Chapter 44
"Yes."
After hearing Song Yu's answer, the fur shop owner in a cloak finally looked at her. This little girl is really something.
Whether she did the killing or her dog did it, this little girl is not to be underestimated.
The smile on Song Yu's face did not change. Their Xiao Hei is just so amazing!
"You killed the black bear and you can take the bear skin to Springberry Town to claim the bounty."
"That black bear has been lurking in this area for a long time and has killed many people. Several surrounding towns have joined together to issue a bounty."
This boss was a good person. Even faced with a high bounty, he told Song Yu the truth about the situation.
[The player has triggered the side quest - Winter Nightmare: Lord of the Cannibal Cave]
[Quest requirements: Kill the Cannibal Cave Lord (1/1)]
[Completion Reward: Unknown]
[Tip: Please go to Springberry Town as soon as possible to claim the mission reward before the cold wave arrives]
This is an expected side quest, and the unknown reward is very exciting.
"Springberry Town?"
This name has a very spring-like feel and is different from the names of other towns.
If what the fur shop owner said was true and not false, Song Yu felt that this place should be the player NPC trading place recognized by the copy system.
There should be a merchant NPC there.
Although the fur shop owner in front of him could also trade, she did not have a panel and title like Chen Su and the others in the previous copy.
This is just an ordinary NPC who can only adopt the simplest method of barter.
"Yes, go east after leaving the town, and you will see the sign for Springberry Town."
"It's quite a distance. You have to pass through at least three towns."
The boss glanced at Xiao Hei at the door. With this dog, the girl should be able to arrive safely.
"Okay, thank you."
Song Yu thanked him politely and took out the fur that had been preliminarily processed from the compartment of his backpack.
"Are you still accepting this?"
The boss looked down at the frozen fur in Song Yu's hand, his mouth twitching slightly, but he still said.
"receive."
The temperature has been getting lower and lower recently, and even prey has become increasingly scarce. Correspondingly, the demand for warm materials is also increasing.
Since the boss wanted to buy them, Song Yu didn't waste his time and directly gave her all the furs in the backpack except the black bear skin.
Then I changed it into a rabbit fur coat from the fur shop.
I have to say, this rabbit fur coat is really warm. Its warmth level is one level higher than that of a windbreaker, and its defense power is 1 points higher than that of a windbreaker.
The rabbit fur coat is as long as Song Yu's calves. It must have taken a lot of rabbit skins. The workmanship and stitching are also very neat, and it is very comfortable to wear.
After Song Yu put on the rabbit fur coat, he left the fur shop and took Xiao Hei out of the town and headed straight for Chunmei Town.
We will probably have to travel overnight tonight. Fortunately, Xiao Hei is here, so we don't have to worry too much about the threats from wild beasts and humans, or the problem of keeping warm.
Looking at the departing backs of Song Yu and Xiao Hei, some NPCs wanted to follow Song Yu, but most of them thought about Xiao Hei who was following Song Yu, and they gave up the idea.
Don’t let someone kill you and eat you up like a barbecue.
Since the world froze, signs of cannibalism have become more and more frequent.
Some survivors even went out of their way to find people frozen in ice to eat.
There is a town in the north, and the whole town is...
I don't know when they will degenerate into this state.
Well, let's just live one day at a time.
The guy who can afford such a big dog,
However, there are still some NPCs who are not afraid of death and want to give it a try. They turn their bicycles into motorcycles and quietly follow Song Yu.
However, before they could catch up with Song Yu, the sudden snowstorm obscured their vision, and soon they could not tell the way they came and went.
Without food and adequate heating supplies, only one fate awaits them.
Song Yu and Xiao Hei, who had already gone far away, knew that someone was following them, but neither Song Yu nor Xiao Hei cared.
If the NPC also had talents, the two of them would definitely turn around and go back to kill them, but unfortunately they didn't.
Song Yu didn't care whether they were dead or alive and just focused on getting on with his journey.
At night, the wind and snow became stronger, so the man and the dog found a place to shelter from the wind.
We built a temporary shelter with bamboo and plastic sheets, spent the night there, and continued our journey the next day.
Because of Xiao Hei, Song Yu would not freeze to death at night.
But this feeling is really uncomfortable.
……
Day 4 of the game.
Song Yu was yawning and drowsy on the sled. Theoretically, Xiao Hei was more tired than Song Yu.
They had to hurry on their way, and they had to drag Song Yu with them.
But in fact, Xiao Hei is much more energetic than Song Yu, and has plenty of energy to spare.
Song Yu also felt helpless. She really couldn't compare to Xiao Hei's physique.
After a few more levels, Xiao Hei will probably grow into a BOSS monster like the black bear it killed.
But correspondingly, the difficulty of the copy should be higher.
The man and the dog traveled at night and arrived at Springberry Town before noon.
Chunmei Town is different from all the towns Song Yu and Xiao Hei have ever seen. The previous towns, whether there were living people or not, all made people feel dead.
But Springberry Town is different, it is full of life.
only……
Song Yu looked around the town. The vitality of Chunmei Town seemed to come from plundering the vitality of the surrounding environment.
Since they approached Chunmei Town, Song Yu and Xiao Hei haven't seen any resources on the road.
There was no stone, no wood, no weeds, no animals.
Within a few miles, except for the Chunmei Town which exudes vitality, other places are dead silent.
There's a ghost in this place.
Song Yu and Xiao Hei stood at the gate of Chunmei Town and did not go in immediately.
I always feel that there is something wrong here, but Song Yu can't tell where the problem is.
After thinking for a moment, Song Yu took Xiao Hei into the town.
Compared to Hongwan Town where we visited yesterday, there are many residents walking leisurely in Chunmei Town, and the impact of the cold wave is almost invisible here.
Walking along the avenue, Song Yu saw the huge bonfire in the square.
This is probably one of the reasons why there is no trace of severe cold in the town.
"Outsiders?"
Seeing Song Yu and Xiao Hei, two strangers they had never seen before, the residents of Chunmei looked at them curiously.
outsider?
This name is very interesting.
Whether it was the NPCs in the previous copy or this copy, Song Yu had never heard them call players like this.
"Outsiders, what are you doing here?"
A middle-aged man asked loudly with a vigilant look.
"I heard from residents in other towns that you seem to have been troubled by that black bear."
Song Yu did not directly say that the black bear had been killed by Xiao Hei, but gave a tentative answer.
"It is true. Not only are we troubled, but people in other towns are also troubled."
"That guy ate a lot of people, especially during blizzards and cold snaps, it would appear silently."
“Whether the townspeople were out exploring or staying in the town, they were all attacked by it. No one knows how it entered the town.”
"That guy has eaten almost all the prey in the surrounding area, but no one has been able to kill it so far." When the townspeople talked about the black bear, their faces were filled with disgust, mixed with a strong sense of fear.
Even in their town, many people were eaten by the black bear.
Song Yu grasped the key point in his words, the cold wave.
During cold waves, black bears will go out hunting, which means that the powerful beasts in this instance are also one of the dangers of the cold wave.
Speaking of which... today is the 4th day of the game. If she rushes back overnight, she will encounter a cold wave.
Looks like we'll have to spend the night in town.
I don't know if this town is willing to take her in.
"I want to meet the mayor of Springberry Town, is that okay?"
"You want to see the mayor?"
"I heard that you issued a bounty order and Song Xiaohei killed the black bear."
Song Yu pointed at Xiao Hei who was following behind him, smiled slightly, and took out the black bear's fur from the compartment of his backpack.
She didn't take the credit for herself, and even if she did, no one would probably believe her.
"What?!!!"
The middle-aged man looked at the black bear skin in Song Yu's hand in shock, then looked at Xiao Hei behind Song Yu, stunned.
The other townspeople in the square were also in a dead silence. The black bear had actually been killed! !
"The mayor is in the shopping street over there, you can just go there."
The middle-aged man was obviously still in a daze and pointed in a certain direction blankly.
Because Xiao Hei killed the biggest threat to the nearby NPC residents, the middle-aged man's tone of voice became much softer.
"Okay, thank you."
Song Yu thanked him politely and left with Xiao Hei.
Arriving at the shopping street, just as Song Yu had expected, Chunmei Town was the gathering place for the NPC merchants in this dungeon.
The shopping street was bustling with activity, as if the apocalypse had never taken place.
There were a wide variety of goods on the streets, and Song Yu also saw a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits.
However, Song Yu was unwilling to let this copy live nearby.
Don’t be fooled by the large number of goods here, as they all require exchange for supplies.
All the resources near Chunmei Town have been exploited by Chunmei Town, making it much more difficult to obtain resources. One has to go to farther places to get available resources.
This is not a suitable place to be a base.
Of course, trading is still possible.
Entering the shopping street, Song Yu found the mayor of Chunmei Town at a glance.
The mayor of Chunmei Town is also an NPC businessman, and a weapons businessman at that, with the title still attached.
That makes perfect sense.
When Song Yu took out the black bear skin, the young man in front of him who was smoking a cigarette and looked nonchalant showed the same surprise on his face as the middle-aged man just now.
He didn't expect that the black bear was killed like this.
Xiao Hei is also lucky.
Xiao Hei happened to run into the black bear when it had eaten its fill and was hibernating, so he was killed so easily.
"It's quite impressive."
Mayor Chunmei took the black bear skin from Song Yu's hand, examined it, and then accepted it without hesitation.
[Player Song Yu has completed the side quest - Winter Nightmare: Lord of the Cannibal Cave, and obtained 500 experience points and a bonus of 100 million. ]
[Player Song Yu obtains 10 points of respect from the dungeon NPC - the bear-hunting woman.]
"?"
Wasn’t it Xiao Hei who killed the bear?
Song Yu looked at Xiao Hei, and Xiao Hei gave Song Yu a look, saying that it had also completed the task and gained respect.
Understanding the meaning in Song Xiaohei's eyes, Song Yu felt that this game system was quite good.
A black bear lord monster gave them 250 million.
Huh?
Why do I feel like I'm being scolded?
Song Yu didn't dwell on this matter too much. As long as he made money, that was enough.
At this rate, she should be able to make quite a lot of money in this copy.
"Can I stay on the town tonight?"
Song Yu asked.
She definitely couldn't get back tonight, so she had to find a safe place to ride out the cold wave.
Although Chunmei Town is a bit weird, Song Yu feels that it is relatively safe compared to other places, right?
Song Yu did not forget what the middle-aged man had said just now, that the black bear took advantage of the cold wave to enter the town.
It's just relatively safe here.
"..."
Mayor Chunmei did not answer Song Yu immediately, but thought for a moment and said.
"You can choose an empty house on the outskirts of town."
There are also many empty houses in Springberry Town. Because of the cold wave and the black bear, people often die in the town.
Except for those NPC merchants, the rest of the townspeople will undergo some changes whenever a cold wave comes.
"Thanks."
Song Yu thanked the mayor and left. She planned to take Xiao Hei for a walk around the town.
She discovered one thing: the combat power of the NPC in this copy, or rather the NPC merchant, was not as high as that in the previous copy.
In the previous copy, Chen Su, Jiang Zhou, Jing Ming and others were all able to fight against a level 7 zombie alone.
Maybe it’s because the previous copy was a zombie apocalypse, and this copy is a cold wave apocalypse?
As soon as this idea came up, it was quickly rejected by Song Yu.
It can be seen from the black bear that the BOSS monster in this copy is stronger than the zombies in the previous copy to some extent.
What exactly is the difference here?
Could it be that the NPCs in this copy are younger?
Song Yu felt that she might have revealed the truth.
However, Song Yu did not dwell too much on this issue, after all, it was just a copy.
Because Chunmei Town is rich in resources, Song Yu's previous idea of making money from fresh vegetables and fruits has failed.
And her most expert medical supplies formula, the blood-restoring bandage, doesn't seem to be very popular in this dungeon.
The main reason was that Song Yu himself didn’t have many bandages.
The most common commodity in the shopping street is firewood, and all NPC merchants will recycle firewood.
However, the firewood in Song Yu's backpack was not enough for her own use, and it was definitely not enough to exchange for supplies.
Let's see what the price of purified alcohol is.
Most common supplies are available in all copies of the game. Song Yu found purified alcohol from a doctor NPC merchant.
One bottle of purified alcohol costs 1 pieces of firewood, but the recycling price of one roll of disinfectant bandage is only 1000 pieces of firewood.
Can't afford it, can't afford it.
Song Yu left decisively.
"what?"
Suddenly, Song Yu stopped in front of an NPC and picked up a handful of plants from the NPC's stall.
Aren’t these the herbs that are the raw materials for potions needed to make medical bullets?
I felt uncomfortable for two days. It turned out that I had a fever. Haha
