Apocalypse Lord

field.

Lu Chuan found fifteen or six water elements walking back and forth in the valley.

After calculating the distance, he quietly approached, and then stood still.

Take out the bursting arrow from the quiver, aim and shoot.

"boom--"

The arrow hit the target and exploded.

The element of water was alarmed and strode towards Lu Chuan.

The few that were close to each other opened their mouths directly. In the next second, several water arrows were shot.

Lu Chuan continued to shoot without avoiding it.

Another bursting arrow was shot, blasting a large area of ​​water element, and Lu Chuan's blood volume obviously rebounded.

The Frozen Arrow was shot, and a water element was frozen in place, unable to move forward temporarily.

A penetrating arrow was shot, a water element was killed, and then fell to the ground.

What's even more amazing is that for every special effect arrow shot, there will be two small rain of arrows attacking nearby enemy units.

Arrows are like rain.

The water element fell one after another, without any strength to fight back.

After a while, the water element disappeared, and many dropped items floated in the air. But Lu Chuan hit and beat, his blood volume returned to full value.

Looking around, Lu Chuan quickly found the item he wanted.

"One, two, three, four... fifteen water elements drop four clean water resources in total?"

Lu Chuan packed a portion of water resources into the bamboo tube, just filling the palm-sized bamboo tube.

He took a sip of water and sighed in a low voice, "The last year was really difficult."

**

In fact, the dissemination of scientific and cultural knowledge must also pay attention to timing. In the first few days of summer, the heat is a bit hotter, and most residents are not aware that drought may occur in the game.

A very small number of people secretly bought wooden barrels, filled the barrels with water from streams and wells, and anxiously awaited the follow-up development.

Days passed day by day.

Players with low levels and poor physical attributes panic and discover that there are no edible plants around the territory. The vicinity of Lingyun City is clean and empty, making people desperate.

"From tomorrow on, let's walk far away." In the territory, one person said calmly and slowly.

"Are you crazy?" his companion yelled anxiously, "what if you faint outside in case of heat stroke!"

"Starving to death is death, and being hunted by BOSS is also to death. I would rather go out and have a fight." The man was expressionless, "You can stay in the territory if you are afraid, don't go out."

The companion seemed to be pinched around his neck, speechless for a long while. Finally, he let out a long sigh, "Let's go out together, somehow there will be a caregiver."

The archer next to him was remorseful, "After all, I blame the first and second years for too much. Easy! If you fight more monsters and upgrade, now you have good attributes, first-class equipment, and you have to worry about the hot weather? Directly at the restaurant. Buy ice drinks and take drugs to fight monsters!"

The companion was helpless, "What's the point of saying this now?"

Another complained, "I knew this before, so I should be cruel and pay to open up farmland in the territory! One or two are too expensive, saying that if you sow the seeds in the wild, the crops will grow. , All were cut away by others."

"It costs 300 copper coins to reclaim a piece of farmland in the territory. Who is willing to spend the wrong money?" The companion sighed again and again, "Besides, who weeds and who waters the seeds after they are planted? Isn't it allowed to grow at will?"

"The most important thing is that the area of ​​a piece of land is not big. We are not rich people, so there is no way to buy ten or twenty yuan in a row."

"Speaking of it, it means poverty, hunger, and heat. You can only sit and wait to die." A member of the gods concluded, "Go ahead, go back one day counts as one day."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

**

Recently, You Qingwen ran around, busy spending money.

Linen, cotton, bandages... a large stock of goods.

Rice, flour, potatoes...a large stock of stocks.

Multigrain steamed buns, rice cakes, tortillas, sweet potato cakes...a large number of stocks.

Wood, straw, coal, branches, and straw are piled into several hills.

Buy fifty wooden barrels in one go and fill them with stream water.

Fish and meat are smeared with salt and made into preserved products.

...

In order to prevent the lack of storage space, the team members even had a stone house in hand, and all the corners and corners were used.

You Qingwen thought fiercely, but she didn't believe it and wouldn't survive the game!

**

at the same time.

Zheng Mingyue led the team members to sweat in a corner of the territory.

[You are trying to reclaim farmland in Lingyun City xxx, **** coordinates. 】

[Whether to pay 300 copper coins to purchase land ownership? 】

[Note: After the farmland is reclaimed, players can cultivate without paying taxes. 】

Zheng Mingyue clicked "Yes" without hesitation.

This is not the first piece of farmland he cultivated, but the seventieth piece. The farmland is neatly arranged together and looks magnificent.

Zheng Mingyue greeted the team members, "Take a rest and continue later."

Hearing that, someone sat down and poured a big mouthful of cold water into his mouth. Some people took out ice drinks from their backpacks and ate them happily.

Others were depressed and said, "Others say that they don't have that much money, so they can't cultivate farmland. How do I feel that digging soil is much more difficult than collecting money?"

"That is," a team member pouted, "We have cultivated 70 pieces of farmland in one go! Is this what normal players do?"

"Save some effort." Zheng Mingyue said casually, "There are still thirty pieces of farmland waiting to be dug."

Everyone felt a chill and did not dare to speak, and seized the time to regain their strength.

Looking at the vast fields, Zheng Mingyue was proud. He thought to himself, when he sits on a hundred pieces of farmland, and then sows the seeds on the ground, what should he worry about then? The crops alone can feed an entire team!

**

The 285th.

Coincidentally, I woke up early, ready to go to the well to fetch water and cook.

The sky was just getting dark, and there were not many players around.

She just picked up the bucket, and suddenly realized that the caption had changed--

[Name: Well built by the player "Yunling"]

Quality: Normal

Instructions for use: The player’s personal property, and other people use it, each time a copper coin needs to be paid.

Note: Due to weather factors, this well can pump up to 150 barrels of water per day.

Qiaoqiao was stunned.

More than 6,000 people in the entire territory use water for washing vegetables, cooking, and bathing. A well can pump up to 150 buckets of water a day. How can this be enough?

After thinking about it, she took a bucket of water and took it home, and then quietly woke up grandma. Before long, the two grandsons went out carrying wooden buckets and fetched water together.

In addition, Qiaoqiao also sent messages to close friends one by one, informing them that the territory was about to face water shortages.

"There are not enough wooden barrels in the house. Where can I put it back when I fetched water?" Mother-in-law Qian was worried.

She and her granddaughter are expecting to be in the territory and have not been out for a long time. Therefore, after a few days in summer, there was no sign of drought.

When I realized it, I lacked this and that, which was quite a mess.

"Use all the utensils that can hold water at home, and count as much as you can!" Qiao Qiao said decisively, turning his mind.

Granny Qian was extremely melancholy, "It can only be this way."

**

Yunling taught Zhao Xintong how to extract fresh water from seawater last night. After talking for a long time, he went to bed late and got up late this morning.

Stepping out of the stone house, seeing a long line next to the well, she was immediately startled, "What's wrong?"

There are more than fifty people in the queue. Follow-up players continue to hear the news and join the ranks.

Seeing that the team was getting longer and longer, with almost no end in sight, Yun Ling couldn't help being speechless.

At this moment, the female player at the top announced loudly, "I ran out of water fetches!"

The queuing residents were in a panic, "Not 150 times? Why did it run out?"

"No? I waited for half an hour!"

"What time is it? The well can't get water, how can I live the rest of the day?"

Female player: "Anyway, this well can't get water today, so it's all gone."

After speaking, she left with the bucket.

Someone walked away quickly, wanting to see if other wells could fetch water.

Some people didn't believe it, and went to look at the well. After reading the text clearly, he shook his head and left helplessly.

Yun Ling was curious and walked to the well to take a closer look.

I see the panel display-

[Name: Well built by the player "Yunling"]

Quality: Normal

Instructions for use: The player’s personal property, and other people use it, each time a copper coin needs to be paid.

Note: Due to weather factors, this well can pump up to 150 barrels of water per day. (It has dried up at present, we can continue to fetch water tomorrow)

"The lack of water has come, can the drought be far away?" Yunling looked far away, "I don't know what happened to the stream outside the territory."

**

The well water dries up, and the stream water is of course not much better.

Some players found that none of the seven draft wells in the territory had any water, so they immediately greeted their companions and walked towards the stream together.

At the end of the day, where is there a stream? Just a few small ponds.

It's all like this, and some people are holding wooden barrels and desperately filling water, seemingly intending to catch the last few drops of stream water.

But the sea is not affected at all, it is still vast.

"Have you learned how to extract fresh water from seawater in junior high school?" a person asked with a dumb face.

"I learned it before, but I have forgotten it a long time ago." The companion was extremely desperate, "How did you do it? It seems like you want to boil sea water?"

Others cried with their headaches, "What's the use of hoarding so much food? Without fresh water, they died of thirst in a few days!"

"The weather is so hot, and it's the last year, it will definitely be a drought! Why didn't I expect it earlier?" One of them showed decadence, wishing to slap himself a few times.

"Perhaps from the beginning, the game hopes that the human group will be destroyed." Another person sighed deeply.

When everyone was at a loss, Mo Qi pulled the white-clothed corner of Leng and motioned for the members to leave.

"What's the matter?" Leng Bai asked softly, making sure that he had already gone far.

Mo Qi's thinking was unprecedentedly clear, "Ice cubes are also water, and drinking ice water can ensure the most basic water intake."

"Doesn't our team have a water mage? Try drinking water polo and water waves."

"There is also a system-building restaurant in the territory, where iced drinks are not sold? After buying, it will not only cool down, but also quench thirst."

Leng Bai glanced at Mo Qi in surprise, "I think so too. Let's go, act quickly, don't let anyone get ahead."

**

The well dries up, the stream dries up, and the mountain stream is extinct, the situation becomes very serious all at once.

Residents are not in the mood to go out, all running around in the territory.

As a lord, Yunling patrolled the territory back and forth in order to grasp the situation as soon as possible.

After a while, it was discovered that the five wells that were originally built can produce up to 150 buckets of water.

Two wells have been built recently, with a maximum capacity of 120 barrels of water.

There is actually a difference between each other.

Hu Dacheng heard about the drying up of the draught well and took the initiative to send a message to explain, "I told you before that some places are well located, and the well water produced is more and sweet. Some places have ordinary locations, and the well water produced is less common. The taste is not that good."

Yunling: "I understand."

Yunling: "Keep working and drill as many wells as possible."

Hu Dacheng asked cautiously, "After I have a good water well, can I give priority to two buckets of water every day for employee benefits?"

Yun Ling laughed, "Of course it can."

With the promise of his boss, Hu Dacheng lifted his spirits and felt comfortable throughout his body. "Don't worry! I'm going to work!"

Closing the message, Yunling wanted to go to the beach and suddenly received a system prompt, [The player "Tian Zhehan" tried to dig a well in Lingyun City xxx, **** coordinates, do you agree? 】

[The player "Zhang Heng" tried to dig a well in Lingyun City xxx, **** coordinates, do you agree? 】

Obviously someone is desperate due to lack of water and intends to dig by themselves.

It is very hot, so it is of course good for someone to help dig a draft well.

Yunling didn't even ask them for the land fee, and just clicked "Agree".

After finishing the operation, she strolled towards the coast.

**

Near the sea, many players are helpless against the vast sea.

At this time, one person set up an iron pot, made a fire, and put sea water in the pot to boil.

The water is boiled quickly.

The sea water is gurgling and bubbling, and the heat is constantly evaporating.

The man put the lid of the pot on the top, took it off when the lid was covered with small water droplets, poured the water droplets into the wooden barrel, and then placed the lid on the iron pot again.

Several times in a row, the others recollected, "Isn't this the way to extract fresh water from sea water?!"

Look at the other person's familiar appearance, it looks very light.

If you also set up an iron pot and boil the sea water...the residents moved in their hearts, drawn on the gourd, and learned in a decent way.

But when it was their turn, they realized that it was not easy to make fresh water.

First, the wok must be purchased at the forge. Not to mention the high prices, the quantity of goods is still limited.

Secondly, firewood is needed to boil sea water. For ordinary players, the burden is quite heavy.

The most important thing is that after working for a long time, the fresh water produced is extremely limited. The barrel is covered with a shallow layer, even less than one-third. At this time, the firewood was used up, and he was sweating hot.

"This little water is only enough for daily drinking, isn't it?" one guilty muttered.

"You can drink fresh water, what else is not enough?" The person next to him was speechless.

The man thought again, "That's right."

As long as you live, there is hope.

Coincidentally, Lu Chuan also thought of refining fresh water from seawater. However, when he hurried to the beach, the residents had already taken action.

The firewood gathering, the firewood gathering, the firewood gathering. Others are staring at the iron pan intently, ready to collect water droplets at all times.

Upon seeing this, Lu Chuan didn't understand anything.

"It seems that she has thought of it in advance and arranged things well."

Realizing this, Lu Chuan smiled helplessly, "How can I be so capable..."

**

Players in Rising Clouds City are just having a difficult life, and players from other territories are already driving crazy.

Lime Tree Town.

Fire in Zhou Xin'en's throat was scorching, and smoke was thirsty.

He never expected that he had enough food and wood, but he would face the problem of water shortage!

In the absence of pure drinking water, no matter how strong it is, how high its attributes, and how well equipped it is, it is useless.

In the town, a water system mage stood on the street and set up a stall, "cast a C-level ‘water polo’ skill, five sweet potatoes."

"To cast the B-level'Waterfall' skill once, you need to pay three days of rations, plus two blue quality practical equipment."

"The mana is limited, first come first served, pre-orders as soon as possible."

This is clearly a robbery!

Zhou Xinen tightened his lips, his expression was very ugly.

But he doesn't want to be taken advantage of and slaughtered. Most of the people want to buy pure water.

In a short while, a group of people surrounded the water system mages and actively competed to be the first customer.

"Damn!" a person next to him yelled, "When the summer comes, the water mage has become a steamed bun, one is more arrogant than the other. I don't want to think about how the usual hunting combat effectiveness is weak, how do you live with your tail sandwiched!"

Dissatisfied and complained, but acted honestly. As soon as he finished his speech, without thinking, he strode towards the water system mage and joined the scramble.

Zhou Xinen's belly slander, and the whole game is more than just water masters! Can't buy here, he won't go to the market?

Unexpectedly, at the market, the number of tradable territories has dropped significantly.

Zhou Xinen remembered in a daze. He woke up in the morning and occasionally received a prompt that "XX Town was breached". At that time, I saw it close by hand, but I didn't care about it at all.

Unexpectedly, the safe area that unlocked the bazaar is gradually falling.

"How can I still care about others now? As long as I can survive." Thinking of this, Zhou Xinen quickly flipped through the market listings.

Perhaps because of the sudden increase in the difficulty of the game, players have practical items and are unwilling to sell them. They would rather stock up for a rainy day.

Therefore, Zhou Xinen turned over all the orders in the market for a long time, but did not see anyone selling pure water resources.

Will many people die of thirst this summer?

Inadvertently, this thought came to mind.

In the next second, the system prompt sounded, [Because the weather is too hot, you are slightly dehydrated, strength -5, agility -5, stamina -5, intelligence -5, and spirit -5. 】

The moment he saw the negative state, Zhou Xinen's heart sounded an alarm. He could no longer consider the question of whether water resources were expensive, and turned around and rushed out of the bazaar, hurried to the water system mage.

**

The 287th.

[Lingyun City has ten wells, and the temperature in the territory has dropped significantly. 】

[The territorial water well has reached the upper limit and cannot continue to be excavated. 】

"The upper limit is 10?" Yunling is extremely regretful, "If it is 20, that would be great."

If there are 20 draft wells, residents can resume their normal lives.

Now, it's a bit tight, but life can survive.

In this regard, Zhao Xintong has a different view.

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: After entering the summer, Lingyun City will reduce its staff by more than 300 people. Isn’t this pretty good if you don’t control it...]

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: There are more than 1,500 people in Xintong Town. Four hundred people died this time. I don't think the casualty rate is high. 】

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: It is normal for the residents to die half and 70% to 80% due to drought. 】

Yun Ling: "This is summer and everyone is dead. What should I do in autumn and winter?"

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Nothing. Summer can’t last, so how can I think about autumn and winter? 】

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: The game is too difficult. Players die involuntarily. 】

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: There are many talents in the territory of Lingyun City, and there are many master players, which is purely an exception. 】

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Open the rankings and glance at it. So far, only Lingyun City has been upgraded to the "city" level, and the rest are small towns. 】

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: It is a pity that the dog game does not allow cross city. If you don't take the land and throw it away, I will take the NPC directly, take all the belongings, and rush to Lingyun City to rush to you. 】

Yunling, "..."

You are a lord player! Don't the territory still work?

**

Under the shade of the tree, Shi Qing was stunned. She had an inexplicable hunch that she seemed to have come to an end.

Making fresh water is not as easy as imagined. There are many difficulties that I only notice when I encounter them.

For example, collecting firewood and setting fire to boil water all require energy.

There are only a few free activities a day, and the fresh water production is occupied, so the time for gathering and hunting will naturally be reduced accordingly.

In addition, she was alone, and she didn't save much in the first and second years. Sometimes she had bad luck and had to eat and store food if she got a little bit less. After going back and forth, the inventory is exhausted, and there is no left at all.

"It's almost over, just in these two days." Shi Qing whispered.

Before the voice was over, a demon boss, a fire element boss, and a gargoyle boss had three loaves to complete the attack.

"I'm so tired, I can finally rest." Before losing consciousness, Shi Qing felt a touch of relief.

**

On the territory panel, the numbers in the column of existing residents are falling slowly, but they are still steadily declining.

-26.

-37.

-11.

-19.

...

When the summer is over, the data will be updated to -

【Inhabitable population: 30000】

【Existing residents: 4821. 】

The summer is scorching and too long. Many people fell in the last few days, failing to welcome the arrival of autumn.

"There are still autumn and winter seasons." Yunling's right hand clenched into a fist unconsciously.

**

Day 311.

Just waking up in the morning, a few lines of text came into sight.

[Congratulations to the players for successfully passing the third year of summer. 】

[You get a clearance reminder. 】

[With the city as the boundary, players are automatically divided into different service areas.

Customs clearance conditions-at the end of the third year, the number of survivors in any service area is> 1, and the number of players surviving is> 100.

Reach the customs clearance conditions, go back in time, and restore everything to before the game started.

If the clearance conditions are not met, the game is over, and the human race is destroyed. 】

"What this means is," Yunling murmured, "To achieve the final victory, everything is a clumsy April Fool's Day joke; if the final victory cannot be achieved, human beings will be destroyed without saying a word?"

"It's even more miserable than the extinction of the dinosaurs..."

But then I thought about it and felt reasonable, "Nothing is immortal, including planetary rulers. Human beings, as planetary hegemons, have dominated for a long time. Perhaps there is a mysterious force in the dark that decides to replace humans and support It’s not necessarily true that the new species will have a high status."

Yunling's brain was wide open, and his thoughts ran away and couldn't get it back.

At this time, several messages popped out.

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Big Brother! ! ! Have you seen the latest clearance prompt? ! ! 】

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Complete the clearance conditions, go back in time, and everything will be restored to before the start of the game. 】

[F City-Xintong Town-Zhao Xintong: Ahhhhh! I miss the crayfish, barbecue, milk tea, Bing Kuo Luo, Peking duck, buffet, teppanyaki, pork bun, cold noodles, hot pot, double skin milk, spicy tang, snail noodles! 】

Yunling, "..."

Is it really a big man to report the menu early in the morning?

She looked hungry.
