Chapter 4: The Forerunners

Fang Hao thought to herself: "Who said it's useless to play games? Isn't this going to come in handy, and you can save your life when it's critical! By the way, I can't be in the game, right? But I didn't see any panel attributes! ”

His mind was relaxed, and his steps were brisk.

After about half an hour of unsettling waves, Fang Hao suddenly felt palpitations.

But then there was no trance, and there were no visions of crisis events as before.

This made him a little confused.

The feeling of palpitations became stronger and stronger, but he was a little at a loss, and he didn't know how to deal with it, so he subconsciously ran.

I can't help but think of the trouble I had when I was a child, and I would guess with trepidation whether it would be men's singles, women's singles or mixed doubles.

It's a pity that his parents are gone, and his sister can't beat him now.

In the midst of his thoughts, he suddenly made a pop and stepped into the puddle.

Excited by the cold water, he suddenly shivered, and hurriedly stepped on the water to expose his head to the water.

Wipe away the droplets of water in front of you, and look around, and see that the grass has turned into water. Except for the mountains in the distance, there is an ocean on all sides.

Fang Hao began to learn to swim when he was in elementary school, and the water was not bad, just falling into the water would not make him panic.

But this change was not found in the game dungeon, and he couldn't help but be apprehensive.

You can't see the shore on all sides, so if you want to swim to the bottom of the mountain, you'll be exhausted first. He swam slowly, alert for a possible crisis.

After a while, the fears did not happen, the surface and the water were calm, there were neither big waves nor water monsters.

He calmed down for a moment.

It seems that this place is still very different from the game copy. Experience in the game is not enough to deal with all situations.

Fortunately, this time it is not dangerous to fall into the water, so you should be more careful in the future, but don't lose your life carelessly.

Thinking of Brother Bin's death, his body couldn't help but tremble.

Half because of fear, half because of cold.

The cold water was constantly absorbing the heat from his body, and in less than ten minutes he felt his limbs tingle with cold, and he had to speed up his strokes to slow down his hypothermia.

I thought to myself, although this is not the case in the game dungeon, but in fact, there are still similarities with the setting of the dungeon.

In that game copy, crisis events can be divided into three categories.

One is a dilemma. Restrict the character's movement for a certain period of time, and the physical strength and energy will decrease at an accelerated rate.

The second is the killing game. The game character will be attacked, and different amounts of health will be deducted according to the degree of damage, and the blood gauge will be hung up when it is empty.

The third is a dead end. Once you hit the trick, GG will fall out of the dungeon, but there will still be a glimmer of life.

If you turn back or stop for a long time, the dilemma will turn into a killing game, the killing game will become a dead game, and the dead game will be completely unsolvable.

This ocean clearly belongs to the first type. Although it is not fatal, it is very uncomfortable.

Although it can be basically concluded that this ocean will not last long, there will always be an end. But at that time, the energy and physical strength will definitely be greatly consumed, and I am afraid that I will not have the strength to run if I encounter danger again.

After soaking in the water for nearly half an hour, Fang Hao's teeth kept fighting, and even if he paddled desperately, he couldn't stop his limbs from gradually losing consciousness.

Eventually, a green meadow appeared in his field of vision and swept towards him quickly.

Fang Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief, fluttered a few times, and climbed onto the grass with difficulty.

He struggled to his feet, opened his arms to meet the sun, and finally felt the warmth, and his body gradually stopped shaking. He staggered for a while, and his hands and feet slowly regained their flexibility.

Wringing the water from his clothes, he reached into his pants pocket. The box of cigarettes had been soaked and thrown away.

Binge's mobile phone is of good quality, it is waterproof, and it can still light up the screen.

The above time is displayed as 12:06, and it has been nearly 2 hours since entering the "Flying Beam Dao Realm".

I looked at the position of the sun in the sky again, and it seemed to be at the highest point.

Could it be that the time here is consistent with the real world outside?

He dug into his other pocket again, pulled out some chocolate candy, and was overjoyed.

Immediately tear open a piece of plastic wrapping, put it in your mouth and chew it slowly to replenish the calories you have just consumed in the water.

These things have to be saved. There were about 19 hours to go, and that was the only supplies he had.

-----------------

The setting sun sank behind the mountains, and the afterglow reflected the sky red.

Fang Hao looked at the time, at 19:08, there were still about twelve hours before the completion time limit.

From noon to this meeting, he experienced a total of nineteen crisis events.

Every time a crisis is about to come, there is a feeling of palpitations without exception.

Eight of them were in a state of trance in addition to palpitations, seeing visions of danger and allowing them to respond in advance.

The remaining eleven were only able to adapt to the crisis as it arose.

Most of the crisis events have appeared in that copy of the game, and with the help of game strategies and skills, you can deal with the past without danger.

It's also a pity that it's just the majority, and the dungeon strategy can't cover everything. Although there are only a few such out-of-the-ordinary crisis events, each time it is extremely dangerous.

This can be tricky especially when you don't see illusions or game guides to match.

The most dangerous one, there is only a thin line away from death, and it is really fateful to be able to escape.

Fang Hao knew very well that good luck would not always favor him.

In his life of more than ten years, there must be more unlucky times than lucky times. If you pin all your hopes on luck, there is a high probability that you will hang here in the end.

So since that escape, he has been wondering if there is a safe way to take the initiative in his own hands.

After a period of thinking and trying, he finally came up with a more reliable strategy.

Since entering the "Flying Liang Dao Realm", he has seen a total of ten warning illusions, but only three characters have appeared in the illusions.

One is a young man who has been entwined by branches, one is an uncle who has been imprisoned in a stone prison, and the other is Brother Bin.

Each illusion is the situation of these three people when they encounter a crisis event.

He came to the conclusion that all three of them had entered the "Flying Liang Dao Realm" before him and were his forerunners.

The reason why some of the crisis events were not preceded by warning visions was because the three had never been to that area.

Besides, he was pretty sure that the designer of the copy of the game had definitely been here and left alive.

The proof is that the degree of restoration of the crisis events in the "Flying Liang Dao Realm" in the game copy is too high, and the game strategy and skills are fully applicable here.

It would not have been possible to do this without experiencing it yourself.

And the dead don't know how to design and develop games.

However, the designer of the dungeon should not have experienced all the crisis events in the "Flying Liang Dao Realm", so there are fewer types of crisis events in the dungeon.

This also shows that persevering to get out of here alive in the end does not mean stepping on all the pits.

This gave Fang Hao a revelation: he could choose to step on those pits with a relatively large grasp.

The biggest hole card in his hand is undoubtedly the game copy strategy, which can be called the standard answer to solve the crisis.

But what the next crisis event will be, whether the game strategy will work, these are unknown, and he can't decide at all.

However, he has a second hole card, which is the warning illusion.

Through the illusion, not only can you predict what kind of danger you will face, but you can also see the demonstration from the three forerunners.

If the demonstration is correct, then it is enough to follow it; If it is incorrect, at least one wrong option is also ruled out.

Therefore, Fang Hao's strategy was to find out the path of the three forerunners and follow the path they had walked.

While this method is not 100% safe, there are still unexpected dangers in the search for inferred forerunners' movements.

At the very least, this can take the initiative, reduce the difficulty of resolving crisis events, and increase the probability of survival.

-----------------

Ten minutes later, Fang Hao's vision of a police appeared in front of him again.

[A young man with silver-gray hair, ragged and covered in blood, like a war-torn refugee, was walking exhaustively on the dawn field. 】

"It's Brother Bin!" Fang Hao's spirits perked up. Although this was not the result he wanted most, he was still able to accept it.

[A few black clouds suddenly appeared in the sky, and bean-sized raindrops poured down. Brother Bin ran in small steps, trying to get out of these dark clouds as soon as possible. 】

[Suddenly, Brother Bin let out a miserable scream, and a hole opened in his back, and blood kept gushing out, as if he had been slashed by a sharp blade. 】

[In those raindrops, there are some ice blades. 】

[Brother Bin raised his head, flashing left and right to avoid those ice blades, but he was still constantly hit, and there were more and more blood cuts on his body. 】

[As his wounds increased, his strength passed rapidly, and he finally collapsed to the ground. 】

[The ice blades kept falling, but they all landed around Brother Bin, and they didn't hit him again. Brother Bin had a look of surprise on his face and sat up from the ground. 】

[A thick icicle emerges from the grass beneath Binge's buttocks, penetrates through, and pushes Binge up. 】

[Brother Bin let out a terrible scream, twisted his body a few times in vain, and soon the miserable howl was quiet, and finally there was no sound. 】

[The black clouds in the sky and the ice picks on the ground dissipate.] Binge fell to the grass and disappeared after a few moments. 】

Seeing this tragic scene, Fang Hao shuddered.

The illusion disappeared, and Fang Hao hurriedly restrained the fear in his heart and concentrated on the coming crisis.

After a while, several black clouds appeared overhead, making the already dim light suddenly even darker.

Fang Hao's eyes widened, trying his best to capture the killing intent hidden in the raindrops.

With the last remaining rays of the setting sun, he saw a red glitter flashing overhead, and hurriedly took a step to the side.

An ice blade landed where he had only stood, and quickly disappeared into nothingness.

Fang Hao stepped back again, standing where the ice blade had disappeared. When another blade of ice falls, move to a new location, never staying in the same place for more than five seconds.

As the light gets dimmer, it becomes difficult to catch the ice blades around you.

Fang Hao had an idea and turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone, although it could only illuminate the area of a few meters around him, it was enough.

Seeing that the coping method worked, Fang Hao did not take the shortest path and hurriedly left the range of the black clouds.

He walked in the direction of Brother Bin's arrival, as he had seen in the illusion before.

Along the way, there were stops and stops, and sometimes there were detours, and after half an hour, finally no more rain was falling.
