After a comfortable hot bath and a more comfortable exercise, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian went to the restaurant to enjoy a buffet.
Although the box lunch was delicious, it was still a bit worse than the sumptuous buffet. After a long day of exhaustion, the two with great appetites ate their stomachs and drank drinks and went to the entertainment hall to play happily.
Interestingly, there was a simulation game machine in the entertainment hall, which was the aircraft simulation training. The two of them played the game and felt the fun of the aircraft in advance.
Games in this world were self-contained, and some simulation games reflected reality. While Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian played, they also collected a lot of information.
After playing, they were waiting for tonight's show.
Not only were they waiting, thousands of tourists were also waiting, but what was surprising was that they waited until late at night and did not wait for the light curtain of the previous day.
It was not until five o'clock in the morning that a huge light curtain suddenly unfolded in the sky, and the new issue of "Zhuoyuan City Tourism Festival Highlights" was officially staged. The dazzling light and loud sound woke the sleeping tourists one after another.
The big screen in the treasure ship's room suddenly lit up, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian woke up instantly, and then they saw the edited program playing on the screen in the room.
After patiently watching the show, the two also understood why today's show was edited so late, because on the second day of the celebration, some tourists were eliminated.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian clearly saw that the power of the iceberg glacier was far greater than they had imagined. Since noon yesterday, from time to time, tourists fell into the glacier because their bodies were frozen and unable to maintain the balance of the plank.
Lucky people could save themselves in time, but more people, without the strength to struggle, gradually sank into the water.
At the same time, conflicts between tourists broke out, some tourists brought food with them before the sudden change, and were lucky to save it.
But other tourists were hungry and thirsty, and after their rationality broke, they ignored the risk of being discovered and violently snatch other people's food. During the fight, it some accidentally fell into the water.
Of course, there were more tourists who didn't complete their mission. Among them, some of them simply gave up because they couldn't hold on halfway through the row, and were washed back beyond the starting line by the current.
There were still some people who had been insisting, but their strength was not enough. If they moved forward two meters, they would step back one meter. It took a long time and still couldn´t complete the task.
Less than three hours before the start of the new day celebrations, after it was determined that the tourists who were still in the water could not complete the task, the wooden boards under the tourists separated into pieces, and the tourists fell into the ice water, failing to change the gradually sinking ending.
The host of the variety show was schadenfreude in a regretful tone. The tourists watching the show seemed to be clenched by an invisible giant hand, their backs were chilled, and their hearts were terrified.
What conspiracy did they fall into, and why did they encounter such a bizarre thing? What to do after that?
At the end of the program, detailed statistics were released. On the second day of the celebration, a total of 407 people were eliminated, and nearly a quarter of the tourists were eliminated.
The remaining nearly 1,600 tourists, who were still in the mood to rest after watching the show, gathered under the ramp and communicated with each other anxiously and in panic.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had eaten a hearty buffet breakfast, so they simply stayed on the first floor of the treasure ship and waited.
As the time got closer and closer to eight o'clock, the scene near the starting line in the distance began to change. When eight o'clock arrived, a familiar water flow gushed out from the top of the ramp, engulfing all the tourists on the ramp into the water flow and rushing down.
Because they were already mentally prepared, no tourists exclaimed this time. Everyone held the wood pulp of the planks. After the water flow stabilized, they desperately climbed up the planks.
This was not a metaphor, but a fact, because today's scene was the volcanic lava.
The fireworks fired by the treasure ship also confirmed this:
"2333 Annual Zhuoyuan City Tourism Festival Celebrates the Third Day of Carnival: A Journey to Magma!"
Of course, the water flow under the board was definitely not real magma, otherwise the tourists would melt immediately, but the reddish water flow and the scorching temperature had undoubtedly become the biggest obstacle for tourists.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, who were in the treasure boat, escaped being swept away by the current, and they could step into their own boat directly from the treasure ship after the water flow stabilized.
Ten low-level energy crystals had been installed on their gem ship, filling all the grooves. Driven by these energy crystals, the speed of the gem boat itself was not slow. With a few strokes of the two, the gem boat could dash out for a long time.
Xia Ruize did not forget to row the boat, but his focus was on observing the surrounding environment.
For three consecutive days, from the forest to the glaciers to the magma, the surrounding environment was very real, making people feel as if they were really in it. Xia Ruize observed it carefully every day, just to learn from the experience of creating illusions.
Although he was still not sure whether the surrounding environment was the result of technology or a large-scale illusion, for him, it was real enough to have the meaning of learning.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian were not the first to rush to the starting line. In fact, after the program aired this morning, the tourists all knew that if they fought hard, they might not be able to complete the task, but if they did not fight, they would definitely be eliminated. People who before dared to stay outside the starting line to be lazy, all rush to the starting line.
The environment of volcanic magma gave people the feeling that it was hot, very hot, especially hot, and it didn't take long to draw a sweat.
Fortunately, the lava under the boat was not real, otherwise the wooden boards and wood oars in the hands of the tourists couldn´t be kept, but the temperature was high, and a lot of sweating took away the water in the body, and soon some people were dry, thirsty and had chapped lips.
The gem boat could adjust the temperature in a small range when the energy was sufficient to make the users on the boat more comfortable, so Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian were in much better condition than others.
But they only needed to look at the air around them distorted by the heat to know how bad the environment was.
Another difficulty was that today's current was obviously thicker, and it took more force to row forward. The tourists who stayed behind all complained, but they dared not give up. They could only row the oars while cursing.
Da Hu and Xiao Hu rowed around a group of tourists and approached Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian. Da Hu greeted with a sweaty smile:
"Brother Cheng, Brother Xia, how are you?"
Dahu rowed the oars in his hands diligently. On the first day he met Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, he felt that these two were good. The performance of the two consecutive days also proved that they were able to win the first place twice, and their strength was extraordinary. So, he couldn't help but approach the two of them, hoping to have a good relationship and help each other with anything.
"The treasure ship is really good to live in. I hope I can get another rest coupon today."
Xia Ruize replied with a smile.
Da Hu was very envious. They didn't get on the treasure ship last night. They grabbed a room at the hotel on the shore and took a rest.
"Da Hu, how do you think the difficulty is compered to before?"
Cheng Huaiqian glanced at the sweat on Dahu's head and said tentatively.
Da Hu and Xiao Hu had experienced many missions in the Bamboo Silk Area, and they should have their own judgments on the difficulty of the mission world. Cheng Huaiqian was a little curious how Da Hu thought about the difficulty of this mission world.
