Chapter 174 City
“This situation has happened before. Ordinary people were involved in the killing field and ‘frozen’ for a period of time, and their memories stayed at the moment before the disappearance.”
Zhao Zijin asked Catherine and others: "Have you heard that a voice said something in your mind, such as tasks, rewards, punishments, etc."
The three ordinary people looked at each other and nodded hesitantly. Head down.
“Very good.”
Zhao Zijin took out three pieces of paper and pen and handed them over, "Each of you, write down everything you heard. These words appear directly in your minds and you will not forget them in a short time."
Three After the person finished writing, he handed the paper over. The information on it was basically the same as the task Li Sheng and the others received. The task name was also Electric Energy Retrospection, but there was an extra item in the reward. Completing the task would lead to player qualifications.
The rest of the reward items have also been reduced a lot, in line with the level of new players.
Click, click, click—
At this time, the sound of mechanical operation was heard in the tunnel behind, and a crab-shaped killing field security guard the size of a car with eight legs slowly walked toward everyone. .
The red rider subconsciously took out two Poké Balls and clamped them in his palms, and the Monster Alliance's Midnight Howl also tightened his arm muscles.
Fortunately, the security guard had no intention of attacking, but slowly knelt down. The carapace on his back automatically opened, and a battery rose from his body.
The battery is cylindrical in shape, about the size of a bucket, and is composed of crystal and metal. It emits light yellow light inside, and the overall shape has a sci-fi feel.
[Item Name: Concentrated Energy Battery]
[Type: Tool]
[Quality: Perfect]
[Special effects: Power supply. Absorb vacuum zero-point energy to power specific killing facilities. Space props cannot be loaded and cannot be taken away from the killing field]
"Huh?"
Li Sheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why didn't the killing field system add notes to this thing?"
“Maybe this energy-gathering battery is too important.”
The red driver said casually, and then watched Li Sheng take out a pen and paper and stick a note on the top of the battery.
[Remarks: “One section is better than six sections!” When interviewed by reporters, the top scorer in the college entrance examination revealed his learning secret of eating a Nanfu battery every time before class]
? ? ?
Zhao Zijin and the red driver almost couldn't stand it. They complained at the same time, "You guys haven't taken any advanced courses, have you?" This wicked remark style really has the charm of a killing system.
Zhao Zijin, in particular, has begun to wonder if this person is a non-staff member of the [Crazy Laughter Troupe].
On the top edge of the cylindrical battery, eight small devices like radar panels are hung in rings, which are also killing props.
[Item name: Guidance Radar]
[Type: Tool]
[Quality: Normal]
[Special Effect: Guide the way forward. When the button is pressed, a virtual line is generated pointing to the destination. Unable to load space props and cannot be taken away from the killing field】
Eight radars correspond to four players and four ordinary people.
Before a few people could figure it out, the crab-shaped security guard who completed the delivery task removed all the batteries and radar instruments, then folded and deformed from the inside out, switching to the form of a submarine. Lying quietly in the tunnel.
Boom!
There was a deafening sound of water flowing from behind the tunnel, the humidity in the air suddenly increased, and the entire tunnel was shaking.
“This is a flood discharge channel!”
Zhao Zijin's expression changed suddenly, and he turned to look at the alloy gate fifty meters away. The round metal door is extremely thick and heavy, and there are no valves or control panels around it, only a gap in the middle.
“Get out of the way!”
Midnight Howl seemed even more nervous than Zhao Zijin. He stepped on the ground and stepped forward. The muscles of his left leg expanded sharply during the run. And it grew gray hair and kicked it in the center of the metal door.
dang——
The alloy door opened slightly, and the high-pressure and humid air in the tunnel immediately poured out along the gap.
Midnight Howl had veins popping out on his forehead, and the muscles in his arms were bulging. He grasped the crack of the door with his palms and pushed forward with all his strength, forcefully pushing open the door that was nearly half a meter thick.
"Retreat!"
No need for the midnight howl to remind them, the red rider and three ordinary people were already running.
Li Sheng casually picked up the energy-gathering battery, while Zhao Zijin used his palms to release his telekinesis, gently lifted up the last unconscious burn patient, and took him with him.
Thousands of tons of flood water came quickly from behind. Everyone rushed to the end of the tunnel, only to find that it was a cliff more than 300 meters above the ground. Below lies an uninhabited, silent city of concrete.
The three ordinary people were so frightened that they screamed. Zhao Zijin couldn't tolerate them and pushed them all down with a wave of his hand. He followed closely behind, using his mind power to form an invisible slide, and landed lightly on the rooftop of a building below.
Players use various methods to jump off the cliff. Li Sheng releases the [Wing Gliding] temporary skill to slow down his fall and glide forward slowly.
The Red Rider released a Pidgeot Pokémon, holding the bird's claws in both hands, and was carried flying.
Midnight Howl was relatively simple. He took out the parachute bag from his backpack and put it on himself.
Everyone met on the rooftop of the building and turned around to see that the cliff was even more majestic than the super dam in the real world. Eight flood discharge tunnels and twenty arc-shaped gates discharge floodwater at the same time.
The water flowed through the dead city, quickly breaking down the street lamps and submerging the low-rise houses. Some high-rise buildings were not spared and collapsed one after another.
“Tsk, it’s so spectacular.”
Li Sheng sighed when he saw this: “Back then, my friend’s grandfather, his wife, and sister-in-law also watched the torrential flood coming in the same way.”
The red driver's eyelids twitched and he couldn't help but complain: "Is your friend's grandfather Xu Xian?"
"What are you talking about?" Li Sheng said inexplicably: "That was in Zhengzhou in 1938."
"Good guy, did Chiang Kai-shek bomb the Huayuankou?" The red driver's eyes twitched again and again. He hesitated to speak. Lao Chiang can only be described as "the excesses are greater than the excesses, the excesses do not cover up the excesses, the excesses and excesses are mixed, and the excesses and excesses add up".
Zhao Zijin reluctantly tensed up his expression, cleared his throat, and said: "First use the radar to detect the direction of the destination."
"Okay."
Li Sheng removed the radar instrument from the top of the battery and pressed the button. A faint blue light bloomed at the top of the instrument. Wisps of blue light formed in the air and turned into translucent arrows, pointing in the opposite direction of the dam.
This mission has a 48-hour time limit for the killing field. The destination will definitely not be close, and the legs will be exhausted.
Zhao Zijin took out a dragon ball capsule from the backpack column and threw it into the air.
The capsule opened on its own, and a thirty-meter-long expedition yacht appeared out of thin air and landed on the water.
“Wow, are the benefits of GOC so good?”
Midnight Howl’s eyes lit up. Expedition yachts are different from ordinary yachts. The former has more redundant designs and pursues It has high durability, high seaworthiness, high self-sustainability, and can adapt to harsher sea conditions, so the price is also more expensive than yachts of the same size.
"The organization just lent it to me temporarily."
Zhao Zijin mentioned it casually and called for everyone to board the ship.
