Chapter 49: Desert Survival Day 8 (2) I can add friends, so I...

"Miaomiao is not short of water: Because girls are the most beautiful in the world, Lulu deserves my kindness."

Yu Miaomiao thought, if it was Yue Yina, she would do the same. After all, she was the first person to be pulled out of the abyss by Yue Yina.

"Pangpang: Sister Miaomiao, I... maybe I'm still relatively weak right now, but I will work hard to become someone worthy. Thank you."

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Hey, let's work hard together. By the way, do you want to add me as a friend?"

Yu Miaomiao soon received a friend request: "Player Pangpang requests to add you as a friend."

She had seen this request several times before, and it was always from people she didn't know. When she clicked on the request, there were options of 'Accept' and 'Ignore', so she clicked 'Accept'.

"Pangpang: Sister Miaomiao, I'm so happy that you can add me as your friend. I originally had no will to survive in this apocalypse, but I just didn't want to be disgusted by those rotten people. Now I'm suddenly motivated!"

"Meow Meow is not short of water: I'm also very happy to add you as my friend. Please take care of me in the future!"

Hearing Lulu say this, Yu Miaomiao also became happy.

The number 1/1 is displayed in the friend list. Click it to see Lulu’s nickname - Chubby.

What functions does Friends have?

After thinking about it, a small prompt selection box appears.

【Start chatting\Invite to join the group\Trade\View friends】

The group should be the group chat function that Pipi mentioned before. It is probably the same as the group in the green bubble, where you can view friends.

After clicking it, a map similar to a resource search appeared in Yu Miaomiao's sight.

Most of the map was pitch black, representing areas she had never been to and had not been polished.

The center of the map is where Yu Miaomiao is. The entire polished area is much smaller than the map for resource search.

There is no resource search and upgrade progress bar above the map, but instead a string of characters.

cursor:----,----

Players: 1314, 4499

When Yu Miaomiao puts her finger on the map, the cursor will display a string of numbers.

When she puts her finger on the place nicknamed 'Fatty', the cursor will also show a string of numbers, which should be the coordinates of Lulu's location.

So that's how it is. If this function is used well, it will help friends find each other. If it is used poorly, it will be the dilemma Lulu faced before.

The system provides two maps with different scales for resource search and friends, in order to prevent players who have obtained the resource search function from telling the specific coordinates of the resources to players who have not obtained this function.

Unless the player who obtains the resource search goes to the designated place one by one, records the coordinates, and the other party who is informed has also been to this area, they will know where the resources are.

But this is too troublesome, and who knows if the resources will be refreshed or lost. This system is really tricky.

As soon as she walked out of the house, the heat just started to rise and Yu Miaomiao felt a little overwhelmed.

The sunlight now is obviously not that glaring, but it is very hot when it shines on people. As the night's chill has just dissipated, the ground seems to be covered by a huge steamer, making it a little breathless.

It's really getting hotter.

After drinking some ice water and feeling a little hungry, Yu Miaomiao immediately picked two of the golden oranges.

Just as I was about to break it open and eat it, I thought of the mouthwash I got last night.

Everyone had become sloppy after coming here, and now that she already had this thing, she didn't want to settle for anything less!

After looking at the materials needed to make mouthwash, Yu Miaomiao was reluctant to use mineral water. Considering the water resources that would be used in the future, she planned to make a water purification filter first.

The missing activated carbon happens to be an extra product of the 'Is Xiaozhi here' furnace.

Xiaozhi's smelting orders have always been very full, but he doesn't have time to watch the furnace all the time. Now that the furnace has been upgraded, he wants to exchange for more resources through smelting, so he hopes to use the additional products of smelting - charcoal, lime, and activated carbon - to exchange for wood.

Yu Miaomiao finally exchanged 5 pieces of wood for 10 pieces of charcoal, 10 pieces of lime, and 10 pieces of activated carbon.

After the change, on the new cyber-feeling workbench, select 'Synthesis' after 'Simple Water Purification Filter', and the corresponding production materials will be deducted from the backpack.

Then a small machine appeared on the table - an injection molding machine.

Yu Miaomiao didn't recognize this machine either, but each machine would have its own name and more intelligent operating instructions.

Insert the plastic molding mold next to the workbench into the middle of the machine, throw the plastic block in, turn on the machine, and one minute later, a funnel-shaped plastic bottle will appear in the middle of the machine. Just take it out and let it dry.

Then cut the scrap iron into 18 iron rods, use a welder to weld 15 of them into a triangular base, place the plastic bottle on the base, and the funnel-shaped filter will take shape.

She used pliers to bend one end of the other three into curved iron rods, and finally welded them to the bottom of the base to form an iron clamp handle.

Immediately afterwards, the injection molding machine disappeared and a small sewing machine appeared on the workbench.

It really is a sewing machine. Yu Miaomiao happened to make clothes for cats when she was working in a cat cafe, so she is very familiar with sewing machines.

Sew the linen into a specified shape as shown in the diagram.

[Successfully trigger the lucky trait and synthesize a simple water purification filter*2]

That’s really good. Yu Miaomiao hopes she can continue to be lucky.

After looking at the instructions for the filter, she found that it needed to be used with a filter. She had thought of this when she saw the filter drawing.

The filter is very simple to make. You just need to wrap all the mucus, activated carbon and sand together with linen cloth, and finally use a hammer to tamp the linen bag into a square.

After adding a filter to the backpack, there were no additional system sounds. It seemed that her inner prayers were not fulfilled.

The size of the filter linen bag is just right to fit the bottom of the water purifier funnel. After putting it in, a simple water purifier can be truly put into use.

After fixing an empty bottle under the funnel, pour a bottle of well water on top, which only takes up a quarter of the entire water purifier.

Above the water purifier, through the holographic screen, you can see the remaining filtration time of the current water volume - 2 hours.

It takes so long to filter a bottle, it seems that it will take a while to get complete water freedom.

She decided to go all out and filled the first water purifier with water, then prepared to put the second filter into use.

On the workbench, it took another minute to finish the filter and then pour in a full tank of well water.

After doing all this, she started sweating.

I heard that Pippi and her friends couldn't stand the heat anymore, so they asked someone to build a awning for them. However, it only provided basic sunshade effect but had no cooling effect.

As for my own parasol, although it is not enough to cover two workbenches, it does have a slight cooling effect.

From now on, unless there are special circumstances requiring work on both sides, she plans to operate only on the high-quality workbench.

She looked at the filter and saw that it would take more than 40 minutes. In order to avoid being disturbed by the heat, she planned to make a condensing vertical fan.

Now there were still two stones missing, and she wanted to prepare more shotgun bullets, so Yu Miaomiao thought of Pipi first.

It was as if we were in sync with each other, and I received Pipi’s friend request the next second.

"Is Pipi here? Hey, Sister Meow Meow! I just finished my workout, and you finally got it. Let's see if we're close enough."

If it were before, Yu Miaomiao would definitely feel offended by the other party, but after spending the past few days together, she has gotten to know Pipi better and has developed a basic level of trust in her.

After accepting, Yu Miaomiao also curiously clicked on "View Friends". She was in the upper right corner of the map.

The distance between myself, Lulu and Pippi forms a triangle.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Are you coming from the same place?"

"Is Pipi here? Yes, but she's very far away."

"Is Pipi here?: Oh, right, Ziren and I both unlocked the leaderboard feature, and Ziren is actually number one in stamina! How come I didn't realize he had such good stamina?"

After learning that Lulu was still alive, Pipi's tone became much lighter.

"Meow Meow: I didn't expect your strength and agility to be so high."

"Is Pipi here? I'm going to say it again. I'm starting to wonder if I'm a Barbie doll. I saw some names I know on the list, but they're all guys. I'm the only girl."

"Is Pipi here? Perhaps it's thanks to my mom's constant 'whipping' and Ziren's constant nagging that I've developed such muscular muscles. Ugh, but I didn't expect that the martial arts and archery I was forced to learn would actually be put to use here."

"Meow Meow is not short of water:..."

"Meow Meow is not short of water: I never thought that Api-san was so amazing."

It was hard for Yu Miaomiao to imagine that a girl who laughed all day long actually had so many abilities.

Compared with Pippi, she was simply weak. It seemed that she also had to learn from Pippi and find more time to exercise to improve her physical fitness.

"Is Pipi here? Hehe, I told you I was awesome, but Ziren kept saying it wasn't enough, huh."

"Is Pipi here? By the way, Sister Miaomiao, do you know what the strategy for that adventure zone is?"

"Meow Meow is not short of water: [Dark Oasis Expedition Card], I only know that it's a place similar to a dungeon, with other monsters and treasure chests, but I haven't been there yet."

"Is Pipi here? Wow, Sister Meow Meow, did you also get this adventure card from drawing cards?"

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Yes, I plan to give it a try. If I encounter any danger that I cannot handle, I can come back immediately."

"Is Pipi here? Well, I can't slack off. If I get a card, I'm going to check it out. With the leaderboard, the stronger people will only get stronger. Since I'm not weak, I can't fall behind."

It seems that after what happened with Lulu, both she and Pippi gained some insights and grew.

"Meow Meow: Well, let's work hard together! I want to exchange 2 slime for 5 iron blocks and 2 stone blocks, is that okay?"

Yu Miaomiao just glanced at the auction house. More and more people are listing items now. After searching for the reserve price, she gave a suitable exchange ratio.

"Is Pipi here? That's awesome! It's a friendly price again, hehe. There are more stone blocks spawning nearby now, and I can even mine iron ore. Can I trade 20 stone blocks and 12 iron ingots for 5 slime?"

The output of stones, wood, screws and sand are currently relatively high basic materials, so their value is lower.

Pipi knew that Yu Miaomiao had killed a lot of monsters before, so she felt that she had some extra mucus on her body. She wanted to make an extra medical kit in case of emergency, so she made this exchange request.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Good."

Yu Miaomiao had quite a lot of mucus, and she had always been in short supply of these two materials, so she agreed.

While the two were talking, she sat on the mat and felt much cooler. Thinking of the scene last night, she looked towards the sandbags.
