Note From Developer: I’m a big fan of Chinese web novels, but I often came across great stories with poor translations. That’s why I started this website! My goal is to make this the best web novel translation site out there. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to reach out on Discord or Instagram.

It turned out to be a pharmacist's formula!
The Hiking Potion, Ye Zhongming had heard of this in his previous life. It was a very popular artificial potion, useful for both hunting and fighting, with effects like reducing fatigue and increasing stamina.
At that time, the Hiking Potion made by a master-level pharmacist could last an entire day, and the increased endurance was said to give one a feeling of being reborn.
Indeed, the Hiking Potion couldn't be considered the top-tier artificial potion, and the formula naturally wasn't the highest quality either, but it was definitely a practical recipe. Whether for personal use or for trading, it was very decent.
The item was indeed good, but unfortunately, none of the people here could learn it as none were pharmacists. They could only set it aside for now.
Ye Zhongming then looked at the second item, which immediately made his heart race.
"Space Crystal: Capacity 1mÂł."
Space equipment?!
This item was definitely considered top-tier equipment in the apocalypse!
Although it didn't increase the owner's strength, space equipment was incredibly convenient.
The vast majority of people in the apocalypse lived a wandering life, and even those in gathering points didn’t know when they would have to leave. So what about the accumulated possessions? If one had space equipment, it would be much easier.
Moreover, space equipment had the property of being non-perishable, meaning items stored inside would maintain their freshness regardless of how long they were kept, preventing spoilage.
This allowed for the storage of food and other items with shorter shelf lives. In his previous life, Ye Zhongming knew some apocalypse merchants who specialized in selling luxury goods used space devices to transport goods, filled with freshly baked delicacies, fresh fruits and vegetables, and fresh meat and eggs—these were all highly sought after during the apocalypse.
With space equipment, essential items that needed to be carried but shouldn’t be discovered would have a place for storage. The more skilled one was, the more they needed such items.
There were many benefits, and Ye Zhongming couldn’t think of them all at the moment, but one thing couldn’t be denied: space equipment was definitely a good thing, and large space equipment was regarded as a divine artifact.
This Space Crystal was only the size of an egg, easy to carry. Although the space was only one cubic meter, it was enough to store commonly used items like magic crystals, saving the hassle of carrying a backpack, which could attract unwanted attention.
He never expected to actually acquire a piece of space equipment. Ye Zhongming, being someone who had been through it, naturally understood how rare such items were, and that rarity made them valuable.
Monster babies truly represented a shortcut to wealth in the apocalypse.
Closing the box, Ye Zhongming looked at Cheng Ze and asked, "What kind of card is that?"
"Summoning card."
Cheng Ze didn’t say much and his answer was somewhat vague.
Mo Ye's face turned red; she had left this card with Cheng Ze for safekeeping, but who would have thought that in just a few days, her instructor—this respected figure who was both a mentor and a father figure—would refuse to return it for various reasons, clearly intending to keep it for himself!
In Mo Ye's eyes, even though these treasures were seized by her and these people, they truly belonged to Ye Zhongming because from the moment they found these treasures to the point of seizing them, it was all part of Ye Zhongming's plan. She had merely completed the final step, and the majority of the credit belonged to him.
Now, because of one treasure being taken away, Mo Ye felt extremely ashamed and also somewhat disappointed in her instructor. She couldn’t understand why this person she had always respected would do something like this.
Mo Ye also felt too embarrassed to demand it back, so she could only blush and secretly blame herself for being useless.
