5. Red berries
Her backpack now contains: Lord's Token (does not take up space), Rope*10, Gravel*2, Wood*5, empty, empty
Tree Side: Broken Trap*1, Rough Needle*1, Broken Branch*31, Leaf*19, Fiber Chip*3, Wood Needle*1 (Durability 4/20)
In fact, Su Yu's choice of a resting place was not chosen randomly, she deliberately found a vacant place with shelter on all sides, which was not only a temporary resting place, but also a temporary place for her to live tonight.
Putting all the useless materials that were just used for ignition here, and putting some more important items on his body, Su Yu was now going to leave here to do three things.
First, place a small trap in the forest that she has just made.
Second, look for edible food in the forest.
Third, continue to look for the missing piece of rubble, and then craft an axe to chop down the tree.
Although twigs can be crafted into wood, they are too slow and time-consuming.
Su Yu didn't rest for a long time, but her current state has returned from 'slightly tired' to 'normal', and her stamina has increased from 51 to 72.
If she had recovered at two points per minute, she would have rested for about ten minutes, but in fact she had rested for far more than ten minutes, but because she was making wooden needles and small traps, although she was not very tired, she still consumed some physical strength.
However, 72 points of stamina is enough.
Su Yu patted the dirt and dust on his body, marked the location, and then returned the same way with three traps in his hands.
She was going to go back to her spawn point first, as she remembered seeing a few bushes of berries with edible fruits at the back of the spawn point.
On the way back, she looked around, and when she saw some small marks, she placed the small trap in her hand in the hidden corner around the traces.
Only half the way, the three traps in Su Yu's hand were all placed.
There was no need to observe the animal traces around him, Su Yu walked much faster than before, and after a while, he left the outskirts of the forest and came to the location of the spawn point.
As it turned out, her memory was not wrong, for when she came out of the forest, she saw several shrubs of varying heights growing under a large tree on the left side of the front, and round and full red fruits hung from the bushes.
Su Yu looked at his hunger value, which had dropped to 59 points, and then walked to the berry bush, first picked some and ate them, and after pulling the hunger value to the full value, he began to collect the remaining berries.
【Red Berry】
Category: Food
Quality: White
Attribute: Hunger +6 after eating
Introduction: A kind of red berry that grows on the bushes, with a sweet taste, full and juicy taste, can relieve thirst to a certain extent when eaten, but it is extremely perishable.
Although the game's character panel only shows hunger and no thirst, the game has a lot of hidden properties, and some things don't mean they don't mean they don't exist.
If you don't eat thirst-quenching food for a long time, your character's status will change, and even a debuff (debuff/aura) will appear in severe cases.
Similarly, drinking water in this game can actually increase hunger value, although it is very small, and drinking a large bucket only adds 1 point, but there have been people who have been drinking stream water frantically for a long time because they have not found food to solve their thirst and hunger problems.
Although the stream water is non-toxic and harmless, he eventually gets the debuff because he can't eat thirst-quenching things, and he can't eat staple foods without eating a satisfying staple.
The reason red berries are arguably one of the most important items in the early game for beginners is that they are the only food in the entire game that has both the labels 'thirst-quenching' and 'satisfying' without any processing (emphasis added).
It's only in the early stage, even in the late game, those big city lords who wear gold and silver on the surface and have a noble status, and have countless capable people under their command, who respond to every call, are still living 'miserable' by eating red berries for convenience behind their backs.
However, red berries, while good, also have a fatal drawback, which is the extremely short shelf life, which is also illustrated by the words 'extremely perishable' mentioned in the introduction.
In the absence of any preservation measures, the shelf life of red berries is only about two days, and after two days, it will become 'spoiled red berries', at this time, although eating them again can also increase hunger and quench thirst, but the increased hunger value is less, and there is a certain chance to get the 'diarrhea' debuff.
Su Yu, as an experienced person, naturally wouldn't let this happen, so she just picked a group (fifty) of berries and prepared to leave.
Fifty berries is three hundred hunger points, although it looks very small, but the berries can be processed and eaten, and the hunger value of the processed berries will increase more, and the shelf life will increase slightly.
The method of processing red berries is simple, at least with what Suyu currently has.
In addition, the red berry bush is not very far from her temporary foothold, and if it is not enough, she can come and pick it at any time, and picking too much at one time will take up space in her backpack...... So one set is enough.
With one more set of red berries, there was only one slot left in Su Yu's backpack.
She then took the opposite path to the forest, ready to complete her third task, which was to find gravel.
I don't know if it's because of the problem with her vision of choosing the path before, Su Yu only walked a few steps on this second path that was completely opposite to the previous one, and when she turned around, she could even see the bushes, and she actually found two pieces of gravel next to each other in a row.
【Obtain Gravel*2】
Su Yu: ...... Is this good luck or bad luck?
If she was unlucky, she managed to find the gravel, and there was no situation where she couldn't even make an axe.
If she was lucky, then she should have chosen this path a long time ago, knowing that she was just bending down to pick up the gravel, because as her gaze became lower, Su Yu saw the third gravel covered by an unknown low bush.
【Obtain Gravel*1】
Looking at the three gravels in his hand, Su Yu fell into a short silence.
After a few seconds of silence, she threw the gravel onto the workbench.
【Do you want to make crushed stone*3 into stone*1?】 】
[Making: Stone, estimated time: 60 seconds]
After waiting for a minute to make the stone, Su Yu rummaged around again, trying to find the fourth piece of gravel in the area.
Although she now has the crushed stone to make axes, there is more than one tool that needs crushed stone in the early stage, and all tools are durable, and she can only remake new tools before there is no way to make items to restore the durability of the tools.
