Chapter 216: Server Merge Countdown
[Good morning, fellow Survivors. Server Merge countdown: 48 hours
At that time, 4 Game Areas will merge into 002 Area, and the Leaderboard will also merge for statistics. However, don’t worry, the system will also give everyone time to adapt.
During the Server Merge Phase, this week, the probability of encountering Survivors from other Game Areas on Parallel Roads will be relatively low~, of course, everyone also has a small probability of entering Parallel Roads from other Game Areas.
(During Server Merge Phase, on Parallel Roads, if distance is below 3 meters, it will display Game Area and Achievement Title information/nickname)]
The preview had been released long ago, so Yu Jiang didn’t find today’s countdown particularly surprising.
However, Leaderboard merging—that’s interesting. The competition will be unimaginably fierce. Each Game Area has its own First Echelon, and the Leaderboard will be reshuffled.
Yu Jiang opened her own Panel. Yesterday, her mind was full of Level 6 RV, and she almost forgot she had 5 Free Stat Points unused.
She thought for a moment and put all points into Agility.
After the merge, there won’t be few high Attack players. She won’t catch up by stacking more for a while. Poison Master skills don’t rely on Attack, so it’s better to boost Agility first.
Quick reactions allow dodging. Staying alive gives the chance to cast skills. Attack just needs to be adequate.
Team command doesn’t require rushing too far ahead. Focusing solely on Output makes it impossible to observe the battle situation or check Teammates’ and enemies’ Status.
Yu Jiang’s Agility reached 35 points. Fighting monsters for training during this time has also improved it somewhat, but natural growth is really too slow.
Brushing daily, brushing like crazy, and in a month, only 3 or 5 points.
Shi Xu was like this from the start. Since cooperating with her and gaining a stable medicine buying channel, they’ve been fighting Zombies every day.
The Public Screen livened up, with Players all talking about the Server Merge.
Seafood King: [After the merge, will the quantity of Supplies on Parallel Roads increase? If not, won’t competition for Supplies be even more intense?]
Player 62590: [Other Game Areas have no one, it’s not like we have no one. Why merge them into us? Supplies are already scarce, and now more people come to share them.]
Old Jar Pickled Mustard: [Still worrying about sharing Supplies? Look carefully at the last sentence of the announcement. If luck is bad and your Car drives into a Parallel Road from another Game Area, isn’t everything over?]
Han Jiang Gu Ying: [From this, it seems it’s not a sudden merge, but gradually completed over 5 days.]
Black-faced Zhang Fei Squawks: [Damn, and they tell us not to worry? Too scummy.]
Explosive Chestnut: [Wah spicy, I don’t have much Gasoline in stock. What if I can’t drive back to Personal Road then『big cry』 Any kind person, sell me some Gasoline. Don’t come if it’s price-hiked.]
Wolong: [Don’t say it, just two words: regret. Vehicle Level rises once, fuel consumption skyrockets. At first thought Doomsday would make Gasoline Energy more reliable, Battery range anxiety—who’d think the Batteries here are different from real Electric Car Batteries, and even cheaper.]
Sledgehammer 80: [Cheap my hammer. Finally saved some Crystal Coins all went to buy Batteries. Batteries are cheaper than Gasoline because of Windmills and Solar Panels. Truly cheap and low-energy consumption is Diesel.]
Quanda Zhen Guanxi: [Back then I had the Diesel option but didn’t choose it. Regret it so much my guts are green.]
Aladdin Nerve: [『smile』 Team already regrets upgrading to Level 5 Vehicle, can’t even afford the fuel.]
Thirteen Yao Hu Le: [Frog fun, even High Combat Power Big Shots can’t afford fuel. Regular Players like me don’t know when we can upgrade to Level 5 Vehicle.]
Everyone’s concerns are not without Reason. Stopping on Parallel Road and encountering a large group of players from other areas—that would be too disastrous. No one knows the situation in other areas.
Yu Jiang’s Team has already agreed to Team Up and proceed in two days, bringing the Merchant Caravan Boss along to earn some Supplies.
The Public Screen also had people offering ideas.
Lone Wolf 2009: [Form a caravan to travel together. Let’s unite.]
Player 32746: [We Players with low Skill Levels and no Team before are in too much trouble.]
A Thousand Lamps Exhaust Snow: [No matter what, compared to outsiders, everyone in 002 Game Area are our own people. During Server Merge Phase, we will organize a caravan. No Supplies needed, just keep up. We’ll charge only for protection in the middle.]
Shadow Master: [Great! This is the big picture!]
Player 32746: [Really? Is there a headcount limit?]
Heartless Water: [Everyone don’t rush. Once we discuss, we’ll post info on Trading Platform Homepage.]
A Thousand Lamps Exhaust Snow and Heartless Water looked at their earned 500 Reputation Achievement value, lips curving slightly.
Earn a Reward, then screen valuable people to develop into Team members, best to pull in some Merchant Caravan Resources.
As for useless people, who cares about their life or death.
“RV interior decoration is done, should be able to compete for this Wealth Ranking.” A Thousand Lamps Exhaust Snow clenched her fist.
Since being blocked by The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain, several High Combat Power Captains had to buy medicine at high prices, so very dissatisfied with her and Heartless Water. She sold that much medicine to barely stabilize internally, gets annoyed thinking about it.
Once the Team develops, she’ll kill that Strawberry Candy sooner or later.
A Thousand Lamps Exhaust Snow and Heartless Water also went for ‘Escape Rainforest’, with the lowest Combat Power Ranking Team member at 68.
The Team exhausted all effort to take down one Boss, A Thousand Lamps Exhaust Snow got Level 5 Alchemist Achievement, hadn’t had time to be happy when she saw the All Servers First Kill announcement.
It was the second day of the Instance. One more Boss, to fight it required waiting for Skill Cooldown and Status recovery.
This way, they couldn’t exit Deep Rainforest within the Instance Time Limit.
Even taking down two Bosses, the Instance Mission would fail. They could only give up.
The whole Team’s faces looked bad at the time.
If All Servers First Kill was taken by the highest config Team in The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain’s Team, they’d have nothing to say.
But Hand Holding Cleaver Chopping Wire didn’t go, Strawberry Candy did. Choosing the same Instance, different groups—how could they feel good.
——
Yu Jiang allocated the points and continued onward.
She wanted to seize time before Server Merge Leaderboard update to gather more Supplies.
Boxes on the Road decreased, but Medicinal Herbs Resources in Rainforest Map are still very abundant.
After leaving Rainforest Map, stockpiling Medicinal Herbs won’t be this easy.
Already left Poisonous Miasma Zone, plants on both sides of the Road seem less dense than before.
Many colorful Mushrooms appeared, some even glowing.
Not for eating, can’t be used in medicine, all look different, some with exaggerated sizes.
Yu Jiang picked several that looked most poisonous to collect, put them in Glass Jars, then stored in Time Stasis Grids.
She wanted to find more of those Tremella-like Mushrooms. Their Damage to Poisonous Insects is truly high, but unfortunately, none seen along the way.
Today’s Boxes were infuriating: 100Km total just three Supply Boxes, two were monsters, one just 5 Iron Blocks.
Yu Jiang directly brought a Basket of Medicinal Herbs back to the RV, started making money and grinding the Drug Manufacturing Experience needed for Level 6 Alchemist.
Since can’t pick up Supply Boxes, she’ll take the Level 6 Alchemist Achievement in these two days!
