Level 1 – "Livable Zone"
Survival Difficulty: 1 Safe and Stable Very Small Entity
Level 1 is a large, sprawling warehouse with concrete floors and walls, exposed rebar, and a mist of unknown origin hovering in the lower levels.
The accumulated water on the ground is formed by condensation of fog.
It only took a few seconds for Leon to stand up from the puddle and his wet clothes became dry again.
He glanced at the water, which was only a centimeter or two deep, and scoffed, "Is this considered groundwater?"
In Minecraft, no matter how high Steve falls from, as long as there is water under his feet when he falls, he will be immune to all falling damage.
"It's a bit excessive, but I like it."
Look around. Level 1 is different from level 0. This level has a constant supply of water and electricity.
As long as proper precautions are taken, homeless people can live here indefinitely.
It also has stairs, elevators, separate rooms and corridors.
At this time, the shelf close to the wall in the distance caught his attention. There was a cardboard box on the shelf. After careful observation, he did not find any danger.
The cardboard box is just an ordinary cardboard box with no markings on it.
After thinking for a moment, Leon decided to go back to the 'main world' first and call Eric over to guard the door, so that he wouldn't have to waste half a day if he died after finally reaching Level 1 and then had to go back to Level 0.
"go home!"
As he finished speaking, a mosaic wooden door appeared out of thin air in front of him. He reached out and pushed the door open.
Eric, who heard the noise in the space, looked at Leon in surprise.
Leon looked at Eric, whose complexion had recovered, and asked with a smile: "How do you feel?"
"I'm fine, except I'm a little hungry... Did you go to another level?"
"Well, I found Level 1..."
After returning to the space, Leon's health and hunger points began to recover rapidly. In this [main world], he seemed to be in [peace mode].
"Level 1?"
Eric looked confused and puzzled, which made Leon at a loss. He asked directly:
"You don't know Level 1? Then how can you say you're from Level 0? What organization do you belong to?"
I originally hoped that Leon would think that Eric was a member of the fusion version of MEG organization, but the current situation seems that he should be from another organization.
Eric quickly explained, "I was hired by A-Sync to explore the back room. I found some graffiti and scattered notes on the walls and learned that the space I was in was Level 0. The company's researchers speculated that there were other numbered spaces, but they haven't been able to confirm this."
Eric's words made Leon not know how to describe how he felt now.
MEG is a homeless self-help group, formed spontaneously by some homeless people who entered the "Back Room", while A-Sync is a company that opened the portal to the "Back Room" through an accidental experiment in reality.
After the discovery of Level 0, the company's top management learned about it, and then these guys suddenly decided to use the space of Level 0, which is almost several times the size of the Earth, to develop real estate, which triggered a series of subsequent stories.
"This back room is such a mess..."
But whether it was messy or not didn't really matter to him. He just wanted to dig some things to exchange for energy points, and then find a chance to return to the [front hall]. He had no other desires.
"Anyway, there are so many levels in the back room, and it's infinitely large at any time. Digging a little by myself won't have much impact... Well, it shouldn't be a big deal."
"Eric, hold the door open for me while I explore Level 1."
Eric nodded and stood up from the ground. The hunger in his stomach made him feel a little weak, but he had no problem pushing the door.
When Leon turned around, he suddenly found two doors appeared on the wall.
"…"
'Is there a separate door on each floor?'
He had already imagined the scene where the walls would be densely packed with wooden doors from now on. He walked over, stretched out his hand to open the wooden door, and the other side was Level 1. After opening another door, it was Level 0 just as he imagined.
"If this makes it easier to travel across floors..."
The reason why Eric was shocked before was because he saw a new wooden door appear out of thin air on the foggy wall.
Judging from Leon's reaction now, he seems to be unaware of the appearance of the new wooden door.
"Well, I'll record this later."
Following Leon's request, Eric walked to the wooden door to prevent it from closing automatically, while he was also observing the unfamiliar environment around him.
Leon walked to the table, reached out, opened the cardboard box and saw the items inside.
There aren't many things.
Two grey thermoses, a flashlight and a piece of cake that looked and tasted good.
Leon did not check the items here, but put everything directly into the backpack, then turned around and walked towards the wooden door without hesitation, but when he was halfway there, he suddenly remembered something.
He went back to the shelf, took out a pickaxe and knocked on it.
"I almost forgot about you!"
The shelf doesn't play a big role, but if you don't want anything you pick up for free, you are not a qualified Steve at all.
"It's quite hard…"
With the repeated knocking, more and more cracks appeared on the shelves, but the cracks spread much slower than the walls of Level 0.
With a slight bang, the shelf turned into a palm-sized cube and flew into his body.
After finishing all this, Leon left with satisfaction. Eric waited until he returned to the space and immediately closed the wooden door.
Only then did Leon open his backpack and check the items he had just obtained.

"Gray almond water can actually restore hunger!"
Almond Water is an item found in most levels of the Back Room. It is also one of the most practical and in-demand items available to wanderers.
There are a total of four types of almond water found in the [Back Room], and they are distinguished by the color of the thermos bottles.
The four types of almond water are gray, red, blue and green.
Each has special effects.
Almond water can be said to be an important source of nutrition in the [back room]. One bottle can provide 600-700 calories. An adult only needs three bottles to maintain a day's energy consumption.
"Eric, go on!"
Eric hurriedly caught the almond water and asked in confusion: "What is this?"
There are no supplies refreshed at Level 0, so it is normal that Eric has never seen almond water.
Leon smiled as he took out the cake from his backpack and took a small sip to savor it. After hearing Eric's explanation, he said, "Almond water can provide the energy your body needs and also restore your depleted spirit. It's a valuable commodity in the back room."
"As for the taste, you'll know when you try it."
Almond water has a wide range of uses and can even resist some entities and tame them.
