Chapter 329 Searching for the Master Architect
Lu Youyou yawned as she looked at the scrolling public chat.
It's getting late, time to rest.
With a secret expectation, she released the mobile base on the spot.
She waited in the garage for a long time, but the members didn't return.
It seems that besides the fact that the [gang] feature is unusable, the mobile base also can't gather everyone together.
She got out of the car, went to her room, quickly washed up, and went to bed to rest.
The night passed peacefully.
When Lu Youyou woke up again, she was awakened by her watch.
New personal tasks have been assigned.
[Task: Find the Master Builder and obtain his blessing for your virtual base, which will increase your defense by 100.]
Yesterday's task was to fight monsters, and we could also choose where to search for them based on their names, such as going to the swamp to find swamp snakes.
However, today's task is to find people, and their locations cannot be determined from their names.
That's difficult; who knows where the person might be waiting?
Fortunately, the task of finding the master architect wasn't timed, so at least there was plenty of time.
She asked about the location of the architect in the public chat, then went to wash up.
The watch kept vibrating during the process, but she ignored it, waiting to check everything together afterward.
After leaving the bathroom, Lu Youyou sat on the edge of the bed and checked her private messages.
Besides buying insecticide paste, you should also ask her to lower the price of the insecticide paste.
Of all the messages, not one provided information about the master architect.
Lu Youyou had no choice but to send another message on the public chat, this time using the insect-killing elixir as bait.
[Lu Youyou: The Real News of Trading 200ml of Insect-Killing Eliminator for a Master Architect.]
Now, those people stopped pretending to ignore it.
Some say they've seen it on a cliff edge, some say they've seen it on a grassland, and others say they've seen a master architect fall into a swamp.
The information they shared on the public chat was completely inconsistent. When Lu Youyou tried to exchange information with each of them through Xiao Lu's trading channels, they refused to trade no matter what.
Even if Lu Youyou were a fool, she could tell that those people were lying to her.
Lu Youyou didn't believe that those people wouldn't tell her the truth, simply because she killed the person who spoke ill of her.
Human nature has two sides, especially when everyone is a competitor.
Providing her with accurate information means helping her move closer to success.
Who doesn't want a higher ranking?
Naturally, no one wanted to tell her.
"Ugh."
Lu Youyou sighed, put away the base, and let the navigation drive around, preparing to try her luck.
suddenly.
hum~
Lu Youyou was somewhat surprised to see who sent the message.
Wang Chenqian removed her from the blacklist.
[Wang Chenxi: Go look for her by the swamp. I just passed by there and saw a monster NPC trapped in it. When she called for my help, she seemed to say she was some kind of master, but I'm not sure if she was a master builder.]
Lu Youyou sent a trade request to Wang Chenqian, offering to exchange her message for the insect-killing elixir.
If what she said is true, Xiaolu will naturally determine that the transaction was successful.
However, to everyone's surprise, Lu Youyou was rejected.
A message quickly popped up at the top of the screen.
[Wang Chenqian: We're on the same team, helping you is helping myself, you don't need to give me anything.]
Lu Youyou sent Wang Chenqian a "thank you" message, and then saw the familiar red exclamation mark again.
Wang Chenqian blocked her again.
How disgusting must I be to myself?
Lu Youyou felt like crying but couldn't, yet she also found it somewhat amusing.
"Navigate to the swamp."
【OK. 】
It's about an hour's drive from here to the swamp, so Lu Youyou still has time to do her own thing.
At 3 PM today, Da Rui's Lucky Copy will successfully cool down.
With Gu Jingchen dead, she didn't know whose supplies to copy for the time being.
Therefore, you need to check the public chat and leaderboards to see who is the strongest, so that the copied content won't be too weak either.
Opening the leaderboard, my guild is firmly in first place, but my shop's ranking has fallen out of the top three.
Apart from the insect-killing elixir, nothing else she put in the shop was bought.
If your own sales growth is slow while others' sales growth is fast, won't your ranking drop?
The top-ranked shop is Jiang Aiyuan.
Lu Youyou opened Jiang Aiyuan's personal shop and found that her best-selling item was an electric insect-repellent net.
Once plugged in, the net will electrocute any mosquitoes that get close, and the current is harmless to humans and other materials.
10000 gold coins can buy 1 square meter of electric insect-proof netting, and the number of buyers has reached six figures.
No wonder Jiang Aiyuan's shop ranks so high.
Lu Youyou was curious whether the electric insect-repellent net really worked, so she ordered 1 square meter to try it out.
When plugged in, the white insect-proof netting becomes shimmering and colorful.
Once the color completely covers the entire net, all the colors disappear, and it becomes an ordinary white again.
Lu Youyou took out the dead bug that the Mouse King had given her from her backpack and put it on the electric insect-repelling net.
"Zi-"
A sizzling sound rang out, and the dead insect transformed into a dark and shriveled worm.
The insect shrank in size and got stuck in the mesh. Lu Youyou had to use discarded chopsticks to crush the insect and remove it.
Therefore, if you really want to put the electric insect net outside the car to prevent insects, you still need to get out of the car regularly to clean the mesh.
It might be troublesome for others, as they need protective clothing and insecticides to ensure they can safely get off the vehicle and clean the mesh.
But for Lu Youyou, all she had to do was wear insect-proof earrings, and all the insects would stay away. She could then go down and clean the mesh without worrying about insects attacking her.
Having confirmed the effectiveness of the electric insect-proof netting, Lu Youyou didn't rush to buy more; she planned to try her luck in the afternoon.
Since Jiang Aiyuan was able to sell so many copies, she must have the production blueprints in her possession.
If I'm lucky this afternoon, it would be great if I could copy the blueprints.
If you can't replicate it, it's not too late to buy an electric insect-proof net.
After looking at the electric insect-proof netting, Lu Youyou continued to swipe the screen to look at other items in Jiang Aiyuan's shop.
A message pop-up suddenly appeared at the top of the screen, containing information about a chick.
She only glanced at it before accidentally clicking on it, and doesn't know what it said.
It wasn't until the page changed and she saw the long-tailed eggs she had previously put in the animal breeding cage hatch into chicks that Lu Youyou suddenly realized what had happened.
Not only did the long-tailed eggs that were previously laid hatch, but Xiao Hua laid three more long-tailed eggs, all of which were fertilized.
Lu Youyou was very happy and put some bamboo worms into the pot to improve Xiao Hua's diet, hoping that it would continue to lay more long-tailed eggs.
After closing the breeding cage page, Lu Youyou looked up and stretched her neck, discovering that she could now see the dark swamp ahead.
A few seconds later, the navigation system announced the directions.
[Destination reached, navigation will automatically stop.]
"No need for now, just slowly circle around the swamp."
There were no master builders who had fallen into the swamp ahead, so Lu Youyou had no choice but to give this order.
