Tianxuan and the other children, including Feiyan, didn't think the problem lay with Hong Xiaoduo at all.
"It's okay, it's normal not to know these things since it's your first time," Hong Xiaoduo comforted Tianxuan after rinsing her mouth with tea.
The seafood was very fresh, and it would be even more perfect if you didn't find any sand in it.
After dinner, Hong Xiaoduo said she was sleepy and went into her tent early to lie down.
"Old man? Are you there? I need to talk to you." Hong Xiaoduo called out anxiously as soon as she entered the space.
I need to ask him to help me find out how those oysters were processed so that there's no sand or mud when I cook them. I was planning to stay here a few more days and enjoy all the seafood before leaving.
After calling out several times without getting a response, I turned around and found that the water sample I had taken was gone; it must have been taken by Old Man Luo.
She found paper and pen in the room, wrote down the questions she wanted to ask, and was about to leave when she suddenly noticed the cabinet-style display screen with its indicator lights flashing.
Yes, I've already completed the first task of collecting eight water samples. Now it's time to show the second task.
"Is it going to make me search for soil samples everywhere?" she thought to herself as she walked in front of the monitor.
I reached for the power button and it turned on instantly.
Letters pop up on the screen: Congratulations on successfully unlocking the first task.
Hong Xiaoduo clicked on the next page, wanting to see the next task, but unexpectedly, the content displayed on the next page was not a task at all.
Welcome to the Exchange System!
What? I can redeem it now?
Hong Xiaoduo was a little confused looking at the content displayed on the page.
She remembers that the first task displayed was to collect eight water samples.
Since it shows the first task, it means there are follow-up tasks, such as the second and third tasks.
Hong Xiaoduo scratched her chin, looking at the screen and wondering if she had misunderstood something.
So, after unlocking the first task, they can start redeeming items?
Then, after unlocking the second mission, there's a special redemption slip for the second mission?
Huh? That's pretty good. I just don't know if the content of the first task's redemption interface will become invalid after the second task is unlocked, or if it will be merged into the second task's redemption interface?
Hong Xiaoduo clicks to turn to the next page:
Exchange value display bar?
Hong Xiaoduo looked at the vertical bar icon that appeared on the right side of the screen. It had a number next to it. When it was full, it was 100. Now, the red bar had moved up to the 60 position, which meant that it was 40 points away from being full.
What does this mean? Hong Xiaoduo was eager to know, and finally found the user manual on the interface:
1. For each task unlocked, the system will reward you with energy based on the difficulty of that task.
Second, once the red energy bar is full, it will upgrade to level two energy exchange, with the energy bar turning orange. Level three energy bars are yellow, level four energy bars are green, and so on.
There are seven levels of energy bars, with red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple representing the highest level. The seventh level energy bar is purple.
Third, the higher the level of the energy bar, the higher the level of items that can be exchanged.
IV. The system will automatically replenish the items that have been redeemed.
5. The faster and more tasks are unlocked, the faster the energy bar will level up.
Hong Xiaoduo looked at the exchange instructions on the screen and read them carefully three times, analyzing them. In other words, if she wanted the energy bar to quickly reach the highest level of purple, it was best not to exchange any energy easily in the early stages and to avoid consuming exchange energy.
Furthermore, if you want to quickly upgrade to the highest level of exchange energy, you need to actively complete tasks to accumulate exchange energy!
Having understood all this, Hong Xiaoduo clicked on the next page, which this time led to the redemption homepage.
The left side displays the exchange value, and the right side shows the list of exchangeable items.
There are seven major categories: clothing, food, housing, transportation, electronic devices, security equipment, and entertainment.
Clicking on the details reveals various styles and fabrics of traditional costumes and accessories.
The food items on display include instant noodles, snail rice noodles, potato chips, barbecue seasoning, hot pot base, barbecue grills, and local specialty snacks.
Among these items, some foods indicate that she can only eat them in her space when she's craving them, and they can't be taken out of the space, such as snail rice noodles!
The dwellings depict thatched houses, mud-brick houses, courtyards with blue bricks and green tiles, pavilions and towers.
This is to prevent her from having nowhere to stay temporarily when she encounters night or bad weather on the road. The system will automatically interfere with the perception of others, making them think that the building was always there.
If people stop living there and the building disappears, it won't attract anyone's attention.
The display shows a carriage for limited-time use. Below, there is a small note stating that although it looks like a carriage, it is actually a gasoline-powered vehicle capable of reaching speeds of 120 km/h; the carriage exterior is merely a decoy.
Hong Xiaoduo couldn't hide her excitement when she saw this; this was just too awesome!
Keep scrolling down; the electronic device details include time-limited monitors, time-limited alarms, and time-limited recorders.
The security equipment includes tranquilizer guns, smoke grenades, and stun batons. These can only be used when she is in danger.
Entertainment options included movies, a television, karaoke, billiards, and more! However, she only used these entertainment options when she was bored, and only when she was alone in her space.
Finally, it should be noted that as the energy bar is upgraded, the items available for exchange will not increase in number or variety.
Seeing this, Hong Xiaoduo couldn't help but rub her hands together. With the blessing of these things, her life here would be much easier!
Oh dear, what should she do? She wanted to start exchanging for some things right now, like food.
However, I also want to conserve my exchange energy so that I can upgrade to the highest level of exchange bar as soon as possible, so that I can exchange for the most useful items at crucial moments.
This is the first time Hong Xiaoduo has ever sincerely wanted to thank Old Man Luo at the Science and Technology Museum; he handled the matter very well.
He was so considerate of her, providing her with all sorts of conveniences, that she almost wanted to forgive him for tricking her.
Despite her excitement, Hong Xiaoduo didn't impulsively exchange the items immediately. Instead, she wrote "thank you" on a note.
After leaving the space, Hong Xiaoduo closed her eyes to rest, thinking that no matter what, she should exchange for one thing tomorrow and see if it went smoothly.
I'll figure out how to exchange the rest later.
Suddenly, I realized that in my excitement I hadn't looked for the page to continue with the task.
Looking at the time displayed on her bracelet, Hong Xiaoduo realized it wasn't time for the children to come back to bed yet. So she tried to enter the space again, but she couldn't. Could it be that she couldn't enter the space continuously?
Hong Xiaoduo pounded her forehead in frustration. What a blunder! How could she have been so impulsive? Was it because she got too excited seeing the exchange system...?
