Originally, I was still living in a small house, but I was thinking that I could grit my teeth and add some money to move to a better location or buy a bigger house. As for the start of school for students, food at home and the upcoming winter. With all the preparations, this one-time income freed them from worries.
With some of the high income in the account, you would think that this group of people would no longer be in a hurry to show up, or that they would not seem so anxious. But what he didn't expect was that he had just planned to take a few days' rest to recover his exhausted mental strength.
These team members who had nowhere to go actually came to his door and looked at him enthusiastically, and asked him when he would go out again. This made Mai Fan feel very surprised, and he expressed a certain dissatisfaction with their actions. untie.
The group of people laughed when they saw Mai Fan's reaction. They saw that Mai Fan really belonged to a knowledge blank area: "Look, he has not experienced the real severe cold, or you really did not need to experience the cold winter before. Our Ninth Base is stationed at the place closest to the dark area, do you know what this means?"
Mai Fan waited in confusion for his teammates to explain to him what this meant?
"This means that the closest they come to the dark place is during the dark tide, which is what they call winter, and they have to face the coldest areas."
What does the situation of dark tides and the coldest areas mean? It means that it is impossible to go out hunting at this time, or it is impossible to carry out normal activities.
For example, all the teams captured in these areas on their map can basically only move in gray or pure white areas. Even so, this area used to be relatively safe or there were many teams fighting for one. That won't happen, because at that time many beasts of pure darkness will come to their middle ground.
Not for any reason, but because during this cold winter period, their so-called buffer zones will also disappear and will become a paradise for all dark creatures. And this will greatly increase the difficulty of their hunting. There may even be a situation where a horde of beasts attacks the base.
This situation will last for about one month to two months. During these one to two months, only the base will be on alert at all times. This is true safety. If it is blocked by the wind, the materials in the entire base will be relatively small. nervous, because if the base is surrounded, the support from other bases or a large number of people will be missing to go hunting outside. And provide it to the base.
This is normal organization operation, the efficiency of the entire base and people's livelihood will be very difficult. During this period of time, a large number of people usually die, partly because they are poor and unable to survive, and eventually starve to death inside or outside the base. , another part of the people went out for a chance to fight for their lives and were seriously injured, and the last part sacrificed their small self to save the big self in resisting the beast tide, thus sacrificing themselves in the resistance.
In short, every so-called cold winter period is a very difficult existence for the people of the Ninth Base.
Mai Fan heard about this situation and then asked: "Do other bases also have this situation?"
The people responsible for answering shook their heads first, and then nodded.
"Other bases that have matured, or old bases that have been surrounded by other new bases will not encounter such a situation again.
The maps around them are basically familiar and automatically generated maps. With regular cleaning, no matter how dangerous it is, it will not be dangerous due to dampness or cold winter winds, which is when hunting is prohibited.
Only the new base has not yet been built, and it will probably take a long time after it is built. The reason for this cold winter period is that many maps have not been opened and these maps have not been completely cleaned. In addition, it was built on the edge of an undeveloped area.
For this kind of base, the place on the deep bank is equivalent to the border between black and white. Only after you have cleared this area can you withdraw to a fixed or affordable hunting area.
This black winter period will not completely pass until the surrounding land is matured. However, after our ninth base has cleaned up all the surrounding areas and become a mature base, then the tenth base will Base, the 11th base will be established outside our mature base, and then it will become those new bases, with a cold winter period, and we will completely get rid of this most dangerous and arduous time.
This is a common drawback among those of us trying to make a living in the new base. That is, all gains and dangers are directly proportional. You can get more situations, more wealth, and a life that can climb higher than in the old base, but at the same time, you also have to bear the responsibility. The risks that come with these gains So you get it? "
It turns out that this is what the cold winter period means, but for those new people, or people with no background, the new base seems to be more suitable for their growth.
Mai Fan also understood why this group of people were secretly watching him here, asking when he would go out again, because it was only about two or three months before the arrival of the Kuroshio period, and they wanted to do it within these two months. In about three months, I will go out at least three times. If possible, five sets will not be without problems.
In this way, they will accumulate a large amount of money and prepare the supplies they need in advance.
After all, if they prepare in advance, they won't attract too much attention. If they hoard bit by bit like hamsters, they won't become targeted or robbed when supplies are scarce. If the base is in danger of being overwhelmed, then at least it can hold on for a longer time after closing the door tightly, so as to obtain the final rescue, or directly carry it until the seventh cold wave passes. In this case, saving money is an indispensable thing for everyone.
They must seize every moment to stock up on supplies for the coming cold wave. At that time, the money may no longer be money, but just a handful of waste paper, so they must leave some time to continue to replenish it.
What they want, they frantically store everything they can eat, and turn the money they earn into something they can see, which makes them feel at ease. Everything takes time. In just two months or less than three months, they have to do a lot of things, make a lot of money, and store a lot of supplies. This requires them to do everything they can quickly. matter.
