Chapter 72:
Battle Royale, throw everyone into the same map, escape within a limited time, kill each other, until there is only one person left in the end, can you become a survivor.
Anyone who has heard this word and heard that he may face such a situation is unlikely to be happy.
"Thank you for reminding me," he said in a deep voice.
Tang Xiao was not surprised at all, she had long seen that although Qiu Brown seemed to be a good old man with IQ and muscle, he acted resolutely and decisively. He has his own teammates and goals, and even if the system really doesn't work, it won't cause chaos because of changes.
If there is a battle royale, Tang Xiao thinks that he must be one of the last people alive.
What's more... what she guessed was an extreme case.
Tang Xiao is not afraid to speculate the game with the worst malicious intentions, so that he can have a fight when the worst happens. This is also because she has always had bad luck. She can even encounter such unfortunate things as being pulled into the krypton gold game just after bankruptcy. How can she expect such a good thing to easily wait for customs clearance at the capital base?
But...
"But if you carefully study the tasks and rules that the game has been releasing, you will find that it does not want to kill us, and even faintly points out a clear path."
After Bai Qi said this, she opened up her title in her mind. A burst of green light immediately appeared above his head, and the four characters were bright and dazzling: [Hope Pioneer].
The green light was so dazzling that many players in the room were flashed. Someone thought, "Deputy team, isn't this the title you and the captain got in a plot mission?"
Bai Qi smiled: "Yes, a series of plot missions named after the word hope are the main missions that we can and only find in the game at present, and this title..." He pointed Pointing to the top of his head, "It's the reward for completing the task."
This mission process is a bit confusing, but the main line is very simple, which is to help a small unit of the capital base to repel the zombies and ensure that the soldiers do not lose more than half. Many players had just been beaten by Qiu Brown at the time, and joined Qiu Brown's team with the intention of hugging their thighs, and also participated in this mission behind their butts.
There were not many zombies at that time, and the task difficulty was very low, and everyone didn’t take it seriously. But who knew that on the way back to the base, the army leader suddenly mutated on the spot, and turned into an obese infected person higher than the ordinary infected person, easily tearing the defense line they established from the inside. The crowd didn't notice for a while, and they lost several players by surprise. The battle attracted more zombies, and soon they gathered into a small wave of corpses, and even the mutants were attracted in the end, and the simple task became dangerous. , extremely terrifying.
The players are surrounded by enemies, most of them come from a peaceful environment, and face the terrible scene surrounded by corpses in person. When many people broke through and fled, they were unwilling to continue this mission.
But at the cusp of the storm, Captain Qiu Brown resolutely decided to continue the mission. He gave the remaining players a choice. Those who are willing to leave can leave with weapons, but they will never join in the future. them.
After a tragic battle, they finally arrived at the base and became civilian "heroes" recognized by the military. Several team members including Qiu Brown, Aiya, and Zheng Wu made breakthroughs in this battle, but only Qiu Brown and Bai Qi were finally awarded the title of "Pioneer of Hope".
Bai Qi's voice made everyone detached from their memories, he said lightly: "This title will show different effects on different people... For me, its effect is foreknowledge."
This is the first time he has said this, and many people in the room immediately gasped. Even the preoccupied players suddenly woke up and looked at Bai Qi.
See the future!
If Bai Qi, the think tank of the team, could have foreseen the future long ago, then all the layouts he had made in order to obtain the "general trend" were based on the ability to predict the future. This big killer, can they be invincible when facing other players and even the plot?
Excited for less than a second, the next moment, Bai Qi's voice clearly entered everyone's ears: "It did give me some additional information, but the information is just information, it does not have Any effect. It only works if people judge and act on it.”
"Today I found out that some of my judgments may have been wrong."
Bai Qi is the team's think tank. His plan makes the players mix well in the base, and from time to time they follow the army out to harvest points, which is many times better than the precarious situation before. Most of the players in the team trust him very much, and at the same time they know how proud he is, with a gentle smile on his face, but the consequences of offending him are worse than offending the captain.
How serious is it that he can admit his mistake in front of everyone?
In just ten minutes, I have experienced several ups and downs, and I can't stand the steel heart. Please beg a knife to give them a good time!
The teammates were all holding their chests in their hands and looking fragile, Bai Qi came to a conclusion slowly: "If I guessed correctly, the vitality given by the game is probably the main mission of the Hope series. They not only include reward items for players, but also ways to clear customs. For example, because of this mission, we came to the capital base ahead of schedule and took the lead. Haven't you noticed that more and more players are coming here from all over China? ?"
"The so-called rule of killing players to get points is to promote our differentiation and growth on the one hand, and it is also a smoke bomb on the other hand. It makes us exhausted in endless internal friction, and because we despise the game The main storyline and the self-deceiving escape and missing clues... so that in the end, when everyone inevitably realizes that something is wrong, it's too late."
The voice fell, but Bai Qi stopped talking. He stood up, half of his face not immersed in the dark side of the light and shadow, "The captain should have returned, I will pick them up. As for you... Now you can decide whether to stay or not. Just like before coming to the base, you can leave whenever you want. Leave, I no longer ask you to pay for the team, you have absolute freedom to control the rest of the game - until the end."
"And those who choose to stay, start preparing for the worst now."
It took no more than fifteen minutes in total from when Qiu Brown sent a distress signal to the arrival of the base troops. Looking at the helicopter in the sky, the surrounded duo raised their hands obediently and waited for the inspection, as if the ruthless man who shredded the mutant was fake.
After confirming that the two were not infected and did not even have any obvious wounds on their bodies, the two were taken to the helicopter, while other comatose people, including Colonel Feng, were taken back by transport vehicles. The soldiers who were in charge of picking up the people didn't ask them anything, and Tang Xiao didn't speak, quietly watching the towering steel gate of the base getting closer, her heart became more and more quiet.
She's not good at layout strategies or something. With the route of gathering players to form a team to be the boss, the system probably won't let her do as she wishes. Since entering the game, she spent most of the time brushing dungeons and monsters by herself. After meeting Chen Guangpang Zhou and the others, she was the next person to brush monsters while they were watching.
She just wanted to be an ignorant rich man, but was forced to become a non-poor player.
She has no interest in being the first in the so-called standings, but she is forced to report to the system every day, becoming a thorn in the eyes of many players.
As long as the dungeon she experiences, the difficulty is either a nightmare level, a **** level, or an unsolvable bug level. Breaking through the limit, even the big move to take away the giant mutant this time, she only dared to think about it in her mind. When she was able to use it successfully today, even she was shocked.
In Qiu Brown's eyes, she raised her hand and took back the spiritual power ball, but in fact Tang Xiao had half of his body removed, and his facial nerves could not be mobilized, let alone Made an expression.
Tang Xiao sighed silently, and said to the customer service in the chat box:
"I'm getting poorer and stronger."
Customer Service: "…"
#Today is also a day when I don't want to talk to the client#
But it is destined not to get what it wants. Rather than thinking about things, Tang Xiao prefers to do things. She closed her eyes and rested, but she kept typing in her mind.
[Customer service, is there any way to make money in the game? Any method will do. ]
Customer Service: [There are three ways to get points, one: Players can kill other players and get one-fifth of the opponent’s points…]
Tang Xiao interrupted it: [I'm asking about money, game currency, the kind that can be bought in the system mall, the resurrection point to buy life! ]
The customer service was silent for a while, and replied with a bit of schadenfreude: [Sorry, players in this dungeon cannot obtain game coins through any non-recharge methods. ]
Tang Xiao stared at the chat box in his consciousness, and saw that the customer service was a little guilty, so he asked coldly: [What is a non-recharge method? ]
The customer service breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said: [Non-recharge methods include but are not limited to: transfer between players, special dungeon rewards, bounty tasks, lottery draws…! ]
The customer service didn't realize that something was wrong until halfway through, but the words that were sent out could not be withdrawn, only when Tang Xiao raised the corners of his lips: [Thank you. ]
Being caught up again! !
The customer service is like a white radish beaten by frost, sitting in despair, dejected because Tang Xiao used words to deceive information.
In this dungeon, you cannot use these methods to make money. Does that mean that it can be done after returning to the Noah Alliance or in other dungeons? Tang Xiao seems to see the future with nothing
The scene of starting one's own self-reliance and finally getting rid of poverty, I suddenly felt that life is promising, full of motivation, and even the air is full of freedom and sweetness.
She is in a good mood, and the sun is even brighter: [These information game rules do not allow customer service to reveal to players? ]
Customer Service: […No. ]
Tang Xiao: [How did I find out, you don't seem to want me to know this? do you hate me? ]
Customer Service: […No such thing. ]
Tang Xiao: [Then you are targeting me because I didn't charge! ]
Customer Service: [Customer service treats all players equally. ]
Tang Xiao: [We have a small flame of friendship! The system has proven that I am a good friend of customer service, but you treat me and other players equally? ]
Customer Service: […]
Tang Xiao: [Heh. ]
Silence for more than ten seconds, the customer service who was reassured finally gave in to the evil forces, and fired a lot of words like a small cannon, filling the entire chat interface.
Tang Xiao glanced at it roughly, and it not only wrote about various channels for earning game currency through "non-recharge methods" to get rid of poverty and become rich, but also wrote many precautions in detail. In addition, there are various rules that have been released in this world, and the customer service has even sorted out all the notifications sent by the system from the beginning of the game to the present, which is very considerate and considerate.
Then it quickly went offline, pretending to be a white radish that couldn't speak, and wept silently.
…
When Tang Xiao finished reading the entire page of rules, the base arrived. She and Qiu Brown got off the helicopter and saw many familiar figures.
Bai Qi's genial baby face still had a smile like a spring breeze, Qiu Brown laughed heartily, and reached out to pat his shoulder: "Don't worry, I'm fine!"
The baby-faced military advisor didn't even look at his captain, he walked directly to Tang Xiao, his voice was steady and could not tell his emotions: "Miss Tang, thank you for your reminder. I have always been conceited and smart, but I was misled by the small pattern. , I'm ashamed that I can't even see such a simple situation. I lost this time. In return, if I have a chance to see you in the future, if Miss Tang is in a difficult situation, I will give it for free without harming our interests. Miss Tang, a reminder."
Tang Xiao: "...Thank you?"
Chou Brown: "??"
He scratched his head, "I seem to be your captain, don't you care about me?"
Bai Qi then looked at him with an indifferent expression, "Okay, then you can explain why you led a team out of the base without notice, disregarding your own influence and causing The team is panicking, Captain."
Under the aggravated captain's words, Tang Xiao seemed to see Qiu Brown, who was nearly 1.9 meters tall, shrink slightly, from self-confidence to a frown, as if he saw himself doing a self-criticism destiny.
As a temporary comrade-in-arms who just fought side by side, Tang Xiao was not only unsympathetic, but even wanted to laugh.
But soon she couldn't laugh anymore, because a bald head slowly walked out of the crowd, Chen Guang was supported by Zou Yiduo while hanging water, his face was darker than the bottom of the pot: "Did you mean to die before me?"
Zou Yiduo's dark circles from staying up too late also wrinkled into a ball, and cried out sadly: "Sister Xiao!"
Tang Xiao: "…"
The way of heaven is good for reincarnation, who the heaven will forgive.
Fortunately, everyone has something to do, so the farce didn't last long. Qiu Brown and Bai Qi went to the military headquarters, Tang Xiao first took Chen Guang back to the hospital, and then went to the research institute with Zou Yiduo, just in time for Professor Li and Fang Laowei to argue over a decision.
"Come, come, Xiao Zou," Professor Li immediately waved when he saw them, as if he could be regarded as a child who found someone to judge: "You are Laoguan's favorite student, tell me, the two of us Who is more reasonable?"
Old Fang glanced at them and said calmly: "What else do I need to say, most of the infection centers of the mutants are in the T-zone of the head and throat, so naturally we should take that tissue first Do a test."
Professor Li shook his head and retorted: "No no no, giant mutants are special, I think samples should be taken from the precranial H area first..."
Zou Yiduo did not dare to speak, seeing the two old professors arguing again, Tang Xiao coughed lightly, "Two professors, that giant mutant... Due to special reasons, the complete body no longer exists. Now, it is estimated that there is only a little minced meat left, and it should be impossible to tell which part it came from for a while."
Professor Li, Fang Lao: “…”
Zou Yiduo took the opportunity to take Tang Xiao away, and rambled about the results of the research on the infection data in Zhaixing City in the past two days.
."
The pressure the research institute is under is unimaginable, so sometimes even if it knows that the semi-finished vaccine made is destined to be discarded, it must continue to deliver new results. If the army is the security guarantee of the entire base, then the academy is the spiritual pillar, and the two are indispensable.
Tang Xiao looked out the foggy window and saw mist on the glass. He suddenly remembered the day when the game "Infinite Doomsday" was in the public beta. Players manipulated their characters to come to this world, The empty street also seemed to be filled with heavy fog, obstructing the player's vision and hiding the danger and murderous intent in the thick fog.
That day is July 27, 2020, and the in-game time is also July 27, which is today.
At this moment, she suddenly began to think, does this fog symbolize the beginning or the end?
—She really is not suitable for thinking about such philosophical questions. Tang Xiao looked away and said in a clear voice, "Those who are still alive are both a vaccine and an antidote. As long as there are people, there is hope."
.
As long as she is by her side, she will feel more secure.
July 27th, at 2:15 pm, the system will announce all on time.
】
[All players who open the supply will get a hint, and they can use the hint to complete the final mission and leave the world of this dungeon. 】
[Starting at 14:15 on July 27th, players of the same camp will not change the points for killing each other, and killing players of the other camp will get all the points of the defeated player. 】
[The top 100 players in the standings can get a low-level supply at 0:00 every day. 】
[Point system adjustment: every time an infected person is killed, the player will get 10 points; if an obese infected person is killed, the player will get 50 points; if a normal mutant is killed, the player will get 500 points Points; kill a spider mutant/tentacle mutant/flying mutant, the player will get 2000 points; kill a giant mutant, the player will get 10000 points]
[Kill the final form of the virus variant, you can directly clear the game and get special rewards. 】
One by one, the rules were issued in unwavering mechanical sounds, until at the end, the system was rarely silent for a few seconds.
[In the escape mode, only ten players can become survivors and be teleported out of the dungeon world. All remaining losers will be wiped out. 】
The mechanical voice repeats:
[In the escape mode, only ten players can become survivors... All remaining players who fail will be obliterated. 】
Finally, it says:
【Please play the game actively and work hard to pass the level! 】
The air seemed to suddenly become quiet.
Residents are still celebrating the festival, the streets are lively and lively, but this liveliness is separated from some people and blown away by the thick fog.
Agitated, chilled, silent, restless, panicked.
Only the sound of the clock turning, suddenly became extraordinarily clear.
At 14:15 on July 27th, the system announced new rules.
At 15:30, the system notified that the sixth resurrection point had fallen.
At 16:25, the Capital Base Research Institute concluded that the virus mutated again and all existing vaccines were disabled.
At 17:00, the Military Department officially issued the Volunteer Army Recruitment Order. At the same time, Tang Xiao, Zhang Xiangyuan, Bai Qi and others became the first batch of volunteer army members, responsible for participating in the special task of cleaning up infected people near the base.
At 18:30, the first group of southern players arrived at the capital base.
At 20:00, the blockade of the base was lifted, and players from the south entered the base.
At 21:00, the second batch of players joined the Volunteer Army.
From 21:00 to 23:00, a small fight broke out among the residents of the base, which was quickly brought under control without causing casualties.
Supply distribution for the top 100 players in the standings!
