Chapter 112: Misfortune Card
“We’re about to enter the parallel road ahead.”
“Random monster deployment countdown 15:00! Crazy giant swing and steel coil truck are about to arrive on the road!”
What does that mean?
Yu Jiang was stunned and raised her head, checking again the missions released today.
Mileage: 100km
Weekly Mileage Mission: 1000km
It didn’t say anything about monster deployment, giant swing, steel coil truck and such things!
She opened the team channel and asked, “Are you all experiencing this?”
Kuang Kuang Kuang: “No, aside from encountering a few zombies in the morning, nothing else.”
Han Jiang Gu Ying: “What’s the situation? Need help?”
X: “Didn’t receive the message you mentioned. Is it some kind of prop card?”
Yu Jiang: “That’s what I think too, but it seems not targeting individuals, but the road. Look at the public screen.”
Other players are also asking about this.
Crazy Thursday V Me 50: [What the hell! Wasn’t the new weekly mission just released? It’s not instance time yet, right? Suddenly this reminder again!]
Taro Boba: [What reminder? I have nothing here? What happened, don’t scare me.]
Player 2345: [Is it randomly appearing on the parallel road? Damn, this is not letting people live!]
Murong Tiedan: [I know what monster deployment and steel coil truck mean, but what the hell is giant swing?]
The Sound of Wind: [Could it really be karma?]
Lightning Mage King: [We’re all in doomsday survival, and you still believe that?]
The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain: [Could someone have used an item? In this game, strange items appearing should be pretty normal.]
At this time, Wholesale Wang Defa private messaged her, “Sister Jiang, I borrowed a detector, can only be used on the current road, can detect the item user. Want to try it?”
Yu Jiang got straight to the point: “What do you need?”
“Food or medicinal herbs are fine.” Wholesale Wang Defa didn’t beat around the bush, she just liked dealing with straightforward people like this, saving everyone trouble.
Since the big shot spoke on the public screen, she was most likely receiving the message too, so Yu Jiang quickly seized the opportunity to do business.
Yu Jiang directly sent over the things, one portion of medicine and one of food each, and during the trade time with Wholesale Wang Defa, the public screen was already in chaos because of her words.
Walnut Pliers: [Who is it! Damn, are you sick? Using prop card to harm us, debts have owners, who do you have a grudge with, go find them! Finally broke out from the zombie horde, car door got smashed crooked, glass shattered, haven’t even caught a breath and you pull this.]
Old Jar Pickled Mustard: [Which idiot did this, have the guts to stand up!]
A Thousand Lamps Exhaust Snow: [Is it confirmed prop card? Could it be random hard mode? Feels like not many people received the message.]
Xuxu: [Everyone calm down, angering the prop card user, who knows what will happen. This prop card looks very powerful, maybe talk it out nicely?]
Lone Wolf 2009: [This bastard already used tricks, talk my ass!]
Kuángtú Zhāng Sān: [@The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain, big shot, do you know what prop card this is? How long does it last? Didn’t receive the message, but feel uneasy.]
The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain: [Don’t know, I just received the message and guessed.]
After saying that, Yu Jiang’s gaze returned to the team channel. The item detector had been used, just as she guessed.
“It’s that old guy called Suifeng 220 up ahead. Anyone have a tracking card? Buying at high price.”
Purple Butt Can Do It: “Someone in the merchant caravan has one, just asked, no need high price, just need to kill the guy behind it, the seller also received the message.”
Monster deployment countdown remaining: 09:56
The steel coil truck had already come, right in the next second after Yu Jiang asked about the tracking card.
Suddenly, a truck appeared on the road, running extremely fast, carrying a steel coil, unmanned.
Not long after, with a bang, the truck crashed into the right side snowy ground, the steel coil behind rolled out, carrying a terrifying momentum that crushes everything, rolling towards the cars behind.
This thing may not look big, but actually weighs ten to thirty tons, even a tank might not withstand it.
Yu Jiang quickly steered the vehicle to the left side, trying to avoid the madly rolling steel coil.
Relying on the vehicle’s excellent snowy ground off-road performance, she directly drove off the road, into the left side snowy ground to dodge, still hearing the wind and impact sounds brought by the rolling steel coil.
In the rearview mirror, a small car behind was directly crushed from car front to driver’s seat into a sheet of paper.
And another van was so scared it stopped in place, not daring to move.
Yu Jiang stopped the car and immediately sent Purple Butt Can Do It two intermediate healing potions, two frostbite creams and wind-cold powder, trading for the tracking card.
This old guy is quite resilient, the tracking card can be used, meaning the ice zombie hasn’t taken him out yet.
Yu Jiang drove back onto the road, while tracking, glanced at the public screen twice, many people were cursing.
Runaway Mother Monkey: [I’m so damn done, suddenly a boss hammer appeared roadside, spinning very fast, if you don’t time it right when passing, car and person get hammered flying directly, which idiot used the prop card!]
Michelin Three-star Tire: [At the scene, saw with my own eyes the vehicle vanish in an instant.]
At the same time, low health, damaged car, entering the parallel road’s Suifeng 220 revealed a smug smile.
Called so many people not to help him, even mocked him, this is the misfortune card!
His trump card treasure, can activate hard mode on the road, misfortune descends, target can be people, or random parallel road.
Choosing the latter, he can get rewards based on successful passing players’ monster kill count.
Equivalent to others clearing the instance while he gets rewards.
Besides giant swing, steel coil truck, monster deployment, all boxes here will be swapped to monsters!
Watching these people furious on the public screen, crying endlessly, his inner anger and frustration also dissipated, even a bit wanting to laugh.
He specifically chose to come to the hard mode scene, just to see these people’s miserable states with his own eyes.
There’s a giant swing ahead, as the misfortune card user, he can ignore the misfortune descent.
Around the giant swing, car fragments scattered all over the ground, and someone ahead parked, thinking they can just wait for the giant swing to disappear?
Too naive, when misfortune card is active, players in the road segment, if not passing this, it will always block ahead.
Suifeng 220 smugly thought, still an RV, deserves it, who let these people drive such good vehicles, yet unwilling to help him.
His glass is broken, frozen like a dog inside the vehicle, why does this person have an RV!
Next second, the green RV turned direction and fiercely rammed towards him, pushing his nearly scrapped small car’s wear and tear to 78%.
Suifeng 220 hadn’t reacted yet, curse stuck in throat, Yu Jiang had already turned around and rammed again, this time directly smashing into scrap metal.
Her vehicle shield still at 3%, Yu Jiang carried a silver box and threw it into the opponent’s vehicle.
The box had been opened, she saw it was a monster and pushed it back, the box smashed into the front passenger seat, the monster inside also shaken out.
Isn’t this a mutated beetle, inside the vehicle Suifeng 220 looked at the fully wrapped Yu Jiang and let out a pig-slaughtering scream, his already low health points dropping rapidly.
This was Yu Jiang’s first time revealing nickname when killing, killing the heart too, “Was worrying about not finding mutated beetle for the mission, thanks.”
Suifeng 220’s eyes nearly popped out, he wanted to run out, just opened the car door, then died from poisoning and bleeding.
Yu Jiang quickly set to hide nickname.
But whatever benefit this guy got from using the prop card like this, now thoroughly dead, all for nothing.
