Chapter 276 Concealment
"That's right." Song Chao's face didn't look very good either.
"Does it have anything to do with the Snow Beast King releasing his skills?"
Song Chao nodded: "Just when the skill hit the barrier, my spiritual power was cleared, it seems that Luo Pan consumed his spiritual power to resist the skill.
In order to maintain the barrier, I can only absorb spirit stones.
But I used up a lot of my spirit stones in the last world, and I have less than 10 left."
Xiao Jin lowered his eyes and calculated.
If the obstacle of the Snow Beast King is removed, the compass barrier will consume 50 spiritual power points per hour, which is equivalent to one spiritual stone.
Then the spirit stones in Song Chao's hands could barely last until eight o'clock in the evening.
But there are still 15 hours until tomorrow noon when players leave the game world.
He had more than thirty spirit stones in his hand, which seemed to be enough, but this was on the assumption that the Snow Beast King did nothing.
Whether it was Xiao Jin or Song Chao, they would not believe that the other party would be so honest.
Xiao Jin took out 10 spirit stones and handed them to Song Chao.
"Use it first, and we'll talk if there's a problem."
Song Chao sighed: "This is the only way!"
Five hours later, it was three in the afternoon.
The Snow Beast King launched an attack again. This time, Song Chao consumed three spirit stones before the barrier was stabilized.
Although the interval was long, the Snow Beast King's attack was getting stronger.
Moreover, every time the snow beasts hit the barrier during this period, Song Chao's spiritual power would be depleted.
From this perspective, Xiao Jin's concerns might actually come true.
As if she had noticed the heavy atmosphere between the two, Gao Ya asked the reason. It turned out that it was the 'energy' that she was worried about that had gone wrong, so she hurriedly asked if there was any solution.
As for the matters concerning psychics, Xiao Jin and the others didn't care whether to hide them or not.
Besides, it was Gao Ya who asked the questions, so Song Chao told her about the psychics and naturally talked about psychic props.
After hearing this, Gao Ya's face showed shock for a moment, but then she calmed down.
Not for any reason, because she firmly believed that she would definitely step into this field.
"So, 'energy' is spiritual power, but you are worried that the spiritual power is not enough?" Gao Ya took a deep breath.
"I've never seen this thing, but maybe other players have it. Why not ask?"
Xiao Jin didn't refuse, she just didn't think it was a good idea!
Not long after, Gao Ya came back with a frown on her face, and she shook her head at the two of them.
Song Chao was not surprised at all, and the expression on his face barely changed. It was obvious that he had the same idea as Xiao Jin and did not believe that Gao Ya would come back with the spirit stone.
Spirit stones were rare to begin with, and even the big guys wanted them, so even if other players had them, after Gao Ya asked them, most of them would not hand them over.
The Song Dynasty was not angry either, this is just the bad nature of human beings!
However, Gao Ya understood what was going on shortly after she came back, and immediately felt a little regretful.
"I was too direct just now. I should have thought more about it. Now I'm giving others room to refuse."
Xiao Jin walked over slowly: "It's okay, even if we have enough spirit stones, the game may not really give us this opportunity."
Song Chao also said to Gao Ya: "Xiao Jin is right. Being able to stay in the barrier until the end of the game is the best outcome, but according to the nature of the system, it will never let us take advantage of this loophole."
But no matter what, Gao Ya was still quite excited.
She should have known this long ago. Given the selfish nature of the players, they would definitely not hand over the spirit stones.
But this time it was different, the beneficiaries of the barrier were obviously everyone. If they took out the spirit stones, they would be safer, but someone had the problem again.
"Forget it, I don't care. The barrier can be broken whenever the time comes. I advise you two not to take it too seriously and keep some spirit stones in your hands." Gao Ya simply gave up.
After she finished speaking, she simply sat back. During the conversation, anyone who came to inquire about the spirit stone was scolded away by her!
You are shameless. You don't want to give anything but you still ask questions. If you dare to come over here again, I'll chop you into pieces!
Gao Ya's sudden change of expression really shocked many people.
The players who didn't know what was going on were getting nervous, fearing that something unexpected would happen. Those who had something to hide didn't dare to ask any more questions, because Gao Ya was a person who kept her word.
The third attack did not occur until 11 o'clock in the middle of the night, as the players waited in fear.
Needless to say, it's hard for players not to panic when they see the huge black energy ball that covers the sky.
"Oh my god, it's so big, can the props of the Song Dynasty block it?"
"You tell me, should we run? If we stay here, even if we stop them this time, what about next time?"
"But it's too cold outside, there's nowhere to go, and if we go out we'll be surrounded by snow beasts."
"You forgot that there are quite a few rooms in the prison building. If there is a charcoal basin, it may not last until tomorrow noon."
When these words were spoken, many people were moved.
Some people even looked directly at the charcoal basins around them.
The charcoal basin can only be obtained from a level 5 snow beast, but among so many players, there are only a dozen or so who are capable of killing a level 5 snow beast alone.
These people must have charcoal braziers in their hands, but there are more than a hundred players, and there won’t be enough to share no matter how many we kill!
Looks like we have no choice but to rob!
The smell of gunpowder gradually spread, and with the arrival of the Snow Beast King's shock wave beam, the tense atmosphere gradually reached its peak.
"Humph!"
"Oh!"
Gao Ya snorted coldly, and the Red Moon Blade suddenly came out of its sheath and stabbed heavily into the ground. The knife was as smooth as tofu, which made many players feel depressed and they lowered their heads to hide their emotions.
"You're not even dead yet and you're already thinking about running away. What a bunch of wimps. I'm warning you, you'd better not have any bad thoughts, otherwise..." Gao Ya glared at everyone.
The players who were met by her gaze retreated one after another, but as soon as they turned around, they were met with Xiao Jin's cold eyes, and instantly felt as if they had fallen into a cold pond.
Xiao Jin glanced at a few dishonest players, especially the ones who just spoke. She was not like Gao Ya, who only knew how to make threats in a bland way.
The palm flipped, and the broken shadow flashed a flash of lightning in the air, then pierced heavily into a person's shoulder, nailing him directly to the wall.
"Ahhhh!!!"
The man didn't have time to react at all. The electric arc continued to spread into his body along the blood hole, and he couldn't help but scream.
Xiao Jin opened his lips slightly, his eyes seemed to penetrate him: "Where are your companions?"
The attacked player originally wanted to question, even if she was Xiao Jin, she couldn't kill people casually.
Unexpectedly, before he could ask the question, his whole body trembled after hearing the question, and he held back the words he was about to say.
The player lowered his head, his eyes full of fear: Damn, how did she know?
