We're waiting for you in front of us
Chapter 1
【Welcome to the highway survival challenge! 】
[Challenge age: 20~60 years old]
You will drive original vehicles to challenge roads in different environments. By killing monsters outside the car, picking up treasure chests, exchanging in the mall, trading with challengers, etc., you can improve the performance of the vehicle, and finally complete the stage challenge to gain extraordinary abilities.
【Warning! This is not a game, losers will die in the challenge! 】
…
Wei Huan's eyes blurred, and when he opened them again, he found himself sitting in a broken car.
The car was very old, like an old Hongguang mini van that had been driven in the mountains for more than ten years.
The back seats were gone, revealing the mottled car body and years of dust. The empty compartment was the only place to rest in this car.
It's like a motorhome, but gives people the feeling of being homeless.
Outside the gray windshield, you can see towering spruce trees on both sides of the road, and a straight road stretching to the end of the field of vision.
Looking up, you can see a few soft white clouds floating in the blue sky of "Yitiantian".
His gaze fell on a bronze box placed on the roadside a hundred meters away. The mysterious patterns and faint green light were all meant to show its presence.
It's like waving, "Come open me~"
Wei Huan turned his gaze away from the bronze box indifferently.
He skillfully found the ignition and turned the flimsy key, and the "knock, knock, knock" sound of the engine was deafening in the car.
He stepped on the clutch with one foot and shifted into gear. The car made a "creaking" sound and shook as it drove forward.
Take a moment to glance at the dashboard.
The dashboard is probably the only advanced thing on this crappy car.
The old-fashioned odometer showed 10 miles per hour and one bar of fuel remaining, enough to support 20 kilometers.
But apart from these two points, the data should be on the dashboard.
The rest of the display interface is a bit weird.
Four sections appeared on the dashboard: [Chat Room], [Forum], [Mall], and [Auction House].
Currently, except for the [Chat Room] section, all other sections are gray.
There are two buttons below it: [Projection Mode] and [Computer Mode].
Wei Huan turned on the [Projection Mode] with ease, and the screen that was originally only on the dashboard was instantly projected onto the windshield.
You can see the screen and the road ahead at the same time.
This alone is completely different from the technological content presented by this shabby van, and is extremely inconsistent.
When Wei Huan opened the [Chat Room], he happened to pass by the bronze box.
At the same time, he saw the chat room displayed (1000/1000 people).
Chat messages, scrolling like crazy.
You Hao: Reporting from Lingnan District, Anyang City, Province C. Add me as a friend.
Yuan Tian: Alumni of City B University added me as a friend. Thank you.
[Mo An: Beijing Challenge University added me as a friend.]
…
[Zhou Yueliang: Wow, it's just like the legend. So exciting!]
Li Yuxuan: I was so excited I couldn't sleep all night. I've been sharpening my sword for five years, waiting for this moment. I'm the one who will pass the level. I will become a peerless hero!
Xu Yuan: Are you crazy? Are you still looking forward to taking on this challenge? If I were dead, you wouldn't be able to laugh anymore!
Shi Hengjun: You've all been taught this in school, right? After entering a challenge, don't occupy the public channel. Quickly find your classmates, or other challengers in your province or city, and join your friends. This can greatly increase your chances of survival.
When Wei Huan saw this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It was the same opening as in his previous life. Since then, he kept recalling this moment and knew it by heart.
For example, the instructor's long text that dominated the screen would appear...
[縢嘉阳: Hello everyone, I'm the instructor for the Junior Class in the Daxia Challenge Zone. Please don't panic, follow the school's instructions, and determine your surroundings and fuel levels. Do not open chests below Iron level. If there's no Iron chest in the first three chests, don't panic, and don't leave your vehicle. Enter "Apply for Challenge Subsidy + ID Number" in the chat room, and you'll soon receive a 20-kilometer fuel allowance from the Challenge Legion via email. This will ensure you reach the Iron chest. If that still doesn't work, you can apply for the next round of fuel subsidies according to the loan order you've already applied for...]
That’s right, [Road Challenge] has been coming to Blue Planet for seven years.
This is a real-life challenge of the highway escape type.
The initial mortality rate was as high as 90%.
Later, as the years and sessions passed, the challenge experiences summarized by the predecessors were made public, and the death toll decreased year by year.
Some of the seniors who entered the challenge first even found opportunities to return to the first level and provided corresponding resources for the newcomers.
Twenty kilometers of fuel supply may not seem like much, but it allows newcomers to basically find [Black Iron Level] treasure chests.
According to the first treasure chest, there is a certain probability of getting an extraordinary potion.
The [Black Iron Treasure Chest], which is more advanced than the [Bronze Treasure Chest], will definitely reveal higher-star extraordinary abilities and a certain probability of legendary professions.
This will not only greatly improve the starting level of the same group of challengers.
It will also be beneficial for challengers to team up with their predecessors in the later stages. The challenge has already held up Da Xia's progress for two full years.
In every aspect, this is the best arrangement at the moment.
In fact, this is true.
This arrangement allowed the Daxia Challenge Team to always remain the world's top team, and they persisted for eleven years during the terrifying monster invasion.
Unfortunately, in the end, the humans on Blue Star were unable to complete the sixth level of the [Highway Challenge] and were crushed by the seventh-level "Monster Lord" on the opposite side.
When Daxia fell, it also meant that Blue Star was completely defeated in the plane war.
Wei Huan hid under the "big umbrella" of Daxia and was protected, and lived for another eleven years.
Until he opened his eyes again, he was back.
Ignore the bronze treasure chest that is slowly passing by on the road.
He didn't open this treasure chest in his previous life, and he won't open it in this life either.
Soon the bronze treasure chest fell behind the car and gradually went away and could no longer be seen.
Leaving the first treasure chest means that the challenger has left, which is an absolute safe zone.
If you are unlucky, you may soon encounter a monster wandering on the road.
If the challenger encounters another monster that can overturn a car, he will be doomed.
Humans will not be merciful to the monsters that invade the Blue Planet, and monsters will not be merciful to humans that invade their planes.
The Plane War has been going on for the seventh year. Both sides have gone from being naive and ignorant in the beginning to having a deep blood feud and killing each other as soon as they meet.
Wei Huan also took a special look at the number of people in the chat room.
【999/1000】.
Sure enough, one person died at the beginning.
There was also a falling out in the chat room.
【One died?】
[No way? He died right at the beginning? He got off the car?]
[Perhaps it's a rare event, a monster has entered the road.]
[During the novice protection period, how unlucky you must be to encounter a stray monster.]
…
Although it was not authentic, the drop in the number made Wei Huan's tense shoulders relax again.
Repeated experiences mean that he is indeed reliving everything that happened in his previous life.
So, the next box is the Black Iron Treasure Chest.
As if to confirm Wei Huan's idea, ten minutes later, a treasure chest emitting a dim black light appeared on the roadside again.
The black iron treasure chest is larger, one meter long, with a more complex and simple retro shape and a thicker texture. It looks more imposing than the bronze treasure chest at first glance.
At the same time, on the windshield in front, the instructor was still refreshing the chat room information on the screen.
[Gu Jiayang: ...Never open treasure chests below the Iron level. If there is no Iron chest among the first three treasure chests, do not panic, and do not leave the vehicle...]
In other words, you can open the black iron treasure chest when you see it.
The extraordinary potions provided in the Black Iron Treasure Chest are at worst two-star, and if you're lucky you might even get a three-star potion.
Three stars are extraordinary, enough to cope with the first four road challenges, and are treated well and reused in the challenge legion.
In his previous life, Wei Huan was lucky enough to obtain a three-star potion in this treasure chest, and then awakened the [Farmer] profession through the potion.
[Farmer] → [Warrior] → [Real Soldier]...
Without the need to prepare third-level potions in advance, it only took him four years to successfully advance to [True Soldier].
It can manifest three 3x3 cubic meters of any individual weapon that it has recently come into contact with.
The [Farmer] profession is also the most awakened profession on Blue Star, and will be recruited by the Challenge Legion without exception.
At the same time, Daxia also clearly knows the profession where the fourth and fifth level potions are located.
Wei Huan had accumulated enough points in his previous life and had applied for a fourth-level potion, but unfortunately he died before he could get it.
His eyes were fixed on the black iron treasure chest, and there was a hint of hesitation in his heart.
He is very familiar with the [Farmer Sequence] and believes he can do better if he does it again.
Perhaps within a year, he would be able to be promoted to a [True Soldier] and obtain the fourth-level [King of Soldier] sequence potion.
Then finally, step by step, you reach the end of the sequence and become the [God of War].
But in the end, Wei Huan firmly shifted his gaze away from the black iron treasure chest, stepped on the accelerator, accelerated past, and left without looking back.
He came back not to take the old road again, but to try the white treasure chest that he had been thinking about for more than ten years and had only caught a glimpse of when he looked out of the car.
Silver treasure chest, a higher level treasure chest than black iron treasure chest.
A three-star potion is guaranteed to appear, with a chance of a four-star potion appearing.
Moreover, potions in treasure chests above silver have a greater probability of awakening a "legendary profession", with a higher starting point and a larger upper limit.
However, in his previous life, he missed the white treasure chest because he strictly adhered to the rule that newcomers were not allowed to get off the bus, which eventually became a regret.
After confirming his rebirth, Wei Huan decided that even if he died again, he would still seek out the truth and make up for his regrets.
He wanted to see what he had missed out on back then!
After leaving the black iron treasure chest, the third treasure chest is still the bronze treasure chest.
Wei Huan clearly remembered that the silver treasure chest was twenty kilometers ahead.
In other words, you only need to apply for national subsidies once.
Without giving himself time to hesitate, Wei Huan spoke in the chat room.
【Apply for Challenge Grant + ID Number】
Without any questions, two minutes later, the red dot in the upper right corner of the control panel began to flicker.
Click to see the email sent by [Daxia Challenge Materials Bureau].
The email content is displayed.
