Surviving Underground: Super Prompting System - Chapter 28

After making sure that there were no other dangers around, the gluttonous Pistachio dragged the Ghost-Faced Butterfly’s corpse to Joseph.

“Oh my God, there’s really nothing I can do with you!”

Looking at the eager Pistachio, Joseph had no choice but to trade for some wood. He lit a simple bonfire and built a simple grill to place the Ghost-Faced Butterfly’s corpse on it.

The tempting smell of roasted meat spread in the air as the fire burned,

“Can this thing really be eaten?”

Even though the smell of roasted meat was very tempting, when Joseph thought of the poison powder on its wings, he did not have any thoughts of trying it.

To lose his life just to eat it, no matter how he looked at it, was not worth it.

“Do you really want to eat it?”

Joseph asked Pistachio, who was standing beside him. Pistachio did not want to give up.

Pistachio hesitated for a moment before it bit the Ghost-Faced Butterfly cautiously. Then, it spat it out in disgust. Pistachio did not even want to look at it anymore.

“I can’t let it go to waste like this!”

Joseph thought about it and decided to place it on the trading platform to trade. The trading platform would naturally judge whether it was poisonous,

[Trade Item: Roasted Ghost-Faced Butterfly Meat x 2000g]

[Trade Requirement: Item Crafting Blueprint, clothing type can not be traded ]

According to Pistachio’s reaction, Joseph already knew that the taste of the Ghost-Faced Butterfly was difficult to describe, but thinking about it, many people would definitely buy food just to fill their stomachs. They probably would not care too much about the taste, right?

Joseph felt that the terms he offered were already very low. No matter what, the Ghost-Faced Butterfly was still a Magical Beast. At the very least, he had to show some respect to it.

[Successful Deal: Simple Barricade Blueprint obtained.]

[Simple Barricade: you can use wood to make a Simple Barricade. It has a certain level of defense and can block certain attacks from Magic Beasts.]

[Crafting Requirements: wood x 20]

[Remarks: With this blueprint, you can make 10 barricades. You have 9/10 uses.]

This was the first time Joseph had seen a blueprint that could be used repeatedly. However, he was not very happy that it had been used.

This bastard who traded with me actually used it once and exchanged it for an entire large Ghost-Faced Butterfly. When had I, Emperor Joseph, ever been at a disadvantage?

“I curse that he won’t be able to stand the taste of the Ghost-Faced Butterfly!”

Just as Joseph was leading Pistachio to continue exploring, Bruce, who had just traded with Joseph, looked at the large Ghost-Faced Butterfly in front of him and laughed happily.

“So this is magical beast meat. Joseph, that idiot, actually traded such a precious item for the blueprint. I, Bruce, have never seen such a stupid fellow. What kind of bullsh*t boss is he? Haha!”

Bruce mocked as he tore off a piece of roasted meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

“This is simply…”

Bruce smelt the aroma of the roasted meat. When the roasted meat entered his mouth, an indescribable taste immediately stimulated his taste buds.

Canned herring? Icelandic shark meat? Compared to this taste, they were incomparably delicious.

Clutching his neck, Bruce used his hands to hold his throat crazily, wanting to spit out the meat that he had just swallowed.

However, it had no effect at all.

After drinking water, eating chili, and a series of other methods, the already hopeless Bruce lay on the ground, grinding his teeth and swearing.

“Damn Joseph, if I meet you, I will definitely stuff the entire Ghost-Faced Butterfly into your stomach, and I will let you slowly taste it. I swear to God, I will definitely do it!”

While Joseph was exploring the unknown area, he was holding a shovel and digging into the ground. After walking less than ten meters, Joseph had already received a system notification. It as expected of an uninhabited area,

Although it was an F-Grade Treasure Chest, it was still useful.

It was just a matter of a few digs.

When the shabby wooden treasure chest appeared in Joseph’s line of sight, Joseph did not even bother to take it out of the pit. He directly opened the treasure chest in the pit.

[Opening F-Grade Treasure Chest: canned herring x 1 obtained.]

Canned herring?

Joseph looked at the exquisite canned food in front of him and immediately shivered.

He thought back to those years. He was young and ignorant. After experiencing it in high spirits, he vomited for an entire day. In the end, even seeing it made him feel nauseous.

The past was unbearable to look back on. If he continued to talk about it, he would be in tears.

Joseph had no intention of tasting this kind of overly stimulating food. Without saying anything, he directly threw it onto the trading platform. The price was even terrifyingly low.

[Trade Item: canned herring x 1]

[Trade Requirement: anything]

[Trade Remarks: I hope you will like it!]

However, when Joseph closed the trading platform, he did not realize that it was in the Auction Mode.

Due to this, the entire trading platform went crazy. However, Joseph did not know about it.

“There’s a passage here!”

Joseph found a passage on the wall not far away as Joseph continued to explore. He was prepared to explore it.

The system prompted him again: [There’s an E-Grade Treasure Chest x 1 and the corpse of a Ghost-Faced Butterfly ten meters ahead of us.]

Another ghost-faced butterfly. Joseph really had no energy to complain. Should he put it up on the trading platform again and make others suffer?

Joseph lit up his torch and walked into the passage.

Sure enough, he did not take too many steps before he saw a huge Ghost-Faced Butterfly lying on the ground. This one was even bigger than the previous one.

“I really don’t know how such a disgusting Magical Beast could exist!”

Joseph said with disdain, “It’s such a waste of food to grow such a big body!”

“Forget about the barbecue, just throw it directly to the trading platform!”

Joseph could not be bothered to deal with it at all. He directly threw it to the trading platform at the same price.

This time, the one who bought it was actually Bruce. Moreover, he was afraid that other people would snatch it, so he instantly bought it.

This made Joseph exclaim, “Oh my God, there’s actually someone who has such weird tastes. I can’t imagine it, I can’t even comment on it!”

At this moment, Joseph’s private message suddenly rang. He saw that it was actually Bruce who had just bought his two Ghost-Faced Butterflies. Bruce said, “Joseph, you’re simply the worst profiteer I’ve ever seen. I’ll definitely let you have a taste of that terrifying taste. This time, I’ll keep the Ghost-Faced Butterflies I bought from you until the day I meet you!”

Joseph raised his eyebrows. If he knew that I had just put up another can of herring, would he be so angry that he would explode on the spot?

‘Besides, I didn’t force you to buy it. Why are you blaming me?’

At this time, Bruce was sitting on the Ghost-Faced Butterfly, participating in the auction of the can of herring. He crazily increased the price, he gritted his teeth and cursed, “Damn Joseph, where did you get so many terrible things? I must make you eat all of them, I must…”
