Chapter 681
The veteran players who had been speeding all the way finally caught up with Lin Ye and the other two.
"Ling, Brother Ling..."
"Wait,"
"I, we are willing to use... Eerie Coins to buy some water..."
The price of water here at Lin Ye's must be cheaper than the water at the rest station, right!
"Water can be given for free, but I have one condition,"
Lin Ye said to the five people who were panting.
Veteran players have an advantage in physical fitness. Besides attribute points, props, and Eerie items, Lin Ye also believed they definitely exercised specifically to increase their physical fitness daily.
Veteran players who can accept the invitation of Eerie Games to become Eerie players are all mentally prepared and have high self-control to improve their strength.
And those players who joined Eerie Games simply because it was fun—these players have no possibility of passing too many Eerie missions.
"What condition, Brother Ling, just say it."
"Ingredients."
"Ingredients?"
What ingredients?
What ingredients do they have?
"For the assembly projects later involving cooking, I need you to provide the ingredients you possess."
As the words fell, several veteran players understood Lin Ye's meaning.
Gourmet Sports Assembly,
It can be fully predicted that future projects will involve cooking duels, and cooking inevitably requires ingredients, and the organizer is highly likely to set a threshold on ingredients.
Lin Ye had already thought of this early on and started preparing.
They are also veteran players, but they really hadn't considered things so far ahead; it can only be said that Lin Ye being able to survive in Eerie Games until now is really not luck.
"I have no problem; I can provide a portion of the ingredients our group obtained,"
The burly player immediately spoke up.
"I can too."
The remaining few players also agreed.
It's just a portion of the ingredients, not all of them; they can fully accept it.
"Good,"
Lin Ye distributed the water.
He directly poured the water into the huge, nearly empty bucket brought by the veteran players.
"That bucket at the rest station, did those three staff members give you water?"
"How could they, 10 Eerie Coins for a cup of water; how is this different from robbery? Since that's the case, we directly took action to rob them; anyway, the rules didn't say we couldn't rob."
In Eerie Game dungeons, generally, any behavior not explicitly prohibited can be attempted, but one needs to bear the corresponding consequences.
And now, up to now, they hadn't faced any counterattack or retaliation, which also indicated that their behavior didn't violate any taboos.
"How was their strength?"
"Average; the five of us surrounded them from front and back, beating them to a pulp, completely no match,"
The burly veteran player suddenly remembered something and spoke up. "However, under the masks, they weren't human, but dog-headed people."
Not human?
Lin Ye kept it in mind.
'Ta, ta, ta...'
There were also some newcomer players who arrived. Lin Ye distributed a little bit. "If there are newcomer players arriving later, you also distribute some water to them."
Lin Ye finally only kept enough water for the three of them and set off again.
And the veteran players and the newcomer players who arrived all needed a short rest.
"Brother Ling, a good person!"
Newcomer players were moved.
They didn't trust Lin Ye at the time, didn't choose to leave the rest station following Lin Ye's hint, and even behind his back, some people discussed and mocked him for being cowardly, but Lin Ye didn't have the slightest resentment, treated them with a calm heart, and gave them water.
Tasting this tasteless water, several newcomer players only felt their hearts were warm, and the water also became much sweeter.
"Remember, this water isn't drunk for free. If there are ingredients in later projects, you need to set aside a portion of ingredients for us and Brother Ling,"
The veteran players raised their volume and said to these few people.
They took the opportunity to raise the price.
Newcomer players nodded straight away; now they had no reason to refuse. They had just drunk the water given by the veteran players; although it wasn't much, and it wasn't obtained by these few veteran players, the distribution power was in their hands, so they could only endure and accept it.
The short-time sprinting made the group rest on the spot.
A few minutes later, the veteran players recovered a bit and started walking slowly along the path.
Newcomer players also got up one after another and started moving forward.
Thirty kilometers,
They probably haven't even reached eight kilometers now.
The distance to the finish line is still very far; they need to continue to work hard.
And the five veteran players who chased until now hadn't seen their own group and couldn't help but complain.
"The newcomers in our group are really walking fast,"
"We wasted quite a bit of time going back and forth; them walking fast now is actually a good thing for us,"
They wasted at least twenty minutes returning to the plaza to get the two small carts.
"Let's walk as quickly as possible; this brisk walk isn't that simple. We need to leave more spare time."
There must be more difficulties and levels later.
Two hours later,
Lin Ye and the other two had already caught up with more and more teams.
There were several teams that were exactly the teams of the veteran players they met before.
"Ling, Brother Ling... have you seen Brother Aide?"
A golden-haired girl with a slightly sweet appearance, pushed by her other two teammates, took the initiative to ask Lin Ye.
Although Lin Ye didn't show a bad side, he still made many newcomers afraid to take the initiative to contact him. Women generally, especially beautiful women, often have a greater possibility of receiving a good attitude.
"Who is Aide?"
"It's that brown-haired man who is 1.9 meters tall, with a Westerner's appearance, very muscular."
Initially, because of the small carts, the veteran players returned to get the small carts, while the rest of the team moved on. But until now, they hadn't seen the veteran players return, and a third of the time had already passed. If they still didn't return, their hearts would become more and more uneasy.
They all felt that something had happened to the veteran players.
"Oh, them! Met them an hour ago; the distance shouldn't be very far."
"Tha, thanks..."
The golden-haired girl immediately thanked him.
She looked at Nakiri Erina, who was sitting on the small cart resting, a trace of envy flashing in her eyes.
Walking until now, her feet were sore and tired, and the whole sole of her foot felt like it had been stretched open, but she could only grit her teeth and insist on walking forward step by step.
If she can't reach the finish line within the specified time, what will be the ending she faces? She can't imagine.
And that girl could actually sit on a small cart and be pushed forward; that must be really comfortable and easy!
Like her, there were many players who were envious.
Several women with good looks and figures felt they weren't inferior to Nakiri Erina, but why didn't they have this treatment!
Sigh,
Who told them they didn't successfully become a group with Lin Ye!
Nakiri Erina, facing others' gazes, would be shy and embarrassed the first time, but now, she had already become accustomed to it.
Sitting on this small cart is nothing to be embarrassed about.
This crude small cart, here, is a luxury car!
