Saving System: Calm Down, My Fleeing Host!

Chapter 313 - 305: Underground City Construction 15

Not letting Miss Cheng owe a huge favor, it was just cleared so easily.

Han Yi felt frustrated but could only grumble silently, unable to voice his complaints.

The master is so difficult to manage!

He’s exhausted.

Knowing he cannot let his master sit back and wait for doom, he took the initiative to speak.

"Previously, the Hemostatic Medicine Miss Cheng made indeed had miraculous effects. Many of our brothers owe their lives to Miss Cheng’s Hemostatic Medicine, it’s unknown how many lives were saved by it. There’s no mutual offset; we should be the ones thanking you."

Han Yi’s words were very eloquent, instantly blocking Cheng Xiaoxiao’s intended words.

"Commander Han is too kind."

This reminded her of the squad that fought desperately for her in the town, especially Leng Er who was seriously injured and even sacrificed a squad member. She had promised to repay them, but had almost forgotten the long-standing favor, so she spoke up, "Please wait for me a moment."

As she walked towards her room, she communicated with the system in her mind, wondering what gift to give those lovely young men.

Recently, her Gratitude Points have been increasing rapidly, accumulating quite a number of System Coins, making her somewhat wealthy.

"What does the host want to choose?"

"I don’t know either."

Once back in her room, she opened the character panel, browsed the mall, and checked what good items they might be able to use.

She scrolled through pages but didn’t find any products that suited her.

The identities of ancient Hidden Guards and assassins should have similarities with modern Special Forces or mercenaries.

Often getting hurt during missions, they’ve already got medicine for injuries, so it’s about guns and bulletproof vests. Guns are impossible to give them, and as for bulletproof vests, they’re not very reliable. People here cultivate Inner Strength; a single palm strike might leave the skin unscathed yet severely damage the internal organs.

What else besides these?

"The host can look at outdoor sports gear; military-grade items, we’re not at the right Level."

The system didn’t mention that they don’t have enough money either, so looking at them would only trigger longing.

Remembering the pages she’d browsed before, Cheng Xiaoxiao twitched her lips, either requiring Level Ten purchase authority or hitting prices in the millions.

Unbearable...

After flipping through many pages, Cheng Xiaoxiao’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Oh!

How come she didn’t think of this?

What a misstep; despite the snowfall lasting so long, she hadn’t realized a serious issue, snow blindness.

Snow blindness occurs after engaging in skiing and other outdoor activities or exposure to strong ultraviolet radiation, leading to eye discomfort and possibly blurred vision.

Though the hills are covered in snow, the presence of tree branches causes some visual differences, making her overlook this aspect.

If she could give each of them goggles, they could walk in the snow for long periods without suffering snow blindness and losing direction.

The blizzards are only going to get heavier and won’t stop for months, making them just right for now.

According to her understanding, some multifunctional goggles are widely useful, not only blocking ultraviolet rays and strong light but also protecting against rain, fog, and providing night vision.

Thinking about this made her get excited.

Finding outdoor gear led her to easily find the goggles, and reading the functionality introduction made her eyes sparkle.

On the panel, the product’s description was written: ’Han Ye Goggles’.

Features: Anti-fog, impact resistant, wind and sand proof, splash proof, UV proof, imitation light curing lamp.

So many features; scrolling down, every pair of goggles had similar functions.

Until Cheng Xiaoxiao reached the final goggles description: ’Vienna Nano Goggles’.

Features: In addition to basic full functionality, specially protects against radioactive substances, anti-formaldehyde sulfate, bulletproof reinforcement, thermal ion resolution, kilometer communication feature.

Seeing these made Cheng Xiaoxiao marvel at the high-tech product and, when seeing the bottom claim of solar charging within two minutes above 35 degrees for two hours of use, she became completely unsettled.

Is this not custom-made for me?

Moreover, there was a surprise; this goggles model was on a year-end return activity, the more you buy, the more discount you get.

Clicked on the detail page, a red font highlighted the sale details: Two items for a 10% discount, three to five items for 20% off, six to ten items for 25% off.

If there weren’t people outside, Cheng Xiaoxiao would have laughed three times.

Great.

System: "Host, check the price."

Uh! The price was indeed ’pleasing’, ordinary goggles costing eight or nine hundred each, whereas this model priced at 2080 each, several times more.

But luckily, with discounts she could save a lot, the timing couldn’t have been better during the last day of the sale.

Looking at the payment confirmation window, Cheng Xiaoxiao painfully pressed down.

Entirely 23400 System Coins, suddenly cleaning her out, if not for bundled discounts she couldn’t afford it, deeply inhaling, heart doesn’t ache, mind doesn’t ache, this is a life-saving favor.

Giving up is having gain; continually consoling herself for a while, she finally ignored the now three-figure balance.

Holding the newly acquired items, she began planning.

She purchased fifteen in total, one for each of Leng Er’s squad members, one for Leng Qi, one for Yanlan, one for Commander Han.

The remaining two were kept for her own team; if she had more money, she would equip each member of the Patrol Team with one.

Once again becoming a poor soul, after briefly lamenting, she perked up and stepped out of her room.

Seeing Miss Cheng hold a strange box as she came out, Han Yi couldn’t help but stretch his neck with curiosity.

Thinking about the magical telescope, he couldn’t help but swallow, "Miss Cheng, what good item is this?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao mysteriously smiled, "Hmm, the best thing."

She took out a pair of goggles and put them on, having already read the instructions before coming out, she felt carefully a moment, and it indeed was extraordinary.

With the goggles on, Cheng Xiaoxiao exuded a certain aura, three parts mystery, shining with a deeper, enigmatic charm when she smiled brightly, "Mr. Yan, this item is called goggles, with many uses, given to the brothers who helped last time."

Han Yi was surprised, isn’t this a gift for his master?

Seeing Han Yi’s puzzlement, Cheng Xiaoxiao raised her mouth confidently, "Back in Yanzhou County, amid bandit chaos, Captain Leng bravely protected and made escape possible, later saving everyone in Qingshan Village; without them, there wouldn’t be today’s 132th Regiment. This deep favor leaves the young girl deeply appreciative; previously busy fleeing, there was nothing decent to give. Now you’re here just in time, hopefully, they won’t dislike this belated gift."

Understanding the story, Han Yi naturally wanted to speak on behalf of his master.

"Miss Cheng speaks too modestly; their duty is to follow the Pavilion Master’s orders; if they dared disobey..." they wouldn’t have good results.

Han Yi: What accomplishments do those little bastards have? If not for my master’s orders, would they be so dedicated? Thanks should go to the master.

Pity Han Yi’s wishful thinking fed the dog.
