24 hours to save the world

Zhu Shijiu waited for a long time.

He didn't calculate the exact time, and he didn't dare to take out his mobile phone to check the time in the dark, but when he saw the sky gradually getting brighter and the dawn sun shining through the distant clouds to illuminate the world, he finally realized that he had spent a night.

In the midst of full vigilance, he didn't dare to relax even a little bit, and finally spent a night safely.

Looking up at the sky, Zhu Shijiu wanted to curse.

He should... maybe... maybe... was fooled.

Thinking of this, he walked out directly from the back of the bunker, and the first thing he saw was a mess of the ground.

The ground was full of dead branches and leaves covered with white powder, and there were fragments of exploded dry powder fire extinguishers scattered all over the ground, plus the remnants of firecrackers, and a mannequin with half of its body blown up...

All these showed how fierce the battle last night was.

He walked in it recklessly, passed through this messy ground, and then walked deeper.

Dried black and red blood appeared in front of him, under a tree.

The pool of blood on the ground was quite obvious. Even in the early morning when the light was not good, it was clear that someone was seriously injured here, and the blood that flowed out was so much that a large area of ​​soil on the ground was stained black.

The answer was obvious.

One of them was shot by his three arrows, while the other was still alive and quietly left with the wounded who was not sure whether he was seriously injured or dead.

And he stayed in the woods like a fool, on guard for a whole night, tired, hungry and thirsty, and was bitten by insects from nowhere. He didn't dare to scratch it, for fear of making some noise and being discovered by the man in black.

"I..."

Zhu Shijiu almost couldn't breathe.

His face was not very good. He returned to the back of the initial shelter, put the bow and arrows into the bow bag, turned around and carried them on his back, and walked directly towards the dormitory building.

When Zhu Shijiu returned to the dormitory, he heard the deafening snoring of his roommate Li Hua. He looked at the time and found that it was only six o'clock in the morning. Even the dormitory aunt who liked to get up early for morning exercises had just gotten up. Li Hua, who usually liked to sleep until noon, certainly did not wake up.

Zhu Shijiu had stayed up all night, and his body was unbearably heavy, and his spirit was even more sluggish. After all, anyone who concentrated all night would face unstoppable fatigue. Zhu Shijiu, who was on guard under the crisis of life and death, could not bear it. He threw his bow bag on the table, went directly to bed, and fell asleep with his head touching the pillow.

…

"Fuck! Pentakill! I'm invincible today!"

Zhu Shijiu was awakened by Li Hua's shouting.

When he heard this voice, Zhu Shijiu only knew that he had returned to the game again.

Moreover, his spirit and energy reached the peak at the moment of consciousness. He was not tired after staying up all night, but was refreshed after waking up naturally.

However, compared to this refreshing feeling, Zhu Shijiu felt extremely confused.

The last round was the tenth round, and the process of fighting with those men in black did make him grow a lot. At least in terms of archery, he can compare with those archery novices who have practiced for one or two months - although he can't accurately hit the ten rings, at least he won't miss the target.

Especially in actual combat, he is confident that he can hit the target-sized head with every arrow.

But what's the use of all this?

The flexibility of the men in black is slightly stronger than he thought.

If you can beat him, kill him, if you can't beat him, retreat.

He can hardly see any chance of winning in a head-on confrontation with those men in black. In the last round, he has already reached his current limit. Under this limit, if the opponent is willing to fight with him, he can also find a way to further use multiple replays to kill the opponent again and again.

However, the problem now is that the opponent is unwilling to fight with him, and he doesn't even know how those men in black left.

What should he do?

"Yesterday" felt frustrated after discovering this dilemma. Finally, he was exhausted for a whole night and broke his defense. Finally, he chose to be killed by the doomsday in his sleep.

Now it's the eleventh round.

Zhu Shijiu still feels that he is in deep confusion.

"Brother Zhu, did you see it? My God, I just got a pentakill! Is it strong?"

Li Hua's voice sounded.

Zhu Shijiu, who was irritated, turned over in bed.

"I didn't see it, I didn't see it, go play somewhere else! I'm annoyed now."

"What's wrong, Brother Zhu? You haven't got a pentakill, right?" Li Hua's smug look looked very annoying, "I tell you, I had a hunch that I could get a pentakill, and if my hand hadn't shaken at the end, I would probably have gotten a six kills! You didn't see it, it's not that the opponent is too bad, but that I'm too strong..."

Zhu Shijiu didn't listen at all, turned sideways with his back to Li Hua and didn't want to talk.

"Brother Zhu, what happened to you?"

Li Hua stopped talking about the game at this time. Perhaps he saw that Zhu Shijiu was worried, so he asked.

"Did you have a nightmare?"

"Nightmare? Haha."

If it was just a nightmare, it would be fine, but what he encountered was a reality that was even more nightmare than a nightmare. He didn't want Li Hua to fall into the predicament of being caught by the man in black again. He had already made up his mind not to drag Li Hua into the water, so he kept silent about what happened to him.

"Fuck, Brother Zhu, you are not heartbroken, are you?" Li Hua asked a series of questions in a hurry, "Who is the other party? Do you have a photo? Did you just confess and get dumped? Or did you have a crush on the other party and suddenly found out that the other party has a boyfriend?"

"What the hell is going on?" Zhu Shijiu finally couldn't help but replied.

Li Hua didn't care about the impatience in Zhu Shijiu's tone, and pestered him, "Tell me about it, Brother Zhu, you are really rare now."

Zhu Shijiu sighed, "Even if I tell you, you won't understand. If your opponent in the game is very strong, but very cautious, if he can beat you, he will crush you, and if he can't beat you, you will just run away. What will you do?"

Li Hua was stunned, "What's there to not understand? Isn't that how the game is played? If the opponent can't beat me but still fights me, isn't that just a primary school student who is just giving away heads? The purpose of the game is to push the tower, not to kill people. Brother Zhu, you asked such an idiotic question."

Zhu Shijiu twitched his mouth.

I am embarrassed to say that I am an idiot and I have only figured this out now.

After being killed several times in a row, he thought that his opponent was a hardliner, but in fact, the black-clad man had only one purpose, which was to kidnap Brother Pian, and then interrogate him and Li Hua in the fourth round, and ask Brother Pian about the manipulator behind the scenes.

This also meant that the black-clad man would not get entangled with him.

This is obviously a very simple truth, but it is a pity that he only figured it out in this round.

Zhu Shijiu was extremely depressed, sighing and muttering: "If it were you, maybe you could do better than me..."

At this time, he was really tired.

Why was he the one who went back to the game, not Li Hua or other more capable people? He was clearly just an ordinary person who was worried about the exam not long ago.

Li Hua did not hear what Zhu Shijiu said clearly, but he clearly felt Zhu Shijiu's depression.

He understood that Brother Zhu was defeated in the game and his mentality was unbalanced.

So he said, "Brother Zhu, I'm telling you the truth, please don't mind it."

"What?"

"I think in games, you shouldn't always think about carrying the whole game. There are so many masters who are better than you. Why don't you hug their thighs, but instead be a primary school student who always likes to give away heads? Giving away heads is really not a good habit. Giving away heads too much will make you lose easily."

Hearing this, Zhu Shijiu was in a trance.

He murmured, "But if you lose..."

Li Hua said casually, "If you lose, just play again. After all, there is another game after one game is lost. And if you give away heads, won't you lose? You will lose anyway, why do you have to give away heads to be happy? The master carries the whole game, can't you just follow him?"

"..."

Seeing Zhu Shijiu looking thoughtful, Li Hua wanted to complain why a rookie bronze player treated himself so seriously, but after thinking about it, he persuaded him.

"And clinging to someone's thighs doesn't mean you just do nothing. You can learn from the great masters. When you become a great master, you can carry the whole game, right?"

Zhu Shijiu was stunned for a moment and then said, "What if the opponent is a professional master..."

It seems that Brother Zhu has met a professional player.

Li Hua shook his head. This is too much of a nitpicking. But who isn't a nitpicker these days? Brother Zhu can argue, so why can't I?

He turned around and said, "If the opponent is a professional master, can't you find a professional master too?"

"How can I find one? I don't know such a great master."

Even Coach Du, the teacher who taught him archery, may not be strong enough to fight against a strong man who catches arrows with his bare hands.

This made Li Hua unable to argue.

Li Hua was embarrassed and angry and said, "Hey, I'm just surprised. Brother Zhu, a rookie bronze, how can you be ranked among the professional masters? Could it be that those professional masters don't have their own opponents and are demoted to the bronze zone to pick rookies like you?"

-In an instant! Zhu Shijiu suddenly realized!

A series of questions flashed through his mind like lightning.

Why?

Don't the group of men in black have their own enemies?

If there are really no enemies, why did they sneak into the campus and quietly kidnap those who spread the rumors of the end of the world the day before the end of the world, instead of announcing the end of the world to the world with fanfare?

Why did they interrogate him and Li Hua overnight after they caught him in the four eyes, and didn't even want to wait for one night?

These men in black who have mastered the advanced technology and are qualified to confront any nuclear power in the world, why are they so cautious and cautious like a frightened old dog?

He has never heard of the existence of the men in black. Does this mean that in a place he doesn't know, there may be another organization that he doesn't know about, which can compete with the men in black and make the men in black afraid?
