Chapter 107 The Day of Doomsday (Ten)
[Great, I rushed to the forum. Do you know how I survived without the forum?]
[When was the last time you looked at the forum?]
[To be honest, if the system hadn't said that the forum had a malfunction, I would really have thought that it was Sister Qiao who caused the forum to crash.]
[After all, he was the one who single-handedly pushed players to download the anti-fraud APP]
[I went to the forum and took a look. Everyone was very excited. Hahaha. The post celebrating the return of the forum alone has been voted up nearly a thousand times.]
[So it has something to do with Yu Guo? I still want to eat Yu Guo’s melon. Is there any kind person who can feed me a bite?]
[Wait, dear friend, don’t just take a look at this, look further down. There are several more posts below that seem to be discussing this instance, and there are quite a few people discussing it.]
【? What is there to discuss? There are many doomsday copies like this. Wasn't there a zombie copy before that bit the players and made them scream? There are also copies that allow players to kill each other. Is it because of the players who participated?】
[I saw it too, and I summarized it for two reasons : one is that there are quite a few players coming into this instance, with more than 50 known players so far, and half of the restrictions have been lifted; the other is that this instance is divided into different zones, with players landing in zones three to six. As a result, someone just found in the live broadcast room of a player in zone four that some shadows in zone four have joined forces with the infected and have been obstructing the players.]
[The infected are ghosts from other worlds, right? Players are also considered humans in this world, so isn’t it normal to attract ghosts? Wait, the shadows and the infected are teaming up?! ]
[I read the above post three times over and over again, and finally understood what you were talking about. The infected are equivalent to ghosts from other worlds, right? How did Shadow persuade them?]
[I don't know. Anyway, there are shadows who are pointing out the players to the infected. Some players have been infected and replaced by shadows, and they are looking for other uninformed players.]
[Just now I was still impressed by the shadow of Li Qiang teaming up with other players, but I didn’t expect that the shadow in Area 4 was smarter and directly teamed up with the infected]
[I took a look at the list of people in the forum who were suspected of cooperating with the infected in the fourth district. How come there was also that crappy teammate I met before? I remember that guy was not smart. I had to lead him. How come Shadow was so smart?]
[No, how come they can even take down the infected? Are these shadows really not strengthened? Dull.jpg]
[I heard that some natives in Area 4 have also set their sights on players. After all, some infected people in this world are in opposition to players. As long as there are players around, there is no need to worry about being harassed by the infected people.]
[Ah, what kind of hell is this for the players in zone 4? I can only say that the landing point depends a lot on luck. I should do more good deeds in the future.]
[Fortunately, it’s only four districts]
Since he had already decided to go to District 9, Qiao Yuan naturally started thinking about how to get there.
It was definitely impossible to walk there. The first thing Qiao Yuan thought of was a car, but she quickly ruled out this idea. After all, the only few cars on the streets were abandoned due to various problems, and the subway stations and train stations in the city were empty and did not seem to be in operation.
Qiao Yuan was still lost in thought, but beside her, an invisible war filled with smoke had already begun.
When Yu Guo first joined, Song Yanchi was very worried that he would take his place. Now it seems that his worry is not unreasonable. It was fine when looking for clues, but once they were in a hurry, he would stick to Qiao Yuan by relying on his gender advantage, and would tiptoe on her shoulders from time to time, and would get so close to her when talking. Although he only had one eye left, his eyes were still glued to Qiao Yuan: "Wow, your skin is really good, is this what they call delicate skin..."
"Can I touch this teardrop mole?"
Fortunately, Qiao Yuan had two arms, so Song Yanchi was able to take up another position to fight back: "Even paper can't be broken by a breeze."
"What are you touching? Do you know how many bacteria there are on human hands?"
Yu Guo: "Qiao wants you to see him..."
Song Yanchi: "Sister, look at her..."
Qiao Yuan: "So who are you looking at?"
With just one sentence, Yu Guo and Song Yanchi's attention was successfully shifted to each other.
Looking at Yu Guo whose attention had temporarily shifted away from him, Qiao Yuan lowered his eyes and hid the contemplation in them.
The reason why she agreed to come with Yu Guo was simple. Qiao Yuan felt that Yu Guo was a little strange, so she decided to observe him. She could feel that Yu Guo was too close to her, but fortunately Song Yanchi maintained the balance and attracted half of Yu Guo's firepower.
Sheng Guiye, who was walking in front, also heard the noise. He frowned, glanced at them, and then quickly looked away.
Qiao Yuan had gotten used to this. Although Sheng Guiye was walking with them, after Yu Guo and Song Yanchi occupied the seats on her left and right and started arguing with each other, he walked directly in front of them. He looked back several times and just looked coldly to see if they were following him. But only this time, he frowned.
Yu Guo and Song Yanchi naturally also felt this gaze, making Sheng Guiye an example for Yu Guo and Song Yanchi to attack each other and learn from each other.
However, seeing Sheng Guiye's reaction, Song Yanchi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. With the previous experience of Yu Guo, he was worried that Sheng Guiye would follow him with ill intentions. Fortunately, it seems that the other party is much more normal than Yu Guo, especially keeping a distance from Qiao Yuan, which makes him very satisfied.
Fortunately, at this moment, Sheng Guiye found a bus stop, and finally Yu Guo and Song Yanchi stopped arguing temporarily.
Qiao Yuan had come across bus stops before when searching on other streets, but they were all abandoned. The waiting seats were covered in dust, and the small advertisements stuck on them seemed to have not been cleaned for a long time.
The bus stop that Sheng Guiye discovered was completely different. The waiting seats were clean and spotless, and there were no messy advertisements on the bus stop sign, only a simple bus route map.
Qiao Yuan noticed that the operating date written above was after the beginning of the doomsday, which means it is still in operation.
After reading it, Yu Guo turned around and said to Qiao Yuan with a smile, "There is only one route, and there are only two trains a day, one at 6 am and one at 6 pm, but it can eventually reach District 9."
"Anyway, there must be something wrong with the buses operating at this time, just like the Xinxin Hotel. It depends on whether we take it or not. I'll listen to my sister." After Yu Guo spoke, Song Yanchi said without giving in.
Yu Guo: "I will listen to Qiao Yuan as well."
Qiao Yuan: "I choose to sit."
After finally finding a means of transportation to District 9, Qiao Yuan certainly couldn't give up.
Although they had said in advance that they would follow Qiao Yuan's choice, after hearing what the other party said, Yu Guo and Song Yanchi said almost in unison: "I'll sit too."
Although Sheng Guiye didn't say anything, it was obvious that he had decided to take the bus since he didn't leave the bus stop.
Yu Guo frowned slightly, looking helpless: "So I have to pay for the fare?
"Although I still have one eye, I still want to keep it to see Qiao Yuan."
Originally, Song Yanchi was ready to pretend he didn't hear the first half of Yu Guo's words, but after hearing the second half, he couldn't help but say, "...Why don't you just pay it? It sounds the same as if you didn't pay."
Just as the two were about to quarrel again, the sound of an engine roaring was heard, attracting the attention of everyone present.
The car is coming.
A black bus lay in front of them like a panting beast.
From the outside, this is a very ordinary bus with red lines on the side. Looking inside through the window glass, it is not full and there seem to be a few empty seats. Except for the fact that it does not indicate which route it is, everything seems normal.
While Qiao Yuan was observing , the bus door slowly opened towards them, accompanied by a sound like a sigh of relief.
The bus has two doors, and Qiao Yuan and her friends were standing at the front door, close to the driver's cab.
But as the bus door opened, Qiao Yuan found that the isolated driver's cab was empty and there was no driver.
Others also noticed this. Although they had a premonition about the abnormality of the bus, they still showed puzzled expressions when they saw the empty driving seat.
Yu Guo directly expressed everyone's thoughts: "Why is there not even a ghost?"
Qiao Yuan also agreed in her heart. Fortunately, she already knew that this was the end of the world, otherwise she would think that the technology in this world had advanced to the point of having perfect driverless technology.
There was a red clock hanging next to the cab. Qiao Yuan took a look and found that it was 5:55 in the afternoon.
The car arrived five minutes early, obviously waiting for someone, and was supposed to depart at six o'clock.
After getting on the bus, everyone finally saw the ghost that they had not been thinking about.
Rows of relatively new seats were neatly arranged, with a few figures scattered here and there, as if they had heard footsteps approaching, and some had already looked up. When Qiao Yuan looked in through the window, he thought it looked like a person, but when he got up, he realized that it was just a resemblance.
Some of the facial features seemed to be randomly combined, and each one was not where it should be. There was also a man wearing sunglasses with a serious expression. Everything seemed normal, but it was not until the other party took off his sunglasses by chance that Qiao Yuan discovered that there was a string of small eyes next to his eyes, all looking at Qiao Yuan and others. He gave people the feeling of being the center of attention.
There was also an old woman sitting on the seat with her eyes closed, but if you looked closely, you would find that she only had the upper body. Starting from the waist, the entire lower body was missing, replaced by something that looked like bloodshot.
Obviously, these are all infected people, and several of them have already started discussing: "Tsk tsk tsk, it's human again. I can smell the scent of human flesh from a long distance away."
"When was the last time you ate?"
"Can you leave those two girls to me? I like to eat those with delicate skin and tender meat."
"Ah, if only these people could become my collection..."
There was malice in the voice.
Of course, there are also some friendly-sounding voices: "Sit here, it's safe here."
“My place is empty too…”
However, after discovering that these infected people did not seem to have any intention of attacking them for the time being, Qiao Yuan turned a deaf ear to these words and searched the bus with her eyes. Finally, she found the rules of the bus in a corner:
1. Passengers can ride for free and park by pressing the button next to their seat
2. The maximum passenger capacity is 45. Please allow one passenger to sit in one seat. For your safety, please do not leave your seat at will during the journey, and do not attack other passengers when parking.
3. Do not sit in the driver's seat
…
Although there are more than a dozen more items to come, for the four of them, the first three are enough for them to understand what they want.
When Yu Guo saw the first one, she happily shook her ponytails. She first tugged at the corner of Qiao Yuan's clothes, then deliberately said to Song Yanchi, "Look, it's a free ride! Did you see it clearly?"
Song Yanchi snorted, "Childish."
Sheng Guiye lowered his eyes: "It does look very likely that it is unmanned. It would be great if we could take it apart and study it."
Qiao Yuan: "I can't sit in the driver's seat..."
"Then can I stand in the driver's seat?"
