Rapid March! Heaven and Hell!
After Su Mo announced his decision to disembark and head to his territory.
Instead of cheering, the villagers on deck began the final round of equipment checks in a very orderly manner.
This is a direct result of the seven-day training.
After the wartime regulations were activated, no one was an independent individual anymore.
As the constructor within the collective, the only task is:
Obey orders!
At 11:55, the passageway door on the second deck slowly opened.
The narrow passage that could only accommodate one person at a time has now been expanded to accommodate three or four people.
In less than three minutes, when the last person entered the passage, Su Mo, who had been standing behind watching, also followed him inside.
Boom! With a sudden pull, the closed door between the second floor and the passageway was officially shut in an instant.
Upon hearing the sound, everyone stopped and climbed the escalator in an orderly fashion, quickly making their way to the surface of the sea.
As the last person, Su Mo stepped out of the passage.
On the distant New Continent beach, most of the villagers had already lined up and were standing in neat rows, seemingly lost in thought.
Clearly, the reward for conquering the New Continent has been sent.
With a calm smile, he closed the passageway door and, with Su Mo nimble leap, stepped onto the prepared lifeboat.
As he rowed along, he eventually arrived at the beach of the New Continent.
The next second.
The game's notification sound suddenly rang out.

Ten records.
The sounds rang out one after the other.
Contrary to expectations, among all the records, Su Mo first noticed the invincibility buff provided by the game, and then paid attention to his own ranking.
130 million.
"I never imagined there were so many gamblers among humans."
"But that makes sense. We've already come to the apocalypse. How can we know our limits if we don't take a chance?"
Clear the previous records one by one, and then check the privileges in the opened Game Panel.
Su Mo's eyes were deep and mysterious, as if he could see through space and see the myriad beings inside the New Continent.
In terms of time, this is only the beginning of humanity's arrival on the New Continent.
Before setting foot on land, the group had speculated about this number while eating.
Some people guessed three million.
Some people guessed five million.
Even Chen Kai, who was the most daring, only guessed ten million.
At the time, Su Mo did not give his guess, but in his heart, he silently guessed it was thirty million.
But now, even 30 million is just a drop in the ocean compared to this number!
According to data models, the number of humans arriving in the New Continent may exceed 300 million!
Even five hundred million!
A quarter of humanity will not stay in the deep sea to eke out a living; they still have ambitions and want to turn the tide.
A flash of blue light.
The Game Panel automatically redirected to the privileges panel, revealing all of the Trail Blazer's attributes.
[Privilege]: Trail Blazers
[Description]: This privilege belongs only to the brave. Any human who sets foot on the New Continent will enjoy the bonus for 210 days, but the privilege will disappear 24 hours after leaving the New Continent.
[Special Ability]: Phase 1 (1-3 days): Rapid March
All humans who arrive on the New Continent will gain the ability to move rapidly for 1-3 days, with movement speed increased by 500% and stamina recovery speed increased by 200%. However, this privilege will be temporarily disabled when attacked by creatures, until the effect ends.
Phase Two (4-30 days): Lockdown
Phase Three (30-180 days): Lock-in
Phase Four (180-210 days): Locking in
When Su Mo initially agreed on the rewards with the game, he only requested the privilege of Reproduce and Thrive.
He was completely clueless about the Trail Blazers.
At this moment, after reading the description of the Rapid March, Su Mo's eyes revealed a hint of understanding.
When you first enter the territory, following the route planned by the game, you will have a 500% movement speed bonus.
Adding Rapid March will grant you ten times the movement speed.
Based on a person's daily walking speed of 150 kilometers, these ten times the amount, even with half a day of rest, would be enough to cover thousands of kilometers.
In this way, the goal of the game becomes clear: he wants everyone to get into the territory as soon as possible.
"The so-called route is probably well-planned in advance, avoiding all living things and resources."
"This game was indeed well-prepared, and they had a firm grasp on everyone's thoughts."
On the way forward.
Su Mo had previously considered taking advantage of the situation.
But now, considering the 1600 kilometers between it and the territory.
That option is no longer a concern! "Chief, everyone has assembled. Shall we depart now?"
Fourteen hundred people.
If this were placed in a school, with 50 students per class, that would result in 28 classes.
At this moment, everyone gathered here, and under the bright moonlight and the torchlight, they looked like a dark mass.
"Good!"
Nodding, looking at the hopeful eyes of all the villagers below, Su Mo smiled and turned to walk towards the beach.
The next second, under everyone's gaze.
The Hope, which was already a massive 40-meter-tall ship, began to shrink in an instant.
To everyone's astonishment, in less than 20 seconds, the Hope, which had been standing in the far sea, suddenly transformed into the size of a fishing boat.
Then, guided by a mysterious yellow light...
By the time it flew up from the air and floated all the way to Su Mo's hand, it had already shrunk to the size of a palm!
"Holy crap, isn't this the Ocean God that can change size?"
"Damn, am I blind? When did our Hope become so versatile?!"
"Could this be... a magical artifact crafted by an immortal? Could our director be a cultivator?!"
"What cultivator? Our director must be an immortal descended to earth, this treasure!"
A clamor erupted from the ranks.
Looking at the empty sea, and then at the Hope, which was glowing in Su Mo's hand.
Everyone rubbed their eyes hard, confirming the fact once again.
The Hope has become smaller!
"Chief, is this... is this really our Hope?"
Before returning to the group, Su Mo placed the Hope into the leather bag at the back in front of everyone and nodded slightly.
"Let's go. Although the Hope has many limitations now that it's on the New Continent, it's actually quite useful in certain situations."
Upon hearing the word "restriction," Chen Shen was immediately alarmed.
The clever man did not press the matter further, but immediately turned around and began issuing orders.
Whoosh! As the team flag was raised and commands were issued, the entire team began to advance in an orderly manner.
Without the restriction of supplies, each step allowed everyone to cover tens of meters, their speed was simply frightening.
As a lord.
Although Su Mo did not intend to be treated specially, he still got into the large carriage pulled by the alien race at everyone's request.
"Brother, come in and sleep. We'll call you if we need anything!"
Inside the large vehicle.
Not only was Su Chan there, but Oreo also lazily lying in the corner, leisurely grooming his fur with his tongue.
Seeing Su Mo enter, she wagged her tail and barked softly, indicating that there was no danger on this journey and that she could rest assured.
With multiple layers of protection.
After sitting at the front of the carriage for a while, Su Mo felt relieved, lay down on the soft mattress of the carriage, and fell into a deep sleep.
Having exhausted himself, he slept very soundly.
There was no disturbance, and no burden.
Su Mo slept until nine o'clock in the morning before slowly opening his eyes.
After a nine-hour Rapid March, no one stopped.
With the stamina recovery speed bonus, everyone's stamina is still above 70%.
During the journey, after exchanging Chen Shen.
Su Mo was astonished to find that it seemed the game wanted to quickly send him, this plague god, to its territory.
Along this route, there were no foreign tribes to be seen, and not even steep terrain.
Throughout the entire journey, everyone traversed the vast plains, covering a full 1,000 kilometers in just nine hours! That's an astonishing 110 miles per hour on foot! "Chief, we'll rest for an hour at twelve o'clock."
"We should be able to reach the territory by 4 PM!"
Calculate the distance, and then the return.
Chen Shen and Zhang Long were beaming with joy, showing no sign of fatigue from traveling all night.
But I don't know why.
Sitting in the car, Su Mo suddenly sensed something was wrong.
It went so smoothly!
Even if the game wants to send everyone to their territory quickly.
This route is far too preferential.
Unless "we take a ten-minute break at twelve o'clock, and then we must get to the territory as quickly as possible."
"I have a feeling we're in big trouble!"
At a command.
Seeing Su Mo's serious expression, Chen Shen realized that things were not as simple as everyone imagined.
The two then quickly retreated, delivering the order.
2:48 p. m.
The 1,405 residents of Hope Village successfully crossed 1,600 kilometers in a single day to reach their destination.
But it was precisely at this moment.
Standing on the edge of the territory.
Everyone, including Su Mo, gasped at the same time.
This was different from the lush, vibrant, and paradise-like environment we had seen during our previous Rapid March.
The depression, submerged by seawater for a whole month, was as desolate as hell!
