Chapter 1477 A desperate start, an impossible mission!
It is different from Somo who is in the vast sea and has his own place to stand.
Other contestants who entered this sea area were not so lucky.
Everyone was roughly thrown into the sea and could only passively float up and down with the waves.
Some unlucky ones who were not good at water almost chose to surrender because of this. Fortunately, the game did not fail and gave these people a life preserver.
Otherwise, before the game even starts, thousands of people will be eliminated in the preparation stage alone.
"What are you doing? Why is this preparation space on the sea? Isn't this just kidding us?"
"Damn it, look at the game board. It says that we have to establish faith or find faith in the gambling space, so that we can know the location of the island where the faith belongs in this space, otherwise we can only float!"
"Then it's okay if we don't come to this space. Wouldn't it be better to just stay in the gambling space?"
"No, it said above that as long as we fall asleep, we will automatically come here."
"Fuck, 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 this. Who the hell can withstand this? I've only been soaking for ten minutes and I feel like I'm going to die!"
"I'm so hot and thirsty. Can someone give me a drink of water?"
"I quit, I want to surrender! I won't play anymore!"
"."
Although the game issued lifebuoys to help some unlucky people who were not good at water, some people started to choose to quit one after another, not wanting to suffer this inhuman torture.
They came here to hang out for a long time, and they planned to stay safe and stable in the gambling space for a year.
In a year's time, 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, as he said, the person who surrendered happily confirmed the game's second prompt.
A new prompt floated out from the game panel, making these people dumbfounded!
[Record]: You have chosen to surrender, so you will not be able to leave this space until the gambling battle ends!
"Hey, even if you surrender, you can't leave here? Do you have to float on the sea for a year?"
"Oh my god, I've only been soaking for half an hour and I feel like I'm going to die. If you let me soak for a year, wouldn't it kill me?"
"What's going on? The gambling fight hasn't started yet. Can't you send us out? I don't want to stay here anymore!"
"Hahaha, you idiots who want to kill time have finally mastered the game."
"I knew that if the game didn't limit the quality of the people who came in this time, it would definitely not let you hang out here so easily."
"It's scary. Fortunately, I hesitated just now, otherwise I would have to soak in the water for a year now."
Seeing someone worse off than themselves, the survivors floating on the sea suddenly felt very proud.
Especially when they looked at the pale-faced surrenderers, they felt that their whole bodies seemed to be a little smoother.
It’s true as the saying goes, as long as others are worse off than you are, you’ll feel better.
However, the tragic experience of the surrenderers, although it interrupted some people's thoughts, also made more people panic.
Sure enough, if you participate in a gambling battle with the idea of just messing around, you will never receive any preferential treatment in the game.
If they don't want to float on the sea for the next year, they must at least find a piece of land.
By then, even if you can't bear to vote anymore, you can still ensure that this year will be a little more comfortable.
In addition to the different environments, the routes taken by ordinary survivors are completely different from those of Somo.
In the endless ocean, a man dressed in black floated on a lifebuoy, panting and looking at the panel to distract himself.
Around him, there were many survivors wearing clothes of other colors gathered, but the performance of these people was much better than that of the man in black.
After all, the threat from the sea is not just about poor water quality. Many people are afraid of the ocean, but more importantly, they are afraid of the boundless emptiness.
Here, time has no meaning and space has no meaning.
Looking up, there are black and blue water waves floating up and down everywhere.
When you look down, you will see that the water is pitch black and bottomless. If you have a stronger imagination, you will be tortured.
"Start the Believer route?"
The man in black said softly, his attention gradually focusing on the description of the game panel.
According to the game introduction, there are three different directions in the routes and camps that players can choose this time.
The first is the believer's route.
This is the most basic route. Everyone can choose before entering, which is equivalent to choosing their own camp.
Once a camp is selected, it cannot be changed.
When the battle of faith begins in the future, the rewards that can be obtained will also be determined by the height that the camp can reach.
The second is the route of the unbelievers.
This is an advanced route. Just looking at the literal meaning seems to conflict with this battle of faith.
But this is not the case. Unbelievers do not have no faith, but they firmly believe in themselves.
The game indicates that if you choose this route and successfully destroy the three beliefs, you will have the opportunity to open a hidden route.
The path of the gods.
That is, you become a god, form your own camp, and participate in the final battle of faith.
It's just that the literal description is so perverse, you can imagine how difficult it is to actually implement it.
It is difficult for ordinary survivors to find a camp that can enter the finals, let alone destroying three faiths and forming a faith that can reach the end.
The third type is the route that common believers like to hear and see.
Once you become a common believer, you will not choose a certain camp and will become a free person to a certain extent.
In this process, players will not be restricted by belief, but they will not enjoy the final victory reward.
This is a soy sauce route prepared by the game for casual players, to send some people who are dawdling away from the battle circle.
"There are three routes, but it seems that only the first one can be chosen."
The man in black was speechless.
The unbelievers and the ordinary believers are extremes and are not suitable for players who want to participate in the final battle. Moreover, for the unbelievers, this is simply an impossible task.
Especially for players who have tasted the rewards of the first Ten Thousand Paths Battle, it is completely equivalent to having only one way left to go.
"Well, I can only hope that this time my luck will be as good as last time!"
After quickly choosing a route, the man in black raised his head and saw that it was Guan Mao whom Somo met at the beginning last time.
As one of the individual people who gained the most from the Ten Thousand Paths War, Blazing Fire Territory has expanded its territory from hundreds of thousands to more than two million people with the help of Guan Mao and Zhang Jun's supplies.
And this time, their purpose is also very simple.
Find Somo as soon as possible and see if it can be the same as last time. Somo eats meat and they drink some soup and water.
"Maomao, have you chosen your route?" Zhang Jun explored the surrounding area and swam back using both hands and feet.
Strange to say.
Apart from the harsh 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 feed themselves in the sea empty talk.
Fortunately, most of the survivors had eaten before coming in, so they didn't have to worry about meals for more than ten hours.
"Having chosen the Believer route, let's see if we can find Su Shen and have the same faith as him."
"Hey, Su Shen should choose the unbeliever route, right?"
Zhang Jun's words were hesitant.
When it comes to the battle of faith, the fighting power of the "Su Chui" in the wasteland is not low, and they can always scold their detractors on the world channel.
If this can build belief in the gambling space, it should be able to attract many people to actively join.
"I can't say, but whatever Su Shen does, I will listen to him!"
"That's right. It's useless for us to think about these things. We'd better go in and see the situation first."
"A nuclear winter is not going to be easy!"
After thinking about it for a while, Guan Mao simply closed his eyes and rested his mind.
There are still more than ten hours before the gambling battle starts. If he were asked to choose again, he would never be so impulsive to come in early and suffer.
But then I thought about it, I will stay here for the next year.
Although death will not happen, it will definitely be an inhuman torture, enough to make those who come in ready to surrender suffer.
The more than ten hours of preparation time passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, Sumo also noticed players passing by around the sea area where he was.
However, this island of gods seems to have cut off the players' perception. No matter how loud he yells, the people in the sea turn a deaf ear and follow the ocean current in a direction away from the island.
As for Somo himself, because the game had not started, there was an invisible barrier surrounding the island, preventing him from leaving the island to explore the ocean.
"It's so troublesome, but compared with these people, I'm still more comfortable."
There was only one square meter of space, so Somo could only sit cross-legged on the ground, otherwise he would have to lift his legs up and put them on the invisible barrier before he could lie down.
Somo felt a little numb when he thought that the next participating players would not only have to survive in the context of nuclear winter, but also have to come to this space to continue suffering after falling asleep.
The scorching heat of the Earth Fire Desert can only be said to be the younger brother within the heat here.
Although we were short of water and food, we could at least take advantage of the night to cool down and rest, so as not to lose our physical strength.
And if we can't find a foothold here as soon as possible, it will only continue to aggravate the vicious cycle.
It may take less than a week for half of the two million people who entered to be eliminated.
[Record]: There are still three minutes left before the gambling battle begins. Players, please be prepared!
The game prompt finally sounded.
Somo stood up slowly, moved his muscles up and down, and took a deep breath to adjust his condition.
A night's sleep had little effect on his mental state.
In addition, before I came in, I had already used the special ability gained from improving my physique to eat enough food for a week, so I don't feel hungry now.
The only thing that was a bit difficult to deal with was thirst. There was drinking water in the soul tray, but Somo didn't want to take it out in such a high-profile stage during the preparation stage and attract the attention of 'Wei'.
Therefore, at the moment, we can only hope that by entering the gambling space, we can find stable water resources as soon as possible.
[Record]: The gambling battle 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 for repairs at any time. Once there is a threat of attack from the outside world, you will automatically be transferred back to the gambling space.
[Record]: Betting space items can be brought into the faith space, but special faith points need to be paid.
"yes!"
Seeing that he could bring items from the gambling space, Somo nodded slightly and confirmed his entry.
Whoosh!
A stream of light flashed past, and his figure suddenly disappeared on the narrow Spirit Island.
call!
The north wind howled, blowing up biting cold winds, and the wind was mixed with tiny ice particles, making a rustling sound.
The sky was gray and the clouds were hanging low, as if it was within reach but yet out of reach.
The sun seemed to be blocked by this thick layer of clouds, and could only shine faintly, barely illuminating the earth.
Looking down from a high place, the volumes of the five New World plates remain unchanged 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 is even shiny in many places.
The middle plate is the darkest, pure black, with countless black veins spreading out around it like an infected body.
The west and south are second, both are slightly darker gray-black than the north.
Only the eastern part occupied by aliens looks the healthiest, showing a light yellow color.
Streams of light representing players flashed past and fell straight to different areas.
Among them, most of them are in the northern plate, and most people come to this new continent that is not discussed in the main world.
Only a small number of people dispersed to the east and south.
As for the middle part.
Perhaps because it has become the main battlefield, it has long been contaminated by nuclear radiation and has become a restricted area.
The game does not randomly drop any players here.
In addition to players who can choose their own positions!
Boom.
A purple light that was obviously more dazzling than the others appeared in the sky and fell straight into the middle plate.
The light falls to the ground and gathers into human form.
Surprisingly, it is Sumo!
"It's been a long time, it's been a long time since I've felt so weak!"
As the dirty air entered his nose, Somo raised his hand and laughed silently.
After experiencing super-star humans, the gap should not be too big when returning to the level of such a weak human being on earth.
But it was this real feeling of weakness that made him understand that everything in front of him was a simulation.
Is this the New World twelve years later?
Standing in the western suburbs of Qinggang City, Somo looked around.
The thick black ice is like a huge stone slab, covering the vast land, with cracks crisscrossing the ice.
There are almost no signs of life on this ice sheet, with only the occasional falling snowflakes quietly accumulating, thickening this layer of death.
There was deathly silence all around, with only the sound of wind and the occasional sound of cracking ice breaking the dull atmosphere.
Those once towering buildings now only have broken skeletons, with exposed steel bars and broken concrete scattered everywhere, like tombstones of giants forgotten by time.
The streets were covered with thick snow and ice, and occasionally frozen vehicles could be seen with their doors half-open, as if to tell the story of the rush and fear of escaping.
"Very good. As expected, the developments and changes outside have not been brought to the gambling space at all!"
Soma was not angry but happy. The reason why he landed in the middle was not because he actively wanted to find fault.
As the saying goes, live to die.
Since there is always a place to have a decisive battle with aliens, why not choose a familiar place?
