Ahhhhh, high-altitude survival!

Chapter 9, "Peashooter" Makes a Great Contribution

A moment later, a conspicuous spot appeared on the previously neatly arranged grass.

? !

This Peashooter is too fragile! Lin Yue stared at the spot where the Peashooter disappeared and mourned for three seconds.

I'm so sorry! You didn't get bitten to death by a zombie, but you were accidentally broken by your own people!

For someone with a slight case of OCD, the absence of a single plant in a neat row is extremely jarring. Lin Yue glanced at the energy display in the upper left corner, which showed a high of 900, so she didn't hesitate to buy a new "Peashooter" and replant it.

After planting, Lin Yue realized that she had just done something foolish.

Pea shooters can only be taken from the grass because they have to wait for the Peashooter to shoot them, but the Peashooter herself doesn't need to dig them up from the grass; she can simply buy a new one and take it directly.

Lin Yue spent another 100 energy points to buy a new "Peashooter" and took it out. This time she succeeded. The "Peashooter" was as easy as a small pea, and Lin Yue took it out with ease.

She looked at the data panel, and the mental strength column had changed to 20/120.

So, retrieving a "Peashooter" requires 100 points of mental energy, the same as the energy cost of purchasing it. Is there some underlying connection here?

Since she didn't have enough mental energy to try another plant, Lin Yue kept the question in mind for now, and then put away the "Peashooter" in her hand to check its attributes.

["Pea Shooter" (Normal): An intelligent long-range weapon capable of accurately striking pre-set targets within 10 meters. It is equipped with 50 rounds, each dealing 20 damage.]

Make big money!

一颗子弹就是20点伤害,50颗可有1000点。自己的力量才3点,想要造成1000点伤害可不是件容易的事。

Moreover, even without considering attack power, normally 100 points of mental energy can only take out 10 peas, but now it's a full 5 times more!

The system notification said that the first three days were a newbie protection period, and no danger would actively occur. Therefore, Lin Yue did not intend to rely on this "Peashooter" to attack anything, but instead focused on figuring out how to extract all fifty peas from it.

Given that the cartoon version of Lin Yue could easily break off a "Peashooter" but couldn't pull it up, this time Lin Yue didn't plant the "Peashooter" directly on the platform. Instead, she looked around, found an empty wooden box that she had just acquired, and placed the "Peashooter" on it.

The next second, the Peashooter quickly took root and stabilized on top of the wooden crate.

Immediately afterwards, its head, which resembled a hairdryer, began to move around nimbly, as if searching for its target.

Lin Yue moved the boxes, and the "Peashooter" was lifted up as well.

Great, that makes things much easier. You can choose any location to let it launch peas.

Lin Yue put the box down again, then leaned down slightly and reached out to grasp the moving "hair dryer nozzle" of the "Peashooter".

As if knowing she was its master, the Peashooter immediately stopped spinning, and a red icon appeared in front of Lin Yue's eyes. It was a circle with a small cross inside.

As a veteran mobile gamer who has been playing for many years, Lin Yue immediately recognized it as an aiming icon. This means that "Peashooter" allows players to set their own shooting direction.

She gently turned the "Peashooter's" head, and the icon moved accordingly. After roughly confirming its angle range, Lin Yue thought for a moment, moved the wooden box with the "Peashooter" planted in it to the center of the platform, and then pointed the cannon towards the sky.

"confirm."

As soon as she moved her hand away, the "Peashooter" impatiently let out a "poof—" and a large pea shot straight upwards.

Lin Yue held the net in her hand, her eyes fixed on the direction from which the large pea had been shot, intending to catch it when it fell back down after missing its target.

However, instead of seeing the falling peas, she heard a dull "bang." Then, a second and a third pea shot up.

What... did I hit?

Lin Yue squinted at the sky. Just then, several objects, of unknown origin, suddenly fell from the sky at great speed. Before Lin Yue could even swing her net, the objects splattered all over her face and body.

Caught off guard, Lin Yue staggered from the blow, and a -1 red light even emanated from her body. She quickly took a few steps back and used her hands to protect her head and face.

After waiting for a while and confirming that nothing new was falling and that the "Peashooter" next to her had quieted down again, Lin Yue cautiously stuck her head out to check the situation.

She discovered that what had just hit her were two tree branches, a rolled-up piece of paper, a bird's nest, and several pieces of wood.

(⊙o⊙)…So, did the "Peashooter" hit a random airdrop?

Curious, Lin Yue stepped forward and bent down to collect all the branches and wood chips on the ground. When she picked up the last piece of wood, Lin Yue was surprised to find that there was a lock hidden underneath it.

It's confirmed! It really was a random airdrop, and a locked one at that!

This lock must be the culprit that reduced her health by one!

Lin Yue picked up the lock and examined it.

[Puzzle: Requires a key; can be used to lock valuable items. Collect?]

Lin Yue thought for a moment, and since she didn't have a key, she simply chose to collect the data.

[Collection successful. Obtained 1 iron block and 1 experience point.]

Another useful material. Lin Yue put the iron block into her backpack with satisfaction. Then, her gaze turned to the other two items on the ground.

The blueprints looked unusual at first glance, and when Lin Yue actually held them in her hands and unfolded them, a surprising light flashed in her eyes.

【冷凝水提取器:当温度低于18度时,可以捕捉并收集空气中的蒸汽,冷凝后形成液体水,可饮用补充水分。需用工具台制作,所需材料为铁块*5(现有1)、塑料*3(现有0)、木炭*1(现有0)、布料*1(现有0)。当前不满足制造条件。】

Lin Yue was overjoyed. The stable water supply channel she had been longing for had finally appeared!

After carefully putting away the blueprints, Lin Yue couldn't help but look down and pat the "Peashooter" beside her. Well done, little guy! You've already done a great job since you came out!
