Apocalypse Descends: I Win Effortlessly by Turning Trash into Treasure

Hearing that they could only trade in a single card, everyone was a little disappointed. But when they heard Perry Yates announce a 5% discount for anyone ordering a custom card this time, the crowd instantly went wild.

As always, every little bit saved counted. A 5% discount might not seem like much, but it was still worth several cards.

If they were customizing a four-star card, the savings would be even greater.

Seeing the discount on offer, even the players who had been hesitating because of their cards’ incomplete attributes couldn’t help but be tempted.

After registering everyone who wanted to order a custom card, Perry Yates got busy in the control room.

Of course, while busy, she didn’t forget to keep an eye on the powerful typhoon that had formed in the distance and was heading her way.

She had tried to make Noah’s Ark evade the powerful typhoon, but it was no use.

That damn typhoon was like it had a GPS; whenever Noah’s Ark moved, it moved too.

After a few attempts, Perry Yates decided to just give up. What was coming would come eventually.

’Instead of trying to evade it, I should just trust in Noah’s Ark. After all, it’s a five-star item—the most powerful one so far.’

’If even a five-star item can’t guarantee my safety, then I can’t imagine any other way to clear this game.’

Besides the typhoon, Perry Yates was also keeping a close watch on the Deep Sea Cannibals outside the protective shield.

These Deep Sea Cannibals were now starting to drop one-star cards upon death.

This was good news, but it was also bad news.

It meant the danger level of the Deep Sea Cannibals was increasing—a fact that was obvious from their size.

「Day 20 of the game. The typhoon arrived.」

Through the protective shield, people could clearly see the raging storm outside, like something out of an apocalypse.

By now, Solara had been completely submerged, transformed into a boundless ocean.

Fortunately, thanks to the shield, everyone aboard Noah’s Ark was fine, aside from a little rocking.

Seeing this, everyone, including the players, couldn’t help but feel relieved.

They were lucky they had chosen to board the ship. Otherwise, given the current situation, they would have had no chance of survival.

In the control room, Perry Yates stayed by the monitors. She would immediately notice any disturbance in the surrounding area.

The Deep Sea Cannibals that used to swarm around Noah’s Ark day and night were now gone. It was unclear if they had been blown away or had gone into hiding.

Still, their disappearance allowed Perry Yates to breathe a sigh of relief. ’After all, dealing with a typhoon and Deep Sea Cannibals at the same time is just too much trouble.’

「Day 21 of the game. The typhoon and rainstorm continued.」

In the control room, Perry Yates operated the Card Furnace, having finished fusing all the necessary cards. The next step was their Ascension.

「Day 22 of the game. The typhoon and rainstorm continued with no signs of weakening.」

By now, people had grown accustomed to life on Noah’s Ark and were filled with confidence in its defensive capabilities.

No matter how the storm outside battered them, the Ark remained steadfast. Some people even began to admire the spectacle.

Meanwhile, Perry Yates was still in the control room, working on Sublimation Cards.

「Day 23 of the game. The typhoon and rainstorm continued.」

Today, Perry Yates completed the Ascension for the first batch of custom three-star cards, then notified the players who had ordered them one by one.

After getting their custom cards, each player eagerly fused with them, looking eager to test them out.

Unfortunately, the storm outside showed no signs of stopping, and the surrounding Deep Sea Cannibals had all vanished. They had no targets to test their new abilities on.

In fact, with the disappearance of the Deep Sea Cannibals, these people were more disappointed than happy. After all, without the Deep Sea Cannibals, not only had they lost an important source of cards, but their quality of life had also taken a significant hit.

Most importantly, as they looked at the variety of cards the bar owner kept putting on display in the showcases, they drooled with envy.

But with no source of income, they couldn’t bring themselves to buy any.

「Day 24 of the game. The typhoon and rainstorm continued.」

On this day, Perry Yates finished the second batch of custom three-star cards.

Thanks to the massive number of Deep Sea Cannibals they had hunted before, almost everyone could afford the one-hundred-card customization fee if they gritted their teeth, especially now that it was discounted by 5%.

Besides regular cards, people were also ordering custom item cards.

Item cards came with a 10% discount, but with one condition: customers had to provide the base cards themselves. She had so many cards on hand that it was a hassle to search through them, and she couldn’t be bothered to waste her time. It was simpler to have them provide the cards they wanted to upgrade.

However, Perry Yates couldn’t guarantee what the final product of the Ascension would be; it wasn’t something she could completely control.

By saying this, Perry Yates was practically telling everyone outright that she could change a card’s level.

She didn’t mind. ’It was bound to be discovered sooner or later anyway.’

「Day 25 of the game. The typhoon and rainstorm began to gradually subside.」

Upon noticing this, nearly everyone on Noah’s Ark cheered—with the exception of the players, of course.

After all, most of them were veterans who had been through several rounds of the game. They knew full well how this survival game operated.

The NPCs thought this was a sign that the disaster was passing, but in the players’ eyes, it was obvious the survival game was just charging up for its next big move.

So, while the NPCs were cheering, nearly all the players became vigilant.

「Day 26 of the game. The typhoon and rain stopped completely, and the sky cleared up. Most importantly, the water level was steadily dropping.」

Compared to the cheering NPCs and the vigilant players, Perry Yates seemed somewhat out of place.

After finishing today’s card Ascensions, Perry Yates ate a carefully prepared lunch, lay down under a soft blanket, and rubbed her face against it.

Yes, that’s right. At noon, Perry Yates was already preparing to go to sleep.

She had been keeping to this schedule for the past few days, all to be prepared for any surprises that might happen at night.

’But judging by the current situation, the game is obviously getting ready to hit us with something big. So, during the wind-up for its ultimate move, we should be safe.’

「Day 27 of the game. The water level continued to drop.」

The water was receding so quickly that the original ruins of Solara were already becoming visible.

Seeing this, the people became even more convinced that the disaster was over. They believed the next step was to rebuild their homes.

And so, on this day, Perry Yates received quite a few requests from people wanting to disembark.
