Chapter 10 Elimination Mechanism
Chapter 10 Elimination Mechanism
The person who arrived was none other than Meng Mei, who had been standing across the building from Chen Yang earlier.
She was slightly taken aback when she saw Chen Yang, but without saying much, she went straight to the window through which Chen Yang had climbed in.
He peered at the height, then pulled out a specially made grappling hook from his bag, skillfully secured it to the windowsill, and prepared to descend the rope.
Chen Yang had no intention of striking up a conversation and turned to walk towards the door she had come in through.
"Hey, where are you going? You can only go upstairs over there," Mengmei called out before climbing out the window.
Chen Yang didn't stop walking. He turned around and replied calmly, "I'm going upstairs." After saying that, he pushed open the door and disappeared behind it.
"Strange person." Meng Mei shook her head and stopped trying to dissuade her.
She was a sensible person; the building was already severely tilted after the impact, and the staircase could collapse at any moment.
In her view, the only way to survive now is to take the supplies and jump in, then find a floating object like a door panel to survive on the water.
At a time like this, Chen Yang's attempt to climb higher was, in her eyes, no different from suicide.
After leaving the house, Chen Yang began to climb the stairs.
The building was riddled with cracks, and the occasional violent tremors reminded Chen Yang that this place wouldn't last much longer.
He quickened his pace.
If this building collapses, people trapped in the stairwell will surely drown.
During the climb, he paid special attention to the building's tilt angle, confirming that the building was tilting towards the direction of the last building.
"This infinite game is pretty mean."
Chen Yang looked out the window at the last building.
"Isn't this clearly forcing everyone to unleash their potential? Nobody can afford to hide."
He shook his head and continued climbing, encountering many people running downhill along the way.
At first it was normal, but as time went on, more and more people came down with blood on them.
When Chen Yang finally rushed to the rooftop, he was met with corpses all over the ground.
Clearly, the fighting here has just ended.
Driven by extreme panic, these people have gone completely mad in their quest to seize supplies.
Chen Yang shook his head, not in the mood to comment.
In this place, survival is a personal choice.
He walked quickly to the edge of the rooftop and looked out at the last building.
From a distance, he could see that some people were looking in their direction.
That's right, with such a big commotion, it's hard not to attract attention.
Chen Yang was certain that the collision between this building and the last building was definitely a deliberate design by the Infinite Game.
Recalling the violent collision between the two buildings just now, the signs of human intervention were too obvious.
Chen Yang made a rough calculation in his mind.
The first round of elimination will probably involve using those locked doors to weed out mediocre players who just sit and wait to die and don't know how to adapt and go upstairs.
Immediately afterwards, the system destroyed three buildings, extinguishing everyone's hopes of lying down.
In the chaos of the building collision, most of the people were probably killed or injured.
At this rate, Chen Yang estimated that in the end, fewer than ten people would survive seven days and clear this beginner dungeon.
"This elimination rate, tsk tsk, that's really ruthless," Chen Yang casually remarked.
Before he could finish complaining, the building beneath his feet suddenly shook violently, and Chen Yang had to hold onto the railing tightly to avoid being thrown off.
He steadied himself and looked at the water; sure enough, the giant whale had rammed into the water again.
The second building, like a toppled domino, accelerated its descent towards the third building.
[Due to the massive inertial impact, body cells tore apart, Constitution +1, Spirit +5]
[Due to the massive inertial impact, body cells tore apart; Spirit +2]
As the notification sounds continued to ring in his ears, Chen Yang found himself gradually getting used to the impact of the high G-forces.
Although the speed was still frighteningly fast, the physiological feeling of weightlessness and loss of control over the body disappeared.
This gave him room to maneuver.
Chen Yang glanced back, then sprinted in the opposite direction of the building's collapse to the other side of the rooftop.
He clung tightly to the railing, and before the entire building went completely vertical, he flipped over and hung on the exterior facade.
boom!
The two colossal buildings collided with a deafening roar.
Chen Yang was so shocked that he lost his grip, and the area between his thumb and forefinger instantly went numb and cracked.
[Suffered severe physical damage, Constitution +36, Strength +15]
[Due to immense inertia, Constitution +17, Strength +6]
Because he took evasive action in advance, the height from which he fell onto the rubble increased, and the impact he received was more severe than before.
Chen Yang felt pain all over his body, as if every bone in his body had been shattered.
"Damn, the improvement is significant, but the pain is real."
Chen Yang couldn't help but curse, and then "poof" spat out a mouthful of blood.
Although Chen Yang's 155 points of physical strength allowed him to quickly regain his mobility, the broken bones did not heal so quickly.
He is now relying entirely on his superhuman muscle density to hold himself up, like steel bars locking his body in place to maintain basic activities.
After all, it takes an ordinary person a hundred days to recover from a broken bone, and even if his physique is dozens of times stronger, it will still take him at least two or three days to fully heal.
He rested in the ruins for a while until the pain subsided to a tolerable level before gritting his teeth and standing up.
At this point, all three buildings were on the verge of completely sinking, and the water level was rising rapidly.
Chen Yang didn't bother with anything. He simply found a high place to sit and calmly waited for the flood to engulf him.
In that massive collision, those players who narrowly escaped death by clinging to floating objects were swept away in all directions by the raging current.
Looking around, all that could be seen was an endless expanse of water.
The water surge from the collapsing building tore the players to pieces.
Chen Yang knew in his heart that, apart from him, there was probably no other survivor left in the ruins of the building.
As the last piece of rubble sank completely to the bottom of the sea, there was no longer any trace of the building on the surface of the ocean; the view was completely empty.
Chen Yang floated in the water for a few minutes before finally finding a door panel and quickly climbed onto it.
However, the buoyancy of the door panel was not enough to support his entire body; he could only use it as a large lifebuoy, barely managing to keep his head out of the way.
At this point, the advantages of staying in the building ruins became apparent.
As the building sank, many objects less dense than water gradually floated to the surface.
With a little effort, building a small raft here shouldn't be too difficult.
Chen Yang immediately took action.
By the time the sun set, he had pieced together a makeshift raft using scraps of wood and other floating debris he had collected.
At that moment, he was sitting casually on the raft, his body swaying back and forth with the rising and falling water.
"I wonder what tricks they'll pull in the next round of eliminations."
Chen Yang simply lay down on the raft and looked at the dark sky.
A moment later, he closed his eyes and began to snore.
the next day.
Chen Yang was awakened by the sunlight.
Rubbing his eyes, Chen Yang turned over, preparing to go back to sleep.
After all, he had no food left.
Sleeping more and conserving energy is the right thing to do.
However, he was soon kept awake by a series of "bang bang bang" sounds.
"Holy crap, where's that noise coming from?! Who the hell is being so inconsiderate?!"
