My barrage in the wild can be withdrawn

Chapter 180 Stealing Water to Drink (asking for subscription, asking for monthly pass)
Having owned the system for so long, Zhou Chen is already very familiar with the process of drawing cards.

Currently.

These are the only types of special effect lights that Zhou Chen saw.

The white light is the item clue card;
The green light is the resource information card;
The red light is the time-limited task card;
And golden light is a rare card.

A red light just appeared.

Obviously, the time-limited task is coming.

After the red light dissipated, as Zhou Chen expected, this was indeed a time-limited mission card.

After the time-limited task card is drawn, the task will automatically take effect.

Without hesitation, he clicked on the card to view the task.

[Mission introduction: It has a gorgeous appearance and a cunning heart. 5.3 kilometers east of here, there is a dying red fox. If you save the red fox, the host can get an intermediate skill experience card. 】

【Countdown: 4:59:58...】

red fox?

Seeing this introduction, Zhou Chen was slightly taken aback.

Are there foxes in the Taklimakan Desert?
Think for a moment.

Zhou Chen felt that it was not impossible.

Foxes have a wide range of activities, and under normal circumstances, they will not go deep into the desert hinterland.

However, it is spring now. In this season, everything in the Taklimakan Desert is revived, and jerboas and gerbils are very active.

Foxes feed on rats, and it is not out of the question to come here to hunt.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to continue on his way.

Although, Zhou Chen is not very interested in the red fox.

But he is still very interested in the reward after completing the task.

I glanced at the time, it was now 11 o'clock.

It is not easy to walk 5 kilometers in 5.3 hours in the desert.

Zhou Chen has a good physique and amazing endurance.

It's not difficult for him to rush, but it's just that traveling all the time will definitely consume more resources than walking with a plan.

However, in order to complete the task, Zhou Chen will still do his best.

At noon, it was hot.

Even though it is early spring.

But under the scorching sun, the temperature of the sand has risen to 30°C.

In this environment, the consumption of fresh water has also accelerated a lot.

It only took one morning.

More than half of the water in the military lunch box went down.

We walked under the sun for more than three hours.

Zhou Chen came to the position marked by the time-limited mission.

Looking around, he didn't find any foxes.

Raising the drone, he wants to use the machine to observe in a large area.

I didn't see the fox, but a dead tree in front of me attracted Zhou Chen's attention.

Retracting the drone, Zhou Chen walked towards the dead tree.

Coming to him, he took off his skydiving helmet.

Zhou Chen had been wearing this helmet all the time when the wind and sand were too strong.

It's less windy now.

He doesn't have to keep wearing the helmet anymore.

After putting on the sun hat again, Zhou Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew~~ That helmet is really stuffy, this hat is still suitable."

After saying something to himself, his eyes moved to the dead tree beside him.

Observed carefully for a while.

He found that although the tree was dead, it was still as tall and straight as before.

"This is a Populus euphratica tree. Everyone must have seen it when we were in Hotan River."

After cutting the live footage to the camcorder, he spoke slowly.

"Pulphus euphratica is a tree species under arid continental climate conditions. It is light-loving, heat-resistant, atmospheric drought-resistant, saline-alkali-resistant, and wind-sand-resistant. However, they will not grow well in humid and hot climate conditions and clay-heavy soil."

"Pullar euphratica has the quality of perseverance. Generally, wherever the desert river flows, Populus euphratica will follow."

"Desert rivers change frequently, so Populus euphratica leaves traces of where it once stopped everywhere in the desert."

"Pulphus euphratica has a huge root system, and the groundwater level is not lower than 4 meters, so Populus euphratica can live comfortably; when the water level drops to 6-9 meters, Populus euphratica becomes sluggish; when the water level drops further, Populus euphratica becomes weak will die."

Touching the tall dead tree beside him, Zhou Chen added, "Obviously, the desert under my feet once had an underground river, but unfortunately, the river water has now been transferred."

Looking up at Populus euphratica, Zhou Chen said with emotion: "In fact, I admire this tree very much. Populus euphratica can grow to a height of more than 30 meters in an extremely hot and dry environment. When the tree starts to age, it will gradually break off the top of the tree. Branches and trunks, finally reduced to a height of three or four meters, are still flourishing, until they die of old age and wither, they still stand upright."

"People praise Populus euphratica as 'a Populus euphratica that lives for 1000 years, dies for 1000 years, falls for 1000 years, 3000 years for Populus euphratica, and a history of [-] million years.'"

"Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, its unyielding quality is indeed worthy of our praise."

Glancing at the time, there are still 16 minutes before the time-limited task fails.

He looked around again, except for the yellow sand, he still didn't see any living things.

With so many sand dunes in front of him, if the opponent made a hole, even if Zhou Chen was given another day, he probably wouldn't be able to find it.

Call ~
Fail or fail...

Although Zhou Chen was unwilling, he really didn't have the energy to look for it at the moment.

Taking out the military lunch box, he took another big sip.

After rushing for several hours, Zhou Chen's physical energy was exhausted, and half of his water storage was used up.

What a loss this time.

Wiping his mouth, Zhou Chen sighed again.

Although there is no penalty for failing a time-limited mission.

But since he owned the system, he hasn't failed yet.

He once thought that even if he failed one day, he would fail on an extremely difficult task.

But he never expected that he failed because he couldn't find the task object.

To be honest, Zhou Chen felt a little aggrieved by such a failure.

But it is.

Even if he doesn't want to, he can't change the fact.

Time passed by minute by minute.

At this moment, there are less than 2 minutes before the task fails.

blah blah blah blah
When Zhou Chen was frustrated with the failure of the mission, he heard a licking sound coming from his side.

Turning his head slightly, he found a fox hiding in a tree hole, sticking out its small head and secretly licking the remaining water droplets in the military lunch box.

Seeing the other party's appearance, Zhou Chen was overjoyed.

There is half a minute left.

Zhou Chen didn't have time to think about it, he turned on the military kettle and poured some water into the lunch box.

Seeing that there is water, the little fox is not afraid of people, and drinks more happily.

blah blah blah blah
The sound of drinking water continued.

After a while, the system's notification sound appeared.

[Ding, the time-limited task has been completed, and the intermediate skill experience card has been successfully issued, please check the host by yourself. 】

Opening the system backpack, he found that there was indeed an additional intermediate skill experience card inside.

blah blah blah blah
The little fox is still drinking water.

The appearance of the fox shocked the fans in the live broadcast room.

But what is even more shocking is.

The little fox hadn't had a few sips before Zhou Chen took the lunch box away...
