Chapter 185 Desert Survival Day 28 (3) There should be more than one...
It took less than 20 seconds for Yu Miaomiao to go from landing to hiding her name. It couldn't be such a coincidence that the man turned on the holographic screen.
She had just arrived here and encountered such a situation. If she had a fight with that person, would it be a waste of time? Would she still be able to make it to the prank cave in time?
Why don’t we leave now?
If I return now, not only will the adventure card be wasted, but the stack of guides in my backpack will also be invalid, and the map I worked so hard to make will be useless.
However, none of them had the new maze forest adventure card, so the treasure chest could not be opened, and the bound anti-fall airbag was lost.
But she chose not to leave. Perhaps through today's adventure, she could find out what this blood cherry was up to.
Standing at the entrance of the expedition area, the first trouble nearby, which the man had already solved, was the "twisted worm" that would suddenly jump out from the ground.
The twisted worm was named by Hua Bie casually. He named it very casually, but the paper recorded in detail the shape of the twisted worm and various methods to deal with it, but they are no longer useful now.
If that person has been here for more than 12 hours, he should be some distance away from the exit. Yu Miaomiao, who is in the same adventure site, needs to consider two situations.
If Blood Cherry saw Miaomiao's name, would she ambush her?
Opening the strategy map, she wrote down the places where people might be hiding.
If I didn’t see it, would I run into it head-on?
She also marked the locations of the blind spots in her vision.
She also made a plan on how to deal with the situation after the encounter.
Yu Miaomiao was very grateful that Hua Bie gave her such a detailed strategy map, which was not only helpful for exploration, but also allowed her to ambush that person.
There are three places on the map where you can take shortcuts.
Does Blood Cherry know about these three places?
Yu Miaomiao glanced at the other person's name and searched for his information in the rankings.
Ranked 24th on the expedition guide rankings, progress 37%, 214 monsters killed, 78 stamina, 155 agility, 120 strength, and 122 wisdom.
His strength value is ranked in the top ten, almost twice as high as mine, which means that a head-on confrontation will definitely not work.
The advantage of a high wisdom value is that her shooting and archery accuracy are higher, so she can ambush in a place on the map in advance.
I remember that when I asked 'One' if he had any other accomplices, 'One' did not answer. But when I mentioned the name 'Blood Cherry', although he did not respond, his expression obviously changed.
Yu Miaomiao thought for a moment and installed a poison needle on the gun. She didn't want to shoot the other person directly because there was no evidence that the other person had really harmed her, it was just very suspicious, so she planned to use force first and then courtesy.
On both sides are clusters of Haloxylon ammodendron trees as tall as people. Their branches and leaves, which should have been green, are now gray-brown and light yellow-brown, and the grass and trees on the ground are almost withered.
The dried blood on the ground seemed to belong not only to the twisted worm, but also to the person involved. The blood was dripping onto the branch road.
If Blood Cherry is injured and still exploring here, isn't that a bit too much?
No, she seemed to have a preconceived idea, thinking that Blood Cherry was just here for adventure.
What if this expedition site was originally owned by someone else, and Blood Cherry applied to join and killed the original person?
After all, he had received an application from Blood Cherry in the expedition area that he owned alone.
Or maybe, in this adventure area, besides Blood Cherry and Yu Miaomiao, there are other people, or several people, who, like her, also have the ability to "make the system interface visible only to themselves."
They are a gang, hiding their identities, hiding here, waiting for people to come in, and then killing and robbing.
If that was the case, she would have to be more careful.
It didn't matter that the branch treasure chest was gone, she could still open other treasure chests on the road, which saved the time of going to the branch road. It would take a lot of time just to take these detours in the maze forest. She just had to achieve the purpose of this trip - to open the final treasure chest.
On the way, she sent an inquiry to the three-person group to see if Lulu and Api had any latest information about Chen Qiang, Wang Bingliang, and Xue Yingtao.
There are so many forks in the road in the maze that if you are not careful you will end up in a dead end. So at every intersection, Hua Bie marked some information points for her to identify.
For example, she just passed a branch road that should have been covered with spider webs, but only some spider silk hanging on the side of the tree was left, indicating that someone must have been on that road.
Along the way, she didn't waste any time on the side roads except for the treasure chests that would refresh for her on the main road.
The entire maze forest is very large and consists of 7 mazes.
After she came out of the first maze, she saw a wide horizontal passage with towering vine walls on both sides, the same as those seen in the Dark Oasis.
At this moment, you can see that the sky outside the house is yellow and turbid, and the outside world seems to be experiencing a sandstorm.
There are two paths in front of you now. One leads directly to the next maze, while the other is more winding and has more treasure chests.
The climate in the expedition area was pleasant, but she still wore a full-body sun-protective suit to prevent herself from being detected by a heat detector. She happened to be holding a detector in her hand, but no one had been detected yet.
Most of the mazes on the side with more treasure chests have treasure chest guarding monsters, so the ones in front have probably been killed. If you want to catch up with those two people, you can only go to the maze that leads directly to the other side.
Because there were people ahead of him who had paved the way, all the monsters were killed, so Yu Miaomiao's journey was very smooth. However, the exploration progress was a little slow. So far, it was only 1%.
The closer she got to that person, the more dangerous it might be, so she put on the invisible clothes she had looted from "One".
An invisibility cloak is a bit like a protective suit that can cover a person from head to toe.
After putting it on and pressing the invisible button, she disappeared into thin air. Except for the crunching sound of broken branches under her feet, it was as if she was not there in this adventure area.
The clothes were very tight, squeezing her so hard that she could hardly breathe, but it did not affect her vision. It was just that it was a little difficult to move her joints.
She was not tall to begin with, so it was hard to imagine how small the original owner must have been to wear such tight and small clothes.
There were two possible ambush points directly in the maze. She walked very slowly, her shield and soft armor tightly wrapped by the invisibility cloak, but she could not hold anything in her hands.
To hide completely, she couldn't hold a weapon or shield, and she felt uneasy when she had nothing in her hands.
As she passed the first low bush, she was ready to use her return card at any time.
There was something wrong with the branch, so she quickly dodged.
No one.
However, this bush was covered with dead branches. When she looked closely, she saw that they looked like they were pressed out by humans.
It seems that someone had indeed hidden here before.
Why were they lying in ambush here? Did her guess really come true, that Blood Cherry came in to rob and kill people?
There were some blackened bloodstains and some...broken bones on the ground, and it was unclear whether they belonged to humans or monsters.
“Ding ding.”
A system sound startled her.
She stopped near a dense bush, hid the system interface and opened the message.
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, I found out for you that this Blood Cherry has a special three-person team dedicated to stealing money. One of them is 'One', but you've already killed him. So, in the exploration area you're in now, there's more than just Blood Cherry. There should be another one, but he's hiding his name. His name is 'Muddy Waters Fishing'."
What a good person who fishes in troubled waters. She had seen this name before. He was the one who left a message under her post two days ago, asking her about the situation of the expedition. Sure enough, the name suited him.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Api, you are really amazing. You can find such important information. Thank you."
"Is Pipi here? I heard they don't have any stealth-related items, but they have a lot of weapons, so be careful."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: OK."
Yu Miaomiao guessed that since Api was able to find out this information, he probably learned it from Ziren.
Alas, Api was unwilling to accept Ziren’s things, but helped her to find out information. Yu Miaomiao felt mixed emotions.
She continued walking forward.
Before walking out of the direct maze, she discovered a man-made trap on the ground.
Traps created by the system itself cannot be placed in the expedition area unless someone specially modifies them using items in the expedition area.
Where summer grass flowers should have been, there were only three or four.
I remembered what Huabie had written on the map: "You seem to be very interested in collecting supplies. This is a good place to pick them. I forgot how many flowers I counted, but it's a lot anyway."
Originally, he only marked a small flower icon, and the words seemed to have been added later. He probably added this sentence because he recalled that she could always collect a lot of plant materials.
If that's the case...this map doesn't seem to be for his personal review, but more like a record specifically for her.
Why did Blood Cherry and the other one pick almost all the flowers here, leaving only these three, and they were the three at the highest point?
Yu Miaomiao took a look under the vegetation. Within three feet, there was a strange dead branch. Under the thick branches and leaves covered with fresh soil, there seemed to be a small pit. It was probably the temporary trap they had dug.
It seems that they have been prepared, whether it is ambushing those who arrive first or guarding against those who come later.
Just three summer grass flowers, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want them.
Continuing forward, she passed by five similar traps, some of which were pits filled with sharpened spikes, and some of which were connected to an explosive mine.
The sharpened thorns of the branches may hurt people, and those who accidentally fall into them may still be saved, but if they are connected to landmines, it means that they don’t want to give later people a chance to survive, and they may even look back to check the trap.
What a vicious mind.
