One Day in Heaven, One Year on Earth
[Gino Mobile Phone (Excellent)]
[Description]: With its simple appearance, small and pleasing size, comfortable grip, and durable construction, the Gino Mobile Phone gradually lost its competitiveness after smartphones dominated the market, becoming a rising star in the Old Phone market. [Special Abilities]: Signal Search: Automatically searches for navigational species within 50 kilometers of a mobile signal source, currently storing species information (humans, kobolds). Review: Although grandparents don't know how to use a mobile phone, they always want to be able to find you as soon as they pick it up! "A pretty practical function, quite useful for searching other shelter camps." After giving this review, Su Mo took the phone to the power strip, found a USB charging cable, and started charging the Old Phone.
I tried to examine the other miscellaneous items that had been brought out, but unfortunately, I couldn't find a single item with special abilities.
"Woof! Woof!"
"Coo coo coo~ coo coo"
On the other side, Oreo looked at the listless-looking Big and Little Spark in the Crop Cultivation Room and called out anxiously.
Stepping into the Breeding Room, Su Mo immediately saw the Big and Little Spark lying on the ground, as well as the water basin in front of him.
"Huh, I remember filling them with water before I left, how come they drank it all so quickly!"
"Hmm? The tomatoes have sprouted too! But why do these sprouts look a bit wilted, just like the Big and Little Spark?"
Seeing that a large sprout had grown on the Culture Medium, Su Mo quickly went to the Psionic Water, scooped out a few ladles of water, first added it to the Big and Little Spark, and then poured it onto the Culture Medium.
The Psionic Water, tinged with blue, turned visibly green as soon as it entered the Culture Medium, like a sweet dew. Some of the yellowish buds began to turn emerald green.
After fiddling with it a couple of times to make sure everything was alright, Su Mo returned to the Youneng Water Well to collect yesterday's earnings.
However, as the water was stirred, Su Mo's expression began to change drastically.
The 15L water bucket was now completely full, and with a slight shake, quite a bit of water fell into the well.
15L of water was stored overnight?
"Damn it, the time spent entering the ruins might not be six times, nor one night, but more than a day."
"Today is probably already the 11th or even the 12th of the Doomsday Calendar!"
"The plant growth on the Culture Medium, the state of the Big and Little Spark, damn it, how could I not have imagined that the time span of this ruin would be so terrifying!"
After filling the water tank with all the water, Su Mo sat on the stone bench, quickly focused his attention, and called upon the system.
Knock knock!
A virtual timer popped up, and sure enough, three more messages appeared in the place where I used to check my Survival Points gains for the day.
[Doomsday Calendar January 10th]
[January 11th of the Doomsday Calendar]
[January 12th of the Doomsday Calendar]
"It's not past eight o'clock yet. If we calculate it that way, the current date is probably the 13th of the Doomsday Calendar!"
"This time, the time spent inside the ruins was more than forty times longer; two hours inside amounted to a full eighty hours outside!!!"
Shut down the system and open the chat panel.
Su Mo went straight to the Area Channel and checked the number of survivors: 812.
Before entering the ruins yesterday, Su Mo clearly remembered that there were as many as 890 people on the Area Channel.
Seventy people died overnight? Shaking his head, Su Mo tried asking on the Area Channel: [Su Mo: Does anyone remember what day Earth Calendar January is today?]
As soon as he finished speaking, the previously quiet Area Channel suddenly became lively.
[Liang Jian: Oh dear, Su God must be too busy. He forgot that today is January 4th on Earth Calendar. There are only 10 days left until our Chinese Lunar Little New Year!]
[Cai Junfeng: Liang Jian, don't talk nonsense. The 15th is the Little New Year's Eve, there are still 11 days left. I've been in the wasteland for 13 days now, I've gotten used to the time here.]
[Liang Jian: Bullshit! Su God is definitely from the North. We Northerners celebrate the Little New Year on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the 14th!]
Seeing the chat channel erupt into arguments about whether to celebrate the Little New Year on the 23rd or the Little New Year of the twelfth lunar month, Su Mo silently closed the chat panel.
"It's actually been almost 80 hours, which is even more exaggerated than the last time when it only took 7 hours."
"Was it because I damaged something inside the ruins, or because I took too much stuff with me?"
Sitting on the stool, Su Mo quickly thought about what he had done in the ruins.
If we take into account the "useless" information Feng Mengyue gave us before, plus the information about the ruins we've collected during this period...
No one has ever experienced such a terrifying time difference.
Of course, none of the people who discussed the ruins in the World Channel chat dared to walk around or destroy them recklessly inside.
Trying it out, Su Mo opened his friends list and began looking for people who could gather information.
His gaze swept across all his friends, and Su Mo spotted two people.
Li Xiufeng, Chen Ping An.
The former is someone who obtains the Culture Medium by fighting monsters, while the latter is a powerful player who gets the Monster Compendium at the start of the game and later provides materials for crossbows.
Both of them should be quite powerful, and they certainly won't let the ruins go.
[Su Mo: Do you have any information about entering the ruins? Let's discuss it.]
Su Mo sent a message to both of them at the same time, and looking at the private message panel that had not yet received a reply, he could only wait quietly.
"There must be people like me who dare to go out and explore, but they don't share their information. If we're judging by the extent of damage they cause to the ruins, then it's terrible!"
Thinking about leaving the neighboring courtyard where the fire had been raging, Su Mo suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
If we're really talking about destruction, if you had just sent a package in and collected all the junk inside, everything would probably have changed beyond recognition.
It might even fast forward to the Doomsday Calendar.
Although we can accumulate a lot of Survival Points at the current pace, all the advantages we gained in the early stages will be lost.
Even after one or two hundred days, the shelter may be destroyed by the disaster, and even the Survival Points given by the daily survival environment assessment may disappear.
"Hiss, impulsiveness is the devil. Although we got a lot of good stuff this time, time is running out!"
"Only eight days left until the Snow Disaster arrives!" Silently calculating the schedule in my mind, a sense of tension returned.
The problem of the Kobold Castle remains unresolved, the humans in the Saltpeter Mine camp are still enslaved, and there is still no sign of a nearby human Gathering Place.
And there is still no news about the Shelter Core to be upgraded for the refuge.
Eight days.
"No more sleep! I'm going to collect the toluene and diesel from the Deep Sea Shelter later, and figure out a way to mass-produce Picric Acid bombs. We need to quickly eliminate the kobold camp's fighting force, and..."
"Find a nearby human refuge!"
Thinking this way, Su Mo's anxiety subsided somewhat, and he silently recited the system's instructions to check his gains over the past three days.
[Doomsday Calendar January 10th]
You have acquired your first high-quality, sustainable resource - Oil Well (Survival Points +100)
[You have successfully crafted your first weapon with a damage output exceeding 100 (Survival Points +100)]
You now have a second shelter, further increasing your safety (Survival Points +200)

[Scanning the host's living environment, Survival Points assessment in progress. 122 Survival Points obtained today.]

[Scanning the host's living environment, Survival Points assessment in progress. 122 Survival Points obtained today.]
Final settlement: Survival Points +122 Remaining Survival Points: 1590 "My Survival Points have recovered to 1500. It's a pity that if I had been more active outside these past three days, this number would have been even higher. But one can't be greedy, after all..."
After glancing at the various odds and ends in the living room, as well as the LCD TV and air conditioner, Su Mo slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and began to boil water and cook.
With three bags of flour, the pressure of survival was greatly relieved, and it was time for the familiar, filling Noodle Soup. Before Su Mo could even finish cooking...
A private message notification popped up.
