Luo Xinglan took out the constant temperature bead and the upgrade card.
[Thermostatic Bead: A bead that keeps the temperature of your home constant, protecting you from harsh weather and having a chance to mutate plants and animals. It can be upgraded.]
[Thermostatic Bead Upgrade Card: Upgrades the thermostatic bead; after use, you can select the direction of the bead's mutation.]
Sure enough, the direction of the temperature-controlled bead's mutation can be controlled artificially.
Luo Xinglan immediately used the upgrade card.
A shimmering light appeared before my eyes, presenting three choices.
Please select the direction of change of the thermostatic bead:
[1. Animal growth rate is accelerated, up to 5 times faster, currently up to 1 time faster!]
2. Plant growth speed is increased, up to 5 times faster, currently up to 2 times faster!
[3. Pets automatically gain experience points, with a maximum of 500 experience points per day, currently capped at 100 experience points per day!]
Please make a selection within three minutes; otherwise, the system will select one randomly for you!
Luo Xinglan carefully reviewed all three options and found them all to be excellent! She wanted them all!
But she could only choose one, and she had to make a decision.
After much thought, Luo Xinglan chose to let her pet automatically gain experience points, so that her little divine bird would get stronger every day!
Although you can only gain 100 experience points per day, it takes 700 experience points for the little divine bird to level up from level 6 to level 7, and the higher the level, the more experience points it needs.
100 experience points may not seem like much, but over time, the cumulative effect of 100 experience points per day can be quite substantial!
Without further hesitation, Luo Xinglan decisively chose the third option.
[Thermostatic Bead successfully upgraded! Current Thermostatic Bead Level: 1. Mutation Direction: Pets will automatically gain experience points (maximum 500 experience points per day, currently 100 experience points per day!)]
The constant temperature bead is a bead that emits a soft glow, somewhat like a luminous pearl. Luo Xinglan placed it in the living room.
After finishing, she began to consider ways to further improve the warmth and coziness of her home.
After placing the decorative lights in the courtyard, her home's coziness level has now increased to 762.
Since the rankings haven't been released yet, she doesn't know exactly where 762's warmth score ranks, but she estimates it's definitely in the top 200.
But her goal is to be number one, so she can't afford to relax.
Luo Xinglan went to check on her loot from opening the gold chests that morning. She had only opened the chests while doing the quest and hadn't yet looked at what was inside.
She went to the pavilion and packed everything from the box into her backpack, mostly spirit stones and other materials. One thing that surprised Luo Xinglan was the [Outdoor Barbecue Grill Blueprint].
She immediately made the barbecue grill, and to her surprise, it also increased the coziness level by 20 points, bringing the coziness level to 782 points.
Luo Xinglan thought, let's have an outdoor barbecue tonight, there's plenty of porcupine meat.
Having made up her mind, she checked the time; it was only 2 p.m. She still had a few exploration cards, but she didn't plan to go out exploring anymore today.
Let's just get ready to have a barbecue.
To have barbecue, pork alone is definitely not enough. Luo Xinglan went to the mall again and found that there were many ingredients, including pork, lamb, beef, and leafy greens, but the quantities were not large and the prices were shockingly high.
For example, lettuce—one head of lettuce costs 200 gold coins! It's more expensive than meat.
There are also other ingredients, which are not cheap either.
The price alone shows that not many survivors can grow vegetables.
Luo Xinglan searched for cucumbers and found that only three people were selling them. The quantity was small, but the price was quite high, with each cucumber costing 100 gold coins.
Even at this price, there are still quite a few people scrambling to buy it.
After all, people who spend a long time at sea are very deficient in vitamins, and they mainly get their vitamins from vegetables.
So even if vegetables are a bit more expensive, you still have to replenish them regularly, and you have to buy them even if the price is a little higher—compared to life, those few gold coins are nothing.
Luo Xinglan has a lot of vegetables stored in her spatial storage cabinet. With No. 1 as her good helper, she doesn't have to lift a finger to have fresh vegetables to eat.
Luo Xinglan bought some vegetables she didn't have, and then put some more vegetables on the shelves before closing the online store.
Then, she started marinating the meat and washing the vegetables, working until almost six o'clock.
Before the frog cub even left the house, Luo Xinglan asked it, "Little one, are you going out today?"
Baby Frog: "We're not going out today, we'll go tomorrow!"
Luo Xinglan was relieved: "Okay, we'll start the barbecue in a bit."
If the frog goes out, it might not be able to eat in peace. It's good that it doesn't go out, so it can enjoy its food properly.
With the vegetables and meat prepared, Luo Xinglan began grilling the meat. Soon, the aroma of charred meat filled the entire raft.
The wild giant ram stared at the roasted meat, swallowing hard: "Is it cooked? Is it cooked?"
Luo Xinglan: "Wait a little longer."
Five seconds later, the wild giant sheep asked again, "Is it cooked? Is it cooked?"
Luo Xinglan: "Soon."
Three seconds later, the wild giant sheep asked again, "Is it cooked? Is it cooked?"
Luo Xinglan got annoyed by its questions, glared at it, and saw it drooling all over the ground, leaving her speechless.
Why is this sheep so greedy?
The barbecue was cooked, so she divided it among the little ones first, and then continued grilling.
The wild giant ram stretched its neck: "Where's mine? Why isn't mine here?"
Luo Xinglan: "Wait a minute!"
The three little guys have small appetites and get full after eating a little, but the wild giant sheep eats a lot. If we feed it first, the rest of them will go hungry.
