114: Longjiang Impression City

Longjiang City?

Xiao Yun was slightly surprised to hear that place.

It was a city in the neighboring province, but it was very close to Haibei City, only twenty minutes by high-speed rail and an hour and a half by car.

However, it wasn't a provincial capital city, and Xiao Yun hadn't expected that place to have the Baksh map.

“The allocation of restricted areas in each region is calculated based on the local GTI material ranking. As long as a city enters the top 100 cities nationwide, it can obtain the restricted area for the Baksh map. Entering the top 50 cities grants access to the Aerospace Base.”

As if sensing Xiao Yun's confusion, Qian Gang explained.

Xiao Yun nodded silently, roughly understanding the information.

“Then if we go to the restricted area in Longjiang City to run knives, will the materials we bring out be counted for Haibei City or Longjiang City?”

“Neither, because we are not professional GTI operatives.”

“I see.”

Xiao Yun immediately understood why Qian Gang had made this suggestion.

After all, as a teacher, he was considered a public servant. If he contributed to the achievements of another province's city, the leaders of his own province and city would definitely have an opinion.

“How about it, Xiao Yun, want to go take a look?”

At this moment, Liu Shihhan was also eager to try.

“The Baksh map is said to be very difficult to extract from, and since Longjiang City has a restricted area for this map, it means the operatives there must be even stronger! At the same time, the drop rate inside the restricted area will be higher, with more chances to find big red and big gold!”

“What, you want to go too?”

“Of course, who doesn’t want to find more big red?”

Seeing Miss Liu's current fascination with the restricted area, Xiao Yun couldn't help but sigh. She was definitely addicted.

“Anyway, if the leaders come, we can take the high-speed rail and then a taxi, and we’ll be at school in half an hour. How about it? Want to go take a look together?”

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go!”

Xiao Yun said, quickly getting up.

Since even the teacher wasn't worried about delaying things, what was he worried about?

......

Xiao Yun and his group took the high-speed rail and quickly arrived at Longjiang City.

Once there, the few of them didn't say another word and directly hailed a taxi to the entrance of the Baksh restricted area.

The entrance to Baksh was located in Longjiang Impression City, the largest shopping mall in Longjiang City. There were many people coming and going here, and most of them were wearing at least three sets of gear. The number of people shopping and running knives was almost fifty-fifty.

“There are so many people coming to the restricted area to run knives here!”

Seeing the crowds along the way, Liu Shihhan was very surprised.

Compared to Longjiang Impression City, Haibei North Port had become a niche treasure spot.

Of course, this was only for those who ran knives.

For ordinary tourists, North Port still had quite a lot of people.

“Escort! Escort! Platinum 2 dragging 1!”

“Are there any big brothers to team up with me? I'll split the materials with you after extraction.”

“Half-geared knife running! Are there any Shu Shu to team up and eat together!”

The entrance to the restricted area was in the very center of the plaza, a huge artificial fountain.

Many people gathered around it, most of them recruiting teammates.

“It’s really lively.”

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yun couldn't help but sigh.

A top 100 city was truly different. There were at least a thousand people running knives, both inside and outside.

“Can the Baksh map, which is so small, accommodate so many people?”

Seeing so many people around, Xiao Yun was excited but also slightly worried.

Even with the Babel Tower area included, the entire Baksh map could only be considered a medium-sized map.

In the game, with 10 teams and 30 players, the map was already very crowded.

And according to the restricted area setting in this world, these hundreds, or even thousands, of people entering the map would all be squeezed into the same match.

Wouldn't they encounter someone every two steps, and a full-auto bush every two steps?

“Don’t worry, there seem to be a lot of people now, but in reality, there won’t be that many.”

Qian Gang explained at this time.

“Although there are so many people here, most of them are looking for teammates. They won't enter the map until they find teammates, and even if they find teammates, they might disperse after one game.”

“True.”

Xiao Yun strongly agreed. Based on his experience with games in his previous life, running knives was indeed like this.

In this kind of game where you only gain or lose, most people are selfish. Even if they find teammates, most won't play more than two rounds before dispersing.

Moreover, in this real restricted area world, entering the restricted area costs real money!

“So, how many people are there in one match?”

“At most two to three hundred.”

“No, that’s still a lot!”

Xiao Yun was immediately speechless.

Two to three hundred people squeezed into one Baksh, what kind of scene would that be?

“It’s not bad. The main thing is that everyone doesn’t enter the map at the same time. They enter in batches. For example, at the beginning of a match, 50 people enter, and after 5 minutes, there might only be 10 left. Then, at this time, another 50 people will enter, and some of them will be eliminated quickly, while those who entered at the beginning might have already extracted. So, in ten minutes, although 100 people entered, only a dozen or so remain after ten minutes.”

“I understand what you mean now.”

Xiao Yun immediately nodded.

No wonder Qian Gang was a teacher; he immediately analyzed the situation clearly.

In other words, although Baksh here wouldn't be so crowded upon entry, people would continuously arrive, wave after wave.

If one were to search for items in the restricted area and then extract, they would at most encounter a few teams. However, if they were to continuously clear the map inside, they wouldn't have enough bullets.

This situation was very suitable for going on a losing streak.

The best strategy for running knives on this map was to immediately teleport to high-resource areas upon entering and frantically search for items, regardless of life or death.

Anyway, Xiao Yun had a secure container, so it didn't matter if he was killed by others.

After coming out, he would eat and drink at the surrounding mall, play some billiards, go online at an internet cafe, and then re-enter when the next match started.

Moreover, if he died, he could still receive the losing streak reward from the bounty chest, which was killing two birds with one stone.

However, since he was currently recording the battle and had Liu Shihhan and Qian Gang with him, Xiao Yun still wanted his record to look good.

Just as Xiao Yun and the others were observing by the fountain, various figures suddenly appeared around the fountain.

“Ah, damn it, why did I get lost!”

“Time’s up? I didn’t even notice!”

“Damn it, it’s all your fault, big bald head! If you hadn’t wasted so much time with us, would we have gotten lost?”

“It’s not our fault you guys were camping at the extraction point! If you camp, then no one gets out!”

“Bro, I had hundreds of thousands worth of stuff in my pocket! Why didn’t anyone pull the lever this round!”

“A bunch of lunatics, all of them lunatics!”

“Damn it, my equipment was worth over fifty thousand!”

More than twenty people emerged this time, apparently having overstayed their time in the previous action with no one pulling the lever, resulting in all of them getting lost inside.

After coming out, the group erupted into an argument, with no one backing down.

Only a few, resigned to their bad luck, waved their hands, preparing to gear up and enter the next round of the restricted area.

“It seems this place is indeed brutal.”

Seeing this scene, Liu Shihhan also frowned slightly.

“The new round should have just begun. Let’s go, we’ll go in and check the situation.”

Saying that, Xiao Yun took the lead and walked forward.

“Hey! Wait, Xiao Yun, we haven’t geared up yet!”

......

“You have entered Baksh!”
