Repair and Upgrades
System Points can restore damaged objects or improve ordinary equipment into more capable tools 3 8 31 47.
| Item / Operation | Cost | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Bloodsucking Dagger repair | 600 quoted; 450 after manual preparation | Jiang He repairs part of its exterior himself before paying for a roughly fifty-minute system repair 2 3. |
| Damaged plastic barrel repair | 50 | Produces a 1,000-liter Waste Barrel 8. |
| Medical mask upgrade | 100 | Turns the ordinary mask into an exceptional filter 31. |
| Alcohol upgrades | 700 total | Prepares alcohol for Jiang He's planned fire attack at the service area 32. |

The fuel equipment has several quoted upgrade tiers 47:
| Upgrade Scope | Cost | Stated Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Nozzle alone | 70 | The system warns that upgrading only this part would not produce ideal results. |
| Nozzle and fuel pump | 200 | Adds 10 meters of spray range. |
| Nozzle, fuel pump, and booster pump | 300 | Adds 20 meters of spray range. |
| Entire assembly | 550 | Adds the capacity increase, 30-meter range increase, and Rapid Filling; Jiang He selects this option. |
Fusion and Awakening
Fusion combines items or integrates supernatural materials and Sequence Crystals into Jiang He 20 37 46.
- Guaranteed crystal awakening: Jiang He states that system fusion offers a 100% awakening chance, compared with less than 30% when directly swallowing a Sequence Crystal. Lacking points during an emergency, he initially takes the riskier route 5.
- Additional Sequences: Sufficient points allow him to continue fusing Sequence Crystals rather than relying on ordinary awakening chances 28.
- Increasing costs: The system states that required points multiply as Jiang He awakens more Superpower Sequences. The Thief Crystal costs twice as much as the preceding Priest Crystal despite its lower ranking 46.
| Fusion | Cost | Outcome / Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Mimosa + mechanical watch | 1,000 | Chosen option; produces the Shy Watch 20 21. |
| Mimosa + Bloodsucking Dagger | 4,500 | Offered alternative 20. |
| Mimosa + bus | 5,000 | Offered alternative 20. |
| Mimosa + Lightning-Struck Wood | 6,500 | Offered alternative 20. |
| Bus + RV passenger compartments | 10,000 | Chosen twelve-hour fusion; the bus gains Transformation and improved performance 26 30. |
| Bus + RV partial fusion | 15,000 | Offered alternative 26. |
| Bus + RV complete fusion | 20,000 | Offered alternative 26. |
| Incomplete Spore Fruit | 10,000 | Jiang He initiates fusion during the struggle for the fruit 37. |
| Devil Arum Heart | 50,000 standard price | Jiang He instead uses a collateral arrangement to begin its twenty-four-hour fusion 41. |
| Thief Sequence Crystal | 2,000 | Approximately one-hour fusion; subsequently awakens the Thief Sequence 46 48. |
Binding and System Unlocks
| Function | Cost | Effect / Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Bind the bus | 1,000 | Makes the bus Jiang He's Weird Object; the system also extracts its Energy Core 12. |
| Automatic pickup | 1,500 | Automatically stores Weird Objects and Sequence Wonders dropped by slain monsters; requires available system storage 19. |
| Sixth storage slot | 10,000 | Alternative to unlocking it by killing a Level 4 extraordinary creature 44. |
Pricing Rules and Limits
- Manual work can lower repair costs: Repairing one-quarter of the Bloodsucking Dagger's exterior reduces its quoted cost from 600 to 450 points 2.
- Collateral can enable an unaffordable fusion: For the Devil Arum Heart, the system accepts 5,000 points plus a Level 5 extraordinary item as collateral. Jiang He pledges a Devil Arum stamen, which can be redeemed once he has enough points 41.
- Consumables do not necessarily require fusion: The system tells Jiang He that Sequence Potions can be consumed directly without spending points 9.
- Points do not bypass an active fusion: Jiang He must wait for his Demon Seed fusion to finish before fusing another item 39.
- Upgrades can run alongside fusion: The fuel assembly upgrade proceeds while the Thief Crystal is still fusing because the two operations use separate interfaces 47.
Documented Balances
These are balances reported in the text, rather than a reconstructed transaction ledger.
| Chapter | Reported Balance | Context |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | 500 | Beginner gift pack reward, before appraisal and repair spending. |
| 4 | 0 | Jiang He has spent all his points and cannot appraise the repaired dagger. |
| 8 | Approximately 11,000 | He still appraises the bus before deciding whether it is worth repairing. |
| 17 | 10,350 → 11,152, still rising | Successive Undying Insect swarms burn in Gou Village. |
| 19 | 14,000 | Total after killing the Undying Insect Mother, before unlocking automatic pickup. |
| 34 | 8,920 → 8,930 → 8,942 | Demon Seed kill rewards continue arriving after he leaves the service area. |
| 39 | 10,200 | Reported after fruit fusion, Urn repair, and Bearded Face Skin identification expenses. |
| 44 | 5,050 | Remaining after the Devil Arum Heart arrangement; insufficient to purchase the sixth storage slot. |
Story Significance
- Early scarcity shapes Jiang He's preparation: His initial 500 points cannot cover the dagger's 600-point repair, forcing him to reduce the cost through manual sharpening 2 3.
- Undying Insects become a farming opportunity: He follows their feeler vibrations to Gou Village and burns successive swarms to fund larger upgrades 17 19.
- Demon Seed bonuses encourage repeated raids: Double points and improved drops help draw him back into the Devil Arum's lair despite the danger 34 35.
- Conservation remains important: Jiang He leaves minor vehicle repairs to Wang Qian rather than spending points unnecessarily 26.
