There is no water.
But are there modular micro studios?
And judging from the reactions of several people, it seems that they don’t know about modularity?
Sumo paused, with a strange look on his face.
Perhaps it is because the game process has been completely different from before under the influence of several major events.
Various modular items should be used as rewards for surviving disasters, attracting players to perform in disasters, but because players in the deep sea have already skipped too many disasters, the game has also changed the rewards for natural disasters.
As a result, low-level players like Magu were able to obtain modular items when the game was launched the first few times.
But now the top players on Earth are confused and have never even heard of modularity.
“Bring it over and let me take a look.”
Taking the sales list, Sumo lowered his eyelids and focused on the words.
[Tools: Modular multifunctional shovel (300 points) Inventory: 2]
[Tools: Modular food processor (400 points); Inventory: 2]
[Survival facilities: modules Miniature studio (1000 points); Inventory: 1]
[Survival facilities: Modular camping base (5000 points); Inventory: 1]
[Special items: external items Coupon (5000 points); Inventory: 1】
[Number of refreshes: 0]
[Use 50 points to refresh products, and there will be a small probability of refreshing more similar products. 】
【The more refresh times, the probability of refreshing high-quality similar products will increase. 】
Sure enough, there is no food and no fresh water.
They are all modular items!
Sumo's pupils dilated slightly and he suppressed the shock in his heart.
Leave aside the magical Adventurer Terminal.
The Magu oil well alone has brought huge help to the territory, providing a lot of asphalt for road paving every day.
“If we can bring out dozens or hundreds of modular items, I won’t feel bad even if I try to dismantle and damage a few units in the future!”
This is the first time I’ve seen so many. With the modular facilities in front of us, it would be false to say that we are not impressed.
However, the points sold later
The cheapest shovel costs 300 points, and the two most expensive survival facilities even cost 5,000 points.
“The price is really expensive!”
“If you can only rely on tasks to provide points, I’m afraid I will only be able to buy one or two items until the end.”
Su Mo frowned. He looked away, thinking in his mind.
Putting aside modular items, bringing things in from the outside actually costs 5,000 points.
If you participate in the main competition step by step, even if you can complete all the daily tasks and complete the challenge tasks on every terrain, the maximum points you will get in the end will be ten thousand or twenty thousand.
It is enough for ordinary contestants, it can even be said to be wealthy.
But for him, for Tianyuan territory.
Not enough!
"Let's not talk about other opportunities in the main race. This businessman is a huge treasure."
"How can you enter the treasure mountain and come back empty-handed!"
Su Mo's heart moved. Then I thought.
Completing tasks step by step to earn points is one way.
But outside of this, let’s think differently.
Assuming that points can be continuously collected from each player, one person will be calculated based on the minimum standard of fifty per day.
A hundred people can receive 5,000 points every day to purchase a large modular item.
Thirty days, that’s thirty pieces of foundation!
And if the number of people doubled or tripled, it would be unimaginable what they could bring out.
“Others are trying to eliminate competitors, but I am the only one who wants to keep everyone alive until the end.”
Suddenly thinking of the first pot of gold he earned from selling water in the early days of the wasteland, Sumo felt a little regretful.
What if the game puts everyone together and relies on water generators to make and sell water.
Although it is a bit luxurious to need five points every time, it is easy to accumulate the first pot of gold.
With a leading advantage, you can purchase more modular items from merchants and continue to expand your advantage.
When we arrive at Kirishima later.
There is a high probability that you have already made a lot of money, and the advantages are infinite.
“This is the way to compete in the main competition.”
“Points, I need to earn as many points as possible in the shortest possible time!”
Looking towards The three people with dull faces looked at the two centaurs not far away who were also a little tired.
Sumo nodded slightly.
It’s not too late to realize that you want to make money from others, even if there are eight types of terrain besides the desert.
There is plenty of time, there are still twenty-nine days.
The simplest ways to make money are just a few.
Either supplies or equipment.
But let’s not talk about the equipment for now. Because fighting is not allowed, the weapons and equipment that are easiest to sell for money are definitely not very popular. No one will be stupid enough to spend a lot of points in the early stage to buy a final to use it. equipment.
Survival assistance is also very difficult. Sumo doesn't even have one, and he doesn't even see the materials for making it. There is no way to make it and sell it to others.
After such elimination, only materials are left.
There are many kinds of supplies, but there are definitely two types that are most in demand right now.
Eat and drink!
“Drink, there is a generator, even if you spend more special survival points.”
"Eat"
Suma stood up and left, walking towards the nearest small black plant.
This is what I saw on the sand dunes just now, growing naked in the desert.
Looking closer at this time, it looks like a common desert reed.
The slender stem is about twenty centimeters long. There is a thin layer of leaves on the stem. The edges of the leaves are serrated and the surface is smooth.
However, unlike common reeds, the stems of this plant are now dark brown.
The leaves wrapped on it are also a little black, and the fine hairs move with the wind, which makes people feel a little scared.
After pondering for a moment, before Sumo could call out the system appraisal, the manual in his trouser pocket suddenly vibrated slightly.
“Huh?”
Take out the manual, and a new prompt appears.
[Record]: It was detected that contestant ‘Suma’ discovered a new plant. Is it identified?
[Record]: There is no charge for the first appraisal of the day, and 10 points will be charged for each subsequent appraisal.
Does this function exist?
After confirming that there would be no charge for the first time, Sumo nodded lightly.
The next second, the booklet turns pages automatically.
On the fourth blank page, a new category suddenly appeared at the top.
[Plant: Earthfire Reed]
[Description]: A special plant that grows in the Earthfire Desert. It can survive in an arid environment. Its roots can go deep into the ground to find water sources. The leaves also have good water retention capabilities. The rhizome is edible and is rich in protein, fiber and minerals, but due to some special reasons, it may cause side effects after consumption.
[Category]: Desert drought-tolerant plants (edible)
[Height]: 15-25cm
[Side effects]: Fire (the special substance contained in the earth fire reed will quickly consume the water in the human body. Please make sure that you have reserved enough water in your body before eating, otherwise your life will be in danger)
What a pit!
The only food, actually consumes water in the body of the eater?
Huh.
Sumo once again had a profound understanding of the degree of evil in the game and the difficulty of this competition.
No wonder contestants are given a chance to get a free appraisal every day.
It would be difficult for an uninformed person to get through the first stage and see this reed and try it.
It feels great when you keep it and eat it, but you will have to be forcibly eliminated after a while.
Thinking of this, Somo quickly stood up and looked at the other plants next to him.
Sure enough, the second stage is all about this earth fire reed, other than that there is no difference from the previous stage.
"Wherever there are plants, there must be water below." "But this thing is just growing naked on the surface. I'm afraid it's not another hole dug by the game."
Sumo tried When the root system of this reed was pulled out, it was twice as long as the previous one, a full fifty centimeters.
But obviously, there will never be any water source fifty centimeters underground.
The other side.
The two centaurs must have arrived a step earlier and had already checked the properties of the Earth Fire Reed, so they just stood warily near the merchant, as if watching from the sidelines.
After seeing Somo studying plants, Guan Mao and the others quickly patted their heads and stood up.
He walked to the nearest reed, and the three of them took out the manual and made an identification.
The answer is yes.
After reading the attributes displayed in the manual, the three of them collapsed on the ground, their faces ashen.
True, if one hundred and twenty kilometers is the limit of a stage.
If they can survive to the third stage, they may encounter a turning point.
But now the merchants don’t sell water. Although the only food on the ground can satisfy hunger, it consumes more water!
Water, where does water come from?
Sitting helplessly on the ground, the three of them had distracted eyes and thought of quitting the competition.
This first terrain is so abnormal, I really don’t dare to think about how to survive the next eight terrains.
They are not like Su Shen, who can make a homemade water collecting device to get water on the first day.
Wait for Su Shen!
Xi Ruyue suddenly sat up, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes.
If she is now alone in the desert and has spent all her points, this is indeed a dead end.
But when I opened the manual, I saw that the four hundred and twenty points clearly stated in the account could not be faked.
And unlike other contestants, she was followed by the human Su Shen.
As long as you spend points and find a way to reach the third stage, you still have a chance to make a comeback!
"I'm going to buy water, will you go?"
"Buy it, where can I buy it? Do I have to go back to the merchant on the first day to buy it?" Guan Mao shook his head subconsciously.
"No, the merchant only keeps it for one day. He will be gone when you go back."
Zhang Jun on the ground also waved his hand, seemingly not even wanting to move.
“You don’t want to buy it from Su Shen, do you? To be honest, what I collected last night may not be enough for the two of them to reach the next stage. Where is there room to sell to you.”
“Forget it if I don’t go.”
The two people on the ground were messing around, but Xi Ruyue was unwilling to give up just like that.
Her route is 'Reader'. As long as she sees novel things beyond her cognition, she will gain experience, and upgrading can provide all kinds of weird special abilities.
When I discovered this earth fire reed just now, the level 7 experience bar jumped up by a quarter.
Assuming you can stick to one or two terrains and discover more new plants or animals, it may not be impossible to reach level ten.
“If God doesn’t save me, I will save myself.”
“Su Shen.”
Looking at Soma who was still studying the reed on the ground.
Xi Ruyue immediately stopped hesitating, stood up and walked over.
“Do you want to change the water?”
Raising his head, Sumo had a flash of understanding in his eyes, without much surprise.
Businessmen do not sell water, and the reeds on the ground increase water consumption.
The only way to survive until the next stage is to ask for help.
“I don’t need much, just five hundred. No, three hundred, two hundred will do!”
“As long as I can survive to the next stage, in addition to the guaranteed points Besides, I can give them all to you!"
Xi Ruyue gritted her teeth and took out her booklet to show the number of points.
There is no doubt that compared to the moral kidnapping method that ordinary survivors are accustomed to, this kind of sincerity is really good.
Considering the current strength, there is really no need to fear anyone or any force.
Sumo didn't bother to pretend to ask and nodded immediately.
"I'll charge you one hundred points and give you a bottle of water, five hundred milliliters, okay?"
Just getting four hundred points seems like a lot at the moment, but With a shortfall of five thousand points, it is not worth mentioning.
Between one-shot trading and long-term harvest, Sumo chose the latter without hesitation.
After all, as long as these three people can follow him all the way, continue to get the mission points rewarded by the game, and then change hands.
The points that can be provided in the end are definitely several times more than four hundred points.
“A bottle of water?”
Xi Ruyue was still extremely worried.
At this moment, when I heard the affirmative answer, I suddenly felt like crying.
"No problem, no problem, I'll transfer it to you right now!"
A bottle of water, priced at 50 points according to the merchant, just touches the minimum limit of the game's guaranteed help.
However, the game does not restrict players from raising prices for help.
As Sumo finished speaking, a line of prompts appeared on Xi Ruyue's manual.
Confirm.
Seeing his points rise from three hundred points to four hundred, Somo nodded slightly.
"Qi Jie, come and set up a tent!"
"Okay!"
Qi Jie, who was still studying how to eat the earth fire reed, raised his head, with a smile in the corner of his eye. Uncontrollable smile.
He could clearly hear the conversation between the two of them just now.
Thinking of the hard life in the past, I suddenly felt like I was living a second life.
He was not like Xi Ruyue in the past. He could only survive by praying for charity and kindness from others.
Even if I later formed the Harvest Tribe, I was always under pressure and never felt relaxed for a moment.
But now, we are in the even more dangerous Ten Thousand Trails Race, in this endless desert of earth and fire.
“It turns out that I have this day too!”
After pitching the tent and looking up at the sunset, Qi Jie felt an unprecedented peace of mind and relaxation.
This is the feeling of having a backbone, this is the feeling of having a tall man withstand the pressure.
It feels so good to not have to use your brain!
"What are you thinking about? Go ask her for the bottle. We have no place to put water."
Looking at Qi Jie standing at the entrance of the tent with a silly smile, Sumo was confused.
broken!
It seems that no matter how serious a person is when they come around him, they will become very different from before.
Why is it that even the most stable Qi Jie now has a touch of sophistication in him.
"Ah, okay, I'll go right away."
As soon as he slapped his head, Qi Jie ran away and almost fell to the ground.
It looks like this.
Tsk.
Sumo shook his head slightly, his thoughts attracted by the sound of running water in the tent.
Changing places, the water production speed has resumed, and it is almost completed now.
And with Xi Ruyue's example, Guan Mao and A Jun will definitely spend money to buy water.
Come and go, three hundred points will arrive in your account.
The points for the race, which were not yet abundant at first, immediately exceeded the initial limit and reached 600 points.
This is the first pot of gold.
“Six hundred points is definitely enough to buy that ingredient processor, but it’s still unstable with only two hundred points left.”
“So.”
Unable to find other players for the time being, Sumo stared blankly.
Sweeping over the merchant, he slowly landed on the two centaurs not far away!
