Chapter 250, Branch Quest Unlocked, Seed!

That afternoon, the wind and snow had gotten so heavy that even the officers of the Divine Mechanism Battalion could hardly bear it, and the person in charge of breaking the snow had to pull his back leg out of the snow before taking another step.

Even if everyone took turns breaking the snow, even walking on flat ground in this hellish weather would be extremely strenuous.

But no one dared to faint again this entire afternoon, they were afraid of being dragged alive inside the snow by Ren Xiaosu.

“Set up camp,” said the officer of the Divine Mechanism Battalion, “We’ll move on when the snow stops.”

This wasn’t the time to worry about face, if they kept going, all of them might die in the snow.

At that point, the mission would be equally impossible to accomplish, and they wouldn’t even be able to walk to Double Dragon Mountain.

The officers of the Divine Mechanism Battalion felt like they could still hold out, but the private army soldiers’ physique was too poor.

When they learned that they could set up camp and rest, all the soldiers of the private force felt like they had been reborn, they trembled and wanted to sit directly in the snow to rest, but Ren Xiaosu yelled, “All of you get up and set up your tents, if you want to rest without a tent that is sheltered from the wind, do you want to die inside the snow?”

In fact, if you don’t set up a tent, you can rest in the snow, just dig a snow pit and bury yourself in it, it’s not ironic, but it’s the best way to trek in the snow if you don’t have a tent.

Many people think that being buried in a snow pit will be colder, but in fact snow pits instead help keep the body warm because the world outside the pit is colder.

Ren Xiaosu had heard Zhang Jinglin say that some human communities further north would build houses made of ice to keep warm in winter.

At this point, faced with the threat of death, everyone struggled to get up, using the last of their strength from their bodies to set up their tents.

But some of the combat squads were miserable, and in order to save energy on the way, they had already thrown away their tents at some point.

At this time, it was better to be able to squeeze into other people’s tents, but if other people didn’t let them rub their tents, then they could only dig snow pits and gamble whether their bodies were hard enough.

Ren Xiaosu explained to Li Qingzheng, “I’ll set up the tent, you guys pick up the dry firewood on the ground, if there is no dry firewood, then pick up branches, always have to raise the fire to roast the body, and one person to drink a bowl of hot porridge, otherwise no one can bear it.”

“Okay,” Li Qingzheng’s face was red with cold: “Leave it to me, brothers follow me, go out and pick up some firewood back.”

The branches broken off from the trees will emit a lot of smoke during the lighting process, choking people.

But compared to keeping warm, this was all trivial.

Right at this moment, the palace said in Ren Xiaosu’s mind, “Quest completed: reward basic level skill learning atlas.”

Until this moment, his quest was considered complete, and this was probably the hardest first time doing a normal quest.

Now he had two Skill Learning Atlases on him, but Ren Xiaosu didn’t intend to use them because there were no targets nearby that he could learn from, if he encountered Nonsense again, he could try it out, even though Basic Level Atlases couldn’t learn Transcendent Abilities, Nonsense must have quite a few skills in his body that Ren Xiaosu could use, and even if he bumped into his luck he could probably still salvage something good.

But the palace’s words weren’t finished, it continued, “Side quest completed, unlocking a new item for the vending machine, seeds!”

Ren Xiaosu’s eyes lit up, this side quest had finally made it to the end of time ah, he always felt that time was so long, but if he carefully counted, today was only the second day of the Lunar New Year.

He looked towards the palace, only to see that the vending machine in the palace stood quietly, and next to the grid of bursting poker, there was a new grid.

Inside that grid a single seed was scattered inside, but what surprised Ren Xiaosu was that those seeds seemed to look a little different, could it be that if the seeds looked different, the plants that grew out would be different?

That newly unlocked grid was like a candy box in a grocery store, the flowery wrappers then represented different flavors, while the different colored seeds represented different uses.

He threw in a thank you coin into it, only to see a thumb-sized crimson seed fall out of the pickup port below, Ren Xiaosu took it in his hands, but the palace didn’t explain what it was exactly.

“Do you have to plant it to know?” Ren Xiaosu wondered, the key is that you palace at least say it’s growing environment, right?

Palace production, there must be magical place, but this magical place must be their own test.

For example, before the bursting poker, is also Ren Xiaosu himself developed the bomb usage, if he did not develop, it is also an ordinary playing cards only.

What to do? Try burying it in the ground? What if this kind of seed can immediately germinate and blossom? If the plants born from the seeds in this winter could immediately bear some fruit or something, wouldn’t that be beautiful.

Regarding the rewards of the side quests given by the palace, Ren Xiaosu had always held great expectations, even expectations that disregarded the laws of nature.

Ren Xiaosu said to Chen Wufei, “You guard the tent here, when they come back say that I saw a small wild boar and am going to go and catch it for dinner, if I come back late, you will improvise yourself.”

“Good,” Chen Wufei nodded.

Ren Xiaosu walked alone towards the snow, and as he walked he felt that he might have been a little hasty in asking Chen Wuxi to improvise ……

He headed further north, to find a suitable place to experiment with just how amazing this sub was.

He kept walking north until he found a place that was slightly leeward, only then did he finally dig through the snow and dirt on the surface of the ground and buried the crimson colored seed inside.

Ren Xiaosu waited patiently, but saw that the just-buried seed suddenly sent out buds, a thorn-like spikes grew outward, its thorny branches spread out from the snow, until it spread dozens of meters before gradually stopping.

If this snow is lifted, I’m afraid that Ren Xiaosu can see this red thorn vines as if they are like a spider’s web laying on the ground, waiting for their prey.

At this moment, this plant and burst poker as with Ren Xiaosu’s consciousness connection, Ren Xiaosu shocked actually found that this plant is extremely aggressive, if there is no Ren Xiaosu control then it will attack all the creatures passing by!

What is the situation, Ren Xiaosu thought that this thing could bear fruit to eat, but it turned out to be an attacking type of plant.

No, instead of attacking, it’s more like defense.

If Ren Xiaosu and the others really live in the deep forest in the future, as long as they plant a circle of this thing around them, all the wild beasts don’t need to be afraid of it.

Ren Xiaosu looked at the other colors of seeds in the palace, also do not know what the other seeds will be able to do, there must be a kind of is able to eat it…….

After he thought about it he threw in 5 thank you coins again and exchanged out five seeds in one breath before burying them one by one into the soil that was far away from each other.

Chen Wuhui sat in the tent waiting and waiting, Li Qingzheng asked, “Wuhui, what did your master do?”

Chen Wou-mei thought for a moment and said, “My master went to catch a wild boar and is going to catch it back for us to have for dinner.”

Li Qingzheng: “Then why hasn’t he come back yet?”

Chen Wu Xie thought for a moment, “Maybe the wild boar doesn’t agree.”
