Surprisingly, Xia Ning ranked in the top 10 out of 6,255 surviving players.
She expected to be in the top 1,000, but it seems she did better than she imagined.
Xia Ning continued browsing the [Vehicle] information, seemingly having gained some insight.
【Princess Phantom's Car (Level 3)】
Defense rating: 60 (tip: You would never guess how sturdy it is just by looking at it)
Attack value: 8 (tip: small animal killer)
[Equipment: Hazard sensors, crash barriers, in-vehicle navigation system]
[Appearance: -34 (tip: severely damaged)]
Fuel: Gasoline
[Points available: 0]
Excellent, the vehicle's defense stats have been certified as robust by the system.
The following items are currently in the backpack's ten slots: [Bleeding Bandage x1], [Gasoline x12], [Medium Medical Kit x6], [Poisonous Snake Gallbladder x3], [Peace Charm x3], [Ranked Match Entry Ticket x1], [Anti-inflammatory Medicine x2], [Colored Feathers x2], [Reinforced Crossbow Bolts x9], [Poisonous Frog Meat x3].
Xia Ning tidied up her backpack, leaving only: hemostatic bandages, gasoline, poisonous snake gall, amulet, reinforced crossbow bolts, and poisonous frog meat.
The other items, such as electronic components and electric eel meat, which arrived earlier, were temporarily stored in front of the supermarket checkout counter to make room for my backpack.
[Task] There is currently only one daily task: opening chests. I'll take that one for now.
Within the [Mall], the price of water resources has increased dramatically, once again drawing complaints.

Brother Fa: "5 survival points for a bottle of mineral water? That's robbery! I'd rather drink my own urine than buy a bottle of mineral water. That's what I'm saying."
Li Le: "It's not that bad, brother, it really isn't."
Tuttle: "You know what, drinking urine can really save your life."
Christian: "This life I saved has a foul smell about it."
I'm one ring above the Fifth Ring Road: "You guys actually have the leisure to spout nonsense, I'm impressed!"
Li Le: "The chat limit has been increased to five messages a day. Now I can say a couple of flirty things. Oh well, that's all."
Charge for glory: "I'll teach you a trick: a simple distillation device made from a plastic bottle."
Charge for glory: "Cut open a large and a small plastic bottle, fill the bottom half of the small bottle with seawater, and roll up the bottom of the large bottle to put it over the outside of the small bottle. This way, after the water vapor from the plant evaporates, the water vapor will adhere to the wall of the large bottle."
Tuttle: "Highlight the plants, bro. This trick worked on the previous map, but it doesn't work on the desert."
Wu Miqin: "Let's try anything, it's better than drinking urine."
Lulu: "Everyone be careful of quicksand when opening the boxes. This stuff is as deadly as a swamp."
Wusun Haisong: "Don't be too pessimistic. Maybe we'll see an oasis soon."
Daniel Wu of Nancheng: "Then you realize it's a mirage."
Takeshi Kaneshiro: "Then you found an Aladdin's lamp."
Lulu: "Then you rubbed together a little match girl."
Hong Kong's Hao Nan: "Damn, I saw someone riding a camel!"
Li Le: "NPC?! Or other players?! Or aliens?! Parallel universe?!"
Lulu: "Brother Haonan?"
I'm one ring above the Fifth Ring Road: "Holy crap! Look at the number of people!"
-
Upon hearing this, Xia Ning glanced up and her pupils dilated instantly.
The remaining number of people is 6254.
The player with the ID "Xiangjiang Haonan Ge" fell silent after saying that he had met other people.
The chat group instantly exploded with discussion. Whether Hong Kong's Hao Nan encountered a humanoid monster created by the instance or other players, he was undoubtedly attacked by sand bandits and perished in the endless yellow sand.
Xia Ning steadied herself; it was difficult to obtain any useful information from the chaotic chat room.
She is now equipped with hazard sensors and a car navigation system in her vehicle, so at least she is safe inside and not afraid of monster attacks.
Xia Ning didn't rush to remove the cover from the car in front; she changed her clothes first.
I found a white dress in the supermarket, put on a white sun-protective shirt, and then found a white headscarf.
Xia Ning didn't understand that a straight cylindrical shape helps dissipate heat. She only knew that black absorbs heat, white doesn't absorb heat easily, and that people in the desert wear white robes and headscarves.
There must be a reason why the locals dress this way; there's no harm in following their example.
Fortunately, Xia Ning's ugly car was silver-gray; if it were black, she would probably have had to modify the exterior first.
Even so, the car, without air conditioning, felt like a sauna. Xia Ning took a temperature reading and found it to be 45 degrees Celsius.
In the front-view mirror, her face was flushed, and her hair was soaked with sweat, clinging to her skin in strands.
Xia Ning had cut her long hair into a short, choppy style long ago because she thought it would dry too slowly. Now, the stray hairs were sticking to her face and neck, which was very uncomfortable.
She simply found a mesh shower cap and tucked all her hair inside.
As for its shape, it's not very attractive; it looks like an ugly orange from the supermarket.
It's okay, just strictly adhere to the guiding principle that "ugly-cute is still cute".
I also put an electric fan and an ice pack in the passenger seat, which made it feel much cooler.
The most important thing for desert survival is to stay hydrated, as daytime temperatures can cause heatstroke or dehydration in no time.
Another challenge is the huge temperature difference between day and night. The game focuses on marching in the desert at night and resting during the day, but the game encourages players to travel during the day.
Day 7 of survival.
Xia Ning had a cooling patch on her forehead and cheap, generic sunglasses perched on her nose. She stepped on the gas and drove toward the first treasure chest location on the minimap.
At this moment, the background music of a road trip adventure movie automatically played in Xia Ning's mind; she was the desert flower of the raging road...
Bang!
The background music suddenly stopped.
After a loud bang, Xia Ning's car traced a distorted arc on the road, screeching as it rubbed against the ground.
Xia Ning, still shaken, parked the car across the road, listening to the cold, mechanical announcement.
—The front left wheel of the Phantom Princess's car is damaged.
Please repair as soon as possible.
Xia Ning: "..."
Even if a tire blows out, it's usually only due to prolonged driving under conditions of high temperature and high speed that the tire pressure becomes too high.
Xia Ning doesn't dare to drive too fast to begin with, and being a newcomer, how could she be so unlucky?
The tire blew out right off the bat; an unregistered vehicle was used to commit murder for profit!
Xia Ning had no other choice but to use up her spare tire in frustration.
No wonder they don't offer insurance for dog games.
