Chapter 309: Happiness Base

The supermarket was set up one kilometer away from Happiness Base.

The distance was a bit far, but considering the supermarket was both large and high, it was quickly discovered by the people of Happiness Base.

"Gold Seeker" Feiyun was the first person to enter the supermarket.

Feiyun had come prepared to the supermarket, and he was a worldly and knowledgeable man, or so he thought. Before arriving, he felt that no matter how preposterous the contents of the big house, he wouldn’t be too surprised. However, when he actually entered and gazed at the vast array of goods in the supermarket, he couldn’t help but gape in astonishment.

If the people from Happiness Base saw this, they would probably be incredibly surprised.

He was, after all, "Gold Seeker" Feiyun, the one who wouldn’t be amazed by any number of resources, "Gold Seeker" Feiyun.

"Welcome, feel free to browse," Su Yinhe said, spiritedly open for business, while also observing the first customer.

And Chi Yan and Lin Murong were sitting on either side of her.

Chi Yan was being sticky, clutching her hand, while Lin Murong cupped his face with both hands, also watching the new customer.

Feiyun, hearing the voice, startled and turned his head to see the three seated people, and involuntarily took a step back.

These three...

Feiyun regretted that he had just lost his composure.

He had actually lost his composure.

He was so engrossed in looking at all the goods that he hadn’t even noticed there were three people here.

Feiyun took a deep breath, then calmed himself down.

"How do I make a purchase?"

"Please look at the sign next to you, it has the information," this time, before Su Yinhe could speak, Lin Murong was eagerly attending to the customer.

He even mimicked Su Yinhe’s tone.

Su Yinhe glanced at him, but Lin Murong didn’t notice.

Feiyun covertly sized them up, his mind having already raced through various thoughts, yet he kept a composed facade.

"Okay, thank you."

"Don’t mention it, don’t mention it, it’s only right," Lin Murong smiled at him.

Lin Murong’s active enthusiasm was entirely because Feiyun was handsome, and he was dressed handsomely.

All in black, he looked clean and sharp.

It was love at first sight for Lin Murong.

For his clothes, that is.

Su Yinhe couldn’t help but give him another couple of glances.

But Lin Murong was still gazing intently at Feiyun.

Even as Feiyun was seriously examining the sign, he didn’t forget to spare a bit of awareness for them, staying vigilant at all times.

Thus, he was aware of Lin Murong’s gaze.

A shudder ran through Feiyun; he confirmed that the items here were indeed not so easy to acquire.

Probably what was written on this sign was just to deceive people.

In reality...

It would be impossible to buy anything with just a few Crystal Cores.

Who didn’t know nowadays that Crystal Cores weren’t valuable?

A basket of Crystal Cores wouldn’t even be enough to buy the smallest mutant potato.

But as a "Gold Seeker," what Feiyun had in abundance was courage.

So, he bravely took out the Crystal Cores he had on him and exchanged them for money.

Ready to go in and shop.

He was ready to adapt to circumstances.

Although he didn’t know what kind of trap there might be, at least the resources were real; no matter what, he had to figure out a way to get them.

When Feiyun first entered the supermarket and saw the resources on the shelves, he was already amazed.

But only after he truly entered did he find out that what he had seen was just the tip of the iceberg.

Feiyun’s Crystal Core level was quite high, so he exchanged them for a substantial amount of money. Looking at the prices marked under the goods, he walked along and grabbed a shopping cart.

Then, he just couldn’t control himself anymore, frantically throwing items into the cart, more and more...

As he grabbed item after item, he realized that he was already touching them, so why...

Su Yinhe watched this customer, who had started off shopping normally, then began to tear open packaging and eat right on the spot.

She looked at the surveillance footage and then at Lin Murong, her expression complex, "There’s actually someone more gluttonous and impatient than you."

Lin Murong: "???"

What does this have to do with him?

Lin Murong felt utterly innocent.

Why was everything somehow connected to him?

"Galaxy, don’t hate me too much."

"She doesn’t hate you," Chi Yan joined in from the side. As always, love made him possessive, and he wouldn’t allow anyone to receive too much of Su Yinhe’s affection.

Not even hate was allowed.

After all, isn’t there a saying that hate is an emotion stronger than love?

Lin Murong: "...Are you sick or something?"

Lin Murong truly thought Chi Yan might be seriously ill. If only he could actually beat him, he would have hurled a few more insults.

But he really couldn’t win.

Lin Murong could only mute his microphone.

Feiyun kept eating, forgetting the vigilance he was supposed to maintain. As a "Gold Seeker," he should never lose his guard while "seeking gold," no matter what.

But perhaps it was because the food was so delicious.

Feiyun ate and ate until all sense of caution was completely forgotten.

It wasn’t until he was so full he felt nauseous that he realized what he had done.

Then came the wave of after-dread.

When Feiyun finally left with his bag, he was sheepish—

Well, he should be sheepish.

"He actually brought his empty bag to check out," Lin Murong commented, propping his chin, as he watched.

"Isn’t that perfectly normal?" Su Yinhe retorted.

Truth be told, in her world, many people did this.

However, those who did were usually shameless. The ones who cared about face wouldn’t do this.

"He’s just afraid he can’t afford the bill."

"Are you dumb? He just exchanged currency. He’s not oblivious to how much money he has and how much he can buy," Su Yinhe pondered about the intelligence level of Lin Murong’s brain.

"Then... he was so vigilant just now, not even afraid of us poisoning him."

Su Yinhe didn’t really want to answer that question; doing so would make her seem foolish.

So she too chose to mute her microphone.

Chi Yan: "..."

Lin Murong, childish.

When Feiyun was paying, he kept watching their group of three, ready to react at any moment if something was off.

But his bloated belly seemed to want to divert his attention.

Always trying to distract him.

Yet having been a "Gold Seeker" for a long time, Feiyun still had some self-control.

What he didn’t anticipate was that he would face no obstacles throughout the process.

He left the store in a daze.

Shit.

Those three must be playing the long game, planning to catch a bigger fish, right?

Otherwise, why didn’t they make a move?

They certainly wanted to attract more people and then catch them all in one swoop.

Otherwise, he must be dreaming.

Feiyun squeezed the item in his hand; damn, really so much stuff.

Just for some Crystal Cores, all this stuff.

It looked like he hit the jackpot "seeking gold" this time.

Feiyun didn’t stay happy for long before he realized that he wasn’t the only "Gold Seeker," and the news that the supermarket accepted Crystal Cores would spread quickly.

The population of Happiness Base was not small, the supermarket only so big, and if everyone came to shop, if he was late, he wouldn’t be able to buy anything, even with Crystal Cores.
