'Cyan stone?'
Liao Fan had never seen such a thing before.
The cyan stone reminded him of the fluorescent stone that he had obtained at the beginning.
Liao Fan began thinking to himself.
'First, let me rule out the woman's resources.
'She did not have enough materials to craft torches for a second exploration.
'Furthermore, she did not have the amplification ability.
'Her torches could only last for three minutes each.
'Basically, the cyan stone was one of the original materials provided by the system.'
This was totally possible.
'The next question is, why were there no synthesis options when I stare at my fluorescent stone?
'Is it possible that the options would only appear if I have the other materials?
'This fluorescent stone is definitely needed to produce a particular item.'
Liao Fan also made another conclusion.
Allegedly, everyone initially started with different resources.
Even the number of villagers was not the same!
Liao Fan made a bold guess.
'Resources are allocated depending on a person's situation.'
For weak women, they would be given more resources. They might even get rare materials.
As for strong men, it was the opposite.
Of course, there might be a few lucky exceptions.
In a survival game, luck was considered a form of strength.
Liao Fan felt that he was relatively lucky.
He also got three pieces of bread and three bottles of water in addition to his resources.
Furthermore, if he did not have the enhancement ability, he would have probably not survived.
Even if he could suppress his hunger the first day, things would get worse on the second day.
Moreover, there were also two villagers that needed to be fed.
Three pieces of bread might not even be enough for a toddler, let alone three grown adults.
Liao Fan continued to speculate even further.
'The guy who traded me two hundred coals for two liters of water probably had a mine as one of his initial resources.'
As for why he had such a huge advantage, the answer was very clear.
Either the other party was a disabled person or he had some kind of mental disorder.
There was no other explanation.
...
Liao Fan held the cyan stone in his hand.
It was about the size of his fist and it emitted a faint cyan light.
This was an extremely rare item!
It was needed to craft the tri-colored light platform and that was the best item Liao Fan had ever laid eyes on!
The tri-colored light platform could permanently remove the fog within a certain distance.
'Does this mean that if I carried the tri-colored light platform with me, I would never have to worry about the fog?'
Of course, the tri-colored light platform's size needed to be adequate. If it was too big, Liao Fan would not be able to carry it with him.
Liao Fan could guess the materials needed to make the tri-colored light platform.
After all, the name itself was very telling.
The main materials would most likely be the cyan stone and the light red stone that was displayed by the system earlier.
Since it was named as "tri-colored", one more colored stone would be needed.
The fluorescent stone fits the bill.
As for the other materials, Liao Fan could also figure it out.
A platform would probably be made of basic materials such as wood, stone, and coal.
Liao Fan could get these materials through trading.
In other words, the only material he lacked to synthesize the three-colored light platform was a light red stone!
As long as he could get his hands on a red light stone, he would no longer have to worry about crafting torches to dispel the fog.
Liao Fan looked around the room again.
There was nothing else of value.
The only valuable thing was the thatched cottage itself.
This could become his second shelter!
He would be able to explore more places!
Unlocking the entire area would become much easier.
Liao Fan then opened the door and lit a torch.
He ventured into the fog with his villagers again.
Now, his priority was to find other resources.
Additionally, he needed to go fishing by the stream.
Although Liao Fan still had plenty of water, most of the food had already been consumed.
One fish would not be enough to feed three people.
Before he went out, Liao Fan had actually crafted a wooden sink in his thatched cottage.
He had decided to keep the fish in that sink.
