00183 Mission begins
No matter what Coco said, Qi Xuan still reacted lightly to the cold weapon in his heart, but he still asked Samantha to learn some about his neural connection.
"Do you prefer Western fencing, or Eastern martial arts?" Samantha's use of the sword is also distinguished by research.
Qi Xuan had no concept at all, but in his memory, the Oriental Martial Arts swordsmanship looked more chic, so he directly chose the Oriental one. After confirming the permission, Samantha immediately instilled a large amount of information into Qi Xuan's consciousness, although Qi Xuan had not learned it yet, but he could also follow the analogy of the cat and the tiger a few times.
Moreover, Qi Xuan had thought about it from the beginning, he would avoid engaging the enemy in close combat as much as possible.
After saying goodbye to the cheater, Jin Yu continued his creative journey, and Qi Xuan followed Coco back to the previous passage.
On the way, Qi Xuan asked why the city was so big, but there were still so many people living in the passage.
Coco's answer was that the current 103rd floor of Piano was still under construction, and people who did not have the ability to work were not allowed to enter the city, and only when the city was completed could they leave the passages that were originally used to transport water and materials to the city.
Qi Xuan was clear, no wonder he couldn't see the young man in the passage.
After following Coco all the way for five kilometers, the two of them left the passage and reached the 102nd floor.
This area is much darker than the 103rd floor.
Moreover, there is also a solemn and tragic scene that Qi Xuan has never seen before.
The entire 102-story area is a huge plaza-like area, where there are basically no buildings, and the ground is also made of metal pouring in one piece.
The reason why it gives people a sense of solemnity and tragedy. It's because there are countless corpses of humanoid mechanical creatures here, and they are as silent here as dead soldiers on the ancient battlefield.
And among these humanoid creations, there are many giants who kneel on their knees, their heads are lowered, and their hands are holding huge cold weapons, they look like they have a partial mechanical texture from the outside, but when they got closer, Qi Xuan found that their interiors were still composed of the bodies of living beings, and the posture of the death of these strange giants was exactly the same, which made the picture of them guarding the ninety-five-meter-high giant in the center convey a sense of ritual.
Walking along the edge of the square, Qi Xuan couldn't help but ask, "What happened here?" ”
Coco replied, "This is the temple that once belonged to King Arno, and when sin came, it became purgatory, and King Arno led the glorious guards of the temple to defend the last dignity of mankind with his life, but he himself was imprisoned in this cage forever. ”
'Uh...... Is this some kind of lore setting? Qi Xuan couldn't help but say secretly after hearing this.
"Is the King Arno you are talking about, the greatest?" Qi Xuan pointed to the Giant's Dao in the distance, which was located in the center of purgatory.
"No, he's over the head of the Lord of Sin." Coco pointed higher, where the only place in the entire 102nd floor had a light falling, and in that light, a standing king stood with his hands down, his sword piercing through the giant's skull, but the mortal wound also claimed his life.
Only then did Qi Xuan notice that there was another person on top of the giant's head.
Tut......
Faced with this picture, Qi Xuan didn't think much about it.
However, Coco's next words confirmed that Qi Xuan's heart was difficult to calm down for a long time.
"At first, like you, I didn't think it was worth seeing, it was just a legendary story, but then my mother-in-law told me that King Arno was also a human in the three-dimensional world, and he chose to stay to protect this place, and gave his life when sin was born from the order......" Coco retracted her gaze, she moved on, and then added, "He is a respectable man. ”
After Qi Xuan listened, his feelings changed a lot when he watched this scene again.
Sin is born out of order?
Does it mean that human beings themselves are the embodiment of sin? Qi Xuan had heard similar remarks, although he was not a reflector, but there were indeed many fanatical believers among those reflectors, and they had been spreading the theory of sin through various channels, at first Qi Xuan just felt disgusted, but now that he looked, there was an extra layer of blood.
The two of them left the 102nd floor to the 101st floor and did not continue on foot, but instead used a rusty flying machine that had changed their original path to vertical ascent.
So what would have taken 2 days was completed in less than 1 hour.
But when they reached the 72nd floor, they found that the difficulty of the task had increased a lot.
Not only is there a large influx of Hua here, but mechanical xenomorphs are also everywhere. The original and most important mission objective, "to intervene and restart the 72nd Layer Management Core", has also become even more difficult because Hua's tactical defense has taken shape.
"What to do? Do you want to go back to the 73rd floor? Temporarily abandon the 72nd floor? "Qi Xuan learned of more than 190 hostile targets through the matrix vision, of which Hua accounted for more than half.
Coco immediately denied: "No, after Hua opens the defense, he will invade the manager core on the 72nd floor, and once the invasion is completed, the manager core on the 70th-79th floor will be weakened by the defense, which is too big for our ultimate mission target image." ”
"But there are too many enemies, and I don't think the two of us are enough to deal with it." Qi Xuan is not a coward, but he is not a reckless man, he pursues a calm combat idea when fighting, and when facing a strength confrontation that exceeds expectations, frontal attack is not his style.
"I understand, wait a minute." Coco said as she opened her matrix vision and scanned the target area in all directions, then confirmed a new route.
"The plan has changed, we will dive directly under the target's cooldown module, and then I will complete the enemy cleanup, and you will be responsible for intervening and restarting the management core."
This plan is not bad, Qi Xuan nodded: "Understood." ”
As he spoke, the two turned on the crystallization hidden load, and their figures disappeared.
After a while, gunshots were heard from the core area of the manager of the defensive circle constructed by the seven thinking chariots, although it was not large, but it was quickly captured by the peripheral personnel. Aware of the enemy invasion, Hua immediately began a reverse cleanup.
But by the time they stormed into the manager's core area, Qi Xuan's job was done.
After the restart, the core of the manager was connected to the main energy source of the city, and the whole city began to tremble. When Hua was in shock on the trembling ground, with the sound of warning, dense mechanical guards emerged from all corners of the city, and they immediately formed a formation and began to attack Hua and the mechanical xenomorphs after being awakened.
Hua who was unguarded was soon crushed under this locust-like attack, and a large number of Hua were destroyed by the mechanical guards in the process of retreating, and then the mechanical worms in the city began to decompose and devour these dead Hua, and some of them who lost their combat effectiveness could only watch themselves being eaten by the mechanical worms little by little.
"Let's go, the next mission is L69, and the goal is to kill one of Hua's leaders." Coco took a look and turned the aircraft.
Qi Xuan turned around and looked at it a few more times, for some reason, although Coco told Qi Xuan that these Hua were enemies who violated the order, but judging from the scene of their desperate struggle, it was more like a group of people who were thrown up and then rose up to pursue hope.
Who is the good guy and who's the bad guy?
Qi Xuan began to wonder, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was no need to pursue the answer, because these existences were all virtual on the number order array, and the real world that really belonged to Qi Xuan was not here, what he had to do was to live and then return to that world.
……
Real-world *******
It has been a week since the game was suspended, and after a series of follow-up processing, on the morning of November 5th, "The Other Side of the Realm" officially issued an announcement that the previously suspended World League will continue, and taking into account the interruption of the video, the schedule will add an additional day, and the game time will be 5 days, and it is also announced that the veteran Qin Pin, who retired due to illness, has been cured and discharged from the hospital, and he will participate in the follow-up events.
After the announcement was issued, the media's attention was not focused on the event itself, but was very concerned about how Qin Pin felt about the sudden death of his apprentice and whether it would have some impact on his next competition.
Qin Pin's answer was brief: "I'm sad, but I'll work harder." ”
This response was very indifferent, making many people think that Qin Pin was a very impersonal master, and the media even revealed that Qin Pin had previously clashed with another of his apprentices in the restaurant where the event was held, and this apprentice was also taken away by the Order Keeper for trying to attack a high-ranking person like Han Kongwen.
These things eventually led to a significant decline in Qin Pin's popularity, and when the official saw this response, he also hurriedly led the wind guide to the game itself to divert the media's siege of Qin Pin.
But Qin Pin didn't think so after receiving these attacks, he accepted it very calmly, and replied: "This is my personal matter, and it has nothing to do with the competition. ”
……
Turning off the video information related to Qin Pin, Lin Yan's expression didn't look very good, especially after she witnessed what happened to Qin Pin, she began to be suspicious and afraid of the Order.
"The trial is ready, we can begin." Canaan walked into the laboratory, and when she saw Lin Yan's expression, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”
Lin Yan softened her expression when she heard this, and then replied, "It's nothing, let's start." ”
As she spoke, Lin Yan lay down on the special virtual interactive device, and then the capsule closed and the spiritual connection opened.
After the trial began, Han Kongwen, who was outside the laboratory, looked faint, and she asked Amy beside her, "Is this Qin Pin shaping too much?" ”
Amy replied, "There are always memory roots in his neural circuits that are difficult to erase, and these things can be easily aroused by some scenes or people, so we activated the 'puppeteer', which is a helpless move and a foolproof solution." ”
When she heard the puppeteer, Han Kongwen's expression turned cold, she smiled coldly, and turned to leave.
Watching Miss Han walk away, Amy also sneered, her eyes flickered a few times before recovering the round platform, followed by putting the queen in her hand on the table, and then gently pushed it down, and then said to herself: "It turns out that it's all true, heh...... It's hard to serve......"
