Chapter 58: Gathering of Heroes
Song Yu'an wiped the sweat off his face roughly, and the towel became hard due to the high temperature.
"If that's not the case, then there must be an easier way."
"We just need to find it out." Qin Zhiyu added.
How was this sun "planted" there?
"Could it be that it was originally on the ground? Or is it just a spot of light in the sky?"
"What you mean is, just like the reflection of a mirror, there is a mirror on the ground that reflects the sunlight to one point, and the instantaneous high temperature can ignite the paper, which is the kind of mirror refraction effect." Tang Jinye's eyes lit up and he looked at Qin Zhiyu's idea with a little surprise.
"That's about what I mean." Qin Zhiyu replied.
"Let's go, quickly head east, follow the direction of the rising sun, and look to see if there is any mirror-like object on the ground." Song Yu'an said impatiently, the high temperature was about to melt his desire to get the reward.
"Apart from using a mirror, is there any other way to do it?" Wu Chufu said after understanding what they were discussing.
"Other ways, it depends on what tricks there are in this space." Tang Jinye said meaningfully, raising his eyes slightly.
The leather boots made a crunching sound as they stepped on the sand.
This subtle noise doesn't seem very noisy at ordinary times, but once it is heard in such an open and hot environment, it makes people feel more restless and irritable for no reason.
[Space construction is complete, all personnel have been transferred, and this space is now completely open]
[Turn on blocking of chat channels. You can see external messages but cannot reply.]
[Note: The hot environment in this space will affect the degree of heat outside. The outside temperature is 3 degrees Celsius higher than the temperature inside the space.]
After hearing the news, some people's first reaction was to feel lucky that they were staying inside the space. It was much hotter outside than inside the space. If it was unbearable inside, wouldn't it be even hotter outside?
But soon someone realized that something was wrong. Even if there was a space storage device, the device could not keep the food fresh, and each person could not bring much food after all.
The space I was teleported to was deserted, a wasteland with nothing but sand and stones. What would I eat after finishing the food in the device?
Moreover, it is so hot that we need a lot of water. How much water can we bring in? We can only survive for a few days, but how will we survive after that?
If they can't get out, they will surely die inside, and who knows how many people will suffer outside because they can't solve the problem of "planting the sun" inside.
"If that's the case, don't we shoulder the heavy responsibility of being the savior?" Lin Fangshan, who was heading west, said in a casual tone.
Standing beside him were Qiao Yi and three other strangers.
Qiao Yi and Lin Fangshan are such a strange pairing, no one knows when these two got together.
"We still can't be careless." The hot weather did not affect Qiao Yi's cool and handsome appearance.
For Qin Zhiyu and his group of four, no one had any drastic emotional fluctuations because of this news.
At this time, their thoughts were surprisingly consistent.
If you can break through this space, you will naturally gain your own benefits.
As for benefiting people outside, it doesn’t seem to have much to do with them. At most, it is icing on the cake.
For them, this "icing on the cake" would be no more practical than giving them an extra reward treasure chest.
It just so happened that none of the four of them had the heart to be a savior.
Boom...Boom...Boom.
Suddenly, statues rose from the ground in front of the four people.
A circle of sculptures emerged from the soil, intertwined with each other, and each sculpture was two meters high.
When a person stands up, he is shorter than the sculpture, and when looking at the sculpture, one cannot make out the shape of the sculpture.
When the first batch of sculptures stabilized and stopped moving, two large sculptures, one black and one white, rose from the ground in a diagonal line in the center of the horizon with a rumble.
Two three-meter-high black and white sculptures stand in the corner near the circle of smaller sculptures.
"The third batch!" Wu Chufu covered his mouth with his left hand and said in surprise as he looked at the third batch of sculptures rising.
This group of sculptures is similar in size and shape to the first group, with an arc-shaped structure that divides the two large sculptures into two.
Except for the large black and white sculpture in the middle, all the other sculptures are similar in size.
A continuous streamline divides the two large sculptures into two parts from the middle, and then combines them with the black and white sculpture in the middle.
"Is this the Tai Chi Bagua diagram?" Song Yu'an said with his pupils slightly dilated.
The peaceful state of two suns radiating heat in the sky is completed with the establishment of the entire sculpture group.
The two suns seemed to have received an order and suddenly lit up for a moment. The dazzling sunlight made it impossible to open one's eyes.
The moment the sun became brighter, everyone felt the scorching heat, and their skin was cracked due to the absorption of moisture, and it felt like being pricked by needles.
The temperature in the air suddenly rose, and the sweat that had just evaporated from the pores instantly turned into salt stains, sticking to the clothes and body.
"Huh? Could it be that this Tai Chi Bagua is causing trouble?" Tang Jinye said as he covered his eyes. The suddenly brighter environment made his eyes feel uncomfortable.
"It's probably a ghost thing that makes the two suns hotter. If we destroy them, can we get out of here?" Song Yu'an said as if he had figured it out.
"Will the system let us out so easily? They made such a big fuss to get us into this different dimension, and there are special rewards hanging in the balance. Could it be as easy as just destroying the statue?" Wu Chufu said with a frown.
"No matter whether it's easy or not, there is only this Tai Chi Bagua diagram in this space. It's only been a few days since the natural disaster, how difficult can it be? Are all of us going to die?" Song Yu'an was obviously very sure that it was the Tai Chi Bagua diagram that was the reason.
"I don't know whether it is true or not. Anyway, judging from the natural disaster, it may not want us all to survive." Tang Jinye said.
While a few people were communicating with each other, other teams also gathered from all directions to the location of the Tai Chi Bagua sculpture.
[Teams will be divided into teams of four, with priority given to teams that have already been established. Teams that do not meet the required number will be disbanded and randomly assigned.]
[25 teams are ranked according to performance points, and the top three teams receive special rewards]
"The rankings have appeared, and the competition has begun!" Wu Chufu looked up and said.
The halos around the sun gathered and dispersed, turning into the rankings of the teams.
Ranked first was Qin Zhiyu's team of four. The first person was defaulted as the captain, so Qin Zhiyu inexplicably became the captain.
Perhaps it was because they were the first to form a team, or perhaps it was because their team consisted of just the right number of people and they had always been traveling together as four people, so they had already become the number one team on the list before they had even taken any action.
The others looked at themselves lining up at the back and were unwilling to give in, even though they complained that there were not enough people or that they were being dispersed because there were too many people.
He also quickly kept pace with his team. After all, fools are a minority.
At this time, no one would think about brotherhood or that we must be on the same team. Such childish tricks do not exist.
He quickly teamed up with his new teammates and headed towards the sculpture area.
The sooner you form a good team, the sooner you can seize this advantage.
The system's broadcast continues.
[Each team attacks the Tai Chi Bagua sculpture independently. Each sculpture has a different attack method. Please crack the sculpture's attack method.]
[One point is awarded for each sculpture cracked, and the team with the most points wins.]
Defeat teams with the same number of sculptures, and the points will be ranked by time.
"I didn't expect that Song Yu'an teamed up with Wu Chufu and ranked first." Lin Fangshan said, stroking his beard.
"Do you know the other two people in their team?" Qiao Yi said as he opened the top button of his collar with his bony fingers.
"I don't know him, but we met once before we formed the team." Lin Fangshan said, recalling the time when he, Wu Chufu and Song Yu'an first met, Qin Zhiyu, who had been standing by without saying a word, neither curious nor interfering.
Qiao Yi didn't get the answer he wanted, so he didn't say anything else.
He thought of the owner of the Dawn Shelter and wondered if he was also in this trial.
…
"Go! We are first now, and we will definitely be first in the end." Song Yu'an licked the corner of his mouth and said with a determined look.
"That has to be it."
"Let's go!"
"Let's go."
Qin Zhiyu set off with his team members.
Incredibly, no one in the team questioned whether Qin Zhiyu was suitable to be the captain.
Considering that the others didn't seem to want to be the captain and there were no special rewards for being the captain, they didn't care who was the captain, so Qin Zhiyu would be the captain himself.
"Oh my god, look at them riding bicycles! They are so rich! Bicycles are so expensive, yet they all have one."
"What kind of team is this? Did they know each other before? Isn't this cheating?"
"It must be those big guys at the top of the leaderboard. Those who upgraded their stone shelters. After so many days of accumulating resources, they wouldn't be short of this little money. Who knows, they might be able to upgrade to the next level right away!"
"I'm so jealous! When can I be so lucky and rich like them?"
"Forget it! Don't you think they have no ability and are just lucky? If they were lucky, they would be number one all over the world! What's the point of this ranking?"
"Hey! I was just joking, why is it so serious?"
…
As the four bicycles moved forward side by side, the teams that saw this scene from afar complained a lot.
"If you ask me, even if we didn't get the reward from defeating the statue this time, having these four bicycles, one for each of us brothers, wouldn't it be a huge profit!" Xu Tao said with a ferocious smile on his face.
"Isn't that the truth? Let's go!" Xu Tao's teammate next to him said with a greedy look on his face.
"This is another good opportunity for the four of us brothers to make a fortune! Be more observant, it's time to pick up the bargains!" said Xu Tao.
"The right time, right place, and right people have given us four brothers such a great opportunity, and we must cherish it."
"Set off!"
…
"A lot of people have noticed us. Our bicycles are like fat sheep in their eyes!" Tang Jinye seemed to have noticed something and said after looking around.
After all, Qin Zhiyu's team has two women and only two men, compared to other teams which basically have four men.
One is a modest young man, and the other is the type who dresses to look thin. They both look like they don't have much skills, so naturally they will be regarded as fat sheep by other teams.
But what they want is the most important special reward, and they don't want to hide and run over at this time, which will undoubtedly slow them down a lot.
"Let's hurry up, we'll be there soon. If anyone dares to treat us as fat sheep, come and give us a try!" Song Yu'an snorted and laughed.
From a distance, they saw someone rushing to the sculpture at a very fast speed.
"Be prepared. We don't know what kind of attacks these sculptures will have." Wu Chufu said as she took out a pair of daggers. Paired with her sexy short skirt, she looked very hot.
"Test it out in advance and find out the sculpture's attack methods before getting close." Qin Zhiyu thought of the time when he fought the cactus before.
"How do we test it?" Wu Chufu said.
"Let's surround one person first with four people, and use long-range weapons first." Tang Jinye continued.
"I'm using a long sword. Long-range weapons can only be thrown." Song Yu'an said, padding the long sword.
"I brought a lot of axes and shovels. Let's use these!" Qin Zhiyu said, throwing these things at his feet.
Now they are fifty meters away from the statue. I don’t know what the other three people think of this distance, but if they have a little luck and their attribute points increase, they will be able to throw it over.
If her arm strength is not enough for such a short distance, then she has to think carefully about how much effort it will take to lead this team.
When Qin Zhiyu walked in, he found that these sculptures looked a little familiar.
Above is a group portrait of a person with a horse's body and a pony's tail, which looks like the Sagittarius in the twelve zodiac signs.
It didn't look like the big webbed footprints she had seen before. Could this be another race?
Why are there still no living ethnic groups to be seen, and only these relics of their civilization remain in this world?
"Get out of the way!" Tang Jinye lifted his clothes and calmly dodged a flying arrow and said.
"The first sculpture!" More than one arrow was shot at Song Yu'an. He bent down to avoid the first arrow, and then quickly used the force of bending back to do a backflip to avoid the second arrow.
"Good skills!" Tang Jinye exclaimed.
The other two people also saw this scene, and couldn't help but wonder if they could dodge the arrow if it hit them.
The sculpture's arrow was truly elusive! It was so accurate and powerful! Not even a sound of it breaking through the air was heard.
By the time you realize it, the arrow is already close to your face. To dodge this arrow requires not only agility but also sharp perception. If the perception is not high enough, no matter how agile you are, it will be useless if you don't have time to use it.
"No need to test! We will all attack at close range, dodge the arrows and get closer to the sculpture." Qin Zhiyu said after assessing the situation.
There was no weak person in the team and she didn't need to worry about him, although she had never seen Wu Chufu take action.
But seeing that the other two male teammates also treated her with respect, it goes without saying that Wu Chufu must have some strength.
Then just stick it to your face!
Even with these two axes, they would most likely not be able to destroy the statue from a distance.
There is also a time limit for team rankings, so just approach the sculptures to find out what doors they have, destroy the mechanisms they launch, and then find a way to destroy the sculptures!
"How about Tang Jinye come and compete with us?" He knew that Song Yu'an's previous operation was extremely beautiful, so he said with a proud smile.
"Haha, how do we compare?" Tang Jinye also answered excitedly.
Thank you Dielianhua Yaling for the monthly ticket!!
