The person who chose to buy the [Crimson Wild Boar Meat] seemed to be from B Nation.

His name was Lekurlo, also one of the "first slayers" previously mentioned in the World Announcement.

[Lekurlo: Sorry, I just couldn't resist when there's something tasty.]

[Lekurlo: After eating Crimson Wild Boar Meat, you can improve your strength, so investing Energy Stones isn't a loss.]

[Lekurlo: Besides, I can't even spend my Energy Stones right now anyway.]

As he spoke, Lekurlo even posted pictures of himself grilling the wild boar meat.

Seeing this, many people on the world forum grew even more envious.

[Lekurlo, you're not human! You're purposely teasing us with grilled meat pictures, aren't you?!]

[Wuwu, I want to buy some wild boar meat too, but I don't have any Energy Stones—I can't afford it.]

[Damn it, I can't hold back anymore—I bought some too!]

[We Pasta Nation people don't eat like A Nation—we just can't handle gross food.]

[Calm down, trading Energy Stones for wild boar meat is a total loss!]

[Why is it that in this Apocalypse Era world, we still have to witness the extravagance of the rich?!]

[Quietly say, Su Mu seems to have made another profit.]

At this moment, Su Mu, who was eating some ink plum fruit as dessert inside the shelter, stared blankly at the fifteen pieces of [Crimson Wild Boar Meat] that had already been sold.

"Someone actually bought it."

"Looks like some people really can't resist their hunger."

Su Mu looked at the thirty Energy Stones credited to him, feeling quite pleased.

After checking the world forum to understand the situation, Su Mu finally got it.

B Nation's Lekurlo was showing off his grilled meat pictures, which made some people unable to resist.

Even though everyone knew trading Energy Stones for Crimson Wild Boar Meat was a losing deal, so what?

If it's delicious, how could they keep their mouths shut?

Then, the remaining ninety-nine first slayers chose to exchange their Energy Stones for Crimson Wild Boar Meat first.

On the forum, like Lekurlo, they kept finding reasons to convince themselves, psychologically reassuring that buying the meat was not a loss.

No matter how they rationalized it, Su Mu was absolutely making a killing.

He didn't expect just setting the price casually would cause the wild boar meat to be snapped up so quickly.

"It's a pity Crimson Wild Boar is rare after all."

"I only have ten pieces of Crimson Wild Boar Meat left now."

Su Mu felt a bit regretful.

Crimson Wild Boars were indeed killed less frequently.

But the creatures themselves were rare in this Apocalypse Era world.

Under this end-of-the-world theme, the main tone was still undead creatures.

Su Mu wondered how much wild boar meat he'd get after killing the Crimson Wild Boar King tomorrow.

Far away in a desolate wasteland, Darang scratched his head while staring at the now sold-out Crimson Wild Boar Meat.

Originally, he could have traded for it.

But Su Mu had directly blacklisted him, so even if Darang had money, he couldn't trade with Su Mu.

Watching those first slayers boasting about buying Crimson Wild Boar Meat with Energy Stones, jealousy blazed in Darang's eyes.

"Crimson Wild Boar, huh!"

"If weak L Nation people can kill those monsters, we S Nation people can too!"

...

Meanwhile, on the snowy plains, a fairy-like girl looked somewhat frustrated, staring at the wild boar meat in her backpack.

"I acted on impulse."

"I shouldn't have succumbed to the temptation of delicious food and bought such a losing item."

But the fairy-like girl shook her fair legs and said,

"Still, so many people like wild boar meat now, some even choose to pay Energy Stones for it."

"I wonder if the snow boar meat I saw on the plains before tastes good?"

...

After the buying frenzy ended, the world forum returned to discussing monsters.

[First, I think we need to understand one thing.]

[This world is an Apocalypse Era.]

[Undead creatures like Skeleton Hounds are the dominant theme.]

[Monsters with flesh and blood are definitely more dangerous than most undead.]

[Today I saw undead creatures fighting other monsters outside.]

[The strength of Crimson Wild Boar speaks for itself—look, Su Mu is the only one who's posted wild boar meat so far, right?]

[Eating meat is nothing to me, who can't even beat Skeleton Hounds now.]

[Better focus on getting stronger—otherwise, forget about eating meat, we won't even get to drink soup.]

[Three days have passed—if we still can't survive on our own, we won't even need monsters to invade; we'll starve to death first.]

[Today was the adaptation phase; tomorrow is when the real effort begins!]

In the world forum, shelter leaders were encouraging each other.

Su Mu could see that starting tomorrow, many would progress rapidly.

Today was just to familiarize themselves with this apocalyptic world.

Su Mu checked the map, confirming his route for tomorrow's journey.

Suddenly, a pinned announcement appeared on the world forum:

[Ding, congratulations to all shelter leaders for surviving the first day of survival.]
