Chapter 19 - We Are About to Rise

Li Tian's heart was filled with excitement. He was so excited that he had already lost his mind.

He looked at the 13 fishing rods in his Bag.

He had been in this state for more than ten minutes, and he still felt like he was in a dream.

Li Tian commented, [Bro, come and take a look. Is this really a fishing rod?]

[Not bad, Li Tian. You really bought the fishing rods on credit from Su Bai.]

[Give it to me, Li Tian. I need a second fishing rod. Give it to me!]

Only when he saw everyone's reply did Li Tian know that this was not a dream.

Li Tian commented, [Of course! We have to work hard for Su Bai. You know…]

[What is it, Li Tian?]

[Li Tian, is there a problem?]

Li Tian suddenly realized something was wrong.

Earlier, Su Bai had solemnly told Li Tian not to tell anyone about this, but in just a short while, Li Tian had almost revealed the secret.

Li Tian commented, [No, no. What I want to say is that these are Su Bai's trust in us. Otherwise, who would give us these 13 fishing rods on credit? Besides, you guys need to work hard. The materials of these fishing rods have to be returned to Su Bai at market price!]

[Don't worry, Li Tian. We know what we're doing,]

Warning! The storm is coming! The storm will arrive in this area in five days!

There will be many crises at that time. All players, please hurry up and improve your strength.

Detected that the strength of the players in this area is low. To increase the survival rate, the probability of obtaining treasure chests will be slightly increased in the next four days.

Since the storm is coming, the ranking system is activated.

Comprehensive Strength Ranking

1st Place: Wu Qingfeng.

2nd Place: Su Bai.

3rd Place: Meng Lin.

4th Place: Lin Zicheng.

5th Place: Liu Cunzhuang.

6th Place: Chai Yubian.

On the Chat page.

[Everyone, listen to the announcement. A storm is really coming. However, the system's words are too harsh. It actually said that the players in our region are weak!]

[Who cares if the system's words sound nice or not? I only care about increasing the probability of the treasure chest dropping.]

[That's right. I have two fishing rods now. I don't believe I can't make a fortune in the next few days!]

[Don't talk big. I can see that your stomach is still empty, and you're still thinking of getting rich.]

[Bros, have you all seen the rankings? Su Bai is not first!]

[Of course I saw it. Su Bai is alone. Of course, he can't compete with those alliances who are collecting resources together.]

[Hmm, if only Su Bai could also form an alliance. I hope Su Bai can be the number one.]

This time, the system's notification caused a lot of people to panic, and everyone worked even harder to fish.

After all, no one wanted to die in the storm. It would be too aggrieving.

Su Bai didn't pay much attention to it after seeing the ranking.

It was true that he had an SSS grade talent, but it was just a ranking. Su Bai had studied it for a long time and still couldn't figure out how this ability was measured, so he couldn't explain anything.

But if there was a wealth list, Su Bai believed that he would be the first on the list without a doubt.

As for increasing the drop rate of treasure chests, it was useless to Su Bai, because he could get silver chests every time.

Silver Chest successfully opened: You've obtained Wooden Plank x 86!

Silver Chest successfully opened: You've obtained Silk Thread x 91!

Silver Chest successfully opened: You've obtained Iron Ore x 9!

Silver Chest successfully opened: You've obtained Wooden Plank x 86!

At noon, Su Bai opened the Trade page and wanted to sell some drinking water, but he suddenly found that the price of drinking water was no longer high.

With the increase in the drop rate of treasure chests, everyone in this area had obtained quite a few good items.

Now, they no longer had such a strong need for food and water. All they needed were ingredients.

"That's a good thing. The things they can get are getting better and better. I have countless of the materials they need. I'm the one who has the final say in the market." Su Bai murmured.

After all, Su Bai's fishing rod was a high-level one, and he could get a silver chest every time, and he could get 80 or 90 wooden planks at a time.

Item for trade: Wooden Plank x 500. Condition: 2 Wooden Planks for 1 Stats Elixir Fragment.

Item for trade: Silk Thread x 500. Condition: 2 Silk Threads for 1 Stats Elixir Fragment.

After Su Bai put up all the items for trade, he found that all the stats elixir fragments that he had asked for had been successfully traded.

"When did that happen? Why don't I recall any of it?"

Su Bai quickly checked his Bag and found no trace of the stats elixir fragments.

It was only now that Su Bai remembered that the previous batch of fishing rods had been selling so well that they could only be combined in the Safe House, which meant that some of the stats elixir fragments had been exchanged a long time ago. It was just that they had been placed in the Warehouse and Su Bai had not discovered them.

It had been less than five hours since Su Bai last entered the Safe House. He could only wait.

..

Within the Dark Night Alliance.

A player with C-rank talent was fishing with all his might, and he was on the verge of breaking down.

He had not had a full meal since he joined the Dark Night Alliance.

Originally, he thought that an alliance formed by people with B-rank talent would be better, but it was only after he joined that he realized that it was just a scam.

The so-called common development was just for them to work hard to collect resources and then hand them over.

After that, they would distribute bread and water according to the resources each person obtained every day.

Now, he only felt that he had been deceived. He had worked so hard to gather the alliance entrance fee for so long, but now, it was already a huge sum of money. However, he was still hungry.

The fishing rod in his hand moved. This was the signal of successful fishing. He didn't dare to be careless and quickly began to reel in the line.

His luck was not bad. It was actually a bronze chest.

Treasure chest successfully opened: You've obtained Blueprint x 1!

Rare Blueprint: Normal Fishing Rod

Materials Needed: Wooden Planks x 20, Silk Thread x 20, Iron Ore X 1. 

Can be used to craft a Normal Fishing Rod.

"C-Could this really be a blueprint for a normal fishing rod? Are my eyes playing tricks on me?"

After confirming it three times, he was so excited that he almost jumped up.

He quickly opened his friend list and reported the news, and the only condition he offered was to give him one fishing rod after he made it.

[Leader, good news, good news! Someone just opened a treasure chest and got a fishing rod blueprint!]

Meng Lin replied, [What? Is it really the blueprint of a fishing rod?]

[How could it be fake? The blueprint is in my hands!]

Meng Lin commented, [Hahaha! It seems that today is the day for the rise of the Dark Night Alliance!]
