Doomsday: Unlimited upgrades to the shelter

Chapter 220 Collecting Seashells
It was just dawn, and Xie Yannan couldn't wait to summon Shiliu and Xiaoxiao to go out together, planning to dive to the bottom of the lake early.

Because he was upgraded to a fourth-order human yesterday, he used to sleep eight hours a day, but now he sleeps six hours full of energy, and walks with wind.

Not only that, his hearing has also become quite acute, and he can clearly hear even the sound of leaves falling to the ground and rubbing against the ground.

The destination was clear. Xie Yannan did not wear a whale suit this time and dived directly to the bottom of the lake in one breath.

Because he had just upgraded to a fourth-level human, his speed even underwater was much faster.Shiliu and Xiaoxiao couldn't keep up with his speed, so Xie Yannan could only drag them down together.

When I came here yesterday, even if Xiaoxiao turned on the light, the deeper she dived, the less and less she could see the things below, but after the upgrade, Xie Yannan could basically distinguish large objects in the turbidity, so that she would not touch them. Encountered some strange floating objects.

This time, Xie Yannan has been driving the infrasonic wave made by Ma Wu since he entered the water, so he can occasionally see that kind of small bug floating in front of his eyes, and he doesn't feel like being pulled on his body.

After stepping on the bottom of the lake with both feet, Xie Yannan realized that this is the normal lake bottom, with soft soil and a little stickiness.

Step on it one deep and one shallow, and occasionally let the foot sink deeply, and occasionally step on the stone surface.

It's just that at the bottom of this muddy lake, Xie Yannan couldn't help but find it difficult to find the small shells in the system.

Hey!
"Is it this?" Sixteen picked up a bright object on the ground, a transparent shell, only the size of a thumbnail.

Xie Yannan took a look, his hands trembling a little, "It's indeed this thing, I didn't expect it to be so small."

He smiled. He had seen the stars on the ground a long time ago and thought they were just abnormal sand. He didn't expect it to be such a small shell.

However, the system only allowed him to collect 500, but there are such faint stars everywhere under the soft soil, and there must be tens of thousands of them.

Xie Yannan lowered his head and thought for a moment, planning to recycle all of them, maybe there are other uses.

But now there is a problem, that is, the system will not provide recycling tasks for the tasks issued by the system. If they think that they are recycling on the ground, it will be a year of the monkey!

"sixteen……"

"I see."

Before Xie Yannan could say anything, Shiliu took the lead and said, "I'll be fine if I come. Apart from not being able to fight or heal, I'm pretty good at everything else."

Shiliu scratched his head in embarrassment, he specialized in surgery.

not bad.

"You forgot that each item has a different frequency. I just need to use their frequency and wavelength to collect them all together."

Xie Yannan knew that Shiliu was very good at recognizing wavelengths and frequencies, but he didn't expect to be able to show his skills in collecting things.

"I can automatically generate absorbers with the same frequency, but there are so many here, you have to prepare a container for me, otherwise where will I collect them?"

Shiliu simply gestured with his hands. It must be a bag with a capacity of at least several cubic meters.

The bag is a small thing, after all, it can be called directly from the system, but these shellfish, because they are all living things, cannot be stored in the system, and they have to be moved back by themselves at that time.

Xie Yannan paused, and retrieved the three largest nylon bags from the system. Watching Shiliu transform his hands into inverted funnel-shaped absorbers, he pointed them at the bottom of the lake and began to absorb them.

Wherever it went, the soil did not fluctuate significantly, but the shells were absorbed into the funnel.

After the funnel was full, Shiliu poured the shells of the funnel into the nylon bag again.

In this matter, Xie Yannan was just laying hands on Shiliu.

He once tried to pick up shells from the soil, but found that it was easy to get the dirt into the nails, and every time he bent down to resist the pressure of the water to pick up a shell, Shiliu had sucked a full box.

In the end, he simply followed behind Shiliu and helped him pick his pockets.

The bottom of the lake is very wide, level with the edge of the lake, and these shimmering shells are basically scattered throughout the bottom of the lake.

There were more and more pockets to be collected, Xie Yannan could only make a simple mark at the bottom of the lake, telling Xiaoxiao to stay by and not leave, and he followed Shiliu to collect them non-stop.

Because he was in a deep lake, Xie Yannan unexpectedly discovered that Ji's skin could still emit a faint light, occasionally lighting up the way forward.

I didn’t expect high-level humans to be so useful. They are only at level [-] and can already survive in the water. So wouldn’t level [-] humans be able to fly into the sky? !

Even with this collection, the efficiency was accurate and fast. It took three people four or five hours to complete the collection.

But everyone seemed exhausted.

By the time Xie Yannan carried several large bags of shells onto the jumping car, it was already completely dark.

However, it is good to have a car, and the lighting of the jumping car is also quite good. Once the lights are turned on, the road ahead can be seen clearly.

And the speed is so fast that ordinary monsters can't keep up at all, so there is no need to worry about safety issues.

Xie Yannan fell asleep directly on the vibrating car. Xiaoxiao seemed to be in a semi-repair state, and only sixteen people were still driving.

We arrived at the shelter quickly and the journey was uneventful with no problems.

It was only when Xie Yannan got off the car that he remembered that he had collected at least tens of thousands of them, but the system never reminded him that the task had been completed.

Is it because I didn't save it into the system?

Xie Yannan picked one up and looked at it carefully.

The seashell was still half-open. Occasionally, the tentacles inside the shell slightly stretched out, but they soon felt the foreign object and retracted.

Such a cute thing, do you want to kill it and store it in the system?
Although Xie Yannan is now able to deal with similar bad guys, but this little thing is not at fault.

He stood there for a moment, and Zeng Rui happened to pick some medicine and passed by.

"This is...why does this shell look so familiar?"

He also picked up one, and while looking at it, he was full of praise, "This is a deep-sea shellfish, and this kind of shellfish looks small. Such a small shell is at least several decades old."

Zeng Rui explained that this thing is as long-lived as a tortoise, the only difference is that they will only increase their hardness with time, unlike tortoises, which will grow up.

"So, what's the use of this little thing?"

Xie Yannan has worked so hard to move for so long, so what he cares most about is naturally his usefulness.
