Enemies Are All Nourishment for My Fungi..

Chapter 254: Chapter 254 Heading to the Next City Secret Realm
 

Ye Nai went to get her car, which had a high-end aviation cabin fitted in the middle, and they also left space for her large computer desk. It was a snug fit; when she got tired and wanted to stand up and rest, she had to retract the desk back into Space, otherwise, she couldn’t even stand up.

After all, both of these were large items that took up a lot of space.

But Ye Nai liked it; when she needed a brief rest, the fully reclining aviation seat became an instant small bed.

There were lighter options too. Switching to a laptop would do— the cabin’s built-in small side panel had strong load-bearing capacity, strong enough to hold a professional’s toolbox, and folding tables were installed throughout the vehicle, allowing her to place small items within easy reach.

The kitchen, as per her request, was positioned at the back, replacing an old fridge with a sizeable L-shaped countertop, taking up a bit of the bathroom’s space. The remaining space was just enough for the head of the lying-down seat and for moving around the kitchen at will. Furthermore, this countertop could be extended with a pull-out section that formed an enclosed layout.

Ye Nai only needed the kitchen’s drainage, so she did away with the clean water tank and the waste water tank. The water needed for the faucet came from a 20-liter square water tank tucked inside the cabinet under the sink; she had plenty of clean water in her Space and could refill it anytime.

The place where the water tank was supposed to be on the vehicle now uniformly held three waste water tanks, connected by water pipes, mainly using the vehicle’s original drain, with a switch that could be opened wherever there was a place to dump water.

When she suggested this modification, the salesperson opposite her thought she was a Water Element Awakener who didn’t lack water. Although it was strange that she didn’t want a bathroom, they didn’t ask, emphasizing that the one paying had the final say.

The electrical circuits weren’t heavily modified; she just installed several extra sockets, solving all power issues with a civilian nuclear battery. Finally, she equipped the roof and rear of the vehicle with a luggage rack and climbing ladder, respectively.

She didn’t want a skylight, fearing that it might leak, and she also looked down on circular sky curtains, finding them time-consuming to install and pack away. She kept only the vehicle’s original sunshade, which, for her, solved the problem of not being able to exit the vehicle during windy and rainy weather. Just buying a rain shelter with an effective height of three meters was sufficient.

With an overall height less than three meters, her vehicle didn’t worry about urban height restrictions and could freely navigate through city areas.

If the weather were to turn extremely stormy or even snowy, she could take refuge in a Secret Realm.

Once the new vehicle was registered, Ye Nai prepared to set off. Before leaving, she went to the wholesale market to restock on daily necessities, bought a thousand cubic meters of clean water at the water plant, and then went to the sewage treatment plant to dump the wastewater and clean the water tank.

The plan to purchase a backup large-scale engineering and agricultural vehicle was still on hold. She decided to take a look elsewhere, as the leading enterprises were located in different cities, so there was no need to spend all her money in Five Bridges.

In the end, following the meat-buying list sent by her mother, she shipped her a large box of Mutant Beast beef.

When Five Bridges City was facing a crisis, her mother had wanted her to go back to East Ridge and find a man to marry. The next day, more than ten male and female colleagues came to buy beef from her, and her mother dropped the subject, acting as if she had never mentioned it.

Knowing how fickle her mother could be, Ye Nai didn’t take it to heart. She even let her mother keep the money from selling the meat, rather than having it sent to herself. She only charged for the delivery fee, or sent it cash on delivery.

Due to the reemergence of the enemy, sparking fears of renewed conflict, it was certain that property prices in the safe East Ridge were about to surge. Perhaps one day, her mother would accuse her of instigating the sale of the house and the divorce, losing their original property. Having some money on hand would help her mother live more peacefully.

Her mother chose cash on delivery.

Ye Nai preferred it that way; the less she dealt with the money, the better.

After checking out of the hotel, Ye Nai started the pickup RV and set off on her journey.

She planned to follow the national map of Secret Realm distribution, starting from the east, heading north all around the country in a circle, and if it was possible, she would step out of the country for a spin.

The nearest destination was called Sky Smoke City, and the Secret Realm was naturally called the Sky Smoke Secret Realm.

But in fact, the name of the Secret Realm came first, followed by the city’s name.

Because this Secret Realm was a world filled with dense fog and extremely heavy moisture with very low visibility. One must wear goggles before entering to prevent any animals’ claws from suddenly appearing out of the fog and striking at their face.

Such a Secret Realm with distinct features was thus granted the honor of naming, and the city was built around the Secret Realm to attract Awakeners and ordinary people to settle and make money.

A special Secret Realm would naturally produce unique mutant beasts.

The birds and beasts mainly had Water Element characteristics, able to perfectly hide their forms in the fog to launch surprise attacks on their prey. Once a significant wound was inflicted, the prey would bleed uncontrollably, and the predator would stop attacking, waiting leisurely at the side. When the prey bled out, the predator would take it away to eat.

The medicinal plants for stopping bleeding were actually local mutant plants, which were incredibly compatible, but in a place shrouded in thick fog everywhere, finding a mutant plant was harder than ascending to heaven.

Because hunting was difficult, the average price of the game produced here was also relatively high.

Ye Nai wanted to rush to Copper Level as soon as possible, so she naturally set her sights on the Sky Smoke Secret Realm, a Secret Realm where she could earn more.

Two Secret Realms were said to be adjacent, but there were actually towns and villages between them, and road conditions were not good without a direct highway. Native mutant animals and plants of Blue Star frequently emerged unexpectedly to block the way.

Ye Nai moved on and off, and it took almost ten days for her to finally reach Sky Smoke City.

Don’t mention it, driving an RV was indeed comfortable, especially in the wilderness. When tired, she would return to the Secret Realm with the vehicle to rest, and even spent nights there, avoiding the towns and villages along the way.

During this period, her mother sent another message about buying meat. Ye Nai told her to wait, saying that once she arrived in Sky Smoke City, she would buy some local specialties for her.

Once she sent this message, her mother’s barrage of texts hit her, asking why she wasn’t staying in Five Bridges City, what she was doing in Sky Smoke City if she was gone, what about the wild buffalo meat, she had just established a connection at work, a deal worth ten to twenty thousand was at hand; wasn’t the business going to go south?

Ye Nai ignored her mother. Since she was buying clean and cheap Mutant Beast Meat from her, she should know that she controlled the supply channel, not that her “daughter could buy mutant beast meat from another city.”

Her mother didn’t understand, but her colleagues weren’t fools. The price was much lower than the market price, and that was including the cost of express shipping and the purchasing commission, yet it was still cheaper. The quality of the meat was guaranteed. Anyone with a brain could figure out that this was the price from a Level 1 supplier. It was with such prices that her mother managed to start a side business in her workplace and had her leaders and colleagues as customers.

Ye Nai didn’t argue with her mother over the phone and simply replied to her to collect the money and prepare the orders, and that she would send over wild buffalo meat as soon as she got to Sky Smoke City.

Now, having arrived in Sky Smoke City, she sent a message to her mother, signaling that it was time to do business.

Not long after, she received two screenshots on her phone, one requesting wild buffalo meat, the other asking for specialties from the Sky Smoke Secret Realm. Exactly what types of meat and how much of each were listed out, and the total amount was quite large. It was nearly New Year’s Day, and after that would be the Chinese New Year; preparations to stock up were beginning.
