Starting Off With Just A Tiny Bit Of Luck

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 74 Desert Survival Day 10 (2) This is not an ordinary model...

While Yu Miaomiao was feeling the cold wind, she received a new message from Api in the group chat.

"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, has the sandstorm stopped over there? Are you free to make a condensing fan now?"

"Meow meow, I'm not short of water: It seems like it hasn't completely stopped yet. It's really too hot in the house. I'm afraid I'll faint from the heat if I make something inside. What's wrong? Do you need it urgently?"

After recovering from the shock, Yu Miaomiao took out the newly made wind and sand predictor from his backpack.

It is a small handheld machine with an air inlet above the handle and a weather vane consisting of two feathers at the top.

Through the holographic screen, you can see a set of holographic subtitles above the machine, which currently shows "undetectable status".

The introduction says that it needs to be used outdoors.

Although the wind outside the house did not stop, the wind speed seemed to slow down. The dusty sky gradually returned to its original blue color. Looking through the window, only the sand on the ground was left moving with the wind.

The sandbags and planter boxes were intact, but the drilling kit she was worried about had indeed collapsed and fallen to the side.

I don’t know if the well water can still be taken or used.

Even such a large machine could topple over, which shows how strong the sandstorm must be. This isn't normal mode, it's hard mode. Could there really be an even more hellish mode in the future?

Yu Miaomiao tied the end of the fixed rope to the support column near the wooden door. After pulling it repeatedly to confirm that it was firm, she put one end of the half-body safety belt over her feet, fastened the safety buckle around her waist, and prepared to go out to see the situation.

"Is Pipi here? Ziren overexerted himself indoors and passed out from the heat. He just woke up, but he seems unwell. I'd like to make him a condensing fan. Is that convenient for you right now?"

"Meow Meow is not short of water: The wind has just died down a bit here. I'll go out and try. Wait a moment. By the way, do you have any water? If not, I have some iced mineral water provided by the system."

Yu Miaomiao thought that Ziren was really perseverant. He could continue exercising even in such a hot room. While being strict with himself, he would also supervise Api at all times.

"Is Pipi here? Yes, yes. Thank you, Sister Miaomiao. I'll wait for your news."

"Meow Meow is not short of water: You can trade the materials to me first, and I will help you if the conditions allow."

"Is Pipi here? Okay, what kind of ore do you want for the processing fee?"

"Meow Meow is not short of water: When Ziren gets better, I'll ask him to make me another waist lamp."

After receiving the materials, Yu Miaomiao opened the door.

Perhaps the air pressure in the house was too low, and the sand that was originally rolling in the air suddenly rushed back into the house. The sand blowing in her face instantly blinded her and hit her face.

The sand carried by the wind blew across her exposed skin, and she felt like she was being scratched by the sand. Fortunately, the wind was not strong, and Yu Miaomiao just felt a little uncomfortable, but not to the point of being unable to walk. She should be safe for the time being.

With her vision blurred, she took out the filtered water from her backpack and washed her face. She gulped twice, feeling that there was sand in her throat.

Holding the sandstorm predictor in his hand, he looked at the words on it.

"Within 5 kilometers, the next sandstorm will arrive in 1 hour, 23 minutes and 36 seconds and is expected to last 15 minutes."

The time changes every second, and it seems to be an accurate prediction instrument. With this good thing, she can arrange craft production and outdoor activities according to the predicted time.

She has no plans to go to the expedition site again so soon. Today, she will mainly take more orders, preferably those that require slime as the remuneration, and make all the system synthesis items in this stage.

When she woke up in the morning, Yu Miaomiao felt that the foundation of the wooden house was very unstable, and the whole house felt like it could be overturned at any time. The brick foundation was more solid.

Looking at the surroundings covered with a layer of golden sand, she felt that she had truly arrived in the so-called desert survival world.

There wasn't much gravel or boulders left on the ground, and it was covered with a thin layer of sand. It was very soft to walk on, but there was sand in her sneakers, which made her feet rub when she walked.

After setting up a high-quality workbench and outdoor parasol, she shook the sand out of her shoes and started making a condensing fan.

Standing outside, Yu Miaomiao could clearly feel that the temperature was several degrees lower than indoors, but she didn't feel suffocated or unable to breathe.

Although the wooden house is made of wood, just like a single bed, it is made of wood and screws, but it comes with a Simmons mattress and a four-piece suit, so the house should have thermal insulation materials.

Twenty minutes later.

[Successfully trigger the lucky trait, synthesize condensing fans*2]

"Meow Meow is not short of water: The product is ready, let's trade it. Oh, and this sandstorm predictor seems to be very useful. It can accurately predict sandstorms. Do you have feathers? I suggest you make one."

Before the other party responded, she checked the condition of the well and then harvested the lettuce that had matured last night.

Walking to the well with an umbrella, she saw that the upper half of the well had fallen to the ground and was buried in a pile of sand.

Without the manhole cover, half of the remaining water was buried in sand, and not a drop could be fished out.

Yu Miaomiao reluctantly opened the resource search function. The function upgrade progress was only about 10%. If she could only search once a day, she would have to search for suitable water resources and collect enough water resources at one time. Otherwise, the next time a sandstorm comes, the newly mined wells will probably be covered by sand again.

There was still more than an hour before the next sandstorm, so she probably wouldn't have enough time to dig a well and get more water. While waiting inside the house, she had to find someone to exchange water containers.

Walking to the planting box, the lush plants inside form a sharp contrast with the golden world around it.

A plump, green lettuce is among them, "Lettuce to be harvested (0/1)"

Except for this mature one, the rest of the planting boxes need to be watered. After pouring all the well water collected in the backpack, the plants inside began to grow again.

After the rankings were settled last night, she had an extra pigweed seed.

【Name: Pigweed Seeds (1/1)

Level: Level 10 (Special)

Introduction: Pig is very greedy and loves to eat monsters.

Attributes: Can devour 10 monsters and turn them into fertilizer after a few hours.

This sounded like a good plant. It could help her fight and provide fertilizer. Unfortunately, she had no extra well water now. After this wave of sandstorms passed, she would plant all five seeds in her hand.

As soon as Yu Miaomiao reached out to pull out the lettuce, the entire leaf automatically entered the backpack and was displayed as lettuce*3. It seems that even without triggering luck, he was able to collect 3 pieces.

Above the planting box where lettuce was planted, it immediately displayed "Waiting for Fertilization (0/1)". She had a bag of intermediate fertilizer in her hand, but she didn't plan to use it here. Instead, she took out the composter.

The composter is about half a person's height. Through the holographic image, you can see the words "Input meat (0/20), output fertilizer (0/0)" on it.

So the meat cut off from the monsters that the survivors usually encounter at night can also have this function.

Exchange meat for fertilizer.

She tried to throw in two pieces of wolf meat, and saw that the number "0" behind the pieces of meat turned into "2". At the same time, the composter made a rumbling sound, which should be working.

Above these numbers, you can see a progress bar showing a countdown of 2 hours and a button to cancel the job.

I don’t know what quality of fertilizer this will produce. At worst, it will be low-grade fertilizer. Yu Miaomiao will wait for the composter to produce fertilizer before fertilizing the lettuce.

To prevent the composter from being blown away by wind and sand, she put the composter into her backpack and put it inside the house.

After the composter entered the house, the rumbling sound stopped and the countdown was paused.

Can it only be placed outside the house?

Yu Miaomiao tried again to put it at the door of the wooden house, and the machine started working again.

It seems that I can only wait for the sandstorm to come and quickly put it into my backpack.

"Is Pipi here? Okay, thank you so much, Sister Miaomiao. Do you want any other OEM work, or do you want ore?"

Now, the materials required to make a single system synthesis item are much more than before. For example, making a crusher requires 12 scrap iron blocks, 12 iron blocks, 30 stones, and 12 screws. In addition, the stone powder required for floor tiles is also not small. After thinking about it, she decided to ask for 20 pieces of stone.

After simply rinsing her mouth, Yu Miaomiao finished the last steamed bun and a steamed bun. If she couldn't find any more food today, she would consider lighting a fire to make level 4 food during the day.

"Pangpang: Good morning, Sister Miaomiao. Could you please make a sandstorm forecaster for me? The sandstorm just passed here, and I'm not sure how long I can stay outside. Can you give me a bandage for the cost?"

Emm, Yu Miaomiao felt that she was about to be defeated by Lulu's infinite sincerity. For just a small thing she made, Lulu would give her a bandage, as if she would give her good things whenever she found an opportunity.

"Meow Meow: No, I want you to make me a snake and insect repellent potion. It's very useful in the exploration area."

"Chubby: Okay, is one bottle enough?"

"Meow Meow is not short of water: It may not be enough. Can you make 4 bottles for me? Is the processing fee half a bottle of mineral water or two bottles of filtered water okay?"

The price of mineral water outside is still very high because it is iced and can relieve the heat. If it is filtered water, Lulu still needs to ask Xiaozhi to boil water.

"Pangpang: Okay, I just finished my water this morning and I want some iced mineral water. Sister Miaomiao, you can just trade me a bottle."

Mineral water is required to make snake and insect repellent.

Before making it, she left a message for Hua Bie.

"Meow Meow: Good morning. I can give you a telescope. I'll trade you the other supplies when you have time."

While making the wind and sand predictor, she received a reply from Hua Bie.

"Hua Bie: Good morning, I'm ready to trade. Are your injuries healed? If not, I'll give you a mid-level medical kit."

?

This was too good to be true. She had experienced the effectiveness of the intermediate medical kit. It could not only automatically diagnose and treat, but also treat multiple wounds. However... no reward without merit, she asked tentatively.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Among those supplies, is there anything you particularly want?"

If it was a grenade or something, she would hesitate.

"Hanabetsu: Yes."

If it's a rhododendron crest or insecticide, forget it.

"Hua Bie: The information you provided last night gave me a lot of inspiration. It turns out I've been missing so many treasure chests. Now the wind and sand are so strong that I can't even leave the house. If the remaining cards weren't all from other exploration areas, I'd want to try again right now."

Then what?

Yu Miaomiao didn't understand what he meant. He shouldn't have known that she still had a Dark Oasis expedition card. Her 5% expedition this time didn't yield the next expedition card in the treasure chest. If she couldn't get a new Dark Oasis card in the near future, this would be her last chance to go in.

"Hanabie: So, if you have time, could you please make me a silencer and some more arrow sets? I'm getting too hot in this room, and I don't know when I can get out."

Did he need to be so tactful about asking her to do the work for him? Or was he not in a hurry again?

"Meow Meow: When are you planning to go? Don't tell me it's now?"
