Chapter 289: Oxygen Supply and Heart

Gravity Control on the skill bar has directly changed to Earth Movement Control, and the range seems to be larger.

Chen Chen suppressed the excitement in his heart, continued to knock on the steel, and quickly completed the remaining orders. Then he came to the underground hall and began to test the effect of the third-order earth power.

He pressed his palm against the wall, and the power of the earth poured into it crazily. The originally strengthened stone wall became stronger and denser, and the color gradually changed, from the previous pure color to a little bit transparent, like jade. .

Of course, the light transmittance of the wall is still very poor, and a strong flashlight can illuminate the thickness of the two millimeters, and the wall is still very thick.

"Good guy!"

Chen Chen was also shocked, looking at the whole translucent wall in front of him, his heart was full of admiration.

He took out Hanyue with his hands, summoned his strength and slashed at the stone face with a knife, sparks shot out immediately, and the sound of metal rubbing against the stone face was extremely ear-piercing.

When I took a closer look, I found that the scratches were deep and shallow, from the initial thickness of one centimeter to three millimeters.

Chen Chen's face beamed with joy. This kind of strength has far surpassed that of steel, and some alloys with extremely high hardness are no more than this.

The key is that the consumption of strengthening has not changed. Strengthening a cubic meter of stone wall consumes the power of one side of earth.

"The outer wall of the shelter will be strengthened later, and it will be difficult for the aberrant beast to dismantle the shelter with pure body, unless it is a fifth-level aberrant elephant..."

After testing the enhancement effect, Chen Chen took out his bow and arrow and began to concentrate the power of the earth on the tip of the arrow, aiming at the big pillar in front of him.

After Chen Chen strengthened the entire hall, these pillars were useless, but because it would take a lot of effort to dismantle them, he just left them alone. On the contrary, some of these pillars also had targets when he was training. stayed.

The bright yellow light at the tip of the arrow became more and more powerful, and when Chen Chen let go of his hand when it accumulated to the limit, there was a sound of empty explosion, and then the arrow rushed forward with great pressure.

This feeling of oppression is real. He added the power of wind when launching, but he didn't expect that the power of earth was too strong and abruptly blasted the power of wind, as if the impact of a thousand tons of weight directly squeezed the air Chen Chen, who was standing behind, could really feel the slight pressure of the air.

boom!

The pillar with a diameter of more than one meter exploded directly, and countless fine stones splashed. The stone pillar did not seem to be hit by a heavy object, but rather exploded directly inside, turning it into thousands of powders in an instant.

This Fifteen Ton Arrow is obviously different from the previous ones, and the threshold for releasing power seems to be a little lower.

Before, the power of the Qianjun Arrow was condensed but not released. Although it would break through the stone pillar, it would continue to move backwards, but this time it released all its power at once.

Chen Chen felt and thought for a while, then drew his bow again and shot towards the next stone pillar.

boom! boom! boom! boom!

This time the arrow broke through three stone pillars in a row, and finally hit the stone wall hard before exhausting its strength.

Obviously he could still control the power of the arrow, but he didn't pay attention to it for the first time, and the power of the earth was presented in a more primitive way.

After a little sigh of relief, Chen Chen also became excited inside.

Previously, the energy of the arrow could not be controlled so finely. In the past, the control of power was just to determine the amount of attribute power injected. As for the expression of the attribute power, there was no way to decide.

But this is not the case for the power of the earth element that has broken through the third level at this moment, and it can finely control its subtle presentation.

"Since this is the case, can other attributes be like this? Even if it is not possible, this kind of thinking has begun to be applied to the breakthrough of attributes. Trying to practice other attributes in this way will make the breakthrough somewhat easier..."

Chen Chen started to practice immediately. He first fully adapted to the power of the earth element he had just mastered, and finally spent an hour trying to use other attributes in this area.

It was seven o'clock in the afternoon after finishing all these times. At this moment, the concentration of abnormal radiation in the outside world had doubled that of daytime. However, Chen Chen hadn't gone out for several days. Even if it was doubled, he could still stay in this environment for a long time.

After a brief change of clothes, he went outdoors to strengthen the stone body of the outer wall for the third time.

After finishing, go back to the shelter, come to the hive, and start to catalyze the high-energy bee queen to come out. After breeding and storing enough gametes, they will be traded to other players.

To be honest, it was a loss for him to catalyze so many bees to sell for 20 points. The conversion of time alone is not enough to offset his cost.

But in order to expand the bee colony as much as possible, he still did this. For him, the queen bee he sent out was not exchanged for points, but the growth potential of his own career!

As long as it is profitable, the majority of players will help him deal with all this, and he only needs to enjoy the speed of accumulation of small balls brought by honey.

After selling a full hundred queen bees, Chen Chen announced that the sale would be suspended, and he would have to wait in line tomorrow if he wanted to buy one.

Many players couldn't help but sigh with regret, but soon, Chen Chen issued another announcement: Attribute equipment forging is accepting orders again, players are welcome to request!

Seeing this group of high-end players excited immediately, many of them were a little hesitant before, but after seeing the transactions shared by several buyers, everyone immediately lost their composure.

People with weak physical strength can immediately increase their combat power by three or four times when wearing a set of equipment, and people with strong strength can also increase their strength by at least 50%!

Not to mention them, after wearing a complete set of equipment, Chen Chen's own strength can also be increased by 30%.

How can this prevent everyone from going crazy? This effect is almost the same as the armor of medieval Europe. After wearing it, it will not be a problem to fight one against ten on the battlefield.

And with the improvement of everyone's attributes, the only defect of the heavy armor has been made up for. Players wearing armors weighing hundreds of catties will basically not be affected. All these add up, and the attribute equipment forged by Chen Chen is simply perfect. .

This is probably the fastest and most effective way to improve strength, as long as there are points, everything is not a problem.

Soon a large number of order requests were delivered, and Chen Chen personally checked them one by one, selected the suitable ones to keep, and traded with the other party.

The reason why he wanted to forge attribute equipment was not that he was in a hurry, but that he saw a possible smoother path to attribute promotion from the soil attribute breakthrough.

That is to forge a large number of attribute equipment, to control the use of attribute power more finely, to deepen the understanding and to increase the probability of breakthrough.

So for this order, he did not choose the ones with high value, but the innovative ones with high attribute forging difficulty. Only by practicing with these orders can he obtain the fastest progress.

After negotiating two things, he immediately started to work, carefully forging the equipment with a hammer in his hand, and comprehending the power of attributes.

In this way, he was busy until twelve o'clock in the morning, when the system notified him that the eighth radiation day had arrived.

【Ding! On the fifty-sixth day, Radiation Day is coming, and the abnormal world system is upgraded...]

【Ding! The upgrade is complete. 】

【Ding! The system prompts that the temperature of the abnormal world will continue to drop in the coming time, players should be prepared. 】

"This is useful, thanks to Brother Chen for the bees, and Brother Dan for the solution."

"It's difficult! But fortunately, I remodeled the channel today. Tonight, while the temperature is not too low, I may not have many opportunities later."

After browsing the player's dialogue for a while, Xiao Luo's voice soon rang out.

"Master, the temperature in the field is dropping rapidly. It has dropped by five degrees so far, and it is currently minus one hundred and five degrees."

Hearing this news, Chen Chen frowned. There were two reminders, which meant that the drop in temperature this time was not a normal temperature fluctuation, but that the degree of the snowstorm disaster had deepened, and it was likely that the absorption rules of the abnormal world had improved a lot.

This kind of thing happened just after the fall of Radiation Day, and many players' hearts sank, and they felt great pressure.

After the low temperature started, everyone began to open up shelters deep underground, but if the temperature really dropped too low, the severe cold would still engulf them.

At this time, Xiao Luo reminded again: "Master, as the temperature drops significantly, the air becomes thinner. It's time for you to consider building a shelter to support facilities. Xiao Luo recommends the master to use green algae plants for oxygen supply."

"Oh, why green algae? Can't other plants work? They still produce." Chen Chen asked.

Xiao Luo replied, "The cost of producing oxygen from green algae is relatively low. In the case of white mist water, the owner only needs to build multi-layered lighting facilities. In a small pool, many different types of algae can be cultured in layers to produce The oxygen efficiency density is the highest."

"In addition, many players' shelters do not have such a powerful ventilation system as your master, so it is very difficult to get oxygen. In order to help members, the alliance has long ago organized research on the evolution of algae oxygen production, and it is now very mature. In terms of energy consumption, it is also very good.”

"Oh," Chen Chen nodded and said, "That's all right, you give me a list of the algae you want to buy, and then plan a place to grow algae. Now there are no aberration beasts coming, so I'll do this first."

"Good master." Xiao Luo quickly pushed the information to the tablet. After Chen Chen got the confirmation, he took the shelter expansion module and other items to the room where the swimming pool was built before.

He first enlarged the room to four times its original size, and created four pools, each five meters deep.

The walls between the four pools are 1.5 meters thick, and the inside is partially hollowed out to install circuit water injection ports and other things.

Then he directly adjusted a channel to draw the high-carbon dioxide air in the shelter, press it to the bottom of the pool, and provide gas upwards slowly and evenly.

There were five abnormal monsters from outside the shelter, and Chen Chen easily killed them in the past, and then returned to continue the construction.

At this time, Universal Robots also sent over the first batch of light strip nets, and Chen Chen took over and began to install them layer by layer.

These light belt nets are produced by the shelter production line. They are waterproof and can regulate and fix algae. After being installed in layers, they can provide energy for the linear algae below.

After that, he sprinkled the purchased algae into the pool, and Xiao Luo also transported the stored white mist water through the catheter.

Xiao Luo reminded: "Master, there are only 220 tons of white mist water left in the shelter, and the owner also needs to properly raise some white mist water. The shelter greenhouse, planting room and the green algae oxygen pool that will be built It consumes a lot of white mist water."

"Okay, got it."

For things like Baiwushui, Chen Chen has been buying them openly for a long time, so the amount of hoarding is astonishing.

Now there is almost no white mist in the air in the wild, but there is a lot in the snow, but the concentration is much lower than the white mist collected directly before, and it is more troublesome to use later.

There are advantages and disadvantages. Relatively, the storage of snow is much more convenient. Just move it to a colder place in the shelter. Such a low temperature will naturally not breed green algae and can be stored for a long time.

It wasn't until three o'clock in the morning that Chen Chen finished installing the second pool and began to fill it with water, and then asked Xiao Luo to control the pumping to fill the second pool with water.

Afterwards he went to bed, and Xiao Luo would help him with the chores of turning on and off the water.

...

At seven o'clock in the morning, Chen Chen woke up on time, feeling a little dull in his heart for some reason.

"Today is the time for liquidation," he murmured, "Shangguan Zhao...how should we deal with it?"

It was only at this moment that he realized that he was still an ordinary person. When his life was threatened, he could become fierce and reckless, and eradicate anything that threatened him.

But once the pressure of survival is gone, and a person like Shangguan Zhao hasn't done anything out of the ordinary for a week, he will be a little bit hesitant to do it.

"Either it depends on the destiny. If the power of the earth breaks through to the third stage, the possibility of killing the opponent is about 60%. If you can survive, follow the previous agreement. It is also a good profit. After killing, everything will be natural. Nothing to say." Soon he made a decision.

In fact, in his subconscious mind, he had already made a decision. Since he wanted to go all out, he would naturally not give the other party a chance to survive.

In the depths of his heart, he was still very scrupulous about keeping such an unstable factor. After getting rid of the other party, the forces under his command would also be uprooted. Doing so would not only provide peace of mind but also maximize benefits.

It's just that the past moral values ​​in his heart are constrained, and when he can't see the threat that is close at hand, the past values ​​are easy to contend with the instinct of survival. Maybe...he himself doesn't want to admit that his morality has failed so quickly, so he pretended to struggle Just a moment.

It is difficult to measure the human heart, and it is difficult for even a clear-minded person to understand his own heart.

Shaking his head, Chen Chen stopped thinking about these things.

After eating, Chen Chen asked, "How much is it in the wild now?"

Xiao Luo immediately replied: "Master, the temperature dropped sharply to minus 130 degrees last night, and then it became relatively stable. This morning, the temperature dropped another ten degrees, reaching minus 140 degrees."

Then Xiao Luo reminded: "Master, the air outside is getting thinner. Xiao Luo suggested to stop supplying oxygen to the shelter's non-activity areas, otherwise the remaining oxygen is really not enough."

"OK."

Chen Chen agreed, and then went to the bee hive to continue to ripen the high-energy queen bee, and sell it to players, so that the bee population could expand rapidly.

In the oath agreement he signed with Shangguan Zhao, it is stipulated that he can only shoot two arrows, so it is not a big problem to use some wooden power in advance, and it will not affect his performance in battle, not to mention that now his wooden power has broken through If you pass the 30,000 mark, it won't affect you if you spend 10,000 square meters.

After that, he plunged into the Super Power Studio and continued to debug the best ghost formation.

Unexpectedly, this time came directly to one o'clock in the afternoon, which exceeded his original plan.

But the good news is that he has finally finalized the layout plan of the ghost formation, and he can build a new and more powerful formation today!
