Chapter 1140 Monthly Tasks, New Way to Claim Them!

February 28, Year 2 of the Wasteland Calendar, the last day of February.

In China on Earth, it is now close to March, the season of spring and blooming flowers.

But in the New World of Wasteland, it is the time of midwinter.

From about the second half of the night, the New World began to have the first light snow of the year.

The cold raindrops sometimes change into solidified snowflakes, and the snowflakes inadvertently become falling raindrops. The two interweave and begin to baptize the land of the wasteland.

Here, the snow is loose, pure, and unpolluted.

At dawn, when you open the door, you can see that a thin quilt has been laid on the ground.

The forest is also stained with white, and the trees are like a layer of cotton wool.

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

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

It was really quiet and peaceful.

The smoke from cooking in the village slowly floated up, and a little heat evaporated, forming a misty fog.

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

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

The well-off residents are diligently clearing the snow and pushing it into the alchemy furnace to burn it into energy.

And some young people are even playing and fighting in the snow.

Like a painting by a master, the whole looks like a paradise.

"Awoo"

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

The more elegant hair is matched with the snowflake mark between the eyebrows. In the level that no one can see, a mysterious power echoes with the spectacular architecture and slowly wraps the entire territory.

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

It's really magical!

"Today is a great day for hotpot, preferably an open-air hotpot, where you can enjoy the snow while eating mutton. It's a pity that the farm is still quiet." Su Chan's face was still as bright as spring breeze when she talked about the beginning, but her voice became smaller and smaller at the end, and she stuck out her tongue mischievously.

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

The plant meat synthesized by machines has rich protein, which can supplement the daily needs of the human body, and its appearance is almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

Of course, it will definitely be exposed when you put it in your mouth.

The machine that synthesizes plant meat does not pursue the taste, or the machines in the hands of the people like Hunter Tiger and Aldridge have not reached the stage of pursuing the taste. The plant meat produced is very similar to chicken breast boiled in boiling water, dry and woody.

Even though the chefs in the territory have made three improvements and mixed it with synthetic fat, the taste is still poor, not as good as the machine-synthesized meat sold in supermarkets.

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

However

"Haha, you are right, today is a good day for hot pot." Su Mo smiled and nodded, turned around and gently wiped the road sign at the entrance of the dungeon with his hand.

The system panel slowly unfolded 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 refreshed.

And in the regular task column.

[Recruit troops and horses, and build up strength (completed)]

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

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

[Medium difficulty task]

[Encircle the land to be king, infrastructure construction (unfinished; progress: 56%)]

[Task requirements: expand the territory area by at least 10%, and at least add infrastructure that can accommodate 5,000 people. ]

[Task Reward: Technology Survival Points*2000; Primary Item Upgrade Voucher*1; Version Progress 5%]

[High Difficulty Task]

[Fight to Support War, Train Soldiers and Horses (Completed)]

[Task Requirements: Participate in a war with at least 10,000 people and contribute to the war as the main force of the war. ]

[Task Reward: Item Survival Points*5000; Primary Complete Production Line of Your Choice*1; Version Progress 5%]

Except for the construction task, which is still a little short of progress, the other two tasks have been completed.

Among them, recruiting soldiers and buying horses requires 1,000 players to join the territory.

Su Mo thought that all these people needed to be present, but in fact, when the number of Bao Lei's guards exceeded 1,000, this task was prompted to be completed. It seems that it does not need to be truly all in the territory to count.

And the same rule applies to the task of fighting to support war. After the battle in the giant tree root sea area, it was displayed as completed.

It was really a pleasant surprise.

"Complete the task, receive the reward for the recruitment task!"

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

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

Eh? Wasn't it issued directly?

After completing the basic challenge task for the first time, Su Mo was still a little confused looking at the empty land.

But soon, lines of information floated from the system panel.

[Challenge task completed, to avoid the threat level rising, please choose the way to receive it yourself]

[Method 1: Receive immediately, the reward will appear immediately. (The threat level is expected to increase by 12%)]

[Method 2: Receive through matching, the reward will appear in a more reasonable way and will be distributed to the matching location (The threat level is expected to increase by 0.1%)]

[Method 3: Unlocked (Unlocked after completing ten monthly challenge tasks)]

"It is indeed a new version, this prompt is quite nice!"

Su Mo was surprised and also a little emotional.

No wonder the threat level increased so quickly before, the system did not give such an option at all.

Every time the reward is received, it is the most violent way, directly issuing it, and it would be strange if the game responsible for supervision is not confused.

Although the means are still very violent now, it has finally covered up a fig leaf.

"Choose method 2."

[Detecting matching locations]

[Detection successful! ]

[The reward has been issued, please go to the meat production site-the farm warehouse to receive it! ]

"Really"

Looking at the floating prompt, Su Mo's face suddenly showed a helpless expression.

It seems that this option is not only available because of the system update, but also because of the territory development.

If there is no breeding farm, then this option cannot be triggered.

Just like receiving the production line reward, there must be a factory, otherwise it is no different from direct distribution.

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

"What for?" Su Chan pursed her lips: "You know that I have no output at all."

"That's not necessarily true."

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

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

But there were also brave young men who rushed up with a smile to see if they could get any tasks arranged 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."

Su Mo laughed and scolded, and simply quickened his pace to leave the crowd.

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

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

And the care and concern of the people.

Not only is he responsible for the food, clothing, and daily expenses of the people.

Even their work, marriage, personal development, route selection, etc. must be considered.

This is too tiring!

"Zero, those who came up to talk just now, send a message to Chen Ge Qiaoyuansheng, asking him to be the candidate for the first test."

"Huh, is it so cruel?" The little cube screamed. Since the fusion of the real eye, it has obviously become smarter than before.

"What's cruel? Don't they want to improve? Joining the test plan is the best choice."

After pinching the little guy, Su Mo threw it to Oreo who was following him.

"Woo"

Oreo pushed forward, but Zero cunningly spread his wings and dodged to the side, making a mocking sound.

This immediately aroused Oreo's competitive spirit, and he began to have fun in the snow.

Seeing this, Su Chan also joined the ranks of helping Oreo.

It was a pity that Zero was too fast now. Until the gate of the farm appeared not far away, the man and the dog still couldn't catch the "cunning" Zero.

"Eh? Director? Lord?"

"Why are you here today?"

The three workers who were still playing cards in the ranch raised their heads when they heard the noise of fighting, and they couldn't help but be startled.

The leader, Lao Dai, quickly stood up and winked at the back and whispered.

The other two tried to put away the playing cards in a panic, but were interrupted by Su Chan's wave of her hand.

"Okay, okay, don't worry."

"Although it's working hours now, you are not prohibited from taking a break when the farm is not busy."

"Thank you, Director."

Hearing Su Chan say this, the three of them were slightly relieved.

How could they not hear that the director was protecting them? Otherwise, if the lord had spoken, they would have suffered today.

"How are the lizards doing in the past two days?"

Su Mo looked through the fence and saw several coolie lizards lying under the shack to avoid the snow.

Lizards are typical cold-blooded animals, and their body temperature changes with the temperature of the surrounding environment.

Generally, in winter, they basically enter a hibernation state.

However, these coolie lizards have already left the category of reptiles, and their genes have mutated.

So they are not greatly affected now, and it seems that they just don't want to move.

"Report to the lord, these lizards can eat and drink every day, and there is basically no change in their status."

"But two of them have died in the laboratory of researcher Catalina."

Speaking of the dead lizards, these laborers who escaped from the Great Rift Valley Base were a little timid.

They were afraid that Su Mo would blame them.

But Su Mo just smiled lightly and said indifferently:

"It's okay, let her study it."

If they cared about these things, humans would not be able to study the secrets of the human body and extend surgical operations.

Now that more complex gene mutations are involved, some live research is even more necessary.

Let alone two dead, even if all of them died.

Su Mo was willing to send more people to the dwarfs' territory to find a way to plunder a batch of them.

"Where's the warehouse? Take us to the warehouse of the farm to have a look."

"Okay."

The leader, Lao Dai, didn't understand why, but he still led the way honestly.

Crossing the snowy path on the pasture, we came to the red house of the farm.

The warehouse of the farm was built under the self-service feeding machine that Su Mo had seen before.

Through the conveying device, the feed placed in the warehouse can be automatically transported up.

And by pushing open the door next to it, you can also go down the steps all the way inside.

"Ah? When did this come out?"

At the end of the stairs, Lao Dai pressed the light switch and was stunned.

The warehouse of the farm was originally a morgue for storing corpses in the hospital, and the space was quite large.

But because no patients died later, it was never used from the time it was built to the time it was abandoned.

It is about two meters high and has a total area of ​​200 square meters.

In such a large space, the farm can only pile up one-third of the feed at most.

But now, there are suddenly several large groups of unknown materials tied with waterproof cloth in the corner.

"Open it and take a look."

Su Mo gave a concise order. Old Dai did not dare to neglect it and quickly took the other two people to untie the rope.

As the upper layer of waterproof cloth gradually fell off, the materials below were revealed.

Not only did the three of them widen their eyes and show an unbelievable look.

Even Su Chan, who had been prepared for a long time, opened her mouth slightly, turning it into a big 'O'.

"Our farm is developing very well. This is a reward issued by the game."

Su Mo was not embarrassed and did not feel nervous when he lied skillfully and pushed the system's ability to the game.

"Is it true?"

"Of course it's true, otherwise where can I get these beef, mutton, and fish?" Su Mo replied as a matter of course, and changed the subject: "I thought you knew, so you said you wanted to have hot pot!"

"Great, I know my efforts are not in vain!"

Su Chan couldn't help laughing, and waved her fist in the air fiercely.

No matter whether Su Mo was telling the truth or a lie, the sense of accomplishment was so great to hear someone affirm the results of his efforts.

He quickly directed three workers to transfer five tons of meat to the ground, and notified the canteen in the village.

When they heard that the farm could supply a batch of real meat today, Hope Village was immediately cheered.

"Great, it would be great if every day could be so good."

In the afternoon, as the snow intensified, a hot pot tent was set up in the square at the entrance of the village.

Sitting in the middle, Su Chan put a piece of mutton into her mouth, and her eyes narrowed in happiness.

On the side, Su Mo smiled without saying anything, his eyes fell on the third monthly task reward.

Five thousand item survival points, very strong, at least the purchasing power of 20,000 points before the update.

The 5% version progress is also gratifying, and it can be upgraded to the next version as soon as possible.

But what Su Mo paid the most attention to was the "optional primary complete production line".

Primary

Is the production line of the transport aircraft considered primary?
