Large raindrops pattered against the nebula.
The rain outside poured down like a floodgate had been opened, splashing countless water droplets on the ground.
Originally, when Shen Zhiyi was on the nebula and looking out at the stars, he could clearly see the distant stars.
But now it's completely gone.
Everywhere you look, there are lines formed by falling raindrops, and white mist rising from the rain.
Shen Zhiyi stood at the door of the room, holding a plastic bucket to collect the water flowing down from the thin bamboo.
After filling a bucket, Shen Zhiyi took it to the water processor, poured it in, and placed it at the water processor's outlet.
It takes 20 minutes to filter five pounds of water. I wonder how long this rain will last. I hope it will rain until she fills the containers she made today.
Shen Zhiyi began to dream.
The rain outside seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. Shen Zhiyi felt that this was no longer just a torrential downpour, but an extremely torrential downpour.
It felt like it was going to rain down all the rain on the planet.
With this amount of rainfall, if it were placed in a basin desert on Earth, it would probably dry up and turn into an oasis.
Shen Zhiyi replaced the plastic bucket with another one. Before the three plastic buckets were full, she quickly opened the small group chat on the panel and asked about the current situation of the two people.
She pointed to a star and asked, "Are you two doing okay now?"
"Don't worry, with the little cabin you built for us, everything is safe." Chen Peng was busy storing water at the moment.
However, he did not have a container to store water, so he used a wooden box to store it.
The dimensions of the wooden crates made from the blueprints are fixed, so they cannot hold more water.
Chen Peng had no choice but to make many wooden boxes at once and place them outside the cabin, then put them in his backpack when the cabin was full.
Sangsang: "Don't worry, I'm fine now, busy storing water."
Sang Sang didn't have a crafting table, so she used the same method as Chen Peng.
Sangsang added a complaint: "I'm not very willing to drink this rainwater directly, I'm afraid it will make me sick."
Chen Peng also said, "It needs to be boiled, otherwise how can we drink it?"
He pointed to a star and said, "Chen Peng, prepare some materials, and I'll make you a water processor."
Shen Zhiyi also sent over the materials needed to make the water source processor.
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll transfer the transaction to you right away."
Chen Peng quickly gathered all the materials for a water source processor.
Shen Zhiyi clicked to create it, but still gave him a reminder.
"It will take an hour and a half to be ready, remember to store plenty of water."
"OK."
Shen Zhiyi opened the chat area again and took a look.
The chat area was in chaos, filled with requests for help.
"Help! Is there any way to stop this rain? I feel like I'm going to be crushed to death by this rain."
"Me too! I can barely keep my eyes open, this rain is so heavy!"
"I can't open my eyes +1, it's so painful, I'm soaked all over, and it's a bit chilly tonight. I feel like I'm going to catch a cold after this downpour ends."
"I have an umbrella, but it's completely unusable. The rain is not only heavy, but the wind is also blowing it away."
"Be careful, everyone! It's windy! And very windy. You must stay in the very center of the nebula and don't get blown off! A friend of mine was blown off and died."
"The system is really crazy. Why is it raining so hard? We don't even have a house. How are we supposed to withstand such a downpour?"
Some people were calling for water storage, but their appeals were drowned out by requests for help.
In the Seventh Star System, not many people own a small cabin.
Some people have only built a small shed for themselves, which has provided some shelter from the rain, but under the impact of this torrential rain, the shed has begun to sway and may collapse at any moment.
But most people were simply enjoying the torrential rain.
Shen Zhiyi sighed. She could help one person, but not everyone.
Faced with this situation, she could only choose not to see it.
Shen Zhiyi had already collected three buckets of rainwater and placed them on one side of the water processor, waiting for them to be filtered.
Shen Zhiyi checked the filtration process and found that the filtered water was almost the same as her mineral water.
But she clearly poured in five pounds of rainwater, so how come only three-quarters of it came out?
Are there that many impurities in the water?
But now was not the time for Shen Zhiyi to think about these things. She poured another bucket of rainwater in and then went to the door to collect more rainwater.
The two extra-large wooden basins outside were already full, and Shen Zhiyi put them into her backpack.
After thinking for a while, he went to the trading area and bought a batch of nails. He then made two wooden basins and placed them in the original spot to continue collecting rainwater.
An hour and a half later, Shen Zhiyi had filtered out four buckets of clean water.
The water processor I made for Sangsang and Chen Peng is finished. I opened the panel and traded it to them.
After thanking Shen Zhiyi, the two also devoted themselves to the work of filtering rainwater.
Shen Zhiyi glanced at the chat area; it seemed even more serious than before.
The number of people in the chat area has also decreased significantly.
【Seventh Galaxy Communication Zone (/)】
"Help! Nobody told me that nebulae can absorb water! I feel my nebula getting heavy and it's starting to sink!"
"I thought it was just my imagination! But it's true!"
"I feel like my nebula has dropped a lot, waaaaah, what should I do?!"
"No, what happens after we descend?"
Upon seeing this, Shen Zhiyi was suddenly startled. Nebulae can absorb water? Does that mean the larger the nebula, the more water it absorbs?
Shen Zhiyi quickly glanced at the nebula beneath her feet, but found nothing wrong.
Her nebula was indeed wet, but she didn't feel any significant increase in weight or descent.
The chat in the discussion area is still going on.
"I don't know, but my friend is gone."
"She told me that her nebula was rapidly descending, and she was terrified. She asked me to help her figure out a solution, but before I could come up with anything, she stopped replying to me!"
"What are we going to do?! If this rain doesn't stop, we're all going to die!"
"No, what's going on with you guys? Why are your nebulae getting heavier? But mine doesn't have the same problem as yours."
"Brother, do you have a cabin or a shed?"
"How do you know?"
"The cabin can slow down the nebula's absorption of water. Although the nebula will still absorb water like a sponge, it won't absorb it as quickly as those nebulae without cabins or shelters."
"Anyway, if there's something on your nebula that can block the rain, the nebula won't absorb water as quickly, preventing it from sinking."
"Holy crap, a savior!"
"Thanks for the reminder, I'll set up a tent right away!"
