After the Doomsday natural disaster game was launched, Zeng Xu's luck has been good. Not only did he pick up control skills and attack skills, but he also pulled out a team to make a living by hunting players.
Days are easy and life is peaceful.
Relying on teamwork, sometimes they can even outwit the weak to successfully hunt advanced players.
Seeing that the purple staff and the purple robe were available, and the teammates gradually became stronger, Zeng Xu thought that life would go on like this. Until one day, they met a team, some members beat monsters and leveled up, and two members stayed away from the team and stayed in the resource point to pick them up.
What is a God-given opportunity? That's it.
After a while, Zeng Xu discussed the countermeasures with his teammates.
He threw out the control skills first, imprisoned one of them, and then let his teammates focus on attacking the other.
It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, even if it is a sneak attack, they can't win. Not to mention that a target was not killed, on the contrary, there were countless casualties on his own side. No one escaped except him!
Since then, Zeng Xu has been depressed a lot, and once thought about giving up hunting players.
At this moment, he met the boss Rush, and picked up the S-level skill "Dark Energy", an orange staff, and an orange ring.
Zeng Xu worked hard, pulled out a new team, and became the number one in Sunset Village in one fell swoop.
He never imagined that he would encounter the female evil star who was terrified of avoiding it again, and was defeated again.
Unlike the last time, last time he lost, at least he escaped safely. And this time, because of the S-rank skill "Dark Energy", the orange staff, and the orange ring, he turned himself to death all of a sudden!
Before he lost consciousness, Zeng Xu was full of remorse, why did he attack? Why throw all the skills in one breath, wishing to kill people before the target reacts? If you don't want to kill the other party so urgently, will you be fine
With endless annoyance, he collapsed.
"Boss?!!"
The exclamation sounded, and the team members turned their heads and found that their boss had been killed. They were immediately shocked and stunned.
The leader is already dead, is this fight still going on
For a time, people's hearts were floating, and no one dared to act rashly.
At this time, Yun Ling's situation was not very good. She never imagined that there was a super expert among those who attacked. Not to mention that he was controlled, his blood volume instantly -400!
There are still 7 people on the other side. If they rush up together, how will this fight be fought? How! What! beat!
Yun Ling quickly took out a high-quality bandage and added blood to himself. Then vigilantly look at the person coming, always ready to run away.
And what about the attackers? You look at me one by one, I look at you, I wish others would rush to be cannon fodder, stay by myself, and wait until the end to pick up the leaks.
However, no one is a fool. Everyone thought so, and the end result could only be everyone staring at each other.
The situation is deadlocked.
The assassin shouted, "Kill her! Avenge the boss!"
Teammates were shocked. The boss is killed by the opponent, and only the opponent can pick up the dropped items. If you kill the other party, can't the things left by the boss be divided equally? !
Although it is good to have a super-strong boss covering him, it would be even better if he had an adventure and became an existence that surpassed the public.
Thinking of this, the teammates were refreshed and stepped forward with knives, sticks, and daggers.
"Whoosh-"
An arrow flew halfway, and suddenly burst open, blowing up the sneak attack team.
"Not good! She has an accomplice!" The assassin shouted loudly, and the next second, he used the "Speed" skill to run far away.
The boss has been wiped out, what use is it for them? The team members were already panicking. When one begins to flee, the others disperse like birds and beasts.
Yun Ling breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look somewhere, "Why are you here?"
Lu Chuan: "Passing by."
Yun Ling, "…"
It takes more than an hour to walk from Lingyun Town to Sunset Village, passing by
Seeing that Yunling was still struggling, Lu Chuan had to tell the truth, "I met a player fleeing from Sunset Village in Lingyun Town, and I know it's very chaotic here. I heard that you are going to the territory near Lingyun Town, so come and have a look."
Among the surrounding territories, Sunset Village has the worst reputation.
Originally, he thought that as long as he didn't go to Sunset Village, he should be fine. Unexpectedly, when I came over, I saw that the man was in Sunset Village, and he fought with a strange player, looking embarrassed.
"Thank you." Before leaving, Yun Ling didn't know that Sunset Village was like this ghost. If she knew, she must have bodyguards.
On the other hand, she is also considered unlucky. With the purple moccasin boots, she could have easily thrown her pursuers away, but unexpectedly, the opponent came up with a control technique and directly immobilized her.
If it wasn't for Lu Chuan's appearance, there would probably be a hard fight afterwards.
Yunling picked up the dropped items and found that he got some materials, some copper coins, orange staff*1, s-level skill card*1, a-level skill card*1, purple shoes*1, purple robe*1.
"Anything you want?" Yun Ling asked.
If Lu Chuan hadn't appeared in time, she might have to withdraw strategically, and the spoils would not be picked up in time.
Now that she has gained a lot, she doesn't mind splitting the other half.
"No, you keep it." Lu Chuan's eyes were full of smiles, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
Yun Ling was stunned.
He came from thousands of miles to find her without asking for anything in return, what a wonderful person!
"You..." Yun Ling wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to speak.
"What's wrong?" Lu Chuan asked.
"It's okay." Yun Ling shook his head and changed the subject, "Let's go back to Lingyun Town."
"Okay." Lu Chuan simply responded.
**
On the way back, the resources were densely scattered along the way, and no one was collecting them. Lu Chuan mentioned it like a chat, "Sunset Village was not like this before."
"The young and middle-aged hunt, the old and the weak gather, and weave some handicrafts for sale. The hardship is a little bitter, but everyone can survive."
"Since Zeng Xu had a fortuitous encounter, he gathered a group of his subordinates to show off their might and wantonly exploit ordinary players, and the atmosphere of the entire territory has changed."
"The big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the dried shrimp. The classes are clearly defined. Those who were able escaped, and those who were incapable stayed in the territory and waited to die.
"These are all said by the fleeing players in Sunset Village?" Yun Ling asked.
"Yes." Lu Chuan nodded.
Yun Ling muttered to himself, "Does this count as a ** harming a territory?"
Lu Chuan was silent.
In the game, advanced players always have more say. If the mind is not right, it is not impossible to deviate the entire territory.
Yun Ling didn't want to think too much about bad things, so he changed the topic, "I haven't seen you for a while, and the quiver has changed?"
At this moment, Lu Chuan clearly has 1 orange, 4 purple and five quivers.
"En." Lu Chuan responded casually, "The tailor's shop sells purple quivers, so I stocked up on a few."
Yun Ling, "…"
All the purple quivers in the tailor's shop were made by her own hands.
The reason why it is sold in the system store is to achieve the upgrade conditions. I didn't expect to go around and make money from Lu Chuan.
Thinking about the other party's hard work and running to warn him, Yun Ling decided to treat him better in the future.
**
Lingyun Town.
The archers ran around to tell them, "Folks, today, the big demon king is not here!!"
"It can be regarded as gone." Someone wept with joy, "He lives in the territory every day, kills him when he sees it, and does not leave a way for others to survive."
Some people couldn't listen anymore, and looked up, "If you have his strength, will you be standing in the territory for a long time to output?"
"Of course! Monsters raid the territory, how many can kill, everyone depends on their abilities and competes fairly!" The man replied without hesitation.
When he realized what he had said, he blushed and added with a guilty conscience, "But I don't have his strength."
When others stand up for output, there is no way for others to live, while for oneself, it means that everyone competes fairly and according to their own abilities.
The other party didn't argue and walked away, but his eyes contained contempt.
After the man finished speaking, he felt embarrassed, his face panicked.
Coinciding with the attack of twenty ice elements, he quickly put aside his distractions, drew arrows from his quiver, and focused on the attack.
Arrow salvo. Soon, the rounds passed.
Tapping, the man couldn't help but burst into tears.
Can you gain something without the presence of the big demon king? He found himself thinking too much.
Other archer players are not vegetarians, and one is better than the other.
In addition, the territory guards will not watch.
They work together to attack the same target. At the end of almost every round of shooting, an Ice Elemental can be killed.
In the future, don't be in trouble, just go out hunting. That person has a heart.
**
The strong alliance, the purple light and the orange light flicker alternately, this time there is finally no one who does not have long eyes to come up.
After walking for an hour, the two returned to Lingyun Town.
"I'm leaving, be careful going out in the future." Lu Chuan said.
"Thank you." Yun Ling said while waving.
When she watched Lu Chuan go away, she raised her cheeks and thought about what kind of gift she should prepare to express her gratitude.
"Sir." Archer Armor leaned closer and whispered, "We hunted down the ice elements that attacked the territory, and we got 4 saltpeter in total."
It was a white crystalline ore that shimmered glassy in the sunlight.
"Well done." Yun Ling said with approval.
Sagittarius Jia smiled naively, not taking credit.
"Summer, saltpeter, ice cubes... The salt making alone is too busy, how can I have spare time to make ice? Raw materials are also a problem. When a solution is found, the summer may be over... At present, the most important thing is to provide More products to cool off the heat to make it easier for players to travel." Thinking of this, Yun Ling made up his mind.
She opens the page to be unlocked, chooses to unlock, and builds the "ice store".
At the moment of pressing "OK", copper coins will be -100.
Within three seconds, the icehouse appeared in the center of Lingyun Town.
View the existing building details, only the panel shows——
[Freezer (Level 1): The area is 200 square meters, and it can produce 1 cubic decimeter of ice cubes per day, which can refrigerate food and prolong the shelf life. (Note: The lord can set an admission list to allow specific groups to use it.)]
"Move the meat and ingredients with a short shelf life in the warehouse into the freezer." Yun Ling ordered.
"Yes." Archer A obeyed.
[Unlockable buildings: 10]
【Existing buildings: 8】
Looking at the numbers on the panel, Yun Ling was extremely helpless, "There is a shortage of buildings, it seems that there is no extra space for the blacksmith shop..."
Closing the panel, she intends to wait and see.
**
In the freezer.
The shooter A, B, C, and Ding worked hard to carry them like worker ants, while Yun Ling was hanging out in the freezer.
She found that there are many shelves in the refrigerator, and ingredients can be placed on the shelves for refrigeration.
There are several freezers neatly placed in the corners. Most of them are empty, only one is full.
Yun Ling glanced at it and said in his heart that a small ice cube was about 1 cubic centimeter in size. The ice warehouse produces 1 cubic decimeter of ice cubes per day, which is 1,000 small ice cubes.
"Save enough money to upgrade the building to level 2, when the output should be more?"
Thinking that summer ice drinks can be eaten casually, Yunling's heart suddenly blossomed.
After thinking about it, she packed 60 ice cubes with a cotton back, and then left the freezer.
**
I went to the laboratory first and gave the only scientific research talent a high temperature subsidy - 10 ice cubes. And told him that the trip to Sunset Village was fruitless.
Zhang Heng couldn't wait to make himself a glass of ice water and drink it in one gulp to feel refreshed.
When the summer heat is over, I have time to ask, "What should I do then?"
"You work hard, I will go to other territories to see another day." Yun Ling said.
Zhang Heng solemnly responded.
Yun Ling comforted a few words, scavenged a quarter of the freshly prepared salt, and then knocked on the door of Lu Chuan's house.
"Why are you here?" Lu Chuan was surprised.
"Thank you." Yun Ling answered succinctly. Then he took out fifty packets of salt and fifty ice cubes.
Lu Chuan, "…"
In the sweltering heat of summer, there is nothing more refreshing than a glass of iced drink.
The high temperature continues, and the game materials have a relatively long shelf life, but there is still the possibility of rotting and deterioration. Sprinkle with salt to greatly extend the shelf life.
This thank you gift is so ingenious that it is impossible to refuse.
Lu Chuan sighed, "Thank you."
Life is probably a cycle of owed favors and repaying favors, just get used to it. (bush)
**
Yun Ling originally waited for a combat-oriented talent, but after waiting for a long time, the system found a life-skilled talent.
Level: 5
Attributes: Strength 15, Agility 7, Stamina 8, Intelligence 5, Spirit 5.
Combat skills: none
Life Skills: Intermediate Cooking, Beginner Baking
Items that can be made: multigrain steamed bread, white porridge, polenta, iced watermelon juice, mung bean soup, milk tea, brown bread, white bread, honey cake, and crackers.
All NPCs will cook are essential food for summer cooling, and the hiring is just right.
Yun Ling clicked OK and gave the name "Chef Ding".
The materials in the warehouse are all ready-made. In the afternoon, the restaurant has a few new products.
【Name: Iced Watermelon Juice (Refreshing Drink)】
Quality: Excellent Use effect: Basic recovery speed + 3 HP/min (lasts 3 hours)
Price: 200 copper coins.

【Name: Polenta】

Price: 50 copper coins.
**
In the afternoon, You Qingwen and Zheng Mingyue were in a hurry, trotting all the way to the restaurant.
The restaurant will refresh new salt every once in a while, sometimes more than thirty packets, sometimes fifteen or six packets. They went out hunting and returned to town early, just to buy first.
Entering the restaurant lobby, as expected, there were not many customers, and the two got the salt packet as they wished.
Before she had time to leave, You Qingwen let out a light sigh, "Look! There are summer drinks for sale!"
When she looked at the price again, she was in pain, "The cheapest one costs 50 copper coins..."
"If you like it, buy it." Zheng Mingyue said generously.
You Qingwen can afford it, but she feels distressed, "How many mobs do we have to fight to afford a bowl of mung bean soup?"
After a little calculation, I feel that my eyes are dark.
"What are you afraid of?" Zheng Mingyue comforted his girlfriend, "I bought a house and saved a lot of food. I'm already a formal resident. I don't need to pay overnight fees, so I don't have much money to spend. It's just a bowl of mung bean soup. Buy it if you want!"
You Qingwen was heartbroken, "Then... I bought it?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she added, "I bought it for us to drink together!"
"Okay." Zheng Mingyue replied with a smile.
So the two bought mung bean soup, multi-grain steamed buns, and rice porridge, and then sat down at random in the hall.
The moment of spending money is quite painful, but after spending it, I feel nothing.
You Qingwen picked up the wooden bowl and took a big mouthful, then her eyes lit up, "Delicious!"
The mung bean soup really cleared away heat and relieved the summer heat. As soon as she finished drinking it, she felt the heat dissipated, and her whole body was much better.
"I'll try it." While speaking, Zheng Mingyue took a sip.
The two of you took one bite and one bite, and quickly ate up dinner.
"The negative state has subsided." You Qingwen suddenly made a new discovery, "Not only that, but also a new gain state."
"Basic recovery speed + 1 HP/minute (lasts 1 hour)?" Zheng Mingyue asked.
"No." You Qingwen shook her head, "Basic recovery speed +1 HP/minute (lasts 45 minutes), immune to the scorching sun for 45 minutes."
"My buff status is the basic recovery speed + 1 HP/min (lasts 15 minutes), and is protected from the scorching sun for 15 minutes." Zheng Mingyue rubbed his chin, "The duration seems to be related to the amount of soup you drink. Less soup has something to do with it."
Compared with time, You Qingwen is more concerned about "protection from the scorching sun", "If we prepare more mung bean soup when we go out, can we completely get rid of the negative state and fight monsters normally?"
"Wake up." Zheng Mingyue had to pierce his girlfriend's fantasy, "50 copper coins for a mung bean soup, there is no way to buy it in large quantities."
Unexpectedly, You Qingwen replied confidently, "If you can't afford it, then train people to do it yourself!"
With the precedent of businessmen making straw sandals to grab the business of the system store, she easily thought of a compromise.
"That's a good idea." Zheng Mingyue was lost in thought.
**
In the evening, the npc came back with the collection team.
Listening to the report of the guard, today was lucky and found two melon fields, and they collected a full 80 large watermelons.
Yun Ling was overjoyed, "Let me see."
When I took it out, the watermelon looked great and looked big and sweet.
Seeing the members of the collection team quietly swallowing, Yun Ling smiled, "Cut four of them, cut each into eight equal parts, and bring back a piece of watermelon tonight."
Player, "!!!"
Everyone was surprised and happy, so happy that they didn't know what to do.
Someone asked, "What about the escort brother? It's hard for them to leave early and come back late..."
Yunling said, "They're another matter."
Players can rest assured.
Cut the watermelon, the flesh in the middle is red and bright, and it is slightly transparent.
The player looked at it and drooled.
"One piece per person, take it." Yun Ling ordered.
"thank you boss."
"The boss is really nice."
"Woooooo I'm going to work for you for the rest of my life!!"
Some people hold it and refuse to eat it, intending to take it back to the family. Someone was a bachelor, he didn't have so many scruples, he took a bite and said, "It's so sweet!"
Thirty people in the collection team, four watermelons were divided into 8 equal parts, a total of 32 pieces, and there were 2 pieces left, which Yun Ling picked up and ate.
When the player left, she asked the guard to send the remaining watermelon to the icehouse for freezing.
**
Night falls.
The town is rejuvenated and lively again.
"Sell peanuts! Delicious peanuts!" Qiaoqiao set up a stall on the spot and shouted loudly.
"What flavor? How to sell it?" Someone soon came to ask the price.
Qiaoqiao smiled and said, "Spiced peanuts, in a wooden bowl, 5 copper coins each time."
The man was obviously moved, and asked again, "Can I pretend it myself?"
"Yes." Qiaoqiao readily agreed.
The man said nothing and immediately paid 5 copper coins. Then the wooden bowl was buried in peanuts, and it was packed tightly. When it was brought out again, the top was faintly pointed.
Qiaoqiao didn't mind at all, "As much as you can, it's yours!"
"How embarrassing this is..." The man said so, but his actions were not ambiguous at all. He packed peanuts in his pocket and ran home in a hurry.
A sip of peanuts and a sip of wine, how happy is it? It can make you forget all the troubles in the world!
"Sell peanuts! Delicious peanuts." After sending the customers away, Qiaoqiao started selling again.
**
I ate two slices of watermelon, Yunling. She roamed the territory, planning to eat and drink.
"Maltose! Fragrant maltose!"
The screaming caught her attention.
Yunling walked to the booth and asked, "How do you sell maltose?"
The stall owner is a black and thin man, and when he sees customers coming, his expression is a little cramped. "There are two kinds of maltose, a brown liquid, also called syrup, which is packed in a jar and can be eaten with a wooden stick. A white sugar cube, You can eat it."
Yun Ling asked again, "How much?"
"5 copper coins rolled up and eaten, sent to wooden jars; 1 copper coin and 2 sugar cubes." The black and thin man replied.
Yun Ling touched his pocket, "I want a bottle of canned syrup and 10 candy cubes. There are a total of 10 copper coins here."
"Okay." The black and thin man was overjoyed, and quickly handed out the syrup and candy bars, "The new store opened, and you are the first business I made. Since you don't bargain, I'll give you a few more candy bars!"
"Okay." Yun Ling replied with a smile.
When the maltose was in hand, she found that the canned syrup was slightly sticky. It tastes good when rolled up and eaten sweet.
The candy tastes slightly sour, but it also has the fragrance of malt, and the taste is very unique.
"The maltose you made is really delicious." Yunling boasted while eating, "Some people make lumpy maltose too hard and it's inconvenient to put your mouth down. What you sell is different. The softness and hardness are moderate, and the sweetness is just right. "
The black and thin man is embarrassed to be praised. He explained, "My family is from a rural area. In the past, I used to make stove candy for Chinese New Year. That's when I learned the craft."
"I don't like it now, and I haven't touched it for many years. Fortunately, the process is not forgotten, and the ability is still there."
"A few years earlier, everyone used sugar syrup to draw sugar figures, so it would be beautiful and delicious!"
"When you mention it like that, I want to eat Candy Man." Yun Ling said half-jokingly.
"My uncle used to do it, but unfortunately he didn't escape when he fled." The black and thin man's face darkened.
"Just came to Lingyun Town?" Yun Ling asked.
"Yes." The black and thin man nodded, "I originally lived in another territory, and my life was going to end soon, so I went to Lingyun Town to try my luck."
Then, he sighed with great admiration, "This place is really good! The craftsmen don't need to fight monsters, and they can actually support themselves. How can it be done in other places? If you don't go out for adventure, if you don't go out to hunt, the family will starve to death, or Get kicked out of the safe zone!"
"Lingyun Town is different from other places." Yun Ling said sternly, "The rainy season is over, and the life players who can make bamboo hats, bamboo umbrellas, and mink clothes have all made a fortune and bought a house."
"Nowadays, life is nourishing, and life is no worse than that of high-level combat players."
"No!" Talking about a topic of interest, the black and thin man immediately became energetic, "I heard that elderly people can buy a house by knitting straw shoes. In fact, I can do this, but I'm just unlucky, I didn't find it. Good place, or they would have lived a good life like them eight hundred years earlier!"
"There will be opportunities in the future." Yun Ling comforted, "As long as the craftsmanship is there, there is no need to worry about lack of food."
"Then I'll borrow your auspicious words."
The two were chatting, and another customer came to ask the price.
Those who have more money spend 5 copper coins to buy syrup and roll it up, and those who have less money spend 1 or 2 coins to buy some candy cubes to give sweetness to the elderly and children.
"I wish the business is booming." Yun Ling greeted and wandered elsewhere.
The black and thin man was very busy collecting money and handing out candy bars.
Although a little busy, but my heart is very happy.
Hey, look, he earned more than 30 copper coins in just a few moments. Can other territories compare? Lingyun Town is really a good place!
