Chapter 17: Mysterious ruins, keep hoarding!
[Feng Mengyue: Because there is no specific tool to measure time, based on the angle of the sun, the time I entered the ruins was about eight o'clock in the morning]
[Feng Mengyue: The ruins The outside is shrouded by a layer of fog, but when you get closer, you can barely see what's going on inside]
Looking at Feng Mengyue's private message two days ago, Su Mo nodded.
In terms of time and the shape of the ruins, everyone seemed to be similar. Pulling his thoughts downward, Somo continued to look.
[Feng Mengyue: After entering the ruins, when I came to my senses, I found that I was standing in a building, surrounded by the explosion-proof glass that was traded to you. I tried to look outside through the window, but was blocked by The fog blocked me, so I didn’t dare to go out later. I kept holding a few pieces of explosion-proof glass until two hours later, and then automatically exited the ruins]
[Feng Mengyue: After leaving the ruins, about two hours passed. Hours later, it was exactly the same as in the ruins]
[Feng Mengyue: Although there is no way to get out of the ruins, I can be sure that this ruins is definitely not our earth]
Seeing Feng Mengyue After Yue's private message, Sumo's face darkened and he felt something was wrong.
The time when the first two ruins appeared matches the appearance of the ruins.
But the last three are completely different. Not only Feng Mengyue, but also everyone who has entered the ruins in the chat records orally stated that the place where they appeared was inside the building.
Only Somo appeared in a wasteland and had to break through the farmer's wall to enter the yard.
Furthermore, Sumo has a 99% probability that the place he entered must have something to do with the earth.
[Sumo: Why are you so sure? 】
With a thought in his mind, after sending this sentence, Sumo's thoughts were flowing in his heart. He held the white porcelain teacup in his hand and thought secretly.
On the other side, in a slightly damp underground base, the woman leaning against the wall laughed as she watched the news on the screen.
Illuminating the firelight, the woman's bright white teeth and sweet smile show no trace of the embarrassment of other survivors.
If Sumo could see it now, he would definitely recognize that the woman in front of him is Feng Mengyue.
Feng Mengyue did not reply immediately. Instead, she sent a message to others on the private message interface.
After a while, four people walked into the underground base.
There were three men and one woman, all of them tall and tall, with firm faces, not like ordinary people.
"How is it, Yueyue, what do you say about Sumo?"
The woman who came in said anxiously at the first moment. After hearing the name Sumo, the other three men also He showed an expectant look.
"It's hard to say that Sumo is very cautious. I judge that he is very strong. He has already left the safe house and explored it." Feng Mengyue shook her head slightly.
Everyone was silent.
Feng Mengyue continued: "He bought glass before to strengthen his shelter, and he has a steady stream of water resources. Logically speaking, ordinary people should live by guarding the gold mine and slowly developing it, but Sumo didn't, so he still braved the risks. Entering the ruins proves that he is not an ordinary person."
"What should we do? Can we still win him over to join our team?" The man with the scar on the left face said anxiously, a little uneasy.
"Let's take it one step at a time. Now we don't have transportation, and it's impossible to move. That is, we can only be connected if we are close."
[Feng Meng] Yue: Su Shen, right? It’s not like you haven’t seen the properties of that glass. Where can we find this kind of technology on earth? It’s almost like magic. Besides, there are other people in our team who have walked out of their own buildings. Having seen the outside world, if Su Shen considers joining our team, this information can be shared together]
Looking at Feng Mengyue's reply, Su Mo shook his head and laughed dumbly.
It's not that he's not afraid of loneliness, or that he's afraid of these people harming him. At this stage, it's basically impossible to form a team except for the short distance.
And if he joins the team, the value he can provide for a while is the psionic water in his hand.
This is not a good deal compared to buying and selling.
After privately sending 100ml of psionic water information to Feng Mengyue as a reward, Sumo closed the private message.
"When I enter the ruins next time and I am still different from others, I will try to buy information from others. There is no rush for now"
The biggest danger at present is the unknown cycle of disasters. The prerequisite for exploring the ruins is to ensure the safety of the shelter.
I am afraid that if I am not careful, my refuge will be breached by disaster, I will lose my wife and lose my troops.
After thinking for a while, Sumo collected his thoughts and began to continue building the shelter.
At present, the acquisition of iron is almost done, but the initial shelter cannot be made entirely of iron.
The strength of the iron shelter is not high. Although it will form a Faraday cage to resist lightning, its practicality is actually very low. Under ideal conditions, reinforced concrete is the optimal solution.
Opening the supplies column, Sumo began to sort out the purchased resources.
The first is iron. I have collected 130 units intermittently before. I used 6 units to build the iron stove, leaving 124 units left.
The second is wood. Because we entered the ruins, there is no logging today, and there is currently only one unit left in stock.
Plant fibers and stones, all exhausted.
Soil 6 units.
After adding the nether energy water, cooking pots, buying meat for cooking and paying Feng Mengyue, there is still 1.8L left. I don't plan to save this water soma.
Nether energy water has a fixed output every day, but the materials are different and need to be manually collected and sold.
Sumo kept an eye on it. The current trading system was really buggy. Not only did it have no restrictions, it could also teleport objects.
This mechanism is of little use in the short term. In the future, it will inevitably be controlled by financial professionals.
As soon as they enter and exit, by taking advantage of the price difference, these financial people can fool ordinary people.
The survival game will naturally not sit back and let these people break the rules.
After the novice stage, the trading system will definitely be subject to some restrictions or simply banned.
And the most critical trading items, water and food, will definitely return to normal as time goes by.
At that time, it was even more difficult to take advantage of the asymmetry of resources and gain development advantages.
After thinking about this, Sumo opened the trading panel and started scanning goods.
Rare items, no one has listed them for sale yet.
Go to common materials and sort by unit price.
Plane away wood, soil and food fiber, and stones are the cheapest resources currently on the market.
It takes about 15-20 minutes to collect one unit of stones on the Great Plains.
Miners near the mine can mine a piece in about 5 minutes.
So to calculate the resource value based on labor force, one unit of stone requires 5ml of water resources.
Just calculating the account in his mind, Sumo couldn't help shouting angrily:
"It's really a black mine, no, not even a capitalist black mine. How dare you do this?”
After digging stones for an hour under the bright sun, you can only get 60ml of water.
That’s just two mouthfuls of water!
This is also the reason why many miners rest during the day and go out to mine at night.
The scorching heat of the sun during the day consumes too much energy, and 60ml of water cannot make up for one hour's consumption.
Only at night these water resources are enough to sustain the miners' basic life needs.
The more he analyzed, the more Sumo understood about the situation of other people in the last days.
Sumo suppressed his inner anger, took a deep breath and said:
"The game of life!"
It is essentially a game-like survival world, but behind it is a world of survival. Both eyes longed to live.
Mining is just a miserable life!
If you don’t mine, you will die!
Of course, these miners are still the most prosperous people among ordinary people. They live in a large plain like Somo and have no mines to dig.
You can only cut down trees, and the resources you get in return are even less, which may not be enough to sustain a person's daily survival.
Shaking his head slightly disappointed, pretending to have forgotten the many images that flashed through his mind just now, Sumo whispered.
"If you are poor, you can be alone, and if you are rich, you can help the world. Consider it my insignificant contribution."
According to the market price, the exchange of his psionic water and ordinary water The ratio is 1 to 1.3.
However, Sumo did not exchange it, but directly used the nether energy water to start shopping.
The monopoly business is too profitable. I only spent 1L of psionic water to buy back up to 200 units of stone.
Sumo took out 500ml of the remaining 800ml of water and exchanged it all for food for storage.
When it comes to food selection, Sumo adheres to the principles of easy storage, filling, salty, and not easy to spoil, and all of them choose bread.
Together with the remaining 8 kilograms of large bread panels, the current inventory of bread is now 14 kilograms.
Looking at the supplies piled up in the inventory, Sumo, who had been depressed because of the human condition, gradually regained his confidence and said calmly:
"Although relying on the system is not my real ability, who can say what will happen in the future? You know, as long as I am alive, humankind will never become extinct."
"One day, I will become stronger and live longer!"
"Maybe. I can. Create a super shelter that cannot be shaken by any natural disaster!"
Suma's tone became more and more calm.
Oreo, who was lying on guard on the other side, also turned around at the right time and screamed, indicating that he also had a share of this burden!
