My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1509
[1500. Chapter 1477 A desperate start, an impossible mission!]
Everyone was thrown roughly into the sea and could only float up and down with the waves passively.
Some unlucky guys who were not good at swimming almost chose to surrender. Fortunately, the game did not go too far and gave these people a lifebuoy.
Otherwise, thousands of people would be eliminated in the preparation stage alone before the game even starts.
“What’s going on? Why is the preparation space on the sea? Aren’t they kidding us?”
“Shit, look at the game panel. It says that we have to establish faith or find faith in the gambling space in order to know the location of the island to which faith belongs in this space. Otherwise, we can only float!”
“Then why don’t we just not come to this space? Isn’t it better to just stay in the gambling space?”
“No, it says here that as long as we fall asleep, we will automatically come here.”
“Shit, doesn’t that mean we have to struggle in the gambling space during the day and soak in the water at night?”
“It seems like that. Who the hell can stand this? I’ve only been in the bath for ten minutes and I feel like I’m going to die!”
“It’s so hot and I’m so thirsty. Can anyone give me a drink of water?”
“I quit, I surrender! I don’t want to play anymore!”
“.”
Although the game provided lifebuoys to help some unlucky people who were not good at swimming, more and more people began to choose to quit, not wanting to endure this inhuman torture.
They were here just to hang out for a while, and planned to stay safe and stable in the gambling space for a year before making any decisions.
After a year, human development in the wasteland will definitely become more stable.
If you go out at this time, you can happily enjoy the fruits of other people’s labor.
However, having said that, after the person who surrendered happily confirmed the second prompt of the game.
A new prompt floated out from the game panel, leaving these people dumbfounded!
[Record]: You have chosen to surrender, so you will not be able to leave this space until the gambling fight is over!
“Shit, even if we surrender we can’t leave here? Do we have to drift on the sea for a year?”
“Oh my god, I’ve only been soaking in it for half an hour and I already feel like I’m going to die. If I were to soak in it for a year, wouldn’t that kill me?”
“What’s going on? The gambling fight hasn’t even started yet, can’t you send us out? I don’t want to stay here anymore!”
“Hahaha, you idiots who were just trying to kill time, now you’ve finally figured out the tricks of the game.”
“I knew that this time the game would not restrict the quality of the people entering, and it would definitely not let you guys waste time here so easily.”
“It’s terrible. Fortunately, I hesitated just now, otherwise I would have to soak in the water for a year now.”
Seeing that there were people who were worse off than themselves, the survivors floating on the sea suddenly felt very proud.
Especially when they looked at those pale-faced surrenderers, they felt as if their whole bodies were unblocked.
It’s really like that saying, as long as others are worse off than you, you’ll feel good.
However, the tragic fate of the surrendered people, although interrupting some people’s thoughts, also caused more people to panic.
As expected, if one joins a gambling fight with the intention of just getting by, it is absolutely impossible for him to receive any preferential treatment in the game.
If they don’t want to float on the sea for the next year, they have to at least find a piece of land.
By then, even if I can’t hold on any longer and give up investing, I can still ensure that I can spend the year a little more comfortably.
In addition to the different environments, the routes taken by ordinary survivors are also completely different from Su Mo’s.
In the endless ocean, a man in black floated on a lifebuoy, breathing heavily and checking the panel to distract himself.
Around him, there were many survivors wearing clothes of other colors, but these people performed much better than the man in black.
After all, the threat from the sea is not just about poor swimming skills. Many people are afraid of the ocean, but more importantly, they are afraid of the endless vastness.
Here, time has no meaning, and space has no meaning either.
Looking around, you can see dark blue water waves floating up and down everywhere.
When I looked down, the water was pitch black and bottomless. Anyone with a strong imagination would be tortured by it.
“Start with the believer route?”
The man in black said softly, his attention gradually focused on the description of the game panel.
According to the game introduction, there are three different directions for players to choose from.
The first is the believer route.
This is the most basic route, and everyone can choose it before entering, which is equivalent to choosing their own camp.
Once a faction is chosen, it cannot be changed.
When the battle of faith begins in the future, the rewards that can be obtained will be determined by the height that the faction can reach.
The second is the non-believer route.
This is an advanced route. Judging from the literal meaning, it seems to conflict with this battle of faith.
But in fact, it is not the case that non-believers have no faith, but they firmly believe in themselves.
The game states that if you choose this route and successfully destroy three beliefs, you will have a chance to unlock a hidden route.
The road of the gods.
That is, become a god yourself, form your own camp, and participate in the final battle of faith.
But just looking at the literal description is so perverted, you can imagine how difficult it is to actually implement.
It is difficult for ordinary survivors to destroy the three beliefs, form a belief that can make it to the end, or even find a camp that can enter the final round.
The third one is the popular route for ordinary believers.
Once you become a believer, you will not be fixed on choosing a certain camp and will become a free man to a certain extent.
In this process, players will not be restricted by their beliefs, but they will also not be able to enjoy the final victory rewards.
This is a soy sauce route prepared by the game for individual players, to send some people who just want to get by away from the fighting circle.
“There are three routes, and it seems that only the first one can be chosen.”
The man in black was speechless.
Both believers without faith and ordinary believers are extreme and are not suitable for players who want to participate in the final battle. Moreover, for believers without faith, this is simply an impossible task.
Especially for players who have tasted the rewards of the first Ten Thousand Paths Battle, it is equivalent to having only one way left to go.
“Well, I can only hope that my luck will be as good this time as last time!”
After quickly selecting a route, the man in black raised his head and it turned out to be Guan Mao, whom Su Mo met last time.
As one of the individuals who benefited the most from the Wanjing Battle, the Chihuo Territory has expanded its territory from hundreds of thousands of people to more than two million people with the help of the supplies brought out by Guan Mao and Zhang Jun.
And this time, their purpose is very simple.
Find Su Mo as soon as possible and see if it’s possible to do it the same as last time, with Su Mo eating meat and them drinking soup.
“Maomao, have you chosen your route?” Zhang Jun looked around and swam back using his hands and feet.
It’s strange.
Apart from the scorching sun that makes people dizzy, there are no living creatures underwater in this ocean.
This makes the idea of a group of people wanting to fill their stomachs in the sea become a pipe dream.
“We’ve chosen the believer route. Let’s see if we can find Su Shen and share the same faith with him.”
“Hey, Su Shen should choose the non-believers route, right?”
Zhang Jun’s voice was somewhat hesitant.
When it comes to the struggle of faith, the “Su Chui” in the wasteland are quite powerful and can always scold their detractors in the world channel.
If this belief can be established in the gambling space, it should be able to attract many people to join voluntarily.
“I can’t say for sure, but I’ll listen to whatever Su Shen does!”
“That’s right. It’s useless for us to think about these things. Let’s go in and take a look at the situation first.”
“Nuclear winter is not easy!”
After thinking for a while with his head tilted, Guan Mao simply closed his eyes and rested.
There are still more than ten hours before the gambling fight starts. If he were given the chance to choose again, he would never be so impulsive as to come in and suffer early.
But then I thought, I will have to stay here for the next year.
Although they will not die, it will definitely be an inhuman torture, enough to make those who come in and intend to surrender suffer.
More than ten hours of preparation time passed in a flash.
During this period, Su Mo also discovered players passing by around the sea area where he was.
However, this divine island seemed to isolate the players from their perception. No matter how loudly he yelled, the people in the sea turned a deaf ear and followed the ocean current away from the island.
As Su Mo himself had not started the game yet, there was an invisible barrier around the island, which prevented him from leaving the island and exploring the ocean.
“It’s troublesome, but compared to these people, I still want to be more comfortable.”
There was only one square meter of space, so Su Mo could only sit cross-legged on the ground, or he had to lift his legs and place them on the invisible barrier before he could lie down.
Su Mo felt a little numb when he thought that the participating players would not only have to survive in the context of a nuclear winter, but also have to continue suffering in this space after falling asleep.
The scorching heat of the Earth’s fiery desert is at best the weakest of the worst here.
Although there is a shortage of water and food, at least it is cooler at night so we can rest and avoid exhaustion.
If we can’t find a foothold here as soon as possible, the vicious cycle will only continue to worsen.
It may take less than a week for half of the two million people who entered to be eliminated.
[Record]: There are three minutes left before the gambling game begins. Players, please be ready!
The game prompt sound finally sounded.
Su Mo slowly stood up, stretched his muscles, and took a deep breath to adjust his state.
A night of nap did not affect his mental state much.
In addition, before coming in, I had used the special abilities gained from improving my physical fitness to eat enough food for a week, so I didn’t feel hungry now.
The only difficult thing was thirst. There was drinking water in the soul carrier plate, but Su Mo didn’t want to take it out so ostentatiously during the preparation stage and attract Wei’s attention.
Therefore, at the moment we can only hope to enter the gambling space and find stable water resources as soon as possible.
[Record]: The gambling fight has started. Does the player ‘Suma’ choose to enter?
[Record]: When you are in a non-dangerous resting state, you can choose to return to the faith space to recuperate at any time. Once there is an attack threat from the outside, you will be automatically teleported back to the gambling space.
[Record]: You can bring items from the gambling space into the faith space, but you need to pay special faith points.
“yes!”
Seeing that he could bring items from the gambling space in, Su Mo nodded slightly and confirmed to enter.
Swish!
A streak of light flashed by, and his figure instantly disappeared on the narrow Divine Island.
Whoosh!
The north wind howled, bringing with it gusts of biting cold wind, with tiny ice particles rustling in the wind.
The sky was grey and the clouds were low, as if they were within reach, yet so far away.
The sun seemed to be blocked by this thick layer of clouds, and could only emit a faint light, barely illuminating the earth.
Looking down from a high vantage point, the five plates of the New World remain unchanged in volume and their outlines have not changed.
The only thing that changes is the color.
The northern plate is the lightest in color, showing a faint black and yellow color, and it also emits light in many places.
The central plate is the darkest in color, pure black, emitting countless black veins around it like an infected body.
The west and south are next, both are slightly darker gray-black than the north.
Only the eastern part occupied by foreign races looks the healthiest, with a light yellow color.
Rays of light representing the players flashed by and fell straight to different areas.
Among them, the northern plate is the majority, and most people come to this new continent that no one discusses in the main world.
Only a small number of people dispersed to the east and south.
As for the central part.
Perhaps because it became the main battlefield, it had long been contaminated by nuclear radiation and turned into a restricted area.
The game does not randomly throw any players here.
Except for players who can choose their own position!
Boom.
A purple light that was obviously brighter than the others appeared in the sky and fell directly onto the central plate.
The light fell to the ground and gathered into a human shape.
It was Su Mo!
“It’s been a long time since I felt so weak!”
The polluted air entered his nose, Su Mo raised his hand and laughed silently.
After experiencing the super star humans, the gap between returning to the weak level of Earth humans should not be too big.
But it was this real feeling of weakness that made him realize that everything before his eyes was a simulation.
Is this the new world twelve years later?
Standing in the western suburbs of Qinggang City, Su Mo looked around.
The thick black ice layer covered the vast land like a huge slab of stone, with cracks crisscrossing the ice surface.
On this ice field, there is almost no sign of life, only the occasional falling snowflakes, quietly accumulating and thickening the layer of death.
There was dead silence all around, with only the sound of the wind and the occasional sound of ice cracking breaking the depressing atmosphere.
Those buildings that once towered into the sky are now only left with broken skeletons, exposed steel bars, and concrete fragments scattered on the ground, like giant tombstones forgotten by time.
The streets were covered with thick snow and icicles, and occasionally vehicles could be seen frozen in the snow with their doors half open, as if telling of the haste and fear of escaping.
“Very good, as expected, the developments and changes outside have not been brought into the gambling space at all!”
Su Mo was not angry but happy. The reason why he landed in the central part was not because he wanted to suffer.
As the saying goes, live towards death.
Since we have to have a place for the final battle with the aliens, why not choose a familiar place?
