Abnormal paradise

While Ember was frantically beating the spirit creature tokens, the guard team on the ground also began to fight the enemy.

The expected Chaos Apostles followed closely and used high explosives to break open the steel gates. Hearing the roar approaching, the guard adjutant immediately activated most of the traps. The entire dark passage suddenly turned into a thunder prison of annihilation in a flash of electric light, making it impossible for the leading troops of the Chaos Apostles to escape and turned into electric snakes. Coke, heavy casualties in an instant.

Crack!

Fish Scale Arm and three other players who were hiding behind the bunker were extremely surprised when they saw this situation. They thought that this battle royale was just a one-sided escape, but who knew that the guard team had such a sharp counterattack! However, the players did not know how solemn the guard adjutant was. Since there were many dangerous anomalies in the area patrolled by the Third Guard, they were specially equipped with powerful suppression methods to avoid disasters caused by the escape of an anomaly. chain reaction.

But now that he has to use this trump card on the Chaos Apostles, he no longer has the confidence to deal with the large number of dangerous anomalies ahead that may break through the containment.

At this time, the guard adjutant could only place his hope on the embers and tomorrow's rain. It would be great if he could successfully retrieve the fifth guard officer's access control, but if he could not get it back, he would have no choice but to break into the dragon's pond and tiger's den. .

A lightning strike trap was far from enough to repel the pursuers, so the guard adjutant immediately organized all the guards to shoot at the thunder hell. The Chaos Apostles, who had barely gathered the remaining troops, were temporarily unable to break through the trap area where the lightning was not exhausted, so they could only choose long-range fight back.

For a moment, the passage space in front of the endless stairs was filled with bullets.

Da da da da da…

Flames shuttled and bullets flew.

The three players who dared to show their heads just now had no choice but to hide with their heads in their hands. At the same time, blue light curtains appeared in front of guards one after another to block the bullets from the Chaos Apostles.

In the entire No. 19 Hidden Facility, the equipment level of the Third Guard Corps is considered to be one of the best. Although due to regulations, it cannot be equipped with special equipment derived from anomalies, it is even better than the sudden attack of the Chaos Apostles. Press firmly over one end.

Therefore, in this long-range battle, the third guard team did not lose anyone, but the Chaos Apostles once again lost their troops.

However, the guard adjutant clearly realized that continuing to block the attack was not a long-term solution. The lightning trap was about to dissipate. At that time, the Chaos Apostles who had been suppressed for a long time would show their crazy posture. You must know that close combat is not the strength of the guards. It can even be concluded that the reason why the fifth guard group was destroyed here was because the Chaos Apostles approached them without fear of death, which prevented many firearms and equipment from showing their full potential.

"Is there still no movement in the endless staircase?"

As he spoke, the guard adjutant took out a special grenade from his waist and suddenly threw it forward. This was the basic component of the lightning trap. Due to time constraints, the trap could not be completely completed, so there were a few left.

Just then, a very embarrassed Tomorrow Youyu ran out from the stairway.

Now, he was still rejoicing that he had escaped. He was completely confused about the current situation. Just when he saw the three players hiding in the corner, he lifted off the ground uncontrollably with an explosion.

Boom!

The effect of high-explosive grenades is extremely good. The explosion effect caused the induction of lightning traps. The dancing electric snakes spat out messages again, causing great suffering to the Chaos Apostles who were waiting for an opportunity to break in. It also bought precious time for the evacuation of the guard team.

Unprepared for the rain tomorrow, it was like a kite with a broken string flying upside down and hitting the wall, and the blood volume was suddenly reduced by more than half.

The guard adjutant didn't care whether he was dead or alive. He rushed forward in two or three steps, lifted the unlucky player from the ground who was dizzy from the fall, and asked in a deep voice: "Where is the access card? Why are you the only one?" Is someone back?"

At this time, Tomorrow Youyu, who was being bombarded by 360-degree three-dimensional noise, could only endure the discomfort and came up with the excuse he had prepared: "We encountered a monster halfway, and I was the only one to escape." Come back."

"Damn it!"

At the critical moment, the guard adjutant did not doubt that he was there. He also no longer wanted to detour to the jurisdiction of the fifth guard team. He immediately decided to abandon the embers and command everyone to evacuate at full speed before the chaos apostles broke through the trap and let the rain quietly relax tomorrow. Take a breath.

After running up the stairs in a hurry, Tomorrow Youyu was out of the range of the gray ghost face. However, he was still frightened and did not dare to fight back. However, he was unwilling to return without success, so he decided to lie early in the morning and let the adjutant of the guard leave the embers. It's too good to be true. Anyway, the current Abnormal Paradise doesn't even have communication capabilities. Isn't it true or false all depends on his mouth?

Although Tomorrow It Will Rain's performance can deceive the characters in the game, it cannot deceive these two shrewd people, Fish Scale Arms and Not a Master. This mission is obviously given to Ember for free. How can it be possible that Tomorrow It Will Rain is the only one who can escape?

There must be something wrong with this kid!

They quietly exchanged glances, and then quietly set off on the road again together with Tomorrow Youyu, who had successfully "returned to the team".

…

Yi Yan didn't know what was happening on the ground. He was just counting the time on the bright flashlight. When he reached five minutes, he suddenly chose to stop.

One thing that surprised him was that with his current physical limitations, even if he didn't waste a second, he wouldn't be able to complete the entire task process within five minutes. During this period, he not only had to run up and down forty flights of stairs, but also had to go through a battle, describe his purpose to the dying fifth guard officer, and receive follow-up tasks. The total time spent was definitely more than five minutes.

Could it be that I missed the key? Or is this mission a design error?

Ember shook his head and felt that both ideas were inaccurate. The current assessment route was very single and there was almost no additional information. It was unlikely that he would miss the key to the mission. Rather than attribute it to a design error, Ember felt more like it was intentional by the designer. for!

Looking back at the mission description, not only is there no time limit, but the delivery target is not even specified. Compared with the harsh conditions of escorting the key, it is not even a bit worse.

Thinking of this, Yi Yan was almost certain that when he walked in front of the fifth guard officer, he was already destined to act separately from other players, and such a result would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous. Without the protection of the guard, he would be able to move at any time. They may all die in an accident, but what lies behind the danger also makes Yi Yan secretly excited.

It's not that the master gained an experience advantage through special tasks, but he got a more dangerous task. If he could survive the trap, then what he got would definitely not be as simple as just rich experience.

Faced with this situation, Ember will certainly not back down. Although he does not have a strong desire for the senior title like a walking horse, a difficult challenge is enough to arouse Ember's belligerent mentality.

However, being enthusiastic is not the best way to face the problem. Yi Yan suppressed his heartbeat and began to think about how he should act next.

The silent air and dark vision created an excellent environment for him to think.

"Assuming that the adjutant of the guard will encounter the Apostle of Chaos when the five minutes are up, then there must be a fierce fight above. The adjutant of the guard is responsible for the task of assisting the control center, so he will only use traps to delay time, and it is impossible to fight with Chaos. The apostles are fighting to death. In this case, no matter what the battle situation is, if I just rush out like this, there is a 70% to 80% chance of running into the chaos apostles. If my judgment is correct, staying here temporarily will be the best choice. .”

Yu Yan used all the information at hand to analyze the general situation, so he simply turned off the flashlight, stopped on the tenth floor of the stairs, and began to think more deeply.

"It's impossible for the mission designer to allow me to hide in the endless stairs until the assessment is over, and it's impossible for me to leave the mission unfinished. So the question is, how long should I hide? Who broke into the 19th Hidden Facility? There are more than one group of Chaos Apostles, and the destruction of the Fifth Guards is likely to be known to the mastermind behind the scenes. There is no guarantee that the other party will not send more manpower to attack the control center and explore the endless stairs to find the solution to the abnormal item [Active Software]. Seal the key.”

Yi Yan silently speculated, and frowned: "You can neither leave too early nor delay too late. This is not easy to handle! If there are no hints or signs, and it is entirely up to the players who are not familiar with the place to make their own judgments, then this mission The difficulty is really comparable to a narrow escape."

There was no choice but to wait. Fortunately, five minutes passed. When his patience was about to run out, a valuable task reminder finally appeared.

The access permission card in his hand suddenly shook, and then scarlet words appeared on the card——

"The control center is in emergency, the control center is in emergency!"

This message flashed by, and if it weren't for Ember's quick reaction, he wouldn't even be able to see it clearly. Then Ember tried to use the card's communication function to contact the control center, but got a message that there was no signal. Obviously, the Chaos Beacon's information suppression on this hidden foundation facility still exists, and the distress signal just sent by the control center is more like a desperate call before death.

But no matter what, the expected sign finally arrived, and Yi Yan no longer cared about anything else, holding the short stick all the way up, and quickly rushed out of the endless stairs.

[Tip: You have completed the assessment task - recycle the access permission card and receive a contribution reward. 】

"Good guy, this half of the passage is about to collapse!"

Hearing the reminder that the mission was completed, and seeing the Chaos Apostle being crushed beneath the collapsed stone, Ember was thankful that he was still wise.

At this moment, the assessment time is approaching thirty minutes. As long as he persists for another half hour, he will get a passing evaluation.

But Ember obviously won't be satisfied with this.

Relying on the simple map on the back of the access authorization card, Ember quickly found the jurisdiction of the Fifth Guards. As a gate opened and fell, he embarked on his own lonely journey.
