In Wind and Rain

"The rain is getting heavier, but it's so cold."

Feeling the temperature was even lower than expected, Ye Qian curled up into a ball.

I'm soaked through, but there are benefits to the continued effort. Many areas of the territory are now quite secure.

"It's getting a bit windy. We still have plenty of time, so how about we reinforce it with another layer?"

"OK".

Slime isn't afraid of wind and rain, but with a Force 14 gale, I'm not sure if it will be blown away.

Everyone continued working for several hours, further reinforcing the main base of this home.

Finally, Ye Qian returned to her little wooden house with peace of mind.

"Oh no, I'm soaked."

He squatted down and wrung out the white silk, and water immediately dripped down in a splattering sound.

"Hmm, I feel so tempted every time I see myself like this," she thought to herself.

Although her clothes weren't see-through or anything, the image of a beautiful girl in the rain really gave off a strange feeling.

"Hehe, so Ye Qian knows she's super alluring too."

Lan Xinyu happily sat down next to her, her eyes darting up and down Ye Qian.

What do you want to do?

Ye Qian looked at her warily, while protecting her chest.

"Of course I admire it, it's super cute, okay?"

Whew~

A flame suddenly passed between the two of them.

Amia appeared at lightning speed and lay down in Ye Qian's arms, happily rubbing against her chest.

"Mommy, drink milk."

After saying that, it lunged at that spot.

"What the hell are you talking about, drinking milk?!"

Thump!

Ye Qian tapped him on the head with a flick of her wrist.

"Where would I get milk from?"

"Hahaha." Lan Xinyu burst into laughter on the spot. "That's right, how can a mother not give her daughter milk? That's irresponsible, irresponsible."

"Screw you."

Ye Qian blushed and glared at her.

This little thing, does it really think of me as its mother dragon?

However, Amia was certain that she had given birth to her.

Perhaps this guy knows he's a dragon, but is just pretending not to.

"Don't come any closer, damn it!!!" Seeing the guy's head sticking out again, Ye Qian pushed it away forcefully and said speechlessly, "I didn't."

"Waaah~~~" Amia showed a pitiful yet longing expression.

"Emmm... If you keep doing this, I'll sell you."

Amia: "..."

"How about this, Lan Xinyu, why don't you get her some? Yes, Lan Xinyu has some."

"What?" Lan Xinyu was stunned for a moment, then quickly covered her chest. "Screw it, I have one. This thing only appears after giving birth, right? You'd better figure out how to deal with it yourself."

After saying that, the guy shamelessly turned around and ran away.

"I give up."

Ye Qian glanced at little Amia and tapped her on the head. "Stop thinking unrealistically and eat your meat obediently."

He set up a barbecue grill on the spot, ran to the storage room next door to get a piece of meat, started skewering it, and prepared to grill it.

As soon as the spices were sprinkled, a rich aroma immediately filled the air.

"Eat."

So the little girl Long ate meat skewers with Ye Qian.

A few dozen meters away, in another house, Chen Ning was munching on a piece of fruit, saw this scene and felt inexplicably warm.

Seemingly remembering something, he sighed, turned and went into the house.

That evening, the wind gradually picked up.

The storm is still some time away, but the rain has already been coming in bursts, on and off.

One minute the sky is clear, the next it's overcast.

To save time, the group took the Skeleton to hunt again in the east and west directions, and then bought salt online to marinate some of the Purification meat.

Everyone also bought some dried meat from the mall, mainly because these things can be stored for a long time and can prevent accidents.

After Ye Qian led the team back, she began to pick up a hoe and start cultivating the ground.

With increased power and efficiency, these daily activities often yield interesting little surprises.

During this time, Ye Qian had actually acquired quite a few items, such as plant seeds or blueprints for some practical tools. Although their value wasn't particularly high, they had improved everyone's living conditions compared to before.

They were busy until 9 p. m., when the rain got quite heavy and showed no signs of letting up, so everyone went back into the cabin.

Several layers of thick, reinforced door panels were installed, and the windows were sealed. Ye Qian and Loli Long then lay down inside with peace of mind.

Seeing Ye Qian shivering, the little one immediately hugged her. "Mommy, let me warm you up."

Call!

A flame continued to be emitted upwards.

"Won't this consume oxygen? But it doesn't matter, thankfully there are small ventilation openings."

Ye Qian hugged the little one and happily kissed her cheek.

"Oh my god, I'm so happy."

Although she wasn't used to it at first, suddenly having a dragon daughter out of nowhere, Ye Qian suddenly felt that being a mother wasn't so bad... Ugh, she didn't want to be a mother. To be precise, it was nice to have an obedient daughter who recognized her as her mother.

Holding the warm Amia close, Ye Qian closed her eyes, relying entirely on her for warmth.

In the middle of the night, the wind outside gradually picked up.

By the next morning, the wind had become quite strong.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Ye Qian sat up in confusion, opened the door, and saw Lan Xinyu running in carrying a wolf-skin blanket.

"Ah... you guys are hugging each other. I'll stay with you guys today, it's too scary, and I'm so cold."

Lan Xinyu's eyes lit up when she saw the two little ones hugging each other tightly.

Ye Qian was silent for a moment, then sighed, "Fine, but could you close the door? The rain is blowing in."

The cabins are very small, only 4 square meters. They don't even have beds, just a grill and food that's been prepared beforehand. It's really just a place where you can lie down as many people as you want.

Lan Xinyu quickly closed and reinforced the door, then moved to the side.

Have you had breakfast? Have you brushed your teeth?

"The thing is over there." Ye Qian gestured with her chin. "See that round plug next to the wall? You can throw the thing out from there. That's where I put the trash pit. As long as the thing doesn't get blown away."

"Okay, okay."

Ye Qian brushed her teeth too.

The toothpaste is all natural, seemingly extracted from some very fragrant plant, and the seller is also a collector.

In any case, living conditions in this world are difficult to improve on one's own; one must buy and sell from the marketplace. Some players have even infiltrated the local inhabitants, using local products, and it's unclear how they are faring.

In theory, it's not impossible for you to marry an indigenous person, provided that the other person can tolerate your occasional disappearances.

Of course, there is also an item on the market that can extend the duration of time spent in the Main World.

After a period of time, many people choose to take turns guarding the Main World in order to prevent their territory from being destroyed by unknown forces.

However, none of this mattered to Ye Qian.

She can even sneak in and out of here.

"Are you going out during the day?" Lan Xinyu asked casually after brushing her teeth and starting to grill the meat.

Ye Qian felt the wind outside and said uncertainly, "It feels okay. I don't think the storm during the day will be too big. Even a fast-moving typhoon wouldn't suddenly arrive here."

"Phew, okay, but isn't this too tiring and dangerous?" Lan Xinyu scratched her head helplessly.

Ye Qian shrugged.

There's no other way; in order to develop faster, enduring this hardship will definitely bring benefits.

Moreover, it wasn't too bad for her. Ye Qian liked this kind of windy and rainy weather. She would get excited when a typhoon came, as long as it wasn't the kind of howling and wailing.

She prefers winds of force no more than level 12, and also avoids heavy rain. This kind of wind generally doesn't cause much damage, but it still allows people to experience the atmosphere.

But it's clear that the storm we're facing now is unlikely to be so friendly.

"Let's go, I feel like I can still make a good effort this morning."

Lan Xinyu glanced at the scene and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where's Chen Ning?" Ye Qian glanced at her.

"That guy's already up. He's a real man, starting work early in the morning against the wind," Lan Xinyu remarked.

"So we've got a great teammate, right?"

Ye Qian ate some more meat, then clapped her hands and prepared to go out.

As soon as the wooden door opened, a gust of wind blew in, and her long hair flew wildly in the wind and rain.

"I'll go."

Ye Qian closed the door, opened the shop, and spent 10 Copper Coin to buy herself a transparent mask, and also bought one for Lan Xinyu.

"That's better."

"Okay, I'll go first, follow behind me."

Lan Xinyu put it on, then opened the door and went out first.

Ye Qian swallowed hard and followed them out.

After closing the door against the wind, the two girls whistled, and more than a dozen Skeleton followed.

"Let's go east this time. We explored 2 kilometers there yesterday, and there were quite a lot of monsters."

"OK."

Chen Ning, who was counting the slimes, glanced over and asked, "Tan, why are you guys out here? Shouldn't you stay indoors today?"

"To kill monsters and level up," Lan Xinyu replied.

"Okay, there are a lot more slimes today, but I've noticed a problem."

"What's the problem?"

"The higher the level of the slime, the slower its reproduction rate. In other words, if you want the number to increase rapidly, low-level slimes are theoretically the best. However, if it is a high-level slime, the individual that splits out is generally only one level lower than the parent slime, so the benefits of high-level slimes are obviously greater."

Is that so?

In fact, Ye Qian also knew that if they only ate soil, they probably wouldn't be able to reproduce even once every few days.

The current number of slimes has reached an astonishing 42.

Ye Qian didn't intend to synthesize it.

She glanced at the wooden hut built next to the farm and thought that if the slime was kept inside, it probably wouldn't be blown away by the wind.
