Chapter 23 First Settlement Day Ranking Reward Easter Egg
On the day of the settlement, the temperature inside instantly rose back to 15 degrees Celsius. The plants outside also regained their vitality overnight. If it weren't for the ice and snow still not fully melted on the ground, Yu Luowei would have thought the previous cold was an illusion.
[Congratulations to all the survivors for successfully surviving until the end of the first season!
On the Settlement Day, there are no disasters or monsters, so everyone can enjoy themselves and gather supplies. All plants planted during the season, regardless of how far they are from maturity, can be harvested on the Settlement Day.
This season's ranking list will be announced soon, and the corresponding rewards will be distributed via email in 10 minutes. Please check your email.
Additionally, survivors who have severely damaged their pristine environment will have a chance to repair it: plots of land will be unlocked in the Points Mall for a limited time. Survivors can spend their points to purchase plots of land of varying sizes, placing them in their pristine environment to repair the damage. Please cherish this opportunity!
I wish you all a happy Settlement Day! We look forward to seeing you all on the next Settlement Day!
Since the survival rate in this area exceeds 50%, a special reminder for the next season's disasters: Spring is hazy.
The current number of people in this area is [52467/100000]. Nearly half of them died in the first season. I don’t know how many people will be left when someone completes the game.
The sadness of the rabbit's death and the fox's grief lasted only a moment before it was dispelled by the arrival of the leaderboard reward email. Yu Luowei finally determined that he would not become that "rabbit".
There are five first places in the six leaderboards, one in the top ten, and one for obtaining five supply chests (red) and five supply chests (orange) (first place is red, top three are 10 oranges, and top ten are five oranges). In addition, Yu Luowei also triggered a hidden rule:
[Getting two No. 1 rankings triggers Easter Egg 1, getting four No. 1 rankings triggers Easter Egg 2, and getting six No. 1 rankings triggers Easter Egg 3.]
After clicking to receive the Easter egg, Yu Luowei had a small hammer and a colorful real "Easter egg" in his hand, with the words "Hit Me" written in big letters on the egg.
Yu Luowei was so curious that she threw away the red treasure chest she got for the first time and chose to attack the egg first.
After a few hard hits, the eggshell shattered, releasing a dazzling light. Even though Yu Luowei had prepared herself mentally, she was still startled by the light. After waiting for a while, the light completely dissipated, and Yu Luowei was able to see the true appearance of the Easter egg reward: a golden trumpet and a golden treasure chest.
After all this time, the point is still the box. Might as well just give it to her directly. Why bother with all this nonsense? Is this alien system's formalism so serious? Yu Luowei was simply full of complaints and had nowhere to vent.
Complaints aside, the reward still had to be accepted. Yu Luowei first stretched his claws towards the golden treasure chest - and then sadly found that it could not be opened:
[Special Treasure Chest (Gold): Requires a gold key to unlock.
Note: Can be obtained from Easter egg rewards. 】
Yu Luowei was too tired to even complain. The system's routine was really getting deeper and deeper. She now seriously suspected that Easter Egg 1 was a trumpet and a golden key, and Easter Egg 3 was also a trumpet, a golden treasure chest, and a golden key.
Unable to open it, Yu Luowei simply put the box into the last slot on her bracelet, out of sight, out of mind. As for the speaker, although it had a physical form, it was actually a prop used in the chat channel. After using it, one could pin a text edited by the user to the top of the chat channel for 12 hours. Yu Luowei didn't have any information that was so important, so she put it away.
Fortunately, the supply treasure chest (red) does not require a key, otherwise Yu Luowei would really be troubled by the five red keys.
Opening these ten high-level treasure chests, Yu Luowei harvested a wealth of high-level supplies, most importantly the power core and level-five construction blueprints, essential for upgrading a level-five shelter. Next up were arrow towers, which, along with the two previously mentioned, now completed the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, wind, and thunder. There were also one hundred corresponding crystals, along with corresponding and standard arrow blueprints, and even a red-level universal arrow blueprint, completely resolving Yu Luowei's inability to craft arrows with other attributes. There were also four advanced planter boxes, an upgraded version of the planter boxes. Of course, Yu Luowei couldn't discern the advanced features beyond their size.
The rest was a level 4 fence blueprint, a level 4 trap blueprint, and various item cards. Yu Luowei first picked out the bracelet expansion card and the warehouse expansion card and used them immediately, expanding the item slots of both the bracelet and the warehouse by five. There was also a bracelet capacity increase card, which, after using it, raised the maximum slot capacity of the bracelet to 999. As for the item upgrade cards and material selection cards, there were about ten of each. Yu Luowei felt like he had struck gold.
Based on previous experience, Yu Luowei directly used the prop upgrade card on the four high-level planting boxes, obtaining a 16×16 farmland. However, the current base could not accommodate it, so Yu Luowei temporarily put it in the warehouse and decided to decide where to put it after the base was upgraded.
Current farmland can also be upgraded to 9×9 intermediate farmland using an upgrade card, without affecting the plants already planted. Seeing that the intermediate farmland should be able to be placed, Yu Luowei directly upgraded it, then harvested what needed to be harvested, replanted what needed to be planted, and spread fertilizer.
While his hands kept moving, Yu Luowei's mind was also busy. This special tip, which could be said to have cost a life, was a bit too abstract. Yu Luowei searched all the knowledge in his mind and could only think of it as related to growth. After all, spring is the season of rebirth for all things. However, he was not sure whether it was animals or plants.
The power of one person is ultimately limited, so Yu Luowei decided to check out the crowdfunding channel. As soon as she opened the manual, she was bombarded with hundreds of private messages. She clicked on a few random strangers' messages and saw they were all trying to curry favor. Yu Luowei then remembered that today's rankings would reveal names and area codes. Looking at the endless stream of private messages, Yu Luowei immediately switched to the chat channel.
The channel is now full of discussions about the rankings, especially her number one on the top five, which is definitely the "topic center"
Hezhou: Someone tell me I'm reading this correctly! Five of the six rankings have the same person at the top, and they're from our district. That's incredible! It really makes us proud!
[Zhang Jing: You're so strong, you're already level 4. I just reached level 2 by killing a snow monster.]
[Su Yu: Is this number one on the list the same person who processed meat on the public screen a few days ago? I even placed an order the day before yesterday, and wow, I actually got to eat the meal that the boss made for me!]
[Jiang Zhe: I bought some too. I declare that I will offer the remaining dishes!]
Ma Ming: Who is this Yu Luowei? Why haven't I heard of him before on Blue Star? How could such an unknown figure possibly be number one on the list?
[Fang Min: You're saying that, I thought we'd left the survivor game and returned to Blue Star. Are you a household registration robot? Everyone on Blue Star has seen it.]
Liu Hai: Boss, you're leveling up so fast, there must be some secret, right? Why don't you tell us the secret so we can level up too?
[Chen Yu: Wow, I finally saw a living freeloader!]
[Liu Hai: Who's asking me to get a free monster? I didn't ask the boss to divide up her supplies. You saw that when the survival rate in the entire zone exceeds 50%, there will be a special notice. I'm doing this for the sake of the boss and everyone in the zone!]
As soon as these words came out, they were instantly approved by many people. Yu Luowei also felt a little supportive in her heart, but she certainly couldn't tell the truth. She could only be vague and give some vague information:
Yu Luowei: I'm not sure how to level up, I just enjoy training and killing monsters. But whether it's training or killing monsters, it's best to do it within your capabilities. If you can't defeat them, run away quickly. Your life is more important. You can start with ordinary animals and try to save some food. Don't get hurt and blame her again.
Wu Moli: I think what the boss said makes sense. I'm too timid to kill monsters. I usually just look for treasure chests nearby. I'm still only level one. Tomorrow I'll overcome my fear and start killing monsters!
Liu Ming: This information should be known to everyone, so why is the boss still hiding it?
Zhang Jing: What's the point of hiding it? It's already great that the boss is willing to tell us. Besides, this information wasn't given by the system, it was just everyone's guess. Now that the boss has said it, doesn't it just confirm it?
Ma Ming: Why are you acting like a bootlicker again? Do people know you? You're speaking up for them like that.
Another quarrel started in the channel, but Yu Luowei was unaware of what was said. After sending that message, she went to check the entire ranking list.
Several familiar names were on the district leaderboards. Jin Yu was second on the progress list, Zhao Linlang was 45th, and Fang Min was 58th. On the combat power list, Jin Yu was third, Zhao Linlang was 6th, and Fang Min was 79th. On the overall leaderboard, these individuals were also in the top 1,000, just further back. The overall combat power top ten and the progress top ten were similar, just with a few names changed. Progress was fine, and the top ten were all level 4 shelters. Bases ranged from level 4 to level 3, with the second-highest combat power ranking only at level 3.
Yu Luowei flipped through the overall rankings and finally found a few familiar names. It was a pity that they couldn't chat across regions, but knowing that they were still alive gave Yu Luowei great comfort.
Following the rankings, I sent a message to Fang Min:
Fang Min: Oh my god! Weiwei, you're amazing! I knew you were strong! Hahahahaha, I'm so lucky to know such an amazing person!
Yu Luowei: Okay, okay, thank you! How's your food? Is it enough? Do you want me to make you some more? What do you think of that tip?
Fang Min: Ah, Weiwei, your question really hits the nail on the head. This system used to give very direct information, so why is it so subtle now? I've been thinking about it for a long time and still can't figure it out.
Yu Luo'e: I do have some ideas, but I'm not sure. I should be able to confirm them tomorrow. I'll tell you then!
Yu Luowei wasn't used to the kindness shown by others, so she had to change the subject for the time being. She also found Zhao Linlang's private message and, after thanking her, discussed the new tip with her.
As for Jin Yu, he was truly resilient. Yu Luowei was actually quite impressed by him. He'd ignored her all day, teased her in the chat yesterday, and now he'd messaged her today asking if she'd be willing to be the honorary leader of the mutual aid group. Yu Luowei still ignored him. If she hadn't blocked him and couldn't see his messages in the public chat, Jin Yu might have sent another disaster warning tomorrow. Yu Luowei had already blocked him.
Because the real owner hadn't reappeared, the discussion in the channel gradually shifted to this new tip after a long argument. It's just that those who really had ideas were unwilling to speak out, and those who were willing to speak out were those who had no ideas and only speculated. Therefore, all kinds of opinions emerged at once. Some guessed the same as Yu Luowei, some thought it would rain all the time, and some naively imagined that the disaster wouldn't be very serious starting tomorrow, and that the next season might be a season of benefits. After all, it's spring, and that sounds beautiful. This statement was also agreed by many people. Although it was the 26th century, the people of Blue Star still had the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm.
After scrolling through the chat channel for a long time, she closed it after confirming there was no useful information. It was only a little after ten o'clock, there were no monsters outside, and resources were plentiful. Yu Luowei was ready to go out exploring, trying to upgrade both her shelter and the fence today. For the gold treasure chest, she had to maintain her ranking next season and get the Easter egg reward.
