The whole nation is trying to survive on the cable car; I'm choosing one of three options at ea

After they land on the sand, it takes several seconds for new outlines to emerge from the ground.

One of them didn't even get up immediately, but knelt in the sandpit, its two paws supporting it on the ground, its tail dragging weakly behind it, as if each resurrection was rapidly consuming some kind of core within it.

Su Mu glanced at the experience bar on his panel.

After reaching level 17, the experience provided by these purple gatekeepers is recalculated starting from ten points, but the experience cap for low-level monsters is not as high as before.

His upgrade speed is a bit slower now than when he was Lv16, but it is still stable.

"I wish I could keep doing this forever," he thought.

But that's obviously impossible.

He looked up at the purple sandpit that was slowly recovering; the echoing notification was still flashing at the edge of the panel, but he didn't use it right away.

This wasn't a safe place, and he didn't want to be distracted in the midst of battle by listening to something that might be making noises he didn't know what it was.

While the monsters were still resurrecting, he turned on his communicator and sent a message to Lin Yuwei.

"I'm fine here. I found a rather strange monster spawn point; these monsters revive and get stronger the more you fight them. I'll tell you the details when I get back."

Lin Yuwei replied quickly: "I see your health has been stable, don't get bogged down. I'm going to deal with the intelligence point, then I'll head back to the cable car. Keep in touch."

Su Mu replied with "Okay," then switched to the world channel to take a look.

The channel is in an uproar.

"Everyone on the cable, be careful. Quite a few people from the Sakura Kingdom have already chosen to land on my cable. Several members of our guild have been ambushed by them. Several have died."

"Those people from the Sakura Country are disgusting. They come here to ambush ordinary players just because they have a high level."

"They crossed the line a long time ago. They moved too fast and didn't give us any time to react."

Su Mu frowned slightly and continued scrolling down.

Soon, he saw the message from the Sakura Country cable line.

"You bunch of useless '886' workers, we've arrived! Where are you all? Hiding in the cable car, too scared to get off?"

"Just killed two. Their gear was decent, a bit better than the last cable."

"Haha, there aren't many monsters here, but it's okay, we didn't come here to grind monsters. We came here to kill people."

"Chinese people are despicable; they deserve to be beaten to death."

"Don't rush, let's take our time and play slowly once their core is secured."

Su Mu looked at the line of text, and his eyes turned cold.

He turned off the channel and looked at the sandpit that was slowly turning purple.

"After I finish dealing with things here," he said softly, as if speaking to himself, "I'll personally go and collect your 'resources'."

In the distance, the purple aura in the sandpit began to gather again. The outline of the gatekeeper appeared faintly beneath the sand, more solid than before.

......

When Lin Yuwei received Su Mu's message, she was already standing near the Desert Fruit intelligence point.

She quickly scanned the few lines of text, her gaze lingering for a moment on the words "somewhat strange" and "gets stronger the more you fight," before bringing up the link panel for another look.

Su Mu's health was incredibly stable.

From the start of the battle until now, the bar representing health points has barely moved. Mental energy has also remained within a safe range, without any sudden, precipitous depletion.

"It should still be under control," she said softly, her tense shoulders relaxing slightly.

Now that Su Mu is safe for the time being, it's time for me to get back to my own business.

The location of the Desert Fruit is in the northwest, less than two kilometers from where she is now.

The intelligence we received today was very detailed, even indicating the levels of the monsters in the surrounding area. If we don't take this resource point soon, it might get discovered by others, which would be bad.

She checked the items in her pouch, making sure the short-distance teleportation scroll and stealth device were in the most convenient positions, then crouched down and circled around from the back of the dune.

The desert sun was already high in the sky, and waves of heat rose from the sand, making even the air smell of dry, cracked earth. Lin Yuwei pulled her scarf up, leaving only her eyes exposed, and her steps were as light as if she were walking on cotton.

She quickly found the desert fruit.

The thing grew in a partially collapsed sandstone pit. Its shape was somewhat like a graft of a cactus and some kind of vine. The main stem was short and thick, covered with fine grayish-white hairs. At the top were three fist-sized fruits with dark yellow skin and patterns similar to tortoise shells.

She didn't rush to get closer.

The intelligence report stated that there were level 7 monsters active in the area.

She crouched behind a sandstone rock twenty meters away and scanned the surroundings with her detection lens.

Two.

Both were level seven sand lizards; one was lying in a pile of rubble on the east side of the tunnel, and the other was behind a clump of dry bushes in the northwest corner.

They look similar to ordinary lizards, but their limbs are thicker, they have a row of bony spines on their backs, and their tails are forked at the end.

Lin Yuwei slowly exhaled.

With her current stats, it's too much of a stretch for her to face two level 7 monsters head-on at the same time.

But she had other options.

Su Mu's link is still active.

Since being bound, her defenses have become completely impervious to monsters of similar level to herself.

With his stealth and defense abilities, he doesn't need to worry too much.

........

While Lin Yuwei was busy running around to resource points, the sky above the yellow sand area through which the 886 cable passed was not peaceful.

From the moment the challenge began, some of the Sakura Kingdom survivors chose to land directly in the activity area of ​​Cable 886.

These people moved so fast that many of the casual survivors who were still grinding monsters on the ground didn't have time to react.

They're not here to fight monsters.

They work in teams of several people, specifically targeting lone, low-level survivors.

"Is anyone there? I think I heard gunshots over here, and I hear someone shouting for help!"

In the channel, a Level 4 survivor's voice came through intermittently, filled with panic: "They suddenly rushed out from behind the dunes, and my friend was instantly knocked down. Both of them... are dead..."

"Where are you? Send me your coordinates!"

"We can't send it... We ran east... They're chasing us..."

The voice abruptly stopped.

The channel was silent for a few seconds, then exploded.

"Don't go down! The people from Japan are coming this way!"

"Damn it, those bastards! I just saw three gray figures sneak past from the north. They were incredibly fast. I only managed to avoid being discovered because I hid."

"Don't panic! Those who can run, get back to the cable car! Don't just stand there!"

"They even stole our guild's resource points! I just saw two people taking things from my resource area. I couldn't fight them, so I had to run."

"Call the police! Quickly send messages to the big guilds!"

Various sounds were mixed together.
