Don't Starve, my pickaxe can be upgraded

Chapter 109 Snow in the Night Fog World
'Village building mode?'

Liu Hen took a deep breath: "And I can actually farm? Could it be that food can be diversified?"

But... where do the crop seeds come from?

It seems that I don’t have any crop seeds at all.

"By the way, Hongming should have..."

As the former owner of Green Cloud City, and someone who happens to have the ability to cultivate plants, he should have crop seeds.

"Are you okay?" Chang Xin's voice sounded in her ears.

Liu Hen came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "I'm fine. By the way, ask your subordinates if anyone is familiar with the route and how far it is from here to Luxia City."

Although Hong Ming is the lord of Lvxia City, he may not be more familiar with the route than those modified humans.

"I'll go ask." Chang Xin turned and left.

"Zong Ni, distribute the clothes. Give everyone who has nothing to wear a warm coat."

Liu Hen built a foundation on the spot, took out the bronze-level storage cabinet, and took out the warm clothes inside.

"Okay." Zong Ni quickly asked someone to help distribute it.

Many people's clothes were suddenly torn before, and to make matters worse, the seasons changed, and now many people have been frostbitten.

Liu Hen was not idle either. He took out a workbench on the spot and started making some special types of thermal clothing.

Because there are some young children and elderly people who are extremely thin. If the thermal clothing is not the right size, it will not fit the skin automatically when they put it on, and it is difficult to keep them warm.

He wanted to make some small-sized warm clothes for the children. They didn't need pants, boots or other modules. As long as they had the warm clothes, it would be enough for them to survive.

By the time he filled the gap, Chang Xin also came back.

"The route we took before almost formed a triangle with Luxia City. This means that it is at least eight hundred miles from here to Luxia City." She said solemnly.

"Eight hundred miles..."

Liu Hen murmured.

This distance is actually not too far. They were two hundred kilometers away from the Bronze Dragon Camp, which is about four hundred miles, and it only took them three days to complete the journey.

But the situation is completely different now, because the cold season has arrived, and even if you wear warm clothes to maintain your body temperature, there will definitely be other obstacles.

"Are you sure it's 800 miles, not 800 kilometers?" he confirmed.

"Yes, I've confirmed it." Chang Xin nodded affirmatively. Although the inhabitants of the wasteland were almost all illiterate, she would not make a mistake in this kind of common sense.

"Then..."

Liu Hen was just about to say that they would continue on their way, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of some tiny particles flying in the cold wind out of the corner of his eye.

His eyes focused, and he reached out to pick up a few of those particles and put them in front of his eyes to look at them carefully.

"Is this... snowflakes?" He was puzzled. How could it snow in the foggy night world?
"Isn't it normal to snow when the cold season comes?" Hong Ming looked at Liu Hen with a strange expression.

"Snowflakes should be condensed from evaporated water, right?"

Liu Hen asked in return: "Will the water in the Night Fog World also evaporate?"

Moreover, the condensation temperature of snowflakes should be between -0 and 1 or 2 degrees, right?
If it was going to rain, it should have rained a long time ago. Why is it raining now?
"Is this how snowflakes are born? This is the first time I've heard of it."

Hong Ming was surprised, then explained, "Anyway, in the places I've visited over the past three years, some are covered in magma, with volcanic eruptions and water vapor rising all the time. You're wondering where the water comes from, right? I think it has something to do with those places."

"Lava everywhere?"

Liu Hen reacted and felt that his thinking was limited by the scientific theories of his previous life.

That’s right, this world is a world with supernatural powers. Even if there is no sun, the special places are still special.

Perhaps the source of heat in this world is not the sun at all.

In a world with supernatural powers, nothing is surprising.

"How old are you? How many seasonal changes have you experienced?" He looked at Hong Ming.

"I'm seventy-two this year, but I'm still young. People with special abilities can live a long time."

Hong Ming, who looked like a middle-aged man, argued for a moment, then said, "I've experienced four cold seasons. Aside from one special one... well, that was the last one, it snowed the other three times."

Well, it seems that snowing in the Night Fog World is normal.

Liu Hen breathed a sigh of relief, but now it was not suitable to continue on the journey.

Because there were more and more snowflakes, the increase was visible to the naked eye, and not only they saw it, but others saw it too.

In this howling cold wind, even if you wear warm clothes to maintain your body temperature and prevent it from being taken away by the cold wind, the increasingly strong wind can blow away thinner people.

In this situation, it is not suitable to continue on the journey.

"Let's find a place to stay first."

Liu Hen put away all his things, looked around, called Zhang Mianmian over and asked her to show him the way.

After figuring out the direction, he spoke again: "Go in the direction of Green Cloud City and stop when you come across a good place."

Because this time he might stay for a long time, he didn't want to settle for it like before.

Hong Ming had no decision-making power, and Chang Xin listened completely to Liu Hen, so no one protested at all.

So the migrating team continued on their way, moving forward against the howling cold wind and the increasingly heavy snow.

"rumble……"

There was a faint sound of collapse coming from behind, clearly the chain reaction of collapse hadn't ended yet. He wondered how big a hole that damned bronze dragon had dug underground.

After losing its load-bearing capacity, it was fine at first, but because too many people suddenly appeared on the ground, the first collapse occurred, and then things got out of control.

"Black Stone, sense carefully. If there is no copper mine underground, tell me." Liu Hen said to the little Black Stone that followed him like a shadow.

"Yes, yes, sir." Little Black Stone nodded, carefully sensing the distribution of copper mines deep in the earth.

The copper reserves here are indeed large. Although most of them have been transferred away by the copper dragon, there are still many in the surrounding mountains, but they are too scattered.

"Ah..." Suddenly someone shouted from behind, and the man was suddenly swept up by a whirlwind.

People nearby quickly grabbed him and prevented him from being blown away.

"This wind..."

Liu Hen frowned secretly.

"Sir, there is a demonic aura." Little Black Stone suddenly reminded.

Everyone around who heard this changed their expression slightly.

As Xiao Heishi finished speaking, a faint purple light appeared in the darkness ahead, like two huge purple pupils.

A creepy demonic aura swept over.

"It found us!"

Liu Hen said in a deep voice: "Chang Xin, Hong Ming, all of you release your auras, otherwise it will treat us as food that can be taken at will."

"...Will this work?" Hong Ming hesitated.

Chang Xin didn't pause at all. She released her aura directly, and a silver-white light bloomed on her body. She slowly flew up and looked into the purple pupils in the distance.

Seeing this, Hong Ming had no choice but to grit his teeth, take out the small tree he had put away before, throw it on the ground, and directly control it to grow bigger.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of branches turned into a long dragon, swaying slowly in the howling cold wind.

Liu Hen took out the bonfire without hesitation and lit it with just a thought.

The bonfire instantly caught fire, the flames rising more than one meter high, dispelling the darkness while also starting to fight against the demonic power.

This bonfire is very magical. Even though the cold wind is howling and can blow people away, the flames remain indifferent and sway freely, as if they are not in the same space as the wind.

The two huge purple pupils in the distance suddenly shrank a little. Although the true form of the demon could not be seen, everyone could guess that it was squinting.

Perhaps because he was intimidated, or perhaps because he was afraid of the magical bonfire, the other party did not rush over immediately.

'By the way, the bonfire can be upgraded.'

Liu Hen's heart moved and he looked at the upgrade materials for the bonfire.

"Ten large logs and a hundred magic crystals? Not much."

He used these materials to upgrade the campfire without hesitation.

This time the upgrade takes one hour, which is longer than the constant temperature level.

However, considering that this bonfire has already reached the maximum level of constant temperature, if it is upgraded to the next level, it will become an energy bonfire, so he accepted this upgrade time.

Fortunately, the demon might not be hungry, or it might be really afraid of them. Its two huge purple pupils stayed in the darkness for half a minute, then slowly moved around and soon disappeared into the darkness in the distance.

"Can it really scare you away?"

Hong Ming was a little surprised, because he felt that the demon was not weak, at least it was in the fourth realm, or even the fifth realm.

If a fight breaks out, it is hard to say who will win or lose, because Liu Hen's magical bonfire does not seem to be as effective in restraining demons as it is in restraining monsters.

"Just leave."

Chang Xin fell back to the ground and looked at Liu Hen: "Do we want to continue on our journey?"

"Go on, let's get away from this area that may collapse at any time."

Liu Hen tried to put away the campfire and found that it could indeed be put away, but after putting it away, the upgrade countdown would be interrupted.

However, there is a demon nearby, and it is hard to say whether the demon has gone far away.

In addition, the ground here is not solid. Who knows if the underground is also empty?

So he resisted the idea of ​​raising the campfire to energy level right here and continued to move forward with the migrating team.

During this process, everyone looked nervous and wary of the demon from before.

Finally, as late night was approaching, they arrived at a place seven or eight kilometers away from the collapse area.

Liu Hen asked Xiao Heishi to carefully sense the ground. After confirming that there was no huge cavity underground, he asked people to look for a place to shelter from the wind nearby.

Unfortunately, although this is a mountainous area, the terrain is relatively flat and there is no place that can truly shelter from the wind.

In the end, they only found a valley where the wind was relatively weak, at least not strong enough to blow people away.

At this time, the wind and snow were very strong, and the ground was covered with a thin layer of snow. It would not be long before the ground would be covered with thick snow.

In this situation, it is no longer possible to continue long-distance migration.

"This is it."

Seeing that the terrifying cold night was about to arrive, Liu Hen made a decision: "We'll figure out the silver mine issue later. Let's settle down here first. There are some scattered copper mines nearby, which can be considered a resource area."
