"Arctic project?" Su Ji opened her mouth in surprise, "Do you want to go?"
"Yeah." Gu Li nodded.
"Why?" Su Ji asked.
"I don't know, maybe I just want to see what the outside world is like."
Gu Li held up her cheeks, flattened her mouth and said, "I stayed in a small county for more than ten years and returned home right after I graduated from college."
"Growing up, the circle I lived in was only a small place. I would bump into a dozen acquaintances even if I took out the trash when I went out..."
"After a long time, I will always feel that this kind of life is very boring."
Su Ji nodded in agreement: "Indeed."
Su Ji had deep sympathy with what Gu Li said.
Because Muhai City is also a very small 18th-tier city.
Ever since she was little, Su Ji has always had the same kind of people coming and going around her.
Your elementary school classmate is his junior high school classmate, his junior high school classmate is your high school classmate, his high school classmate is your elementary school classmate, but his elementary school classmate is your ex-girlfriend... Oh, I don’t seem to have talked about it.
Are you in love? That's okay.
Although occasionally the idea of going out for a walk would come up in my mind, but in the end these ideas were shelved because I was too lazy.
After all, many times, just going to class has exhausted all my energy, let alone doing other things about poetry and distant dreams.
"so!"
Gu Li said, "At this age, you should do something particularly cool!"
"Otherwise, when you get older, you will want to recall your youthful and frivolous past, but you will find that you have no material. How uncomfortable would that be?"
"Yes, that's right." Su Ji agreed very flatteringly, "You have to accumulate some capital that you can use to brag with your grandson!"
The conversation started unknowingly between the two of them, and they had a lot of fun talking along the way.
Gu Li's personality made Su Ji feel very comfortable getting along with her.
Because this girl probably has some chatty attributes, this makes Su Ji, a straight man who fears society, no need to rack his brains to find new chat topics.
While chatting, in the middle of the conversation, Su Ji and Gu Li both heard a notification tone from the Tianxuan system on their cell phones.
The conversation stopped abruptly at the same time. The two of them lowered their heads at the same time and opened the system to check the messages.
Weaver Girl's voice like a silver bell came from the mobile phone:
"Hello, distinguished junior investigator Mr. Lonely Sardine."
"It has been detected that the area you are in is: Muhai City, Lingyou District, southern Dongxia Kingdom."
"The latest intelligence shows that the Sky Eye Bureau detected higher-level psychic energy fluctuations through satellites in the city's jurisdiction today."
"Therefore, from now on, Muhai City is officially listed as a high-risk area and has entered a red alert state."
"Since receiving the notice, and before the red alert state ends, investigators are requested to be on standby in the Muhai area 24 hours a day to keep information flowing..."
"..."
After Weaver Girl's voice broadcast ended, the two of them raised their heads and looked at each other.
Of course, there is no need to explain what this means.
As members of the Tianxuan Society, both of them knew the meaning of the red alert state.
The red status is almost the highest level of security, and can only be issued with the authorization of the Sky Eye Bureau.
As the largest and highest-level intelligence agency within the Tianxuan Society, the information released by the Sky Eye Bureau is the most authoritative.
Before any new information leaks out, almost all official players will act based on the latest information from the Sky Eye Bureau.
In other words, once a red alert is issued, it means that something major is definitely going to happen.
"Has this kind of incident happened in Muhai City before, Zhinu?" Gu Li said.
The artificial intelligence girl quickly replied in a brisk voice:
"According to my database search results, there have only been three red alerts in Muhai City in the past fifty years."
"The last time a red alert occurred was twenty-seven years ago. Specific incident details require higher-level permissions. Do you need me to apply for access for you?"
"It's not necessary for now, thank you for your hard work." Gu Li said.
"Okay, it's an honor to serve you." Weaver Girl's voice disappeared.
"Twenty-seven years ago?" Su Ji was very surprised, "Is it so long ago?"
"It's normal. Things like red alert are very rare. In addition, Muhai City is a relatively safe city. It is recognized by the forum as a good place for fishing."
Gu Li said, "If nothing else happens, the forum will definitely explode this time."
"The first red alert in twenty-seven years, even Muhai City will definitely be noticed by official players."
"Indeed..." Su Ji nodded, "The sense of immersion is indeed a little stronger. I'm starting to get nervous now."
"Anyway, let's go home and wait for help." Gu Li said.
After the two reached a consensus, they quickened their pace, separated at the intersection, and returned to their homes.
After all, in such a situation, most people's first reaction would be to want to stay with their families.
Su Ji didn't know if it was his imagination. He seemed to vaguely feel that many pedestrians on the street seemed to be speeding up their steps.
He vaguely felt that this was probably related to the Spirit-Eating Grass incident that happened before.
Coupled with what I heard from the Muhai branch about the Muhai Bay ruins, and the recent Arctic project...
The world does seem to be becoming more and more unstable.
It is as if time has gradually reached a turning point in history, and it is eagerly gearing up, thinking about how to take this most critical step in a chic manner...
Before that, how we need to face the next test is an issue that humans need to consider.
Not long after I got home, I logged into the Oath Forum and took a look. Sure enough, news about Muhai City had been trending on the hot search.
After a cursory glance, Su Ji found that it was not just Muhai City, but players in surrounding areas had also received notices from the Sky Eye Bureau.
They were asked to rush to Muhai city as quickly as possible to be on standby.
The status of official players will give them priority booking and check-in opportunities at any hotel in Muhai.
In less than an hour, the forum was flooded with posts about news about Muhai City.
And in this, Su Ji seemed to have discovered a completely different phenomenon...
