No. 22
When Fu Tian and the other two returned to their temporary base, the other two teams also came back.
One team brought back some firewood, and the other team brought back some refreshed winter vegetables.
Walking in front was a boy from Tang Ji's group named Wu Qiong. He had small eyes and a long face, and holding two large bundles of radishes, he looked somehow funny.
A girl walked out from behind Teacher Duan, and said with a pretty smile, "Why don't you put it in your backpack? You have to carry it by hand. It's too rustic."
Wu Qiong didn't get angry either, and replied with a smile, "Isn't this a more rewarding feeling?"
However, Fu Tian saw Tian Xiaoling secretly curl her lips and became cautious.
Tang Ji glanced around and changed the subject, "Teacher Duan, we found a bunch of food spawn points over there, so we picked some and brought them back, but didn't go deeper."
"The food has been refreshed, which means there must be more inside. We were right not to go deeper. Let's go and take a look together tomorrow morning." Duan Chan took over the conversation. "Let's grill something to eat first."
According to Tang Ji and the others, the food refresh points discovered by the four-member team mainly include radishes, sweet potatoes, and some spinach.
Nothing else, just the food refreshes very quickly.
Some players have conducted research on spawn points in the game to better understand how to farm supplies and monsters. They found that vegetables spawn every ten to fifteen minutes, while meat monsters spawn every half an hour or less.
But the radishes and sweet potatoes in this copy almost grow again once they are harvested.
"Does that mean the flow rate inside the copy is ten times faster than outside?" Fu Tian raised the question at the right time.
"The specific time flow rate is uncertain, but it is true that the flow rate is fast." Tang Ji agreed.
Someone immediately chimed in, the same girl who had laughed at Wu Qiong before, "No wonder when we were chopping firewood, I saw some of the wood stakes that Teacher Duan had cut seemed to be growing upwards a bit."
"Really?" The girl on the same team was extremely confused. "I really didn't notice it."
The girl said, "Qianqian, you were busy collecting firewood, so of course you didn't see it. I was afraid that Teacher Duan would chop his hands, so I kept an eye on him."
The girl called Qianqian had no doubts, "So that's how it is. Quxi, you're really attentive."
"That's natural."
"Okay." Duan Chan stopped talking and said, "If that's the case, then you guys should see if there's anything you need to prepare. Get ready."
"After all, this is your military training trial, and this trial is different from the previous ones. Failure will not endanger your life. I have brought the basic supplies, and you can handle the rest on your own."
As soon as he said this, Teacher Duan's attitude was clearly shown.
This is normal. In previous trials in the alliance, the teachers of the Survival Department only built some basic facilities and brought medical supplies to ensure that the students' lives would not be in danger.
But now it’s in the game, it’s different.
The reason why Teacher Duan is still in the dungeon is simply because everyone found that they cannot log off after entering the dungeon.
Even the freshmen who were used to being led by someone were a little uncomfortable when they were suddenly reminded of this.
Fu Tian took a look at the atmosphere and said, "Let's roast some sweet potatoes first. I see my fatigue level is about to drop by 10%. It would be too unfair if I failed to pass the level because of this."
"Oh, it's true." Tian Xiaoling glanced at her character information and saw the precarious red line. She said hurriedly, "Since we didn't bring anything back just now, let's roast it."
As he said that, he took the sweet potato and walked towards the fire. Rui Si glanced at everyone and hurriedly followed him.
The other few people were also happy and relaxed, so they sat nearby and boiled some water to help.
Qu Xi sat in the middle of the crowd. Although she was talking to the boy next to her, her eyes kept glancing at Tang Ji who was sitting alone and on guard in the distance.
She came from a satellite star of the main star of the alliance. Before she came, her mother's request to her was to find a real rich husband for the family.
Although her family lived on a satellite planet, they had become rich overnight thanks to mineral resources from the outer interstellar space, and they had no real foundation. On the satellite planet, their status was only slightly higher than that of other ordinary families, but it was incomparable to the true great families.
Even Qu Xi's grades were obtained through a backdoor.
As a less popular major at the Alliance's top college, the Food Department offers two ways to gain admission: either through an entrance exam or by selling food-related patents to the school.
Qu Xi was brought in by her father in the second way.
It’s just that these students all came from remote galaxies and didn’t know her background.
Some people only heard that she came from an affiliated star, and thought that her family was powerful, but only Qu Xi herself knew the truth.
But Tang Ji is different. He is the real son of the commander of the Fifth Army. Not only is he handsome, but he also has outstanding abilities.
Usually, these outstanding students are all in the Mecha Command Department or other popular majors, which is not something a student from Quxi's unpopular major would ever meet.
Now that we have finally come across this opportunity, we must seize the opportunity.
She wanted to go up and talk to him, but she didn't want to leave a bad impression by being too obvious, so she could only stare at the sweet potato, hoping it would ripen quickly.
In the end, it even reached the point of looking forward to it.
Li Qianqian, who was sitting on his left, saw this and said hurriedly, "Quxi, are you hungry? If you're really feeling uncomfortable, why not eat some raw sweet potatoes? You can eat them raw anyway."
But she knew that once the fatigue value fell below the red line, she would experience stomach pain, dizziness and other symptoms.
It's so uncomfortable.
Qu Xi paused for a moment before saying, "I'm fine. I'll be fine soon. I think the sweet potatoes are almost cooked."
Hearing people say this, Li Qianqian said no more.
After a while, the sweet potatoes were finally ready.
Fu Tian distributed them to people one by one.
Qu Xi got a large one and was about to trade it with Tang Ji, using her small appetite as an excuse, when she saw Fu Tian walk over with an extra-large sweet potato.
Fu Tian didn't know that she had ruined someone's good fortune. She took the extra large one simply because she knew how much Tang Ji ate.
Here, Tang Ji was standing guard when he saw the familiar school girl coming over and handing him a sweet potato as big as a football.
Tang Ji raised an eyebrow, "?"
"People with higher levels have higher fatigue values and larger appetites." Fu Tian said calmly.
So that's it, he thought...
Tang Ji calmly accepted the sweet potato and started eating it.
Fu Tian stood aside and ate her own sweet potato.
As expected of a dungeon product, the harvested sweet potatoes were large and plump. The aroma of the red sweet potatoes alone was incredible, and they were even softer and sweeter when eaten.
Especially in this freezing cold weather, eating a bite of hot red sweet potato can really warm your heart.
Fu Tian, who was about to strike up a conversation, was instantly captivated by the sweet potato and couldn't stop eating it.
Halfway through chewing, Tang Ji casually said, "Come to think of it, I actually think that Fu Xuemei's voice is a bit like that of a friend of mine."
"Really?" Fu Tian replied indifferently, "Maybe all girls' voices are similar."
"Maybe." Tang Ji responded.
The two looked at each other in silence for a moment.
Fu Tian still felt a little magical in her heart. You know, since they met as "the only one in the world", Tang Ji was the one who took the initiative more often when they were together.
As a result, now that he has changed his identity, he is being treated coldly.
Sure enough, the generosity and kindness that someone usually portrays towards others are all filters added by girls.
Recalling the first time we met in the auditorium, the person who was speaking as a representative seemed to be smiling among the crowd, but in fact he was pushing everyone away.
Fu Tian couldn't help but sigh that her vision was really good.
After taking a few more bites of the sweet potato, she saw that someone still hadn't spoken, so she sighed inwardly and prepared to bring up the matter herself.
Teacher Duan decided not to care about the customs clearance issue. Among all the people, she trusted the other person the most.
"Speaking of which, Senior Tang, do you smell a strange fragrance?"
Hearing this, Tang Ji moved his nose and seemed to really smell something, "It seems so."
Fu Tian was about to continue when she saw someone's expression of sudden realization, "Oh, it turns out to be the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes."
“…” I really want to beat someone up.
Tang Ji smiled and said, "I hope you don't mind if I'm just joking, Sister Fu. The main thing is that I really don't smell any fragrance. I'm really sorry."
The other party said this, which probably means he really didn't smell it.
Is there something wrong with her nose?
"Okay, maybe I smelled it wrong." Fu Tian shook her head indifferently, "Then I won't disturb you while you're having your meal."
After hitting a snag, Fu Tian lost interest in exploring.
In the distance, Qu Xi, who saw this scene, was secretly delighted.
I asked you to strike up a conversation, but you hit a snag.
Just as she was shaking her head happily, Li Qianqian next to her handed over another big sweet potato, "Quxi, here~, I see you like it so much, have another one."
Qu Xi: “…” No one understands her happiness.
Fu Tian naturally had no idea about someone's emotions, and she was still thinking about the fragrance.
I have a vague feeling that this scent will be the key to clearing the dungeon, but...
The subtle fragrance from before was indeed only for a moment. She also asked Tian Xiaoling and others at that time, and got the same negative conclusion.
If one person can't figure it out, it's better to work together. Fu Tian mentioned this matter after dinner so that everyone would pay attention to it.
Then they made a plan for tomorrow and prepared to rest.
It is called a rest, but in fact it is just a short nap. When the speed of time is still uncertain, it may be dawn before long.
The wind was blowing hard outside, and the whistling sound was accompanied by large snowflakes blowing past my ears.
Fu Tian was lying at the very edge of the tent with her eyes closed, with Tian Xiaoling, Li Qianqian and Qu Xi next to her.
The middle should have been the warmest position, but Tian Xiaoling and Qu Xi seemed to have some conflicts and they didn't want to be next to each other, so Qu Xi ended up at the edge on the other side.
Time passed quickly, the wind was strong outside, and Fu Tian seemed to smell the fragrance again.
My consciousness began to fade, and at that moment I suddenly heard a scream coming from Quxi on the other side.
"Snakes are coming in—lots of snakes—"
Everyone was awakened!
