Number 35233: I'm starting to feel quite cold now. When will this rain stop? If it continues for another day, I might freeze to death outdoors.
Number 233333: The wind is leaking from all sides of my rundown house. I can't bear it, and I feel like I'm catching a cold.
Waldo looked at the sky through the glass, but there was no sign of the heavy rain stopping.
Just now, soone in the chat channel joked about whether it would rain again the next day. Waldo thought that it was not impossible.
Yawn!
Alanna, sitting on the couch in the villa's living room, sneezed.
She touched her arms, which had goosebumps, and rubbed them together for warmth.
Waldo ca over and asked, "Feeling cold?"
Alanna nodded honestly.
"It's a bit chilly. The temperature dropped too quickly, and I can't react in ti."
Indeed, even the upgraded Waldo could feel a hint of cold, let alone Alanna, who hadn't been upgraded and was still a delicate woman.
"We need to find sothing to keep warm," Waldo thought. "Should I light a fire?"
Suddenly, he rembered the unlimited supplies they had today.
What a coincidence!
Cotton can be used to make a quilt!
They might not be able to make a super warm and sturdy quilt, but it wouldn't be difficult for Waldo to stuff cotton into the fabric.
And there was enough cotton, so if one quilt wasn't warm enough, they could use two!
As Waldo opened the trading platform to gather fabric and sewing materials, he said to Alanna, "Wait a mont, I'll perform a magic trick for you."
Soon, he took out the materials for making the quilt that he had gathered.
Alanna looked at the floor full of cotton and fabric, with a surprised expression.
"Waldo, how did you get cotton?!"
Waldo smiled and said, "Of course, I exchanged it on the trading platform. Dr. Xie, if you want to make the quilt quickly, help sew the fabric. I'm not used to using embroidery needles."
Alanna nodded eagerly.
"Hehe, that's my specialty."
With the needle and thread and the fabric in hand, Alanna quickly made several quilt covers.
This task was not difficult for her, given her background as a doctor.
Soon, Waldo and Alanna successfully covered themselves with the quilt.
Waldo took out hot food and warm coffee from his backpack. Curled up in the quilt, they enjoyed their al and drinks as if they were on a weekend getaway.
While many players outside the villa were shivering from the cold and rain, none of it affected them.
After eating and drinking their fill, Alanna snuggled in the quilt and murmured happily, "Mmm, this feels so comfortable!"
Waldo leaned closer and asked, "Where does it feel comfortable?"
Alanna, suddenly sensing the strong breath of a man next to her ear, blushed slightly.
She buried her head in the quilt and pouted, "Waldo, you're teasing again!"
Waldo laughed heartily and ruffled Alanna's hair.
Unlike when seeking caution and even ruthlessness in battles, Waldo preferred to relax and freely joke around with Alanna during non-combat tis. He wanted soone to accompany him and have conversations.
If he kept his battle instincts constantly on edge, he felt that he wouldn't last long.
Alanna also realized that after just a few days of life and death struggles, she had beco sowhat dependent on Waldo.
Sotis, when she didn't see Waldo around, she felt uneasy.
Thinking back to when she initially planned to assassinate Waldo,
but ended up stubbornly following him, she couldn't help but feel a little ashad.
But she knew that her choice was right.
By Waldo's side, she found the sense of security that was lacking in this apocalyptic world.
At that mont, a thought suddenly ca to Alanna. Biting her lip, she hesitated and struggled with her expression for a while. Then she raised her head and asked, "Waldo, how about tonight, you co to my room?"
Waldo was startled and shivered in fear. He had been single all his life, and now a beautiful woman was actively approaching him. His mind went blank, and he blurted out, "No! Won only distract from drawing my gun quickly. Forget about touching, I can't even think about it!"
Alanna stood there, stunned. She didn't expect herself, as a young woman, to be so forward, only to be rcilessly rejected by Waldo.
Alanna angrily stood up, huffed, wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, and climbed up the stairs, entering a room. She forcefully slamd the door shut.
Waldo's mind started functioning again, and he regretted his response imnsely. "Damn it! Was my brain kicked by a donkey?!" He tried to console himself by thinking that he had just arrived at the villa area, and the crisis was not yet resolved.
Thinking about matters between n and won at this mont was inappropriate.
Waldo looked at the chat channel where players were still complaining about the weather and how cold they were. He gritted his teeth and muttered, "I'm not happy, so you all can be unhappy too!"
Then, Waldo used the system's screenshot function to take a picture of himself lying on a luxurious sofa, wrapped in a quilt. He posted the photo with the caption:
Number 10086: Ah? Why don't you have a quilt? I thought everyone had one. (Attached image)
Number 878732: ???
Number 45432: Ah! Damn it!! How could there be quilts like that?!
Number 99923: 10086, if you dare to share your coordinates, I promise I won't kill you!
Number 10086: Hehe. I happen to have a few extra quilts. Anyone interested? I've listed them on the trading platform.
As he spoke in the chat channel, Waldo also listed the quilts on the trading platform. However, the trading conditions were harsh, accepting only combat supplies. It was practically an exorbitant price!
Combat supplies required a large amount of food and water for trade, and exchanging for quilts required even more combat supplies. When calculated, only a few people could afford it!
After the quilts were listed, the chat channel was filled with condemnation towards Waldo.
Number 93849: Are you insane? Why don't you just rob soone? So many supplies for a worthless quilt?
Number 10086: You don't have to trade if you don't want to. I'm not freezing anyway. But just a friendly reminder, it looks like this rain won't stop anyti soon.
Number 77777: Let's boycott! Let him not sell anything and freeze to death outside!
Number 85842: Exactly! Freeze to death, die outside! I'll never buy this lousy quilt!
Number 34341: Huh? How did soone buy a quilt?
Number 552: I'm really sorry, guys. The quilt is really warm. Keep boycotting, I'll withdraw.
Watching everyone turn their attacks towards Number 552, Waldo almost burst out laughing. Although he attracted envy from many people in the chat channel, he still managed to successfully trade several quilts for a large amount of combat supplies.
Imdiately after, Waldo listed so cold dicine and shouted in the chat channel, "Brothers, I just listed so affordable cold dicine. If you need it, grab it quickly. You don't want to fight zombies with a weakened body, do you?"
This ti, the chat channel wasn't as lively in condemning Waldo as before. The players weren't fools, and they knew the importance of cold dicine. Many players who were already feeling a bit
sick, although begrudgingly, still had to trade for the cold dicine that required combat supplies.
