Chapter 204: Survival Game in the Apocalypse (33)

After leaving the message, Xie Yang took a piece of Soap and went to the Cockpit washroom to wash her hands and face, comb her hair, and spray on perfume.

After finishing meticulously, she cleared her throat and opened the Treasure Chests.

【Congratulations to player GY for obtaining Gold Coin*200, Supply Island Dungeon Secret Key*2, Towing Slot*2. They have been added to the player's backpack.】

【Congratulations to player GY for obtaining Gold Coin*200, Sea Guide Map*2, Merge Card*2. They have been added to the player's backpack.】

【Congratulations to player GY for obtaining Gold Coin*200, Ship Maintenance Tool Set*2, Merge Card*2. They have been added to the player's backpack.】

After opening the three Treasure Chests, not to mention anything else, the 4 Merge Cards and 2 Towing Slots alone were enough to satisfy Xie Yang.

She clicked on three Merge Cards in succession, merging the small cruise ships of Ming Hao and the others.

Before she had even stepped out of the washroom, she heard joyful cheers from her compatriots outside:

"It got bigger again!"

"Holy crap, holy crap! It's really become a big Cruise Ship now!"

"Wow! There's actually an entire floor that's an open-air swimming pool? With so many of us, we can have a pool party! Hahaha!"

"I feel like this is the correct way to open a cruise ship! 'Maritime Shelter' or whatever—just hearing that makes me shudder."

Xie Yang pulled open the washroom door and met Fu Zhangzheng's smiling eyes.

He was worried, so he had been guarding outside the washroom the whole time.

Xie Yang smiled and said, "I heard everyone's cheers. It seems that after the players in our region finished assembling, the changes to the cruise ship are quite satisfactory. Shall we go take a look together?"

"My pleasure!"

【Good evening, natives of Gaia Star!】

【The moment to reveal the rankings has arrived again! Are you looking forward to it?】

【The Survival Game Season 2—Diversity Fusion Disaster Season has ended. The number of surviving players on Gaia Star is 3,587. The list of survivors is as follows—】

At midnight, following the appearance of the electronic voice, the suddenly bright Sky Screen scrolled to announce the ranking of surviving players after the end of the second season of disasters:

I. Comprehensive Ranking:

1. GY, Dragon Country

2. GY09854, Dragon Country

3. GY06753, Ice Country

4. GY00007, Hop Country

5. GY00059, Sheep Country

6. ……

II. Wealth Ranking:

2. GY09854, Dragon Country

3. GY00442, Beautiful Country

4. GY06753, Ice Country

6. ……

III. Team Ranking:

1. Dragon Country (33)

2. Yellow Flag Country (16)

3. Sheep Country (13)

4. Great North Country (11)

5. Ice Country (10)

6. ……

【Both the Comprehensive Ranking and Wealth Ranking are individual player rankings; the Team Ranking is ranked based on the team with the largest number of players from the same country.】

With this hint, the people looking up at the Sky Screen all understood!

Oh! The number in the parentheses of the Team Ranking refers to the ranking of the team with the largest number of players grouped together from the same country.

Other countries were easy to understand, but what was going on with Dragon Country?

Wasn't it said that only 33 players in total entered the game from there? How are there still 33 people now? And they have assembled into a single team?

Not only is the survival rate as high as 100%, but their cohesion is also number one!

The hell, how did they do that?

In other countries, from presidents and prime ministers down to ordinary citizens, everyone was so jealous their eyes were about to pop out!

Back then, when they learned that despite Dragon Country's vast territory and huge population base, only 33 people were selected to enter the game, they had gloated quite a bit.

Now, two seasons of disasters have passed, and the total number of survivors has dropped to 3,587, a loss of nearly two-thirds.

Countries with high loss rates went from over a hundred people when they first entered the game to single-digit remainders now, causing the Protective Shield of those countries to shrink again and again.

Now, these countries only have a Protective Shield left over the Central Zone of their capital; other regions and cities have long since fallen due to the disasters, and the surviving refugees are frantically pouring into the Central Zone of the capital, leading to constant turmoil and chaos.

Natural disasters and man-made calamities have made the governments of these countries miserable.

Even in countries with relatively lower losses, the loss of several units of the Protective Shield caused cities with lower sea levels to become completely underwater cities under the ravages of heavy rain and tsunamis. Their national territory area was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Only Dragon Country remained firm.

33 players, and not a single one was missing.

How the hell did they do that?

Could it be that this game has a bug? And the cunning (?) Dragon Country people caught the bug and took advantage of it?

Not to mention, the people of Dragon Country were puzzled themselves, but that didn't stop them from being happy:

"Wow! Our country's players are truly amazing! Not a single one of them died!"

"Right! Keep up this pace! Well done!"

"There are only two seasons left! Keep it up, keep it up! Keep it going!"

"Children! Motherland is waiting for your return!"

"It's all up to you! 33 heroes!"

At the Supreme Command Center, Long Yuan summarized a series of data on the second season of the Survival Game disasters based on the report submitted by the secretary-general, and said with relief at the end:

"When they return, we must reward them well! It hasn't been easy! Just looking at the number of Survivors at the end of this season, one knows that this Diversity Fusion Disaster was absolutely hell-level difficulty. Our comrades not only took first and second place on the two individual leaderboards but also kept all 33 people intact; they must have put in hardships and efforts we can hardly imagine!"

All the attendees responded with thunderous applause.

"Chen! It seems it still has to be your Military Department! If your Military Department hadn't sent people this time, I'm afraid the data wouldn't be this beautiful."

Chen Lao laughed heartily: "That's for sure! What kind of extreme environment hasn't our little Fu seen? Rest assured, rest assured! With him leading the team, this batch of our players will definitely return safe and sound, in triumph!"

Outside the government conference room, the people of Dragon Country were also brightly lit at this moment—

"Dad! Mom! I told you that sister is blessed and wouldn't have any trouble! Look, our country's players, all 33 of them are still here!"

"Good, good, good! That's great!"

In the Xie Family, the family of three hadn't gone to sleep before midnight a single day since they learned Xie Yang had entered the game.

They were afraid the Survival Game System would suddenly appear and they would miss important information.

Today, they were still waiting until midnight, thinking there would be no news as usual, and were just about to go to sleep when the Sky Screen suddenly lit up.

Seeing that all 33 players from Dragon Country were still there, the family of three hugged each other in excitement.

"How much longer until this god-forsaken game ends?"

"Two more seasons! Mom, the survival rate this season was very low; I guess the next two seasons should be better, and sister will definitely be able to come back safely!"

"Good, good, good! When the time comes, we'll go to Lucheng together to pick her up!"

Xie Ming went online often, so her information was much more up-to-date than her parents'.

She knew that the residences of all players were being protected by people from the Military.

Furthermore, not a single unit of the Protective Shield in Dragon Country was missing; after the floods in various places receded, traffic fully returned to normal, office workers returned to work, and students returned to school, so even if they wanted to go now, they couldn't.

They could only wait for her sister to return safely before asking for leave to go.

Xu Ninghui, who had also returned to work, had just fallen asleep after being intimate with her boyfriend that night when she was woken up by a suddenly sounding electronic voice.

She threw on a piece of clothing and came to the window, gazing at the suddenly lit Sky Screen, counting the surviving players of Dragon Country while staring at the scrolling data, not knowing whether to be happy or depressed.
