It is not too unexpected that the core of Chapter 119 is the hugely valuable high-end currency here. After all, although Oasis is a virtual game world, its social operation logic is still inseparable from the economy. If this game world does not produce Oasis coins , So it is conceivable that no one is willing to play the game in this world that takes a huge amount of time.
After all, there are only twenty-four hours in a human day. If you put it in other Oasis games, you can go through the plot dozens of times, but here, it is just two days of game time.
The three people in the car ate, drank, and adjusted the temperature control in the car to keep the temperature within a comfortable range and not add additional negative conditions to the three people.
The map on the central control continued to change as the vehicle moved forward, until the triangular symbol representing the vehicle coincided with the previously marked location, and the car gradually stopped while slowly decelerating.
At this time, the sun seemed to have gone down, and the orange-red light hit the land from the west, making the shadow of the car grow longer. But the three of them were not given much time to appreciate the scenery, and the last ray of light gradually dissipated in this world.
Night has fallen.
Jing Shuo noticed a red dot popping up on the video screen that was constantly flapping. He subconsciously clicked on it and found that it was an updated survival guide.
There is not much content in the new update, and it is divided into four major categories.
1. Find shelter. 2. Keep your body warm. 3. Supplement nutrition and water. 4. Safety precautions.
There are three to four small dots in each of the four major categories, but basically there is nothing worthy of special attention.
"We didn't really need the updated content in the past few days. Because we have this." He patted the steering wheel again, making a muffled sound.
"Are we not going to do anything next?" Jing Shuo asked.
"We have to do it. But there's no rush." He replied again: "We met other player teams a few times and learned some experience. It's best not to walk around outside in the first hour before nightfall, because it's the temperature When the changes are the most drastic, although our bodies may not be so delicate in reality, in the game, the more drastic the changes, the more negative states will be attached to our game characters." "..."
Jing Shuo didn't know what to say. It seems that if you look at it this way, this game that claims to be real is not that real.
The two people sitting in the front and passenger seats slightly adjusted their seats backwards, then lay on their backs, looking out from the front of the car and looking at the stars high in the sky.
Jing Yan moved his body in the back seat, but still looked away from the novel.
Jing Shuo slowly closed his eyes, and began to relax his thoughts amidst the faint sounds of air conditioning and breathing.
——
"We have to move, we can't wait here. The temperature has begun to drop. If it continues like this, we may not even be able to survive tonight." In the wilderness shrouded in night, two travelers, one large and one small, were wearing black robes
. . The older one spoke.
"No, I'm lying flat... It's not that I don't want to move, it's mainly because you have seen that there are no mountains, no ruins, and no place to shelter from the wind and build a nest. Instead of moving and continuing to walk, it is better to lie down here and be equal. Let's restart the game..." the younger one said, as if to prove that she was serious, she even sat down, but she felt uncomfortable while sitting, so she just lay back.
"If reality is like this, why are we going out?" She muttered.
"You have to go out and take a look. We are real lives and should not live in a virtual world of data." The tall man raised his hand and pulled down his black robe, revealing his face.
This face doesn't look like a real person, because it's so perfect, there aren't even pores. This is a specially made character.
"Yes, yes, my good brother." The female voice lying on the ground said feebly: "You always said you wanted to go out, and this time you said you had a relationship... But which time did you really succeed?" "This
time It's different, he must be true."
"You say that every time." "
It's true this time, because we have nothing worth being deceived about."
"...Why does it sound like you're quite proud? ?" The girl on the ground opened her mouth and sighed: "So you haven't told me where the news came from?" "
An organization that can't be told."
"I think it's even less credible."
"I think it's very Credible, at least... I think the person in this organization should be trustworthy."
My sister glanced at him: "You trust him so much, don't you know him?"
"Well... you can also say that, but to be precise He said that I know him, but he doesn't know me. I can't tell you more details. I can only say that the other person is a famous star in the oasis." The man sat down slowly: "I checked his history. I didn't find that he had a record of fraud, not even a crime."
"Sounds like a good person." My sister said, "But every time the person who deceives you is a good person before he succeeds. And you, my brother, you never Long memory."
The girl's voice was full of complaints, but the man she called her brother grinned and said, "It's the last time, sister." With
that said, he stood up and stretched out his arms to the girl. palm.
The girl sighed because she couldn't find it, and finally Mo wordlessly stretched out her hand and handed it over, allowing the other party to pull her up from the ground.
The broad black robe and hat slipped down with the movement, revealing the hair below that turned white under the starlight.
It's not that the starlight is white, it's that her hair is white.
This is another porcelain doll.
"...I have a cold BUFF now, is it yours?" the girl said.
"I have it too, but it's not a big problem." The
cold negative state caused by the drop in temperature is indeed not a big problem. To dispel it, you only need a warm campfire, or a safe haven and a thick coat. But the problem now is that they haven't found a shelter, and they don't have thick clothes. As for setting up a bonfire... they have flint, but they don't know where to find something to start the fire.
Looking around in this wilderness, everything is ruined.
"According to the stargazing method... this is north!"
The girl said: "..."
She sighed quietly and said: "The handle of the bucket points to the east, and the world is spring. The handle of the bucket points to the north, and the world is summer. The handle of the bucket points to the north, and the world is summer. If you point to the west, all the world is autumn. If the bucket handle points to the east, all the world is east. So you are not pointing to the north, but to the south. You have reversed the handle and the spoon..." "And the sun has not been setting for long
. , Brother! You don’t know how to watch stars, you should know that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west..." "
Hey, I forgot."
"Just laugh. Sooner or later, someone will sell you." The girl muttered and walked away angrily. .
——
"Twenty degrees below zero."
Then he looked at the external temperature measurement display on the console that was gradually stabilizing. Compared with the data before sunset, this gradually declining temperature line has gradually become flatter.
Jing Shuo, the co-pilot, opened his eyes.
"With this temperature, aren't we really in the north?" Jing Shuo asked.
"Based on the coordinates, it's not true at the moment." He replied again. Then he glanced at the rearview mirror. Jing Yan didn't know when he started to fall asleep. He was breathing steadily and showed no signs of waking up.
"Let's camp here tonight." He lowered his voice again, and then made a few gestures to Jing Shuo.
It means to get off. "You want to set up camp outside?" After getting out of the car, Jing Shuo could feel a cold stimulation acting on his body.
"Fix it, prevent wind, and keep out hail." He pulled out a few more bundles of thick ropes and threw one end to Jing Shuo across the car.
"There is a hook at the bottom of the car. After connecting the rope to the hook, pull it out a certain distance and fix it with ground nails." He explained again.
"Okay."
It's not difficult.
According to what you said, Jing Shuo tightened the rope first, and after letting the part covering the car stretch straight, he looked at the position of the hook at the bottom. After determining the position, he pressed the rope and wrapped it around the hook. Make two turns, then pull the remaining part outward.
The end of the rope itself has ground nails, so Jing Shuo does not need to tie it additionally. After straightening the extended rope and applying force, he presses the ground nails towards the ground.
"Here..." The
person on the other side was very proficient in this work, so the progress was very fast. After finishing her side, she threw the tool in her hand towards Jing Shuo.
Of course, it's not thrown at people.
Because if this is thrown on someone, it will cause at least one negative injury.
The hammer rolled around on the ground several times before being picked up by Jing Shuo. Ding ding ding, he quickly smashed in the extra protruding part of the ground nail.
After smashing it, I tried the rope and it was still strong.
When he was finished on this side, he had already propped up the baffle on the other side, forming a metal barrier covering the car.
Jing Shuo took the hammer in his hand and walked around the car. Suddenly, he noticed that the front left wheel of the car seemed to be smaller.
He pushed on it with his feet, but the force feedback was not real, a bit false.
"This wheel is crooked." Jing Shuo shouted after confirming again.
"Huh?" He leaned over again and followed Jing Shuo's example and made a few strokes, but he didn't feel anything. After pedaling the rear wheel twice for comparison, I realized where the problem was.
"I don't know when it broke. It's okay. When the copy is completed, there will be free repairs outside." But he didn't care.
Jing Shuo nodded, but still knelt down and watched carefully. He even reached behind the tire and touched it.
"Do you have the tools? I feel like it's not a big problem and I should be able to fix it," he said.
"Uh... yes, I'll get it for you."
Soon, she took out tools from the trunk that she didn't know what they were used for and handed them to Jing Shuo.
Some of these tools were familiar to Jingshuo, and some were unfamiliar to him. But figuring things out is what Jing Shuo is good at.
She didn't get in the car again, but when she saw Jing Shuo getting under the car, she ignored the situation on the ground and sat down directly.
"You seem to like maintenance?" she asked.
"To be precise, I don't like maintenance, but I like machinery and technological creations." Jing Shuo replied, his voice humming from underneath the car: "Did I show it clearly?" "It's okay. Maybe I observed more carefully
. Right."
The conversation between the two stopped here.
Until he spoke again:
"If it can't be repaired, forget it. Anyway, the repairs are free after you go out. It's an after-sales service." "
Try it, it's idle." Jing Shuo said, getting out from under the car He drilled it out and rummaged for tools.
"Okay, then I..." I wanted to say something again, but suddenly my perspective seemed to capture a fleeting light.
She turned her head, but everything she could see was shrouded in darkness. Even if the starlight shines on the earth, the range she can see is still limited.
"Just... there seemed to be a flash over there, did you see it?" she asked, but her tone was uncertain.
"Did you see it too?" Because of the angle, Jing Shuo's flash of light was almost in front of him.
"I thought it was an illusion. Is it dangerous?"
After thinking about it again, he got up and got into the car. While fiddling with the center console, he said: "Maybe the road is not dangerous. According to the rules of this game, regardless of Whether it is a beast or a doomsday beast, it will not be refreshed in the first seven days of the game." "
Then there are other players." Jing Shuo stood up, holding the car door with his hand, looking at the movements in the car.
The signal receiving device was brought up again on the display screen of the center console, and the player played a sizzling sound like snowflakes. The channel was slowly adjusted again, but apart from the sizzling sound of snowflakes, there was no other sound of signal reception.
"Is it possible that they don't have communication equipment on them?"
"Probably not, this thing is not very expensive. And it is one of the necessities in this wilderness."
Jing Shuo turned his head and headed towards the previous area. Darkness looked over: "Not necessarily. What if the other party is like me? Look at me, didn't I buy nothing when I came in?" "...It's
not impossible." "
Then the question now is , do we have to contact the other party?" Jing Shuo asked doubtfully.
"It's best to get in touch. The seven-day safety period is not only an adaptation period, but also a team formation period. If we can recruit enough people during these seven days, the follow-up will be much easier. Whether it is building a fleet or resisting the Doomsday Beast ."
"Uh-huh." Jing Shuo was noncommittal.
"By the way, I almost forgot, there's this." Then he suddenly remembered something.
He got out of the car and rummaged through the pile of supplies in the trunk. Soon, he found a cylinder-like object.
"What is this?"
"Flag flare...high-light flare!"
He replied again, then walked a few meters away from the car, adjusted his posture holding the cylinder, and flicked the switch.
Following the hissing sound of something burning rapidly, a brilliant burning light rose up, illuminating the dark night into day.
The dazzling light forced the two of them to squint their eyes.
"This thing is really bright...but no one would use this thing in reality, right?"
