My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1224
[Chapter 1207 Small natural disaster, fire and dust storm!]
A main match basically gathers the top talents from humans and alien races.
There are many people with ambitions and dreams.
I firmly believe that if you step into this land, you will be able to stand out and change your life.
There are also many people who are extremely cautious, fearing that they will become a stepping stone for others to improve, so they always remain vigilant.
There is no doubt that Lao Dao is naturally the latter.
After discovering that he could not join the lord in a short period of time, he set a goal for the main race.
“The price is too expensive, we can’t afford it.”
Cosim hesitated for a moment, and when he saw the changes in the faces of several companions around him, he could only shake his head.
There is no doubt about the regularity of the points in the main race, otherwise they would not have saved money all the way.
But now, I suddenly heard that the price of water has increased five times.
As long as you are a normal person, you will have hesitation.
“This price is really not expensive. You have to think about the fact that I brought this water from hundreds of kilometers away. If you go back to buy it, it will cost you a lot, right?”
Not surprised by the reactions of several people, the old Taoist still said calmly.
“Master Dao, I’m different from you. I don’t have any ideals. I just want to collect some points to buy a decent modular device and bring it back to the lord for business.”
“If you have similar thoughts, it’s a coincidence that we are all going home together in this second phase.”
As soon as he heard that he was going home, Cosim’s face couldn’t help but darken a little.
This guy.
It’s really a matter of not opening the pot and picking it up. Did they save themselves all the way here because they wanted to go home?
“If you lower the price, we will buy it.”
“There’s no need to talk. If you want to buy it, just buy it. I only have five bottles of water anyway.”
Lao Dao still bites the price and reminds me by the way:
“It’s okay if you don’t want to. You came earlier, and there’s no one left behind. You can bet that they still have extra fresh water to sell, or you can bet on these people.”
Before I finished speaking, the meaning was already very obvious.
Of course there will be other competitors coming later, and they may also be bringing fresh water to sell at a lower price.
But the problem is that these people may also be like them, saving points but not spending them.
At that time, both sides will compete for these five bottles of water.
“Let’s discuss it.”
Cosim nodded and said no more.
In fact, by this moment, his throat was so dry that it felt like it was about to explode, and every cell in his body was craving for water.
Even if you want to bargain, you don’t seem to have the energy.
“This man is so determined that we can only buy water from him, that’s why we offer such a high price!”
“Then what can you do? Do you still use points to refresh merchants to try your luck?”
“No way, who made us be misled by the damn game, thinking that merchants who are refreshed every day will sell the same goods.”
“Buy it. If you don’t buy it, we may be completely wiped out in this first terrain.”
It is said to be a discussion, but in fact it can only be accepted passively.
With water, we can survive until the third stage and we will see how things go. Without water, we may not be able to survive tonight.
The five people looked miserable, and finally came to a conclusion that seemed barely feasible at the moment.
“Mal, your route is of little use here, and it won’t improve much if you continue.”
“You can transfer all your points to us later and quit.”
Cosim made up his mind and whispered to the sturdy Mal.
The latter was stunned, instead of angry he was happy, and he nodded quickly to indicate that there was no problem here.
His route is the direction of combat, but there is no need to use combat in this main game.
As for the finals
At the moment, even a few people can’t survive the first stage, let alone the eight terrains that follow.
And the most important thing is that he is the strongest among them, and his demand for food and fresh water is much greater than that of others.
Without him, at least half of the material requirements can be saved.
“I have a total of four hundred and forty points here, and I will transfer them all to you.”
Taking out the manual, Marr assigned all the race points to Cosim’s side.
The next second after the game detects that the points have returned to zero, the rules for forced withdrawal from the main competition will begin.
As his figure became a little bit unreal, all four of them could see a touch of joy appear on his face.
Similarly, if you continue to stay in the desert, you will still have to fight for a mouthful of water, but if you return to the New World, there will be as much fresh water in demand as possible.
“One person is missing, and four hundred and forty points are gained.”
“Next, each of us only needs two hundred points. There is still hope!”
After Cosim finished settling the accounts, he suddenly felt the pressure suddenly relieved.
As one of the few super territories in the New World, the Golden Eagle has currently hosted nearly 8 million survivors, and the area it occupies alone exceeds 100,000 square kilometers, almost the area of Earth’s FJ Province.
In this competition, there were a total of sixty-three “geniuses” who successfully entered.
In order to ensure that everyone has a clear division of labor, the territory has planned in advance everyone’s responsibilities, as well as the position of the captain responsible for overall command.
There are nine captains in total, and Cosim is one of them.
If the four people he led all fell in the first desert terrain, it is hard to imagine how many blank looks and criticism they would encounter when they returned to the territory.
but
“I think we should withdraw one more person, so that the remaining players will have more water, and we can get more points.”
“You are right, I can sacrifice for everyone.”
“No, no, no, your route is more suitable for survival, I’d better quit.”
Mal’s happy expression when he left made the remaining three people a little eager to move.
However, looking at Cosim’s serious expression, several people quickly closed their mouths angrily.
“I bought five bottles of water and one thousand two hundred and fifty points.”
“Hey, thanks for your business.”
The old Taoist chuckled and took out all the warm mineral water in his arms.
After the points arrived, the number on the handbook suddenly reached four digits.
Things that could have been purchased with two hundred and fifty points can now easily be purchased several times.
But this is obviously not the end yet.
“Do you need the bread from the merchant?”
“It’s also very cheap, one piece only costs 250 points.”
Taking out two large pieces of bread from another pocket, the old man shook them.
This time Cosim didn’t hesitate much: “We don’t need food yet, water. Is there any water?”
“Water? No more.”
The old Taoist couldn’t help but show a bit of regret on his face. If he had known that Tamsui was so popular, he wouldn’t have bought this bread.
But that’s right, it’s only the second night of the main game.
In the hot weather and on the road, I didn’t have much appetite.
If it can be postponed until the fourth or fifth day, then the importance of food will soon surpass that of fresh water.
“Oh well.”
“I really hope I can see you again on the road ahead.”
Looking deeply at Lao Dao, Kosim returned with Shui Yuanlu.
The old man shrugged, not caring about the threats in his words, whistled and walked back to the sand dune.
When he disappeared from the sight of several people, a familiar figure came up from the side.
Surprisingly it is the male gun brother!
“What should I say, are these guys happy and making money?”
Yu Ao’s tone was a little anxious, obviously not as calm as the veteran showed.
But that’s right, the two of them add up to a thousand points.
In addition to each person leaving fifty points for emergencies and three hundred points to buy two pointing coupons.
The remaining 600 points were all exchanged for fresh water and food.
If this can’t be sold now and points are needed in the next step, it’s going to be over. ˆ
“Why are you panicking? These people are all misers. We have many opportunities to make money.”
The old man smiled, but there was obviously some fear in his smile.
Who knows how panicked Cosim was when he went back to discuss it just now.
But fortunately, the result was good. The points spent were returned several times, allowing the two to not only get their money back, but also have the possibility to continue to leverage more funds in the future.
“Two hundred and fifty a bottle, these people are really wealthy!”
Yu Ao’s eyes widened when he heard that Lao Dao actually sold a bottle of water for five times the price.
The two people originally planned to sell it for 150 yuan, which would be considered a success. If not, they could sell it for 100 yuan.
But these two hundred and fifty points are beyond imagination.
“There’s no other way. I thought they were going to haggle over the price or something, but I didn’t expect this group of people to be ruthless. They just asked one person to retire and contribute all the points.”
Taking out the black bread from his pocket, the old man tore it in half as he spoke.
In terms of taste alone, this thing has absolutely nothing to do with deliciousness.
But in this special earth-fire desert, it is the best food to replenish physical strength.
“Half for each person, and the remaining bottle of water to drink.”
“If the bet goes wrong tomorrow, we will run away immediately after shopping, and there will be no need to make ends meet later.”
Items purchased from merchants, no matter how big or small, can be taken out when exiting.
This is the reason why the two of them were willing to take a big gamble after finding that it was difficult to merge the first few terrains.
I didn’t go with Somo, as they were barely able to enter the main game.
Being able to get through the first Earth Fire Desert was considered a stroke of luck, and I couldn’t even hope to reach the finals all the way.
Thinking about it this way, it is better to throw all your points on worthless food and fresh water and tire yourself to death.
Let’s settle the score in the end.
It would be better to accumulate points, buy something you can take out, and quit the competition directly.
“It just so happens that there will be another minor natural disaster tomorrow. We can avoid it by returning to the first stage, so we won’t suffer this old sin.”
The temperature at night in the second stage has begun to drop sharply, and before midnight, it is already about 15 degrees.
Eating black bread, Yu Ao nodded in agreement.
Although I am extremely tired physically, the points I just recorded are exciting, and most of my fatigue has gone away.
In this way, after resting until they woke up in the middle of the night, the two quietly stood up and walked around the four people resting around the businessman.
Following the path we came from, we returned to the first stage of coverage again.
Not to mention, the temperature really started to rise abnormally.
The further you go to the starting point, the warmer it becomes.
With this energy, from dark to light, the male gunman stopped walking tiredly.
“Huh, I’m exhausted.”
Lao Dao sat down and started to have trouble breathing.
Taking the merchant’s place as the starting point, the two of them had already walked more than thirty kilometers.
Although you can continue to walk back with force, but if the merchant does not appear nearby by then.
If you want to use the little remaining energy, it will be difficult to return to the second stage to purchase equipment.
Finding a higher sand dune to sit down on, Yu Ao forced himself to look around.
It is still an endless stretch of yellow, with no other color embellishments visible.
The silence makes people think that they have arrived in the realm of death.
The only difference is that compared with the previous two days, the wind and sand today have obviously fluctuated.
Fortunately, when it reached the edge of the first stage, the storm was suppressed by an invisible force, and the wind was only slightly stronger.
“The next step is to gamble on luck.”
Opening the game panel, the race time has arrived at 7:30 in the morning on the third day.
According to the time when merchants are refreshed at the beginning, around eight o’clock is the time with the highest probability.
Waiting minute by minute.
As seven o’clock suddenly turned into eight o’clock, the male gunman subconsciously stood up and looked around. The old man who was still recovering his strength under the sand dune with his eyes closed also became energetic and quickly stood up to search.
“No?”
Looking around, there was no trace of any merchants around.
Obviously, the two people’s predictions were slightly wrong, and they did not bet on the appearance patterns of businessmen.
“It’s a pity, but it’s not a loss. We have worked hard.”
Yu Ao looked around and could only say comfort.
The remaining physical strength is no longer enough to support them to search nearby, even if the refreshed merchant is only a few kilometers away.
Now, the two can only choose to return to the second stage along the same path.
It would be best if you can meet the merchants from the first stage during this period. If you don’t meet them, you can only buy the equipment and return.
“Let’s go.” The old man looked obviously disappointed, but in the end he couldn’t say anything.
The two set off reluctantly, their steps becoming heavier than at night.
The wind blows the sand.
The rolled up sand buried all traces of steps, and the footprints in the night were almost impossible to find.
After walking out for a while, the two of them could only stop, tear off the lining of their coats and cover their mouths and noses.
There is no way, the sand and dust are too violent!
The strong wind brought sharp sand particles, which pierced the skin like steel needles.
Even in the first stage, the impact of minor natural disasters still brings troubles that cannot be ignored.
The further you go towards the second stage, the bigger the dust becomes.
The blue sky in the distance even darkened, and suddenly became chaotic, leaving only a hazy yellow ocean floating and shrouded.
The wind is mixed with the whistling and crashing sounds of sand grains, like a hundred ghosts walking through the night, howling miserably.
The originally scorching desert became dark and gloomy at this time, as if the end of the world was coming.
“I wonder what’s going on with the lord?”
Chocked by the wind and sand, Yu Ao couldn’t help but feel a little worried and looked back at the sky behind him.
Although it is much better than far away, it has also begun to change. Obviously, the persistent Gou will eventually be eliminated in the first terrain.
Including the place where the two were standing just now, everything has been covered
etc
what is that? !
For a moment, Yu Ao was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.
The old man next to him didn’t pay attention at first, but he turned around and realized after walking two steps.
“What’s wrong? Are you tired?”
“No, look at that.” Yu Ao raised his hand dullly and pointed to the sand dune where he was standing just now.
Subconsciously looking in the direction he pointed, Lao Dao was also stunned.
Under the dark sky, I saw a straight figure like a pillar, embedded in the sand and motionless, as if it was not affected by any natural disaster.
Especially when the eyes were gathered together, “Zhuli” turned around and faced the two of them.
As the saying goes, there is no place to be found even if you step through iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
The next second, the two of them reacted at the same time and ran like crazy.
“I, I want to buy something!”
As soon as he arrived, the male gunman roared out of breath.
The businessman standing in the dust didn’t care about the tone, and still handed out a sales bill with a smile.
Open and read.
Look at the familiar fresh water at the top, and see the price of fifty is still marked at the back.
The two of them finally couldn’t bear the excitement in their hearts, sat down on the ground and laughed silly.
Betting..
It’s a good bet!
