Chapter 9: A Wave of Abundant Harvest

[Countdown: 6 minutes 02 seconds]

Although he was very tired, Chen Shi still didn't dare to rest.

The stone axe was still on the pig monster's body, but fortunately he had already cut down the tree in advance.

Chen Shi raised his spear and slashed at the fallen tree.

The spear is not good at these movements, but the edge is sharp enough that it can be done just by chopping branches.

Chen Zhi cut down all the branches that bore fruit.

In this way, not only food was collected, but also wood was collected incidentally.

After tidying up, Chen Shi found two soft branches, tied them up, and then hung one part on a spear and carried it, and the other part was dragged with the other hand.

It took about a minute to sort it out.

Chen Shi didn't dare to stay longer, even if there were still some fruits on the branches, he didn't dare to collect them anymore.

The last time I went back in the three-minute countdown, the oppressive feeling of the end was already terrifying.

If you are greedy, you have to take it back.

Return!

The heavens and the earth were filled with thick smoke and dust, and the clouds were delicate red.

In this dark environment, if it weren't for the strange light of the space-time gate, they might not be able to find their way home.

Chen Shi carried a large bundle of branches with his spear and a small bundle of branches with his other hand, walking in this apocalypse.

[Countdown: 3 minutes and 15 seconds]

"It's here!"

This time was calculated by Chen Zhi, and it was only a few seconds away from the last time.

After all, in an unknown environment, I don't know where the pit is, and it is safest to take the old road.

Without stopping for a moment, Chen Zhi walked directly into the space-time gate.

The space-time portal disappears.

In the black fog in the distance, there were a pair of eyes looking at this place, full of doubts.

Black Tower.

[The door of time and space is closed, and time has left a mark on your soul. 】

Hear this prompt again.

Compared to last time, he didn't feel anything at all, and this time Chen Shi felt a sense of irritability.

This is a very mysterious feeling, and Chen Zhi himself can't say it.

In short, Chen Zhi understands one thing, the space-time gate is definitely not entered by prostitutes for nothing, there must be some price.

"When will we be able to build a self-sufficient production line without relying on the space-time gate..."

Chen Shi sighed helplessly.

I don't want to think about that for now.

Now it's time to happily clean up the loot.

"11 fruits, not bad."

Chen Shi counted the food first.

Don't look at 11, it doesn't seem like much, but this fruit is very large, and the flesh is full and dense, and it is very full.

One meal is better than three.

If you want to say that there is a fly in the ointment, it is that there will be hallucinations.

Or the neighbor's dog that always appears.

As for wood, it's even more.

On the first day, he just collected fallen branches, enough to make a three-meter spear, plus the long handle of a stone axe.

Almost six or seven times as many as on the first day.

"I just didn't collect any stones."

This time, I mainly collected food and wood, and I didn't have time to collect stones.

If you want to make a stone axe, you can't make it.

But Chen Shi can't think about it that much now.

After the fight just now and the consumption of collected materials, I am very hungry now.

Pick up a large fruit and take a big bite of it.

It's the third time I've eaten it, but it's still delicious.

If it weren't for the hallucinogenic effect, if he sold it in the world where he used to live, it would definitely sell well all over the world.

No, it seems to have a hallucinogenic effect, maybe someone really has a good bite of this.

Soon Chen Shi ate cleanly, and even cherished the juice very much, and there was no waste.

I have to say that Chen Shi was the first to discover a reliable food source, and this big fruit is really good.

Not only the problem of rations has been solved, but even the problem of drinking water has been solved together.

A dog shadow gradually came out.

I don't know if I've eaten too much of this fruit, and I've already eaten immunity.

Har Tat staggered for a while, then disappeared.

It seems that as he eats more and more fruits, this hallucination called Ha Tsai has basically disappeared.

I don't know why, Chen Zhi, who noticed this, was not too happy.

Maybe it's too lonely.

The black tower was empty, and he just yelled loudly into the tower, and there was no echo.

But Chen Zhi is well aware that now is not the time for sentimentality.

Today's review hasn't been done yet, and some planning needs to be done now.

"The fruit can be temporarily rehydrated, but it is not a solution to rely on the fruit to meet the water demand all the time, and you still have to find a place to drink."

"In addition to the water source, I can't always rely on cold weapons in terms of force, and the black bear monster in the simulation is a good example of failure."

"Whether it's looking for metal or water, and then looking for that black bear monster, it's worthless."

"Tomorrow's simulation can go in a different direction, and we should go in other directions to explore more simulations."

"The training of the spear should still be maintained, but the time investment should be reduced, and the time should be divided to find the blank parchment roll and prepare for the upgrade of the weapon."

"Those parchment scrolls with information will drain mental energy, collect them but read them with caution."

Chen Shi picked up the stone and wrote his summary and plan on the ground.

The words written on the ground yesterday have not disappeared, and they are right next to it.

"It's convenient to have a notebook and a pen."

Chen Shi stood up and patted the ash on his hands.

The next step is to act according to the plan.

After resting for a while, Chen Shi continued to practice the spear.

The training of spears is inherently simple, and it is even easier to train only against beasts without thinking about fighting against people.

After this period of training, Chen Zhi has basically reached the beginning of spears.

Once a spear is introduced, it is a sword that others have practiced for a few years, and the lower limit is never a joke.

After a long spear training, Chen Shi stopped.

The next step is to look for parchment in the Black Tower.

Exploring the Black Tower is no easy task.

Except for the ground on the side of the main building, it is quite intact.

The roads in other areas are very rough, with potholes and cliffs everywhere, and beneath the cliffs are the Void Abyss.

The ground inside the Black Tower is more like a small star stone floating in space.

The difference between it and space may be that the ground inside the Black Tower still exists and does not float in mid-air.

Three parchments on the first day, all in the main building area.

Outside the main building area, it's not easy to find one.

Chen Shi explored for half a day and only found a piece of parchment.

Moreover, the parchment was still on a floating gravel beyond the intact ground, and although it was not far away, Chen Zhi could still not reach it even with a spear.

As for jumping over?

Chen Shi looked at the bottomless abyss under his feet, but still gave up this idea.

"It seems that parchment is not so easy to obtain."

Chen Shi was also tired after several hours of continuous exploration.
