Survival For All: I, Aura Creator

Chapter 8: Blueprint for Simple Bow Making (Seeking Collection!)

The 1,200 pieces of wood he put on the shelf have already received bids from many people.

However, most of the bids were made with the intention of picking up bargains, which Ning Ze directly ignored and selected some from them.

In the end, he finalized the sale of five sets of wood:

Set 1: Salt * 100g.

Set 2: Drinking water * 600ml.

Set 3: Worn-out pickaxe.

Set 4: Drinking water * 1000ml.

Set 5: Meat * 1000g (inedible), five-spice powder * 10g.

Most of the bids were for some boxed goods, which were in high demand in the Exchange. If it were before, 200 pieces of wood definitely couldn't be exchanged for these boxed goods.

However, with the arrival of night, many people realized the importance of upgrading their small wooden houses, so now wood has become the hottest commodity in the Exchange.

For most people, cutting down 2,000 trees in three days is a challenge, let alone for some physically weak women. If they don't trade some wood from others, they probably won't be able to cut so much wood in five days.

Ning Ze didn't pay too much attention to the gains and losses of the items. For example, the 600ml of drinking water in the second set was exchanged with a player in the swamp area. Theoretically, Ning Ze could completely exchange for more resources with other people.

Hopefully, this amount of wood can help him.

With a large supply of resources, Ning Ze felt slightly less urgency. No matter how much drinking water he has, it's still not enough. Even though he has over 3000ml now, he can't drink it all in a few days without being frugal.

However, these are completed trades. The price of the last trade surprised Ning Ze.

Set 6: Blueprint for Simple Bow Making (can be made three times).

This is the first time he has seen a blueprint like this in the Exchange.

If it weren't for this person offering this item, Ning Ze might have thought that blueprints like this didn't exist at all.

However, the other party didn't trade directly, but also set a delay. It seems that they want to squeeze more wood out of Ning Ze.

QJE-1919: "Hello, I am the buyer who offered the price for the 'Blueprint for Simple Bow Making', but I don't think the value of 200 pieces of wood meets my expectations. I hope the seller can reconsider the price."

Ning Ze didn't have much emotional fluctuation when he saw this message. He really didn't know the true value of a blueprint.

For the current stage, a simple bow is both useful and useless for people. Those who need it will naturally use it. Even if the damage is low and can't cause damage to large animals or monsters, it's still fine for hunting small animals.

Moreover, Ning Ze really needs a ranged weapon now, even if the damage is low, it doesn't matter.

NZ-3534: "How much wood do you think is appropriate?"

QJE-1919: "At least 800 pieces of wood."

After about half a minute, the other party replied.

NZ-3534: "Too much. Your blueprint can only be made three times at most, and it's just a simple bow. You should have encountered monsters tonight, and you should understand that this crude bow and arrow can't be used in combat. I can offer at most 400 pieces of wood, and I don't have that many in my backpack now. I'll need until tomorrow to collect that much."

QJE-1919: "Then I'll lower it a bit, 600 pieces of wood. Your offer of 400 pieces of wood is really too low."

QJE-1919: "And I opened four boxes today. If this transaction goes smoothly, I think we will have the opportunity to trade again."

Ning Ze was stunned.

He only opened one box during the day, and the other party actually opened four?

And hooked... and? Are you kidding me... can't stand it...

Truly, it's a drought and a flood, a poor dog.

It's not his fault.

Ning Ze sighed inwardly and rubbed his throbbing temples. He never expected that one day he would be taken advantage of, this feeling is disgusting.

However, the other party's intention also indicated that they wanted to trade with him multiple times.

NZ-3534: "I'll take a little loss, 500 pieces of wood. I have nothing else here, just a lot of wood, cut fast. I don't have other supplies, but as long as you can provide what I want, wood is not a problem."

After sending this message, the other party fell silent.

After two full minutes, this transaction finally came to a successful conclusion.

Five hundred pieces of wood for a blueprint for simple bow making, although it only has three manufacturing opportunities, it is indeed the ranged weapon he urgently needs, very suitable for his "Blood River" skill.

QJE-1919 also sent a friend request, and Ning Ze agreed after some thought.

QJR-1919: "Let's get to know each other again. My name is Qin Jiuer, I hope we can continue to cooperate in the future!"

NZ-3534: "I'll have enough wood early tomorrow morning. Remember to trade the blueprint in time."

After sending this message, Ning Ze closed the Heavenly World chat.

He still has 306 Origin Value points, and can still create three Auras.

After some thought, Ning Ze determined the direction of the first Aura creation:

[Never Go Mad: Rationality value will never decrease.]

[Invest Origin Value: 100; Success rate: 1%.]

[Psychologist: Doubles the speed of rationality value recovery.]

[Invest Origin Value: 100; Success rate: 100%.]

[I'm Super Rational: Doubles the upper limit of rationality value.]

[Invest Origin Value: 100; Success rate: 34%.]

The attempt to create "Never Go Mad" tested the importance of rationality value, and Ning Ze was surprised that with just 100 Origin Value points, there was a 1% chance of success.

It seems that there are still many ways to recover rationality value that he has yet to understand.

Since that's the case, he temporarily gave up on this Aura.

As long as "Golden Touch" remains stable, Ning Ze probably won't eat foods that lower his rationality value in his lifetime, and even if he does, it will be in small amounts.

Looking at it this way, it seems unnecessary to double the rationality value with "Never Go Mad."

Instead...

The success rate of "Psychologist" with 100 Origin Value points is actually 100%!?

Clearly, there is still room for manipulation.

After continuous attempts, the recovery speed of "Psychologist" was increased from 1x to 2.8x, with a high success rate of 66%! All it took was 100 Origin Value points!

Charge!!!

[Creation Successful!]

[Psychologist (Ⅰ)]: Doubles the speed of rationality value recovery.

With 206 Origin Value points remaining, Ning Ze pondered for a while and decided not to continue creating for now.

He took out a few pieces of wood from his backpack and set up a fire in the small wooden house.

The small wooden house is in a safe period, so there is no need to worry about setting it on fire.

A piece of inedible sleepy rabbit meat was skewered and placed on the flames.

Half an hour later, the sleepy rabbit meat was sizzling with oil, sprinkled with a little salt, and Ning Ze didn't hesitate to put the over 500g of sleepy rabbit meat into his mouth.

After chewing for a while, the sleepy rabbit meat finally went into his stomach.

Rationality value is decreasing!

Ning Ze felt as if he had been hit on the head with a hammer at that moment, and then some inexplicable thoughts came to his mind... Hippolytus, why is your hook on your face?

"..."

Is this the illusion after lowering the rationality value?

At that moment, Ning Ze vaguely felt as if there were crawling creatures in the void... Strange?

"This is too much of a decrease in rationality value. I wonder how others can eat this kind of meat."

Ning Ze chose to lie down on the bed for a while.

According to the information in the chat channel, it usually takes three hours for the rationality value to recover from eating a pound of meat.

With his rationality value recovery speed being 3.8 times that of others, close to four times, he should be able to recover within an hour.

Could someone kindly give me a vote of recommendation... sob, sob, sob
