Chapter 58 Leading to the Roof
"Well, it should be, unless the environment changes again." Chen Xingying nodded.
"So now we should think carefully about why we guided us here, and then the wind stopped." Xiaoyu said.
"This, I think based on the pace from the beginning of the game to now, we should know the answer soon."
What Chen Xingying said was true. In fact, the next emergency was gradually approaching them.
"I asked you, have you noticed any strange noises?" Chen Xin suddenly said.
"Huh?" Everyone calmed down and felt it.
"There does seem to be some kind of roar, and it seems to be getting louder and louder?" Xiaopeng exclaimed.
"Is this true?" Chen Xingying immediately looked around.
In the distance, they could see that the rapids were flooding the road at an extremely fast speed, getting closer and closer to them.
"Quick, get into the building, the tallest one over there!" Chen Xingying immediately shouted to everyone.
"Ah?" Xiaopeng hasn't reacted yet.
"It's a tsunami!"
When everyone heard the word tsunami, they immediately started running after Chen Xingying.
After rushing into the building, the first thing I did was to press the elevator button. But the elevator seemed to have stopped working.
"Climb the stairs!"
Everyone immediately followed Chen Xingying's instructions and ran to the safe passage. They ran up one floor after another. Fortunately, this was a virtual world, otherwise they would have collapsed from exhaustion climbing the stairs at such a speed in the real world.
The torrent that climbed to more than ten floors rushed over and flooded the bottom of the building. The water spread layer by layer, and finally rose to the tenth floor.
When the four of them realized that they had reached a safe height, they stopped climbing and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's like being in a disaster movie." This shouldn't be considered a complaint, but Li Xiaopeng's true feelings.
"Earthquakes, strong winds, tsunamis. It's like experiencing the end of the world." Xiaoyu also sighed there.
"The event is called: The Doomsday Showdown World Twenty Years Ago. Could it refer to what happened in your Doomsday Showdown World?" Chen Xin analyzed there.
"That's 80% true. Although we have never encountered this map, it is estimated that the setting is what the Doomsday Showdown City Ruins map looked like twenty years ago." Chen Xingying agreed.
"That means we are experiencing the moment when this map was born?" Xiaoyu seemed to think so.
"Well, after several rounds of battles and disasters caused by system settings, there should be very few teams still alive, and the two-hour time limit seems to have passed more than half."
"To be precise, there's almost half an hour left." Chen Xingying said and then Xiaopeng interjected.
"Huh? You actually have a plan?" The three of them looked at him.
"Yeah, it's a time-limited game. Isn't it strange that I'm counting the time?" Xiaopeng said and took out something similar to an electronic stopwatch, which showed that there were more than 32 minutes left.
"Okay, no matter what, it is always good to know the accurate remaining time. Next, the situation system should guide everyone to one place." Chen Xingying thought.
"Look, it's raining outside." Chen Xin said from the side.
The other three people ran to the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked out.
It did start to rain outside, and the rain suddenly became stronger and even thundered.
The loud thunder seemed to frighten Chen Xin, causing her to take a small step back.
Chen Xingying saw this scene and held back her laughter.
"Is there going to be a heavy rain next?" Xiaoyu said while watching.
"Heavy rain alone does not seem to pose any danger." Chen Xingying said, noticing the water level under her feet.
If it continues to grow, the water level may rise. By the way! Is this forcing us upward?
The rain outside is indeed getting heavier and heavier, and may have surpassed natural heavy rains.
Then the water level really started to rise.
"Everyone, let's continue climbing the stairs!" Chen Xingying said immediately upon seeing this.
So the four people started to climb up again. After reaching the tenth floor, they came to the window and saw that the water level had risen a lot.
"Hey, you don't want to climb all the way to the top of the building, do you?" There are more than 70 floors!
"That's weird, wouldn't the time limit be up if you climb up like this?"
"Ding~" suddenly came the sound of the elevator stopping at the floor. It was so loud that all of them could hear it clearly.
"Huh? Didn't the person who just came in check that the elevator was broken?" Xiaopeng said in surprise.
"Needless to say, this opens the way to the final challenge." Chen Xingying said with a smile.
"Oh, it's the same as the windless belt before!" Xiaopeng understood.
"Then hurry up and go to the finals." Xiaoyu raised his thumb and pointed at the elevator.
The four of them walked into the elevator cautiously, and Chen Xingying pressed the floor button.
The elevator really started to operate normally. The four of them watched the elevator go up one floor after another without saying a word.
After reaching the top floor, the four people got out of the elevator. The water level at this time had risen to two floors lower than them for some reason.
"Is this unscientific speed really a game? It's a deliberately arranged scene. It's still rising. Let's go to the roof!" Chen Xingying said.
The four people opened the door to the roof through the stairs.
It's still raining heavily outside, but the intensity is much lighter and it doesn't affect the players' normal actions.
"Professor, look, there is a bridge between the buildings?" Chen Xin pointed to the distance and said.
Looking from a distance, the edges of each building are connected by large iron plates.
"This is simply a standard game scene!" Xiaoyu sighed.
"Yes, and the purpose is very obvious, which is to get us into a melee!" Xiaopeng said, picked up the weapon and sniped a person on the roof in front of him to the left.
Everyone realized the enemy's presence and immediately hid behind the bunker.
"Securing ourselves exposed on the roof is our current goal!" Chen Xingying roared.
"Our floor should be the highest in the surrounding area now. It's condescending."
Chen Xin said while looking around.
"Maybe the building is like this, but it's not necessarily the tallest." Xiaoyu said, pointing to the distance to their right.
The pointed top of the tower was obviously higher than the building they were in.
"TV tower?"
Chen Xingying looked there carefully. Are there any players here?
Then her eyes did not deceive her, and Chen Xingying actually vaguely saw a figure on top of the tower.
If this place is targeting us, wouldn't it be completely exposed under his eyes?
"I said...we better get out of here!"
"Huh?" The other three people didn't react immediately.
Suddenly a bullet flew over and hit Xiaopeng's left side. Sure enough, the guy on the TV tower was aiming at us.
Chapter completed!
