Chapter 238 The Secret of the Territory (Part 1)
[That depends on how lucky you are. You can probably block up to half of the damage.]
Although it can only block half, it is enough.
And what Xiao Ai said was very subtle. It can only block half at most, which means that in many cases it may only block about 20% or 30%.
[However, the health of the shield is also very important. It also consumes health to resist the disaster. ]
"Qingqing, I think we need to work hard to make money!"
Luo Zhiqing always felt confused by Shu Lingyi's thinking which was like jumping through space.
"Make money? Gold coins?"
Shu Ling nodded frantically like a chick pecking at rice: "Yes! This protective shield needs gold coins to stack defense, so we have to upgrade it well."
"Wow, sure!"
Since it concerns her own safety, Luo Zhiqing would certainly not refuse. She returned to the house and continued to tinker with her own things.
By the time Shu Ling made dinner in the evening and took out all the level 3 lobsters and cooked them, this large-scale piranha infestation disaster had come to an end.
At this time, there are still 7,982 survivors, which is about 500 fewer than yesterday.
She has survived the disaster, but other districts have not had such a good life.
The proliferation of plants during the Spring Equinox caused many players to cut down trees frantically, resulting in soil erosion when the Qingming Festival arrived.
Moreover, there were no trees left, and even the wooden houses could not be replaced after they became worn out.
They could only watch their house rot and collapse.
Those who are lucky enough to upgrade the stone house will also face the problem of leakage. The price of rain gear is high, making it more difficult for players to survive.
At the same time, there was an outbreak of colds, and in many gaming areas, more than half of the people died in these ten days.
A small number of them may be pretending to have a cold, but they will not live long.
Mudslides and mountain torrents cause even more tragic events, and wooden houses have no defense against them.
Almost everyone in Shuling District 1 has a stone house, but that doesn't mean it's the same in other districts.
A mudslide will destroy everything, including the player's life. A flash flood will destroy everything except the player's life, such as cabins and crops.
If the furnace is still running in this weather, it will be scrapped after the flash flood.
Without a house, they had to face the siege of piranhas brought by the flood.
Players are already unable to move when trapped in the water, and have no effective means of countering piranhas.
There was a scarlet light flashing in the piranha's eyes. It swam its tail, swam over quickly, opened its big mouth, and bit the player's arm directly with two rows of sharp teeth!
"Ah—my hand!"
The piranha bit down and then pulled hard, tearing off a piece of meat.
The pain almost made the player faint, and blood oozed from the wound, attracting more piranhas.
The water was icy cold, and when it touched the wound, the player's face turned grim and he lost his voice...
His legs were also not spared and were surrounded and eaten by piranhas.
Finally, there was only a head floating on the water, and a large amount of bright red blood. The heavy rain washed it mercilessly, and the color soon disappeared.
Such horrific scenes were frequently staged in other districts. Everywhere was a living hell, and even hundreds of districts were completely wiped out...
No one survived.
Somewhere deep in the unknown universe, it seemed as if several pairs of eyes were watching this game.
[A few hundred districts have been lost. These humans are so fragile.]
The first voice seemed to be a female voice, with a cold tone and a hint of disgust.
Then someone else spoke, and this time it was hard to tell whether the man or woman was male or female. The voice was ethereal and quiet, with a hint of alienation.
[These humans are originally a low-level civilization, so it is normal for them to be fragile. Aren’t there a few areas that are developing well?]
[So do you really want to choose a successor, among these humans?]
The female voice found it a little unbelievable, while the other was very indifferent.
[Why not? This game is an elimination game, but I found some very good candidates.]
[As long as you are happy.]
The two voices chatted casually for a few words, and then gradually disappeared into the vast universe.
At this time, Su Ranran was killing those piranhas at the door of the house, and she looked very unhappy.
The public screen was filled with some people's boasting, and Su Ranran was the object of their ridicule.
[Drink more hot water]: "Haha, I want to see how Aunt Thirteen lives these days."
[Thirteen Yi]: "Don't worry, your aunt is fine. With the blessing of your parents' spirits in heaven, I will live longer than you."
【Drink more hot water】: "You!"
[Poison Sting]: "Don't bother with this crazy woman. We live in the territory now. Monsters can't get in. It's safer than her anyway."
[Wenwen]: "To be honest, Aunt Thirteen, there's no need for you to be so stubborn. I still admire your strength."
[Wenwen]: "As the only territory lord in our district, as long as you provide enough supplies, I can send you a safe route."
At this time, Li Junwen was eating in his room. He was a middle-aged man, probably in his forties, with dark skin and a crew cut.
He is tall and strong, and his hands show that he has been doing farm work all year round.
Before he came into this game, he was a security guard. When he was young, he didn't receive much education and just followed his parents to farm and do farm work at home.
So he learned to make some simple pesticides by himself, and in the last solar term he helped many people survive with this.
Li Junwen was overjoyed when he found out that he had the lord's order. The first thing he did was to establish a territory and then tell everyone about it.
As long as you offer enough supplies for the trade, he will provide a safe route out.
Especially the group of people who called him Big Brother, they worked hard for several days to collect 20 gold coins, and then rushed to his territory in a hurry.
As for the players in the newly merged area, they have no idea about the original situation in the area.
After seeing Su Ranran's "stubbornness" and Li Junwen's "simple and honest" behavior on the public screen, they all joined Li Junwen's camp.
Only a small number of people are in a wait-and-see state, not expressing their opinions, and just living their own lives.
"Several more residents came today. Now there are more than 500 residents..."
Looking at the data displayed in the details of his territory, Li Junwen was very satisfied.
Even among those who came, few had any particularly outstanding skills. They were all guys who relied on brute force.
"Brother Junwen, we have dealt with all the more than a thousand piranhas outside the territory, but... ten of our brothers have died."
"How could this happen? Didn't I ask you to mobilize all your forces?"
Li Junwen frowned. Today's flood brought a large group of piranhas, more than a thousand in number, densely surrounding the territory.
