[Li Wenxi has requested a video call. Would you like to accept?]

Why was the beautiful girl video calling him in the afternoon? Didn’t they say that they would chat again at night? Xu Xin wasn’t even wearing underpants right now, so he naturally couldn’t accept the call.

“Why did you decline my call?” Li Wenxi used the chat window to ask.

“I washed my clothes,” Xu Xin replied.

“Oh, oh.”

[Li Wenxi has requested a voice call. Would you like to accept?]

He accepted the call.

“Why are you doing the laundry in the middle of the day?” As soon as the call connected, Li Wenxi’s voice was heard.

“The clothes will dry faster at noon. They’ll be done after lunch, so it won’t affect the activities in the afternoon.”

“That makes sense. I always bath in the evening!”

“Is it appropriate for you to talk about bathing with someone you’ve just got to know?”

“Huh? Oh… Sheesh, it doesn’t matter. You won’t be able to see me anyway!”

“…Why did you request a voice call?”

“Oh, I just wanted to ask how you did this morning. How many trees did you cut?”

“More than enough to trade with you. You, on the other hand, didn’t slack off, right?”

“How could I? The first floor of my treehouse is filled with stones. I’m not working in the afternoon. I need to have a good rest. I’m exhausted,” On the other end, even Li Wenxi’s voice had become languid.

“You can go out and explore in the afternoon. Go in a direction you’ve never been to before. Don’t waste the last safe afternoon.”

“… You’re like an evil capitalist!”

“How am I a capitalist? You’re not working for me.”

“Hmm… Fine, alright. I’ll go out and take a walk around in the afternoon. Maybe I’ll find something good. Don’t forget to look for things too. Let’s trade at night after we get back to our treehouses,” Li Wenxi was clearly not in high spirits, but she still listened to his suggestion.

“Alright, alright.”

After hanging up, his clothes were dry. He put them on and rested for another half an hour. Then, he got down from the treehouse and walked in the opposite direction from where he came.

However, it didn’t take long before he stopped. The other survivors might not be able to see it, but he could see a clear dividing line.

Within the dividing line, which was where he was now, green was everywhere. At least half of everything was green-grade resources. Beyond the dividing line, it was basically a field of white, with the occasional green light.

He looked back and saw that he was now about a kilometer away from the lake. His Item Identification ability could only identify things that were at most one kilometer away. Now that he could no longer see the green light from the lake, it meant that he had reached the limit of the distance.

He looked at the vast expanse of white beyond the dividing line, hesitated for a moment, and decided to give up on leaving this resource area. The distance between resource areas was definitely quite far. Even if he left his current resource area, it would be difficult to find the next resource area. He would only be wasting time in an ocean of low-level resources. It was better to explore in the future.

Besides, he had only walked around the lake once before and had not explored the entire resource area. Now, it seemed that it was time to explore it in detail.

Xu Xin spent the entire afternoon exploring the entire resource area. As expected of the resource area, there were many good things here. He found another blue-grade orange tree.

[Orange (blue): A fruit that can be eaten raw. It tastes sweet and sour and has the effect of rousing one’s spirit. Within an hour of eating it, one will feel full of energy without any side effects.]

Full of energy? What’s the use of that? Xu Xin was a little disappointed. Was it something similar to adrenaline? Oh, perhaps eating one at a dangerous moment could cause one to unleash more strength?

No matter what, it was still a blue-grade item. Xu Xin thought for a while and decided to pick the oranges. After all, they were quite far from his treehouse. He didn’t know if the animals would eat the oranges after the novice protection period ended either. In short, it was better to pick them first.

According to his observation, the big red berries that he had picked had not changed much in two days in such hot weather, but the ordinary red berries had softened and their taste had changed a little. It should be that blue-grade food supplies had a longer shelf life.

There were more than a hundred oranges on this tree. He couldn’t possibly bring them all back because he was afraid that they would spoil if he picked them all. So, he used the same trick and only put 30 oranges in his clothes bag. Then, he peeled one and ate it.

He didn’t feel any effects when he ate it. He just felt that this orange was more delicious than any he had eaten before. When he finished the last piece though, a refreshing feeling instantly rushed into his brain, making him shiver. His mental fatigue seemed to have disappeared in an instant. Although the physical fatigue was still there, he didn’t feel it. He felt that he could continue to party!

This… This was simply a divine tool for working overtime and staying up all night!

Taking advantage of the energized feeling, Xu Xin quickly brought the remaining oranges back to the treehouse. It was less than a kilometer away, so he got back in a few minutes. He placed the oranges on the table on the third floor, then left and continued to look for other resources.

His efficiency within the one hour of the orange’s effect was extraordinarily high. Even though he did not explore the entire resource area, he still gained a lot.

[Sour Jujubes (green): A fruit that can be eaten raw. It tastes sour and can be eaten as a snack!]

[Bayberry (green): A fruit that can be eaten raw. It tastes slightly sour and doesn’t taste very good, but it can be used to make wine.]

[Abalone Mushroom (green): A type of wild fungus. It is fleshy, crisp, and tender. It is edible and has rich nutritional value. It is recommended to be eaten cooked.]

[Edible Fungus (green): A type of wild fungus. It is smooth, tender, and delicious. Edible and has rich nutritional value. It is recommended to be eaten cooked.]

He didn’t find anything special, but he did find a bunch of edible ingredients. It made sense. Now that the novice protection period was still ongoing, there were no animals on land. There were only so many things that could be obtained from the plants. This period was actually for survivors to choose the location of their treehouses. It was indeed wishful thinking to want to obtain more high-grade resources.

At this moment, Xu Xin felt his excitement slowly fade away, and he was no longer as energetic as before. With that, he knew that an hour had passed.

Feeling the changes in his body, he was very surprised, because he was still more energetic than before he ate the orange. It was as if… He had just woken up from an afternoon nap.

This… Could it be that the “no side effects” in the orange (blue)’s introduction meant that not only would it make him energized, but it would also recover his energy as fast as if he had slept for an hour?

It’s simply a divine item for workaholics and all-nighters, the favorite of capitalists!

At that instant, Xu Xin didn’t find the item useless anymore.

He wondered how long it would take for these things to grow again after they were picked, but according to the introduction of the poplar seed, since a poplar tree could be grown in 10 days, these things shouldn’t be too slow either.

After exploring for so long, Xu Xin had a rough grasp of the area. It was a square area about a kilometer in length. One kilometer might sound short, but if calculated with square meters, the place was one million square meters, which was 1500 mu of land. If he was the only one who had access to all the resources in this area, he would have an endless supply.

However, there was one thing that made him both disappointed and relieved. There seemed to be no other survivors’ treehouses around.

“Eh?” Through the layers of trees, Xu Xin noticed a blue light. He quickly walked over.

[High-grade white poplar (blue): A type of white poplar of a higher grade. Cutting it down can produce high-grade wood.]

He found another high-grade white poplar.

“Wait a minute!” Xu Xin looked at the land under the white poplar and saw that it was emitting a blue light.
