Chapter 12 How did the car manage to drive up into the tree?
"Um?"
"A distress signal?"
Lin Xuan glanced at the light blue screen in front of him; a red dot was flashing on it.
This distress signal is a feature present in every bread truck.
Once activated, it will reveal the player's location to the entire game map.
Such behavior is not a good thing in this indifferent gaming world!
Because you have no idea whether the other party is there to help you or to take advantage of your misfortune.
Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, no one will use this "useless" function!
Of course, there's an even bigger theory: that the other party was deliberately luring people over to prepare for a robbery.
But this kind of behavior is undoubtedly the stupidest.
Because you have no idea how many people will come because of this signal, you will only put yourself in a more dangerous situation!
"Brother, should we go over there?"
Lin Xiaoxiao tilted her head and blinked.
"Let's go take a look!"
It wasn't that Lin Xuan was particularly interested in this "distress signal," it's just that he had only glanced at it once.
The location where the red dot is flashing on the screen is the only path I can take to find the treasure.
……
At this time, section K74,
A silver-white van was stuck in an unbelievable position on a large tree beside the road.
The car was positioned with its front facing upwards and its rear facing downwards, the entire vehicle wedged into the tree canopy at a 45-degree angle.
At this moment, there were two people sitting in the car.
In the driver's seat, a girl with pigtails gripped the steering wheel with both hands.
She looked to be eighteen or nineteen years old, with delicate features and fair skin.
She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with an orange cat printed on it, the cat's big eyes wide and round.
Her legs, encased in white stockings, were stretched out straight, her toes pressed firmly against the brake pedal; she dared not move an inch.
In the passenger seat, a girl who looked exactly like him crossed her arms and looked helplessly at the old tree beside her.
The only difference between the two is that one wears pigtails and the other wears a high ponytail.
"Sis, will someone really come to rescue us?"
After a moment of silence, the girl with pigtails glanced furtively at the woman beside her and spoke softly.
Upon hearing this, the girl with the high ponytail turned her head and stared expressionlessly at the girl beside her.
"Su Nian".
She held up one finger. "I just dozed off for ten minutes."
"In just ten minutes, can you tell me how you managed to drive a car up into a tree in those ten minutes?"
"sister……"
Su Nian opened her mouth, a guilty look appearing on her face, "...Um...there's a big slope on that road..."
"Then I stepped on the gas...and the car flew up...and then...and then it went up into a tree..."
Su Ran took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.
The white rabbit on her short-sleeved shirt rose and fell on her chest, its long ears twitching with her breath.
"sister."
"Um."
"Could the person you're talking about be a bad guy?"
Su Ran leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes.
I don't know if the person who came is a bad person.
She paused, then said, "But I know that once we get down there, I'll definitely be the bad guy."
Su Nian curled her white-stockinged legs up on the seat, not daring to speak again.
……
"Huh? The distress signal on the screen is right here, why can't I see it?"
"Could they have already left?"
Looking at the empty road beside him, Lin Xuan frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
He subconsciously glanced at the pale blue screen in front of him.
The distress signal above is still flashing, indicating that the other party has not left the area.
But why, looking around, can't I see even a single car?
"Are you here to rescue us?"
Just then, a hurried voice came from above him.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan slowly raised his head. When he saw the scene above, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
"Is that a van? It looks like a Mercedes!"
Sure enough, there are all kinds of people in this world!
Some people can even drive their cars up into trees!
Although the other driver's skills were somewhat lacking, judging from the van, it seemed to have been upgraded.
The fact that the vehicle could be upgraded in such a short time shows that the other party must have quite a few good items.
Since we've encountered such a "fat sheep," we should naturally try to extort as much as possible from them!
At that moment, the passenger-side window slowly rolled down, and then a girl with pigtails poked her head out.
"P-Please...please help us! Our car is stuck in this tree!"
"Turn off the distress signal first."
Su Nian frantically tapped a few buttons on the control panel, and the flashing red dot on the radar screen finally disappeared.
"Can you help us down now?"
She poked her head out of the window again, and said anxiously,
"Can!"
"Jump down, I'll catch you!"
Lin Xuan nodded, a faint smile playing on his lips. "But before that, you'll have to offer something as payment!"
What do you want?
At this moment, Su Ran, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly spoke up.
"Not many, just ten upgrade cores will do!"
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes and held up one finger.
"Ten?"
Upon hearing this number, Su Nian's face stiffened.
Upgrading the core components is the most essential part of upgrading a vehicle; although they may have some left over...
But taking out ten at once is still a bit of a stretch!
"Ten is too many, how about five?"
She glanced furtively at her older sister beside her, then peeked out and whispered something to her.
"I want ten!"
"If you don't agree, then forget it!"
Lin Xuan shrugged, glancing again at the distant sky. "But it shouldn't be long before it gets dark!"
"You'll have to spend the night in this tree. But do you think those mutated creatures can climb trees? If they can climb trees..."
"what……"
The thought of the zombie dogs from last night made Su Nian's face turn pale, and she immediately shrank back.
Those are truly man-eating creatures; if they can still climb trees, they're likely doomed tonight.
"elder sister……"
She stole a glance at Su Ran beside her, her voice barely audible, like a mosquito's buzz.
Su Ran took a deep breath, opened her storage space, and glanced at it.
Then she glanced down at the handsome young man, who, though good-looking, was full of wicked schemes.
"Okay, we agree!"
"If you can help us get down here, I'll give you ten upgrade cores!"
She pondered for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said,
These upgrade cores were something she had painstakingly collected from several treasure chests, but unexpectedly, they all became someone else's dowry today!
But there's no other way. If we keep dragging this out, it will be too late once night falls!
"Okay, deal!"
