Disaster Warning
Ye Miaomiao won first-class merit in catching reptiles, so naturally he received a generous reward.
She has three options. The first is to obtain a variety of supplies, ranging from stones, wood, ores to tools. The second is to convert the former into points and distribute them to her.
The third option is to rely on luck, and she will get three chances to draw cards.
Ye, the European Emperor of the Territory and the most lucky person, Miaomiao, immediately chose the third option.
You can earn material points and other things, but the chance to draw cards is not so easy to come by!
After happily confirming that the card pool included SSR, she opened the light screen to confirm her luck value, rubbed her hands and pressed it.
Three golden cards spun in circles in front of Ye Miaomiao. While Customer Service 001 looked at her in amazement, "How come you are so lucky!", Ye Miaomiao flipped through them one by one.
The first one is a familiar background picture——
[New Year's Goods Shopping 7: In the interstellar era, the New Year civilization has declined. In order to commemorate the ancient festival, a special New Year's goods shopping event is launched.
After activating this card, you will automatically be registered for the Play-In Round. A firework will appear anywhere in your territory. Find the firework within the three-minute limit to receive a Play-In Round gift pack.
Ye Miaomiao: “!” Please bind your New Year shopping with her...a gift package from the StarCraft competition!
When Ye Miaomiao thought about the interstellar gift package that was so expensive that it almost suffocated her last time, she couldn't even imagine what this time would contain! She was so excited that she almost activated it immediately.
However, it was already getting late, and the territory was busy preparing for winter. Ye Miaomiao planned to finish the work in the next few days before starting preparations.
Looking at the second and third cards, they are all SSRs from [Travel Scenery].
[Star Hotel: You will receive a zero-star hotel, which is upgraded solely based on positive reviews. (Please note that this hotel has its own manager.)]
[Star-rated hotel: You will be assigned a zero-star hotel, which is upgraded solely based on positive reviews. (Please note that this hotel has its own manager.)]
Ye Miaomiao had never seen these two types of cards, even on the forum - this was a brand new model, and she hadn't even heard of [Travel Scenery].
While I was thinking, two people wearing similar clothes but looking completely different came over from a distance.
One person was beaming with a smile, while the other had a serious expression, even a gloomy look.
The former walked faster and approached Ye Miaomiao: "Congratulations! I found a very promising 'kitchen' in your territory! The kitchen has received very high praise. By integrating a star-rated hotel with the kitchen, it will surely be upgraded to a star soon!"
Ye Miaomiao was actually more curious about what rewards she would get after upgrading her star, so she asked about that.
"Upgrading your star rating will earn you recipe rewards, unique buildings, and even industrialized kitchens and professional food exploration teams. Expert food critics will visit your territory and offer you their most sincere praise."
Ye Miaomiao was shocked: "All these great things you mentioned don't require points, just good reviews?"
The hotel manager smiled and nodded.
Ye Miaomiao: “!” She understood! Free, all for free!
"Build it!" Out of trust in SSR, Ye Miaomiao agreed to the hotel manager's application without hesitation.
Then he felt the ground shake slightly. Before he could check the new hotel, he turned around and looked expectantly at the latter - the expressionless hotel manager.
"The environment is dirty, transportation is underdeveloped, the scenery is unsightly, and there are almost no tourists." He said word by word under Ye Miaomiao's sparkling eyes: "I suggest that we renovate the hotel after the conditions improve."
After he finished speaking, before Ye Miaomiao could answer, golden light emanated from his body, enveloping him, and in the blink of an eye he turned back into a card.
The card fell into Ye Miaomiao's hands reluctantly and awkwardly.
Ye Miaomiao: “…” Touched his nose.
The scenery of the territory... She recalled that although it wasn't a 3A scenic spot, it wasn't pleasing to the eye, but it was clean and tidy, not as the hotel manager said...
Ye Miaomiao automatically ignored the messy residents' market and the various small sheds built along the wall. For her, a pragmatist, that was purely the "breath of life."
However, Ye Miaomiao didn't worry about the hotel. The current situation in the territory was exactly as the manager had said. Without a single tourist, the hotel would be useless.
Besides... if you can eat in a restaurant, what's the point of a hotel? And it would waste her three-piece bedding. After thinking about it, it turned out to be... useless.
Ye Miaomiao immediately threw the card into the warehouse and forgot about it.
I walked briskly towards the hotel. It was already very late, and most people had gone back to their rooms. The slight earthquake caused a commotion, but it soon turned into calm.
The kitchen, which originally only had a back kitchen and a food ordering window, now has a room with five or six tables on the side. Like the kitchen, the room is made of stone, with a window and a fireplace on the side, making the whole room very warm.
Several folding wooden tables and overlapping chairs were placed on one side of the room. When there were many people, they could be taken out at any time and placed on both sides of the hotel entrance.
The original window for buying food has not changed, but there is an NPC with a smile on his face.
Ye Miaomiao was pleasantly surprised to see that the zero-star hotel actually gave away four NPCs: a chef, two waiters, and a logistics staff.
One waiter greets customers at the food window, and another serves dishes in the dining hall; the chef's cooking skills will improve with the level of the restaurant; and the logistics department is responsible for washing dishes and cleaning.
Everything you need.
Ye Miaomiao: “!” From now on, I don’t have to buy or eat in the cold wind anymore!
She carefully checked the rules for upgrading the star level and found that the authority to give positive reviews for zero-star restaurants was extremely low. For every 10 points spent on food, one review could be given.
But upgrading the star rating only requires five-star reviews, and a huge number of reviews are required, a full ten thousand.
Ye Miaomiao: “…” Let’s talk about it later.
She threw the rules for good reviews into the ordering panel. In order to gain more good reviews, Ye Miaomiao specifically wrote down the benefits of upgrading the stars.
Ye Miaomiao thought heavily, hoping that the residents would be self-aware.
After doing all this, Ye Miaomiao's excitement gradually subsided and she felt a little sleepy.
She remembered what Customer Service 001 had said about a "small favor" and rubbed her forehead. How could this be considered a small favor!
While the first district of this City Island competition was relatively calm, many other districts were already engaged in fierce competition! Customer service used big data to identify areas likely to harbor crawlers, based on their observed crawler behavior.
After observing for a long time without any results, she thought of Ye Miaomiao's unique ability to encounter reptiles. She wanted to transfer these territories to the first area and let Ye Miaomiao help keep an eye on them.
This is really the most unreliable attempt I could think of after being at my wit's end.
Ye Miaomiao didn't want to agree at first, but the customer service promised her a lot of benefits...
She really gave too much, Ye Miaomiao was shamelessly moved and agreed.
However, Ye Miaomiao rationally estimated his own strength and asked the customer service to only transfer one or two territories at a time, which could be considered as self-protection.
The customer service didn't have much hope in the first place, so they agreed directly and planned to transfer it on the 31st day.
Thinking of this, Ye Miaomiao rolled over in the warm quilt, happily looking forward to the arrival of the thirty-first day.
She had a premonition that the reptiles were inexplicably targeting her—
From Lord Yu's "broken contract" to Saint Mark and Long Guohai's "broken Party A contract," she had a feeling that the more "contracts" she collected, the more reptiles would target her.
Instead of passively resisting, it is better to take the initiative and get help and rewards from customer service.
001 thought Ye Miaomiao was feeling very aggrieved, but in fact, she was extremely happy hiding in her bed.
The night was silent in the fine snow, and with the arrival of the second day, the snowflakes became bigger and the temperature dropped significantly.
On the 26th day, the most eye-catching thing was a system message received by every territory.
[Disaster Warning: You can spend 10 points to purchase information about the next disaster. Please note that this warning is provided by an anonymous player and the system does not assume any responsibility.]
A piece of news caused an uproar.
First, there was information about the next disaster! Second, this information was provided by players, so its authenticity was unknown.
Which player actually exploited the system's backdoor? Was it a prank? Or did they really know the information and want to charge?
The territories immediately recalled the "Hungry Hungry" territories that had notified Blood Moon last time. Look at their style, a free notification! And look at this player, not only was he unsure of his authenticity, but he was also charging ten points!
But... compared to a mere ten points, the next disaster was of paramount importance. Many territories spent money to purchase it, and then a stockpiling trend began throughout the border ports.
The most noticeable thing is that the price of wood suddenly soared from 10 pieces/1 point to 10 pieces/10 points, and it is showing a trend of continuing to rise.
Even straw, which no one wanted, was put on sale, and the price was not low.
Fur, the most readily available material for warmth, is now in high demand. The sudden appearance of linen "down jackets" filled with willow catkins has also become a hot commodity.
The temperature has dropped dramatically over the past two days, and it's even snowing. The warning of a "frozen snowfield" disaster is undeniable!
Fortunately, there are still four or five days left, so we can prepare some things.
Some shopkeepers thought of Ye Miaomiao and Hu Mifeng, who had bought "cold-proof food" that day. They were too foresighted. Suspicion arose in their hearts.
However, the two did not buy much food at each store and deliberately left a lot for the store owner.
Unless all the shop owners gathered together to discuss it, they wouldn't have noticed that the two had actually bought tens of thousands of points worth of cold-weather food. Naturally, the suspicion in their hearts also disappeared.
In a distant area, Zeng Wei’s hometown, Tianyi Village, received an application for “transferable territory”.
He won!
The chief stood in the middle of the territory, laughing loudly, unable to contain the joy rising in his heart.
Following his own understanding and the guidance of the "Gods", he annihilated all the people in the surrounding territories. He made his way through the sea of blood and mountains of corpses, and finally... finally qualified for the next round!
Now, he is unreasonably powerful!
He can be promoted directly from the D-level area to the A-level, or even the S-level area! He is the next S-level territory, he is the strongest territory!
The surrounding walls of fleshy vines twisted freely and wildly as if they had life, as if responding to the leader's laughter.
Please select...
The leader's red eyes slid across the light screen, suddenly paused, and fixed on the familiar "hungry, hungry, hungry"...Area 1.
There is also a golden yellow star at the top of the first area, and the suffix [S Area: Select this area to receive additional rewards.]
The leader clicked it without hesitation.
He had long since disregarded the resources in Area D, and Area S...that prosperous and hungry territory. A mere foolish Zhang Shuo could carry so many points, and the leader had been coveting it for a long time.
Assuming he could kill all the hungry hungry...
What about the "frozen snowfield"? What about the cold disaster?
Disasters are only for the weak; the strong only need to be invincible and move forward...
He has paid so much, and in the end, the only one standing at the top can only be him!
At this moment, in Margaret's territory in the first district, Margaret looked at the words in front of her in surprise: "Frozen Snowfield: Cold-type disaster, the temperature will drop to at least 40 degrees Celsius."
I thought it was a prank, but it turned out to be true!
As far as I can remember, no one was so kind as to tell everyone about the next disaster for only ten points. At that time, no one was prepared, and many people froze to death.
Who is...
Margaret suddenly felt a little unfair. This way, all the advantages she had in living a new life were gone!
In fact, she had already begun preparing winter supplies. Every minister, including the most important people, had a fur coat. Some nobles didn't have any, but the sudden opening of the border ports gave Margaret the opportunity to buy more.
Unexpectedly... there were so many banquets in the past two days that she was busy attending them and had no time to buy them, but then this news came out again.
It seems that the price of fur will definitely increase a lot... How can she buy it?
What made Margaret even more certain was that the news would soon spread. The three ministers who sympathized with the common people would definitely ask her to prepare cold-weather supplies for them.
Margaret was quite upset by the twists and turns that were beyond her memory, one after another.
Is it as bad as in the previous life?
If a few poor people froze to death, the territory's food consumption would also decrease. Anyway, the common people only knew how to chop trees and dig for minerals, and the resources each person could collect were minimal. This territory relied on the power of the nobles.
Of course, there were also supplies from the East Asian territory... Margaret tried not to think about that.
Worry couldn't help but come over her. Even though she had made a lot of preparations this time, could she really get through it?
Margaret must regroup. She is the jewel of the royal family of Country Y, and all the nobles rely on her. At the very least... she must first purchase enough furs used by the nobles to consolidate her rule!
Compared to other territories that were either panicked, excited, or worried, the atmosphere in Hungry Hungry was extremely calm - the residents had already known about the next disaster and had a plan in mind.
However, this tranquility was disrupted by a brand new restaurant, and there was also an interview for a "baker" next door to the restaurant.
With the announcement of "Celebrating the opening of the zero-star hotel, you can get a free cake for the 'pastry chef' interview if you give a good review!", many people were eagerly waiting for the interview to begin.
There isn't much activity in Hungry Hungry's territory, so this is a big deal!
