Game invasion, starting with being bound to Liu Tianxian

There are two yachts.

Logically speaking, anyone who wants to leave can simply take a yacht and go.

But nobody mentioned it.

Everyone has their own agenda and can see the situation clearly.

In particular, Li Shu also promised to help them find their relatives.

The treasure chest has now been opened.

With Li Shu's strength, he is capable of soloing the goblins.

A single goblin grants 2500 experience points, making leveling up quick.

Since he had already made a plan, Li Shu decided not to make any further adjustments and returned directly to the mainland.

Inside the cockpit, the seven men huddled together, watching Li Shu analyze the map.

"Look at you."

Li Shu marked the cities where everyone's parents lived on the map.

Yang Mi and Gao Yuanyuan both live in Beijing, the capital of China, in the north.

As for Liu Yifei, she owns properties all over the world, living both abroad and in China.

Her parents were born in Xiacheng, a city in central China, and now live there.

The farthest place is Reyiba, located in Urumqi, a city deep in the northwest of China, several thousand kilometers away from here.

Both Guan Meilin's Xiangjiang and Wang Xinling's Peng'an are located in southern China.

In other words, everyone is going in completely opposite directions. So the question is, whose parents should we look for first?

"I'm actually fine, I can prioritize you guys." Guan Meilin was open-minded and had once thought about spending her life on the island, so she took the initiative to back down.

The key point is that her words gave Wang Xinling a headache.

Originally, the two were in the same direction and could have acted together. Now that Guan Meilin has backed down, he is left alone, which reduces his importance.

Li Shu crossed his arms and silently observed the changes in the expressions of the six people.

Logically speaking, both sides are equally important, and there should be no favoritism.

The problem is that there's also the issue of goodwill involved, which Li Shu is worried about, for example, by helping Liu Yifei find her relatives first.

She was moved to tears, but what would others think?

What if arriving too late leads to the death of a loved one? Wouldn't one then harbor resentment?

Now that they're bound together, they can't be unbound. What if someone's favorability drops to zero? What can Li Shu do then? Does he have to resort to ruthless killing?

"How about we draw lots?"

Liu Yifei hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "Let's draw lots, that's the fairest way."

She naturally wanted to go to Xiacheng to find her parents first, and in her opinion, she had an advantage because Li Shu's hometown was also in the central region.

But she felt embarrassed to be so selfish, so she suggested drawing lots instead.

It depends on luck. If you don't get it, don't blame others.

The group looked at each other, remaining silent.

Li Shu shook his head and said, "Don't draw lots, it'll hurt our feelings."

Even if it's said to be fair, those who should hold a grudge will still hold one.

True fairness is when everyone feels that their actions are in their own best interest.

Liu Yifei countered, "Then tell me how to do it without hurting feelings."

After saying that, he muttered under his breath, "Who has feelings for you?"

Li Shu lay on the map, beckoned to the crowd to come closer, and then said, "This is what I'm thinking. I won't say where to go first, because you see, from Ningzhou, it's over a thousand kilometers to any place."

"If you can find level 10 monsters on this tiny island, what level monsters would you have to fight over a distance of thousands of kilometers?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Yang Mi stared intently at Li Shu and asked, "So?"

Li Shu continued, "I think we should analyze the problem from the perspective of a game. Normally, a game has a large map, monsters, and naturally, cities."

"The guy surnamed Wei said that monsters will spawn in cities, which means that the game has separate cities, and monsters will spawn around the cities, gradually increasing in level. Some of you have played the game, so you should understand what I mean."

People like Liu Yifei, who have played games, will naturally understand.

Reyiba asked, "Li Shu, are you saying that no matter where we go, we'll have to traverse high-level monster zones?"

Then I'm doomed. My hometown is the farthest away, about 4,000 kilometers away.

Li Shudao said, "That's the idea, but I also have another idea: I believe that each game city is essentially an independent region."

"The core is the city, surrounded by towns and starting villages, and you level up step by step to the main city. Finally, will there be connections between the main cities?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei immediately understood and blurted out, "A teleportation array?"

Li Shu nodded quickly.

In my understanding, the moment the game was launched, it was as if a game map was forcibly placed over the entire world.

It all depends on luck.

If you're lucky, you'll be born near a relatively safe main city.

Those who happen to be in a high-level monster zone can only hope for the best.

If that's the case, then initially you can only level up in the starting area. Only after reaching a certain level can you use the teleportation array between the main cities to go to other areas.

This is the safest way to travel.

Since airplanes are unusable now, driving a car through high-level monster zones would likely result in a terrible death.

People like Guan Meilin and Gao Yuanyuan, who didn't understand the game, quickly pulled Liu Yifei and the others aside to ask what it meant.

Liu Yifei frowned slightly and asked, "Li Shu, so you mean we should upgrade first?"

If that's the case, then it's better to stay on the island and not go to the mainland.

Li Shu shook his head: "No, what I mean is, before deciding how to proceed, we should first figure out the situation on land. We need intelligence."

"The guy surnamed Wei didn't say anything, did he? Cell phone communication is down, but wired communication is still working. And walkie-talkies are still working, which means shortwave radios should also be working."

That's quite strange.

Mobile phone communication does not rely on satellites, and the base stations are connected by wires. It is inexplicably unusable, and I don't know why.

"I mean, just radio, or even television."

Digital television is now available, but terrestrial television signals still exist.

Even with a fishbone antenna, you can still receive signals.

"That means there are still channels for transmitting information over land. So we should figure out the situation in different places before deciding how to act."

The crowd fell silent, pondering Li Shu's words.

Guan Meilin spoke up at the opportune moment: "Li Shu, don't say so much. We'll listen to you. Whatever you say, we'll do."

The others exchanged glances.

Reyiba nodded hastily; she was indecisive and dreaded making decisions.

Yang Mi and Gao Yuanyuan might have more ideas, but given the current situation, they were completely clueless and could only choose to trust Li Shu.

As for Liu Yifei, she must have figured it out by now. She pushed the map aside, stood up, and said, "I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll go set sail."

Li Shu nodded.

That's more like it. We should take it one step at a time. It's a waste of time to analyze things without knowing what's going on.

At that moment, everyone set off on the yacht.

There are nautical charts, but GPS positioning is useless.

It's okay, as long as you know the direction, just head west and you won't go wrong.

The yacht cut through the waves at a decent speed.

It was another sunny day, with gentle ripples on the sea and seagulls flying overhead, a truly delightful scene.

However, everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts and didn't bother with small talk, remaining silent one by one.

After driving for about half an hour, we could already see the outline of the island ahead.

Just then, Liu Yifei, who was steering the boat, suddenly patted Li Shu on the shoulder and pointed ahead, saying, "Li Shu, look! What are they doing?"

Li Shu looked over hurriedly, then froze.

"This...this is a naval battle?"

Then, on the sea ahead, there was a... patrol boat?

It should be because Li Shu saw the national flag and the large characters for Ningshan.

The patrol boat is now out of service, with black smoke billowing from its stern.

Then, a dozen or so speedboats, like sharks, circled the patrol boat at high speed.

They would occasionally approach and pass by the patrol boat.

At this point, they will slow down, and then a fireball will fly up from the speedboat and shoot towards the patrol boat.

Li Shu was shocked.

The server has only been open for a few days, and naval battles are already underway?
