Chapter 164 Desert Survival Day 25 (2) Devil’s Bend…

Yu Miaomiao had been reluctant to go to Devil's Bend because she wanted to spend more time improving her stamina and strength.

Because the Devil's Bend adventure site is a place that tests your physical fitness.

If the four expedition areas were ranked in order of difficulty, Iris would say that Dark Oasis was the easiest, Devil's Bend was the normal difficulty, Labyrinth Forest was the hard mode, and Prank Cave was the hell mode.

She had already cleared the easy adventure, so it was time to move on to the normal difficulty level.

She opened her backpack and used the Devil's Bend Expedition Single Trial Card. There was no notification that anyone was in the expedition area, and then she felt dizzy, and then her feet stepped on a hard rock.

When Yu Miaomiao opened her eyes, she saw a crimson Gobi desert and scattered earth-red steep cliffs.

At this moment, a gust of wind and sand blew over, and her upper body was blown backward by the sudden wind. She waved her hands in the air several times and finally stood steadily.

Iris and Huabie both gave hints, saying that the wind inside was very strong and could blow people away.

Once a person reaches a certain weight, he or she can walk in the wind, or use a fixed rope to fix himself or herself to the rock wall to prevent being blown away by the wind.

The sandstorm will last for a long time, and may not end until the survivor leaves, so staying completely fixed on the rock wall and waiting for the sandstorm to pass may be a waste of time.

If she wanted to add weight to her body, she found someone to make a weight bag that could be tied to her feet. It was difficult to walk and her physical strength was consumed quickly, but for Yu Miaomiao, whose physical strength was already 134, she was still able to move forward with the weight.

Before setting off, she tried wearing the weight bag for a while and now she is quite used to walking with it.

The wind and sand in Devil's Bend were different from those outside. The gravel that was blown up was not fine sand, but small pebbles. Human eyes could not open it at all, but she had goggles.

I put on long clothes and long sleeves in advance, so it wouldn't hurt if the stones, which weren't flying at high speed, hit me.

But the difficulty here is not limited to this. The strong wind and sand make it impossible to shoot arrows. Even if you use guns, you will not be able to shoot accurately. Only melee attacks are the most useful.

So in addition to the broadsword in her hand, her backpack also contained two weapons that Ziren had made for her before, and a wolf-tooth hammer.

The meteor hammer had a chain, and she wasn't sure if it would hit her if she swung it in the wind and sand, so she decided to leave it to Api for self-defense.

The road section at the beginning is very narrow, with rocks five or six meters high on both sides. Looking up, behind these rocks are layers of stromatolites. The end of this layer of cliff cannot be seen at a glance. This is also the first level of the Devil's Bend.

Yu Miaomiao's feet never stopped for a moment, because at this time the rock wall on the side of him was gathering and squeezing towards the middle. When the first layer was solid, the second layer would continue to squeeze towards the middle, gathering layer by layer like this until there were no living things on this road and the stone wall would return to its original state.

She couldn't wait until she was crushed into a meat patty before leaving, so she had to get out of this initial journey as soon as possible.

There are two ways to escape from this section of the road. Climb up by continuously climbing diagonally to the second, third...Nth layer of rock wall, and finally slowly climb out of this section of the road.

Or you can just bite the bullet and move forward against the wind, and get out before the two sides of the first layer of rock walls completely merge.

She chose the second option, which was more efficient.

Grains of sand hit both sides of her face. Although her face was covered with plastic tape, some exposed skin was still rubbed by the pebbles. The friction made her very uncomfortable. She could only bury her head lower and use the safety helmet on her head to absorb the wind and sand.

But the wind direction here is not fixed. Sometimes it blows from the front, sometimes from the back, and sometimes even from the cracks in the rock walls on both sides, carrying larger stones. So she has to keep turning her head and speed up her pace.

She walked for about 8 minutes, counting the time silently in her mind.

Her elbows could already touch the rock wall. It seemed that the distance had been shrunk by half. She had no choice but to squeeze her arms as tight as possible and continue moving forward.

Iris and Huabie estimated that the time it takes to gather on the rock wall is about 15 minutes, and the length of the section is about one kilometer.

For each slant climb of a five-meter-high rock face, if you have enough physical strength, there is always enough time, but if you want to break out in a straight line, you must maintain the same speed as normal walking.

As Yu Miaomiao walked with her head down, she glanced ahead with the corner of her eye. She was almost there, just had to hold on a little longer.

She didn't check how much her physical strength had dropped, and she didn't dare to open her mouth to breathe and inhale stones. She could only adjust her breathing while trying her best to move forward.

The squeezing feeling of the rock wall, ignoring the protection of the shield and armor, directly pressed on her shoulders. In her view downwards, she could already see the end of the rock wall and the open exit, just a few steps away.

After walking for another 3 minutes, I couldn't go any further on the road. My sides were pressed down and I couldn't move forward at all, but it was not time to give up yet.

She quickly adjusted her posture, turned her body upright, faced her chest and back to the rock wall, and continued to move forward with her body tilted.

There are less than 10 steps left.

At this time, she no longer felt the weight on her legs, and her eyes were only focused on the exit that was just around the corner.

9 steps....8 steps.

The squeezed light gradually shrank, and the light in the space gradually became weaker, with only a ray of light at the exit shining over.

After 3 steps, the rock wall was almost sticking to her body, and an uncomfortable feeling of suffocation pressed on her chest.

With two steps, she had already stepped one leg out of the depressing gap, and with one step, she rubbed her back and rubbed her way out.

It’s out!

The originally dim vision suddenly brightened up.

She still walked slowly, and this section of the journey was extremely difficult.

But if you don't walk out in a straight line and climb the rock wall, you will waste more time and energy.

Iris said that when she first came here, she climbed out, which took more than an hour. This was based on her actual rock climbing experience.

Many survivors use their return cards when they are exhausted or can no longer bear the squeeze.

The moment I got out of the seam, I heard a shrill "Yi Yi Wu Wu" sound, like the howling of ghosts and wolves.

Before coming in, she didn't take the "ghost screams" seriously. After all, they were all in a doomsday game, and the ghosts were just portrayed by the system.

But this kind of mournful cry that hits the top of your head is really like several ghosts crying in your ears, making you feel sad and uncomfortable along with them.

The feeling of discomfort and suffocation that had just disappeared was instantly replaced by frustration and depression.

She tried her best to focus on the actual scenery of the expedition site and not feel the emotions in the sobs.

The scene in front of me has turned into rock walls of various shapes, and all the rocks have merged into two roads.

Devil's Bend also has side roads and main roads. So what information or animal manifestations represent side roads here? Regardless of which one, in order to obtain all the treasure chests, she must travel every road.

There were some dead grass and withered cacti growing on the gravel road, which could not be put into the backpack.

The strange noise in her ears gradually disappeared. When she reached the fork in the road, she heard "chirping" and "wooooo" sounds in the distance.

Standing at the mouth of a pointed cone-shaped rock, Yu Miaomiao could see a group of blue-haired monkeys and a group of hairless black-spotted red cats playing and fighting on two paths.

This numbered Devil's Bend adventure site is also one that Huabie and Iris have never visited, so the first branch route is different from what they said.

The blue-haired monkey and the hairless black-spotted red-skinned cat are similar in size, except that the monkey has six arms and the spotted cat has six tails.

The monkeys were fighting over a piece of unidentified meat, while the hairless black-spotted red cats were biting each other.

The smaller and weaker cat in the group was quickly bitten to pieces until all its flesh was eaten up. Then a new one came running over from a distance.

Drops of blood seeped into the ground and merged with the red rocks.

Could it be that the color of the rocks here is not caused by natural phenomena such as wind erosion or ancient crustal movement, but by blood...

Yu Miaomiao thought it was normal. It was a game system, so how could there be any real terrain? Even if the red color was not blood, it was just a system value.

The six-armed monkeys noticed the arrival of a human more quickly. They stopped fighting and bared their teeth at her.

Since they were demonstrating first, she would take this route first.

At this time, the wind and sand had passed. Yu Miaomiao skillfully drew her bow and shot arrow after arrow into the air. All the monkeys on the road fell to the ground one after another before they could rush to her. Each of the eight little monkeys was pierced by a fatal arrow.

Just as she was about to walk over, new monkeys came running over from the distance along the monkey path.
