This Game Is Too Realistic

Chapter 968 A tentative confrontation

Edge Paddling led a group of players out of the camp, picked them up and got on the truck parked at the entrance of the camp, heading north of Yavente City.

Although the big eyes that handed out chocolates are gone, the beautiful legend about dog licking and the infinitely tall figure remain in the hearts of all the little girls.

Later, the matter spread to the ears of some fun people, and they suddenly seemed to have discovered a new world. One or two of them also enthusiastically started charity, so much so that the chocolates originally used to supplement the sugar and calories for frontline soldiers at several save points were all gone. Sold out.

And the story about dog licking also gradually went out of shape amidst the booing of the fun people...

It happened that at this time, Lao Na and Elf King Fugui had just returned from patrolling outside.

As soon as the two got off the car, they were surrounded by a group of cute children.

The Elf King Fugui smiled playfully and was about to say hello to them, but he didn't expect that as soon as the latter opened his mouth, he was shocked on the outside and tender on the inside, caught off guard.

"Miscellaneous fish! Candy!"

"Zhaoyu, Zhayu, hand over the candy quickly!"

"Trash fish, trash fish!"

Listening to the non-standard Mandarin, Elf King Fugui almost choked.

"Ahem, which dog coin... No, who taught you?"

Several girls aged eleven or twelve looked at each other, and the younger girl whispered.

"Uncle Mosquito won't let us say his name!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the girl with a ponytail next to her hurriedly covered her mouth.

"Shh! You spilled the beans!"

"Mosquitoes...I'm not surprised at all," Irena said with an expression of watching the excitement, and handed the chocolate she brought with her to a man who looked Wenwen quietly and had a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose. The girl said with a smile, "What else did Uncle Mosquito say? You told us secretly, but we won't tell him."

The quiet-looking girl, with rosy cheeks, struggled with the chocolate in her hand for a while, and finally gave the mosquito away.

"He also said that this is a Halloween custom. Every day on this day, the children of the Alliance just need to chant this spell to the residents of the shelter, and they can get candy..."

Elf King Fugui: "Pfft, why doesn't this guy do some human things all day long?"

"Hahaha! But don't you think it's interesting? It's not much money anyway." Irena laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. Under the confused eyes of a group of children, she gave them all the remaining chocolates, " Remember, this spell can only be used on good people like me, not bad people."

"A good person?" The quiet girl tilted her head.

Irena smiled and touched her little head.

"e... To put it simply, it's affordable. If someone runs out of candy, gets scared, or hurts you, just say 'I'm sorry' and run to find the next shelter resident."

The wasteland is miserable enough as it is, and a little more joy wouldn't hurt.

There is no Halloween in the city of Avente.

But now there is.

In the north of Yavent City, in the alley beside the logistics building, a body wearing an exoskeleton was surrounded by several soldiers of the Death Corps.

At first glance, the well-made equipment was not the product of the Southern Legion's extensive industry.

Thanks to the big-eyed chocolate, the team of Edge Paddling and the help of nearby children easily found the body lying next to the trash can.

Perhaps because of the long experience of war, these children were not afraid at all when seeing corpses. One of the boys, about twelve years old, even gestured with his index finger and the edge of the water.

"There was a big plane parked on the roof of the logistics building. Someone shot at them, and then the person fell down and died."

Debt asked with big eyes and doubts.

"Didn't the people on the plane come down to rescue him?"

Another boy, two years older, shook his head.

"Although they were well equipped, they didn't seem to be very capable of shooting. Snipers from a distance fired several shots at them. They didn't even know where the bullets came from, and they didn't fire back."

"That's right, that's right," the child on the side replied, staring directly at the candy left in Big Eye's hand, "They flew away directly."

The boy at the construction site asked Brick.

"Then which direction did you hear the gunfire coming from?"

"This way!"

Several children shouted in unison, but each hand pointed at a completely different point.

Not only were the construction workers and Edge Paddling dumbfounded, but the children themselves were stunned for a moment, and then started arguing over who was right.

Until then, a child standing in the corner sighed and whispered.

"It's obviously a Gauss rifle...what you heard was not the sound of a gun being fired at all."

He heard from his father that there are many kinds of Gauss rifles. Some bullets make a sound when they come out of the chamber, some can hear sonic booms in mid-air, and some use special warheads that only make a sound after hitting the target.

The construction site manager and Bing Shui looked at each other.

"The attackers have high technology... In short, this can be regarded as a clue."

"Could it be internal strife in the college?"

"With so much internal strife, why should you still be in Borneo Province?"

"It's just a guess, but I don't think this possibility is high..."

In this case, he should be a member of the Enlightenment Society.

He looked up at the roof of the logistics building, frowning slightly.

"...The bullet should have come from the other side of the building. Come with a few people and follow me to take a look."

"I'll go with you." The construction worker raised his hand and followed the captain consciously.

Debt Big Eyes scattered the remaining candies to the children who were still arguing about "which direction the gunfire came from."

"Okay, stop arguing. Put the gunfire aside for now... Then which way did the plane fly away?"

Several children looked at each other, but this time there was no dispute, and they unanimously pointed their index fingers to the top of their heads.

"It flew directly into the sky!"

"That's right! Just like an airship, it starts to spit fire when it flies into the sky, and then it disappears."

Flying vertically is fine.

The debt-ridden man held his forehead with a headache, and the roller shampooer smiled and patted his shoulder.

"Don't be discouraged. Maybe he just flew out of the atmosphere? This can be regarded as a clue."

On the other side, Bing Shui Shui and the construction workers walked around to the other side of the building and took a look at the northeastern suburbs of Yavent City.

There is a cluster of dormant apartment buildings, which look a bit like the Alliance's low-rent housing. However, judging from the dismantled scaffolding, these buildings have probably been suspended for a long time.

The resources in the wasteland are limited, and these resources not only refer to mineral resources, but also industrial power, construction power, labor force, etc.

Even the Southern Army, which has a colony of 2.7 million square kilometers, has difficulty balancing war and development at the same time. If you choose one path, you will have to stop on the other path.

After all, they don't have players who can't die.

Sometimes I can't help but wonder what an alliance would be like without players, or perhaps the alliance would never be born at all.

He had such thoughts not because he wanted to emphasize how important he was, and that the citizens of the alliance should be grateful. He was simply worried that if they left here one day, how would the people who stayed face the challenges that might occur in the future.

I don't know when it started, but it became increasingly difficult for him to treat the world as a game.

Or to put it another way.

He played this game with emotion.

"...Have you discovered anything?" The construction site boy and Brick glanced at him, interrupting his thoughts.

Edge of Water shook his head and put down the telescope in his hand.

"The buildings here are too dense. Bullets can come from anywhere... I don't know why these researchers chose this building. It's like a living target."

"I guess it's because this building can see the 'Tower of the World'." The boy at the construction site and Zhuan glanced towards the city. "I guess those researchers didn't expect that the war would be over and it would still be visible. Stealing ass.”

When he said this, he paused for a moment, and suddenly continued as if he thought of something.

"I'm wondering if there is a possibility that they were investigating the 'suspected brood creatures' in the Tower of the World, and people from the Enlightenment Society or other organizations were eyeing them."

Edge Paddling shook his head.

"No matter what the possibility is, it will be extremely difficult to find them... In short, let's recover the body of that unlucky guy first."

As he was speaking, he was about to turn around, when suddenly a warning sign came to his mind.

Time slowed down in an instant——

Or to be more precise, his brain's information processing speed doubled in an instant!

That's the perception talent he unlocked at level 30!

When danger is determined, adrenaline will surge rapidly, and at the same time, an effect similar to "bullet time" will be passively triggered!

Edge Paddling turned around sharply, raised his binoculars and looked at an unfinished window somewhere in the building complex.

Almost at the same time, a man holding a Gauss rifle put the gun away in shock and ducked away from the sniper position.

He clearly saw the confusion on the man's face. The other person obviously did not expect that he would be discovered.

Without stopping for a moment, Edge Pad immediately opened the communication module and contacted the rear command post.

"...This is the Death Corps. We found a suspicious target and requested a drone."

After a brief pause, a response came quickly from the other side of the communication channel.

"The command received it and the drone is coming online."

"receive!"

When he hung up the communication, he threw the telescope to the confused construction worker, then selected the map icon on the v screen, and then marked out a large area on the pop-up map.

"Attention all units of the Death Corps, block all exits of the marked area. The target may be carrying optical camouflage equipment, so remember to bring an infrared identification device."

The answer came quickly through the communication channel.

"receive!"

At the same time, the man who had just retreated from the sniper point had a shocked expression.

His name is Flynn, he is a disciple of the Enlightenment Society, and he is also the hidden thread of the Enlightenment Society buried in the city of Avente.

The senior leadership of the Southern Legion had been collaborating with the Enlightenment Society a long time ago, and this was precisely why Martin and his "death agent" were reused by Tire.

However, only a few senior officials of the Southern Army knew about the contact between the Southern Army and the Enlightenment Society. Even August, the Chief of General Staff, did not fully understand it, let alone the vast majority of officers.

Although the previous commotion in Yongye Port caused the name of the Enlightenment Society to appear in the public eye, the lack of evidence and clues caused it to become a farce of "high on drugs" and did not cause much waves.

In fact, almost half of the researchers in the "Tower of the World" building where Tyr's "Decisive Weapon" is stored were directly provided or assisted in training by the Enlightenment Society.

In addition to researchers, the senior leaders of the Enlightenment Society also sponsored many achievements of the Southern Army that could be directly put to use.

For example, the Enlightenment Society obtained the "Seed of Gaia" from the "Heaven".

Flynn was not a professional researcher, and he did not know the usefulness of the "Gaia Seed". He only knew that the top management of the organization was very interested in its actual combat data.

On the other hand, Tianren hopes that they can get a scientific research ship from the academy to facilitate direct material exchange with the space station at the Lagrange point.

According to the judgment of those guys, the academy that has some information about "Gaia-like life forms" and does not want the information to be leaked will definitely hide in a place unknown to the alliance to secretly observe and collect information.

Ever since, today's action took place.

Everything went as planned.

His partner "Luo Yi" successfully sneaked into the scientific research ship under his cover, and after killing all the researchers, hacked the scientific research ship's server and seized control of the scientific research ship.

After finishing everything, he originally planned to call it a day and retreat, but he didn't expect that because of his damn curiosity, he took one more look at the two guys wearing gas masks, and ended up being targeted by one of them.

He has never seen such a mysterious thing. Even if it is the special talent of the awakened person, it is too outrageous to search for the enemy from such a distance.

Maybe there are "singularities" in this world that they don't understand.

Looking at the fixed-wing drone hovering at low altitude, Flynn carefully hid himself in the shadows and looked warily towards the street not far away.

The entire city was like a pot of boiling water. Trucks and off-road vehicles were speeding through the streets. Judging from the boiling dust, it seemed that the movement was not small.

Whether it was for the scientific research ship or the dead allies, these people were serious about it.

Taking a deep breath of cold air, Flynn stretched out his hand and pressed it to the side of his helmet.

"I have something going on here... I am temporarily unable to go to the evacuation point. You go and wait outside the settlement first, and I will find a way to leave on my own."

After a pause, he added another sentence.

"Those Alliance soldiers are a little weird. I don't know if it's intuition or something else. Someone spotted my position at a glance... Anyway, be careful."

"Don't aim at them casually if you are not sure of hitting them."

The academy lost a research ship.

Chu Guang's first reaction after hearing this was that the old guy in the Wandering Swamp had exploded with gold coins again.

And it exploded at the right time.

The gravity well has been deployed, and the "seal" imposed on the planet will be lifted soon. The alliance just needs a vehicle that can move in outer space.

Although the scientific expedition team recovered a lot of technical data from the relics of the pre-war era, those things were obviously not as good as ready-made products.

However, after listening to the description of Li Ke, a Grade B researcher in the Special Project Group of the Foreign Affairs Department of the college, Chu Guang quickly realized that the water behind it might be deeper than he thought.

A report that appeared on his desk a long time ago was picked up by him from the corner of the filing cabinet.

That was during the Torch War.

According to the Guards Corps' investigation of Vault 20 and the intelligence revealed by the academy, the Alliance learned for the first time that there was a group of descendants of the People's Alliance Expeditionary Force in the Prosperity Era starport at Lagrange Point.

These people have received the inheritance of the Torch Church for some reason, and are suspected of sponsoring some of the actions of the Enlightenment Society.

The academy calls them "celestial beings."

Since there had been no direct contact, Chu Guang had forgotten this matter for a while, but the academy's abandonment of the research ship made him suddenly think of it again.

Who on earth is so desperate to travel to and from the sky and the surface?

It’s not the Eastern Empire.

"I have informed the frontline combatants about the relevant matters and they said they are investigating."

Seeing Chu Guang return to the reception room, Li Ke, who was sitting on the sofa, immediately straightened up and looked at him eagerly and asked.

"Any clues?"

Chu Guang sat down opposite him, motioned him to calm down with his eyes, and then said.

"When our people arrived, the battle was over. According to the locals, they saw the scientific research ship rushing directly into the sky and flying away. The materials used in your scientific research ship were so special that there was no signal on our radar at all. Not left."

Looking at Li Ke with disappointed eyes, Chu Guang thought about it and continued after a while.

"But thankfully, those people still left a little tail on the ground. Our people have sealed off the city area where he may be hiding. If we can catch that guy, maybe we can find out something."

The main population of Yavent City is the Wilant people. If that guy is a foreign race, it shouldn't be difficult to filter out.

Of course, this kind of thing cannot be said.

We are all descendants of the People's Federation. Who doesn't have two trump cards that others don't know?

Including himself.

After hearing what Chu Guang said, Li Ke sighed and said.

"I'm causing trouble for you."

"You have indeed caused us a lot of trouble," Chu Guang looked at the embarrassed Li Ke without any courtesy at all, and continued straight to the point, "We are already looking for people, and now I want to know who your people are. What on earth were you doing there?"

Hearing this request, Li Ke had a troubled expression on his face and hesitantly looked away.

"us……"

Chu Guang raised his hand to indicate that he did not need to make such an expression.

"I know that you have your difficulties, but I also hope that you will understand one thing... It is precisely because you did not inform us in advance of your actions in Yavent City that things like this happened now."

"Furthermore, we assume that the other party has cracked the data stored in the scientific research ship when it gets it. Your confidentiality has no meaning other than increasing the obstacles and difficulty of the investigation for your allies - us. You understand what I mean. ?"

Li Ke wiped the sweat from his forehead, nodded with a wry smile and said.

"I...understand, but the confidentiality level of the projects involved is too high. I can't decide to disclose it to you without authorization. I have to ask my superiors for instructions..."

Chu Guang nodded.

"As long as you understand, I believe you can convey my meaning to your superiors correctly."

With that said, he stood up from the sofa not long after he sat down.

"Don't waste time here, go and communicate with your superiors quickly."

"Or, let him come to me directly!"
