Fang Er slumped back onto the sofa, rubbing his head and chuckling foolishly.
The items the system had generated this time were so valuable that they were worth crashing ten times over, let alone once.
He had to admit, the system was incredibly thoughtful, always providing exactly what he wished for.
Trawler, purse seiner, tuna longliner, squid jigger, pole-and-line vessel.
Container ship, icebreaker, reefer ship, piling barge, hovercraft.
The first page, a full ten different types of ships, filled Fang Er with an indescribable joy.
The first three types of ships had appeared for the third time, and he was one more refresh away from unlocking them.
More importantly, these ships could catch vast quantities of fish, solving the Great Tang's imminent drought and food shortage crisis – they were as crucial as receiving help in a snowstorm.
After redeeming all of them, Fang Er tapped to the next page.
However, after just a glance, his interest vanished.
What the hell, a whole page of models! It was preposterous!
Even though they were models of warships, what use did he have for a bunch of ship models?
These weren't helicopters; their simple structures could allow him to deduce the actual objects from the models.
With a scowl, he redeemed them all, thinking they could serve as toys for Fang Xin later.
Comforting himself with this thought, he prepared to click the yellowish button for one last refresh.
But at that very moment, the system interface, which resembled a water curtain, suddenly became chaotic.
It was like a scratched CD, with countless dots of static shaking back and forth across the entire screen.
Then, a system prompt abruptly sounded.
Ding~~ System error! Exchange module has a severe bug!
Ding~~ System is undergoing repair!
Ding~~ Repair failed!
Ding~~ Exchange module is about to crash~~
Ding~~ Forcibly shutting down exchange module!
Ding~~ Exchange module closed successfully!
Ding~~ System is rebooting!
Ding~~ System reboot complete! Exchange module is no longer usable!
The string of prompts made Fang Er's scalp tingle. What the hell, would it crash him too?
Damn it! It wastes my refresh attempts, shuts down my exchange module, and this idiotic system even has the audacity to justify itself?
System: You idiot, dare to talk back? If it wasn't for me sacrificing my own arm to save your warehouse, you wouldn't even know what you missed out on by now!
Fang Er: ???
Warehouse?
Holy cow!
Upon hearing the system mention the warehouse, he quickly opened it to check its contents.
This was where he stored a large amount of supplies. Ever since the last upgrade, he had intended to retrieve and store everything he redeemed.
But later, as things accumulated, some items were too inconvenient to retrieve and reveal to the public, so he gradually abandoned the idea of having multiple hiding places.
Damn it, could it be that it wiped everything clean like last time during the upgrade?
It contained the 30 ships he had just exchanged!
Fortunately, after opening it, nothing in the warehouse was missing, and Fang Er breathed a sigh of relief.
Damn, it scared him to death.
System: Idiot, you only look for what's missing, can't you see what's been added? Why did I end up with a host like you, I must have had terrible luck for eight lifetimes!
What the?
Added something?
He quickly scanned the warehouse again, item by item.
Durex, underwear, various toys~~
Cigars, cigarettes, various liquors~
Tires, motorcycles, off-road vehicles~
Hardware tools~~~
~~~
He continued until he reached the fishing boats he had just exchanged, finding nothing obviously amiss.
So, Fang Er's gaze fell upon the pile of ship models he had just acquired. Could the problem lie here?
Battleship models, cruiser models, destroyer models.
Frigate models, Varyag aircraft carrier, missile boat models.
Submarine chaser models, minelayer models, minesweeper models.
Torpedo boat models.
A pile of models, no problem, right?
Models?
Huh? Damn it! No!
Fang Er stared disbelievingly at one of the icons, until his eyes bulged as big as a cow's, finally confirming a fact that almost drove him mad.
The Varyag!
Damn it, this one was the real thing!
For 100 points, he had acquired the Varyag aircraft carrier!
This system must have collapsed due to losses, right??
And that's why it shut down the exchange system??
Was it trying to cut its losses??
It lost its pants, didn't it?
When there's a benefit, acting humble is where the joy lies~~
System: Get lost, I'm in a state of emotional distress~~~
Hahahaha, heeheehee~~~
Gagaga, hoohoohoo~~
Fang Er was almost possessed. That was the Varyag aircraft carrier! An aircraft carrier!
In later generations, this was a mobile territory!
And in the present, this was an existence that could sweep aside everything!
As for the exchange system being gone, so be it. It's important to be content in life, right?
Hehehehe.
He let out manic, demonic laughter within, so loud that even Chai Lingwu outside could hear it.
What's wrong with this brother-in-law?
He'd been inside for so long, and now he was emitting such chilling laughter. Could it be that he was frustrated and had gone mad?
Worried, Chai Lingwu began banging on the glass door.
But Fang Er, engrossed in the aircraft carrier's data, paid him no mind.
Full length: 304 meters
Full width: 70.5 meters
Displacement: 57,000 tons
As soon as he saw this, Chai Lingwu kicked the glass door, shattering it.
The huge commotion also pulled Fang Er's attention back to reality. Seeing the nervous Chai Lingwu, Fang Er just wanted to share his joy.
He lunged over to Chai Lingwu, hugging him tightly, excitedly exclaiming, "Second Brother, hahahaha~~"
Chai Lingwu's mind went blank. It's over!
His brother-in-law had definitely developed a problem.
He had heard that after marrying his sister, he only took one concubine. He must have been too frustrated and gone mad from sexual frustration?
