Survivor's Guide to Survival

Chapter 3 Global Sleep

Ning Xiao stared at the two lines of Chinese characters that appeared on the phone, and lowered his eyes to wonder if it was a prank played by a researcher before he left.

"Only those who are lucky enough to be survivors, are you lucky enough?" The number is unknown, and the content is weird.He just got off the off-road vehicle and got on the boat when he received such a message on his phone.

However, Ning Xiao quickly denied his idea. Most of Jiutian Island blocked the signal. For a long time, the mobile phone can only be used as a music player and a simple reaction operation game, so many researchers Within two weeks after arriving at Sky Base, he gave up this entertainment and chose to enrich his spare time with more internal equipment for entertainment.Therefore, he didn't think there would be any researcher who knew that he hadn't thrown away his mobile phone today, nearly three years after he came to the island.

So, who sent this message?Ning Xiao squinted at the content of the text message, and noticed that the position where the signal was displayed on the top of the phone was still blank, which made the whole incident even more confusing.

"Colonel Ning, the ship is about to leave, come in quickly." A young sailor came out of the cabin, saw Ning Xiao still standing on the deck, staring at the phone screen, stunned, and reminded in a low voice he said.

Ning Xiao took back the phone, nodded to thank the young man, and followed him into the cabin.

As Ning Ou entered the cabin, the ship whistled melodiously, and the ship from Jiutian Island to Huaguo Xisha Port slowly left the Jiutian Island wharf.The old captain with rich driving experience fiddled with the sophisticated instruments in the cockpit, and set the driving route in twos and twos. After that, he didn't need to do anything, just stare at the screen and adjust the position occasionally.

No one noticed that after three sirens sounded, in a certain laboratory of the Jiutian Island Cangqiong Base behind them, a beam of white light suddenly broke through the barriers and shot straight into the sky, followed by circles of white ripples Slowly spread out, extending to far, far away.

But soon, the people in the cabin felt something unusual.At three o'clock in the afternoon, it was supposed to be the most energetic time for work. For some reason, a sailor sitting on the edge of the cabin door yawned first, and then, as if contagious, many people opened their mouths wide open one after another. I yawned big.

"No, I'm too sleepy." A middle-aged man was exhausted and stood up rubbing his eyes. "I'll go to sleep for a while. If something calls me, I'll be on duty at night."

After the middle-aged man left, many sailors got up one after another and went back to their lounges to recuperate. The entire cabin was soon half empty.The rest of the sailors who were assigned to be on duty at this time could not leave. They could only yawn and look enviously at the backs of their colleagues going away, and asked them to remember to rest and change shifts with me, but they said As they spoke, their voices fell silent, and when they looked back, they were all asleep.

Ning Xiao sat by the window seat, reached out and rubbed his temples, but still couldn't control the invasion of sleepiness.

Something is wrong, everything is wrong today.Ning Xiao frowned and took a big gulp of ice water. The cold liquid entered his body through the esophagus. The short-term stimulation still couldn't wake him up.

This kind of sleepiness seems to emanate from the bones. Even a person like Ning Xiao who has been trained under countless extreme conditions can't resist the sleepiness, and still falls asleep after repeated struggles...

On the blue sea, a large ship from Nansha was slowly sailing towards the mainland port. No one knew that all the people on the ship had fallen into a deep sleep.

On the vast land beyond the ocean, drowsiness seems to spread far away, so in more and more places, you can see people who suddenly close their eyes in the middle of speaking, and walk straight through the red light because they did not step on the brakes. Cars crossing intersections, birds falling from the sky into the jungle soil, and red warning lights that never go out because they were not dealt with in time.

At 2019:4 on April 4, 19, China time, human beings all over the world fell into a deep sleep.

During the period when everyone's eyes were closed, the world has undergone earth-shaking changes.

……

Huo Yizhou was awakened by thirst, he opened his eyes, habitually looked out of the window, and found that the sky outside the window had darkened at some point.He lowered his head, grabbed the phone next to his pillow and turned on the screen, only to see that the time had jumped to 4 o'clock in the morning of April 5th.

Huo Yizhou was taken aback. As a self-disciplined star who never slept for more than 8 hours, his first reaction was that there was something wrong with his phone.However, soon, the headache caused by the long sleep forced him to face the fact that he had indeed slept for 14 hours. He resisted the pressure of his swollen head, put on his coat and climbed out of bed, picked up the cup and walked to the water dispenser , Get yourself a full glass of cold water.

The cold pure water poured into his throat more or less stimulated Huo Yizhou to wake up a bit. While drinking the water, he habitually glanced at the other three people's bunks.The sky had already turned pale at this time, and the curtains in the dormitory were only half drawn, but the street lamps that used to cost nothing in the past were abnormally turned off today, which caused Huo Yizhou's vision of the upper bunk to be somewhat blurred.

But this didn't prevent Huo Yizhou from discovering that besides himself, there was no one on the other three beds.

Huo Yizhou stroked the rim of the cup with his index finger, and walked back holding the empty cup instead of studying the matter carefully.

Dimly, he felt his feet tripped by something, looked down and looked up, and found that it was the pants of the roommate who slept on the opposite bed. "I forgot to fold my pants before going to bed..." He muttered and complained, then leaned over to help his roommate pick up the pants and hang them back on the back of the armchair.

While standing up, Huo Yizhou suddenly remembered the fact that there was no one in his roommate's bed.He turned on the flashlight lighting mode of his mobile phone, and scanned the roommate's desk, and saw other clothes piled up on it, just like before falling asleep every night.

What's the situation when all the clothes are off, but the person is not on the bed?Huo Yizhou felt strange, so he took photos of the desks and beds of the other two roommates, and found that the desks and beds of the other two roommates were clean enough, as if they had never been back.

What's going on, did the other two team up to go out to spend the night and haven't come back yet?What about the other person's clothes?Could it be that he changed into his pajamas and went out to study again?One question after another lingered in Huo Yizhou's mind, causing him a headache.

It made Huo Yizhou realize something was wrong again when the light of the flashlight fell on his own bed.He found a square object the size of a fingernail beside his pillow. When he got closer, he saw that it was a small dice.

Huo Yizhou stretched out his hand to pick up the dice, and moved it closer to his eyes to examine it carefully.The six sides of the white dice are engraved with six numbers, from 1 to 6, of which 1 and 4 are painted in red, and the rest of the numbers are all black - no difference from the dice you see every day.Holding the dice and squinting his eyes, he recalled yesterday's situation, but he didn't remember that he brought back any dice-shaped objects yesterday.

The phone suddenly made two "Didi" beeps. Huo Yizhou lowered his head to unlock it, and found that the phone was suddenly forced into the download interface of a certain app, and the progress bar had reached 99%. Following his gaze, the 99% progress suddenly jumped Turned to 100%, the phone screen went dark, and then brightened again soon.

As the screen came back on, Huo Yizhou saw that an app had been forcibly opened on his phone. The interface of the APP is very clean, with a few lines of small white font written on the black background, without many fancy embedded advertisements.

Huo Yizhou tried to long press the HOME button to exit the APP, but a small warning box popped up on the main interface to remind him: Dear, I suggest you read the guide first before returning~

...Where did the Taobao customer service programmer come from?Huo Yizhou was a little speechless, touched "OK" with his thumb, and honestly browsed the content of the so-called guide on the screen.

"Survivor's Survival Guide..." After reading the first line, the corner of Huo Yizhou's mouth twitched, and he felt a gust of Zhong Er blowing towards his face.But the app obviously didn't want to make it easy for him, and the phone kept vibrating to signal him to read the next content carefully.

"First, each player initially has 1 dice; second, the number of dice will be cleared at 18:0 every day, players with 100 dice and cities with a total of less than [-] dice will be cleared; third, do not Mess with Ning Xiao, don't mess with Ning Xiao, don't mess with Ning Xiao." When he read the last item, Huo Yizhou's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't believe that the name that had been hidden in his heart for nearly three years would be named like this. The form suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.

So, is it a prank by someone who knows himself very well?Huo Yizhou looked at the dice in the palm of his left hand, and then at the three lines of text on the phone screen, feeling that things were becoming more and more complicated.

Press the HOME button again to return to the main interface. This time the warning box did not pop up, but Huo Yizhou found that the mobile phone signal displayed in the upper left corner disappeared. He tried to walk around the room, but the signal still had no intention of returning.

Compared with the sudden addition of an app on the phone, the disappearance of the signal made Huo Yizhou feel a little more troublesome.He tried to turn off the phone, but found that the phone was always on the standby interface. It didn't mean to go black, but the warning box popped up again to cause trouble.

Warning box: Kiss, here is to remind you, the phone will not be turned off in the future~

The warning box is still playing nonsense: the game has already started, and there is no need for you to contact others~ What is sad, here is a suggestion for you to swear a few dirty words to vent~

Huo Yizhou pinched his Jingming acupoint, his temper was so gentle that he also had the urge to smash his phone.

The time prompt directly above has reached 05:30, and the bathroom should have been called.Huo Yizhou walked to the door of the bathroom, and pressed the switch of the headlight in the bathroom, but the bathroom was not as bright as expected, and it was still pitch black.

Suddenly there was a strange APP on the phone, but there was no signal, and the dormitory was completely cut off... All kinds of abnormalities came together, and Huo Yizhou finally realized that something might really go wrong in this world.
