Natural Disasters Strikes: I stockpiled like crazy! - Chapter 105

Chapter 105: New Function Unlock
Nanzhi took flashlight and sat beside the bathroom tub.

[Do you wish to use the function card now?]

She gave her consent.

The function card in her hand disappeared and in front of her was a green holographic screen divided into two.

On each green square was a cartoon picture.

The first was picture of a small well.

In the second square, are three brown wooden doors.

“Only two?”

[You’re only at Level 10. You have will only have two choices.]

[The next function card will have three.]

Nanzhi pursed her lips.

Well, at least she had been given a choice.

Nanzhi didn’t select yet. She pondered on the two choices deeply.

She was certain that first square one pertains to water supply.

She also had one constructed in her game territory before but that one is limited and it’s affected by weather.

For instance, in winter, it will be frozen and the water drawn from it is icy. Her base residents suffered cold and fever.

During heat wave, its supply will be down to 20% and the base residents suffered dehydration and heat stroke.

She had her avatar build the wells inside a basement to solve the problem.

“How much water can it supply per day and will it stay at room temperature?”

[The small well can supply 99 tons per day or 99,000 liters per day. It will be virtual like the farm, is upgradable and is not affected by weather conditions.]

Nanzhi: !!!

That’s tempting but she is not badly in need of it in the meantime.

She just emptied dozens of reservoir of a different country.

Therefore, the well is less tempting.

Nanzhi checked the other option.

There was something painted on top of each door but Nanzhi couldn’t read it well because of how small the letters were.

But she was able to read one word-Dungeon.

Dungeon?

“Is this some kind of simulation? Like a play through?”

Will she able to see the contents of the dungeon beforehand?

[It’s not a simulation.]

Nanzhi fell into deep thought, browsing her memory and was finally able to recall what the three doors were.

“Is it those mini exploration dungeons that are featured in the main page of the game?”

[Yes, the three doors correspond to the Mini Weekly and Daily Dungeon.]

[Host, if I were you. I would pick this one.]

Nanzhi wasn’t very happy. Her eyes turned sharp.

“You do realize this is a real world right, not the game? I only have one life and some of those things in the dungeon is dangerous for the current me. Although the loots are good, I’m not going to bet my life on the unknown and unpredictable risks.”

The dangers inside the mini weekly dungeons are of whole different level.

[Host, in the dungeon, you will have extra lives and after every dungeon exploration, your body will recover to the state you are before you entered. ]

Extra lives?

The system words piqued Nanzhi’s interest.

“Okay. Talk more.”

The system explained to her what the mechanics for the mini dungeon function was.

After listening, Nanzhi asked a series of questions.

“If I don’t the select the other function, will it disappear from the future choice pool?”

The mini dungeons are good but water is life.

Her stock of water is huge but it’s not unlimited.

“It will still be included in the next function unlock and the succeeding functions unlocks. The arrangement of unlocking is up to you.”

“That’s good.” Nanzhi nodded in satisfaction.

“Next question, when will I unlocked another function?”

[After you survive the second dungeon.]

That’s in another month.

Not very long.

Nanzhi looked at the time in the screen.

[Dungeon Duration: 29 days]

“Third question, can I also upgrade the exploration chances of the weekly mini dungeons?”

[Yes, but you cannot use the Upgrade Card.]

[Upgrading the exploration chance will be based on your level. For every 5 levels you gained onwards, you will additional chances until you reached the limit of three.]

[After reaching the chance limit, you can unlock another kind of dungeon.]

Nanzhi slowly bobbed her head. So that’s how it works.

Technically, for every 15 levels she will have another mini dungeon, which means she can have unlock six more mini dungeons if she reached level 100.

Not bad. She just hoped the loots would be worth it.

“Alright, then for the last question…” Nanzhi’s eyes dimmed.

“Why did the other player’s corpse disappear after getting killed by me?”

Now her level is already passed 10, she was eligible to ask this.

Why the heck did Chu Muwen disappear without leaving a trace?

The system was silent for a few seconds.

[It’s the payment. Every player will disappear if he or she is killed.]

There was a lump struck on Nanzhi’s throat.

“Where do they end up after? Is there some kind of space like the game lobby?”

[Like we said before, reach level 100 and you’ll know everything.]

Nanzhi didn’t dig further and only asked another query, “Then if I reached level 100 before I die, will I disappear too.”

[No.]

“That’s good to hear.” Nanzhi finally found something to be happy about.

Nanzhi checked the time. It was already four and a half in the morning. She didn’t dawdle anymore and picked a function.

[Player, are you sure?]

Nanzhi nodded.

A minute later, inside the game lobby, Nanzhi looked at the new doors that appeared at the east side of the Game Lobby’s white walls.

[Daily Dungeon]

[Weekly Dungeon 1/1]

[Resource Dungeon 2/2]

Besides the daily dungeon, the other two can only be explored one or twice per week.

Today is Wednesday.

She can’t enter Weekly Dungeon yet because it is only open on weekends.

Resource Dungeon can only be entered between 4: 00 pm to 7 p.m.

She needs to wait 12 hours to enter.

Daily Dungeon is open 24 hours and for seven days.

But the time she can explore inside is synonymous to the Game Lobby’s time.
