Chapter 224 Blinding Virus, A Frenzied Escape
Song Zhuo: "Yes! That guy named Ren Jie did it on purpose. Now, there are probably nearly a hundred blind players."
Jin Baiwan: "Oh my god, Ren Jie just contacted me. I've been too busy to reply yet. He's been chattering away to me in private for five minutes straight. Am I going blind?"
Song Zhuo: "Probably not. As long as you don't respond, or respond less, you won't fall for it!"
Ge Xiaochuan: "Song Zhuo, you're amazing! How did you know that?"
Song Zhuo: "I've been watching the chat channel and summarizing the information."
Jin Baiwan: "Awesome, absolutely awesome!"
Song Zhuo: "Viruses are incredibly diverse and easy to catch; everyone must be careful!"
Jian Lin: "But I don't see many people dead?"
Song Zhuo: "That's because it's not the right time yet. Nobody knows how their illness will develop, and a few people have antiviral drugs."
Jin Baiwan: "Yes, yes, some people opened the boxes and found antidotes that can save their lives."
Ge Xiaochuan: "However, when people get the medicine, they can only take it randomly. Some of it works, and some of it doesn't."
Song Zhuo: "Yes, because each color of medicine can only treat one type of virus. In addition, there are blue medicine and yellow medicine, which should also only treat one type of virus. Moreover, there are virus levels. Low-level antidotes cannot treat high-level viruses. In short, it's very troublesome. I've been monitoring many chat channels, but I can't come up with any more information."
Ji Xinghan exclaimed in admiration, "It's quite impressive that you've summarized so much!"
Half of the players were sick, but thankfully, the few who were still alive and well were fine.
Because of the rampant virus, antidotes are extremely scarce, and no one knows how to use them, so players are afraid to go out.
Ever since Ren Jie was said to be able to cause blindness, everyone has been very careful when chatting privately.
I heard that Ren Jie infected more than 100 people, but we don't even know who those 100 people are. What if someone he chatted with in private happens to have contracted the blinding disease?
Ji Xinghan thought of Qi Xiangxiang and asked her in a private message, "How are you?"
Qi Xiangxiang replied: "I'm a little better, but I still can't go out. Chu Feifei and I are doing fine, thank you for your concern."
Suddenly, Ren Jie sent her a private voice message: "Hi Ji Xinghan, I have a tattered map here, do you want it?"
Ji Xinghan: ? ? ?
Ren Jie has his eye on her?
Of course, she couldn't reply.
But how would Ren Jie know about the tattered map? Did he have it too?
Ji Xinghan asked Qi Xiangxiang, "Who else knows about the tattered map?"
Qi Xiangxiang: "Huh? I didn't tell anyone, not even Chu Feifei. By the way, there are only three copies of this map. If you collect one more, you can shorten the time to open the treasure by half."
Ji Xinghan couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
Qi Xiangxiang obtained the map in a stone cave by killing a black bear. The black bear was exceptionally fierce, and she used several cards to kill it.
When she took the wooden box from the treasure chest, she heard a hint.
The instructions state that there are three fragments of the tattered map. Collecting two fragments will halve the time required to unlock the treasure, while collecting all three fragments will allow you to unlock the treasure immediately.
Ji Xinghan asked the question clearly and explicitly.
When I looked back, I realized that Ren Jie had sent several private messages.
Ren Jie: "A tattered map can lead to an incredible treasure!"
Ren Jie: "This treasure is a matter of life and death for the players. With it, fewer players will die, and we can get more points more easily!"
Ren Jie: "I've accumulated enough points, and I'll be able to return to the real world soon!"
Ji Xinghan almost replied.
She held back, focusing only on Ren Jie's messages.
A few minutes later, Ren Jie sent another private message: "That treasure is crucial; it might even end the viral catastrophe ahead of schedule!"
Ji Xinghan: !!!
She couldn't hold back any longer!
This Ren Jie is definitely not simple, but unfortunately, she dared not reply or ask any further questions.
Ji Xinghan was momentarily excited, but quickly calmed down. Perhaps Ren Jie was exaggerating on purpose? His only goal was to get her to talk to him. Maybe if she couldn't resist saying a word, she'd go blind tomorrow!
With this thought, Ji Xinghan instantly calmed down.
It's more reliable to go out and find the box!
Before going out, she went to the glass greenhouse to harvest some produce.
Everything planted in the magical land was ready for harvest. Corn, peanuts, carrots, and sweet potatoes were all harvested, and she then planted wheat and several other kinds.
After planting, she opened her personal panel and used the talent sharing feature.
What if he's a master box finder?
[Beep, Talent Sharing Activated!]
[You shared the skill "Location and Person Search" with ID*** and received double or triple the effect, resulting in a mutation!]
[Location-Based Person Search: You can use location-based person search 1-3 times per day to locate the position of any player within this server!]
[You have 3-9 chances today to locate any player or NPC in this server. You can also instantly teleport to within three kilometers of the located player!]
Location tracking for someone?
Ji Xinghan's eyes lit up. This must be the positioning skill of some players!
So, do players have 1-3 opportunities to locate other players each day?
Now, thanks to her shared skill upgrade, she can not only gain multiple location skills, but also teleport to the player's vicinity.
Oh, right, it also includes NPCs; she can go to any NPC she wants!
Good skill.
Now I can go find Ren Jie!
She can't chat with Ren Jie via private messages, but she should be able to chat face-to-face, right?
It's impossible for this virus to have so many transmission routes!
Let's go take a look!
Ji Xinghan was in high spirits; he was determined to make good use of this skill today.
She first asked Song Zhuo, "Song Zhuo, is there a problem chatting with Ren Jie in the chat channel?"
Song Zhuo: "I don't think so. I saw someone calling Ren Jie in the chat channel. He's fine right now."
Even so, Ji Xinghan decided to play it safe.
She tidied up, making sure to bring all her notebooks and pens, and stuffed Wangzai and Dingdang into her backpack before using the "location tracking" function.
Please state or enter the name or ID of the player you are looking for.
"Ren Jie!"
Ren Jie's current coordinates are xxx, xxx.
[Should I teleport to his vicinity?]
"yes!"
With a "whoosh," Ji Xinghan's body swayed...
Buckle up!
Then, wait, why is it still shaking?
"Pooh!"
She was thrown off, and upon closer inspection, she realized it was an alpaca. The alpaca had snow-white fur and stared at Ji Xinghan with its large, watery yellow eyes. Then…
"Pah!" A mouthful of saliva flew out, and it was green!
Ji Xinghan dodged away.
Wangzai poked his head out from behind and shouted, "Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!"
The alpaca was taken aback, then gave chase.
Ji Xinghan's heart skipped a beat: "Wangzai, stop barking, run!"
It wasn't that she didn't want to kill, but the surroundings were too eerie!
The snow had just melted, but everything around was lush and green. The low-lying grass was covered with tall forests, all of them a dark green, giving off an eerie feeling.
And with that white, ferocious alpaca, she's afraid it might be poisoned!
This place feels incredibly contaminated!
Ji Xinghan took off running, with the alpaca chasing after him frantically.
The dense forest stretched endlessly, and although the sun was shining brightly, it was shrouded in gloom. Ji Xinghan used his swiftness as the wind to run for a few minutes, and then quickly climbed up a large tree.
The alpaca stood under the tree, furious and helpless, spitting incessantly.
Wangzai couldn't take it anymore: "Why are you such a coward? Achoo!"
Ji Xinghan was startled: "You've been infected with a virus?"
Wangzai: "No, someone stuffed foxtail grass up my nostril... Huh?"
