Chapter 278 [Chance Encounter] (2-in-1 Chapter)
Ally?
Han Bi smiled bitterly, tightened his trench coat, and raised the collar of his trench coat.
He set a 24-hour countdown on the hiking watch he wore on his wrist.
Han Bi held a dog-legged knife in his hand, looked at the sky, identified the position of the sun, confirmed the direction, and walked towards the south. He wore professional hard-toed anti-sand boots on his feet, which made a creaking sound when he stepped on the gravel floor.
A lonely figure, dragging a long, long shadow on the wasteland.
After nearly an hour of walking south, the sun completely disappeared below the horizon.
Darkness began to envelop the wasteland.
Han Bi thought about it in his heart. I walked nearly 10 kilometers in this hour. The body is already a little hot, and the breath is also a little uneven.
Han Bi sighed and looked at the system's prompts.
Familiarize yourself with the terrain as much as possible within 24 hours?
Are you kidding.
With such a large wasteland, I don't know how big the dungeon area really is. I only walked less than ten kilometers in an hour, and it was only a straight line. If you want to familiarize yourself with the terrain within 24 hours...... Unless there is a means of transportation.
Han Bi remembered with some envy the team he saw in the dungeon he participated alone before, and the other party had storage equipment and could carry a lot of things with him - even vehicles.
It's a pity that I could have a sand car now. Even a bicycle is much better than walking.
It was already dark, and Han Bi felt the temperature dropping. This kind of wasteland is still very cold after entering the night, and the wind on the wasteland has no obstruction, and it can be raging as much as you want. Glancing at the thermometer on the hiking table. Eleven degrees Celsius. It is estimated that it will continue to cool down for a while.
His eyes were fixed on a red rock peak in the distance ahead, and after thinking about it, Han Bi quickened his pace and walked towards that placeβhe could rest there tonight.
That Hongyan Peak looked like it was in sight, but the so-called Wangshan ran away from the dead horse, and when Han Bi really walked to the bottom of Hongyan Peak. It took another forty minutes.
His breath was already a little uneven because of the trotting all the way.
But fortunately, this terrain made Han Bi very satisfied.
Because of the perennial weathering, the surface of Hongyan Peak appeared layer upon layer like a knife, like layers of umbrellas stacked together, and Han Bi found a recessed part of the mountain, although there was only a space of three or five meters, but it was enough for himself.
Han Bi took out a small shovel with a short handle from his backpack. Shoveled up the ground, and after a few minutes, a pit was dug.
He walked around, found some dried and withered thorns, dismantled a large lump, picked it up, and threw it into the pit.
Sprinkled some alcohol with him, Han Bi lit the fire.
At night, the campfire brings him a touch of warmth. It also brings a sense of security.
Han Bi's heart was very stable. At least the system has made it clear. The first 24-hour period is the preparation phase, where participants are forbidden to fight each other. You are safe.
Moreover, the fire can also be effective in deterring wild beasts in the wilderness.
Han Bi was sure that there must be wild animals here, because when he walked all the way just now, he had seen the bones of beasts left in the wilderness.
He had scrutinized the bones, which had gnawed on them! There must have been some dangerous carnivorous wild animal, perhaps wolves. Maybe something else.
The warm feeling of the flame made the pair of eyebrows on Han Bi's face as thick as a brush gradually stretch.
He carefully took out a flask containing strong whiskey, took a sip, and felt the heat slip down his throat and into his stomach. Han Bi exhaled pleasantly.
Tonight...... Just stay here.
He didn't bring a tent, in fact, Han Bi still had a piece of equipment. This is the greatest confidence of his trip.
It's just that this equipment is not inexpensive to use, and it is calculated according to time.
There were also two military cans in his backpack, and the text on them was in Russian -- these things were purchased by Han Bi through the Internet, through the Internet, and found a store specializing in military enthusiast items when he was making preparations.
Russian military canned food, beef.
A can was opened with a dogleg knife, and a layer of white flower oil floated on it. Han Bi endured the nausea and took a bite and couldn't help frowning.
Very salty!
However, considering the physical strength he had spent before, Han Bi still endured the nausea and ate half of the can, and carefully sealed the rest back.
Looking up at the sky, the stars were shining. At night in this great wilderness, there is no light pollution in the city, no atmosphere polluted by industry, and the stars are so clear and bright.
It's a pity that Han Bi only watched it for two minutes before he lost his mood.
It's a bit of a bad feeling to be alone.
In fact...... There were a few times when Han Bi's heart was shaken. Maybe it was a wrong choice to leave the team in the first place?
However, after each wavering, Han Bi quickly forced himself to throw away this thought.
If it weren't for that encounter in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, maybe he would really become a companion with Chen Xiaolian, and everyone kept helping each other to make copies one by one until ...... The day he died.
But in the copy of the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, that incident ruined everything.
Han Bi felt guilty in his heart!
After Chen Xiaolian made such a selfless decision and took the initiative to stay and break off for everyone.
Han Bi suddenly felt a complicated taste in his heart.
Have low self esteem!
If it was said that when they were in the underground labyrinth of the desert island before, everyone still helped each other, then in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, Han Bi always felt that he seemed to be relying on Chen Xiaolian to survive in the end.
The plan to enter the dungeon was made by Chen Xiaolian. In the dungeon, when there was a crisis, it was Chen Xiaolian who contributed his wisdom to analyze the situation, and at the last moment, Chen Xiaolian stepped forward.
And he didn't even do his only request: just optimistic about a little girl who is less than ten years old. But he actually let her run away.
Han Bi couldn't tolerate that he would continue to stay in Chen Xiaolian's team any longer.
It's not just that dereliction of duty.
Even more so because his self-esteem can't stand it.
He didn't feel like Chen Xiaolian's companion, not like his partner, but slowly became a ...... Underling.
In his bones, this thick-eyed boy is actually a very proud person. He is a model airplane enthusiast and participates in various competitions and always comes out on top. These hobbies have brought him great honors, as well as the accumulation of sufficient self-esteem.
He can be friends with Chen Xiaolian.
However, he does not want to become someone else's subordinate, subordinate, follower!
Even if this person is Chen Xiaolian, no!
Moreover, Chen Xiaolian already has other friends around him.
Han Bi knew very well that the guy named Luo Di had a closer relationship with Chen Xiaolian. There is also the girl named Qiaoqiao, and Xia Xiaolei......
To be honest, how much friendship do you have with Chen Xiaolian? It's just a copy of the underground labyrinth of a desert island together.
Han Bi can't stand it!
I can't stand the fact that I need to get shelter from a friend.
Turn into a parasite.
"Maybe their team should be doing well right now. After all, there are many of them, and they can help each other. β
Han Bi had a sour taste in his heart, and couldn't help but take another sip of wine.
But this is the last bite of the night. If you get drunk in the dungeon, it's like looking for your own death!
Han Bi reminded himself in his heart.
Before entering this punishment dungeon, Han Bi had already made careful plans, including the preparation of various equipment. The body is in the best condition. And...... Set yourself a standard of living that is almost strict.
Glancing at the time, two hours and forty minutes had passed since the 24 hours of the first stage.
He thought about it. Get up, put everything in your backpack, then pick up a shovel to shovel dirt, extinguish the fire, carefully pat the ground flat, and put away the shovel.
There are no campfires. The wind at night is particularly biting.
Han Bi shrunk his neck, came to the foot of Hongyan Peak, looked up twice, he took a deep breath, and put on his gloves. Start climbing.
He had found a place to learn the art of rock climbing for a few days - only scratching the surface, of course.
But for Han Bi, it's enough.
He doesn't need to climb too high, just a little height.
Han Bi climbed up the Red Rock Peak like a gecko, and Han Bi stopped, he looked down at the distance from the ground, and then looked at the rock wall.
This piece is fairly flat.
He freed up his hand and pulled a piece of equipment out of the system.
It was like an animal skin, about the size of a tablecloth.
Han Bi cautiously used his free hand to stick the animal skin on the rock wall.
That's when something magical happened.
This animal skin immediately fused with the rock wall, leaving only a corner, which was still in Han Bi's hand.
He climbed up with his hands and feet, and lifted the horn of the animal skin in his hand......
After setting it off, in front of Han Bi, it was a small space!
It's like a ...... Tent!
It was as if the mountain had been carved out of a cave by some magical force, and Han Bi immediately drilled into it.
The space inside is not large, only about four or five square meters, but it is surrounded by not hard and cold rock walls, but soft animal skins.
From the inside, it looks like this cave is actually an animal skin tent.
Han Bi lay inside, carefully laying out the door of the tent, that is, the corner of the mountain wall, and tying it tightly with ropes.
After doing all this, Han Bicai breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew he was safe now.
It was three meters above the ground, and even if any wild beast came nearby at night, it would not be able to jump off the rock wall.
The name of this equipment in the system is: Chameleon Tent.
A piece of animal skin, which can be carved out of a tent-sized space in any place. At the same time, it blends in with the surrounding environment and is not easy to be discovered.
On top of that, this chameleon tent also has some defenses.
Even if there is an enemy blocking the door outside, if you want to rush in, this tent can withstand it for more than ten minutes.
It is an A-class piece of equipment.
It was Han Bi who got it in a previous copy.
It belonged to another Awakened One, but unfortunately that Awakened One was killed. This thing fell into Han Bi's hands by mistake.
Han Bi was ecstatic after becoming familiar with the role of this thing.
For Han Bi, who is not outstanding. A piece of equipment that can be hidden and has a certain amount of defense is the most suitable.
It's just that the only thing that makes Han Bi a little dissatisfied with this thing is the conditions for using it.
Every time this thing is used, it comes at a price.
After using this preparation, make a tent space to hide. Every hour. will consume 1 point from the user!
For Han Bi, who has a very limited point reserve, every time he uses this thing, he will be very, very distressed!
So far, Han Bi has less than 300 points.
What made him feel a little helpless was that these three hundred points were still the copy of the underground labyrinth on the desert island and the copy of the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, which had been accumulated these two times.
And those two times, it was thanks to Chen Xiaolian that the copy was completed.
As for later. After Han Bi left, he participated in a copy alone, but failed. Although he survived by luck, he also spent a lot of points in that dungeon.
Today, there are less than three hundred points left.
According to Han Bi's calculations, he needs to sleep for at least 6 hours a day, so as to ensure that he has enough physical strength and spirit to deal with the dangers of the day.
Then use this chameleon tent in the dungeon. It costs 6 points every day.
If the quest is a little longer, it will take five or six days to stay in the quest. It's more than thirty points......
That's almost a tenth of your reserve points!
Han Bi was still a little distressed.
Thinking of this, Han Bi hurriedly reminded himself: Hurry up and go to bed! Now the safe time to sleep is all exchanged for points!
Closing his eyes, Han Bi began to count the sheep in his heart.
Unfortunately, tonight, it seems that the won is destined to not be able to sleep peacefully.
Just as he had counted the one hundred and twenty sheep......
Suddenly, he heard a voice!
The sound of rattling and banging. It made Han Bisheng feel a little familiar.
This sound is like the sound of anti-sand boots stepping on the sand!
Han Bi immediately sat up, alertly pricking up his ears to listen outside.
At first, Han Bi prayed in his heart that it was the rumor, but soon, he determined that it was not the rumor!
The sound is rhythmic. And...... Sounds like more than one pair of feet!
He immediately extinguished the lights in the tent, and when it was dark, he crawled to the mouth of the tent, carefully opened a thin slit, and looked out.
In the night, Han Bi was condescending, and his sight was not bad.
He saw several figures.
......
There are two figures under the Red Rock Peak.
One of them was tall and large, like a half-cut tower!
The other was slightly slender and slender, and from the figure, it seemed to be a woman.
Sure enough, the woman took off the hat from her head, and her long hair was blown up by the wind.
She was wrapped in a thick leather trench coat, with a wide belt around her waist and two guns stuck in it.
"Just rest here. β
The woman's voice came, and it should have been very young.
The burly guy nodded and walked to the bottom of the Red Rock Peak.
Han Bi held his breath and stared tightly.
The burly guy walked around as if to examine something closely.
The woman took out a flask and took a sip, then said quickly, "The Titan brothers are to the north, and they say they found a river, but the riverbed is dry. There seem to be traces of human activity. We'll be able to check it out early tomorrow morning. β
The burly guy nodded, "Okay." Actually, I think ...... We may be too cautious, but we could have divided it into four groups. In the first stage, since the system prompts you to be familiar with the terrain, the terrain will definitely be of great help to the subsequent missions. We're only divided into two groups now, and if we were divided into four groups, we would be twice as efficient at surveying the terrain as we are now. Anyway...... The system says that participants are not allowed to fight privately for 24 hours, and it is now in safe mode. β
"No, it's better to be cautious. The girl shook her head: "I always feel that things are not so simple. Punishment dungeons can't make us so comfortable. There must be a ghost in this. β
Han Bi lay on the Hongyan Peak, listening carefully to the conversation below, and couldn't help but feel a little envious in his heart...... Obviously, this is a team. The opponent has a large number of people, and can divide the troops to survey the terrain.
And ...... for yourself If you want to survey the terrain, you can only rely on your own legs.
The two men below surveyed around the Red Rock Peak...... Han Bi felt frustrated in his heart.
The other party also seems to have taken a fancy to this place and wants to camp.
It's such a coincidence that I'm here.
Han Bi was both happy and helpless in his heart.
Fortunately, I came first and hid first.
Helplessly, I actually collided with other participants, and it was okay if it was an individual participant. But I met a team.
If it's a normal dungeon, maybe it's fine, but it's a punishment dungeon!
The most basic attempt is that the penalty dungeons are mostly competitive!
Although the system prompt gives an alliance permission.
But...... The Awakened who is struggling in the dungeon, who is not wary of strangers?
Rushing down to form an alliance?
Han Bike is not such an idiot. What if the other party has bad intentions?
Even if you can't kill yourself now, catch yourself, and wait until tomorrow 24 hours have passed......
Han Bi didn't think that he would definitely be able to defeat the other party in terms of strength.
In any case, if your strength is weak, then there are always many concerns.
Han Bi secretly prayed in his heart - don't let the other party find out about his existence.
But at this time. Han Bi heard a voice that made him frustrated.
"Huh?!Commander, there's something here!"
The burly guy shouted, and the girl immediately ran over.
The burly guy held a shovel in his hand and shoveled a piece of the ground with great force: "Look!"
The girl glanced at it, and her voice was a little low: "Ashes of the campfire?
The burly man immediately lay down, stretched out his hand and touched it: "The ashes are still a little warm, not cold!
Han Bi, who was lying on the Red Rock Peak, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat!
He regretted it infinitely in his heart! If he had just buried the fire in the burial pit, why didn't he bury it more carefully......
Come to think of it. Han Bi quietly pulled out a knife.
Although the dogleg knife was by his side, Han Bi didn't take it. That's just a regular knife.
He figured out his weaponry from the system.
Snow Blade!
This was given to him by Chen Xiaolian at the beginning. Class B weapons.
Pinching the snow blade, Han Bi lay at the mouth of the tent, his body arched, and the muscles of his whole body tensed.
After the two men below examined the ashes, the girl stepped aside and looked at the ground......
Han Bi became nervous.
He climbed over the rock face. Although I didn't leave any traces of myself, I ...... Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case.
But this time, Han Bi's prayers seemed to have worked.
The girl and the burly man examined it, but found nothing else.
"There are no feet on the ground. The burly man said in a deep voice.
"The wind is so strong. The gravel was blown up, and the footsteps could still be seen. The girl's voice seemed to be very relaxed, and she smiled faintly, and said, "This place is good, since we can take a fancy to it, why can't others?" It's just strange that why did someone come here to make a fire, and it should be in the posture of camping, but why did they leave again?"
"Whatever he does, let's rest ours first. The burly man snorted: "We are here, this place is ours." β
The two soon started a fire.
What made Han Bi envious was that the other party seemed to have storage equipment, and they didn't carry any baggage with them, but they took out all kinds of things.
Even firewood is carried with you!
It's just a luxury!
Han Bi was faintly worried in his heart: the awakened person who could have storage equipment was definitely much more senior than himself. Storage equipment can be expensive.
When I saw the girl making a fire...... He actually picked up a wooden staff and shot a fireball casually......
Magic?!
Han Bi's eyes widened!
This girl is actually a magician?!
He was secretly glad that he had decided to hide.
The strength of the other party is obviously much stronger than his own. If you rush down...... In the face of such a powerful guy, his life and death are equivalent to being in the hands of the other party's good and evil thoughts.
The two men sat down by the campfire, the light of the fire shining on the girl's face. She was facing Hongyan Peak, so from Han Bi's angle, she could just see the girl's side face.
Against the firelight, the curve of the girl's side face still looks very graceful, and her eyes are shining like stars.
There is no doubt that this is an extremely beautiful girl.
"Commander, eat something. β
The burly man handed over a piece of heated food wrapped in tin foil.
The girl smiled lightly and took it, but glanced at the burly man: "Monster, you and the Titan brothers, are you still a little dissatisfied with me in your hearts?"
......
[Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommended ticket~~
Don't bother me, in fact, if I don't ask for votes, the number of votes really won't go up much.
Only when you ask for votes, the number of votes will rise.
It turns out that in fact, most readers have no voting habits.
However, the number of votes is really very important to the author, and it is related to the performance of the book and the popularity of the book.
So, there is no choice but to canvass regularly. γ
