MTL - Another World Sandbox Gamer-Chapter 7 Prepare supplies
On a quiet morning, the pool is full of animals, trying to get hydrated.
"Boom!" The sound of falling trees in the distance made them look up and be alert, although this movement has been heard countless times.
When the sound disappeared, they continued to drink with their heads down.
On the other side, Ren was holding a wooden axe and put the fallen logs, long branches, twigs, and sea buckthorn fruits into the virtual backpack.
The virtual backpack has been filled with resources. A total of 65 sea buckthorn trees were cut down, and nearly 200 logs, more than 500 long branches, more than 800 small branches, and more than 300 sea buckthorn fruits were obtained.
Originally, there were sea buckthorn trees near the temporary residence, but now it is empty.
If it wasn't for the virtual backpack's resource storage reaching 90%, Ren would not stop cutting easily. Anyway, the wooden axe can be used indefinitely, and there is no shortage of wood.
The remaining 10% of the space should be reserved for other materials.
The capacity of the basic backpack is actually quite large. A normal player will not collect enough logs to build several cabins in one go. He is used to it.
The logs in this backpack are enough for him to make countless wooden tools and build a number of temporary cabins on the way out of the desert, although he still prefers to dig holes in the ground.
The long branches and twigs allow him to make wooden spears and wooden arrows indefinitely. Even if he hasn't left the desert for a month, more than three hundred sea buckthorn fruits are enough for him to persist for a long time.
There are enough materials to make a campfire for heating and cooking on the road, and the next thing to consider is more food and water.
He wants to hunt animals near the waterhole for their meat and fur.
While getting food, hides can be crafted into more kettles.
By the way, by hunting animals to upgrade, slightly increase the strength, increase the upper limit of the backpack, and make yourself carry more resources.
Take as much food as possible from this oasis until the head wound fully heals.
There are more than 100 sea buckthorn seeds in the backpack. Go back to the entrance of the cave and look around. It is too empty and there is no concealment. If a dangerous animal approaches, you will find yourself instantly.
Although these more than 100 sea buckthorn seeds only occupy one grid, it is good to be able to spare them.
Simply plant them near the burrow and surround them directly.
Do what you think of, immediately plant all the sea buckthorn seeds in the backpack very regularly around the hole, forming a standard huge circle.
There is a one-meter-wide path from the exit of the cave to the water pool. There is enough space between each tree species, so that they can be adjacent to each other when they grow large enough to form a natural barrier.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder patients will feel particularly comfortable seeing this layout, because the front and rear are symmetrical.
After planting, each small soil bag shows a need for watering.
Ren used the clean water stored in the crocodile-skin kettle for watering. Although he could directly take out the turbid water from the pool, he didn't have any extra containers. Anyway, after running out, he could fetch water and cook again, which was not troublesome.
After all the watering, sea buckthorn seedlings emerged from more than a hundred small soil bags. As long as Ren's eyes fell on these seedlings, he could see their growth time.
It only takes 24 hours for a seedling to grow into a sea buckthorn tree, because all the plants that Ren planted are calculated according to game time, not reality.
In reality, it takes at least three to five years for a sea buckthorn tree to grow and bear fruit.
Moreover, these sea buckthorn seedlings can be fertilized to reduce the time required for growth.
However, in a desert where resources are scarce, even if Ren has enough materials to make a fertilizer box, he will not waste precious food and time to make fertilizer.
24 hours is already fast!
It doesn't mean that the seedlings turned into big trees during this period of time. In fact, the saplings can grow very high within a few hours and play a certain protective role.
Ren was not in a hurry to hunt. Before setting off, he practiced archery in the nearby open space.
He placed a log vertically in the open space as an arrow target, and drew the bow and arrow at a distance, shooting again and again.
After all, I had never played bow and arrow before, so I was very unfamiliar with it.
It was good luck to shoot the crocodile in front, and it was almost close to the face, so it almost missed.
He had to be familiar with the wooden bow in his hand and the arc of the wooden arrow to make sure that he was accurate enough when shooting the arrow.
After practicing for nearly an hour, it is difficult for the arrows shot at the beginning to hit the log. When you are familiar with the feel of the wooden bow and have a sufficient understanding of the flight path of the wooden arrow, the probability of hitting the log will increase. Almost ten arrows can hit six arrows.
I think it's almost the same. Next, you can continue to practice during the hunting process to improve the accuracy.
So he set off with a wooden spear and bow and arrow, and quietly arrived near the water pool.
After the two big crocodiles in the water pool were killed, the animals were not threatened, and the number of people who came to drink water surged. No matter their size, it was extraordinarily lively.
Ren tried to be careful as he approached the pool slowly. He observed the nearest group of rabbits. He felt that it was still a little far away, and tried to move forward.
Who would have guessed that the group of rabbits by the pool would run away when they heard the movement, and soon disappeared.
It seems that these animals are very vigilant and extremely difficult to approach.
He tried to get close to gerbils and a bird called blue-feathered bird, but also ran away before he could get into range.
This made Ren feel a headache. The basic wooden bow has a limited range, and the accuracy and power of exceeding the distance will be reduced, and the probability of successful hunting will decrease.
Animals are so alert, UU reading www. uukanshu. com doesn't let himself into the range of the wooden bow at all, which is quite troublesome.
Glancing at the animals that all ran across the pool, he could only crouch on the spot and think carefully.
After much deliberation, there is only one way.
Create a bunker, hide in it so that animals can't see themselves, and when they get close to the bunker, they can sneak attack from it!
Creating a bunker is very simple. At a higher point near the water pool, use sandstone to directly enclose a three-by-three matchbox, facing the water pool, and place one less block in the middle as a window and a shooting port.
The one-meter-high sandstone was enough for Ren to hide himself.
Put more sea buckthorn branches around the bunker to increase concealment.
After the completion, Ren sat in the bunker and tried not to make any noise or even observe with a probe.
Even if you are lying in the bunker, you can confirm with the green animal icon on the virtual map and control their movement range at any time.
Hunting requires patience. Anyway, the bunker can block the sun's exposure to Ren, and there is enough water, so there is no need to worry.
After lying down for about forty minutes, finally an animal came to the vicinity, vigilantly approaching the water source.
The bunker is not far from the water source, and the wind direction is good, so the animals won't smell him.
Quietly squatting down to probe, he saw a group of rabbits drinking water.
The distance was even closer, and Ren was very sure. He quickly drew his bow and arrow, and aimed quietly from the window.
"Hey!" The arrow shot swiftly, instantly piercing a rabbit, killing him on the spot.
The other rabbits were frightened and fled, and soon disappeared.
[System] If you kill a rabbit, you will get 10 experience points!
"Yes!" Ren immediately opened the door and rushed out of the bunker, took out the stone knife and collected the rabbit corpse on the spot.
