Take it easy, I'm a serious game

Chapter 20 A Request

Two days later, outside the institute.

"I think our greenhouse can still be improved."

While removing the ice bricks, Chong Niang said.

This work has been going on for two full days. The four players make ice bricks as long as the ground is dark. Even Qin Chuan, who has been tossing about dismantling electrical appliances, also joined in.

There is no other reason, but because Chen Jiu secretly adjusted the income curve of the infrastructure task.

Now, you can get 10 point for every 1 ice bricks you remove, which is higher than the income of all tasks at this stage.

"How to improve?"

Hearing what Chong Niang said, the wig asked curiously.

"Look, we first said that we would use ice bricks to build a greenhouse for the purpose of growing those light-loving plants. Now we have decided to grow mushrooms, and we also want to build a hammer ice brick."

"Just dig a hole in the ground - this thing has a better insulation effect, and you don't have to worry about the problem of ice melting."

Chen Jiu chuckled, he thought that Chong Niang really had some good ideas.

"You can pull it down quickly. Didn't you hear that NPC named Lin Shuang before? When the ice tide comes, Blizzard can even block the cave, let alone your cave."

"If it's really that good, there won't be any buildings above the ground in Xiahe Village. Wouldn't it be more convenient for everyone to live in caves?"

"Besides, although the insulation effect of the soil is good, the temperature will drop to minus 70 degrees or even minus 90 degrees during the ice tide. If you dig shallow, if you don't keep it warm, dig deep, and the lower layer will easily collapse."

"Aren't you engaged in civil engineering, and the problem of frozen soil is not considered?"

"Frozen soil is not like this. Frozen soil is harmful. What you said makes sense."

Chong Niang thought for a moment, then continued:
"But there are always solutions, such as using solid wood as a reinforced structure, such as abandoning the roof of the cave directly, and entering and exiting through tunnels, but these can only be tried after the ice tide passes."

"With the hardness of the soil now, even an excavator may not be able to dig it, but a shield machine."

"That's right, don't talk about this kid without this equipment. Besides, ice bricks are not specially used for greenhouses. Don't we have to live in them?"

Qin Chuan on the side interjected.

He swiftly took another mold from the wood fire, poured out the slightly melted ice bricks, and placed them on the half-person-high ice wall.

He is already very proficient in this job, which is the result of these two days of training.

"But one thing to say, our progress is much slower than expected. If this continues, we can barely build two igloos and one greenhouse before the ice tide arrives. I guess we still have to sleep in the research institute."

"Go to sleep, it's quite comfortable inside."

Chen Jiu sighed. He didn't want the players to build all the outposts at once. After all, there are only four players, and there is a serious shortage of labor.

"Comfortable is comfortable. I'm afraid that when the time comes, we will be blocked by snow in the cave. Isn't that purely going to jail?"

"The Ice Tide will last for four months. I can't play this game for four months. How can I suffocate to death?"

Seeing Qin Chuan's worried expression, Chen Jiu's heart skipped a beat.

That's a big problem.

If you simply consider it from the perspective of "rebuilding Chidi", the four months of OB is actually not a big deal.

But the problem is, for other players, this is a game.

There was no playable content for four full months, didn't Chunchun kill them?
AFK is almost certain to happen.

Therefore, I have to find a way as soon as possible. At least, players must be able to go out in an environment of minus 90 degrees, and they must also be able to move with content.

This is not a problem that can be solved by building infrastructure. You have to discuss it with Shuanghe and see what other people on this bare land are doing in the ice tide.

You can't be like those people in the Antarctic scientific research station, who are bored in the research institute all day long, doing research and writing diaries, right?
-
Hey, don't say it's really feasible.

Not to mention myself, two of the other three players are engaged in research, and the particle reconstruction system does not consume the energy and stamina of the original body, but only gives them an extra ten hours when the original body sleeps.

Isn't this equivalent to their time being 10 hours more than other people in reality?
How good it is for work!
This is the real roll king, right?
Thinking of this, Chen Jiu felt a little funny.

This guy, the player hasn't thought about how to get stuck on the bug, but he got stuck first.

And the card is still a bug in the entire real world.

This kind of thinking is bad, I still have to think about how to introduce some new activities, or how to develop a plan that can go out in extremely cold weather
Just as he was thinking about how to have fun for the players, Shuanghe's life monitoring system suddenly sent an early warning message.

200 meters away, someone is approaching.

Chen Jiu was instantly alert.

At this point in time, even though it was just dark on Chidi, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to go out for activities at this time, especially in the Wanku Forest area.

The reason is simple, it is too dangerous for the aborigines here.

Even if you want to hunt or gather, you should do it during the day.

He immediately stood up and said to the other three players:

"Quick guy, someone is coming!"

Qin Chuan looked at Chen Jiu differently, and while picking up his bow and arrow and javelin not far away, he asked:
"Isn't that right, brother? I didn't see anything. Your perception is a bit outrageous. Could it be that it's turned on?"

However, before his words fell, the moving black spot in Chen Jiu's sight made a sound.

"It's me, your friend!"

He froze for a moment.

It turned out to be that woman named Lin Shuang!
It's so late, what is she doing in Wanku Forest?
The other players were also puzzled, and the wig moved to Chen Jiu's side and asked:
"Hey, Brother Jiu, why is this merchant NPC still here at night? Did it trigger a plot?"

"Well, I feel like it's also a side plot."

Chen Jiu opened his eyes and spoke nonsense.

Things that he can't control like this will be treated as plots in the future, and the explanation can't be explained anyway.

"Oh, oh, come to the door at night, can't it be that there is a relationship?"

"It doesn't look like it. If there is a relationship line, it should be triggered that night."

The insect lady interjected.

That is to say, during the time when several people were discussing, Lin Shuang had already approached them.

Now all the players saw her and noticed the huge package behind her.

"Miss, why are you here now?"

The wig actively greeted him, as if he wanted to be the first to trigger the plot.

But Lin Shuang, who was opposite her, was already shocked by the scene in front of her.

This place is different from what I have seen before.

The ground had obviously been leveled, and a large area of ​​trees had been cut down. Several low walls were built on the open space, and these walls were actually made of ice.

Are they building igloos?
This is a good way to deal with the ice tide, but their progress is a bit too fast, right?
If this kind of work was done by the villagers of Xiahe Village, it would probably take at least several days or even more than ten days.

But they only spent two days.

Where did all the energy and drive come from?
If this is the case, then my plan may be in vain.

But no matter what, it came, and she had to say her request.

She glanced at the four players in front of her, and after a short breath, she said in a sincere tone:
"I think... can you please save us!"
