Chapter 180 The Side Effects of Night
Chapter 180 The Side Effects of Night
To be honest, even if Lu Youyou didn't belong to any gang, she still wouldn't want to go after Gu Jingchen said that.
It is said that birds of a feather flock together. Even if her friends have no good points and are full of bad points, how good can she be?
Gu Jingchen openly belittled her friend and then invited her to be his business partner. Who can say what his true intentions are?
She already had some reservations about working at Gu Jingchen's base.
But the thought of being with friends helps to dispel this unpleasant feeling.
However, it now seems that this base is undesirable, and becoming a partner is also undesirable.
It's always better to be cautious than overconfident.
The intelligent robotic arm has retrieved the yellow treasure chest.
Lu Youyou got out of bed, walked to the car door, and opened the treasure chest.
[Amplifier*1: Can project your voice up to 200 meters away.]
[Deep-sea fish oil*1]
A loudspeaker capable of transmitting sound 200 meters…
Aside from deterring unfamiliar vehicles from approaching her car, Lu Youyou hasn't thought of any other use for it yet.
She put the loudspeaker into her backpack compartment and took the fish oil to the sofa bed.
Mix a cup of water at a suitable temperature and take one fish oil capsule with it.
She should take better care of her health.
After drinking the water, Lu Youyou lay back down in bed.
Suddenly, she sat up straight.
Use the tongs to remove the wire mesh from the stove, then throw a piece of wood into the stove.
The content on the electronic screen directly in front of the stove changed; a wooden block was added.
Lu Youyou clicked on the word "wood block," and the stove fuel changed from smokeless charcoal to wood blocks, with a wisp of white smoke rising from the stove.
The air purifier was placed on the coffee table, and it did a certain degree of purification for the white smoke.
The unique aroma of wood, with a slight smoky scent, wafted to Lu Youyou's nose.
It wasn't pungent at all; in fact, she quite liked the smell.
"Really!"
Lu Youyou was quite happy.
She was anxious because the amount of smokeless charcoal was decreasing, and she decided to try anything in desperation.
I never imagined that the stove could actually burn wood blocks, instead of only being used with smokeless charcoal.
Combustion produces smoke, which accumulates in enclosed spaces and can be quite noticeable, posing a health risk.
Therefore, you need to open the windows every now and then to ventilate the room.
However, this disadvantage is insignificant compared to the advantages.
Lu Youyou has more than 5,000 wooden blocks in her backpack, so she won't have to worry about running out of fuel for the time being.
She threw 100 pieces of wood into the stove and lay back down on the bed.
Still feeling uneasy, I got out of bed and opened the window a crack.
That way, I shouldn't get poisoned and die while I'm sleeping, right?
Back in bed, Lu Youyou felt relieved.
She wanted to sleep, but after drinking coffee, she wasn't sleepy at all.
She watched the people chatting on the public screen.
She didn't feel sleepy until four in the morning and finally fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was 4:30 pm.
Lu Youyou felt dizzy and lightheaded, as if she were enveloped by an invisible dome, and even talking to herself made her feel like she was hearing a buzzing sound.
But she dared not drink coffee in the afternoon.
She needs to adjust her sleep schedule so that she can have coffee when she wakes up in the morning and go to bed when she feels sleepy at night.
So, with a heavy head, Lu Youyou boiled water and then took two slices of dry bread from the drawer.
She nibbled on the food bit by bit, holding each bite in her mouth for several minutes before chewing.
I have no appetite whatsoever, I don't want to do anything, I just want to lie there.
The water was boiling, but I hadn't even finished a slice of bread.
Forcing herself to chew faster, Lu Youyou prepared a glass of warm water for herself and drank it all in one gulp.
When I tilted my head back, my head felt even dizzier.
He exuded a faint aura of death.
hum~
Your friend has sent you a message.
Lu Youyou didn't want to speak or control Xiao Lu, so she just thought about it in her mind.
Unfold the curtain and navigate to the private chat page.
[Wang Qiao: Are you sleepy or having trouble sleeping?]
[Player 6666: I'm so sleepy, I can't get enough sleep.]
[Wang Qiao: That means you feel pretty safe in your environment. Those who don't feel safe can't sleep at all. I made a lot of gold coins selling sleeping pills. By the way, has your monster shop refreshed?]
Whether she was sleep-deprived or had lost her memory, Lu Youyou only remembered the Monster Shop refresh after Wang Qiao reminded her.
Before this, she had completely forgotten about it.
[Lu Youyou: I'll go check right away.]
Open the Monster Shop; the items there have been refreshed.
[Cooling Oil: Valued at 5 Gold Coins, limited to 50 per purchase. It stimulates nerve endings with a cooling sensation, causing a feeling of excitement in the brain through nerve conduction, thus effectively dispelling drowsiness.]
[Lemon Aromatherapy: Valued at 10 Gold Coins, limited to 50 per purchase. Its limonene and other ingredients have a refreshing and invigorating effect, promoting mental agility.]
[Vibration Reminder: Valued at 50 Gold Coins, limited to 10 per purchase. Once activated, it will vibrate continuously when it detects the user's drowsiness until the drowsiness disappears.]
[Smart Spray: Valued at 50 Gold Coins, limited to 10 per purchase. Use to alleviate memory loss, laziness, and poor concentration caused by darkness, restoring your original IQ, but not increasing it.]
The descriptions of supplies that used to be so simple that they could be read at a glance were now being read word by word by Lu Youyou.
Even so, she had to go back and read it again after finishing it.
Because she was only reading individual words, without connecting them in her mind.
After reading it over and over again, Lu Youyou's eyes suddenly widened when she came across the description of the smart spray.
She said she was wondering how she had become so mentally challenged, not only feeling dizzy and lightheaded, but also experiencing a decline in comprehension and memory. It turned out to be a side effect of the darkness!
She bought 10 Smart Sprays directly, paying 450 gold coins after the discount.
Lu Youyou quickly sprayed herself with a "smart spray," and felt her senses sharpen, even regaining her appetite.
Her stomach was cramping with hunger, and with trembling hands, she tore open the bread bag and wolfed it down.
That was close; I almost starved to death.
After finishing her bread and drinking a glass of water, Lu Youyou's hands finally stopped trembling.
Once her mind returned to normal, she noticed problems she hadn't been aware of before.
The effects of darkness on people are different.
Some people feel insecure about their environment, which manifests as insomnia as an extreme condition. They may also experience other symptoms, but Lu Youyou doesn't know for sure yet.
Having a motorhome and a strong pet makes one feel safe in their environment, which manifests as a lack of sleep.
It is also accompanied by side effects such as decreased memory, reduced comprehension, and sluggish physical reaction.
Having not eaten for a long time, Lu Youyou didn't feel hungry before spraying the smart spray.
She had no doubt that she would starve to death if she continued to go without food.
However, she didn't know how she died when she starved to death.
Because her body was already damaged, she had lost her senses and responsiveness.
Thinking of this, Lu Youyou broke out in a cold sweat.
With so many days of polar night, she had unknowingly developed so many side effects, becoming increasingly forgetful without realizing it.
If Wang Qiao hadn't reminded her, she would have forgotten about the existence of the Monster Shop.
She clearly remembered buying things from the Monster Shop a few days before the polar night.
