Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

Mo Ming's heart clenched; a deep blue-level ferocious beast was approaching the sanctuary!

What to do? Should we abandon the shelter and run away with the supplies and pets? Anyway, the shelter can be rebuilt. As long as we're alive, we can always rebuild.

But this is a specially upgraded shelter. If I rebuild it, can it still be specially upgraded?

Mo Ming was uncertain.

Even when faced with an overwhelming force, Mo Ming was unwilling to give up the shelter he had painstakingly built.

With a bunker, pets, and yourself, can you put up a fight?

Mo Ming quickly estimated his own combat strength in his mind, but soon dismissed the idea.

He couldn't take that risk. Putting aside the possibility of being wiped out, even if they were lucky enough to win, their side would definitely suffer heavy losses, and he couldn't bear to do that.

Just as he was struggling with this dilemma, the blue dot on the radar gradually moved away from the shelter until it disappeared from view.

Seeing it return, I breathed a sigh of relief; the crisis was temporarily averted.

Mo Ming set aside enough meat for himself, and gave the rest to Xiong Da, Xiong Er, and Xiao Jin. The Golden Horned Sky Beetle family doesn't eat meat, so they didn't get any this time.

Back in his bedroom, Mo Ming brought in the security radar for real-time monitoring, but he wasn't going to get a good night's sleep that night.

Beep beep!

Song Yufei: Mo Ming, I'm done here. How are things on your end?

Mo Ming: I just finished too.

Song Yufei: Wow, you just casually passed the top grade?

Mo Ming: Sigh...

Song Yufei: What's wrong? You're not happy even though you defeated the top-tier beast tide?

Mo Ming: Let's talk about it on video.

The video call connected, and seeing that stunningly beautiful face on the screen, all the inexplicable worries seemed to disappear for a moment. However, soon, that worried expression reappeared in her eyes.

"What's wrong? It's not common to see such an emo expression on your face."

"I... might have to run away."

"Run away? The Jiangnan Leather Factory has gone bankrupt?"

“I’m not kidding, a… Deep Blue-level beast has appeared near my shelter.”

"Hey, what did I think it was? It's just Deep Blue... wh... what is that? A Deep Blue-level beast?"

"Yeah, that's right."

"Then how come you're still alive and well?"

Can't you wish me well for once?

"Hehe, just kidding!"

Then, Mo Ming told Song Yufei about the situation near the lake and the return of the deep blue-level beast.

Song Yufei also fell silent, and the two of them stared at each other for a long time.

"You said you had a secret weapon, what is it? Can it deal with a Deep Blue-level beast?"

Mo Ming suddenly thought of something, as if he had grasped a lifeline.

But Song Yufei's next words disappointed him once again.

"My secret weapon is actually an Emerald-level sanctuary shield, which can withstand multiple attacks from Emerald-level beasts. A Deep Blue-level shield probably won't work, and it's already bound to my own sanctuary, so I can't lend it to you."

"Okay~ I'll think of something else. If all else fails, we'll just have to abandon the shelter."

"How about I lend you one of my cannons?"

"What is that? A cannon? Is it the kind I think it is?"

Song Yufei enjoyed seeing Mo Ming's incredulous expression, giggling incessantly, and then sent Mo Ming a screenshot of the cannon's information.

[Iron Cannon: Emerald Class]

Introduction: Where's my Italian cannon? It's right here...

"Holy crap! Hey girl, why don't you take care of me? I don't want to work hard anymore."

"Hehe, then this young lady will have to think about it carefully..."

"You found this when you opened the box?"

"Uh, no, I found a gold resource box a few days ago, but it was only level 1. However, the blueprint for this cannon came from there."

"Level 1? That's a gold resource chest, I've never even seen one before!"

“Can it be mass-produced?”

"At present, it is not easy. Manufacturing cannons requires a lot of black iron and fine steel, and cannonballs also require a lot of gunpowder and saltpeter. These things are quite difficult to obtain."

I've been working frantically these past few days, and I've only managed to build two statues and carry out 12 shells.

Mo Ming was disappointed again. The lifeline he had just grasped had been broken. If he could build a dozen or so cannons, he might not be without a fighting chance against the deep blue-level beasts.

Unfortunately, as Song Yufei said, putting aside fine steel and black iron for the time being, gunpowder and saltpeter can only be found in special places, and Mo Ming has not heard of any such things, let alone in large quantities.

However, Mo Ming still made a note of it and planned to keep an eye on the trading platform later, just in case!

"Alright, stop being so dramatic. There's always a way out, and things will work themselves out!"

Hearing Song Yufei's words of comfort, Mo Ming suddenly realized that the results of the monster siege event would be announced soon, and perhaps the rewards would contain the key to solving the problem!

How could I forget about this? With such a massive monster siege this time, the rewards must be pretty good. There might even be some deep blue-level treasures!

Thinking of this, Mo Ming's face immediately relaxed a lot.

"You're right. I didn't realize you cared about me so much."

"Get lost, stop being so conceited. Who cares about you?"

"I see!"

"You know nothing."

Hahaha, why is your face red?

"That's from being roasted over a fire. I'm not talking to you anymore, it's almost time, hang up!"

Before Mo Ming could speak, the video abruptly cut off, and Song Yufei hung up the call in a flash.

"This little girl can blush? Hahahaha..." After teasing Song Yufei a couple of times, Mo Ming's mood improved considerably.

the other side.

"You bastard, you just wait! Humph! Who cares about you? I'd rather you were dead!"

Song Yufei, puffing out her cheeks, put her hands on her hips and unleashed a torrent of anger at the stove.

......

[Time's up! Monster Siege event has ended!]

Congratulations to the remaining 5520938476 survivors who successfully survived the Monster Siege event!

More than 10 billion people died at once. Even movies wouldn't dare to depict something like that, right? Keep in mind that before the monsters attacked the city, the survivors had generally developed some ability to protect themselves, and the shelters were relatively stable.

But before that night, no, in just one hour, more than a billion people were wiped out, which shows how ferocious the beasts are in the misty world!

[The following is a breakdown of the player distribution across the four difficulty levels.]

[Category A: 10,000 people]

[Level B: One million people]

[Category C: One hundred million people]

[Level D: All remaining people]

[The scoring criteria will be announced next: the evaluation will be based on factors such as the difficulty of the draw, the performance, and the extent of damage to the shelter.]

The top 1% of participants in each level will receive an S-rank reward for that level.

The top 20% of participants in each level will receive the corresponding Level A reward.

The top 50% of participants in each level will receive a Level B reward corresponding to that level.

The top 70% of participants in each level will receive a C-level reward for that level.

The bottom 30% of people in each level will receive the corresponding level's D-grade reward.

[Rewards cannot be combined; only one reward per person!]

The results of the evaluation are as follows.

The greater the reward, the greater his chances of saving the shelter; this may be his last hope of doing so.

Mo Ming stared at his screen with anticipation. He dared not be sure or expect that he could rank in the top 1%. He was afraid that the final result would be unsatisfactory and he would fall into disappointment again, or rather, despair.

[Congratulations to the survivor for ranking in the top 1% of the Monster Siege event and receiving a Grade A S reward]
