Chapter 248
"Hey? Isn't it normal to encounter a large number of pirate ships every day? Haven't we been like this for a long time? Are they different from us?" Qiao Sheng was very surprised to hear that other people's scripts were different.
"It seems that when I was transferring with Pei Hong and others a few days ago, our ship was always sandwiched in the middle, and I didn't pay much attention to the pirate ships outside. Now thinking back, it seems that we only encountered a pirate ship once at night, and only once or twice during the day." Li Mu also recalled for a long time before remembering some of it.
Who would have thought that you could be treated differently in the game.
"We are being targeted!" Xia Beibei took off the radio headset and sighed and concluded.
No matter how bad life is, they have to go on. The cooperation between the people is getting better and better. Not only the four of them are busy, but even the pandas are busy. The one who has the easiest job on the whole ship should be the panda Diudiu who has not grown up yet.
The others have to work as soon as they eat. The others sleep well, but the pandas have a completely reversed day and night, and they work the night shift with Qiao Sheng every day.
After a period of research, Li Mu also saw a little bit of the way the pirates communicated by radio, but it was a pity that he didn't know the coordinates of the other party, so he could only wait for the other party to find him.
As for the increase in pirate ships on Pei Hong and Shen Li's side, they can only persuade each other that pirates are good because they can get more supplies and pirate ship flags. The key point is that it is much easier to clean up pirate ships than pirate islands.
Except for affecting everyone's rest, the other advantages outweigh the disadvantages. However, both of their fleets have more players, so the duty arrangement is easy to solve.
Since the game announced the pirate mechanism, the relationship between all players has been unprecedentedly harmonious, including those dangerous elements in the past. Now they are also focused on cleaning up pirates and all want to go home.
In the game, you can kill as many as you want and rob as you want, but they dare not touch the real tough guys. Those who are easy to rob have their pockets cleaner than their faces. With supplies and food becoming increasingly scarce, everyone is looking forward to going home.
It is said that a sentence highly praised by everyone in the world channel is: I can sacrifice my life to go home. I hope that there will be players who fight to the end and take me home. Everyone is determined to kill pirates. Even if we really can't go back in the end, we have tried hard. Life is not in vain, and the game is not in vain!
After listening to this, Qiao Sheng felt that the chicken soup tasted really good. Drinking more would make him more energetic to kill the enemy.
Players are changing, and the game settings are also slowly changing. I don't know when it started, but pirates no longer act alone. You can no longer encounter one or two pirate ships before, and all pirate ships start with five.
This situation means that if the fleet is small, you will be attacked passively, especially if the pirate ship is large, there are many pirates, and there are few players, so you can't escape the pirates.
So out of helplessness, many players gathered together, eating and drinking separately, but drifting in the sea in the same direction, in order to prevent getting separated, they are tied to their own ships with ropes.
After clearing the pirate ship, the materials obtained are divided equally according to the number of people who contributed, which is fair and reasonable.
Throughout the autumn, with the joint efforts of the players, Qiao Sheng and his team exchanged 533 pirate base flags, just over half of them, with 466 pirate islands left to deal with.
"It's really exhausting. There are more than 500 pirate islands, and we have only cleared a fraction of them, just three! Usually we clean up pirate ships and eavesdrop on pirate communications, and we also have to prepare canned food for the players who are on the front line. We are really logistics personnel." Xia Beibei leaned on the sofa, hugging and rubbing Diudiu, who had grown up a lot.
"This is a case of heroes not being able to use their skills. Let's not say that we only cleaned up three of them. They are usually used as summoned beasts. It's a waste of time to go back and forth, but everything else is fine." Lin Haiyang was busy rebuilding the kang with Li Mu.
This time, because there were so many people, they expanded the area of the kang a lot. When the time comes, they can plant during the day and rest together at night.
Considering the current consumption of canned food, this planting is really urgent. The cold-resistant plants in the planting pots on the three-story cabin have already been planted.
In addition to the greenhouse where the four of them lived, a heated kang with a greenhouse was built in Xia Beibei's cabin, which was specially used for planting. Although canned vegetables and fruits tasted okay, they were not as delicious as freshly grown ones. Life was already very difficult, and we couldn't let ourselves suffer.
As for the early pickling of pickled cabbage, it was a job that had more help. Now Lin Haiyang is the chef in the kitchen most of the time, and Qiao Sheng just helps out on weekdays,
which is very easy. But the good cooks on the stove really couldn't do the job of pickling vegetables. The four of them loved to eat pickled cabbage, so Qiao Sheng rolled up his sleeves again and started washing the cabbage.
Xia Beibei was not idle. She prepared the salt early. Lin Haiyang helped to move it around and put it into the big water tank.
Li Mu was also very busy. He had fewer opportunities to go to the island recently. For example, the stock of wild boar meat was getting less and less. Canned food could not only be vegetables and fruits, so now he was studying the pirates' telegrams and fishing.
When winter came, they put on warm cotton clothes as soon as possible, made a fire to warm up the greenhouse, and then moved their own blankets in.
This time, the warmest place at the head of the kang was reserved for Xia Beibei. Qiao Sheng slept next to her. In the middle was a newly built large kang table. This time, the kang was not only longer, but also wider, so the kang table could accommodate four people sitting cross-legged on all sides, so that they would not be crowded when eating.
Then it was Lin Haiyang. Li Mu slept at the end of the kang. To keep warm, the wooden wall was still covered with a layer of animal fur. This time it was not limited to rabbit fur, but also bear fur. It must be guaranteed that their greenhouse would not be exposed to the wind and would be absolutely warm.
After entering winter, the players were wearing heavy clothes and had difficulty moving, which provided convenience for the local NPC pirates. They chased the player fleet several times. Qiao Sheng and his team would rush over to rescue them when they met them.
This happened more and more, and they became the legendary four heroes who saved people from fire and water in the world channel.
Xia Beibei once thought that the word "abandon" was too harsh. Later, she thought that it was better than some kind of male and female pirates. She couldn't ask too much of other players. Maybe the four heroes were thought up by others after racking their brains.
I originally thought that they would just sit there doing logistics work and spend the rest of their gaming life leisurely, but I didn't expect that Li Mu suddenly got a clue one day and deciphered most of the pirates' secret messages, making it easier and faster for them to find the pirate island.
