After eating a "ton" of complete supper, Katerina gained a lot of weight visible to the naked eye.
However, according to what she said, the digestion ability of humans injected with the active potion will be more than five times that of ordinary humans.
Even if you eat more, the body can decompose and store the beneficial substances extracted from these foods.
"This is a good thing, can you make some more?"
Su Mo nodded slightly, with a look of interest in his eyes.
The researchers work irregularly, and often work overtime for several days because of an inspiration.
During this period, eating is a very troublesome thing.
The increase in blood sugar and the secretion of melatonin will make the hard-won inspiration disappear.
Therefore, after injecting the active potion and eating a big meal, there will be no feeling of hunger within a few days.
Change the angle.
If you can take more injections before marching for a long distance, you can keep your body functioning at its peak in the next few days.
It is simply a weapon of war.
"Of course, it's very easy to make active potions. You only need two main materials, one of which is a common economic crop on Blue Star, the active leaf." Katerina nodded nonchalantly.
But after he finished speaking, he changed his voice: "However, there should not be many active leaves stored in the bunker. If you want to make a large amount, I'm afraid you have to wait until winter is over and plant a batch yourself from seeds."
"It's easy to have seeds."
Su Mo smiled and said.
Active leaves are Blue Star's mainstay cash crop. The red spider caravan gave him some before, and they should still be in the warehouse.
Somewhat similar to tobacco leaves on Earth, both have stimulating properties.
The difference is that there are more stimulating elements in the active leaf, which can be further concentrated after special extraction.
And all kinds of concentrated drinks have hallucinogenic effects, but the side effects are very small, and they are the only entertainment for the lower class.
Even without the active potion, Sumo planned to wait until winter passed and spring began to plant a batch.
When the time comes, take it to other aborigines' cities or gathering places, and I'm sure you can get a lot of good things in exchange.
Leaving the happy cooks to clean up the "battlefield", Su Mo walked out of the simple cafeteria.
Katerina also quickly wiped her mouth and followed.
Seeing that there were no guards around, she took a step forward and said in a low voice:
"I've heard that Hades is going to hold a meeting in Sunny Harbor tomorrow, are you going too?"
"Of course, he has mainly invited the managers of our Western Suburban League."
Su Mo nodded, showing an undeniable expression.
The letter sent to the Territory's border wall was more serious than the letter sent to Pumpkin Bunker.
There are even more photos, including a lot of close-ups of the monitor lizard.
"Then you have to be careful, Hades is not a good person, he is very likely to directly attack you."
Hearing these words, Su Mo was slightly taken aback.
"How to say?"
"Although killing people is the easiest and most stupid way to solve the problem."
Katerina said with a serious expression.
"But every person who chooses to enter the hibernation chamber will have a 30-day rapid awakening period after waking up. If they can choose to sleep again during this time, the impact will be greatly reduced. If Hades wants to solve the problem All the problems will not affect him to continue to sleep, he will definitely choose to use the most violent way to solve the problem, and the time will not exceed one month."
"Trust me, killing you is definitely the most direct way."
Katerina didn't say a word.
If there is no deep sleep after more than thirty days, it will enter the backlash period.
As time goes on during this period, the risk of the next dormancy will also increase.
If it has not entered the dormant chamber for more than a year, the next dormant death rate will soar to 80%.
If it exceeds three years, dormancy is tantamount to death.
Therefore, researchers and professors in most colleges are unwilling to enter this endless cycle.
After all, once he wakes up, he will face a choice, and every thirty years, he only has one month to deal with chores.
And there are only two roads before Hades.
Either solve the trouble quickly and continue to sleep.
Or choose to give up sleeping and finish the last journey of life.
"Well, I will be careful." Su Mo accepted this expected advice, and comforted the researcher by the way: "You don't have to worry too much, our Western Suburbs Alliance is not made of mud, in fact tomorrow If he dares to do it, I will let him know how heavy the price will be."
"I can rest assured that."
Katerina didn't inquire about Su Mo's preparations in detail, and ended the topic very cleverly.
She knows where she stands.
Although he is also one of the participants of the Western Suburbs Alliance, in fact, his identity is just an ordinary person with research ability.
If it is a gathering place with scientific research capabilities, she can also get certain treatment.
But if she went to that kind of primitive and savage gathering place, who would care if she studied biology or physics before.
As long as the benefits cannot be brought immediately, the end will not be any different from those slaves.
After arranging someone to take Katerina to find a room to rest, Su Mo continued to board the airship and return to the dungeon in the night rain.
Most of the preparations for tomorrow's action have been made.
But there are still some finishing touches needed to make sure the plan is on point.
In addition, the challenge tasks of the system will also be refreshed at 8 o'clock on the first day of February.
And the black building where the chips are made will open at the same time tomorrow.
"Tomorrow will be wonderful."
After landing the airship, looking at the black clouds that were still gathering, Su Mo slightly twisted his neck.
For some reason, he always felt that the rain was aimed at Hades.
If the dwarves sent a large army to attack at this time, I am afraid that the enhanced version of biological inhibitors would not have much effect.
February 1st of the second year of the waste earth calendar.
The torrential rain that covered most of the New World not only did not stop, but it covered a larger area after one night.
Thick black clouds hung over the entire sky, and the big raindrops fell like crazy as if they didn't want money.
The temperature is even lower.
Without the warmth brought by the sun, the temperature during the day dropped to less than five degrees.
Fortunately, the cotton planted before had been harvested a few days ago and dried.
Otherwise, after being watered by this heavy rain, it is estimated that there will not be a few flowers left to be picked.
"Lord, our garment factory is already working overtime to make winter clothes, and it can meet the needs of the field in three days at most."
Chen Shen stood at his desk and reported.
The "Tangtang" garment factory started by wanting to eat sugar came into being, and attracted many handicraft lovers to enter.
The current production capacity is only 200 pieces a day, but with the improvement of proficiency, it will not take a month to meet the needs.
"Okay, overhaul the heating facilities as soon as possible, this winter should be very cold."
Last night he didn't go to bed until three o'clock, and now it's only seven o'clock, Su Mo's head is still a little dazed.
But being blown by the cold wind, he instantly woke up.
Before you know it, winter is here again!
I still remember that at the beginning of last winter, the shelter only had two small floors.
At that time, Su Mo's greatest wish was to be able to reunite his family and have abundant supplies.
It's only been a year.
The shelter has changed from two floors to six floors above ground and underground, and the space has expanded by more than ten times.
The manpower under him has also changed from a lonely family to more than 10,000 people, and the scale is now comparable to a small town.
And the most important materials, almost filled all the warehouses built, enough to feed 100,000 people for two years.
Coupled with the development of surrounding allies and technology.
Thinking about it carefully, it really makes people feel like a world away.
"Okay, Mr. Liehu has sent a message asking when you are leaving?"
"Let him wait first, don't worry."
After Chen Shen was dismissed, Su Mo continued to sit on the stool and stare at the ceiling in thought.
In the void that no one else could see, the system's panel had unfolded, revealing a countdown number.
00:11:21
There are still more than ten minutes, and the challenge mission of the V1.1 version update will be refreshed.
As a new function to replace the novice guide, it is also a pre-task to start the v1.2 version.
Although Su Mo didn't expect to reward a big killer similar to Dongfeng 17 to help the territory gain a firm foothold.
But the increasingly complicated situation recently made him yearn for help urgently.
No way, this is the limitation of the individual and time.
Although human beings have the ability to develop civilization to the modern level again, this process will take at least several decades or even longer.
Especially those industries that require a lot of infrastructure construction, if they develop step by step, it will be too slow!
It is very likely that the layout of an industry will take more than ten years, or even longer.
But does the wasteland really have so much time?
Thinking about the wasteland in the ruins nine years ago, the number of human beings was already less than 100 million, and it was still declining.
Assume that ten years is a cycle.
Disasters do not stop, and Su Mo seriously doubts that human beings will not last until the second decade.
While thinking, a crisp "ding" sounded.
It's eight o'clock!
The free refresh button on the challenge task interface has been lit up, flashing a conspicuous light.
Press the Gathering Mind button, and the empty panel begins to change.
After about a few seconds, a series of words clearly appeared.
From top to bottom, there are three in total, accompanied by simple tips attached to the first viewing task.
[Growth bonus mission in February of the second year of the wasteland]
[This growth task is divided into three difficulty levels: low, medium, and high, and you can get different rewards after completing it]
[This challenge task is not divided into difficulty levels, and you can receive mysterious rewards after completing it]
【Low Difficulty Task】
【Recruit troops and buy horses, recharge your batteries】
[Task requirements: recruit at least 1,000 humans (earth) to join the territory, and increase the average health of the subjects to 40+]
[Mission reward: five tons of meat (two tons of beef, two tons of pork, and one ton of fish)]
[Mid-difficulty task]
【Enclosure is king, infrastructure construction】
[Task requirements: expand the territorial area by at least 10%, and add at least 5,000 people a living infrastructure. 】
[Task Reward: Science and Technology Survival Point*2000; Elementary Item Upgrade Voucher*1; Version Progress 0.5%]
【Difficult task】
【Support war with war, mobilize troops and feed horses】
[Task Requirements: Participate in a war with at least 10,000 people, and contribute military exploits as the main force of the war. 】
[Task Reward: Item Survival Point*5000; Elementary Complete Production Line Optional*1; Version Progress 5%]
【Challenge Mission】
【The winner is the king, the master of the alliance】
[Task duration: three months]
[Task Requirements: Become a recognized leader in the Western Suburbs Alliance and gain the recognition and conviction of allies]
[Task Reward: Add a new floor to Tianyuan Dungeon (Orientation: Science and Technology; Additional Items and Facilities: Random)]
[Mission failure: deduct 5% version progress]
Fuck?
After scanning the requirements and rewards of the three tasks at a glance, Su Mo couldn't help but exclaimed.
This is too surprising.
Before the task was refreshed, Su Mo thought that the challenges released by the system would be very difficult to complete.
But now it seems that it is quite simple?
Like this low-difficulty task, if it was a few months ago, it might be difficult to attract a thousand players from Earth.
But now is the peak period of migration, as long as you pay attention to it, it is not difficult to meet this requirement.
As for the health requirements.
Now the average health of more than 10,000 people in the territory is 51.
Not high, but only 1,000 people want to pull this value to 40, unless it is to find some terminally ill and dying people.
Otherwise, you can easily meet this requirement and receive the reward of 'five tons of meat'.
And intermediate tasks
Seems simpler?
Expanding the territorial area can be operated through the territorial panel, and the accumulated territorial points are completely sufficient.
Build enough infrastructure for 5,000 people.
Somo focused on this item and found that it was not as difficult as imagined.
It only needs to build 500 residential houses, 2 canteens, 10 toilets and 1,000 mu of arable land.
It just corresponds to eating, drinking and sleeping.
As for difficult tasks.
Su Mo stared at it for a while, but hadn't thought of how to complete the challenge given by the system yet.
It is not difficult to participate in a war of 10,000 people. When the homeless invaded before, the game also reminded that this was a war of 100,000 people.
But the difficulty lies in the fact that the system requirements must be the identity of the "main force".
Fortunately, there is no requirement to win, and there may be room for manipulation.
Some greedily glanced at the 'primary complete production line option' in the reward, Su Mo closed the panel.
Calculated according to the current task rewards, only 20 difficult tasks are needed to make up the progress of the version upgrade.
Refresh once a month, that is a year and a half.
Of course, this has to be the case that all the difficult tasks generated every month have been completed.
As for the final challenge task.
Soma did not force this item, but planned to let it develop naturally.
Three months is not a short time, and there is no rush for this moment.
Now Kevin and Liehu in the league are somewhat willing to believe in him, and only the old guy Aldridge is left.
But it is believed that Liehu and Kevin are not willing to respect him as the leader of the alliance so easily.
You have to wait for a good opportunity.
Go up to the basement level.
As soon as the door was opened, another gust of cold wind blew through, which was in stark contrast to the warmth of the previous days.
But looking at the guards huddled in the cold wind in the distance, Su Mo nodded thoughtfully, with a direction in his mind.
perhaps
Will the coming cold winter be a good opportunity?
