Bang!
The five wooden boards were directly knocked away. Andrew picked them up and saw that each board had a fist imprint in the middle.
The first board was the most extreme and was directly punched through, while the last board only had a shallow fist imprint left.
The second to last board was not pierced, but the fist imprint was still very obvious.
On the other hand, Andrew's fist had no damage at all!
It seems that this Strength Potion was not only simple in increasing strength but even enhanced the defense of the skin.
In the past, if he punched a piece of wood without protection, his knuckles would inevitably be scraped and damaged.
But now, his skin was not damaged at all from punching the wood, and he didn't even have any red marks!
Not bad, not bad!
Andrew nodded, quite satisfied with his upgrade.
However, he still had a strong stench on his body. He looked down and found a layer of black dirt on his body.
Unfortunately, Andrew didn't have a bathroom now, and he didn't even have enough water.
Even the 1 liter of water he had left was all gone!
Andrew messaged the water source expert: "Have water yet? I need 100 liters!"
Water source expert: "There's a lot of water! I saw you are selling the compass, can I buy one on credit? I don't have that much mud. But I should be able to dig enough today. Please give me a compass! Otherwise, I suspect I won't be able to come back after I go to the river to fetch water!"
Andrew: "Okay!"
Water source expert: "Thank you! Today, these 100 liters of water are the interest I give to you. Hahaha."
[Trade alert: 100 liters of poisoned water in exchange for 1 compass.]
Andrew confirmed the trade.
It wasn't because he was a saint, but because the water source expert was still important to him for now.
Before Andrew could find a water source himself, he didn't want someone who sold water at such a cheap price to die inexplicably in the mist. Not only would it cause trouble for him when he went to find other suppliers later, but those people might also raise their prices.
He threw the six damaged wooden boards and a pile of dry branches into the bonfire, collected seven pieces of charcoal, and threw them into the water purifier to start the process.
Only then did Andrew pour 100 liters of water into it. By evening, he would get 90 liters of fresh water again.
However, Andrew did not plan to sell these 90 liters of water today. Instead, he planned to heat it up and take a good bath!
The dirt on his body was really uncomfortable!
"White Eagle, going out hunting!"
Andrew greeted White Eagle and opened the door.
The fog outside immediately permeated into the room, flooding everything within a few meters of the door with a white mist, which was quite dramatic!
Bang!
Andrew closed the door directly.
This sealed the mist outside again. As the fog spread into the room, Andrew noticed that the campfire seemed to be burning faster.
After waiting for a while, the fog inside the room was completely burned away!
Today's fog was really too thick. It was even thicker than the last time he entered the misty forest!
This was too exaggerated. It seemed that he couldn't leave without a torch.
Andrew opened the magic book and was about to flip to the "Upgrade Tree" channel to find the interface for making torches when he was attracted by the content of the Regional Chat Channel.
"Holy crap! Luckily, I ran fast, otherwise I would have been taken away by something in the fog!"
"I am absolutely sure now that there are monsters in the fog! When I just went out, I heard a baby crying. Where did the baby come from in this shit place? Holy crap, I was scared to death! Fortunately, I brought a torch!"
"You will die without a torch today!"
"Who has resin? I'm willing to trade my butt for it!"
"Screw you and your butt, get lost!"
Andrew had resin, but he didn't plan to trade it, as it would become more and more useful later on.
After scanning the chat channel, Andrew was basically certain that the game difficulty had increased. From now on, the fog would appear whether it was day or night, and the monsters inside the fog seemed to be unable to leave the fog.
This should be a restriction imposed on the monsters inside the fog to protect the players.
According to the theory that monsters are weaker during the day and stronger at night, Andrew wondered what would happen in the fog at night.
But now was not the time to worry about this. Andrew quickly opened the "Upgrade Tree" and found the content related to torches.
Unconsciously, he was able to make a level 2 torch.
[Advanced Windproof Torch: More durable than a regular torch (can burn for up to 4 hours), illuminates a larger area, up to 5 meters, and is a must-have for going out. Crafting conditions: Resin 185/5, Advanced Wood 181/1, Vine 9/1]
The 4-hour burning time was about 4 times that of a regular torch.
Moreover, from the description, it seemed to be windproof and could illuminate a larger area, which was indeed a good thing.
It needed advanced wood, so Andrew was reluctant to craft it.
If it were someone else, they might choose an advanced windproof torch, but Andrew had the hint that it was unnecessary to make such a good torch.
[Resin-2, Wood-1, Vine-1]
He made an ordinary torch first.
Andrew lit the torch and then reopened the door to the room. With the torch in his hand, the mist did not come into the room!
"Come on, dude!" Andrew tilted his head towards the white eagle.
The white eagle immediately used both claws to walk towards the door, shaking and swaying. It had to open its wings a little to maintain balance.
Who would have thought that the majestic eagle would look so silly while walking?
But as soon as it went out, the white eagle immediately spread its wings and flew high!
Watching the white eagle soaring in the sky, Andrew was a little puzzled.
Could the white eagle see things in the mist?
[Eagle Eye!]
He immediately used the eagle eye effect.
Through the white eagle's eyes, Andrew found that there was no mist in the sky, only a thick layer of fog below.
Moreover, the distribution of these mists was particularly strange. The closer to where people lived, the denser the fog was, such as the stone house where Andrew lived, where the fog was as solid as a substance.
On the other hand, the fog was less severe in places a little further away from the stone house.
The remaining places with dense fog were the misty forest and some valleys.
Andrew surveyed the world below through the eyes of the white eagle.
The light source could easily penetrate the fog.
When he looked down in midair, Andrew could still see a hint of orange-yellow light shining through the mist. That should be the light emitted by the torch in his hand.
Through the eyes of the white eagle, Andrew discovered that there were about ten light sources appearing within a radius of about ten kilometers around him.
Didn't this mean that there were many players around him?
