Supply System

Galen Veritas followed beside the ox cart, hearing his young master Magnus Valorion suddenly mention something about "binding." Confused, he asked, "Young master, do you want me to bind something?"

Magnus, excited, quickly explained, "Nothing, nothing, I wasn't talking to you just now!" Galen was even more puzzled, looking around to find that there were only the two of them in the wilderness. If Magnus wasn't talking to him, then who could he be talking to? It couldn't be ghosts in broad daylight, right?

He couldn't help but worry, "Could it be that the young master has gone mad from anxiety after being demoted and framed?" He looked at Magnus nervously, secretly deciding, "Once we reach Green River Town, I must find a doctor to properly check the young master's condition."

However, Magnus was too focused on checking the functions of his newly bound system to notice Galen's expression. "Ding~ Host Magnus Valorion has successfully bound to the Ultimate Supply System! You are now awarded three beginner lottery chances. Would you like to participate in the draw now?" This time, Magnus did not shout excitedly but silently agreed in his mind, "Participate in the draw!"

In the next moment, a 3D projection of a lottery wheel divided into twelve segments appeared before him. The segments included rice, wheat, potatoes, pumpkins, medicinal pills, vegetables, and more. What caught Magnus's eye the most was the AK-47, a symbol of equality under the fire. He silently prayed, hoping to win the AK-47.

After a sincere prayer, Magnus started the first draw in his mind. The wheel began to spin, and he silently chanted, "Stop~" The wheel gradually slowed down. "AK-47, AK-47, I must get that AK-47!" An excited Magnus even started pounding on the wooden board of the ox cart.

Magnus's actions convinced Galen even more that the young master had gone mad. Tears involuntarily streamed down his face. Such a loyal person was entirely at odds with his treacherous appearance.

The wheel stopped on the first draw, and the pointer landed on Korean Kimchi. Magnus cursed the system a thousand times in his heart, "Damn it..." He cursed out loud, "What's the use of Korean Kimchi at a time like this? System, why didn't you give me a cheese fondue instead?"

The system retorted unceremoniously, "Host, if your luck is bad, who can you blame but yourself? Please continue with the second beginner draw!" Magnus reluctantly accepted reality and prepared for the second draw. The segment that previously read "Kimchi" had changed to something else. He held his breath and restarted the wheel.

Magnus watched the lottery wheel intensely. The segment that had just read "Kimchi" now showed "Barefoot Doctor's Manual." He was shocked and thought, "I'm headed to Green River Town, where ancient medical conditions are limited. If I get this 'Barefoot Doctor's Manual,' it would be highly beneficial."

Thinking this, a glimmer of hope rose in Magnus's heart, "System, start the draw!"

The wheel spun rapidly, and Magnus held his breath, silently chanting "Stop!" The pointer slowly stopped on "Rice." Disappointment and helplessness filled his heart, and he sighed, "What's the use of rice now? System, at least give me some healing medicine for my injured backside!"

However, recalling the hard, earthy, black pancake he had eaten earlier, Magnus felt relieved that he at least got some white rice. "Oh well, at least I can eat something tasty!"

As he thought this, the text on the lottery segment changed again to "Yunnan Baiyao." Magnus was so excited that he started shivering on the ox cart. This time, instead of praying to gods and deities, he silently prayed to the system, "System lord, please let me win the Yunnan Baiyao!"

Perhaps he was on the right track, as Magnus won the Yunnan Baiyao on the third draw. This Yunnan Baiyao is a famous external medicine from Yunnan, made from various precious herbs, and is known for its ability to stop bleeding, relieve pain, detoxify, and reduce swelling.

Before Magnus could ask how to retrieve the Yunnan Baiyao, a property interface popped up from the system. The interface was simple and clear, with only some basic information:

Host: Magnus Valorion

Gender: Male

Money: 37 copper coins

Reputation: 53/100

System Warehouse: 3/7 (upgradable)

Current Supplies: Rice, Korean Kimchi, Yunnan Baiyao

Magnus felt his pockets and found no copper coins, thinking they must be with Galen. He understood all the other attributes except for the "Reputation."

"System lord, what is this 'Reputation'?" Magnus asked curiously.

The system responded, "Reputation refers to the positive influence of the host's actions on others. As long as the host's actions inspire admiration, respect, reverence, or loyalty in others, the reputation will increase."

Hearing the system's explanation, Magnus understood immediately. The "Reputation" was essentially a measure of how many people were loyal to him. For the system, this reputation was equivalent to his progress bar for upgrades.

However, Magnus didn't expect his starting reputation to be a solid 50-plus. This meant that besides Galen, there were over 50 others who had been influenced or benefited by him.

After winning the Yunnan Baiyao, Magnus eagerly asked, "System lord, how do you give me the Yunnan Baiyao?"

The system responded, "Just think about where and how much you want, and the system will project it for you."

"What? You can specify the quantity?" Magnus was shocked. He secretly asked the system, "Can I have unlimited rice and kimchi too?"

Expecting to be denied, the system instead replied, "As long as you specify the exact location, and no one else sees it, the system can generate it."

"So, I can have unlimited rice, kimchi, and Yunnan Baiyao?" Magnus was both surprised and delighted.

"Correct," the system replied concisely.

Hearing this, Magnus laughed heartily. Galen, pulling the ox cart, looked at his young master with pity, tears the size of beans rolling down his cheeks. He felt heartbroken, thinking, "The young master is so pitiful. A nobleman on the battlefield, now driven mad by that corrupt official Alp Arslan."

Magnus was so happy because he had seen a post online before crossing over. The post asked if providing white porridge and pickled vegetables to ancient laborers would prevent them from rebelling. Most netizens denied it.

Some even joked that as long as there was enough white porridge and pickled vegetables, with thick porridge and oily vegetables, not only would they not rebel, but they would even build the Great Wall to the stars without a word of complaint.

Others jested that if forced labor had such treatment, the workers would create legendary tales and, with a single call to arms, would rise up, defeat the emperor, and put the one who provided them on the throne.

Though Magnus never thought of becoming an emperor, he envisioned the potential of the system, dreaming of having millions of followers in the future. However, the excruciating pain in his wound brought him back to reality.

"System, quickly give me some Yunnan Baiyao."

The system responded immediately, and a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao appeared out of nowhere in Magnus's arms. He marveled at the system's magic.

"Galen, stop the ox cart!" Magnus called to the cautious Galen.

Galen quickly wiped his tears and asked cautiously, "Young master, are you hungry again?" He reached for the uneaten black pancake.

Magnus immediately stopped him and took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, saying, "Galen, help me apply this medicine to the wound on my back."
