Before this, even the crazy snowfall from before had not condensed dark clouds like today.
There was no weather forecast, nor the ability to predict blizzards. Relying on his instinct, Su Mo felt that something was wrong.
It happened to be another sunny day today. Some of the snow had begun to melt. Once the temperature dropped the following day, they would turn into solid ice.
At that time, even a well-equipped yer like Su Mo would find it extremely difficult to go outdoors, let alone the others.
“I hope... the blizzard will arriveter, otherwise it will be a nightmare if things go on like this!”
.
Putting away the worry in his heart, he drove Earth Tiger onto the high stone tform. Su Mo then crawled underneath to overhaul the lower chassis of the car.
From below, Su Mo could see the collision marks caused by gravel and stones during his previous trip.
“The chassis needs to be polished tomorrow, and it’s best to reinforce the car as a whole. Otherwise, the car will simply be scrap metal after a few trips into the wastnd!”
After climbing out from the shallow recess, Su Mo directed the three little ones to enter the passageway door. He turned off the lights outside, closed the heavy stone door, and the world became quiet again.
To an extent, the daily activities he carried out provided a constant sense of security and familiarity.
Big Spark and Little Spark walked around the passageway curiously, cooing from time to time as if they had discovered a new world.
Although Oreo was also very curious, she insisted on walking behind Su Mo and guarding him loyally.
“Okay, okay! Don’t have your guard up too much while we’re home. Rx!”
Lowering his body, Su Mo picked up Oreo and strode forward.
After upgrading the shelter, this was the first time that the three little ones returned home from the outside. Naturally, they would be curious about the changes.
Inside thepletely changed base, the three-story design, various partitions, and bright lights above.
All of these had a strong visual impact on wastnd creatures.
Putting Oreo down, Su Mo opened the freezer that contained the frozen food and cut out two catties of beef from it.
“Wastnd, Month 1, Day 17; an auspicious day. Today we havepletely redesigned the interior of the shelter. Celebration meal: beef dumplings!”
“We’ll have a luxurious meal today, I must pick two bulbs of garlic to celebrate!”
Ceremoniously recording this chapter in the diary, Su Mo felt happy and strode to the crop culture room with the “perfect” excuse.
Finding the two greenest garlic sprouts in the best growth state, Su Mo carefully stretched out his hands and uprooted them.
The time that had passed was too short. Despite the eleration ability of the culture medium, the garlic was still about one-third smaller than the normal-sized ones, and the garlic cloves were also very tender.
However, for Su Mo at the moment, these were enough!
Smelling the earthy aroma of fresh garlic, garlic sprouts, and the smell of fresh vegetables, Su Mo’s saliva flowed as he hurried back over to the stove.
He quickly mixed and rolled the flour, chopped the beef, and added various seasonings ordingly. Then he cut two garlic sprouts into pieces and added them to the dumpling filling.
While the water boiled, he made dumplings; Su Mo’s hands operated quickly as he multitasked.
Wood fire did not boil water quickly. When the water in the pot came to a roiling boil, Su Mo looked at the dumplings on the chopping board and tossed them into the pot with a sense of aplishment. At the same time, he poured some vegetable oil into the pot next to him and began to prepare the chili oil.
Smelling the scorching spiciness, and the sweetness of dumplings cooked in psychic energy water, Su Mo forcibly suppressed his inner desires and began to make the dipping sauce.
One catty of beef was sliced ??into thin slices, while the other catty was wrapped inside the dumplings. The chili oil had a touch of vinegar, a little soy sauce and some sugar to bnce the vors.
Picking up a cooked dumpling with his chopsticks, he dipped it into the sauce. The smell of thebination was amazing!
Putting it into his mouth, Su Mo bit into the dumpling skin lightly, savoring the taste. The next moment, the juice exploded in his mouth along with the dipping sauce, directly elevating his taste buds into heaven.
“Ah, it’s delicious!”
Seeing that the three little ones were already frantically running around impatiently, Su Mo strained out all the dumplings and distributed them. Sitting in front of the stove, he took a bite of a dumpling and ate it with a piece of garlic. Su Mo was full of joy.
Eating meat without garlic cuts out half its fragrance.
At this time, the dumplings were served with garlic, withrge slices of beef garnished with the dipping sauce. The taste and feeling were simply sublime.
The spicy dipping sauce, the chewiness of beef, the deliciousness of dumplings, and the bright electric lights overhead.
In the shelter, Su Mo seemed to have returned to the civilized world. It was as if he was sitting at home during the New Year, the whole family happily eating dumplings and watching the Spring Festival G.
Listening to Yue Yunpeng’s crosstalk on the stage,ining about magic acts that were full of loopholes, and the unforgettable night that would never be absent...
“There are three days left...”
Seeing the three little heads gorging themselves on their food, Su Mo shook his head, and the excitement he had from before disappeared.
Staring at the shape of dumplings, and thinking about the meaning of Chinese dumplings, Su Mo only felt a sour sensationing from his eyes.
“I wonder how dad and mom are doing, and whether my little sister is eating well. There are four or five days left before the new year, sigh...”
These days, Su Mo had been forcing himself to remain busy to forget the current life and death situation of his parents and sister.
At this time, even though the delicious dumplings were still releasing their aroma, Su Mo felt a little bit dispirited and lost his appetite.
After ending dinner hastily and scrubbing off the stove, he took out the GF personal hygiene products that he obtained in the morning and washed up.
Even though there were electric lights to assist him in working through the night, Su Mo chose to return to the small bed. He turned on themp, andid down quietly.
Oreo seemed to sense that Su Mo was in a bad mood too, as she ran over obediently andid next to the bed quietly.
Human beings had emotions, which were beautiful, but also heavy.
Su Mo was not a person who was easily dismayed or frustrated. It was just that, at this moment, in this safe shelter, before the uing blizzard, he just wanted to rest well.
“They wille! Mom and Dad! Sister! They will definitely be here!”
Looking at the ceiling, Su Mo’s gaze seemed to prate the wall and traveled out toward the sky covered by the dark clouds outside.
The icy cold wind gradually began to sweep across the wastnd, which waspletely different from therge temperature drop during the day...
It was finallying!
There were three days left. After midnight on that final day, the blizzard disaster would arrive.
These three consecutive days of blizzard would be like a sharp knife that ughtered humans in the wastnd.
Sitting on the bed and feeling depressed, Su Mo also lost his usual desire to browse the World Channel before bed. He turned to take Kento Maeda’s possessions from the storage space to examine them.
The feather in the daytime had solved his shelter’s venttion problem. Kento Maeda was like the selfless sun; even though he was gone, he was still giving out light to “warm” others.
At this time, among all the items, there were only three valuable things.
A hardback notebook containing his diary, and...
Two maps, onerge and one small, what was recorded remained unknown.
Putting the maps aside, Su Mo sat up and began to look at this unique “diary” under the soft light of the bedsidemp.
In the civilized era, which serious person would write a diary?
However, after arriving in the wastnd, everyone seemed to have mysteriously caught this habit.
Like Magoo, Maeda also chose to write his diary in a notebook, and the handwriting was extremely neat.
With the aid of the game panel’s trantion function, the Japanese characters were directly tranted into Chinese ones and disyed in front of Su Mo.
The diary began its records from the fifth day but, at the beginning, Kento Maeda carefully supplemented the records of the previous few days together with other important information.
Reading it carefully, the message on the pages seemed to have brought Su Mo into the perspective of God.
Before Kento Maeda traversed the wastnd, he used to be the boss of a boxing gym from Japan. He recruited some rogues to teach boxing in the gym and liked to bully people daily andmit crimes. Relying on the protection of the boxers employed under him, it was enough to survive in the backstreets.
Japan was not big, but the gap between the rich and the poor was quite big. The people who kept goodpany got better, and the people who kept badpany naturally got worse.
From the beginning, Maeda had written the words... “always a step quicker” more than once in his notebook
From a person who could control the gangsters under his boxing gym, to bing a person living on the wastnd, gathering up a group of followers, Maeda also had a weak protagonist temte.
Looking through the diary of the past few days, Su Mo read with a clenched fist about the reason why Maeda was able to mix with the kobolds.
There were only a handful of kobolds initially, about fifty people, and they were much weaker than the rat and lion ns next to them.
In such an environment, Kento Maeda perceptively discovered the huge potential of the fireball!
He chose to join the weakest force and brought the technology of gunpowder into the world of kobolds.
Sulfur... was beside the rat n’s camp.
At night, taking a huge risk, Kento Maeda managed to dig out a few catties of ores. It was this risky move that made the kobolds gradually believe him!
Madly creating gunpowder, crazily attacking when there was only a small number of kobolds in the early stages, Maeda led the kobolds and killed no less than 50 human beings ced nearby and finally met the first summoning condition.
At this time, the kobold n, which originallyprised fifty people, suddenly expanded to 100; gaining the ability to challenge the rat n of 400 people.
In their first battle, only 9 soldiers’ lives were lost. The kobolds defeated the strong rat n and obtained the super summoning opportunity, allowing 2,000 of them to be summoned over!
What is this concept?
Watching Kento Maeda express his shock more than once at the arrival of the alien race in his diary, Su Mo seemed to have been transported in his mind to the grand summoning ceremony, watching each kobold walk out one after another.
“It turns out that the castle was also summoned. Like I said, such a tall building, how could it have possibly been built in such a short time!”
“Huh? Maeda instructed Marshall to secretly record the structure of the kobold castle? Could it be that there is something valuable in the castle!”
Reading up to the seventh day of the diary, from what he wrote down when Kento Maeda summed up the gains and losses of that day, Su Mo took out two maps and did the guesswork.
The big map, judging from the crooked straight lines, was a hand-drawn map!
“My goodness, the structures and distribution of the kobolds in the castle had been figured out by these people!”
The records on the map were extremely detailed. Even if it was limited by Marshall’s ability, and some ces were not clearly stated, Su Mo could see the structure of the castle in detail.
Besides that, on the right side of the fourth floor, Su Mo also saw a ce marked in red with big characters written on it:
“Treasure Room!”
“My goodness, this ce should be the ce used by the kobolds to collect treasures from the outside. ording to this, it is very likely that theser tool from the thermal weaponser manufacturing machine is inside here, and the safehouse core that disappeared under Magoo’s body may also have been taken back with them!”
After getting some clues about the two missing items, Su Mo’s heart suddenly became excited. He kept the diary and the other map and began to study the weak defenses of the kobold castle.
Compared to the castle designed by humans, the structure of the Kobold castle was notplicated, and there were many weak points that were clear to the untrained eye.
“Unfortunately, it is as difficult as climbing the sky to enter the castle. Unless all the kobolds are moved away from the mountain, or if most of the kobolds leave the castle, perhaps then there would be a chance for me to enter!”
After looking at it for a while and suppressing the thought of directly breaking in, Su Mo felt a trace of sleepiness. He retracted the map,id on the small bed, turned off themp, and fell asleep peacefully.
Beside him, Oreo sensed the recovery of Su Mo’s mood. She went back outside assuredly andid down with Big Spark and Little Spark.
However... their sleep was destined to notst until dawn!
When Su Mo was still fast asleep in the middle of the night, Oreo’s manic barking resounded through the shelter and, in an instant, Su Mo was awakened.
“Is there an enemy?”
Oreo shook her head, but the uncontroble mania on her expression was extremely obvious, and it seemed that something important was happening.
Getting up quickly and walking briskly to themand center, Su Mo quickly turned on the light, and then switched on the old TV, and started to check the shelter’s surroundings.
Taking a look at the scene outside, Su Mo was stunned!
At the moment, the sky outside seemed to be burning. It was originally dark andte at night, but presently, half of it was reflected in fiery red!
It was exactly the sign of a massive fire burning in the sky!
