Chapter 1 Darkness(2/2)

Enduring the pain of the wound, Xu Le gradually became more focused and his body became hot again.

His eyes were fixed on the dagger, but there was no reaction after a long time.

However, the renewed sense of heat made Xu Le feel that he was on the right track.

He glanced around, trying to find if there was anything in the room that could be used to observe and test his abilities.

But with just such a casual glance, the whole house became distorted in Xu Le's sight, as if an unknown fungus had eaten too much.

This time, Xu Le, who was mentally prepared, looked extremely focused and calm.

Although no words appeared in the writhing room, there was a whisper in Xu Le's ears.

[Hey, are you looking for me? Unfortunately, you have no tribute. 】

Tribute? While Xu Le was slightly surprised, the words appeared again.

However, this time the text appeared directly in front of his eyes. Compared with the softness before, it seemed much stiffer. It felt like a middle-aged man paying the official salary and taking care of errands:

[The house is in a dilapidated state, the light level is 2, and it is in a dark state. A level 1 weirdness appears after 6 minutes and 31 seconds. 】

After listening to the whisper, the scenery in front of me returned to normal again.

Xu Le was silent for about 5 seconds.

These 5 seconds are used to calm down.

Then there is:

"grass!"

Next he needs to organize information that is useful to him.

The house is dilapidated, that's clear, light intensity 2 means darkness, and then level 1 weirdness!

Xu Le tightened the dagger in his hand.

I roughly imagined what might happen when the so-called Level 1 weirdness appears.

"What is the level 1 weirdness? How strong is it? Is it dangerous?"

There was no intelligence information, and he didn't even know if this was the previous world, which made Xu Le feel a little bit embarrassed.

However, Xu Le can still determine a few things from the information he has learned so far.

One, he needs light, or the room needs a bright environment.

Two, he has about 6 minutes to make a fire.

Three, he has a lighter!

Xu Le rummaged through this very empty room. The only sustainable burning material was probably a pile of broken and damp wood.

However, it is too difficult to ignite these woods directly and require certain burning conditions to dry them.

"Find something flammable."

After Xu Le murmured for a while, he continued to look around.

The top is already used for bandaging. In this case, he can't take off his pants.

Except for the backpack on the ground and the man's clothes, there seemed to be nothing flammable here.

Thinking of this, Xu Le could only squat down and want to check the other party.

Make sure the other party is really dead.

As a former street novel author, he has researched a lot of information about corpses.

Walking next to the man, Xu Le was basically sure that the man was dead.

"This injury!"

Examining the wound on the man's back, Xu Le was stunned for a moment, then looked at the dagger in his hand.

"Did I kill him?"

Taking advantage of the last five minutes, Xu Le opened the backpack on the ground.

There are still some supplies in the backpack.

Food packaged in paper like compressed biscuits, half a bottle of water, a shovel, a rope, and a plastic bag of fluorescent colored clay powder.

Xu Le picked up the biscuits, of course, not to eat them, but to look at the paper packaging of the food.

The words "Lighthouse No. 7 Cookies" are written on the packaging.

However, the workmanship of the packaging is a bit rough, like a very low-quality knockoff.

For example, "Leibi", "Keri Cola", "Yue Li Yue" and so on.

"Lighthouse No. 7, the name of this cookie..."

After checking the text, Xu Le did not continue to check the items in the backpack.

Instead, dump everything out directly so that you can find useful things as quickly as possible.

Xu Le counted the time silently in his mind. More than a minute had passed since the 6-minute reminder just now.

He must now light something to gain light.

And it is best to allow these flammable materials to ignite the wood in a short period of time.

I touched the ground and found very soft soil.

Xu Le picked up the shovel on the ground and quickly dug a depression in the ground for ventilation.

Then put the damp wood in a circle, split a thick and soft wood block into three thin pieces, and pile them in the center.

Finally, the corpse's clothes and backpack were set on fire with a lighter and stuffed into a small ventilated pit.

call!

Xu Le blew suddenly, and the flame gradually grew stronger.

Sizzle!

Along with the low roar of the wood, a large amount of white smoke floated from the wood block.

This white smoke is the product of water vapor mixed with dust, exuding a musty and rotten smell.

It is easy to light clothes on fire, but it is difficult to light wood.

Fortunately, there is still time for error.

When the flames gradually solidified, Xu Le's face rose slightly.

Stay focused again, and after feeling the heat, the flames in front of you distorted into a pile of words.

[The house is in a dilapidated state, the brightness level is 4, it is in a bright state, and it is temporarily stable.]

Looking at the abnormal flame in front of him, Xu Le's expression finally became normal.

The light brought by the flame at least prevented him from having to face the so-called Level 1 weirdness.

"Phew! The flame is indeed the hope of human civilization. It's getting better!"

Xu Le's worried heart gradually relaxed, and there was even a smile on his face.

Now he just had to keep the flame alive.

Looking at the flames, Xu Le felt safe and even started his usual daily routine of writing!

He scratched the board with his dagger:

I was probably sick and felt uncomfortable at all times. I must have thought about the stories in the book too much and had these hallucinations.

My brain is also dizzy and I have no energy to do anything, so I might as well take some medicine.

Forget it, it’s seven days if you take medicine, and it’s seven days if you don’t take medicine. I’ve always known that.

Xu Le secretly sniffed. Good guy, one side is blocked, but the other side is still blocked.

Thinking of this, Xu Le couldn't help but spit at himself.

Even though you are already so into the street, why are you still so young?

"Life is as thin as paper. It's just a matter of throwing yourself on the street."

What Lu Shuren did, is that what I can do?

I took my thoughts back and was about to add some firewood.

The flames in front of him suddenly began to turn a strange green color.

Xu Le's heart skipped a beat, but he still read on until the green flames showed formed words.

[There is a corpse within the safe area. It has been dead for more than 4 hours. The corpse will become level 1 weird in 10 minutes. 】

[The house is currently in a dilapidated and unsealed state, and a Level 1 weirdness will appear in 14 minutes and 56 seconds at 0:00 midnight.]

[Currently on May 28, the countdown to the Red Moon Tribulation: 2 days, 0 hours, 14 minutes and 56 seconds]

Xu Le:……
Chapter completed!
