Just as Yu Miaomiao picked up her phone to check the game link message, her vision went dark, and in the blink of an eye, she found herself inside a post-apocalyptic survival game — Desert Surviv...
Chapter 107 Desert Survival Day 12 (3) What happened last night...
Yu Miaomiao was still thinking about Hua Bie. The two of them had never added each other as friends, but because the previous message did not stay overnight, the temporary dialog box was still there, and there was no reply from Hua Bie in it.
No matter how busy he is, he should have seen the news after so long. Is he really injured?
If he was injured, he would have to be seriously injured to not be able to reply to messages, so, what happened to him?
Yu Miaomiao left him another message, asking if he was injured and if he needed a medical kit.
After leaving the message, she reported her safety in the three-person group chat. Unexpectedly, when she opened it, Api also sent a greeting message.
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, baby Lulu, good morning! We have lived another happy day!"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Good morning, did you get up at dawn? Were you injured last night?"
"Is Pipi here? It's been daybreak here for a while now, and I just finished exercising. Even though I figured out how to use an excavator to shovel monsters, I still got injured. I used a bandage and it healed quickly, hehe. Could you please make a balance bike for me today? It'll be free. Just let me know what ore you need! I'll start digging for ore now!"
Yu Miaomiao discovered that Api's thoughts were always jumping.
"Meow Meow: Sure, give me the materials. I'm a bit low on scrap metal right now. Do you have any extra? Is this something hard to dig up? But you're injured, so why did you ask for a self-balancing scooter? Could it be that you've discovered another use for it for monster hunting?"
"Is Pipi here? I have over 200 pieces of scrap iron. Is that enough? Scrap iron is a byproduct of iron ore that can occasionally be mined together. Can I have 70 pieces of scrap iron as a processing fee?"
"Is Pipi here? Last night, more and more monsters appeared here. It was very difficult for me to fight them alone. I wanted to ride my balance bike faster so I could meet up with Ziren sooner."
Last night, Yu Miaomiao also fought monsters alone. For her, it was not only difficult, but also impossible to fight against. If Api could handle it alone, it meant that Api was indeed very strong.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: 50 pieces of scrap metal will be enough. Just give me the materials."
"Meow Meow is Not Short of Water: Oh, right, I just checked and found that there are already a lot of people who can make toilet paper rolls, and the profit margin is already very thin. If you don't start taking it today, I won't do this alone. It's a bit too time-consuming."
"Is Pipi here? Okay, I'm on a trip soon and don't have much time to chat about these trivial orders. Sister Miaomiao, how long can I ride the balance bike once?"
"Meow Meow isn't short of water: I can last about half an hour on flat ground and uphill, and then I need to replenish my energy. Riding a balance bike requires a lot of special materials. However, I just learned how to make a small energy storage battery, which can provide 10 minutes of battery life for all mechanical devices. However, if the battery runs out, I haven't found a way to recharge it, so it's a disposable item for now."
"Is Pipi here? I see. It's not suitable for me to climb the sand dunes in this heat. I can only do it at night. Hey, Ziren has been telling me to stay put lately, saying it's unsafe out there. But he's clearly moving closer to me. Does that mean he's safe? His fighting skills aren't as good as mine, and I often knock him down at school."
"Pangpang: Good morning, Sister Meow Meow. I fought too late last night and just woke up now. I'll make a planter box for you now."
"Pangpang: Ah Pi, are you sure it was you who knocked Ziren down, and not him letting you do it?"
"Is Pipi here? Humph, I'm definitely the best. How was Lulu's battle last night?"
Yu Miaomiao slept intermittently throughout the night, but she didn't know whether it was because of the doomsday or because of practicing the tortoise breathing technique, but she was very energetic now. She decided to prepare more things while it was still early. The first thing she did was to confirm the situation of the first sandstorm after dawn.
"Within 5 kilometers, the next sandstorm will arrive in 58 minutes and 12 seconds and is expected to last 45 minutes."
“Ding ding.”
"Hua Bie: I was so tired from entertaining so many people last night, I found a safe place to sleep and just woke up now. I didn't see your message, sorry."
Finally received his message. Yu Miaomiao thought he was going to die, but unexpectedly he was just sleeping too soundly. But why did he use the word "teasing"? Was he so light-hearted last night?
Knowing that he was fine, she felt relieved. Just as she was about to ask about what happened last night, he took the initiative to talk.
"Hua Bie: I'm setting off the yellow smoke bomb from quite far away, so you might not be able to see it clearly. This flare is for those who want to follow me."
Yu Miaomiao first harvested the pig grass that she had not had time to harvest last night, while replying to his message.
[System prompt: Congratulations to the player Miaomiao for harvesting the special plant - Pigweed. Your wisdom value increases by 1.]
Plant lettuce seeds again in the empty planting columns and water them.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Were you injured last night? Are you okay now?"
Yu Miaomiao just found a recipe: lettuce, hard-boiled egg*1, grilled chicken*2, and seasoning salt*3, which is a fourth-level food - running salad.
After remaking a fire, Yu Miaomiao prepared to boil 7 eggs in her backpack and roast 14 pieces of chicken to prepare salad for a week. Finally, she could boil the filtered water from the boiled eggs and drink it herself.
The sun rose little by little, and the temperature gradually increased. It was not too hot to light the fire now. Yu Miaomiao had something else to eat in her hands, but she wanted to increase her physical strength quickly. The night battles required higher and higher personal values.
She had read what others said, that people with high agility values were more flexible when fighting monsters, but she felt that in such a large group of birds, no matter how flexible she was, it would be useless and would not be as practical as physical strength.
"Hua Bie: Well, I was shot a few times and bled quite a bit. I used hemostatic medicine to stop the bleeding immediately, so it wasn't serious. I recovered after using the intermediate healing kit."
No wonder he slept so soundly. It turned out to be because of the hemostatic drugs. After hearing his understated description, she felt that it must not be that simple. Last night must have been very dangerous.
After all, it was such a loud noise and the people in that thread were making so much noise.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: How many people did you lead to the monster pile last night? Did you offend everyone in the Tiandihui?"
After receiving the news that he was safe, Yu Miaomiao started to make a balance car on the workbench. Since it was her second time making it, she had some experience with it. At the same time, she browsed the world news.
The death toll next to the world chat box changed to 14871.
The number of people in the apocalypse is decreasing by thousands every day. In the eyes of many survivors, these are no longer just numbers, but death warrants. Especially after entering the normal mode, there are more and more monsters every day, more and more people are injured, and many people are hanging on to their last breath.
Of course, there are some people who still bully others and want to make money and kill others.
"Hua Bie: Not really. Yang Haotian is probably thanking me right now because I helped him get rid of some people who were planning to rebel."
rebel?
"Hanabie: Do you have any food? I threw everything away last night in order to trick them."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I just made a [Running Salad], would you like to eat it?"
The water and eggs in the pot have all been cooked. She wrapped the grilled meat with lettuce and sprinkled seasoning salt on it. It is a level 4 food that can increase physical strength and should be one of the easiest level 4 foods to make.
"Hanabie: Do you have any water?"
He didn’t even have water? What happened last night that left him penniless?
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I have mineral water and filtered water that I just made. Do you want hot or cold water?"
"Hua Bie: Did you cook it? Then give me some hot water."
After trading the food and water, Yu Miaomiao still couldn't help but ask.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: What happened last night? Did you lead away all the Tiandihui people near me?"
The balance bike is still in operation, and the message reminder is on, waiting for his next message.
But after receiving the food, the other party did not respond.
Yu Miaomiao pretended that he was eating, but continued to work with his hands busy.
“Ding ding.”
"No matter how old you are, you are strong: Good morning, I see you haven't started taking orders yet, are you still taking orders today?"
She didn't accept the order because she hadn't done her job well. Thinking that the other party had kindly given her reminders and information, Yu Miaomiao didn't intend to pretend that she was still asleep and replied patiently.
"Meow Meow is Not Short of Water: Sorry, I'm busy right now and haven't started taking orders yet. What do you need?"
She was also planning to make a new intermediate backpack expander today, open all the treasure cards, and check their locations one by one, so she didn't plan to take on the OEM work for the time being.
If possible, she wanted to dig up all the treasures as soon as possible so that her wisdom value could move to the front. Moreover, the more powerful the weapon, the higher the wisdom value required.
"No matter how old you are, you're still strong: Can I make a reservation? I'd like to order four balance bikes."
It would take 40 minutes to work on one machine, and at least two and a half hours to work on four machines. Yu Miaomiao wanted to refuse.
[Successfully trigger the lucky trait and synthesize 3 balance bikes]
Well, it’s not impossible to accept this reservation, otherwise it would be troublesome for her to sell two units.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: This machine can only be ridden for less than an hour at a time at full durability. Are you sure you want four at a time?"
If only two were needed, that would be perfect, and she wouldn't need to do more, unless... there were four of them.
"No matter how old you are, it's still strong: There are four of us in our group. Can we carry more people on the balance bike?"
Yu Miaomiao wanted to reply immediately, but she was not sure.
But then I thought, could it be a test from the other party? If she is not sure, doesn't it mean that she is alone?
She was just about to test whether the scarecrow could move by carrying it on her back when she received a message from Hua Biexin.
"Hua Bie: This is a long story. Those two guys really had bad intentions, but they probably knew they couldn't beat me, so they found an excuse and roped in a few of the 'strongest no matter how old' people on the list, inviting me to explore. I declined, but they still found me. Then I decided to go all out and contacted Yang Haotian directly, gathering all the members of the small groups that wanted to replace me and bringing them all to the furry monster's home. There weren't that many people with bad intentions, so I was able to handle them. But in the end, I had to abandon everything I had on me to gain their trust. Now I can only recover a little and go back to look for them."
This short paragraph contained a lot of information. Yu Miaomiao stared at it for several minutes until the next sandstorm came and she went into the house to digest it.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: You mean, no matter how old I am, I still want to harm you?"
If that was the case, she would definitely reject that person's order.
