Extreme Cold Apocalypse: My Shelter is Full of Beautiful Women
Chapter 12 "A Fair Price"
Xu Qiang had a bad feeling about this.
Where did those monsters come from?
There's not much danger now that there are only a few, but what if the number increases?
And then there's the increasingly cold weather.
The temperature dropped from 32 degrees to minus 50 degrees, basically decreasing by 2 or 3 degrees every day.
He simply couldn't believe what would happen if things continued like this.
"Oh? A monster?"
Ye Yan became interested.
"Um."
Ali interjected, rubbing his hands together as he spoke.
"Last night, we killed that white wolf on the east side of the neighborhood with shovels and kitchen knives. After it died, we divided the meat off its body, and this thing was dug out of it."
As he spoke, he pointed to the cloth bag in Ye Yan's hand.
"That's not all," Xu Qiang added, "the fur was also stripped off, and it can be wrapped around the body to block the wind."
Ye Yan nodded thoughtfully.
The monster has a flint inside its body.
It seems that the source of this flint is not limited to "burning corpses".
Living monsters also accumulate this energy crystals within their bodies.
This is new information.
But more importantly, monsters have appeared.
You have to understand, Tianhai City is a first-tier city, no, even a second- or third-tier city, it's impossible for a snow wolf to appear there.
So the question is, how did they come about?
Appeared suddenly?
Like the snow that freezes the entire world.
Or perhaps it escaped from the zoo?
And, like them, the Sequence Awakeners, what did they awaken?
It seems that hiding in a room isn't necessarily safe.
It's not just people we need to be wary of.
Therefore, it is even more necessary to arm his shelter.
And all of this is based on the premise that,
We need a lot of flint!
Stone, iron, and wood can all be obtained by dismantling furniture, but flint requires a lot of it.
Suddenly, Ye Yan thought of something.
"By the way, I have some warm clothing here, do you need it?"
"Warm clothing?"
Xu Qiang and the others exchanged a glance and let out a wry smile.
"If you're talking about something like a small electric heater or a hand warmer, then forget it, we don't have a generator."
"Yeah, that's right!" Xu San sighed helplessly.
"Although there are gas stations near the community, the gasoline would probably have frozen solid in this weather, making it difficult to dig out even with specialized equipment."
"No, no, no, this thing of mine doesn't need fuel or electricity, yet it can continuously provide heat to the surrounding area, raising the temperature by at least several tens of degrees."
Ye Yan smiled mysteriously as he promoted his product.
"Furthermore, it's very convenient to carry around."
"What?"
When Xu Qiang and the others heard that Ye Yan had a thermal item that could raise the temperature by dozens of degrees, their eyes widened in disbelief.
They thought the young man was trying to fool them.
How could such a thing exist?
This does not conform to the law of conservation of energy at all.
Furthermore, he didn't believe that any small creature could raise the temperature so high in such extreme cold.
just.
What if?
"Is it really that amazing?"
Xu San couldn't wait to see if it was true.
If that's true, then his little sisters wouldn't have to huddle under the covers trembling at night to sleep.
can.
When he saw Ye Yan pull a wooden stick out of his trench coat pocket, he was stunned and his mouth twitched.
"Are you sure you're not making fun of us?"
The wooden stick was crudely made and looked like it had been hastily put together.
The front end is wrapped with black cotton cloth and secured with wire, and the overall shape looks like a craft project assignment.
Ali glanced at it and almost burst out laughing.
"Brother, what's that... a torch?"
"That's right," Ye Yan said calmly.
"That's it?" Ali suppressed a laugh. "What can this thing do? Light it up to make a fire? It's minus fifty degrees outside. You couldn't even light ten of these broken sticks."
Ye Yan wasn't angry; in fact, the smile on his lips remained unchanged.
Suddenly, he swung his sword in mid-air.
call!
The next moment, a ball of flame suddenly burst out from the tip of the torch.
The fire, though only the size of a fist, instantly dispelled the chill within a meter radius.
Ali's laughter stopped abruptly.
Xu Qiang stared wide-eyed, mouth agape, in disbelief.
Xu San subconsciously took a step forward and reached out to feel the temperature of the flames.
"It's so warm!"
Xu San's voice was trembling.
"How is this possible? How can such a small fire be more than ten times more powerful than my diesel heater!"
Xu Qiang was also stunned.
He reached out and touched the torch.
The warmth felt like an invisible hand gently stroking his frozen fingers, and even the frostbite on his arms caused by hunting monsters was greatly relieved.
"this……"
Xu Qiang suddenly looked up at Ye Yan.
"What is this?"
"Torch".
Ye Yan repeated it.
"Sequence Creation"
"Sequence creation?" Xu San's mind hadn't quite processed it yet.
"Is this your sequence ability?" Xu Qiang suddenly realized.
"Could it be that you are also a Sequence Awakener like the boss?!" Ali was very excited and wanted to say something, but Xu San stopped him.
"Why do you blurt out everything without thinking?!"
"Hmm"
"Oh"
Ye Yan looked at Xu Qiang, showing no surprise, and said:
"You're also a Sequence Awakener?"
Since the other side was able to go out to find food and kill the monsters they were talking about so early, it means that they have something to rely on.
In addition, since the two of them had always sided with Xu Qiang, Ye Yan guessed it.
"ah."
Xu Qiang scratched his head, looking embarrassed, and said:
"There's not much to say about my sequence, except that I'm a bit stronger."
"Is that so?"
Ye Yan nodded, not taking Xu Qiang's words seriously. Anyone with a modicum of common sense would not casually disclose information about sequence abilities to others.
"You can give it a try." Ye Yan handed over the torch.
Xu Qiang took the torch and carefully held it in front of him.
The flames danced in his hand, yet there was no burning sensation.
The warmth spread from the tip of the torch, like an invisible bubble, enveloping them all.
"Ten degrees Celsius."
Ali glanced down at the digital watch on his wrist, which had a thermometer function.
"It's minus fifty degrees Celsius right now!"
Everyone fell silent.
They stared at the rough torch, their eyes shifting from doubt to shock, and from shock to fervor.
"Boss!"
Xu San was the first to come to his senses, his voice trembling.
"If this thing works, it can extend the time we can spend going out to collect supplies! Right now, we have to come back after just twenty minutes. With this, we can last at least an hour!"
"more than,"
Ali blushed with excitement.
"If we could light some and leave them in the room at night, my grandma could finally get a good night's sleep! She hasn't slept for days, and even wrapped in three layers of blankets, she's still shivering from the cold!"
Xu Qiang took a deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart.
He looked at Ye Yan, his gaze more serious than before.
"What do you want in exchange for this torch?"
"Firestone." Ye Yan chuckled.
"One flint for one torch." Ye Yan said without changing his expression, offering a "fair price."
