During the digging of the canal, Su Han and Zhong Rui always took breaks during the day and worked together at night. Now that the canal is complete, they have to face the problem of night watch again.
"The outer circle has already dug a river channel, and most animals can't get through. Why don't we arrange no one to guard the night?" Zhong Rui discussed with his friends. After doing hard labor for several days, both of them were very tired.
Su Han nodded in agreement.
The communication was so smooth that Zhong Rui could hardly believe the reality.
"We both have high physical strength limits. If there is an emergency, we can deal with it calmly when we wake up." Su Han's expression was serious. But at the end, she added, "I will upgrade tomorrow."
Zhong Rui understood instantly. Whether the remaining stamina was 10% or 90%, it would be restored to full value at 9 am tomorrow. So as long as there was no danger to life at night, this guy probably planned to pretend he didn't know...
"Go to sleep." Zhong Rui pretended not to know and asked his friends to rest.
So they both got into their sleeping bags and slept soundly in the tent.
Have a good night's sleep.
In the early morning, Su Han woke up and found that he only had 721 physical strength left. He felt very melancholy - it seemed a bit of a waste to upgrade in his current state.
Zhong Rui woke up at the right time, yawned and said, "Let's go catch the electric eel?"
Su Han's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly.
By placing the wooden boards on both sides of the river, the two men easily reached the other side of the river.
Then he pulled the board away and hid it nearby. Then he said, "Let's go to the stream."
The two walked on the road one after the other, always keeping alert and looking at the surrounding environment.
Suddenly, Su Han felt as if she had stepped on something. When she took a step forward the next second, she found that she could not walk.
Looking down, she saw her ankles were entangled in green leaves.
"What is this?" Su Han frowned and tried to pull his foot out. But the more he struggled, the tighter the leaves became.
"Be careful! That's witch grass!" Zhong Rui warned, and hurried towards Su Han. Unexpectedly, he accidentally touched a few flowers, and branches and leaves immediately rushed over and wrapped him tightly.
Zhong Rui took out his saber without hesitation and chopped the branches.
At the same time, Su Han used a dagger to cut open the green leaves and finally regained his freedom.
"Walk!"
After the two escaped from danger, they didn't bother to say anything and ran away. Su Han didn't stop until he ran a long way, panting.
Zhong Rui exhaled slowly, and then explained, "The one that's wrapped around you is called witch grass, and it looks very beautiful. Once an animal steps on it, it will be tightly grasped by the green leaves and cannot move."
"If you don't have a sharp weapon and can't cut through the green leaves to escape, the final outcome will be starvation."
"What attacked me was the man-eating tree. Once prey gets close, its branches and leaves will wrap around the target tightly until the prey dies. If you have a weapon like a machete or dagger, you can escape by cutting off the branches."
"The world outside is really dangerous." Su Han was still terrified. But the next second, the desire to build a safety barrier became stronger.
The situation looked serious, but in fact, neither of them was injured.
After a short rest, Zhong Rui casually said, "Go on." Then he started walking.
"Yeah." Su Han responded and was about to follow. His eyes glanced at the bushes not far away, but his eyes froze. What was that?
She quickly grabbed Zhong Rui and pointed in the direction of the bushes.
Zhong Rui didn't understand at first, but after observing it again and again, he finally realized that the small part that was exposed seemed to be a crocodile's tail?
Zhong Rui was not afraid of large beasts, but he was restrained a lot in the primeval forest. The system obviously did not allow players to set fire to trees, so weapons that were easily ignited, such as gunpowder, grenades, and rocket launchers, could only be avoided as much as possible.
On the other hand, there are so many ferocious beasts in the primeval forest. If you can kill one, can you kill all of them? Impossible.
Therefore, weapons are only used for self-defense and not for active attack or provocation.
Zhong Rui pulled Su Han's finger and whispered, "This way."
The two men tried to move in a direction away from the crocodile. When they were sure it was safe, they left without looking back.
After going around in a big circle, the two finally arrived at the stream.
However, at this moment, the stream was bustling with activity.
A buffalo with an injured left leg was alone and was being besieged by nearly twenty jackals.
Although the buffalo roared in an attempt to scare off the enemy, it was actually forced to retreat step by step.
Before anyone knew it, the smell of blood spread in the stream.
The jackals were just about to organize the next wave of attack, but in the blink of an eye, a group of piranhas pounced fiercely on the buffalo!
The teeth of the piranha are triangular and have an amazing bite force, which can easily tear the prey into pieces. In a short while, the buffalo was eaten clean, leaving only a pile of bones.
The jackals retreated step by step, and finally decided to leave and look for other prey.
Jackals are at the top of the food chain, but when faced with the more difficult piranhas, they wisely choose to retreat.
"I didn't expect there are piranhas in the primeval forest." Zhong Rui was surprised and delighted. These creatures attack in groups, much more ferocious than electric eels!
He immediately turned around and asked his friend, "Instead of electric eels, how about catching piranhas instead?"
Su Han had no expression on his face and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know how to catch piranhas?"
She never thought that one day she would be cool enough to keep a piranha as a house pet, so she never thought about learning about the relevant information.
Zhong Rui began to take out his personal storage and said confidently, "I have a fishing net."
Su Han thought, I almost forgot, this guy has a cheating tool. After thinking about it, she nodded solemnly, "That's it, but we have to divert the water first."
"Dig a ditch and divert the stream water over there." Zhong Rui suggested.
So the two of them got busy again.
For the first time, Su Han felt that playing stand-alone was a bad habit. When he needed help, he couldn't even get a slave!
The only thing to be thankful for was that the campsite was not far from the stream. It took less than two hours to complete the ditch.
But then, a new problem arose: "What if the piranha escapes after being caught?"
Zhong Rui took out a protective net from his portable storage like a magic trick and set it between the ditch and the river. In this way, the water can flow freely but the fish cannot swim out.
Su Han was shocked, "How come you have everything?"
Zhong Rui smiled reservedly, but he was thinking in his heart, how can I be your teammate if I don’t have any special skills?
The stream water flowed into the river through the ditch, quickly filling the river to 60% full.
Then the two men came to the stream again, one cast a net to catch fish, and the other used a wooden bucket, and they caught as many piranhas as they wanted.
Just as the barrel was about to be filled, the system's mechanical voice prompted, "Game Day 6."
As soon as he finished speaking, a light drizzle began to fall.
At the same time, the system's mechanical voice sounded beside Su Han's ears, "Experience value 30/30, congratulations, player level +1, hunger value limit +100, cleanliness limit +100, physical strength limit +100."
The transparent color attribute panel reads:
Name: Su Han (real name verification)
Level: 8 (Experience 0/30)
Occupation 1: Nutritionist (with top talent, cannot be upgraded)
Occupation 2: Soap Maker (with top talent, cannot be upgraded)
Fullness: 980/980
Cleanliness: 980/980
Stamina: 980/980
The raindrops hit the ground with a crisp and pleasant sound, like a piece of music.
"Let's go back to the camp to avoid the rain." Zhong Rui took the initiative to pick up the wooden barrel and returned in the rain.
Su Han quickly followed.
After returning to the camp, Zhong Rui dumped all the caught piranhas into the canal.
Soon, the piranhas spread out and adapted well.
Su Han flipped over the wooden board, walked to the other side of the river, hid in the tent, then slowly exhaled.
Zhong Rui stepped into the tent last, and said with a pleased tone, "The campsite has finally become presentable. All our efforts have paid off."
"Who said it wasn't?" Su Han sighed.
During the days of digging the river, each person consumed nearly 200 cleanliness points every day! Even though she had the profession of "Soap Maker", she still couldn't make ends meet. If she hadn't saved a lot of money in the previous dungeon, the plan to build a fortress would have been shelved long ago.
Although the supplies were sufficient, she still felt terrified watching the inventory being consumed so quickly every day. It was as if every time she consumed some supplies, she was one step closer to death...
Suddenly, Su Han recalled the panic of watching the supplies dwindle.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. When she opened her eyes again, her mood had returned to normal.
Zhong Rui was thinking nearby, "Let's go catch some piranhas when we have time. With them guarding the camp, the camp will be especially safe."
"It's not a good idea to live in a tent all the time. It's better to build a wooden house. If there is a bamboo forest and we can build a bamboo house, that would be even better."
"As for the rest... we'll talk about it after we finish building the bamboo house."
Su Han had a different opinion on this. She thought that for the sake of inventory, the two of them should stay quiet for a few days. Otherwise, no matter how much daily necessities they had in stock, they would not be able to keep up with the consumption.
It's just that the rain is getting heavier and heavier, with no sign of stopping. There's no point in discussing this now.
So she sat quietly aside, waiting patiently for the weather to clear.
**
In an office of Jinjiang Group, there is a screen hanging on each wall.
The screen on the left kept updating line by line, "Player on server 2779 was eliminated."
"Players on server 58 are eliminated."
"Player on server 6794 was eliminated."
"Player on server 764 is eliminated."
There is only one number on the right screen: "937." This is the current number of surviving players.
After a while, the numbers jumped and became "936".
Then it continued to beat and became "933".
Li Yue, the designer of the final battle, smiled complacently. Nine out of ten players would be eliminated on the sixth day, and everyone would be eliminated on the tenth day. This was in line with his plan.
At this moment, one of them raised his head, his expression helpless, and his tone extremely heavy, "Manager, I think we may be in trouble."
Li Yue's eyelids twitched, and he had an ominous premonition. He took a deep breath and managed to calm down. "Speak."
"On a certain server, a male and a female player teamed up. They did not hide everywhere, but chose a location to stay. At present, they have completed the construction of the moat and injected stream water and piranhas into it." The person who spoke became weaker and weaker. "Calculating the talent probability and inventory items, we know that if they hide in the camp all the time, they can survive for at least 30 days..."
"Starting from the 11th day, the difficulty of the copy will increase!" Li Yue answered without hesitation.
All the men immediately took orders and started typing on their keyboards loudly.
That person asked, "They have a very good relationship and have never quarreled with each other. What if they can't decide the winner in the end?"
Li Yue glanced at him and said coldly, "Not enough work?" That's why you have the free time to think about all sorts of things.
The man shrank his head and immediately turned his gaze back to the computer screen, not daring to say anything more.
Little did he know that at this moment, Li Yue's face was filled with tears. Damn it! You ask me, who should I ask...
