ToxicReaper didn’t have Riley’s insane combat skills. Trekking through the muddy swamp took him a lot of effort.

“Burger! You alright?”

ToxicReaper scrambled up onto the platform. He let out a breath of relief at the sight of loot crates scattered all over the ground.

“You’re as reliable as ever, Burger.”

A soft smile spread across Riley’s face the second she spoke to her friend. She shifted back to her usual easygoing self.

“Alright. Let’s check what junk they had on them.”

Riley put away her dual axes and nodded at the loot crates left behind after the bodies vanished.

“You go first, Burger.”

“It’s fine, we’ll split it together.”

Riley picked up four loose light crossbow bolts and checked their stats.

[Gust Light Crossbow (Blue)]

[Stats: Attack +4, Constitution +1]

[Special Effect: Knocks the target back slightly on hit.]

It was blue-grade gear with pretty average stats.

Riley then started going through the enemy loot crates. She hadn’t expected to find anything good, until ToxicReaper suddenly yelled out in shock.

“Whoa, Burger! I found a blueprint!”

ToxicReaper pulled a faint blue glowing parchment out of a crate and handed it to Riley excitedly.

Riley glanced down at the blueprint.

ToxicReaper’s eyes lit up at the sight of the crystal. It was a rare item, so he kept quiet and didn’t ask for it, not wanting to overstep.

“Take this crystal, along with these materials and coins.

Riley could tell what he was thinking. She pushed the leftover items straight into his arms.

ToxicReaper felt a little awkward.

Riley had done all the fighting. By the time he arrived, she had already taken down every last enemy.

“Just take it.”

Riley casually sat down on the edge of the platform, her long legs dangling in the air. “I can tell you want this crystal. It’s useless to me, and I’ve already got more than enough materials.

“We’re in the same guild. We’re not strangers. The stronger you get, the stronger our guild is.”

Warmth spread through ToxicReaper’s chest after hearing her words.

He stopped being hesitant, stored away the items, and plopped down beside Riley.

In the center of the platform, a resource crystal pillar flickered with bright white light.

[High-Grade Resource Node: Occupation In Progress…]

[Previous Owner Guild: Black Palm]

[Remaining Conversion Time: 01:45:32]

Since Black Palm had claimed this spot beforehand, Hope Guild needed nearly two hours to fully take control of the resource node.

Riley had nothing else to do, so she decided to stay put. Someone needed to guard the point during conversion, and they had to watch out for a counterattack from Black Palm.

Still, Riley doubted those guys had the guts to come back.

A foul, damp breeze swept across the swamp, gently tossing Riley’s hair.

“ToxicReaper.”

Riley suddenly broke the silence.

foxicReaper had told her these players were low level, around Level 15. Their gear was nowhere near Riley’s standard. She had total confidence in beating them.

That crossbow has a knockback effect,” ToxicReaper explained.

This swamp is nothing but mud. My heavy shield can block the shots, but I can barely move forward. Every step gets me knocked back.

Even when I throw potions over, their poison resistance renders them useless. This 65-foot swamp is such a pain.”

On the right burner, a pot of creamy mushroom soup bubbled steadily. The milky white broth churned, giving off a thick, warm dairy scent.

A nearby oven chimed with a crisp ding.

Wearing heat-resistant gloves, Riley pulled out a large tray of freshly baked bread. The crust was crispy while the inside stayed soft and fluffy. She had kneaded the dough from wheat harvested by Joseph. After fermenting overnight, the bread turned out perfectly.

To keep the meal balanced, she made a simple broccoli skillet.

Her cooking skills were nothing extraordinary, but the fresh ingredients made every dish look incredibly appetizing.

“Lunch is ready!”

Riley carried the abundant food over to the dining table.

“Wooah. It smells so good!”

Neeko was already sitting politely in her chair, holding a knife and a fork. She stared eagerly at the sizzling steak, practically drooling.

Ash claimed a corner of the table without hesitation. A huge iron basin full of fresh raw meat sat in front of him. It buried its head and ate greedily, letting out satisfied rumbling sounds every now and then.

In stark contrast, the treant sat quietly in the yard. After a busy morning, the little creature basked lazily in the warm sunlight.

While eating lunch, Riley habitually raised her hand and opened the system holographic interface.

She first tapped into the internal chat channel for Hope Guild.

Everyone had done an amazing job. She wanted to motivate them with this simple reward

system.

After that, Riley stretched and decided to take a walk outside.

Joseph’s group had already started their daily work.

The moment she stepped out of the camp gate, she saw them working beside the outer wall. Lily and Anna stood awkwardly nearby, joining in the labor.

Joseph must have told them all they only needed to work hard while staying at Riley’s camp, so the two women kept busy without slacking off.

“Hey Jeff, hold that pickaxe tight! Stop dragging your feet!”

Joseph carried two huge canvas bags and directed his two nephews toward the mine.

Riley’s kindness never made them lazy or reliant on her. Instead, they worked even harder, terrified of letting her down.

To repay Riley for taking them in, Joseph mined coal with such crazy dedication that even a greedy capitalist would be impressed.

Riley barely mined coal on her own these days. She left all the mining work to Joseph and his nephews.

After gathering resources, they stacked the coal in open wooden crates at the mine entrance. Piley simply collected the crates into her inventory whenever she passed by.

he fuel gauge showed one quarter fuel left, enough for roughly 18 miles.

She only managed to find one barrel of gasoline while looting the WarWolf Guild’s camp. The fuel was almost empty now, and she had not discovered any new oil sources. Every drop was precious.
