Chapter 2 Above the South Pole

Got a castle?

Before Chen Yuan could react, he saw a flash in front of him, and then the surrounding environment changed.

Surrounded by a vast white area, take a closer look, but it is a world of ice and snow, as far as the eye can see, there is an endless pure white snow, there are crystal clear glaciers in the distance, in addition to white ice and snow or white ice and snow, sometimes with one or two relatively large ice blocks, it looks like it is in the South Pole or the North Pole.

I was still on the wet and stuffy Lishui bank just now, why did I go to the ice and snow now, was I dizzy from being beaten by Boss Wu's group, and the guide had hallucinations?

Chen Yuan rubbed his eyes and pulled the wound at the corner of his mouth, it hurt terribly, only to find that it was not an illusion, but a real scene.

And a cold wind blew, and suddenly the wound seemed to be sprinkled with a handful of salt, making him almost exhale in pain.

The temperature around is really low enough, I am afraid that it is below zero, and the wind is strong enough, Chen Yuan is wearing a summer short-sleeved shirt, and in the blink of an eye, he sees that his whole person is about to become an ice sculpture, and he feels that his body is frozen from the outside to the inside, and it seems that his heart will stop beating in the next moment.

Didn't a voice just say that he had acquired a castle?

Whether it was true or not, Chen Yuan only hoped that he would come to a house as soon as possible and not freeze to death in this unknown ice and snow.

"Congratulations, you have purchased this one-of-a-kind castle, please select the castle location."

As if he knew the wish in Chen Yuan's heart, the crisp and pleasant voice sounded again.

"That's it." Chen Yuan's body could no longer move, and he responded as quickly as he could, with the soles of his feet that had not yet been completely frozen.

"Wait a minute."

A pleasant prompt sounded, and with a flicker of his eyes, a building appeared in front of him.

Is this a castle?

After seeing this building, Chen Yuan was a little dumbfounded.

Standing in front of him was a small straw house of about ten square meters, a straw house that can only be seen in the countryside of his hometown, not to mention the appearance of a castle, even the roof of the house has no tiles, but is also covered with withered yellow straw, and when the wind blows, it will fall to one side, as if it will be lifted off at any moment.

The only straw door was even more broken, not to mention the lock, there was not a single button, it was placed there crookedly, and when the cold wind blew, it made a strange creaking sound, which was worse than the sound of grinding iron with stones.

This is his castle?

His heart was full of thoughts, but Chen Yuan still used the last trace of strength in his body, and immediately slammed open the creaking grass door, bent down and fell in, and then pressed the door back after entering.

Although it was a crumbling straw house, the temperature inside the house was still a little higher than outside, at least to about zero degrees, Chen Yuan shivered, and began to look at the house while pulling off a few straws and rubbing his body.

The house was empty, less than ten square meters, the ground was covered with a thin layer of straw, and there was a small window on the left, which was also a straw window, fortunately the window was closed, and he didn't need to go over and close it again, with his current body, it was a question of whether he could take another step.

Could it be that I threw a hundred-dollar bill into the river to buy this castle?

After glancing at it, Chen Yuan had this guess in his heart.

I was a little happy to get a castle just now, but such a leaky straw house, let alone in this ghost place, is in the countryside of my hometown, and there are many straws in the fields.

Chen Yuan was still depressed, and rows of words and numbers suddenly appeared in his mind.

Location: South Pole of Earth.

Castle Level: 0.

Number of castle outbuildings: 0.

Number of castle guards: 0.

Number of Castle Professionals: 0.

Castle Points: 0.

It turned out to be in Antarctica!

Seeing the first line, Chen Yuan was startled, no wonder it was so cold, the city of Ning, where he was a few minutes ago, had just arrived in the middle of summer, and it was in the northern hemisphere, if this was Antarctica, then on the contrary, it was the coldest winter of the year.

Chen Yuan is very clear about the extreme climate of Antarctica, even in the marginal areas, the average temperature in summer is only about 0 °C, the highest is about 10 °C, and the lowest is about minus 3 °C; In winter, the average temperature is only minus 8°C, the highest is only about 2°C, and the lowest is minus 30°C.

In other words, coupled with the strong wind of twenty meters per second, with the summer three-piece suit on his body, in less than a minute, I am afraid that he will freeze to death here.

I bought a sheltered house for a hundred dollars, and it looks like it's worth it now.

After the shock, Chen Yuan continued to read, and he could still understand the first four lines, but he didn't understand what the "castle points" in the fifth line represented.

Before I could think about it, that pleasant prompt sound appeared in my head again-

"Important Note 1: The current castle level is too low, and there are potential safety hazards, please upgrade as much as possible!"

"Important Note 2: The current castle level is 0, it can be upgraded to level 1, is it upgraded?"

"Upgrade."

Chen Yuan didn't hesitate, although the straw house has the feeling of a fairy tale, it is not suitable for this ice and snow, so it is better to change to a warmer one.

"It costs 10,000 castle points to upgrade, and your castle points balance is insufficient to upgrade, please recharge as much as possible."

Can I still top up my points?

Before Chen Yuan could react, the prompt sound sounded again: "In view of the fact that you use the castle for the first time, it will only prompt once, and the points can be recharged and exchanged for huàn with Huaxia coins, and 10,000 Huaxia coins are equal to 10,000 castle points." ”

This time Chen Yuan heard and understood, it turned out that the points of the castle could be directly exchanged for money, and his heart couldn't help but move, 10,000 yuan in his other bank account, this was the only 10,000 yuan left on his body, and he was originally going to be the last life-saving money, but now that he has this castle that can be upgraded, Chen Yuan gritted his teeth and decided to invest it all in for upgrades.

Ding Dong, the idea of making a decision just came to mind, and the prompt voice in my mind came: "You have recharged and exchanged 10,000 castle points with Huaxia coins at 2 pm on July 1, 20××, and now the total number of points is 10,000, meet the upgrade conditions, do you want to upgrade?" ”

"Level up!" Chen Yuan responded quickly with anticipation.

"Congratulations, your castle has been successfully upgraded, and the current level is level 1."

After the prompt, Chen Yuan looked up and found that he was still in the house, still leaning against the door behind him, but the straw door was changed to a wooden door, and the straw around the roof was also replaced with wood, and the area of the house changed from the original ten square meters to about twenty square meters.

The most important thing is that the gap between the wooden planks and the wooden planks is tight, and without the air leakage of the straw house just now, the temperature in the house instantly rises by two or three degrees, and the frozen body suddenly dissolves.

The floor in the room has also been upgraded from straw to wooden planks, and although the planks are rough, they are still in shape.

Chen Yuan knocked on the wooden board with his hand, making a dull sound, and touched it carefully, but he still couldn't tell what kind of wood it was, giving people an unclear feeling.

Although it is in Antarctica, the area is not large, and it is still made of wood, but it is finally a house of its own.
