Enemies Are All Nourishment for My Fungi? Chapter 66 – Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Money Earned Is Meant to Be Spent

Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Money Earned Is Meant to Be Spent
 

On the following morning, Ye Nai still rested, while everyone else including Captain Niu followed the logistics team to the warehouse to take stock of the supplies. After lunch, Ye Nai joined them at the warehouse, collecting and storing the morning's tallied supplies into her Space.

Then she continued to rest, waiting for the evening and midnight to collect more supplies.

With the whole team working together, the task was indeed completed in three days. The supplies they had come to retrieve were all placed in Ye Nai's Space, and they set off early on the fifth day, returning to Danger Zone No. 5 in the afternoon.

They unloaded the goods, received the payment, and immediately new work followed.

All seven danger zones of East Ridge City needed to procure supplies from Anyuan City.

One trip took five days, and adding the two days of rest for her, cycling through the entire route took just over a month, and the total income after taxes was over 1.3 million.

After a month, Ye Nai had figured out why the military supply warehouse of East Ridge City was located in Anyuan City. It was because the land area of her own city was small. A city built among the gaps of seven danger zones had to leave some land for civilian life, so the military's large storage facilities had to be placed in the neighboring city.

The number one Danger Zone, which was expected to be cleared of waste in three to five years to begin land management, truly represented the city's future hope.

At the end of her stint working in Danger Zone No. 1, Ye Nai had collected the spores released by the fungus, and the tremendous energy had granted her this Fungal Space. During this delivery run, she took the opportunity to scatter a new wave of spores.

Considering how important the land was, she decided to lend a hand.

After completing this major task, it was time to start delivering supplies to the various front-line camps within the Secret Realm.

The towns in the rear didn't need any attention; they would drive out and pick up their supplies themselves. The front-line camps had limited manpower, requiring supplies to be delivered deep into each danger zone.

If these front-line camps successfully secured their positions, follow-up infrastructure would be built, developing new rear towns. Hence, whichever danger zone's people occupied the territory, the newly built towns would be directly controlled by that danger zone.

This was the Encroachment Plan, slowly taking over the land within the Secret Realm, one piece at a time, with the ultimate goal of reaching the border of the Secret Realm and discovering the enemy's origin.

The previous time, when Danger Zone No. 7 hired Ye Nai to transport supplies to three front-line camps, it was exactly because those camps belonged to people from Danger Zone No. 7.

After resting for three days, Ye Nai started her new delivery task.

A camp could only hold a limited amount of supplies at a time, but Ye Nai could deliver to several front-line camps in one trip, transporting not only the supplies she had just brought back but also weapons and ammunition.

Delivering ammunition was especially high pressure. Although she didn't understand why the higher-ups would trust her with such tasks, the doubled freight charges—from 20 to 40—eliminated any of her questions instantly.

And so she ran trip after trip until she had visited all the front-line camps. By then, it was November, and winter was about to start.

Having some free time, Ye Nai packed her bags and took a trip to Anyuan City for tourism.

She wanted to buy a computer and an electric motorcycle. The weather, neither too cold nor too hot, was perfect for shopping.

For these two major purchases, she sought the contact information of a technical information intelligence soldier from the captains' group chat. She added them one by one as friends and consulted them about computer configurations. They used computers daily and were extremely particular about performance; without good performance, it was impossible to sift through a heap of video content to find useful intelligence.

The advantage of Ye Nai not being short on money was evident; she went with the configurations they were accustomed to, maximizing performance, stronger than even the top-tier gaming consoles; price was not a concern. She compiled a list of computer components worth 120,000 based on their collective wisdom.

Even the monitors were professional-grade for film and television. Since visual representation was excellent, she bought them for looking at high-definition medical images; a phone simply wasn't a good tool for studying.

Aside from items like computer desks, chairs, network cables, and home cabinets, these tech enthusiasts also recommended a great device: a power adapter capable of supplying power to the computer from a nuclear battery. This used to be an emergency solution, but it has now become a mainstream method. After plugging a power strip into the adapter, it could even power an air conditioner, offering a quieter and more stable functionality with a longer usage time compared to a generator.

Additionally, during the two-day break after each mission, Ye Nai would borrow a motorcycle to learn how to drive, and also to understand how to pick and maintain one. In this process, not only did she pass her motorcycle driving test, but she also decided on the motorcycle she wanted to buy.

The new model that hit the market this year was the Secret Realm off-road crossover electric motorcycle, priced at eighty thousand. This was also what those motorcycle owners recommended to her, as she had long legs and looked both dashing and cool riding that sort of bike.

Mainly because Ye Nai had borrowed a variety of models to learn on, everyone could see that she truly enjoyed speed and had the guts for it; she even dared to accelerate the first time she rode a motorcycle steadily. Therefore, the model they picked for her suited her in every way.

As for the price, it all depends on what you compare it with. The cost was enough to buy a family electric car.

But family cars are not very practical in the environment of the Secret Realm.

Before Ye Nai obtained her car driver's license, a motorcycle was her main mode of transportation.

Moreover, as the year was coming to an end, manufacturers started pre-heating for the year-end promotions. When buying a motorcycle, you could get a nuclear battery at half price, meaning a thirty thousand battery would only cost fifteen thousand.

Ye Nai took a liking to this promotion, simply because it was affordable and she wanted it.

With this, she could remove the nuclear battery from her small electric scooter and dedicate it for powering her computer.

Now that everything was ready, she could leave at a moment's notice.

East Ridge City had a small train station for slow-moving trains, but traveling back to the city was just like taking a long trip. When she initially went to Dangerous Area No. 5 by bus, departing in the morning and arriving only in the afternoon, returning to the city was out of the question; instead of taking the bus, riding her small electric scooter took nearly the same amount of time.

Another similarity was being so jostled that it gave her a headache, backache, and sore buttocks.

After checking into a hotel near the train station and eating dinner, she went straight to sleep.

The next morning, she got up early to catch the 7:30 a.m. bus, and after a wobbly four-hour ride, arrived at Anyuan City.

With its land area and population, Anyuan City was a normal city with no Secret Realm. It had just two dangerous areas, one to the east and one to the west, and enjoyed convenient transportation. Those who wished to earn money from the Secret Realm had three neighboring cities to choose from, with industries supporting the Secret Realm that were much stronger than in East Ridge City.

That's why Ye Nai decided to do her big shopping here.

After eating lunch on the street, Ye Nai rode her small electric scooter, opened the navigation on her phone, and first set off to buy a computer.

She had prepared a detailed guide for purchasing a computer, specifying which street to go to, which computer market, which floor, and which shop to find each component, and what model to buy.

All were treasure trove shops treasured by those tech soldiers.

Ye Nai followed the guide, and in one afternoon, had bought everything. Then she found a hotel to stay in, and the next day started visiting motorcycle shops.

The brand of motorcycle she was interested in had several dealerships in the city. Ye Nai visited them one by one to see which one offered the most valuable freebies.

The motorcycle price would not change if it came with a nuclear battery, which was a promotion set by the manufacturer. Dealers would throw in a little extra like free gloves, helmets, or leather jackets.
