Chapter 92: Rise again!! My... little sister
[Resurrection Card]: Effect 1: If kept in the backpack, it takes effect automatically. After death, you may choose to revive at the spot or at a random location, and the vehicle will be teleported along with you.
Effect 2: Use directly to revive the dead. The memories after death will be erased.
(Note: Those whose souls have been slain cannot be revived.)
Damn. It was truly incredible.
With the substitution doll added to the mix, he now effectively held two lives in his hands.
He had always kept the substitution doll on the bed on the second floor. If anything truly went wrong, he would instantly return to the second floor.
Now, with this added, he could even flee with the vehicle itself.
Still, it would be best not to have to use it.
Then he looked at the other card.
[Duel]: After initiating a duel against a target, the challenged party may choose one of three modes: solo combat, group combat, or positional battle. The victor will obtain all of the loser’s supplies. Only the living may claim victory.
(Note: The initiator may also die. Use with caution.)
Resources, huh? That was a little mediocre.
Of all things, he had the most resources.
Even if he never obtained another supply crate, he could still live comfortably for three months without any problem, and that included living together with so many people.
Lin Mu turned the card over in his hand. “Does everyone in a convoy get one?”
“Mister Mu, can I discuss something with you?” Shu Yi’s excited voice came through the walkie-talkie.
It seemed his guess had been right.
“Go ahead.”
“I have a resurrection card. I want to bring my little sister back.”
As expected, every member of a squad had one. The others likely had cards too; the only question was whether the captives did.
“Think it through carefully. Once you use the card, it’s gone. And if your sister’s soul has been destroyed...”
“I believe our squad can stay in first place all the way. The rewards will definitely be even better.”
Lin Mu shook his head. How could something like this be handed out forever?
The reason they were giving out a card now was mainly because of Effect 1. If they wanted to get one again later, it probably would not be so easy.
“Decide for yourself. By the way, do the captives on your vehicle have cards?”
“No.”
So only the vehicle owner could obtain a card. It seemed there was no way to exploit a loophole.
Two minutes later, the voice from the sky rang out again.
“Feeling happy? The rewards are not over yet. Just now were the ranking rewards for each region. What comes next is the main event: the rankings of all convoys. Excited?
“Planet-wide rankings will still reward only the top one hundred, and the prizes are generous. Welcome your rewards.
“After this, weekly ranking rewards will be sent to you automatically by mail.”
This time, three cards appeared in Lin Mu’s hands.
[Vehicle Core Advancement Card (Bound)], [Vehicle Level Advancement Card (Bound)], and a [Convoy Advancement Card].
Huh?
That was it?
Advancing the vehicle core? He could do that himself with a little effort.
As for vehicle level advancement, that was also a simple matter.
Wasn’t it just materials? He had plenty of them, far more than he could ever use.
Lin Mu instantly lost interest.
As for the convoy advancement card, it was somewhat useful, but not very.
Maybe he should save it for later?
Lin Mu could not help but think that upgrading the vehicle in the future would definitely become difficult.
It was not fair to say these two cards were useless. They would certainly be useful later.
However, when he saw the card information, he knew he had no choice but to use them now.
[Vehicle Core Advancement Card (Bound)]: Can only be used to advance this vehicle core from Lv8 to Lv9.
Well played.
So that was what they had been waiting for.
No wonder the words bound were attached to it.
He had thought being bound meant only he could use it. It turned out not only could only he use it, he also had to use it now.
Lin Mu had no choice but to activate it.
[Vehicle core level increased to Lv9. Backpack capacity +500. Carrying capacity: 9 people.]
What a plain notification.
[Vehicle level increased to Lv10. The overall size of the vehicle space has doubled. Trait "Waste Utilization" effect increased by 50 percent. Second trait unlocked: "Turning Trash into Treasure."]
Lin Mu raised an eyebrow. This time, the rewards were indeed quite generous.
The Waste Utilization effect was useful to him, but no longer by much. He simply had too many resources to handle as it was.
[Turning Trash into Treasure]: Consume a certain amount of supplies to restore any item to perfect condition.
Lin Mu rubbed his chin. It sounded impressive, but he had nothing that needed repairing.
Another effect that could only be admired, not used.
Only one card remained. He might as well use it right away.
Ding! Convoy level increased to Lv2. Maximum人数 increased to 50. Convoy warehouse unlocked: 1,000 slots. Resource acquisition x1.
Sigh.
Useless. Completely useless.
And yet Lin Mu’s mouth kept spreading wider and wider, his expression one of disdain while his body was brutally honest.
He rubbed his slightly stiff cheeks and picked up the walkie-talkie.
“What did you get?”
“Vehicle Core Advancement Card and Vehicle Level Advancement Card.”
“Vehicle Core Advancement Card and Vehicle Level Advancement Card.”
“...”
It seemed that the convoy level card was only for the captain.
“In that case, use them yourselves.”
...
“Sis, Lin Mu is still the same as ever, isn’t he? He really is fun to talk to.” Shu Xin smiled at her sister.
At that moment, Shu Yi’s face was covered in tears. She had truly brought her little sister back to life.
“Yes, he really hasn’t changed at all. Later, have him give you a vehicle. From now on, you must stay behind me at all times.”
“That was just an accident last time. Who could have known there would be things out there at night?”
Shu Xin still had a vivid memory of her previous death, after all she had no memory of anything after dying.
To her, it had simply been that she was killed, closed her eyes, then opened them again on her sister’s vehicle.
Through Shu Yi’s explanation just now, she had already learned the general situation.
Shu Xin felt incredibly lucky. She really had come back to life.
Early the next morning, after finishing breakfast, Lin Mu walked out of the house to stretch his body.
At a glance, he saw Shu Xin and Shu Yi strolling together.
There was still some time before nine o’clock, and everyone was moving about freely in the area.
“Wow, Mister Mu, long time no see.”
“Ah, yes, yes, yes. It really has been a long time. You... after coming back to life, how does your body feel?”
He had not yet been resurrected himself, so he was rather curious.
“Pretty good. I don’t feel anything strange at all. In fact, I feel like my body is even better than before.”
As she spoke, Shu Xin hugged Shu Yi by the legs and lifted her up.
???
Huh?
What the hell?
Lin Mu saw it with his own eyes: she had lifted her sister up so effortlessly?
Had dying once and coming back turned her into a superhuman?
Ahem!
Subconsciously, Lin Mu took a small step back and moved to stand beside Zero Zero One.
“Have you looked at your personal information?”
Shu Xin shrugged. “I haven’t even really looked at my vehicle core yet.”
