Apocalypse Arrives: I Become a Powerhouse by Scavenging

After returning home, Moira Lynch once again threw herself back into her weapons research.

She had opened the game forums earlier, and they were filled with nothing but pleas for her to list more recovery potions.

Although the Pharmacy Box would refresh with healing and recovery potions every day, it was ultimately random.

Moreover, since the Pharmacy Box had a wide variety of potions, the quantity of each type was limited, and sometimes a specific kind might not appear at all.

So, Moira Lynch decided to craft a Healing Blade.

As for why a Healing Blade, it was born from Moira Lynch’s own twisted sense of humor.

’Just imagine the scene,’ she thought. ’Pulling out a blade when you’re supposed to be healing someone. Anyone who didn’t know better would think their injuries weren’t severe enough, and you were about to finish them off.’

Wielding this blade in battle, you could slash an enemy until they were dripping with blood, only for the wounds to heal automatically the next second. It was all about inflicting pure pain, leaving no wounds behind.

This time, Moira Lynch didn’t choose a silver ingot, but a piece of blue-green jade.

Perhaps because practice makes perfect, the crafting process went much more smoothly this time compared to her first attempt.

The final step was to pour a Healing Potion over the dagger and let it be absorbed.

Moira Lynch vividly described this process as Enchantment.

From then on, it was as if Moira Lynch had unlocked a new level of creativity, and an endless stream of various weapons emerged one after another.

There was a Hammer of Thor that could change size, infused with both space and lightning Attributes; and a whip with a built-in electric shock effect.

There was a whistle that could blow a gust of cold wind—that’s right, the kind you blow to call an assembly.

...

Moira Lynch’s creative inspiration for weapons was flowing endlessly, earning her a love-hate relationship with the multitude of players.

Meanwhile, after a period of careful preparation, the first team set to explore Veridian Prime was finally about to depart.

Aside from various scientific researchers, everyone heading over this time was a combatant who had used an Awakening Potion, totaling twenty thousand people.

Although the report provided by SoySauceDrunkard stated that Veridian Prime was not dangerous, they were still prepared for battle at a moment’s notice.

Their main mission this time was exploration. Only by understanding the environment on the other side could they proceed with the next phase of their plan.

Once everyone had reached the designated location, one person took out the Teleportation Device Moira Lynch had given them.

Moira Lynch herself could travel freely between planets using the silver certificate in her hand, but others couldn’t do that, and there was no way she would hand her certificate over.

After all, her name was signed on it.

Therefore, to solve this problem, she spent a fortune—a truly massive fortune—to purchase a top-tier Teleportation Device from the game system.

Of course, Moira Lynch was definitely going to recoup the money spent on the Teleportation Device from other sources.

As the machine activated, a ten-meter-wide gate of light appeared.

Everyone watched this scene with excitement, their breathing quickening.

"Move out!"

Watching the trucks carrying various supplies slowly disappear into the gate of light, Redlight said with envy, "I wish I could go see what Veridian Prime is really like."

Chase Shepard, who was beside him, laughed. "There will be chances in the future. We have more important things to do right now. The next round of the game is about to start, isn’t it?"

Redlight nodded. "Five days left. I hope there are no more accidents this time."

"I’d almost hope you have another accident," Chase Shepard said, rubbing his chin. ’That way, we could get more game qualifications.’

Redlight was about to retort, but on second thought, it didn’t seem like such a bad idea.

At the same time, after several sleepless days and nights of crafting, Moira Lynch finally created the three weapons she was most satisfied with.

The Space Blade, which could open up a pocket dimension for someone to hide inside. The duration was about two hours.

This space could also store various supplies, but it didn’t have the preservation effect of the Space Button.

Besides these two abilities, there was one more ability.

Moira Lynch went to the bathroom door, took out the Space Man, and swiped it lightly across the surface. A slit immediately appeared on the door.

Through this slit, Moira Lynch passed smoothly from outside the bathroom to the inside.

Behind her, the slit on the bathroom door slowly healed until it returned to its original state, leaving not a single trace.

This Space Man was practically a divine artifact for other ordinary players.

A treasure like this, of course, had to be saved for her own people.

The remaining two weapons were the Healing Spear with an infinite energy source and the Gun of Destruction.

Unlike before, when she just sprinkled potions on things, these three weapons were all crafted by Moira Lynch using her own innate talent.

She listed the three weapons in the shop, setting them to be visible only to specified people to prevent them from being bought by others.

After finishing all this, Moira Lynch went out and shouted to the three people downstairs, "Hey, go check SoySauceDrunkard’s shop! It looks like he listed some new goodies."

Kai York’s voice soon came from downstairs. "Oh yeah? Let me see what bizarre item he’s come up with this time. I wonder if it’s weirder than that Recovery Bowl."

Hearing this, Moira Lynch’s expression soured.

’What do you mean, bizarre item? These are my labors of love!’

’That Recovery Bowl might have looked a little weird, but as long as you put it on your head, it would continuously restore your condition and relieve fatigue.’

’Every single one of you made fun of it, but I didn’t see any of you hesitate when you bought it.’

Soon, a surprised voice came from downstairs. "Whoa, it’s not a bizarre item this time."

When Shane Rhodes and the other two saw the information for the three weapons, their eyes instantly lit up.

These three items were the best of the best. They had to be bought.

When the three of them saw the price, a strange feeling arose in their hearts.

The price was oddly specific, a strange number with dollars and cents, set right at the absolute limit of what they could afford.

"That SoySauceDrunkard guy has always been whimsical and unpredictable. He probably just randomly typed in this price," Kai York offered as a forced explanation.

It seemed like a far-fetched reason, but when applied to SoySauceDrunkard and considering his recent antics, it somehow started to make sense.

The three weapons soon appeared before them. Now the question was how to divide them.

Hugh Finch’s combat power had always been a weak point compared to the other three—that’s right, he couldn’t even beat Moira Lynch—so he naturally chose the Gun of Destruction.

Shane Rhodes had enough combat power, so he chose the Healing Spear.

Kai York’s advantage was his speed, so he chose the Space Blade.

"It’s weird. Why didn’t SoySauceDrunkard make the Space Blade in the shape of a gun, too?"

Even though the Space Man’s ability was incredible, he felt like he was at a huge disadvantage in terms of style when the others had guns and he just had a dagger.
