Chapter 334: The Deceptive System

She thought about it, and still withdrew back to the regional channel to peek.

"What on earth is the situation now, the whole court of civil and military officials, and not a single one who understands anything?"

"You even became emperor, you stinky powerless one, did you get permission from our Longhu Association?"

Besides these useless posts, the regional channel still has some smart people.

"Damn! Turn the car lights on quickly, there's a huge fog outside! Wait, not a huge fog, this fog is like steam!"

"What's the upstairs chatter? What fog or not? How come I didn't see any?!"

"I told you to turn on the lights and you didn't! You keep shouting without lights! Get lost!"

"So this must be the disaster this time? But… what harm does this fog actually cause? Any brave souls go out to test?"

"What do you mean 'not brave'? Since you said that, brother, I'll just get off the vehicle and take a look!"

Where did that brute come from?

All the complaining aside, Xinxue, like everyone else, waited for that person's reply.

Under everyone's gaze, the person finally spoke up again: "Nothing happened at all, health value is stable, this is the disaster? You guys are mistaken, right?"

Health value is stable?

Xinxue narrowed her eyes and spotted something off.

She was paying special attention to health value because she knew the disaster was poisonous fog; this brute—if he truly is a brute—why did he think of health value first?

The others on the regional channel didn't understand the disaster; hearing him say that, some remained skeptical, others relaxed.

"Brother leads the way! So great! Since there's no impact, I'm relieved, I'll go down and take a look..."

After a while.

"I*******, the one who said health value is stable? I only went down for a minute and health value dropped thirty points! That's what you call stable? You stable you***"

Sure enough, there's a problem.

Xinxue originally thought the cheating player would disappear anonymously or crawl away, but unexpectedly, the other side even…

"Oh? What's up? I went down wearing a gas mask, you all aren't without one, right?"

Those words ignited the channel like a powder keg; the regional channel erupted with insults!

Xinxue looked closely, "Ah, anonymous user, no wonder they're so bold."

The desired information was obtained; no need to watch the regional channel any longer.

Xinxue compiled the info and posted it in the group chat, then lay on the little bed she set up.

She didn't have a big bed like Lao Da, but she did receive a mattress; though it's just a single mattress, she no longer had to sleep on the hard carriage.

Xinxue is a content person; as she thought, a smile curled at her mouth.

A night of good dreams.

The next day Cheng Shuili woke up to a group chat that had already exploded.

"What's up with this disaster? 4 a. m.! I woke up choking..."

"You're awake too? I thought I was the only one who couldn't breathe. Just put on a gas mask, open the car door a bit, and get some fresh air."

"Sigh, I dreamed a ghost was choking my neck, it scared me awake, and even after opening my eyes the suffocation remained! Luckily there was the group chat, I quickly opened the car door."

"Remember to wear a gas mask. Xinxue said the outside fog deducts thirty health points per minute; without a mask, a few minutes down there and you're dead."

"I keep feeling I forgot something… Hey? Didn't Lao Da put something up in the warehouse? Something like oxygen, damn! I didn't take it seriously then, but now thinking about it, Lao Da is practically a divine calculator!"

"Aaa!! It really exists, that emergency oxygen circulation device! Damn, why did only a few of us get suffocated awake? Everyone else seriously followed Lao Da, took the thing down then, and now it's probably still dreaming! I'm truly impressed!"

"Stop talking, please stop, so embarrassing… Can we delete the chat record? I don't want Lao Da to see it."

"Do you think this is WeChat or QQ? If you don't want to send it, just retract it."

Cheng Shuili: "......"

In short, the emergency oxygen circulation device was indeed used.

She didn't hurry to freshen up; instead she opened the regional channel and looked.

Besides the few points Xinxue summarized yesterday, there was the most important one: after four hours, the vehicle's oxygen will run out, and the car doors must be opened for ventilation. However, once the doors are opened, the vehicle's protective effect fails, health value continues to drop, but closing the doors stops the decline.

So…

Players without the emergency oxygen circulation device either ventilate with gas masks or just watch their health value bounce up and down.

Yes, this health drop caused by abnormal environment will gradually recover with the body's metabolism.

They, of course, don't want this, but there truly is no other way.

Cheng Shuili felt a bit wistful and turned into a savior, promoting the outsourcing of the emergency oxygen circulation device on the regional channel!

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: 100 Game Coin! Can't buy, lose out; can't be tricked! Solve the poisonous fog hazard right now! Bring…

"Again, again, why does Wu Ya always have a blueprint that can handle this?"

"Hey, just tell me whether to craft it or not, I'm really impressed."

"Actually it's pretty good, think of those zones without these blueprints; you really can't spend money to get them!"

"Never mind, craft one first, I don't want to see my health value swing up and down."

The crafting task was assigned to 001; Cheng Shuili went to freshen up first.

It can be foreseen that today will be busy as well.

Eight o'clock sharp.

The system finally explained what happened yesterday afternoon: "Hello everyone! Long time no see, I really didn't expect so many people are still alive now."

Cheng Shuili no longer wanted to complain; while listening, she also helped 001 process a few orders it couldn't identify.

"I believe some elite players have already noticed yesterday afternoon's anomaly! Since noon, no supply crates have appeared on the road! But this time it's not any trap of ours, nor any punishment we prepared! This time, it's a gift we give to all elite players, a piece of our goodwill!"

Goodwill?

Cheng Shuili raised her eyebrows lightly; if it were truly goodwill, they should have explained the situation in advance.

This hypocritical system!

In Black Feather's group chat here, the insiders have all started swearing, while over in the regional channel they're still asking why they're not elite players.

There are just too many things to complain about; Cheng Shuili, looking at those posts, was momentarily speechless, so she simply turned off the regional channel.

"Everyone should have noticed how things are different now compared to before, right? We now have power and territories; this Road Survival Game will, starting today, officially shift to team competition!"
