Chapter 1200: The Fire Desert, Survival Begins!

It's a familiar old business.

Seeing these lines of manifested text rules, Su Mo suddenly felt like he was back in the beginning of the wasteland, flipping through the core of the shelter.

The only difference is that the desert now is much more difficult than the original wasteland.

In less than three minutes, Su Mo raised his hand to wipe the sweat, and felt that his whole body was completely wet, and his clothes were tightly attached to the surface of his body.

This desert is still early in the morning, and the surface temperature is at least around 40 degrees!

Phew.

Flipping to the third page of the manual, there are fewer text prompts this time.

It is a line of extra tasks that can be performed during the main competition.

[Terrain: Earth Fire Desert (Difficulty: Three Stars)]

】

Three daily tasks and six challenge tasks.

In addition, Su Mo also noticed his current points, which were exactly 500 points given.

"This task is not easy to complete"

Looking at the fourth page, no text appeared. I don't know if it will be triggered by the terrain later.

Su Mo's heart sank slightly. He stuffed the manual into his trouser pocket and took off his coat to cover his head.

As far as the eye could see, there was no obstruction at all, and there were bare sand dunes everywhere.

There were no plants.

There were no animals or humans.

Standing here was like being on an isolated island in the deep sea, letting the waves beat on it.

So empty and lonely, so lonely.

"We have to find a way to gather first, and then find a water source as soon as possible." After a while of looking around, Su Mo made a decision in his heart.

I don't know if I can use the survival point to directly generate a well in this desert.

But even if it can be generated, it is not very practical because we have to go to the next terrain.

Take advantage of the morning when you are full and have the most physical strength.

Su Mo no longer hesitated, and took steps along the position of the light spot on the manual, and walked forward heavily.

Dong, Dong.

With every step, you can feel the rolling heat from the sand, which hurts the soles of your feet.

The hot wind raged back and forth in the desert, rolling up pieces of sand fog. Every breath was like inhaling waves of heat, making people feel suffocated.

After walking with his head covered for nearly an hour, Su Mo had to stop to rest.

He opened the manual and found that the distance was finally much closer, only 11km left.

"Not only am I getting closer, but the light spot on the manual is also getting closer to me!"

With every breath, the light flickered, and the faint gray dots on the map would tremble slightly.

Finally, it was good news that was exciting!

Su Mo rested for about five minutes, and then hurriedly forced himself to cheer up and move forward.

In just a moment, he began to feel dry mouth and tongue, and urgently needed to replenish water.

If he delayed for another half a day and still couldn't find a water source, he would probably face the risk of dehydration.

"Oh no, the Lord's position is too bad. There is not even a shade around!"

"Not only here, but everywhere else. It's basically bare desert."

"Where's the oasis? How can we get out of this desert with nothing?"

"I didn't see any. There's not even an oasis here."

"It's a pity that each of us can only move the camera within ten kilometers of the initial position, otherwise we can see where the others are."

"It's useless to see it. We can't tell the Lord."

While watching the battle floating over the desert, the chat channel of the territory refreshed rapidly.

According to the initial entry position, the spectators can only look down and observe the surrounding ten kilometers.

Although the positions are different, the situations in various places are roughly the same.

They are all endless deserts, and there is no shade to rest.

Of course, the reactions of the contestants are not the same.

Some people choose to rest on the spot after entering, which shows that they want to save their energy and wait for the temperature to drop at night before taking action.

Some people choose the position of their teammates like Su Mo, and plan to meet up first and talk about it later.

Some people accidentally bumped into aliens. Although they couldn't fight due to the rules of the game, the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Generally speaking, the first earth and fire desert terrain.

It is an extremely difficult test for both humans and aliens.

Whoever can find water and resting places the fastest will have an advantage in the next game!

Eleven kilometers.

Running in both directions.

Nearly two hours later, Su Mo finally saw the first figure in the endless desert.

It turned out to be Qi Jie, the most stable and reliable of the three.

Because of his excellent performance in the elimination round, Qi Jie should have received the reward of one of the three choices.

The two of them could reunite so quickly only after they selected their teammates' positions.

"Lord, it's hot, drink some water."

As soon as they reunited, Qi Jie cut to the chase and took out a bottle of mineral water from his arms without hesitation.

It was a 500ml Nongfu Spring!

The bottle cap had not been unscrewed yet, and the water line was still at the mouth of the bottle.

"Water? Where did it come from?" Su Mo's throat had been smoking from the heat all the way, so he was not polite at this time. He took it and unscrewed it and drank half of the bottle.

The originally cold mineral water was slightly hot at the entrance due to the weather.

But as it went down his throat, it brought a sense of comfort from foot to head.

"I bought it from a random merchant on the road."

Qi Jie watched Su Mo finish drinking it, and after taking it, he quickly drank the rest.

He wanted to unscrew it and drink a few sips many times on the way.

But when he thought that the person he was about to reunite with might be the unreliable guy Lao Dao, the idea arose and he forced himself to dispel it.

Now, after meeting Su Mo, all worries naturally disappeared after having a backbone.

"Did you meet a merchant? How much is a bottle of water?" Su Mo's eyes lit up.

Qi Jie is really reliable. Not only did he bring water to meet up, but he also met a merchant along the way.

With a goal, it is much better than the two of them continuing to walk around in the desert!

"A bottle of water, fifty points, I didn't dare to buy more."

"The merchant is on the way I came, about four kilometers away from here."

Qi Jie said in a deep voice, and soon explained the situation of meeting the merchant clearly.

Similar to the NPC with random attributes on the map.

The merchant is not unique, but will stay for a day after refreshing and sell various items.

Among them, the only food is bread, and the only fresh water is mineral water.

Both are fifty points.

It should not be possible to rely on daily tasks to maintain the food to go on!

"In addition, there are also position tickets for sale inside, 150 points each."

Qi Jie shook his head.

If it was not Su Mo who just met up, he might turn around and buy a ticket to try.

But now, the two of them stayed where they were and asked Lao Dao and Male Gun to buy the voucher and come over. Perhaps this was the right choice.

"Let's go, let's stay over there with the merchant."

Su Mo stood up and exhaled a breath of hot air. The two of them took heavy steps again and walked northwest.

With a goal, the four kilometers this time was not long.

In less than an hour, they saw a "merchant" standing in a depression in the sand dunes, like a wooden man.

In addition, there were three players surrounding the merchant.

"Hey, there was no one when I arrived." Qi Jie reminded in surprise, quickening his pace and walking ahead.

I haven't tried it, and I don't know the extent of the game's restrictions on competition between players.

But in such a deserted place, some vigilance is still necessary.

On the other side, the three people who were buying things also saw the two people coming.

Seeing Su Mo with sharp eyes, the three of them got excited at the same time.

"Look, it's Su Shen, Su Shen is here!"

"Fuck, it's true, we are so lucky."

"Hurry, hurry over."

Not caring about buying things, the three of them pulled their legs apart and hurried over.

Su Mo was also observing from the side.

The one walking in front should be from the same territory, and they seem to have a close relationship.

One is tall, the other is short, both are male, not very old, about thirty years old.

The tall one looks a little dehydrated, his face is flushed, probably because of his body shape.

The short one is in good spirits, but judging from his messy steps, he must have been affected by the high temperature.

The other person is actually a woman?

I seem to have seen him there?

Su Mo frowned and thought for a while, and a blurry face suddenly appeared in his mind.

Xi Ruyue.

The 77th on the list of the top 100 wasteland characters in the future ruins, from Mengyue territory.

As the saying goes, women are as good as men.

At the beginning of the sixth year of the wasteland, Xi Ruyue stepped forward when she led 300 people to guard the rear.

Not only did she lead people to create a terrifying record of 300 people breaking 8,000, but the number of casualties did not exceed double digits.

Since this battle, she became famous, and the subsequent record was finally ranked 77th.

But now, Su Mo can't see too much of the taste of the female general in Xi Ruyue.

The high and drooping ponytail, coupled with a tight sportswear.

The curved and bright eyebrows and the clear lines of the baby face make her look more like a high school sports student.

"Su Shen, it's great to see you!"

It was the tall man who spoke, and he looked very excited.

Qi Jie sighed with his hand on his forehead. Sure enough, it was another Su fan.

"Hello." Su Mo nodded slightly, and he was not unfamiliar with this kind of familiarity.

"Are you here to buy something?" The short man interrupted, "We are both from the Blazing Fire Territory. My name is Guan Mao, you can just call me Maomao."

"My name is Zhang Jun, you can just call me Ajun." The tall man added.

"Xi Ruyue, Mengyue Territory, I am also your fan!"

Seeing this, the baby-faced man behind him also hurriedly squeezed in to introduce himself.

As for Su Fan, it is really difficult to open up topics and form cliques in the fiercely competitive main competition without this identity.

After all, strangers who don't know each other just praise Su Shen, then they will become familiar with each other.

Now that they have met the real master, they naturally cannot slow down.

After a general conversation, the information they provided was complementary, and they basically understood each other's identities, as well as the desert terrain and the many rules and restrictions of the main competition.

"We can go together, that's fine, the game doesn't restrict it." Su Mo said directly.

"But if you want to make any request to me after going together, you have to pay the points for the main competition. You have to think about this. If you find a water source, you have to pay me points even if you want to drink water."

This time, the game did not leave too obvious loopholes in the rules of the main competition.

For example, if two people help each other, you give me fifty, and I give you fifty again, and so on.

Once such behavior is detected, it will be forced to withdraw directly.

"We both have no problem, don't worry, this time we brothers are just participating in the main competition. It's not certain whether we can get out of this desert. It's a great blessing to be able to follow you!" Mao Mao and A Jun looked at each other and quickly stated their positions.

Although you have to pay for help, it's much better than having no place to pay.

And this desert is really too wide. Without someone to lead the action rhythm, it may not be possible to get out in 30 days.

"I have no problem, I promise not to drag you down." Xi Ruyue also said.

Although it sounds a little unconfident.

But she also knew very well that being with Su Mo at this time was definitely the best choice.

"Okay, you guys take a rest first, I'll go see the merchant."

Give Qi Jie a look to continue to find out, the latter understood immediately and then started the conversation.

Su Mo smiled and walked quickly to the merchant.

Seeing someone coming, the wooden-like 'merchant' seemed to suddenly be infused with wisdom, and his rigid eyes became lively.

"Do you want to shop, customer?"

The voice sounded like a middle-aged man in his forties, a little dull.

"What are you selling?"

"Please wait."

Take it out from your arms and hand it out a thin booklet.

Su Mo took it, turned to the first page, and words began to appear in front of him.

[Food: 500g black bread (50 points) Inventory: 10]

[Fresh water: 500ml Nongfu Spring mineral water (50 points); Inventory: 6]

[Tools: Shovel (50 points); Inventory: 5]

[Survival items: Single windproof tent (100 points); Inventory: 1]

[Special items: Friend-seeking voucher (150 points); Inventory: 1]

[Refresh times: 0]

[Use 50 points to refresh the goods, and there will be a small probability of refreshing more goods. ]

[The more refresh times, the higher the probability of refreshing high-quality goods. ]

Five categories, each category has only one thing, and there is a purchase quantity limit.

Only six bottles of mineral water are left.

Except for Qi Jie, the three people should have bought one bottle.

If a few more people come, after buying out the merchant's inventory, they can only spend points to refresh.

"Each person has only 500, and it's difficult to spend money everywhere!"

One cent can make a hero fall.

Even if all the daily tasks are completed, the total is only 70 points.

This does not include the two-liter water task, which is difficult to complete in the early stage. If you only complete the last two, you will only have 50 points.

Buying food means a loaf of bread.

Buying water means a bottle of water.

If you fail to find a source of supplies or get out of the desert before the points are used up, you will be eliminated.

"But you still have to spend it. Let's get some start-up funds first."

Su Mo was not annoyed because he was not lucky enough to invest in an oasis or near a water source.

Looking through the purchase page, he finally decided:

"Give me two bottles of water and a single windproof tent."

"A total of 200 points, do you want to buy it?"

"Yes!"

As the voice fell, a light flashed.

Three things suddenly appeared on the empty ground, which were two bottles of mineral water and a small tent.

In addition.

"Qi Jie, come and buy a coupon to see where they are?"

"Okay."

When the points are used up, they will be eliminated. The most reasonable way is of course for both of them to keep at a similar level.

Qi Jie nodded and hurried over to place an order.

As the light flashed, new glowing points appeared on the manual map.

At a glance, both of them looked a little ugly.

"Seven hundred and seventy-five kilometers, is this desert so big?"
