Chapter 17 Survival Artifact
Qin Chuan said he wanted to demolish his home, but as expected, his men showed no mercy at all.
The first thing he took out were various portable appliances, such as microwave ovens, refrigerators, freezers, TVs, washing machines, etc., and moved them all to the hall of the institute.
Everyone was hired to help him for 2 points.
——
In fact, with only four closed beta players now, no one would complain too much whether the points were divided or not, but for the sake of fairness, he still insisted on settling the points.
Looking at the electrical appliances placed on the floor, Qin Chuan explained one by one:
"The motor in the washing machine is the most useful. As long as there is electricity, it can be used to make various devices, such as a blower."
"In the future, if we want to make iron, we will need to build a reverberatory furnace. When there is a shortage of manpower, the electric blower will be very useful."
"The magnetrons, waveguides and light-wave tubes in microwave ovens are all very useful things - didn't Wig say that we need to build a greenhouse? If there is enough electricity, we can use light-wave tubes to provide heat."
"As for this TV - it's not very useful, but let's dismantle it into components first. These capacitors are quite rare. Unfortunately, I don't know what technology this TV is made of. It doesn't have diodes. Otherwise, you can make it yourself.
A pen..."
"If you need an electric pen, you can get it from the tool room in the living area."
Shuanghe on the side interjected.
"If you didn't tell me earlier, this would have caused trouble..."
Qin Chuan's tone was a bit complaining, but at least, after two days of playing the game, he had begun to regard NPCs as real objects that could be interacted with, rather than mere tools.
This is a good start.
Chen Jiu has always been worried that if he really regarded himself as a bug tester, he might never be able to integrate into the game, and then it would be a luxury for him to want him to work part-time.
AFK is also an instant thing.
But now it seems that this trend is weakening - he is becoming more and more like a real player.
Although I still like stuck bugs, I never want to ruin other people's gaming experience.
Qin Chuan introduced the uses of various electrical appliances one by one. In his vision, the player's outpost must have a complete lighting system, solid defense and early warning measures, reliable heating and drainage systems, plus a certain degree of
production tools.
Chong Niang worked in civil engineering. One of him and Qin Chuan were responsible for planning, and the other was responsible for providing technical solutions. The two discussed it for a full twenty minutes, and Chen Jiu and Wig finally stopped after listening to it.
Although it was already dark in Chidi by this time, it was not too late, and it was far from the time to go offline for a rest, so Qin Chuan stayed in the research institute to dismantle the electrical appliances, while the other three were preparing to go out to cut wood.
.
"I never expected that after going around and around, I finally came back to chopping down trees!"
The insect lady wailed.
Although cutting down trees in a completely realistic game is a novel experience, it is still too boring after all and is far less interesting than hunting.
"Hey, isn't this a point reward? One cubic meter of wood can be exchanged for 1 point, which is equivalent to cutting down a tree, right? This makes money faster than hunting!"
Chen Jiu spoke to comfort him.
The three tasks of logging, gathering and hunting have been included in the daily tasks and can be performed repeatedly. In order to ensure the balance of the three resources, he has made adjustments to the profit curve.
The relatively boring logging and gathering benefits are slightly higher, while the hunting benefits are slightly lower - the fun players gain in the process will make up for this gap.
"That's what I say, but no one wants to be the Liver Emperor... Hey, if I light this tree on fire with a lighter, will it fall down with an axe?"
"...You should pull me down quickly, are you really trying to play famine?"
Chen Jiu said helplessly.
At this time, they had walked into the woods outside the cave entrance. The tree species here were very complex, including extremely cold-resistant coniferous forests, as well as temperate tree species such as oaks and maples, and even a few half-dead poplars could be seen vaguely.
Tree.
It is estimated that plants have evolved new ways to survive in extreme environments.
The three of them put down their emergency lights and turned on the scattering mode. The light instantly illuminated a large area around them.
Chen Jiu and Chong Niang got on with the axes on Shuanghe's hair. They tried chopping the wig a few times and found that it really couldn't be chopped, so they started wandering around with the help of light.
——
It's not just wandering around, she's just looking for different types of plants, which is one of the fun things for her in this game.
Chen Jiu ignored her. She had peeled acorns for a long time today and roasted a lot of dried meat. It was time to rest and relax.
The process of cutting down trees is not complicated. Chen Jiu mastered the trick with just a few swings of the axe. Not to mention Chong Niang, when Chen Jiu had just knocked down one tree, he had already started to chop down the third one.
Let’s see, what does it mean to be upright in speech?
He says he doesn’t want to be the Liver Emperor, but when it comes to cutting him off, he’s still not that high-minded?
This is an excellent wage earner—no, an excellent player.
"Damn it, my attributes have gone up!"
Just when Chen Jiu was about to encourage Chong Niang a few words, Chong Niang's exclamation suddenly came to his ears.
"How much has it increased?"
"The strength has gone up by 0.4, a whole 0.4! Damn it, the level has also gone up, I'm level 2!"
"Awesome...how powerful are you now?"
Chen Jiu quickly followed his words and asked.
At times like this, you have to support him. Otherwise, if no one appreciates the sense of accomplishment, what's the point of you?
"I'm at 6.9 and I'm going to break 7 soon. Stop talking and chop down trees. This thing can increase attributes much faster than hunting!"
"Understand it, let's do it!"
Chen Jiu smiled, turned around and continued to chop down the tree.
In fact, the player's attributes are not brought about by upgrading at all, but after continuous exercise, their own attributes will be improved to a certain extent. He just asked Shuanghe to release attribute updates every once in a while, so that this "
"Progress" seems more like the logic of upgrading.
It's obviously a trick, but the players just fall for it. Do you think it's strange or not...
Sawdust flew and another big tree fell down. Chen Jiu's own attributes also increased slightly. Don't tell me, this feeling of adding points is really refreshing...
"Hey, do you want sausage?"
Wig, who didn't know where to go, suddenly jumped in front of Chen Jiu and asked.
"What the hell? Where did the sausage come from?"
Chen Jiu looked at the stick-shaped object handed to him and asked inexplicably.
This thing really looks like grilled sausage... But the question is, where did it come from?
On the other side, Chong Niang heard their voices and came over. She smiled proudly and was about to reveal the answer when Chen Jiu suddenly realized:
"Damn it, is this cattail grass? Why does it grow here?"
"Yes, yes, yes! It's just cattails, but it's not the same as in reality!"
Wig nodded excitedly and continued:
"This is a treasure for survival! With this thing, my greenhouse will have a chance!"
Chapter completed!
