Your Cheat Balance is Insufficient

It turns out that even for the city defense, time off is an extra luxury.

When Tang Xiao was finally able to leave the conference room, it was already one o'clock in the morning. The special "sky" of the base was covered with a layer of darkness, and the road was empty. The whole base was like a sultry and silent giant box can.

Someone from behind called Tang Xiao, it turned out that Colonel Feng chased after him, and he looked apologetic, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect this discussion to take so long, so that you, a girl, have been lost all day. eat."

He was holding a bag of sandwiches and a bag of bread in his hand, and the gesture of handing it over seemed a little rusty, "The base has a curfew after ten o'clock, and you can't buy food when you go back now, this is ours ...you just forgot to get your work meal."

Tang Xiao did not take the bread, but suddenly asked: "The task of capturing zombies and mutants outside the base as experimental samples for the research institute was discussed at the meeting just now..."

Colonel Feng misunderstood the meaning, smiled and comforted: "Miss Tang, don't worry, we will never do anything to force you. Besides, whether it is catching mutants or assisting in virus research, Ben Du It's the work of the military. It's just that you and your friends escorted you and your friends all the way back to the research materials we hoped this time, so we hope to absorb your skills and experience to a certain extent..."

His voice became lighter, and then a little deep, "Actually, this decision was made the day you first arrived outside the base, but we didn't expect that your friends are not doing well. "

On this point, Tang Xiao has to admit that it makes sense.

A group of five people, one was infected by the virus whose life and death were unknown, one was directly hospitalized with terminal brain cancer, a six- or seven-year-old girl was in a coma, and a single mother followed closely.

As soon as she entered the base, five of them lay down, and she was the only "weak woman" with "limited ability".

But even so, Tang Xiao was also drawn to participate in this ad hoc meeting-a discussion about the cooperation and battle of virus antidote research.

It turned out that the research materials brought by the main storyline not only quickly advanced the research process of the capital base on virus antidote, but also brought a serious problem: the experimental sample is seriously insufficient.

What the institute needs now is not only ordinary infected people, but also more deeply infected mutant infected, and even... giant mutant!

The capital is not short of zombies, but the base is short of people, especially those who can go to the battlefield.

At today's meeting, not only Tang Xiao, but also several other survivors who came to the base recently, what they all have in common is that they have all traveled long distances in a city of ruins and zombies. People with higher self-protection ability and physical quality are obviously also listed as the category of recruitment.

Maybe it's because the previous players such as Zhang Xiangyuan have more or less entered the power organs and important positions. There are no players in this batch of "new survivors". Tang Xiao looked at them briefly and saw that most of them had no intention of participating.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Living in the base, although you can't control your future, you are also under the protection of steel armor and hot weapons, and you are no more worried about the precarious situation in the short term.

Leave the base, go to the dangerous ruins of the city and the endless wasteland countryside, face countless infected and mutants, and death will come at any time.

Who wants to die?

Colonel Feng obviously thought that Tang Xiao was the same. He looked at the girl who was obviously weak and weak, but her brows were firm and pretending to be strong, and he couldn't help but comforted:

"You can go home and we won't ask you to participate..."

"I want to go."

Two voices sounded at the same time, Colonel Feng had no time to speak, so he had to swallow halfway, his slightly stagnant expression revealed a little mistake: "Do you want to go?"

Tang Xiao nodded, "What I'm good at is fighting zombies, it's useless to stay at the base. Since there are always people who want to participate, why should I not go?"

"You're the best at...killing zombies?"

The man blinked slowly, and after realizing his gaffe, he quickly coughed, "I'm sorry, I didn't question your intentions. It's just that this is a big matter, and it's about life and safety. We recruit volunteers. Due to the time, we also hope that every citizen who signs up will consider it carefully.”

Tang Xiao smiled, "Without a country, how can there be citizens?"

“…”

"You're right."

Colonel Feng nodded, his always serious and handsome face was unusually cramped, "Thank you for understanding us. Uh...I'm narrow-minded. I thought you were a spoiled girl...I'm sorry. "

He was not good at speaking at first, but he was more and more dark when he was not careful, so he could only pursed his lips silently, pretending that he had never spoken.

Tang Xiao did not notice the strange atmosphere at all, and even frowned, quite happy, "I look like a spoiled child?"

Is there a better blessing for a poor person?

She patted the man on the shoulder and admired sincerely, "You are very discerning."

Colonel Feng: “…”

"With this card, you can enter the training ground for free. There are many people in the base who are good at fighting. You can ask them for advice."

"Then... see you later at the celebration tomorrow."

***

The Volunteer Army Program is very dangerous for ordinary people, and it is understandable that survivors are reluctant to participate. But for players who have already entered the base, this is obviously an important plot to go to when they die.

Furthermore, Tang Xiao suspected that there might be a second plot trigger hidden in this action.

"Plot trigger?"

Zhang Xiangyuan blinked slowly, trying to digest this information. But the amount of information received in a short period of time has caused his head to turn a little bit, so he can only repeat it according to Tang Xiao's thoughts. But after all, he was the richest man who had rushed to the top of the entire server, and he quickly realized the importance of the problem.

The trigger point of the plot...is the existence that can affect the progress of the entire game world! It may also be an important clue for the player to leave the game world!

When it was first thrown into this world, the game announced that the player needed to [find the lost lover and leave the world before civilization was destroyed], but did not say how the player would leave.

Is it automatically teleported at the moment when civilization is completely destroyed, or do I need to find methods and opportunities by myself?

Thinking about this, Zhang Xiangyuan is even more convinced that Tang Xiao has experienced a lot during the separation, maybe even beyond his cognitive scope, so he has more and more comprehensive information.

Hey, the boss is indeed a boss.

Tang Xiao saw the pale middle-aged man in front of him, and inexplicably changed from worry to trust and worship, with a low IQ.

…Forget it, let’s wait for the southern troops to arrive.

The two left the corner and reintegrated into the bustling crowd. Zhang Xiangyuan was a little worried, after all, he knew that the important combat power of the opponent's camp was hidden by Tang Xiao.

The enemy has already occupied the discourse power and general trend of the base. If he uses his power to suppress people, he has only one person, and I am afraid that he will not be able to protect Tang Xiao.

The game is so unfair!

Tang Xiao directly dismissed his thoughts, "Who said that if they are not from the same camp, they must be the enemy?"

"Furthermore," she laughed, "no matter how unfair the dog game is, it is impossible to deliberately make half of the players disadvantaged and give it to the other half to be slaughtered, and raising a gu is not like that."

So the other half of the players must also be subject to some extremely strict restrictions. Just like the system mall has not been open since entering the base, it all revealed a signal - the game does not want them to use the props and equipment purchased in the mall to kill other players.

But if you don't want players to kill each other, why make a point system and camp differentiation?

Tang Xiao sneered and walked towards the center of the square first.

At the same time, in the other camp, Zheng Wu was so anxious.

He used all the power he could mobilize, and checked all the places that Tang Xiao had set foot in since he entered the base. Except for the research institute and the army, he was only three feet away from digging the ground, but still Aya was not found.

Where can Tang Xiao hide her in just one day? Could it be handed over to the research institute?

It was obvious to the naked eye that things were going in the worst direction. Zheng Wu only felt that his back could not stop sweating, and he almost wanted to take someone directly to arrest Tang Xiao.

What's more, all the idle players combined may not be able to beat that pervert...

The festival is about to start, he can only use the pager to notify Bai Qi of the news, maybe this brilliant brain will have a solution.

However, the voice over the phone was polite and cold, "We already know about this, you don't have to waste your time."

Zheng Wuyi: I know, what do you know?

He had a bad premonition in his heart, and said tremblingly: "Everyone has done their best, but that **** doesn't know what method to use, a good living person just disappears like this..."

Bai Qi frowned indistinctly as she listened to the nonsense coming from the microphone, and the next second she heard the clear and narrow voice of the girl in front of her, "So he was the one who had been looking for me. Hey, may I have a chat with this friend?"

The performance of the caller's anti-leakage sound is not good. Zheng Wu also heard the sound. He opened his mouth, but he could not pronounce continuous syllables. Filled with dye, it becomes very ugly.

"You—you are—"

Tang Xiao took over the paging machine, his brisk voice was like the devil's Twilight Bell in the eyes of the other party: "Long time no see, I saw you running so fast yesterday, I thought you didn't want to see that little boy again. Where's the girl?"

"But since you want to find someone, just ask me directly? Why waste time, right?"
