Chapter 94 - magma
After a comfortable hot bath and a more comfortable exercise, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian went to the restaurant to enjoy a buffet.
Although the box lunch was delicious, it was still a bit worse than the sumptuous buffet. After a long day of exhaustion, the two with great appetites ate their stomachs and drank drinks and went to the entertainment hall to play happily.
Interestingly, there is a simulation game machine in the entertainment hall, which is the aircraft simulation training. The two of them played the game and felt the fun of the aircraft in advance.
Games in this world are self-contained, and some simulation games reflect reality. While Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian played, they also collected a lot of information.
After playing, they are waiting for tonight’s show.
Not only are they waiting, thousands of tourists are also waiting, but what is surprising is that they waited until late at night and did not wait for the light curtain of the previous day.
It was not until five o’clock in the morning that a huge light curtain suddenly unfolded in the sky, and the new issue of “Zhuoyuan City Tourism Festival Highlights” was officially staged. The dazzling light and loud sound woke the sleeping tourists one after another.
The big screen in the treasure ship’s room suddenly lit up, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian woke up instantly, and then they saw the edited program playing on the screen in the room.
After patiently watching the show, the two also understood why today’s show was edited so late, because on the second day of the celebration, some tourists were eliminated.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian clearly saw that the power of the iceberg glacier was far greater than they had imagined. Since noon yesterday, from time to time, tourists fell into the glacier because their bodies were frozen and unable to maintain the balance of the plank.
Lucky people can save themselves in time, but more people, without the strength to struggle, gradually sink into the water.
At the same time, conflicts between tourists and tourists broke out, and some tourists brought food with them before the sudden change, and were lucky to save it.
But other tourists are hungry and thirsty, and after their rationality breaks, they ignore the risk of being discovered and violently **** other people’s food. During the fight, it is not an accident that they accidentally fall into the water.
Of course, there are more tourists who don’t complete their missions. Among them, some of them simply gave up because they couldn’t hold on halfway through the row, and were washed back beyond the starting line by the current.
There are still some people who have been insisting, but their strength is not enough. If they move forward two meters, they will step back one meter. It takes a long time and still cannot complete the task.
Less than three hours before the start of the new day celebrations, after it was determined that the tourists who were still in the water could not complete the task, the wooden boards under the tourists separated into pieces, and the tourists fell into the ice water. Failed to change the gradually sinking ending.
The host of the variety show was schadenfreude in a regretful tone. The tourists watching the show seemed to be clenched by an invisible giant hand, their backs were chilled, and their hearts were terrified.
What conspiracy did they fall into, and why did they encounter such a bizarre encounter? What to do after that?
At the end of the program, detailed statistics were released. On the second day of the celebration, a total of 407 people were eliminated, and nearly a quarter of the tourists were eliminated.
The remaining nearly 1,600 tourists, who were still in the mood to rest after watching the show, gathered under the ramp and communicated with each other anxiously and in panic.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had eaten a hearty buffet breakfast, so they simply stayed on the first floor of the treasure ship and waited.
As the time got closer and closer to eight o’clock, the scene near the starting line in the distance began to change. When eight o’clock arrived, a familiar water flow gushed out from the top of the ramp, engulfing all the tourists on the ramp into the water flow and rushing down. in the pool.
Because they were already mentally prepared, no tourists exclaimed this time. Everyone held the wood pulp of the planks. After the water flow stabilized, they desperately climbed up the planks.
This is not a metaphor, but a fact, because today’s scene is the volcanic lava.
The fireworks fired by the treasure ship also confirmed this:
“2333 Zhuoyuan City Tourism Festival Celebrates the Third Day of Carnival: A Journey to Magma!”
Of course, the water flow under the board is definitely not real magma, otherwise the tourists will be melted immediately, but the reddish water flow and the scorching temperature have undoubtedly become the biggest obstacle for tourists.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, who were in the treasure boat, escaped being swept away by the current, and they could step into their own boat directly from the treasure boat after the water flow stabilized.
Ten low-level energy crystals have been installed on their gem ship, filling all the grooves. Driven by these energy crystals, the speed of the gem ship itself is not slow. With a few strokes of the two, the gem boat can dash out for a long time.
Xia Ruize did not forget to row the boat, but his focus was on observing the surrounding environment.
For three consecutive days, from the forest to the glaciers to the magma, the surrounding environment was very real, making people feel as if they were really in it. Xia Ruize observed it carefully every day, just to learn from the experience of creating illusions.
Although he is still not sure whether the surrounding environment is the result of technology or a large-scale illusion, for him, it is real enough to have the meaning of learning.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian were not the first to rush to the starting line. In fact, after the program aired this morning, the tourists all knew that if they fought hard, they might not be able to complete the task, but if they did not fight, they would definitely be eliminated. People who dare to stay outside the starting line to be lazy, all rush to the starting line.
The environment of volcanic magma gives people the feeling that it is hot, very hot, especially hot.
Fortunately, the lava under the boat is not real, otherwise the wooden boards and wood pulp in the hands of the tourists can be kept, but the temperature is high, and a lot of sweating takes away the water in the body, and soon some people are dry because of dryness. Thirsty and chapped lips.
The gem boat can adjust the temperature in a small range when the energy is sufficient to make the users on the boat more comfortable, so Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian are in much better condition than others.
But they only need to look at the air around them distorted by the heat to know how harsh the environment is.
Another difficulty is that today’s current is obviously thicker, and it takes more force to row forward. The tourists who stay behind all complain, but they dare not give up. They can only row the oars while cursing.
Big Tiger and Little Tiger rowed a boat around a group of tourists and approached Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian. Big Tiger greeted with a sweaty smile:
“Brother Cheng, Brother Xia, how are you?”
Dahu rowed the oars in his hands diligently. On the first day he met Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, he felt that these two were good. The performance of the two consecutive days also proved that he was able to win the first place twice, and his strength was extraordinary. So I couldn’t help but approach the two of them, hoping to have a good relationship and help each other out.
“The treasure ship is really good to live in. I hope I can get another rest coupon today.”
Xia Ruize replied with a smile.
Big Tiger was very envious. They couldn’t board the treasure ship last night. They grabbed a room at the hotel on the shore and took a rest.
“Big tiger, how do you think the difficulty is better than before?”
Cheng Huaiqian glanced at the sweat on the tiger’s head and said tentatively.
Dahu and Xiaohu have experienced many missions in the Bamboo and Silk Area, and they should have their own judgments on the difficulty of the mission world. Cheng Huaiqian was a little curious how Dahu thought of the difficulty of this mission world.
