Qi Xu didn’t need much else, but since he had just earned a decent amount of Survival Coins, he felt like spending some. After all, with his backpack’s capacity, the more supplies he had, the easier survival would be on the Highway of Survival. Who knew when some bizarre item might come in handy? So, Qi Xu bought a few more things.
【Survival Brand Pen: Write with our Survival Brand Pen, and your handwriting will look beautiful! Plus, it enhances memory retention, making it easier to memorize whatever you write. 30 Survival Coins】
If only he could take this pen back to his school days—no more fear of teachers randomly calling on him to recite passages...
【White Rabbit Milk Candy ×999: Each 100 grams provides approximately 400-500 kcal of energy, perfect for quick replenishment during hunger or high energy consumption. 99 Survival Coins】
【Universal WiFi ×1: Connect freely to the internet. 99 Survival Coins】
【Oven: Craving a delicious cake? Buy me, buy me, buy me! 60 Survival Coins】
Qi Xu did the math—he currently had 1,341 Survival Coins, and these items totaled 438...
It felt a bit pricey, but... wasn’t making money meant for spending? Buy! The only regret was that the Fox Family VIP card was non-transferable—otherwise, he could’ve gotten an extra 20% off.
Blessed by Luck was stunned.
“Big shot... you... are seriously loaded. I’m crying with envy. My nickname should belong to you instead—no, wait, you’re not just lucky, you’re also insanely skilled.”
Blessed by Luck took the payment and quickly purchased and delivered the items...
Just as he was wallowing in envy, a system notification suddenly chimed!
He received a... work permit!
【Proxy Shopper: Visit the Monster Store once a week. If you complete a proxy shopping transaction, you’ll earn 10% of the transaction value in Survival Coins!】
Blessed by Luck’s breathing quickened with excitement... Sniffle, Cyclone Big Shot, you’re my lucky charm!
Before joining the Survival Game, he couldn’t find a job. Now, inside the game, he lands one... Who would’ve believed it?
Qi Xu sent Blessed by Luck a thank-you gift—a hemostatic bandage and a fruit assortment.
Blessed by Luck refused to accept it and even sent back a big bag of sunflower seeds.
“Thanks for trusting me with the proxy shopping, Big Shot! I triggered a work permit, sniffle... Please keep using me for purchases in the future! I promise I won’t get greedy!”
Though Blessed by Luck didn’t spell it out, Qi Xu understood—it was probably some sales or proxy shopping perk, likely triggered by purchasing items above a certain value.
Cool. Truly living up to the name “Blessed by Luck”—that luck was legit. Perfect timing too, since Qi Xu needed it, and he/she was already at the Monster Store.
Invincible Black Cyclone: “Alright, then I won’t stand on ceremony.”
Blessed by Luck: “Hahaha, thanks again!”
After obtaining the Tracking Card, Qi Xu didn’t hesitate for a second—he immediately locked onto “Chief Beauty Officer.”
No matter what, he was going to eliminate these two disgusting individuals today. He didn’t want any more trouble.
Once the Parallel Highway appeared, Qi Xu prepared for battle—Pink Chainsaw, pistol, and anesthesia ring all equipped.
Not far ahead, he spotted a bus parked by the roadside...
A bus?! That was a rare and high-maintenance vehicle, and this one even came with a built-in work permit!
If you allowed players or monsters to board, it would automatically transform you into a bus driver, letting you collect fares.
Qi Xu was now incredibly glad he’d come. No wonder Chief Beauty Officer suddenly had so much confidence—his vehicle had upgraded to a mini-bus.
This vehicle looked expensive, and after splurging at the Monster Store, Qi Xu was feeling the pinch. So, he deliberately didn’t pull out his pistol right away.
Chief Beauty Officer was startled by the appearance of the Parallel Highway. His first thought was that Old White Dragon in the Waves had come after him—given his short temper and zero tolerance for nonsense.
But he’d already apologized—what more did they want?! It wasn’t until he saw the pink vehicle and a vaguely feminine figure in the driver’s seat that he relaxed slightly, though he remained cautious.
He quickly grabbed his weapon and boarded the bus.
“Hey, are you Chief Beauty Officer?”
Qi Xu had already stashed all his weapons, planning to take an unconventional approach—after all, that bus was seriously tempting.
“Who are you? Why did you use a Tracking Card on me?”
Chief Beauty Officer saw a girl who looked gentle and pretty, with decent strength or luck—her vehicle was at least Level 3 or 4.
“You’re not even that handsome. Your girlfriend said you were as good-looking as Wu Yanzi, pfft.” Qi Xu even batted her eyes and whistled.
Chief Beauty Officer’s face darkened. He knew exactly who this was—his girlfriend must’ve summoned her. Even in a survival game, she couldn’t stop stirring up drama. Served her right if she died...
But this girl was undeniably beautiful.
Chief Beauty Officer wasn’t bad-looking himself. He tilted his head slightly and chuckled in a low voice, “Little sister, was it really worth wasting a Tracking Card just to see what I look like?”
Qi Xu nodded seriously. “Of course! Tracking Cards aren’t that rare. Want to grab a drink? Linlin won’t know~”
She picked up a glass of red wine, propped her chin on her hand, and swirled the liquid...
Chief Beauty Officer had once mentioned his girlfriend’s nickname in a small group chat. Qi Xu had just asked Qiuqiu to dig up the records and check.
After all... she needed to lure him out of the vehicle before making her move.
Chief Beauty Officer hesitated but eventually stepped off the bus, though he kept a sleeping pill in hand and a dagger tucked at his waist.
The moment he turned around, Qi Xu’s smile vanished.
Seriously? This was the guy who supposedly doted on his girlfriend? Pathetic.
Qi Xu leaned against the doorframe, watching as Chief Beauty Officer sprinted through the pouring rain toward her.
Smiling, she raised her pistol and fired a single shot.
At a distance, Qi Xu’s aim was shaky—three shots might not even hit. But at less than a meter? Piece of cake.
She couldn’t be bothered to ask about the “Wintergreen Tree” incident. Whether it was his girlfriend’s idea or his, they were both cut from the same cloth—no two people sleeping in the same bed could be that different.
If Chief Beauty Officer had truly been as upright, loyal, and devoted as he claimed, Qi Xu might’ve felt a twinge of guilt. But now? Nothing.
She dragged his body toward the black fog, but just before tossing him in, she noticed a shiny card tucked in his chest.
Pulling it out, she stared. Well, well...
