Chapter 5 Double Harvest

Zhang Tuohai came to the foot of the sand dune and tried to climb up.
But the entire sand dune is made up of fine sand, which is soft and weak when stepped on.
It's fine when walking on flat ground, but when climbing up the sand dunes, your feet can easily sink into the sand.
After only climbing two steps, Zhang Tuohai's shoes were filled with all kinds of fine sand, and he almost lost his shoes.
At this time, the temperature of the sand surface was at least over 40 degrees, extremely hot. Zhang Tuohai couldn't imagine the consequences of stepping on such sand barefoot.
"Should we go around the two sides of the dune? Wouldn't that make it easier to walk?"
Zhang Tuohai was thinking in his heart.
[Please climb straight up the dune to the top. There is a quicksand vortex on the left side of the dune, and a bad-tempered black scorpion is hidden on the right side of the dune.]
As if sensing Zhang Tuohai’s thoughts, an electronic synthesized sound immediately rang out.
"hiss--"
Zhang Tuohai took a breath. He didn't expect that there were such sinister traps hidden on both sides of the seemingly ordinary sand dunes.
If it weren't for the reminder system, he would have been caught.
Even he almost fell into the trap, so one can imagine how much of a test those ordinary people without a system would have to endure.

If it weren't for my extreme luck, it would have been difficult to escape from the desert unscathed.
After receiving the prompt from the prompt system, Zhang Tuohai didn't dare to think about those shortcuts anymore. He just climbed towards the top of the sand dune along the route.
Zhang Tuohai inserted the crowbar into the sand dune as a crutch, and climbed up to the top of the dune with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
By the time Zhang Tuohai climbed to the top of the sand dune using his hands and feet, his entire body was covered in sand and dust.
As soon as he climbed to the top of the sand dune, he saw the blue supply box neatly placed behind the dune.
[Level 2 supply box, a slightly higher level supply box, may contain supplies, but may also be dangerous. ]
This is a note for the game system.
[Level 2 supply box, containing two buckets of instant noodles, a tea egg, and a liter of mineral water. It is safe, please open it with confidence.] This is the prompt given by the prompt system.
After hearing the prompt from the reminder system, Zhang Tuohai's eyes lit up. He quickly crawled two steps to the blue supply box. With a bang, he inserted the crowbar into the gap of the supply box. He pressed down hard and pried up the lid of the supply box.
Swish!
The blue supply box disappeared instantly, revealing its contents.
Two buckets of instant noodles, one bucket is pickled cabbage flavor, and the other bucket is braised beef flavor.
The tea eggs are packed tightly in vacuum packaging.
Next to it was a large one-liter bottle of mineral water.
"Sure enough, great danger brings great rewards." Zhang Tuohai excitedly hugged all the supplies in his arms.
These supplies are enough for him to consume today.
If you save a little, you can even have breakfast tomorrow.
[Dig down one meter and you will find a white resource box containing 80 units of gasoline and 1 coat.]
“It’s a double yolk egg!”
Zhang Tuohai was shocked when he heard the voice next to him.
He didn't expect that he would get two supply boxes at once when he entered the desert this time.
Although the supply box buried under the sand pile is just white, the supplies inside are very important.
Needless to say, gasoline is the third most important supply after food and water.
With gasoline, you can travel farther and search for more resources.
These 80 units of gasoline are enough for him to cruise for 2-3 hours.
Based on the previous frequency of obtaining a supply box every 10-20 kilometers, this gasoline is enough to ensure that he can obtain 4-8 supply boxes tomorrow, which should be enough for survival.
Zhang Tuohai quickly pushed the instant noodles and other supplies aside, put his hands into the sand and dug downwards.
Zhang Tuohai, who had only eaten a piece of bread, started wheezing after taking a few bites.
However, he did not stop to rest, but continued to dig down.
Because there was sand all around, every time he dug out a handful of sand, another half handful of fine sand would flow in from the surrounding area, making Zhang Tuohai's excavation work very slow.
Moreover, the sand that had been exposed to the sun was extremely hot, making Zhang Tuohai's hands a little red and swollen.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have given up long ago due to the lack of tools.
However, Zhang Tuohai knew how important the resources below were to him, and he kept working hard to dig downwards.
He dug a one-meter-deep pit for more than an hour. His fingers were almost numb from the wear and tear, and his hands were shaking from exhaustion.
By the time Zhang Tuohai saw the white supply box, his eyes were already full of stars.
Zhang Tuohai unscrewed the bottle of mineral water, took a sip, and rested against the sand for a while before he breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the sun hanging high in the sky, grabbed the crowbar, inserted it into the gap of the supply box, pressed down hard, and the white supply box was opened.
The contents were revealed - a small tin barrel with the words 80 and gasoline written on it.
Next to it was a neatly folded black coat.
【80 units of gasoline found.】
【Found a coat. 】
This is a hint from the game system.
"Great!" After seeing the resources, Zhang Tuohai felt full of energy all over his body, and he excitedly picked up the gasoline barrel.
With this barrel of gasoline, his itinerary for tomorrow is settled.
Zhang Tuohai threw the gasoline barrel out of the sand pit, then picked up the coat and looked at it carefully.
This is an old-fashioned coat with black camel hair on the outside and fine short hair on the inside. The length is up to Zhang Tuohai's calves, and it is estimated that it is warm enough to withstand temperatures as low as minus 10 degrees Celsius.
but……
Zhang Tuohai looked up at the scorching sun above his head.
The temperature in this desert is as high as thirty or forty degrees. Why do I need such a coat?
The bad taste of the material delivery person?
Zhang Tuohai speculated.
However, since it has been unpacked, it would be a waste not to take it.
Zhang Tuohai took his coat with him.
After leaving the sand pit, Zhang Tuohai returned to the car along the original route with the supplies.
After throwing all the supplies onto the back seat, Zhang Tuohai leaned back to take a rest while logging into the regional channel to see how everyone was doing.
This sight frightened Zhang Tuohai greatly.
The regional channel has been flooded with red text by the system.
Line after line, it contains the players' death information.
Until now, death information is still rolling up from time to time.
The number of people in the regional channel has dropped to 3,028.
Moreover, the numbers are still shrinking.
In other words, in just less than two hours, more than 1,700 people died?
Zhang Tuohai stared at the numbers in a trance.
It was not until the sun set that the endless stream of death information gradually stopped.
The number of group members in the regional channel finally settled at 2,712.
A challenge by the brave resulted in the deaths of more than two thousand players in this area.
The depreciation rate is nearly half.
