Time flew by!
In just two hours, a pile of over 20 beast corpses had accumulated at Qin Feng's feet:
13 Level 3 beast corpses—obtained through trades.
11 Level 6 beast corpses—personally killed by him.
He had extracted every last resource from these corpses, reaping tremendous rewards.
Now, cigarette dangling from his lips, Qin Feng surveyed the bodies scattered across the ground.
For a while, no new beasts had appeared.
It seemed this area's beasts had been almost completely wiped out—it was time to move on.
Currently, Level 3 beasts consisted of five types. Qin Feng had reached his extraction limit for four of them, leaving only the White Fox, for which he needed one more.
For Level 6 beasts, there were four types. He had maxed out extraction for three of them and only needed two more Night Owls.
Originally, he planned to stay until he could extract all the Level 6 beasts, then move to the Level 7 zone.
But since no Night Owls had appeared for some time, he decided to change locations to track them down.
This resource wager had unlocked Level 1-10 maps and beast compendiums, providing key details about ordinary beasts.
However, the compendium did not include information on mutated beasts or king-tier beasts.
From the compendium, he knew there were five types of Level 3 beasts and four types of Level 6 beasts.
Exhaling a puff of smoke, Qin Feng flicked the cigarette butt into the fire.
He checked his level progress: Level 5 (2570/3000 EXP)—not far from reaching Level 6.
Next, he glanced at the leaderboard:
[91 Rookie Village Level Leaderboard]
Qin Feng – Level 5
Liu Xuan – Level 4
Long Shan – Level 4
Wu Yong – Level 3
Gu Ming – Level 3
Lei Yu – Level 3
Yu Wen – Level 3
…
Not bad! Not bad!
In the last two hours, both Liu Xuan and Long Shan had reached Level 4.
Additionally, 21 people had reached Level 3, while all players in the Top 100 were now Level 2.
Everyone was working hard, which pleased Qin Feng.
After all, these people were his fellow D Nation villagers, and he genuinely hoped they would grow stronger.
Following the resource wager incident, he suspected more such wagers might occur in the future.
Blue Star had no shortage of nations hostile toward D Nation.
With this in mind, Qin Feng switched to the chat channel, which remained lively despite the late hour.
Hardworking D Nation players filled the channel with chatter.
Without hesitation, Qin Feng sent two messages:
Qin Feng: "Starting now, only Level 3 White Fox corpses will be accepted. No other Level 3 beast corpses will be traded."
Qin Feng: "Trades for Level 4 and Level 5 beast corpses will continue. Reminder: Tier-1 Refined Steel Blades are limited—first come, first served!"
The chat channel exploded in excitement.
"Wow! Qin Feng spoke!"
"Oh my gosh! Seeing Qin Feng in chat is so exciting!"
"Wait, Qin Feng, you're only taking Level 3 White Fox corpses now? No more trades for other Level 3 beasts?"
"Aw man! I was just about to hunt another Level 3 beast to trade for some roast meat!"
"Hey, he made it clear—he needs Level 4 and Level 5 beast corpses now. Let's focus on those instead!"
"Haha! My team already hunted two Level 4 beasts. We just need one more to trade for a Tier-1 Steel Blade!"
"Your team is so efficient! My group spent forever just to kill one Level 4 beast!"
"Wow~! You guys are amazing, hunting Level 4 beasts like it's nothing!"
Qin Feng was gratified to see this.
Players were already hunting Level 4 beasts, saving him considerable time.
At that moment, a user named Gu Ming spoke up.
Gu Ming was a scholarly-looking middle-aged man who had consistently ranked in the Top 5 on the leaderboard.
Gu Ming: "Qin Feng, I just killed a Level 2 Mutated Beast and got a Black Iron Treasure Chest, which contained a Tier-1 item: a Resource Wager Token!"
The channel erupted again.
"What?! A Resource Wager Token!"
"That's amazing! Such a rare item!"
"Gu Ming, use it! Let's have another resource wager with another Rookie Village!"
"Yeah! I really want another resource wager. We could gain 20 more attribute points and double our resources again!"
"Haha! That's exactly what I was thinking. Last time was incredible—I want to do it again!"
"Hold on, what if we lose this time?"
"Haha! With Qin Feng here, how could we lose?"
"Gu Ming, are you saying you plan to use the token?"
Gu Ming: "No, I can't use it. The token has special requirements. I want to trade it to Qin Feng instead."
Qin Feng's interest was piqued.
Qin Feng: "What kind of trade?"
Gu Ming: "I'd like to trade the token and my Rookie Short Sword for one of your Tier-1 Refined Steel Blades. What do you think?"
Qin Feng smiled.
It was a great deal for him.
Tier-1 weapons typically had an attack boost of 5-8 points.
His own Steel Blade only provided +5 attack, making it one of the weaker Tier-1 weapons.
Still, for these newcomers, it was highly desirable.
Trading such a blade for a Resource Wager Token and a Rookie Short Sword was definitely worthwhile.
Qin Feng: "Deal. But you'll need to include the corpse of that Mutated Beast as well."
Gu Ming: "No problem! The corpse is yours. Thank you so much, Qin Feng!"
Gu Ming was overjoyed, his excitement palpable.
Qin Feng: "Meet me in the Spatial Trade Channel."
Gu Ming: "Got it!"
The trade was quickly completed.
Qin Feng now possessed:
A Resource Wager Token,
A Rookie Short Sword,
And a Mutated Beast corpse.
The token was pitch-black, crafted from a mysterious material, and inscribed with intricate runes.
[Resource Wager Token: Only one appears per Rookie Village. Can only be activated by the highest-level player in the village.]
Ah, that explains it!
Gu Ming couldn't activate it, so he opted to trade it.
[Reminder: If the wager is activated, the initiator's rewards and penalties will be doubled.]
Interesting!
If the wager was lost, other villagers would lose 20 attribute points, while the initiator would lose 40.
No wonder Edward suffered so much!
But if they won, the initiator would gain double rewards: 100 attribute points instead of 50.
"This token is a treasure," Qin Feng thought with a grin.
It was perfect for him. He couldn't wait to initiate another wager.
[Reminder: Wu Yong has traded three Level 4 beast corpses for one Tier-1 Refined Steel Blade.]
[Reminder: Hu Neng has traded one Level 3 White Fox corpse for 10 pounds of roasted meat.]
[Reminder: Wu Yong has traded one Rookie Short Sword for 10 pounds of roasted meat.]
One good thing after another!
Qin Feng happily extracted resources from the newly acquired corpses, preparing for yet another bountiful harvest…
