Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

The gold text only remained on the screen for 3 minutes.

However, it left the two of them speechless for a long time.

The official website of Great Xia? This feels like home.

It's like a wanderer who's been away from home suddenly seeing his family looking for him on TV—a feeling that's mixed with emotions.

In the original world, whenever disaster strikes, the nation is always your strongest support. Countless earthquakes, tsunamis, blizzards, major infectious diseases... have been overcome time and time again thanks to the nation's correct decisions.

Being born in Daxia is my biggest trump card!

However, this is, after all, a world shrouded in mist, a world where people eat each other. No matter how many feelings he has, Mo Ming must think twice before acting.

After careful consideration, the two decided to join the group first to see how things went. If the group owner really was Su Zhenguo, then it wouldn't hurt to go and check it out.

In the Great Xia Dynasty, Su Zhenguo is a household name, and at least 80% of the population knows him.

He frequently appears in the news, and many of the great policies of the Great Xia Dynasty were advocated and implemented by him. He can be said to be a truly good official who benefits the people.

The two joined the group chat, and wow, in just a short while, the number of people in the group had already exceeded seven figures.

And the number continues to increase.

After confirming that the group owner was indeed him, both of them were quite excited and decided to go and see for themselves.

After the shelter is rated, it will enter the polar night, and the gathering time is set for the third day after the polar night. The specific location coordinates are also attached.

Mo Ming silently memorized the time and place.

The gathering came to an end, and the three items in the deep blue zone were once again out of reach for the two. One was bought by someone from India, and the other two were taken by survivors from South Korea.

......

I woke up to find it was the last day of the polar day. The rating will be conducted today after the items in the Mist Shop are refreshed, and the three-day polar night will begin immediately after the rating is completed.

To alleviate the pressure on the shelter during the polar night, there was something inexplicably necessary to do on this last day: go to the Great Lake and kill that deep blue-level ferocious beast.

Now that the shelter has been upgraded to level 4, the radar's detection range has expanded to 5 kilometers, enough to cover the Great Lake.

As expected, a bright blue dot appeared on the radar, about 3 kilometers away from the shelter.

It seems the ferocious beast has not left the great lake.

Mo Ming called Xiao Jin over and asked it to go to the other side of the lake to see if it could lure the creature away from the lake.

He himself observed from the guard radar, and once the ferocious beast left the lake, he led his brothers, Xiong Da and Xiong Er, to provide support.

As an hour passed, Mo Ming was disappointed. The dark blue dot on the radar remained unchanged, as if it were frozen in place.

Before long, the loud cry of an eagle reached Mo Ming's ears; Xiao Jin had returned.

Mo Ming didn't think much of it and remained lying in bed, worrying about how to lure the ferocious beast out and deal with it in advance.

But then, Xiao Jin's eagle cries continued one after another, incessantly.

Mo Ming then realized something was wrong. Xiao Jin was showing off. Was there an enemy attack?

However, there was no abnormality displayed on the radar. Without thinking too much, Mo Ming hurriedly went downstairs and ran out of the shelter.

Stepping out of the courtyard, Mo Ming's muscles tensed instantly as he looked around, but found nothing unusual.

"What's going on?" Mo Ming looked up at Xiao Jin, who was still circling in the sky, and took out the bronze demon-suppressing sword to carefully investigate around the shelter's walls.

When they reached the east side of the shelter, Mo Ming's hair stood on end, and cold sweat poured down his back.

A person appeared in his line of sight!

Mo Ming was a little confused. How could someone be here? The security radar hadn't detected them yet.

The most outrageous thing is that Little Gold only dared to circle in the sky to show off, and had no intention of coming down to hunt at all.

Looking at the person's attire, he wore a travel hat, a large backpack, a gray vest, and a pair of cowboy boots.

Mo Ming suddenly came to his senses. This attire... could it be... a treasure merchant?

After calming himself down, Mo Ming carefully recalled the fog notification from back then.

It seems to mention that one cannot attack treasure merchants, otherwise the consequences will be unbearable.

That's why Xiao Jin didn't dare to attack. It seems that this rule applies not only to survivors but also to pets.

As for why the guardian radar couldn't detect it, Mo Ming guessed that it must have some kind of treasure on it that acted as a shield.

The more he thought about it, the more convinced he became that the uninvited guest before him was a treasure merchant.

Seeing that he didn't seem inclined to speak, Mo Ming slowly stepped forward until they were about three meters apart before tentatively asking, "Are you... a treasure merchant?"

The man did not respond; his eyes remained vacant.

Am I wrong? Is he not a treasure merchant?

Or is there something wrong with how I asked the question?

Do you have any treasures you can sell me?

Mo Ming was not giving up and continued to ask questions.

These words seemed to have triggered something, for the man's eyes suddenly cleared, and he turned to look at Mo Ming.

A smile suddenly appeared on his face. "Hello survivor, I am Treasure Merchant No. 741. You can call me Horn."

Mo Ming wondered if he was hallucinating, but he saw a hint of relief in Horn's smile.

"Hello Horn, my name is Mo Ming. Do you have any treasures you can sell me?"

Having confirmed Horn's identity, Mo Ming responded politely.

“Of course, I brought five treasures from the Treasure Pavilion this time. Please take a look!” With that, Horn opened the bag on his back, and five orbs of light immediately floated out.

"Can I buy all five treasures?"

"Of course, that's assuming you have enough money!"

Ha, who do you think you are? You made nearly 5 Guling coins selling condoms before, so Mo Ming is now a small-time tycoon!

Upon receiving a positive answer, Mo Ming felt a surge of excitement. Suppressing his excitement, he carefully examined each of their details.

Vibranium Armor: Crimson Purple Grade

Description: Crafted from the rare material mica gold, the armor expands to cover the entire body when worn. It features boosters on the back for short-distance flight and can spew high-temperature flames from the palms...

P.S.: Wearing this will transform you into Iron Man!

"Wow, that's so cool!" I'm inexplicably itching to try this vibranium armor. Everyone says that mecha is a boy's dream. Who doesn't dream of becoming a superhero?

"I'll buy this vibranium armor. How much?" Mo Ming was determined to get the equipment no matter what.

"Only 20 Ancient Coins."

Nani?

20?

"Why don't you go and grab it?"

The moment he heard the price, Mo Ming's heart shattered. Could he afford it even if he sold himself?

"The price is fair, and we treat everyone fairly, young and old!" Horn said with a smile to Mo Ming.

(Mo Ming: If that outlaw were here, my third brother would make sure you get a life sentence, or rot in jail.)

Honest and fair dealing with everyone, young and old? Honest and fair dealing my ass!

However, since he couldn't afford it, Mo Ming didn't dwell on it any longer and moved on to the next item.
