BXBX NOVEL Chapter 34: The Store
Chapter 34: The Store
After some time, Anna asked about the Zombie Wave that was coming in two hours. Shane explained this to her, and although she felt a bit nervous about this, she didn\'t think of leaving the shelter.
"I\'m not sure if I came at the right time... I might just be a hindrance." Anna said as she realized her skills won\'t help in the upcoming Zombie Wave.
"Don\'t worry about that... You will still be helpful. You can have this baseball bat... I mean, nail bat. This isn\'t ordinary and it can smash zombie\'s head really well." Shane said as he handed over the nail bat.
Before waiting for her reply, he quickly added.
"Foreign Survivors like me have access to a certain store... This store only has limited items and will only be available for 24 hours before the items will change to different ones. If there is something you need, let me know since I\'ll consider buying them if I see them appear in the store. This nail bat is one of them, and I have already upgraded it. You can check its description."
"Ohhh.. I will use it well. Right, if you see some female clothes being sold, please buy it for me. I will pay you... I have three zombie cores here with me." Anna said before checking the description of the Nail Bat.
[ Nail Bat ( Rare ): A crude but effective weapon that can deal serious damage and knockback to low-tier zombies. It is a wooden bat with nails sticking out of it, and has a good balance and weight. It can kill Crawler and Walker Zombies with a single hit on their head and can also cause bleeding damage to zombies. It is also useful for breaking or smashing things.
Effects: +10% damage against Crawler, Walker, and Runner Zombies ]
After checking it, she realized that it was indeed a good item. It was a Rare Grade item and could surely smash a zombie\'s head.
"This looks good... I\'ll go practice swinging outside." Anna said, but she also didn\'t forget to take out the wooden plates and utensils to wash.
"Let me take care of the dishes. Go ahead and practice outside..." Harper immediately said as he took the dishes from Anna. During the past few days, Shane had already carved out several utensils and other simple things using his upgraded pocket knife that he got from the Survival Tool Gift Pack.
He made a total of five wooden plates and five pairs of spoons and forks.
\'I guess I should make a bowl for Lucky later...\' Shane thought as he looked at Anna.
Seeing that Anna was quite happy with the Nail Bat, Shane also remembered to check the Survivor Store. Even if he doesn\'t find a woman\'s clothing, he might get something that could help him in the upcoming Zombie Wave.
[ Special Spicy Instant Noodles: A quick and tasty food that can restore health and energy to the user. It is a pack of noodles with a spicy sauce and can be cooked with water and heat. It can heal the user by a moderate amount, and can also boost the user\'s speed and damage for a short time. Its smell can also be used as a nice distraction from certain zombies with a strong sense of smell.

[ Rope : A versatile and handy item that can be used for various purposes. It is a 10-meter long and strong rope, and can be tied, cut, or burned. It can be used by the user to climb, swing, trap, or bind things. It is also useful for crafting or survival purposes.

[ Single Size Bed: A basic and comfortable bed that can provide rest and comfort for the user. It is a small and cozy bed, and has a mattress, a pillow, and a blanket for free! It can be used by the user to sleep with a good bed quality, and to store some items under or over it. It also provides some resistance to noise and cold, reducing the disturbance and increasing the recovery when asleep.
Price: 15 Zombie Cores

These three items weren\'t new to Shane. They had already appeared a couple of days ago and as a matter of fact, he had already purchased 5 Special Spicy Instant Noodles, and he planned to cook them later. Well, the effectivity of the noodles can only last for 6 hours, and the duration of the Zombie was 12 hours.
He certainly can\'t waste that time, so he thought of eating them by at least 15 or 10 minutes before the Zombie Wave.
As for the rope and bed, he had already obtained several ropes during their exploration around the area, and he even received one in the Survival Tool Gift Packs. The bed, on the other hand, is some sort of luxury that he\'d probably purchase once he survives this Zombie Wave.
Anyway, the other three items being sold were Zombie Detector, Tier 1 Hunter Pants, and Tier 1 Hunter Shoes. The Zombie Detector was something he didn\'t need even if it was upgraded, but the Hunter Pants and Shoes caught his interest.
After all, if he gave up his Hunter Gloves, Harper would have a complete Hunter Set.
[ Tier 1 Hunter Pants: A flexible and breathable pants that protect the lower body from zombie bites and scratches. It is made of cotton and reinforced with leather, and has several pockets and loops for carrying items. It also reduces the chance of being detected by low-tier zombies.
Price: 10 Zombie Cores
Quantity: 1 ]
[ Tier 1 Hunter Shoes (Rare): A light and sturdy shoes that protect the feet from zombie bites and scratches. They are made of rubber and reinforced with metal. It also reduces the chance of being detected by low-tier zombies.
Price: 10 Zombie Cores
Quantity: 1 ]
Without hesitation, Shane purchased the items and upgraded them with his Item Upgrade Crystals.
Well, since he could only upgrade the items he got from the system, he wouldn\'t miss this out for sure.
