Survival in the apocalypse: I exploited a bug in an infinite dungeon.

[Cloud Dream]: I thought that after surviving the plane crash, life on the deserted island would be much more comfortable, but in the end, wow, the island almost disappeared.

[Stars Fell into Dreams]: Hahaha, what incredible luck! I didn't know what prop to buy, so I just blindly bought a parachute, hahaha.

[Dog Game Dog Game]: Damn, I almost died on the first landing, but thankfully the plane made a successful emergency landing, and a group of people huddled together for warmth on the island.

[放鹤归西]: You guys are just keeping each other warm, we're in a battle royale. Holy crap, those NPCs all went crazy in the end, thinking they couldn't escape, and started fighting like mad. I was so scared that I just hid on my own, and almost got sprayed to death by that fountain in the end.

[Flying Kiss Demon King]: Hehehe, I finally experienced what it feels like to be carried! As expected of a top player on the leaderboard, he conjured a helicopter right at the start and landed me safely. So awesome!

[Wild Handsome Guy]: The beginning was actually okay, but I think the most explosive part was later on. The island was gone, and the pieces of debris were covered with lions and tigers. I was stuck on a piece of wood and drifted at sea for three days, and my body was swollen.

[Encounter with Seagulls]: Who would have thought this game would include a romantic element, a whale fall? Although I almost died, I was still deeply moved.

[Interpreting Indifference]: Upstairs, what are you moved to tears about? Romantic? It's deathly romance! The shark swarms that followed were terrifying.

[Tianya Zhizi Xin]: What whale fall? What are you talking about?

[Infinite Survival Kill Me]: Exactly, are we playing the same game? How come there's a whale fall?

[Dust]: Link - Detailed Explanation of the Island Survival Dungeon. See for yourselves.

Upon seeing this, Shi Jinwei also jumped to the forum via the link and found that someone had indeed analyzed the isolated island instance very clearly.

Besides the whale fall, there were many other details that Shi Jinwei hadn't noticed, making her sigh that there are indeed many experts among ordinary people.

Just as I was about to leave the forum, I saw that the game had issued another new announcement:

[Announcement: Game update successful. Update details are as follows:]

1. The points leaderboard has been updated from [Leaderboard] to [Total Points Leaderboard].

2. A new [Special Items] section has been added to the Item Shop, which players can purchase as needed.

3. Game content and tasks will change randomly. Please read the game instructions carefully each time.

4. The game will be updated or upgraded from time to time, and the game reserves the right of final interpretation.

She was taken aback and immediately opened the points leaderboard.

She had only seen this once and thought that the rankings were still low, so even if something happened, it would only happen to the top few. Therefore, she didn't pay much attention to it after that.

Upon reopening, I discovered that quite a few of the names had indeed changed.

For example, the previous number one "Sibo" has changed, and the names following it have also undergone a major reshuffle.

Feng Xiaoyu, whom we faced in the last round, has also dropped out of the top three and is now ranked 17th.

Shi Jinwei wasn't interested in her, her two teammates, or Ji Chen. She only paid attention to herself and found that she had actually risen by more than 4000 places, now ranking 25178 with a total score of 930.

I looked online and found that the people ranked above her were all about one point apart from her, which shows that the competition for this ranking is quite fierce.

As for the purpose of the points leaderboard, opinions vary widely on the forum.

Some speculate that it's similar to real-world games, designed to make big shots famous and for underlings to admire them. Others believe it has other uses, such as providing extra rewards.

But after four rounds of the game, nothing was clear, and people gradually lost interest.

After looking at the leaderboard, Shi Jinwei went to the item shop to see what special items were available.

Sure enough, four new items have been added:

Team Item: One-time use item. Each player can only use it once per game. It allows you to bind a teammate before the game starts, and you will be teleported together after entering the game. 100 points/item.

Tracking Item: A one-time use item. Each player can only use it once per game. It can be used in-game to track the specific location of a designated player. (Note: Because player instances are randomly assigned each round, there is no guarantee that you and that player will be assigned to the same instance. If the use fails, the item will also become invalid and cannot be used again.) 100 points/item.

Bounty Item: Players can use this item to post bounty missions. The mission details, number of participants, and rewards can all be customized. The item expires once all mission details are completed. 200 points/item.

Broadcast Item: Using this item will make your message appear as a [System Announcement], ensuring all players see it immediately. 10 points/item.

Shi Jinwei felt that, apart from the last one, the rest were all too expensive for her to afford.

Since she didn't need it for the time being, she stopped paying attention to it and started upgrading her own skills.

I spent 200 points and upgraded directly to level 5:

Skill: Space (Uniqueness).

Skill rarity: S-rank.

Skill Description: Active skill (upgradeable).

Having this skill will give you a portable storage space, an essential item in survival games.

Additional Skill I: Safe House – A 6*6*6M independent space, isolated from everything outside, ensuring the player's safety.

Players can hide in the safe house for 30 minutes at a time (the safe house location will not move, and only the space owner can enter). Cooldown: 10 days.

After the instance ends, the resources in the current instance will be automatically recycled.

Skill level: 5.

Upgrade points: 300.

Space size: 27 cubic meters.

The space has expanded again, and the safe house has also grown, but the hiding time remains unchanged.

The next upgrade requires 300 points, and she currently has 211 points left. She can only wait until next time, so she directly opened the trading center.

Things are already being sold in the trading center.

After several rounds of gameplay, players have accumulated some points. While survival gear can be acquired in the game, weapons are harder to obtain. Therefore, weapons in the item shop are the most popular items.

Nowadays, many players can afford to save up for a firearm, so the trading center is now mostly filled with melee weapons.

She browsed around and found that someone had listed the Tang sword she had previously liked for 1 point, so she clicked to buy it without hesitation.

Nothing else is particularly special; Shi Jinwei has switched to the item shop.

After returning to the game space, I managed to steal a few items from the fake "Ji Chen". Only the "crossbow" and "drone" remained, indicating that the other items were from the current game.

Shi Jinwei wasn't curious about who the person was, nor did she care about his skills. She just hoped that she would encounter fewer dangerous characters in future games.

The first thing to buy is a parachute (3 points).

Then I bought more:

Multivitamin 120 tablets/bottle (1 point), multi-magnification night vision binoculars (2 points), multi-functional generator (3 points).

Finally, she discovered that the game store even sold bank cards. On a whim, she spent 1 point to buy one, planning to try it out in the game this time.

The next upgrade will require 300 points, and Shi Jinwei doesn't plan to buy any more with the remaining 200 points; she'll save them for future upgrades.

After finishing, she immediately collapsed onto the bed to catch up on sleep.
