Chapter Fifty-Seven: Jarley's Answer
Jarley poked the burnt red stick of wood into the coyote's mouth, and the latter let out a series of screams, and Jarley frowned and threw the badly injured coyote aside.
After relieving the danger on his own side, Jia Lai turned his head to look at Zhang Heng again, and found that the other party had already ended the battle with one enemy and two enemies, and Jia Lai regretted that Zhang Heng's movements were too fast, and when he turned his head, he only saw two coyotes with scorched fur marks running into the darkness with their tails between their legs.
He couldn't see how the other party won this battle at all, which also frustrated Jia Lai's desire to know more about Zhang Heng.
At this time, the sound of the helicopter propeller turning was also heard in everyone's ears, and I have to admit that after that series of accidents, the space agency responded much faster to emergencies, and also improved the level of protection for astronauts.
In less than five minutes, the captain jumped out of the helicopter and said, "Are you all okay?" β
Zhang Heng and the others nodded, even Bruno, who was the most dangerous just now, was actually not injured, at most he was only a little frightened, and the most serious part was just being sprayed with saliva by a coyote, and the taste was a little bad.
The captain said, "I didn't expect to run into wolves here, there have been no wild wolves around here for a long time, but this does remind us, I will react to the above to see if I can add some more wolf repellent or something to the emergency backpack, but it's better not to expect too much, wait for their approval to say maybe you've already made two trips to the moon, so ...... Let me ask you again, do you still want to continue this training? β
Jia Lai and Bruno nodded without hesitation, although they had just experienced a frightening scene, the three of them had not yet decided the winner, and they didn't want the training to end there, so the captain turned his head to look at Zhang Heng again, and the latter said, "I respect the opinions of the team members." β
This answer was somewhat unexpected by Jallai and Bruno.
It stands to reason that Zhang Heng should choose to interrupt his training at this time, so that with his previous results, he can directly get the final place, and the reason why he has made such a decision now is only one possibility, that is, he also decided to use this opportunity to solve all threats in one fell swoop and avoid other situations during the quarantine period.
"Okay, then we'll see you at the finish line, and stay safe." Since the three of them were of the same opinion, the captain did not say anything more, got into the helicopter, and left the camping site.
After teaming up to repel the coyote attack, the atmosphere between the three seemed to be a little better, but the three of them knew very well that this was just a faΓ§ade.
When the number of clearance places is reduced to one, there is no room for compromise between them.
I don't know if it was because of an unexpected interruption, after which Jallai seemed to give up his actions, until the sun rose in the east and the temperature began to warm, nothing happened.
The three of them spent the night peacefully by the fire.
In the early morning, they took advantage of the campfire that had not yet been extinguished, and had another hot breakfast, which was their last meal in the desert, if nothing else.
Since there are only less than 30 kilometers left from the target location, it can be reached in seven hours.
And Jarley still didn't come to Bruno to discuss the next plan of action, so Bruno was completely dead, he knew that this meant that Jarley had never cared about the alliance with him, and he didn't think he was of much use.
However, Bruno wondered why Jarley was still not in a hurry until this point, and he even had the leisure to tidy up his emergency backpack again before setting off, knowing that it was not far from the finish line, and there was not much time left for them.
If you can't make a move in the last seven hours, you may never get a chance to do it again.
Bruno is now the most anxious of the three, but his anxiety is useless, losing the game props, Jia Lai is equivalent to abandoning him, he doesn't know how to solve the two competitors who are obviously stronger than him under the surveillance of NASA, so he can only wait passively.
As the day before, after breakfast, the three of them continued to go on the road in silence.
However, because this time they picked the time in the early morning, not long after the sun came out, the temperature on the desert was not too high at this time, and the physical exertion was not as intense as before, and at the same time, the three of them also unexpectedly received a prompt from the system, telling them to complete a "desert camping" achievement, and each of them received 2 points.
Up to now, the importance of points has long been self-evident, and the acquisition of points has always been the focus of the research of the guild, and the research results are varied, but no matter which scheme, it can only improve the efficiency of points acquisition to a certain extent, because of the uniqueness and non-repetition of the copy, theoretically the points acquisition scheme you summarize in one copy is unlikely to be directly used in other copies.
For example, Zhang Heng once obtained thirty food achievements in the copy of Tokyo Drift, and the copy has not been effective since then, no matter how many American signature foods he eats in the 60s, he can't get any more points, but in the previous transitional copy, he did get a "fast food & music" achievement through vinyl records with burgers and Mexican chicken rolls.
This combination made him very fascinated by himself.
However, there are indeed certain rules hidden under these randomness, for example, Zhang Heng has found that the probability of getting points after encountering danger and successfully passing the danger will be very high, but this rule is actually not very useful, because it is impossible for players to die crazy for points.
After all, if you don't even have people, there's no point in asking for points.
Bruno felt like this now, the joy of earning points was completely diluted by the anxiety about the future, he wiped the sweat from his face, it had been another three hours since the three of them had finished breakfast, the temperature of the desert had been increasing, and the uncomfortable feeling of heat had returned.
But what made Bruno even more anxious was that there was still no sign of Jarley to make a move, and Bruno didn't understand what Jarley was waiting for, and what made him even willing to give up the rare opportunity last night.
Is there anything better to get hands on than when the night vision is lowered?
Just as Bruno was puzzled, he felt that the oncoming hot wind seemed to have a tendency to gradually increase, so he raised his head and looked at the skyline in the distance.
The next moment, he finally got the answer he had been longing for.
The captain's voice came over the intercom, "Attention team, there is a sandstorm ahead, training is canceled, stay put, don't move, our car will pick you up soon." β
