Chapter 163 Your family should be neat and tidy...
"have you slept?"
Su Ji heard Gu Liru whisper.
The sound came from outside the tent.
Su Ji identified the source of the sound and could tell it was coming from Gu Li's tent.
It turns out that the sound insulation effect of this tent is not very good...
The corners of Su Ji's mouth twitched slightly.
Fortunately, he was just on the phone with his parents.
If you can't hold back your restlessness for a while and open the study materials and start the study mode, you should not die on the spot.
"Ah, I didn't sleep..."
"What's wrong?"
"Did I bother you?"
Su Ji said.
"No, I just asked out of the blue." Gu Li said.
"Oh, that's it." Su Ji replied.
The strange topic was interrupted in such a strange way.
It is indeed a very unnutritious conversation...
Mainly because Gu Li's greeting was a bit sudden, and Su Ji didn't really know how to answer her.
"I envy you very much."
After the two were quiet for a while, Gu Li said again.
"Envy me? Why?"
Su Ji said doubtfully.
"Your family always seems to be neatly together." Gu Li said softly.
"..." Su Ji felt a little choked.
Although what you said does seem to be fine.
But when I first heard it, it always seemed a bit weird...
"The moonlight here is quite beautiful, and the stars are also very beautiful."
Gu Li murmured softly, "It looks very much like when I was a kid and walking in the park with my parents at night."
"The small counties at that time were small and poor."
"At that time, they began to educate me and asked me to study hard and get out of the small county."
"Strive to go to a big city and live a better life."
"Now I have indeed walked through all the big cities, but I have never seen such clean moonlight again."
Su Ji turned sideways slightly and looked at the night sky outside through the small window of the tent.
The moonlight in this place is indeed not particularly clear.
Because above the sky, there is still a layer of vague black mist floating around.
As they went deeper, a lot of this area had dispersed, but there was still a small remaining part lingering in the night sky.
Just like a turbid river, you can clearly see the outlines and tracks of swimming fish, but you can't see their beautiful scales and cheerful bubbles.
"Although I really don't want to admit it..."
"But now, I really feel a little homesick."
Su Ji seemed to hear a soft sigh coming from the tent next door.
"Why."
"Now that I think about it, the happiest time was actually when I was a kid, following my parents around..."
Gu Li's voice became softer and softer, and finally disappeared into the night.
Su Ji was about to respond when the prompt text in front of her scrolled out again.
[The long silent night gradually falls...]
[Those little cuties who like to be active late at night seem to be getting more and more excited at this time.]
【Listen carefully……】
[The sound of wind, water, grass and trees, the chirping of insects and birds, the snoring of a girl...]
【Composed into a grand nocturne.】
…
What the hell, did you actually fall asleep like this...
Su Ji's head was covered with black lines.
Originally, he was still struggling with how to answer the call, but it seems that he no longer has this problem.
Needless to say, this girl's sleep quality is really not that good. She sleeps when she says she wants, without any ambiguity.
Drowsiness gradually came over me.
With the cool night breeze, Su Ji fell into a deep sleep with her pillow on the night at the edge of the city.
…
Unconsciously, time passed slowly.
The time gradually came to late night.
It's half past three in the morning.
Two players from the fifth group's camp climbed out of their tents.
The other two players walked back from outside the restricted area towards the garrison.
The two buddies were yawning and looked like they might fall asleep like dead pigs at any moment.
Tonight, every two players will take turns to be on vigil, and each player will be on duty for one hour.
And now, it happens to be time for the two groups of people to change shifts.
"Brothers, hold on, I'll leave the rest to you."
The two people after get off work said, "It seems a bit cold tonight."
"Would you like to go back and add more clothes first?"
"Huh? Isn't this cold?" said a friend at work with a smile, "This little bit of wind is not enough to cool the air conditioner that I have used for eight years."
"exactly."
His companion also smiled and said, "If you can't do it, just do a few sets of push-ups on the spot. Your body will warm up immediately."
"We Tianxuan investigators are not afraid of hardship or fatigue!"
"That's really hard work!" the other party said in a friendly manner.
Soon, the shift ended.
The two new investigators stood on a high ground not far from the station.
Two people stood with their backs to each other, looking in two different opposite directions at the same time.
Staring straight ahead, motionless.
Sometimes when we get tired of seeing a certain place, we change directions and continue.
This is the daily routine of working night shift.
It doesn't seem to have much technical content, it's boring and boring.
Just like that, ten minutes passed.
Maybe it was because the process during work was too boring, or maybe it was just to cheer myself up and not get sleepy.
One of the old guys couldn't help but talk to his companion who had just been together for a while.
"Hello."
"Is this your first time on a real-world mission?"
he asked.
"no."
The companion shook his head and said:
"At the beginning of the year, I received a mission from Weaver Girl, saying that there was an orc player."
"I was nervous and excited that time because it was my first time to deal with players of a different race."
"Only when I got there did I realize that those bullshit beast players were just two mutated rats that looked bigger."
"What do you think we did with it in the end?"
"What's the matter?" he answered in a flattering tone.
"Caught with a lighted mousetrap! Hahahaha!"
"Hahahahaha!"
As if a common point of laughter between men was suddenly discovered, the two of them laughed out loud at almost the same moment.
The hearty laughter of the two seemed particularly clear in the quiet night.
But in the next moment.
The smiles of the two people ended abruptly at the same moment.
——The [Reconnaissance Guards] in their hands all glowed in unison at this time.
Bright red!
Logically speaking, there is a process between [Detection Guard] detecting foreign players and thoroughly confirming their existence.
Although this process is neither long nor short, and even many players are not aware of it, it is
It still exists.
Before its light changes to bright red, it will first appear yellow, then transition to orange-red, and finally red.
But now the light of [Detection Guard] is almost completely showing a leaping change.
This suddenly caught both of them off guard.
"who is it……"
The two of them subconsciously turned around quickly and stood back to back.
However, there was no abnormality in the sights of both parties.
"wrong……"
The two of them suddenly realized something was happening.
——The strange thick black fog surrounding it is constantly approaching, and is gradually surrounding the place where the camp is located!
And the next moment.
The two heard the sharp hissing sound from the beast.
"!?"
this moment.
Only then did everyone realize where the anomaly discovered by the [Reconnaissance Guard] came from.
——Above their heads.
The visitor was nothing else, it was a group of bats flying through the thick black mist at high speed and flying towards them.
But these flying creatures seem to be very different from ordinary bats.
Because the two of them noticed that their eyes were basically the same as the group of dead soldiers they encountered on the road during the day, both glowing with a scary red light.
"save……"
The two of them were so frightened at the same time that their lips and teeth opened wide, and they subconsciously wanted to scream for help.
But they were still a step too late.
Because the swarms of bats were so dense that they were swamped before they could fully react.
The sharp claws and sharp teeth cut off their throats and tracheas in an instant, scratched their skin, and split their muscles.
It felt as if in an instant, the whole person fell into a storm composed of sharp blades.
Blood splattered everywhere.
…
Block the edge of the penalty area.
The station of the fifth group.
At this moment.
Logically speaking, it should be a quiet and peaceful camp.
Suddenly, a cool and cold wind blew.
The night wind passing through at high speed was like a ghost, instantly rustling and swaying the vegetation in the forest.
Su Ji, who was still in a sweet dream, felt a chill at this moment.
A trace of cold breath slid along the surface of his cheek, sliding close to the skin like a blade.
The two eyelids suddenly opened, and Su Ji suddenly woke up from her dream.
If this were normal, it would be absolutely impossible.
Because Brother Ji has always been a heartless guy.
No matter how big things happened to him the night before, he would go to bed and fall asleep immediately. He would sleep until dawn and never leave fatigue and stress until the next day.
Therefore, Brother Ji’s sleep quality has always been top-notch.
When he fell into a deep sleep, he would not wake up unless someone was shaking him crazily beside him, or he had some indescribable dream.
But this time, the reason why Brother Ji woke up was...
He is hungry.
That's right.
In the middle of the night, he was actually woken up by hunger.
Gulu gulu...
Inside the tent, an extremely clear stomach growl could be heard.
It's just that this feeling of hunger is actually completely different from the feeling of hunger you feel involuntarily when you stay up late to catch up on movies.
——[Killing Intention Perception]!
Su Ji's face darkened.
The dangerous aura has hit his face.
He subconsciously touched the [Alert Guard] beside him.
Pull it up and take a look.
It's still the normal green color.
The color represents safety, freedom, and forgiveness.
But Su Ji knew that the situation was definitely not that simple.
And the next moment.
Brand new words were quickly refreshed in front of Su Ji.
…
[In the darkness of the night where no one is watching...]
[Those dark shadows, surging rapidly like undercurrents, have already pounced on the sleeping humans...]
…
"Sure enough, something happened!"
The moment she saw the prompt text, Su Ji immediately realized that something was wrong.
As expected, these aliens chose to launch a surprise attack this night.
Maybe they are also alien species from the restricted area?
Want to take advantage of this opportunity tonight to tear through their defense line and rush into the city area?
But damn, this hot chick’s vigilance guard looks like he has no reaction at all...
But in fact, Su Ji has never dared to completely believe in extraordinary props.
Especially some props that are not too high level.
For example, [Scouting Guard] and [Alert Guard].
Even though these two gadgets are officially recognized as the most commonly used props.
After all, these two extraordinary props are things that humans think are produced.
Since it is artificially produced, there will definitely be a defective product.
Even if it is not a defective product, there must be some higher-level extraordinary objects and creatures that can counter their reconnaissance.
Just like some modern stealth aircraft, it is the same reason that they can avoid radar scanning through some special coatings on the fuselage.
This can also explain why the Deadpools hidden in the fog were able to avoid detection by the [Reconnaissance Guards] this morning.
Once the [Alert Guard] turns red, it will emit a huge light and sound as a signal to alert.
Tonight, there is absolutely no way he is the only person who has placed a [warning guard] in the camp.
This means.
Within the entire camp, no one's [Alert Guard] had their alarm triggered.
"This is not right..."
Sensing the strange Su Ji, he immediately took out an Uzi and used his other hand to gently open the tent door and poke out half of his face.
Good guy!
When Su Ji saw the scene outside, her expression suddenly changed.
Through the dense forest branches and leaves, Su Ji could see a large number of bat creatures already hovering in the sky.
In his sight, he could see a large number of "lv1 deadpools" densely packed in the sky.
This large group of bats are all the lowest level [Undead] players.
It's so low-level that it doesn't even have a name...
Su Ji felt that they couldn't even be called [players], at most they were just a [unit].
But this is also a good thing.
Since this group of [Deadpools] are all players, as long as they are killed, they can gain experience points and bounty bonuses.
As for drops and other extra rewards... Su Ji doesn't have any expectations.
