Chapter 17 The Real World 1
Chapter Seventeen
She first opened the game panel and saw a large blue screen in front of her, with the survival record of the mold world written at the top: 328/10000.
Seeing this, Lin Xia suddenly realized that not everyone had gone to the survival game.
Then, in smaller print below: People under 16 years old or over 58 years old will not be selected for the game.
Her mother is 59 years old this year, and her father is 60 years old.
"System, won't either game select players of these ages?"
"Yes."
"Where are they?"
"Sleeping in the region where time stands still."
Where is the region where time stands still?
"Please explore on your own."
"How long will they remain asleep? Is there any danger?"
"There is no danger. Players are encouraged to explore the rest on their own."
Seeing that she couldn't get any more information, Lin Xia stopped asking. She was relieved that her parents wouldn't go into the dangerous game. But she would find out exactly where the time-stopping area was!
After pausing for a moment, she looked down.
Below are the chat channels: World Channel, Country Channel, and Regional Channel.
There's a note next to it: You need a megaphone to speak in the world channel. You need to use points to get megaphones, 5 points for one megaphone.
The national channel limits users to three posts per day. To post again, you need a megaphone, which costs 3 points.
There are no restrictions on regional channels.
Points? I did get 100 points when I came out of the mold world. I tried it and it worked. I just don't know how to get points in the real world.
The world channel was empty, but the national and regional channels were constantly scrolling. She didn't look closely at them, but instead looked down.
Below is the trading area.
You can open a shop in the trading area, but it requires 80 points. She just saw many people in the chat channel asking for food or shelter from the rain. She clicked on someone's avatar and found that people can trade with each other.
That was all. She looked at the chat channel, where everyone was discussing the people who had just been selected for the survival game.
"Are those people really dead?"
"I don't know if they're dead. Two people left our neighborhood just now, but only one came back. The other one didn't."
"He's definitely dead."
"Did we only go in for 5 minutes?"
"Yes, within 5 minutes, we watched the number of people drop rapidly."
What did you all experience? Was it fun inside?
"Hahaha, I've awakened my earth-based superpower! I'm Superman now!"
"What? Superpowers?"
"Which bastard stole my raft?! Give it back to me!"
"What? Aren't people only allowed to board the raft with the owner's permission?"
"I drew the [Fire Ability Awakening Card], why does it say that the conditions are not met and I cannot awaken it?"
"It really is a superpower. Give it to me, I'll try it."
......
The chat channel exploded; everyone was asking about superpowers.
Lin Xia scrolled through the messages and sent a private message to the person whose raft had been stolen: "What's the situation with your raft? What will happen without it?" Only then did she realize that the messages weren't typed out, but controlled by her mind, which was very convenient.
After waiting for a while and no one responded, Lin Xia flipped through her backups, found a picture of an inflatable boat, and sent it to him: "Answer the question, and this is for you."
A barrage of arrows: "Sister, you're my real sister! According to the neighbors, when I entered the dungeon, a girl from the building did something that made my raft disappear, while hers leveled up and ran away! I guess she might have gained some kind of skill or talent."
A barrage of arrows: "Without the raft provided by the system, you can replace it with any other vessel you find within 5 minutes. If you can't find one, you'll be eliminated. Sister, hurry up and give it to me, time is almost up!"
Without hesitation, Lin Xia immediately exchanged for an inflatable boat and traded it to him.
I'd like to add you as a friend if you're ready to be attacked by a barrage of arrows.
A barrage of arrows: "Dear sister, add me on WeChat, and I'll definitely repay you!"
Lin Xia nodded in agreement.
A barrage of arrows: "Sis, I've awakened a wood-type ability. Shall I tell you about what happened in the dungeon?"
Reading his account, Lin Xia wondered if they had gone to the same instance. If so, why were all the people joining the WeChat group on Weibo from H City...?
City B was considered relatively safe; City L, where the barrage of arrows occurred, was in complete chaos. He escaped by hiding in the deep mountains using his special abilities, but he nearly died from illness after drinking dirty water.
"Are there any items we can exchange?"
"Hey sis, you're in the game too?"
"Yes, I'm in H City, near the safe zone in B City," Lin Xia asked, voicing her question.
"Sis, I know this. Players in each city can only search for information about players in their own city. I only found out about this after I left L City and met other players, but by then the internet was gone."
"You remember the first cities that were bombed, right? Most of us players are scattered in those cities that were the first to mutate. Of course, some are lucky and may be in relatively safe places."
I see, but I don't know what the point is of not allowing contact... is it just to increase the difficulty?
"Sis, have you awakened your superpower? I have a spatial superpower awakening card. It belongs to someone I teamed up with at the beginning. He was unlucky; he got hit by someone as soon as he arrived, and then the fungus came, and he died within two days. I found this card on him, but unfortunately, I don't have the necessary conditions to use it. Sis, do you want to give it a try?"
Lin Xia was surprised. What a great item! She rummaged through her own belongings and sent him the [Space Ring]. She wondered if it was a bit too little, since it was only one cubic meter of space.
Unexpectedly, a trade request came in immediately after the barrage of arrows. This time it was a mutual trade. She looked at it, put the ring she had exchanged into the trade area, clicked confirm, and only after seeing that the other party's trade area was also locked did she click trade.
Upon receiving the [Spatial Ability Awakening Card], she tried it out, but couldn't use it. There was too little information available, and she didn't know the exact conditions. She decided to back it up first.
[Backup successful: Backup space Awakening Card, requires 1000 Survival Points]
I put the card away in a corner of the space.
"Thank you, dear sister! With this space, things will be so much easier when entering dungeons!" Wan Jian Qi Fa was extremely excited, putting the ring on his hand and admiring it.
Lin Xia, who had initially wondered if the items were not of equal value, then realized that there were too few items at the moment. Compared to the ability cards that could not be awakened, the ring was of course more useful, but she was not at a loss.
She looked through the chat area for a while, hoping to find some information about life on the ship, but it was clear that no one knew, and the game didn't seem to have started yet.
Watching the water level rise so quickly, Lin Xia wondered if this survival game at sea was going to wait until everything was submerged before it started.
Many people online are speculating about this, so we'll just have to wait and see.
Finding no other useful information, Lin Xia looked at the yacht in front of her.
