Chapter 17 The Coming Rain
The rainstorm came as scheduled, and the howling wind mixed with the raindrops the size of beans hit the leaves with a crackling sound. The waves crashed against the reef on the shore one after another, stirring up the waves.
Lin Xuan ate a boxed lunch, looking at the majestic rain outside, he could imagine how tragic it was for those contestants who couldn't find the building or were still fighting for it.
"Tell me, what is your purpose? You can't team up with me just to shelter from the rain together, right? After eating and drinking, Sakamoto stared at Lin Xuan, who was looking out the window in a daze, and asked.
"Yes, Ming people don't say secret words, I do have a purpose, but this purpose does not harm your interests, I just plan to let you do a small favor." Lin Xuan turned his head and said with a slight smile.
"Oh? Let's hear it. ”
"It's actually quite simple, and I hope you can help me attract some contestants before I leave by helicopter." Lin Xuan said.
"What do you want to do?" Sakamoto asked puzzled.
"Then you don't need to ask, of course you will kill them."
Sakamoto frowned and wondered, "Since it's just to attract contestants, isn't it okay to airdrop?"
Lin Xuan smiled, raised two fingers, and said, "First, the uncertainty of the airdrop. Before the supply landed, no one could accurately determine where it would land, which affected me to set the trap. Second, by now, none of the survivors are weak, and the competition for the next few airdrops will inevitably be fierce, and I don't want to take my life. ”
"Let me think about it... Answer you when the rain stops. Sakamoto rubbed his temples and said.
"No problem." Lin Xuan readily agreed.
"By the way, you have a defensive BIM, right?" However, just as Sakamoto turned around to go back to the corner to rest, Lin Xuan's words made him break out in a cold sweat, and he subconsciously touched his waist bag. This is the strongest hole card that has made him fearless so far, but it was broken by Lin Xuan's words.
"But your defensive BIM is not invincible, otherwise you would have killed us a long time ago. Am I right? The corners of Lin Xuan's mouth rose slightly, watching Sakamoto's every move.
"I don't understand what you're talking about, is there that kind of bim, I don't know." Sakamoto looked away and began to play dumb.
Seeing that Sakamoto didn't admit it, Lin Xuan didn't care, and then said: "I naturally have a basis for saying this, I haven't paid too much attention to it before, judging from your every move, you are a very cautious person, but you agreed to the request to team up with me."
"It's just because I can't find a place to hide from the rain." Sakamoto argued.
"Indeed, I think so too." Lin Xuan said. "But I've found that the fanny pack on your right hand is always in the most comfortable position for you, even when you're climbing the ladder. I guess that's your hole card. ”
"Then why is it a defensive BIM instead of an offensive one?" Qin Yue asked weakly.
"Actually, it's all my guess, do you believe it?" Lin Xuan said to Qin Yue with a smile.
"But judging by his expression, I've guessed correctly, right, Sakamoto-kun?" Lin Xuan added.
"Alas......" Sakamoto sighed and said, "You are the most dangerous opponent I have ever seen, but fortunately I didn't fight you." You're right, I do have such a BIM, what do you want? ”
"I want to make a deal with you, how about I trade my other BIM for your defensive BIM? After all, you don't have much BIM, right? Lin Xuan licked his lips, if he had an additional means of defense now, his chances of survival would definitely increase by one level.
"You're such a demon, although I don't know how you guessed it, and I won't hide it from you, my BIM is really not much, but unfortunately, this defensive BIM will have an effect as soon as it is activated, and it can't be transferred to others." Sakamoto said helplessly.
"I'm sorry, but I still want to trade with you, so I'll use this." As he spoke, Sakamoto took out an oval BIM from his waist bag that Lin Xuan had never seen.
"What is this?" Lin Xuan took the BIM and checked the prop information:
"C-class prop: Cryo bomb, a silver-white oval bomb shaped like a bird's egg, thrown after pressing the switch, and when hit or impacted, it can release a circular cold air array with a radius of two meters starting from the center of the explosion, and the enemy at the center of the explosion will be frozen. The effect is enhanced when the environment is humid. It is used to isolate terrain and restrict enemy movements. World-exclusive items that cannot be taken out of this world. ”
"This is what I got from the airdrop supply before, and it's the first time I've seen this type of BIM, and there are no bombs with this kind of function in the game." Michichi Sakamoto.
"It's kind of interesting, I swapped with you." Lin Xuan readily agreed.
In the end, Lin Xuan exchanged 4 Impact, 2 Chrono and 1 Burning with Sakamoto for 3 Cryonics, and transferred the ownership of 4 Impacts and 1 Cryonics to Qin Yue.
At this time, the progress of Lin Xuan's task is:
Main Mission 1: Kill at least 7 participants and get their chips (5/7)
Side Mission 1 (Collector's Fetish): Collect 8 different types of BIM bombs (7/8)
Side Mission 2 (Survivor): Survive and survive on the island for 5 days (3/5)
"The collecting habit is still the last one to be completed, probably that defensive type......" Lin Xuan thought to himself, constantly looking at Sakamoto's waist bag with a defensive BIM.
Sakamoto, who was glanced at by Lin Xuan's greedy gaze, was a little panicked, and hurriedly walked to the corner to rest with his pocketbag in his pocket.
"It's a pity......" Lin Xuan shook his head and looked away.
Just after Sakamoto went to the corner to rest, Qin Yue quietly moved to Lin Xuan's side and asked in a low voice, "How did you know that he didn't have much BIM before?"
Looking at the girl who came over with a curious face, Lin Xuan smiled: "I guess, do you believe it?"
"Humph! I don't believe it, I don't want to say it. Qin Yue puffed out her cheeks and turned her head away as if she was angry.
"Actually, it's nothing, just think about it and you can notice it. Think about it, what would you do if you captured Sakamoto? Lin Xuan naturally wouldn't leave Qin Yue aside, and began to analyze her. Qin Yue also turned her head and listened carefully.
"Me? Torture them, of course, and then take the chips and bombs. Qin Yue also shook her fist fiercely.
"Hello!" Sakamoto, who was sitting in a far corner resting, suddenly sneezed.
“…… Okay, so do you know why he didn't abuse you hard and then kill you? Lin Xuan wiped a cold sweat that didn't exist, and then asked.
"He said he didn't mean anything, he just wanted to meet you." Qin Yue was stunned and replied.
"That's why you say you're stupid, and you'll believe that lame reason."
"You're stupid! Your whole family is stupid! Qin Yue stomped her feet angrily. Every time Lin Xuan said she was stupid, she was about to wonder if she was really that stupid.
However, Lin Xuan ignored her and continued: "He has a total of four waist packs, needless to say, the defensive BIM must be the one he consumes the most." ”
"Aren't there three other fanny packs?"
"He participated in today's airdrop and got supplies, which means that he fought with other contestants, and since it is a battle, it must be consumed, and it is impossible to always blindly defend. However, today's loot was very miserable, so I don't think the total number of BIMs in his three fanny packs will exceed fifteen, and the remaining defensive types will definitely not exceed three. Lin Xuan's index finger kept curling a handful of hair and analyzed.
"Didn't kill you, just because you had too few bombs. He was going to use you to seduce me and kill both of us in one fell swoop. But after seeing the bomb in my body, he shrugged, so he offered to exchange the chip for the hostage. In this way, he can also go back to society. ”
"Since you already knew, why don't you take the opportunity to kill him? There's no reason you can't hit him with so many bombs. Qin Yue asked again.
"I also had scruples at the time, because I didn't know what his bomb was, and he was very vigilant, and the success rate was too low."
"And now?" Qin Yue frowned and looked at Sakamoto, who was resting in the distance.
"Not now." Lin Xuan shook his head, "Although his defensive style is very tempting, but if he fights here, he can completely die with us, and his flashing out the frozen style actually makes me cast a rat trap..."
"Alright, let's go rest, tonight is probably the last night on this island." didn't give Qin Yue a chance to ask questions, Lin Xuan directly drove her to rest.
The storm continued, and the surroundings of the hut were very calm, and no contestants rushed over, which also made Lin Xuan breathe a sigh of relief.
Following
The storm came and went as fast as it came, and last night it was still very windy and rainy, and now even half of the dark clouds were not visible.
Lin Xuan pushed Qin Yue, who was still asleep, trying to wake her up.
"Woo... I still want to eat..."Qin Yue muttered a few words, turned over, and was still asleep.
“……”
Looking at Qin Yue, who was still asleep, Lin Xuan clenched his fists and shouted loudly: "If you don't get up, you won't have breakfast!"
"Ahh Breakfast? I'm up! Qin Yue, who heard breakfast, instantly sat up, leaving Lin Xuan speechless for a while.
"Huh? What about Sakamoto? After waking up, Qin Yue immediately found that Sakamoto had disappeared without a trace, and couldn't help asking.
"In the wee hours of the morning, the rain stopped and left." Lin Xuan held the steaming cup of noodles and said lightly.
Hearing that Sakamoto secretly left, Qin Yue couldn't help asking, "Then why didn't you stop him?" Aren't we going to let him help us attract contestants? ”
"Why stop? People don't want me to do anything. Anyway, hurry up and finish your meal and go. ”
"Isn't Sakamoto already gone? So where are we going? Qin Yue asked puzzled.
"Of course, I went to the place where the helicopter picked up Sakamoto. Although Sakamoto doesn't help, the helicopter can attract some contestants. Lin Xuan said with some uncertainty.
"But do you know where the helicopter lands?"
"Although Sakamoto didn't tell me, I still know." Lin Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Before this, there was a bigger building closer to us, but I didn't take you there, but instead came back here from afar, do you know why?"
