Chapter 58: Desert Survival Day 9 (1) Fighting with the Tiandihui People...
"Is Pipi here? Well, I gave all the OEM drawings to Ziren. I recently had someone make two mining hammers specifically for me. They're much faster than stone pickaxes and have a higher yield."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Don't tell me, right now, outside, in this weather, you are digging the ground?"
When Yu Miaomiao was halfway through her OEM work, it was already too hot and she turned on the condensing fan.
"Is Pipi here? Yeah, you told me I could dig more if I had nothing to do. Who knows, I might find something good. I thought about it and realized I'm indeed faster at digging than Ziren and the others. At night, I don't dare wander around, so I dig during the day. And just now, I actually dug up a small copper ore."
Hearing Pipi say this, Yu Miaomiao admired her more and more. She actually had the energy to mine under such a scorching sun.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: You should also take care of your health and don't get a heat stroke. I'm afraid of getting sick here."
"Is Pipi here? Well, I was very clever and moved the awning along the way to dig, but it's not very useful. I'll continue after the sun goes down a bit. Sister Miaomiao, did you make an electric fan? A condensing type or something? Is it useful?"
Yu Miaomiao was enjoying the cool breeze at this time and replied immediately.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I made one, it's pretty good. I originally wanted to sell it at the auction house, but now it's so cool that I want to hug it."
"Is Pipi here? I'm so jealous! It's a shame I've never killed an Ice Spike Bird. I heard it's the only one that drops this frozen organ. There are two people selling it at the auction house, but it's too expensive, 50 slime pieces."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: The reason it hasn't been sold yet is because the price is too high. You can go and negotiate the price."
The auction house supports temporary private chats, and some buyers will privately chat with the sellers to discuss the price.
"Is Pipi here? Okay, I'll go give it a try."
After the transaction, the status of the Explosive Fruit Tree will change to "Explosive Fruit to be Harvested (0/1)"
The explosive fruit tree was not tall, even shorter than Yu Miaomiao. It bore five dark purple fruits as big as apples. She could reach the fruits with her hand.
Will it explode if I take it off directly?
Try to collect the fruit into the system backpack.
[System prompt: Congratulations to the player Miaomiao for harvesting the special plant - Explosive Fruit. Your wisdom value increases by 1.]
[System prompt: Congratulations to Miaomiao Buqueshui for becoming the first player to collect the Explosion Fruit. An announcement will be issued to all players who have unlocked the leaderboard.]
announcement?
She seemed to have seen someone mention it on the forum. She glanced at it at the time and saw that it said that only the first person to obtain a certain special plant would be announced. Surprisingly, no one had ever collected this explosive fruit.
[System Notice: Congratulations to Miaomiao Buqueshui for becoming the first player to obtain the special plant - Explosive Fruit, and receive a system reward.]
award?
Yu Miaomiao opened the flashing 'Information' icon.
[Successfully trigger the Lucky trait and obtain walkie-talkies*2.]
Walkie-talkie? Who is she talking to?
Forget it, at least there are two of us, at least we can talk to each other instead of talking alone.
But this announcement...
It's too eye-catching.
Soon she received a group chat message.
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, you're so awesome! Wow, you actually collected some special plants. Did you grow them?"
"Pangpang: Sister Miaomiao, this message of yours can be seen by everyone in the server who has unlocked the leaderboard. Be careful of those with bad intentions."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Did you all see it?"
"Is Pipi here? Yes! But don't worry too much, Sister Miaomiao. I heard that several people triggered the announcement the day before yesterday. Although not many people saw it then, it's not new. I'm curious about what this special plant is like."
『Meow Meow is not short of water:【Explosion Fruit】』
[Name: Explosion Fruit (1/1)
Level: 12
Introduction: After being projected, it can cause an earth-shaking explosion effect, so use it with caution!
Attributes: Attack power 3200, wide explosion range.
She had never seen such a high attack power before.
After the announcement was made, she received inquiries and friend requests from different people, but she did not respond to any of them.
Instead, he spoke directly to the world.
"Miaomiao is not short of water: Many people asked me what the special plant I just collected is. My answer is that it is the [Explosion Fruit].
The world was in an uproar for a while, probably no one expected that there would be something with such high attack power.
The special plants collected by others before either emitted special smells or could temporarily increase physical strength after being eaten. I have never seen plant fruits with offensive effects.
Some people also expressed their surprise, wondering why it is only level 12 with such a high attack power. Although level 12 items are rare, it is too unreasonable to have such a high attack power value of 3200.
Someone immediately noticed the problem, and the system even warned people to use it with caution in the introduction, as the effect of this thing might be too great and all users would be affected.
Yu Miaomiao deliberately sent it to everyone to let others know that if they were going to target her, they should be prepared for a "shake-up".
After she posted her own separate OEM post, she knew she couldn't hide any longer.
In fact, it should have been earlier. When she was being criticized by everyone, she should have stood up instead of hiding herself.
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, you are so tough."
"Chubby: This is good too. No one will dare to bother you anymore."
"Miaomiao is not short of water: Well, I'm afraid that someone with ulterior motives will use others to test me, but that's all for the future. Those who want to cause trouble for me will come to me no matter what. With this Explosion Fruit, I can also intimidate them."
"Is Pipi here?: Yes, at least when I come to cause trouble for you, I have to consider whether I can avoid this "bomb"."
Indeed, this fruit looks more like a huge bomb in the system item details.
But this bomb is different from the cannon they want. The cannon only attacks the enemy, but this fruit may implicate themselves.
The world was discussing this all the time, but Yu Miaomiao didn't pay any attention to it. Instead, she returned to her workbench and quickly finished the toilet paper production.
After using 40 sets of materials to make 50 sets of toilet paper, Yu Miaomiao immediately traded the items to Pipi.
After the exploding fruit was harvested, the entire tree disappeared without leaving any seeds or trees for her to plant again.
Yu Miaomiao glanced at the rankings. She was already on the plant collection rankings, 43rd place. Not bad, she finally caught up.
She planted the remaining wheat and raspberry seeds in the empty planting boxes, watered them, and checked the time.
There were ten minutes left before the lottery, so she had already exchanged her mineral water for steamed buns and dumplings with others, and was ready to use the adventure card 2 minutes before the draw.
When you first enter the adventure area, the monsters you encounter are all passively attacking, which is just right for drawing cards and claiming rewards. Yu Miaomiao and Hua Bie have confirmed that you can also draw cards in the adventure area.
Currently, there are 110 empty slots in the system backpack, which should be enough to hold all rewards and supplies for the expedition.
As for why she was in such a hurry to go, it was a decision she had thought about for a while.
The right to use the expedition area is on a first-come, first-served basis. If a later arrival wishes to enter the expedition area, they must obtain the consent of the current user.
The adventure location corresponding to an adventure experience card is designated and cannot be switched.
The first survivor to arrive at the designated expedition site has exclusive ownership for 12 hours and can decide whether to allow others to enter.
If agreed, the person who enters will inherit the ownership after the previous survivor's ownership expires, and the time will also start from the time the heir enters.
After the 12-hour ownership expires, if there is only one player in the expedition site, the first survivor who enters freely will have another 12-hour ownership, and the cycle will continue until the expedition site becomes vacant.
Currently, the ranking of the expedition site rankings and the expedition progress have not changed, which means that not many people are exploring the sites, and most of the expedition sites should be vacant.
Once the card drawing is over, some people will get adventure cards, and others with adventure cards will also get new weapons and supplies, and they may all enter the adventure site one after another.
Regardless of whether the expedition site is full or not, she doesn't want to apply to enter other people's expedition sites and increase the risk.
The time was almost up, Yu Miaomiao found the 'Dark Oasis Adventure Single Experience Card' and clicked 'Use'. The card did not disappear, but appeared in a phantom state. The next time it was used, it would be teleported back.
Yu Miaomiao was immediately surrounded by a halo, and she felt like she had turned into a glowing monster. The next second, she felt dizzy, and the scenery in front of her eyes changed instantly.
**
"Brother Qiang, my thermal detector just showed that there was someone in front of me, why did the detection suddenly disappear?"
A blond man with a crew cut was holding something as big as a CD and pointing in the direction of Yu Miaomiao's house.
Their current location was blocked by a small sand dune and they couldn't see what was happening over there.
The man named Brother Qiang was a very burly man with a square face beneath a bald head. His expression was a little heavy. "Silent," he said, "it's so hot now, it's normal for the heat detector to fail. Let's not waste time detouring to find survivors along the way. Let's go meet up with Aliang and the others first."
The yellow-haired man called Silent said hesitantly, "Brother Qiang, the vice president asked us to recruit all the survivors along the way, or kill them. Wouldn't it be bad to go against his wishes?"
Brother Qiang touched his bald head that was sunburned, took out a green umbrella from his backpack and opened it. "Silent, don't you think it's not hot enough? Before you kill the other person, you will be sunburned to death here."
"It's all this Wind Skateboard's fault. I haven't used it for long and its durability has already reached 0. The two people in the guild with wind organs didn't reply to me, and now they can't repair it. Tsk, they are really tired of living." 'Silence' put the skateboard-like object under his feet into his backpack and spat twice.
Brother Qiang put the breeze skateboard under his feet into the system backpack. He didn't want to respond, but pointed in a direction and said, "Aliang is over there."
Silent said with some embarrassment on his face: "Brother Qiang, if the Vice President finds out, we..."
"Alright!" Brother Qiang interrupted with a frown. "Are you really that afraid of the big winner in life? What kind of person is he? He developed so well in the early stages, but it was all thanks to plundering a girl's supplies. Now he has no combat ability, no good items, and can't do anything but lick Yang Haotian's boots. Does he need you to be so obedient?"
Silence rubbed his hands and said, "Brother Qiang, I don't have to listen to him. You know I'm addicted to smoking. He has cigarettes, and I just want one to satisfy my craving."
Brother Qiang had a scar on his head that stretched from his head to his brow bone. It shone in the sunlight, making his face look extremely fierce. He replied impatiently, "You're so eager to please him, giving him supplies and heads for free. Don't even talk about wanting to hang out with me anymore. Get out now."
Silence quickly waved his hands and explained, "No, Brother Qiang, how could I possibly please him? That big winner in life, a big winner, is just a clown. How can he compare to you? What he said yesterday, not only did you get upset, but many people in the club have a problem with him. He won't be able to stay alive for many days."
After the silence, Brother Qiang's slightly angry expression did not change. He could only continue to flatter and say, "How could I not follow you, Brother Qiang? Without you, I wouldn't even be able to make it into the top ten of the beta test server competition. Please don't bother with a mean person like me."
The silence of speaking is the ninth place in the beta test competition - dried silence.
As for the other strong brother, he is ranked sixth and is strong no matter how old he is.
Brother Qiang stepped on the sand. His worn-out outdoor work boots were really stuffy. He took off his shoes to test the ground temperature, then put them back on reluctantly.
Seeing this, Chen Mo immediately flattered him: "Brother Qiang, why don't you wear the pair I'm wearing? Although they're not as good as yours, they're suitable for walking in the desert. I'll wear yours, or we can go barefoot."
Brother Qiang glanced at his feet and snorted, "You know your shoes won't fit me, so you're just saying this nonsense, right? Stop talking nonsense and kill two more monsters tonight."
He silently looked at the back of the bald man who was walking in front of him and was half a head taller than him. A gloomy look appeared on his face, which was different from before. The moment before Brother Qiang turned around, he immediately put on a smile and followed him.
**
Yu Miaomiao landed on the ground after a dizzy spell. The crunching sound of gravel was no longer on her feet, but rather soft soil and grass.
What lies before my eyes is a lush green landscape, which is in stark contrast to the Gobi Desert seen within the nine days of the apocalypse.
After looking at yellowish things for a long time, my eyes will feel much more comfortable when I see a green picture.
On both sides are endless open sparse lawns, and in the distance are vaguely visible sand dunes. This should be the entrance to the dark oasis.
