Chapter 13: Bidding Up Prices, Mcgee Spread the Fire
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Before he knew it, the sun had set in the west.
Night fell, and all was silent.
Mcgee was lying on the big bed in the wooden house, relaxing his spirit.
For the whole day, Mcgee lived a full and satisfied life.
The busy life could greatly dispel the confusion and uneasiness in the heart.
On one side, the semi-finished charcoal in the stove was constantly releasing heat, dispelling the cold air in the wooden house.
A steak was really sizzling oil from the charcoal fire, and the aroma was overflowing.
Mcgee thought for a moment and decided that it was time to build some defensive measures for his farm.
Actually, this was what Mcgee wanted to do the most.
But because he had not even eaten at that time, he could only put eat first.
Two days had passed since the three-day novice protection period. If there were no effective defenses outside, Mcgee would not be able to sleep peacefully.
Taking advantage of his free time, Mcgee opened the system panel and continued to search for useful information.
In order to survive in this world, information and intelligence were the most important things.
In the chat channel, other than the majority of people who were still wailing like yesterday and complaining about the harsh living environment.
There were also some people who, although clumsy, were still trying their best to learn something.
“Boss, I’ve found the vines today. Can you continue to teach me how to weave a fish basket? When I catch fish, I’ll definitely reward you!”
“There are many birds near my home. Can someone teach me how to make traps? The harvest will be 50-50!”
At this time, the sky was getting dark and everyone was facing the same dilemma as yesterday. Suddenly, a person with the ID of Lucas… said an explosive statement, “Brothers, let me tell you a little trick. As long as there is a fire source, you can use the stove in the wooden house to get warm at night.”
“Wow, thank you, boss. I went to take a closer look just now. It really can be used to get warm!”
“I saw it too. It’s real!”
“This is the real boss. He is not stingy in imparting his skills!”
“That’s right! It’s much better than those people who only know how to show off pictures all day long!”
“But we don’t have the tinder! What should we do?”
A subtle smile appeared on Lucas’ face as he spoke again.
“Brothers, my initial pet beast, fiery bear, has the ability to make tinder. But to be fair, you have to give something in exchange!”
When the others saw it, they urged, “Boss, what do you want? As long as there’s something, I’ll give it to you!”
“Yes, yes! Fire is the most important thing!”
“Boss, hurry up and put it on the shelf!”
In the dark wooden house, a muscular man with a strong back was patiently waiting for them to take the bait.
This man was Lucas, a retired heavyweight fighter with a golden belt.
He was an extreme battle maniac, a reaper that everyone avoided in the octagonal cage.
His back-hand punch hit an astonishing 80 kilograms!

As long as he hit someone with his back-hand punch, they would basically be carried off the field.
The boxing field was lonely. Lucas, who could not find an opponent, chose to retire at his peak and then transmigrated to this world.
His tamed beast was a fire attributed giant bear, which was also his current boxing sparring partner.
But this alone was not enough.
He had dominated the entire ring for more than ten years. He did not trust anyone, only his own fists. People with big fists spoke the truth.

In such a Beast Master Survival World, the Beast Master was the strongest source of strength.
The more powerful Beast Masters, the better. He made up his mind to build the strongest team.
He saw that yesterday, Mcgee made a lot of money by selling thermal stones.
He followed his example and started to fool people who did not have tinder on the world channel. “Brothers, as long as we have fire, we can no longer be afraid of the cold. We can also use it to drive away wild beasts, and we can also eat cooked food!”
“Big Brother, stop wasting time. We know the importance of tinder. Hurry up and make an offer!”
“Yes, yes!”
Seeing that the others had already taken the bait, Lucas finally said, “If you want tinder, you can exchange it with your initial tamed beast. I have the only tinder in the community!”

“F*ck! It’s so dark!”
“You’re trying to kill us! Without our tamed beasts, how can we survive in the future!”
Countless comments flooded the entire channel, and countless people who were in there exploded.
…
Mcgee opened the community, and sure enough, Lucas had already put up the tinder.
The price was the player’s initial tamed beast.
Mcgee could not stand it anymore. This kind of behavior really drove people to a dead end.
Without the tamed beast, once the three-day novice protection period was over, those people definitely would not be able to survive.
Mcgee shook his head and thought. “Something like tinder doesn’t require you to pay any price. It’s just a trade. You can make money, but why would you kill yourself? Besides, this way of making money is too low-end. You should cut the leeks one by one. If you cut my leeks to death, what should I cut?”
In order to prevent people from really being unable to endure the cold, and thus using tamed beasts to exchange for the seed of fire.
Mcgee took some burning red charcoal from the stove and put it on the shelves in the community.
Ignited charcoal
Price: Wood × 1.
It could be used to keep warm. Since it had already been ignited, it was also the best item to start a fire.
The seller, Mcgee, left a message: Since ancient times, tinder has been the thing that humans rely on the most. It is also synonymous with faith and hope. Today, I am here to spread the fire. I sincerely hope that everyone can safely survive this crisis.
The chat channel immediately exploded,
“See! See! The level is high. It is obvious at a glance. This is the real boss!”
“Where is the person who mocked Mcgee just now? Tell me your location. I have to f*cking come over and light up your wooden house today!”
“Thank you, big boss, Mcgee. I am truly grateful. I almost used my tamed beast to exchange for that stupid tinder just now. Thank you, big boss, Mcgee! I will never forget the favor of saving my life!”
“By the way, big brother, why did you do so many good things?”
“To show off. What else could it be for?”
“You upstairs! I advise you to be kind!”
“That’s right. Envy is envy. Can you be a little more virtuous with your mouth?”
After Mcgee saw it, he smiled with some relief.
“I thought they were just a bunch of ingrates. It seems that there are still people who will remember well.”
They may not usually speak up, but sometimes they stand by Mcgee’s side.
