Medical grade sterile remineralized drinking water

Before him, the Alloy Steel Blade lay quietly in Chen Yu's hand.

The blade exuded a heavy texture from the inside out, weighing more than ten catties in his hand.

"With the sharpness of this blade..."

Chen Yu narrowed his eyes: "Cutting people will be like cutting watermelons..."

He wouldn't even need to rely as heavily on brute force as he did before.

His mind raced.

If this was a hidden rule of the talent—that when returned items exceed the personal backpack's capacity limit, they aren't wasted or overflowed, but instead are smelted and sublimated—then its scope of application was terrifying.

"If crayfish exceed the limit, could they turn into lobsters???"

Chen Yu rubbed his chin and shouted, "Deng Yuxin, come in!"

Outside the carriage.

Deng Yuxin stood up abruptly, her face turning red instantly.

She subconsciously adjusted the collar of her jk uniform and her pleated skirt.

"Oh! Co-coming!"

She quickly stepped into the safety compartment.

But in less than ten seconds...

She was pushed straight back out by Chen Yu.

Deng Yuxin: "???"

The girls: "..."

On the other side of the door—

Chen Yu was holding a massive lobster in his hand.

This lobster was enormous, with a dark red shell and thick, powerful claws.

Its body length far exceeded half a meter.

And he had suddenly obtained six such lobsters.

[red luan Talent: A-grade 'Little Lobster Summoning' (Can summon 0.5kg of fresh crayfish daily)]

[Talent Return: For each summoning, receive 85kg of fresh crayfish]

[Warning: Insufficient backpack capacity]

[85kg of fresh crayfish cannot be stored]

[Unable to store talent materials]

[Exchanging for equivalent materials]

[Species Upgrade: crayfish → Boston Lobster]

[Talent Return: Boston Lobster × 17kg]

That's right, 17kg, 6 lobsters, roughly 3kg each.

Chen Yu didn't actually know where this level of Boston Lobster ranked in the seafood world.

But converting 85kg of crayfish into 17kg of Boston Lobsters... Chen Yu was extremely happy.

For one thing, Chen Yu really didn't like eating crayfish.

Peeling the shells was a hassle.

For Chen Yu, whose Strength attribute was as high as 100, he often accidentally crushed them while peeling.

And if you didn't peel them? They didn't taste good... On the other hand, Chen Yu hadn't eaten big lobsters in either of his two lifetimes.

He truly hadn't expected to be able to eat them this way after the apocalypse.

"I wonder how they taste..."

The corners of Chen Yu's mouth curled up slightly as he stepped out of the compartment.

The girls had been chatting.

The moment Chen Yu emerged, everyone looked up in unison, their gazes focusing instantly.

Then, they all froze.

They saw Chen Yu holding two lively, dark red lobsters in his hands.

The lobsters' tails almost reached his knees... Wang Mengmeng gasped, "So big! Where did you get boston lobsters?!"

Deng Yuxin blinked: "These are boston lobsters?"

Wang Mengmeng nodded: "They're clearly boston lobsters! It's just that they're way too huge, right?"

Deng Yuxin pursed her lips... Did the appearance of boston lobsters mean someone had awakened an ability to summon them?

That would be a completely superior version of her own talent, wouldn't it?

Facing the girls' surprise, Chen Yu nodded. "I found a partner. Their team has a specialized producer for boston lobsters, and I traded extra supplies for them."

As she drove, Zhang Wanyue asked curiously, "Someone would actually trade boston lobsters for crayfish?"

Chen Yu shrugged. "Of course. Why are you all just standing there? Wang Mengmeng, Li Mengyao, go find a pot and boil some water."

The two girls quickly responded and got busy following Chen Yu's instructions.

Before long, two bright red, plump Boston Lobsters were served.

Simply steamed, their fresh sweetness was preserved to the maximum.

The savory scent of the ocean filled the entire carriage.

"No one touch these two big claws; save them for the Class Monitor."

"After all..."

After all, she hadn't had a single bite since she started driving.

But before he could finish his sentence...

A pleasant surprise of a notification reached his ears:

[red luan Identified: Zhang Wanyue]

[red luan Number: 4]

[Connection Nature: Trust Consensus]

[Connection Depth: Lv.10]

[Current Effective Multiplier: 100x]

[red luan Talent: A-grade 'Basic Drinking Water Guarantee' (Can summon 500ml bottled water × 50 daily)]

[Talent Return: For each summoning, receive 500ml bottled water × 5000]

"?"

Chen Yu never expected it.

Zhang Wanyue would actually establish a connection with him in such a bizarre way.

"Trust Consensus..."

"And it leveled up to 10 in the blink of an eye?"

One had to realize that only three days had passed since the start of Road to Survival!

Chen Yu was starting to feel that the methods of connection were quite diverse, and even somewhat simple!

The only thing to watch out for was the note under the [Red Phoenix Tribulation Seat] talent effect: Causing excessive resentment/hatred from a red luan may lead to connection shattering/failure.

Now, of the five girls in the vehicle, four had established a connection with him within three days.

And the natures of the connections were all different.

The only one who hadn't established a connection was his ex-girlfriend, Li Mengyao.

Chen Yu had no feelings for her, only weariness, annoyance, and other negative emotions.

He'd give her three more days.

If there was no psychological connection, he would force a physiological one, and then discard her.

Chen Yu made a cold-blooded plan.

"After all what?"

"Hmm?"

Li Mengyao blinked and mimicked Chen Yu's tone: "You just said it—don't touch these two big claws, save them for the Class Monitor, after all... and then you stopped talking..."

Chen Yu spoke indifferently: "After all, there aren't many people I find pleasant to look at, so she needs to eat well."

As the words fell, the carriage fell silent for a moment.

Zhang Wanyue, in the front row, heard him clearly, and a faint blush spread from the base of her ears across her side profile.

Chen Yu caught her attempt to remain calm.

At the same time, the level rose by another rank.

Since the Class Monitor was identified as a red luan, her leveling speed was second only to Yang Kexin, whom he had tutored in drawing.

"Wow~"

Yang Kexin marveled in a small voice, the corners of her mouth curling up slightly.

The Class Monitor was the kindest to her, so she was happy to see this.

As for Li Mengyao, the bit of jealousy in her heart was already beginning to bubble and boil.

Wang Mengmeng's eyes darted around, and she immediately chimed in with a grin: "Exactly! The Class Monitor works so hard, Brother Yu is the most considerate! Truly meticulous~~~"

Chen Yu ignored her and looked up directly: "Class Monitor, you haven't summoned today's water yet. Don't forget."

Zhang Wanyue gave an "oh" and immediately activated her talent.

Then, she moved the bottled water into the Public Backpack.

At the same time.

The talent prompt rang out in Chen Yu's mind again:
