidun]

[Trading Item: Spider Silk.]

【Requirement:150ml.】

【Inventory: 10.】

[Note 1: Has anyone encountered a cave creature that looks like an armored crocodile? Could you please tell me how to deal with it? 】

[Note 2: The transaction needs to initiate a transaction request to the seller.]

…

"It looks like a crocodile wearing armor. This should be a rock-armored crocodile.

But why didn’t he just say Rock Armor Crocodile? Doesn’t he know that thing is called Rock Armor Crocodile?”

Shen Yiming's heart moved and he realized something was wrong.

"But why can those people on the World Channel call out the name of Earth Split Dragon Meat?

Yes, it should be the information they saw from the transaction that I put the Earth Split Dragon Meat in.

Maybe, I can take advantage of this information gap and try to sell information to the other party."

Thinking of this, Shen Yiming immediately sent a transaction request to the seller named Jia Lidun.

[System prompt: You initiate a transaction request to Jia Lidun. Note: The name of that thing is Rock Armor Crocodile.]

The other party seemed to be waiting impatiently and quickly agreed to the request.

[System prompt: The other party agrees to the transaction request.]

[System prompt: Transaction successful, water-150ml. Spider silk +1.]

Then, the other party sent a private message.

[Jia Lidun]: "That Boss Shen who is at the top of the kill list?!"

[Shen Yiming]: "It's me."

The other party did not reply to the message immediately and seemed to go to confirm whether the avatar was the same person.

After a few seconds...

[Jia Lidun]: "How do you know the name of that thing is Rock Armor Crocodile?!"

Shen Yiming looked at the other person's still probing words, smiled casually, and replied with three words:

[Shen Yiming]: "I have killed."

The other party paused for a moment, and after a few seconds he replied:

[Jia Lidun]: "Then how should I believe that the boss didn't lie to me?"

[Shen Yiming]: "You can choose not to believe it and not be forced. Besides, do I need to lie to you?"

The other party paused again, seeming to be thinking about it.

A few seconds later:

[Jia Lidun]: "This... can the boss tell me the information about the rock-armored crocodile?"

[Shen Yiming]: "Yes, but there is a fee."

[Jia Lidun]: "...Yes, what is the specific price?"

[Shen Yiming]: "The basic information is 9 units of spider silk. If you want to know the weaknesses of the rock-armored crocodile, you have to pay more."

The other party paused again.

[Jia Lidun]: "...Okay, the boss can just tell me how much to add."

[Shen Yiming]: "4 units of iron, 6 units of copper, and 10 units of wood."

[Jia Lidun]: "This is too expensive. Can you make it a little cheaper? Or you can wait until I finish killing you before giving it to you."

[Shen Yiming]: "Don't be too expensive. What you get from killing the rock-armored crocodile will definitely far exceed the basic materials you paid for it.

In addition, if you trust me, you can pay 9 units of spider silk as a deposit first, and if you successfully kill me, you can pay the remaining materials."

[Jia Lidun]: "Boss, aren't you afraid that I won't pay for the remaining materials after I successfully kill you?"

[Shen Yiming]: "If you do this, I won't have any real losses. At most, I will be cheated. But if you run away, you will be blacklisted by me."

[Jia Lidun]: "...Okay, boss, hang up 1 unit of wood and I'll trade the spider silk and iron to you."

[Shen Yiming]: "Okay."

After sending this message, Shen Yiming entered [Transaction] and placed a unit of wood:

[Seller: Shen Yiming]

[Trading item: 1 unit of wood.]

[Requirements: 9 units of spider silk.]

[Remarks: None.]

Almost as soon as Shen Yiming hung up, the other party traded 9 units of spider silk.

[System prompt: Spider silk +9.]

Shen Yiming looked at the nine spider silks that had arrived, and he sent the information about the rock-armored crocodile:

[Shen Yiming]: "Happy transaction, I wish you a smooth kill. The following is information about the rock-armored crocodile..."

[Jia Lidun]: "Thank you, boss. If I can successfully kill you, I will contact you as soon as possible and trade the materials to you."

…

"Now that the spider silk has been collected, it's time to try using the manufacturing bench to make crossbows and crossbow arrows."

Exiting the [Private Chat] channel, Shen Yiming reached out and clicked on the icons of crossbows and crossbow arrows on the manufacturing platform.

Materials in the palace are automatically deducted.

[System prompt: Copper -1.5, Iron -3, Spider Silk -3, Soul Crystal -1.]

[System prompt: The crossbow is being manufactured, and the remaining manufacturing time is 30m.]

[System prompt: Iron-0.5, Wood-1.]??5

[System prompt: Crossbow arrows are being manufactured, remaining manufacturing time: 30m. (five pieces)]

"So, soul crystals are different from basic materials. Even if you use a manufacturing station that consumes half the material, you still have to spend one.

Also, is this 0.5 unit of material consumption serious?"
