Chapter 513: Games without monsters tend to be more exciting
After thinking for a while, Shen Ming came back to his senses and continued to look down.
The girl players below are still wading forward with difficulty in the blizzard.
She is obviously not the kind of delicate girl, not only quick to react, but also extremely cautious, always vigilantly observing her surroundings on the way, once she feels something blowing, she will immediately be like a puff of water, and her whole body and along with the clothes and equipment on her body, all turned into water vapor and dissolved in this world of ice and snow.
I have to say that her ability is very useful in the current environment, even if she occasionally meets someone, others can't find her, and after looking for it, she can only leave in a huff.
But Shen Ming also found that her ability to atomize into water mist was not very high, and she could only maintain the atomization for almost 5 minutes, and when the time came, she had to reappear in human form. According to his estimates, it should be the appearance of the fourth-order [Yu] level.
And,Although this ability is very good at hiding in this environment.,Escape.,And the ability to protect yourself is very outstanding.,But it shouldn't be good at fighting.,If you encounter a monster in that secret base.,BOSS or the like.,It may not work.。
After watching it for a while, Shen Ming didn't see any new tricks, it was all this female player hiding all the way, approaching the snowy mountain in the distance, it didn't make much sense, and it looked like she had to walk for a while, so Shen Ming summoned the holographic panel, clicked [Exit Live Room], and exited the viewing.
He didn't quit because he was going to race right away, but because he wanted to be sure of something.
That is, whether these new maps used in the knockout round are all maps with special environments, just like the 001 field he saw.
So, he clicked into the live broadcast room of "Single Knockout 002".
It's still the "holographic panoramic ghost mode", as soon as he enters this live broadcast room, Shen Ming visually feels the obvious heat, which is a huge heat rise, distorting the air.
As far as the eye can see, there is red and yellow magma rolling, dotted with black or cyan rocks, often swallowed by the magma and flowing with the magma.
Looking around again, Shen Ming found that he was in a huge crater, which seemed to be about to erupt, and the mouth full of magma was boiling.
The players who participated in the competition were fighting each other in a circle of stone buildings built on the inner wall of the crater, and from time to time someone fell from the stone wall and fell into the magma, and was swallowed up and disappeared without even screaming.
After watching it for less than a minute, he didn't even look at the task of this picture, Shen Ming quit directly, and then entered the live broadcast room of "Single Knockout 003".
This time, the map is a dark and brilliant cosmic starry sky, specifically, an asteroid belt scattered with countless large and small debris, and players wearing spacesuits, carrying individual jet backpacks, and holding beam rifles are flying around the asteroids.
I watched it for a while, and then quit again.
004 is a vast ocean, 005 is a battlefield where cannonballs fly, and 006 is a dense fog that you can't see your fingers...... There is no need to look any further, Shen Ming can confirm that the maps of this knockout round are indeed all special maps in special environments, and players not only have to fight against opponents, but also against the environment.
After confirming his guess, Shen Ming looked at the time again.
Well, it's been more than 20 minutes, and there are still more than 7 minutes before the start of the first time period is about to pass.
Shen Ming thought about it, hesitated for a long time, and didn't make up his mind.
Forget it, it's only the first day of the competition, although the number of participants is limited, but it's definitely not so fast, let's see the situation again!
In the end, he gave up directly participating in the competition and decided to watch the live broadcast for a while to collect more information.
It is also the first 001 live broadcast room.
As soon as I entered the live broadcast room, a prompt popped up:
"Do you want to follow the previously selected target and follow along?"
Oh, yes, I did choose a girl player before, and I did follow automatically......
Without hesitation, Shen Ming directly clicked [Yes].
In an instant, the wind was galloping, and the surrounding situation changed rapidly, and then it stopped suddenly.
There was still a blizzard next to him, but the female player couldn't be seen.
Is it dead? Wrong! I think it turned into fog and melted into the snow and hid!
I saw that not far in front of Shen Ming's floating, about 10 meters away, there was a sound of fighting.
Through the thick snow curtain, the shadows of several people can be seen.
And, several of them are leaning towards this side!
You know, this girl player can't move after turning into mist, so you can only watch them move.
Finally, when they got closer, Shen Ming also saw their appearance clearly, there were five people, all of them were men, three were wearing orange and black edge cold suits, and two were wearing white and black spots cold suits, and they were fighting together in a mess.
Wait a minute! How can there be two types of winter clothing? I remember that the winter suits sent down from the ship were all orange and black edges, and they were the same for both men and women! Where did these two white, black-spotted guys come from? Could it be a monster in a secret base in Cold Mountain?
But how can these monsters use superpowers?
I saw that the two guys in white and black spotted cold-proof suits in front of me had two red balls of light floating in one hand, throwing them out from time to time to smash people, and then automatically retracting them, and the other hand and foot could suddenly stretch out, turning and hitting each other in the air, no matter how you look at it, there is no doubt that they are superpowers.
After thinking about it, Shen Ming summoned the holographic panel, wanting to remove the automatic follow, and get closer to the battlefield to watch carefully.
But as soon as the panel was summoned, he noticed that something was wrong.
Hey? What's the task?
I saw that there was one more in the original mission! There are also 1 and 2 separated!
This mission:
1. Find the secret base in the cold mountain, find the "scientific research data" in the base, and return to the ship with the "scientific research data" (142/300).
2. Blow up the mysterious ship that came to invade the Cold Mountain base and remove its threat to the base (69/100).
What's going on? What does the following number mean?
After thinking about it, Shen Ming looked at the number of survivors
Currently Alive: 211/400.
After all, Shen Ming is a well-known hardcore player, and his brain is naturally not stupid, so he quickly analyzed the reason inside.
So that's what happened! I've seen earlier that the group of players who got off the ship weren't all of them! There are also 100 players who belong to which Cold Mountain base! In other words, the map divides the contestants into two camps, two opposing camps!
Indeed, when I saw a large crowd of people, I thought there were 400, but 300 people and 400 people generally looked about the same! And there is also heavy snow, no player will count how many people are around!
The player missions of these two factions are still relative! Just imagine, if the ship was blown up by the people on the other side of the Cold Mountain Base, even if the group of people on the original ship seized the "research materials", who would be handed over to complete the task?
This game company is so thoughtful! In this way, there is no need to send even monsters on the side of the Cold Mountain Base, just a player to help them!
But why 300 on one side and 100 on the other? Is the difference in the number of people on these two sides too big?
Wrong! It's not big! Because the difficulty of their tasks is different, the 300 people have to go to the Cold Mountain Base to get the "research materials" first, and then they have to kill all the way back, while the 100 people have to run from the Cold Mountain Base to the ice shore! And if the 300 people don't know that they are going to blow up the ship, it won't necessarily stop them!
What a battle of information asymmetry!
