Chapter 106: Leading the world, triggering passive system upgrade!

Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Leading the world, triggering passive system upgrade!"Lin Yue sent a private message asking for any alloy. Liu, why do you think he wants alloy? Last time he directly asked Guo Lei for alloy, and it wasn’t a small amount."

Xia Feihong closed the system panel and said.

Liu Kai chuckled, "Who cares what he wants it for? Whatever he’s doing doesn’t concern us. Our goal is resources, and as long as he has water, that’s enough."

Xia Feihong nodded, pushed up his glasses, glanced at Guo Lei in the distance picking chives, and let out a light humph.

"Liu, this time we must secure the water and vegetables. We can’t afford to irritate Lin Yue, who has the most resources in the whole group, like last time. If we hadn’t gotten a few bottles of water then, a few of us might have died of thirst."

Liu Kai nodded, "But it’s hard to pin down Lin Yue. He might truly be lucky, or exceptionally strong, but in this Otherworld, going solo never beats collaboration. During life or death situations, humans need to band together rather than only care for themselves."

"Definitely."

"Xia Feihong, imagine if you were Lin Yue and you were the last person left in this world, what meaning would there be in surviving?"

Listening to Liu Kai’s words, Xia Feihong nodded silently.

Indeed, according to the numbers the system released yesterday, after two disasters, more than half of Earth’s total population had decreased by a terrifying number.

Though this included large numbers of elderly and sick people and those unable to adapt to such harsh environments, in any case, it’s undoubtedly a catastrophe for all of humanity.



Although there’s not much evidence, there shouldn’t be many who’ve survived two disasters while continuously fighting the treacherous Otherworld on their own.

Banding together has become the choice for the majority since humans are social creatures after all.

This habit, originally formed within society or accustomed to the subtle constraints of rules, has led people to quickly congregate with their families, forming collective shelters like theirs.

The more people there are, the more labor force and the more harvests, but it also brings more issues like water and resource shortages.

After Guo Lei messed up last time, they’ve been looking for a breakthrough, since currently, in the group of a hundred thousand, only Lin Yue had such a massive supply of water.

But this person, purely by his own strength, acquired such vast materials, always staying ahead of everyone else.

However, Xia Feihong felt Lin Yue probably only had an abundance of water and food at most.

"Liu, now we..."

[Emergency alert, emergency alert!]

Just then, everyone in the Otherworld suddenly heard the system’s announcement!

[A survivor has been detected advancing to the Electronic Technology stage early, a survivor has been detected advancing to the Electronic Technology stage early!]

[According to the rules, the system will air-drop a reward for this survivor!]

...

[System passive update function check in progress...]


[On the 15th day of the Wasteland Era, a survivor successfully manufactured a computer and exoskeleton equipment, obtained over 200 design schematics, triggering a system passive upgrade update function.]

[The system will advance to the 3.0 update ahead of schedule]

[Update progress: 21%, 45%, 78%...100%]

[System update complete]



[Update content 1: New world channel, each person can speak twice daily in the world channel]

[Update content 2: New world ranking, the day before the disaster everyone’s survival points will be ranked, and the top ten in the world ranking will receive various levels of rewards! The top three prizes in the original group will still be awarded!]

[Update content 3: Added voice and video call features between groups and private chats, supports sending and uploading pictures and short videos, and will impose bans on system functions according to the severity of violating uploaded images, videos, and audio]

[Update content 4: Added positioning function, increased shelter coordinate function, which can be turned on or off as required]

[Update content 5: The next disaster will escalate to a dual disaster!]

[Other updates will gradually be made available in the coming days!]

[Reminder, death here means real death!]

[All humanity, good luck!]

The system’s voice faded away, but within the Otherworld, billions of individuals had already plunged into chaos.

Updating the system means more functions will be unlocked.

Yet each system update brings a harsher survival environment!

It’s safe to say that system updates are processes of increasing difficulty.

Groups around the world were already fervently discussing this update.

Of course, everyone was also speculating about the real identity of the person who manufactured the computer and exoskeleton.

And with the ability to speak on the world channel, everyone joined in.

"Whoa, I just got rid of eating raw meat and drinking blood, and someone’s already got computers and exoskeletons? Where are these big shots from?"

"Probably a group-focused individual, channeling all resources to one person?"

"Maybe a scientist or high-skilled talent; who can assemble a computer in the Otherworld as a regular person?"

"Maybe someone who repairs computers; you give him $100, and he can build you a machine. By the way, what’s an exoskeleton? Wearing mutant creature bones?"



"An exoskeleton, fully known as a mechanical power exoskeleton, is a machine wearable outfit made of a steel frame that provides extra energy for limb movement. In short, putting on an exoskeleton increases your combat ability to easily handle dozens of enemies, and while opponents are down, you’re not even out of breath."

"You still have time to figure out who that moron is? Because of that moron reaching the Electronic Technology stage, we’re now faced with a dual disaster next time! I’d better not find out who it is! Even separated by worlds, I’d take him down!"

"Wow, we can record videos now, let me share something nice"

[Warning, the system detected a video violating rules uploaded by this user. This user will receive a 12-hour ban as punishment]

"I’ve told you, the insides of the system aren’t places beyond the law, yet some moron still uploads this. Dude, I can still see it before the system retracts... so white."

"Did everyone come here by luck or what? Hmm? I seemed to have seen a black dot float down from the sky, it looks... it looks like what I saw before."

"Upstairs, the black dot in the sky is the air-drop reward, but since it isn’t the top on the leaderboard, so... that must be the one who made the computer and exoskeleton! Who did you see it from last time?"

"Hurry and tell us, whose was it?"

"+1"

"+10086!"

"To the bigwigs, last time, I saw the system air-drop to our group leader Lin Yue, do you know him?"

This person’s answer instantly set off an explosion in the world channel!
