Free Fresh Water
Following Grimm’s order, the mechanical claw began to collect fresh water portion by portion.
[ Captured: fresh water x 1! ]
[ Fresh water x 1 obtained a 100-fold increase, fresh water x 100! ]
…
Watching the fresh water being captured by the mechanical claw portion by portion, Grimm quickly hung up the fresh water to the exchange center.
Now, from the price of the trading center, one portion of fresh water that could be drunk could be sold for four to five portions of basic materials. If he sold three portions, there would definitely be a large number of players fighting to buy it.
Thinking of this, Grimm put up the contents of the trade.
[ Fresh water x 1 trades common alloy x 3! ]
…
Grimm made a hundred copies of the same trade in one go. He even deliberately opened the communication channel and shouted to all the players.
[ Those who need fresh water go to the trading center. Fresh water that can be drunk directly can be bought with only 3 pieces of ordinary alloy! ]
Seeing this message, the communication channel exploded.
[ F * ck? Conscience! ]
[ This fresh water is so cheap! ]
[ No way, fresh water is so scarce now. How can it be so cheap? ]
Some people began to doubt.
[ Don’t be deceived. That’s definitely not some drinkable fresh water. The fresh water that can be drunk now requires at least four sets of basic materials. Those who need fresh water come to me. I have the lowest price here. Four sets of materials can buy absolutely drinkable fresh water! ]
[ That sounds very reasonable. But if fresh water bought with three sets of raw materials of can be drunk, why would I buy a more expensive ones? ]
“That’s right!”
“I’ll buy one set and taste it first!”
Grimm smiled. Of course his fresh water was drinkable. It was just that the source was more abundant.
In the next moment, he received a trade notification.
[ Trade successful, obtained: Ordinary alloy X 3!”]
At the same time, someone sent a message in the communication channel.
[ I just bought one set, it’s really drinkable. There’s no difference in the taste of drinking other fresh water! ]
[ F * ck? Then I must buy more! ]
[ I don’t have any more ice cubes here. I have to buy fresh water from outside! ]
[ Boss, how many more do you have? I want to buy them all! ]
Seeing this message, Grimm smiled and replied.
[ Don’t worry, there’s plenty of fresh water. As long as you want to buy, you can have as much as you want! ]
[ F * ck? Boss is awesome! ]
[ This is f * cking weird. Where did you get so much fresh water? ]
[ Hahaha, someone’s business has been stolen! ]
[ F * ck me…]
Grimm laughed. He could collect 100 portions of fresh water in one go. Even if he sold one portion of fresh water for an ordinary alloy, he could still make a big profit!
In the next moment, the other guy actually lowered the price.
[ I also f * cking lowered the price. Three portions of materials! ]
Seeing this situation, Grimm suddenly laughed. He did not expect this guy to really lower the price. He estimated that there was a large amount of ice near the player, so he could lower the price. But no matter what, it could not be lower than his own cost.
Grimm quickly posted a message in the trading center.
[ Only two sets of basic materials are needed for freshwater, those who want come! ]
At the same time, Grimm modified all the transactions that were put up in the trading center.
[ What the F * ck? This boss is awesome! ]
[ This is f * cking… too cheap! ]
[ I want to buy! I want to buy! ]
Although the price had dropped this time, Grimm’s trading speed had obviously increased by several times. Even those players who did not lack water began to purchase a large number of fresh water from Grimm’s side as reserves.
[ Transaction successful, obtained ordinary alloy x 2! ]
[ Transaction successful, obtained ordinary alloy x 2! ]
…
In front of Grimm’s eyes, the transaction notifications were all linked together. One by one, they popped up. It was so fast that he could not see clearly.
In less than a minute, he had obtained more than a hundred pieces of ordinary alloy.
Grimm was certainly not tired of it. He ordered the mechanical claw to capture fresh water again and again, and then continued to sell it at such a low price.
An hour later, the communication channel was still discussing the matter of Grimm selling fresh water.
[ Did you see it? Big boss has already sold thousands of portions of fresh water, why isn’t it sold out yet? ]
[ Is there a F * cking cheat? ]
[ There’s too much fresh water. Big boss didn’t go to a planet with fresh water everywhere, right? ]
Grimm occasionally glanced at it and saw this message. He smiled slightly and replied.
[ How did you know? ]
[ What the f * ck? Is that what happened? ]
[ Big Brother, how did you find a planet with fresh water? ]
[ Big Brother, can you tell us? ]
Grimm smiled. He was purely lucky. Who knew that he would actually find a large water ball after entering a wormhole.
But even if he had some special method, it was impossible to tell these players.
In this apocalyptic environment, resources were everything.
All information about resources was top secret. As long as he knew these top secrets, he would be invincible.
Therefore, Grimm replied with a message.
[ You have the nerve to ask this kind of thing…]
[ That’s right, that’s right. How could big brother reveal such important information to us? ]
[ Big boss, I want to suck up to you! ]
[ Can big boss bring me along? ]
Grimm shook his head and directly closed the communication channel.
Making money was the end of it. As for chatting, he was not interested, and it was even more impossible for him to bring other players along. He was a person who owned the system, so how could he easily form an alliance with other players?
He did not look at the transaction reminder. In any case, he simply could not see through it all.
After sitting down, Grimm took out another bag of French fries and began to eat them. He ate while looking at the scenery outside the window.
However, the scenery outside was still as monotonous as before. There was nothing but the endless sea. When he raised his head, he could not even see a cloud.
“What a monotonous world!”
Grimm sighed inwardly. But at this moment, he suddenly received a notification.
[ Warning: unknown danger is approaching! ]
Grimm hurriedly looked at the radar. On the scanning map, there was a small red light dot flashing and approaching.
However, the speed of picking up things was not considered fast. Moreover, it was actually from the bottom of the sea.
“What is this situation?”
“Monsters?”
Grimm shook his head. It was almost impossible to have monsters here. Or to put it another way, if there were no living organisms such as bacteria and fungi, it would be impossible to breed other creatures. It would be even more difficult for monsters to reproduce.
“What exactly is it?”
Grimm quickly got up, put away the French fries, and gave an order to the spaceship.
“Can we dive?”
“We can dive, but we will lose a part of our speed!”
Grimm nodded. “Dive, get closer, but don’t get too close!”
[ Warning: no underwater weapons at our disposal! ]
Grimm suddenly realized that his energy weapons had a difficult time penetrating the seawater. Although the cannonballs fired from the turrets could attack the opponent below the surface of the sea, the water would inevitably reduce their speed and causing them to lose their power.
“Forget it, let’s just take off!”
[ Preparing to take off! ]
With the roar of the engines, the spaceship gradually rose from the surface of the water.
