Chapter 868: A Night of Spring
When Shu Ling woke up early in the morning, he didn't even have time to take the Quhan Pill. The first thing he did was to repair the protective shield whose health was less than 50%, and then he repaired the courtyard.
After replying to the status, I went back to look at the messages on the public screen and saw that everyone was already discussing this.
【Zi Bu Yu】: "Tell them that they didn't listen to the teacher at that time. Just say that they didn't listen to the old man's advice. It's not good enough that they suffered a loss in front of them. They even lost their lives."
[Zi Bu Yu] When he started mocking, there was no room for maneuver. It was a pity that those people were already dead and could not see everyone mocking him.
Everyone agreed with what Zi Bu Yu said, but no one said anything more extreme. They still felt sorry for the deceased.
Although most of the players in Game Area 5 gave them a bad impression, they did not want so many people to die overnight.
A total of three or four thousand people were wiped out. This tragedy still makes countless players feel cold in their hearts.
[Suspicion] District 9: "There will probably be another wave of hail explosions tonight. We should try to keep the hail as small and thin as possible and make sure it does not form an avalanche."
【Ziboyu】District 9: "Okay, I'll listen to the teacher."
[Lying Bug] District 12: "I don't dare to disobey this now. I'm scared! Otherwise I'll die in the explosion in the middle of the night when I fall asleep."
With the good example set by the players in Zone 5, other players just felt extremely fortunate that they listened to [Doubt].
Otherwise, you will be the one who is wiped out.
[Dean Zhu who loves to eat soy milk fish] District 9: "I don't know what the weather will be like tomorrow. This is the fifth day. The hail and snow should be over by tomorrow."
[Time Passes] District 9: “Who knows? There are only 10 days left. I feel like I’m about to get through this!”
【Shao Qing will not let you down】District 9: “That’s right! The countdown to the Great Cold has begun!”
Many players expressed the same sentiment. Now, after 20 days, the players have gradually become more familiar with the game.
The number of survivors in many game areas is now less than 3,000, and the information sent by the players in Game Area 9 is even more irrelevant.
【Xin Jing】9th District: "I got some inspiration from this hailstorm. I think I can imitate the setting of hailstorm to strengthen my thunder cannon - but it's not quite there yet."
She, Zhong Qingwei and other weapon masters have not found a way to perfectly combine Gengjin Stone and shotgun snow water.
Other weapons are better. It is said that soaking them in snow water can double their durability and sharpness.
At the same time, it improves the weapons' resistance to frost damage in this weather.
But her Thunderbolt Cannon can't be used like this!
【So Redundant】: "I also think this shotgun snow water can be studied further. Judging from the power of the explosion last night, I don't think its effectiveness has been maximized yet."
[Yi Ling]: "According to the numerical growth given before, it does feel like the combination of Gengjin Stone and this Shotgun Snow Water can have even greater room for development."
[Xin Jing]: "It's just that this trick is hard to find. You have to explore and experiment one by one."
【Dancing Shadows】Zone 9: "The production of the Nine Tribute Glue has also entered the final stage, and the finished product will be available soon."
Now it is like every once in a while, so there will be some good news. The Nine Tribute Glue has reached the final stage, and many players are looking forward to it.
[Pudding] Area 6: "Please prepare one for me when the time comes! Duoduo really needs it!"
For him, he saw the hope of his wife's recovery shining brightly, so how could he not be impatient!
Some people think that the future is bright and everyone will definitely be able to complete the game.
Some people are worried and concerned about the unknown tomorrow.
[Duzhou] District 16: "Ah, even this hailstorm is already so outrageous. I wonder what the hell will happen tomorrow. I wonder if I can still live a good life."
【Bai Moxi】District 9: "Don't think too much. You will only get more tired and not more relaxed in the future. There is no easy life in this game, especially at a critical moment like this."
[Mushroom] District 9: "I can see the subsequent fate. I feel so tired, but I think it's good to be alive. Besides the risk of life, it seems to be more comfortable than the experience on Blue Planet at first glance."
[Yue Shengliang who loves sweet-scented osmanthus fish] District 9: "That's not the case. To be honest, if it weren't for this survival game, we might never be able to afford to live in such a magnificent courtyard."
[Time Passes] District 9: "Not only that, the scenery we have seen this year would require a lot of money and time to travel to see on Blue Planet."
Today is the fifth day of the Great Cold, which should also be the last day of the hail and snow explosion period.
It turned out that there were thick clouds in the sky, making the winter, which already had little sunshine, even more gloomy and depressing.
Unexpectedly, after noon today, around 2 o'clock, the sun came out for the first time in history!
The clouds seemed to be dispersed by the scorching sun, and the whole earth was filled with vitality and warmth.
But no one expected that the sleet would explode even more violently after the sun came out!
However, many players were shoveling hail outside, enjoying the warmth of the sun, when the next second the hail touched them and the wind blew, exploding instantly and blowing people away.
The player was still stunned, feeling dazed as he flew out.
What's more terrifying is that he was completely unprepared and was hit by a lot of hail and snow that exploded one after another, and his equipment was not good enough.
Faced with such a sudden incident, his health bar began to decrease rapidly, and the durability of his equipment also continued to drop.
He was forced to take out his shield and armor, take some medicine to restore his blood, and then think of a way to get back to his courtyard as soon as possible.
This kind of accident is not uncommon. Probably nearly a thousand players died in each of our game areas because of this. The number of deaths in Game Area 9 in [001 Territory] is slightly less.
But five hundred people died.
The explosion is quite powerful, but the most important thing is that it happens suddenly. If the player is not prepared, he will easily be killed by the continuous explosions.
As long as you have sufficient equipment, quick reactions, give yourself some water, and have a bit of luck getting home in time, basically nothing will go wrong.
Especially in the territory, although the hail explosion is powerful, the amount of hail is small and it is difficult to explode.
But what no one expected was that after the lunch break, there was another big one in the evening!
Compared to the explosion at noon when the sun is shining brightly, this one in the evening is even more magnificent and beautiful.
After all, facing the afterglow of the setting sun, the brilliant sunset glow covers the entire sky.
The clouds are as warm and vigorous as fire, revealing a resolute beauty, like the final expression of life.
At this time, all the hail and snow exploded uncontrollably, mixed with the whistling sound of the cold wind, creating the ultimate art of explosion.
The last vitality of the entire world was ignited, and all players in the territory or courtyard could see it when looking into the distance and into the sky.
【梓卟语】District 9: “This explosion is totally unreasonable!”
[Suspicion] District 9: "It really matches the weather forecast. It says it is flammable and explosive."
[The Sorrowful Demon] District 9: "It's beautiful, it's really beautiful. It's so beautiful that the sun finally came out today and it exploded. It's better not to have the sun! It's so beautiful!"
After finally escaping back to the courtyard, everyone was very tired and started complaining one after another.
Now players in several districts are also beginning to face the final food crisis, because the stored food is almost limited.
Fortunately, Shu Lingyi had taught them how to deal with it before, so there was a little crisis, but not much.
At least I could eat steamed corn bread with sauerkraut and two slices of bacon.
It's edible if you make do with it. You can also buy a bowl of spicy soup or something like that from Shu Lingyi. It will warm your whole body and make you feel comfortable.
As for Shu Lingyi, he hasn't reached the point where he needs to eat steamed buns yet. He can still enjoy delicious clear soup noodles. Adding a fried egg is enough to make the soup delicious.
[Silver who loves to read novels] District 9: "This clear soup noodles is absolutely amazing. It's very filling, tastes good and you can eat meat. It makes me feel full of energy!"
[Cang Sheng Taege] District 9: "Well... this hail season is about to end. After eating, take a rest for a while, take the medicine, wash up, and then get ready for bed."
【Xin Jing】District 9: “Haha, my Thunderbolt Cannon is finally going to make some progress! I think I figured out how to blend these two materials together peacefully!”
Xin Jing's words also attracted the attention of many players on the public screen, and everyone was happy about it.
After all, everyone knows the power of the thunder bomb. If it can be further improved, it will be a super invincible explosive weapon!
【Xin Jing】9th District: "This shotgun snow water probably needs a certain degree of high temperature stimulation, yes... it needs heat. Pure freezing will reduce the activity of the shotgun snow water, making it impossible to completely merge with other things, and even affect the explosive power of this snow water."
Zhong Qingwei and Shu Lingyi had dinner together tonight. It was just in the evening when the hail and snow explosion scene ended.
After all, the two of them were together, so Zhong Qingwei decided to stay for a while, thinking that if the temperature got colder at night and the hail explosions were not so severe, he would return to his house.
It is inevitable that two people will have some couple habits. As long as they are together, they will be affectionate and whisper to each other.
After dinner, Zhong Qingwei saw the words of [Xin Ling], and then set up a tool bench in the courtyard of Shulingyi and began to study the feasibility of this.
He was studying the bow and arrow at the moment, tinkering with it beside him. Shu Lingyi didn't understand much about this, so he just listened quietly.
"Comrade Xin Jing's words do make sense. I have tried it out and it works. But if it is put into the Thunderbolt Cannon, more experiments and tests may be needed. After all, cannonballs are different from our cold weapons."
"But the bow and arrow are much simpler—"
So Shu Lingyi received his latest version of the ice-breaking arrow.
On the basis of the ice-breaking arrow, the bow and arrow have stronger penetration and lethality. Even if a fire crystal is added, the arrow can be turned into an explosive "ice-breaking arrow".
It will explode within five seconds after being hit by an arrow. The range is about five to ten meters and the damage will be higher the closer you are to it.
Shu Lingyi was very excited after seeing it. With this skill, Shu Lingyi no longer had to worry about the bow and arrow only being a single target when he could not trigger the skill.
"This bow is absolutely perfect! Comrade Zhong, you are so amazing!"
Shu Lingyi was very happy and satisfied with his new weapon. He took the bow and arrow, looked at it repeatedly in his hand, and stroked it gently several times, but still felt unsatisfied.
But she soon put away the bow and arrow, happily hugged Zhong Qingwei, and put her arms around his neck.
Then she pecked Zhong Qingwei's lips twice, like a dragonfly touching the water, and then said with a smile: "This is a reward for you!"
But it was obvious that just two kisses didn't seem to satisfy Zhong Qingwei.
He didn't dare to do anything rash just now, so he could only stare at Shu Lingyi, like a dog longing for a reward from his beloved.
Shu Lingyi felt that he really couldn't stand the temptation of this look, so he hugged his neck more directly.
Zhong Qingwei cooperated and picked up Shu Lingyi, so Shu Lingyi lowered his head and deepened the kiss with him.
After a while, the two of them separated from their embrace and lay down on the rocking chair together, with Shu Lingyi sitting in his arms.
"Comrade Yi Yi, if the game ends and we return to Blue Planet, will you still be with me?"
"Why do you ask such a strange question?"
"Being with you means being with you. Even if we are on a blue planet, I still like you! Could it be that you will not be the same person when you return to the blue planet?"
Shu Lingyi answered with a series of questions, which made Zhong Qingwei at a loss for what to do and started to explain.
"No, I was thinking of Xiao Lu and Sister Wenwen. If they were on Blue Star, we probably wouldn't have the chance to meet each other. The nature of their work is also very different."
"I'm afraid that we won't be able to see each other again after we return to Blue Star, or that we won't be suitable to be together anymore."
"And after we finish the game, will we still have any memories when we go back? Will we still be able to find each other? Thinking of this, I feel sad that we will have to forget each other."
In fact, many games where characters get to know each other and fall in love do take this into consideration.
I originally thought that I could never go back to Blue Planet, and could only live one day at a time.
When you meet someone whose personality and values are similar to yours, it's not a bad idea to enjoy life while you can.
But it's different now.
But Shu Lingyi has never been a person who hesitates, she started to comfort Zhong Qingwei directly.
"Alright, alright, don't be upset. No matter what, our parents still have some connections. If you want to find me then, won't it be easy?"
"Sister Wenwen could have left some information for Xiao Lu in advance so that they could keep each other informed. If she brought the memory back to Blue Star, it would be easy to find her. But if she really didn't have the memory..."
"This matter is indeed a bit troublesome. If two people forget each other, we don't have the ability to make them remember each other."
Shu Lingyi could only spread her hands and shrug her shoulders. She usually wouldn't think too much about such completely uncertain things. After all, she wouldn't come up with many effective solutions even if she thought about it for a long time.
We will have to wait until we complete the game to find out the details.
What if I'm unlucky and don't make it through the level at all, and my entire army is wiped out?
She cursed herself in her heart for being such a bad mouth and played with Zhong Qingwei's hair:
"But Sister Wenwen and Xiao Lu were grouped together among so many people and in so many game areas. With so many coincidences, I think they are destined to meet each other. No matter what, they will meet again."
Anyway, it's not scientific anymore, so it makes sense for her to explain it using some metaphysics!
"I think so." Zhong Qingwei nodded, but couldn't help but hug Shu Lingyi tighter.
Shu Lingyi suddenly remembered the box of small things that Su Ranran stuffed into her at noon today, and she felt a little conflicted.
Looking at the aggrieved and almost crying big man, Shu Lingyi felt itchy in his heart and was ready to do something...
She buried her face in the crook of Zhong Qingwei's neck with rare tenderness, tilted her head and gently leaned against his ear, her lips almost touching his earlobe.
"Comrade Zhong, let's try something inappropriate for children later..."
Her smile bloomed like a flower, her peach blossom eyes sparkled, and her blink seemed to be able to captivate people's souls.
We are all adults, how could we not understand?
Zhong Qingwei felt a hot current rushing through his head, making him dizzy. His cheeks suddenly turned red like cooked shrimps and were steaming.
Shu Lingyi leaned against him, their bodies pressed tightly together through the fabric, their chests so close that in this quiet night Shu Lingyi could clearly hear his heartbeat getting stronger.
Bang, bang, bang——
Under the teasing of Shu Lingyi, who had learned the true teachings from Su, Zhong Qingwei was quickly tricked into going into bed.
"Isn't this a bad idea? How about we wait until we return to Blue Planet and then... then..."
Zhong Qingwei was still a little hesitant. He felt that it was not a good idea to do such a thing now. He even stuttered when he spoke.
Shu Lingyi, however, seemed much more powerful. He pressed the man down, lowered his eyebrows and looked down at him, with a seductive look: "What's wrong with this? Food and sex are human nature."
After taking off all their clothes, both of them showed their truest sides, sleeping on the same bed, and having skin-to-skin contact for the first time at a distance.
After all, they were young and energetic, and they fought repeatedly for several hours.
During the intermittent sex, the room was filled with beautiful spring scenery and an ambiguous atmosphere.
After an unknown amount of time of making love, the two finally cooled down and lay down on the bed. Looking at the slightly swaying candlelight, they skillfully stretched out a hand and gave each other a thumbs-up.
"powerful."
"The same to you."
So the two of them hugged each other for a while and then went to wash up one after another. Their waists and legs looked like they had been through a big battle.
After I finish washing and come back, it’s almost time to take the Quhan Pills.
After taking the pills, the two were exhausted and lay down on the bed, wrapped in a big quilt and fell asleep in each other's arms.
The next morning, Shu Lingyi slowly opened her eyes amid the sound of light rain outside. This was the first time since she grew up that someone had shared a bed with her, and Shu Lingyi was still a little uncomfortable with it.
But then she reached out and touched Zhong Qingwei's broad shoulders, narrow waist, and well-defined abdominal muscles.
After she moved like this, Zhong Qingwei also woke up. Feeling Shu Lingyi's hand igniting his body, he grabbed Shu Lingyi's "dirty hands".
Hoarse voice: "Don't move, wait a minute..."
Unexpectedly, Shu Ling suddenly became frightened and hugged Zhong Qingwei to his chest and buried him in his arms: "It's so early in the morning, can't you have some fun?"
It was probably another exciting battle, with scenes in the room full of those not suitable for children.
However, the two did not dare to go too far. After all, they still had to take medicine and be punished, so they had to restrain themselves a little.
After applying the medicine, I went to wash up and take a medicinal bath before having breakfast together. At this time, I ran into Su Ranran who came to visit me specially.
The two of them exchanged glances, and Su Ranran immediately knew that her little sister had finished eating. She laughed so hard that she couldn't stop.
After Shu Lingyi and Su Ranran's efforts, he finally focused on the weather forecast.
"It's freezing rain today. This rain is unusual."
Su Ranran came over wearing a super raincoat. Shu Ling remembered that when she was standing at the door, the rain water that was shaken off her raincoat would instantly condense into ice beads.
"This rain is really hard to break. My super raincoat has lost more than 50 durability points in just this short time!"
Su Ranran pointed exaggeratedly at the raincoat she had just taken off.
[March 1, 3103, 8:42, severe cold, today's lowest temperature is -93°, force 6 gale, strong cold wave is coming, freezing rain warning, water turns into ice, frost everywhere, please be careful, influenza aggravates the disease risk, frost damage crisis is serious. ]
"I even took a special look outside. Fortunately, the trees here are now leafless. Most of them have withered away completely."
“It’s just that our buildings and houses are more susceptible to durability issues due to freezing rain.”
In just one night, the entire ground was covered with a thick layer of frost, which was even thicker and harder than before.
This is especially true in the courtyards, where rime solidifies on countless trees and buildings, intensifying the severity of the frost damage.
"The ice drill should be able to get rid of these ice layers, as long as we strike first." Shu Ling frowned.
Su Ranran shook her head. "You didn't see the news on the public screen. There is a layer of hail and snow under the ice in some places on the ground. Although it has stopped snowing now, the hail and snow that was not completely cleared away in the last three or four hours last night is frozen in the ice."
"There are some brave players who think the same as you."
Shu Ling and the other two checked the public screen and saw a player bravely say about ten minutes ago: "I don't know if I will try it outside."
【梓卟语】9th District: "So how is the brother in front? There is no response at this point. Did something happen to the brother?"
Shu Ling scrolled down for a long time but didn't see anyone respond, and he couldn't help but feel the same worry.
"Isn't something really wrong?"
Su Ranran shook her head and said with a smile: "With the defense value of our equipment, there will be no problem. Even if it was blown up, the injuries are indeed quite serious."
