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

"Where did you get it?"

"It was dropped by monsters during the monster siege! Didn't you get any?"

"Stop talking, I want to cry."

"Hahaha."

"By the way, if you come across any teleportation array orbs in the shop, buy a few more; you might need them sometime."

"OK. You don't need to worry about the stone, I can take care of that for you."

"Okay, thank you! To express my gratitude, I'll give you a gift."

Upon hearing about the gift, Song Yufei's eyes immediately lit up.

"What gift?"

You'll find out soon enough.

As he spoke, Mo Ming teleported the lace pajama set to her.

Upon receiving the gift, Song Yufei's face immediately turned as red as an apple.

"You old rogue, you big pervert."

"Or you could..."

"Get out of here!"

Song Yufei hung up the phone in shame and anger.

Mo Ming couldn't stop smiling; this little girl was so cute!

After signing the partnership agreement with Song Yufei, Mo Ming felt inexplicably much lighter.

Perhaps it's because I've found a reliable partner.

The reason for this remains unknown, and he doesn't dwell on it.

The announcement mentioned that wild animals become exceptionally ferocious during the polar night.

However, it was not mentioned that there would be another beast tide. Mo Ming deduced that this time the beasts might only come from the area around the shelter, or they might have already emerged from the mist.

Therefore, during these seven days of polar daylight, Mo Ming's first priority is to ensure that no green-level wild beasts appear within three kilometers of the shelter.

As for areas beyond three kilometers, which are beyond the detection range of the protective radar, Mo Ming had no way to proceed.

After checking the guardian radar, Mo Ming discovered that the number of green dots that were originally only four had now increased to seven.

This indicates that new wild animals have entered this area from outside.

The seven beasts were positioned in four different locations.

Perfect timing! Now Mo Ming can stockpile a huge amount of resources.

He summoned Little Gold and Bear Big and Bear Two, as well as five Golden Horned Sky Bulls. Now, the two smaller ones have also reached the Emerald Green level. Mo Ming's team has a total of seven Emerald Green level beasts, and one Deep Blue level beast.

This lineup is probably among the top tier in the entire survivor community.

Drop drop!

The moment I stepped out of the territory, my bracelet beeped with a message notification.

Liu Heng: Bro, have you signed your partnership agreement yet? If not, let's sign one together!

Mo Ming: Sorry, Brother Liu, I've already signed it.

Liu Heng: Wow, that was fast! Looks like I'm a step too late, big brother, hahaha.

Mo Ming: A survivor I've known for a long time.

Liu Heng: Haha, it's okay, I'll go ask other people.

Mo Ming: Brother Liu, aren't you with your wife? Why are you signing with other people?

Liu Heng: That's right. Your sister-in-law's shelter has been abandoned, so if we're both tied to the same rating, it will definitely affect our ranking.

Liu Heng: So your sister-in-law told me to find another capable and reliable person to sign a partnership agreement, since we don't need this agreement to maintain our relationship anyway.

Mo Ming: I see. Sister-in-law is really smart. Well then, I wish Brother Liu finds a suitable business partner.

Mo Ming: But if you need any help, feel free to contact me anytime. I'll do my best to help.

Liu Heng: Alright!

Although there is no night under the polar day, in order to improve efficiency, Mo Ming plans to have the pets split into four groups.

Little Jin led one route, Xiong Da led another, Xiong Er led yet another, and he himself led the Golden Horned Sky Beetle the third.

Mo Ming specifically instructed his men that it would be best to capture the prey alive, but if that wasn't possible, they should be killed. However, they were not to eat the prey after it was killed; they were to stay where they were and wait for him to come over.

We can't let these wild animals waste so many treasures.

I don't know if it's because of the midnight sun, but for some reason the weather seems to have warmed up a bit.

But didn't the announcement say that super low temperatures could occur at any time during the polar day?

Why does it feel even warmer now?

Is this the calm before the storm?

Thinking of the possibility of extremely low temperatures at any moment, Mo Ming quickened his pace. He didn't want to be freezing outside when the extreme cold arrived.

……

Several hours passed, and Mo Ming's various armies had all finished their battles.

After this round of inventory, Mo Ming had collected a total of six wild animal carcasses.

Two wolves, a lynx, two pangolins, and a large snake.

To everyone's delight, Xiao Jin also managed to capture a live antelope, a white-striped antelope.

Next to the six beast carcasses, Mo Ming, incredibly lucky, also discovered two teleportation array orbs.

Mo Ming put all the spoils into his spatial ring, and Xiao Jin led the white-striped antelope back to the sanctuary.

Seemingly frightened by Xiao Jin, the white-striped antelope that entered the Beast King's Palace shrank into a corner, its eyes filled with terror.

The Beast King's Palace indicates that the taming time for the white-striped antelope is 8 hours.

Looking at the six beast carcasses, Mo Ming was at a loss for what to do, as he had absolutely no experience in dissecting wild animals.

There's nothing we can do; the decomposition function just suddenly and inexplicably stopped working!

He activated the bracelet, took photos of the six beast carcasses, and sent them to Liu Heng, asking him if he knew what to do with them.

Liu Heng: Holy crap, brother, you killed all of these people?

Mo Ming: Uh, to be precise, it's my pet. How could a lowly, pale yellow-level noob like me have that kind of strength?

Liu Heng: Awesome!

As expected of a survival expert, Liu Heng succinctly explained to Mo Ming how to dissect these wild beasts and which parts were most valuable.

Mo Ming was completely dumbfounded. Why was there such a huge difference between people?

In the original world, Liu Heng wasn't a butcher; he was a proper civil servant working for a state-owned enterprise.

These skills were all learned on my own.

But now it's clear that the gap between him and Liu Heng is not only in their own strength, but also in their survival skills, which are far beyond his reach.

Mo Ming made up his mind to improve his own qualities and not rely too much on his pets.

To forge iron, one must be strong oneself; one need no whip to spur one on.

After more than two hours of tireless effort, Mo Ming finally finished dissecting the animal carcasses.

A total of eight sharp, curved wolf teeth, eight wolf claws, two sets of wolf skins, ten wolf hairs, four lynx claws, one set of lynx skin, one set of snake skin, one snake gall, four snake teeth, ten pangolin teeth, 86 pangolin scales, and four pangolin claws were obtained.

Because the pangolin's scales were inexplicably removed, its fur was no longer intact.

Mo Ming didn't keep the remaining meat for himself; he threw it all to the heroes who had made this expedition.

The Golden Horned Longhorn Beetle family could only eat plant roots, wildflowers, and weeds around the shelter.

There's nothing we can do; they're vegetarians after all!

Mo Ming then exchanged all his spoils for Ancient Spirit Coins, totaling 137 coins. Including his original amount, Mo Ming now has 171 Ancient Spirit Coins.

After finishing these tasks, Mo Ming went to the greenhouse to harvest the mature spiced rice.

Then apply catalytic fertilizer and wait for the second harvest.
