There is One New Rule Every Month Globally

Chapter 36 "Has the outside world changed so much just overnight?

The night passed slowly.

Chen Yi picked up the remote and turned up the temperature of the air conditioner in the room slightly.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, wrapped in a robe, facing the window, he poured a little hot water from the thermos cup and sipped it lightly.

It was already dawn.

This night, many people probably had trouble sleeping.

Fortunately, so far electricity and drinking water are still functioning normally, but many factories have been shut down for a long time, and if this issue isn't resolved soon, humanity will have to slowly revert to an era where each household has to cultivate their own food.

"Yi."

The Tuberculosis Rabbit, lying on another bed, rubbed his eyes and said in a drowsy voice, "You're awake? I didn't disturb you last night, did I?"

"No."

Chen Yi's face remained calm as he set the thermos cup aside, lit a cigarette, took it to his mouth, and with a faint dark circle under his eyes, he remained silent without speaking.

Then he shook his head and got up to walk to the bathroom.

"I'm going to take a shower first."

"After I'm done, you brush your teeth, and then we'll prepare to go out today."

"Oh."

The Tuberculosis Rabbit, still looking a bit reluctant, wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, then took the Claw Knife from under his pillow and looked at its charge progress, grinning satisfactorily.

"The charge progress is already at 762."

"Tomorrow it should be able to break a thousand."

He had intended to use it in this swarm of creatures, but in the end, he didn't get a chance to act, so the charge progress just kept accumulating.

The next time he gets a chance to take action, he would try to see what kind of power the Claw Knife would have after being charged for so long.

...

Standing under the spray, stark naked, Chen Yi looked at the "Global Vehicle Leaderboard" in the steamy bathroom.

Only the top 100 could make it onto the leaderboard.

At the moment, the 100th position was filled with players, but most of them were E-level vehicles, with only seven or eight D-level vehicles; his C-level vehicle was still in first place.

However, how long it could retain that position was unclear, given that there were so many people worldwide, and there was no telling when some lucky player might suddenly appear.

Most E-level vehicles were uniformly the Bright Brand Pedal Bicycle.

'Vehicle Name': Bright Brand Pedal Bicycle!

'Vehicle Level': E-level vehicle.

'Vehicle Effect': Can seat two people at the same time, with no upper limit to maximum speed. Unlike typical bicycles, this bicycle theoretically can reach subluminal speeds if you pedal fast enough.

'Vehicle Introduction': "Remember to have a fat person sit in the backseat so that your chances of survival greatly increase when being chased."

'Basic Score': 10 points.

'Vehicle Price': 100 Points.

This prop was explicitly priced in the Points Store during the global event "Extraterrestrial Invader."

This prop didn't exist before, but after he obtained the C-level vehicle yesterday, it triggered a vehicle patch update, and then this vehicle appeared in the Points Store.

100 Points.

Not too expensive, but not cheap either.

Just kill 100 of the Insect Race monsters, and you can earn 100 Points.

The majority of players on the current vehicle leaderboard who made it onto the list own this vehicle, but their scores are not the basic 10 points; some have even reached a score of 80, which probably means the vehicles were modified to increase their scores.

So far, the Points Store only has this one vehicle.

As for the remaining seven D-level vehicles on the leaderboard, they are completely different vehicles, likely obtained by killing Insect Race monsters or opening gift packages.

Last night.

There must have been many players killing Insect Race monsters and purchasing limited-time 520 event gift packages, but in the end, only seven managed to get a vehicle.

This demonstrates just how low the drop rate for vehicles is.

With this in mind, perhaps in the future, most players will only have their own two feet as their mode of transportation.

"However..."

Chen Yi, expressionless, fell silent as he stared at the details of the vehicle ranked sixth on the vehicle leaderboard, at a loss for words for a moment.

Can this thing really be called a vehicle?

"Vehicle Name": Orange-flavored Exploding Beads

"Vehicle Level": D-level Vehicle.

"Vehicle Effect": Embed it at the back, and it will absorb all your emissions, storing them for later use. You can activate the Exploding Beads at any time to enable low-altitude straight-line flight.

"Vehicle Introduction": "It can fly close to the ground or take off from a standstill, but keep in mind that it can only fly in a straight line. You cannot control it to turn."

"Basic Score": 100 points.

"Current Score": 189 points.

"Owner": Li Yide.

"..."

After a long while, Chen Yi let out a sigh, slowly closed his eyes, and enjoyed the comfort of the hot water showering down on his head.

Early in the morning, he really didn't feel like seeing these eyesores.

A basic score of 100 points and a current score of 189 implied that the player had made some modifications to the vehicle. What kind of person would make modifications to such a vehicle?

Despite being somewhat of an eyesore, it would indeed be a precious commodity if it could save your life at a critical moment.

But this modification function—

He curiously glanced at the modification panel to see what kind of alterations he could make to his own vehicle.

Suddenly!

A long panel appeared before his eyes.

"Self-Controlled Double-Barreled Rifle": 500 Points.

"Nitrogen Injector": 1000 Points.

"Jump Ejector": 800 Points.

"..."

"Falling Star Spear": Unknown.

Simple and clear.

Apparently, as long as you have enough Points, you can purchase these items and install them on your own vehicle. He even saw an option for a nuclear missile silo.

In other words.

Theoretically, he could even mount a nuclear missile silo onto a bicycle.

If he so desired.

Quite absurd.

Chen Yi didn't look any further, but instead quickly wiped down his body and shaved off the stubble that had grown over the past few days before exiting the bathroom.

Today was May 21st.

It was the last day of the "520 Limited-Time Event".

After today, the title "Lucky Child of the God of Love" would become a permanent limited edition, and the "520 Limited-Time 88 Points Gift Pack" would no longer be available for purchase.

He wasn't particularly interested in the gift pack.

But he was somewhat interested in the title. After all, it was a permanent limited edition title, and today was the last day to get it. Once today passed, he would never be able to get that title again.

Although it wasn't very useful, but… he kind of wanted to collect it.

Only now he couldn't find someone he genuinely liked to confess to.

For him, that was still a difficult task.

Soon.

The two of them brushed their teeth and washed up, then walked out of the residential complex onto the street.

However...

Just as Tuberculosis Rabbit stepped out of the complex, his mouth slowly gaped open in shock, muttering to himself.

"Did I sleep for seven or eight days in one go?"

"Has the outside world really changed this much overnight?"

Last night.

They triggered a patch update which caused all vehicles to disappear.
