This cold wave has lasted for 5 days and is still not over. At first, people didn't pay much attention to it.
As time went on, players with limited resources started to get anxious and frustrated.
"Brothers and sisters, please give me some food. My child hasn't eaten for two meals."
"Luckily, I had a bunch of steamed buns stored up before. Although they don't taste good, at least I don't have to go hungry now."
"Does anyone have candy? I'll trade it for a [green pepper and shredded pork bento box]. My daughter is having a hypoglycemic episode and desperately needs all kinds of sweets!"
"Water! I need water! I haven't had any water all day, my throat is parched!"
"When will this damn cold snap finally end?"
...
yes?
When will the cold wave finally end?
Even though Gu Mian has plenty of supplies and doesn't lack food or drink for the time being, she can't help but worry that the cold wave might last too long and eventually cause a severe shortage of supplies.
Gu Mian was worried when she suddenly heard:
[Ding! Due to the prolonged cold snap, players were unable to obtain survival supplies, resulting in the deaths of a large number of players.]
To increase player survival rates, a limited-time event, "Doomsday Delivery," has been added.
[Doomsday Delivery: The event lasts for 7 days. Each day at 10:00 AM, a doomsday deliveryman will board the raft carrying a large number of boxes of supplies.]
[Delivery successful. The courier will leave the raft, and the player will receive a supply box.]
[Delivery failed. The courier will enter "attack" mode and initiate a 3-hour limited-time attack on the raft.]
[Please note that the Doomsday Deliverymen are rapidly recruiting new employees. Players must do everything in their power to protect their shelter. Once the shelter is breached by the deliverymen, the player will be transformed into a new Doomsday Deliveryman.]
"Hehehe!"
The system announcement had just ended when a hoarse, low growl came from outside.
Gu Mian: "..."
Is this a monster-killing event?
Quickly get dressed, take out your weapon, and open the wooden door.
On the sea, dozens of zombie deliverymen dressed in identical black uniforms were stiffly moving forward step by step.
As if sensing something, the zombies suddenly stopped in their tracks, raised their heads, and sniffed around in the air like wild beasts.
The next second, all the eyeballs without black pupils turned around in unison, and all the zombies waved their arms and charged straight towards the wooden house.
[Zombie Courier: Level 1 Pollutant, Health 70, Attack 6, Speed 3, Defense 5.]
Gu Mian could easily crush one of these trashy characters with a single blow, but the problem is, there's a huge, dark mass of them in front of her...
That's way too many!
Is the system overestimating her? Giving her so many monsters all by herself?
Is this really to deliver supplies, or to turn her into a zombie?
Amidst the commotion, the lead zombie had already rushed onto the raft.
Seeing the zombie's pale face, Gu Mian lashed out with her whip without hesitation.
"Smack!"
With a flash of white light, the zombie was instantly shattered by Gu Mian's whip. With a "bang," the delivery box hanging on its back fell heavily onto the raft.
Hearing the commotion, two robots rushed out of the greenhouse: "Master, do you need help?"
Gu Mian's eyes lit up. She had forgotten about the two guys and immediately said happily, "We need to! Go and take care of those zombie deliverymen!"
Robot 1/2: "Yes, Master."
Although these are two auxiliary robots, they are more than capable of dealing with level-one pollutants.
Two robots charged into the horde of zombies, brandishing their mechanical arms and indiscriminately slaughtering them.
Gu Mian leisurely followed behind with a whip, occasionally patching up any gaps. In less than ten minutes, the group of zombie deliverymen were all dealt with.
They didn't even make it onto the raft; they were all wiped out while still on the sea.
On the sea, cardboard boxes of all sizes were scattered all over the ground.
Before Gu Mian could give any instructions, the two robots squatted down, stacked the cardboard boxes together, and began to move them onto the raft.
Good, good, good. As expected of a robot produced by the system, it can fight zombies and handle chores, saving her a lot of trouble!
After the robot transported the cardboard boxes into the greenhouse, it went back to handling planting matters.
The temperature difference between inside and outside is huge. As soon as Gu Mian stepped into the greenhouse, she was hit by the heat and her forehead instantly broke out in a fine layer of sweat.
Gu Mian quickly took off her cotton-padded coat and hat, and only then did she feel less hot.
The cardboard boxes were neatly stacked in the corner by the robot. Gu Mian walked over, squatted down, and began to happily unpack the packages.
[One half-and-half hot pot]
[Spicy Hot Pot Base *5]
[Tomato hot pot base *5]
[Mushroom Mixture 300g*10]
[A combination of various vegetables, 300g x 10]
[Beef rolls 300g*10]
[Lamb rolls 300g*10]
[Hot pot dipping sauce * 10]
The above supplies will be doubled.
Wuhu~
It's a hot pot set meal!
Gu Mian's eyes sparkled; she could finally enjoy a spicy and numbing hot pot!
God knows, she wanted to cook hot pot on the first day the temperature dropped, but she didn't have enough ingredients or hot pot base, so she had to give up the idea.
And now, she can enjoy a delicious meal!
Gu Mian was clearly not the only happy person; many players who successfully defended the shelter started showing off the large amount of supplies they had obtained in the chat channel.
"I killed 20 zombie deliverymen and got 20 cakes of different flavors. Mom doesn't have to worry about me getting a stomachache anymore!"
"There are two people on my raft, and a total of 40 zombie deliverymen have arrived. Are the zombie deliverymen spawned based on the number of people on the raft?"
