Chapter 1572 The Cold Wave Has Passed
But even so, the harvest this time also made them extremely surprised.
In fact, they lived in fear for the past three months, because the food they prepared was only enough for the two of them to live for about three months. If the time was extended for another half a month or a month, they would most likely be short of food and use survival coins to buy food.
Another important reason is that the food they planted in the underground shelter did not grow very well. Except for some potatoes, cassava and root plants all died.
The only potato that grew was of very average quality. Not only was the size very small, but the quantity was only a few kilograms, which could not meet their food supplement at all.
This also made the two understand that it was still too difficult to grow crops in the underground shelter, and the planting industry still had to be under the sun.
So, after the cold wave ended, they cleaned up all the crops in the underground shelter and planned to move the planting industry to the ground.
Now the sky is gradually clearing up, and the two are in a very good mood. Anyone who lives in a cave for three months will be driven crazy.
Now they can come out and start to survive again, which makes them feel very good.
And because they had a large amount of survival coins, the two were full of confidence in the future development.
Although the weather was still cold, the two started working early, cleared the snow in the camp, loosened the surrounding soil, and returned to the shelter to take care of it.
As the weather gradually recovered, they no longer had to live in the cave, and the shelter was completely livable.
A new survival life is about to begin, which also means that a new round of elimination will also begin. Different challenges will be faced at different times. It does not mean that the cold wave is over and the disaster is over.
As the winter snow melts and the beasts leave their nests, they will face more challenges, and in life and development, they will also face more and more difficulties.
Because the purpose of this game has never been just to survive, but more for the development of civilization.
How they can go through the initial survival, develop farming and breeding, and survive in this primitive land for a long time will be a very severe test.
Moreover, on the second day after the cold wave ended, the second update of the game came as scheduled.
This time, the update will be relatively more.
The first point is about the survival store. In the regular goods, some goods have been added.
Various tools, food, books, materials, clothes, daily necessities... Although the prices are still very expensive, there are indeed many items that can be purchased.
Bai Hao and the others took a look and were still very jealous of some of the regular items.
Especially some things that they cannot make but are necessary for life, such as toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, shoes, socks, clothes, shorts, sugar, salt, MSG, soy sauce...
With the technology and materials they have now, it is impossible to make these things, but they are indispensable in life.
After this round of updates, the prices are relatively cheaper and within their acceptable range, so they should also buy some.
In addition, many new items have been added to the random goods, and some more precious and practical items should appear in the future.
In addition to the survival store, Qi Yuan also launched the "radio system".
Every existing survivor will get a worn-out radio, but the radio can only be used once a day and can receive information within a 50km range.
The role of the radio is to facilitate communication and cooperation between survivors.
The survivors who survived now all have their own skills, more or less. For example, Bai Hao and his partner have bamboo backpacks, which are exactly what others need.
However, they cannot meet other survivors in a short time and cannot trade.
Therefore, the radio plays a role at this time, which can contact other survivors and connect the isolated survivors to each other.
The two also used the radio at the first time to try to search for information around them.
However, if you want to communicate directly, both parties need to turn on the radio at the same time to release the signal, and the two can successfully connect.
And each time the signal is released, it is only 1 minute!
This means that if the two do not have an agreement, it is almost impossible to turn on the radio at the same time to contact each other, and it is difficult to really contact each other.
However, the radio has another function, which is information retention.
One message can be released every day. If other people receive this message, they can also know what is said, which can also allow each other to communicate in another way.
Bai Hao first received the message, and there was no response after 1 minute.
Then, another message was left directly: "Are there other survivors around? Can we have friendly exchanges?"
After saying this, the functions of the radio are all used up. At least the radio cannot be used again within today, and it must be updated again tomorrow.
Speaking of which, the function of the radio is actually very useless. Its role is limited to allowing the survivors to have the first contact.
After experiencing the first contact, it is highly likely that the radio will not be used for contact again in the future, after all, this thing has too many limitations.
Bai Hao and Huang Hai gathered together, and another benefit emerged, that is, they both had two radios, and they had two opportunities to receive and send information every day.
It also meant that they were more likely to find other survivors around.
Anyway, they had already made plans. When they got up every morning, they would use Bai Hao's radio first.
Before going to bed every day, they would use Huang Hai's radio again, and try to use up all the opportunities as much as possible, trying to find survivors around who could cooperate.
However, although Bai Hao had sent out messages seeking survival, even if someone responded, he would probably not contact directly.
Because living in the wild, the most important thing is safety. If you can't guarantee your own safety, it is very dangerous to contact other survivors.
So, the first thing they have to do is to arm themselves first.
According to their original plan, they will spend more time accumulating food and developing civilization.
But after this update, the radio system appeared, which means that the survivors will contact each other, which is another thing that needs to be put on the agenda in advance.
That is making weapons!
And the most important thing is the bow and arrow weapons. Long-range weapons are of great significance in primitive society, which means the ability to take the initiative to attack.
