Chapter 93 Desert Survival Day 11 (8) House Reinforcement Device…
"Is Pipi here? Sister Meow Meow! I've just learned a new skill called a feeder. What do you think it's good for? Is it possible to have pets in the apocalypse? Then wouldn't I be able to become a monster owner?"
"Pangpang: Sister Meow Meow, guess what I learned? An intermediate medical kit!!!"
The two messages were sent one after another.
Have a pet?
Can those apocalyptic monsters become pets?
If we have to call it a pet, only creatures with self-awareness like Xiaoguai can be pets. Are there many such self-aware creatures in the apocalypse?
So the appearance of monsters like Xiaoguai is not a bug as I thought, but a game design?
"Meow Meow: Wow, what materials are needed to make a mid-level medical kit? I want to make a few too. As for the feeders, are they really for survivors to keep pets? I don't think so. It's hard to survive here on your own, let alone raise a small animal. Unless it's a powerful monster that can help you, but can the monsters here really be tamed?"
Yu Miaomiao found it hard to imagine what it was like to raise a cat or dog in a place like this. In her mind, there was only the zebra tiger cat covered in mud.
Thinking of the image of Xiaoguai's body, Yu Miaomiao vowed today to make the three-in-one shower gel and see if there was a chance to clean it. Not only would it be comfortable for her to look at, but without the restraint of mud and green blocks, it should be able to resume its movement and better help her kill monsters.
In fact, when thinking of Xiaoguai, Yu Miaomiao was not absolutely confident that it would not hurt her. It could even be said that it was tamed, just like telling it to do something or not to do something.
And apart from this one and only zebra cat, she had never seen any other monster that was not hostile to humans.
"Is Pipi here? What if there's one? Making a feeder isn't expensive. All it takes is 2 thick ropes, 4 pieces of wood, and 4 pieces of scrap metal. How about I make one and see? If I could actually tame a wild animal with a feeder, it sounds like a good deal."
With just so few materials, one can make a feeder and tame monsters. Yu Miaomiao felt that it must not be that simple.
"Pangpang: Sister Meow Meow, to make an intermediate medical kit, you need 20 mucus, 20 bone powder, 5 high-quality cloth, and 2 resins."
"Chubby: I don't think the system is that kind. This feeder must be some weird thing."
"Is Pipi here? Hey, I'll make one first and try it out. It's so hot out now, and I can't dig. If it doesn't work out, I'll just put it up for auction."
Yu Miaomiao also thought so, but she couldn't resist Api's curiosity.
Api usually gave the drawings to Ziren, who thought they were of little use and asked her to handle them herself. Api immediately went to learn them. It was a rare opportunity for her to have a drawing that she could make by herself, so she didn't listen to their analysis and started working right away.
She didn’t know what bones were used for before, but now they can be used starting from the intermediate medical kit.
The usefulness of the crusher is gradually becoming apparent. If grinding stones to obtain stone powder and making foundations is a one-time use of the crusher, then making bone powder is the long-term use of the crusher.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I don't have bone meal yet. I'll give it to you after I finish grinding the stone in the crusher. Can you please make two batches for me then? I'll tell you what you need for the labor fee."
"Chubby: My grinder is empty, how about I grind the flour for you?"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Aren't you going to build a brick foundation? My wooden house is reinforced, and when the wind blows, I can feel that the wooden foundation is very unstable. One of the boards has even warped. I think even if it's not to speed up the system function upgrade, for safety reasons, it's best to build a brick foundation quickly. It should be very useful."
"Chubby: It's okay. I can slowly build the foundation. Most people haven't unlocked this yet. The system shouldn't destroy so many survivors' houses so quickly."
"Miaomiao is not short of water: Lulu, don't be too careless. We are still unsure of this system's purpose and next move. I'm not in a rush for the intermediate medical kit. You two should build the foundation as soon as possible. It will be safer. Who knows what tricks the Doomsday System will play next."
"Chubby: Yeah, okay. I don't want to reveal this intermediate medical kit for now. After all, it's very effective at repairing and healing. But there's something I find strange: it seems like the same few people are always the ones who know how to make medical supplies. Even making bandages, no one has learned how to make them yet. If someone isn't deliberately hiding their skills, I have a feeling this system has ulterior motives, or is waiting for something."
"Is Pipi here? This is a broken system. It's useless and makes us suffer here."
The wind and sand outside Yu Miaomiao's house gradually faded away, and she walked out again.
This time the sandstorm lasted longer than ever before. When Yu Miaomiao looked outside from inside the house, she felt that the entire sky was covered with sand.
When she went out to take a look, she saw that as expected, a layer of sand had fallen on the roof, some of which was hidden in the roller shutter rain cover, weighing down the entire roller shutter. She poked it with a wooden stick, and the sand poured out.
The rain cover flipped down as she pulled it.
The opened rain cover hung in the air, about two meters away from the wall of the wooden house. Standing under the cover, Yu Miaomiao felt an indescribable sense of peace in her heart for some reason.
Why did she feel at ease standing under the awning?
She had been thinking about this problem before. It was clearly a house reinforcement, so why was there an extra thing like a awning?
It doesn't rain here. If there is anything that rains, it's sand.
Could it be that this awning is actually a sand shelter?
There is a pull rope at both ends of the shed. After pulling it, the hanging cover can be rolled back, and then pulled again to lower the cover.
Yu Miaomiao turned on the sandstorm forecaster and took a look. "Within 5 kilometers, the next sandstorm will arrive in 2 hours, 1 minute, and 12 seconds, and is expected to last 2 hours and 34 minutes."
This time, both the arrival time and the duration time were very long, two hours both inside and outside the house. In fact, with the current heat, it is very uncomfortable whether staying inside or outside, and people can only endure it.
Is the system really designed to torture them?
It shouldn't be just that. Yu Miaomiao always felt that reinforcing the house might be a breakthrough.
I searched the forum and found a post that discussed the exterior reinforcement device of the house in a small circle. They all thought it was for the next world.
The next world, which is the end of the world after the desert survival, is speculated to be a rainy season world, and this will come in handy then.
Yu Miaomiao felt that the items in the system's own synthesis guide were all linked together, and there wouldn't be something that appeared long in advance and was useless now. It was probably because they hadn't discovered the true use of this house reinforcement device.
There were still unfinished things on the workbench, and there were more than two hours before the next sandstorm. She wanted to try and see if one of her guesses was correct.
She certainly didn't dare to conduct the experiment alone in a sandstorm, so she could only simulate the sandstorm scene on the spot.
The roller blinds of the awning were lowered, forming an aisle with ventilation on both sides and back to the house. The roller blinds in front of her blocked most of her body, and only the wind from her feet could come in.
Yu Miaomiao first placed the condensing fans at the entrances of the aisles on both sides, blowing towards the aisles covered by the roller shutters.
The cold wind can come in, but the wind speed is much lower.
Placed on the front of the roller shutter tent, the air vent on the lower part of the fan can also let in a little air, but it is not obvious.
What about the sand?
She walked around and was able to collect a lot of high-quality sand. She collected a large pile and put it in her backpack.
At the entrance of the passage on the left, use 10 parts of high-quality sand to build a small sandbag, about half a leg high, then point the fan nozzle at the small sandbag and blow it into the passage blocked by the awning.
The wind was blowing, and the sand on the sand dunes was blown up by the fan. Some of the sand scattered outside, and some of the sand entered the passage and fell slowly to the ground as if encountering some resistance. Finally, it slipped out through the opening under the roller shutter and was blown away by the wind.
So, if she hides under this sand shelter when a sandstorm comes, can she feel the wind but not be blown by the sand?
If this is the case, the only question left to be verified is whether the wind brought by this sandstorm with yellow sand all over the sky will blow her away from the passage blocked by the roller shutter.
If she were to come in person, she wouldn't dare to risk her life standing outside to test it, after all, she only has one life, but she can use other methods to confirm it.
When the next sandstorm comes, she plans to put some objects of different weights in this passage to see if the objects are still there after the sandstorm.
It would be best to place something of similar size and weight to her so that the verification can be more accurate.
What can be done?
By the way, Yu Miaomiao learned a new craft from the drawings given to her by Ai Chi Moshu - making a flashing straw man.
Logically speaking, the scarecrow should be about the same height and size as a human, but I don’t know how much it weighs, so I have to make one.
Thinking of this, she felt more and more that there were too many things waiting for her to do and she couldn't stop for even a second.
She had been forced to stop working on her workbench because the room was too hot, and this passage was just big enough to accommodate another workbench.
I just need to lean my back against the wooden wall and stay close to the workbench to continue working, and I can also feel the breeze, which should be much more comfortable than staying in the house.
Moreover, as long as the items on the workbench are not synthesized into the final item, they cannot be taken out of the fixed area of the workbench, and there is no need to worry that the things made on the workbench will be blown away.
However, this simple sand shelter has no sunshade effect. My head feels hot after staying in it for a while. The outdoor parasol that the system gave me at the beginning is more useful.
She returned to where she usually worked, opened the outdoor parasol, spread out the mat, started the crusher, and continued to work.
The production of plastic bottles is very simple. The injection molding machine will emit a lot of heat. One plastic block and one resin can be synthesized into three plastic bottles. To operate, you only need to select the model type and start the injection molding machine.
Next was the waiting time. The countdown showed five minutes left, and she clicked on the new message.
"Is Pipi here? Help, help, SOS, this system is really not human, look at this [feeder]. "
