The first night was not peaceful.
Just in Qiu Yu's vague perception, there were several groups of terrifying auras lingering outside the tent.
If the level of the current world is not only -1, which limits the abilities of those beings in all aspects, or if there are balance settings such as protection for novices who have just started, this tent and the people hiding in it should not be able to see the second The sun of the day.
Li Cheng's nerves are extremely rough. One moment he was complaining that the tent was too small and his legs couldn't stand straight, and the next moment he was snoring. Then I slept carefree until dawn.
"Let's set off towards Xidu."
Like a child looking forward to an outing, Li Cheng's boundless energy burst out as soon as he opened his eyes. But after opening the tent and looking at the bare world in front of him, he vaguely realized that the current situation was still somewhat different from that of an outing.
Although I was mentally prepared and knew that many civilizational creations would disappear, the crops and even the weeds that grew in the crop fields disappeared together. All you can see are gray sand, yellow soil and turbid puddles. The whole world interprets the word "heavy" with itself, and puts it heavily on the head of every civilized creature.
"this world......"
Li Cheng probably wanted to use the appropriate words he learned from video games, saying that the world is dead or something like that, but in the end he swallowed the second half of the sentence.
Qiu Yu's mood was more complicated than his. After taking a few seconds to recover the tent, he waved to him and set off.
In Qiuyu's plan, the more ordinary he behaves, the better. Even if he has the confidence to go on the road alone and reach Xidu as quickly as possible, he still plans to follow the instructions on the radio and meet up with people nearby before setting off together.
The meeting place is an office center at all levels. There will definitely be no buildings left, but the location will not change. It took the two of them half an hour to reach the big hole left by the village office center without any danger, but they didn't see anyone here. Maybe the two of them arrived too early, maybe the other villagers didn't have a radio that could listen to the broadcast, or maybe there was no third survivor here.
Qiu Yu didn't intend to waste time waiting here. Now that there are actual actions to come here, as an ordinary person who has encountered a major disaster for the first time, it is completely normal to turn around and leave without seeing anyone in the dangerous wilderness.
So, after pretending to discuss it with Li Cheng, but not giving him any time to think, Qiu Yu made the decision to move to the township office center.
An hour later, there was still no one in front of the big pit in the township office center. At this time, even Li Cheng, who was relatively slow to try, felt something was wrong and offered to rush to the county seat immediately.
The current location is more than 20 kilometers away from the county seat. Normally, this distance can be reached in the same day, even on foot.
But the controller of this game did not let go of any civilization creation.
The road connecting the county seat was dug away by unspeakable forces. Where the road was originally, it turned into a three-meter-deep ditch. Do you have to fall into the soft soil on both sides? Let alone walking in it, just looking at it from the side gives you the illusion that you may be buried alive at any time.
Losing some things that we usually take for granted
Only later will people realize that it once existed and how much convenience it has brought to people.
Although Qiu Yu was not worried about being buried alive, because Li Cheng objected, he could only force him to walk along the edge of the ditch.
The flat road turns into a rugged mountain road, and the speed naturally cannot be increased. Coupled with the disappearance of all civilizational creations, it is difficult to judge how far we have come and how far we still need to go. Especially for someone like Li Cheng who was unfamiliar with the local environment, he felt like he was walking on a cliff with no end in sight.
After only walking for an hour, sweat was already visible on his forehead and his breathing became more and more messy.
The psychological impact caused his physical consumption to increase several times out of thin air.
In Qiu Yu's view, Li Cheng already has a nerve that is far beyond that of ordinary people. Even he is gradually showing signs of collapse under the special environment catalyzed by time. So you can imagine what the situation is like for the vast majority of ordinary people. Know.
Based on the possibility of using it in the future, Qiuyu began to formulate positive psychological intervention techniques in his mind.
A few seconds later, the combination of words was completed. Just when he was about to try the effect on Li Cheng, the latter suddenly said, "Let's go to the house in front and take a rest."
Qiuyu's first reaction was that Li Cheng had collapsed. When my perception was spread to the maximum, I didn't feel the existence of any house at all, and no house even appeared within the range of the spread of perception. But when he looked in the direction Li Cheng pointed, he did indeed see a house, or in other words, a European-style castle-like building.
"Suddenly?"
Li Cheng nodded, "It seems so. Anyway, I didn't see this thing there a few seconds ago."
Qiu Yu retreated some distance and could still see it. It's not like it appears after entering a certain distance or location.
"Let's go and have a look." Li Cheng added, "We cannot violate the first golden rule of the game."
Qiu Yu was confused, "What rules?"
"You must enter every house."
"...Could it be that the second rule is to open the box as soon as you see it?"
Qiu Yu's real emotional intelligence is not high, but he can simulate himself as a person with super high emotional intelligence. Knowing that Li Cheng was using a joke to relieve pressure, he cooperated with him perfectly. Moving towards the castle while talking about random things.
An hour later, in order to save energy, Qiu Yu stopped talking and only responded with a simple nasal voice.
Two hours later, Li Cheng stopped talking because of thirst.
Three hours later, the two finally saw the gate of the castle from a distance.
Judging from the scene in front of me, the word "fort" can be completely removed. This is a huge city.
A tall city wall of more than fifty meters surrounds the entire city. The buildings in the city rise step by step as if standing on a staircase. The building in the center is four to five hundred meters high, and with its huge conical roof, it is like an artificial mountain.
The closer he got to the city gate, the slower Li Cheng's walking speed became.
When he was still more than a hundred meters away from the city gate, Li Cheng stopped completely.
"Based on the first rule of the game, I think it's better not to go in."
"Huh?" Qiu Yu
Qidao said, "According to the principle of entry into every house, you decided not to go in?"
"The first golden rule is to enter every house you visit. What I'm talking about now is the first diamond rule. You will definitely not go in and you will know that the grade does not match the level."
Qiu Yu nodded thoughtfully and summoned the tent.
"Then just wait here and I'll go in and take a look."
"Okay." Li Cheng, who had long wanted to rest, got into the tent, then showed his head again and looked at Qiu Yu seriously, "You can go without worries."
Qiu Yu pouted, turned around and walked towards the door.
"Um..." Li Cheng stopped Qiu Yu and said matter-of-factly, "Why don't you explain anything else?"
"For example?"
"For example, if you don't come back for a long time, I won't have to wait for you. For example, if you enter, it may be unlucky, so I need to help keep the money."
Qiu Yu waved his hand, "Don't worry, I'm not afraid of you running away."
Li Cheng muttered, "I say, you should be afraid."
Qiu Yu came to the door and knocked on the door with his finger.
My fingers hurt a little, and the information I got from touch and perception was consistent—this was a door made of ordinary steel.
If there is anything special about it, it is that the door is welded shut both inside and outside. There is only a small door on the lower right side of the door that can barely pass by a single person.
This door is very hidden. The gaps in the door are at the micron level. If it weren't for the spread of perception, Qiu Yu wouldn't be able to detect it at all.
Qiu Yu is not a conspiracy theorist, but after wallowing in endless conspiracies for a long time, he always feels that this door is specially prepared for him. Because when he stood in front of the door and didn't reach out, the door automatically and silently slid inwards and opened, his suspicion became even stronger.
After stepping through the door, it closed silently behind Qiu Yu. In terms of technical content, this small door is the highest within Qiuyu's perceptual spread range.
After returning to the door and seeing it open again, Qiu Yu calmly looked at the inner view of the city in front of him.
The streets in the city are very wide, but the road surface is hardened by high-strength cement, but it is not smooth. There are many potholes of different sizes, as if it has experienced a round of destruction by various types of weapons.
The buildings on both sides of the street have no signboards. The architectural types are all arbitrary and fantasy Gothic, with no functional divisions at all.
All of these buildings were damaged to varying degrees, but there was no complete collapse. It seemed that in addition to the excellent quality of the buildings, the main reason was that there seemed to be no powerful thermal weapons here.
Qiu Yu scanned it with the maximum range of perception spread, but did not find a single life form, not even a single weapon that should be present in large numbers. This may mean some kind of danger that he feels is troublesome.
Just when Qiu Yu was hesitating whether it was necessary to risk going deep, he sensed uncoordinated fluctuations in the space around him, and then, a headache-inducing voice rang in his ears.
"They also said how the connection is so stable. I didn't expect that you actually found a city-level building complex. But this is expected and expected, huh."
