Chapter 602 The Day of Extreme Cold

There were also two staff members who helped to pull the person out.

Ordinary people walk too slowly, so after hypnotizing one person, they might as well pull them away violently. In this way, they can hypnotize more than a hundred people in one minute, which greatly increases their efficiency.

With this prop, the chaos in the base was effectively stopped.

Many people's anxiety has been relieved and they are not so irritable anymore.

Even the probability of turning into a turbid beast has decreased significantly.

More energy is focused on stockpiling supplies.

Food, firewood, medicine.

Everything they need.

I just wonder how these people would feel when they know that there will be no food at all in the first six months of the extreme cold?

How many people will die by then?

With the arrival of extreme cold, her weed recycling was slightly affected.

In the past, people had as much fuel as they wanted, but now that they can’t find fuel to survive the winter, they have turned to weeds with a pollution level of over 40%.

The amount sold to her every day was much less.

Thinking that there would be channels to obtain energy stones after the extreme cold, Ji He did not force it.

She also hung up the purple fire crystal she had obtained in the copy before, and chose a mutant animal with talent as the exchange item.

Afraid that these people would use those radioactive fish against her, she had specifically written down that it was a talent.

Although the requirements were a bit high, Ji He's compensation was sufficient.

The extreme cold is about to come, and the time is too short. She has no confidence that she can get everything together before the extreme cold comes.

But it doesn’t matter if he can’t gather them all, Ji He can catch them in the wild himself.

Speaking of going outdoors, she had to thank the new items she had purchased when she was out of the dungeon before.

【Teleportation Compass: Can take you anywhere you want to go.

Note: Consumes energy stones. 】

With this teleportation item, she only needs to enter the coordinates to be teleported to the city where the coordinates are located.

For this purpose, she even spent 1 kilogram of grain to buy the coordinates of major cities in the world.

Just wait until needed.

There are still a lot of energy stones left from the previous upgrade space, and both the space and the small white tree are needed.

Because he didn't know the function of the small tree, Ji He gave most of it to the space for upgrading and only gave a part to the small tree.

The progress bar in the space energy stone column finally reached 51%.

At first glance, the progress was indeed very fast, but Ji He guessed that it would not be that fast. After all, the mutant animal level was enough to stop her from upgrading the space.

The white scaly tree did eat a lot of energy stones, but there was no overall change. It still looked the same, except that two lonely leaves grew on the bare branches.

Looks particularly pitiful.

Ji He didn't know how long he had to wait, and it would come slowly.

…

The temperature outside has remained at 22 degrees for the past few days and then stopped.

Some people who don't know the situation outside the base are still looking forward to the end of the natural disaster and returning to normal life, but those who know the situation outside are not so optimistic.

The original city had long been occupied by various monsters, and even if the natural disaster was over, people might not be able to reclaim the land.

What's more, those words that Wubaiyi said were like a shadow cast on everyone's hearts, making them extremely anxious and feeling that no matter how much food they stockpiled, it would not be enough.

At the beginning, people at the base could catch hundreds of kilograms of fish by rowing out for an hour. Now that there are more people, all the fish near the base have been caught. They need to row out for three hours or even longer to catch dozens of kilograms of fish.

The time spent is increasing and the rewards are decreasing.

Coupled with the heavy physical labor, everyone's appetite became huge.

If a gifted person wants to eat his fill, he can eat 15 to 20 bean cakes at each meal. If he eats steamed buns, he can probably eat 30 at one meal.

It’s scary just thinking about eating such a huge amount.

I have to increase the working time.

Those who go out fishing can't sit still, and the same goes for those who stay in the base.

The food that is collected must be tested for contamination one by one, and the edible ones must be put aside, while the inedible ones must be picked out.

After testing the contamination level, the fish and plants must be dried.

People begin to miss the extreme heat again at this time.

The sun was so strong at that time.

No matter what kind of food it is, just put it in the sun for a while to make sure it is dry.

Not like now?

It won’t dry even if you hang it in the sun for a day.

In order to prevent others from stealing food, every household has to leave someone to guard the food.

Even so, many theft cases occur every day.

At this time, in order to protect their food, they had to keep more people at home.

Several circumstances led to the fact that on this day when extreme cold arrived, many people still did not have enough food.

The time soon came for the day of the 50 billion notification.

Early in the morning, the base closed the outermost gate, and those who were still on the ground hid in their homes.

The entrance to the dungeon has also been closed.

Children and women were the first group to be sent underground, followed by families with the means.

Regardless of whether these people paid for food or earned points, they could all be allocated a resting area that was slightly larger than the one during the White Fog Period. These places were also far away from toilets and vents and were relatively better.

Finally, there are the poorest people who can’t afford anything, don’t have a penny, and only have their lives.

The base does not provide these people with free accommodation; they have to work to pay off their debts.

Extreme cold is not like white fog. If white fog remains on the ground, people can still be alive. But if it is really extreme cold, these people will have no food or cotton clothes and will just freeze to death.

The base couldn't just stand by and watch, so they had to take all these people underground. No matter what they did, as long as they had the strength, they could just dig underground and make some contribution.

These people, carrying their own food, bedding, tents and other supplies, had lined up and entered the underground as early as yesterday.

A large number of people went underground, Area A was no longer as crowded as before, and the living environment was greatly improved.

There are still many people left on the ground, and all of them have made preparations for winter in advance.

Although the life in the dungeon during the White Mist period was only two months, these two months were enough for them to resist.

This would be like spending more money on supplies, preparing more cotton clothes, charcoal, and food, just to live a comfortable life on the ground.

It's just extreme cold.

Just wear more clothes and keep warm by the fire, it will be much better than the extreme heat, right?

If you are hungry, it doesn’t matter. At worst, you can just stay at home and eat less. You will be able to get through it.

Besides, the base is not ignoring them and will sell bean cakes regularly.

These people have good ideas, but when the time comes, things may not turn out as they thought.

The base is also happy for them to take care of themselves.

The underground city just happens to be small in size, and these people are willing to stay on the ground, so let them stay on the ground.

Anyway, there are staff left on the ground.

Some of the gifted ones have the bodies of long-haired animals. These gifted ones are those who stay behind at the base to perform duties.
