Chapter 1: How to celebrate the New Year without pumpkins

Winter is coming, and that's what we agreed on after waking up the next day. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking out the window, the snow-capped earth, even the grassland, was covered with a layer of snow.

The weather was very gloomy, and the snowflakes were constantly falling, slowly and leisurely falling on the ground.

For a moment, the world seemed to have changed, turning from golden to pure white.

Although this view is very pleasing to our eyes, the pure white world. But it's not good news for us.

The sudden drop in temperature made us feel a chill when we got up.

"Hmm, it's cold." I suddenly felt the urge not to get up, tightened my clothes, and I picked up a woolen jacket and put it on.

The coats we wear today are made from wool sheared from sheep and then made from a tool table. During the production process, I deliberately put some more materials, because I don't like the kind of clothes like small vests, so I made a wool coat directly.

A white coat that Akai and I wore shortly after feeling a chill and being evicted.

"So, what are we supposed to do this winter?" Walking to the lobby on the first floor, I sat down on a chair and asked Akai.

Akai straightened his clothes and sat down as well. The dim weather did not affect the brightness of the room, and the fire was still bright.

"I don't know, we have done everything we can last season, we have already stocked up on food, we don't have anything to worry about, and there is nothing to do." After taking a sip of hot water, Akai said to me, "Or... Let's go on an adventure? ”

"Huh? Right now? It's just the beginning of winter. I was surprised to say that although I wanted to explore too, it was such a cold day that made me want to stay at home.

"Again... Do you have the disease of being able to stay at home and not do anything? Akai complained to me.

"Nothing." I retorted, but seriously, if you don't want to go out, you don't want to go out.

[Ahh Xiaobai yawned sleepily.

[It seems that I won't do anything today, sleep and sleep~] and continue to lie down.

“···”

“··· Hey, hey! Covering his forehead, Akai looked at Xiaobai helplessly.

"Well, I'm resting at home today, just take stock of the clutter, and one of my spells has been completed." Spread my hands, I signify the birth of new magic.

Akai stretched, then asked me, "Oh? What kind of magic is it, can you use it to see? ”

"No problem."

In the middle of the conversation, I stood up, "Let's go, let's go outside, I'll show you." ”

Backyard.

"Let's go, it's getting colder and colder outside, and I want to go home and have a good fire." Akai urged.

"Ahh Scratch my head, I'm helpless.

"No way, if you don't want to go out, I won't go out." Akai expressed regret.

As we talked, I was already working on the magic.

"[Alice's Magic Book]" I shouted, and the magic book I named so flew out of my arms, floated in front of me, and slowly opened.

The pages rolled and stopped on one side of the page with dense creatures.

"I'll let you see it, Master Worm's housekeeping skills."

I raised my hands, unleashing my magic, docking with the atmosphere.

After half a ring.

【Insect Swarming】!

"Wow!!" Akai covered his eyes and took a step back.

Above my head, all around, a steady stream of flying insects was gathering, more and more, densely packed in a large swarm.

"Hmm, stop, it's disgusting, bastard!!" Akai yelled at me.

The flying swarm caused a huge commotion, and it was not without a price for me, my ears were almost killed by the swarm of bugs.

I dissipated the output of my magic, leaving behind a small collection of flying insects.

"Hoo ······" I wiped the cold sweat from my head and said with palpitations: "Actually, I'm still very afraid of insects." ”

"What perverted magic, and! You said you're afraid of insects, who believes it, didn't you just summon it very happy?! Akai shouted at me.

"Really, trust me, these things just look like bugs······ Just looks ······" I replied weakly.

At my request, Akai turned his head and looked carefully at the flying insects that were flying around in the air.

The glittering wings shimmered with magical light, bringing a little bit of color in the air, and fortunately it was a gloomy day to be seen.

These flying insects summoned by me are creatures condensed by magical power, and they can maintain their form in the world for a period of time, and then dissipate and return to the atmosphere as their magic power is exhausted.

[Insect Swarm]: Summons swarms to attack and harass enemies.

Factions: Plants

Runes: Red, Yellow, Blue, Colorless, White

Mana Cost: 125/500/2500

————————I'm the first dividing line of winter————————

After demonstrating the terrifying swarm summoning magic, Akai and I headed home. But we don't have much to do at home.

After making a new set of iron equipment, Akai said he wanted to build a snowman.

"Snowman?" I straightened my hair, which was messed up by the air currents generated by the swarm, "But we don't have pumpkins?" ”

I haven't cut my hair in three months, and my medium-length broken hair has grown a lot.

Pumpkins, an uncommon plant, are most commonly found in forests and jungles, but rarely in deserts, snow-covered and mountain veins, and may occur in large quantities in swamps. Pumpkins are a renewable resource.

Pumpkins are grown in the same way as watermelons. Pumpkin seeds are planted and grow into pumpkin stems until they reach maturity, after which the pumpkin will regenerate on a blank dirt or grass adjacent to the mature pumpkin stem, which can be obtained in abandoned mineshaft chests or crafted from pumpkins.

It is characterized by an earthy yellow color, and one side is carved with a face shape.

Pumpkins can be used for many purposes, they can be carved in a designated position and then carved by hand, after which the pumpkin can be made into jack-o'-lanterns.

Of course, it can also be worn on your head so that your head looks like a pumpkin. It's not very defensible, though, but it does have a great effect: when you're wearing a pumpkin, you can't be detected by endermen. However, the relative field of view will be affected to some extent.

This stuff has a variety of uses, and of course it can be eaten!

Making pumpkin pie into pumpkin pie not only takes a long time to store, but it also tastes quite good.

Naturally, pumpkins are also necessary to build a snowman.

In this world, the snowman is a living creature that can be counted as a special form of artificially created life.

When a pumpkin is placed on two snow blocks, a snowman is born.

For the creator, the snowman is friendly. However, when hostile mobs, such as monsters, approach, the snowman will automatically throw snowballs at them. When the snowman moves, it leaves a trail of snow on the ground, but when the snowman is destroyed, it turns into a pile of snowballs.

However, while the Yeti can throw snowballs, it does not do any real damage. You can't ask for a bunch of guys who just throw that kind of painless snowball to do much damage, at best it serves as a warning that there are monsters around us.

Of course, snowmen are also capable of dealing damage.

The only thing they can do is blazes.

After all, water overcomes fire.

Although I thought about it so much······

"But where are you going to find pumpkins!!" I took a bite of the bread slice ———— because a whole loaf of bread was too big, so I used to cut it into slices and eat it slowly.

"Well, it's dry, drink water."

Akai looked at the stove that was burning, then at his backpack, thought about it and said to me, "Let's go." Go on an adventure and look for pumpkins along the way. ”

"What?" I didn't hear clearly for a while.

"I said, let's go look for the pumpkins, there's nothing to do anyway."

“······ Well, I was convinced by you. "There's really nothing to do!

Before I went out, though, I took out a set of wheat from the box we had dedicated to wheat.

"I'll go first and feed the sheep, it's going to be a few days away to find pumpkins this time, and I don't want all the sheep to starve to death when I get home." With that, I opened the door and walked to the sheepfold in the backyard.

By the way, two lambs have been born recently, congratulations, congratulations.

"Well, then I'll go prepare food and weapons."

With that, Akai walked towards the second floor.
