Chapter 60:
July 27th, the festival of the capital base.
In the apocalypse that cannot see the future, it is easy for people to lose the sense of existence and the meaning of life. In order to improve the sense of belonging and life motivation of the people in the base, the base sets the 27th of each month as "Guardian Day" to commemorate the establishment of the base, to commemorate the soldiers who died in order to protect the people, and to commemorate all those who lost their lives in the disaster compatriots.
Although they don't know it, in the game's established history, they will never have that day.
As a member of the base, Qiu Brown and others naturally have to participate in the celebration of the festival. And because of the "hero" status they have, they will get more courtesy and awards on this day.
But at this moment, they did not smile at all.
"Is Aya back?"
Going out with you to find Tang Xiao, you tell me now, you threw a twelve-year-old child in front of the enemy and ran back alone?"
The thin middle-aged man whose name was called blushed and said, "Aya said it was useless for me to stay there, so let me come back first..."
Zheng Wu was the one who tried to sneak up on Tang Xiao with a flying knife before. He originally didn’t care about his ability to be the first in the standings, but after he really got it, he realized what it means to finish abuse.
It self-detonates the moment it hits the enemy, causing huge damage.
Zheng Wu originally thought that his ability was already the best among the players, but when facing Tang Xiao, he joined forces with Aya, and he didn't even force the opponent's ability!
Yes, the opponent suppressed the two of them without the ability to fight back with only physical and melee strength, and even broke Aya's terrifying nails in Catwoman form!
How can a player with such terrifying melee strength be a woman? If she adds supernatural powers, what kind of strength does she have to make?
Is this the first horror existence in the standings?
He even suspected that the information in the previous investigation was inaccurate, and Tang Xiao's ability was probably not to control electricity, but to strengthen the body. But at this moment, in front of Qiu Brown, he didn't dare to put a fart.
But Qiu Brown didn't buy it, instead he was even more angry: "Is this your excuse to abandon your teammates and run away alone?"
Zheng Wu wanted to answer yes, but he dared not.
Nominally, Qiu Brown is the leader of their northern players. In terms of strength, Qiu Brown is recognized as the strongest among all northern players, and there is no one. His strengthening direction is speed and strength, and he can even face giant mutants when he explodes. In several previous crises, Qiu Brown made a temporary breakthrough and saved most of the people.
Because of this, even in the face of the temptation of points and supplies, there is no cannibalism among northern players. Even children like Aya are the key protection targets of the team.
...Although Aya's strength does not require their protection at all, Captain Qiu still insists that she is a weak and helpless little girl who needs protection.
Zheng Wu slandered in his heart, but he was more cautious on the face, "Captain, you know, with Aya's strength, even if you can't beat Tang Xiao, self-protection is not a problem, not to mention she has not I've used the resurrection chance, but I've already been resurrected once..."
The rest he didn't say, but it doesn't need to be said.
Qiu Brown's stubborn and stubborn brain may not understand, but other players will certainly understand him. Even if that Tang Xiao was really ferocious enough to kill Aya, Aya only lost a chance to be resurrected, but not everyone has this chance. For example, a person like Zheng Wu who has used up his only chance, once he dies again, it is a complete and true death.
After all, who wants to die?
Just as the atmosphere was low and deadlocked, the door of the room was pushed open, and a baby-faced youth walked in.
Zheng Wu immediately breathed a sigh of relief and shouted: "Bai Qi!"
The baby-faced young man glanced at him and looked away lightly, "The resurrection point has not changed, Aya is still in the base."
Having a chance to resurrect and not appearing at the resurrection point means that people are not dead, and with their power in the base, it is not difficult to find a little girl. This is undoubtedly a reassurance pill, and everyone is relieved to varying degrees.
Aya is their important combat power, once it is damaged, no one can take responsibility.
Bai Qi glanced around and saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, the faint smile on his face never changed, and finally he looked at Zheng Wu and asked: "The surveillance shows that you and Aya It was eight o'clock yesterday morning when I left, and ten o'clock when I came back. There are 20 hours away from now. During this period, Aya has not returned, but we have not received your report."
Zheng Wu turned pale.
He also wanted to defend: "I thought she would come back..."
But this time, even Qiu Brown, who has always been straight, reacted, "Yesterday, Zuo Yu and I took half of the team and cooperated with the military to clean up the zombies in the wasteland. You deliberately took this opportunity to coax Aya went to challenge Tang Xiao with the idea that even if she was killed, no one would be able to preside over the situation, right?"
He laughed angrily, the scar on his face shaking slightly with his muscles: "This time the military temporarily changed the plan, if we really leave for a week, are you going to keep it secret? Until Aya comes back on her own, or never again?"
The man roared: "She is our teammate, not a tool that can be bullied and used at will!"
"
Bai Qi raised her eyebrows, looking at him as if she was looking at a dead mentally retarded, "Aya has no mature thinking ability, she often makes some impulsive decisions - such as In the battle with the giant mutant half a month ago, I saved you from the zombies."
He laughed: "Your ability seems to have appeared after that battle, right?"
Zheng Wu really kneeled this time.
He had to take a new look at this lovable, baby-faced youth, even though Bai Qi seemed to speak well, every word he spit out could pierce his ribs.
Feeling more and more strange eyes projected on him, he gritted his teeth and admitted: "I do have selfishness, plus Aya has always wanted to challenge that person, so I took her away ...But I really didn't expect that she would not come back! In this way, in order to atone for the merit, I will go with you to find it, and it's a big deal to fight that **** again!"
The first half of the sentence is true, the second half is bragging. But it was impossible for him to admit that he couldn't walk in Tang Xiao's hands for only a minute, which was too embarrassing.
“Boom-boom-boom-”
The sound of the bell came from outside the window, followed by a formal but not somber music, breaking the tense atmosphere in the room.
The players looked at each other and their expressions changed slightly.
Today is the celebration of the base, these famous "heroes" must attend, but Tang Xiao is likely not to go. This greatly weakens their energy to find someone, and maybe some southern players will take advantage of it.
The situation is bad for them.
Zheng Fifty-Fen will observe words and expressions, and hurriedly volunteered when he saw this: "I am willing to lead the rest of the team to conduct a carpet search, and I will definitely bring Aya back safely!"
Chou Brown is no longer a rookie, but they really don’t have many people available now, so those bell-like black eyes stared at him for a while, or let him say, “Hurry up, if there is another problem , you don't have to come back."
Abandoning teammates for quick success and killing children under ten years old, no matter how powerful this kind of person is, he will never accept Dahei, bah, and brown hatred.
The celebration was held in the central square.
Tang Xiao walked in the crowd, there were people everywhere, there were old people with gorgeous hair, and there were children sitting on the heads of their parents. It was the first time she had seen so many people since being thrown into the game.
The world outside is dead silent, and here is like the last Garden of Eden.
As the celebration got closer and closer, the crowd became denser and denser. Tang Xiao saw a familiar person—Zhang Xiangyuan.
This gloomy-looking man was pale and covered his heart. He looked like he fell to the ground and touched porcelain at any time. and avoid it.
Tang Xiao: "…"
"Tang...cough!" Zhang Xiangyuan called her in surprise, swallowed halfway, looked around a few times, and then sneakily pulled Tang Xiao to the corner: "Where did you go yesterday? Why haven't I found you?"
Tang Xiao entered the base the day before yesterday, and today is the third day she came in. Through Zhang Xiangyuan's concise and protracted explanation, I learned that yesterday, there were several forces who wanted to contact her secretly and secretly, but found her He disappeared all day, only to return home in vain.
Zhang Xiangyuan looked at her carefully: "Tang Xiao, have you met..."
Seeing Tang Xiao nod, he breathed a sigh of relief, "The system has always prohibited me from revealing the existence of another camp to you, so I have to remind you in a subtle way. I want to take advantage of the fact that you don't know the situation... Wait a minute," Zhang Xiangyuan suddenly blinked twice, his already weak face even paler, "You won't have already fought with them?"
Seeing the girl's unpredictable expression, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart and stuttered and asked, "Are you not injured? What happened yesterday?"
Tang Xiao thoughtfully took out a small bottle of quick-acting heart-relieving pills from his jacket pocket for him, with a relaxed tone: "It's not a big deal, I captured an opponent yesterday, and I learned about the faction by the way, now this group Enemy players are looking for me all over the base, I should almost find it."
Zhang Xiangyuan: "???"
Zhang Xiangyuan: "!!"
