Back on shore, Mao Liu was sitting on the ground, seemingly lost in thought.
His eyes were lifeless. Following his gaze, one could see a vast, empty sea, the very place that Xiao Jin had emptied by collecting ice.
Xiao Jin raised an eyebrow, first clearing away the ice on the shore, then kicked him with her leg.
"It's been an hour. Are you planning to wait for Jensen to come find you?"
Mao Liu shuddered, looked up and saw Xiao Jin's ambiguous smile. He was so frightened that he shivered and didn't dare to think about what 1000 plus n would be.
"Let's go, okay, right away, right away." He patted the snow off himself and quickly followed behind Xiao Jin.
It wasn't until the helicopter took off that Mao Liu snapped out of his daze, and he quietly patted his forehead.
Mao Liu, Mao Liu, are you out of your mind?!
The leaderboard clearly states 4,000 points. Where would I get another 10,000? Besides, the storage space sold in the system is only 5 square meters, while the big shot's ice block is over 10 square meters. It must be some other high-level storage item.
Didn't they say that when you're at the top of the leaderboard, the top players get high-level treasure chests? Maybe the top players get their space from those treasure chests.
The more Mao Liu thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct, and at the same time, tears welled up in his eyes.
He absolutely refuses to admit that he's so sour, incredibly sour!
but……
Wiping away the suspicious liquid from the corner of his eye, Mao Liu looked at his storage space. Although it was only five square meters, it was big enough to hold a dozen or so pieces of ice the size of washbasins.
Hehehe! Mao Liu let out a strange laugh.
You can't go wrong by following the big shots!
...
As they flew further south, everyone could feel the outside temperature gradually rising, and this change was extremely rapid. Even though it was winter, there was no snow on the road.
Jason's expression was always heavy, and Xiao Jin could feel his urgent anxiety even through him. As soon as they entered Chinese territory, they were forced to land, abandon the helicopter, and switch to land travel.
"Wow, it's about to catch fire, it's really about to catch fire, it must be over thirty degrees now, right?" Mao Liu was wearing a thin nano-shirt underneath a hooded jacket.
The hat was firmly wrapped around his head, but Mao Liu's face was still sunburned, so he had to desperately fan his face with his hand.
There was nothing he could do; he was wearing advanced protective gear, but not on his face.
The promised winter suddenly disappeared, and Jason no longer needs to buy thick clothes.
An Lian, driving, laughed and said, "Thirty degrees isn't enough; it's probably almost forty degrees now!"
Due to the high temperature, the group had no choice but to drive to the capital. What was originally a journey that would only take a few hours was inexplicably extended to a whole day.
Starting at 3 a.m., the outside temperature suddenly rose sharply, and the accumulated ice and snow melted instantly like burning wax.
Floods broke out in various parts of the country in a short time.
But what terrified everyone was not the flood, but the fact that as temperatures continued to rise, all the water began to evaporate in large quantities, and the melted snow water was replaced by the evaporation of river and lake water.
In just three hours, water levels dropped visibly in various places, and food that was normally easy to store in winter began to rot.
The unprecedented warming has plunged the world into panic.
Just two hours ago, temperatures in equatorial countries had generally exceeded 70 degrees Celsius, and many people died from the heat and dehydration.
In China, the city where Xiao Jin and his group landed by helicopter was relatively cool, but the temperature still reached 38 or 39 degrees Celsius, and some cities in the south even reached 50 degrees Celsius.
Everything changed in just one night.
Jason and his group of twelve people used three cars.
I don't know what kind of mission these people were on, but they made things incredibly easy for us along the way.
After the plane landed, Jason made a phone call, and then a car was brought to them. However, while waiting for the car, they were almost roasted to a crisp.
Finally, they got into the car. Anlian immediately turned on the air conditioning, and soon the heat on Mao Liu's face disappeared, leaving only a burning sensation.
Without trying to hide it from Jason and the others, Mao Liu pulled out a bottle of healing spray and sprayed it all over his face.
The next second, a chill swept over him, and Mao Liu's expression visibly relaxed.
Ah~ that feels so good~
Jason, sitting in the passenger seat, looked away from the barren, yellow earth outside the window. It was alright, though, because farming stopped in the north during the winter; otherwise, the crops would have been completely lost.
However, drought was inevitable in the country, and it was uncertain whether there would be enough drinking water. With this in mind, Jensen felt that they should prepare some water and food as soon as possible.
Let's get right to it.
Once in the city, Jason asked Anlian to park the car in front of a large supermarket, and then got out of the car.
"He Yu, bring your men and come inside with me."
Just as Jason was about to leave, he heard the sound of the car door closing behind him. He turned around and, sure enough, saw that troublesome child getting out as well.
Jason took a deep breath: "Why did you come down here in this heat?"
Xiao Jin wore a light black silk shirt, her long legs were tightly wrapped in a pair of carefully washed black jeans, the lines were smooth and powerful, and her shoes were spotless.
Compared to that face, he looked like some naive young master from a wealthy family.
It's unclear what kind of constitution Xiao Jin has, but even though Jian Sen had only been out for a minute, he was already sweating, while the child's forehead remained clean and dry. Coupled with his indifferent expression, it was as if he had drunk a sip of ice water on a hot summer day, making people feel very comfortable.
Xiao Jin was wearing a scale armor protective suit worth ten thousand, which allowed him to move freely even in a raging fire, so a mere high temperature was naturally no problem for him.
Unlike ordinary protective suits, which are often considered useless due to their temperature-regulating properties, the scale armor protective suit is temperature-regulating in all parts of the body.
As soon as Xiao Jin came out, Mao Liu and the other two also got out of the car.
Xiao Jin strode over to Jian Sen, then, in front of everyone, stretched out her palm, waved her small hand, and uttered two words: "Give me the money."
Jensen: "?"
Five minutes later, Xiao Jin, clutching what was supposedly Jian Sen's salary card, swaggered into the supermarket.
Xu Qing walked beside her, his expression somewhat strange. He gave Xiao Jin a thumbs up: "Brilliant! You can do that?"
"Ha, what else? This time the system is being inhumane. Not only did it dump us in such a godforsaken place, it also didn't give us any coins. How are we going to buy supplies without money?" Mao Liu chuckled from the side.
