Chapter 3 Desert Survival Day 2 (1) Trading Chicken Wings for Scrap Metal…
[System prompt: All internal test players have arrived in this world]
[Currently, Desert Survival is in Novice Mode. The first three days are a novice protection period. After three days, small wild animals will appear at night. Starting on the tenth day, the survival difficulty will increase from Novice Mode to Normal Mode. Please survive well.]
This system really reminds everyone all the time to live well.

Yu Miaomiao glanced at the chat channel. The number of people online in the world has become 99,764, and the death toll is 236. In other words, there are 100,000 people in this apocalypse.
Obviously everyone received this reminder at the same time. Since it was just a game, many people didn't take it seriously.
Some people even finished all the water and food on the first day and waited to be transferred back to the real world the next day.
After they heard the system's announcement, many people's hearts died and the world was filled with wailing.
More and more people are complaining and anxious. No one knows what a small beast is, and no one can imagine that the novice protection period is so difficult, what will the normal mode be like, not to mention the difficulty that may be increased in the future.
Yu Miaomiao felt that this system was really a scam. It was not explained clearly from the beginning, and even many functions and tasks had to be figured out by oneself.
At this time, a unique voice appeared on the world chat channel. It seemed to be someone who had just arrived not long ago in the afternoon - Yang Haotian.
"Yang Haotian: If the system wanted us dead, it could have just killed us. It's sending me things and providing a platform for exchanging supplies just to give us a chance to survive. Don't give up easily."
What he said was correct, and many people agreed with him. The negative comments in the chat channel gradually decreased.
"Lonely mother: But I still have a six-year-old daughter in the real world. I don't know how she is doing. I want to go back to be with her. If I die, will I be able to go back?"
Many people also have relatives and friends, and one hundred thousand people is not all people in the real world.
"Yingyingguai: How can I possibly go back? When I came here, the real world came with me. The lack of cell phone signal is the best proof. If you die here, you are completely dead."
Everyone has thought of this a long time ago. They thought it was a very realistic VR game, but in addition to feeling real, real things also came along, which means that there is no difference between this and reality at all.
"Yang Haotian: Did you notice when you came here that the prompt you saw was "Apocalypse Game -1," and it also said we were on the beta test server? Are there servers like 2, 3, and 4, just like there are multiple servers in a game?"
At first, Yu Miaomiao also guessed what the number 1 meant. After Yang Haotian’s reminder, this explanation seemed to make a lot of sense.
"Yang Haotian: Since there will be many servers, according to game conventions, there will be server mergers. As beta testers, we have the first move and the initiative. If relatives or friends go to other servers, we will be able to take care of them when they merge with ours."
His words were applauded by the whole world. People who were originally a little depressed were encouraged by his words and decided to live well, even if not for themselves, but for their children, fathers, lovers or friends.
Yu Miaomiao was also encouraged by these words. She was not very depressed. After all, she had enough to eat and drink. She just missed her best friend who was like a family member to her.
After Yu Miaomiao's parents passed away, she and her best friend Yue Yina have been dependent on each other for many years. In her original world, her best friend took good care of her and gave her more warmth than her family. She wanted to obtain more resources before Yue Yina came so that both of them could live well.
Yu Miaomiao slept very soundly and did not hear the cold wind blowing outside the house at all.
The temperature outside was close to zero degrees Celsius at night. Many people were freezing tonight. They either had no beds or no houses. Some people even froze to death in the middle of the night.
Yu Miaomiao wrapped herself tightly in the quilt in her dream and slept until the next morning.
She was woken up by the heat and had no perception of what happened last night. She lay in bed feeling a little lazy. Yu Miaomiao called up the system holographic interface according to her thoughts.
The world chat was much quieter than yesterday. There were not even a few people chatting, and even the transaction information was pitifully scarce. It was completely different from what Yu Miaomiao saw before going to bed.
Could something have happened last night that she didn't know about? Yu Miaomiao got up and looked back at the historical information.
You don’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked when you see it.
At the beginning of last night, some people were still complaining about how cold it was, and then countless people flooded the screen with requests for quilts and clothes.
Until someone later suggested that building wooden houses and beds could keep out the cold, and people started asking for wood and screws. Later, probably because those people were too cold to type, the chats in the world gradually stopped.
Yu Miaomiao didn't expect that one of her guesses would come true. The system gave her this kind of bed with a quilt to cope with the extremely cold nights.
As the death toll reached 783, she became more and more aware of the cruelty of this apocalyptic world.
[Desert Survival Day 2 10:01 AM]
There were still two hours before the new gift packages were distributed, and Yu Miaomiao glanced at her personal panel.
[Player's real name: Yu Miaomiao
Player nickname: Meow Meow is not short of water
Age: 23
Game Traits: Lucky
Stamina: 29 (upgradable)
Agility: 66 (upgradable)
Wisdom: 15 (upgradable)
Strength: 35 (upgradable)
Luck value: 900 (not upgradeable)
Her strength actually decreased a little, and at that moment her stomach started to growl.
Taking out the hamburger from the backpack, which was still hot, Yu Miaomiao started to eat it without hesitation.
Before she knew it, she had finished a burger. The taste was very similar to that of a chain brand, which happened to be her favorite flavor. She glanced at her personal panel and found that her physical strength value had increased to 32 points, an increase of 2 points compared to yesterday.
Could it be that eating well plays a big role in maintaining or increasing physical strength? After drinking half a bottle of water, she began to study the synthesis formulas of the remaining three items.
The sun made the house very stuffy. She pushed open the door and was greeted by a wave of heat. The familiar heat made Yu Miaomiao quickly take out the broken umbrella from yesterday from her space backpack and open it.
Although the umbrella made her feel much cooler, the sunlight that penetrated the holes in the umbrella and shone on her skin still caused a burning sensation. It seemed that the sun today was much hotter than yesterday, and the skin that was exposed to the sun gradually turned red.
Although you won't get sunburned to death if you stay in the house, you will definitely suffocate. After thinking about it, the simple repair table seems to be very important.
In addition to the synthesis button, there is also a question mark button behind the items in today's item synthesis guide. When you touch it, you can see a brief description of the item.
The description following the simple repair station is: Can repair items below level 10.
Yu Miaomiao sees the properties of the umbrella through the holographic image:
【Name: Outdoor parasol (25/100)
Level: 3
Function: Can block the sun better
Attribute: Defense 50 points]
Yesterday she was wondering what the number following the name meant, but after seeing this umbrella she understood that it represented the durability of the item.
It takes 4 pieces of scrap iron to make a simple repair table, but she only has 2 pieces now, and she still needs 2 pieces. However, Yu Miaomiao not only wants to make a repair table, but also wants to make a workbench.
Looking at the sun rising higher and higher, Yu Miaomiao posted an exchange message on the World Channel: 1 chicken wing for 4 pieces of scrap metal.
Before twelve o'clock, chicken wings should be a very popular food. In order to get greater value, she hopes to exchange them for the scrap iron she needs as soon as possible.
The world chat is refreshing very slowly now, and many people have seen this message. If she hadn't been watching for a long time and no one had offered to exchange it for scrap metal, she wouldn't have wanted to draw attention to herself.
Sure enough, someone came out to talk about her.
"Sunny Day: Someone actually opened a chicken wing. The steamed bun in my hand suddenly lost its flavor."
"We're not short of money: those who can exchange food must have other food. Those who have more than enough don't think about helping us who are starving to death, but instead think about making food for themselves. How selfish."
"Spring Blossoms: I have two pieces of scrap metal. Can I exchange them for a chicken wing?"
"Seal the Heart and Lock the Love: It's almost twelve o'clock. Then you can draw a card and get a gift bag. There must be food in it. Let this person guarding the chicken wings rot in the bag."
Most of the people in the world were talking about Yu Miaomiao. She tried her best to ignore them, but soon she received a message alert.
Click on the little red dot under the chat interface, and a temporary conversation list will appear in the holographic image, including a message.
"Is Pipi here? Can I trade you three pieces of scrap metal for one chicken wing? If I can find another one today, I'll give it to you."
If there were 3 of them, I could only make a simple repair table first. The temperature was getting higher and higher, and signs of sunburn had begun to appear on her skin. She hesitated for half a minute and replied with one word: OK.
Soon the other party initiated a transaction request.
Both parties only need to put their items in the transaction box, confirm the items and click confirm transaction to exchange the corresponding items.
Looking at the three extra pieces of scrap metal in the bag, Yu Miaomiao couldn't help but sigh that this aspect of the system was quite convenient.
"Is Pipi here? Thank you for the chicken wings. They are delicious."
Unexpectedly, this person was so polite, so Yu Miaomiao had no choice but to politely reply:
"Meow meow, you're welcome. Enjoy it slowly."
The other party sent another message.
"Is Pipi here? This temporary dialog box will only exist for one day and will disappear the next day. If I don't find any scrap metal today, I'll give it to you again if I see you talking in a few days."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: OK."
Yu Miaomiao just took it as a polite remark. After the exchange was completed, she accepted it as 3 yuan. It was just a nickname transaction, and she didn't expect that someone in this doomsday world would be so trustworthy.
Clicking the 'Synthesize' button behind the simple repair table, a small square table began to transform from a virtual image to a real object. Yu Miaomiao glanced at the time and found that the construction process of this simple repair table only took 1 minute.
There was a built-in repair kit on the simple repair table. Yu Miaomiao tried to take away one of the small hammers, but it quickly disappeared and then reappeared on the repair table. It seemed that the things here could only be used on the table.
How to repair it? Slide the umbrella onto the repair table through the holographic image, and you will see a miniature umbrella. There is a repair button when you touch it lightly.
But repairs actually require materials. Well, how could repairing something be possible without materials? Or was she being too naive?
The button on the repair has an indication: Nylon cloth (0/2), Wood (2/2), Screw (2/2).
Obviously, she had enough wood and screws, but she was just wondering where to get the two pieces of nylon cloth.
In just a short while, her whole body was tanned red by the sun, and Yu Miaomiao had to open the umbrella again.
I glanced at the time [Desert Survival Day 2 11:58 AM]
She could only hope that there would be other goodies in the lunch gift package. If not, she could only continue to exchange it with chicken wings.
As the card drawing time approaches, everyone is speculating on the world channel about what good stuff they will get at noon.
【System prompt: Please draw your gift pack card】
