Xu Xin immediately returned to the tree house and started the electric water pump.
There was a humming sound, and within seconds, the electric pump pumped water into the tree house.
Not knowing how long the snow would last, Xu Xin started storing water.
He made one large bucket after another, pumped up the water, filled the buckets, and saved the extra space on the first floor of the tree house.
Soon, the first layer was filled with water.
That should be enough.
The small screen on the electric water heater lit up, displaying two numbers.
A percentage, a temperature.
The percentage is obviously the capacity, which is increasing rapidly. The temperature shows 6°C.
After a dozen seconds, the capacity of the electric water heater was displayed as 100%, and the water pump automatically stopped pumping water.
Xu Xin started the water heater and the temperature display slowly rose.
Not bad, comfortable!
He then connected the water pump to the toilet's water tank, and connected the drain outlet to a pipe, which led out to a deeper place under the tree house to discharge sewage.
Does this count as fertilizing the tree house?
Then, Xu Xin installed electric lights in each room, and made an electric oven and range hood to make the kitchen look a little more presentable.
After finishing all this, Xu Xin returned to the third floor, sat down heavily on the sofa, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
His tree house seemed to be self-sufficient, and it felt like he could live forever without leaving the house.
Is this what Fortress of Doom feels like?
He has weapons, energy, food, everything, and plenty of it.
This feels really good.
After doing all this, it was already getting dark, and the other members of the [Explorers] had also returned to the tree house one after another.
Xu Xin also immediately began to configure the power grid for them.
Ji Chaoyang had also returned to the tree house, and Xu Xin directly gave him the copper blocks.
He can also unlock the blueprint, so Xu Xin doesn't need to worry about it, he can just make it himself.
Meanwhile, people on the regional channel were starting to feel uneasy.
Because they could clearly feel that the temperature outside the tree house was dropping.
Indeed, during the day, the temperature is still six or seven degrees, and it can even reach about ten degrees at noon, but once it gets dark, the temperature is close to zero!
"Oh my god, it's really like what the boss said, we're going to enter a cold winter!"
"Thankfully, the bosses let us build the fireplace ahead of time and also let us chop down more trees. My current wood reserves are enough to keep me burning for a long time."
"I've cut down all the trees around here, and I've worn out several axes! I have plenty of energy, and I feel very safe."
"What are you so relieved about! Didn't the bosses say there would be another beast tide tomorrow?"
"I've already bought four crossbows. If any beasts dare to attack the tree house, I'll mow them down!"
"Four? Can I buy four? Damn, I only bought two?"
"Finally, I have meat to eat. I'm so craving it. And since it's so cold now, it must be able to keep for a long time. It's so comfortable!"
It seems that everyone in District 188 is basically ready.
Without control panels and power grids, their survival rate would definitely be much lower than that of the Explorers.
But there was no other way. They, the Explorers, had done their best by providing them with information and selling them the new repeating crossbows.
Li Wenxi should have dug up quite a bit of saltpeter ore today, which can be used to supply some to ordinary survivors.
Soon, Xu Xin configured the power grid for everyone in the [Explorers] and even made the electrical appliances they wanted.
Zhao Xiaochuan: "I'm now incredibly confident in resisting tomorrow's beast tide! Control panels, repeating crossbows equipped with explosive bolts, and high-voltage power grids. Who can break through my defenses? Not even Brother Xin or Brother Chaoyang!"
Li Wenxi: "How much mutant vine juice have you collected? I have over 10,000 kilograms of green-grade saltpeter."
Wang Lei: "What?! More than 10,000 kilograms?!"
Li Wenxi: "Oh, there are a lot of people here, and Xu Xin asked me to dig more, so I accidentally dug too much."
Xu Xin was also shocked.
He immediately looked at the blueprint for making explosives.
Small Explosives: Small explosives that explode on impact. They are quite powerful and can be used to craft explosive arrows and crossbow bolts. 20 Small Explosives requires 1kg of Vine Sap, 2kg of Saltpeter, and 20g of Charcoal.
Twenty small explosives, or twenty explosive crossbow bolts, require 2 kg of saltpeter, which means more than 10,000 kg of saltpeter. If there is enough vine juice, 100,000 explosive crossbow bolts can be made!
With so many explosive crossbow arrows, they could definitely share some with others to increase their survival rate.
but……
Xu Xin checked his vine juice.
Even though he hunted more than a hundred powerful mutant vines, and the vine juice he could obtain from each one was several times that of ordinary vines, even so, including what he had left over from before, he only had more than 800 kilograms of mutant vine juice in his hands.
To make 100,000 explosive crossbow arrows, you need at least 5,000 kilograms of vine juice!
Xu Xin: "I only have over 800 kilograms of vine juice."
Wen Guixin: "I have 2,300 kilograms in my hands now."
...Two thousand three hundred kilograms?
Xu Xin raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised but not shocked.
After all, she is Wen Guixin, the ceiling of her combat effectiveness.
The other members also burst out with the weight of the vine juice in their hands.
There are only more than 4,000 kilograms in total.
But it’s enough.
