Chapter 33: Wasteland: Limited Time Survival (3)
In the empty building, a ball of light gradually faded out in mid-air.
"All hands are here, now announce the rules. ”
Finally about to start drawing the key points, Ye Qingmian leaned against the wall casually, quietly waiting for the rules to be announced. The other candidates, however, were a little nervous. After all, for candidates who are not in the first war zone, there has always been no concept of death, and losing the reincarnation game is at most a return to the normal life of the past.
But this time, because of Ye Qingmian's existence, the whole game has an extra layer of blood. Everybody's all watching the rules, because it's about how many winners there are and how many people are likely to be eliminated. Beneath the calm faces of the candidates lies a nervous heartbeat, which becomes more and more intense as the sound of the orb of light appears.
"This is the planet suitable for human survival found in the Devil Galaxy after human civilization progressed to the era of the universe - Phantom Blue. The owner of Phantom Blue has a similar ratio of water and land to Earth, due to the fact that there is a large Earth-like ice field near the Difficulty Pole. The Antarctic ice sheet takes on a dreamy blue color during the day, which is why the phantom blue is named. ”
"For about 370 years, humans have settled on Phantom Blue Star, and due to the gradual shift of the magnetic poles, a small part of the Antarctic ice sheet has melted. And this event, which would not have affected the survival of mankind, has caused a devastating impact. ”
"Melting snow and ice have revealed the dusty land of Antarctica, and a blue flying insect that has been covered in the depths is beginning to revive. This flying insect carries a deadly virus, which is resistant to high temperatures and extreme cold, can be transmitted through air and water, and can survive independently from the host for more than 300 days. ”
"This virus will spread with people's breathing, eating and drinking, and can change the existing genetic sequence of human beings, causing hereditary uncontrollable mutations, and the mortality rate of infected people is as high as 99.97%. This highly extinct and extremely contagious virus was named initially. ”
"After investing a lot of energy and money, it was initially contained, but its targeted drugs quickly led to the initial evolution in a short period of time, making up for its own shortcomings. After a large number of experiments and research, the major laboratories have come to a terrifying conclusion, the virus will initially mutate and evolve in a short period of time according to the change of external conditions, and the current level of human science and technology cannot completely eliminate the original. ”
Therefore, in order to prevent the initial spread of Phantom Blue to other civilized planets, the Star Yuan Federation decided to purge all infected people on the Phantom Blue Planet after voting. When the Phantom Blue Planet lost human activity, it initially began to spread from human cities to forests and oceans, causing the death and mutation of a large number of organisms. ”
After that, after 150 years of turmoil, the Phantom Blue's ecosystem was re-stabilized. But the virus initially became almost one with Phantom Blue. The game of reincarnation will protect you from the initial attacks during the day, but at night, you will need to find a shelter left behind in the city to avoid the initial infection. ”
"There are 30 participants in this reincarnation game, and there are 30 remaining shelters in the city. Unfortunately, no one can take refuge in the same shelter for two nights in a row. There are 30 shelters in 30 different areas of the city, and you can find out more about the division of the areas in your communication device, which is currently activated and can be used for phone calls between participants, city map display, personal health status and personal belongings. ”
Ye Qingmian took out the round electronic device the size of a palm in his backpack. Sure enough, a map of the city's topography was already shown, and it was being divided into 30 areas by the red lines that were gradually revealed. As the rules suggest, there will be a shelter in each area.
At the same time, each candidate had 30 genetic antidotes in their backpacks. Once the initial infection is caused by accident, the genetic mutation process can be suppressed by injecting a genetic antidote. Each serving of the Gene Antidote lasts for 1 day. ”
"Because the remaining sweeping system has detected signs of renewed human activity, the destruction procedure should have been initiated. That is, at 8 a.m. every day, a random covering devastating strike is carried out on 1 area, ensuring that no more creatures will be present. ”
"However, this procedure has been broken by the rules of reincarnation, and the candidates will be transported here after dawn at 6 o'clock to vote for the executor. The executor has the right to change the random strike to a designated area. If there are two candidates with the highest number of votes at the same time, the destruction program will randomly destroy 2 regions due to invalid voting. ”
"This round lasts for a total of 30 days, that is, the Zone Destruction procedure can be executed up to 29 times, and the existence of up to 1 Zone can be retained. At the end of the game, the genetic antidote to the uninfected candidates can be exchanged for 10 reincarnation badges each. The genetic antidote to the infected can be exchanged for 1 reincarnation badge for each copy. Obtaining less than 20 Reincarnation Badges in this round will be judged as a failure. ”
In addition, in addition to the electronic map and genetic antidote, each candidate's backpack also has a combat suit that can greatly enhance physical strength and protection. In order to prevent the candidates from being attacked by genetically mutated creatures, each candidate is given a unique weapon. ”
"Among the 30 weapons, there are 3 large universe technology weapons, 7 near-earth civilization technology weapons, and 10 ancient civilization cold weapons. All candidates may use weapons to defend and attack mutated organisms, but uninfected candidates may not attack other candidates. ”
As the introduction of the ball of light deepened, the middle-aged man in the dark blue suit pointed helplessly to the big white dog in his hand, and asked a little wistfully, "I'm sorry to interrupt, but there is a question I need to get a confirmed reply, is this dog my weapon?"
"Yes. The light ball's answer was simple and clear, but it made Ye Qingmian laugh again.
"And what about this black dog, is it a mutant creature?" the middle-aged man asked again, already frightened by the lonely walk in the abandoned city, not to mention the backpack and white dog that suddenly appeared. What made the middle-aged man feel even more embarrassed was that not long after entering here, a big black dog came out of nowhere, rushed to his side with red eyes, and did the work of reproducing offspring with no one next to his 'weapon'.
"Not a mutant creature. The light ball's answer made Ye Qingmian breathe a little relieved, it seems that the light ball only focuses on the question itself and will not make a malleable explanation.
"Is this dog someone else's 'weapon' too?" the middle-aged man tried to find out the owner of the black dog, but looked around and it seemed that no one wanted to take responsibility for it.
"It's not a 'weapon'. The light ball's answer made Ye Qingmian start laughing again. I don't know why, this reincarnation game always seems to poke its own laughter in some strange places.
There were 30 people in this room, but White Dot was not a contestant and did not receive a backpack or weapon. Then there is no doubt that the magical 30th person is the uncle brought by Ye Qingmian.
At a glance, there didn't seem to be any extra backpacks on the ground, and it seemed that the backpack that belonged to his uncle might have been left somewhere by him. Ye Qingmian thought it was very funny, maybe when the rules of reincarnation were established, he didn't expect that at a certain point in time in the future, a dog would go through various loopholes and obtain the identity of a candidate by mistake.
"There are still 5 hours left until the dark of the first day, and hopefully everyone will find shelter. Each shelter requires a password to open the door, and the initial password for each shelter is currently 000000, and you can change the password yourself after entering. ”
"Three additional remarks. First, the resurrection rights of this game are locked, that is, it cannot be resurrected by paying for reincarnation badges. Second, once eliminated in the current round of the game, all the items you carry will disappear. Third, every time the Genetic Antidote is injected, there is a 0.03% chance that you will directly gain the Present Bible ability at the Great Ability level or above. After the game ends, the uninfected can exchange the genetic antidote for reincarnation badges, and in the end, the genetic antidote for the uninfected will have a 0.1% chance of directly gaining absolute ability level Bible power for each injection. ”
As the supplementary note ended, the ball of light vanished. Ye Qingmian pinched his earlobe, feeling that the rules of this reincarnation game were relaxed, if everyone could unite and distribute the genetic antidote, there would be a possibility that all members would clear the customs in the end. And what's even more dangerous is that as long as the remaining 28 people unite, then Ye Qingmian is very likely to become the only candidate to be eliminated and obliterated.
However, it is obviously unrealistic to want people from different world systems and different cultural backgrounds to unite. Suspicion, greed, and ambition can make any large-scale alliance uncertain. In Ye Qingmian's conjecture, the combination of small groups is inevitable, but it is almost impossible to have a situation where all members are targeting themselves.
Finally, he glanced at his uncle who was making out with the white dog, Ye Qingmian didn't communicate with anyone and left here directly.
Not long after, the white dot sneakily appeared in Ye Qingmian, who had been far away from the central voting hall. "Hey, are you going to finish?"
"Do you think so?"
"I saw a few people come out and get together again, I don't know what to say, could it be aimed at you?"
"It doesn't matter, the scales of victory have been tilting in my favor since I entered the stadium. At least I think I have a big advantage at the moment, and of course, I need your help. Ye Qingmian patted Bai Diandian's shoulder and said in a friendly manner, while handing over the genetic antidote in his backpack to Bai Diandian, "From now on, this is yours." ”
"Huh?" Bai Diandian took Ye Qingmian's genetic antidote in a daze, completely ignoring the other party's purpose.
"I don't care about the reincarnation badge, but I can't die in the reincarnation game. If those people honestly protect themselves, if they dare to target me, then kill them all. Ye Qingmian said confidently, the light in his eyes that did not hesitate to kill means was dangerous and firm.
"You're going to be beaten in a circle, and you're bragging. No matter how we say it, we are all our own people, you and I are still pretending to be like this, is it necessary to do that?" Bai Diandian's face stiffened, and he said that he was not very optimistic about Ye Qingmian.
"Then we'll see, in fact, the key to winning this time is not me, but the other two important people. ”
"Who?"
"You, and uncle. ”
"What?!" Bai Diandian was stunned for a moment, and then became furious, "Ye Qingmian, I misjudged you, you just used me, I didn't expect you to be so despicable that you even count a dog." ”
", can you not focus so far on your focus?!Don't you ask me about my plan?" Ye Qingmian wondered if the idea of counting the white dots in the plan was wrong. However, if he doesn't take advantage of such a bug, it will really increase the difficulty of the game out of thin air, but this person simply can't communicate normally, which will make Momi wonder and start caring about the rights of dogs.
"Insidious guys. Bai Diandian said.
"You're sick, didn't you eat dog meat hot pot a few days ago?"
"Eh, yes, you mean, we took advantage of Su Mancheng's unpreparedness to eat his dog here?" Bai Diandian's eyes lit up, and he looked at Ye Qingmian approvingly.
Ye Qingmian was silent for a while, and suddenly felt a sympathy in his heart. When looking at the white dots, the warm words of caring for mentally handicapped children in the public service announcement kept appearing in my heart, making Ye Qingmian's face flush with a fatherly smile, "What we need to do is to make you become me." Let me, be a dog. Let the dog, non-existent. Then, reap the victory. ”
"Understood. Bai nodded with a big laugh.
"Do you understand?" Ye Qingmian was startled, could it be that this ruffian has extraordinary ability to understand key issues? He obviously didn't say it very clearly, right? He had already understood his own strategic thinking in this game?
"Of course, I'm you, you're the dog, and the dog is gone, because we ate it. ”
