The world’s first online VR survival game has finally been released. In order to promote the game, the company is holding the first “Infinite Survival Competition”.
As a passionate surv...
On the 9th day, the system announced, "The wind speed has reached the highest level ever, and players are advised to avoid going out."
"Because the power lines have been damaged, the entire island will be cut off from today."
"In some areas, water pipes are poorly maintained and the number of bacterial colonies in tap water is seriously exceeded. From now on, tap water cannot be drunk. (If you force yourself to drink it, you will easily be infected with negative conditions)"
Su Han muttered to himself, "If I remember correctly, the water and electricity were cut off on the 12th day in the novice dungeon? It seems that the difficulty of the dungeon has increased significantly."
However, all this has nothing to do with her.
Su Han stayed in the room calmly, looking out the window from time to time. There were fewer and fewer people on the road, and it looked quite desolate at first glance.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Learning from the last experience, Su Han first took out a dagger from his personal storage and held it behind his back before opening the door.
Standing outside the door was Zhong Rui.
Su Han breathed a sigh of relief, his expression softened, but the dagger was still hidden behind him, "What's the matter?"
"Discuss the distribution of the spoils with you." Zhong Rui replied calmly.
The four robbers were armed. After the fight, all four weapons fell to the ground.
Su Han was actually quite envious of the Tang Dao. The Tang Dao was suitable for attacking, and the dagger was suitable for self-defense. The combination of the long and the short increased the combat effectiveness. However, thanks to Zhong Rui's help, the robbers were defeated smoothly. Otherwise, it was hard to say what the result would be. Although she didn't say anything, in fact, she was very grateful in her heart.
"I only need the dagger, you can do with the rest as you please." Su Han said calmly.
Zhong Rui was a little surprised. "You only picked one out of the four items: the brick, the dagger, the Tang sword, and the kitchen knife?"
"Yes." Su Han nodded gently and said, "If there is nothing else, goodbye."
With a "click", the door was closed.
"An upright, moderately kind, and principled player?" After coming to his senses, Zhong Rui chuckled and murmured, "As a companion, he is reassuring and will not be a drag. That's great."
**
At 9 a.m. the next day, the system's mechanical voice announced, "On the 10th day, the tornado has left, but there are still small tornadoes wreaking havoc on the island."
"Because the wind is too strong, weak people may be blown away or injured. (People with a fullness level of more than 60 will be immune)"
"The tornado has caused tremendous damage and the island's environment has been severely affected. Please try to complete the cleanup."
"Note: By 9:00 a.m. on the 11th day, if the cleanup progress is less than 35%, a mid-level debuff will be triggered; if the cleanup progress is 35%-70%, a low-level debuff will be triggered; if the cleanup progress is above 70%, no debuff will be triggered."
"We're in trouble." Su Han analyzed quickly.
"There are already two debuffs - if the cleanliness is lower than 60, you may get rhinitis, and if the fullness is lower than 60, you may be blown away. Not many players are willing to go out and participate in the cleanup."
"What's worse is that it's already the 10th day... If players just want to mess around, they can just leave the dungeon on the 11th day."
After thinking it over, Su Han decided to lower his expectations. "Do your best and leave the rest to fate. Just don't trigger the intermediate debuff." Intermediate debuff or something like that sounds very ominous.
After breakfast, she found some clean cloth strips and bandaged her hands layer by layer - she had read information about tornadoes before and it was said that cleaning up afterwards would not only easily cause injuries, but also cause inflammation of the wounds, so Su Han had to take precautions in advance.
Walking out of the inn, a scene of devastation came into view. The cars on the street were overturned with four wheels facing upwards, and several cars were inexplicably missing; several large trees fell down, blocking the middle of the road, causing traffic inconvenience; the flowers and plants in the flower beds looked like they had been destroyed and were in a mess; the trash cans were blown over, and all kinds of household garbage were scattered all over the ground.
Su Han thought that if no one took care of this and it eventually caused the plague debuff, she would not find it strange at all.
At this time, a man came over and introduced himself, saying, "Hello, I am the head of the Volunteer Association. The Volunteer Association plans to clean up the entire island and provide lunch once a day. Would you like to join?"
Su Han reacted quickly. To be honest, she had always thought that the cleanup would have to be done by a small number of people who had no worries about food and clothing. But if a volunteer association came forward and was willing to provide lunch, there would undoubtedly be many more NPCs willing to join.
"I'm willing to join." Su Han answered without hesitation.
"Okay, please join the five-person team and clean up the garbage on the street." The person in charge began to arrange the work.
Su Han nodded in agreement. But after joining the so-called five-member team, she found out that her teammates were Zhong Rui, Cai Sheng, and two strangers.
Among them, the unknown woman took the lead in introducing herself, "My name is Fan Wanyu, I'm 27 years old, and I'm a school teacher."
The strange young boy said, "My last name is Fang, just call me Xiao Fang. I'm a college student, I came out to travel on a budget, and I didn't expect to be trapped on the island."
Su Han was silent for a moment. Traveling on a budget? This reason sounds familiar. A gamer, right?
Zhong Rui simply said, "Zhong Rui." and nothing else. It seemed a little difficult to communicate.
Cai Sheng said seriously, "I think the mess everywhere affects the city's appearance. We must restore it to a clean state."
Su Han couldn't help but look sideways, thinking that this guy must have run out to help in order not to affect his inn business.
When it was Su Han's turn, she said, "Su Han, had a quarrel with his family and is currently running away from home."
Zhong Rui glanced at her inconspicuously, and his meaning was very clear - as a player, it was really hard for her to make up a reliable origin.
Su Han remained calm and pretended not to know.
After getting to know each other, the five people split up and took action, some sweeping the floor, some taking out the garbage, and some pulling weeds.
Cai Sheng complained, "If you don't need to cooperate, why did you introduce yourself just now?"
Su Han had no time to talk and worked briskly. If you pay by the day, there might be a situation where the employee quietly slacks off. Anyway, it doesn't matter how much you work, you can only get one meal, so why waste your energy and work hard?
Unable to control others, Su Han decided to do more himself and try to speed up the cleaning progress.
Similarly, Zhong Rui had similar thoughts and acted very quickly.
After the five people cleaned up the garbage in one area, the system prompted, "Cleaning progress +1%, the current total progress is 7.6%."
The work had just been completed and they had not had time to catch their breath when the person in charge appeared in front of the five people and continued to issue instructions, "There is a tree fallen on the road in xx Street. Please go and clean it up."
After reaching their destination, the five people stared at the tree blocking the road, and then looked at each other.
Fan Wanyu frowned, "The tree is too big, how can we clean it up?"
Su Han had a blank expression on his face, "So didn't the person in charge give the axe?"
Xiao Fang's face turned green, "You mean, chopping down trees, logging?" If the trees were chopped into firewood, they would no longer block the road.
"If you understand, then start cutting down trees right away." After saying that, Zhong Rui took the lead in cutting down trees.
Su Han sighed and raised his axe.
Cai Sheng gritted his teeth and took action third.
Fan Wanyu hesitated for a moment, and finally followed reluctantly. However, she was very scheming and deliberately slowed down her movements.
Xiao Fang's eyes lit up, and he followed suit and began to chop the tree in slow motion.
After an unknown amount of time, the tree was finally chopped into several pieces. The system prompted, "Cleaning progress +2%, current total progress 21.6%."
"How do we deal with the wood?" Xiao Fang asked.
"The person in charge didn't say anything, so I guess they can just do whatever they want." Fan Wanyu answered while breathing heavily. At this moment, she had begun to doubt whether it was right or wrong for her to come here to do hard labor just to get a meal.
Zhong Rui suddenly asked, "Is there a warehouse in the B&B?"
Cai Sheng was slightly startled, and blinked several times before he reacted. He nodded quickly, "Yes, there is a large warehouse."
"Borrow it first."
"No problem." Cai Sheng agreed readily.
Zhong Rui looked around and asked, "If anyone needs wood blocks, we can share them equally. If not, I will take them all."
Su Han did not hesitate, "I want it."
But the next second, she changed the subject and said, "I also live in a B&B inn, so I'll put it in the warehouse first."
Zhong Rui turned around and looked at the other three people.
Cai Sheng hesitated for a moment, thinking that it would be a shame not to take advantage of the opportunity, so he replied in a resounding voice, "Count me in."
Fan Wanyu waved her hands repeatedly, "Forget about my share, you can take all." At this moment, she just wanted to sit down and have a good rest.
Xiao Fang frowned, wondering what these people wanted the wood for. Based on the principle of not missing out on a bargain, he said, "Then let's split it among the four of us."
"Come and help with the carrying." Zhong Rui called out.
Fan Wanyu did not move. She gave up her share, so there was no need to do anything.
Xiao Fang just stretched out his hand, but suddenly his mouth twitched and he couldn't help but gasp. Everyone looked back and found that his finger was pierced by a wooden splinter, and blood was flowing out. It was unknown whether it was infected or inflamed.
Xiao Fang was very upset. What if the wound got inflamed? There was no medicine to treat it now! Why should he risk his life for a few pieces of wood? Thinking of this, he changed his words decisively, "I don't want the wood anymore, you can do whatever you want with it."
"Where is Cai Sheng?" Su Han turned around and asked.
Cai Sheng took a step back and said firmly, "After thinking it over carefully, I decided to give up." After all, life is more precious.
Su Han looked at Zhong Rui, but found that he was also waiting for her to express her opinion. She smiled helplessly, "It seems that you are not going to give up?"
"Let's split it equally." Zhong Rui said bluntly.
"Yes." Su Han agreed.
"Wait a moment." Zhong Rui first went back to the inn alone, and when he rushed over, he rode a tricycle, and no one knew where he got it from.
Su Han immediately started carrying the wood onto the car.
Xiao Fang was a little suspicious, "Why aren't these two guys afraid of getting hurt?"
Fan Wanyu interrupted, "Look carefully at their hands."
Xiao Fang was stunned, "That is..."
"They used cloth strips to bandage their fingers. This is a professional bandage method, leaving only the fingertips exposed. This way, it is not easy to hurt the hands, and it does not hinder movement."
Xiao Fang suddenly realized, "No wonder." But after thinking about it, he felt something was wrong, so he turned around and asked, "Then why didn't you bandage it?"
Fan Wanyu was speechless for a while, and said seriously, "Being able to recognize it and being able to bandage it yourself are two different things."
"Besides," her tone became a little subtle, "Now that we are short of food and water, what do I need some wood for?"
Xiao Fang nodded in agreement, "So it's better to give up and take the time to rest."
