Global Survival: I Got the D-Rank Personnel Simulator

This time, Lin Ye didn’t put it in the basement. Instead, he placed it in the loot space.

If the Lord of Emerald Capital wanted to force him to do something, they wouldn’t need to resort to petty tricks. Keeping it on him or leaving it in the shelter didn’t make much of a difference.

Having it on him could even serve as a backup plan. Lin Ye felt a bit like a startup founder who failed and had to go back home to inherit a hundred-billion-dollar fortune.

After sorting out the loot, Lin Ye began tending to the plants and animals in the shelter, and also prepared dinner for himself.

He needed to do some menial tasks to relax his frayed nerves.

Since Little Black had returned, it had been slithering at his feet, occasionally letting out a meowing sound.

Lin Ye quickly finished making dinner. This time, he only boiled a bowl of pulled noodles for himself, but he poured half a bowl of chili oil into it.

Since he came back very early today, Lizard hadn’t disappeared yet. It crawled onto the desk and looked at Lin Ye with worried eyes.

“What are you thinking on your end? I originally planned to find a way to pull that Abyssal Evil God out of the Abyss, but now it seems like that matter isn’t so simple.”

Lin Ye looked at Lizard. The first relic he ever obtained was the Abyssal Relic Card Box, but was that really his choice?Did he choose the Card Box, or did the Card Box make him choose it?

Even under the system’s restrictions, these Card Creatures could still grant him all sorts of abilities that defied common sense. Were they truly just a part of an Abyssal Relic?

Was the Card Box the box containing the cards, or the entire package including the cards?

Lizard didn’t make a sound. It just silently stared at Lin Ye, then jumped into his noodle bowl.

“...If you want to eat noodles, just say so!”

Lin Ye had no choice but to boil himself another bowl of noodles, pour in half a bowl of chili oil again, then open the Group Chat and the Music Box to start eating.

“Finally upgraded the shelter.”

“I envy you. I’m still saving red coins.”

“Sigh, I borrowed a book from the library today, and I couldn’t understand any of the content inside. I didn’t get an Exploration Card after coming back. Good thing I still have the Maze and Station cards, or I’d have been totally screwed this time.”

“That’s really unlucky. Couldn’t you borrow a book you can actually read?”

“Wasn’t I trying to find a suitable mission? Who else goes to the library to read books for fun?”

“Couldn’t you just borrow the book back to the shelter?”

“Ha, do you even know how expensive it is to borrow a book back to the shelter?”

“Guys, don’t borrow books from the library. I borrowed one too, and I couldn’t understand most of the content inside. Even though I got an Exploration Card, the Exploration Mission had nothing to do with that book. Might as well just eat at the Cafeteria.”

“The books in the library are basically knowledge-based. They’re like college textbooks—if you don’t get it, you don’t get it. And the difficulty and abstraction are way beyond college textbooks. If you don’t have some level of knowledge, don’t waste your red coins there.”

“Because Brother Lin’s first trip was to the library, I thought the library had no traps...”

“For Brother Lin, there really isn’t a trap.”

“Brother Lin probably never thought someone wouldn’t even be able to read a book.”

“True.”

...

After finishing his pulled noodles, Lin Ye closed the Group Chat and the Music Box, washed up, and lay down on the bed.

He planned to rest early today.

Recently, he had acquired a large amount of spiritual energy crystals, so he no longer needed to leech spiritual energy from the Game Room.

He could raise his spiritual energy user tier at any time now, but before advancing to a high-level spiritual energy user, he still had to find a suitable mental world to plant his Seed of Spirit.

After turning off the lights, Little Black quietly slithered onto Lin Ye’s bed. It was a bit afraid of being caught by that hand again.

Lin Ye stroked Little Black’s soft epidermis, closed his eyes, and quickly sank into that soft darkness.

…………………………………

“My turn! Draw a card!”

The next morning, Lin Ye leaped out of bed and began his daily card draw.

The card face this time was a crocodile with reddish epidermis. The card dissipated, and a small red crocodile appeared in the center of the shelter.

The little crocodile wagged its tail, crawled over to Lin Ye, then closed its eyes and lay down on the tiles.

“You don’t like talking either?”

Lin Ye touched the crocodile’s head. The texture of the epidermis felt a bit strange.

Seeing that the crocodile showed no intention of opening its eyes, Lin Ye started preparing breakfast.

After a simple breakfast, Lin Ye entered the Rule Mining Area and began mining.

With the Rule Mining Area, Lin Ye could clearly feel that he had adapted much better to rule power. It had also become a bit easier to use Rule Fragments.

He could even extract Rule Crystals from Rule Fragments, or even improve the completeness of the Rule Fragments.

But to completely restore a Rule Fragment, the Rule Mining Area alone wasn’t enough. He needed more Rule Fragments.

After finishing his mining, Lin Ye returned to the shelter, lay down on the bed, and began his daily simulation.

“You wouldn’t happen to be the Lord of Dreams, and I’ll have to inherit the dreams someday, would you?”

Lin Ye sat on the edge of the hospital bed, eating fruit that had been carved into the shape of Mia.

“If I were the Lord of Dreams, I wouldn’t be trapped in a place like this. And the master of dreams isn’t called the Lord of Dreams either.”

The young girl blinked, handing Lin Ye the fruit she had just peeled.

“That’s good. I don’t want to have deep connections with all the dangerous Planes.”

Lin Ye breathed a slight sigh of relief. If the young girl admitted she was the Lord of Dreams, he might really be doomed later.

“Although I’m not the Lord of Dreams, you don’t think the trouble on my end is any easier than becoming the Lord of Dreams, do you?”

The young girl curled the corners of her mouth, her smile carrying a deep meaning.

“So, are you some kind of Lord of the Mental World?”

Lin Ye felt a bit of a headache. He had originally thought his situation wasn’t too bad, but now he realized that the troubles around him were all top-tier.

“There is no master of the mental world, and no one can become its master. But my troubles are indeed related to the mental world. The Dream World can barely be considered an orderly mental world, so you’d better prepare yourself mentally.”

The young girl placed a plate of Mia-shaped fruit in front of Lin Ye. The Mia shapes on it made all sorts of random noises.

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll become the Lord of Emerald Capital and then stop helping you with your business?”

Lin Ye asked curiously.

“The Lord of Emerald Capital isn’t so easy to become. If you really became the Lord of Emerald Capital, that would be a good thing for me. I wouldn’t need your help with my matters anymore.”

The young girl replied with a smile.
