[System Notification: You have sold the burning charcoal x 1, obtained wood x 1.]
[System Notification: You have sold the burning charcoal x 1, obtained wood x 1.]
…
The system notification kept ringing, and the dozen or so sets of burning charcoal on Mcgee’s shelves were instantly snatched up.
In the world channel, those who did not manage to snatch the fire seeds immediately urged.
“Brothers who got the flame, if you ignite the furnace, hurry up and put the charcoal on the shelf again. Don’t waste it!”
“Right, right! Don’t let big boss Mcgee suffer too much!”
“This is a good idea. This way, the flame can be circulated forever.”
“Whenever it’s difficult, big boss Mcgee always stands up in time. So, big boss Mcgee, are you an angel?”
“Very timely, Mcgee! Big brother bullsh*t!”
Just like that, with Mcgee’s help, almost everyone had obtained a precious source of the fire.
They also had the confidence and capital to fight against the cold.
Mcgee did not care about this. Instead, he picked up the steak that had already been roasted on the grill and began to enjoy it in big mouthfuls.
At this time, the little Spirit Fox was curled up on the big bed, sleeping very soundly.
It had already eaten a portion of raw meat, and with all the hard work it had done today, it had long fallen asleep.
Time gradually passed.
The firewood in the stove was crackling non-stop.
But it was warm, but the smoke was too smelly, right?
“Cough cough cough! Brothers, I’m almost turning into bacon!”
“Yeah, the smoke is too smelly!”
“Ah? You still have wood to burn? My wood is almost gone!”
“What? The wood is being consumed so quickly? Where did I get so much wood!”
“I don’t have any wood either. What should I do? The fire is going out!”
“F*ck! I threw my clothes in, but the fire is still going out! What should I do!”
Those who had not stored anything for the past two days and had exchanged wood for things had all tasted the bitter fruit.
Some people burned their coats and underwear to prevent the fire from going out.
Some people even took off the door boards and the thatch on the roof of the wooden house to throw into the furnace.
However, there was still not enough fuel, and the fire was in danger of going out at any time.
Lucas looked at the extinguished furnace and was dumbfounded.
He did not expect that the furnace would consume so much wood, but his wood had long been used to exchange food.
If he had known, he would not have put out the firewood outside the house!
Moreover, he had been exploring for the past two days where the wood would come from!
Looking at the completely extinguished stove, Lucas gave up.
Although his fighting strength was powerful, it was night now. If he did not have the help of his tamed beast to guard, he would not dare to go out and collect wood casually.
Thus, Lucas could only curl up on the straw mat and rely on his strong physical quality to survive the long cold night.
When he finally could not endure it, he could only hug his fiery bear to keep warm.
At this moment, a picture was suddenly uploaded to the world channel.
In a furnace, pieces of red charcoal were burning fiercely.
There was a barbeque grill on top of the stove, and a steak was sizzling with oil.
Mcgee said, “The best smokeless charcoal has been put on the shelves in the community!”
“Wow! Big boss Mcgee finally spoke!”
“I would like to call you the Eternal God!”
“Big boss, are you really a mortal? Such a harsh living environment. Why do you look like you’re on vacation!”
“Comparing people is infuriating!”
“I suddenly understand why those people keep ridiculing boss Mcgee. It’s because they’re jealous!”
“No! It’s because of the roasted meat!”
Mcgee said, “The beef has also been served 100 times. So everyone, first come, first served!”
“What, there’s beef? It looks like we’ll be able to eat roasted beef tonight!”
“Everyone, charge!”
The world channel instantly became a mess.
Opening up the community, there was indeed charcoal and beef for sale.

“D*mn, even though it’s a little dark this time, I admit it!”
“Boss, I don’t have enough ability now. I don’t need it, so I’ll give it to you. It’s my way of repaying you!”
“I also have a blueprint that I don’t know what it’s for. I gave it to you too!”
“Haha, I got the beef!”
Mcgee looked at it and was a little expectant. These guys did not need the blueprint. What was it?
“System Notification: You have sold semi-finished charcoal x 1. You have obtained Beast Pattern Short Knife Blueprint!”
