【001】Mysterious world
Zhang Sen opened his eyes again, and a severe headache came like a tide, hitting his mind one after another.
In fact, he was indeed lying on the beach, and the tide surged from time to time, flooding most of his body, and then quickly retreated.
He got up with difficulty, feeling his throat dry and itchy. He couldn't help but press his tongue against his palate, slowly secreting saliva and swallowing it. The fainting headache began to fade.
"here it is……"
He walked to a position where the sea water could not flow up, sat down, grabbed the cold sand with his hands, and looked at the endless blue sea in front of him, his brain couldn't react a little.
At this time, a blue light screen appeared in front of him, and a line of words fell quickly: Infinity War officially began.
In an instant, he realized that he had entered the arena, and his current body was obviously not his original body, but the so-called competitive body.
Then he clicked on the ‘identity’ in the light screen, and the screen turned and immediately showed up information about his virtual identity: "You are a sailor, you have just been attacked by a sea monster. You are taken to an unknown island by the current. You must find a way to survive and return to the mainland."
There is also a picture similar to a comic strip below this line. The first picture is a simple sailor carrying goods on the deck. The second picture is a sailboat wrapped around many tentacles. The third picture is a struggle in the water. The fourth picture is a look of him lying on the beach.
Obviously, this is his identity, a sailor who is in trouble.
From comic strips, he got a lot of information. This is obviously a world similar to the era of the Great Geographic Discovery, which is equivalent to the level of the Earth at the end of the fifteenth century to the beginning of the sixteenth century. Zhang Sen had learned about the ships of that era, which were very similar to the ships wrapped by tentacles in the picture.
As for the existence of sea monsters, it means that this world is not simple. At least its strength is definitely not the level of the era of geographical discovery, and there may still be extraordinary power.
However, Zhang Sen has too little information now, so it is basically impossible to further analyze more content.
Besides, the most important thing he is to survive now. The explanation has been written very clearly. This is an unknown island, and his mission is to live and return to the mainland.
So what he needs to do now is to understand the island and determine his physical condition. He clicks on his physical attributes, which have detailed explanations on the attributes. He is now equivalent to the level of an ordinary person and has a random talent.
Each player will automatically generate a talent when he enters the game. This talent comes completely randomly, and no one can know what his talent is in advance.
Zhang Sen's talent is [people with big stomachs]. Simply put, he is a big eater. He has a larger stomach sac than ordinary people and has a faster digestion ability than ordinary people. Because of this characteristic, as long as there is enough food, his physical strength recovery and injury recovery will be faster than ordinary people.
However, this talent seems to be a bit bad on this deserted island and may become a drag.
After all, this is an unknown desert island, and the difficulty of obtaining food is unknown. No one can guarantee whether they can get enough food. Eating too much may not be a good thing.
Finally, Zhang Sen took a look at his score. The competition has just begun, and his score is undoubtedly 0 points. While he is surviving, he has to find a way to score points, otherwise even if he can survive to the end, the championship will not fall on him.
When he felt that his physical strength had recovered almost, he began to carry out the first step of his work, collecting items that could be used by the beach.
There are a lot of things on the beach, obviously all of them are garbage that comes with the current.
"Do I have a life to start now? I have to pick up all my equipment?"
Zhang Sen bent down and picked up a wooden board that was not corroded by the sea water, and said to himself mockingly.
Next, he collected all kinds of possible things at the beach, a few solid wooden boards, a hemp rope about ten meters long in the water pipe, and a piece of rag that looked like canvas.
After confirming that there was no useful thing on the beach, he wrapped the seemingly useful things with canvas and carried them behind him, looking like a farmer who carried a package to the city to go to the market in ancient times.
Maybe it was because of a person with a big stomach. Now he felt hungry and couldn't wait to find something to eat. He had actually observed the sea water just now and could not see a fish. Now he could only count on the island with the food he needed.
In fact, his mentality is still relatively optimistic now. At least what he needs to face so far is only survival problems, unlike the second session who cheated on him. If he didn't understand the situation at the beginning, he might become cannon fodder and be eliminated in minutes.
He walked towards the forest by the sea, and then found that there were no creatures in the forest, which made him stop and prepare to enter the forest.
There is a problem, there is definitely a problem!
Even if there are terrifying beasts in normal forests, at most there are only a few animals, at least insects or birds will not be completely missing.
But the woods were too clean, so clean that they couldn't even see a caterpillar, which was so wrong.
Zhang Sen took a few steps back and thought about walking along the woods. Sure enough, there was not a single animal or an insect in the woods. He walked for a thousand meters and saw no living creatures.
"I just said, how could it be that simple? It turns out that we are all waiting here." He shook his head and smiled bitterly, then took a few steps back and looked up at the surroundings.
The time is around 2 noon now, and he has plenty of time left. He now has two choices. One is to understand what dangers the woods are and solve them, or to bypass the woods and go further away.
The first option is very risky. After all, if the creatures inside are dragons, with his competitive physical attributes, it is basically equivalent to delivering vegetables. The second one is relatively stable compared to the first one, but there are also risks. If you keep walking in a similar situation, then he will waste a lot of time in vain. Now time is life. If you continue to starve, he will probably become the first player to starve to death in history.
He thought about it and decided to give it a win.
It is definitely not the right choice to enter the woods rashly, and it is definitely not the smart choice to just escape.
So he chose to observe while walking. Anyway, there is still some time left for him now, and it may not be necessary to discover other resources by the beach.
He did not get too close to the woods, but walked in the middle of the beach, both the sea and the woods could see clearly. Even when he walked to a place with a bunker, he tried to throw a piece of wood into the woods, but nothing happened.
For a moment, he doubted whether he was too suspicious, so he doubted that he was suspicious. Perhaps it was just that the eternal country forgot to place insects and birds.
But this idea was quickly overturned by him. Infinity War is one of the best major events in China. How could it be possible to make mistakes in such places?
So he still firmly insisted on his thoughts, continued to observe, and did not act rashly, even if he was hungry, he could not stand it.
After walking for about half an hour, he suddenly found a highly decayed corpse by the sea. The corpse was beyond recognition. Judging from the rotten clothes on his body, it can be guessed that this might be a sailor.
He went straight forward to find the body, but unfortunately he didn't find anything valuable. This bastard was poorer than him, at least his clothes were neat, and the body was less than his underwear.
When he got up and wanted to leave, he suddenly stopped again and a thought flashed through his mind: Since this corpse exists, what is the meaning?
If it is just to make him panic, it is completely unnecessary. Most contestants probably wouldn't be panicked because of a corpse. Could it be that they hope he will survive by eating the corpse?
wrong!
As a large event, it is impossible to encourage players to eat corpses. Although players can do this, this is definitely not the right choice.
Zhang Sen looked down at the disgusting and stinky corpse, and suddenly looked at the woods, could it be...
He squatted down and grabbed the corpse's clothes, and dragged the corpse toward the woods.
The dragging process took fifteen minutes and finally arrived at the edge of the woods. Then he threw the body into the woods with force and retreated quickly.
It can be seen from the naked eye that the corpse seemed to be bitten by something, and it turned into white bones in a blink of an eye. Then even the white bones were bitten. In the blink of an eye, there were only the clothes that the corpse had worn, and there was no blood left behind.
Zhang Sen looked very carefully from beginning to end. At this time, his eyes narrowed slightly. The scene he had just seen kept recalling in his mind, and finally he was sure.
There is some kind of creature invisible to the naked eye in the woods, but this creature is afraid of the sun and can only hide in the shadows of the woods. It is very numerous, gnawing on all creatures that enter the shadows.
After confirming this, Zhang Sen realized that he had to find a way to create a bonfire before night comes. Otherwise, once night falls and there is no threat of sunlight, this creature is likely to ravage the entire island, and even the creatures in the sea are not spared. This is probably the reason why there are no creatures on the seaside, because the creatures in the sea have already formed the habit of not getting close to this sea area.
"Sure enough, the competition is not that simple. I guess the situation of other players is similar to mine. Everyone is running around to survive."
Zhang Sen took a deep breath, and a thought flashed through his mind. Then he pulled out one of the wooden boards behind him and approached the woods carefully.
He raised the wooden board and slapped hard at a branch that poked out of the beach. After this slap, he loosened the wooden board and retreated quickly like a monkey, but his eyes kept staring at the front.
The rustling sound rang out rapidly, as if some animal was struggling, and finally the beach returned to peace.
Zhang Sen walked over carefully and saw a few transparent creatures that looked like fleas, about the size of a lemon, lying on the sand, obviously losing their lives.
As expected!
He just discovered that the hanging branch was incorrect.
Chapter completed!
