Blueprint for Fortified Walls, Auction

In the chat channel, there were still some people talking tough to Alex.

Number 10000: "10086, you better wait for me!!"

Number 10010: "Once I recover from this cold, I'll definitely break your bones, 10086!!"

Alex, focused on organizing the combat supplies in his backpack, lightly chuckled when he saw the tough talk in the chat channel.

Number 10086: "Hmm, I'll be waiting (smiling emoji)."

After sending the message, Alex closed the chat channel and paid it no more mind.

"Bottles of Molotov cocktails are enough, ten grenades, and iron animal traps, plenty of crossbow arrows..."

Alex tallied up his combat supplies.

For a moment, he realized he had the strength of an entire team.

At least compared to another team in the villa area, as long as he was given enough time to set up, it wouldn't be a problem to take them down single-handedly.

Just as Alex was about to close the system and rest, an advertisement popped up on the trading platform.

[Breaking news! A golden-tier blueprint has appeared on the trading platform: Fortified Walls (this blueprint is the first golden-tier item on this trading platform)]

Alex's heart immediately burned with excitement.

Just when he was worrying about how to evade zombie invasions in the villa area, now, if he could obtain this fortified walls blueprint, that problem would be solved.

Alex immediately clicked on the trading platform, found the golden-tier blueprint, and muttered to himself, "This time, I'm determined to get it!!"

As soon as this golden-tier blueprint appeared, it shocked the entire chat channel in the post-apocalyptic world.

They didn't expect that, just within a week of arriving in this post-apocalyptic world, someone had already found a golden-tier item.

Not to mention golden-tier, even silver-tier items were rarely seen; usually, they were bronze-tier.

In the chat channel, many people were green with envy.

Number 546262: "How is this possible! This must be another scam! I've never seen anyone with such outrageous luck! How could they, how could they... Ah, I'm so jealous!!"

Number 15424: "Yeah, yeah, how could someone come across such a good item? Fortified walls! If you find a shelter, just activate the walls, how beautiful would that be, what are zombies anyway, I'll just block them outside."

Number 345345: "Holy crap! He's put it up for auction, is he really going to sell it?! But the price is so high, starting bid is one thousand essential living supplies, and each bid increases by 50 supplies, I can't afford it..."

Amidst the lamentations, many groups were eyeing this fortified walls blueprint.

They had long since located shelters, and this blueprint appeared quite timely.

In another villa area, a muscular man, shirtless and full of vigor, was eyeing the blueprint on the trading platform. He pushed away the woman beside him, whom he had just vented with, his eyes burning with determination.

"Fortified walls, I'm getting it! Whoever dares to compete with me, I'll kill them!!"

The strong man put on his clothes, went downstairs, and began rallying his team's partners, gathering supplies, preparing to participate in the auction.

...

In a signal station, many people surrounded a handsome man, quietly waiting for him to give orders.

"Daniel, as soon as you give the word, we'll immediately gather resources and participate in the auction. Or, we could find that player..."

A man in all black beside him asked in a low voice, while simultaneously making a throat-slitting gesture with his hand.

The handsome man waved his hand and took a sip of wine.

"No need, this golden blueprint is definitely coveted by more than just our faction. It's impossible to snipe the seller, the system is quite thorough in protecting against that. Besides, I, Daniel Harris, am not someone who resorts to any means to achieve his goals. Old Ma, prepare the supplies and participate in the bidding."

The man in black beside Daniel bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, Daniel, I'll go gather the brothers to prepare supplies and get ready for the auction, I'll do my best to help Daniel get the golden blueprint!"

Daniel sneered, looking very confident.

He had plenty of essential supplies in hand.

He didn't believe anyone could outmatch him.

Those players out there in the chaotic world were probably still worrying about their next meal, who could compete with him?

Ethan, who was in the same villa area as Alex, was also eyeing this golden-tier blueprint.

Although the number of zombies in their villa area was now quite low, he had already noticed Alex's footsteps.

If other players came over, he wasn't confident he could stop them.

But with the fortified walls blueprint, all those problems would vanish.

Their team could withstand any future zombie tide and fend off the covetous eyes of many players.

However, after just experiencing a major battle, they simply didn't have enough supplies to participate in the auction.

Ethan sighed in frustration, and hammered the marble coffee table.

After all, for them, this item was too important!

In the chat channel, the golden-tier fortified walls blueprint also attracted many lone survivors.

Number 46543: "Hey, who do you think will end up buying this golden-tier blueprint?"

Number 254318: "Well, I can't speak for others, but in our East district, there's a team led by Benjamin, claiming to be the largest faction in the East district. They just occupied the villa area, so I think they'll definitely participate in the bidding, with a high chance of success!"

Number 45538: "Hey! Speaking of large factions, we have to mention Daniel from our South district! Our Daniel is kind-hearted, never harms players, and gathers only destitute players who lack supplies. In just a few days, they took over a signal station shelter in our area through Daniel's strategy and are now very strong! I think Daniel has a chance too!"

Number 451846: "I wonder if there's a possibility that player number 10086 seems quite capable. Do you think he'll participate in the bidding?"

Number 10010: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!! No matter how many resources 10086 has, he definitely won't be able to put up so many to participate in the bidding! After all, others are all part of a group, while he's currently just one person. Rich as a kingdom? Don't make me laugh. If he succeeds in the bidding, I'll eat zombie meat on the spot!!"

Number 10000: "Exactly, what's player 10086 even worth! At most, he can offer some blankets, and he's thinking of joining the bidding for a golden-tier blueprint? Hahaha, don't be ridiculous. He probably couldn't even gather enough to meet the entry requirement of one hundred essential living supplies!"

As people were discussing fervently, the auction began.

Benjamin, Daniel, and others submitted their deposits to the auction house, along with some unknown forces, including Alex.

When Alex entered the auction interface, he was surprised to find that there were dozens of buyers.

Obviously, contrary to what was being said in the chat channel, there were quite a few people who could put up auction items.

The apocalypse had just begun less than a week ago, but many people had already started banding together for warmth.

It couldn't be ruled out that some people also had massive amounts of resources.

But Alex quickly dismissed the second guess.

After all, his abundant resources were largely thanks to the infinite system, which others were unlikely to have.
