[What do you mean it's hard to consume all these supplies? That's so damn annoying!]
[And prioritize the Superpower Fruit? Eating that turns you into Superman, who's going to trade with you then?]
[Boss, is it okay to trade Maotai for purified water? @Lin Bu Lang]
[How about swapping Durex for instant noodles? @Lin Bu Lang]
[Where's the trade happening? @Lin Bu Lang]
...
In the group chat.
Someone mocked Lin Lang for wanting to trade life supplies for Superpower Fruits.
Indeed.
Who would trade the opportunity to become Superman for a little bit of daily supplies?
But smart people should understand that the ability awakening is random!
What if you awaken a useless ability, wouldn't that be a waste?
But Lin Lang didn't bother telling them that.
How to choose depends entirely on them.
Most of the residents, however, were very interested in this supplies exchange!
So they began frantically tagging Lin Lang in the group chat.
Lin Bu Lang:
[Unified response, take pictures of the supplies, private message me]
Then, he closed the group chat.
Before long!
A bunch of private messages poured in:
[Boss! Diapers for purified water, is that okay?]
Lin Lang scratched his head:
"What do I need diapers for? No deal!"
[Bu Lang bro! BMW 740, ten thousand kilometers, original paint, trade for ten boxes of instant noodles!]
Lin Lang: "..."
Not even for one pack! What time are we in now?
A BMW is not as useful as a real horse, at least a real horse can run outside!
[Bro, I just bought 'Black Myth Wukong'. Can I trade it for a personal hot pot?]
This one... might be worth considering, pending.
[Boss! Maotai for purified water, I also have other wines!]
[Picture]
This person seems to be a wine collector!
A whole wall of wine, both white and red!
Lin Lang currently only has beer in his space.
Getting a few bottles of Maotai or Lafite wouldn't be bad either.
Occasionally experiencing a tipsy state with Gu Fei and them.
So, Lin Bu Lang accepted his friend request, to be dealt with later.
Just then.
A private message caught his attention:
[Hello, is this the Superpower Fruit you mentioned?]
[Picture]
"Hmm? There actually is one?"
Lin Lang was intrigued and quickly clicked on it.
In the photo, a small, fair, and delicate hand was holding a black fruit!
The fruit was only the size of a grape.
Crystal-clear! Black and glossy!
It really is a Physical Ability Fruit among the Superpower Fruits!
Also!
Judging from the texture of the fruit, it should be of Middle Grade quality!
Lin Lang immediately added him.
The other person's nickname was: "Koukou Su Ran".
"Feels like a girl's name…"
Lin Lang couldn't help but think.
But, influenced by the last "Dream of Ginkgo" incident, he dared not have high expectations for someone he hadn't met.
That "Dream of Ginkgo" left quite some lasting impact!
Almost becoming his psychological shadow!
They successfully added each other as friends—
Koukou Su Ran: [Hi, can this fruit be exchanged for supplies?]
Lin Bu Lang: [What supplies do you want to exchange for?]
Koukou Su Ran: [Food, water, heart medication]
Lin Bu Lang: [Water and food are no problem. I don't have the medication, but I can find a way to help you]
Koukou Su Ran: [Where will the trade take place?]
Lin Bu Lang: [Where do you live?]
Koukou Su Ran: [Building C, Unit 1, 602]
Turns out it's in the same building, that makes it easy.
Lin Lang closed his eyes, released his Telekinesis, and concentrated on room 602—
A simply decorated apartment.
The furnishings in the room were minimal.
A frail figure was sitting alone on a wooden chair in the living room.
This back view, it must be a girl.
Just not sure about her appearance.
But judging from the environment, this doesn't seem to be a wealthy family.
Also.
The girl must have a heart condition, otherwise, she wouldn't have asked about the medication.
Lin Lang initially planned to make "Koukou Su Ran" go to the rooftop for the trade.
This way, his address wouldn't be exposed.
But now…
He felt a bit sorry—
The person has a heart condition, and the elevator is broken now, making her climb nearly thirty flights of stairs is a bit too cruel.
Lin Bu Lang:
[I'll come to you later. The code is, all meals covered!]
Koukou Su Ran: [Then what should I reply?]
Lin Lang couldn't help but smile, suddenly finding this girl a bit cute!
[You just reply, let me join!]
Koukou Su Ran: [Okay!]
So Lin Lang left the study.
Went to the bedroom.
By then, the golden light on Gu Fei was almost fully absorbed.
But it still needed a little more time.
Lin Lang advised Ning Shuangyu:
"I'll step out for a bit, stay home and don't open the door to strangers."
Ning Shuangyu was a bit speechless.
She was no child!
But she still nodded:
"Got it."
Lin Lang reached out and ruffled her hair:
"Good girl!"
After that, he walked out the door.
Went downstairs.
The silent and empty stairway was like a dark abyss, who knew how many mutated insects were lurking somewhere.
Regular people wouldn't dare walk through here.
But Lin Lang walked steadily.
His Telekinesis enveloped the entire building, knowing exactly where the monsters were and where it was safe.
Those insects, though larger after mutation, were still timid by nature.
Unless they encountered prey on the verge of death, they wouldn't actively attack.
Lin Lang quickly made his way down to the sixth floor.
It only took a few minutes.
With his current physical strength, this amount of exercise was nothing more than a yawn!
"602, here we are."
Lin Lang saw the plaque on the door, knocked on it.
Inside, there was a series of soft footsteps.
"Koukou Su Ran" stood cautiously behind the door, but didn't speak.
Lin Lang: "All meals covered."
Only then did she reply, "Let me join!"
Her voice was soft and gentle, giving off the feeling of being easily bullied.
Lin Lang said, "The code is right, open the door."
She said, "Did you bring the supplies?"
Lin Lang said, "I did."
She asked again, "Can we trade at the door, without you coming in?"
Lin Lang shrugged: "Sure."
"Alright, that's settled then!"
And then.
She opened the door.
A hand stretched out from the door gap, holding the Middle-grade Physical Fruit!
Lin Lang thought she was silly.
Who trades like this, aren't you afraid I'd take it and run?
He grabbed the fruit into his own hand.
The moment their bodies touched, Lin Lang obtained information about this "Koukou Su Ran":
[Lü Su Ran]
[Appearance: 9.5 points]
[Recharge: 0 times]
[Loyalty: 5%]
[Return Multiplier: 300]
Lin Lang was instantly shocked:
"9.5 points!"
Even higher than Gu Fei and Ning Shuangyu!
What does this woman even look like?
There's actually such a goddess in the community I've never run into?
If she was 7 or 8 points, it wouldn't matter!
Missing her would be missing her.
After all, he had the two nine-point goddesses, Gu Fei and Ning Shuangyu, so he didn't feel he was missing out.
But this is a 9.5 pointer!
He must try and get a feel for it!
While he was lost in thought.
Lü Su Ran asked again, "Where are your supplies?"
Lin Lang coughed lightly:
"I brought them, but I have to come in to give them to you."
"No way!"
Unexpectedly, Lü Su Ran firmly refused, but there was a hint of grievance in her voice!
"We clearly agreed you wouldn't come in!"
Lin Lang could only bluff:
"If I don't come in, I can't give you the supplies…"
Mid-sentence, he suddenly shouted:
"Uh-oh! A bug is coming! Quick, let me in!"
"Ah?!"
Lü Su Ran was startled!
Those bugs were life-threatening!
No matter how ruthless she was, she couldn't let a living person stay outside in such a moment!
So she opened the door:
"Come in quickly!"
