It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger

Last night the players reached a consensus and shared the cost of buying a bonfire.

After all, there is no fire source at night, and the first threat is the sudden drop in temperature.

Second, it is because it is stated in the rules.

There will be soul insects at night, so be careful.

I don't know what the Soul Bug is, but it appears in horror games.

They are definitely not good things.

Sun Xingye coughed twice with a pair of big dark circles under his eyes, and his coughs were particularly loud in the quiet environment.

Some players couldn't help but look at him, while others pretended not to see him.

Sun Xingye came to Xiao Huai's side.

"Um... Azhuolang, I know you don't like me, but I am one of them after all. If you can help him like this, I think I can also do my part."

Xiao Huai looked at him, without any extra emotion in his eyes.

Human words are inherently the least trustworthy.

Especially in horror games, everyone can pretend to be a helpful gentleman.

Seeing Xiao Huai silent, Sun Xingye was speechless for a moment.

He still felt scared when he thought about how he almost died at the hands of Xiao Huai yesterday.

Scared and angry.

But now, since I can't beat him, I have to give in.

It’s not just a way of survival in the game, but also a way of survival in society.

Sun Xingye said: "Last night, he woke up at night and looked for something. I think he was looking for water, or getting some water."

His gaze drifted into the distance, where there was a big pit.

A cup and some plastic wrap were placed in the pit.

This is a water extraction device that utilizes the large temperature difference between day and night in the desert and uses the condensation method.

Simply put, the principle is that water in the sand evaporates during the day to form water vapor.

When water vapor rises and encounters a thin film with a lower temperature, it condenses into small water droplets.

But this method is extremely inefficient, producing only a few drops of water at most.

These few drops of water could not be shared with others, not to mention that they now had to hurry to Aledi Village.

It is completely understandable that he conducted condensation experiments secretly and at a distance.

People are selfish. It is basically impossible to share supplies without ensuring their own survival.

Ji Yelin also recognized this simple condensation device at a glance.

"I've observed this desert. It's a little peculiar. The water content in the sand is so scarce that even if you leave it there for two days, water may not form."

The girl who had called Xiao Huai over earlier nodded in agreement: "So, he wasted his energy doing something like this last night?"

Not only did I not get any water, but I also consumed more energy.

No wonder it looked like this this morning.

This must be desert syndrome, extreme dehydration.

"Then what?" Xiao Huai suddenly spoke.

His eyes fell on Sun Xingye.

Sun Xingye's pupils dilated slightly. It turned out that he had been listening to what he was saying.

"He drank his own blood." Sun Xingye told everything he saw last night without reservation.

Last night, the boy was probably going crazy with thirst, and Rule One said it again.

"When you're extremely thirsty, you can choose to drink your own blood. It will be fine."

Xiao Huai turned to look at the boy and lifted up the sleeve of his arm.

A tooth mark appeared in front of everyone.

The blood on it had dried, but Xiao Huai bent down and took a deep breath.

There seemed to be a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Shh" sound!

Everyone's eyes widened, their mouths opened blankly, and they stood there with a bewildered expression.

Under the scorching sun, Xiao Huai's left hand was directly cut by him, and blood kept dripping down.

He grabbed the boy's mouth and forced his blood into the boy's mouth.

As drops of blood fell into the boy's mouth, his lips began to tremble.

Like a person about to fall off a cliff grabbing the last straw, he held Xiao Huai's hand tightly.

Xiao Huai did not push him away, but let the blood fall into the boy's mouth bit by bit.

Quiet……

It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

No one dared to speak at this time.

Time stands still, and any movement can break the tranquility.

Even Sun Xingye was stunned. He couldn't believe that the powerful NPC would feed a player's blood.

Feed people with blood.

This was something he couldn't believe even in his dreams.

I can't believe that this would happen in a horror game where everyone is in danger.

Lu Yuanshi looked at Xiao Huai quietly, and there seemed to be a bottomless pool of water in his eyes.

The blood flow slowed down and Xiao Huai pulled his hand back.

He stood up, blood dripping from his fingertips onto the sand.

Amidst everyone's shocked expressions, his expression remained calm and unmoved, seeming out of place.

It was as if what he had just done was just a simple thing like eating and sleeping.

"Azhuolang...what are you doing..." Cheng Shan spoke first.

He watched from the side for a long time.

He had been to the desert before. Players like that boy were considered a burden and would be abandoned by the team.

Xiao Huai raised his hand, gently opened his lips, and licked the wound with the tip of his tongue. After all, the blood couldn't be wasted like that.

He whispered, "I'm curious about what he's been through."

Ji Yelin came back to her senses. "What he saw was just an illusion caused by desert syndrome. As our guide, do you want to get into trouble before us?"

Xiao Huai raised his chin with mockery in his eyes.

"Are you worried about my safety now? I don't think so. Aren't there many of you who wish I would die soon?"

He didn't look at anyone, but everyone knew who Xiao Huai was referring to.

Sun Xingye's face turned ugly and he subconsciously turned his head away.

"But...why are you doing this?" Ji Yelin couldn't help but ask.

Xiao Huai glanced lazily at the boy lying on the ground.

"He fell into a coma not only due to dehydration, the more important reason was the soul worm." Xiao Huai said casually.

There was a hint of sinisterness in his eyes, and a strange smile played on the corner of his mouth.

"If you want to be like him, go ahead and drink your own blood."

After Xiao Huai finished speaking, he turned and walked forward.

At this time, the boy lying on the ground gradually opened his eyes and woke up.

Everyone quickly packed up their things and followed.

Xiao Huai's fingertips trembled slightly, trying to pretend to be sophisticated.

He spoke those words while enduring the pain of blood loss.

If you can't tell them your guess directly, then make them respect the rules.

Without camels and water sources, ordinary humans cannot walk for three days in the desert.

Nothing happened to Sun Xingye that night, but something happened to the boy who drank his own blood.

So, both rules are false.

However, it is still impossible to draw a definitive conclusion as to where the specific problem lies.

Xiao Huai smelled a smell from the boy that was not bloody.

Especially the teeth marks on the arms.

The smell is faint, and one could even say it has a strange aroma.

What if the soul worm drilled into his wound?

Was he hallucinating due to dehydration or was it due to the soul worm?

Azhuolang once said to him.

"I don't know what happens to you outsiders at night. Sometimes you wake up dead."

Why would I wake up dead?

There is a possibility that they injured themselves, drank their own blood, and developed symptoms like the boy just now.

Immersed in hallucinations, unable to wake up, he continued to sleep, his dehydration worsened, and there was only one way out: death.

If you want to figure out what's wrong with Rule 1.

Why not try it yourself and see what happens after bloodletting.

Xiao Huai lowered his eyes and walked slowly forward. Suddenly, a figure appeared beside him and gently held his left hand.
