Chapter 212: Ice and Snow World
[The eighth apocalyptic world mission has been completed, the number of star coins: 2735. ]
[The next mission will be opened at midnight on the 7th of next month. Please come to receive the world data before midnight on May 6th. ]
...
It was almost noon when Youxi woke up. This time, she slept for almost twelve hours. After waking up, she felt refreshed and the whole person was refreshed.
She rolled up the thin and soft summer quilt, rubbed her pillow with her cheek, felt the warm breath of home, and then looked at the heavy snow outside the glass window.
Before going to bed in the early morning, she deliberately opened half of the curtains, so that she could lie in bed and see the snow outside as soon as she woke up and opened her eyes.
The temperature indoors was a comfortable 20 degrees, the most comfortable temperature for human body, neither too hot nor too cold, comfortable and pleasant. Outside the window, there was continuous heavy snow and howling cold wind, the whole sky was gloomy, and thick snow covered the whole city.
She had only had this feeling when she was very young.
In the sultry summer, her parents were working and she was alone at home. It was bright in the daytime when there was suddenly lightning and thunder. She closed all the windows and turned down the air conditioner, then wrapped herself in a thin blanket and knelt on the sofa near the window, watching the strong wind and heavy rain outside while eating some snacks and watching TV in the quiet room, feeling this strange sense of security.
Now, the weather outside is worse than the storms in the past, and it is full of dangers, but the place where she is is a hundred times safer than the house in the past. No matter how dangerous it is outside, no one can invade the room. This is a safe house for her family.
No matter how many dangers she encounters in the mission world, as long as she returns here, she will be surrounded by this full sense of security, completely relax her body and mind, and enjoy a peaceful vacation.
You Xi rolled on the bed: "Xing Min, you are such a treasure, whoever picks you up will say hello."
[……]
You Xi felt the other party's speechless mood, laughed a few times, stretched her waist and got up.
This time, she gained a lot from the apocalypse mission.
"Yinyin" was the first to leave. Before leaving, she told Youxi and Xingmin that this body might get sick because of the discomfort. Everything that happened before might seem like a blurry movie scene to her, but as long as she rested well, both her body and consciousness would be restored to their original state.
The second person to leave was Xingmin. Youxi felt sympathy for Zhou Zhitong when she thought of his future after he left.
In fact, the airship played an important role in their being able to spend the last few months in a comfortable and safe environment, and the reason why she could own such an offensive and defensive airship was because of Zhou's father and son.
Before they integrated into the new world, she had already put this airship into the transportation warehouse, and the low-altitude suspended vehicle that was originally placed there was put into the Xingwu warehouse, which had half of the space vacated.
At this point, the sea, land and air are all here.
Youxi lamented Zhou Zhitong's plight of near death, and planned to use a new function added after the third upgrade of the Star House after Xing Min left: treatment (external injuries).
This function is actually a small space like a cocoon, but this small space can be entered by people - whether it is the original world or the apocalyptic mission world. It's
just that each time you enter this space, you need to spend 200 to 400 star coins, and it can only be used once a month.
Anyone who enters this space will automatically enter a dormant state as long as they have injuries. At the same time, the space will automatically detect and repair their bodies. According to the severity of the injuries, the number of star coins of Youxi will be automatically deducted after the repair is completed, and the person will be automatically released from the silkworm pupa space. In
other words, the starting price for entering once is 200 and the upper limit is 400, but the scope of treatment is limited to external injuries. Of
course, she can also enter, but if she has no injuries, she will not enter a dormant state and will be released immediately. Therefore, this space cannot be used as a shelter for the mission world. Healthy people cannot stay in it for a few seconds, but 200 star coins will still be deducted.
With Youxi's current physical condition, she rarely gets injured, and if she does get injured, it's unlikely to be limited to external injuries. Xing Min can only stay in a dying body without being noticed, so she can't completely heal Zhou Zhitong's body.
But when he leaves, the situation is different. She can send Zhou Zhitong into this treatment space and completely repair his external injuries: comminuted fractures of hands and feet, broken ribs, and a hit head...
As for the rest, they can be slowly treated by the medical system of the new world - the medical technology in the refreshed world is more advanced than the previous world, and what she does is to get him out of the predicament of dying, while reducing the difficulty of treatment and shortening the treatment time.
Of course, given Zhou Zhitong's injury, the star coins needed might be close to 400, so she made the decision after careful consideration and regarded this amount of star coins as the cost of purchasing the airship and crystal fuel.
Xing Min did not comment on this, but after he left, she received a new random task.
The task was to treat Zhou Zhitong, and the task reward was 500 star coins.
Youxi: ...
I can feel the convenience and benefits of having nepotism (?) all the time. The treatment fee is capped at 400 star coins, so did they deliberately give her 100 more star coins here?
[Accept the task.]
She could hear the joy in the other person's voice.
She was also very happy. After all, she originally thought she would lose 400, but now she has earned 100. This happy mood spread all the way to her return to the original world.
Although the Star House Warehouse was half empty when she came back, because she moved a lot of supplies to the apartment when she went to the mission world, she found that the supplies and the silver RV in the simulated apartment could not be stuffed into the Star House Warehouse after she came back.
In the end, she could only upgrade the Star House immediately, hoping that the Star House Warehouse could be expanded again.
This time, she saw the illusion of the universe again. The picture seemed to be connected to the previous illusion, and she came in front of the huge hull.
Huge alone is not enough to describe the huge monster in front of her.
She saw more details, the dark and old hull, the dim and silent portholes. She was shocked, and at the same time, she felt a boundless loneliness...
She saw a series of light golden energy drifting out from her palm and merging into the hull in front of her. Her line of sight seemed to pass through the hull and the layers of bulkheads, and finally landed in an empty cabin.
Unlike other places, this cabin looked much brighter, and the place where the light came from was very strange. It was part of the cabin, but the original cabin space seemed to melt into the air, forming a vague area, as if it had merged with something else.
This area emits a faint light, which is the source of light in this cabin.
The light golden energy that had drifted out from her palm was gradually invested in this area, and the faint light in the area flickered slightly. She didn't know how long it had been, it seemed very short, but also seemed very long.
She suddenly felt that in this huge spaceship, there was another space that was slowly lighting up.
This brightness was not the brightness of the light source, but a kind of awakening, like a machine that had been stagnant for many years started to operate again, slowly and arduously, although compared to the entire spaceship, it was only a very small area...
Suddenly, You Xi seemed to understand what the upgrade of the Star House was all about.
She heard a voice, deep and unfamiliar, but with a familiar and gentle tone: "You will like it..."
Before her consciousness returned to her body, she tried to look back, but she only saw an empty cabin with nothing in it...
[The fourth upgrade of the Star House has been completed, the number of star coins: 1135. ]
[The Star House warehouse has been expanded to 1314 cubic meters with the Star House upgrade. ]
[The Star House has added an automatic planting area, which will be opened in twelve hours. ]
Youxi: !!!
Planting! ?
**
After Fan Qi and You Feng got up in the morning, they found that there was a narrow staircase with a metal handrail next to the handrail on the second floor of the simulated apartment. The staircase was brand new silver. When they touched it, they found that the tactile material was exactly the same as the material of the walls and floors of the Star House.
The top of the staircase went straight to the ceiling, and there was a small square hole in the part where the ceiling and the staircase were connected.
The staircase appeared abruptly, and the top of the square hole was blocked by a metal plate of the same color as the staircase, so in the end, neither of them went up and planned to study it after their daughter woke up.
As a result, You Xi slept until noon, and after waking up, she lay in bed and stared at the snow scene for a long time.
When she opened the door and came out, she found her father standing in front of the newly added stairs in front of the fence, looking up and looking left and right, but he never dared to step onto the stairs.
"Dad, what are you doing?"
"Xixi is awake, come on, come and see what's on the top of this staircase?"
"It's a new area added to the Star House, it's said that it can plant automatically." Youxi looked sideways at the clock on the wall next to her. It was already past noon, and it was time to turn it on.
She was also very curious in her heart. She didn't care that she hadn't brushed her teeth and washed her face yet. She took a few steps up the stairs and reached out to touch the metal plate on the top.
Sensing her touch, the metal plate made a pleasant sound and then moved away automatically.
Youxi curiously poked her head out and immediately exclaimed.
There is actually a sealed terrace with a full glass roof and walls!
The terrace is very large, with an estimated area of about 100 square meters. It is circular in shape and about three or four meters high. The staircase entrance is on one side of the circle. When she leaned her head up, she was immediately attracted by the snow scene outside the glass wall on the right.
Like the simulated apartment below, this newly added space also has the function of viewing the outside when the external structure is an exterior wall and windows.
Because the Star House appeared this time in the kitchen of an abandoned restaurant on the top of a building, and the external walls have collapsed, the entire glass terrace can be viewed from the outside at this moment.
Youxi stepped onto the terrace in slippers. The ground was a light wood color, and in the middle was a circular planting wall from top to bottom.
The planting wall is a double-layer glass ring with grids in both vertical and horizontal directions. Each grid is 40 cm square and about 30 cm thick.
[Fully automatic planting area, a total of ten layers, 19 grids per layer in the outer circle, and 9 grids per layer in the inner circle, a total of 280 planting grids. Just put the seeds of the crops you want to plant into the seed placement area of the planting wall, and the planting wall will automatically complete the rest of the work. Including allocating seeds, temperature and humidity control, light and nutrition. ]
[Crops are not limited to vegetables, all kinds of grains and fruits can also be planted. The planting wall will automatically adjust the plant development method. Some originally large fruits may have a reduction in the amount of harvest, but there will be some harvest more or less. 】
【When the fruit of a crop is fully grown, the green light on the planting grid will light up, indicating that it is ready to be harvested. You only need to click the number of the planting grid you want to harvest on the control screen of the planting wall, and the planting wall will automatically collect the crop and transport it to the extraction box after completing the primary cleaning and processing. 】
【The temperature, light, nutrient solution and humidity required by the planting wall depend on the amount you plant. If the planting is full, 5 star coins will be deducted every month. If it is not full, it will be reduced according to the proportion...
Youxi walked in the middle of the double-layer circular planting wall, her fingers lightly brushed across the glass wall in front of her, looking at the currently empty planting grids, and sighed sincerely: "No wonder this time the upgrade only expanded the Star House warehouse from 888 cubic meters to 1314 cubic meters, and the others did not change. It turns out that the focus is here!"
With this fully automatic planting wall, she no longer needs to stock up on vegetables and fruits when she goes to the mission world in the future. She only needs to buy all the seeds of the crops. This saves a lot of space and time.
At the same time, this terrace is still part of the Star House. It is within the protection range. There is a large area here. In addition to the planting wall in the middle, many things can be placed around it.
For example, beach lounge chairs, vertical water bar coffee machines, astronomical telescopes, and dining tables can be placed directly on it. In the future, when Fan Qi and You Feng feel bored and bored down there, they can come up with cups and lie down.
The view here is so good. When the sun is out, you can sunbathe outside, and when it rains, you can watch the rain.
When it snows like now, you can watch the snow. In this broken city, on the terrace that others can't see, you can be free and at ease.
**
Fan Qi was the happiest among the three people in the You family with the appearance of the planting area on the Star House terrace.
In fact, as early as the beginning of the apocalypse, when her daughter was stockpiling supplies, Fan Qi had the idea of setting up a few rows of planting boxes in the simulated apartment, so that she could have an extra supply of fresh vegetables when she was free.
But later, due to the relocation and the conflicts with the people in Xu Yan's team, this matter was never done in time.
You Xi could certainly help her get the necessary planting boxes when she went to the mission world, but her daughter risked her life to do the mission, so how could she add trouble to her for such a small matter.
What's more, she had never taken care of these before, and she didn't know if she could keep them alive.
Now it's different. This planting wall is fully automatic. As long as you choose to put the seeds in, you can wait quietly for the harvest. All she needs to do is to choose the right seeds according to the variety she wants to eat.
As for seeds, there are plenty of them in Youxi.
So, after lunch that day, Fan Qi threw the bowl to You Feng to clean up, and dragged her daughter to the glass terrace.
You Xi took out bags of different seeds, ranging from grains to vegetables to fruits. The bags were labeled. She handed the task of selecting seeds to Fan Qi, and began to arrange the leisure area around the planting wall.
Beach lounge chairs, soft lazy sofas, storage racks...
When You Xi finished here, Fan Qi also finished selecting seeds, and You Xi put away the bags of seeds that she had resealed.
Then Fan Qi put in the seeds and pressed the automatic planting button. The four-meter-high planting wall in front of them began to work automatically. The planting grids lit up one by one, and nutrient solution was added, seeds were sown, and water was sprinkled...
When 280 planting grids worked together, the scene was extremely spectacular.
"My dear, what do you want to eat tonight? Shall we have dinner on the terrace?"
You Xi subconsciously wanted to say hot pot, but then she thought about how You Feng and Fan Qi had just eaten hot pot yesterday, and she also remembered that she still had a lot of M12 wagyu beef she had stockpiled in the world of the Seventh Hell, so she said that she wanted to have a full beef banquet tonight.
Oxtail bone and radish soup, roasted marbled pork, and a lobster, sliced the body for sashimi, cooked the head and tail into porridge, paired with fruit cucumber, carrots, and some wine.
The mother and daughter discussed and went back to the kitchen downstairs. You Xi took out the ingredients one by one, but she heard crying coming from outside.
The crying sound came from the direction of the stairwell, and it sounded like a young girl's voice. It was not a slight sob, but a loud cry like crying a bereavement, as if carrying a huge grievance.
In the crying sound, there was another girl's voice, trying to persuade. I don't know if it was because it was too cold outside, or for some other reason, the girl's voice was intermittent, and she seemed to be shaking all the time.
"Mom, I'll go out and take a look."
