Chapter 29 Eliminates Two People

"Let's open the package from [Sister Is The Queen] first."

"The box is a bit heavy."

Lu Xian pushed the cardboard package.

Then, he cut open the package wrapping.

Inside, several thick, brand-new books and a small speaker appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Books? A speaker?"

Lu Xian looked surprised and peered closer:

Book One: 《I Am Your Father》.

Book Two: 《Don't Lose Because You Can't Express Yourself》.

Book Three: 《High Emotional Intelligence Is Knowing How To Speak Well》.

"..."

【Hahaha, what kind of weird books are these ⊙▽⊙?】

【It feels like it's implying something, I'm not sure, let me look again (⊙o⊙)?】

Lu Xian raised an eyebrow, then turned on the fist-sized speaker.

In an instant, the speaker began playing a song:

'Sister is the Queen, confidence shines bright, if you love then come, if not, I'll be wild…'

Lu Xian: "..."

He silently gave a thumbs up.

"Ahem, thank you to this [Queen] for the package, thank you."

He'd been pranked by the viewers again.

"Let's continue opening packages."

He picked up the otherworld express package and felt that it was heavy.

And it was extremely cold.

"This package is sent from [Hogwarts Apprentice Dun Dun Dun], let's open it and see."

This ice-blue crystal box had a small latch.

He pulled the small latch, and the crystal box opened instantly.

A white frost staff, forty centimeters long and two fingers thick, shaped like intertwined vines and embedded with ice-blue crystals, lay inside the box.

Beside the frost staff was an aquamarine ring, crystal clear.

【Cosplay prop?】

【Hahaha, this is a magic wand / doge.】

【Feels quite novel.】

Just as the viewers in the livestream room were discussing it in the comments, Lu Xian picked up the frost staff, which could even be called a small vine stick.

A wave of information flooded into Lu Xian's mind.

{frost staff: qi system D-rank weapon, can control and interconvert ice, wind, and water-type skills; the magic energy stone can activate ten D-rank qi system skills.}

"A D-rank prop weapon??"

Lu Xian looked at the frost staff in his hand, his pupils dilated, and he was deeply shocked inside.

Then he picked up the ring.

Another piece of information came:

{Frost Impact · Inheritance Ring: Semi-permanent D-rank prop, can directly learn the D-rank Frost Impact skill.}

Frost Impact: Uses 5 points of qi value to condense the surrounding water vapor into a cone of frost, dealing ice damage to a single target within 5 meters, doubling damage against fire types, and causing 3 seconds of freezing paralysis to life forms below C-rank, with a 20-minute cooldown.

"Holy crap!"

"A skill ring? Semi-permanent is much better than the temporary skills you get from exchanging!"

"This thing can also be sent by express?!"

Lu Xian couldn't help but be dumbfounded, his heart shocked, and his emotions couldn't settle for a long time.

If combined with his 'Great Wind Blow', wouldn't it be able to transform into a cold-wind version of a level-eight gale?!

What does this mean?

What high-temperature environment, what Summer Great Escape?

That's just a High-Temperature Beast, showing off before an expert, laughable, truly laughable.

Thinking of this.

Lu Xian took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart.

He smiled and expressed his thanks:

"Thank you to this Hogwarts Apprentice Dun Dun Dun for the gift."

"I really like it, thank you, boss!"

"At the same time, thank you all for participating in today's express delivery."

Survival Talent Myriad Heavens Express.

It's insanely powerful.

The comments in the livestream room were speculating:

【I've done the calculations, there must be something fishy about this.】

【I think there's a problem.】

【What kind of express is this, Brother Lu?】

Everyone asked one after another.

"Just a normal cosplay prop."

Lu Xian laughed and answered casually.

Everyone in the livestream room expressed disbelief, saying they would unfollow if he didn't say, and they kept spamming:

【Don't Lose Because You Can't Express Yourself.】

But Lu Xian believed he definitely couldn't say it now.

Otherwise, it would be transmitted directly to other people's livestream rooms the next second.

If a bunch of jealous people came over to backstab him, wouldn't that be annoying to death?

So he didn't say much more.

Lu Xian just secretly drank a bottle of ice water to celebrate, his body temperature locked at 36.5℃ for an hour.

"Today's packages are done, let's explore the cafeteria kitchen, the kitchen should have refrigeration..."

He put the packages into his dimensional pouch.

He was just about to walk toward the cafeteria work area.

Suddenly.

A loud bang!

In an instant.

The ceiling fan spinning crazily above his head, after the loud noise, visibly slowed down until it stopped working.

"Huh?"

"Power outage??"

Lu Xian looked up, the happy smile that had just risen on his face gradually fading.

He frowned, his expression puzzled, and turned to walk out of the cafeteria.

Attempting to find the source of the loud noise just now.

Suddenly.

Another huge explosion sound came.

It seemed the sound was a bit far from his position.

"What's going on?"

The people in the livestream room also expressed they didn't know and went to the other nineteen people's livestream rooms to ask about the situation.

Soon, a plume of thick black smoke rose rapidly following the explosion.

The problem he was most worried about had occurred.

"The school's power distribution room is on fire?"

Lu Xian frowned.

He learned from the viewers in the livestream room and got some bad news.

Someone went to the scene to check the situation and received a side quest:

Extinguish the fire.

The reason was that the power distribution room had exploded due to the high temperature, causing a fire.

In other words.

The power is out...

With this power outage, all the cooling and heat dissipation equipment like freezers, refrigerators, air conditioners, and fans.

Were directly rendered useless.

And in this high-temperature Survival World, once the power is out, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Family members, even the power distribution room has exploded from the heat."

Lu Xian said.

He still had a generator in hand, so he wasn't afraid of having no power.

The premise was that he had enough fuel to use the machine.

But just in case, he still needed to go and collect more props.

The current survival time had only just passed two hours.

There was still nearly five long days ahead!

However, before that, he had to go into the cafeteria work area to search for supplies.

Generally, cafeterias are equipped with cold storage rooms and frozen fresh-keeping warehouses.

A cold storage room is much more useful than the freezers outside.

Moreover, in the coming days, besides avoiding the high temperature, he also needed to prevent hunger.

So this cafeteria would be the top priority for the whole school.

Lu Xian came to the cafeteria's backstage work area.

He saw a closed metal door with a sign on it that read:

Cold Storage Room.

He pushed open the metal door.

A cold current from inside instantly rushed out.

Like drinking ice in the scorching heat, his whole body felt incredibly comfortable.

In the tens of square meters of the cold storage room, there were three large six-door refrigerators, four large three-door freezers filled with ingredients and frozen products, and several rows of storage shelves.

"They are all D-rank props!"

Lu Xian and the viewers in his livestream room were both stunned.

They never expected.

This cold storage room was the biggest treasure in the entire school.

The D-rank props here seemed worthless, appearing seven at once.

"This place is mine now."

Lu Xian said firmly.

The ownership of the freezer in the convenience store just now was discovered by others, and he chose to split it.

But these things in front of him.

Were all discovered by him first.

Want him to share them for free?

Impossible.

And there were ingredients in here, which were food for the next few days.

People are selfish, only a fool would give them away for free to share with others.

Want them? Trade something for them.

【Damn, this is too lucky!】

【Confirmed, the Streamer is a lucky dog!】

【Hahaha, this is so interesting, I'm going to tell the others here that the Streamer wants to hog everything!】

【Holy crap, you drama-loving jerk.】

The comments in Lu Xian's livestream room were constant, and the number of online viewers reached 500,000.

"But there is a serious problem now."

Lu Xian said while checking the refrigerators.

"The power is out now."

"If there is no power supply, the freezing equipment here will thaw the contents in less than half a day."

"Plus this is high-temperature weather, these frozen meat products will stink by tomorrow if not processed."

These D-rank props would just become useless ornaments.

As he said this, he also took some meat and fruits and vegetables and stored them in his dimensional pouch, just in case.

The one-cubic-meter dimensional pouch was stuffed full.

Forcing him to take out the bone-shattering flying hammer.

"Going out to get some fuel."

"I remember there was a vegetable delivery truck parked next to the cafeteria."

Lu Xian only found a 25-liter white empty water container in the kitchen, and conveniently took a small knife and a piece of soft water hose, then carried them out.

The engine needed oil, and it burned gasoline.

Outside, it was scorching hot, and even the cicadas were silent.

"I suspect the explosion in the power distribution room just now was only the beginning."

Lu Xian came to the truck, opened the fuel cap, punctured the anti-theft filter, and inserted the soft hose to siphon the oil.

"I'm worried that when the weather gets too hot, these cars will spontaneously combust."

Some people in the livestream room said it was unlikely, while others said it was very possible, especially for new energy electric vehicles.

"Did anyone else encounter any High-Temperature Beast?"

Lu Xian asked.

The existence of the livestream room was equivalent to having a group of enthusiastic viewers offering him advice and scouting for information.

【High-Temperature Beast? What is that?】

【Not really? Not sure.】

【Don't know about the High-Temperature Beast, but I know some people are already coming toward the cafeteria, hehehe~】

【Streamer, the air conditioning at the library is broken, they heard you have a cold storage room here, and they are all rushing over, danger!】

【A bunch of idiots, the power is already out, do they know what use a cold storage room is?】

【Some of them said that cafeterias are usually equipped with backup generators to prevent power outages during cooking, that's why they are rushing over.】

"Backup generators?"

Lu Xian shook his head after seeing the comments.

"I already looked just now, there is no generator."

"The viewers in the livestream room watched the whole process too."

He did have one generator.

But that was obtained by doing a quest.

Meanwhile, the 25-liter container wasn't filled; he only siphoned half before he couldn't anymore.

Lu Xian had just screwed on the cap.

When he saw two people holding an umbrella, walking hurriedly along the shade of the trees in the distance, seemingly coming toward him.

"Are those two people coming to the cafeteria?"

Lu Xian asked, holding the fuel tank in one hand and a sunshade umbrella in the other.

【Yes, that man is named Wang Xin, and the woman is named Li Jiamin.】

【They are coming for the cold storage room, Brother, do you want to take them down?】

【Brother Lu says, the woman is okay, the man can get lost.】

【???】

The comments in the livestream room responded one after another.

In terms of news, they were much better informed than Lu Xian.

"It's really annoying, always causing conflict for no reason."

Lu Xian said helplessly.

You don't look for trouble.

Trouble comes to you.

【Then just share it? Cooperate together?】

【Cooperate my ass, it would make my Brother Lu look like a coward.】

【If the Streamer is a saint, I'm unfollowing, Brother Lu, you said you wanted to hog it all.】

【Isn't win-win cooperation good? Don't be so selfish, your values are too twisted, do you understand unity? The cafeteria isn't his, why shouldn't he let others come?】

【Twisted your sister! Those people are all eyeing Brother Lu's weapon, what good intentions could they have?】

【First come, first served, why should he give it to others?】

The viewers in the livestream room immediately started arguing non-stop.

"Emmm..."

Lu Xian watched the screen full of arguing comments and was speechless.

He wasn't too worried about anyone robbing him right now.

Even if those people's physical attribute values had individuals with a single attribute exceeding 10 points.

These ten attribute points didn't provide a very large boost in the Survival World.

His attributes were relatively balanced, two 7s and one 6; even if they put all points into a single attribute, they would be at most twice as strong as him.

But he had the bone-shattering flying hammer in hand!

Close range for hammering, long range for throwing, a ranged attack within ten meters!

A hit guarantees injury!

If anyone explicitly stated they wanted to rob his 'territory'.

A C-rank hammer hitting a newbie could hammer them to death on the spot.

{Ding dong~ Currently, two people have been eliminated in the Summer Great Escape, 18 people remain.}

Suddenly.

An alert sound spread to everyone present.

Lu Xian's expression became serious, feeling it was a bit sudden.

"Just now, two people were eliminated?"

How were they eliminated?

Lu Xian quickly found the answer.

"The two people who were going to the power distribution room to extinguish the fire earlier, one was burned to death while fighting the fire, and the other had too weak a constitution, got heatstroke, collapsed, and was baked to death by the sun?"

Caught off guard, it was truly unexpected.

Earlier, a group of people envied those who took the firefighting quest.

Didn't expect that, not long after, the parties involved directly kicked the bucket and were eliminated?

Lu Xian sighed inwardly, one must act according to one's abilities.

Going to fight a fire in a high-temperature environment is not a problem.

But this is a Survival World, you can't measure it with the logic of the outside world.

The first rule of the Summer Great Escape is that body temperature cannot exceed 46℃, otherwise, death is certain.

And the sun here is eerily scorching.

Being in the sun for a while makes body temperature soar, causing problems instantly.

"Brother, are you the otherworld express Lu Xian?"

The pair of man and woman from the distance, holding a sunshade umbrella together, had already arrived at the entrance of the cafeteria.

The man was Wang Xin, and he was as hot as a monkey's butt, his face flushed red.

He waved his hand to greet Lu Xian.

Lu Xian noticed the body temperature displayed on this person's wrist:

【40.1℃】

I'm afraid this Wang Xin's body is currently in a 'high fever' state.

He glanced at Li Jiamin's wrist, but couldn't see clearly from his angle.

Lu Xian just nodded calmly.

He could roughly guess the other party's thoughts.

And the young woman beside him, Li Jiamin, who had some looks, asked eagerly:

"I heard you found a cold storage room?"

"Are there any frozen prop items inside?"

"Our body temperature is over 40℃, and we feel terrible all over... I wonder if you could help us?"

The two looked at him anxiously.

They had both gotten the news from the livestream room, but wanted to confirm it from Lu Xian's own mouth.

"I did find a cold storage room, and there are frozen items inside."

"And there are quite a lot of ingredients."

Lu Xian nodded slightly and paused for a moment.

"Really?!"

"That's great!"

Wang Xin and Li Jiamin were instantly excited, and their body temperatures even rose sharply by 0.5℃.

However, Lu Xian's next words left them both stunned.
