About a minute and a half, the first glass of water comes out freshly.

It is still so sweet and thirst-quenching, giving people a smooth feeling like walking out of a steam room.

Somo took a sip and took out the map to look at it.

After a day of adaptation yesterday, several people have basically become resistant to high temperatures.

The journey in the desert is also faster, and I can walk about five kilometers in about an hour.

Judging from the current coordinates, there are less than thirty kilometers left to the dividing line.

Optimistically, we can arrive before dark in the afternoon.

"I don't know if this gray dot is a veteran or a male gunman. He doesn't look slow at all."

Staring at the light point above that has moved nearly 80 kilometers away.

Sumo nodded secretly.

Fortunately, before the knockout round started, those life and occupations were screened out.

Otherwise, even if you can fight all the way to the main event, you will still have to face the problem of not getting out of this desert.

Qi Jie, old Taoist, male gun brother.

All three of them are on the scavenger route, and the two special bonuses can ensure that they will not fall into the rare route in the early stage.

In the future, the gap between the routes will be smoothed out by the early accumulation, and basically there will not be much disadvantage.

Goo..goo.

While I was thinking about it, I heard a sound in my abdomen.

People are iron, rice is steel.

After all, being full of water can only sustain life and cannot provide the calories needed by the human body.

In particular, although route ability brings extremely powerful physical fitness to humans, it also amplifies caloric requirements several times.

Just after not eating for a day, Sumo could already feel a significant loss of physical strength, and his mood began to become a little uncontrollably irritable.

If we still can't find food today, let alone 60 kilometers tomorrow, even 40 kilometers will be a problem.

"Tomorrow will be a small natural disaster. No matter what, we have to find something to eat today."

Create another bottle of water and fill it in the water collector.

Sumo stood up and opened the zipper.

"Go in and drink, don't take it out."

"Obviously." Seeing a bottle full of water, Qi Jie felt a little embarrassed when he spoke.

I couldn't wait to get into the hot tent and drink it.

That’s called comfort!

The sluggish energy is also nourished by water, and it no longer looks tired in the morning.

The half-hour break is over.

Looking at Qi Jie who was excitedly demolishing the tent, the three people in the distance were a little confused.

"What's going on? Does Brother Qi have the ability to quickly recover his physical strength?"

"It's strange, he was so tired just now, why is he so energetic after half an hour?"

"Water, I want to drink water."

Guan Mao and Zhang Jun took advantage of the bonus from the Wandering Fighter route and had some free time to chat.

Xi Ruyue next to me, because the route is an auxiliary type, is now tired and a little distracted.

I was able to hold on thanks to following Somo.

If a person is alone in this endless desert, he is probably not far away from being forcibly teleported by the game.

"How about asking Su Shen for help and seeing if we can trade some water?" Guan Mao suggested.

But Zhang Jun then denied it, "It's useless. What they collected in the morning has probably been finished by now."

"We don't have many points, so we can either keep them and buy them from merchants, or"

Pointing to the ground, the implication was very obvious.

Instead of using your precious points to directly exchange for fresh water, you might as well see if you can exchange them for a water collection device.

After all, the former is a one-time deal, while the latter can last for many days.

"Let's go, the break is over."

"I just looked at the map. If nothing unexpected happens, we should reach the border of the first stage of the desert in another thirty kilometers today."

The three of them were all a little sluggish. Seeing this, Sumo came over and said softly.

I have to say that the trick of looking at plum blossoms to quench thirst is really useful.

When she heard thirty kilometers and the boundary of the first stage, Xi Ruyue's distracted eyes suddenly focused.

"Phase one?"

"Yes, the lines on the map show that every 120 kilometers should be the boundary of a stage."

"The area we are stepping on right now is bare and useless."

Speaking of this, Sumo changed his tone:

"But it is likely that in the next stage, the surface will no longer be so empty. There will be plants and some materials that we can use."

"Maybe traders will show up and bring a wave of supplies."

Upon hearing this, the three people's eyes were filled with anticipation.

But when I heard the word businessman, my expectation suddenly turned into longing, and then into desire.

Yesterday they only bought three bottles of water, leaving a balance of 350 points.

After completing the mission of Walking Through the Scorching Sun, the points increased by 20, and now there are 370 points in the account.

Enough to buy seven bottles of water!

After calculating this number, a rare stream of body fluid appeared in the mouth.

The disappeared physical strength seemed to reappear, and the body stood up as driven by thoughts.

"Let's go."

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Soma said no more.

The group of people covered their heads with coats, formed a long line and set off again.

With full expectations, the rest of the journey went extremely smoothly.

Even compared to that in the morning, the temperature at noon has already exceeded the 40 mark.

The speed of the three of them did not slow down at all, and even sped up a bit.

With everything going so smoothly, it was only half past four in the afternoon.

After reaching the top of a sand dune, Somo suddenly stopped, with a strange look in his eyes.

"arrive!"

"Sure enough, the line is drawn here!"

arrive?

The exhausted three people under the sand dune couldn't think of conserving their energy at this time, and hurriedly gritted their teeth and rushed up.

Look into the distance.

Wherever you look, the desert in the distance has indeed changed.

In the boundless yellow, there are finally some unclear black dots mixed in.

When the wind blows, the small dots still flicker, like plants moving in the wind.

And right at the border between the two places, a figure of three people longing for each other was standing there.

It's a businessman!

"Oh my god, if he doesn't show up again, I suspect I will be forcibly teleported by the game!"

Xi Ruyue sat down and laughed blankly.

It was only one day, but she felt like it was like a year.

Unlike the lack of water in the early days of the wasteland, you can still passively survive in the shelter and think of ways.

In this desert of fire.

As contestants, they must actively push themselves to keep moving forward and challenge their physical and mental limits.

The concepts of the two are completely different, and the pain of the latter is far ten times or a hundred times greater than that of the former!
