After all, it was difficult for the power of magic to compete with a natural disaster of this magnitude. The missing fragments still fell into the forest, creating dense pits, and many monsters were killed and injured as a result.
Fortunately, the village where the two were located was not affected, and they could only hear the faint sound of thumping in the forest.
After the threat of the meteorite was eliminated, the composite magic circle in the direction of De'er City gradually disappeared and became a short-lived memory of the two of them.
Facing the meteorite but not dying, the two people who escaped from death were in a daze. It was really strange!
Is this the end of the world
…
The meteorite dispersed the clouds, and the sky was still dark higher up. The two took their cloaks and the clothes they had thrown in the corner when they washed their bodies.
After the clothes are dried, the corrosive damage caused by the black rain disappears.
The two got dressed, walked to the wooden house where they had been living, and retrieved the supplies that they had not had time to take away before.
Picking up a trap totem that he had made before but not taken away, Xiang En walked to the entrance of the village.
The trap totem that originally stood at the entrance of the village had been standing for more than 12 hours. The totem that had lost its magic power was like a fragile item that had lost its luster. It broke when touched. He threw it aside and replaced it with a new trap. totem.
After inserting the new trap totem, Xiang En looked at the original vegetable garden at the entrance of the village, where the corpses of the villagers were buried. Now that I think about it, the village chief and the villagers must have known something and knew that the end was coming, so they committed suicide in despair by taking poison, right
The wind was blowing fiercely. Xiang En thought about the people who had passed away, then raised his head and looked at the sky that was not getting better.
The current calm situation made him more and more uneasy, but maybe it was just because the scene did not meet his psychological expectations. He always felt that there was still a severe test waiting for the two of them.
Huhu
There was a whistling sound behind his head. Xiang En turned around and saw that the sky in the distance was dyed red by fire. A meteorite smaller than the one just fell from the sky, and then was attacked by several arcane attacks rising from the direction of Gray Stone City. Broken.
This is really... there is a tall person in front of me!
Shaking his head, Xiang En turned around and returned to the village. Then he met a frowning Andrea and got some bad news.
"The well water turned black..."
"Well, it doesn't matter, I can handle it."
Xiang En had long expected that the well water would be contaminated. Fortunately, every household in the village had a water tank. The water in it should still be clean and they could drink it for a while.
Things after that can be left to time to settle. If it cannot be purified naturally, then you can try other purification methods.
For example, distillation, or tinkering with some simple filtration devices to purify water sources, there are always more solutions than difficulties.
In short, there is no need to worry about the water source, and Xiang En is not too worried about food. A man who can produce and sell his own food is so confident, it is just a little more difficult.
Hearing what Xiang En said, Andrea felt relieved, and then she remembered the contact just now and blushed.
Are you blushing like a hammer
Xiang En said nothing more and took Andrea to the alchemist's cabin, which was the room with the basement.
Because that house has a basement, there are a lot of drainage channels. The floor is drier than other houses, and the moisture is not as heavy.
At night, except for the sporadic giant meteorites intercepted by magic, the doomsday seemed to be just a rain that was not simple.
In places where there are no people, there may be meteorites hitting the ground, but in De Aier Province, De Aier City and Greystone City, which are at the two central points, will intercept the meteorites falling towards De Aier Province. Living.
When the planet turned in one direction, there was no big movement in the De Aire province at night.
After cooking a pot of stew in the kitchen, Xiang En and Andrea sat on chairs facing each other, quietly eating the soup made from the bread and dried meat in their hands.
Dekui Xiangen is a Chinese and has a habit of stocking goods that is rooted in his soul. During the month of improving his strength, he basically smoked the endless prey into dried meat, and by the way, he also harvested a round of potatoes from the villagers. , these foods keep them from going hungry now.
Chewing the bread that was neither salty nor bland, the slight sweetness made Andrea feel lucky to meet Xiang En again. Not everyone has this kind of plan for a rainy day. Even she has been nursing after leaving the academy. It has become a bad habit to spend all the money you have.
Xiang En ate the food, staring at the wooden bowl, thinking about how to escape and how to keep himself and Andrea alive.
Recalling that vague memory of surfing the Internet, he was thinking about how to build a shelter and survive in the apocalypse, and how to do irrigation without soil...
Just for reference, there is no engineering technology here, but there is alchemy technology. Some ideas from previous lives cannot be realized in this world, but some ideas can be realized through magic.
After filling his stomach with thoughts, Xiang En kept his brows furrowed the whole time, making Andrea dare not disturb him rashly.
Using bread as a rag to wipe away the food residue in bowls and pots, stuffing it into the stomach, it was considered a day's work.
Leaning back on the chair, Xiang En finally stopped frowning, but the worry was still brewing.
Seeing his appearance, Andrea gave up the idea of cultivating a relationship with him, and even felt a little selfish and useless.
But she was really not good at thinking about overly complex problems, so she could only silently put away the unsightly empty bowl on the table.
After coming back, Xiang En was already standing by the window, looking at the sky outside the window, silent.
The cold wind poured into the house, causing Andrea to squeeze her hands. She walked to Xiang En and looked at his side face in a daze.
"The weather..." Xiang En took a deep breath of the slightly sour air outside the house and said heavily, "The weather is about to get colder. It's almost winter, right?"
Yes, winter is coming.
It was the summer of this world when I left De'er City. I had just left the academy and wasted two months. When Xiang En found Andrea, it was already autumn.
Xiang En still remembers that the farmers harvested wheat in advance at that time, and the clean-up operation came not long after, followed by two months of traveling and living in the village. After experiencing various incidents, winter was approaching.
Although he didn't know much about climate change and other issues, Xiang En knew that there must be places that the mages couldn't take care of that would be hit by meteorites, and the chain reaction caused by the falling meteorites would definitely affect this winter.
Xiang Enguang shudders just thinking about what the future will be like, but right now he is more afraid of the monsters in the forest that need to hibernate. They will continue to hunt and feed themselves until they are white and fat.
And those animals that drink contaminated water should go crazy, right
Previously, he was planning to leave the De Aire Province in the last month of autumn and spend the winter in Andrea's hometown.
After all, the two of them had a life-long friendship, so I thought it would be no problem for me to find Andrea for a meal.
It's a pity that God did not fulfill his wish...
Now, they are back in the village and must seriously think about how to survive this winter.
Winter!
It's not winter yet, but Xiang En feels the temperature has dropped significantly.
Food is easy to solve, but water cannot survive the winter.
He expected that the drafty wooden house would most likely not be able to withstand this winter. Besides, he was a southerner. Without the constant temperature magic in De Aier City, he would probably shiver from the cold.
