Surviving the Maze of National Destiny: Hints from the Chinese Characters I Understand

Why do we say it was unintentional? Because their observation windows were all facing the edge of the safe zone, which is where prey frequently appears.

At this moment, they were observing the situation outside the safe zone, because justice was beginning to fall from the sky.

Countless exploding watermelons rained down from the sky, almost every 1 or 2 seconds, one exploding watermelon would fall within a 1-square-meter area, making it difficult to dodge because they were everywhere.

Many explorers had their health bars gradually whittled down before being crushed to death outside the safe zone.

A large number of maze creatures rushed into the safe zone, while some died outside. The exploding watermelon was effective against all creatures.

Given such a harsh living environment, who would have thought that someone could slip through the net even in the safe zone behind them?

Even more outrageous, Wang Fugui also carried two bottles of slug nutrient solution and one bottle of Swift Wind potion, which he intended to use for fishing.

A level 6 explorer from the Rising Sun Kingdom exclaimed excitedly, "Look! There's an explorer from the Dragon Kingdom over there. The indicator says he should have something on him, hahaha!"

"Wow, it really is! They even offer delivery service for sending people to their door?" another explorer from the Rising Sun Kingdom exclaimed excitedly.

The two of them were only responsible for observation here. There were several such observation posts, and they were a team of 10 people.

Once a high-value target is identified, proceed to the assembly point 300 meters away to gather manpower.

"Matsushita Yuzuru, you stay here and continue to observe. I'll go get help." His teammate, also an explorer from the Kingdom of Rising Sun, said as he got up to leave.

"Inoue Ichijo-kun, wait!" Matsushita Yuzuru's eyes gleamed. "He's all alone; we can easily take him down ourselves."

Inoue Ichijo's expression changed, and he stroked his chin: "Yoshi, Yuanzi-kun is indeed far-sighted. We are compatriots, so naturally we should unite together. If we go back and inform the main force, those disgusting Indians and Koreans will try to steal our spoils again."

"Ichijo-kun is right. There's only one Chinese person. We can't hesitate. If we're too late, it won't be our turn."

The two quickly reached an agreement and moved in from the front and back to surround Wang Fugui.

The two men's loud, secret plot made the Chinese viewers in the live stream laugh.

Even netizens from India and South Korea were amused.

[A netizen from India: See? I told you so! The people of Han are fine, so you might be in trouble too. My words have come true.]

[Chinese netizens: You know what, the prophecies of India are actually quite effective. They don't work for Chinese people, but they're incredibly accurate for explorers from other countries.]

[A netizen from the Great Cold Country commented: Hahaha, thanks to the explorer who's living a good life for taking the hit for us.]

[A netizen from the Rising Sun Kingdom commented: Damn it! These Chinese are so cunning, they're trying to fish us out.]

[A netizen from India: Didn't you guys bring this upon yourselves? If you hadn't had selfish motives and had notified the main force, they definitely wouldn't have dared to launch a sneak attack with just 10 people.]

The live stream was noisy, and Wang Fugui chuckled to himself in the video, because he realized someone had taken the bait.

Faced with the two Rising Sun Kingdom explorers approaching from the front and back, Wang Fugui's face showed terror: "You...you two, don't come any closer!"

Look, this is what a veteran actor looks like.

Two explorers from the Rising Sun Kingdom approached step by step with sinister smiles, while Wang Fugui pretended to be afraid. He slipped and rolled down a slope behind him.

The exit of the cave is located below the slope, but it is blocked by the hillside, so people above cannot see the cave or any signs.

This is why many teams are unaware that the exit of this cave is within the safe zone.

"Hahaha, try to run away, where do you think you can go?" Two explorers from the Rising Sun Kingdom gave chase.

They saw divine runes appear in the grass below the hillside, two at level 6 and one at level 7. They didn't understand and were wondering when a Moonlight Slash suddenly shot out from the cave with lightning speed.

At the same time, Kabu rushed out of the cave and finished off the explorer who had been injured by Lin Mo.

The ending is self-evident: the two explorers from the Rising Sun Kingdom died under mysterious circumstances.

Lin Mo felt that he could now handle 3-4 explorers of the same level by himself; his level 10 swordsmanship was truly astounding.

Considering how abundant our supplies are, it might not be impossible to fight for five without regard to the cost.

Lin Mo's points increased by another 12, firmly securing his first place.

【恭喜您击杀2名6级探索者，获得竞赛积分+12，当前总积分：114分。精英组参赛总人数（379/791人），存活人数我们将实时更新。】

Lin Mo was shocked; half of the people had actually been eliminated.

At this point, 25 minutes had passed since the safe zone refreshed, and there was almost no movement outside the safe zone. If you hadn't entered the safe zone by now, there were only two possibilities: either you had been eliminated, or you were hiding in a house or cave.

But hiding won't help. These people will soon realize that the safe zone will refresh in 5 minutes, and poisonous fog will appear everywhere except in the safe zone.

The density of maze creatures and explorers in the safe zone is now extremely high; almost all the surviving humans and maze monsters are crammed into this area.

Although Lin Mo is currently inside the safe zone, he is also on the edge. The safe zone will shrink in 5 minutes, but he doesn't know if his current location will shrink as well.

The two explorers from the Rising Sun Kingdom found two bottles of slug nutrient solution in their box, which can be considered a success.

"Brother Lin, what do we do next?" Wang Fugui was in a good mood. He felt that following the big boss was really easy.

"The safe zone will shrink in 5 minutes. Let's wait and see how it shrinks before making a decision."

"Lin, do you mean that this place might become a wilderness in a while? And then those exploding watermelons will fall from the sky?" Zhang Si said, pointing outside the safe zone.

"We don't care, we can hide in the cave." Wang Fugui felt there was nothing to worry about.

"Yes! But the wilderness will be even more dangerous in a while, because after the refresh, it won't be exploding watermelons falling from the sky, but poisonous fog! Everyone hiding in the wilderness will die!" Lin Mo said solemnly.

"Poison...poisonous fog?" The two were shocked. They didn't understand this part of the prompt. They were extremely grateful that they had met Lin Mo, otherwise they would not have known how they were eliminated.

What Lin Mo didn't expect was that before the poisonous fog arrived, a group of eight explorers from the Western Alliance arrived first, and they seemed to be looking for someone.

Eight people? Wang Fugui and Zhang Si tensed up instantly; this was a scene they had never witnessed before.

"Brother Lin, hurry up and run. Zhang Si and I will buy you some time."

Wang Fugui had already drawn a curved sword, and Zhang Si was also gripping his spear tightly. In their view, it was time for them to show their value: that was to sacrifice themselves to help Lin Mo break through the encirclement.
