Chapter 23 The Lord’s Token

The heavy rain had lasted for ten days, meaning Lu Chenxi and Chenyue hadn’t found any treasure chests for ten days.

Perhaps things always swing back to the other extreme. Chenyue’s fishing activity hadn’t been going on for long when several treasure chests drifted by, one after another.

When the first treasure chest floated by, Chenyue, with her 5.2 vision advantage, quickly retracted her fishing hook from the water. Then, with another cast, the hook successfully hooked the chest. The whole process was smooth and effortless, without a single unnecessary movement.

Her reaction time and accuracy left Lu Chenxi no chance to intervene.

Lu Chenxi watched in amazement, feeling that Chenyue was getting more and more capable. At this rate, what would be left for her, the older sister, to do?

She couldn’t help but whine, “My little sister is so amazing. Poor me, this useless old sister, I’ll end up relying on my sister to support me, sniff sniff.”

Hearing this, Chenyue rolled her eyes secretly, internally scorning her sister for being so childish.

“Sister, are you being childish?” she said, her face full of disbelief at Lu Chenxi.

It was true, Chenyue had matured a lot. Since Lu Chenxi had caught a cold and had a fever, she realized that her sister wasn’t as strong as she had imagined.

It turned out that her sister was just an ordinary person, only 21 years old. She had always thought that her sister not only had to take care of her but also had to take care of her younger sister, who was much younger than her. Compared to her peers, it was not easy.

Therefore, Chenyue decided that from now on, she would work hard to grow up so that she could take care of herself and her sister.

Back to the treasure chests they had caught. After the first one was pulled up, the following ones were also successfully brought ashore smoothly.

Lu Chenxi saw the treasure chests they had caught this time and exclaimed in surprise, “There’s actually a blue treasure chest? I wonder what treasures we can get this time?”

As everyone knows, the higher the level of the treasure chest, the more precious and rare the items inside. Lu Chenxi had high expectations for this treasure chest.

“It’s simple, just open it and see,” Chenyue said, while opening the chest.

Now, Chenyue didn’t need her sister to tell her how to open the treasure chest anymore. It was her regular job anyway.

This time, they got three red chests, one yellow chest, and one blue chest.

The items they obtained were [10kg Rice x5, Instant Noodles x20, Cola x12, Orange Juice x12, Eggs x50, Axe Blueprint x1, Silver x3, Leader’s Token x1]

“Huh, what is this?” Lu Chenxi was curious about what good treasures the blue chest could contain, so she had been watching Chenyue open it.

When the blue chest opened, it only contained a token with an ancient appearance and a sun pattern. She picked it up curiously to examine it.

Lu Chenxi looked at the description of the Lord’s Token, her pupils dilated: “This… this…” she stammered. Forgive the country bumpkin, she had never seen such a high-level item. It was truly worthy of being a game world.

She had to admit, Lu Chenxi was incredibly tempted. Who hasn’t dreamed of being a powerful female protagonist in their youth? From now on, she, Lu Chenxi, would be a great female lord.

After the shock subsided, Lu Chenxi was immediately doused with a bucket of cold water. No matter how advanced this thing was, it was useless if she couldn’t use it.

Currently, Lu Chenxi and Chenyue were both only Level 1, while the Lord’s Token required Level 5 to use.

“Sigh! I don’t know how long it will take to reach Level 5,” Lu Chenxi sighed. The feeling of seeing something delicious but not being able to eat it was truly maddening.

“Sister, can I have a bottle of cola now?” Chenyue looked at Lu Chenxi with pleading eyes.

Lu Chenxi: “…”

She was instantly pulled back to reality. She had just said that her little sister had grown up and matured, but now she couldn’t resist the sight of cola.

“Go ahead, go ahead. But only half a bottle, remember to save half for me.”

With her thoughts interrupted by Chenyue, Lu Chenxi began to organize the items they had obtained this time. In terms of food, they had 50 kg of rice, 20 packs of instant noodles, and 50 eggs, which greatly replenished their food storage.

They also had 12 bottles of cola and 12 bottles of orange juice. If they drank them sparingly, they would last for a long time.

There was also an axe blueprint and 3 pieces of silver from the yellow treasure chest. Lu Chenxi picked them up and examined them carefully. When she first saw the blueprint, she thought it was useless. She didn’t think they would need an axe while living on the sea.

Until the description of the axe blueprint appeared before her eyes:

[

Item Name: Axe Blueprint

Item Level: 1

Effect: Can be used to craft a Level 1 axe. The crafted axe can be used to chop wood for cooking and to fight against Level 1 creatures.

Crafting Materials: Wood Plank x5, Iron Block x5, Bronze x3, Silver x1

]

Lu Chenxi immediately retracted her previous statement about the axe blueprint being useless. Who said it was useless? It was very useful.

This was the first time she had seen a blueprint with a level. The previous blueprints for wooden beds and wardrobes were just ordinary blueprints. She hadn’t expected that there were blueprints for crafting Level 1 weapons.

Lu Chenxi planned to craft several axes, keeping two for herself and trading the rest. She wasn’t expecting to make much profit from this.

She had learned from the chat channel that some unlucky players hadn’t obtained any weapons. If she could craft more weapons, she could also increase the survival rate of other players. It was something she could do to help everyone within her capabilities.

She shared her thoughts and asked for Chenyue’s opinion. After all, it was Chenyue who had opened the blueprint, and Lu Chenxi was very democratic in most matters.

Chenyue, of course, had no objections. She also wanted to help others, and she had her own ideas: “Sister, wouldn’t it be troublesome to collect all the materials one by one? Why don’t we just ask others to prepare all the axe crafting materials, and we’ll help make them?”

Lu Chenxi clapped her hands together, realizing the truth: “Yes, how could I have forgotten? That’s much more efficient.”

Then, she quickly posted an announcement in the chat channel.
