The male protagonist survives in the infinite game by supporting his wife

Chapter 170: 1-mile Migration Journey (19)

The bottom of the pool was pitch black. The entangled snake tail loosened in the water, and the body sank and quickly floated up.

The snake's tail was churning, and the water in the pool was freezing cold, with only the surface layer still having some warmth.

Shekh was not injured by the impact, but he was almost frostbitten by the sudden impact.

The two swam out from the center of the pool, and by the time they had fully adapted to the water temperature, they finally reached the shore.

The ground was warm from the sun, so he took out a banana leaf and spread it on the ground for Shekh to sit on.

"Is your tail injured?"

"No." This was not enough of a shock. Sheh sat down and ate a few bites of fruit. After resting, he stood up and continued walking.

It's difficult to walk along the shore, but there is no other way, so one can only take big steps on the gray-white bedrock that is exposed above the water.

After walking for more than three hours, the bushes became thinner and the two men stepped onto dry and solid land.

The soft land and the slightly reddish rock meet, and Shi Jinzhe decided to rest in the transition zone between the two landforms tonight.

After dinner, he counted the supplies for the second time. The food for the ten days was taken from the forest, so not much was consumed. Only the water was a little more.

The rain delayed their progress, and they only collected one day's rainwater. They didn't dare use the water in the river because it was too dirty. Fortunately, most of the water consumed was snow water stored previously, so there was enough drinking water.

From the empty buckets, Shi Jinzhe took out a few and put a dozen fish in them for Shehe.

They had less than a third of their fuel packs used up, so it was plenty and they didn't have to worry about fuel and electricity consumption.

In addition to what is given at the beginning, there are also many kinds of wild fruits in the space, and they can replenish vitamins at any time.

Sheh picked out a wax apple from the classified fruits and said, "It tastes like a pear, which is not very sweet, but it is juicy and thirst-quenching."

"It can supplement nutrition, so it's okay to eat more."

At the end of the day, she built a fire to light up the night, and when they left the rain forest, it became cool again.

With toolbox in hand, he began to inspect the car.

Sheh sat on a rock. "One hundred players, I don't know how the others are progressing."

"Why do you care about other people?"

"It's not that I'm concerned. They're going to get into trouble. They should have a lot of props. I feel like you'd be at a disadvantage if you didn't get any."

There are power-up props in every copy, but Shi Jinzhe cannot pick them up and can only plunder those activated by others. It would be easier if he could get the props.

Sheh thought about countermeasures, and after much deliberation, he decided to threaten the system.

[Come out, why can't Shi Jinzhe find the props? Give him the permission. 】

【I can’t do it.】

What does "not enough" mean?

[I just can’t do it.] When the system saw Sheh was about to raise his hand again, it quickly said, [I can’t do it even if you threaten me. This vulnerability cannot be fixed.]

[If it can't be fixed, then what is the game bug fix you mentioned before the bomb site? ]

[It's different. It just forcibly chases back the escaping players, but the loophole still exists. There will still be cheating players and escaping players in the game. What the system can do is to constantly chase them back and force them to participate in the game. ]

【waste. 】

The system saves itself: […This is all to let them know not to trust others easily. ]

[After all, this is still your problem, so why should he be held responsible for the mistake? ]

【So this is not compensating him with you. 】

Shekh's expression eased a little, but he was still suspicious of one question.

[If he can't get the props, then what am I? Are you lying to me or to him? Give me an explanation. ]

【……】

He really dug a hole for himself.

After careful consideration, the system picked the one who was easy to bully, [Lie to him, you are not just a tool. ]

[Tell me, what did Shi Jinzhe do to win your heart so much that you gave me to him…]

The crackling sound of electricity interrupted Sheh. She called the system twice, but there was no response.

I pulled the ribbon upwards a little, but the system didn't respond. I pulled it a little more, still nothing.

Sheh put down his hand and said, "He actually left..."

"What's really gone?"

Shi Jinzhe closed the hood and thought Sheh was talking to him.

"System, I asked it something." Shehhe told Shi Jinzhe about the conversation just now, "I am not completely a prop. The system is unable to repair the loopholes of cheating players."

"No ability?"

Shi Jinzhe put down his tools and sat down next to Sheh. "Didn't you mean it?"

"He said he was incapable, and he ran away when asked again. He didn't even threaten me."

Shi Jinzhe thought to himself, this system that is beyond ordinary people's cognition still has things it can't do, is it really not fooling Sheh?

“This loophole…”

"This loophole is not good for the game." Shehe remembered what Shi Jinzhe had told her.

“The game needs players to help it do things. Since props and skills are random, it doesn’t matter whether they are given to normal players or cheating players.

Two people use one card, isn't it just two people working for one dollar? Wouldn't it do such a profitable business?"

"Indeed, the game is so stingy. Why doesn't it use the opportunity?" Shi Jinzhe silently said the word "incompetent". "The loophole may not be caused by the game."

While he was thinking, the sound of stones rolling was heard on the open space.

They both looked back and found that it was a small monkey, a child, who had strayed into their territory.

It was so frightened by Shekh that it rolled over and ran into the darkness using its hands and feet to leave the dangerous place.

Shi Jinzhe threw a banana tree over from behind, his soles rubbing the red soil under his feet: "There are fewer animals in the back. The geology here is like sandstone, which is not suitable for most animals to survive."

"As long as the car can go."

"Are you tired from walking these days?"

"I don't want to stand if I can sit, and I don't want to sit if I can lie down." When Sheh saw the monkey coming back to pick up bananas, he threw two more over.

Little monkey, ignorance is fearless. When you grow up, you will not be so unguarded.

Sheh turned around and said, "Go back to bed. I want to leave here early."

Shi Jinzhe followed the man with his gaze, took a step forward, and hugged him from behind, "Don't leave if you can still hold him."

Shekh lay flat on his back and looked up at the sky, "I thought the stars could be as big as animals."

"The animals here are all large in size, and the plants are also normal in size." Shi Jinzhe walked past the window. The peony and lisianthus were still blooming under the maintenance of vitality.

"The fruits we ate along the way were not abnormal. This is a world where only animals mutate."

"I don't know if there are people in this world. Could they be giants?" Sheh was still thinking about this question when he was sent back to the car.

"Don't think about anyone else, just think about me."
