Chapter 77: Day 2 of the Seventh Day of the Liesha Season
After all, it was just a small market among citizens, and the things sold were relatively common. Yu Luowei added a lot of decorations to his base and bought a piece of pet clothes for Ma Tuan.
After walking around for an hour, Ma Tuan became familiar with some people and was fed some snacks. Yu Luowei was about to leave when she was suddenly grabbed by a hand.
Yu Luowei looked in the direction of the hand and found that it was a strange girl whom she had never seen before. She must be a newcomer.
The girl led Yu Luowei to a flower bed. After confirming that no one was around, she mysteriously pulled a card from her bracelet and said, "You must be our city lord, right? This is the special building card I opened from the red treasure chest a while ago. But the system said I'm not the city lord, so I can't tell you what the specific building is. So I'm giving this card to you."
Yu Luowei was wary and didn't accept it immediately. Instead, she asked, "Are you just giving me this for free? Don't you want to be the city lord yourself? I'm not questioning you, but this is only the first day of the event. You still have a chance to get the city-building order."
The girl was silent for a moment before continuing, "Actually, I was originally from the Golden City. Um, a victim. I saw you kill those bad guys earlier."
Yu Luowei was shocked. She had only shown her face in front of Bobby and Jin Yu's group, and the others should have been unconscious at that time.
The girl also realized this and immediately explained, "I used a skill card to avoid them. I was planning to pretend to be unconscious and sneak out while they were exploring outside, but I didn't expect you to show up. You're so powerful, I guessed you must be number one on the battle power rankings."
"After you left, many of those who had escaped returned. They had gathered other victims and were trying to build up their power. I felt something was amiss, and since your city had a vacancy, I rushed over. This card must be quite high-level. Those people originally wanted to steal it, but I hid it with a hidden card, and they never found it. Consider this my way of thanking you."
After hearing her say this, Yu Luowei finally felt relieved to accept the card. However, she still transferred some points to the girl as compensation for getting the prop card.
Because of this incident, Yu Luowei took Ma Tuan to the processing center first. The special building card the girl gave was indeed of a high level. It was a Tree of Life, which could restore the physical and mental strength of citizens in the city. It was a public building.
Be careful of the monsters that might come to cause trouble at any time these days. This building came at the perfect time. Yu Luowei arranged this unexpected surprise and then took Ma Tuan back to sleep.
The second day of the event arrived quickly, and the citizens, full of energy, took their tools and went out to continue planting trees. After yesterday's incident and Yu Luowei's reminder, everyone brought at least two thermostatic suits. Yu Luowei also left the city, but she didn't plant trees. Instead, she moved the small pavilion where she had traded treasure chests with the animals to a place closer to the "construction site." She also renovated it, installed several portable air conditioners and fans inside, and used it as a temporary resting place.
Yu Luowei also prepared some iced drinks, some extra tools and seeds, so that others could not only rest and eat here, but also replace tools in time.
The beach chair set that was previously thought to be useless now came in handy. Yu Luowei made several sets in advance yesterday and put them out now, making this resting place more comfortable.
This beach umbrella also has a cooling effect, so it can be placed outside. Everyone praised this resting place, and their enthusiasm for work increased. So even though there were fewer people today, progress was still increased. Of course, Yu Luowei also participated a lot, but she only planted fruit trees that she liked to eat.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Yu Luowei asked Chen Yue to guard the rest area for her, and she returned to the snack bar early as usual. She first delivered dinner to Zhao Linlang and the patients who were staying in the hospital, and then began to prepare snacks in advance.
Yesterday, the snack shop was so busy that it even upgraded twice, adding a lot of items like rice noodles and hot dry noodles. Luckily, the insulated boxes also gained space with the grocery store upgrade.
By the time everyone returned, the place had become a buffet. Because of word of mouth from yesterday, there were even more customers today. Yu Luowei was so busy that she was flying, leaving afterimages with her hands.
As time passed, the crowds gradually thinned out, and Yu Luowei was finally able to take a breath. She now understood Su Tang very well; this was even more tiring than being outside.
But the good thing is that he earned a lot of points in the past two days. Combined with some of the points that had already been paid back in the loan system, Yu Luowei immediately upgraded Beicheng to level six.
The special building card obtained yesterday has a level linked to the city level. It has now been upgraded to level six, and the speed of recovering physical and mental strength has also increased by two times. As long as you enter the city, you can recover your mental strength.
The comfort level in Yu Luowei's shelter was already among the best, and with the addition of the Tree of Life, now just three hours in the shelter would be enough to restore all of Yu Luowei's mental strength.
However, she hadn't killed many monsters in the past two days, her mental strength hadn't decreased much, and she hadn't gained any treasure chests. Seeing that it was still early, Yu Luowei got on the bus, wanting to see (kill some) monsters at night.
Because the defensive power of the city walls would always decrease at night, Yu Luowei was very sure that monsters would appear. So she did not hesitate and directly cordoned off a space after leaving the city.
Instead of using his supernatural powers immediately, Yu Luowei first used his upgraded variant of ice magic on the undead monsters. The ice mist spread rapidly as soon as it touched the monsters, directly turning them into a large block of ice.
Yu Luowei was surprised. Before, she had always used skill cards and magic weapons to deal with these undead monsters. Ice magic could hardly freeze the monsters, but now, not only were they completely frozen, but Yu Luowei only needed to think about it in her mind and the ice would shatter directly.
Yu Luowei switched to fire magic again. As soon as he released the flames, the undead monsters stopped moving forward, as if they were a little afraid of the flames. Yu Luowei struck while the iron was hot and threw several fireballs at the undead monsters. The monsters tried to dodge, but the fireballs were so fast that many of them still couldn't avoid them.
As soon as the fireball touched the monster, it turned into a blazing flame. The monster screamed and then gradually disappeared into the air. After the monster disappeared, the flames gradually died out, and a familiar treasure chest appeared on the ground.
Looking around, a treasure chest appeared wherever a burned monster disappeared. Yu Luowei was very surprised. Could this be a 100% chance of a treasure chest dropping? She decided to use only fire magic from now on.
After fighting for a while, Yu Luowei discovered that not only would a treasure chest drop 100% of the time after using fire magic, but new undead monsters would no longer spawn in the area where fire magic had been used. So after killing all the monsters in this area, Yu Luowei collected all the treasure chests and returned to his base.
At this moment, they had obtained at least a hundred treasure chests. The first thing Yu Luowei did when he returned to the base was to open the boxes frantically.
Although the highest level treasure chest was purple, Yu Luowei still managed to get four equipment sets and five weapons due to the large number of them. However, the highest level was purple, so Yu Luowei planned to put it directly in the grocery store or find someone to sell it.
Other things include water and electricity cards (both personal and city), five pieces each for urban farmland, pasture, and fish ponds, various seeds, and various young animals.
Fortunately, the animals here are currently in the form of cards, otherwise her base really wouldn't be able to accommodate so many chickens, ducks, cows, sheep, etc.
There were a few item cards, mostly blank skill cards. There weren't many food or daily necessities. Yu Luowei packed up her things and went straight to learning the potion formulas, leaving the special recipes for Su Tang. Besides the normal crops and vegetables, the seeds also contained potion ingredients.
Yu Luowei sorted the seeds and upgraded all of his farmland to a high level, planning to plant normal crops in one plot and the raw materials for the medicine in the other. He also placed his old seeds in the newly sorted pile, intending to use them all in the urban farmland.
But there are too many farmlands, and I guess one person can't take care of it all. Once new people come, we'll have to recruit more people. Yu Luowei fell asleep while thinking about this.
On the third day of the event, Yu Luowei woke up and took a look at the rankings. The competition in the district individual rankings was fierce, but in the city rankings, Beicheng was far ahead. Because a district usually only had two or three cities, the city rankings only had an overall ranking.
Yu Luowei flipped through the pages. Since her psychic powers had returned, her memory had greatly improved. She found that the number of people in other cities had dropped a lot. It was estimated that they had used the city escape talisman.
In the North City event-only mall, there were two fewer escape talismans, but the number of people remained the same. It was already the third day, and it seemed strange that they had bought something and were not using it. Yu Luowei felt a little more vigilant.
But work still needed to be done. With only one point left to reach the leaderboard reward, Yu Luowei was filled with energy. There was only one water card left at the water pipe outside the city wall. Fortunately, she had taken a quick look before leaving, and Yu Luowei put four more in, preferring more to less.
Some people in the hospital today, though not fully recovered, participated. They felt that the final reward distribution should be tied to their contributions, and so they were discharged early. Others felt the same way, but their conditions were more serious, and even if Zhao Linlang reluctantly agreed to be discharged, they probably wouldn't be able to work for long.
Yu Luowei set up her resting place as usual. After two days of hard work, a forest had emerged in the desert outside the city. I don't know how the system's fertilizer works, but the trees I planted yesterday are already over three meters tall. Furthermore, the temperature in the forest is normal, unlike in the desert. The high temperatures here cause the constant temperature suits to consume energy much faster. Two pieces a day are far from enough.
