Chapter 813 Wind and Snow (8)
Does this mean that players can now rent a house legally and reasonably? !
It is actually very difficult for many players to put together this house. The materials may not be much, but they are not cheap, and the production efficiency is limited...
In addition to supplying the old players in the territory, there are also players who already have material priority. If the remaining players want to gather all the materials, it will probably take at least until the next solar term.
There has been no death in the game area so far, but this setting has appeared in the houses, which means that many people may be left without a place to live in the future.
I remembered how many people died on the first day of Cold Dew because they did not upgrade their houses between the Beginning of Autumn and Cold Dew.
"Will something similar happen this time?"
She felt a little upset, and what responded to her was Xiao Ai's suggestion.
[That's natural. Once you enter the courtyard, you can't even bear the current snow, let alone the natural disasters in the future. ]
There were also many players following Shu Ling's steps into the new house, and the first place they stepped into was naturally the front hall of the house.
There is a round moon gate right in front. Standing in this huge courtyard, the cloud-patterned black iron bricks under your feet are coated with a layer of green jade ceiling paint.
Originally, cloud-patterned black iron bricks are a kind of gray-black black iron bricks, which are very thick and simple, and also do not appear luxurious enough.
But it is different with the green jade ceiling paint, which makes the cloud pattern on the ground more vivid and lustrous. The cold air outside the house floats in, accompanied by snowflakes, and directly forms a rising cloud pattern on the ground!
The cold air coming up from underground will be strictly isolated, and as the temperature drops, the cold will invade from all directions.
Especially underground, it is hard to defend against the cold, and only by turning on the fireplace can the cold be gradually dispelled.
But now it’s different. This cloud-patterned black iron brick makes it impossible for people to feel the chill coming from the ground.
At the same time, because a breeze will blow in when the door is opened, white mist will rise in the house. The cloud pattern on the ground combined with the light and shadow effect brought by the jade ceiling paint makes it even more ethereal and magnificent.
Each player felt as if they had really stepped into some fairyland or heavenly palace.
"Okay, okay, I thought it was just the Imperial Palace, but I didn't expect to live directly in the Immortal Palace. The defense value is maxed out, and the durability is amazing!"
Shu Lingyi was indeed greatly shocked. With a defense value of 99999 and a durability of 100,000 points, this house is now indestructible!
Compared to entering the courtyard, the space has increased tenfold!
If there were any natural disasters in the future that needed to be avoided by using this kind of house, she couldn't even imagine how terrible the destructive power of the disaster would be.
"It's so luxurious, the inside and outside look different, it's so beautiful!"
"This is so beautiful! I want to gather all the materials and upgrade my house as soon as possible. This value is really amazing. I can't even imagine how safe I would feel living in a house like this!"
"But these materials are really expensive, and the number of bricks and tiles required is quite a lot..."
"Even if I release some for sale every day, I don't know when I can get enough materials for upgrading."
Shu Lingyi listened to all the discussions behind her, and after touring the new house, she took everyone to eat first.
In addition to her, Su Ranran, Luo Zhiqing, Shu Ying, or [Xia Ribinbin], [Yu Bai] and several others upgraded their courtyards today.
So today is a happy and auspicious day, and some players took out the Snow Treasure Meatballs series that they had obtained from the treasure chest before and ate them with hot pot.
Shu Ling had been working with Yun Bao, others and his mother to prepare a more suitable hot pot base since the afternoon.
Paired with the previous vegetables, meat, and snow meatballs, it tastes like a real feast!
[Su Zhao]: "Oh my god, the food in these two territories is too good!"
【The Sun is the One I Bitten】: "This is not nonsense. I have said before that if you eat two solar terms here, your combat power will increase."
[Yin who loves to read novels]: "Yes, I came to this territory three solar terms ago. After joining this territory, my combat power has really increased rapidly. I am much more capable of resisting the beast tide."
【The Miserable Heavenly Demon】: "We are lucky."
【Zi Bu Yu】: "That courtyard is really huge. There must be several extra rooms."
[Yi Ling]: "Yes, and I discovered that after upgrading the two-entry courtyard, as the owner of the house, I can open the panels of the four lease contracts for the east and west wing rooms."
[Yi Ling]: "There is even a setting for dividing rooms based on the proportion of joint investment. There are only two places for this, so we need to completely divide up the rooms in the east and west wings."
【The Miserable Demon】: "Ah ha? What is that——"
[Xin Jing]: "So, after upgrading the courtyard house, it can be rented out? No, it can also be purchased as a joint venture?!"
[Yin who loves to read novels]: "Fuck, there is such a good thing!"
She, Xing Yuan, Cang Sheng and others who were with them at the time all moved here temporarily. Several of the players who were traveling with them were unlucky enough to have their territories affected by the whale explosion, and they couldn't even bring their houses with them.
There are also players that Shuying had received from the Pixiu Territory, none of whom had their own courtyard foundation.
The situation is different now. With this, wouldn't it be possible to make a reasonable contract?
After all, the previous contract was not as secure as the one provided by the system, and the right of interpretation was always in the hands of the renting player.
[Yan Xingchen]: "It means that players can jointly invest in the purchase, with up to three people buying a house together. This way, the pressure is really small!"
[Chopper Rabbit]: "Then we, along with Sister Qingyu, can buy a house together. If we work together, we can make rapid progress!"
[Tian Mozi, the God of Misery]: "Then I'm going to find Yu Yuan to buy a house together. It would be best if I could find a partner..."
While eating hot pot, the players gathered together to discuss this matter happily and found familiar and trusted friends to buy a house together.
This way, we will surely be able to buy a house together and move into our dream house as soon as possible!
【Xin Jing】: "Okay, okay, now I have something to look forward to."
As a master-level chemical researcher, it is naturally easy for Xin Jing to give examples of upgrading houses.
[Jungle]: "Wuhu, now I can live with Sister Jingzhao!"
[Xia Ri Bin Bin]: "This is good. Right now, supplies are refreshing very slowly, and production efficiency has reached its upper limit. If we can buy a house together, it will be much easier for me."
【One Two Three Four Seven Seven Seven】: "It's just... the purpose of games is to relax us, right? This feels weird."
[Dancing Shadows]: "The value of the two-courtyard courtyard is ridiculously high. This situation shows that this kind of house is necessary to survive the next natural disaster."
[Yang Liu Yiyi]: "This kind of joint investment and living together really tests the trust between players, including issues such as how to get along with each other. If it is not handled well, living together will be a double-edged sword."
What [Yang Liu Yiyi] said also makes sense. For example, the players in the 001 territory now have basically been together and adjusted for a long time, and most of them are willing to form partnerships.
The mutual trust between them is quite strong and solid, and the trust developed after experiencing many solar term disasters together is quite strong and solid.
It will also make players more willing to buy houses together on their own initiative, and they will get along more harmoniously.
If the same situation occurs in other game areas, there is no guarantee that there will be so many gamers who trust each other in those territories.
If they are not friends who trust each other enough to trust each other, once a situation involving interests is involved, the players will still need to live under the same roof. If any conflicts arise afterwards, it may end in a tragic outcome of one side killing the other.
There are also many players who seem to get along well with each other on the surface, but when they really live together, their different living habits will naturally lead to inevitable friction.
The players who have survived in the game to this day may not be as tolerant and forgiving as the roommates on Blue Star. To use the words of [Su Zhao], the players now truly have the ability to take people's lives at any time.
Not every game zone has so many players who maintain their original intentions. From those she has seen, when a quarrel breaks out, it is not certain who will give in to whom. If they encounter something that is difficult to reconcile or tolerate, a fight to the death is common.
"Struggling to survive in a survival game that is covered up is a great test for the spirit. Just being alive is tiring enough, so naturally one cannot accept such unpleasant things happening in front of them."
Everyone has some understanding of this situation. Players who have followed Shu Lingyi all the way may not have seen it, but they will understand it after listening to a few more examples explained by everyone.
"I knew this game had sinister intentions!" Yue Shengliang was indignant and clenched her fists.
Sanqi rolled her eyes at Yue Shengliang who was always so excited and sighed, "But what can you do? We can only put up with it for now. At least we have been living in harmony for so long."
Qin Yue did share some experience. She had led younger brothers and sisters and served as a lord before, so she knew how most people could avoid such problems: "Players who are willing to invest together should also tell each other about their living habits and some of the things they mind in advance, so that it won't be so painful to get along with each other."
"If there is a problem, make three rules first, explain your own habits and bottom line first. If they can accept it, that's the best. If they can't accept it, see if it can be solved. If they can't survive and don't want to solve it, then find someone else."
Shu Lingyi agreed deeply: "Yes, there is no need to embarrass each other."
Now that things have come to this, we should try our best to avoid these problems, or find ways to solve these possible problems so that this matter can have a better ending.
As other players who upgraded their houses verified this, the gaming area became bustling again, and many players began to contact each other.
First find a suitable and trustworthy player to consider the matter of the two-entry courtyard house.
The first to choose to invest together were the three siblings of the Qin family. Qin Yue took the lead and quickly gathered enough materials in the following few days. The three of them needed to mortgage their respective foundations together to purchase the property.
In this way, the new second-entry courtyard will allocate east and west wing rooms to the other two people, where there will be many rooms, with the same facilities as the main rooms in the original first-entry courtyard of the two players.
In the next few days, the territory returned to its normal state. With the wind guide fences and snow barrier fences, the impact of wind and snow was slightly reduced.
Various mineral veins and forests have been refreshed in the past few days, and many life players have become busy.
Considering the need to finish digging and refresh as soon as possible, Su Ranran has led everyone to get busy in the past two days. It would be best if all the digging could be completed within two days.
A few days passed and it was January 8th.
[January 8, 3103, 09:01, light snow, today's temperature is -17°, there are gusty winds, thunder and heavy snow, beware of frostbite, the wind and snow are dazzling, please be careful when traveling to avoid being struck by lightning, some winter monsters will appear on the snow. The snow depth is 14mm, some areas are difficult to pass and need to be shoveled. ]
Shu Ling saw this when he woke up in the morning and frowned: Is it possible that thunder and heavy snow can happen at the same time?
Under normal circumstances, thunder is a normal phenomenon in summer, but it also occurs in spring, and the meaning of spring thunder is often more pleasant.
However, thunder in winter is a bit too rare and seems too unbelievable.
[Zi Bu Yu]: "It snowed and thundered in winter. I have never heard of such a situation in my life."
[Cang Sheng Taegeuk]: "I have heard from my aunt that if there is thunder and snow, there will be a drought of 180 years next year!"
[Silver who loves to read novels]: "What does that mean?"
[Dean Zhu who loves to eat soy milk fish]: "This phenomenon is indeed rare, because it is very rare. In some areas, there is also a popular proverb like the one above, that thunder and snow will greatly reduce the crop yield in the second year, and even cause a severe drought or flood, resulting in nine out of ten places being empty and full of thieves."
[Brother Yang who loves purple sweet potato toast]: "Then we will also encounter bad luck!"
[Cang Sheng Taegeuk]: "If I don't do this, I will still encounter bad luck. It just means that this solar term is entering a truly dangerous period."
【Zi Bu Yu】: "That's normal. It's already the thirteenth day of Xiao Xue, the severity of the disaster should have doubled long ago."
[Yiling]: "The snowfall amount is updated every four days, but today's snow depth has become 14mm. According to the previous rules, today should be 13mm."
[Zi Bu Yu]: "Increased by 0.2mm! The superposition value of snow thickness has really been changed!"
Not only was she surprised, the other players were also surprised. The weather forecast and other hints told everyone that the next thing would be unusual and they needed to be extremely careful to deal with it.
[Time Passes]: "Early this morning, even the wear and tear on the house was much more severe than in the past few days."
[Yan Xingchen]: "Fortunately, I have called on others to help me, and I will be able to upgrade the day after tomorrow at the latest!"
The materials on hand are almost gone, most of them have been collected, and the only thing left is the glazed gold bricks, I just need to buy a batch today!
But buying things in a rush requires a lot of luck, and none of the three of them could get the 200 glazed gold bricks.
What could Yan Xingchen do? She was just an unlucky child who couldn't buy the glazed gold bricks.
[Tian Mozi]: "Did you see that? The weather forecast also said that winter monsters appeared! Before, they said they were in hibernation."
[Silver who loves to read novels]: "I don't know what kind of monsters there will be..."
[Yi Ling]: "I don't know for now. Logically speaking, it was noted earlier that the monsters were hibernating, and there has indeed been no further mention of hibernation in the past two days, so it is normal for monsters to appear."
[Brother Yang who loves purple sweet potato toast]: "Besides, with the equipment we have, it's not easy to deal with monsters!"
It's not a monster tide, so I don't think there will be monsters above level nine.
Everyone thought so in their hearts, no one was worried, and some even felt excited that they would gain more resources by killing these monsters.
Even Shu Lingyi had such thoughts in his mind, but they were quickly ruthlessly shattered by Xiao Ai.
[This winter monster is a special edition limited to this solar term, and it is very difficult to deal with. You are faced with a dilemma: it is not right to kill it, and it is not right not to kill it.]
[Host, you should be happy now, or you won't be happy later. ]
Shu Lingyi was a little confused. Xiao Ai's sarcasm and the look of someone waiting to watch a good show were already overflowing from between the lines.
But isn't it just a monster? How difficult can it be to handle or deal with?
Winter Monster... Solar term limited edition? !
"It sounds very abnormal. It can't be a monster above level 10, right?"
Shu Lingyi's imagination was frantically thinking that the monster was of a very high level and extremely difficult to deal with.
If these are all level nine monsters corresponding to winter, and they have their own buffs when fighting outside, then the players will really be at a disadvantage.
However, the Thunderbolt Cannon is still under research. A few days ago, Xin Jing said that a finished product will be available soon. So there will be nothing to be afraid of then.
In other words, these monsters are special - they need special tools to be killed.
Shu Ling thought of the ice-breaking arrow for a moment. This kind of arrow was specially used for breaking ice and it was very likely to appear on monsters.
[You will know after you encounter them. Only when you face these monsters can you know what I mean.]
Seeing that Xiao Ai couldn't say much, Shu Lingyi had no other choice.
Anyway, she will go out to dig for treasure chests after breakfast. If she encounters the monster, she will deal with it one by one. In this way, she will know what secrets are hidden behind this monster.
"It doesn't matter at all. I can break all laws with my own strength. I will see how difficult it is to deal with you later."
Ice-breaking arrows are much more troublesome than ice-breaking drills. Shu Lingyi only has an ice-breaking drill that he just made yesterday, and it's a half-baked one at that.
The stats are pretty good, but the durability is low, so she needs to improve it later.
However, before she could finish her words, there was a loud bang in the sky, and a purple thunder exploded between the white sky and earth.
It fell rapidly from the clouds in the sky and directly struck the inside of a mountain range.
The news on the public screen paused for a moment, and then became "lively" again.
[Yan Xingchen]: "Oh my god, this thunder scared me to death!"
[Yu Wei Meng Han]: "Don't say you were scared to death, it almost struck my soul away. I was struck by lightning for no reason and I don't even know why."
[Yu Wei Meng Han]: "When the thunder struck, my whole body went numb, but luckily I only lost some blood, so the problem is not serious..."
The next second, the man suddenly felt terribly cold as the wind blew. Even though his body was tightly wrapped in clothes, he still felt terribly cold!
[Luo Yi who loves potato sauce soup]: "Big brother upstairs, are you really okay?"
[Zi Bu Yu]: "You didn't do anything immoral, right? Otherwise, why was you struck by lightning? Or did you make some random promises?"
[Yu Wei Meng Han]: "Bullshit! How could I do such a thing? No, after being struck by lightning, my health bar has been decreasing. I am so cold that I can hardly walk..."
[Yu Wei Menghan]: "Help..."
When everyone saw the call for help from [Yu Wei Menghan] on the public screen, they stopped joking and started asking him to send out his location so that there could be any players nearby who could come and rescue him.
[Luo Yi who loves potato sauce soup]: "I think I saw the lightning just now. Wait for me, I will save you now."
Luo Yi recalled that she was about to go out, but was frightened by the thunder and shrank back.
The lightning fell not far from her house. When she saw the lightning falling from the sky, it looked thin from a distance, but it became a very thick lightning at this distance!
Combined with the rumbling thunder, Luo Yi was really frightened. Thinking back on it now, he can't help but shudder all over.
The feeling of the mighty power of heaven and the insignificance of human beings emerged from the depths of my soul.
[Zi Bu Yu]: "Go quickly, it seems that there is no thunder for the time being..."
Sometimes you just can't put flags randomly. As soon as she finished speaking, another bolt of lightning fell, but it was located in the northwest direction of the game area.
Luo Yi decided to go out and take a look. The player hadn't spoken on the public screen. Could he have died in an accident? !
She put on her protective gear and started to go out, while the other players began to look for what props they had available during the period when one of the natural disasters during the summer season was a thunderstorm.
In fact, there was nothing useful. The insulating props at that time were mainly used on houses. As for the clothes on the body, if you wear them now, you will probably be frozen to death by the weather.
In just ten minutes, several bolts of lightning struck one after another, but they were scattered all over the game area, so not many players were affected.
But there are always unlucky players.
【xun】: "I... was struck by lightning. I was shoveling snow and didn't notice the pit below. I fell and it was terrible. The next second, I was struck by lightning."
[Three points]: "It's so tragic. I came out with him and he fell down. Just when I was about to help him up, the thunder struck me."
【Qi Dancing Qingying】: "So what are his symptoms now?"
【Three points】: "It doesn't look serious at the moment, and it doesn't seem life-threatening..."
[Luo Yi who loves potato sauce soup]: "It will get serious soon. When I rushed to Yu Wei, he was already lying in the snow like a large ice block."
[Luo Yi who loves potato sauce soup]: "If I hadn't rescued him in time and given him a dose of medicinal soup, he would have died by now."
