The atmosphere of the invitation to the dinner was wrong, but Wang Qi was not in a bad mood.
He could see that the old lady was one of the first survivors. Her mentality was completely different from the others. Her optimism was not like that of people who grew up in the wasteland.
For reference, the two batches of the dozen or so people who stole Xiaoqiang's photos and the rest of the old lady's family were the same.
Is the optimism and reminiscence in his expression because of him? Wang Qi felt that apart from his high attributes and language barrier, there seemed to be nothing special about him. Could it be that it’s been a long time since I’ve seen a Tuzao and I’m moved by the scene? There are blacksmiths among the survivors, and there should be some who can make earthen stoves.
There is no need to delve into the reason. The old lady is most likely one of the first survivors and has pre-disaster information. This is very good news.
In the past, I had to collect computers to generate electricity myself, but the information I obtained was still fragmentary. From now on, if you have a better relationship with your neighbors, ask them directly. Don't trade meat for information.
It's just that the old lady's physical condition is really not good. There are doubts about whether she can survive the winter. Should we find an opportunity to strengthen her body as soon as possible?
The old lady seems to be quite kind, and there won’t be much hindrance if she touches her a few times before trying to touch her again. Judging from the situation of the team, even if the old lady wants to eat more, others will not deny it.
Just do it this way, use the old lady as a breakthrough point to make the other party accept your identity as a magic stick.
While he was gathering his thoughts here, Li Xiang suddenly ran from the warning point and said something to pull him away.
She was in such a hurry that she thought there was another thief, so Wang Qi followed her and saw Aurora.
This is not the first time I have seen the aurora in this world, but the brightness is the highest today, and the previous times I saw it were very faint.
Aurora is a phenomenon in which cosmic rays create plasma luminous bodies in weak areas of the atmosphere. At this time, the ambient radiation value will increase. Wang Qi didn't know whether [Resistance] could block the damage caused by radiation, but the amount of radiation from this thing for one day was only the amount of an X-ray, so there was no need to care too much.
The illumination of the aurora on the surface of the earth is very low. It just looks very bright. It is completely incomparable with the moonlight and cannot provide travel assistance for survivors.
In turn, Li Xiang was invited, and the two of them went to the rooftop to watch the aurora.
The aurora that can be seen from the rooftop can be roughly divided into four main parts, unlike streamers, sinking lights or flames. The four intermittent arcs show a concentric circle trend. If the center of the circle is positioned for them, it will be in the southwest, which is the direction where abnormal conditions occur every month.
Maybe he was overthinking and felt a little weird.
Li Xiang looked very happy, even holding his hand with both hands, observing with a cat-like expression.
One thing he noticed when he looked at her was that the aurora he saw was different from what Li wanted to see!
Most of the auroras reflected in Li Xiang's eyes were blue, but when Wang Qi carefully distinguished them, two of them were purple. If he looked directly, there was an extra layer of bright purple light in the outer circle of the picture in Li Xiang's eyes. membrane.
What is the use of UV enhancement in [Visual Differentiation]...?
As time went by, the auroras in the sky expanded and became brighter. When my eyes turned away, I found a bright purple light on a building in the south.
Wang Qi stooped slightly, pointed there and asked Li Xiang: "Can you see what's going on there?"
Li Xiang searched for a while in the direction he was pointing, and then said uncertainly: "Human?"
"Human?" Wang Qi was a little confused. What he saw was a ball of light, with no human form!
After looking at it carefully for a while, I felt that it was beginning to take on a human form again...I wonder if it was a psychological effect.
Is there any way to actively change the visual mode?
One kilometer south of the base, "people" stand on the roof of a building at night. Do they also watch the aurora?
"Gone!" Li Xiang suddenly said, waking up Wang Qi who was stunned.
The bright purple light that was there a few seconds ago suddenly disappeared, as if it had never existed.
What exactly is that?
Some people use ultraviolet lamps to sterilize themselves... It's a bit outrageous. Why do they need to illuminate themselves outdoors? Can the battery be used outdoors at this temperature?
Some mysterious phenomenon?
The unknown always makes people feel insecure, and Wang Qi, whose physique is completely different from ordinary people, is no exception.
Lacking the ability to survive in the wild, he couldn't just abandon the base and run away. At least that thing didn't threaten safety yet, so he could only write it down and investigate it later.
Before that, add a wave of attributes.
When I got up the next day, I ordered resistance for both Li Xiang and myself.
Wang Qi's resistance is the [Mysterious Resistance] in the overall enhancement, which should be useful for existences that don't look like humans or normal monsters. Li Xiang's resistance is pure [resistance]. It has been observed that it may include low temperature resistance, and may also include other types of adaptability to high temperature, but it is difficult to confirm due to the lack of observation conditions and control groups.
Adding once is simply not enough. Things have to be done slowly. There are still many visible things to do every day.
With another team in the base, there is no need to worry about being invaded by outsiders when no one is at home, so Wang Qi decided to take Li Xiang around the neighborhood starting from today, picking up some garbage and moving bricks along the way.
Maybe it was because Li Xiang had added some luck points, but he was very lucky today. The first one he broke into found brand new leather snow hiking boots that fit Wang Qi's size under the wardrobe.
After winter, Wang Qi mainly relies on basketball shoes and snow boots for outdoor activities. When the snow is shallow, basketball shoes can handle it, but when the snow is deep, it is not so good and he has to rely on snow boots.
However, there is nothing special about his snow boots. They are boots with relatively good waterproof performance and are not made of real leather.
Snow hiking boots are specialized tools with spikes under the forefoot for moving on ice.
What’s even more surprising is the genuine leather.
Because leather and other natural fabrics are more susceptible to insect gnawing than chemical fibers, as long as the leather shoes have been worn, there is basically no chance of escaping damage and brittleness if left unattended for many years. Over the decades of survivor activities, no new, unopened shoes have ever been found near the base.
Under the multiple protections of the wardrobe, cardboard boxes, foam paper, and padding, the surface coating of this pair of shoes has a small amount of wrinkles, but the genuine leather does not specifically rely on the coating to be waterproof, as long as the main body is intact, it will work.
Snow hiking boots are not suitable for walking on hard ground indoors and are not helpful for hunting, but Wang Qi needs them very much because he can't get the remaining two parts of the big oak tree in the corner park back to the base. The most important factor is the shoes. There is not enough grip in the snow, and the appearance of this thing can solve a big problem.
Not even willing to wait any longer, he took Li directly to haul the wood.
Then... I gave up again because the sled was damaged while lifting the main branch onto the sled!
Fortunately, the only good thing was the upper beam structure, and the sled board was not broken, otherwise the small oak trunk would not be preserved and would have to be used to repair the sled.
Reluctantly, the two of them each pulled a sled board and a few logs attached to it home, leaving Li Xiang to do his homework and he was responsible for repairing it.
There is a less obvious bulge under one of the sleds, which is a typical deformation caused by the growth of living cells in trees. It is not serious, but if it continues to be exposed to snow water, it may cause cracks.
Take it to the kitchen to dry. The temperature should not be too high. Just place it standing about one meter next to the stove.
As soon as he entered the kitchen, he found that the old lady and the brunette were already there.
