Online game: Hanging out in the beauty studio

Following the direction pointed by Li Qianfan, I saw that those white light balls were like moths to a flame, disappearing into the shadows of the treetops one after another. As the World Tree absorbed batches of white light balls, its crown became more and more luxuriant. Yes, this World Tree, like a pillar supporting the sky, is still growing. Although the growth rate is very small, it is easy to overlook this detail if you are not careful, but it is enough to arouse Li Qianfan's vigilance. If Li Qianfan is not wrong... The previous earthquake was caused by the sudden growth of the World Tree. Its trunk is still growing, so big that it can no longer fit in the original position, so it can only be forced to spread outward, thus triggering waves of earthquake waves. Loulan City has dried up like this, and the World Tree must not have started to grow inexplicably. In addition, those white light balls are too conspicuous, so Li Qianfan immediately understands what the Storm Temple is going to do at this moment. There is no doubt that the mission of the Storm Temple is to promote the growth of the World Tree, and the key to promoting the growth of the World Tree lies in these white light balls.

"These white light balls look very similar to the "Life Essence", and the "Life Essence" can only be exchanged at the roots of the tree..."

"So, the main task of this stage is to collect?"

"Only after collecting enough "Life Essence" can the World Tree be activated, thus starting the next stage?"

At this moment, Li Qianfan suddenly understood the true role of "Life Essence".

Just as he frowned and pondered the next move of the Storm Temple, Fat Tiger and Ye Ye Shengge also got the key point instantly under his prompting-

"Oh... I understand! This is survival mode! The system will never let us hang around!"

"The abnormal movement of the World Tree actually means that the system is ready to start "shrinking the circle"!"

"The first stage is to get familiar with the environment! The second stage is to collect and develop! The third stage is to run away from poison and ambush people! The fourth stage is to fight with guns!"

"This is the third day, and we have basically not encountered players from other regions..."

"If I were the system, I would definitely find a way to drive everyone to the center of the World Tree at this time..."

"Because only in this way can players fight more easily!"

Perhaps to confirm Ye Ye Shengge's inference, as soon as he finished speaking, the white light balls floating in the air suddenly disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, a gust of wind blew violently in the sky.

This gust of wind was even more fierce than the black storm that blew away everyone the day before, so that after the gust of wind hit, the huge crown of the World Tree was blown rustling, and many leaves fell.

You know...

Those are the leaves of the World Tree.

Under the attention of everyone, the huge fallen leaves as big as banana leaves drew a graceful arc in the air, and then slowly fell to the ground.

Although it is not known whether the leaves of the World Tree are of any use, after seeing this scene, Ye Ye Shengge, who was inspired, immediately pointed at the leaves and shouted-

"Quick! Airdrop! It must be an airdrop! Brother Hu, let's go! Go to the place where the leaves fell! Be sure to grab a piece and see what the effect is!"

After hearing Ye Ye Shengge's shout, the gods who followed closely behind them also came back to their senses, so they quickly sent people to rush to the nearest few fallen leaves.

For players, aren't the fallen leaves in front of them the airdrops in the chicken-eating mode?

"Airdrop?! Haha, it's better to come at the right time than to come early! Let the brothers behind follow closely, let's just push forward together!"

Under the stimulation of the airdrop, the originally tired people suddenly became lively again.

At this time, Li Qianfan looked up at the treetops above.

He had been observing.

The result was just as he expected...

As the leaves fell, the originally vibrant world tree suddenly seemed to have ushered in late autumn, and suddenly covered with a breath called "decline".

Ye Ye Shengge was right.

This is the survival mode. Once the world tree moves abnormally, it means that the system will start to "shrink the circle".

The so-called shrinking circle, that is, the poison circle and other methods shrink the player's activity range. On the one hand, it is to make it easier for players from various regions to meet, thereby causing fierce friction, and on the other hand, it is to force out those old bastards who are mainly "surviving".

Airdrops and shrinking circles are just a means to intensify conflicts. The real purpose is actually to speed up progress.

Therefore, at the moment when the leaves of the World Tree fell, a black storm that could be called a natural disaster gradually formed outside Loulan City.

The black storm came from all directions.The players in Loulan City were constantly pressing towards the city from all directions, but they were unaware of this.

Later, under the leadership of Zhushen Wendao, everyone successfully found the first fallen leaf.

At the same time, because of this fallen leaf, the Jiuzhou Alliance officially ushered in the first tough battle in the God-forsaken Land.

It is not difficult to see from the dress that the opponent should be from the Kushan Empire.

These people looked ferocious, and they surrounded the two teams responsible for picking up the fallen leaves.

They wanted to take the opportunity to wipe out the two teams, but Zhushen Wendao had already learned the magical skill of "bullying the few with the many" from Zhushen Wuwo.

On the surface, he only sent two teams to grab the fallen leaves, but in fact he let the large army follow closely, waiting for the enemy to take the lead and reveal the flaws, and then wipe them out.

Therefore, just when the Kushans were feeling proud, the elite of the alliance led by Zhushen Wendao had already quietly moved behind them and showed them what "counter-encirclement" meant.

With more people against fewer people, and starting with a sneak attack, the specific process of this battle is not worth talking about.

In short, after this not-so-exciting encounter, the Jiuzhou Alliance easily wiped out this powerful team from the Kushan Empire at the cost of only four people.

Similar scenes also occurred in every corner of Loulan City.

The appearance of the fallen leaves was like a spark, completely igniting this gunpowder barrel full of gunpowder.

"That... Fat Tiger, right? Come here and show this leaf to the NPC to see if it can trigger any tasks."

Of course, you can't forget to lick the bag after killing someone.

Just when everyone was busy counting the bodies, Zhushen Wendao suddenly called Fat Tiger not far away, and then pointed to the fallen leaves on the ground that looked like emerald green.

The leaf was about two meters long, and Fat Tiger could lie on it without any problem. However, it was not too heavy, only about ten pounds, so after Fat Tiger received the order from the Gods, he dragged the leaf with one hand and came to Li Qianfan.

"Brother Chen, you are a merchant who travels all over the country, so you must be very knowledgeable, right? So our boss would like to ask you to help identify this leaf and see what tree it fell from..."
