Chapter 169
At 11:45, announcements about the distribution of survival capsules were broadcast in all carriages on the train.
"Dear passengers, Train 391 will cease operation in half an hour. Passengers eligible for survival capsules, please proceed to Carriage 1 for emergency evacuation as soon as possible!"
The broadcast was played three times before it stopped. In every carriage that Yitu passed through, brutal fighting and killing were taking place.
Three hundred binding quotas, three hundred identity cards that can be plundered, the strong survive and the weak are eliminated.
All players follow this unique rule of the game, and Yitu is no exception.
He did not take part in the fight and was merely a passer-by.
Only when those people rushed forward with murderous eyes would he make a slight move to stop them.
The further we go, the fewer players there are in the carriage, and it becomes exceptionally quiet.
The only ones who can survive are the weak players who are not qualified to bind to the survival capsule and have already accepted to wait for death silently.
They were also able to safely pass through each carriage, and some were even standing on the open-air platform outside carriage No. 1, watching the security officers check the player information one by one and distribute survival capsules.
The survival capsule was even smaller than Yitu had imagined. There were only two seats close together, making it impossible to lie down or stretch out.
Under the base of the seat, there is a pull-out item box that stores a small amount of fresh water and compressed food.
No one knows how the survivors can solve the problems of eating, drinking, defecating and urinating in such a small survival capsule.
Everyone was worried. Even if some of them got the survival capsule, there was no guarantee that they would pass the level successfully.
No one knows what exists under the sea, or where the stone gate is located.
What's more, the train was also moving while the survival capsules were being distributed.
This means that there is a certain distance between the last cabin to leave the train and the next cabin to leave the train.
The only time when the specific coordinates can be determined is 12 o'clock sharp. The train will pass the terminal on time, and the broadcast will also announce the arrival of Yuemoyan.
Only then can they clearly determine their location.
The stone gate that leads to the customs is most likely related to the terminal station, the End of the Rock.
You know, the game won't give out irrelevant information and clues for no reason.
The geography room on the train recorded in detail the coordinates and location of End of the Moon Rock, although there were also some other cities.
Most players can figure this out and grasp this, but few can accurately calculate the corresponding speed, mileage and time like a math teacher.
Among them, many survival capsules will be thrown into disarray by the inertia of the train itself at the moment of being lowered because they are unfamiliar with the operation.
By the time you react, you may have missed the best marking point and lost yourself in the sea.
The end-of-the-month rock associated with the stone gate has long since sunk to the bottom of the sea, and after three years of erosion by sea water, it has lost its exact location.
After thinking carefully about all the difficulties, no one would think that passing the level 100 is an easy task.
The train conductor placed a new type of energy in the survival capsule, which can be used for up to one month.
In other words, the latest limit for passing this level is one month, and you will be eliminated if you cannot find the exit.
The survival capsules were distributed one after another, and their red oval appearance floated on the sea, making them look like fishing buoys.
However, their function at this time is indeed no different from that of buoys. Yitu records the locations where these survival capsules disappear one by one for rough calculation.
The train was moving at a fairly fast speed, and soon the survival capsules at the rear of the train disappeared from view. It was also possible that they had maneuvered themselves into the sea.
Yitu waited in line and watched quietly.
The survival capsule has been distributed to No. 30. After the security officer read the information on the screen, he called out the number to the audience in the stands.
Only a woman wearing a green embroidered cheongsam and with her black hair tied up in a bun walked up gracefully.
Her facial features are not very stunning, but they are very attractive, and there is a charming charm in every move she makes.
The woman handed over her ID card and was quickly recognized. She then lifted the hem of her cheongsam, revealing a pair of snow-white, slender legs, and sat in the survival capsule.
However, the other player bound to survival capsule No. 30 has not appeared yet.
The information officer was already quite impatient. After calling out a few times but no one responded, he stopped waiting and simply lowered the survival capsule.
For a moment, many players felt very sad, and some even stood on the stage stomping their feet and cursing, their faces distorted with anger.
At this moment, someone on the stage suddenly jumped off the stands, attracting everyone's attention.
The man was a slender young man who was less than 20 years old. He was not swallowed by the sea water, but stood steadily on the water surface.
He ran straight towards the survival capsule that had just been thrown away at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, he grabbed the closed hatch with both hands.
The woman sitting in the cabin was obviously startled, but quickly regained her composure.
Once the survival capsule's program is activated, the hatch cannot be opened from the outside unless someone inside presses a button.
Unless it is dismantled violently.
Yitu watched this scene. The young man anxiously slammed the cabin window, trying to talk to the woman in the cabin.
However, the woman just looked at him quietly, remaining indifferent.
The young man became more and more anxious and irritable. Drops of sweat from his forehead hit the hatch above, and he kept pleading.
"Please let me in, please!"
"Why don't you let me in! You could have saved someone! You vicious woman!"
In just a dozen seconds, the train had traveled a long distance. Even if he wanted to get back on the train, it was impossible.
The young man's expression gradually became ferocious, and he clenched his fists and smashed them directly on the cabin door.
This was far from enough, he even took out an ice-tempered dagger and used all his strength to stab the hatch under him.
Since the woman refuses to open the door, let's die together.
The hatch is broken and they can't go out to sea, so none of them can survive.
This move did make the woman's face change slightly. She immediately pressed the button on her right hand, and the hatch finally opened.
The young man immediately breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed the dagger and dived in without thinking.
"Little boy, aren't you a little too anxious?"
The woman's voice was as soft as jade, and with a hint of smile, she reached out and grabbed the young man's arm, as if to welcome him.
However, the young man's heart was filled with alarm. Just as he was about to shake off the woman's hand, he found that all his strength was drained from his body the next second.
He could only watch helplessly as the woman gave him a light push with an expressionless face, and he fell into the sea and melted away without a trace in an instant.
The players standing in the stands all craned their necks to watch. They didn't understand the details of the incident, but only saw the man suddenly fall into the sea. Just as they were wondering, someone sighed and said,
"You're really not afraid of death. You dare to do this."
"That woman sucked several players to death in the same compartment. She's very vicious."
"Suck it to death? What do you mean?"
"What else could it mean? It's literally like that. Her card can absorb anything, tangible or intangible, like time, power, flesh and blood..."
"Holy crap? Is he that perverted?!"
"It's impossible for someone this strong to not be on the leaderboard. Could he be a newcomer?"
"It's very likely a newcomer. After all, tower climbing activities are never short of fresh blood, especially newcomers who can adapt to the game faster than us. Sigh..."
Yitu listened silently for a while, and his mood became a little subtle.
At this time, the information officer had called No. 32, and Yitu walked towards the boarding deck without hesitation.
The player who had previously bid for 3,560 tower climbing reward points was already waiting eagerly on the side.
He just waited for Yi Tu to nod so that he could go into the cabin.
In fact, after Yitu completed the identity verification, he was about to call him up when a powerful voice suddenly shouted:
"Wait! I'm willing to offer a higher price!"
"Three thousand six! I'll pay three thousand six for the card in your hand, little brother!"
Yi Tu was slightly stunned. He turned around and saw Zhang Min, who was wearing an old man's shirt, lying on the viewing area and waving his hand at him. His expression was as expectant as a student waiting for the teacher to call his name.
"The Red Queen and I have already made an agreement. Can you please stop causing trouble, old man?"
The player who was being pressured into paying the price suddenly became anxious, his face instantly darkened, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Zhang Min showed fear on his face, but still bravely shouted to Yi Tu:
"Little brother, can I bid again? You didn't mention a deadline!"
When Yitu heard this, he couldn't help but laugh: "Indeed, I haven't mentioned the deadline yet."
The player's expression suddenly changed, and he said sternly:
"Over 3,500 tower climbing rewards are already quite a bit. Red Queen, you shouldn't be so greedy. You're just causing unnecessary competition!"
Yitu glanced at him calmly and raised his eyebrows.
"Are you saying that I didn't follow the rules?"
An invisible pressure descended upon him, but the man still gritted his teeth and replied:
"I just feel like there's no point in continuing this fight."
Yitu smiled and said, "Since I have followed the rules of the game, Mr. Wang, please don't waste your time with me."
The man's expression immediately changed, "How do you know my last name is Wang?!"
At this time, Zhang Min hurriedly urged:
"Hey, big brother, are you ready to bid? Hurry up."
At this point, the player surnamed Wang had no choice but to grit his teeth and move forward.
"I'll give you three thousand seven!"
"Three thousand eight!" Zhang Min followed closely.
"Three thousand and nine!" Wang Rongxian also added.
"four thousand!"
"Four thousand two!"
Zhang Min didn't expect the young man to be so persistent. After thinking about it, he reported a number that ordinary people would be afraid to pay.
"Five thousand!"
"Brother, are you going to add more?" Zhang Min looked at Wang Rongxian. He seemed confident on the surface, but he was actually afraid that the man would add more.
However, 4,800 was already Wang Rongxian's limit, so how could he keep up?
"I won't join you anymore. You're so cruel, old man." Wang Rongxian glared at him hatefully and walked away.
Zhang Min's face immediately lit up with joy. Just as the two were about to pass each other, Wang Rongxian suddenly turned around, took out a knife, and stabbed Zhang Min in the back with a ferocious look on his face.
Yi Tu, who saw all this, sneered and raised his hand slightly, and Wang Rongxian's knife was knocked to the ground by the wind blade.
Zhang Min realized it later and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Looking for death?" Yitu looked at Wang Rongxian coldly. The latter showed a hint of fear on his face and hurriedly left the boarding deck.
Zhang Min quickly ran to Yi Tu's side, "Thank you, little brother, thank you!"
Yitu said nothing, took out the card reader and raised his eyebrows.
Zhang Min's face suddenly turned bitter. After giving Yi Tu 5,000 points of tower climbing reward, he covered his chest with his hands in pain.
Yitu knew that this man had good acting skills, so he didn't bother to pay attention to the old man and turned around to enter the survival cabin.
After the two were ready, they felt dizzy and the survival capsule was thrown into the sea.
After adapting to the small and stuffy space, Yitu took a quick look at the buttons at hand and began to operate them in a professional manner.
Zhang Min chatted with him from time to time, but Yi Tu was concentrating on calculating the position of the end rock and didn't pay much attention to him.
The old man shut up and stopped bothering him.
The survival capsule floated on the sea for only a short while before sinking into the pitch-black seabed.
I couldn't find the direction, and couldn't see any fish. It was dead silent.
Zhang Min felt so uncomfortable that he really wanted to speak, but he could only shout "Oh my God!" in a low voice.
Yi Tu smiled helplessly after hearing this. He had always remembered the coordinates of the Moon End Rock and also noticed the time when they went into the sea. It was only two minutes before 12 o'clock.
Although the survival capsule is not as fast as the train, the location of End of Month Rock is not difficult to find after a rough calculation.
The only difficulty was that there were two survival capsules following closely behind them, less than fifty meters away.
Yitu's divine sense had sensed it at the first moment, the familiar Red Heart identity player, the familiar team signature.
"Don't scream later, okay?" Yi Tu suddenly warned.
Zhang Min was confused and said, "Huh? What?"
However, just as he finished speaking, the survival capsule suddenly turned around and crashed backwards.
"Fuck! What are you doing!?"
"Shut up."
The three survival capsules collided violently on the seabed, causing unrest in the small sea area.
Chen Yan squinted his eyes and took a breath, his right hand lazily resting on his brother's shoulder, watching the fight in the distance that looked like a magic show.
"Brother Rui, are you overthinking it? He's really weak."
Chen Miao frowned slightly, controlling the direction of the survival capsule with one hand and pulling the cigarette butt out of his brother's mouth with the other, and scolded:
"It's so stuffy in here, and you're still smoking?"
Chen Yan smiled indifferently, turned his head and looked at his brother. Looking at the face that looked exactly like his own, he reached out and pinched it.
"I'm asking you a question."
Chen Miao waved his hand away coldly and turned his gaze back to the survival capsule not far away.
There were only two cabins left, and one had been torn into pieces at some point and was almost melting into the sea.
He still couldn't answer his brother's words, but whispered:
"Chen Yan, I actually hate killing people."
"Yeah, I know, brother."
The small survival cabin soon became quiet. The Gemini's unique tacit understanding and inner inspiration did not require too many words.
They didn't have to wait long, and the survival capsule where the Queen of Hearts was located unsurprisingly crashed into the enemy who dared to provoke them.
Chen Yan said "huh" to indicate that he was bored, and then immediately turned the survival capsule around.
As soon as the Chen twins left, Yitu changed direction according to the specific location of the Moon End Rock.
Because the former walked so quickly, the latter did not notice anything unusual for a while.
After arriving at the location of the End of the Moon Rock according to the predetermined coordinates, as expected, no remains of any buildings were seen.
Yitu thought about it, then operated the survival capsule to start sinking.
They sank gradually for nearly two or three hundred meters. The oxygen in the cabin was gradually depleted and reduced. Zhang Min's face turned red, and the cabin made a dull sound under the strong pressure.
"Did we get the wrong location? We'll suffocate if we sink any deeper!"
Yitu remained unmoved and continued to operate the survival capsule to continue sinking. After 800 meters, they finally saw the stone door that was completely upright on the seabed.
