"This means we are no longer on Earth and are far from the Milky Way. We just don't know where our galaxy is located?"
"Help! Does anyone have any heatstroke remedies? Why is it that in the dead of winter there's Master Jiang An's cold-dispelling soup, but in the sweltering heat there's no one to buy heatstroke relief items?"
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I think I have a fever!"
"Brother, cool down quickly! Wipe your body with ice or a damp towel, and drink some lightly salted water!"
"Waaaaah, it's hopeless, I...I...I think I have heatstroke, and I'm in the desert, I didn't make it back to the safe house!"
Good luck to you!
"Dear players, you must return to the safe house when night falls and animals become active. That is the only safe place for us. There are too many unpredictable factors in the desert at night."
"That sounds nice, but instead of exploring and gathering supplies at night, are you trying to kill us with the heat?!"
"Yes, it's too hot during the day. We can't go out at all. If we leave the air conditioning, we'll definitely get heatstroke!"
"The resources in this desert are pitifully scarce! At this rate, I'm afraid I won't even be able to afford to turn on the air conditioner!"
... ...
Many players, like her, were in this vast, scorching desert, complaining bitterly about their predicament.
These players all showed symptoms of heatstroke, experiencing dizziness and a throbbing headache, making it impossible for them to step out of the safe house to search for the necessary supplies to survive.
Left with no other choice, they could only huddle together in their small safe houses, watching helplessly as their once ample supplies dwindled.
Just then, a shout rang out: "Attention, fellow players! While I was out gathering supplies today, I stumbled upon an oasis! And there's a huge, crystal-clear pool of water inside!"
I've tried it myself, and as long as you filter the water a little, it's safe to drink! Everyone is welcome to buy it!
Upon hearing this news, the crowd immediately erupted in excitement.
"Wow, someone's already found an oasis? That's incredibly lucky!"
"Pshaw, that's nothing lucky! I actually found iron ore right here in the desert!"
Jiang An, who had been silently watching the chat channel, was stunned when he saw this message.
She never imagined that a player would actually be so lucky as to discover such a precious resource as iron concentrate.
Subconsciously, Jiang An turned his head to look at the scattered minerals in his backpack, and a feeling of envy welled up in his heart.
She frowned slightly, pondering to herself: Judging from the achievements we've made so far, I wonder how many more long years it will take to advance to the next level!
This vast desert is extremely barren, with all kinds of resources being extremely scarce.
Especially those treasure chests that can only be obtained by hunting animals are extremely rare, which undoubtedly causes great trouble for players in collecting the resources they need.
If a mineral vein were discovered, the situation would change dramatically.
"They're all incredibly lucky! How come everyone here is so lucky!"
"May I share in this good fortune and hope I discover an oasis and a mineral vein tomorrow too!"
"I'm so envious, jealous, and hateful!!!"
Why am I not the luckiest person in the world?!
... ...
Upon seeing this, Jiang An slowly stopped what he was doing and gently turned off the light screen in front of him.
At that moment, she seemed to wake up from a dream and suddenly realized that she had not done nearly enough.
I often turn on the screen frequently and then unconsciously immerse myself in that lively regional channel, thus wasting a lot of precious time and energy.
Thinking about this, she couldn't help but shake her head slightly, reflecting deeply and briefly on her previous behavior.
Immediately afterward, a flash of light appeared before her eyes, and she swiftly retrieved all the treasure chests she had acquired during this adventure from the backpack on her back.
After carefully counting them, considering how many animals she had hunted, the number of treasure chests that dropped was indeed not many.
However, the number of treasure chests obtained this time is unprecedented compared to previous harvests in the desert.
That's where we reaped the most rewards.
There are a total of 7 iron boxes and 1 copper box.
Following her long-standing habit, she decided to open the highest-level treasure chest first...
[Ding! You have harvested 2 Iron Essence, 1 Watermelon (Excellent), and 3 Ice Cubes (Inedible)]
As the system notification sounded, Jiang An muttered to himself, "I actually got something new!"
He reached out and took the ice cubes out of the box.
These ice blocks are square in shape and quite large in size.
After some estimation, Jiang An guessed that each ice block weighed about 20 kilograms.
Such a large and well-formed block of ice is undoubtedly an excellent material for cooling.
However, for Jiang An at this moment, these three ice cubes seemed somewhat useless.
While they can provide a cooling effect, they are quite inconvenient to carry and are not exactly a necessity in the current environment.
After glancing at it twice, Jiang An put it into his storage ring.
From then on, the space that had been painstakingly cleared out was filled up again.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang An put the two pieces of iron essence into his backpack.
Compared to ice, iron essence is a truly important resource, useful for upgrading safe houses and crafting weapons.
Finally, when Jiang An saw the excellent-grade watermelon, a joyful smile appeared on his face.
In such hot weather, being able to enjoy a sweet and juicy bite of watermelon is an incredibly pleasant and enjoyable experience.
What's more, this watermelon is an excellent grade.
