0005 – Instance
Athena Ravencroft looked at the application interface that popped up. She pretended to stroke her chin and wondered, "What does this person want with ?"
Obviously, there wouldn't be any results.
"Yes"
--Hello, how much bear at do you have in total? Don't misunderstand, I have a lot of wood blocks, maybe we can trade.
If you have this kind of thing in the future, please contact first
Athena sat up straight away, crossed her legs, and seriously pondered the chat logs.
The avatar of this person was a pixelated girl with short hair. In this ga, avatars couldn't be faked; they were all converted from real photos into pixel characters. So how did this girl nad [ Big Bear ] manage to obtain such a huge amount of wood blocks in such a short ti?
One should know that girls are already at a disadvantage in this kind of ga, and Athena herself was only ahead of others because of the purple font prompts.
She had a total of 25 pieces of bear at and had to keep 10.
Although the system's automatic decomposition function was convenient, it also resulted in losses, such as no leftovers like organs. Originally, there were 400 kilograms of bear at, but now there were only 25 pieces, each weighing 12 kilograms, which could be sold for 180 kilograms.
--> I can give you 80 kilograms of bear at in exchange for 80 wood blocks, do you have them?
-- Please give so ti. I can give them to you on the evening of the 4th day. Can you keep the at for until then?
Athena replied without hesitation.
--> No, the cold wave will arrive on the 5th day, and you should know that I need to build a shelter.
If I keep this at and don't trade with others, and if you break the agreent later, I won't be able to upgrade my shelter.
Big Bear didn't send a ssage for a long ti, perhaps she also knew that her request was a bit excessive. Actually, it wasn't impossible to leave so for her.
After all, even if she left 80 kilograms for her, Athena still had 100 kilograms available for sale, which was more than enough for her to collect other materials.
Athena shook her head, thinking that this person probably didn't intend to negotiate further, so she exited the chat interface with her and entered the trading interface.
Looking at the densely packed red dots on the trading application interface, she clicked away furiously.
She successfully traded 86 kilograms of bear at for 90 units of special weeds (30 bundles) and 13 units of wood blocks. These were all scattered trades, without any big transactions.
It seed like everyone was living a difficult life. Just as she was about to go to sleep with the joy of this harvest, [ Big Bear ] sent her a ssage again.
-- I can tell you so very important information!
-- How important is it?
-- You should know about this system. Besides contacting the item and obtaining its information, once you know its corresponding na, you can also access its information!
Athena knew about this. After all, when she hung up the bear at, the system asked her if she wanted to disclose its corresponding na.
She chose to disclose it at the ti and even gained 5 reputation points. But that didn't matter to her; being able to exchange for reputation points was also good.
Although she didn't know what the reputation points were useful for at this stage, they would co in handy soday. And even if she disclosed the information to others, they couldn't do much with it, after all, she was only able to kill the bear because she knew its weakness from the purple font prompt.
--> Okay
If the other party was willing to tell her their secret, what reason did she have to refuse? Even if it was just an ordinary piece of information, with the purple font, she might still dig up sothing useful.
-- Good, the keyword is Woodblock Goblins. --
Congratulations on unlocking the keyword Woodblock Goblins!

Give them enough ti, and they'll clear the forest. Small bodies, big strength!
Acquisition thods
Silver packages, Goblin instances (currently not explorable)
Oh, look at our purple font being so capable! It even provided her with acquisition thods, although knowing the thods now wouldn't get her anything.
-- In my birthplace, the thatched house, there was a silver package, and after opening it, I got 5 Woodblock Goblins, so I don't know if there are other ways to obtain them
Athena understood. This girl was the legendary lucky one. And she said she got the silver package from where? It just refreshed directly in the thatched house.
Thinking back, every ti she got a package, it was always a struggle, no pain, no gain.
Damn lucky!
--> You're so sincere, I agree to this deal. I hope you can collect enough wood blocks on the evening of the 4th day
-- Okay, thank you.
This girl was quite polite, which made her feel a bit awkward, scratching her nose. She wasn't going to change! Now it's ti to organize all the resources she has.
Tattered bear fur
1 piece
Bear at
194 kilograms (100 kilograms reserved, 80 kilograms for Big Bear, only 14 kilograms available for trading.)
Special weeds
165 units (30 bundles)
Wood blocks
32 units (Big Bear owes 80 units)
Hmm, it seems like a lot, but it's actually not.
Athena looked at the abundant harvest of the past two days and almost couldn't stop smiling.
Patting her cheek, she warned herself not to be complacent. She still needed 18 units of wood blocks to upgrade the shelter! The revolution is not yet successful; comrades still need to work hard!
Tomorrow, continue to speed up tree cutting and collect stones in the afternoon.
For her, collecting stones with the system backpack was easy; just touch them, and they would be stored in the backpack to bring back. It was just a bit troubleso to find so many suitable stones. But it was worth it without having to exchange precious bear at for them.
"Ha." Athena yawned, wanting to sleep. But then she felt like she had forgotten sothing... Opening the friends interface, she found the lighter that the creepy guy who wanted so small 'disgusting' favors from her before trading.
"Just you? Kneeling in front of and begging wouldn't be enough, even being a servant isn't worthy enough for you!"
"So many flaws in your appearance, your face is not even worth a piece of cloth..."
With a burst of output, Athena felt her soul elevate and imdiately blocked the person. Regardless of whether the other person could sleep or not, she slept soundly.
At exactly twelve midnight, the system panel suddenly appeared in the air, and the entire screen displayed in red.
( !!! )
ssages kept bombarding, and the number of surviving people in the upper right corner plumted from 9800 at a cliff-like speed.
Athena was disturbed by the noise and turned over irritably. But the inhumane cries outside startled her awake. She just woke up to see the system interface floating above her head, glowing blood red.
Warning! The third day has arrived, and darkness will further invade!
Lost souls are seeking companions! Rember, light can repel monsters within a certain range!
A temporary instance has been randomly generated: Lost Souls!
Athena sat on the bed, watching as the darkness crept in through the door crack, inching closer to the bed. She picked up the candle nearby, but instead of dispelling the darkness, it spread further.
Two primary candles can be automatically synthesized into one interdiate candle!
She reluctantly lit another candle she had just obtained. The two candles attracted each other like magnets, quickly rging into one, with antique patterns carved on it.

The light shone brightly but not harshly, very gentle, closer to the warmth of the sun. The space, originally being eroded step by step by darkness, was now enveloped by light again, pushing back the darkness.
In the darkness, a figure resembling a skeletal man appeared, with sunken cheeks and eyes devoid of whites, completely black. He twisted his neck, emitting a cracking sound. He reached out his hands towards Athena, strands of black silk floating along his fingertips. His voice was ethereal and eerie, tempting,
"Co, embrace the darkness, and journey with ."
"Co on! What are you doing? Why aren't you moving!!"
Seeing Athena's lack of reaction, he started to go mad, his face becoming more hideous, his teeth trembling uncontrollably, as if he wanted to rush forward and tear Athena apart. Just then, as if the darkness was dispelled by the light, a path without darkness appeared, leading outside the door...
Athena suddenly showed fear, following this path, desperately wanting to escape from this terrifying creature. The monster behind her stared fixedly at her fleeing figure, his face's smile becoming more eerie, his aura becoming more nacing.
The black silk entwined around his hands gradually thickened, ready to strike the prey. Who knew that as Athena touched the wooden door, everything stopped. She slowly turned around, lowered her head, trembling all over, as if crying. The monster grew impatient, intending to scare this timid human again.
As he approached Athena, she lifted her head. Her face was beaming, even trembling with laughter. When this guy entered, although there was no prompt from the system, the purple font provided detailed information.
Lost Soul ( Level 2 )
Skills
Confusion, intimidation, causing disorientation
Unable to attack those protected by light.
Athena looked at the monster, who actually showed an expression of disbelief. She smirked.
"Do you think I'm crying?"
Saying this, she even handed the candle in her hand forward, the fla blazing, instantly burning a hole in the lost soul's hand she reached out, making it tremble in fear.
"If you didn't co in being so cautious, even pretending to attack from a distance. Don't keep trying to scare while looking at my candle with a terrified expression..."
Athena gently shook the candle in her hand, approaching step by step. The positions of hunter and prey had been reversed.
"I might not tease you like this anymore. Maybe you'll really see a timid little girl who doesn't dare to move."
Saying this, she even showed a look of regret. She held the candle and kept guard at the door crack.
"Hey, is the shelter so fragile?"
"Or can you only catch its flaws and enter through the crack?"
"Oh, this crappy door can't be closed properly because its level isn't high enough. So you were waiting for here? Looks like I should upgrade the shelter sooner."
Athena looked at the trembling lost soul and said unhappily, "Weren't you just trying to get to open the door and then extinguish the candle in the dark, take to your lair to play?"
"It's only fair, since you ca to my house first, I'll entertain you well. It's been a long ti since I had an all-night chat. Let's talk!"
Athena smiled innocently. "Don't worry, I won't keep you long. After all, I have things to do in the morning."
"In the morning, I won't be guarding this crack anymore, I'll let you out. Don't you want to see what you'll beco when daylight cos?"
