Chapter 1220 The upper and lower halves are completely different!(2/2)
Even the number of small volcanoes distributed in the fourth stage is not much different, and there is no terrain advantage.
Then, Yuli focused on looking for the distribution and number of oases, and there was also not much difference.
Even the oasis in the first half of the area is closer to the starting point of the fourth stage!
"This is strange."
Yuri couldn't help but murmur in his heart, and quickly zoomed to the fifth stage.
Although the number of remaining contestants in the two half-districts is very different, the progress on the road is very similar.
At noon on the eighth day, there were still many people in the lower half of the area still on the way.
The only difference is.
Most of the contestants in the upper half of the area formed small groups based on territories, or several lone wolves worked together.
In the lower half of the area, there are often thirty or fifty people in a migratory group, and the formation is quite mighty.
"How did they get together?"
Yuri was suddenly a little surprised.
In a sense, teaming up is a good thing, but it is not as easy as imagined when everyone is in a competitive relationship.
After all, due to the limitations of the game, each mutual help costs points.
"Wait a minute. Why are there aliens here?"
"Damn it!"
Seeing that there were four alien races in a small human group, Yuri's expression suddenly turned ugly.
At this moment, he was thinking a lot in his mind, and even thought about the plot of human beings and aliens having a secret communication for a long time.
Do these guys maintain their numbers by cooperating with foreign races?
Aren't they afraid of being seen by the audience above and labeled as human spies?
"Brother, I asked you, can you stop making such noises and scare me?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded from the side.
Yuri turned around and saw a spectator with an oriental face, floating high in the sky watching the battle.
Unlike him, this man seemed to be accustomed to the situation below, and there was no expression of surprise on his face.
"These contestants are mixing with foreign races. How is this allowed?"
"What's wrong with this?" Another person came over, this time a woman with a Western face.
Facing Yuri's performance, both of them were speechless.
"Fighting is not allowed in the main race ahead. In order to reach the finish line, is there any problem with the short-term cooperation?"
Have a question?
Yuri was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer this question.
"Can"
"Don't worry, if these alien races weren't quick on their feet and able to transport low-priced fresh water to more places, how many of our human competitors might have been eliminated."
"Yes, look at how miserable the top half is. More than 200 people have been eliminated."
Low price fresh water?
Ship to more places?
Suddenly hearing the conversation between the two, Yuli was startled, as if he had realized something.
He lowered his head and looked down, and sure enough, four aliens came to this human team, carrying several buckets on their bodies.
The surrounding humans kept coming forward, taking out bottle after bottle of fresh water.
"How do you sell this water?"
Yuri licked the corner of his mouth, and the memory of being dehydrated for seven consecutive days suddenly came back to his mind.
If you put yourself in their shoes and ignore the difference in status, there is not much difference between these four aliens and those two profiteers.
"Water is quite expensive. Five hundred milliliters costs 40 points."
"How many?"
When he heard the words "very expensive", Yuri showed a look of understanding.
But when he heard the numbers clearly, he shook his head decisively, thinking he was hallucinating.
Forty points for a bottle of water, co-authored by an alien for charity?
This is cheaper than the merchants in the first stage. Is it possible that their water is produced with special abilities?
"Forty, but the price was just reduced today."
"It was sold for 70 points the day before yesterday, and it was sold for 50 points yesterday. Today it has been reduced to 40 points."
Buzz.
After confirming that he heard correctly, a loud rumbling sound suddenly sounded in Yuli's mind.
He couldn't believe it, but judging from the natural expressions of the two people beside him.
He knew very well that the other party had no need to lie to him and no reason to lie to him.
This water really costs 40 points a bottle!
The price is less than half of the two profiteers in the upper half.
No, according to the price just placed at the auction, it’s not even enough.
one third!
The price of one bottle of water in the upper half can actually buy three bottles of water in the lower half?
For a moment, Yuri somewhat understood why there was such a disparity in the number of eliminations between the upper and lower halves.
The most important fresh water in the desert can be supplied at this price in the lower half of the area.
Even if Cosim, a stupid pig, comes over, he can easily lead the four of them to the finish line!
"Where does this water come from?"
Trembling, Yuri asked another crucial question.
From the rough observation just now, he did not see any obvious difference between the upper and lower half areas. Obviously, the game did not provide special treatment, and there could not be wells producing fresh water in the lower half area.
If this water is generated by the special ability of the alien race, then this competition is simply too unfair.
Humans will have huge disadvantages at the beginning, and these disadvantages will affect the subsequent terrain all the way.
"Ah? You don't know this either?"
After confirming that Yuri was not lying, the two looked at each other.
"It doesn't matter if you didn't watch the battle, don't you watch the World Channel at all?"
"To tell you the truth, I am actually a contestant, and I was eliminated from the top half not long ago." After thinking about it, Yuli decided to tell the truth.
There is nothing shameful about this. After all, he was able to enter the main draw not because of good luck, but because of his hard power.
As for quitting, it was not for personal reasons, it was purely because of captain Cosim's decision.
"Ah, you are a contestant?"
"That makes sense. The upper half of you must not know about the lower half."
When they heard that Yuri was a contestant, the contempt they had felt immediately disappeared and replaced with expressions of emotion.
Those of them who were watching the game felt that the first half was miserable, let alone the people involved in the first half.
"Even if we don't tell you the source of this water, you can actually guess it yourself."
"Su Shen?" Yuri was stunned, and said the name with some difficulty.
If we want to talk about who has the ability to become the final winner in this competition, it is certainly Somo among the human community.
"Of course, besides Su Shen, there are other contestants with this ability. You don't really think that a little alien can be so powerful in this competition, do you?"
After receiving affirmative answers from the two of them, he didn't wait to ask again.
"You contestants should be able to change the perspective at will. All questions can be understood by going to the oasis on the edge of the desert." Raising their hands, the oriental-faced audience pointed to the finish line.
"Thank you."
Yuri's heart tightened, and he didn't care to continue the conversation, so he quickly chose to change his perspective.
His intuition told him that the great opportunity Carlos mentioned might be in that oasis.
However, when the perspective changed, the last huge oasis in the lower half of the area became clear before our eyes.
I saw the huge camp and the lively scene created by the humans and aliens coming in and out.
Even though Yuri was mentally prepared, he was still stuck in the air like a piece of wood.
