Chapter 54 Desert Survival Day 8 (7) Breaking News
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I want to exchange for 2 pieces of powdered flowers. I have bones, could you please grind some bone meal? What do you want in exchange?"
"Hua Bie: I don't need anything right now. If I have to say, it's weapons. I see your work orders for today have already been closed. Is your schedule full?"
After finishing Iris's order, it would be around four in the afternoon. There was also another order for a high-quality workbench and indoor fireplace. By the time she finished all of them, it would be almost evening, and she would have the rest of the time to use for her own supplies.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Yes, it's fully booked. Sorry, or do you have any other needs?"
"Hua Bie: Anything else? Oh, by the way, aren't you going to the Dark Oasis? How about giving me one-tenth of the supplies you get the first time you go there?"
One tenth?
Yu Miaomiao planned to break through 1% of the progress in the game, or 2% would be good. She would probably encounter stronger monsters after opening a few treasure chests, and she might not be able to defeat them.
Moreover, the items in the treasure chests in the early stages are all very basic supplies, and you don’t even know if there are two pieces of wood in one-tenth of them.
Is he sure he wants one-tenth of that 2%?
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Are you sure?"
"Hua Bie: Well, I'll lend you my simple shield and paraglider, and 20 poison arrows. If you shoot one of them accurately, you can directly poison a mammoth."
Ah, it seems that Hua Bie is planning to invest in her to make her produce more, but the mammoth has already reached the point where it actively attacks monsters as he said, which is more than the 2% she expected.
There are three types of mammoths, old and young, both of which are passive-aggressive monsters, and only one belligerent one will actively attack humans. Maybe she can give it a try.
"Meow Meow: Okay, thank you in advance, but I have to warn you, my archery skills are not very good. If I don't find much supplies, it's definitely not intentional."
Yu Miaomiao said this with some helplessness. Her archery skills were really unbearable to watch. It was not that she wanted to exempt herself from responsibility in advance.
"Hua Bie: It's okay. Each expedition site has a limited number of locations. In the early stages, when no one has expedition cards or vehicles, those who arrive first will definitely enjoy it first. If we don't open more expedition sites later, with too many people going, I think it will be difficult to go there. If you go earlier, you might find something I haven't noticed."
Hua Bie has been to the Dark Oasis many times, but each time the single expedition area is stuck at 16%, and the progress has not been updated. Although after the previous sorting, he may be able to try some branches again, but this will not allow him to completely clear the expedition area.
The location of the treasure chests is different each time, but the number is fixed. He thinks there must be some treasure chests hidden in places he can't notice, so if someone else goes, maybe they can get the treasures from a different perspective.
If the adventure site rankings are based on percentages, the maximum value should be 100%. Whoever reaches 100% first will occupy a higher ranking. As long as there is one day that is less than 100%, even if it is only 99%, there will be a day when they will be surpassed.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Well, after I come back this time, I will also share all my adventure strategies with you."
After the two of them discussed and confirmed it, Hua Bie traded all the materials and borrowed items to Yu Miaomiao.
Now there is only one piece of summer grass flower left. Yu Miaomiao plans to ask Iris after finishing the arrow set. If that doesn't work, she can only use mucus to buy it at the auction house.
She was already very skilled at making arrow sets on a simple workbench, but this was her first time on a high-quality workbench.
Five minutes later.
[Successfully trigger the lucky trait, synthesize arrow set*4]
That’s really good, the speed is indeed twice as fast. It seems that making items on a high-quality workbench takes half the time compared to a simple workbench.
"Iris: Hello, are you making the arrow set?"
Yu Miaomiao now accepts orders and receives materials in a unified manner. She will deliver the goods to the orderer after they are completed, and has confirmed with everyone that no urgent orders will be accepted.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Yeah, I'm doing it, what's wrong?"
"Iris: I know you're not going to add to your order once it's confirmed, but I'm in urgent need of arrow sets. Could you please make me two more? I'll pay a bit more for the work. I can use freezing, wind-powered organs, or anything else you need."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I'm sorry, I really can't add an order, I have other orders later."
She did already have two extra groups, but if everyone placed an order, Yu Miaomiao would not only be too busy to handle it, but would also delay other people's orders.
"Iris: Can I have an extra set? Oh no, can I buy yours? I saw you have a poison bow on the auction house. Do you have any extra arrow sets you can sell?"
OEM would take up extra time, so Iris's request to buy what she already has is reasonable. If it's just one set of arrows, she can sell it to her if the other party offers a suitable price.
But is there a big difference between group 30 and group 31 for Iris? Yu Miaomiao didn't ask too much.
Moreover, the other party proposed a private transaction, which definitely meant that he did not want to buy it through the auction house slime. It just so happened that Yu Miaomiao planned to ask her if she had any summer grass flowers.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: If you have summer grass flowers, I will sell you a set of arrows for 2 summer grass flowers. Do you think it's a good deal?"
At the auction house, summer grass flowers are sold in packages of three, priced at the price of one portion of slime, but no one has bought them yet, which means they are not a hot seller.
There are also people selling arrow sets, usually 2 sets of arrows for 1 piece of slime, but they are quickly sold out. Now there are still some that are priced at 1 set of arrows for 1 piece of slime, but they have not been sold yet.
Yu Miaomiao can of course also use 1 piece of slime to buy 3 pieces of grass flowers at the auction house, and then go to the auction house to sell a set of arrows for the slime.
However, this is time-consuming and requires a set of arrows to be mortgaged at the auction house, so it is best to obtain them directly through appropriate exchanges. This is why everyone still exchanges in the world.
"Iris: Sure. Since I've wasted your time, I'll give you an extra portion of Fuzao petals. I hope we can have a long and pleasant cooperation in the future."
In Yu Miaomiao's impression, a person who killed countless monsters should be very cold, but she didn't expect that she would be quite comfortable to get along with and be very considerate of other people's feelings. She replied "Okay, thank you" and continued to devote herself to the production.
After using 25 sets of materials to make 30 sets of arrows and 6 sets of materials to make 10 sets of primary backpack expanders, Yu Miaomiao and Iris completed all the transactions.
Her stamina dropped to 20 points again. She stretched and moved her sore shoulders. She felt a little tired after working at the workbench for a long time.
I took out a tangerine and prepared to replenish my energy. Just when I was halfway through eating it, I received a new group chat.
"Is Pipi here? Breaking news!!"
Hot news? Yu Miaomiao, who was a little tired from rubbing her hands, immediately perked up when she saw this.
"Pangpang: Is this some gossip again?"
"Is Pipi here? It really is!"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: What gossip makes you so excited?"
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, do you know the player map?"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Is it just the map after clicking on the friend to view it? What gossip is there about that thing?"
"Whether Pipi is here or not: It's not really gossip, it's because of this map that the Tiandihui members are slowly gathering together."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Huh? Why? Are they going to build a base? But what does this have to do with this map?"
"Is Pipi here? Normally, the more humans gather, the more monsters appear. But they gathered so quickly, it seems like there's a murderer."
Huh? A murderer?
Yu Miaomiao shuddered when she thought of some of the plots she had seen in horror movies.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: What do you mean by murderous maniac?"
"Is Pipi here? I also heard about it. A member of the Tiandihui once added someone as a friend, but was killed on a dark night. He then found out the location of other Tiandihui members and killed a few more."
"Is Pipi here? Later, probably because the Tiandihui members became wary, the maniac realized it was inconvenient to continue after killing people, so he started using the survivors' information to deceive them, then find them, abuse them, and then continue using new survivors' information, repeating the cycle."
Oh my god. Is that really that exaggerated?
Yu Miaomiao had asked Pipi before whether the system had a union function, but it turned out that it did not.
The Tiandihui organized by Yang Haotian was entirely maintained by group chats and posts.
Many private or temporary matters can only be communicated through group chats, and to join a group, you must add the group owner as a friend.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Does everyone in the group have to be a friend? "
"Is Pipi here? No, but many people there have added each other as friends for the convenience of transactions and organizational communication. Basically, each member will add hundreds or even thousands of friends, and there are many unfamiliar faces among them."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Just looking at the friend map, it would be quite troublesome for a murderer to find friends. He would have to find a lone person first, and then check his friends one by one to see who is nearby. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to commit crimes so frequently."
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, don't you know how to display all friends on the friend map?"
All friends?
Yu Miaomiao clicked on Pipi again to check on her friends. There was indeed no location of all her friends on the map. Only Pipi's nickname was on it. And she felt that Pipi's location had changed.
"Miaomiao is not short of water: I clicked on Pipi's, but it only showed Api's. And the lit areas are only places I've been to. The black areas I haven't been to will only show the coordinates when I touch a friend's nickname. Am I missing something?"
"Is Pipi here? You can use your mind to control "Show all players" or "Show current player" on this map, so that you can see the corresponding locations of all your friends on this map."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Is there some explanation for this map that I haven't noticed? Or is there some user guide for this apocalyptic system that I have missed?"
"Is Pipi here? Hehe, I discovered this myself. I was bored mining and liked staring at the holographic screen. I also used to like gossiping with my classmates, so I just messed around and came up with these features."
Unexpectedly, 'View Players' was a hidden function, just like when Pipi told her that the message alert sound could be turned on and off, it was all figured out by human effort.
Yu Miaomiao followed her instructions and opened the player map showing the locations of all her friends. On this map, she could see the distance between her, Lulu, and Pippi more clearly.
I didn't expect that the distance between the three people was almost the same. When I opened the map of a single person before, I only had a rough impression of the distance. In this map showing all players, the positions of the three people almost formed an equilateral triangle.
"Pangpang: I didn't know about this feature either. At the time, I had deleted most of my friends. Only A-Pi, Xiaozhi, Yueyue, and Ziren were left. The other one was my brother, so it must have been my brother who betrayed me."
