Chapter 12 Exploring the Resource Area
At this time, the treehouse prompt sounded.
[Li Wenxi initiated a video call with you. Do you accept it? 】
This little beauty, why did you post a video at noon? Didn’t you say we’ll talk about it in the evening?
Xu Xin was not even wearing any underpants now, so naturally she couldn't agree and refused directly.
"Why are you hanging up on me?" Li Wenxi replied using the chat window, "Let's chat when you have time."
"My clothes have been washed." Xu Xin replied.
"Oh."
[Li Wenxi initiated a voice call with you. Do you accept it? 】
So persistent?
Just accept it.
"Why are you doing laundry at noon?" As soon as the call was connected, Li Wenxi's voice was heard.
"I work quickly at noon, and I finish it right after dinner, so it doesn't interfere with the afternoon's work."
"That makes sense, I always take a shower in the evening!"
"Is it appropriate for you to talk about taking a shower with a man you just met?"
"Huh? Oh...Oh, it doesn't matter, you can't see it."
"What's the matter with your speech?"
"Oh, I just wanted to ask how you did this morning. How many trees did you cut down?"
"It's enough to trade with you, but it's you, aren't you lazy?"
"How can I be lazy? The first floor of my tree house is full of stones. I won't work in the afternoon. I need to take a good rest. I'm exhausted." Li Wenxi's voice over there became lazier.
"If you don't want to mine in the afternoon, you can go out and explore in a direction you haven't been before. Don't waste the last safe afternoon." Xu Xin suggested casually.
"...Why can't I just be lazy in another world..." Li Wenxi said tiredly, rubbing her arms that were still a little sore from mining the day before.
"Being lazy during the novice protection period and the safest time doesn't mean you have a long life, right?"
"You can't be lazy when you're in danger...Okay, okay, let's go out for a walk in the afternoon, maybe you can find some good things. Don't forget to look for it, and come back in the evening to exchange supplies." Li Wenxi was obviously not interested. Gao, but still followed his advice.
Indeed, she doesn't have Xu Xin's ability, so she may not gain anything at all if she goes out and wanders around.
Even if there was something good, she couldn't think of Xu Xin seeing it at a glance. She could only bring something back based on her feelings and evaluate it.
After hanging up the phone and drying his clothes, he put on his clothes, rested for another half an hour, got down from the tree house, and walked in the opposite direction from when he came.
But not long after, he stopped. Other survivors may not be able to see it, but he, who has the ability to discern, can see it and see this obvious dividing line.
Within the dividing line, where he is now, it is full of greenery, at least half of it is green resources. Outside the dividing line, there are basically patches of white, with occasional green spots.
He looked back and saw that he was about a kilometer away from the lake. His ability is only about one kilometer, and now he can barely see the green light emitted by the lake, indicating that the distance has reached its limit.
Looking at the vast expanse of white outside the dividing line, he hesitated for a moment and decided to give up and walk out of this resource area. The distance between resource areas will definitely not be close. Even if you go out, it will be difficult to find the next resource area. You can only waste time in the ocean of low-level resources. It is better to wait until later.
And before, he just walked around the lake and did not explore the entire resource area. Now it seems that it is time to explore it more carefully.
Xu Xin spent the entire afternoon exploring the entire resource area. The resource area is indeed a resource area. There are so many good things. He found another blue-quality orange tree.
[Orange (blue): A fruit that can be eaten directly, with a sweet and sour taste, and has the effect of invigorating the spirit. You will feel energetic 1 hour after eating without side effects]
Full of energy? What's the use? Xu Xin was a little disappointed, like adrenaline? Hmm, maybe eating one can cause a small universe to explode in a dangerous moment?
No matter what, it was blue quality material. Xu Xin thought about it and picked all the oranges. After all, it was a little far from his tree house, and he didn’t know what animals would be after the novice protection period expired. Will you eat the orange? Anyway, let’s pick it first.
And according to his observation, the red berries he picked did not change much in two days in such hot weather, but ordinary red berries had softened and changed a bit, so they should be blue-quality food. The shelf life of materials is longer.
There were hundreds of oranges in this orange tree, but he couldn't take them all back, and he was afraid that they would spoil if he picked them all, so he repeated his old trick and only packed 30 oranges in his clothes, and then he opened one and ate it.
When he ate it, he didn't feel any effect. He just felt that the oranges were more delicious than the other oranges he had eaten before. When he finished the last piece, a cool feeling instantly rushed to his brain, making him shiver. , the mental fatigue seemed to disappear in an instant. Although the physical fatigue was still there, he felt that it didn't matter, he could still be high!
This... this is simply a magical tool for working overtime and staying up late!
Taking advantage of this momentum, Xu Xin quickly took the remaining oranges back to the tree house, which was less than a kilometer away and returned in a few minutes. Putting the oranges on the table on the third floor, he continued to go down to look for supplies.
The efficiency of this hour was not very high. Although he did not explore the entire resource area, he still gained a lot.
[Jujube (green): A fruit that can be eaten directly. The taste is sour and can be eaten as a snack! 】
[Yangmei (green): A fruit that can be used directly. The taste is sour and not very delicious, but it can be used to make wine. 】
[Pleurotus eryngii (green): A kind of wild fungus with thick flesh, crisp and tender texture, edible and rich nutritional value. It is recommended to be eaten after cooking. 】
[Black fungus (green): a kind of wild fungus, tender and delicious, edible, rich in nutritional value, it is recommended to be eaten after cooking. 】
I didn't find anything special, but I found a bunch of edible ingredients. Thinking about it, it is still in the protection period, there are no animals on land, and there are only so many things that can be obtained from plants. This period is actually a time for survivors to choose the location of the tree house, and they want to obtain many advanced resources. It is indeed overthinking.
At this time, Xu Xin felt that her spirit gradually retreated from a relatively excited state and became less energetic. He knew that this hour had passed.
Feeling the changes in his body, he felt surprised, because he was still more energetic than before eating that orange, as if he had just woken up from a nap.
This... Could it be that the no side effects in the description of this orange (blue) means that this hour not only refreshes his spirit, but also restores his spirit at a speed equivalent to sleeping for this hour?
It is simply a 996 artifact, an all-night artifact, and the favorite of capitalists!
Suddenly Xu Xin no longer felt that this thing was useless.
What a great substitute for sleep!
I don’t know how long it will take for these things to grow back after being picked, but judging from the introduction of poplar seeds, it can grow into a poplar tree in 10 days, so these things should not be too slow.
After exploring for so long, Xu Xin roughly grasped the scope of this resource area. It is roughly a square area with a side length of about one kilometer. Don't look at the land of only one square kilometer. In square meters, there are a total of one hundred Ten thousand square meters, 1,500 acres of land, the resources above would be completely inexhaustible if they were only provided to Xu Xin alone.
But one thing that made him a little disappointed and a little relieved was that there didn't seem to be any other survivor's treehouses around.
"Huh?" Through the shadows of the trees, Xu Xin saw the blue light looming again. He hurriedly walked over there.
[Higher Poplar Tree (Blue): A higher-level poplar tree, which can be harvested to obtain high-grade wood. 】
Another tall poplar tree was discovered.
"Wait!" Xu Xin looked at the land under the poplar tree and saw that the land was emitting blue light. (End of chapter)
