【Firefly+ Grade “Magic Hut”】
The Magic Hut, imbued with magical abilities, can effectively resist attacks from intermediate magic beasts and possesses a certain degree of spatial expansion capability.
Shelter Facilities: Primary Magic Shield (100%), Small Magic Item Storage (5 cubic meters).
Shelter Upgrade: 0/800 raw wood, 0/800 raw stone, Magic Core 0/1 (optional addition).
Additional Effects: Within the totem pillar’s radiation range, Magic Value limit +200, Magic recovery speed +100%, Stamina recovery speed +10%.
Seeing the upgraded information, Jiang Xun breathed a sigh of relief.
The “Secondary Magic Shield” had turned into a “Primary Magic Shield,” and he even got an extra “Magic Item Storage.”
With a stronger shield, he could rest a little easier tonight.
“Wala” was also startled awake, leaping onto Jiang Xun’s shoulder in two steps, staring wide-eyed at the changes before him!
“Wala?”
“Ang!”
“Wala wala?!”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
“Wala wala wala wala?!”
“Alright, go play, I don’t understand what you’re saying!”
Jiang Xun casually pulled out a few milk candies and gave them to “Wala.”
He had recently discovered that the number of “milk candies” he could pull out seemed to have increased.
He could even pull out fruit-flavored milk candies now?!
Could this useless ability even evolve?!
Jiang Xun quickly shook his head, dismissing it, and continued to admire his hut.
He had just learned from the system prompts that:
The Level 2 “Magic Hut” has expansion capabilities, allowing him to add room facilities like a “Magic Kitchen” later on.
And the included “Magic Item Storage” was essentially a small “space storage box.”
It could only be used to store magic materials and prevent the magic materials placed inside from losing their magic over time!
“Looks good and works well! As expected, it’s the palace of I, Guna La, God of Darkness! Hahahaha!”
A chuunibyou-like demonic laugh came from Jiang Xun’s mouth, but then it suddenly stopped.
Hmm?
Did the “Magic Hut” have some additional abilities?
He quickly opened his information panel and indeed saw:
【Personal Information】
Name: Jiang Xun
Level: Glimmer+
Strength: 4
Agility: 5
Stamina: 5
Intelligence: 9
Magic Value: 430/430 (Recovery Speed: 22+66 + 22 points/h)
Skills: Acquisition Art: (Level 1 89%)
Damn!
Looking at his 430 maximum Magic Value and a terrifying 110 points per hour recovery speed.
Jiang Xun felt like crying without tears.
Were the attributes added by the Magic Hut not good?
Of course not!
200 Magic Value limit, 100% recovery speed—these were additional attributes almost everyone dreamed of!
Of course, everyone except Jiang Xun...
...
“Boom!” A loud crash.
A tree about ten meters outside the “Magic Hut” fell with a crash, scattering into a pile of raw wood.
Jiang Xun leaned weakly against the wooden hut’s door, pulled out an “apple-flavored” milk candy, and put it in his mouth.
He couldn’t use it all, simply couldn’t use it all!
His Magic Value recovered faster than he could spend it!
Jiang Xun looked at the only skill in his skill bar, 【Acquisition Art】, feeling helpless.
If anyone knew he was troubled by having too much Magic Value, they would surely curse him out!
He’s not human!
Jiang Xun felt that he desperately needed a powerful magic spell right now.
Preferably the kind that would drain his entire mana bar in one go!
The effect didn’t matter, the main thing was that it had to have a high mana cost!
After all, with the Magic Hut’s new 100% Magic Value recovery.
Jiang Xun’s recovery speed had already reached a terrifying 110 points/h!
That was 22 times that of a normal person!
One had to know that most people were still barely getting by with 5 points/h recovery!
It was simply outrageous!
【Ding, “Acquisition Art” upgraded, cooldown 30min — 20min】
Hearing the notification sound, Jiang Xun’s mouth twitched.
It seemed that using spells a lot could even upgrade them?!
Wouldn’t the efficiency of chopping trees be even higher now...
He looked up and around, noticing that the area near the hut had become barren.
The previously dense trees had now all turned into 【raw wood】 scattered messily on the ground.
Jiang Xun looked at the dark surroundings and realized that the time had already reached midnight:
【Time】
blue star calendar: Year 1 Day 1 19:00
(Night: 14:00 — 6:00)
Only an hour remained until all Blue Star people would usher in the second day of traversing the Magic Wasteland World...
And just then, the “magic wasteland handbook” in Jiang Xun’s hand floated up, and the Magic Array on it began to flicker.
Anyone who had played games knew this clearly indicated an interaction!
Jiang Xun walked over, opened the magic book, and sure enough, information came to his ears:
【Star Revelation:】
At the beginning of the journey, danger, like shadow beasts lurking in the dark night, silently approaches in the stillness.
You shall be like diligent squirrels, hoarding supplies, to prepare for unforeseen needs.
Today, the “Magic Gift” acquisition rate is as follows:
crystal ball: 3.51%.
Magic Seal Stone: 0.02%.
Stars shine, the wheel of fate turns:
At 20:00 on January 1st, the power of the stars will examine everyone’s Shelter and assess its safety.
At that time, rewards will be granted according to rank, a symbol of honor and strength, so strive with all your might.
A long, drawn-out passage of text, which left Jiang Xun somewhat confused.
But he still extracted the key points:
The crystal ball and Magic Seal Stone that everyone had been discussing were treasure chest items, and three to five out of a hundred people would get them.
Starting at 0:00 today, the system would evaluate the safety of everyone’s Shelter and distribute rewards based on their ranking.
Jiang Xun opened the communication interface again and found that the 【world channel】 was already in chaos:
“Damn, 8 billion people, wouldn’t that mean over 100 million people got supplies through the crystal ball?”
“Does anyone know what can come out of a crystal ball?!”
“I’m an emperor of luck, if anyone hasn’t opened their crystal ball yet, I’ll help you open it. If something good comes out, we split it fifty-fifty!”
“If you’re an emperor of luck, why don’t you go find a crystal ball yourself?!”
“None of your business!”
“I got a week’s worth of rations, but it doesn’t add attributes!”
“I got two fruits that can temporarily increase Magic Value recovery speed, hahahaha, I’ve already gathered my upgrade materials!”
“Holy crap, then you’ll be able to upgrade to a Level 2 ‘Magic Hut’ soon?!”
“I’m still missing one magic material, one fruit for one magic material, interested parties contact me!”
“I got a ‘Magic Cookware’ crafting blueprint! Worship me! Hahahaha!”
“Upstairs, you have a pot, but is there anything to eat in that pot?”
“That’s a harsh insult, hahahaha!”
“If I don’t have food, do you?”
“‘Berries’ * 224, just a small amount, barely enough to not starve...”
“Hahahaha!”
“Hahahaha!”
“Big shot, awesome! Where did you get so many berries? They’re both edible and hydrating!”
“My tent is right in a berry bush, and I even saw a turkey. I guess I’ll have chicken to eat tomorrow!”
“666!”
“666!”
...
Jiang Xun only glanced at it and stopped looking.
Most of the people still chatting in the group at this time probably knew that their upgrades were hopeless for today.
And those who had the ability to upgrade were undoubtedly racing against time to collect materials.
These people were his target customers!
Then, he opened the 【trade channel】.
However, he found that the channel was already flooded with dense messages:
Countless people had pulled out their best hidden treasures.
All trade demands were for “raw stone” and “raw wood.”
This clearly indicated their intention to gamble for a higher ranking!
It seemed there were quite a few smart people!
Jiang Xun scrolled for a while and indeed found many good things:
【Name: World Horn (No Grade)】
Effect: Grants one additional opportunity to speak in the world channel and pins the message for 1 hour.
Remarks: Only exchanges for basic materials, welcome private messages.
【Name: Magic Chocolate (Firefly)】
