War in Heaven

The two who just landed on Mars stood in the sand of the sky, looking through the transparent shield of the helmet face of the spacesuit to look at the dunes in front.

Unlike the common yellow sand on the earth, this piece of sand has a touch of orange, which should be due to the hidden hematite beneath the sand.

The gravity of the surface of Mars is one-third of the Earth, and moving here is much easier than on Earth. Lin Chi tried to move forward and jumped to the sand four meters away.

After observing it on the sand and determining that there are no obvious enemies nearby, Lin Chi finally breathed a sigh of relief, opened his skill bar and inventory, and began to confirm the situation in this game:

The weapons that I carry are still weapons and equipment that can be used in modern maps, and the familiar names in the skill bar.

However, Lin Chi noticed that a new status appeared in his status bar:

notorious:

In Mars, full of exiles, the lower the prestige of the player, the more the criminals will fear you.

"Rely on, so the prestige is negative because of this..."

Lin Chi muttered, opened the intercom system to contact the science freak who was close at hand, and asked: "What is your prestige value?"

"Negative two hundred and seventy." Frankenstein replied.

"Well, it seems that you are more popular here than me." Lin Chi smiled.

In addition to the "notorious", there is another state, hanging in its own status bar:

Survival needs:

There is very little oxygen in the air of Mars, and the temperature difference on the surface of the planet is extremely high. Players need oxygen and wearable living equipment to survive on the surface of Mars.

Please note that when you are not using equipment and are exposed to Mars outdoors, you will be immediately injured, depending on the local environment. In some locations it may die instantly.

In this way, the broken spacesuit that you got from the spacecraft is also an essential equipment for survival on Mars. However, according to common sense, the life-sustaining equipment on the spacesuit should not be able to operate for a long time.

Before the equipment built into the spacesuit fails, new equipment needs to be found to survive on the extremely harsh Mars.

Thirty teams participating in this game, four of them have already hanged when they landed, including Lin Chi and the Frankenstein team, and the remaining 26 teams.

However, Lin Chi is not worried about the enemy attack at the moment, because looking at it, there are no signs of life around him...

- How did the criminals who had landed here before survived?

While thinking about it, Lin was turning back to the wreckage of the burning spacecraft and looking for the remaining equipment available in the spacecraft.

The black smoke that caught the face obscured the line of sight, but the smell of pungent was isolated from the spacesuit. Lin Chi and the Frankenstein searched for the wreckage of the spacecraft, and finally found two small solar energy that were still intact. solar panels.

The length and width of the board are about one meter. Lin Chi put the spacesuit gloves on the tempered glass board, and several items were introduced:

High-energy solar panels:

Item level: excellent.

In areas with sunlight, the panel can provide a small amount of electrical energy.

"It is a dead end to use love to generate electricity on the surface of Mars. Even if it is powered by solar power, it may not survive."

After reading the introduction of the item, the two decisively picked up a battery board, used the ropes on the board, and carried the battery board behind them, and then picked up the small backpack necessary for the player from the sand pit next to it.

Looking for a while in the wreckage of the spacecraft, the two scavengers finally left the area and began to move toward the north.

In fact, Lin Chi and Frankenstein do not know what is in the north, but under the premise of being completely unfamiliar with the situation, moving forward in one direction is undoubtedly the best choice.

This map, called "The Ruins of Mars," is undoubtedly the largest game map that Lin Chi has ever seen. Now he still doesn't know how big the scope of this map is, but it is absolutely incomparable to other maps.

On the surface of Mars, it should be very difficult to find other players. So... How exactly does this map determine the winner?

Thinking of this, Lin Chi, who is trekking in the sand, asked the science freak around him: "Have you ever seen this picture before?"

"No." The sound of Frankenstein sounded from the headphones: "I was the first time."

"That would be a lot of trouble." Lin Chi squinted and looked at the sand in front.

The orange sand dunes are boundless, and you can't see the end at all. Now, let's not look for the enemy. It is very difficult to find a living person.

- Is this direction of your choice correct? Lin Chi didn't know at all, but soon he noticed a lot of dust on the sand in front.

"what happened?"

When Lin Chi was wondering, he saw an amazing scene:

A huge "MONSTER" desert off-road vehicle with a wheel, galloping from the sand, the metal shell of the car body shines with dazzling silver. Through the front window glass, you can see two people wearing oxygen masks. In front of the off-road vehicle.

Four giant wheels rubbed the sand and sprinkled the orange dust to the rear. The off-road vehicle drove past Lin Chi and the Frankenstein, as if they didn't see them, decisively ignored the existence of the two. Rushing in the direction of the space ship wreck.

"Who are these people?" Lin Chi asked strangely.

The off-road vehicle that can be used on Mars, and the Earth is definitely not a model, it should be a specially improved version. The criminals who were sent to Mars by the broken ship should have no way to make such a thing...

When the car passed by the sand alongside, Lin Chi noticed that the body was painted with the words “Scientific Investigation” and a cross-shaped logo was drawn under the text.

"Is the person of the expedition team?" Lin Chi said his own inference.

"I don't know." Frankenstein turned and looked at the wreckage of the ship that had extinguished the flame. He asked in an icy tone: "Go back and see."

"It's still different." Lin Chi shook his head.

- Even if it is not a leader-level NPC, the guy who can hold a foothold on Mars must have a strong strength. The combat experience in this environment is much richer than Lin Chi and Frankenstein.

Lin Chi knows that if he chases after him, once he fights with those guys, he is likely to be killed directly by the other party.

The person in the car seems to have gone to the spaceship wreck to collect resources. It is the right choice to leave this right and wrong place.

Therefore, Lin Chi also quickly determined the next action strategy:

"Go ahead, leave them alone."

His voice just fell, as if it confirmed his judgment, and a few lines of killing tips popped up:

The player "eats, drinks, and plays" is dead!

The player "stupid young man" has died!

The player "Sinful Hand" has died!

The player "white hair" has died!

The squad "will not name" has been annihilated.

The four players in this squad died almost at the same time, and it was like dying in a spaceship explosion. But the spacecraft carrying the player should have landed all, that is...

"It was killed by those people." The sound of Frankenstein is still cold.

"It is very possible." Lin Chi nodded and agreed.

During the speech, their call was suddenly cut off, and the boring voice of the male anchor of "God of the Gods Radio" once again occupied Lin Chi’s ear:

"Garbage, have you all landed? I heard the explosion nearby, and I am sure that someone will not be able to climb out of the spaceship and reimburse it!"

"As an old predecessor who has arrived here long ago, I would like to remind you of it. Stay away from the 'scientists'! Those who are self-proclaimed scientists are the most dangerous madman on Mars. Don't provoke them, otherwise it is the Virgin. Maria can't save you!"

Realizing that his judgment was confirmed, Lin Chi smiled and said: "I know that is the case."

- Similar to what I inferred. The guys who drove through were exactly the scientists. The criminals called them "scientists" and they were far away from them.

Unlike the criminals who were exiled to Mars, the scientists stationed here should have advanced equipment and build a building suitable for human habitation. It is true that the equipment held by the exiled criminals cannot compete with the "scientists."

The two quickly marched through the thin sands of Mars's air, heading north, and the ruts left by the "scientist" jeep were clearly visible in the sand.

"If we are close to the resident of the scientist, will they be killed by them?" Lin Chi whispered.

"Very dangerous." Frankenstein responded immediately.

The same conclusion was reached, and the two did not continue to follow the imprints left by the wheels, but moved in the opposite direction.

Lin opened the player map, and there are only a lot of sand dunes on the map, and the huge wilderness. Because the area of ​​Mars is too big, the original size map can't display the panorama at all, and it can only show the player's current location. The area is gone.

However, at the northeastern edge of the map, a crack that just appeared attracted Lin’s attention.

- Is that a canyon?

Looking at the "longitudinal line" that crosses the past, Lin Chi frowned slightly. If you are looking for a human settlement, this valley should be a good choice.

The "Scientists" jeep is coming from the northwest, and unless they have winded before coming, they should not come from the canyon in the northeast.

In the canyon, you can avoid the large sandstorms common to Mars, and you can easily build a living room. As long as you move toward the canyon, you may find human traces.

"Go in the direction of the canyon." Lin Chi said.

"Good." Frankenstein gave a positive answer.

The new action target was determined, and the two immediately turned to the canyon and followed the map to the front.

The canyon is at least 20 kilometers away from the sand dunes where they are located. It is conceivable that it will take a lot of effort to walk from here.

On the way to the canyon on foot, Lin Chi also chats with the Frankenstein around him from time to time. However, because the Frankenstein does not like human chatteringly, the dialogue between them can only be described as boring...

Through the sky of orange sand, going to the distant canyon, they walked for an hour, and when Lin Chi had begun to get bored with the unchanging scenery in front of him, finally there was a little turn:

"what is that?"

- On the sand in front, something is refracting the dazzling bright golden light, which looks a bit like the light that flashes from the legendary equipment.

Lin Chi and the Frankenstein looked at each other and moved quickly on the weaker Martian dunes in a semi-jumping manner, and soon came to the side of the light. Then I was disappointed to discover that it was not a legendary equipment, but a man who fell on the sand and flashed out of the clothes behind him.

The guy wore a lighter suit, which was much smaller than the spacesuit of Lin Chi, but it was also completely enclosed, a bit like the protective suit worn by the defense forces when dealing with chemical weapons.

The flash logo on the back of this person's clothes is very eye-catching. Obviously, this guy's clothing comes with a sign that attracts the attention of others. It should have been expected that accidents may occur, so that others can come to search and rescue.

- What is the situation with this product?

Since he still hasn't figured out whether the other party is a robbery criminal or a "scientist", Lin Chi is very cautious at this time, carefully walked over, stretched out the thick right hand protected by the space suit, and patted the other's back.

The guy didn't move, and there was no reaction at all. It seemed to be really faint.

Lin Chi turned the other person's body over, through the transparent mask on the guy's helmet, saw a dark face, the man who was unconscious in the Martian desert, an adult black man, his dark brown body On the chest of the coat, the red eagle pattern with open wings is painted.

"Like a criminal." Frankenstein commented coldly.

"I think so too." Lin Chi smiled.

It’s not like a well-equipped “scientist” to look at this guy’s dress. Realizing that the other party and himself should be the same passers-by, Lin Chi stretched out his hands again and shook his shoulders hard, trying to use the most primitive means to wake up the faint idiot.

"Hey, wake up..."

Although knowing that the other party could not hear his voice through the protective clothing, Lin Chi muttered a subconsciously.

About a minute later, when Lin Chi planned to use a more rude means to wake up the person, the man who had been closed and closed suddenly blinked.

Through the mask of the spacesuit, Lin Chi saw that the other person opened his mouth and seemed to be talking about something. After a while, the guy’s gaze finally focused on the two people in front of him.

"..."

The man opened his mouth and said something excited, but the air was still unusually quiet, and no sound could be heard.

Lin Chi stretched his hand and knocked on his helmet. The man who just woke up finally recovered, turned on the communication device, and began searching for nearby bands.

A minute later, the voice of the guy finally reached the ears of Lin Chi and Frankenstein:

"Thank you! I am a nearby resident, my name is Sasha!"
