Chapter 69: Evolving Ice Magic on the Second Day of the Fiery Sand Season...
The upgrade went very smoothly, and Yu Luowei could feel her ice magic growing rapidly. After the upgrade was complete, Yu Luowei opened her personal information and was shocked:

Note: Congratulations on your successful evolution of Ice Magic. Please explore its uses on your own.
Not only had Ice Magic skipped level six and advanced directly to level seven, it had also successfully evolved into Cambrian Ice. This was another completely unfamiliar term. Yu Luowei found an open space in the base, hoping to test the power of the supposedly evolved Ice Magic.
The effect was indeed much stronger - the range of the ice prison and snowflake bomb doubled, and the entity condensed from ice and snow became harder and the color turned dark blue.
Furthermore, when magic was used on the left side of the base, the people on the left also felt a deep chill. The fountain inside the base also showed signs of freezing.
Yu Luowei could now freeze all the blood in monsters or survivors below level four into ice with a single thought, without resorting to any other weapons or skills. She was extremely satisfied, as her plan to secretly sabotage Jin Yu's city would now go much more smoothly.
After returning to the shelter, Yu Luowei first checked the chat history of the electronic butler. As expected, it attracted a large number of new people. It is estimated that many new citizens will be welcomed tomorrow.
Yu Luowei was very satisfied with this. Seeing that the private messages were getting fewer and fewer, she opened the trading market, removed all the original products from the shelves, and put some newly made ice cubes on the shelves.
Ice cubes are a way to cool down other people this season, while other goods, such as equipment materials, are added by Yu Luowei into the inventory of various stores in the city in different categories.
The number of goods in the trading market has become less and less after the establishment of cities. In contrast, there are several grocery stores within the cities. Citizens of other cities or ordinary survivors who have not joined the city have to spend more points to make purchases.
Thanks to the support of the citizens, the grocery store in North City has also reached level three, with more shelves and the qualification to join the trading market for others to buy. Yu Luowei looked at his own grocery store and the grocery stores in other cities. The biggest difference is that his own grocery store has many delicious foods made by Su Tang.
However, the quantity was not too large, because the taste was much better than the delicacies from Blue Star, so every time a new product was released, it was the first to sell out in the grocery store. As a result, the North City Grocery Store became the most popular grocery store.
Taking advantage of the empty shelves in the grocery store after some food had just been sold out, Yu Luowei also put some of her homemade delicacies on the shelves. She then went to the city warehouse and placed some ice cubes against the wall to prepare for the high temperatures ahead, then went to bed.
The next day, Yu Luowei was woken by the heat. Normally, the temperature inside the shelter was only around 10 to 20 degrees Celsius, so even though there was air conditioning, she rarely turned it on.
Yu Luowei, sweating profusely, looked up at the thermometer. The temperature inside the shelter had reached 28 degrees Celsius. Still covered in the quilt from her four-piece bed set, Yu Luowei naturally woke up from the heat.
Ma Tuan wasn't in bed either. Yu Luowei searched around and found that it had already gone to the basement and was sleeping against the wall. On the other side of the wall was the ice cube that Yu Luowei had placed.
After turning on the air conditioner and waiting for the sweat to subside a bit, Yu Luowei went out to check the empty plastic buckets that had been placed there last night. They were already full of rainwater. Just as he was about to move them into the shelter, a message popped up:
[Please note! These water sources have been contaminated by black air. If you want to drink them, please use special methods to purify them first!]
It was contaminated rainwater again. Luckily, it was discovered before moving in, so there was no need to expend unnecessary effort. Yu Luowei quickly posted this warning on the city's public channel, and told everyone that if their drinking water was truly insufficient, they could connect to the city's water source for five points a day.
Normally, water cards used at the base cost 8 points each, but Yu Luowei checked yesterday and saw that the price had increased to 16 points. They were also limited to 100,000 per zone. When Yu Luowei checked last night, there were only a little over 40,000 left.
However, even if you're connected to the city's water supply, you can't use it freely. The water supply is limited: 300L per person. If you live with family, the same applies: 5 points per person for 300L. This is enough for daily life, but if you want to save points and store some water for tomorrow, you need to conserve water.
However, these polluted rainwater can be concentrated to replace the water from the Black Abyss Lake as raw materials for making pharmacies. Therefore, Yu Luowei did not pour them out, but bought a concentrator from the points mall to concentrate them.
It was almost eight o'clock at this time, so Yu Luowei got on the bus and left the city.
The buses installed in the system are also very fast, faster than Yu Luowei, who has a speed of up to 89 points. Therefore, as long as there are not many people, Yu Luowei will also choose to take the bus.
When they left the city, it was still dark. Yu Luowei used his spatial ability to arm himself, walked to a place farther away from the city gate, and started fighting monsters.
I thought that with my fifth-level fire magic and seventh-level ice magic, I should be able to defeat monsters with ease, as if assisted by a god, but that wasn't the case. Perhaps it was because of the heavy rain with black energy last night, which had strengthened these monsters.
Fire magic is difficult to ignite them, and can only leave a black mark on their bodies. But ice magic can turn monsters into ice cubes and then shatter the monster's body.
Night monsters are the corpses of monsters that died during the day, and corpses have much less water than living monsters. Logically, fire magic should be more effective, but the opposite is true. Yu Luowei felt that although the level was also related, it was more due to the evolution of ice magic.
As the weather cooled, the monsters disappeared. Citizens gradually left the city, and Yu Luowei quickly put away his magic. However, the daytime temperature had risen significantly today. Citizens who went out changed into short-sleeved shirts and shorts.
Yu Luowei walked to the stream, and this short distance caused crystal clear beads of sweat to flow down her forehead.
While no one was around, Yu Luowei quickly condensed an ice fan and fanned it a few times, finally relieving the heat. Glancing at the stream ahead, Yu Luowei discovered that the water level had dropped by one-third.
Looking more closely, the stream water seemed to have become a bit dirtier, with a lot of algae appearing in the water. Whether it was due to the use in the past few days or the severe weather, Yu Luowei decided to switch to water cards from today.
Speaking of which, I wonder where the city's sewage has been discharged these days. Could it be discharged into the creek? Yu Luowei was a little worried. Just at this time, new citizens arrived. She quickly brushed two low-level dungeons, took some treasure chests, and returned to the city treatment center.
The temperature inside the city is lower than outside, thanks to Yu Luowei's meticulous planning. Yesterday, she discovered another city ranking indicator: the greening rate. This is why she added lawns and trees. The higher the greening rate, the stronger the city's temperature regulation.
In addition, Yu Luowei also upgraded the park with prop upgrade cards. The upgraded park has a larger area and more plants, which can help people who do not have air conditioning or do not have enough electricity cards to relieve the heat during the day.
After helping Lin Zhixia arrange the check-in of new citizens, Yu Luowei hurried to the third floor as the crowds gradually decreased. After the city was upgraded, the processing center was moved from the second floor to the third floor. The second floor is now a conference room and reception room.
After carefully examining the city map, Yu Luowei spotted a clue in the lower left corner—a sewage pool. Clicking on it, he saw it was already 80% full.
If it exceeds 100%, the sewage will be randomly discharged into the surrounding environment. Yu Luowei was glad that he had discovered it early and quickly spent a lot of money to buy a special building card at the Points Mall - the sewage treatment center, and temporarily placed it in the commercial district.
Actually, this building belongs in the Industrial Zone, but it's unlocked at Industrial Zone Level 5, so it's only half as efficient in other areas. However, the number of citizens today is approaching 800, and the residents are very satisfied with the various facilities. It's expected to be full by tomorrow, so we can continue upgrading.
Just as she was about to leave the map, Yu Luowei suddenly noticed her base flashing on the map. She clicked on it and found that it was the fountain inside her base that was glowing.
Yu Luowei originally thought that the fountain would automatically unlock once the base reached a certain level, but later, after learning that the fountain could slow down the rate of mental power loss, he became suspicious. Now he has confirmed that this is not available to everyone, but is one of his own ranking rewards.
At this time, the system prompts that if you use the prop upgrade card on the fountain, it can be turned into a special building card and moved to the public area of the city. It will not only provide the function of slowing down the rate of mental power loss for the entire city, but also reduce the temperature in the city.
As the city lord, Yu Luowei would enjoy double the buffs. No matter how you looked at it, it was a win-win situation. Yu Luowei chose the upgrade without hesitation and installed it next to the park.
Since the game was already open, Yu Luowei decided to go for a walk. By this time, many curious citizens had already been turned away, as well as some children. These were minors who had chosen to live with their parents at the beginning of the game.
Seeing Yu Luowei, everyone greeted the city lord, which made Yu Luowei feel a little embarrassed. Turning their attention to the fountain in front of them, the upgraded fountain was several times larger than the one in the base, and there was also a supporting open space around it, making it look like a fountain square.
Even though he had never used temperature control skills before, Yu Luowei could feel that the temperature around him was much lower than other areas in the city. And as soon as he got close, he felt refreshed.
Those who had just come out of the training grounds also rushed here after receiving the news from their friends. Seeing that more and more people were coming, Yu Luowei was also very satisfied with the fountain, so he returned to the base.
