Chapter 180 Ice Bird in the Snowstorm



Yu Qian'an has always wanted to lend his weapons, ammunition and robots to others, but because there are too many people buying them, he has no time to take care of those who want to borrow them.

The essence of this game is survival. Surviving is a skill. There is no point in helping the weak. The weak will be eliminated sooner or later. Unlimited help to the weak will only kill yourself.

Yu Qian'an discovered that there was something wrong with his math. He originally thought that after two rounds of games, there should still be 100 million or 200 million people left in China, but in the end, there were only 40 million left.

After looking at the population rankings of various countries, Yu Qian'an realized that he had made a mistake in calculation and that staying alive would be a huge challenge.

Yu Qian'an took the banknotes and calculated carefully. If he lost every round, then the 40 million in the first round would become 20 million, 10 million in the second round, 5 million in the third round, 5 million in the fourth round, 2.5 million in the fifth round, 125 in the sixth round, 625,000 in the seventh round, 310,000 in the eighth round, 150,000 in the ninth round, and 70,000 in the tenth round.

From 40 million to 70,000, the chance of survival is less than 0.2%.

Even if it's impossible to lose every round, 99.8% of the Earth's population will still be eliminated by the time it reaches its destination. There are still over 100 million people alive now, so by the time it reaches its destination, there may only be a few hundred thousand left.

In the first few rounds, you might encounter foreign players, but as you go further, the chances of your own team fighting each other increase. How can you help? Helping others is only hurting yourself.

The drone went forward to conduct reconnaissance and found that the drawbridge in front had been lowered. After the supplies were packed up, the train continued its journey.

After crossing the suspension bridge, the wind and snow ahead suddenly intensified. When Yu Qian'an was wondering, Zhao Yun's voice rang out from the intercom: "Boss, come over and take a look!"

Yu Qian'an quickly climbed onto the roof from the connection between the carriages. Because the ten kilometers in the third carriage was too far, Yu Qian'an could only choose to walk outside faster. Then a voice came from the intercom: "Boss, you'd better not walk on the roof!"

Yu Qian'an: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? What happened to the roof?"

Zhao Yun: "There's a monster outside the carriage, riding on the wind and snow. I'm going to pick you up, so be careful!"

Yu Qian'an: "No, I'm going back to the car. I'll check the control panel."

Yu Qian'an called up the radar information from the control panel and found that there seemed to be flocks of birds flying in the wind and snow on the radar.

Yu Qian'an quickly told them in the group chat: "Be careful outside, there may be flying monsters, stop the car and defend yourself!"

Yu Qian'an's car was parked at the front, and the gunners and machine gunners from various artillery positions were in position, ready to fight.

There were also four or five types of air defense equipment in Yang Jiarui's car behind, and people were assigned to operate them.

Now that there are more people, everyone's defensive weapons are operated by someone. Wang Yang has two anti-aircraft machine guns, and the remaining Le Xing and Wu Liangliang arranged for the T600 to go on the roof for defense.

Yu Qian'an: "Note: There are still 5 kilometers to the train area. The population is estimated to be several hundred, but the species and level are still uncertain."

Jia Xu's voice came from the intercom: "Boss, do you think the scope of this blizzard is a circle?"

Yu Qian'an checked the radar and found that the area covered by the blizzard was indeed a perfect circle. "It's a perfect circle, then what?"

Jia Xu: "Could this blizzard be man-made, or controlled by some machine? How about firing a missile? Should Zilong go? Or perhaps Zhou Xingxing take the Strike Force and see for himself?"

Yu Qian'an: "Let's deal with the first wave of enemies first. There are still two kilometers of enemies arriving. If the enemy is not strong, Zilong will go to the center of the storm to take a look. If there is any danger, call for support in time."

Zhao Yun: "Okay, boss!"

There was no chance. The first batch of monsters arrived. Yu Qian'an looked out the window. They looked like crystal birds. The blue combat robot opened fire first. The crystal birds shattered at the touch. They were made entirely of ice. However, the sight of hundreds of them densely packed towards the train was still terrifying. If it was a white carriage, it would probably have been a huge hole in it.

Yu Qian'an: "This bird isn't a big threat. Zilong, go quickly and come back soon!"

Yu Qian'an then called out to the others: "Be careful of the ice bird attacks, the second batch is coming!"

Wang Yang: "Is this endless mode, like a sandstorm? We can just walk through it and everything will be fine?"

Yu Qian'an: "This time it should be different. This blizzard is in a circular area. Be careful. I've sent Zhao Yun to check. If it's not man-made, we'll speed away."

Yang Jiarui: "It seems that this game doesn't want ordinary people to survive. Even the white carriages can't withstand an ice bird attack like this. In this extremely cold weather, if the carriages leak air, people will definitely freeze to death. Especially those who built so many white carriages to accommodate more people. I really don't know whether they are helping those people or harming others."

Le Xing: "If these travelers die on the road and cannot be resurrected, they will be harming others. If they can be resurrected as travelers again, they will be saved."

Yang Jiarui: "You haven't understood the purpose of this game yet. Let me tell you briefly, after this round of the game, the number of people who can survive will probably not exceed 200,000, or even less. I mean the entire planet.

Even if everyone can bring 10,000 people like Yu Qian'an, the number of people who can be rescued and taken away in the end will not exceed 200 million. Moreover, most people cannot be as strong as Yu Qian'an.

The end of humanity has arrived. Only the strong can survive. This round is humanity's self-elimination. Only the strong can survive."

Yu Qian'an: "Don't be discouraged for now. Pay attention to defense. If any carriage can't hold up, remember to repair it in time. This ice bird can cause damage to the green carriages. Fortunately, it only damages a few hundred at a time."

Wang Yang: "I think Yang Jiarui's estimate is too high. You only calculated the situation where the winner of each round can survive. If the enemies are evenly matched, the winner will inevitably suffer losses. I estimate that the number of people who will eventually reach the station will be less than 100,000.

Plus, how many of our passengers would be left after ten rounds of fighting? Would there still be passengers to board the train at the next stop? Perhaps the number of Earthlings left alive would be less than 100,000!

Wu Liangliang: "So what's our goal? Just keep going and getting eliminated? What's the point?"

Wang Yang: "I think the purpose of these first few rounds of the game should be to clean up the server, just like this round, the Earthlings are forced to eliminate themselves, leaving server space for the survivors. As for the dead, they will be cleared out like garbage data."

Yang Jiarui: "I think this game is not harming us, but saving us. As long as we can survive, there is still hope for humanity!"

Yu Qian'an: "The third wave has arrived, and the fourth wave is on the way. Be careful..."

There are discussions about games every day. Yu Qian'an has heard many hypotheses. When it comes to imagination, people on Earth are never short of it, but what the next round will be and what the purpose of the game is are still a mystery.
