Digging to Survive: I Can See Hints

Translator: Simple MTL  Editor: Simple MTL

The person who had come was naturally Alice.

Even before the fish clothes were on the shelves, Klein had already guessed it.

It was because Alice was always the most enthusiastic one every time Klein placed a product on the shelves.

“Brother Klein, these fish clothes of yours looks really awesome. I want one!” Alice said excitedly.

Klein asked curiously, “That’s not a problem, but didn’t you just buy a shower and ice-cream from me? Do you not have any problems regarding materials?”

“Brother Klein, don’t you trust me? When have I ever lied to you during a trade? Furthermore, the current trading system is very strict. There’s no cheating at all, okay?”

Alice felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Klein say that.

Klein smiled and said, “No, you misunderstood me. Of course, I know that you won’t lie. There are enough materials. What I mean is whether or not these fish clothes are worth spending so many materials to exchange with me. After all, surviving in the catacombs is the most important thing. Although these fish clothes are very useful, the cost is indeed not small.”

Klein didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he explained.

“I’ve also thought about it carefully. With the support of these fish clothes, we can take a detour when facing some unusually ferocious crypt creatures. We’ve been very lucky to defeat the few crypt creatures we’ve encountered recently, so I have no choice but to think of a way in this regard.”

Seeing that Klein didn’t mean it, Alice felt a little better and explained patiently.

“Alright, I understand. Then, let’s follow the previous procedure and trade.”

“Alright! Thank you, Brother Klein! Also, can I buy two sets? I want to buy one for my mother as well.”

“No problem, as long as you have enough materials.”

Klein nodded.

“That’s great! But there’s still one last question… Then, about that last question, what is the thing that you think is most precious?” Alice asked in puzzlement.

Klein nodded and said, “There’s no clear rule on that. As long as it’s something that you think is very important to you among the creatures in the catacombs, it’s fine.”

Klein explained.

Soon, the transaction was completed.

[System Notification: Fire Rune+200]

[System notification: Wind Rune+200]

…

[System notification: Water Element Grass Seeds+2]

Alice looked at Klein and said, “Brother Klein, these are the two treasures that I value the most. I found them in a catacomb previously, but I didn’t have the time to plant them, so I gave them to you as a transaction.”

Alice said it somewhat reluctantly.

“Alright.”

Klein didn’t say much and directly checked the information about the Water Element Grass Seed.

[Water Element Grass Seed: After the Water Element Grass Seed is cultivated, it can bloom into a fruit. This fruit is called the Fruit of Water. After consuming it, it can greatly replenish and purify the water in your body, greatly reducing the amount of water you drink every day and greatly increasing your physical strength! This is an active effect. There’s also a hidden effect that has a certain probability of being triggered.]

[Each Water Elemental Grass can only bear one fruit.]

“This thing isn’t bad.”

Klein nodded.

Although it could only bear one fruit, it was completely worth it in terms of the value of the fruit.

Furthermore, what caught Klein’s attention was that there was still a hidden effect waiting to be discovered.

If Klein could trigger this hidden effect, it might bring an unexpected surprise.

After the transaction with Alice ended, Klein was left with eight fish clothes.

In the next few hours, people came to Klein’s shop to buy fish clothes.

William said, “Big Brother Klein, I want to buy fish clothes.”

Klein asked, “Do you have enough materials?”

William said, “Don’t worry, Big Boss Klein. It’s completely enough.”

Klein said, “Just trade it directly.”

Following that, it was Roger.

Just like William, he was also very decisive. The entire transaction took less than two minutes.

Everyone could be considered old acquaintances, and they knew each other well.

In addition, they were all powerful people.

The exchange was very simple.

The remaining six fish clothes were bought by others in three hours.

“It looks like everyone’s standards have improved a lot. They can meet such strict trading conditions. Furthermore, they managed to gather so many materials in just three hours.”

Klein analyzed.

This was much better than he had expected.

Even if he included Alice, William, and Roger, three powerful old customers, Klein was also mentally prepared to sell the fish clothes in three days.

After completing the last fish clothes transaction, Klein looked at the gains after the transaction.

[Fire Runes: +1,000]

[Water Runes: +1,000]

[Earth Runes: +1,000]

..

[Water Elemental Grass Seeds: 2.]

[Seed Explosion Blood Pill: 1 (After consuming it, you can increase your physical strength and speed by 10 times in a short period of time.)]

[Hallucinogenic Powder: 1 portion (After using it on the user, you can cause the user to fall into an illusion and lose the ability to attack within one minute.)]

1

This was something that Klein felt was very useful. The remaining portion wasn’t of much use to him.

But Klein didn’t mind.

After all, the final condition that Klein had proposed was very personal. No matter what the other party offered, Klein would accept it.

Klein’s gaze focused as he unfolded the runic base.

“Alu, Lulu, I’ll leave these two Water Elemental Grass seeds to you. Please nurture them well.”

Alu and Lulu carefully took the seeds from Klein’s hands.

Alu looked at the Water Elemental Grass seed in her arms and said in astonishment, “Wow, Water Elemental Grass seed? It seems to be an extremely rare elemental seed. Each elemental grass can only bear one fruit, but it’s an incomparable essence.”

“Mr. Klein, where did you get this seed?” Lulu asked curiously as she looked at Klein with her big, adorable eyes.

“You guys sure know a lot. I got it through trading with others,” Klein explained with a smile.

“Of course. We’re Flower Spirits. We’ve heard of all sorts of seeds in this world.”

The two little ones were very proud after being praised by Klein.

“Alright, I’ll have to trouble you to take good care of these two seeds so that they can bloom into beautiful flowers and bear beautiful fruits.”

Klein smiled at the two little ones.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Klein. Leave it to us!”

“We will definitely be able to make it bear the fullest fruits.”

With that said, the two little ones carried the two Water Element Grass seeds to the greenhouse.

Klein simply rested in the runic base for a while before putting it back into his hands.

He was prepared to head to the next catacomb.

Klein looked around and a new hint appeared in front of his eyes.
