EP 292. Tony’s progress

Although it is located in the North American continent and will not be affected by the Siberian cold current, the cold air from the Arctic will still make people living in New York feel the majesty of winter after passing through the Maple Leaf Country.

"There are not many guests today."

"Yeah, maybe it's because of the heavy snow."

"That's right. If it were me, I wouldn't come out."

It was around two o'clock in the afternoon, and we had an early afternoon break. Sitting in the warm front hall, enjoying the fragrant tea brewed by 2B himself, the three Chappells couldn't help but fall into laziness.

Normally, I might have scolded you a few times, but today...

Thinking that with such heavy snow, there would definitely be few guests in the afternoon, and because there were still a lot of materials left at noon, there was no need to prepare again for the time being, so Shi Xiaolei pretended not to see it and let three people and one horse go regardless of trivial matters.

"The snow today is a bit exaggerated."

What does it mean to roll up thousands of piles of snow? I had only seen it in books before, but now, Shi Xiaolei had really witnessed it with his own eyes.

"After five o'clock in the afternoon, there will be another cold wave..." Handing the phone to Shi Xiaolei, 2B showed him the cold wave warning notice just issued by the meteorological station: "Locke, how about we close early today."

The number of guests at noon was 40% less than yesterday.

Judging from this trend, there should not be many guests in the afternoon. What's more, the weather is still changing to the worse side.

By 5 or 6 p.m., the temperature will get colder, and fewer people will be willing to go out under those conditions.

"Yeah." After taking a look at the text message, Shi Xiaolei nodded: "I have no objection. Anyway, it's such a cold day and there aren't many customers in total."

Thinking in his mind, 'Use the materials left over at noon, no matter what time it is, just close the door and get off work.' Looking at the heavy snowflakes flying in the wind outside the window, Shi Xiaolei fell into silence, and his vision gradually lost focus.

Maybe it was a few minutes, maybe it was ten minutes, but at the moment when the sleepiness gradually set in, Shi Xiaolei heard a string of crisp music from his pocket.

The quiet and peaceful atmosphere with a bit of laziness was broken by a series of cell phone ringtones, and Shi Xiaolei, who was half-squinting his eyes, was startled.

He quickly took out his phone and took a look. It turned out to be a call from Stark.

"Hello? What's going on~." Breaking the quiet atmosphere, he was a little embarrassed to be stared at by several other people. When he answered the phone, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but have a hint of complaint in his tone.

"Man, I have some good news for you." Stark on the other end of the phone didn't notice Shi Xiaolei's tone at all. He shouted very excitedly: "I succeeded! Haha~, I succeeded~!"

"Successful?" It may be that the heavy snow has affected the signal, and the voice on the phone is slightly messy. Shi Xiaolei stood up subconsciously, holding his mobile phone in one hand, pushing open the store door with the other and walking under the shed outside: "What succeeded?"

Some were curious about the content of the call between the two, but when they felt the cold air blowing in when Shi Xiaolei opened the door, the three Chappells immediately curbed their curiosity and gave up the idea of ​​eavesdropping.

They never expected that this hesitation would cause them to miss a piece of big news.

"What else could it be, a replicating dinosaur~!" During the phone call, Stark's tone became more and more excited.

"Huh?" The voice became a little clearer, but Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but confirm it again: "Man, are you serious? Did I hear it wrong?"

"Of course it's true, listen."

The next second, several childish and sharp screams came from the phone, which sounded a bit like a chick that had just hatched, and had a bit of hoarseness that the chicks didn't have.

If it were anyone else, they might not be able to tell what animal made this noise, but for Shi Xiaolei, who owns the Ark and often goes in for a walk, this sound is very familiar.

"Typtognathus?"

"That's right, it's a Diplognathus." Perhaps he was interacting with the newborn baby dinosaur. There were several rustling sounds on the other end of the phone, as well as Stark's joyful teasing: " Wow, what a healthy and lively little guy, don’t say goodbye, that thing is not food.”

Before traveling back in time, when playing "Ark: Survival Evolved", Shi Xiaolei once hated dinosaurs such as Diplognathus.

It's not because they will actively attack the game characters controlled by the player like Velociraptors, but because they have kleptomania. After getting close to the player, they will steal the props placed by the player in the shortcut bar.

Moreover, props placed by players in the No. 0 shortcut bar are often given priority.

what does that mean? This means that players are very likely to suffer extremely serious losses due to the theft of the Diplognathus - in most cases, the more commonly used tools will be placed in the front shortcut bar. Position 0 usually contains less commonly used props. For example, the blood bag can only be used after being injured, the parachute may be used when falling from a high place, or the cryogenic chamber temporarily dragged to the No. 0 shortcut bar key when releasing the dinosaur. Compared with commonly used mining picks and axes, the production process of these things is much more troublesome, and it takes much more time to collect materials before production.

Once upon a time, Shi Xiaolei was not paying attention, and the cryogenic chamber that he had just dragged to the 0 shortcut bar key was stolen by a Bistegnathus.

Just one cryogenic chamber was already a considerable loss. What made Shi Xiaolei even more heartbroken was that the cryogenic chamber also contained a Fengshen Pterosaur that he had spent a lot of effort to catch and had just reached the full level.

At that time, we were not playing stand-alone, but characters created in the server. Shi Xiaolei spent three full days on catching, training, and leveling up the Fengshen Pterosaur.

It's not the three day and night changes in the game, but three days in reality.

The results of three days of hard work were wiped out by a Diplognathus... It is no exaggeration to say that at the moment when he was sure that he could not catch the Diplognathus, Shi Xiaolei wanted to smash the computer. .

Even now, thinking back on it, he was still a little depressed.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" I didn't know that Shi Xiaolei had fallen into the hands of a Diplognathus. Hearing his tone, Stark was a little dissatisfied: "Hey, this is a breakthrough, why don't you do it for me?" Am I happy?"

"No, uh, I mean...man, you misunderstood. I'm happy too, but...his, a little cold."

"cold?"

"It's snowing too much, and the signal in the house is not good. I'm answering the phone outside." As he spoke, a gust of cold wind blew over and filled Shi Xiaolei's neck with two snowflakes.

With Shi Xiaolei's physique after integrating the blood of the barbarians, there is actually no need to fear the cold. After all, the barbarians' hometown is on the snow-covered Arreat Highlands all the year round. For them, frost and cold are already commonplace. .

However, Shi Xiaolei is not a real barbarian after all.

"Hiss." Shrinking his neck unconsciously, Shi Xiaolei didn't want to continue talking nonsense: "Tony, I'm coming over now. Where are you? The headquarters building of Stark Industries?"
