Chapter 203: Chapter 138 Decision

The first activity around the dining table was bragging. Bragging had to have an order, and since Lin Wu always topped the Shadow heroes, he had to brag first. But after Lin Wu had his turn, there was no chance for anyone else. Therefore, Shana took the lead, "I exchanged for 3 Star Agility, a set of exclusive, consumption-free cosmetics, and a Nuclear Portable Player that can play all music before the year 2044."

Everyone applauded, while Lin Wu was confused, "What?"

"What what?" everyone asked in return.

Lin Wu said, "You can exchange points like that? I only had three options." He felt cheated.

Shana said, "There are hundreds of options, and the points required for each vary, I had accumulated 190 points."

Lin Wu was especially curious, "Maya?"

Maya answered, "320 points, for one Outpost Card. One Land Value Increase Card, which can merge two small squares into one big square or split one big square into two small ones." She didn’t choose a single personal item, only treasures for the development of the base.

Everyone clapped again. Stone asked, "Didn’t you get something for yourself?"

Maya replied, "I don’t need anything."

Shana covered her face, "I’ve been outdone." Both Deputy Commanders, yet why was her awareness so low?

Lin Wu comforted her, "Your points wouldn’t have bought that anyway."

Angered, Shana motioned Lin Wu to come closer and lightly tapped his head, her smile returning to her face.

Little Knife said, "I had 210 points, added 3 Star Physical Strength, got a pink dress with matching earrings and necklace..."

Lin Wu was surprised, and Little Knife, sensing his reaction, pointed a finger, "Shut up." She knew what he was about to say.

Little Knife continued, "I also took a Swiss Army knife with a Deadly Backstab effect, which has the same effect when stabbing from the front as from the back. It’s for a certain bad person."

Little Knife took out a dagger and handed it to Lin Wu, who stood up to receive it and hugged Little Knife after walking past a few seats, "I’m really moved."

Little Knife said, "As long as you know. Lastly, I exchanged for a Heavy-duty King Kong Shovel, weighing 25 kilograms, with a 25% chance of a fatal blow on frontal assault." She glanced at Snow Egg, "It’s in the warehouse, go get it yourself."

Snow Egg’s eyes lit up, "Really?"

Little Knife’s face remained stoic, "Really."

Lin Wu was puzzled, "You..."

With urgency, Little Knife signaled Lin Wu, "You shut up, just shut it."

"Oh," everyone looked at each other, and collectively went quiet.

Snow Egg, sharing the wealth, had an M16. Shadow Squad had been stationed at the second assembly point for a full five days, earning a substantial amount of points. Snow Egg said, "I got the Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter skins for young girls, a set of cosmetics, and four pairs of women’s shoes..."

Su Shi teased, "How are you going to divide those among three women?"

Horse Soul raised his hand, "I will reluctantly take a set."

Snow Egg laughed without saying a word and gave Horse Soul a slap on the back of his head, "What about you?"

Horse Soul said, "A 5-pack of Bluetooth interphones, One Blunt Weapon Mastery Skill Book that increases the chance of stunning and attack speed, 20 recipes, and 3 Star Physical Strength."

After Horse Soul finished speaking, Snow Egg remembered something and apologetically said to Maya, "I died. My Physical Strength is now six and a half stars, but I’ll train back up fast." He had insisted on an occupant of the fire station: one player with 11 Star Physical Strength.

Maya said, "I died too, we all did, it’s normal. We couldn’t hold out on the last day."

Shana looked at Lin Wu, "It seems like he didn’t die." She could tell from his expression.

Lin Wu snapped his fingers, and the Waste City survivor’s entry appeared.

Stone asked, "Were you hiding in a place even missiles couldn’t reach?"

Little Knife followed, "How many points did you get?"

Lin Wu, contemptuously eyeing Stone, answered Little Knife, "590, first place. I completed 94 missions."

"94 missions?" Everyone was incredibly shocked. They knew Lin Wu was formidable, but the gap was too big.

Lin Wu then asked, "Didn’t you guys get tasks involving the green positioning devices?"

Everyone shook their heads. Shana asked, "What reward did you choose?"

Lin Wu replied, "An increase in a primary attribute."

Shana asked, "Which primary attribute?"

Lin Wu’s hand moved like lightning, reaching out and then pulling back with two strands of hair in his grasp. The next second, Shana jumped in pain, flailing her arms and slapping Lin Wu. That bastard, it was bad enough that he plucked hair, but he had to pluck the soft, downy hair by her ears, at the tips, the kind that’s half hair, half fuzz.

Lin Wu held his head with one hand and tossed a painkiller into Shana’s mouth with the other. Choking, she bolted down a mouthful of mineral water to swallow it.

Seeing Shana ready to attack again, Lin Wu quickly changed the subject, "I don’t think the rewards are very good, Dawn offered me three to choose from."

After Lin Wu’s explanation, everyone was unclear whether the reward was good or not, but it must be, otherwise it wouldn’t be worth 590 points. Stone changed the subject, and the crowd continued their lively chatter, toasting and drinking. Stone had changed the subject because he realized something. Lin Wu had survived, Maya didn’t know Lin Wu had made it to the end, and she also didn’t know Lin Wu had completed 94 missions.

After the third round of drinks, Stone stood up and said, "Qin, let’s inspect the fields and have a small meeting. Everyone, eat and drink to your heart’s content."

...

Sitting on the throne in the field, Stone cut to the chase, "What happened between you and Lin Wu?"

Maya didn’t hide anything and recounted the whole event.

After hearing everything, Stone felt a headache, "You touched his sore spot. The reason he’s willing to contribute to the community is that he feels a sense of achievement, not because he loves the community. He will believe you betrayed your friendship."

Shana somewhat disagreed, "Lin Wu is not that petty and extreme."

Stone said, "I’m talking about friendship. We’ll still be friends in the future, but it will be hard for you two to be close friends again. Do you understand what I mean?"
