Chapter 192: New Year's Changes

"It's here."

Gu Mi was led all the way to the door of a small room. The staff opened the door of the room, and a faint medicinal smell wafted out.

She looked in through the open door, it was quite spacious, and there was a large indoor hot spring pool in the middle, the water in the pool was not the kind of completely clear hot spring water, but a little hazel, and the medicinal smell she smelled was drifted out from inside.

As a master pharmacist, Gu Mi can identify all the types of medicinal herbs in it almost by smelling it, so he also knows that this medicated bath, as introduced by the clerk at the front desk, can relax the muscles and bones and relieve fatigue.

Good, no deception to the consumer.

With the mentality of a leader inspection, Gu Mi commented with satisfaction in her heart, and walked into the interior to understand the functions of the various facilities in the interior under the introduction of the staff who brought her in.

"Please take a shower here before you go down to the pool, and then it is recommended to rinse it after taking a bath. After you have rinsed, you can change into the clothes we prepared here, and go to the rest area to rest or play. Everyone comes. Customers who take a bath can stay in the rest area until the door of our shop is closed, no matter how many hours of bath time they have opened."

After listening to the staff's introduction, Gu Mi suddenly felt that the price of this hot spring bath is quite good. fair.

She nodded, indicating that she understood, and after sending the staff away, she took a shower and stepped into the medicine bath to take a bath.

As soon as he stepped in, Gu Mi felt a warm current of water wrapping his whole body, and he couldn't help but feel so comfortable that he wanted to sigh.

Open the Personal Properties panel.

Sure enough, there are two more buffs after her nickname.

"Fatigue relief", "energy recovery".

Again, no system building is useless, even if some building types are not suitable for their territory, they have their own miraculous effects.

Gu Mi originally thought about leaving after more than an hour. She couldn't come out to play for too long, and she had to go back to prepare for next year's work.

Unexpectedly, halfway through the bath, the world in front of me suddenly fell into a complete darkness, and there were many people screaming in their ears, and everyone was startled by this sudden darkness.

But soon, the screams subsided.

They are all people who have experienced strong winds and waves. Even if they were caught off guard and were not frightened at first, they could calm down quickly, judge the situation in front of them, and actively take various countermeasures.

However, when everyone was preparing to act, an all-territory announcement from their lord lord sounded first.

"Territory Announcement: All the territorial residents wait in place, don't panic, don't be afraid, don't run around at will, to avoid stampede accidents, there is no sign of foreign enemy invasion in the territory so far."

When I heard this announcement, I was a little flustered. The crowd quieted down for a moment, and everyone stayed in place obediently, not running around, just groping to stick with people nearby, or holding hands with each other, occasionally speaking in a low voice, and giving each other courage.

In this completely dark environment, only this communication from other senses can give them a certain sense of security.

As early as the moment the darkness came, Gu Mi felt it.

She opened her eyes instantly and released "God-Level Perception", covering the entire territory, checking whether there were any foreign enemies attacking.

After confirming that it was simply 'it was dark', he got up from the pool and issued a territory-wide announcement to appease the panic of the residents.

After trying to get dressed, Gu Mi opened his palms and released "Magic Flame" with one hand and "Blue Flame" with the other.

Unsurprisingly, the two flames could not emit even the slightest light. This endless darkness seemed to be half of some kind of terrifying monster. The moment the light appeared, it completely devoured it, and did not want to leave it to those Creatures thirsting for light.

"It's too much."

The small whispers seemed to be complaining, and in the darkness, no one knew who said those words.

Teleporting directly from the inside of the bathhouse to the top of the roof of the town center, standing on the top of the tallest building in the territory, the "God-level perception" developed by Gu Mi can more comprehensively detect the situation in the territory.

She can't see either, but her perception feeds back the outlines of each object, telling her what those are.

A person or a thing.

Closing her eyes, she immersed herself in the world of perception, and mysterious lines of spiritual connection protruded from her perception, precisely connecting to those she wanted to connect with.

While sharing the perception picture, he also conveyed an order: "Help the crowd to evacuate to a safe building."

Gu Mi didn't know how long the darkness would last.

She seems to have experienced it in her previous life, but she has no clear memory of it, because at that time she only dared to hide in a corner where she thought she was safe, praying in her heart that this terrible darkness would pass quickly, and she had no energy to record it. its duration.

If you really want her to give a specific answer.

She can only say: a long time, a long time...

because the darkness has been coming for too long, but the meteor shower behind it is even more gorgeous and unforgettable.

By the way, meteor shower!

Thinking of this, Gu Mi immediately controlled the territorial protection array and made it raise a huge protective cover to protect the entire territory, for fear that the subsequent meteor shower would crash into their territory and cause damage to the people and buildings in the territory. At the same time, she also used the lord's authority to convey a message to the vines

who are also members of the territory: "Hide in the soil, the deeper the better."

Just in case, its vines stretched so far that it could surround the entire territory, and the range was too large.

If the territorial protection array can't stand it, it will be the first and most likely to be attacked by meteorites falling from the sky, so Gu Mi would rather not let the vines continue to monitor the situation around the territory, and also want it to retreat to a safe place.

Advanced medicine field can also be regarded as a kind of advanced building.

In addition to the special effects of medicine fields, it also has the basic protection ability of advanced buildings, that is, building durability.

As long as the building's durability is not attacked below 0, the vine group hiding in the medicine field will never be injured, which is a good shelter for the vine group.

The vines are very obedient.

As soon as it received Gu Mi's message of mind, it immediately gathered up the sturdy vines and formed a small group, and then gradually sank into the soil along with the stalks.

If someone can see what it looks like at this time, they can find through the gap that there is a little white in the center of the emerald green vine.

That bit of white is a small crystal bottle.

The crystal bottle is transparent and colorless, and the real color is the milky white liquid shimmering in it - the fountain of life.

This bottle is full of water of life.

Who gave it to the vines?

Obvious.

The spring water of life that Gu Mi gave to the vines was for its daily absorption and cultivation, but if it encounters a critical moment like the present, this bottle of spring of life can also become a life-saver for the vines.

No matter how many injuries it suffers, as long as the root system still has a trace of vitality, it can rely on this bottle of life spring water to survive.

The vine group hid here, and Gu Mi 'looked' at the other side of the people.

Everyone was evacuated into the nearby large buildings in an orderly manner under the guidance of the old village chief and other managers who shared their perceptions.

At this time, hospitals, town centers, bathhouses, schools and other places began to gradually fill with people.

With the shelter of the building, even if you can't see it, everyone is obviously much more at ease.

They were sitting next to each other, some people knew who the people around them were, some didn't, but it didn't matter, it didn't prevent them from chatting and telling jokes with each other, trying to dilute the anxiety and fear in their hearts.

The darkness lasted a long time.

After several hours, there was no light.

"System, what time is it?" Gu Mi asked.

There was no one around her, it was too quiet, and an unbearable sense of loneliness was gradually rising, so even if she knew that in such a dark environment, it would not delay her seeing the information on the system panel, she also wanted to In this way of communication, the system time is inquired.

"11:53 PM." The

system's dull mechanical sound rang.

Maybe it was to give some small preferential treatment to the newly arrived survivors. Gu Mi discovered from a long time ago that as long as the survivors took the initiative to ask, the system would answer some simple questions.

Of course, that's all there is to it.

The question system that is too critical and important will ignore you, it will only ask you to explore the answer yourself.

Otherwise, the secret hidden behind this apocalypse would have been discovered long ago.

There is no shortage of smart people in this world.

"Nine hours have passed." The darkness came at about three o'clock in the afternoon. From three o'clock to the present, it was indeed almost nine hours, and the New Year was approaching.

So, will this be related to the new year?

The answer is yes.

This is not the answer that Gu Mi's intuition told her, but what she judged based on the circumstances of last year and previous life.

I still remember that before the New Year last year, there seemed to be a blackout.

It was only then that at dawn, she was immediately attacked by two skeleton soldiers. After a while, the demon world and the undead joined forces to invade various territories. They also adopted this method of blocking vision and making people fall into complete darkness, so Gu Mi Confused it, thinking that the darkness at the beginning of last year and the beginning of the new year was also caused by those guys.

Now, apparently not.

So is it the consequence of the deepening fusion of the two worlds again?

So what kind of disaster will come this time?

Mere meteor shower may be more than that, right?

Countless questions popped up in Gu Mi's mind, and she already clenched Yuehui's double swords in her hands, ready to deal with everything at any time.

However, when the time came to twelve o'clock and took another step forward, the new year came, and a big news also fell heavily on the heads of the major survivors. .

To be precise, it fell on the heads of every survivor lord.

"Ding, you have a system email, would you like to open it?"

"?" Gu Mi: "Open it." What is the

system doing?

As soon as Gu Mi's words fell, a white envelope-like mail was automatically opened in front of her, and the letter inside automatically flew out, unfolded and landed in front of her.

"Dear Survivor Lords: After your unremitting efforts and the unremitting efforts of other Survivor Lords, at the moment of the new year, you have finally reached the launch standard for the second batch of survivors (successfully established more than ten survivor territories), may I ask you Are you willing to open the second batch of survivor reception channels?

Reminder: You can freely set the number of recipients."
