The system highlighted the trucks transporting snow on the ground, making it very conspicuous.
The villagers transported the snow to the alchemy furnace to be burnt. Next,the snow would gradually be melted and was transferred to the boiler to provide heat energy to the heating pipes. At the same time, an invisible force was slightly accumulating.
It was the authority from the “snow” being obtained!
Su Mo was thrilled to have discovered another remarkable property of the alchemy furnace.
As expected from a 70,000 survival point upgrade that also required a powerful mechanism built from energy stones. Its capabilities of it were not as simple as seen from the surface!
However, after checking his total level of authorization, Su Mo could not help but wonder, ‘That doesn’t add up. Is it because I haven’t returned to the territory? That’s why I can’t receive the 0.02% authority?
‘Why hasn’t the total increased?’
6.58%.
This was the level of authorization that had been fixed for a long time. Thus, Su Mo was sure he could not have remembered it wrong.
The 0.02% authority obtained was a system prompt so logically speaking, it could not have been an error.
‘Could I have possibly used it somehow?’
Su Mo had a headache as he thought about the “Ocean” authority, which was shown to be used recently.
‘They say that you make mistakes when you get drunk, but when it comes to me, I make a mistake while sleeping?’
Su Mo could not recall what kind of position he had been sleeping in to have used the 0.02% ocean authority and what he had used it on.
‘It would not be a loss if I had accidentally exchanged the 0.02% authority for something beneficial.
‘I’ll just have to pay more attention next time.
‘However, if I used it on something useless, not only would I have wasted the authority, I might have triggered the increase in threat level. That would be a huge loss!’
“System, can you detect what I’ve used the Ocean authority on?”
Su Mo asked as he glanced down at the basin below him.
In terms of familiarity with authority, the system had a higher understanding than the game, similar to a dimensionality reduction.
Unfortunately, unlike the countless inquiries in the past, Su Mo’s question was destined to be unanswered this time.
There was no prompt at all. The system was indifferent in unimportant situations and did not threaten the host’s life.
‘This is troublesome!’
Su Mo could not do anything except helpless watch the moving crowd below. He suppressed his thought for the time being and returned his attention to the territory that he had been away from for a few days.
He nodded with satisfaction as he observed the village.
‘Good job! The snow within eight to night kilometers have been cleared! At this rate, it wouldn’t be a problem to clear about 20 kilometers before the next disaster!’
From a view above, the ground looked like a fluffy and soft white cream cake.
The location of Hope Village looked as if someone had spooned out a portion, revealing a round depression.
The diameter of the depression had reached over eight kilometers. It was enough space for the villagers to carry out daily activities and exploration.
Su Mo controlled the view and moved closer.
Before the system exited a bird’s-eye view spanning thousands of miles, Su Mo quickly turned his eyes to the village again to see what had happened after he left the village.
Four, five seconds passed, and his view went from dark to bright.
This time, his field of vision was from an altitude of 60 meters.
Although the building and villagers below were still very small, it was enough for him to observe the entire village.
‘Not bad! They’ve already built a two-story prefabricated house. It must be a public building for the village.
‘It’s a pity I can’t see the words on the sign and can’t control the view angle to go inside. Otherwise, it would be cool to see what they’ve done!’
It was about eight in the morning.
Most villagers had already gotten out of bed and washed up, while a few people were still gathered around the public sink.
The village did not seem to be heavily populated.
However, quite a few people gathered at the square at the village entrance, and Su Mo could not figure out what they were doing.
‘Another exchange fair?’
At the height of a nineteen-story building, Su Mo could not immediately identify the lively scene.
He could only vaguely see someone setting up a stall with many objects, enthusiastically trying to attract customers.
Another person held a sign with large black letters and walked around the crowd, shouting something.
Some people had their personal pots and pans out, boiling oil inside them. Su Mo could not see the ingredients being deep-fried but saw a billowing smoke that rose from it.
The scene was extremely lively, like temple fairs in small villages and towns in a civilized era.
Su Mo was used to seeing the desertedness of other territories in the mountains and could not help but feel a warmth inside his heart after seeing how lively his territory was.
Suddenly, he noticed hundreds of soldiers had surrounded the area and could not help but curse, ‘What a waste of public resources! Why would Li Hu have hundreds of soldiers just to maintain order at an exchange fair?’
Although an exchange fair with a thousand villagers was a considerable size and would have a huge crowd, it was still a little overboard to have so many soldiers dispatched just to maintain order.
Having no way to communicate with the basin, Su Mo could only secretly remark in his heart after seeing the scene.
‘I’ll take care of you when I’m back!’
