Survival at Sea: Recruit Top-Tier Mature and Beautiful Schoolgirls at the Start

"This must be a maze."

Nangong Shuhuan spoke up.

"If I'm not mistaken, there might only be one of these eleven roads that leads to the summit."

"It's also possible that each road has a different route length."

"There may be more forks in the road ahead that require choices."

"In short, this design will indefinitely extend the time it takes us to reach the summit."

Ye Hang nodded slightly.

He felt this deeply.

When he saw that the thick fog on the map would only light up after they had passed through it, he guessed that the island might be designed as a maze.

Otherwise, there would be no need for such an unnecessary step.

Not long after, two other people who had also completed the third stage and arrived on the island came over.

Ye Hang knew these two people.

Wang Man and Lie Feng, whom I had met once before, looked quite disheveled and haggard.

"Boss, I've finally met you! Please, please help me out! This game is inhuman!"

Wang Man broke down on the spot.

A grown man was crying his eyes out.

Ye Hang frowned. "Stop crying. Believe me or not, I'll kill you right now."

Upon hearing this, Wang Man immediately stopped crying.

Although it was a team game, he still believed that Ye Hang would choose to make a move.

It seems that everyone was present.

The system voice sounded again, beginning to explain the rules.

The rules were similar to what Nangong Shuhuan had in mind.

The roads on the mountain are like a maze, with many intersections; if you choose a dead end, you must turn back.

Ye Hang glanced at the chat room.

"(Island No. 1): I didn't expect it to be a maze design. Luckily, there are many of us. Each team chooses a route and then shares the map. I think we'll figure out the correct route soon."

"(Island No. 88): There are only 8 of us, and only 4 teams. What are we going to do? It's already difficult enough to just reach the top of the mountain, and now they've pulled this on us. Aren't they just pushing us to our deaths?"

……

At this moment, the invisible defensive light barrier surrounding the stone pillar disappeared, and Ye Hang and his companions could choose a path to proceed.

He activated Eagle Vision to take a look.

Within the eagle's field of vision, it's impossible to tell which path leads to survival and which leads to certain death.

In addition, the forest canopy obstructs the view, greatly reducing the effectiveness of the eagle eye.

Just as he was wondering what to choose, the Prophecy Eye reacted.

A blue treasure chest appeared on one of the routes.

"kindness?"

Ye Hang raised an eyebrow. "Alright, let's choose this route. Let's go."

Without further hesitation, Ye Hang sped forward along the chosen path.

Beside him, Liefeng asked, "Brother Man, what do we do? Should we choose another route?"

Wang Man looked at him with exasperation, "What are you thinking? Don't you know how dangerous this game is? Why did you choose a different route?"

"Since it's a team game and we have strong teammates, why are you taking any risks? Just follow along. It's good to contribute, but the most important thing is to survive."

After Wang Man finished speaking, he was about to chase after Ye Hang in the direction Ye Hang had left.

"Brother Man, you must have seen the chat room too, right? If this continues, our chances of finding the right path are even lower," Lie Feng said hurriedly.

Wang Man shook his head. "That is indeed a problem. If we choose other routes, the probability of finding the correct route will double. However, I have a feeling that the route chosen by Boss Ye Hang is the most correct one."

And so, Wang Man and Lie Feng did not choose any other route, but followed closely behind Ye Hang and the others.

Ye Hang took in all of this through Eagle Eye.

However, he does not intend to interfere.

These two people can do whatever they want, and it has no effect on him whatsoever.

Soon, Ye Hang arrived at his destination.

Beside the road ahead, there is a marble platform with a treasure chest on it.

Below the stone platform are four leopard-man figures.

Like the human-sheep design, this human-leopard is no different from a normal human except for having a leopard's head.

Of the four leopards, one was noticeably taller.

It's called Leopard Head, which is equivalent to the position of captain.

As soon as Ye Hang and his group came into view, the four leopards immediately charged towards them.

Ye Hang did not make a move.

He summoned four fishman minions directly.

The battle was a foregone conclusion; the murloc minions completely overwhelmed the four leopard-men.

It's not that they are physically superior to each other by much.

The key issue is the gap in career options.

The four leopard-men all carried identical machetes, classifying them as warriors.

But Ye Hang's team had tanks, warriors, archers, and even priests.

"Mengli, go open the treasure chest."

The responsibility of opening the treasure chest still falls on Chu Mengli.

Chu Mengli was very happy about this.

Ye Hang felt that she seemed to be a little addicted to opening treasure chests, and she would get extremely excited every time she opened one.

It feels like a gambler winning the lottery.

A blue light appeared, and a bottle of constitution potion was dispensed, increasing constitution by 0.2.

Ye Hang thought for a moment.

"Nangong Shuhuan, here's the potion for you. Your constitution is too weak; you can't even reach the level of a normal person. This will only drag our team down."

Ye Hang's idea was very simple.

This medicine is very precious. He gave such a valuable medicine to Nangong Shuhuan. Shouldn't she at least express her gratitude?

The result was very different from what he expected.

Nangong Shuhuan calmly accepted the medicine and drank it directly. "A very correct choice."

Ye Hang was speechless.

Does this girl only judge things as right or wrong?

This is a precious physique-enhancing medicine.

Ye Hang sighed; the task ahead was arduous and the road ahead was long.

It seems that the same methods used to deal with Chu Mengli will not work if we want to win over Nangong Shuhuan; we need to change our approach.

"Perhaps we should try rescuing the damsel in distress again?"

Ye Hang was pondering this in his mind.

He kissed Chu Mengli before because he saved her from harm.

Along the way, four dragonfish cleared the path, and Ye Hang and his companions didn't have a chance to make a move. The four dragonfish easily dealt with any humans or leopards they encountered.

Even a team of five human-leopards was no match for them.

Of course, I also got quite a few green treasure chests.

They found a lot of materials, food, and the like.

Soon, they arrived at an intersection.

There are three forks in the road ahead.

Just as Ye Hang was wondering what to choose, the Prophecy Eye reacted again, and he discovered another blue treasure chest.

"This time we'll go this way."

Ye Hang led the team toward the blue treasure chest.

Same routine, same formula.

This time, a bottle of Intuition Potion was prescribed and given to Nangong Shuhuan again.

Her base stats are too low.

Chu Mengli had no objection to this, nor did Nangong Shuhuan, and they accepted the decision as a matter of course.

And so they continued their journey.

Six hours later.

They stopped to camp and have a meal. Today they were having hot pot, and the equipment was something they had redeemed from a vending machine earlier.

Food is obtained by opening treasure chests.

It's worth mentioning that during those six hours, they didn't encounter the legendary dead end even once.

Wang Man and Lie Feng followed cautiously behind Ye Hang and the others, keeping a certain distance.

Holding dry bread and bottled water, Ye Hang and his two companions gazed longingly at the picnic blanket spread out in the distance, enjoying a hearty meal.

My mouth watered involuntarily.

"Is this what life is like for a big shot? Compared to him, aren't we just beggars?"
