February 28th, Year Two of the Wasteland Calendar, the last day of February.

In China on earth, it is now approaching March, the season when spring flowers are blooming.

But in the wasteland new continent, it is the time of winter.

Starting around midnight, the first light snowfall of the year began to fall in the New World.

The cold raindrops sometimes turned into solid snowflakes, and the snowflakes inadvertently turned into falling raindrops. The two combined and began to wash the wasteland.

Here, the snow is loose, pure, and without any pollution.

The genius was bright, and when he opened the door, he saw that the ground had been covered with a thin quilt.

The forest was also tinged with white, and the trees seemed to be sprinkled with a layer of cotton wool.

"Fortunately, the expedition team set off yesterday, otherwise today would definitely be more difficult."

Early in the morning, after taking Su Chan to sweep the snow at the entrance of the underground city, Su Mo squinted his eyes and looked into the distance.

It really is quiet and peaceful.

In the village, the smoke from cooking slowly rises, and some heat evaporates, forming a misty mist.

There are no high-rise buildings and no industrial pollution, and the occasional transport vehicles also use the cleanest energy.

Row houses, courtyards, and small villages are scattered everywhere.

The prosperous residents are diligently clearing the snow and pushing it into the alchemy furnace to burn it to generate energy.

Some young people were even playing and playing in the snow.

Just like a painting by a master, the overall look is as beautiful as a paradise.

"Ouch."

Winter is coming again, and the blood in Oreo's body is also revealed.

The more flowing hair is combined with the snowflake logo in the middle of the eyebrows. At a level that no one can see, a mysterious and mysterious power slowly wraps around the entire territory after echoing the wonders of the building.

Being in it, even if the temperature is as low as minus 15 degrees, everyone can only feel the feeling of close to zero.

It’s truly amazing!

"Today is really a good day to have a hot pot. It's best to have an open-air hot pot. You can cook the mutton while enjoying the snowy scenery. Well, it's a pity that the farm hasn't moved yet." Su Chan's face was still full of spring breeze when she said it, and her voice from the back

But it kept shrinking and stuck out its tongue naughtily.

Thanks to the recent closer trade with allies, there is no shortage of meat in the territory.

The kind of plant meat synthesized by machines is rich in protein, which can supplement the daily needs of the human body, and its appearance can almost look like the real thing.

Of course, once you put it in your mouth, the filling will definitely come out.

The machines that synthesize plant-based meat do not pursue taste. In other words, the machines in the hands of people like Hunting Tiger and Aldrich have not yet reached the stage of pursuing taste. The plant-based meat produced looks like it has been cooked in boiling water.

Chicken breast, dry and woody.

Even though the cooks in the territory have made three improvements and mixed it with synthetic fat, the texture still tastes weird and not as good as the kind of machine-made synthetic meat sold in supermarkets.

If you use this kind of meat to cook hot pot, you will really waste the hot pot base.

but

"Haha, you're right, today is a good day to make hot pot." Sumo nodded with a smile, turned around and gently wiped the street sign at the entrance of the dungeon with his hand.

The system panel slowly expanded and automatically entered the February challenge task panel.

After a month of development, two challenge tasks have been completed, and no new tasks have been released yet.

And in the regular tasks column.

[Recruit troops and recharge your batteries (completed)]

[Task requirements: Recruit at least one thousand humans (Earth) to join the territory, and increase the average health of the territory’s residents to 40+]

[Task reward: five tons of meat (two tons of beef, two tons of mutton, one ton of fish)]

[Medium Difficulty Mission]

[Enclosure is king, infrastructure construction (not completed; progress: 97.56%)]

[Task requirements: Expand the territory area by at least 10%, and add at least new infrastructure that can support 5,000 people. 】

[Task reward: Technology survival points*2000; primary item upgrade coupon*1; version progress 0.5%]

[Highly difficult task]

【Furnish war with war, strengthen troops and horses (completed)】

[Task requirements: Participate in a war involving at least 10,000 people, and contribute military exploits as the main force in the war. 】

[Task reward: item survival points*5000; primary complete production line optional*1; version progress 5%]

Except for the construction task, which is still far behind schedule, the other two tasks have been completed.

Among them, recruiting troops requires one thousand players to join the territory.

Sumo originally thought that all these people needed to be present, but it turned out that when the number of Baolei's escorts exceeded one thousand, the task was prompted to be completed. It seems that it does not require all of them to enter the territory in the true sense.

number.

The same rule applies to fighting to support fighting. After the battle in the giant tree root sea area is completed, it will be completed.

What a surprise.

"Complete the mission and receive the rewards for the recruitment mission!"

A green light flashed, and the first daily task first lit up, and then showed dim gray completion.

However, the reward did not appear as before, as if it was stuck.

Huh? Wasn’t it distributed directly?

It was my first time to complete the basic challenge mission, and I was still a little confused when I looked at the empty Soma Earth.

But immediately, lines of information floated up from the system panel.

[The challenge mission is completed, in order to avoid an increase in the threat level, the host is asked to choose the method of receiving it]

[Method 1: Receive it immediately, and the reward will appear immediately out of thin air. (The threat level is expected to increase by 0.12%)]

[Method 2: Receive by matching, the rewards will appear in a more reasonable way and be distributed to the matching location (the threat level is expected to increase by 0.01%)]

[Method 3: Not unlocked (unlocked after completing ten monthly challenge tasks)]

"Sure enough, it's a new version. This hint is interesting!"

Su Mo was suddenly surprised and a little emotional at the same time.

No wonder the threat level increased so quickly in the past, and the system did not provide this option at all.

Every time you receive a reward, it is the most violent way. It is distributed directly. It would be strange if the game responsible for supervision is not ignorant.

Now, although the methods are still very violent, there is finally a fig leaf on the outside.

"Select method two."

[Detecting matching locations]

【Detection successful!】

[The reward has been distributed, please go to the meat production place - the farm warehouse to claim it! 】

“It’s true”

Seeing the floating reminder, Sumo suddenly showed a dumbfounded expression on his face.

It seems that this method is not only available after the system is updated, but also the territory development is a necessary part.

If there is no breeding farm built, then naturally this option cannot be touched.

Just like receiving production line rewards, you must have a factory, otherwise it will be no different from direct distribution.

"Let's go, let's go to your farm today and let me see the recent progress of you, the factory director."

"What are you doing?" Su Chan pursed her lips: "It's not like you don't know that I have no output at all."

"That's not necessarily the case."

With a pretentious smile, the two of them walked to the breeding farm one after another, joking.

Many villagers passed by along the way and couldn't help but show respect.

But there are also some brave young men who rush forward with a smile to see if they can get any tasks assigned by the lord alone.

"Go away, go away, I'm resting now, don't bother me."

"If you want to find a job, go to the logistics department."

Sumo laughed and cursed, then quickened his pace and left the surrounding crowd.

The longer he sat in the position of lord, the more he felt a responsibility equal to unlimited power, which was also unlimited.

A successful lord, in addition to being able to promote the normal development of large and small development affairs in the territory, must also take into account the direction of war, the harmonious relationship with allies, and the survival choices under the general trend.
