Light green light overflowed from the fingertips and quickly smeared on the three empty bottles.
The first is the least expensive condensate extractor.
There is not much complicated structure, the upgrade just slightly modified the bottle mouth, turning it into a funnel shape.
The head of the funnel is covered with a layer of plastic cloth, exposing a small opening to collect water vapor.
Next is the simple water collector.
Three small metal sticks are assembled and welded above the mouth of the bottle, and a white rope is pulled down from the joint by the mouth of the bottle.
A white absorbent bag hangs from the end of the rope to absorb free water vapor and form water droplets.
The shape and structure of both are very simple.
It's the kind of level where you can reproduce it just by looking at it a few times, as long as you have the materials.
But when it comes to the 'Adventurer' water generator, the structure suddenly becomes complicated.
Green light lingers.
The black powder gathers layer by layer and rolls into a barrel shape, tending to the shape of a thermos cup.
Then the material of the bottle began to change, from PE material to special metal material.
With a snapping sound, the joints were tightly connected.
The green light was withdrawn, and the plastic bottle of Nongfu Spring suddenly turned into a pure black thermos cup.
"Done so quickly?"
Sumo let out a sigh and reached out to take the thermos cup.
It's heavy, weighing at least a pound, and feels full of texture.
When you unscrew the cup lid, the cup mouth and cup body are integrated, with no seams visible.
Look inside through the raised mouth of the cup.
Since there isn't much zero light in the tent, even if you have the 'eye of true seeing', you won't be able to see the structure inside.
After some inspection, I found a button under the cup.
When pressed, the bottom of the cup pops up, revealing a groove the size of a fingernail.
"This should be where the powder is placed."
Somo nodded slightly and paid five special survival points.
An illusory object began to solidify in the groove, and after a few seconds, a black fixed block was formed.
Push back the fixing block and the groove, and the ordinary thermos cup suddenly vibrates.
Swish.
It's like a stream rushing through the bottle, and traces of water molecules invisible to the naked eye quickly gather into the cup.
In less than a minute, the vibration disappeared.
A hint of sweet smell immediately escaped from the open mouth of the bottle.
"So fast?"
Sumo was shocked.
It is indeed the technology of the academy, and it is not an exaggeration to call it magic.
Except for the need for special powder every time to make water, there are almost no shortcomings. It is simply the best tool for walking in the wild.
"Go back and study it carefully. If you can decipher it, it will be much more convenient to use water for expeditions in the future!"
Somo shook the cup and could already hear the sound of water sloshing inside.
Looking up, the sweet fresh water gushes out and washes into the burning mouth.
It's like returning from hell to heaven!
The cold water slides through the mouth and moistens the throat. The instant comfort is like nectar sprinkled on the dry land, and every area is singing!
Continuing to rush down through the lung area and into the stomach, more and more pleasure feels like the soul is being washed.
The feeling of satisfaction that comes from the bottom of the heart makes people feel like they have been reborn!
"It's great! Come again!"
If you replenish water suddenly when you are dehydrated, the osmotic pressure of the extracellular fluid will instantly increase.
After drinking a cup of 500ml tons, the feeling of thirst is not relieved, but intensified.
However, now that you can get a refill at five o'clock, Somo naturally won't be stingy.
Pop out the groove, pour out the white slag powder inside, and embed new hard pieces.
The sound of running water sounded again, this time slightly slower than before.
It took about a minute and a half to complete the generation.
Another 500 ml went into the throat, and the uncomfortable hot feeling that made the whole body finally subsided.
But, it's not enough!
Spend five o'clock again, and the generation time will be longer.
After about four minutes, the sound of slowly flowing water disappeared.
At the same time, the feeling of dryness in the tent became more and more obvious, making it difficult to breathe.
"It seems that the same place is generated multiple times, which will also affect the efficiency."
Keeping this in mind, Soma raised his head and drank wildly again.
Don't stop until the game prompt sounds.
[Record]: The daily task ‘Survival and Minimum Living Living’ has been completed.
For other contestants, the extremely demanding task of drinking water was completed so easily.
Without any joy in his heart, Somo poured the remaining fresh water evenly into the other two collectors.
About three hundred milliliters.
After putting the water generator in his arms, he stood up and unzipped the tent.
at this time.
The three people in the distance were already lying on the ground, sleeping soundlessly to regain their strength.
But Qi Jie was still walking around the area faithfully, patrolling and guarding against any threats.
Even Sumo couldn't help but nod secretly when he saw this vigilance and willpower.
After all, if it were an experienced person, he would probably have slept to death on the ground like the three of them.
"Qi Jie."
Sumo lowered his voice and shouted.
Qi Jie, who was in the distance, heard the noise and quickly walked back.
From a distance, one could see a look of solemnity on his thin, red and swollen face.
During the patrol just now, Qi Jie was also busy thinking about how to make a water-fetching device out of empty bottles.
But no matter how you think about it, the current materials and environment cannot meet the basic conditions.
In addition, it took about twenty minutes. Even if the materials were enough, he didn't think it could be made in such a short time.
So, he also lowered his voice:
"Lord, are we short of materials?"
"No, let me patrol. You go in and take a rest."
Pointing to the inside of the tent, Somo coughed lightly, but his voice was not as hoarse as before.
rest?
Qi Jie was stunned for a moment, subconsciously preparing to refuse.
But when he turned around and saw what seemed to be some shiny and swaying liquid at the entrance of the tent, he was suddenly startled!
"Go in and don't let anyone know."
"yes!"
The so-called people are naturally not the three people sleeping in the distance, but the spectators hanging in the sky watching the battle.
Being able to produce water in such a short period of time is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Keep a low profile, that's right.
With joy and excitement, Qi Jie quickly lowered his body and nimbly got into the tent.
Follow Somo's example and zip up the tent, leaving only a small gap for light.
After making sure that no one could see in from the outside, Qi Jie used the only light to look at the objects on the ground.
"This is."
Seeing the two modified bottles on the ground, Qi Jie's eyes suddenly shrank.
He first carefully picked up the water collector on the left and tried the triangular frame on it with his fingers.
Feeling the solid feeling returned by touch, the already restless mood became even more agitated.
How can this be?
He didn't believe that Somo would enter the main game with a triangular iron frame that could just fit around the mouth of the bottle.
Moreover, the game will not allow players to bring such external items into the main game.
But
How did this come about?
Qi Jie was greatly puzzled.
But soon, his attention was attracted by the liquid sloshing in the collector.
"water?"
I put it to the mouth of the cup and smelled it. There was no peculiar smell.
Carefully tilt the bottle, and a trace of fresh water moistens the cracked lips.
Refreshing and sweet!
Qi Jie's eyes lit up and he quickly opened his mouth and took a small mouthful.
The water is quickly absorbed by the dry mouth, and the only body fluid flows down the throat.
A strong sense of relief came, like a bird that had broken free from its restraints and could soar freely in the blue sky.
It wasn't until the water in the collector hit the bottom that he suddenly came back to his senses.
"It's so comfortable!"
"carefree!"
More than 100 milliliters of water cannot satisfy the body's thirst for water after a day of walking in the desert.
But the hope coming from the bottom of my heart quickly focused my distracted spirit.
"Only two bottles, one more."
Qi Jie secretly guessed.
Although the two devices in front of me are beyond imagination, they are absolutely unable to generate hundreds of milliliters of water in such a short time.
Obviously, the missing one is the key.
However, thinking about this, Qi Jie's whole body became more and more relaxed.
From the time he traveled to the present, there are many things that cannot be explained about the human being Su Shen. This is nothing now.
Compared with the exaggerated Dongfeng missile, this water is simply worth mentioning!
"Follow the lord, you are right."
After thinking about this clearly, Qi Jie's originally anxious mood relaxed along with his body.
Pick up another water bottle next to you and drink the water inside.
He got up and walked out of the tent.
Seeing Somo not far away, the respectful expression on his face couldn't help but become stronger.
"Lord, do those two collectors need to be buried now?"
He was smart enough not to ask where the water came from, acting as if he was completely unaware.
"Just watch and do it, don't worry too much."
"It is a little different from ordinary devices. You will know it tomorrow."
"clear."
Qi Jie nodded, turned and left.
Watching his back go away, a flash of admiration flashed in Sumo's eyes.
If the territory is filled with smart people like Qi Jie, then it will be too easy to develop.
Compared to a seasoned man, compared to a male gunman.
Qi Jie, who has endured hardship, is obviously more proficient in the survival principles of surviving in the wasteland.
Withdrawing his gaze, Somo looked at the surrounding sand dunes.
Solving the drinking water problem has actually reduced the difficulty of desert survival by 70%.
Even if you don't eat a bite, the stored fat can last for nine days.
However, considering that the main race lasts for thirty days, fighting with alien races is inevitable after landing on Kirishima.
If you want to win the tripod, you must ensure your physical strength and combat power are maintained throughout the process.
"The next step is to find food and make fast-moving devices!"
Looking across the bare desert surrounding him, Somo suppressed the waves of hunger in his stomach.
It would be a huge desert without an oasis.
Along the way, not even the slightest shadow of wild plants or animals was seen.
This is obviously against common sense. We can't let the survivors go out relying only on the supplies provided by the merchants, right?
"so."
Turning over the map, Sumo focused on the terrain where the ups and downs didn't seem obvious.
Let go of those meaningless distorted lines.
About every 120 kilometers, a shallow straight line will appear on the ground, extending from the top of the desert to the bottom, dividing the two sides.
From left to right, there are about five lines, ending exactly at 600 kilometers.
"Are the conditions different in each section of the road?"
Sumo secretly guessed, but there was no way to verify this discovery right now.
We drove during the day and covered a total of about sixty kilometers.
There is still quite a distance to go before the terrain changes, and we won't be able to arrive until tomorrow evening at least.
Furthermore, terrain changes are not necessarily a good thing.
According to the rules of previous games, if food is provided, the difficulty will immediately increase.
"did not expect."
"I was not hungry when I traveled to the wasteland, but I am actually hungry in this race."
After confirming that it was impossible to find anything to eat around, Sumo was unwilling to waste his energy wandering around.
Wait until Qi Jie finishes burying two water collection devices in a hidden place.
After the two discussed keeping vigil with each other, Somo entered the tent first and fell asleep.
A night of silence.
Due to the different time difference between the main race and the outside world, when it dawns again in the desert, the wasteland outside has just entered dusk.
Many people curiously entered the arena to watch, but saw that the number of survivors had decreased.
The number of people decreased by 3 from 1,435 to 1,432.
"It's really unlucky. This guy can sprain his feet while walking in the desert. Is it true?"
"It's okay to say that my sprained feet are unlucky because I suffered from heat stroke. I could still hold on, but I didn't expect that the game would directly determine that my life was in danger and I would be removed."
"Sprained feet, heatstroke? Isn't this too serious?"
"Haha, the person I was watching was even more outrageous. He probably guessed that he might not be able to find food in a short period of time during the main match, so he should have eaten a lot before coming in, but he didn't expect that the first place was a desert, and he walked not far away.
He had vomiting and diarrhea and was removed."
"Unlucky, unlucky, we humans will lose three people if we don't make it to the finals."
"There is no way, not any route can help in such a difficult environment."
In nearby areas, players watching the battle can communicate without restrictions.
Everyone was chatting with each other, and soon they were passing on information via relay and chatting on the World Channel.
I saw the news about the human Su Shen.
"The latest news, Su Shen is very stable here. I saw last night that he had made two water-fetching devices!"
"Is it true or false? How did you make it? Do you have any good friends to share?"
"I didn't see the specific operation. It was done in a windproof tent, but I'm sure you can make the device. It's the simplest temperature difference water dispenser."
"Windproof tent? Damn it, where did you get this good thing?"
"There are tent merchants who sell them. You can exchange them with your points from the competition, but this water collection device cannot be exchanged. I don't know what Su Shen is made of?"
"I'm not very optimistic about the water extraction efficiency of this device. The temperature difference in the desert seemed very small last night. It only dropped to 25 degrees and then stopped. This does not provide the conditions for water extraction."
"That's right, this desert is different from ordinary deserts. It seems that we still need to find an oasis."
The number of spectators in each area is limited, and the "war reporters" on the front line convey the news as much as possible.
Since the lowest lens can only be maintained at fifty meters, everyone can only rely on the few flashback lenses provided by the game to see when the first device was put down.
It is a very simple temperature difference collector that many people have made by themselves.
Therefore, when the temperature difference is not large, almost no one is optimistic that the collector can successfully obtain fresh water.
But at this moment, the World Channel suddenly became lively.
"Get up, get up, latest news, Su Shen has gotten up!"
"It's only five o'clock in the morning in the desert. I haven't slept for a few hours. Can I recover my strength?"
"The temperature is low in the morning, so it's comfortable while traveling. You know what to do, don't sleep until noon without dying of heat!"
"Su Shen's men have already gone to see where the device was buried yesterday. I wonder how efficient it is?"
"Wait, there seems to be water?"
"Damn, there really is water, and damn, the bottle on the left is at least half full, right?"
