With Somo's current vision and knowledge, it is indeed difficult for ordinary technological derivatives to induce too many emotional changes.
Like a water generator.
Although it is magical, you can easily get water in the barren desert by pressing the button.
But if you think about the internal principles carefully, you can basically guess the same thing.
It is nothing more than polymerizing water molecules through special materials, and then condensing them using the large temperature difference between inside and outside.
If we really have to work hard to decipher it, with the current scientific research strength of Tianyuan Territory, it might not be possible to reproduce it.
Modular items, however, are different.
No matter how many times he saw it, Sumo was still shocked from the bottom of his heart.
Buzz.
Four or five seconds later, two objects of different sizes finally solidified on the ground, revealing their true appearance.
It is the same size as an ordinary rice cooker and is an ingredient processor.
The appearance looks as ordinary as ever, a small square with sharp edges and corners, and a huge button in the middle.
The micro-studio, which is about the same size, is stacked next to it and is an irregular polygon with an eye-catching button in the middle.
For the first time, Sumo did not study how to use these two things, but tried to weigh the weight.
Fortunately, it is within the acceptable range.
The food processor weighs about four kilograms, while the micro studio weighs just over twenty kilograms.
Compared to those desert hikers on earth, they often have to carry a weight of 30 to 50 kilograms.
For humans blessed with attribute points, this weight will basically not affect the efficiency of action.
“We will be repairing in place for an hour. We will have to walk a little further when it gets darker, otherwise it will be difficult to get out of this desert before a major natural disaster strikes.”
“Also. .Qi Jie, go and collect some Earth Fire Reeds, the more the better.”
After giving simple instructions, Sumo returned to the small tent holding two modular items.
No wonder everyone in the territory wants an independent private space.
Although I can't feel the staring eyes in the sky, the vague sense of restraint still makes people uncomfortable.
“If the main matches are like this in the future, we have to find a way to block the audience’s sight in advance.”
“Otherwise, our trump cards will be exposed completely in one game. What advantage will we have after going out? ?”
After zipping up the tent, Somo withdrew his attention.
A green light flashed, and the attribute panels of the two items on the ground slowly popped up.
[Modular Food Processor (One Model)]
[Description]: A special machine manufactured using modular technology. It is highly portable and can be easily used in the wild. Process various ingredients, eliminating tedious manual operations and meeting processing needs.
[Weight]: 2.39kg
[Module level]: One module (primary reduced integrated module)
[Function]: cleaning, cutting, peeling, shredding, filtering, juicing, simple cooking.
[Charging Method]: Solar energy

[Modular micro studio (second model)]
[Description]: A creative workspace integrated using modular technology. It is highly portable when reduced and can also meet a certain level of use needs when expanded.
[Weight]: 21.25kg
[Module level]: Second module (primary reduction integrated module, primary space storage module)
[Function]: Independent space
[Charging method]: Multiple energy supply
[Evaluation]: You can think of it as a large tent for wild survival!
“One model, two models”
Two property panels, one on the left and one on the right, flashed with different text descriptions.
Sumo's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he discovered attributes that were not displayed when detecting modular items before.
“Is this the magic of modular items?”
During the previous inspection, there was no indication of what kind of modules it was equipped with.
But after upgrading to the V1.1 version, specific module details appeared.
Sumo became interested and immediately moved away from the panel, first pressing the button above the food processor.
There was a crunching sound of deformation. The square that was originally the size of a rice cooker expanded rapidly like a balloon, and the metal covering the surface also began to stretch and deform.
The cube stopped expanding until its length and width reached about eighty centimeters.
At this time, there was not much space left in the tent.
“With such a single function, it seems that this food processor is basically the simplest modular item!”
A description card fell to the ground. Sumo picked it up and looked at it briefly. , gradually understood in my heart.
Ignore the magical primary shrink integration module, the current processor is equivalent to a kitchen machine that houses many different kitchen appliances.
If you want to achieve similar abilities, you can easily create one even with the technology on earth.
And with the addition of the module
“Just put the ingredients in, select the function, and then wait at the outlet to pick it up.”
The function is simple and easy to understand, no wonder the evaluation given by the system is Some people who live alone are ecstatic about this.
For lazy people, you only need to buy the ingredients and put them in.
As soon as you take a shower, the machine will automatically clean and cut, and finally cook a delicious meal.
"I wonder if I can deal with the Earth Fire Reed?"
Take out a piece of reed that can be pinched off from his arms, and Somo tried to put it into the outlet.
The next second, the panel above the cube suddenly lit up.
‘An unnamed special plant has been detected, please choose the processing method’
‘1. Clean and squeeze the juice’
'2. Clean, cut, and cook over high heat'
'3. Clean, cut into shreds, and simply boil in water'
"Is there no way to detect the special substances in the reeds?"
Sumo felt a little disappointed.
If it were just such a simple cooking, humans could do it themselves without using machines at all.
What he wanted was to be able to deal with the negative effects of Earth Fire Reed and reduce the need for drinking water.
Or you can directly extract and decompose reeds, and then use the decomposed substances to reconstruct other foods.
Similar to the starch machine in the Gopher Shelter, different types of food can be synthesized with one click.
“But it only requires four hundred points, and every main game player can afford it.”
“If it has powerful functions, it would be unreasonable.”
You get what you pay for.
If you sell 5,000 points and only have this function, it is indeed worth complaining about.
But only four hundred points.
Sumo thought to himself, put aside the idea of upgrading for the time being, and put away the processor again.
Turn around and look at the miniature studio next to you.
There is definitely no way to open a larger studio in the small tent, so you can only go to the open space outside the tent.
Press the button and the irregular polygon makes a crackling sound.
In a few breaths, the edges and corners of the polygon did not undergo other changes during the deformation process, but were enlarged in equal proportions.
Similar to a yurt, it eventually formed a small space covering an area of about ten square meters.
“It’s amazing, it’s almost as good as the room created by the adventurer terminal!”
Sumo admired in his heart.
With the previous food processor, he didn’t have much hope for a micro studio with one thousand points.
However, I lowered my expectations and got a surprise.
Pushing open the door on the front, Somo strode inside. The interior space was bright and spacious, with only a simple table and chair placed in the corner.
On the desktop, there are instructions similar to those of the previous processor.
[Modular Micro Studio Instructions]
[The internal space of the studio is 9.68㎡, the height is 2.12m, the external material is high-strength ductile plastic, and the fixed feet are made of high-strength alloy. After unfolding, it can reach the general degree of impact. 】【The interior of the studio contains a storage module, which can store items (dead objects) weighing no more than 500 kilograms】
[After storage is completed, the storage weight is only 10% after disassembly and reduction. One part]
“Isn’t this equivalent to a miniature storage space?”
Able to accommodate items, only 10% of the weight will be realized.
Su Mo was slightly happy. This was much easier to use than the one-person windproof tent with 100 points. It would not be a problem to squeeze in more than a dozen people, and it would also have a larger space for activities. The audience's sight.
And the most important thing is that the interior space of the studio can also store some miscellaneous materials and take them away.
In the early days, it could only be transported by manpower. Now, it is simply killing two birds with one stone!
"Others, study them carefully at night when it gets dark."
"Now we have to take advantage of the dawn and hurry up as soon as possible."
More than half an hour later, Qi Jie has collected several bundles of fresh ground fire reeds and weaved two finger-thick hemp ropes.
Because of the high yield, he also deliberately removed the dry parts above and the leaves used to conserve water, leaving only the juicy stems and a short underground section.
Without the negative side effects, these stalks would have been the best food.
It can not only fill your stomach, but also replenish hard-won water.
But with the influence of earth fire, it has become a daunting "poison".
Put the stalks, the tent and the food processor into the workroom, and Somo presses the disassembly button.
There was another burst of deformation, and the huge studio suddenly returned to the shape of an irregular polygon.
“It’s really one-tenth the weight, so convenient!”
Weighing the weight again, Sumo nodded with satisfaction.
Qi Jie volunteered and tied up the polygon with hemp rope and carried it on his back.
On the other side, Sumo watched silently as he unfolded his studio, then closed it and shrunk it.
Although Xi Ruyue and the others were surprised by modular items, they suppressed their curiosity in the end.
After all, if the former has enough points, they can also make purchases.
But the latter. They really couldn't imagine how they could create bottles of fresh water out of thin air in this desert.
"Let's go!"
It was already early five o'clock in the afternoon.
With fresh water, the three of them were no longer as tired as they were in the morning, and their physical strength had been greatly restored.
Glancing at the two frightened aliens next to the businessman, Sumo discerned the direction, and the group walked forward again against the setting sun.
Compared to yesterday.
One day passed, not only the drinking water and food problems were successfully solved, but also a larger private space.
Unfortunately, there is no specific object for comparison, nor can we see the rankings among the players in the main competition.
Sumo didn't know whether his current speed was slow or fast.
However, when he saw two foreigners following him from afar, he felt like laughing.
Once upon a time, the aliens were so arrogant and domineering.
Now, I didn't expect that even the top combat power in the alien race could only be reduced to a follower.
"Speed up, we will rest after walking another thirty kilometers tonight!"
"Understood!"
It is getting dark.
The temperature in the second stage of the Earth Fire Desert has indeed dropped significantly, and it is no longer as hot as yesterday.
It was only eight o'clock in the evening, and the temperature had dropped to about fifteen degrees.
An inconspicuous hill.
The figure wearing a light yellow robe squatted on the sheltered slope, looking up from time to time at the junction line in the distance.
There, the wooden pile merchant stood on top of the hill.
Even if the night breeze is slightly cool, they are still waiting for the past participants of the main competition dutifully.
Will there be anyone at this late hour?
Some viewers in the sky above this area raised questions, and some did not understand what the figure in the robe was waiting for.
But soon, as five figures appeared in the distance, the answer was revealed.
Four men and one woman.
Two hundred and forty miles, come all the way.
The faces of the five of them all looked a little embarrassed, and they walked crookedly. It was obvious that their bodies had reached their functional limits.
However, when they saw the businessmen not far away, their behavior was no different from Xi Ruyue and the others.
First I was excited, and then I rushed over in ecstasy.
Looking at the eager look, it was obvious that he had been thirsty all the way to save money.
“What, no water!”
"How is it possible? How can the merchant not sell water? Let me see?"
"Damn, this thing really doesn't sell water. What kind of bullshit modular items are they selling?"
"We Why do you need modular items? Can you eat or drink? This guy is crazy."
"Try refreshing and see if you can get fresh water!"
"Refreshing once is enough. It costs fifty points and a bottle of water. Are you willing to spend it?”
When they saw the sales bill handed out by the merchant, the few people who were still in ecstasy were stunned.
No water, a bunch of tools and survival facilities.
Their physical strength has basically reached its limit, and it is simply impossible to reach the next stage.
This is a devastating blow to the survivors who relied on two bottles of water to survive.
In addition, the properties of the Earth Fire Reed are like a sharp knife, piercing the weak points of several people.
"Damn it, this damn game didn't say the first terrain was a desert earlier. We didn't prepare anything!"
"What can we do? Do we have to go back and buy water now?"
"That's crazy. It's more than a hundred kilometers away. If you can walk back, you might as well go to the next stage."
The five of them sat on the ground slumped, with a look of death on their faces.
Especially after a few minutes, the only woman in the team took out fifty points to refresh.
After the merchant's sales list still showed no fresh water, despair began to spread.
The current situation seems to be a dead end.
Even though they all have over 400 points in their hands, there is nowhere to spend them.
Unless
“Are you guys in need of mineral water?”
After confirming that all five people were in despair, the figure in yellow Taoist robes walked out with a smile.
As soon as it appeared, it attracted the attention of five people.
Of course, what attracted attention at this moment was not his strange attire, but the five bottles of Nongfu Spring that were clearly visible in the big pocket of his Taoist robe.
Five bottles?
The people on the ground were in a trance and almost wanted to rush out and snatch it.
But the next second I thought about the rules of the competition, I had to suppress all my evil thoughts.
"I am Cosim from the Golden Eagle Territory."
"How do you sell your water?"
A tall man stood up on the ground, sinking vocal channel.
He didn't dare to say that the five of them were actually in the same territory, for fear that this guy would start robbing people.
But the figure in the yellow robe seemed to have seen through everything, with a kind smile on his face:
“It’s not expensive, it’s not expensive, one bottle only costs two hundred and fifty points!”
