7. Chapter VI The Food Crisis
A thousand miles of embankment, destroyed in an anthill. Perhaps the slightest negligence can cause a huge crisis.
ββExcerpt from "Essays of Ling Zikai"
Kay delivers the poem downstairs to her house.
The poem whispered to Kai, "I've arrived." β
"Well, look at you up, I'll go again." Kai was a little reluctant to let her go.
"No, you can go back in the car!"
"Hmm." Although he said yes, Kai didn't move at all.
The poem said a little impatiently: "I really can't help you, then I'll go first." Good bye. β
"Well, goodbye."
Shi turned around, opened the door and was about to walk into the corridor, when she suddenly heard Kai calling her behind her, "Poem! β
She stopped, and just as she wanted to turn around, he kissed her on the cheek.
She turned around and saw him smiling and waving at her as he walked backwards, "Good night!" βγ
It wasn't until his figure disappeared into the night that she realized that her heart was beating so fast......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As soon as Kai got home, he lay down on the bed and looked at the empty ceiling, but he still felt happy. From today, he has a girlfriend, maybe from a few days earlier, he already has a girlfriend.
A qiΔ seems to be like a dream. Kai opened his newly bought mobile phone, edited the text message, and thought for a long time only to type "I'm home, don't worry!" βγ
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shi lay on the bed, touching the cheek that had just been kissed by him with his hand, and his heart involuntarily beat faster, he was still so nervous when he confessed, and suddenly she didn't know what to do, thinking that he couldn't help but say "Fool!" βγ
The mobile phone on the table rang suddenly, and she opened it and saw a text message from him, "I'm home, don't worry!" I didn't know what to call for a long time with my phone, so I only replied with a "Well, good night!" β
Kay looked at the phone with "Well, good night!" β
Still in a daze, suddenly the phone rang, and Kai hurriedly answered.
"Hey! Lenzi, where did you go, you didn't play the game, your phone didn't turn on, and there was no one at home! β
"Oh, circle! I'm going to buy a new phone. Hearing a voice that wasn't her, I seemed to feel a little lost.
"There's something big in the game, get on the game! Said in the game. The voice of the circle seemed to be in a hurry, and hung up the phone after speaking.
Entering the game, Lezi is still in the Hidden Dragon Village.
Immediately accepted the pig's chat request, "Lenko, you're finally online." β
"The circle said something big, what's the big thing?" Prism goes straight to the point.
"Everyone just found out that this game actually has a logistics setting, as the battle progresses, the soldiers have to eat food, the satiety has dropped, the morale will be reduced, and the attributes will be reduced, and they can't fight, and even the soldiers will defect. However, the undead don't need food, what they need is death energy, and the spiritualism in the exploration mode will collect death energy, except for Lao Fu, we are now unable to fight because of lack of food. β
"There should be grain to sell in the city!" Lingzi asked without thinking.
"There is food to sell in the NPC store in the city, but with the several major game guilds in North Dragon City, they are hoarding and buying system food, and the food in the NPC store is already sky-high!"
Unbeknownst to them, the same thing is happening on Heroes' regional servers.
Leng Zi was a little surprised: "Then what are you doing now?" β
"The circle is looking for you, except for Lao Fu, they are all staying in the city! The logistics consumption in the city is halved. β
"Lenzi, I'm coming up." really said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and as soon as he talked about the circle, he was online.
"I basically know the situation, you wait for me." After saying that, Leiko ran towards the NPC grain store in Hidden Dragon Village.
I suddenly remembered that the village chief still had a time-limited task, and I don't know if I can use the gold coins given by the task first.
Find the village chief of Hidden Dragon Village and accept the quest "Village Chief's Request".
Task Tips: Bring the 3000 gold coins given by the village chief, buy as many construction materials as possible, at least 3 units of wood and 3 units of ore, the difficulty of the task is C, the reward depends on the purchase of materials, the task is limited to 2 hours, and the countdown to the task begins.
Lingzi calculates that from Hidden Dragon Village to Beilong City, it will take about 30 minutes at his own marching speed, and it will take an hour to go back and forth, and there will only be less than an hour to collect supplies, so let's take a look at the price of food here.
Seeing the price of food in the grain store in Hidden Dragon Village, Lingzi was happy, because Hidden Dragon Village is remote and hidden, at present, only Lingzi may know that the price of grain in the grain store is still the price when the game was first opened, and the price of wild boar, a special product in the store, will be halved when Lingzi buys it. (Anyway, the wild boar meat was accidentally chosen by Lengzi and given to the villagers!) οΌ
Lingzi bought all the 3,500 gold coins on his body to buy wild boar meat and grain, and rushed to Beilong City with the grain.
Lingzi turned on the voice call: "Circle, I'm rushing to you, I have a lot of food here, enough for you, you can help me collect as much wood and ore as possible now." β
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Half an hour later, Lingzi arrived at Beilong City and saw Saber, Angel Love Monk, Tianxingjian, Rebounding Beast, and Very White Teeth standing in a row at the gate of the city waiting for him, as if he wanted to wear it.
Lingzi directly traded a large amount of food to each person, "I can buy this food at most, it is bought with my mission gold coins, within 50 minutes, help me collect as much wood and ore as possible, and the time-limited mission has to be handed in in a hurry." β
As soon as Leoko's words were finished, the five of them traded a total of 6 units of wood and 5 units of ore.
"Lingzi, it's not easy to collect resources now, we don't have many gold coins, before you come, what you collect plus what we hit plus what we gave the task, that's all. While there's still time, we'll get some for you. It seems that there is too little to collect, and the circle is a little reluctant to say.
Seeing that the amount of wood and ore was enough to complete the minimum amount of tasks, Lingzi was not in a hurry: "You wait, now that the price of food is skyrocketing, I guess the game company will intervene soon." The price of food should be adjusted back soon, and I will leave a small amount of food for you that must be used, and the rest will be exchanged for some gold coins, equipment, etc., which will also help your development. And thank you for your help! β
Xiaokang said nonchalantly: "Boss Kai said a word, I am not afraid of swords, mountains and fires." Thanks what! β
"That's right! It's all brothers who say thank you, it's too out-of-the-box. β
"Kai, I still have two units of wood here." The player ghost sends you a trade request, and even the old man who doesn't need food will come to help you.
After 50 minutes, Leiko took the 10 units of wood and 9 units of ore that everyone had worked hard to collect, and set out on the road to Hidden Dragon Village......
