Natural Disaster Game: Lead all mankind to survive to the end

"Do you want me to dig saltpeter? I've put this thing there for a long time and I haven't dug it yet."

After much thought, Su Ranran happily decided on her goal for today.

"I feel that no matter how hard I work, my career will be upgraded again after this period!"

Shu Lingyi was a little surprised: "If you upgrade to a senior miner, right? It's so fast! I'm still far from being upgraded."

In response to Shu Ling's envy, Su Ranran waved her hand casually, not forgetting to give Shu Ling a roll of her eyes: "I'm just kidding, I've been mining since I came to the territory. It can be said that I haven't done anything else."

"Every day I just dig, dig this and dig that. I feel like I can use a pickaxe to dig out the corners now, and I have to dig for them during demolition."

"..." Shu Lingyi fell silent.

What kind of metaphor is this? !

"Lao Ran, do you know what weird things you will say again?"

Su Ranran, who turned around and realized what she was talking about, giggled: "Hey, hey, mouth quickly. Hehe~"

As long as she continues to laugh, the atmosphere will not be awkward!

After Xin Qing got up, he rushed to the door of Shulingyi's house to eat. Shulingyi was already used to it, so he set up two square tables at the door of the house and everyone sat and cooked together.

"I have urged my senior brother to go out! He will be here soon!"

Shu Ling nodded, there should be many players arriving today, such as [Are you tired of continuous missions], [Yan Huan], [Bai Moxi] and so on...

She also specially reminded these players to be careful not to hit the north... Otherwise, it will be difficult to save them from the beast tide!

If you notice it from a distance, you have to take a slight detour, otherwise there will be too many monsters and it will be difficult for Lingyi and the others to rush in and bring the person back safely!

Thinking of this, Shu Lingyi had to ask Luo Zhiqing to make more hidden feather coats today.

Anyway, he killed a lot of birds and monsters last season, including quite a lot of owls and crows, so Luo Zhiqing didn't have to worry about lack of materials.

"It's a joke, I made a few more last night. When their relatives come over, if you can't avoid the monsters, just wear this. If you're careful, you should be able to get in front of you."

"Good good!"

Shu Ling looked at Xin Qing who was happily cooking at the side, and asked her out of curiosity: "Um, Xin Qing, do you know what the relationship between saltpeter and obsidian is?"

Shuling didn't know much about obsidian, so he couldn't imagine the relationship between saltpeter and obsidian.

I asked other people and no one gave an answer. Even many people on the public screen didn't even know what Obsidian was.

[Confused]: "My ID is my answer to this question."

[[-]]: "Idiot is confused, haha. Although I don't know, it involves a blind spot of knowledge."

[Cai Cai Cai Li]: "Before the boss asked this question, I didn't even know what obsidian was..."

[Simple but not simple]: "This seems to be a decoration? I seem to have heard of obsidian bracelets or something before."

The players on the public screen were at odds with her, and they debated for a long time with no result.

She also expected two top students to give a clear explanation, but in the end, none of them responded.

If you ask Xiao Ai about it, he won’t even tell you. It’s so appetizing that it’s absolutely disgusting.

[Don’t be ashamed to ask, someone will give you the answer. Anyway, you have the nerve to ask others what’s wrong! 】

Look at this confident tone, and her fist responded.

Xin Jing took a big bite of noodles and thought for a moment: "These two things should have nothing to do with each other..."

There was still something in her mouth and she spoke slowly. Just when Shu Lingyi was a little disappointed, she continued: "If you insist on making a connection, it's probably because saltpeter can make ice."

"how do I say this."

Shu Lingyi blinked his eyes, and several others were also curious. No one knew that Shu Lingyi had asked this question just now.

"Obsidian is something that occurs when magma suddenly solidifies due to a sudden drop in temperature. Usually when a volcano erupts, only the lava erupts and falls into the sea? In the river?"

"Anyway, if there is less water, it will just evaporate directly. Unless it is a big river or a sea, or even a big lake. If saltpeter is used to make ice, maybe it can have a similar effect if there is enough ice?"

Xin Qing was not completely sure. Her opinion was pure conjecture. After all, she had never conducted this experiment herself.

"So it is!"

Shu Lingyi nodded thoughtfully, then patted Xin Jing on the shoulder: "Then you and Ranran will go dig saltpeter mines today."

"Oh! Is it possible that the boss wants to use saltpeter to make ice and then wait for the volcano to erupt to add more obsidian?!"

Xin Qing is not stupid. She went mining with Su Ranran yesterday, but like Su Ranran, she didn't think about this volcano.

After all, according to other veteran players in the territory, the volcano had been there for a long time, and she had forgotten that volcanic eruptions were always accompanied by earthquakes.

The system is so stupid, how can it arrange any good days for players?

"Yes, Qi Xuanze needs obsidian to make seismic isolation supports. When I asked Gongping before where I could buy it, he said he didn't have it."

"I didn't expect to be waiting for us here! After the volcano erupts, players with big rivers will have to have a chance to mine obsidian."

"But who is stupid enough to live nearby when a volcano erupts?!"

Shu Ling smiled bitterly, there were too few people who could meet the conditions, so he might as well do it himself! Use ice cubes to get lots of obsidian for yourself.

Self-reliance is the best.

"Hehe, that's no problem. I dug a saltpeter mine today and came back to prepare a few large containers and water, so I can make ice."

"Well, when the time comes, big brother, please see if you can free up a cellar to place these containers."

Xin Qing drank the last mouthful of soup and smiled cutely.

"Containers... Then I'll just stone these stone jars. The wooden barrels may freeze and crack..."

Shu Lingyi was stumped by a new problem. Making ice from saltpeter was not difficult, but currently a container large enough to hold water was needed. When the water freezes, the container must withstand the low temperature.

"One more thing, that is, the ice needs to be able to be stored, otherwise the weather will melt quickly."

"I'm afraid the ice cubes won't hold up for long and will be scratched off in the cellar. The cellars built by the big guys before were not very deep, and the depth of the ice cellar must be at least six meters."

Xin Jing raised all these questions, and Shu Ling began to think about countermeasures.

Qi Xuanze: "The ice cellar is just deeper. I have made enough cement so far. Obsidian is what I need. I can choose a place here to dig deeper to use as an ice cellar."

"However, with this kind of underground depth, it is difficult for it to remain intact since the earthquake."

Now it becomes difficult again. There is no place to store the ice made in advance. If we wait until the volcano erupts, we may not be able to make it in time.

[Hey, it can be synthesized with ice cubes and protective shields. 】

When Shu Ling saw the news, his eyes widened - could it still be done like this? !

[Of course, otherwise your protective shield, even if it has high defense, cannot withstand the 1400-degree high temperature of the molten magma. 】

[You must know that the protective shield cannot block all such natural disasters, so only by synthesizing enough ice cubes can you temporarily obtain a protective shield that can withstand the lava. 】

After seeing the end of this, Shu Lingyi understood, and she said to Xin Qing: "Then let's make some first. We'll wait for the container player who is tired of continuous tasks to come. I'll ask him to help make a few."

It's not easy to pick out the right size for a stone jar, but for a wooden barrel... she can change the wood!

If she used hemlock wood boards to make barrels, she would not believe that they would be cracked by the low temperature.

Xin Jing nodded obediently: "Then just listen to the boss!"

"Hey, I think the ice cubes can be synthesized after being made. For example, if it is synthesized with a granary, will it have a freezing effect?"

After classmate Xiao Ai said that ice cubes can be combined with protective shields, Shu Lingyi's imagination was opened.

Others immediately had an idea, and Qi Xuanze immediately followed: "If it is really possible, wouldn't it be as long as I dig a deep enough pit and let the big guys form a cellar?"

"Then add enough ice cubes to synthesize it. Can it be turned into an ice cellar?"

Rainbow Dash also came up with an idea: "If the water used is clean, the ice produced should be edible, right?"

Xin Jing nodded: "Because saltpeter ice is made by putting water in a small container into a large container of water, and the saltpeter is added to the large container."

"Then after the saltpeter is dissolved in water, it will start to absorb heat and cool down like crazy. When the temperature is low enough, the water in the small container will freeze."

"So, if the water in the small container is clean and the environment is clean, then the ice will be edible."

"Okay, then I can get some other cold drinks! Otherwise, the cold drinks these days are all dependent on orchid honey, and honey can't withstand the large number of us."

Shu Lingyi is also happy. With edible ice cubes, the range of cold drinks that can be made will be wider.

Everyone had had breakfast and was getting ready to go their separate ways. At this time, the health bar of the protective shield had dropped by 3 points.

It's good to upgrade the protective shield, otherwise it will definitely start with ten drops of blood.

Ten drops of blood is one thousand gold coins. It doesn't look like much, but it's still a lot... At least Shu Lingyi only has [-] gold coins now.

She was left to build new public granaries and public warehouses.

It's a pity that the reservoir can no longer be built, and it has not rained for more than a month since Guyu. Although she uses less water in the reservoir, it will naturally decrease every day.

It would be even more outrageous to add it manually. You will definitely have to rely on this broken system to gain face and rain.

Ask her to tell you this stupid game. If she says it rains, it will rain all day long. If she says it doesn't rain, it won't rain at all.

It’s really a disturbing mentality.

On the way to the north, Shu Ling was quite surprised when he found out that he had received an extra gold coin.

A full extra 12000 gold coins!

In an instant, the deposit went from [-] to [-]. Shu Lingyi was confused and happy at the same time.

Looking at the system display again, it turned out that Zhong Qingwei bought Zidun and bought 100 square meters in one go!

After spending [-] gold coins, Shu Lingyi earned [-] in tears.

Are you afraid that all the gold coins you got yesterday were used to buy Zidun?

But why did she increase her gold coins? Shu Lingyi asked classmate Xiao Ai with some confusion.

She had never done this before when she bought other things, and it didn’t happen when everyone else bought something, right?

[For these two special props, the residents will give feedback to the lord when they purchase them. The teleportation stone is a part of the revenue that the player gets from it and gives it to the lord. 】

[Sub-shield means that when players purchase and repair it, the lord can get [-]% of the profit. 】

In this game, the two special props sold by the system are sub-shields and teleportation stones. It is estimated that other bits and pieces of materials do not have this effect.

Shu Lingyi was still a little curious about where Zhong Qingwei bought Zidun and placed it, otherwise she would have bought Zidun in all three teleportation stones.

Although the earthquake is coming, the inside of the mine is obviously unsafe, and it may be necessary to buy new sub-shields to expand the range.

But if she remembered correctly, wasn't there a diamond mine in Su Lingjue's teleportation stone?

There’s no need to buy a hundred square meters, right?

Suppressing the doubts in her heart, she was embarrassed to ask Zhong Qingwei why he bought so many Ziduns.

She and Comrade Zhong are both "residents", so she shouldn't show anything when Zhong Qing hasn't bought anything.

If she asked, wouldn't it be pure self-destruction?

If you are really curious, you can ask in a subtle way, such as asking how many gold coins Comrade Zhong still has in his hand...

Because of the distance, Shu Ling and others arrived at Mary's side more than half an hour faster than Zhong Qingwei and others.

Acting according to yesterday's assignment, everyone cooperated in an orderly manner.

But today, many level four monsters are already in a violent state, their eyes are red, and they are attacking like crazy as if they have lost all sense of pain.

However, this irrational state is very suitable for feeding poisonous fungi. After stuffing a lot of them, it will attack other monsters crazily.

Much better than yesterday.

The state of the fifth and sixth level monsters may not be normal, but they have not yet reached the point of complete madness.

At first, Wang Xiangguo, Shu Lingyi, and Xu Qingfeng were fighting outside. Fortunately, Zhong Qingwei and others soon arrived.

The three of them joined the battlefield to cooperate with the pets in the fight. Mary and Wang Wenwen now changed their main targets to birds and monsters in the sky.

Su Ranran and Xin Jing dug saltpeter, because it was in the teleportation stone and could not be teleported directly, so they had to take it out in batches.

Xin Jing had just come out to send news back to her senior brother who had been out of contact for more than two hours.

But it's not good news.

[Yan Huan]: "It's really unlucky. Not long after I set out, I thought there were no more monsters, but within half an hour I ran into a group of giant forest pigs!"

[Yan Huan]: "This thing is more ferocious than yesterday! Then I ran all the way, and it was even worse now. It seemed that there was a wave of beasts in front of me... I seemed to have no time to take a detour."

Yan Huan had a pained look on his face. He always felt that he had been really unlucky recently.

The mask of pain was welded to his face.

Xin Jing didn't expect her senior brother to be so miserable, and then she suddenly remembered that she still had the hidden feather coat sent by Luo Zhiqing.

It was originally intended to be given to Yan Huan as a precaution, but Yan Huan lost contact and she didn't give it away.
