Farming game: Survival for all [StarCraft]

031
While building city walls and managing prisoners, players also did not forget to complete the tasks in the manor. Before the city walls were built, the players' orange orchards, pig farms, and sheep farms were all built, and then each of them spent 30 blue crystals to upgrade (in comparison, the chicken farm was too cheap, only 10 blue crystals).

After the construction, two animals, piglets and sheep, appeared in the mall. Piglets are more expensive, 100 gold coins each, while sheep are 80 gold coins. And there is no discount for either.

However, after winning the first wave of the manor defense battle, the manor earned 10000 gold coins, which I didn't feel too bad about using to buy pigs and sheep.

At the beginning, you can only raise 12 pigs and sheep. After upgrading, you can buy another 6, and so on. Just like dairy cows and broiler chickens, now the player has 36.

和奶牛每半小时（副界）就能产1桶牛奶，一只鸡20分钟就下1个蛋不一样, 一只猪要一个小时（副界）才能有5斤五花肉, 一只羊要一个半小时才能脱1.2斤羊毛（然后1.2斤羊毛放进织布厂可以织出1团毛线, 1团毛线放进制衣厂可以制成一件大人穿的毛衣）。

However, compared to the wooly sheep, players are more interested in or a little bit horrified by the meat produced by pig farms.

Everyone was shocked to learn that the pigs in the farm were not raised to be slaughtered and eaten during the Chinese New Year, but that they could produce pork belly when the time came, just like in the game.

Isn't this unscientific?
After observation and analysis, the players found that this realistic approach is still very scientific. This pink pig looks the same as the domestic pigs before the apocalypse, but under the pig's belly, there is an extra round thing similar to a gestational sac (this can be called a meat sac). When the pig eats feed, most of the nutrients will be transported to the meat sac, and then the meat sac will grow into the shape of pork belly in a very short time. When the pork belly is mature, the automated pig farm will have a robotic arm with an iron plate to cut open the meat sac and take out the meat. After taking out the meat, the meat sac will shrink back and continue to grow.

During the meat cutting process, the pig will not resist at all and seems to feel no pain.

This breed of pig is really amazing, and no one knows how it was bred. It may be similar to the medical pigs they bred a long time ago. For this reason, players have to kill one and bring it back to the pig farming experts on Hope Star for research. Maybe they can figure out something.

The pig caused quite a stir among the experts of the Huameng. Could it be a mutant pigfish from the Hope Star? However, compared to tracing back to its origin, the experts were more interested in the pig itself. They took samples and analyzed it, and even blamed the player for killing the pig, as it was more valuable to study it alive! At the same time, they also wanted to get a few more.

However, since the mall will not be unlocked for sale without an upgrade, players are reluctant to kill more than one. Currently, one is enough for research, so they have to use them sparingly and wait until they are rich. Later, they can open accounts to allow experts to come up to the secondary world to study live pigs.

If it weren't for the lack of equipment, there would be no need to kill a pig and bring it back for research.

The secondary world can produce 5 kilograms of pork belly per hour, and the main world can produce 250 kilograms of meat per day, which is equivalent to the pure meat of a big pig. It is the best pork belly. Who would be willing to kill so much?

Anyway, it is impossible to kill one more pig now.

However, pig feed is different from cattle and sheep feed. It cannot be made directly from forage grass, nor can it be processed into feed like chicken feed. Sweet potato seedlings must be used as raw materials for the feed factory to produce it. Fortunately, sweet potato seeds are also unlocked on the farmland at level 5.

Sweet potato seeds are extremely popular among players. Before the end of the world, all kinds of sweet potatoes were always available in the Huameng market. No matter whether they were steamed, boiled, or baked, or made into soup or dried sweet potatoes, they were all loved by the people. Sweet potatoes can be said to be one of the most popular foods in the Huameng, and the yield per mu is high.

The sweet potato seeds provided by the system have an output of 1 jin per mu. It is not as good as the super sweet potato seeds cultivated by the Huameng, but it is also very good. Moreover, it can be harvested in one month. In addition to sweet potatoes that can be used as staple food, there are also sweet potato seedlings that can be used in feed factories to produce pig feed. It is too useful.

As for the orange orchard, just like the apple orchard, it costs 5 blue crystals to upgrade, and then each orange tree needs one month of main world time before you can pick fruit. An orange tree can produce 200 kilograms of fruit at a time, which is lower than apples. Apples mature in 20 days of main world time, and a tree can produce 300 kilograms of fruit at a time.

In addition, level 6 also unlocks a peanut seed and gives a task to repair an oil press. After almost a year, the manor finally unlocked oil crops. Chef Chen Nuonuo said that when cooking for Aurora, he no longer has to go to the woods to hunt for oil.

What a joy.

If the setting of Xia Ji was not different from that of other players, she could eat enough food in the manor and not have to eat on Hope Star. She would be heartbroken if she ate so much food and didn't use it.

After all, nearly a year has passed since the time travel, and I have deeply experienced the food shortage on Hope Star. Xia Ji has developed a stingy habit, and always feels that wasting food is a shameful and heartbreaking thing.

She also thought about not being special, but the team believed that Aurora could be close to the Huameng, but she couldn't be not special at all. It was necessary for her to eat in the manor, otherwise what if other smart players found out something?
Aurora's identity cannot be revealed. Once it is revealed, Xia Ji will be in danger and the manor game may not be as stable as it is now.

As for the announcement of the manor game, it can be put on the agenda slowly.

In fact, with the stable supply of low-priced nutrient solution every month, and the emergence of dairy cows and broiler-laying chickens, the social order in Huameng has visibly improved a lot. Cases of home robberies have become less and less frequent, and occasional accidents on fishing boats no longer cause widespread panic like before.

But this does not mean that the Huameng has really stabilized completely, because the rain of hope is still falling, and the rainy day syndrome has not been resolved. A stable supply of nutrient solution is effective for patients with mild symptoms and will not allow their emotions to continue to deteriorate, or deteriorate so quickly. However, for seriously ill patients, their mental state is actually not under their own control, and no one knows whether they will collapse in the next second.

Experts currently have no solution to this disease. The only solution they think can be found is to find a new planet where it doesn't rain, but this plan was rejected because the resources cannot support a second immigration, especially since the environments of other alternative planets are not as good as Hope Planet.

At least there is oxygen on Hope Star. The biological shield can absorb oxygen to generate oxygen concentration suitable for humans and supply it to the population of the base covered by the biological shield. However, if we go to other planets, the current biological shield may not be applicable.

There is also speculation that the planet's will is to exterminate humanity. If we really want to move away from Planet Hope one day, we will have to choose a planet that is farther away.

But patients with Rainy Day Syndrome cannot be left alone like this. These are citizens of the country and the people for whom the country is responsible. How can we allow them to be tortured to death by the disease?

Therefore, before the second immigration, the existence of the game manor must be announced, because only the normal secondary world is the only life-saving medicine for these patients.

Even after level 5, the system indicates that the manor will enter the normal cycle of spring, summer, autumn and winter, sunny and rainy days, but that is normal sunshine and normal weather, and it will definitely not be like Hope Star.

As long as they are allowed to go up to the secondary border when the weather is sunny, the country will not believe that it will have no effect.

Moreover, the game now has [temporary population]. Every level up will give 1 temporary population accounts. Although this temporary population account will have a standby time of 1000 hour after one person uses it, it can maximize the number of people logging into the game. Once this group of people log in, they can log off when the time is up, and another 1 people can log in. And according to the different mental strengths of each person, the online time is not a whole day. One account may be used by four or five people a day, greatly improving the utilization rate of the account.

The situation is much better than when you only had 100 fixed accounts after reaching the next level.

Maybe within less than half a year, all the seriously ill patients will have their accounts changed.

However, whether the temporary population should be opened to critically ill patients first is an issue that the country still needs to discuss before making a decision.

They still have time to discuss, because putting the announcement on the agenda does not mean that it will be announced right away. It still needs to be laid out step by step before it can be officially announced.

Before that, they not only had to specify various matters such as manor laws and manor exchange rules, but also had to stabilize the manor first. Building a city wall around the primary manor was only the first step. In addition, how to face foreign enemies, how to deal with the relationship between the manor and other populations and races, and how to deal with prisoners captured in another war, all of these had to be sorted out bit by bit. It was not that a proper solution could be come up with immediately. It was necessary to adapt to local conditions and formulate it according to actual conditions.

Matters such as manor laws and manor exchange rules need to be handled by Huameng experts, and what players have to do is to build manor defenses, improve military strength, build weapons, and maintain manor stability. At the same time, they must first find out the "neighbors" near the manor, what races and tribes there are, what they are good at, and whether they pose a threat to the manor. After mastering the specific situation, they can prepare preset scenario backup plans early, so as not to panic when the time comes.

At this time, various types of drones will be put online.

In fact, they should be grateful for the original planting space, otherwise, it would be a dream to want to remotely control and use modern technology to explore the environment.

Although there are only about twenty drones on the estate (with different functions, models and sizes), they should be enough to detect the environment and the tribe.

Such thoughts disappeared when the first bee-type drone was shot down by the tree elves.

The tree elves are 1.8 meters tall on average, with white skin and pointed ears. Their average looks are around 9 out of 10. No matter whether they are men or women, young or old, they are all very beautiful.

They live in trees and make a living by hunting and gathering. They are good at weaving and using bows. When they draw the bow, their pupils turn vertical. The arrows they shoot rarely miss. They can be said to be archers who never miss a target. They are more powerful than the dark-skinned goblins by more than one level.

And they have sharp five senses and trust their intuition. The honey-type drone was shot down by an arrow when it was filming them. The one who was shot down was a very beautiful girl. Before the player operating the other end of the drone could react, the tree elf girl drew her arrow and drew her bow.
"Clap."

Once an arrow hits, the player has no time to control the drone to dodge.

This is enough to show how powerful and swift this arrow is.

Moreover, at the moment when the drone was shot and fell, the vertical pupils of the tree elf in the picture when it was aiming also gave people goose bumps and seemed extremely dangerous, as if it was the so-called inorganic indifference described in the movie.

However, later when the player controlled other invisible drones and carefully observed from a distance, he found that although the tree elves had terrifying eyes when shooting arrows, they were still a very loving race in life. They were tribal, but they also developed families. The food they collected or hunted every day would be shared with the elderly tree elves and the young tree elves who had lost their parents in the tribe.

Moreover, they are not a bloodthirsty race. They hunt to fill their stomachs but not to torture their prey. If they can kill the prey with one arrow, they will not shoot a few more arrows to torture it.

When picking fruits, they are not greedy and will not pick all the fruits from the whole tree.

At the same time, they also eat cooked food, but only in the form of roasting and boiling.

In addition, the tree elves seem to have a strong sense of territory, and their hunting range will not exceed one boundary. On the other border of their hunting, the player also found another tribe of green-skinned tauren.

This is a tribe that is much larger and stronger than the yellow-skinned tauren tribe. According to the footage taken by drones, this tribe has a total of 508 people, with a large number of young and middle-aged working population. They rely on planting, hunting and gathering for a living, and the family system has also emerged.

Compared to the skin-skinned minotaurs that were discovered first, this group of green-skinned minotaurs look a little more ferocious.

Later, when the players accidentally captured the way these Tauren treated the captives of the defeated tribe, they confirmed that they were not judging people by their appearance, but that this tribe was indeed quite cruel and still retained the custom of sacrificing live Tauren.

In the Forest of Fergud, there are many tribes and races, big and small. Players are refreshing their understanding of different intelligent races every day.

It is not an easy task to protect the manor surrounded by such tribes.

The only thing that can be considered gratifying is that the tribes discovered by the players so far are still relatively backward, and their weapons are not that advanced. Those with bombs like the green-skinned dwarves have not been found yet.

The Forest of Fugud is very large, and it is not something that can be fully explored immediately with drones. They still need time to slowly advance outward from the manor, and only then can they truly come up with a tribal distribution map.

But why haven’t the players found any trace of humans so far? And who left the bomb that the green-skinned goblins picked up?

Players won't be able to truly rest easy until this mystery is solved.
