Chapter 114 Desert Survival Day 13 (2) Back to Adventure Again…
Logically speaking, the last expedition site had been destroyed by Yu Miaomiao triggering a hidden mechanism, so this time the expedition site should have reappeared or something else.
But the scenes and monsters here are exactly the same as last time, it's just a copy...
Therefore, the adventure location corresponding to each adventure card has a fixed number as Huabie thinks. As long as the internal numbers are consistent, the levels, monsters and roads inside are exactly the same.
It was indeed set by the program. For Miaomiao, it was really a good thing.
Since everything is the same, she can focus on dealing with problems after she leaves.
This time she would have to stay for at least five hours. If nothing unexpected happened, the longer she stayed, the deeper she would explore, and the higher the progress in the strategy she would get, the better.
When she first entered the expedition area, which was the safest time, she looked to see if she could buy stone powder in the world.
She didn't know how much of the three-times-large wooden house would be left when she returned, but the brick foundation should still be there. Even if it wasn't, she had already built an ordinary small wooden house in her backpack, so that when she returned to the base, she would have a place to stay and avoid monsters.
There were very few places in the world selling stone powder. After searching and asking around, she bought almost everything she could. She exchanged 9 screws and 1 iron ingot for 87 stone powders. She still needed 1,353 pieces to make two brick walls.
Searching, private chatting, bargaining, she just stood there at the entrance of the expedition site and wasted more than 10 minutes.
She couldn't continue to buy all the stone powder, whether it was out of stock in the market or it took too long, so she had to find someone to help her with the OEM.
Just as she opened the three-person group chat, her calf was hit hard by a solid object. When she bent down to rub it, Yu Miaomiao saw the gray-black hamster again.
The direction it ran in and the way it drilled into the bushes were exactly the same as when it first came in.
Even these small details were the same as last time, so she felt more at ease handling things here. She could walk slower on the road, collecting and sending messages as she went, without having to search hard.
Yesterday she asked Hua Bie Le, using an umbrella to block the light to avoid the perception of active monsters is still useful. Perhaps this is not a system bug, but a method that survivors can use normally, so she asked someone to customize a new lightweight parasol.
"Is Pipi here? Good morning, everyone! We've had another great day today!"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: You got up a little late today, did something unexpected happen?"
I don’t know if they will encounter the same situation as me.
"Is Pipi here? No, the sun is shining, perfect for exercise. I got a Seven Wound Fist cheat book from a monster last night. Using it unlocks a hidden system feature, just like in martial arts novels. After completing a chapter, you get a small bonus to your personal stats. It's really cool. I got up early and practiced like crazy for a while."
To be honest, after Yu Miaomiao got the secret book, she practiced it alone because she couldn't share pictures or describe the turtle breathing techniques. But she didn't expect that Api told her immediately after getting it.
"Meow Meow: That's great! Congratulations! Didn't you get a sandstorm there?"
She really wanted to empathize with Api, but the current situation had not been resolved.
"Pangpang: Good morning, Api's luck has changed. Before, he was clamoring to be the last one to get the resource search function, but now he's the first one to get a rare item."
Hearing Lulu say this, Yu Miaomiao felt a little embarrassed and typed a line of words in the chat box.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: To be honest, I also learned a secret technique a few days ago called Turtle Breathing Technique. It's not really useful in combat, but it allows you to use some strange postures and auras to reduce the monster's perception."
After walking a short distance on the branch road, she saw the first treasure chest guardian monster. She stopped and quickly explained her troubles.
"Meow Meow isn't short of water: I've had a sandstorm here for five hours right after dawn, and my house has already been blown a hole in it by the sandstorm. There's already a small sandstorm inside. I don't dare stay any longer, and I've already arrived at the exploration site. If there aren't any sandstorms over there, could you help me grind down the rocks with my crusher? I'll pay you for the work, and I want to gather materials for brick construction. I don't know what the situation will be like when I return, and with the way the sandstorm is going today, if my house can't hold up, I'll have nowhere to stay."
During the use of the crusher, no additional manual work is required. All that is needed is to put in stones and take out the powder when outputting. However, every time a sandstorm comes, items need to be removed in time, so it is an extra trouble for others. But she has no choice now and can only ask the two of them for help.
"Pangpang: Of course you can! I didn't know sandstorms could destroy houses. The sandstorms here last the shortest. Sister Miaomiao, give it to me first and I'll help you grind it. It's effortless and there's no labor fee."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: After grinding 10 portions, can you take 1 portion? That way I can feel at ease asking you for help."
Of course they could help each other for free, but Yu Miaomiao always felt that judging by the weather conditions where she was, she probably wouldn't have much time to see the sun, and she might get into trouble with them in the future.
"Is Pipi here? Wow, I was just about to say, Sister Miaomiao, how lucky you are to always be the first to get the things. It seems there is a price to pay. It's hard to imagine how strong the wind is that can blow the house apart. Sister Miaomiao, you didn't get blown up into the sky, did you?"
"Is Pipi here? Give me the crusher. Take 1 out of every 100 stone powders. Otherwise, we'd be embarrassed to help you since we didn't really put in much effort."
Yu Miaomiao quickly synthesized another 'crusher' in the system synthesis guide.
"Meow Meow isn't short of water: I wasn't blown up into the air. I was sent to the exploration area shortly after the wooden house was broken down. Then do as Api said. I'll trouble you with the crusher. Please also pay attention to safety. It's best to build the brick wall as soon as possible. I have a feeling the sandstorm will only get stronger. It's just a matter of who gets there first."
In the expedition zone, the construction hammer will still operate in the air, but the items will automatically go into her inventory.
[Successfully trigger the lucky trait, synthesize crusher*2]
To be honest, it's just like what Api said, she is indeed lucky and has the lucky trait, which allows her to achieve twice the result with half the effort. However, behind this trait, she will gain an invisible strength to survive in the apocalypse.
After the transaction was completed, there was still a crusher. In order to complete the production of all the brick walls today, she decided to trouble one more person - Hua Bie.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Are you there? Are you free now?"
Yu Miaomiao discovered that the two words "Are you there?" were actually a good start.
"Hanabetsu: Yes, and it's a bit boring. Is there anything interesting?"
Well, asking him to grind powder should not be an interesting thing, but she only has three friends she trusts, and the other one is Ziren. When she saw the friend list, she thought of Hua Bie.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: My wooden house was breached by a sandstorm, so I had no choice but to flee to the expedition zone. I guess without brick walls, I can't stay at my base anymore. Could you please help me crush the stone powder when the sun is out?"
After Yu Miaomiao sent the message, the other party did not reply immediately. She decided to move on. If he still did not reply after she killed the bloody ostrich, she would go find Ziren.
“Ding ding.”
Just after picking up the fixed cloth bag, I received a new message.
"Yingying Monster: Miss Meow Meow! Are you still mad at me? I really didn't mean to bother you last night. I went to the exploration area out of spite, but I got stuck at 2%. I asked Huabie, but he didn't know, so I just thought of asking you. I'll give you some goggles and a [Zorber Ball] that can save your life in a sandstorm. Can we apologize and be friends? "
Phew.
Did Yu Miaomiao suddenly find this "嘤嘤怪" a little weirdly cute? Apologize and add a friend?
"Meow Meow is not short of water: You said the zorb ball can save your life?"
"Yingying Monster: Yes, I was also walking downhill, thinking of getting into a zorb ball to save trouble, but ended up rolling straight into the eye of a sandstorm. Besides feeling dizzy from spinning around in circles, nothing seemed to happen. However, after each rotation, the zorb ball's durability drops by 50 points, and I only have 50 points left. If you don't mind, I'll trade it to you."
The description of the zorb ball doesn't mention being able to withstand wind and sand, but it does say, "It allows you to roll safely and freely in any smooth environment."
The attributes do mention "100,000 points of defense against non-human attacks."
Seeing that the value was 100 times lower than that of the planting box, she did not take it seriously. She did not expect that it could remain intact in the sandstorm.
However, this value should also depend on the size of the sandstorm. If it is too big, it may still be broken, just like your own wooden house.
But no matter what, this value may still be enough to be used in the sandstorms at the beginning of the desert apocalypse.
"Meow Meow: Thank you for sharing this useful information. You can keep the zorb. I also got one, but I don't need it. I really need the goggles. Do you want to trade them for information about the exploration area?"
At this time, Yu Miaomiao had already walked in front of the ostrich. She turned off the message sound and concentrated on dealing with the monster in front of her.
When the ostrich died, she carefully looked at the positions of the arrows remaining in its body and recorded them one by one on linen cloth so that she could shoot them the same way the next time she attacked.
He took out a crossbow and shot three arrows at the ostrich that was still resting in front of him.
Every arrow that was fired made a sound of cutting through the air, with a force so great that she herself could not imagine it.
After the first shot startled the ostrich, she shot the second one. The ostrich had already started to fall to the ground with blood splattering, but she still fired the third one.
Every shot hit the spot she aimed at. Her archery skills have really improved. It was no accident that she shot the mini version of the glowing ice thorn bird last night.
Now she was basically certain that it was the effect of the increased wisdom value. After all, using a crossbow also had a basic wisdom value requirement. If this value was too low, all the arrows shot would probably miss.
Open the treasure chest.
[Failed to trigger the Lucky trait. Expedition gift pack: Screw*1, Iron Ingot*1, Copper Ingot*1, Wood*1, Poison Arrow*1, Linen*1, has been stored in the system warehouse.]
Compared to what I got the first time, it was really a failed gift package.
On the way back, she clicked on the new message.
"Yingying Monster: I don't plan to go to the exploration zone anymore. It's not suitable for me. I plan to use my perspective to do something big. Can I use these goggles as a token of my confidentiality and apology for my previous rudeness?"
Of course she could. She certainly wouldn't go around talking about other people's life-saving abilities in front of others for no reason. However, she didn't expect that the other party would actually say so directly about the abilities he possessed. She certainly wouldn't tell others about her lucky traits casually.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Is that all?"
Yu Miaomiao was worried that she might have other purposes, but the goggles were indeed very useful. Ziren said that this thing could effectively block the interference of wind and sand.
Yu Miaomiao still remembers that his word was not "protect the eyes" or "block the sand", but "shield", which means that you can see things clearly under any wind and sand conditions.
"Yingyingguai: Yeah, the apocalypse is so scary. Besides Huabie-geezer, I don't know anyone in real life, so whoever he trusts, I trust. Just don't tell anyone else about my special ability (except for the beautiful girl warrior, hehe, she's my new best friend). I haven't interacted with many people before, so I rashly approached you and said some strange things. I won't do that again. If possible, I'd also like to be friends with Miaomiao (not the friend-add-alone kind)."
