Chapter 406 Collective
Meng Qingyin found the appearance of the cliff too strange. She checked the map and found that there was no cliff around her.
She immediately opened the chat area to check the situation.
Players are also discussing this.
Jiang Boluo: "[Image] That was terrifying! I suddenly encountered a cliff edge, and the tires of my car were only ten centimeters away from the edge! My heart almost stopped from being scared!"
In the picture, the flat road appears to have been suddenly cut off, revealing a bottomless abyss. The abyss is estimated to be over 100 meters wide, making it a heart-pounding sight, and vehicles simply cannot pass through it.
Rabbit is not Yueyue: "How can there be a cliff on the highway? The photo looks so scary, it feels like I might fall off at any moment."
Ugh~ (￣▽￣～)~: "[Image] I encountered this too. I watched helplessly as a car in front of me fell into the abyss! I was feeling sleepy, but it suddenly woke me up."
Yunnan Xi: "I haven't reached my target mileage for today yet, looks like I'll have to spend money to buy it today."
Chun Chun Chun Chun Luo: "Spending money is a small matter. The key is that you can't see anything unusual about these cliffs until you get close. If you're not careful, you'll be smashed to pieces!"
Please grant me the solitary courage to face the lament: "It seems I can no longer drive fast."
Diving is great: "What are these cliffs? How do we get through?"
YiXUAN: "Just use a teleportation card. It's even simpler if you're in a team. Just teleport to the other team members directly, and you don't even need to use a teleportation card."
The elderly man said, "I've already verified it. Changing locations doesn't work; it's impossible to pass through in the new location."
Qin Yu: "Oh, what should we do then? If we just stay where we are, isn't that just waiting to die?"
Xun Jiqing: "Call 007! Call 007!"
"..."
Perhaps sensing the players' anxiety, 007 sent a message visible to all players.
[Notification: Numerous cliffs have suddenly appeared on the highway. I am actively contacting the main system to inquire about the situation. Please wait.]
007's words eased the players' anxieties, especially those who had followed him all along. They knew 007 well, and since he had contacted the main system, there might be a solution soon.
But an afternoon passed, and 007 still hadn't appeared.
The players began to feel uneasy.
"What exactly happened? Has 007 not found out yet?"
"It seems 007 was unaware of this cliff collapse. It's a system, after all; how could it not know the situation?"
Ping Le: "I suddenly have a bad feeling. Are we going to be stuck here and waiting to die forever?"
Despite the speculation and anxiety among players, 007 has yet to appear.
As more and more players encountered the cliff, their anxiety reached its peak.
Even Meng Qingyin and the others encountered a cliff.
Due to the appearance of the cliff, many players lost interest in farming the tower, and Meng Qingyin's progress in acquiring demonic energy resources also slowed down.
It wasn't until the morning of the fourth day that 007 finally appeared.
[Notice: Please rest assured, the appearance of this cliff is a new system event. Due to unknown reasons, I received the event notification three days late.]
This event is very simple; players can cross the cliff by building bridges. Please explore freely.
Leaving behind these two messages, 007 disappeared again, but the players were relieved.
Oh, it was an event. It's good that there's a solution.
For all players who encountered the cliff, the quest panel was refreshed.
[Mission: Crossing the Cliff]
Method 1: Construct a bridge over the cliff. A bridge construction permit is required for bridge construction. Unauthorized bridges pose safety hazards and cannot be used. The builder will be held responsible for any consequences resulting from unauthorized use.
Option 2: Pay a bridge toll to pass through the cliff. The bridge toll is collected by the player who built the bridge.
Method 3: Modify vehicles to traverse cliffs. Vehicles can be modified to gain new functions, granting them the ability to fly and traverse cliffs.
The announcement of this mission has sparked a new round of heated discussions among players.
Nan Zhu Bailin: "The introduction to this event was so simple, it felt a bit perfunctory, why is that?"
Just a broken account aaa: "Exactly! Take method one for example, how can we build a bridge if we don't have the equipment and materials?"
Yi Meng woke up and realized she still had to go to school: "Not only does method one not work, but method two also seems to be impossible. Which player has the ability to build a bridge? Since no one can build a bridge, why is there a toll?"
Gu An.an: "So only method three is feasible? But what should we use to modify the vehicle? Do we have to figure everything out ourselves?"
Hehe: "I'm not saying this, but this system is so unreliable. How come we only received the notification for such an important event three days late? Also, the event description is too simple. We might as well have figured it out ourselves."
007 Happy Everyday: "Are you kidding me? How can you blame 007 for this? It's just in charge of the system, and it has to follow the main system's command lines. Why don't you blame the main system?"
"..."
Meng Qingyin had a feeling something was wrong, so she contacted 007: "007, you just said you received the notification three days late, what happened?"
007: [Our faction's systems are dwindling in number. I suspect the main system may have already shifted towards their side. Events like today's may become more frequent in the future.]
Meng Qingyin was shocked: "Did the main system say anything to you?"
007: [No, our faction has always had fewer systems. We have our own small group, and recently the number of systems in that group has been decreasing. If the main system really sides with them, I probably won't be able to stay in office for much longer.]
Meng Qingyin remained silent for a long time.
Has the factional infighting between systems gotten this intense?
If the main system is truly on the opposite side of all players, then do they still have a future?
007: [But don't worry, as long as I'm still in District 30, I will definitely fight for the chance to survive for all players.]
Mengmeng: "007, I am very grateful for everything you have done for us. I have a favor to ask."
007: [Tell me, as long as it doesn't break the rules, I'm willing to help you.]
Mengmeng: "Can you tell me the origin of the main system?"
007: [To be precise, the main system is not the consciousness of any one "adult," but rather the collective consciousness of all "adults," and every decision it executes is the combined will of all "adults."]
Meng Qingyin understood that the "adult" 007 was referring to was the god who created the road survival game.
Due to regulations, 007 cannot reveal their existence and has to refer to them as "adults".
