Surviving in Another Dimension: I Can See Hints - Chapter 7

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After returning to the small courtyard, the construction worker, Valentine, was directing the three silly farmers to work hard to build a stove.

This was the mission Wang Jue had previously assigned. The construction was to be completed before nightfall, so that it was in time for dinner.

They greeted Wang Jue when they saw him.

Wang Jue nodded back with a smile.

Wang Jue found an empty space in the courtyard and prepared to build the Gushing Spirit Well right away.

After all, only the small courtyard had defensive capabilities right now. It was also safer and more convenient.

Wang Jue opened the blueprint and tapped to use it.

[System notification: Gushing Spirit Well (Special Structure)]

[Requirement: Gushing Spirit Well Blueprint x1]

[Countdown: 8 hours]

An illusory outline of a well appeared in front of Wang Jue.

With a thought, it landed on the ground.

An emerald green light suddenly lit up.

In the next moment, the ground caved in to form into two circular pits of about two square meters. Immediately after, a large amount of green vines shot up into the sky from within.

The vines continued to grow, twist and twine.

A few minutes later, a structure completely made of vines took shape.

Wang Jue took a glance at the panel, the Gushing Spirit Well would be completed by tomorrow morning.

Following that, Wang Jue summoned the remaining two soldiers and instructed them to guard the area tonight.

This was a treasure, nothing must happen to it.

Presently, Wang Jue recalled the recruitment scroll he had just obtained. Is there a faster way to earn gold coins?

Wang Jue wanted to try the trading function in the system and see if he could exchange his current supplies for some gold coins.

Let’s do it.

Wang Jue opened the interface and entered the trading platform.

There were people who had begun to exchange items here.

“So many people need water?”

Wang Jue went around and found that almost all the requests were asking for water and food.

After some thought, Wang Jue felt relieved.

It was a survival game after all. Food was the number one priority and also most scarce.

“No one is trading coins.”

He thought for a moment and said in his heart , “Break down two 300ml drinking water.”

He was planning to put 600ml of water onto the trading market for gold coins.

Water could be traded, but the bamboo tube had to be kept.

As for how the trader would drink, it was none of his business.

[System notification: Water+400ml]

[System notification: Bamboo Tube x1]

On the trading channel.

[Seller: Wang Jue 182.23]

[Item: 300ml Drinking Water]

[Demand: 30 Gold Coins]

[Alternative: Special materials]

[Quantity: 2]

Wang Jue had just posted his items when the chat exploded.

“Holy sh*t. Someone’s posted a deal for water.”

“Why is he only trading for gold coins? I only have 5 gold coins. Can we do crowdfunding? We’ll divide the amount of water after the transaction.”

“The aces have already started to trade water resources, and I’m still trembling in the beginner’s small courtyard…”

“Water is a scarce resource. I haven’t even seen a drop of it in the market today, yet this person is willing to trade!”

“Don’t talk nonsense on the world channel! I want to make a deal with Boss Wang Jue privately.”

Everyone was shocked.

It had been less than a day since the universal transmigration. Only five or six hours had passed since noon. Most of the people were still in a state of confusion, not knowing where to start.

Some quick-witted people had gone out to gather resources and began the basic construction. However, the outside world was full of dangers, and very few people actually obtained resources.

Imagine how precious a drop of water was in a boundless desert. Would anyone exchange water for money?

The answer was no!

Unless this person was a reckless fool, or, he had found a lake with an endless supply of water.

The people in the chat didn’t know which kind of person Wang Jue was, but it was undeniable that Wang Jue’s name was beginning to spread throughout the chat channels.

While almost everyone was discussing him, on the other side, more and more people were privately messaging Wang Jue through the trading channel.

“Brother Wang, can I exchange 100 pieces of stones for your water?”

“Big brother, do you want iron blocks? I’ll give all I have for your water. I haven’t had any water for a day!”

“Brother, I want water. Can you give it to me? I can promise you anything!”

“Brother, I have countless assets. Give me the water. When we return to the original world, I’ll give you 100 million dollars!”

“Brother Wang, I was lucky to find an intermediate self-defense weapon. Can I use it to trade with you?”

…

Not one person had 50 gold coins.

There were countless private messages from all kinds of people.

Among them, there were some celebrities and high-ranking officials whom Wang Juecheng was familiar with, and even the wealthiest people.

There were begging, threats, promises, seduction, and more.

However, Wang Jue didn’t care about all that.

Here, everyone is equal. Without what I need, they can forget about trading!

Who knows if we can ever return to the real world or… remain alive!

Wang Jue looked at the numerous private messages. None of them had what he wanted, and nor were there anyone with special resources.

He closed the chat channel and took the opportunity to rest.

After about two hours, there was still no one who could trade.

Presently, the sky was almost completely dark.

“The stove is fixed. It’s time to cook.

“But why aren’t Karl and the others back yet?”

Wang Jue walked to the stove and felt a vague sense of unease.

He started cooking.

After the farmers set up the fire, Wang Jue took out the ingredients and began to make lizard barbecue.

[Barbecue]

[Requirement: Wood x1, Meat x1]

[Seasoning: None]

[Production Time: 1 hour]

Wang Jue submitted eight portions of lizard meat and eight portions of wood at one go and began the production.

Soon, the aroma of the meat juices wafted through the air.

The few people smelled the fragrance and swallowed their saliva at the same time.

An hour later.

In the sky, the last traces of the sunset had completely disappeared.

Night fell, and the stars twinkled in the sky. The silvery-white crescent moon hung high above their heads.

Night was the home ground of wild beasts. Wang Jue vaguely heard howls coming from the forest.

“Aah ooh…”

A shrill wolf howl sounded.

“Roar… ooh…”

The grassland was pitch black under the night sky.

It was like an abyssal maw that was devouring everything.

“Boom…”

After the howls, there was the thundering sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

Sounds echoed in the night sky, making it impossible to determine the exact location they were coming from.

The three farmers, and Valentine all looked terrified. Their tense bodies were clustered together.

Wang Jue looked outside with rapt attention.

He felt that there were many hidden eyes around his territory.

They seemed to be afraid of something and did not come close.

At this moment, a black shadow slowly passed through the night.

A pair of eyes appeared before everyone, followed by several figures.

The few figures moved very quickly, as if they were running at full speed. Soon, they arrived at the edge of the small courtyard.

“It’s the soldiers.”

The surprised voices of Datou and Santou sounded.

Carl, who had been out exploring the environment with three soldiers, had returned.

Wang Jue heaved a sigh of relief. They’re finally back!

“Overlord, Carl is back!”
