Snap!
Crack!
A bundle of reeds was moved into the corner of the studio by several people and stored and stacked together.
Fortunately, the weight of the storage module is only one-tenth. Otherwise, even if the weight of white rice is only half, two hundred kilograms is still a very troublesome number.
After greeting the three of them to rest first, Qi Jie turned his head and obviously found that Su Mo was also in a good mood.
By the way, I also saw a few sandboards piled in the corner.
"Lord, what is this?"
"I can't be idle while you are busy. I will use it on my way tomorrow. You will know it then."
From the alien race After receiving an unexpected one thousand two hundred points, Sumo was certainly in a good mood.
Although fifty survival points were spent on preparation, it seemed a bit luxurious.
But he knew very well that there might be a market for food resources until the end of the race, but the business of selling water would definitely not last long, and it was likely that it would stop after a large number of contestants found the oasis.
It is more important to gain more points early and form a lead.
“That’s right.”
“We cooked the white rice for them and sent it over, otherwise it would look like I was stingy.”
I realized that Qi Jie was going to use it. Dry rice as a reward, Soma waved off.
Four hundred kilograms of reeds can be used to make more than three hundred kilograms of white rice, making a lot of money.
We have to cook anyway, so we might as well cook them together.
"In addition, these plant meats are also added to cook, and the energy bars made are also crushed and put in."
A large number of points have been added to the account, and supplies are no longer tight.
Su Mo made generous arrangements, and his arrogance made Qi Jie, who was used to a hard life, speechless for a moment.
But soon, he also understood the reason for Somo's arrangement.
Although fighting between players is prohibited in the main game, some other aspects of competition are not prohibited.
For example, collecting supplies, such as moving forward as a group.
There is no definite interest to unite scattered individuals, just relying on some fictitious names.
When encountering difficulties, they will fall apart immediately.
And the three people who want to be called "Brother Qi" will always be united around them.
There must be necessary beatings, but the rewards cannot be stingy.
"Brother Qi, I have seen the efforts of the three of you today. You have spent a lot of money this time."
"I won't need your water to cook the rice later. The condiments are also given away for free."
Qi Jie set up the iron pot and said in a bold manner.
It immediately attracted a burst of praise, and the three of them were so happy that they ran forward and back, eager to go out and collect reeds again.
As the rice cooking water boils, the sweet aroma of energy bars comes out.
Take advantage of the night.
The five people eating the same meal were all full-bellied and felt an unprecedented sense of happiness.
But for the four aliens guarding the sand dunes not far away, it was a great torture.
"It smells so good, it smells so good. I want to eat it too."
"You can eat whatever you want. It's not enough if there's water. I'll at least wait until all the water is sold before I give it to you."
>"Don't, we only sold two bottles today, I won't starve to death after selling them all."
"Oh, not even a catwoman is hungry, why are you hungry alone?"< br>
“No! I’m hungry too!”
The biggest characteristic of humanoid aliens is that they have habits that resemble humans.
Including food, it is also very different from human preferences.
That is why it is necessary to grab land to grow crops and expand the size of the race and the material warehouse.
“We made sixty points today, which is a good start.”
“When the scale expands, we can also have enough to eat!”
Abe said with confidence.
One afternoon, an alien passed by nearby, and the two men found an alien.
According to the purchase price of one bottle of 120 points, two bottles of water are sold for 150 points, and the net profit for a single bottle is 30 points.
By the way, we have also agreed on the possible supply locations in the future, focusing on sustainable development.
Of course, it would be fine even if the other party found out that the water was bought from human Soma.
A foreigner who is alone does not have one thousand or two hundred points to buy ten bottles at a time.
If you buy it alone, if you get 150 points, you won’t lose money if you buy it from them.
"Oh, what a bunch of ignorant guys who only know how to meet basic needs."
"This kind of trash, even if he followed the human Soma to Kirishima, he would still be cannon fodder."
The three of them were planning a bright future, but the iron tower beside them was disdainful.
If he hadn't wanted to follow the favorites to win the championship, he would have chosen to leave the three of them behind.
As a qualified dwarf ironsmith, let alone not eating or drinking for three days, even ten days is fine.
And he had eaten and drank enough before setting off, so he had no problem persisting until the end of the desert.
Sniffed the fragrance in the air.
Tieta swallowed, and finally closed his eyes and buried his face directly in the sand.
"Oh, even if I die, I won't take a bite of him!"
A night of silence.
The raging storm gradually subsided in the early morning, heralding the end of the minor natural disaster.
I am tired after a whole day and full of food and drink.
Not only did the four of them sleep soundly this time, but even Somo also rarely slept soundly, feeling as if his whole body was a little more relaxed.
"In this race, I don't have to consider the pressure from the outside world. It's really easy."
Under the ray of sunlight that had just risen on the horizon, Sumo stood up.
There is no absolute pressure to survive.
For others, the earth-fire desert was like a nightmare, but to him, it was like coming to compete.
Click.
Click.
As he moved his body, there was a crackling sound from the stiff joints.
Take out the manual, and the eye-catching race points at the top have reached 1850 points.
In addition to the original two hundred points, another thirty points were given for the fire source task last night, and twenty points were given for the drinking water task.
One thousand, two hundred points earned from Catwoman Abe, and four hundred points earned from surviving the sandstorm.
As long as you meet a merchant, you can immediately buy two modular items worth one thousand points.
“It’s not unclear, but I’m shocked. Based on the current objects, I’m afraid the value of Magu’s oil well would have to be at least 8,000 points, or even 10,000 points to buy it, right?”
Sumo clicked his tongue inwardly.
What is recorded in Magu's notes is that he also entered an arena similar to the current mode.
Finally, with the competition of tens of thousands of people, the oil well was successfully brought out.
At the time, I didn’t think it was very difficult, but now when you compare it with the number of points, it’s a little scary.
In addition, the module box that can make the adventurer terminal is also extremely valuable.
You need at least 10,000 points, or even more points to buy it.
“I earned a thousand points yesterday and thought I would be able to live comfortably, but I didn’t expect that I am still a pauper after all.
There are only twenty-six days left, so I have to speed up my point collection. .”
Sumo thought to himself.
The 400 points of income after surviving the minor natural disaster would be a waste to spend on merchants.
Even a thousand-point modular item won't provide much help without upgrading. But on the contrary, four hundred points is enough to buy eight kilograms of white rice from him.
Save your food, you don’t have to worry about food at all in this race.
"Get up, we have to set off quickly before it gets too hot."
Call Qi Jie, and the three people "next door" who heard the noise also woke up quickly and ran to the burial place last night. Take a look at the collector area.
There are no surprises, or the stability is terrible.
The amount of fresh water collected after one night is still the same, and there is no deviation due to temperature.
The additional income of another four hundred points finally made the three of them less nervous and felt a little more confident.
While Qi Jie came to cook, Guan Mao came up.
“Brother Qi, did Lord Su say how far we have to go today?”
“Yes, if we are not in a hurry, we can collect some reeds this morning. ."
Zhang Jun and Xi Ruyue also looked eager, obviously they were a little addicted to "earning points" yesterday.
"I'm afraid this won't work. We already had a day off yesterday, which delayed the progress."
Qi Jie stirred the white rice in the pot with his hands behind his back, a look of embarrassment on his face.
"The lord said last night that our goal today is 120 kilometers. We must make up for the progress we missed during yesterday's rest and rush to the third stage."
"In addition, the next step For several days, it cannot be less than 100 kilometers every day, and it is necessary to reach the entrance of the next terrain before the large-scale natural disaster arrives. "
The large-scale natural disaster will arrive on the ninth day, and now there is still a long way to go from the exit. A total of four hundred and fifty kilometers.
“If we continue to delay, there are eight terrains behind us, and there is no time to go to Kirishima!”
The words fell.
The three of them looked startled, and then they remembered the time limit and the goal of the main competition.
“But. One hundred and twenty kilometers.” Xi Ruyue was the first to look confused.
Yesterday, her route ability was of little use in collecting earthfire reeds. As a result, at dawn, she turned around and returned to her most disadvantaged route.
If the goal of 120 kilometers is really achieved, I am afraid she will be the first to fall behind.
"Don't worry. Whoever the lord is, he has naturally considered the difficulties.
And it's one hundred and twenty kilometers, do you still want to walk there with both feet?
Relax, Yesterday, the lord made a few temporary sails and sandboards for traveling.
If you want to go forward with us, just buy them when the time comes."
Qi Jie said earnestly, without even thinking. He looked back at the boiling rice in the pot.
It wasn't until all the caressing above was wiped off with reed stalks that he turned his head expressionlessly.
“If you don’t want to follow and want to save points to buy a few things to take back to the territory, you can also go slowly.”
“Now that you have a device to collect water, buy it Some white rice may not be able to support a few more terrains.”
Yesterday’s favor is a reward.
Now the advice is of course to beat.
The three of them suddenly looked at each other, and for a moment they were confused and began to think about the pros and cons.
Speaking of the goals of this trip, with their strength, they definitely don’t have to think about the rewards in the finals.
If you can walk more terrain and find more opportunities to bring back to the territory, you will be successful.
But Sumo is definitely different from them, his goal is definitely the ultimate prize.
Following means taking on pressure.
But don’t follow
Think of the experiences of the past three days, and then think about the consequences if you don’t choose to follow.
"Don't worry, wait until you are full before making a decision. This breakfast is a gift from the lord."
"It should be your reward for your hard work in collecting earthfire reeds yesterday."
After covering the pot, Qi Jie stood up.
The aroma of boiling rice came from the pot, and the three of them swallowed their saliva again and again.
“Have you decided yet?”
I said that I had to wait until the meal was finished, but in fact, I made my decision before the rice was cooked.
Knocking on the small door of the studio, the three of them stood neatly, nodding their heads up and down.
Unlike Magu’s arena, even ordinary people can enter and participate.
Nowadays, contestants who can make it all the way to the main competition will basically start with hundreds of thousands, millions, or even millions or nearly ten million people in their territory.
Like a scattered person, the route level is low and the information is blocked.
It is difficult to get through a knockout match, let alone several consecutive knockout matches in the following day.
As for the Blazing Fire Territory, which has a population of more than 800,000, and the Mengyue Territory, which has a population of 600,000.
If they stay, they may be able to collect one or two thousand points to buy a modular device.
But for the territory, this device is unlikely to be of much help.
It’s not much help to them.
But if you follow Somo, even if you don't bring anything back in the end, the experience is definitely worth recalling.
And the growth gained through experience cannot be measured by specific points.
“Okay, this is a sail board. Originally, I wanted to sell it for 500 points.”
"But since you are willing to follow, one card will cost you four hundred points."
Pointing to the five pairs of sand boards facing each other in the corner.
Sumo was not afraid that the three of them thought that this sandboard was made just for the points they gained.
"Qi Jie, take a pair out and try it out."
"Okay."
Qi Jie, who had been curious about the sand board for a long time, immediately became energetic.
About twenty minutes passed, and the four of them came back, suppressing the ecstasy in their hearts.
"It's so easy to use. Lord, you are simply amazing!"
Yesterday, there was a sandstorm and the wind direction was disordered. The sail and sandboard could save 30% of the effort.
Not to mention returning to normal, it will help when the wind direction is stable.
A test will save at least half the effort.
And the most important thing is to improve the efficiency, making it easier for the wearer to travel long distances.
In the past, walking sixty or seventy kilometers would tire a person to death.
Now that we have this sandboard, even a few more people will be confident, let alone 120 kilometers away.
“As long as it’s easy to use, just finish your meal and get ready to go.”
It's getting brighter now, and the temperature in the desert has begun to rise.
Su Mo smiled and nodded. Although his tone was calm, it revealed a convincing calmness.
According to the price of 400 points per person, the three boards sold for a high price of 1,200 points.
Including Qi Jie’s four hundred, this is another sixteen hundred points recorded.
There is only the last fifteen hundred points left to save five thousand to bring in things from the outside world.
"With the power stone engine, you will have the ability to create a vehicle that can move quickly in the next terrain."
"The faster you move, the more contestants you can find!"
< br>After a simple breakfast, Sumo sent Qi Jie to explain the next route to Catwoman Abe.
According to the alien race’s foot strength and magical abilities, it is not difficult to keep up with the progress of ordinary contestants.
But now that we have a sailboard, it is difficult to keep up easily.
But as long as the direction is correct, there will definitely be no problem for the two men.
Sumo was not worried that the newly opened trade route would have to be reopened because of falling behind.
"Okay, they can definitely keep up."
After receiving the exact news, Somo put away the micro workshop, and the group began to put on the sailboards.
With the blessing of the wind, an unprecedented sense of lightness suddenly came.
