Su Han sat on the rattan chair and looked out, unable to help but feel a palpitation - the fog was getting thicker and thicker. If she stood in the fog, she could only see the scenery within half a meter around her, and she couldn't see clearly at all if it was far away.
If a group of people gathered together and robbed people on the road, whoever they caught would be in trouble. Therefore, for safety reasons, Su Han stayed in the bamboo house and did not go anywhere.
At 9 a.m. the next day, the system's mechanical voice announced, "On the fifth day, the fog on the island has dissipated, but there are still layers of fog covering the outer edges of the island."
"Due to poor air quality (affected by fog), people may contract rhinitis. (People with a cleanliness score of >60 will be immune)"
"There have been a lot of car accidents in recent days, and there are many patients. The hospital's stock of medicines has been exhausted."
As soon as he finished speaking, the thick fog covering the island gradually dissipated.
But Su Han's mood did not relax, but was particularly heavy. Although the residents were able to move freely on the island, the fog still surrounded the island, and the transport ship might not be able to get through. The people might get rhinitis, but the hospital's medicines had been exhausted, and the world would probably be in chaos soon.
Su Han was thinking about a strategy to pass the level when the system's mechanical voice sounded again, "Experience value 30/30, congratulations, player level +1, talent level +1."
The transparent color attribute panel reads:
Name: Su Han (real name verification)
Level: 2 (Experience 0/30)
Occupation: Nutritionist (with intermediate talent, experience value 0/30)
Fullness: 220/220
Cleanliness: 220/220
Stamina: 220/220
Talented Skills (Intermediate): In the dungeon, there is a 45% chance of getting a "bottle of milk + a piece of brown bread" set meal every day. There is a 10% chance of getting a "three bottles of milk + a piece of pork floss butter bread + a piece of chocolate cake" deluxe set meal. There is a 1% chance of getting precious food.
Note: The above probability events can occur simultaneously.
Su Han was slightly stunned. She hadn't had time to eat breakfast after getting up in the morning, but she didn't expect that after the upgrade, all three attributes would be full.
Talent skills are very practical. After upgrading, the chance of obtaining clean drinking water and food is greatly increased, and there is even an additional attribute of "1% chance of obtaining precious food". Although I don't know what precious food is, I can guess that it is definitely good stuff.
As for the upgraded fullness +100, cleanliness +100, and physical strength +100, it is even more delightful. The original upper limit was 120, and cleanliness below 60 might cause rhinitis, so you need to be vigilant. But now the upper limit is 220, so you don't need to worry too much.
After being upgraded to level 2, both the survivability and adaptability are much stronger than before.
Only then did Su Han clearly realize how important it was to clear the dungeon. As for what the forum said about "leaving the dungeon a few days in advance is the most cost-effective", it was pure nonsense.

When the islanders learned that the hospital had run out of medicine, they immediately fell into panic. People ran around asking what was going on, why there was no medicine, and where was the transport ship?
The hospital staff had no choice but to tell the truth, "The transport ship hasn't come for several days. Or rather, it hasn't come since the fog appeared."
As soon as this was said, it immediately caused an uproar. Has the stock been consumed these days? How long can the stock last? When will the transport ship arrive?
Doubts were raised one after another. The more people thought about it, the more uncertain they felt. Large numbers of residents rushed into supermarkets to buy, fearing that the goods would be sold out if they were late.
However, the more panic spreads, the faster the supermarkets will collapse.
At 12:16 noon, the system's mechanical voice suddenly sounded, "The supermarket was looted, the stock was emptied, and it will be completely closed from today."
"It's coming, it's coming, it's going to be chaos." Su Han kept muttering.
The next second, there was a knock on the bedroom door.
Su Han was startled, thinking that the chaos would happen directly to his door, but after thinking about it for a while, he knew that it was impossible.
"Open the door, it's me." Xiao Yanxue's voice sounded outside the door.
Su Han walked over and opened the door.
"Something happened." Xiao Yanxue's face was particularly solemn. "The transport ship hasn't come for several days, and the supplies on the island are running low. I told you to stock up on food and daily necessities. Have you stocked up?"
Su Han nodded, "I stocked up."
Xiao Yanxue breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. If the two of us stay in the bamboo house, we should be able to hold out for several days."
Su Han was a little embarrassed. In fact, her rent was just enough to last until the fifth day. "Well, I'll only rent until today..." She had to move out tomorrow morning.
Xiao Yanxue interrupted sternly, "It's a mess outside, where do you want to go? Listen to me, it's safest to stay in the bamboo house. Besides, this place is close to the sea, we can go to the beach at night to pick up some seafood and cook it."
Su Han, "..."
She actually just wanted to play alone, but Xiao Yanxue seemed determined to take her flying. The question was, was Xiao Yanxue a big shot? Could she take her flying? Could the two of them fly?
Su Han expressed doubt.
But she had managed to disguise herself as an NPC, and she really didn't want to tell the other party directly, "I'm a high-level player, just take care of yourself and don't worry about it."
She could only agree casually, "That makes sense."
Then, Xiao Yanxue asked earnestly, in a businesslike manner, "How much have you prepared?"
"Milk, brown bread, instant noodles, toothpaste, toothbrush, soap..." Su Han casually listed a few items and concluded, "It will probably last a week."
Xiao Yanxue's eyes suddenly showed ecstasy. That expression was as if she had discovered a gold mine. But soon she tried her best to suppress the ecstasy in her heart, coughed lightly, and said calmly, "It's good. With these things, I should be able to hold on longer."
Su Han noticed something strange, and her eyes flickered. At first, she thought Xiao Yanxue was kind-hearted, so she reminded her to stock up, but now... she couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Xiao Yanxue was treating her as a resource? Coaxing her to buy food and daily necessities, and then finding an opportunity to harm her, so that she could naturally take over the supplies in the room?
Thinking about it carefully, Xiao Yanxue's behavior was indeed very suspicious, and she cared too much about her.
"Where are the things? Where did you put them?" Xiao Yanxue couldn't help but ask.
Su Han looked back quietly without saying anything, but he became more alert in his heart.
"Ahem." Xiao Yanxue calmed herself down and tried not to look so anxious. "I just wanted to put the supplies that the two of us prepared together so that it would be easier to guard them."
"No need." Su Han determined that something was wrong, and his voice became cold.
Xiao Yanxue wanted to say something, but her eyes rolled and she swallowed her words back. She smiled lightly, looking extremely kind, and said nonchalantly, "Then keep them separately."
"Yeah." Su Han responded, then secretly looked at Xiao Yanxue with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
But Xiao Yanxue walked away without saying anything.
In the room, Su Han fell into deep thought.
**
In the evening, Su Han took a pack of instant noodles to the kitchen.
On the first floor, Xiao Yanxue was busy. She filled empty buckets with tap water and put them aside. At the same time, water was boiling on the stove.
Su Han paused. In fact, if tap water is put into an empty bucket and it is not sealed, a large number of bacteria will be produced inside. The same is true for boiled water.
She didn't know what the settings in the game were, and whether it would bring her negative effects. She had never tried it because she had stockpiled enough bottled mineral water.
But if you think about it carefully, the lack of clean drinking water will inevitably lead to negative conditions, and drinking unclean water resources can easily cause diseases. So drinking tap water with more bacteria should be better than the former two.
"Instant noodles for dinner?" Xiao Yanxue took a break from her busy schedule and greeted him, "The water is about to boil, come over."
"Okay." Su Han walked calmly to Xiao Yanxue's side, secretly on guard, waiting for this guy to give her a surprise after a sneak attack.
"I have filled up a lot of water, you can use it if you need it. But I'm afraid the water, electricity and natural gas will be cut off later." Xiao Yanxue looked worried.
Su Han had a blank expression on her face. She thought that Xiao Yanxue probably didn't take her words to heart at all. She said that the rent was due and she would leave tomorrow, but she talked as if they were going to stay in the bamboo house together for a long time.
However, she showed no sign of abnormality and simply boiled the noodles in water and added seasonings.
The fragrance is fragrant and spreads all around.
Xiao Yanxue closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and showed an intoxicated look, "It smells so good. I haven't eaten instant noodles for a long time, it's a pity that I forgot to stock up." At the end, she couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
Su Han asked, "What have you stockpiled?"
"Cornmeal, steamed buns, and the like." Xiao Yanxue smiled sheepishly, "Didn't I tell you? I ran away from home and didn't have enough money, so I could only stock up on cheap things."
Su Han thought to himself, this guy is quite good at talking nonsense. He even remembered to make his remarks consistent and maintain his character.
"If you want to eat, I'll give you the instant noodles." Su Han said slowly.
Xiao Yanxue's lips curled up slightly, with a little pride that her plan had worked. But the next second, she heard her roommate continue, "I really want to eat fried cornmeal and cornmeal porridge. Let's exchange."
Xiao Yanxue's smile froze on her face. She turned her head slowly, with a hint of disbelief, "Exchange?"
Su Han replied as a matter of course, "Don't you want to eat instant noodles? I just happen to want to eat cornmeal porridge, so let's change it."
Xiao Yanxue, "..."
What the hell! How is this different from eating yourself?
She thought that it was thanks to her reminder that her roommate stocked up on food and daily necessities, and she should be grateful. So when she said she wanted to eat instant noodles, her roommate should have taken the initiative to treat her to dinner.
Xiao Yanxue lowered her head and said nothing, but Su Han insisted, "I think we should both eat cornmeal first. Think about it, without water, electricity, or natural gas, we can still eat instant noodles, but not cornmeal. So it's better to eat cornmeal first."
Xiao Yanxue's eyelids twitched. Not only did she refuse to share her food, but she also planned to eat it all herself first! She was simply ungrateful and cruel!
"No need, let's just eat our own food." Xiao Yanxue said this harshly and went back to her room angrily.
Su Han murmured softly, his voice almost inaudible, "I actually thought she wanted to kill people for supplies. I overestimated her." She was just relying on her thick skin to try to get free food and drinks. There was no other way but to reject her coldly.
