Doomsday survival game? I became a boss by picking up trash

Chapter 214

"Are you going to change?"

Xin Jia looked at Song Yu and asked in a low voice.

Song Yu shook his head, showing no intention of stepping forward, his face full of disdain.

"Don't you think this is a trap?"

Xin Jia largely agreed with Song Yu's opinion; those exchangeable items were indeed very attractive. If they were in the wilderness, Song Yu and Xin Jia might choose to exchange for them.

But now they are in the White Desert, and they are about to enter a predator society.

You can exchange your kidneys here; don't use theirs.

He was already partially disabled.

Losing a part of an organ will reduce their combat effectiveness. Even though Song Yu has the mechanical worm source virus that can create prostheses, they are still different from real limbs.

This desert merchant who suddenly appeared is clearly bait.

Even if they exchange their limbs for items or attribute resources, it wouldn't make up for what they lost.

Song Yu was certain that predators were waiting for them on the way ahead, and they had ways to deal with them!
If sacrificing flesh can be exchanged for attribute items, then Song Yu and Xin Jia must each sacrifice more than the other.

However, the desert merchants wanted organ meats: heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys.

A glint of light flashed in Song Yu's eyes. Come to think of it, she had a spare heart.

The heart of the land.

She has two!

Song Yu's gaze fell on the desert merchant's stall: the heart, the most important organ that humans cannot lose.

The item that can be exchanged is... an Evolution Fruit!
Song Yu's eyelids twitched; this was somewhat tempting.

However, Song Yu remained rational. Even if she had a land heart to replace it, now was not the best time to make a deal.

She dared to say that if she dared to perform surgery on herself in the desert, the players in the player base would eat her alive, not to mention Xin Jia.

Even if the national team players don't make a move and stand on her side, they still can't withstand Xin Jia.

"Do you want to trade for an evolution fruit?"

Xin Jia seemed to sense Song Yu's intention and suddenly spoke up from behind Song Yu.

"think."

Song Yu shrugged and spread his hands.

"It's a pity that humans don't have two hearts."

Who wouldn't be tempted by the fruit of evolution?
But who has two hearts? Even if it were Sister Kidney, it would be a huge injury to have one of her hearts removed.

The two looked at each other and sighed deeply.

If only I could steal from others! That damn desert merchant exchanged an evolution fruit for a heart, and it's a bound version!
There was simply no opening for them to slip through.

"I suggest you don't change it."

Out of the last shred of human morality, Song Yu offered a reminder.

"It's okay, we won't exchange too much, just a little."

Song Yu and Xin Jia watched as the national team players swarmed in front of the desert merchant's stall, and even Bei Yuan couldn't help but feel tempted.

You can get so many powerful items by using just a few useless things.

Who wouldn't be tempted by this?

They didn't change much, just a tiny bit, really just a tiny bit.

Among the national team players, Jiang Chenxuan is the only one who hasn't made any moves; this girl has potential.

After all the players had finished redeeming their items, Song Yu looked at the wounded soldiers and generals in front of him and raised an eyebrow at Xin Jia.

Don't say she's disloyal and stabbed them in the back; she genuinely wanted to take them away from the White Desert.

Now, it's already a miracle that these people aren't being used as scapegoats by Song Yu and her group.

The worst is not even having the right to be a scapegoat.

"Let's go."

Ignoring the injuries on these people, Song Yu and Xin Jia continued on their way.

She found a point.

In reality, considering the skill level and even the mentality of the players in these player bases... there's still quite a gap between them and the players in this instance.

But they ended up entering this instance.

This is different from the ocean dungeon, where the players were just weak and unlucky.

Which of those who survived the ocean dungeon didn't become a top-tier player?

These people are quite strong, but they're much less intelligent than those in the Ocean Dungeon.

Could it be because of the player base?

"The players in the player base are united as one, and the base's strength is distributed among them. They also have other players in the base to help them."

Xin Jia and Song Yu were discussing this issue, and they decided to select the best among the short ones, which is why these players were brought in.

Indeed, compared to individual players, players in player bases have a significant advantage.

Especially for some promising new players who have joined the national team, they will never have to endure the hardships they once faced.

"The predecessors planted the trees so that the successors could enjoy the shade."

Song Yu, with his hands behind his back, said with a hint of sourness.

If there had been a national team when she first entered the game, she probably would have chosen to join it, which would have saved her from many detours.

At worst, we can just hide Xiao Hei.

After all, at that time, she and Xiao Hei only wanted to save their grandmother; they didn't think about anything else.

However, time cannot be turned back, and her current state of mind is vastly different from when she first started.

Time is truly a terrifying thing.

After leaving the desert merchant's stall, they walked for an unknown amount of time. More than 90% of the players had run out of ammunition and food, and one player had died in the desert.

Finally, some skeletons began to appear in the vast white sand; they were getting close to the exit!
These bones have been weathered by the desert, and even an ordinary person could easily crush them by stepping on them.

When the first bone came into Song Yu's sight, she immediately became extremely vigilant. It seemed that their luck was not good, and they had actually walked down the road known as death.

Song Yu glanced at the time.

From the moment they entered the White Desert, it took them more than two months to travel there, but only a little over three days had actually passed.

It is currently 5:41 PM on the twentieth day of the game.

It wasn't too different from what I expected.

Song Yu and Xin Jia's expressions remained calm, showing no change over the past two months.

However, when the remaining players saw these skeletons, their eyes welled up, but no tears fell; they couldn't bear to lose their moisture.

Honestly, if they can't find a way out, they're all going to die here!
Even Song Yu and Xin Jia were almost out of food and water. But...

Song Yu looked at the road, which was covered with white bones when the wind blew, and his eyes became deep and unfathomable.

Judging from this situation, at least hundreds of millions of people have died here.

This isn't the exit of the White Desert, but rather a dumping ground for human slaughterhouses.

Song Yu glanced at Xin Jia, who nodded slightly. Now was not the time for the two of them to step on each other. They should both know what was more important.

When Bei Yuan and Jiang Chenxuan saw these skeletons, they couldn't help but feel horrified!
With so many human bones, could this white desert have been formed from weathered bones?
Stepping over the bones scattered on the ground, Song Yu and Xin Jia continued forward.

Some of the players behind them couldn't help but feel the urge to retreat; this place was far too dangerous.

So many humans have perished here, will they be the exception?
No one could give them a definite answer.

Moreover, they sacrificed some of their own organs in exchange for various items and attributes, always thinking that there must be items in the dungeon that could restore their limbs.

Even if they don't have it in the dungeon, they can still exchange it for this type of potion in the real world as long as they accumulate enough points.

The saying "many hands make light work" is absolutely true; the national team has a lot of good players.

The sound of bones cracking and breaking echoed through the desert from time to time. The further Song Yu walked, the more she felt that this was not working.

After thinking for a moment, she took out the Hidden Stone from her backpack.

Both she and Xin Jia possessed a large number of Hidden Stones, all of which they had painstakingly obtained.

The quantity must be at least 180 kilograms.

They hadn't used these concealment stones at all in the wild and in the village before. The two exchanged a glance, realizing that now was probably the time to put them to use.

As for how to wear all these hidden stones on their bodies, Song Yu and Xin Jia each had their own methods.

"You'd better carry all the Hidden Stones with you."

Song Yu kindly reminded him.

Bei Yuan nodded hastily; listening to Song Yu at this time was definitely the right thing to do.

Now, Bei Yuan regrets not listening to Song Yu before, and why she was so greedy to exchange for attribute points.

We don't know what will happen next.

The half-dead mechanical worm-borne virus was activated, and it quickly gnawed at these hard stones, using them to arm its entire body and cover itself with the powder of the Hidden Stone.

Then, one mechanical worm-like virus after another surrounded Song Yu, disguised as a skeleton.

Song Yu quickly sank down, hiding inside the skeleton swarm along with the mechanical worm-borne virus.

She did it, and others followed suit.

However, they did not have Song Yu's mechanical worm source virus, nor did they have as many hidden stones as Song Yu.

In any case, all we can do now is try our best and leave the rest to fate.

Xin Jia also had her own method. With so many summoned creatures, she directly summoned a Hidden Stone Demon using the Hidden Stone as a medium. The Hidden Stone Demon swallowed Xin Jia into its belly and slowly walked among the skeletons!
Perhaps one or two or a hundred cryptic stones will allow predators to spot humans, but what about ten thousand, a hundred thousand, or a million?

They hide inside the rocks; how can predators find them?

Song Yu thought the answer should be no.

You can tell by looking at the attributes of Xin Jia's summoned creatures.

[Hidden Stone Demon (Summoned by player Xin Jia): A demon composed of hidden stones, impossible to detect unless one is a top-tier predator!]

With such a powerful weapon at their disposal, wouldn't the predator society allow them to come and go as they please?

The answer is definitely no; Hidden Stones are consumables, not real estate.

Just as the group had disguised themselves and concealed their presence, the once peaceful desert suddenly trembled.

The predators are coming!
Everyone's hearts tightened instantly, and they subconsciously held their breath.

Song Yu, possessing the mechanical worm-borne virus, could clearly see the situation above. He saw several predators wearing black and red aprons stepping on the bones, each holding a knife.

Based on Song Yu's experience, that was a boning knife.

Besides the knife, they also seemed to be holding something else in their hands.

It looks like white paper?

Why take so much?
In a flash, Song Yu understood!

It's a list!
Hunting List!

Players who exchanged attribute items at the desert merchant are probably all on that hunting list!
Why would a merchant appear in a desert that is supposed to be devoid of any living creatures or water?

I initially thought it was arranged by the system, but now it seems that the desert merchant was actually arranged by the predators!

Players who can enter the desert are definitely not weak. These people are excellent ingredients and the most delicious food for predators!
The organs and flesh that players exchanged for must have been supplied to the predators!
After they've tasted the deliciousness of this flesh and blood, they then let the predators in the slaughterhouse hunt down the players!

Players who have lost some of their flesh and organs have reduced attributes, making them easier to kill.

This whole process is interconnected; the predator is quite clever!

Song Yu only realized it now. She thought the desert merchant was a system or an NPC merchant in this world who might be colluding with the predators, but she didn't expect it to be arranged by the predators.

Those attributes, items, and evolution fruits—the predator has gone all out; they're exactly the kind of things an NPC merchant would offer.

They completely forgot that predators can also have good things in their hands.

It's like an Omnic copy, something held by the Omnics.

In the previous instance, only players might exist among the Omnics, but in this instance, NPC merchants have even emerged among the Predators!

Even knowing this, Song Yu did nothing; she could coldly watch as these players, with whom she had a good relationship, were killed by the predator.

The players' resistance was nothing to these predators. These predators, exuding a murderous aura, were extremely powerful, stronger than all the predators Song Yu had ever seen before combined!
Let alone these players, even Song Yu and Xin Jia would have a tough time against each other.

Unless they gather Xiao Hei, Shen Jie, Sang Ning, and the national team's Tang Hong and Chu Lang.

All the players who resisted were immediately attacked with bare hands and swiftly discarded their bones in the desert!
It wasn't until a predator caught Bei Yuan that Bei Yuan, who was hiding very close to Song Yu, saw Song Yu, and Song Yu saw her too.

She didn't betray Song Yu; she just thought that it would be better if Song Yu killed her instead.

At least her talent and legacy will still fall into Song Yu's hands, and Song Yu will definitely kill the predator.

Song Yu, standing beneath the skeleton, shook her head at Bei Yuan, signaling her not to resist.

Based on the predators we've encountered so far, their habits are very similar to humans. Why would they die if they have fresh food to eat?

Now we have no choice but to take a gamble.

Bei Yuan trembled all over, fear filling her heart.

But she still chose to listen to Song Yu. If she had listened to Song Yu before, she wouldn't be in this predicament now.

The worst outcome is death; how much worse can it get?

Bei Yuan did not resist. Sure enough, the predator did not choose to kill these obedient prey, but put them into a specially made cage!
The remaining players stopped resisting immediately upon seeing this, and they all survived.

temporary.

After capturing and killing all the players who had exchanged flesh and blood, the butchers searched the Bone Desert again before leaving.

Of the group of more than twenty people, only Song Yuxinjia and Jiang Chenxuan were unharmed.

Regarding this book, I'm currently considering whether to finish writing this and the real-world versions of the story, or to extend it to over 100 million words. ●)o(●
