Meng Qingyin circled the twist car three times but couldn't find anywhere to insert the chip.
Forget it, I won't study this for now. I'll quickly organize my supplies and set off!
Meng Qingyin thought about temporarily putting the smart chip in the interlayer of her camouflage bag, but when she put it in the bag, the chip was so small that she didn't hold it steady. It fell directly onto the car bed and then disappeared.
The next moment, a golden light flashed across the twist car.
"The smart chip has been bound to the enhanced twist car. Upgrade the enhanced twist car, and there will be unexpected functions!"
Unexpected functions? What could they be?
Meng Qingyin felt a little excited.
But she really had to leave now.
Six empty boxes were scattered on the ground, along with many loose supplies.
Meng Qingyin thought, why not use the empty boxes as storage boxes? They would fit perfectly in the car bed and prevent the supplies from being too messy.
When her hand touched a box, a prompt suddenly sounded: "Disassemble the supply box to get wooden board × 2. Do you want to disassemble?"
She thought for a moment, kept two empty boxes as storage, and disassembled the remaining four, obtaining "wooden board × 8."
The wooden boards were long and extended quite a bit when placed in the car bed. She took out mineral water from her backpack and put the wooden boards inside.
The other supplies were directly placed into the storage boxes, and her camouflage bag was also taken off and placed on the car bed. She felt light and rode the twist car onto the road.
On the road, she occasionally glanced at the Highway Survival Management Group, afraid of missing any important information.
But those people were just chatting, watching the various predicaments of the players, and didn't say any other information.
Meng Qingyin pedaled hard, almost causing smoke to rise.
The double harvest card and Suction Card were time-limited, especially the double harvest card, which only had a little over two hours left. She had to hurry and get more supply boxes!
When she got thirsty in between, she took out a bottle of mineral water and drank it down. She didn't bear to throw away the empty mineral water bottle, always feeling that it might come in handy someday.
After drinking, she continued to pedal.
This state of high energy continued until noon at twelve o'clock.
"Ding dong! 007 System warm reminder: 12:00-13:00 is lunch time. Please pay attention to balancing work and rest and playing games reasonably ~ Supply boxes will not refresh during lunch time."
"Newbie welfare event is here: Players are encouraged to actively share their lunch in the chat area. The more sumptuous your lunch, the more gourmet points you will receive. At the end of lunch time, the top ten players with the most gourmet points will receive a surprise gift, and other players who share their lunch will also receive a small gift ~"
The sudden two announcements caught Meng Qingyin off guard.
The double harvest card had already expired automatically, but the Suction Card still had an hour left!
She had originally intended to pedal for another hour, then open boxes, eat, and rest briefly.
But boxes wouldn't refresh from 12:00 to 13:00!
So her remaining 1 hour would just disappear like that?
This was a bug! A bug!
Meng Qingyin angrily clicked on the light screen, wanting to report this bug.
Unexpectedly, she accidentally discovered a buff at the bottom of "Personal Information": Suction Card (Remaining time 1:00:00, click to freeze)
So it wasn't a bug after all.
Meng Qingyin immediately clicked freeze and found that the time stopped flowing, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
The scorching sun was high in the sky, and the temperature had already reached 27 degrees Celsius.
The equipment Meng Qingyin wore when she first entered the game had long been taken off.
At this moment, she was only wearing a light gray slim-fit tracksuit and a white sun hat.
Sweat beads rolled down her cheeks, and her throat felt as dry as if it were smoking.
Meng Qingyin reached into the storage box behind her and pulled out a bottle of mineral water. She drank it all in one go, and her lips, mouth, and throat became moist again.
Her stomach was also rumbling.
Meng Qingyin looked back at the car bed. Besides the two storage boxes, she had acquired 4 more supply boxes, still wooden.
She took out her good friend, the electric baton, and prepared to open a box.
Suddenly, a faint "ding dong" sound rang from her wristband. The Highway Survival Management Group had a new message.
Meng Qingyin clicked in to check.
"White Fox: I'm going to die of anxiety. Haven't they discovered it yet? There's a pattern to whether danger will appear when opening supply boxes!"
"Honey Badger: Why are you anxious?"
"White Fox: This is the first time I've seen such a foolish group. I'm anxious!"
"Hyena: You're just being nosy."
"White Fox: Forget it, forget it. I won't look anymore. You guys look."
With the White Fox's departure, the management group fell silent once again.
Meng Qingyin, however, grasped the key information.
What kind of pattern?
She carefully examined the 4 new boxes. They were all wooden, and there was no difference in size, color, or even the wood grain.
There was no difference in appearance at all.
So what could the pattern be?
Meng Qingyin was not giving up. If she could discover the pattern, she wouldn't have to be so highly strung when opening boxes in the future.
She carefully observed the two supply boxes that served as storage boxes and unexpectedly found a difference!
To be precise, only one supply box was different. On the right side wooden board of the box, a very faint pattern was carved: a small snake with its tongue flicking.
And this supply box was the one from which she had opened the silver-ringed snake!
Why was she so sure? Because there were too many supplies in this supply box, she casually moved it to the car bed at the time to use as a storage box.
Could this be the pattern the White Fox was talking about?
And the reason this pattern hadn't been discovered yet had a lot to do with where it was carved.
The pattern was not carved on the lid of the supply box but on a corner of the right side of the box body. Moreover, the pattern was very small and the mark was faint.
For players, their first reaction upon seeing a supply box was excitement, and they wouldn't even think about observing the box.
Furthermore, after opening the supply box, they would directly disassemble it to obtain wooden boards, and the pattern would disappear with it.
Even if someone like her used a supply box as a storage box, they wouldn't put too much thought into it.
Even she only observed the supply boxes after seeing the message in the survival group. Other players, busy searching for boxes and moving forward, would have even less leisure to observe storage boxes.
Of course, there was another possibility.
Some players had discovered this pattern but had not revealed it.
After all, with Chen Leying as a precedent, who would do such thankless tasks?
Therefore, the White Fox concluded that no player had discovered this pattern and thus complained in the group.
This just benefited her.
With this discovery, Meng Qingyin carefully examined the 4 new supply boxes again. The right side of the boxes was clean, without a single mark, not even a scratch.
Afraid of missing a pattern, Meng Qingyin thoroughly inspected the entire supply box, not even letting go of the bottom.
Still no pattern.
She couldn't tell if she was disappointed or something else.
After all, danger also meant high returns.
With the electric baton in hand, she didn't have to worry about venomous snakes or mice jumping out of the box.
Now, without any danger, it also meant that there wouldn wouldn't be a big harvest.
Thinking this, she opened the first supply box.
