Farm games to survive the apocalypse
Chapter 164 Acid Rain World 5
Let’s put the issue of finding a house aside for now. The most important thing is how to find a way to prevent acid rain in a limited space.
Due to the acid rain, people have fallen into a panic. Everyone wants to stockpile enough supplies before the next acid rain comes. At first, everyone was busy grabbing food and medicine. When they couldn't get any more, they surrounded the hospitals and supermarkets and made a fuss. Many owners of small supermarkets closed their doors early. After all, they could see the situation clearly and of course they had to keep the good things for themselves.
But gradually, people like Jiang Wei realized the importance of houses. Rich people directly spent a lot of money to buy various anti-corrosion building materials to renovate their homes, while ordinary people could only find ways to find better places.
For a while, newer residential communities with better materials were particularly popular.
The house that Jiang Wei rented at the beginning was located in a middle- to high-end residential area. It was a relatively solid wall building. After all, it was better than the old residential areas, so many people came to inquire about it.
During the journey, Jiang Wei received news from the landlord. The landlady was a very nice person. She did not ask her to move out because of the high prices outside, nor did she take the opportunity to raise the rent. Instead, she asked Jiang Wei to pay attention to safety and stock up more supplies.
Jiang Wei accepted the kindness and was quite content to live here temporarily.
Just as people were busy and tense, the second global severe acid rain fell again.
Jiang Wei looked at the acid rain which was transparent last time and had turned deep red this time. The red raindrops fell on the ground and gathered like blood. People who were accidentally injured fell to the ground. It was no longer possible to distinguish between blood and rain. The two merged together and flowed, which made people even more chilled.
The acid rain kept falling, and people stayed indoors and dared not go out. However, in the old residential areas, the decades-old buildings could no longer withstand the erosion of the acid rain. The walls began to peel off and the tops of the walls began to collapse.
"Ahhh, help!" People in the old community saw the wall collapse and wanted to turn around and flee, but they didn't know where to go.
"It hurts, the rain hurts so much." The person who managed to run out of the building couldn't bear the pain as soon as he came into contact with the rain. The rain penetrated his protection, melted his skin, and directly exposed the bones under the skin. Soon the whole person melted in the rain.
This scene made those who wanted to escape stop in their tracks and they were in a dilemma.
Even the mid-range residential area where Jiang Wei lived seemed to have faded severely under the acid rain, and it would definitely not be able to withstand it if it happened a few more times.
Suddenly, Jiang Wei saw a flash of light in the red rain. She thought it was lightning, but soon a system prompt in her head told her that it was not ordinary lightning.
[Congratulations to the player for triggering the side quest. The side quest is: destroy the Acid Rain Crystal. If the player is near the Acid Rain Crystal, the system will give a prompt.]
(Note: The scale and damage of acid rain in the location of the Acid Rain Crystal will be twice that of other areas. There is a three-hour safety period after the Acid Rain Crystal appears. After three hours, acid rain will fall in the area. Finally, bonus points will be given based on the player's personal performance.)
The moment the side quest popped up, Jiang Wei's face changed. The acid rain was already very serious now, and she couldn't imagine how serious the acid rain with twice the damage would be.
"This acid rain crystal must be destroyed!" Jiang Wei thought.
Fortunately, the system still has some conscience and tells them the location of the Acid Rain Crystal. Although it doesn't give the specific location, it does give them time. They just need to find it and destroy it within three hours.
Jiang Wei quickly checked the map and found no clues. It might be because the acid rain had just ended, and the acid rain crystals would only appear when the next acid rain came.
At this time, Xiao Chen sent her a message, "Boss, have you received the side quest?"
Jiang Wei replied that he had received it, and then the two of them talked and found that they were both tasked with destroying the Acid Rain Crystals. This was normal, after all, there definitely couldn't be only one or two Acid Rain Crystals, and this was a difficulty that all players needed to face.
After the two men finished their discussion, Xiao Chen told Jiang Wei that he knew a person with gold-related abilities, who could build a sturdy house if he could be provided with enough metal.
Jiang Wei had an idea. She had indeed collected a lot of anti-corrosion materials, but it was not easy for her to decorate the house by herself. It would be much more convenient to have a gold-type mutant, but the house here was not suitable for them to decorate.
Xiao Chen: We can find a house or villa in the countryside to renovate, which is more convenient.
Jiang Wei: OK
After Jiang Wei replied, he planned to go out. The acid rain fell during the day, and it would be around 2 pm after it stopped before it was safe to go out. Xiao Chen also planned to go with him, and the two of them would go to collect more metal materials.
Jiang Wei found Xiao Chen to talk, "The anti-corrosion metal materials can be purchased directly from the metal factory in the suburbs. We have to go quickly, they should be in great demand now."
Xiao Chen nodded, "Okay"
The two of them did not plan to live together, so they would need more metal materials. Jiang Wei initially thought of buying some to protect the outside. After all, she did not have that much money. Now it seemed that she still had to find some more special metal materials to renovate the house.
The two of them drove towards the metal factory. Along the way, Jiang Wei looked at the streets and felt as if he had returned to 20 years ago. There were mottled and broken walls everywhere, and the street lights and bus stops had been completely corroded and became bumpy.
The rivers and grasslands were the most seriously injured. The water in the rivers was no longer clear but had become turbid. Dead fish, shrimps and crabs were floating on the surface of the river. The weeds and other plants on the grasslands had all withered. Only dark and blackened trunks were left of the big trees, which looked as if they would break with the slightest twist.
The two drove all the way to the metal factory, and when they arrived they found that many people had gathered there.
The director of the metal factory was surrounded and couldn't get away.
A group of people were excited to buy the materials, "Where are the acid-proof materials? I want to buy them."
“I want to buy one too.”
"Director, please sell it to us."
The factory director was surrounded by a crowd and couldn't get away. Under such circumstances, someone called him. When the factory director picked up the phone, Jiang Wei and Xiao Chen's keen hearing told them that the person on the other end of the line should be the son of a powerful family, who wanted to take over the entire factory as soon as he opened his mouth.
Fortunately, the factory manager refused and only agreed to give a part of it. The others didn't care about that and were about to rob it. The security guards and workers in the factory also rushed out to stop them from taking action.
At this moment, everyone understood that the ingredients were crucial, so they all united with the boss.
The factory director was able to walk out of the crowd. He breathed a sigh of relief and said to everyone, "You don't have to gather around me. I have limited materials, and I and the workers in the factory need them. Money is useless now. I can sell some to you out of conscience, but I can't sell too much."
