Chapter 3 Drinking Water Crisis! First Upgrade!

"It really works this way"

When he saw the second solution provided by the system, Su Mo was relieved. Google search reading

Ignoring the complaints of the survival system, Su Mo's face was full of excitement.

Wells in cities may be rare, but in rural areas, there are still many places using primitive wells until 2022.

Before selecting a site for an ordinary well, it is necessary to follow the terrain and topography, try to choose a low-lying area, and use modern tools to dig a well where water can gather.

But now that he has a survival system, as long as he can make a model of the item, the survival point can replace the subsequent work.

There is salvation!

Su Mo began to carefully study the upgrade plan for the well. If it is upgraded out of thin air, it will consume 130 survival points. At the current efficiency of 5 survival points per day, it will take at least five days to accumulate enough survival points.

By then, he may have died of thirst.

Waiting for the survival points to reach the standard is definitely a stupid way!

Su Mo smiled and thought of a solution:

"I can provide materials for the upgrade plan..."

Touching the upgrade plan 2 with his mind, Su Mo quickly obtained two of the materials needed for the upgrade that he could currently provide: 10 units of stone and six units of plant fiber.

Picking up the stone axe, Su Mo felt full of energy in his heart. He walked out of the shelter door in two steps and began to collect supplies.

Pulling leaves and picking up stones.

After more than half an hour, after finally gathering enough resources, Su Mo returned to the shelter. This time, the required survival point finally dropped to 75.

Choose plan 2!

The green scanning light emanated from Su Mo's feet and gradually merged with the pit. In the field of vision, the pit became deeper and deeper, and the wooden barrel gradually slid down as the terrain disappeared.

The hemp rope made of several units of plant fiber also began to extend as the wooden barrel fell.

The stones piled on the ground disappeared rapidly.

As all the supplies were consumed, with a snap, the green light suddenly returned to Su Mo's body again.

After looking at the well, a new attribute emerged:

[Micro Well Water Extractor (Ordinary)]

Current efficiency: 2000ml/day

Upgrade direction 1: Upgrade the well material, add sealing function and water purification function to improve the water quality, upgrade consumes survival points (200).

Upgrade direction 2: Deepen the well pit, enhance water extraction efficiency, upgrade consumes survival points (300).

Evaluation: Essential for wilderness survival!

Looking at the output of two liters of water per day on the well panel, Su Mo looked happy and began to calculate in his heart.

If you don't exercise, you only need to maintain about 300ml of water per day to maintain your life. Even if you have to work outside, a maximum of one liter of water is enough.

As for the scientific theory of at least 2L of water per person per day, it is too luxurious in the end times.

In the civilized era, there are many people who can't drink 2L a day. Can they still maintain health in the end times?

The drinking water crisis is resolved!

Next, the food problem needs to be solved.

After thinking for a while, Su Mo opened the trading panel. As expected, many things appeared on the previously empty panel.

[Seller: Luo Feng]

[Trading Item: 1 Iron Block]

[Required Item: 100ml Pure Water]

[Notes: Don’t PM me and tell me I’m greedy. I dug this thing out in the hot sun for more than an hour]

[Seller: Su Yu]

[Trading Item: 200g Bread]

[Required Item: 1 Copper Block]

[Notes: If you don’t want to starve to death, take out the copper block quickly. If you don’t want to starve to death, you won’t be able to get it after the deadline]

[Seller: Han Li]

[Trading Item: 500g Mutated Desert Coyote Meat]

[Required Item: 300ml Pure Water]

[Notes: Exchange it with pure water. Fresh wolf meat is just out of the oven. If you need it, hurry up]

[Seller: Wang Fugui]

[Trading Item: 100ml Thirst Quenching Liquid]

[Required Item: PM me any item]

[Comment: Damn it. It’s said to be liquid, but it’s urine. Why don’t you drink this thing to quench your thirst? 】

【Comment: You cheated me out of 10 woods, if you have the ability, don't let me catch you】

Urine?

Looking at the thirst-quenching liquid above, Su Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It turns out that there is such a loophole in the trading system. No wonder this person didn't clearly mark what the liquid is.

Just after crossing here, no one wants to drink urine even if they are thirsty to death!

After a few minutes, after a general observation.

Su Mo has a general understanding of the situation in the market.

There is no shortage of fierce people among the people who come here at this stage, and some people have even killed a lot of mutant creatures with the tools in their hands.

There are also some people who rely on the treasure chests found in the desert to open food and tools.

However, water is still the most scarce thing now.

Basically, there are few people hanging on it, and even if there is a little occasionally, it will be bought by someone within a few seconds.

After exiting the trading panel, Su Mo returned to the regional chat. This time, there were a lot of useful information:

"As long as you kill a mutant beast, a treasure chest will be dropped. There are all kinds of things in it. I just killed a mutant rabbit and got a treasure chest. I opened a bottle of Wahaha and a wrench in it."

"You can also find treasure chests in the wilderness. Be careful not to miss them as garbage."

"Can any kind-hearted person give me some food? I haven't eaten for a day. I'm almost starving and thirsty."

Except for those who were lying there and didn't want to move, most people in the group were discussing finding supplies.

At this stage, few people would focus on the development of the shelter. Most of them were basically storing enough supplies before the next disaster.

Su Mo watched for a while and gained a little intelligence.

Just as introduced before, the wild is full of dangers and opportunities.

Every time you kill a mutant beast, you can get a treasure chest reward. What you can get depends on luck and the strength of the mutant beast.

There are also many wild treasure chests scattered in the wilderness, which can be opened when you find them.

In short, as long as you are willing to go out and explore in the novice stage, at least you will not starve to death or die of thirst immediately, and there is a chance of survival.

As for those who are pampered, those who only know how to give orders, and those who have lost their survival instincts, they should be the first to be eliminated in this global survival competition involving billions of humans.

Sitting on the steps of the shelter until the sun hanging in the middle falls on the horizon, Su Mo pulled up the bucket in the last ray of light.

After five hours, 400ml of water had accumulated in the bucket.

He spent another 4 pieces of wood to build a bucket, poured the water from the well bucket into it to settle the impurities, and then put the well bucket in to continue collecting.

Enduring the thirst in his mouth, Su Mo opened the trading panel, put 200ml of water on it, and started an auction.

[Seller: Su Mo]

[Trading item: 200ml underground mineral water]

[Required item: any food]

[Note: Freshly-made underground water, I dug for half a day to dig out this little bit, as long as it's food, the highest bidder wins]

As soon as Su Mo put the water on it, the chat channel exploded instantly.

"Fuck, someone is trading water, and it's water dug out"

"There is water underground, don't say anything, I'll dig it out and go dig water right away"

"This is the first time I see someone dig out water. Most of the water traded today is from treasure chests. This person is willing to trade"

"Just food, I have 300g of bread here, can I exchange this water?"

The world channel was chatting hotly.

On the other side, a bunch of people chatted privately with Su Mo through the trading channel.

"Brother Su, can 20 units of wood be exchanged for your water? Please, I'm dying of thirst."

"I have hundreds of billions of assets. If you give me this water, I'll go out and give you 1 billion, and guarantee your wealth and prosperity in this life."

"Brother Su Mo, I'm so thirsty, can you give me some water? If I meet you, I can agree to any request you make~"

"Brother, 300g wolf meat + 200g bread, will you exchange? I want water."

""

Among the thousands of private messages that came in at once, there were also some foreigners' avatars, but the messages sent were translated into Chinese by the trading system.

Among these people, there are many small stars who were familiar to them in their previous lives, and even rich people and officials.

Some promised a lot of money, some threatened, and even many people sent private messages directly to tempt with beauty.

Su Mo ignored them all.

The first round of disasters will come in five days. In this precarious life, everyone is equal.

God knows how many of these people can survive after the disaster.

After screening for more than ten minutes, Su Mo finally chose the one that seemed to have the highest offer and completed the transaction.

[Record]: You lost 200ml of water

[Record]: You gained 350g of bread, 200g of beef jerky, 1 iron, 1 lighter

As the transaction was completed, half of the water in the barrel disappeared, and several more items appeared in the inventory.

At this time, including the previous expenses, there were only four units of wood left in the inventory.

Su Mo calculated and spent 4 wood to build a wooden box, and put all the items he had just traded into it.

After carefully drinking the remaining half of the water in the bucket, Su Mo went out again while it was not completely dark.
