In short, for things like gravel, the more the better in the early stage. You can never have too much. Even if you lose yourself, you must leave a space in the backpack for gravel.
But it was a pity that the three consecutive pieces of gravel seemed to have consumed all Su You's luck. No matter how she rummaged for the next minute, all she could find were leaves and branches on the ground.
Although, this was expected, and Su You didn't feel sorry at all.
But when Su You was rummaging through the gravel, although she didn't find the gravel, she found a trace that made her feel very nervous and worried...
"This is..." What appeared in Su You's sight was a beast's paw print that was as big as Su You's two palms. It was not difficult to guess from this size alone that it was a large beast.
However, Su You could also tell from the clarity of the claw marks that the beast had left here for some time, because the traces of the claw marks were no longer very obvious.
In addition, there are some tiny marks next to the large paw prints that also prove this.
These tiny traces are left by small beasts, and the sense of smell of beasts is very sensitive. If the owner of this large paw print has just left, the smell left by it will definitely make other small beasts afraid to approach, let alone return it. It left traces on the side.
So these marks are enough to prove that the owner of the big paw print has been gone for a while... long enough for the scent left by this large beast to slowly dissipate.
But even if the beast didn't leave, Su You didn't need to be particularly afraid, because she also had a blessing from the execution system, which could reduce any creature's desire to attack her.
In other words, as long as she doesn't actively provoke wild beasts, it's basically absolutely safe.
"I hope you don't run into it..." Although it can be guaranteed to be safe, it is best not to run into it if possible, otherwise it may affect her actions.
After analyzing the situation, Su You calmed down and continued what she had just unfinished.
She first took out two pieces of wood from her backpack, and then threw them into the workbench together with the freshly baked stone.
[Should you make a stone axe*1 from wood*2 and stone*1? 】
[Under production: Ax, estimated time: 120 seconds]
…
After using the two minutes of making the ax to collect nearby branches, Su You stopped what he was doing, and then took out his first stone ax from the workbench.
【Stone axe】
Category: Tools
Quality: white
Attack: +1 (Attack Damage: 5)
Durability: 100/100
Introduction: A normal ax, suitable for chopping trees, and can also cause a certain degree of damage when used as a weapon.
…
In this tool panel introduction, 'Attack: +1' refers to the additional attack value added when the tool is used to collect resources.
For example, if the 'blood volume' of a tree is 10 points, then you need to chop it ten times with a stone axe, causing 1 point of damage each time. After the 'blood volume' of the tree is cleared, it will become collectible. supplies.
Later in the game, better axes can be crafted from better ore materials.
For example, a copper ax made from copper ore has an attribute of 'Attack: +2', which means that a tree with a blood volume of 10 only needs to be chopped down five times with a copper ax.
Although the attack of the copper ax only increased a little, it directly shortened the workload by half and greatly increased the efficiency of collecting materials. This is also the advantage of the mining area resource points mentioned before.
As for the other value of 'Attack Damage: 5', it refers to the damage it can cause when used as a weapon.
Su You weighed the ax and came to a round tree. Then he found a favorable position and a suitable angle, and used the ax to chop hard at the round tree. However, when the ax went down, the original blood volume was '10'. 'The round tree's health remains unchanged.
In the eyes of others, Su You looked very powerful at that moment, but in fact it was just a loud thunder and a small drop of rain. When the ax went down, it didn't even break the bark of the tree... Oh, that's an exaggeration, the bark of the tree was still broken. Small pieces even fell to the ground.
But Su You obviously didn't care about this, or in other words, her purpose just now was not to chop down the tree.
As if she had found a familiar feeling, Su You's chopping speed became faster and her movements became more skillful. With three strokes, five divided by two, she successfully stripped off the clothes (bark) of the round tree.
Looking at the round tree with no bark, Suyou changed the angle of the ax again.
'Bang——'
As a dull sound sounded, this time, the battered log's health finally reached 9/10.
After repeated chopping nine times, Suyou finished chopping the tree, and then began to collect the fruits of his labor.
[Obtain wood*2]
[Obtain bark*3]
[Get broken bark*13]
Let's first explain her behavior of peeling off the bark first and then cutting down the tree - this is not because she has any special interests, but because the amount of bark dropped by cutting down the tree is random, and the random value here includes '0'.
As long as it is related to luck, I can only say that everyone understands it, and Su You will not mess with it if he can.
But manual peeling is different. Although the number of bark finally obtained is also random, the lowest value is '1', not '0'.
Bark doesn't have many functions in the entire game, but the few functions it has are very important.
For example, now, Suyou needs tree bark because it is a material used to upgrade the backpack in the early stage.
Suyou's current backpack is level 0. Upgrading to level 1 requires 'string*5, bark*10'. After upgrading, the number of grids in the backpack will reach ten grids.
The doubled number of grids not only means that more things can be stored, but also means that Suyou can develop faster.
Because she no longer has to worry about what to put in, what to throw away, and how much to collect so as not to occupy her backpack... For a person who suffers from hamster disease (who likes to collect things), letting her throw away something is simply more painful than killing her.
Su You was quite lucky this time. She actually got three pieces of bark from one tree, which meant that she could upgrade her backpack by cutting down at most seven more trees.
Because her backpack is now full (rope*10, gravel*2, wood*5, red berries*50, branches*13), neither bark nor broken bark can fit into the backpack, so She first put together the branches she had just collected*13 and the broken bark*13 she had peeled off, and then put the bark into her backpack.
In the following time, Suyou continued to peel off the skin and cut down the tree.
Because of her past gaming experience, Su You knew that the round tree was the tree that dropped the most bark when peeled manually, as shown by effective data testing.
