This Game is Too Real

Chapter 601: The Skeleton Corps has arrived!

  Chapter 601 The Skeleton Corps Arrives!

  Before entering Jinchuan Province, although Chu Guang thought that the problem might be more serious than he imagined, he did not expect it to have deteriorated to such an extent.

  The entire Haiya province has entered the fourth stage of Naguo corruption, completely reduced to a plague-shrouded country.

  The tragedy that happened at Pine Cone Farm, where it was just a number 03, as long as the forerunners in the sanctuary and the holy son had that idea, they could change any settlement in the parish into what they expected at any time.

   In fact, the people there have become puppets who have lost their consciousness.

   "If it's what they say, it's going to be a pretty tricky question... both in a scientific and political sense."

  In the hologram.

  After listening to Chu Guang's retelling of the academy's research conclusions, He Ya held her chin solemnly, lost in thought, and didn't speak again for a long time.

  Chu Guang is the same.

   After a long time, he sighed with a headache and said.

   "Blocking Haiya Province is a compromise solution, but maybe the problem will be worse if it continues... And it's a pity that we don't have that many people, and we don't have enough people to mobilize the entire alliance."

   Heya asked in a low voice.

   "What about businesses? Aren't they going to do something?"

"On things that don't pay off, their efficiency is directly proportional to the cost they need to spend. Only when the problem is so serious that they have to do something, they will really make up their minds." The heirs are those on the East Coast.

   To be honest, it is very pleasant to do business with the guys in the enterprise. As long as the return is rich enough, as long as the core interests are not involved, they don't mind letting their partners take advantage of it. After all, favors are also an investment.

   Yet it would be naive to count on them in the event of a major crisis.

The Legion tore up the contract made a century and a half ago, and almost pierced the Luoxia Province. The Supreme Council also uttered a cruel sentence, and it was not until the Alliance captured the Heart of Steel that this cruel sentence disappeared. to the Heart of Iron.

  Chu Guang has won the support of the council through Yi Chuan, and a batch of valuable aid is on the way.

  However, Chu Guang himself felt that this request was simply a fantasy to expect the company to help blockade a province thousands of kilometers away from Ideal City.

   "...can only use nuclear bombs?" Heya said with a complicated expression.

   "At present, I don't think of a better way, but... we must at least solve the immediate problem first, at least Jinhe City and Jinchuan Province can still be saved."

   As he said that, Chu Guang looked at the porthole on the side of the captain's cabin, and the gray and foggy land loomed behind the floating clouds.

  Currently, the entire Jinchuan Province is corrupted by Naguo only this piece of land, after all, there used to be the ruins of Singularity City here, and there are quite a few survivors and settlements.

  There are many no-man's lands in the wasteland. There may not be a single settlement for dozens of miles, and occasionally there are a few families, all living like savages.

  In that kind of no-man's land, relying on the natural spread of animals alone, it is difficult for Naguo's erosion to rise to the second stage all at once.

   It can be said that the plague named "Nago" designed by the Church of the Torch is simply tailor-made for the settlements of most survivors in the wasteland.

   Noticing Heya's complex eyes, Chu Guang suddenly thought of something, so he said in a comforting tone.

   "Don't have too much psychological burden. Maybe your master Karen was just bewitched or coerced by those people... It may not be her who made it."

  Although after meeting that Luo Gan, he felt that this possibility was very small.

  Those people are convinced of what they are doing, even if they hesitate, it is only due to conscience’s hesitation of the means, not the final result.

  They really believed—

  That world is a utopia greater than the Age of Prosperity.

   "Don't comfort me, I will ask her personally about this matter..." He Ya took a deep breath and adjusted her emotions.

  At this time, she seemed to think of something suddenly, looked at Chu Guang raised her eyebrows, and threw the topic back in a teasing tone.

   "Speaking of which, your own headache hasn't been resolved yet, but it comforts me."

   Didn't care about her teasing, Chu Guang said with a smile.

   "You are our chief biologist. Without you, many tasks cannot be carried out."

   "Stop praising me, there are more experienced people than me." He Ya rolled her eyes, but her heart was as sweet as honey.

  Recognition for hard work is a pleasure for anyone, and she was no exception.

  Feeling that she was in a better mood, Chu Guang smiled and nodded.

"Knowledge and experience can be accumulated slowly, and you are irreplaceable for the league... The basic situation is what I just said, just call here, it's getting late, get some rest early. "

  Heya bent the corners of her mouth.

   "It's the same with you. You just got rid of the trouble in Boulder City, and then went to Jinchuan Province in a blink of an eye. Don't tire yourself out."

   Chu Guang laughed.

   "Don't worry, my body is still quite strong, it's not like you don't know it."

Do not know why.

  This guy who always likes to make fun of him as a human being, but his face blushed inexplicably, and disappeared from the holographic image with a bah...

  …

  A pure white virtual space, with warm white light emitting from the ceiling.

   Some flowers and plants have grown on the white floor, but those grass leaves are all white, swaying unreal in the room where there is no wind.

  The crystal clear outline is like a corpse flower blooming on a corpse...

  Standing in the center of the room, Jiang Xuezhou looked around, and soon saw the girl sitting in the corner with her knees hugged.

   There was no expression on her face, she just sat there quietly, staring at the floor in front of the toe of the shoe, as if thinking about something.

  Jiang Xuezhou hesitated for a while, and finally decided to greet her with ordinary opening remarks.

"How are you?"

  Yinyin raised her head to look at her, and nodded slowly.

   "Well, I'm fine... just a little confused."

   "Doubts?" Jiang Xuezhou put his hands on his knees, leaned down and said in a soft tone, "My name is Jiang Xuezhou, and I am a researcher at the academy... Can you tell me your doubts? Maybe I can help you answer them."

"It's not impossible," Yinyin rested her head on the invisible wall behind her, and stared at the strange sister in front of her, "The big brother called the manager told me that Grandpa Luo Gan put this strange The room was given to me, so that I, who should have died, survived, but..."

  There was a trace of confusion in those bright eyes, Yin Yin tilted her head slightly unconsciously, and said something completely out of line with her age.

   "What am I?"

   What is it?

  Jiang Xuezhou froze for a moment, then said subconsciously.

   "Of course you are..."

"It's Zhao Yinyin, I know my name," Yinyin interrupted her, sighed softly, her expression seemed to be a little distressed, "but I don't know, is it me now, or is it me that the old grandpa remembers?" me in the middle."

  Jiang Xuezhou stared straight at Yinyin who was sitting in the corner, with her mouth slightly open. It was hard to believe that this was something an eight-year-old girl could say.

   Seems to see the surprise on her face, Yin Yin smiled shyly, and drove the troubled expression away from her face.

   "Sorry for saying something strange, this is my personal trouble, please don't take it to heart."

  Jiang Xuezhou didn't know how to answer, so he nodded slightly.

   "We... will help you get out of here as soon as possible, please give us some time."

"Well, I believe you, it would be great if you could go out to play. Xiao Yang and I have made an appointment to play hide-and-seek together," Yinyin smiled, as if the previous troubles did not exist at all, and changed Topic, "You are looking for me for something, right? Can you tell Yin Yin what it is?"

  Jiang Xuezhou nodded with some shame.

   "Well, I do have something I want to ask you, which can save many lives...Of course, you can refuse if you don't want to, as long as you tell me the truth about what you know."

  She thought it would take some time for this little girl to open up to her, but to her surprise, Yinyin nodded generously and looked at her with a smile on her face.

   "No problem, as long as I know, I will tell you, just ask!"

   She doesn't want to repeat the mistake she made by not being honest.

  After dying once, she has realized it.

  Looking at the little girl in a daze, Jiang Xuezhou, who came back to his senses, blushed and hurriedly said "Thank you", and began to ask.

  In fact, before coming here, she had already obtained the relevant information and research of Naguo from her mentor.

  The inquiry this time is mainly about some basic conditions of Pine Cone Farm, including some behaviors of patients in the early stage of infection, changes in the overall atmosphere of the entire settlement, and so on.

  She tried to state the relevant questions in a way that children could understand, and Yinyin gave honest answers to each of them after listening.

  After asking the last question, Jiang Xuezhou pinched his chin and fell into deep thought. Yin Yin, who was watching her intently, suddenly spoke in a pleasant voice.

   "You are very similar to that sister."

  Jiang Xuezhou was slightly stunned, and stopped thinking.

   "That... sister?"

   "Yeah." Yinyin nodded her head lightly, and looked at her with bright eyes, "A sister asked these questions before... She seems to be the doctor of the alliance, the sister who often checks the lamb."

  Doctor?

  Although he felt a little strange, Jiang Xuezhou didn't take it seriously, nodded and said thank you, then waved goodbye to Yinyin.

  Infirmary on the Heart of Iron.

   Standing next to the fully enclosed freezer cabin, Xiao Yang looked worriedly at Jiang Xuezhou who took off the neural connection device, and asked in a low voice.

   "Yinyin...is she okay?"

  Placing the neural connection device on the table beside him, Jiang Xuezhou cast a soft gaze at the lamb and said.

   "She's a bit lonely, can I ask you to spend more time with her?"

   Lamb nodded sensiblely.

   "Well... I will stay with Yinyin all the time and tell her about the outside world until she wakes up."

  Looking at that well-behaved appearance, Jiang Xuezhou couldn't help raising the corners of her lips, and stretched out her right hand to fondle her little head.

   "So good."

   Looking at the eyelashes that were narrowed into crescent moons and the smile that seemed to be glowing, she felt that the tiredness and unhappiness of the day had been healed.

  Damn it!

  I really want to raise one!

  But she was just thinking about it, and didn't really intend to bring the little girl back to the Wandering Swamp.

  Although the college has extremely rich material conditions, it is only for the researchers of the college. For ordinary people who cannot produce "value other than production", it is another matter entirely.

  In the settlements managed by the Science and Technology Committee, although the general survivors will not starve to death, what they can guarantee is only basic nutrition for survival. Apart from killing a **** path in the only assessment, there is basically no hope of any change.

  She heard that there are a small number of settlements that implement jurisdiction beyond the rules of the Science and Technology Committee, mainly the family members of senior researchers live there, and the purpose is to ensure that good genes and thinking patterns can be passed on to the next generation.

   But she is only a D-level researcher, and she can't even send her own family there, let alone people who have no blood relationship at all.

  After visiting Yinyin, Jiang Xuezhou withdrew from the ward, and closed the door gently behind him.

   However, as soon as she came out of the door, she saw an annoying guy, her whole face collapsed, and she folded her arms and stared at him coldly.

   "I came here with permission from the administrator."

  Being forced back two steps by the murderous aura visible to the naked eye, Ye Shi scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and muttered.

"I know."

"Then what are you doing here?" Jiang Xuezhou raised his chin slightly, and said with cold eyes, "Do you have to say that, I'm not interested in thinking about the rags you made, stealing your technology is better than facing it. Paramecium dazed—”

"sorry."

   "..."

   Never thought that this guy would apologize, Jiang Xuezhou couldn't help but paused in the middle of his harsh words, and looked at him in a little astonishment.

  Ye Shi's eyes drifted to one side, he was too embarrassed to look at her face.

  Because it was really embarrassing.

  He also just learned from the mission system that this guy came here to help with her mentor.

   It was in Dawn City.

  Not only did I suspect that she was a spy, but I also asked why she came here now... Thinking about it carefully, what I said was really inappropriate, at least I shouldn't have said it to her.

  Before going offline, he received a blank stare from his sister, he hesitated, and finally crawled out of the dormant cabin, deciding to explain the matter clearly before exiting.

"I said some very outrageous things before, and I can't lie to people that it wasn't my intention, because I really thought that at the time, and thought that a hidden mission was triggered or something... But please allow me to take those words back, It was my fault for not investigating clearly and jumping to conclusions, which is why there was such a big misunderstanding."

   Having said that, he was a little unconvinced again, as if he had surrendered, so he couldn't help but add in a low voice.

"Of course, this is not entirely my problem. Just say no to what you are here for...Sneaky, let me show you around, and talk about secrets, missions, etc. I am not only I can think wrongly."

  Jiang Xuezhou stared at him for a while, and suddenly burst out laughing.

  Ye Shi raised his head dissatisfied.

   "Why are you laughing, I'm speaking the truth very seriously, okay?"

  He thought this guy would restrain himself, but he didn't expect her to laugh even louder.

   "Ahahaha! It's nothing. Since you are so frank, Ben Guliang can just pretend that those unhappiness never happened."

  Raising his right hand and pulling the ponytail behind his shoulders, Jiang Xuezhou suppressed his nostrils that were raised high and high, and instead raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

   "Actually, it's quite interesting. It's the first time I was sent to the bureau as a spy... Although I was scolded by the instructor after I went back."

   Actually, it didn't matter if she was scolded so much, it was just that she was a little bit sorry for causing trouble to too many irrelevant people. Later, all the city lords of Dawn City came.

   When you go back, send a thank you letter to everyone at the Dawn City Guard Station...

  Looking at the recovered Jiang Xuezhou, Ye Shi heaved a sigh of relief, and his usual silly smile appeared on his face.

   "Then... In short, the misunderstanding has been resolved. What tasks do you want—I mean, if you are troublesome or troublesome, you can find me, and I will go back first."

  Looking at Ye Shi who was about to turn around and leave, Jiang Xuezhou subconsciously called out to him.

"Wait a moment!"

  Ye Shi stopped in his tracks, turned his head and cast a puzzled look at her.

   "Anything else?"

"Um…"

  Jiang Xuezhou looked aside with some embarrassment, twirling the tip of the ponytail's hair with his fingertips, and said embarrassingly.

"You know...my mentor and I are here to solve the Nago problem, right? Because the investigation outside is mainly in charge of us D-levels, so there may be more occasions to attend. Although, although I am also very strong, If you're serious, it's not a problem to single out one or two hundred awakened ones, but it would be great if you can have someone to help you with tea and water and miscellaneous chores..."

   Seeing that the guy didn't express anything after listening for a long time, Jiang Xuezhou gritted his teeth in annoyance, and spoke out completely.

   "In short, in short... If you are not busy, please help me, can you?"

  嗐.

   It’s such a small matter!

  After listening to her whimpering for a long time, Ye Shi finally understood and smiled heartily.

   "Leave it to me! Although I can't help with serving tea and doing chores, it's still easy to protect you! Don't worry, as long as the master is still alive, you will never be hurt in the slightest."

   Unexpectedly, a straight ball was thrown suddenly, Xiao Jiang was taken aback for a moment, but soon came back to his senses, his whole face instantly turned red into an apple.

   "You, you, you, you, be mentally prepared, I will not show mercy when I, I, and I order others... Remember to write a suicide note!"

  Stuttering and throwing down a string of incoherent words, Jiang Xuezhou ran away like a frightened rabbit like a gust of wind.

   When she finally came back to her senses, she found that she was already standing in the bathroom of her room, and the spray from the shower was splashing on her face.

  Jiang Xuezhou regretted wanting to punch himself, but he still didn't have the heart to strike, and finally the fist hit the bathroom wall.

  Ahhh!

   What stupid things did I say!

  She wished she could find a crack in the wall and hide herself in it...

  Different from the remorseful Xiao Jiang, a certain person didn't care about that unlucky "ruthless words" at all, and didn't even take it seriously at all.

   Just kidding, who can be more poisonous than his mouth?

  He can spit out a whole lot of swear words that are worse than this, and even weave them into a poem. Even Fang Chang, who is the most eloquent, is no match for him, so he can only roll his eyes and shut up and play games.

   It's not that he's bragging.

   As a Zaun player, he has never lost a laning match with his mouth.

  What really puzzled Ye Shi was another thing...

  Watching the back of the NPC leaving, he took out the VM and glanced at it, clicked on the taskbar, and scratched the back of his head.

   "Strange."

  Why didn't the task trigger?

   Logically speaking, acting as a bodyguard for the academy's "specially appointed researcher" can be regarded as a hidden mission.

  Ye Shi couldn't help muttering in his heart.

  This dog's plan must have forgotten the master...

  The lamb hiding by the crack of the door quietly hid his head back, imitating the big brother's movement and scratching the back of his head.

  Just now she heard someone arguing in the corridor, she wanted to see what happened, and then saw a scene that made her confused.

  Although I can't understand what they are saying at all, I always feel very powerful...

  …

  The long night finally passed, and as the dawn rose from the horizon, the gray sky also lit up a touch of white.

  No matter how thick the fog on the ground is, it cannot stop the sun from rising as usual. Even if the warm sunlight will be blocked by temporary bad weather, it cannot stop the desire and yearning of all things for the sun.

  On the distant horizon, the silhouettes of armored combat vehicles emerged from the billowing dust.

  The murderous torrent of steel, carrying grenadiers with skulls on their breastplates, marched straight towards Jinhe City with high morale.

  Since the war in Luoxia Province ended, each regiment had a lot of time to rest or fish. So under the booing of all the troublemakers, each corps designed their own regiment emblems one after another, and printed them on the breastplate or shoulder armor of the exoskeleton as a painting.

  Skeleton Corps, the regiment emblem is naturally a skeleton.

   Of course, during this period of rest, the brothers of the Skeleton Corps did not do anything other than painting.

  The "Chimera" wheeled infantry combat vehicle deployed in this operation was jointly designed by the players of the Skeleton Corps and the engineers of Goblin Technology.

  This is the experience summed up in the previous war with the Legion - the armored forces of the alliance need a fast light vehicle that can carry light infantry to keep up with the rhythm of tanks and move forward.

  In the previous war with the Legion, the infantry of the Skeleton Corps usually sat on the armed truck, but the mobility of that thing was too poor, it was basically a dumpling with its stuffing exposed. In a real fight, veteran players would rather run behind the tank than sit on it and get beaten.

  So "Chimera" came into being.

   Its design refers to the "Hyena" reconnaissance vehicle of the Legion, and the six pairs of road wheels and the front layout of the power cabin imitate the real WZ551.

  In addition to a driver and a gunner, six light infantrymen wearing fully protective exoskeletons can also be accommodated in the rear box.

  The roof turret is equipped with a 37mm rapid-fire gun, ammunition and a type of aircraft cannon. At the same time, the turret is equipped with a "pigeon" missile launcher, which can pose a certain threat to heavy vehicles and large targets.

  However, although this armored vehicle has a built-in space, most of these old players are used to sitting on the truck and cannot stand the closed space.

  One and two didn’t have a seat, and they all sat on the top of the sports car.

not only that.

  Even though there are only a few kilometers away from the battlefield, there is no trace of fear on those faces, only the unbearable hunger and thirst—

   "I'm ready to kill twenty-two! Is there any opening?"

   "Haha, it doesn't count if the 'Chimera' killed it!"

   "Cut, do I need to rely on that thing?"

   "If you were captured alive by mutants, don't call Dad to save you."

   "Yes!"

   "Damn, do you have any backbone!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

  The shelling of the Iron Heart will start on time at eight o'clock in the morning.

  Whether it is the 37mm rapid-fire gun of the armored vehicle or the rifle carried on their shoulders, they are all loaded at this moment.

   Leaning out half of his body from the turret of the armored vehicle, Mole held a telescope in his hand, looking at the looming abandoned city in the mist.

   In front of you is Jinhe City!

   Throwing down the binoculars and taking out the horn, he opened his voice and shouted excitedly.

"brothers-!"

   "Ahead is the lair of the Qi tribe!!"

  "A group of cannibals are singing at a banquet, and they don't realize what they have messed with!"

   "Let those green-skinned beasts take a good look, whether their front teeth and bone residue are stronger, or our tracks and gun barrels are stronger!"

   Someone yelled inappropriately.

   "Boss! We came in armored vehicles! No tracks!"

   Ignoring the saboteur, the mole rat continued to shout loudly.

   "Skeleton Corps! Go forward—!"

   "Throw death in their faces—!"

  The hour hand of the watch is aligned at eight o'clock.

  The sound of the cannon above the head sounded as expected!

  Under the deafening gunfire, what responded to him was a full-fledged shout.

"kill!!"
