Chapter 33 Hurricane Season 33 Repair the shield and prepare for disasters. …

...again?

When the last hurricane hit, the residents of Dawn Town mentioned that this year's natural disaster came early, and there was only one hurricane during the entire hurricane season last year.

There's nothing surprising about this.

If Jiang Runian were this artificial intelligence, natural disasters would become more serious every year, and there would be a sense of crisis at the end of the world.

But random events are always annoying, so you must always be prepared to evacuate.

For example, now, she is still at Jin Xiu Lian's house and can't go back to Qingshan Inn at all.

Jin Xiu Lian opened the window and listened to the rumbling of the huge object outside the protective shield. Her anxious face suddenly showed a sense of vicissitudes.

Shuguang Town worked hard to upgrade the shield to level 5, but every time it encounters a random natural disaster, its durability is still worn out. Although the materials used for repair are basic, the amount used is huge. It's okay once or twice, but I don't know how long this hurricane will last. They can't withstand a long-term blow...

"Mayor Jin?"

"Oh, sorry," Jin Xiulian looked uneasy, "Did Boss Jiang say anything just now?"

Jiang Ruonian thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I might have to wait for the hurricane to pass at your house today."

She originally wanted to ask Jin Xiulian what was different about this hurricane and the previous ones, but looking at her anxious face, she could roughly guess the answer.

With the hurricane approaching, it was impossible for Jin Xiu Lian to refuse her.

"Boss Jiang, just sit inside for a while. I'll go to a few stores to check out the situation."

"Can I come with you?"

There seemed to be nothing to be shy about. Faced with such a great crisis, Jin Xiu Lian had no time to think about anything else and quickly agreed.

The streets of Shuguang Town were almost empty, with only one or two panicked figures packing up their roadside stalls and running home.

Jin Xiu Lian had already memorized the door-to-door information map in her mind, and she knocked on the doors of several elderly people, asking if their children were at home.

Every sudden and random natural disaster always takes away many defenseless lives.

After these elderly people enter the game, their attributes are naturally low, and coupled with their weak bodies, they have no chance to upgrade their supernatural powers. In most cases, it is still the young people in the family who go out to earn money to support the family.

If their children don't come home now, then... they may never come back.

Jin Xiu Lian's right hand felt heavier as she knocked on the door.

After only asking six households, half of the young people had already lost contact.

Soon, they arrived at Wang Po's house.

"Mayor Jin... have you seen my Wang Qi?" Grandma Wang looked haggard, her legs as thin as dry wood trembling. She used all her strength to hold Jin Xiulian's hand. "Last time, Qiqi brought back several thousand yuan. He left the town early every morning. I don't know what he was busy with... Now the strong wind is coming. What will he do outside alone? He is my only grandson!"

Several thousand...

That should be the money that Jiang Runian asked him to return to his family.

It seems that Wang Qi was too embarrassed to continue staying in Shuguang Town, so he got up early and went out to find a job.

This time, I don’t know if he can survive.

After visiting all the families of elderly people living alone, Jin Xiu Lian allocated enough living funds to each family whose young people had gone missing, and left with regret.

Jiang Runian patted her shoulder and said soothingly, "Maybe there is still hope."

Jin Xiulian shook her head and said in a low voice: "No one can resist a random natural disaster. It's just the difference between being able to find the remains or not."

After saying that, Jin Xiu Lian hurried to the city hall and instructed the department responsible for the protective shield to keep an eye on its durability at all times and replenish it in time.

Jiang Runian followed without saying a word.

He is indeed a good mayor who is conscientious and responsible.

After a long and tiring journey, Jin Xiulian returned home and clicked on the floating screen while choosing and asking, "Boss Jiang, what do you want to eat? The most delicious thing in the mall is sandwiches, but I'm afraid you won't be used to it."

"..." Jiang Ruinian hesitated, "Do we have to eat from the mall?"

Jin Xiu Lian was so anxious that she slapped her thigh. Only then did she realize that the person in front of her was the super chef of Qingshan Inn. How could he be interested in the tasteless food in the mall!

Jin Xiu Lian pushed open a door, revealing a dusty kitchen. On the stove stood a wooden board, piled with information about Shuguang Town.

Jiang Ruonian helped her carry the wooden board and helped her out. He shook the vegetables, fruits and meat dishes in his bag and said, "Let me do it. You sit down."

Jin Xiu Lian sat at the dining table, feeling uneasy.

The last time they met, she had been testing Jiang Ruinian in both overt and covert ways, but today Jiang Ruinian didn't mind at all. Not only did he exchange information with her, he even cooked for her himself...

Alas! How dare she look down on this young boss before!

He simply stir-fried a dish of hot garlic-fried seasonal vegetables, cooked a pot of baby cabbage in soup, and put out a plate of delicious fruitwood roasted chicken, and Jiang Ruonian handed over two sets of bowls and chopsticks.

Due to the busy town affairs, Jin Xiu Lian has not had the opportunity to spend time at Qingshan Inn so far. This is her first time to taste the famous Qingshan cuisine.

Although the dishes cooked outside the Qingshan Inn have no attribute bonus, they are still fragrant. The fresh green vegetables are wrapped in the aroma of the pot, and the soup pot exudes fresh, fragrant and slightly salty heat. The sizzling roasted chicken is even more coated with a layer of crispy skin like a sugar shell, which is so fragrant that it kills people.

Under the temptation of this table, Jin Xiu Lian couldn't even say a few polite words and couldn't help but eat the food.

When she was adding the second bowl of rice, she pursed her lips and said shyly, "Boss Jiang, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you... I have always lived alone. I was busy as a high school dean, so I usually ate takeout. Now that I am the mayor, I eat at the mall every day. I haven't eaten fresh food for a long time."

"Isn't your family here?"

"My parents live in the countryside, and I don't know where they are in District 8. I was too busy in high school, and I didn't want to get married and have kids, so I spent half my life alone."

As she spoke, Jin Xiulian looked up at her and said, "I see you're not very familiar with this area. You're not a local, are you? Did you happen to come here for a trip before the game came?"

If you must say so...it's about the same.

"This was originally a remote and impoverished area of ​​Blue Star. Talented people were recruited to work under the First Command. The rest were either against the intelligent machines or unemployed because of artificial intelligence. Therefore, the families in this area are not complete."

No wonder...the Senmin tribe is mostly made up of lone women, old people and children, and Nini's father is not here either.

Therefore, the development of the southwestern region is lagging behind, not only because of resource differences, but also because of cultural differences.

Jin Xiu Lian and Meng Li are willing to shoulder the most important responsibilities in such a group and are both strong women.

The two were talking deeply when suddenly, there was a sound of shattering from the protective shield above their heads!

"What's going on?!" Jin Xiu Lian ran out quickly.

In "Infinite Tomorrow", the range of the protective shield is the range of the shelter, and it is also the only safe place. No matter how serious the natural disaster is, as long as the level of the protective shield increases with the level of the natural disaster, your life will be safe.

Therefore, even though Jin Xiulian thought that this year's hurricane came in a strange way, she only urged people to repair it in time.

But something had hit it just now, and it actually created a crack in the protective shield? !

This situation is unprecedented!

There was no time to clean up the food as they both rushed to the door of the City Hall and looked up.

The crack was not big, but it was big enough for small flat objects to pass through. This time the hurricane blew without any rhyme or direction, and a few broken trees and rocks came in from time to time.

"Be careful!" A head fell down, Jiang Runian grabbed Jin Xiu Lian, and the two of them fell down in the door, barely avoiding it.

Fortunately, Jin Xiulian had set a rule when she became the mayor that "no one is allowed to go out when a natural disaster strikes." These attacks only damaged some houses and did not hurt the players.

Jin Xiulian yelled, "Can't it be fixed?!"

The people inside were sweating profusely, "Mayor, we have been stuffing materials in, but once the hole is opened, 50% is gone, and it keeps dropping... It's like trying to fix the problem after the sheep have been stolen!"

Jiang Ruinian took a look at the repair materials: wood, stone, hay...

She took out a set of wood from her bag: "Try mine." The wood used in Qingshan Inn was all cut by Bai Yexuan using the Sky Sword. It is of the same intermediate quality and might be more efficient.

Sure enough, the repairman half-believingly stuffed the materials into her body and actually replenished the durability to full!

The rift was stitched up, and the durability loss no longer continued. Dawn Town temporarily survived this terrible crisis.

"Boss Jiang! What kind of magical material is this?!"

Well...there's nothing wrong with calling the material that Bai Yexuan chopped out divine material.

Jiang Runian said tactfully: "It is the ability of my employees. There are still many such intermediate materials in the inn, I can sell some of them."

"No problem! When the hurricane is over, go back and take inventory. Use Hibiscus to tell me the quantity and price, and I will trade it to you directly."

After staying in Dawn Town for most of the day, the hurricane finally subsided.

Last time, the hurricane only lasted about two hours, far less than this time.

Jiang Runian had no time to analyze and think. When she ran to the gate of Shuguang Town, Xiaolu was already waiting for her anxiously with a car full of people. After sending her to Shuguang Town in the morning, she was stopped by Hurricane before the next bus arrived. Even Xiaolu was worried that something bad had happened to her.

The guests from Shuguang Town got off the bus, and Jiang Runian hurried back to the inn.

No one from Qingshan Sect was able to say a word to show her any concern, so Jiang Runian called everyone together to count the intermediate materials, list the quantities and prices, and send them to Jin Xiu Lian and Meng Li - the protective shield of Shuguang Town couldn't hold up, and the Senmin Tribe must have suffered a big blow as well.

Li Fu was puzzled: "Is their shield different from ours? Why don't we need to repair it?"

After all, it was the Qingshan Sect that was chosen by the system.

The system said on the first day that it had selected the best protective shield.

Thanks to the strict selection of the system, otherwise these materials would not be enough for Qingshan Inn to repair itself.

Jiang Ruonian asked Chu Yu: "Elder Yu, can you make something to reinforce the protective shield?"

"I was just about to tell you about this," Chu Yu propped up his chin, "There are so many strange and bizarre things in this world that I have never seen before. Is there anything similar to the books in the Treasure Pavilion that I can refer to?"

What Chu Yu read in the treasure house were all Qimen Dunjia and Tiangong's creations. Each page had a mechanism, and the operating principle was written in small characters. Every time Chu Yu conquered a mechanism, he would fold the page and draw a circle with a cinnabar pen.

And in the game, it is similar to it...

Wait a minute, isn't this talking about the illustrated guide? !
