"Make ten portions first."
The workbench started running again, though this time the sound was much softer.
In just a few seconds, ten rolls of clean, snow-white Simple Bandages radiating a faint alcohol scent were freshly baked.
Su Ye directly opened the trade interface with Mo Yu, placed these ten bandages on it, and clicked send.
Almost the moment the trade was sent, Mo Yu on the other side accepted it in a flash.
After a full five or six minutes, just when Su Ye thought this kid might have lost too much blood and didn't make it, Mo Yu's message finally came through again.
"Many thanks, cousin. Whew... I finally survived. The bleeding stopped, and the wound is slowly scabbing over. The effect of these bandages is simply amazing."
Looking at the rejuvenated tone of the other person, Su Ye's hanging heart finally dropped, and he asked with some curiosity, "How did you get hurt so badly? Don't you have a hand crossbow? With the power of a hand crossbow, ordinary monsters at the current stage shouldn't even be able to get close to you."
"It was my own carelessness. When I was searching an abandoned warehouse just now, I ran into two monsters with horns on their heads."
"One of them went crazy and roared from the front, attracting my full attention. I had just used the hand crossbow to shoot it dead, but the other one sneaked up behind me out of nowhere and ambushed me."
"If I hadn't reacted fast and dodged the vital spots, I'd be dead by now."
Su Ye understood. It seemed the other person had run into other civilization monsters, because the intelligence of primitive monsters before Zero-Tier and Tier One was not high, nor did they understand cooperation.
"Cousin, how do you sell these bandages? I want to buy a few more just in case."
Mo Yu asked, "I'm really scared from this time. Having no medicine on me leaves me with zero confidence."
Su Ye glanced at the workbench that was still continuing to make hand crossbows, thought for a moment, and directly took out a hundred bandages, put them into the trade column, and clicked send.
"Don't worry about paying."
"You didn't ask me for money for that blueprint and sent it directly to me. Just let me know whenever you need bandages in the future, and I'll provide them to you for free."
"But if you get any good blueprints in the future, or hunt the meat of Mutant Beasts, remember to keep them for me first, and I guarantee the price will satisfy you."
Su Ye's words were not a pretense of generosity.
The cost of these Simple Bandages was low, made with two pieces of torn cloth plus a little alcohol. Even if he provided them to Mo Yu for free, he wouldn't suffer a loss.
More importantly, this Mo Yu seemed naturally destined to cross paths with blueprints.
Using a few cheap bandages to tie down such a player and build a good relationship would definitely bring him more unexpected, huge returns in the future.
Even if the other person didn't have that luck in the future, he would only be providing some bandages, so he definitely wouldn't lose out.
"Many thanks, cousin. You're so generous! Right, I still have three chunks of Mutated Bird Meat here. I originally planned to nourish my body with them, but now I'll give them all to you. If I get good things in the future, I will definitely contact you at the first opportunity."
Immediately after, a trade request popped up.
[Player Mo Yu initiated a trade with you. Traded items: Roasted Mutated Bird Meat*3.]
Su Ye clicked accept, and three pieces of bird meat radiating a rich meaty aroma appeared in the storage ring.
[Roasted Mutated Bird Meat]
[Effect]: Can fill the stomach after consumption, and slightly increase mental power. Each piece consumed permanently increases 0.5 mental attribute. (Note: Takes effect up to three times.)
"Good stuff!"
Su Ye's heart instantly rejoiced. He hadn't expected these to be meat chunks that increased mental attributes.
Once these three pieces of meat went into his stomach, his mental attribute could directly increase by 1.5 points.
His current mental attribute was 5.1. If he added this 1.5 points, his mental attribute could directly soar to 6.6.
"Alright, I'll accept the items, but I can't let you suffer a loss either. Take these few things for self-defense."
Su Ye had never liked owing people favors, and he understood even better how to maintain this kind of mutually beneficial and win-win relationship.
He directly clicked open the trade column and sent the other person four brand-new Double-Shot Hand Crossbows he had just made, paired with a full two hundred Simple Crossbow Bolts.
After thinking for a moment, he fished out a Machete he had no use for from the corner of the storage ring and put it on as well.
"Cousin is righteous! From now on, your little brother will follow cousin to make a living!"
Mo Yu replied excitedly. Through the screen, his agitation could be felt.
Su Ye smiled and closed the private chat interface.
He walked over to an open space at the side, sat down, and took out the three pieces of Mutated Bird Meat to eat.
As the meat entered his mouth, although a bit stringy, with the chewing, a strange warm current quickly slid down his esophagus into his stomach, followed by this warm current transforming into wisps of cool energy rushing straight to his head.
[Clang! Consumed Roasted Mutated Bird Meat, mental attribute +0.5.]
[Clang! Consumed Roasted Mutated Bird Meat, mental attribute +0.5.]
[Clang! Consumed Roasted Mutated Bird Meat, mental attribute +0.5.]
Three consecutive system prompt sounds rang out in his mind.
When the last bite of meat was swallowed, Su Ye only felt his brain emit a low buzz, as if an invisible barrier had been instantly pierced through.
An unprecedented sense of clarity swept over his entire body, and his perception ushered in a surge at this moment.
"Not bad, not bad. That way, no matter how fast the vehicle goes, I'll be able to react and won't drive myself to fainting again."
Afterward, Su Ye looked at the workbench, letting it finish making the hand crossbows first, and then make the bandages afterwards.
"Hum..."
Before long, the dazzling white light shrouding the vehicle suddenly converged, emitting a low engine roar.
The fifteen-minute upgrade time was up.
Su Ye turned his head to look. The overall shape of the car before his eyes was like a black leopard crouching on the ground, filled with aggressiveness and a sense of speed.
However, Su Ye didn't rush to check the specific attributes, because his current resources were sufficient, and he intended to continue upgrading.
[Clang! Detected that the player meets the upgrade conditions. Do you want to upgrade the Level Four Vehicle?]
"Yes!"
[Please select the upgrade direction.]
Facing the three options that appeared once again, Su Ye still didn't even blink his eyes.
"Speed direction!"
Since he had decided to take the ultimate mobility route, he would carry it through to the end and push the speed to the peak of the current stage.
Then Su Ye also integrated the Function Module Hard Armor into this upgrade.
[The vehicle is starting to upgrade, estimated twenty minutes. Please wait patiently, player.]
The familiar white light appeared once again, re-wrapping the vehicle in the glaring white light.
Before even twenty minutes had passed, the workbench stopped first, and all two hundred hand crossbows were finished.
"These hand crossbows won't be sold to Ling Yue and the others. They can be sold to other rogue players to acquire Mutant Beast meat."
Even if Ling Yue and the others had Mutant Beast meat, they wouldn't bear to give it to him; they would definitely give it to their subordinates to use first.
But other rogue players were different. If they had surplus Mutant Beast meat, they would definitely be willing to take it out to buy a hand crossbow.
Su Ye immediately clicked open the trade interface and edited the trade information.
[Items for Sale]: Simple Double-Shot Hand Crossbow*1, Simple Crossbow Bolt*10.
[Inventory Quantity]: 190 groups.
[Trade Conditions]: Exchange for Mutated Meat Chunks only.
With the information edited, Su Ye clicked to list them.
