But right when Chloe was about to make a deal, she opened the global chat and saw both the trading and chat groups buzzing with talk about her and her Flame Fruit.

Chloe was curious.

The chat threads had stacked up thousands of posts.

Chloe scrolled through most of the posts before she finally figured out what was going on.

It turned out that Rich DragonWolf had run into a Legendary ice monster half an hour ago.

Legendary monsters were absolutely terrifying. Just one encounter, and RichDragonWolf was hit with a bunch of high- intensity debuffs like “Extreme Cold”, “Stiffness”, “Frostbite”, and “Ultra-Low Temperature”.

These chilling debuffs had Rich DragonWolf teetering on the edge of death.

He was frozen stiff, unable to move, his flesh frostbitten.

If he took a Critical Hit, his body would shatter completely, leaving him totally numb, unable to feel anything, and his Health was forcibly capped at just 20 points.

While under the Ultra-Low Temperature debuff, no alchemical potion could have any effect on his body.

Each of those debuffs could cause a player to be one-shotted by even the weakest mobs.

At that point, Rich DragonWolf was just clutching at straws, desperately stuffing himself with everything in his system backpack.

That included Chloe’s Flame Fruit.

Everything else he ate just disappeared like it never existed, but the moment he popped Chloe’s Flame Fruit, a rush of heat blasted through his frozen veins.

The chill melted away instantly.

Warmth flooded every corner of his body, and Rich DragonWolf was floored. Most of his frostbite and low-temperature wounds were soothed by that heat.

Even all the Chilled debuffs clinging to him were wiped out in one go.

Thanks to that single Flame Fruit, Rich DragonWolf stayed debutt-free for a full 30 minutes and pulled off a comeback. taking down the Legendary monster.

Right away, RichbragonWolf posted screenshots of his status and the changes after eating the Flame Fruit

RichbragonWolf II gotta say, this fruit is the top tier item for dealing with extreme cold. Too bad the fruit’s shelf life is only 10 days

With the system status screenshots and the notification showing the Flame Fruit’s effect on the Chilled debutts, there was no way anyone could fake it

Instantly, the Flame Fruit became the hottest topic in the chat group

When Chloe first put the Flame Fruit up for sale, some folks in the chat accused her and Eureka of price gouging, saying the fruit had a short shelf life, only lasted for half an hour, and could only cure cold

Yet it was going for the price of 2 Epic arcane materials.

There were plenty of reusable items in the group, like hot water bottles, heat packs, and blankets, and none of them were nearly as expensive.

Chloe saw those comments and just ignored them.

Fruit was rare enough as it was, and it would only get rarer later on.

Anyone with a bit of sense could see Chloe’s price was fair.

Chloe quietly kept a mental list of the players who spoke up, figuring out who might be good partners in the future.

But as soon as Rich DragonWolf made his post, the group’s opinion did a complete change.

Everyone started raving about how insanely powerful the Flame Fruit was, and Chloe’s DMs were flooded with people asking for Flame Fruit to treat their unique debuffs.

Chloe knew that if a catastrophic cold snap ever hit, the price of Flame Fruit would skyrocket to a hundred times what it w

now.

Too bad the fruit’s shelf life was painfully short. The 10 Flame Fruits she had left would start rotting rapidly as soon as winter ended.

When Chloe tossed the spoiled Flame Fruit into the compost bin, the system popped up with a new description and trait. [ fruit that’s hard to keep fresh and spoils easily.]

‘If I could make a Magic Rune Refrigerator, who knows how much longer the Flame Fruit’s shelf life could be? Chloe wondered.

Chloe posted in the chat group again, announcing that she still had 2 Flame Fruits for sale.

This time, she decided to go with a silent auction.

Chloe: [Flame Fruit silent auction, only 2 left. If you’re interested, send me a private message with your offer Whoever offers the most, I’ll make the deal right away.]

Chloe realized she’d been taking the wrong approach with her trades in the chat group

She shouldn’t have been dealing in bulk items like CarpenterSoul or Minty Grass. Those were for the masses, not her style

All her goods were Premium and Rare, the kind of treasures most players would hoard and never even dream of selling

She was offering high-end loot stuff meant for the elite players at the very top

Her pricing didn’t need to factor in regular players at all

As long as Chloe made sure her stuff was top notch people would be scrambling to get the hands on it-whether they were resellers or genuinely needed her supplies

Chloe Flame Fruit can be used as a premium ingredient a restorative item, a se asosining, or even as medicine. It has special effects for certain players and as a food ingreda ut a might even have permanent preservation effects |

Just like Magu Runes were super rare for Chlor but for other players, they could take it or leave it

Chloe was convinced that out of a hundred thousand players thered defuntcly be a few with special talents related to food. Ingredients or healing news

After posting. Chloe started systematically blocking players who made offers.

Anyone trying to freeload, lowball her, or toss out absurd, unreasonable bids-Chloe blocked them all without a second thought.

She closed her inbox and decided to check back in half an hour.

After all, she wasn’t in any hurry.

Chloe kept fishing quietly, feeling oddly at peace. The horizon was blanketed in snow, and the snowfall was nearly silent

Chloe calmed herself and took out another blueprint.

The notification read: [Smoked Jerky Blueprint: Unlocks the Smoked Jerky recipe at the Forge. Allows you to build a Smoked Jerky Rack and use a special process to turn meat into Smoked Jerky, extending its shelf life.

[Quality: Premium

[Crafting Limit: 20

[Construction Requirements: 20 Premium Wooden Logs, 8 Premium Iron Ore, 5 Plant Fibers, 10 Charcoal.]

Chloe clicked to learn the blueprint.

She glanced over the materials-some Premium and some Common. She had a bunch of these random bits lying around. so she didn’t even bother counting.
