In fact, there are not a few players who think of burning trees.
Just after hearing the system warning, most people lost their minds. However, there is always a small group of people who are particularly daring and believe in "risk and reward".
Evergreen is one of them.
The system said the tree-burning act would have serious, unknown consequences, he thought. Since it is "unknown", it should be possible to get better or worse? If the odds are 1 in 2, it's worth a shot.
In the last round of competition, Changqing set fire to it and successfully became one of the survivors of the customs clearance. Now that I have tasted the sweetness, I am even more timid. He quickly put the system's warnings behind him and boldly lit dead branches and dry wood. Then step back quickly and stand in the isolation belt.
The fiery snake devoured the trees and continued to spread around, burning bigger and bigger. At the same time, the black smoke slowly spread out.
Changqing wet the cotton cloth with mineral water, covered his mouth and nose, and calmly watched the fire spread.
Just then, he heard the howling of wolves and some other small sounds. It seems that a few wild wolves accidentally got caught in the flames and couldn't help howling in pain. Occasionally, there are sounds of rolling on the ground and thumping fires.
Changqing raised the corners of his mouth, his face brightened, and he said in his heart that after the fire, everything will be burned to the ground. And he only needs to lie leisurely in the sun and eat and drink calmly.
Just as he was imagining a better future, the howling of wolves got closer and closer.
Changqing's face changed slightly, and he thought of a problem with hindsight—the isolation zone he was in might be the safest place in the virgin forest at present. Shouldn't animals come to take refuge?
As if to verify his guess, the next second, a pack of wolves appeared in front of him. Some of them had partially burnt fur, and the wounds exuded a lingering scorch smell.
Seeing Changqing, the wolves rushed towards him fiercely as if they had found a mortal enemy.
Changqing escaped in embarrassment. At this time, he faintly realized that something was not right, but he couldn't stop. The fire is so big that no one can stop it from spreading unless it rains suddenly.
He told himself over and over again that it was the darkness before dawn. As long as you survive the beast attack, the future will be bright.
Thinking like this, Changqing took out a grenade and a pistol from the carry-on warehouse and fought back without hesitation.
Most of the wolves were killed and injured, and they were about to be cleaned up. At this time, there was a "rumbling" running sound in the distance, and it was obvious that a large creature was approaching.
Changqing's face was ashen, and he slowly spit out three words, "Rhino group!"
Then came the many venomous snakes.
And then five black bears...
Changqing tried his best to support him, but his face became paler, and the supplies in the warehouse became less and less.
In the end, he fell weakly to the ground, watching a anaconda swimming towards him, and finally couldn't help but scolded, "Fuck!"
Anaconda, the largest snake in the world, the longest is six meters! Although the one in front of him did not reach the limit, it was four meters long.
With a body weighing more than 100 kilograms, it only needs to surround the prey, then roll it gently and exert force, and the target will be crunched directly. Thinking of this, Chang Qing's entire face contorted.
Only then did he finally understand what the system's warning meant. After burning a tree, the danger is bound to be dangerous. Unknown means that he may not know which animal he died in... Because there are many types of beasts in the primeval forest...
The moment it turned into white light, Changqing wanted to curse.
**
At 9:00 a.m. the next day, the system mechanical tone sounded on time, "The second day of the game."
Zhong Rui rubbed his eyes and prepared to get up to work.
Su Han looked a little surprised, and said suddenly, "I got the precious soap." She spread out her right hand, revealing the small soap in her palm.
Traditional Chinese Medicine Soap: Handmade soap, the raw materials are both medicinal and edible. After use, satiety +20, cleanliness +100, stamina +80, "infection", "poisoning", "allergy", "diarrhea" status disappeared.
"You can get five pieces of soap like this at one time." Su Han added.
"That's good." Zhong Rui breathed a sigh of relief. The biggest problem at present is the lack of daily necessities. If the friends are a little more lucky, they will trigger a few more chances...
Su Han didn't get carried away by the sudden joy, and calmly said, "I know what you're thinking, but don't get your hopes up. It's been a long time since I got a second job, and this is the first time I've gotten a Chinese herbal soap."
"Maybe the previous Mercury retrograde was for future outbreaks?" Zhong Rui guessed.
Su Han refused to continue discussing the probability issue, and only said, "Get up, it's time to work."
Zhong Rui yawned, trying to cheer himself up.
While he was resting, Su Han had already drawn sketches on the soil with stones, and now explained to the drawings, "Now that the living space has been cleared, I plan to split the trees into thin strips and make a fence to surround them."
Zhong Rui pondered for a moment, then smiled, "I don't think it's safe enough to just build a fence. It's better to use the tent as the center to make enough space for activities, and then dig a circular channel and put electric eels into it." The beasts in the river became their patron saints.
Thinking about the scene after the completion, Su Han couldn't help but feel emotional. But she restrained herself and asked further, "How wide is the river going to be built? Enclosed in a closed circle or a ring with entrances and exits?"
"A closed circle." Zhong Rui replied without hesitation, obviously thinking carefully, "Let's make a plank as a bridge. To get in and out, just move the plank and put it on both sides of the bank to get in and out."
Such was the case in ancient cities. Usually the city is surrounded by a moat, and there are only suspension bridges in and out. The bridge is put away when not in use, and the bridge is put down when residents need to go out.
The more Su Han listened, the more heartbroken he became. She thought, "It's not impossible to catch the electric eel. I have read the information that after the electric eel discharges continuously, it needs a long period of rest to restore the original discharge intensity. If the cattle and horses are driven down the river first, After the electric eel discharges the electricity, it is easy to catch the electric eel at that time."
"That's right." Zhong Rui nodded slightly, he had also learned the same knowledge.
"This matter will be very difficult at first. Not only do you have to dig river channels and catch electric eels, but you also have to pay attention to resisting beast attacks at all times, which consumes a lot of materials." Su Han continued to analyze.
"There are only two laborers available. It will take us several days to complete this task. If the river channel is consciously expanded during construction, it will take more time."
"Fortunately, we don't have a shortage of food and drink. Instead of wasting time on finding food and finding clean water, we can spend all our energy digging canals."
"Once the river is built, and electric eels and other beasts are put in, the safety of the central area will be guaranteed. How many days can you live at that time will become a showdown between the supply speed of talent skills and the speed of consumption."
Zhong Rui continued with a smile, "Three top talents can support two players. During the upgrade, all attributes can be restored. It is worth a try."
After thinking for a moment, Su Han made a decisive choice, "Okay, discuss the activity space and the size of the river, and then dig."
But the two had disagreements over the space for activities and the size of the river.
Su Han believes that in order to prevent long nights and dreams, the river should be built as soon as possible, so the space for activities can be appropriately sacrificed, and the river can be built smaller by the way.
However, Zhong Rui believed that the two of them were not short of food or drink, so there was no need to worry at all. As long as it is completed before most of the inventory is exhausted, the outcome is the same - under the premise of sufficient safety, if the talent supply rate is greater than the consumption rate, you will be able to live forever; if the talent supply rate is lower than the consumption rate, you will die sooner or later.
The situation froze for a while.
Su Han thought about it and changed his communication method, "According to your plan, how many days will it take to complete the work?"
"According to preliminary calculations, it will take seven days to cut down trees and remove stumps on the first day, and then dig the river for six days." Zhong Rui pondered for a while before answering cautiously.
Su Han discussed, "Well, the river must be dug within seven days. If there is extra time, the river will be widened, and if time is short, it will be completed quickly."
"Yes." Zhong Rui nodded.
So far, the two have finally reached an agreement.
After having breakfast hastily, Zhong Rui continued to chop down trees. Su Han wanted to dig the river, but the space had not been cleared. Tried to dig a stump, but the tree hasn't been cut yet. In the end, she simply helped cut down trees to improve work efficiency.
Zhong Rui wanted to say something, but Su Han took the lead in expressing his position, "The time is limited, so the two of you will work faster."
Hearing this, Zhong Rui didn't say anything more.
The trees fell one after another, leaving a large space. Seeing that the space was enough, Zhong Rui picked up the wooden shovel and turned to start digging the soil.
Su Han removed the stumps one by one, and then started to make soup.
She has a king cobra by her hand, which is more than two meters long and looks very delicious. At this moment, he fell to the ground, completely breathless.
This unfortunate child was really unlucky, and he actually stared at Zhong Rui in the vast forest, and attacked while he was logging. As a result, the food was not hunted, and he lost his life.
Su Han peeled and gutted the snake, cut it into small pieces, and added ginger slices to simmer.
As time passed, a strange fragrance gradually drifted away.
Su Han looked at the heat and added a little salt and rice wine. After mixing it evenly, I tasted it, and I was immediately satisfied.
She turned around and greeted, "It's done, come and eat."
Zhong Rui was covered in dirt and looked dirty. He glanced at the attribute values and found that the cleanliness and satiety were diving, and the falling speed was unprecedentedly fast, about four or five times that of the previous dungeon. He couldn't help sighing from the bottom of his heart, "The programmer who designs the final battle is a little crazy."
"Because we have to decide the winner in this round." Su Han didn't care, "It doesn't matter how difficult it is, the most important thing is that all players are treated the same."
As she spoke, she scooped out a bowl of snake soup and handed it out.
Zhong Rui took it, looked down at the remaining half of the snake meat, and couldn't help frowning, "Why are there so many left?"
"Two or three meters! I can't finish it." Su Han felt heartache at the thought that snake meat might be wasted.
"It's hard to say." Zhong Rui made an estimate. "With the current drop rate of satiety, I might be able to finish it."
In the game, players will not be able to eat and drink, and they can let go of their stomachs and eat and drink as much as they want. When they say that they can't finish eating, it means that the fullness is replenished and there is no need to eat anymore. Before eating, the food rotted. But now the satiety has plummeted, and the food needed has greatly increased. Maybe the whole snake could come in handy before it rots.
Hearing that he had finished eating, Su Han's first reaction was not happiness, but a chill in his heart - the consumption rate was astonishingly fast, making people unconsciously terrified.
For 4 days, the two stayed in the camp to dig the river.
Not long after the start of construction, Zhong Rui found that the estimates were too optimistic. Although there are two laborers, the speed at which the girls do the hard work is impressive, even if that person is Su Han.
So he made a quick decision and made adjustments quietly.
Except for sleeping and eating, the two were digging soil, working day and night, and finally dug the river before the evening of the fifth day of the game, and made a spacious and thick wooden board.
After all the tasks were completed, Su Han murmured in a low voice, "It's smoother than expected." Originally thought it would definitely be postponed.
Zhong Rui replied calmly, "That's because the river was originally planned to be 1m deep and 4m wide, but it was quietly changed to 0.8m deep and 3m wide, so the workload was reduced."
Su Han, "..." She pretended she didn't say anything, turned her head and concentrated on roasting venison.
The king cobra meat caught at first was thrown away long ago. On the one hand, the rate of decay is faster than expected, and on the other hand, animals keep coming to the door and become new reserves, so throwing away the inferior meat is not as heart-wrenching as imagined.
only…
Su Han frowned and muttered, "Is it an illusion? Why do I feel that more and more animals have come to the door recently, and the species are getting richer and richer?"
Zhong Rui's eyes flickered, and he whispered, "The rain is coming."
The author has something to say: Wild snake meat has parasites. It's not 100% safe for them to eat snake meat, it just doesn't trigger a negative state.
