Chapter 221 The Tsunami is Coming
In the end, as more and more players flocked to the hotel, the hotel could no longer adjust and simply forced people of the same gender to stay in the same room.
"These are extraordinary times. The heavy rain and flooding have already flooded the lobby. Everyone has nowhere to stay. What's wrong with you giving away half of the room space?"
"Besides, your rooms all have two beds. How can you waste beds like this and make us sleep outside in the corridor and soak in the water? Is that right?"
Faced with the relentless pressure from the NPCs in the hotel and dungeon, the players chose to be patient for the time being.
I have to hold on, it's only the second night of the game.
They can't act rashly, they still have three days to stay in the game.
On the third day of the game, the flood had already reached the sixth floor.
The hotel's floors below the sixth are no longer habitable, so residents have no choice but to move upstairs.
As for the residents who were already living in the room, they had to keep an eye on the rising water level, and even had to get up in the middle of the night and run to higher floors.
As time went on, the hotel staff could barely take care of themselves, let alone provide them with meals.
Therefore, the most precious thing now is not a place to stay, but food.
Residents began to call for help, hoping that the government would send people to rescue them.
But when I looked outside, all I could see was the flood, and where were the government rescue workers?
I'm afraid that government workers, security guards and medical staff have also died?
When the flood came, society was in chaos and people were in a panic, fearing that the place to stay and the food they had managed to secure would be taken away.
Many people have been drowned by the flood while they are sleeping and will never wake up again.
The remaining survivors stepped over the corpses of those drowned in the flood with sad expressions, trying to climb as high as possible.
Since the players had made preparations early in the morning, they all moved to the highest rooms in the hotel in advance.
In exchange for food.
Because players generally have more food storage, those who can live on the top floor now are basically players who have space and food resources.
Zhen Jinli looked at the NPC residents struggling to survive in the flood. It couldn't be said that she felt very sad, but she felt complicated.
Even though she knew that the current rules of the game were just a game designed to consume energy, when faced with a disaster, she still couldn't help but want to save people.
However, with her current abilities, she can only save players, but not the extra resident NPCs.
If she saved them, she wouldn't be able to free up space to save more players.
After all, there are limited spaces on a pirate ship.
Even she herself didn't know how long she could hold on with those players.
She really wanted to witness what it would be like when Lan Ze used the rules to consume the game's energy to the maximum extent.
But she never imagined that the whole process would be so tragic.
Zhen Jinli began to tentatively ask the players around him: "Does anyone want to leave the game?"
She was really afraid that she would not be able to hold it in any longer, so she started to help the NPCs in the game.
After all, they look pretty much like people in real life.
Even if they are "people" in another space world, what is the difference between them and people in the real world?
The degree to which the game simulates real-life disasters is so realistic.
It was so real that she couldn't help but ask herself countless times whether she was just watching someone die without helping.
The other players in the game were a little puzzled by Zhen Jinli's question. They couldn't understand it. It was obviously just a flood at the moment. There was no reason for them to quit the game, right?
Everyone comes in to get the game rewards. Players have suffered so much, they will not be willing to quit until the last moment.
On the third night of the game, the rescue everyone was looking forward to still did not arrive.
The people in the hotel have spontaneously divided into two factions, players and resident NPCs.
Because some players have already revealed that they have supernatural powers.
The NPC residents were angry and annoyed, but they couldn't do anything about the players. They could only watch them occupy the top floor of the hotel and were powerless to do anything.
And they can only squeeze into the tenth to nineteenth floors of the game.
That's right, the flood has now reached the ninth floor of the hotel.
Darkness and despair hung over everyone's head. In order to survive for another day, many people had to steal the shelter and food from people on higher floors.
For some residents, it’s not right to lock their doors, nor is it right to not lock them.
If they don't lock the door, they are worried that other people who covet their place of stay will break in and steal their food and room.
Lock the door. If the flood rises to their floor, they will be drowned in the room.
The world in the hotel fell into a cruel state of disorder. Faced with the lives around them being taken away by floods or compatriots at any time, everyone gradually became numb.
Killing and disputes are inevitable for everyone. The behavior of people in the hotel now seems more like the reason why God sent down the world-destroying flood.
The third night of the game was destined to be a sleepless night.
Because if you close your eyes and take a short break, you may be spotted by others and they may come to steal your supplies.
The players basically all have special abilities, and since most of the food is stored in the space, they have become the top of the food chain in the hotel.
This is a game rule specially set by Lan Ze, which is more friendly to players.
On the morning of the fourth day of the game, the flood had already reached the fifteenth floor.
The remaining residents have begun to attack the players living on the top floors of the hotel without any regard for others.
At the rate the flood continues, it is only a matter of time before the entire hotel is submerged.
They could not avoid the fate of being drowned by the flood, and could only find ways to delay the final deadline for their drowning.
Everyone is hoping that they can survive to the end and become the survivor discovered by the rescue team.
But they don't know whether there is any rescue team in this world.
Therefore, they can only choose to save themselves.
Zhen Jinli looked at the NPC residents outside the stairs who were gradually unable to suppress their riots, and reluctantly gave the order to retreat.
"All players, get ready, we are retreating."
"When the flood reaches the eighteenth floor, we will lower the pirate ship down."
If you want the remaining players to quit the game willingly, you have to wait until a real crisis comes, and then they will give up and quit the game.
However, no player knows what kind of crisis will trigger their withdrawal from the game.
Before that, she could only try her best to protect more players.
Just as Zhen Jinli and other players were holding on and waiting for the flood level to rise, a strong fishy and bloody smell wafted through the air.
Someone shouted in fear: "It's a tsunami, the tsunami is coming!"
