After getting the information he wanted from others, Zhou Zhengping quickly turned back to Zhou Bai and the two of them, and briefly described the situation outside to them.
"The so-called novice protection period probably plays a role. The number of Warcraft is relatively small and the level is not high. However, I think that as time goes by and our level increases, more and more powerful Warcraft will appear." Zhou Bai analyzed Dao said, she had played enough games before the end, and she still had some understanding of the routines.
The early stage of the game is definitely a time for them to accumulate raw capital, especially supplies. They have a lot of gold coins, but they are very short of supplies.
"Well, I think so too, so our family must work hard to improve our level within this month." Zhou Zhengping agreed, "And you, Xiaobai, try to upgrade to level five first, and also try to increase your territory. level, it will be safer.”
"Then let's go shopping nearby later and get used to it first." Zhou Bai suggested, while looking at his lord panel, which showed various small red dots and small green dots nearby.
With such map instructions, they themselves have a bit more advantage than others.
"Okay." Zhou Zhengping and Ding Qiurou agreed. They had already been mentally prepared.
Just do what you say, and the family of three soon left the territory together.
Seeing this family of three menacingly holding iron axes, some of the resting people looked at each other, and then quickly got up and took action.
There are two weak women in this family who are so brave, how can they lag behind?
Some people who were short on money quickly followed suit. Wood and stone can at least be exchanged for a lot of copper coins! The purchase price of the territory is higher, and they can save up and sell it back to the territory. Judging from the price of the iron ax, they know that future weapons will not be too cheap. They should save more money. These are the capital for their future survival.
**
At this time, Zhou Bai and the others had arrived in the woods.
"Dad, Mom, I've seen it here. There are no monsters here for the time being. Let's try to collect wood first. If there are monsters that are alone, we can deal with them later. This will be more logical." Zhou Bai said cautiously.
"Yes." Zhou Zhengping and Ding Qiurou nodded, and then looked at Zhou Bai with a little bit of relief in their eyes.
After the apocalypse, their daughter changed from her previous laziness and became smart and courageous. If they really had an accident accidentally in the future, they would be much more relieved about her.
Then a family of three took iron axes and started chopping down trees.
When Zhou Bai brought down the ax, he only left a slash mark on the tree. He blinked and continued to chop. After a dozen chops, the tree in front of him flashed white and turned into wood.
[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained wood*5 and experience value +1. 】
After collecting it, she looked at her parents' situation. Her father was already cutting down the third tree, but her mother had not yet finished cutting down the first tree.
Obviously, the speed of collecting wood is related to a person's physical condition, so as the character level increases, the person's physical condition should be enhanced.
Thinking about it, Zhou Bai continued to cut down trees. Cutting down trees can also increase experience points! Although little, it is better than nothing.
After trying to gain experience points by cutting down trees, Zhou Zhengping gave up the last blow to Zhou Bai after figuring out how many cuts he could make to collect the wood.
Zhou Bai didn't refuse either.
In this way, the family collected diligently, changing positions along the way with the distribution of trees.
After a while, the family of three collected hundreds of units of wood, and Zhou Bai's level was also upgraded to level 3.
At this time, Zhou Bai received a new notification.
[Dear host, your residents have reached 100, and you have reached the upgrade condition 1. 】
Although he had already prepared that this condition would be achieved soon, Zhou Bai was still very happy when he received the news.
Now that 1 and 2 have been achieved, only 3 is left.
After looking around and finding that there was no one around, Zhou Bai looked at the little red dot not far from them on the map and whispered: "Dad, Mom, can we go kill World of Warcraft now? If I reach level 5, I will kill you tonight." I can advance to the territory.”
"Let's go!" Zhou Zhengping's eyes brightened slightly.
Soon, with Zhou Bai leading the way, they ran into small monsters such as magic rabbits and rats wandering nearby.
They discovered that they could see the level of the monsters that were lower than them, but they couldn't see the ones that were higher than them. But even so, they only needed a few more attacks to deal with the monsters. It can be seen that even if it is high, it is not much higher than them.
Similarly, the final blow to kill the World of Warcraft was given to Zhou Bai. Zhou Bai not only received a lot of experience points, but also received a lot of materials.
[Congratulations to the host, you killed the lv.3 demon rat and obtained rice*3, rat meat*3, rat skin*3, experience value*30, and copper coins*30. 】
[Congratulations to the host, you killed the lv.3 magic chicken and obtained rice*3, chicken*3, chicken feathers*3, experience value*30, and copper coins*30. 】
[...dropped home shoes. 】
[…Drop your top. 】
【……】
Gradually, other special items began to drop, and each time one appeared, the family of three became extremely excited.
At least they have tops and shoes that they can change between.
When supplies are scarce, everything is a treasure.
As soon as he spawned monsters like this, time flew by quickly, and Zhou Bai's level also reached level 5.
[Dear host, your level has reached lv.5 and you have reached the upgrade condition 3. 】
[Upgrade conditions 1, 2, and 3 have been met. Please return to the territory as soon as possible to advance. 】
After receiving the news that he could be promoted, and noticing that the sky was getting dark and the number of monsters was getting more and more dense, Zhou Bai quickly reminded his parents, and the family of three quickly returned to the territory.
**
Someone has already lit a huge fire in the open space of the territory. Most people are gathered around the fire. Some are trading supplies, some have set up a small fire and are roasting meat, and some have set up a fire. The small stone stove is simmering the soup gurglingly, and the aroma is filling the air, outlining a little bit of warmth.
Looking at this scene, Zhou Bai couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Human adaptability is indeed the strongest!
Then the three of them also moved closer to the fire. After all, as the sky darkened, the temperature seemed to drop a lot.
Beside the fire, Li Xingteng looked at the family of three returning so late, with surprise in his eyes, and said directly: "You can stay by the fire, but you need help providing some wood."
"No problem." Zhou Zhengping said, "How much do I need to pay?"
"Just 10 units per person will be enough. If you don't have enough, you can make up for it later."
Zhou Zhengping gave it directly without saying anything. Then after looking at the stone stove and pot made by others, he stepped forward to inquire about the transaction.
After he came back, he set up a small stove on the spot. "Someone poured out the stones and let us get some food."
"I'll do it." Ding Qiurou said hurriedly. One of her hobbies was cooking delicious food, so even if her family had money before the end, she would always cook for herself.
"Just have a good rest." Zhou Zhengping stepped forward to help and said to Zhou Bai.
Zhou Bai knew that he deliberately left her a free time to deal with territorial affairs.
Zhou Bai was not polite and directly found a seat next to the fire and sat down. Feeling the warmth coming from the fire, she felt a little relaxed. She had been outside just now, and she had been paying attention to the happenings nearby from time to time throughout the whole process. With my spirit and will tense, I can naturally feel at ease when I return to my territory.
After sitting down, she couldn't wait to open the territory's control panel.
[Territory: Hope Village]
[Level: Level 0 Village (Upgraded)]
【Population: 102/100】
[Tax rate: 10% (adjustable)
[Wealth: 80 gold, 12 silver, 33 bronze]
[Buildings: Lord's Mansion (level 1), fence, primary blacksmith shop, restaurant]
[Mall: exclusive to the territory, only provides materials]
[Current ranking: ***]
[Note: The territory can only be captured by the lord, and the novice protection period is 1 month]
As soon as the panel came out, there was a notice on the system that stood out.
[The territory has met the conditions for promotion. Do you want to promote the level 0 village to the level 1 village? 】
"no."
Although she wanted to upgrade, Zhou Bai still held back. Not long after they came back, the territory was promoted. People who were worried might be suspicious, so she wanted to wait and see.
After relaxing his mood, Zhou Bai focused on the building above.
Clicking on the Lord's Mansion, you can see at a glance that there are a lot more supplies in the Lord's Mansion, all of which were replaced by residents in the territory. There are hundreds of more units of wood and stone, as well as various furs, linens, etc. There was very little food, obviously everyone knew the importance of filling their stomachs.
When it comes to supplies, Zhou Bai doesn't want too much and continues to purchase them without any upper limit.
Anyway, she felt that these would come in handy sooner or later.
Then there is the primary blacksmith shop and restaurant.
The iron axes in the blacksmith shop have long been sold out. The first batch of 10 axes, and Zhou Bai later ordered 10 more, have been sold out. After estimating the number, Zhou Bai directly put 30 axes on the shelves.
As for the steamed buns, Zhou Bai directly ordered another 200.
After finishing it, Zhou Zhengping and Ding Qiurou also made delicious food here.
A bowl of barbecue, a bowl of broth, and a few hot steamed buns, the family of three enjoyed their dinner.
After eating and drinking, it was completely dark, and the blacksmith shop and restaurant were closed. Those who had previously thought about spending the night there were disappointed, and more and more people crowded around the fire.
After it became quiet, many people were staring at the fire in a daze, with no sleepiness on their faces.
Who can sleep in this situation?
"I wonder what the situation is like outside after dark?" Someone suddenly asked, and his voice was particularly prominent in the silent night.
Many people listened and looked outside. The darkness swallowed up the light. At first glance, they couldn't see anything clearly, which made people feel a little scared for no reason.
They were thinking about it too.
The appearance of the doomsday game was too sudden, and all they thought about this day was how to find a safe place.
The place was found, but other problems also appeared.
Is this territory safe? How long can you protect them? Are there other territories?
How are their relatives and friends? Still alive? Did they also find territory?
Will the outside environment become worse? Do they have to fight World of Warcraft if they want to survive?
…
There are so many things to consider!
Everyone's thoughts were confused and silent in their own world.
With his two most important family members by his side, Zhou Bai felt that the time was almost up and opened the lord panel, ready to upgrade his territory!
This time, facing the system notification, Zhou Bai chose "yes" without hesitation.
