Plankaner Town, "Golden Beach".
10 players stayed on the rough beach of the ruined town, looking at the moving islands from far to near.
And the 13 players looking back from the shore.
They were forced to leave Thanksgiving Island due to the main mission, come to join their companions, and then continue on until their death.
When the two islands were close enough, they took a raft to land on the mobile island and staggered away from the third island behind them.
The tournament players sympathized with each other for their encounters, and the Thanksgiving Island players were more sympathized with, because Qianye and the others originally wanted to go north to explore.
Players cannot escape the fate of being manipulated by the main line, but two people present are not.
Mu Su and Naughty Meng Shao.
Qianye already knew about the former, but out of politeness he still asked: "Are you going north with us or returning to Thanksgiving Island?"
As expected, Mu Su chose to go north, while Naughty Meng Shao was still hesitant.
"Your health and sanity need time to recover, and it's best for someone to watch over on Thanksgiving Island."
Qianye's suggestion made Naughty Meng Shao decide to stay, and compared to more than 20 people competing for viewers, staying alone on Thanksgiving Island would allow him to gain a stable number of viewers and gifts.
"Then I'll leave Gratitude Island to you, along with these props."
Two bluestone slabs with burn marks and roasting aroma; notes recording nursery rhymes; the only items they found were given to Naughty Meng Shao by Qianye.
But it wasn't time to say goodbye yet. There was still one day before the mobile island reached the end, and they still had to stay on the island for one night.
"Enjoy your last night!"
Mu Su stood in front of the bonfire and laughed ferociously, with the reflection of the firelight behind him ferocious.
The last night in the waters of Thanksgiving Island passed faster than imagined. In the morning, the players woke up from the sand pit.
"You monster! Ugly monster! Dirty nose monster! Get out of my sand lair!"
Suddenly they heard shouts and curses, and Mu Su climbed out of the sand pit and walked away angrily.
Behind him, Wangwen Wenche sat up from the sandpit in confusion, touching his nose: "I didn't know you hated me so much..."
"Maybe it's low sanity syndrome." Qianye comforted him as he passed by.
"He laughed at my big nose."
"Illusions exaggerate everything they see."
He hoped that Qianye would tell the truth if he kept asking more questions, but fortunately he didn't.
The mobile island is coming to an end. Players set up a fire on the beach on the northern coast of the island, smoked and grilled fish, made distilled water and the active atmosphere restored their sanity.
As morning approached, they had already seen the vast archipelago stretching to the north. Leaving the bonfire and the things they didn’t need to take with them to Naughty Meng Shao, they brought food and water, boarded a raft and floated in the shoals, and then paddled the wood as the islands began to return.
, break away from the churning undercurrent of the island.
The moving island and the naughty Meng Shao beside the campfire gradually disappeared. To this day, players still don’t know why the island moved.
The thirteen rafts kept their distance but were relatively close to each other, at a distance where the other side's shouts could be heard clearly.
"Can we arrive before dark?" Wang Wen asked Qianye on the raft next to him.
"Unless the main plot plans to kill us on the sea and have a bad ending, we will definitely land on the island smoothly." Qianye said, and then added after thinking of something: "Just be cautious, I guess the main plot of Thanksgiving Island is equivalent to a beginner's tutorial
, and then comes the real difficulty.”
"Then half of the people died in the novice tutorial." Valkini complained.
Although spreading out the deaths over a week doesn't seem so hard to accept.
The audience who came because of the update of the main mission gradually left due to the long wandering. The south wind blew the sails and allowed the raft to smoothly approach the Yanmian Islands - the more this happened, the more uneasy Qianye became.
You need to know that this is a game, and any game must have something to watch... If the previous "newbie tutorial" was to advance the main line, then when Thanksgiving Island has been occupied and the route has been determined, their practical value will become entertainment value.
A true fourth round tournament.
Qianye described it in his mind, hesitating whether he should tell his companions about his guess.
White lies and false truths weigh equally on the scale.
Looking around at the companions on the raft, even Tianmo and Mu Su remained silent.
Come to think of it, Tianmo is also one of the last forty-four people. It is impossible not to realize it——
Tianmo suddenly lowered his head quickly when he saw it, tore off a piece of fish meat from the dried fish in his arms and stuffed it into his mouth. He regained his calm expression, with only the muscles in his gills twitching slightly.
Silent Qianye looked at Mu Su again, and then didn't bother to guess.
Bang bang——
"Everyone, I have a new point of view."
Qianye clapped his hands to call his companions' attention and told his guess.
"You mean we'll die if we get ashore?"
"No, but you will encounter danger, just like the last round."
Wangwen asked: "Do you have any ideas?"
"One thing. The definition of advancement is subjective. For example, if we are too late to reach the islands in the evening and return-"
Qianye remembered that Mobile Island was already on its way back and that they could not catch up, so he changed his mind and said, "We will arrive at the archipelago and stay on the first island without moving forward."
"The game won't make it more difficult for us?"
"This is the main world, and the game usually doesn't change anything for us...but it also means that the front is extremely dangerous...more dangerous than the last round of Cape View."
To a certain extent, this can be regarded as players fighting against the game.
Everyone agreed to Qianye's plan. They rested and prepared to enter the unknown territory that would never be a gentle night after landing.
…
Wow——
Gloomy black clouds covered the sky, dark waves rolled, and the dull air surged with the pressure of an approaching storm.
Everything seems to be no longer calm as it approaches the islands.
"Turn the sails closer! Valkyrie, lower your sails, you are too far away!"
The chaotic waves separated the players from each other, and Qianye shouted for control to reunite them to avoid being swept far away by the waves. Despite this, the thirteen wooden boats still struggled to reunite and were scattered in a hundred meters of sea.
As we approach the islands, the environment becomes increasingly harsh.
The strong wind whipped up waves and slapped their bodies, and then the showers from the clouds made it difficult for them to breathe.
It was as if they were approaching a hurricane.
"My ship!"
The exclamations stopped abruptly, and everyone looked around hurriedly, only to see behind them Shi Miao and Trustil disappearing into the rolling waves as the raft capsized.
"It's a mad dog wave! Hold on to the raft!"
Tianmo's roar briefly overwhelmed the sound of the waves. They didn't have time to think about what the crazy dog ​​wave was. As soon as they grabbed hold of the rafts, the raging waves from behind capsized all the rafts——
Ten seconds later, the rafts that escaped the undercurrent surfaced one after another, but some of them disappeared.
"We're not far from the shore, hold on!" Qian Ye's shout was lost in the violent wind and rain.
"Forward! Forward!"
In the howling storm, a roar suddenly sounded in their ears.
Mu Su held onto the ship's mast, her black hair sticking to her forehead. The rain curtain passed across her eyelashes and the bridge of her nose, reflecting the gloss of the oil lamp wetly.
"Why does our dio extend forward?"
Mu Su looked firmly at the dark island ahead.
Chapter completed!
