Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

Chapter 115 The Situation of the Water World

After all that commotion, it was already 3 p.m. when everyone finally quieted down.

The group sat in the operations room, looking at each other with some embarrassment on their faces.

"Ahem, let me explain," Song Mingyu coughed, breaking the awkward silence. She then received several resentful glares in return.

"Well, to be honest, this is actually my fault. In order to stabilize your spirits, I used magical energy to activate your spirits. While this allowed everyone to heal quickly, the side effect is that your spirits are too active, and you've become a bit unrestrained."

"Because everyone received psychological attacks, I was very stressed. Once everyone had recovered, I relaxed and started to let loose, which led to an absurd psychological test. It made everyone a bit confused, and that's my fault. I'm very sorry for causing everyone trouble." Song Mingyu bowed decisively in apology.

"...Never mind, it's the first time this has happened to anyone. We'll be more prepared next time." Su Li sighed. "Let's just let this go. There's no real loss anyway. Just don't let it happen again."

Looking back on her constant attempts to flirt with Song Mingyu, Su Li felt like she could dig a three-bedroom, one-living room, two-bathroom house out of her toes.

Sophia snorted coldly, but did not refute, which meant she had forgiven Song Mingyu.

Ivan scratched his head. "As long as Sister Song doesn't say anything out of line, that's fine."

Song Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously let go of her hair, which had been wrapped around her fingers several times and was now a bit curly. She then added, "But I have to say something here: after you travel to other worlds, you will still need to take the psychological test."

Our civilization has only provided us with the bare minimum of protection.

If we're unlucky enough to witness things we shouldn't during our journey through the world, we might receive complex information, leaving behind psychological problems. These could include becoming fanatical, developing mental disorders, or suffering from other mental illnesses.

"In the future, I will conduct psychological tests after everyone has calmed down a bit."

Su Li nodded in agreement. Mental damage is a very serious matter. Nobody wants to unknowingly succumb to madness.

Su Li clapped her hands, drawing the attention of her companions.

"Alright, Song Mingyu has finished her work. Come to the operations room, I'll share my findings."

The group arrived at the operations room. Su Li walked up to the whiteboard, tapped on it, then connected the whiteboard to the manual and projected a screenshot onto it.

"Everyone, please take a look at this data first."

A screenshot of data was displayed on the whiteboard.

Based on the blue planet

Gravity: Approximately 40%

[Internal air quality: Normal]

Internal pressure: Normal

External pressure: 1/5 of Earth's surface

[Outside air: Oxygen content is less than 3%, and the main components are nitrogen and carbon dioxide]

Su Li tapped the screenshot with her finger and looked at the solemn-faced team members, saying:

"As can be seen from the image, the gravity of this world is only 40% of that of Earth, and the oxygen content outside is extremely low, while the atmospheric pressure is below the lower limit that normal people can adapt to, which is insufficient for our survival."

Under normal circumstances, a person can tolerate a low pressure of 0.3 atmospheres, the standard pressure of Earth. Su Li and the others are all superhumans, so they can tolerate even lower pressure without exploding. However, it would be very uncomfortable to move around in them.

“So, we need to wear oxygen masks when we go out to explore this world,” Su Li said. “Fortunately, we have oxygen generators, so we won’t be unable to go out and explore. We haven’t made many of these two items yet, so we’ll go and make some more oxygen masks and oxygen tanks later. Remember to replenish your oxygen every time you come back from an exploration.”

After discussing atmospheric pressure, Zurich began to talk about the environment here.

"As you've probably all looked out the window, we're at sea this time."

If you zoom in and adopt a satellite view, you can see that Zu Li's train is stopped on the sea. The railway tracks, laid out on the azure sea at the same level as the water, appear and disappear amidst the waves, looking very strange and illogical.

All I can say is that Eternal Game is truly amazing.

Not only can railways be laid on the sea, but they can even be laid in the air to form aerial trains.

However, this is also limited. It can only be laid out like this if there are islands on the sea or in the air. The maximum distance is 50 kilometers. If there are no islands for a long distance, the train will enter the seabed or become a dead end bridge in the air.

"Besides the air quality issue, we also need to consider how to adapt to the ocean."

Su Li looked at Song Mingyu and said, "Song Mingyu, let's test the properties of this water first. Only after we know the properties of the water can we continue to formulate our next course of action."

"I'm going out of the train to take a look around. You and Ivan remember to shield me and heal me."

Seeing that Su and the other person nodded, Su Li changed into her usual equipment, putting on an oxygen mask and oxygen tank.

Then he went into the disinfection room inside the operations room and closed the door.

Su Li first tested the outside atmospheric pressure. After operating the control panel, a sound of air being released was heard, and the atmospheric pressure in the disinfection chamber slowly decreased.

As the pressure lessened, Su Li gradually felt a tightness in his chest. His heart rate increased, and he felt a suffocating sensation of oxygen deprivation. He quickly took a few breaths of oxygen.

But after adapting for a while, Su Li felt the dizziness slowly disappear. Her body gradually adapted to the low-pressure environment. Although she still felt unwell, she was already able to fight normally.

Su Li gave an OK sign to the people observing her, then opened the door and walked out.

As soon as Su Li stepped outside, he felt the scorching sun. Standing under its blinding rays, he felt as if he had returned to the salt flats of his first world. This sunlight was no less intense than the afternoon sun in the salt flats. However, the temperature wasn't as hot as he had imagined.

Su Li took out a bucket, filled it with water, and then returned to the disinfection room, closing the train door.

Mixed air gradually rushed into the disinfection chamber, and Su Li removed her oxygen mask.

"It's possible to move around, but it's a bit difficult. Tsk, if we were to fight in the water, it would be tough."

Su Li picked up the bucket and first used the system to check it.

[Alien Seawater: Not Drinkable]

As usual, the most basic identification techniques provided by the system can only identify a pitifully small amount of information.

However, Zurich has a solution.

Su Li opened the manual and found Zheng Hongyuan. Then she selected to trade seawater.

A short while later, Zheng Hongyuan traded a small booklet over.

Su Li checked it; it was Zheng Hongyuan's test report on the seawater. The report stated that the seawater contained very little oxygen, was generally weakly acidic, and was not drinkable. It would cause some harm to the skin of Earthlings, but not much. For Black Iron grade seawater, this harm was completely negligible.

Su Li passed the report to everyone, "Now we can go into the water with peace of mind. After confirming the survival conditions, let's start planning the route."

Su Li took out a map and placed it on the whiteboard. Sophia recognized it as her initial item map.

"I used the last map. As you can see from this map, this isn't the kind of sea map with islands everywhere."

Looking at the map, there are only a few scattered small islands at the starting point; most of the map shows the sea, with only variations in color shades.

“Does that mean we’ll have to fight underwater?” Ivan said.

“That’s right. If we continue, after 50 kilometers, our train will be running on the seabed, and that will continue until the last day,” Su Li stated.

Sofia asked the crucial question: "Can our train move underwater?"

"Yes, our vehicle is sealed. But we face a problem: the exhaust gases from the combustion are discharged directly to the seabed. I'm worried that the water will directly force the boiler in, causing damage."

So the exhaust fumes can only be released into the car. But our car doesn't have an air purification system. So these next few days, we need to carefully control the air quality inside the car.

Just thinking about it gave Su Li a headache. "If that doesn't work, we can keep venting air out of the sealed sterilization chamber in the operations room. It's a bit of a hassle though. Oh, right, there's actually a lot of air in the training ground; we can make use of that."

Thinking about this, Su Li felt excited. No matter how cunning the system was, it still let me get some benefits!

With the survival issue temporarily resolved, the next step is to design a route.

The map generated by this system is like an aerial photograph; it lacks contour lines and markers. However, you can still discern the depth of the sea by its color. Those areas that are completely black are clearly deep sea.

In addition, there are some light blue shallow sea areas, as well as many different colors, which look like fancy plot trigger points deliberately created in the game.

The map, so vivid and clear, instantly reminded Sophia of her experience in Howling Valley. "Could this be a place like the Crystal Feather Serpent's lair?"

Looking at the brightly colored location, Su Li was also a little unsure. "It looks a bit like... and a bit like a coral reef. We might as well go check it out. By the way, what is the energy level of this world?"

Ivan flipped through the system records in his manual: "Boundless Sea, world energy level 0.8, challenge level 1, same as the previous world."

"It seems that titanium ore can no longer be mined in this world. Hopefully, this world won't be one of those major events."

Su Li first pretended to pray to her old friend, hoping he would protect her from any major problems, then picked up the map and began planning her daily schedule.

The colored area on the map was quite large. Zurich and his team were traveling according to plan, and would arrive at the colored area no earlier than the fourth day, and no later than the morning of the sixth day. This left them with plenty of time to adjust their plans.
