Chapter 872 The unicorn that cannot be looked at directly
No matter how thick the insect swarm's encirclement is, it is less than a hundred meters thick. This [Explosion Magic] is equivalent to forcibly blasting a wide passage directly to the outside world on the encirclement.
"Break through at full speed! Follow closely and don't fall behind!"
The bearded man "I'm still going to fight tigers tonight" rushed to the front. The seemingly bulky [NBC Power Armor] spurted out four blue flames from behind, and it was actually flying close to the ground at an extremely fast speed. There were occasional shots along the way.
The still-still-dead Martian cockroaches tried to pounce on him to intercept him, but were knocked away by the alloy tactical shield he had erected in front of him.
Other third-level players also hurriedly summoned their own vehicles or mounts to speed up their escape.
The old man in the animal skin directly rode on the [Mandrill], and the "Emerald Cactus" simply relied on its two thick and muscular thighs to fly, and its speed was not weaker than those of the army of strange riding beasts.
"Succulent" jumped out of the steam self-propelled boiler [Guangwu Type 2], and very skillfully rode on [Ingenious Doll·Erha]. This dog has been modified by the wind magic circuit and can be used as a mount.
It just feels a bit rough to ride.
"Holy Glory" also rides a pure white unicorn. When she runs, her flowing mane and tail will drag out two beautiful rainbow lights, paired with her flowing golden hair and blinding gold.
The armor is absolutely the most popular thing on the battlefield.
It's also side riding.
How could the enemy not know? Anyway, this posture is absolutely full of ridicule to our own people.
Sure enough, I still can't stand this pretty boy, whether he's from Ouzhou or Ouzhou... Do you want to find an opportunity to throw this guy into the world of "Brother Killer" or "BLACK Beast"?
"Hey, Ye, where's your mount? If you don't have it, come up and ride with me."
"Holy Glory" had no idea that Luo Jie was maliciously thinking about how to turn him into some disharmonious female (male) protagonist. Seeing that Luo Jie had not summoned any mounts or vehicles for a long time, he still
Thinking that it had been destroyed in the previous fantasy mission, he immediately turned around and extended a helping hand to him.
"Oh, I have a vehicle. I just suddenly thought of something interesting and got distracted." Luo Jie raised his head and grinned at the "Holy Glory" with a row of neat white teeth. "Besides, I can't sit on this thing like you.
"
[White Unicorn] This kind of mount has good attributes in all aspects, but the difficulty is that only pure girls can capture and ride it.
Huh?
Looking at the "sacred radiance" covered in insect blood and as heroic as a Valkyrie on the battlefield, Luo Jie suddenly felt that he had discovered an incredible fan.
Seeing Luo Jie take out the familiar door-panel giant sword [Ingenious Doll·Lucifer·One Style] from the storage space, "Holy Glory" was relieved, pulled the reins and said: "Actually, [White Unicorn]
】It’s not that we can’t ride together, as long as you sit on my shoulders..."
"Forget it, that picture is too obscene." Luo Jie inexplicably recalled the motorcycle performance of Brother Tianzhu during the military parade.
"That's so insignificant." "Holy Glory" seemed disapproving, urging the [White Unicorn] to keep up with the [Smart Doll·Lucifer·One Style] flying on the ground, throwing out several Holy Light Hammers from time to time.
He turned to the flying cockroach that swooped down from the sky and said, "Do you still remember the "Yanzu An" we saw in the world of "Ghoul"?"
Luo Jie nodded, "Philosophical Wrestler"? There are probably not many hidden professions in this fantasy world with such harsh requirements for job transfer.
"I met him during the last fantasy mission. He ran past me on a horse. I was surprised and asked him, how come you are riding on the horse's head? Guess what he answered me clearly?
It’s a unicorn!”
"..."
Luo Jie suddenly found that he could no longer look directly at the beautiful spiral horn of the unicorn.
The keyboard warrior "Mumu" rode a women's little sheep electric car, bumping on the bumpy battlefield so hard that he almost vomited out his heart. Luo Jie controlled the black door panel sword and drew a circle on the battlefield.
, six flying-wing knives cleared away the flying cockroaches within the range, and smoothly lifted the middle-aged fat man up by his collar.
"Oh, thank you Captain Dire."
"Mumu" put the electric car back into the storage space, panting heavily with lingering fear, while looking at the high-speed flying vehicle under him with envy.
Vehicles or mounts with the ability to fly are extremely difficult to obtain in the fantasy world. Even low-level aircraft like [rocket packs] that set off fireworks are not easily accessible to all players.
Compared with Luo Jie who could chat easily all the way, the second-level players were using up all their energy to feed themselves at this moment.
Horses and motorcycles of various colors formed the main force of the escape brigade at the rear, and strange vehicles such as hand-held tractors were also mixed in, dragging a plume of black smoke like goblins and dancing around the brigade's buttocks.
.
Even so, not all players can get into a vehicle or mount. There are at least five or six players who are left far behind. They release their skills randomly to the surroundings with despair on their faces, and are immediately overwhelmed by the overwhelming waves.
Swallowed by the insect tide, not even a single wave was stirred up.
…
Martian cockroaches are not a race known for their endurance. They cannot run or fly for a long time and will quickly disappear from the player's rear sight.
Some players in the team released multiple detectors and reconnaissance creatures to confirm that the Martian cockroaches had shrunk and were no longer chasing after them. Then they let out a sigh of relief, sat down on their respective mounts and vehicles, and gulped the food into their mouths.
Catch water.
A splendid falcon flapped its wings and landed on the arm of the old man in animal skin. The old man withdrew from the state of visual synchronization, his eyes regained clarity, and reported to the bearded man who led the team, "I will hunt tigers tonight."
Based on the results of the path exploration just now.
"Tiger, there is a lake not far ahead. The lakeshore there has a wide view. We can take a rest there and discuss the next step."
"I'm going to fight tigers tonight" nodded and removed the power armor on his body in order to save energy. Yes, this thing is not an infinite energy source. Each grid of electricity must be filled with real points. In non-combat state, it is still
Save a little if you can.
"Um...President? How are the casualties on your side?" The bearded man casually asked Jia Shuai, who was riding towards him.
Among all the four teams, Jia Shuai's team lost the most, almost half the number when they first landed.
Jia Shuai had been counting the number of people just now, and he did not hesitate to ask "We will fight tigers tonight". He sighed and said: "The six first-level players all fell to death when they jumped into the landing cabin. The second-level players just now
12 died during the breakout, 6 fell behind because there were no vehicles, and now there are 54 left."
Luo Jie made a quick calculation in his mind, and found out that there were no losses for the four people on his side, but the unlucky guy playing with the rocket pack died on the "Emerald Cactus" side, and "I'm going to fight tigers tonight", 7 level 3 and 2 level 2 people.
There are no shortage of "chef" professionals. Taking into account the statistics compiled by Jia Shuai, there are now 75 people left among the 100 people who have entered the illusion.
Having lost a full quarter, it was definitely a bad start.
Not long after, a huge team of players passed through the jungle and arrived at the lake mentioned by the old man in the animal skin.
This place is not so much a lake as it is a slightly larger pond. The longest point is only about 200 meters, and the shortest point is barely 50 meters. When viewed from above with a drone, it looks like a blue inlaid in the jungle.
Big waist.
Perhaps because it is not the rainy season, the water level of the lake has dropped a lot. There is a wide lakeshore around it, and the view is extremely broad in any direction. It is indeed a good place to camp and rest.
Although there must be a lot of wild beasts in water sources like this, for players, visible dangers are always better than invisible dangers.
Everyone took back their riding animals and vehicles, and sat on the ground in the open space at the junction of the lakeshore and the jungle. They took drugs when they should, and cooked when they needed to, and took the time to recover the physical and mental energy consumed by the battle just now.
The bearded man "I'm going to fight tigers tonight" found a relatively flat sandy area and set up a simple table. He sent someone to invite Luo Jie, Jia Shuai and "Emerald Cactus" and started the event in a serious way.
The so-called "senior leadership talks" were held.
"I'm going to fight tigers tonight" is an upright person, at least on the surface, he goes straight to the point: "To make a long story short, what do you think of this elimination mission? Do you feel that the situation just now was a little bit wrong?"
"Emerald Cactus" folded his arms and held his chest in silence, with an indifferent attitude of "I'm too lazy to talk to you stinky man".
Jia Shuai nodded and affirmed: "Indeed, if the purpose of the system setting up this elimination task is to eliminate those players who are not willing to make progress and fish in the water, then the difficulty just now is too great, and it is completely to catch everyone in one go.
Rhythm. Moreover, if it is the butterfly effect caused by our actions, that’s it. This is just the beginning. No matter from any angle, the system should not set up such a dead end."
"It can't be considered a dead end, right? Didn't we rush over too..."
Luo Jie did not speak, the one who spoke was [Holy Glory] standing next to him.
As the only high-level main T in the entire team, he was also invited to participate in this combat meeting.
"I just thought about it carefully and suddenly discovered a very strange paradox."
Luo Jie's words immediately attracted several other people present, and even the indifferent King Kong Barbie "Emerald Cactus" glanced at him subconsciously.
"The purpose of the elimination mission cannot be to eliminate all the players in it. Otherwise, with the authority of the system, it would just throw us into a high-level illusion. There is no need to come up with such tricks that tightly limit our capabilities."
"But judging from the Mars cockroach swarm just now, it is obvious that it is a crisis that requires the collective strength of everyone to break through. If we had divided our troops into four groups according to the original plan, no, not four groups, even if it was just to separate high-level and low-level forces,
It is impossible for either side to break through the swarm of cockroaches completely."
Luo Jie actually has the ability to rush out alone, but keeping as many trump cards as possible in front of strangers is the only way to survive in the fantasy world. He does not intend to reveal the shocking information that he is a fourth-level player yet.
"I'm still hunting tigers tonight." I vaguely sensed a hint of disharmony, but couldn't find any inspiration. I couldn't help but asked directly: "What exactly is the paradox you are talking about?"
Luo Jing tapped his fingers on the table rhythmically: "Assuming that the battles we are going to face next are of this difficulty, then it will be impossible to explore separately as originally planned. But if we keep staying together like this
, then under the protection of high-level players, the casualties of low-level players will be drastically reduced."
Jia Shuai's eyes lit up and he suddenly said: "That's true. It feels like the system forces everyone to get together. However, in doing so, it loses the meaning of 'elimination'."
"I'm going to fight a tiger tonight." He frowned and said, "But why does the system want to slap itself in the face? This doesn't make sense..."
Others present could not figure this out, and subconsciously turned their attention to Luo Jie, who was the first to discover this detail.
"Logically, the system really shouldn't make such a low-level mistake unless it's not a mistake at all."
Luo Jie paused for a moment, his serious expression showing great dignity.
If it wasn't really unexplainable, he wouldn't want to come up with such an answer.
"Probably... among the players who participated in the elimination mission this time, some have already reached the fifth level."
Level five!
Everyone present looked shocked for a moment.
The third level is already a realm that they have barely entered with all their efforts. It is completely unimaginable that someone can surpass them by two levels in the same time.
"This... is impossible? How could someone do such a thing?"
Luo Jie spread his hands indifferently, with an expression that said he could believe it or not.
"Actually, I don't want to believe that such a terrible person exists, but this is the only reasonable explanation."
Hmm...guess what I want to say today? (Actually, I have nothing to say)
