Doomsday survival game? I became a boss by picking up trash

Chapter 45

"How much do these herbs cost?"

Song Yu checked the herbs on the stall. So many herbs could make at least twenty bottles of potion.

The potions made from these blue herbs can increase recovery speed.

Including but not limited to blood volume recovery speed, physical strength recovery speed, disease recovery speed...

Although it only increases the recovery speed, it is a comprehensive and very powerful potion.

And the raw materials are scarce.

At least that was the case in the last copy.

In the previous dungeon, Song Yu had only used the finished blue potion to make medical bullets.

I didn't expect to meet him in this copy.

"In exchange for food."

The stall owner was a young boy. He looked up and glanced at Song Yu, and his voice sounded a little hollow.

Song Yu glanced at the compartments of his backpack. The roasted prey was all in Xiao Hei's backpack, making it convenient for it to eat.

Her backpack was filled with canned food.

Song Yu thought for a moment and took out 10 cans of food from his backpack, including meat, vegetables and fruits.

The prosperity of Chunmei Town does not mean that all the townspeople live a prosperous life. This child looks quite thin.

The child didn't say anything. He just stuffed the bag directly into Song Yu's hand and left the shopping street at high speed with the canned food.

"???"

It’s too expensive!
Song Yu's eyes widened, and before he could react, he suddenly felt that he had bargained too high.

No, she hadn't even bargained yet, her price was definitely too high.

Never mind. This herb is quite valuable, so it’s not a loss at all.

Song Yu put the herbs into the space. He had nothing to do anyway, so he could make the herbal water when he returned home in the evening.

Now is the perfect time for her to check out this dungeon to see if there are any devices for making medical bullets. She also wants to buy a stone bowl or something to make herbal water.

To be honest, every time he made herbal water, Song Yu felt like a witch doctor from a primitive tribe, and he really looked like one.

But the difference is that the herbal water made by the witch doctor of the primitive tribe may not be useful, but what she made is really useful.

After walking around the shopping street, Song Yu didn't see anything that excited her.

The main reason is that it feels too expensive and I can’t afford it.

The little food stored in the space was not enough for her and Xiao Hei to eat, let alone exchange it for some useless things.

Song Yu only bought a stone bowl, a stone pestle, an earthenware jar, and some mushrooms, potatoes, and radishes to stew the meat. Then he took Xiao Hei to an uninhabited house on the outskirts of Chunmei Town and temporarily lived there.

It's still early, but Song Yu plans to take a nap after finishing making the herbal water.

Tonight is a cold wave night, and danger will come after 12 o'clock. She and Xiao Hei will need sufficient physical strength and energy.

After sending Xiao Hei to bed, Song Yu began to concentrate on his own affairs.

Chicken soup is simmering in the iron pot on the campfire. Chicken stewed with mushrooms is really suitable for winter.

Next to it was a roe deer with its stomach stuffed with potatoes, radishes and garlic. The aroma of food filled the entire room. The firelight shone on Song Yu's quiet face, while Xiao Hei was lying on the ground and snoring.

Everything seems so warm.

By the time Song Yu had made all the herbs into potion water and put it in a special bamboo tube, the chicken and roe deer on the fire were also ready.

There was a thin layer of oil floating on the chicken soup. The roe deer meat was tender and juicy, and the skin was crispy. It looked delicious.

But these two things alone are not enough for Song Yu and Xiao Hei to eat.

Song Yu also took out the cured wild boar leg and continued to simmer the chicken soup in the pot.

It would be a good time for her and Xiao Hei to have another nap before eating. Only after eating a full meal will they have the strength to deal with the cold wave.

The man and the dog ate up all the roe deer meat and cured wild boar legs. After they were full and warm, they cleaned the room and went to sleep.

If it were in the real world, people might worry about digestion and blood sugar problems if they went to bed after eating, but in this copy, there is no need to worry at all.

This food is not enough to cover consumption.

Song Yu wrapped himself tightly in the quilt and fell into a deep sleep leaning against Xiao Hei.

After a day and night of traveling, everyone was exhausted and soon the sound of light snoring could be heard in the house.

The firelight flickered, and a man and a dog slept soundly.

……

[At midnight, the fifth day of the dungeon - the cold wave is coming, please be prepared! ]

When the system prompt sounded, Song Yu and Xiao Hei had already gotten up and gathered themselves.

Song Yu sat by the back window holding a gun, Xiao Hei was guarding the front door, and the bonfire in the middle of the room was high and burned for 72 hours.

Firewood is not a difficult commodity to obtain. Song Yu does not want to cause the failure of the copy due to his stinginess, so he has to be generous when necessary.

The moment the system prompt sounded, Song Yu clearly felt the temperature in the room dropping rapidly.

Normally, the indoor temperature should be maintained at around zero degrees with the help of the fire. Although it is cold, Song Yu is quite used to this temperature.

But now, Song Yu could clearly feel the coldness outside beginning to invade the room, even with the bonfire.

The heat energy seemed to be taken away.

Song Yu glanced at the bonfire. The burning time of the bonfire was decreasing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She couldn't help but frown.

The windows and doors were whistling in the wind and snow outside, and it seemed that they would be broken open by the wind and snow at any moment.

Song Yu and Xiao Hei looked at each other, and Song Yu gave half of the hot packs he had found in Lotus Town to Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei may not be able to survive the high temperature of the cold wave.

Of course, if Xiao Hei couldn't hold on, Song Yu would be even less able to hold on.

Stuffing the hot water bottle into the inner pocket of the rabbit-skin cloak, Song Yu skillfully loaded the gun and stood guard by the window.

The glass was covered with frost, and coupled with the violent snowstorm, it was difficult to see what was happening outside.

Just as Song Yu was concentrating, an extremely sharp scream suddenly came from the inner circle of the town.

Song Yu and Xiao Hei immediately became extremely alert.

And this scream seemed to be the prelude to the danger of tonight. Xiao Hei's eyes were fierce and he was grinding his claws on the floor restlessly.

"Xiaoyu, something is coming!"

The little black boy stared at the gate and let out a low growl like a wild animal sensing danger.

"Be careful."

There was a secret sense of uneasiness in Song Yu's heart. The unknown was the most frightening thing.

"Knock-"

At this moment, the door suddenly seemed to be knocked by something.

Then a strange voice was heard outside the door.

"Open the door - open the door quickly - it's me, open the door quickly and let me in -"

The sound was stiff and without any ups and downs. The knocking on the door came one after another with a sense of rhythm.

Song Yu glanced at Xiao Hei. She knew that the thing outside was definitely not a human, but she couldn't help but feel curious.

What on earth is that outside?
Song Yu soon found out the answer to this question.

Things outside were knocking on the door persistently, as if they would persist unless the door was opened, but they didn't seem to be trying to attack at all.

Song Yu turned his attention back to the rear glass of the house he was responsible for, but just as he turned his head.

"!!"

Song Yu suddenly bumped into a pair of huge black pupils, the eyes were so wide open that they almost occupied half of his face.

"Found—you." A pale human face was pressed tightly against the window, its mouth opening and closing with an extremely strange smile.

Whether it's the smile that stretches to the back of the ears, the color of the skin, or the abnormally large pupils, none of them are something a normal person can have.

The sound passed through the glass window and reached Song Yu's ears accurately. Just listening to it made people shudder.

[Lost in the snow, the one who returned from the cold wave]

This is the name hanging above his head. Although the system says so, Song Yu doesn’t think that these guys outside are human at all.

They are just monsters in human skin.

"Let me in—it's so cold outside—"

The person knocking on the door was still knocking persistently, and the tone of his voice gradually became resentful from being emotionless at the beginning.

Xiao Hei ignored it and was ready to attack at any time.

The muzzle of the rifle in Song Yu's hand was also aimed at the "person" stuck on the window, ready to shoot at any time.

“Open the door! Open the door quickly!!”

Seeing that the person inside was unwilling to open the door for a long time, the guy outside finally started to get angry and banged on the door loudly, making a deafening noise.

"..."

Song Yu stared at the monster on the window and an idea came to his mind.

"They can't get in, right?"

"Just like the vampires in the movies, they can't come in without an invitation."

Song Yu felt that this possibility was very high.

The door is difficult to enter, but the glass window next to it can be easily smashed with a stone, right?
"If that's the case, then we can stay safe until dawn."

However, this idea was quickly rejected by both Song Yu and Xiao Hei.

These monsters have restrictions and cannot enter, but other creatures do not have this restriction.

For example...a figure appeared in Song Yu and Xiao Hei's minds at the same time.

black bear.

If there are monsters in the team of these monsters, then they will be in danger.

Listening to the screams coming from all directions in the town, Song Yu felt that there were definitely wild beasts in this cold wave.

It's just that they were lucky and didn't run into each other.

Before he figured out the situation of the monsters outside, Song Yu didn't plan to take the initiative to confront them.

These monsters are different from the zombies in the previous copy. Apart from a name, the rest of the information on their panels are question marks. There are not even numerical values such as attack, damage, and health.

It's really strange.

The zombies are about technology and physics, and these monsters feel mysterious and weird.

Song Yu still prefers to face zombies or monsters with health bars like black bears, and Xiao Hei is the same.

Zombies could be dealt with with a slap, it’s nothing like now where we can only hide in the house in frustration.

If possible, Song Yu would like to hide in the house to ride out the cold wave.

However, as time passed, the screams of humans nearby became less and less, and more and more monsters gathered outside their two cabins.

The dense words were like a curse, surrounding every corner of the cabin and even the roof.

Song Yu heard a rustling sound coming from the roof, and the bonfire in the house was dropping rapidly at an extremely strange speed.

"Xiao Hei, add more firewood!!"

Song Yu put away his gun and rushed towards the bonfire, shouting!

She knows!

The huge bonfire in Springberry Town is not only to raise the temperature of the town, but also to ward off monsters!
The reason why firewood fuel has become the best-selling item is because it saves lives!

Once the fire is out and there is nothing blocking it, these monsters will invade the house!
There may be two conditions for the monsters to invade. One is to open the door for them actively, and the other is to extinguish the fire.

The very existence of these monsters will absorb the heat energy from the surroundings. The more they gather, the more heat energy they steal and the faster they go.

Song Yu quickly added firewood to the bonfire, but the speed she added was not enough for the bonfire to consume. With the addition of Xiao Hei, the consumption and replenishment speeds were equal.

However, there was not much firewood in Song Yu's backpack, and he would not be able to survive until dawn if he continued like this.

We have to find a way.

While adding firewood to the fire, Song Yu quickly searched for supplies that might be useful.

Her eyes fell on the kerosene lamp and gasoline.

The item description of the kerosene lamp is that it can dispel the cold and allow people to walk in the wind and snow, which does not seem to have anything to do with cold waves.

"Forget it, let's try it out."

Because of the black bear, Song Yu got 500 experience points from Mayor Chunmei, which was enough to upgrade the garbage man's talent. There was no need to be stingy with such a little resource.

She immediately took the kerosene lamp out of the compartment of her backpack and placed it on the ground. The moment the kerosene lamp fell to the ground, the surroundings immediately became quiet.

The guys surrounding the hut seemed to have all disappeared, but Song Yu looked back.

Still.

I just don't know why it became quiet.

This kerosene lamp is the key.

The kerosene lamp lasts for one hour, during which they should not be harassed any further.

Song Yu and Xiao Hei finally had time to study the peculiarities of the kerosene lamp.

"Driving away the cold, could it be that it also dispels the coldness in them, so they become quiet?"

As Xiao Hei listened to Song Yu's explanation of the kerosene lamp, a light bulb suddenly lit up in his head.

Recalling the name of the monster outside the door, [Lost in the Snow, the Man Returning from the Cold Wave].

What Xiao Hei said is very likely.

"No wonder I saw hot water bottles and heat pads in the shopping street, but no kerosene lamps."

Song Yu suddenly realized that this small kerosene lamp held a secret.

This should be the key to clearing the copy.

Otherwise, no matter how much firewood she stored, it would not be enough for these monsters to consume in one night.

If you can’t survive the cold wave, you’re basically dead.

What a sinister copy.

Song Yu carefully poured gasoline on the bonfire while cursing in his heart.

Gasoline is also a type of fuel. Firewood poured with gasoline becomes more resistant to burning.

This made Song Yu breathe a sigh of relief.

It’s good news that we don’t have to fight these cold wave monsters head-on.

With the addition of gasoline, it will not be a problem for Song Yu and Xiao Hei to survive tonight's cold wave.

……

Because the resources were abundant enough and they were willing to spend them, Song Yu and Xiao Hei safely survived the cold wave on the fifth day of the game.

When the hour hand pointed to 6 o'clock, the wind and snow outside the house disappeared without a trace in an instant, and the monster disappeared with it.

When Song Yu opened the door and walked out, she seemed to step on something and she lowered her head.

【Thanks from the Lost】.
