Chapter 392: Reduced Difficulty? No, it increases the difficulty! (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass)
After a short break at the gas station, most of the Chosen ones took a breath and followed the route shown on the map on the bracelet.
For the rest of the day, adjust your breathing and push the pedal hard.
Zhang Yangqing's side started the accelerator!
This one can be lazy and really doesn't want to move on his own.
As Ramirez left, he observed the other contestants.
It seems that at this stage, everyone is still moving forward according to their own routes, and there are still very few places to intersect except for overtime stations and check-in points.
So if you want to form an alliance, it's not at this time.
After all, if you form an alliance now, you may not be able to meet it later, and maybe the other contestants will die in the process of riding, which is not in vain.
It seems that the other contestants are also thinking the same way, and few are willing to talk to each other at this stage.
Unless you are like Zhang Yangqing, the starting point is the same place, you can help each other.
At least the starting point is a place to prove that the camp is the same, and there is no fear of being backstabbed at this stage.
While thinking, Ramirez almost rode into a ditch.
Now the night road is getting more and more outrageous, and there were guardrails at the beginning, but now there are no guardrails.
Some corners are not very brightly lit, and it is easy to go straight down if you are fast.
Ramirez was a quick reflex, and a few of them really fell.
It's not a cliff here, it's just a stinky ditch.
The Chosen ones cursed as they got up from the stinking ditch.
Then pull the bike up, whether it stinks or not, and move on.
Passing through these pitted places, you can see that the Chosen ones seem to be starting to slow down.
Some Chosen ones really want to catch up with the cycling team in front of them, and want to get a better position at the next check-in point, so as to determine their position in the cycling team and strive to get the desired position in the final sprint.
But the problem is that they want to accelerate, and the strange world seems to have calculated this, and the route from the first check-in point to the second check-in point is that there are many curves.
The first stinky ditch is already a reminder to them, and there may be thousands of cliffs behind them, or strange rivers inhabited by them.
It just doesn't give the Chosen a chance to accelerate.
If you have the courage to accelerate, you must pay attention to the roadside situation at all times, otherwise the second check-in point will not enter, and the people will be gone.
Actually, Sidney has a not-so-clever operation here.
He felt that the light on the road section was not very good, so he could find a way to make a light.
So he took a fancy to the street lamp on the side of the road, and he tried to violently break the lamppost and remove it to light the road ahead.
But the problem is that he has no power supply, and the street lights don't come on after he removes it.
No matter how long the line under the street lamp is, he can't ride it.
At this time, the audience can see that the paladins of Ramen Country are working hard and uselessly.
El Greco is a little helpless, why are you kid dismantling the street lamp, you don't know the lighting principle of the street lamp?
I think so, but he can't help it if he lets him in, and he may tear down the street lamp to see if it can be illuminated.
In fact, Greco understands these truths, but the one next door is sitting on a mud cart and leading all the way with the high beams on, Greco doesn't understand a little, could it be that the Dragon Kingdom Heavenly Master ignored the prompts of Rule 1.
You know, Rule 1 says that the gun shoots the first bird, and fast is not necessarily a good thing.
At this stage, Robert showed a wave of superiority.
Although Greco didn't ask, he seemed to see it, so he took care of himself and explained to the other cardinals that he was actually deliberately telling Greco.
According to him, the Dragon Kingdom Celestial Master must have known that Rule 1 would encounter danger, but in the world of strange talks, danger is often accompanied by high returns, and if he survives this danger, then his lead will not be shaken.
Robert also focused on reading the rules, after all, the rules say that the lead is not necessarily a good thing.
Not necessarily.
If the rule says that there is danger in the lead, then this rule is the danger that there is no benefit.
Since the rules say that it is not necessarily a good thing, then it is telling the Chosen One that this danger is relative, and maybe if you solve it, it is not a danger, but it is a benefit, but if you don't solve it, it is a danger.
The world of strange talk does not recommend the Chosen to solve it, which means that most of their abilities cannot solve it.
That's why the Chosen One is reminded that as long as the Chosen One is not ahead, this danger may not be encountered.
And the danger will definitely be solved by the other contestants, that's Robert's thinking.
The fact that the other Chosen One did not dare to take the lead does not mean that this one did not dare.
Robert said so much, it seems that he is picking up his colleagues to explain, but in fact, he is sarcastic Greco, you have been in so many times and you can't see it? I'll be able to see it as soon as I come out, and it seems that you can't do it either!
That's where Robert is great.
But Greco only nodded, with a look of sudden realization, as if he understood his explanation, but did not understand his sarcasm.
That's where El Greco comes in.
Anyway, I'm just this confused look, let you, a thoughtful person, guess if I understand.
Because everyone's experience is different, El Greco used to not have a very good temper, was irritable, and often made mistakes.
The pope at the time, when he was only a cardinal, had been helping him to adjust his emotions.
Later, he learned a way to hear it, and pretend not to hear it.
At that time, Greco was still a priest, and his personality was disliked by many colleagues, and people often spoke ill of him behind his back.
Once, while he was confessing his sins in the confessional room of a church, he heard two colleagues around him speaking ill of him, and he heard it clearly.
According to the previous temper, there will definitely be bloody contradictions.
But in this case, it will cause trouble for the cardinal who brought him, that is, the current pope.
But if he doesn't go out, he will be panicked, which is not his style.
So he thought of a solution, which was to walk in with headphones and let the two colleagues guess for the rest of their lives, guessing whether El Greco had heard them say bad things behind their backs.
This method is really easy to use, and over time, there will be a lot less gossip, because everyone is afraid that he will come out of nowhere.
So now El Greco has developed this habit, anyway, I understand it this way, I don't mess with you, you guess for yourself whether I heard, or whether I understood.
Unless you point my nose at me in front of me, I won't bother with you.
Because if I care about this, I will seem to be the kind of narrow-minded person.
When Robert wondered if this guy was pretending to be stupid, Greco was engrossed in watching the big screen.
He wasn't looking at Sidney, he was looking at Schiapatti.
People are like this, even if he doesn't want to compare, he is still comparing some Chosen ones with the Heavenly Master of the Dragon Kingdom.
"Sidney can't grab the mud cart, even if he can't grab it, won't this special spell master rob it either?"
Seeing that the sixties were still pedaling the road, El Greco was very puzzled.
It seems that after the fall arena, Schiapatti's style of play is terrifyingly stable.
However, as the only person in the audience who is at the same level as the Dragon Kingdom Heavenly Master, everyone will naturally compare him with Zhang Yangqing.
Now, the pressure is all on Schiapatti, and if he doesn't perform as well as Zhang Yangqing, it's actually understandable.
After all, it is not the first time that Zhang Yangqing has entered, and he has a huge advantage in terms of experience.
But if Chapatti's performance is worse than the other Chosen One, it will be dangerous, and the wind rating that has just risen a little will plummet in an instant.
Just like the audience said, when they saw Shapatti in reality, they didn't dare to breathe.
But if you don't perform well, you still won't get our approval online!
Like Zhang Yangqing, there are really few people who are unanimously praised in reality and on the Internet.
In the world of weird talk, the Chosen ones seem to be getting more and more difficult.
As the night gets darker, the weather seems to get colder and colder.
The Chosen ones wore thin tracksuits and rode on the road.
The cold wind blew and made people's bones tremble.
At this time, some of the chosen ones who got the trash can and the grandmother's torn cotton jacket put it on.
I have to say that this padded jacket is really warm, and after wearing it, it not only warms up the body, but also feels a heart-warming power.
It's as if you've done something good and you've been grateful.
Ramirez actually has a padded jacket too, but he feels that it is not the cold time yet, and he can hold on a bit.
I really can't bear it and wear it again, it will be much better.
After all, he survives in the world of strange talks, and the main thing is to adapt.
Sidney is much better, the advantage of rough skin and thick flesh is here, he took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket that he didn't know from which cabinet, and bit it down to replenish his energy.
As for instant noodles, biscuits, and other dry foods, they are still reluctant to eat them.
When it's not time to be hungry, it's all hidden.
"In this damn place, the street lights are so far apart that I can't even see the road clearly."
Sidney noticed the strange phenomenon of this section of the road, that is, the streetlights were spaced farther and farther apart as we got to the back section.
And in the second stage, it was as if he didn't see any vehicles passing by.
If it weren't for the map, he would have thought he was on the wrong track.
According to Sidney's calculations, if it goes on like this, there will be only one street light at least a few hundred meters behind, so how can you go?
Could it be that the strange world is for me to get a flashlight or something like that?
Where can I do this wilderness?
And at night, is there anyone around here?
Sidney's ears are very good, and when riding, he avoids some corners by listening to the sound of running water on the side of the road.
These are all up to the Chosen One's own abilities.
"When I have a car, I am afraid of being hit by a car, and now when I don't have a car, I want the car to come, and I always feel that the strange world is playing tricks on me."
Ramirez spat bitter water while riding cautiously.
After all, passing vehicles are also lighted, and you can judge how to go by observing the route of the mud truck from behind.
According to Ramirez's idea, the lack of vehicles in this level theoretically reduces the difficulty, but in fact increases the difficulty.
If he couldn't find the tools to illuminate it, Ramirez felt that he would have to walk on the road behind him, or he wouldn't dare to take the curve.
It was then that he saw a slight light under the road.
Because there is a river next to the road, at this point, there are still anglers.
These anglers have lanterns in their hands, or flashlights.
Don't look at things in general, but now it's all what Ramirez wants.
But here's the problem, these anglers don't seem to be simple at all.
Under the light of a few lights, you can see the ghostly figures of these strange anglers, silent and eerie.
It makes people feel as if he exists, and as if he will disappear at any moment.
It's just that there's a sense of unreality.
If you get closer, you can see that the skin of the strange angler is like the bark of an ancient tree with dead branches, sliding to the ground from time to time, making you feel a deep fear when gazing.
There was an eerie atmosphere around it, stinking like freshly turned dirt, heavy and oppressive.
Not far away on the surface of the river, there are some unidentified objects floating, they loom in the night, as if they are wreckage, and they seem to be alien creatures.
Whenever the wind rose, the wreckage moved slightly, as if it had been alive for a short time, setting off ripples on the surface of the river, making people shudder.
The river is illuminated by the light and takes on a deep black color, like a mirror, allowing people to see different worlds.
Or rather, the real world is in the river.
This made many of the Chosen ones who were ready to go up and talk to them stop.
Because they saw that the faces of some strange anglers not far away were reflected in the river, and they were distorted and distorted, as if they were a resentful spirit swimming in the depths of the water, completely different from what they saw.
On this eerie and terrifying night, the angler sits quietly by the river with his eyes blank, as if to merge with the darkness, the water, the wreckage and the eerie atmosphere.
His very existence is a horror, or an inescapable curse.
In the middle of the night by the river to meet such people who are not afraid.
The Chosen are also afraid that they will become the wreckage of the river.
But looking at the road in the distance, there were no street lights, so they had to stop under the only street lamp and hide the car with their own hands.
lest any one who lacks virtue steal the car from them, although many of the chosen ones also steal the car.
Ramirez jumped off the road and came next to the weird angler, looking very alert.
When he got closer, he realized that the strange angler's legs seemed to be sunk in the dirt, and there were many vines around his body.
It seems that I have been sitting here for a long time, otherwise there would not be such a strange situation.
Ramirez was bold and said, "Is there anything you need help with?" If you need to fish from another location, I can give you a ride somewhere else. ”
The weird angler didn't look at Ramirez, his eyes were fixed on the buoy, waiting for the fish to take the bait.
However, he still replied: "No need for kind passers-by, I am already fine here, have you encountered any difficulties?" ”
This sentence can make Ramirez straight.
Because he had predicted many dangerous ways in his mind, that is, he disturbed the weird angler, and the weird angler scolded him angrily, or cleaned him up.
In fact, he was already preparing his escape route, and you told me that the weird angler was so good at talking? And even started to care about me?
Ramirez's mind was spinning wildly, and then he started telling the truth, saying that he was a night cyclist, and that the road ahead was winding and rough, and there were no street lights, so it was difficult for him to get through.
So Ramirez didn't say the rest of the words, but the weird angler also understood that Ramirez wanted the lighting tools in his hand.
I can't help it if I tell the truth, I really can't find any reason to ask for someone's flashlight.
So, the strange angler moved his hand, handed over the lighting tool in his hand, and said in a very gentle manner: "Oh, if you need a lamp, you can just take it, I won't need it." ”
At this moment, maybe the audience doesn't care, but almost all the Chosen ones are stunned and all of them are stunned.
Their expressions were as if they had seen an incredible scene, as if to say: We are all ready to be pitted, but you said to send us?
It's the first time I've seen the weirdness in the weird world so polite.
No, big brother, I'm embarrassed to take it if you don't ask for it!
And I'm scared if you didn't ask for it.
In fact, it's not the Chosen One who slander other weirdness, those weirdness can't wait to kill them, how can they be so kind.
No Chosen One dares to take something and leave.
Ramirez seems to feel that something is wrong, as if the rules have mentioned it.
To be precise, there is a clear rule 2 reminder here.
[Rule 2: During the ride, if someone asks you to give him a ride on the side of the road, if he is willing to give you what he has in his hand, you can give him a ride, but you must not send him to his destination.] 】
Carrying passengers is also divided into active and passive, the active depends on whether he has something in his hand, and if he does not have it, it is very dangerous.
It is basically clear that this point will survive to this stage.
Then Ramirez was frantically thinking about what he was missing here.
Suddenly, he thought of the last few words, "Absolutely not to send him to his destination".
"If I'm not mistaken, this rule needs to be understood the other way around."
Ramirez observed the situation around him and made a judgment.
The weird angler just said that he was fine in this place.
He explained that this was his destination.
I took what he had in my hand, and he was still here, which was equivalent to sending him to his destination.
Then you will be in danger of breaking the rules.
This seems to be a deceptive bridge, but it is a real pit.
If you can't think of that, you can't continue to think about it.
Next, Ramirez began to observe the surroundings of the strange angler.
In fact, he thought it was weird at first glance, but after looking at it too much, he seemed to have found something.
The weird angler feels as if he's been 'cursed' in this place, and he really does feel that way.
He seemed unable to move, his eyes darkened.
If Ramirez guessed correctly, because of the special rules, he can't tell the truth, so he can only say to passers-by, is he in trouble and seeking my help?
As soon as he thought about it, Ramirez knew what he had to do.
Actually, there are quite a few steps.
Ramirez said, "Seeing that you have been sitting here for too long, I will take you somewhere else." ”
He could perceive that after the strange angler heard this, his pupils obviously contracted suddenly, and there was an obvious mood swing, which was a feeling of surprise.
