Official Edition Part Two Chapter 47 Blood Pool General
We suffered heavy losses in this battle. Both the Soryu and the Anna were pulled back to Shambhala Port for repairs. Two of the fifteen warships guarding Shambhala were sunk and three were severely damaged. However, the Kingdom's navy was also very miserable.
, the seventh and fourth fleets were almost completely wiped out, and the second fleet also suffered varying degrees of blows. It was impossible for them to organize another large-scale attack in a short period of time. Moreover, in the battle of Shambhala, the Demon Realm King himself
News spread like wildfire that Shambhala was commanding the war with the kingdom. Free pirates from the entire East China Sea and Xinyue Sea were converging on Shambhala.
However, we are also very aware of our situation. Even if the fourth and seventh fleets are completely wiped out, the kingdom still has five fleets available. (The second fleet basically escaped unscathed.) Just because they are stationed in different ports, for a while,
It’s just that they can’t be transferred back. But if the kingdom realizes the threat of Shambhala to it, it will definitely launch a full-scale attack here. So we must preemptively strike before they take action. According to the calculations of the monkey-faced mayor, the kingdom may be in four
After a month, we will reorganize our forces and launch a full-scale attack on Shambhala. In view of this situation, we have set up a three-month preparation and training plan. In principle, the preparation plan will be under the unified command of the monkey-faced mayor.
Assisted by Wu Jia, Bo Yi, Lao Mao, and Xiao Ding. Three months later, no matter what the results of the preparations are, the operation against Wang Wangdu must be launched.
When the Shambhala improvement plan was launched, I, as an intern, also ended my short vacation and entered the next stage of internship competition with 20,000 other interns.
Since I was still thinking about some of the problems I encountered in Taiyi World, I returned to the internship base with a lot of questions. This time when I stepped into Taiyi Island, my mood was very different from the first stage of the audition. The number of people decreased.
, meaning the intensity of competition has intensified.
In addition, I also heard some rumors that some interns chose to give up internship opportunities because they were afraid of death. Most of these people, Taiyi Group, let it go, but the strange thing is that for some people, Taiyi tried its best to encourage them to stay, without knowing it.
No matter what method Taiyi used, after all, these people really stayed after being persuaded by them. But as far as we know, these people who were called to have a heart-to-heart talk were not all outstanding students. Some of them were still very good students by ordinary standards.
Trash guy.
Later, when Taiyi's leadership held a mobilization meeting, they told everyone that the test world is actually a big stage for us to perform freely. Everyone can do whatever they want and don't worry about the consequences. Success or failure is not that important, what is important is performance.
It doesn't matter if you perform well, but accidentally die in the test world. As long as you are still alive (referring to people in real life), Taiyi Group may make an exception and let you return to the test world. And the three best performers will be in the test world in the future.
It is also possible to directly enter the core department of Taiyi to work. As we all know, in Taiyi, entering the core department is not only the place with the highest technical content, but also you will often come into contact with senior executives when you enter the core department, and it is also the easiest to get promotion opportunities.
In fact, everyone shows their strength in this test world, as if they are striving for some ideal. However, there is only one ultimate goal - to enter the Taiyi Group. This is a very utilitarian purpose, but it is also very real. In fact, entering the Taiyi Group
There are many ways to work, but for those of us with no background, this seems to be the only option.
But after experiencing the Great Battle of Shambhala, I always have a strange feeling when I return to Taiyi Headquarters. It’s really strange... Taiyi Group seems to have always regarded the Demon World Group as a thorn in its side, and they continue to fight in the virtual world.
They want to use me to deal with their thorn in their side. So, on the one hand, I can become a member of the core department of Taiyi Group with just one sentence (agreeing to Gaster’s proposal), but on the other hand, I still have to be here.
I have to sharpen my head and participate in some internship assessment together with tens of thousands of people in order to become an ordinary employee of Taiyi Group.
Today, we got up early again and prepared to rush to the office to start our adventure in the test world. (Since the test world is not public, we can only enter this world through special access equipment in the office) As soon as we entered the office building, I
He stopped and said to his classmates: "You take a step first, and I will come later."
After everyone disappeared at the end of the corridor, I sat down weakly against the door of an unoccupied office in the corridor, then raised my head and stared blankly at the ceiling. Things have developed to this point, I really don’t know
What am I fighting for? Should I take the road of surrendering to the Taiyi Group, or should I take the road of no return and lead the Demon World Group to fight against the Taiyi Empire to the end?
But just when I was thinking wildly, the door I was leaning against suddenly opened. Without any warning, I fell into the room.
"Classmate Chen Shi, if you want to think about a problem, you can come in and think about it. This can save time." There was a man in a white coat standing in the room. He was looking at him with a pair of deep eyes embedded on the bridge of his tall nose.
As for me. Before I could answer, he closed the door and pressed a switch on the wall. A white light flashed, and then nothing changed in front of me. But at this time, the man was already sitting in his office.
At the table, he carefully studied a certain component in his hand.
"Teacher He..."
"Don't call it so cheesy, just call me He Dong." The man didn't even look back when he answered.
"Okay, He Dong, to be honest, I don't really like participating in this internship. I think there is actually no point in everyone fighting here."
"I hate this internship program too." He Dong still didn't look back when he spoke.
"Oh, why is that?"
At this time, he finally put down the things in his hands and turned around, looking at me quietly. After a moment of silence, he stood up from the chair, then walked slowly to the window and pushed hard.
I was stunned by the scenery shown outside the window. It was a European city full of Baroque style. The buildings outside the window abandoned scale and norms, using false but realistic detail contrasts and unexpectedly powerful and gorgeous decorations to express
Freedom. People were wearing clothes from the late sixteenth century and walking through the streets. At this time, a little newsboy ran up to He Dong, waving the newspaper in his hand, and asked loudly: "Sir, would you like a copy of today's newspaper?"
The Times Morning News? America and Britain are at war, France has a great revolution, and everyone is fighting for freedom. Sir, please buy a copy."
He Dong looked at the little newsboy with dark blue eyes, and without saying anything else, he simply took out a penny from his pocket and handed it to him. After the little newsboy left happily, He Dong then closed the door.
The window sat down again.
"Before you came, we were working in this test world at 200 or even 300 times the time. But after you came, the time in this world was adjusted to less than 30 times the time, but our workload has not been reduced at all.
Do you think we will like this so-called internship program?"
"Since it is a working environment, why does Taiyi Group create such a redundant real world? Isn't this a waste of money?"
"This world was not created by the Taiyi Empire. Its creator was Chaos. The Taiyi Group just took advantage of the environment here." He Dong took out two cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to me.
After I said no, he put the cigarette to his ear and lit the one in his hand. The white smoke slowly spread out and enveloped the small office.
"Actually, I like to stay here and quietly observe the changes in the world."
"You mean these NPCs."
"If you observe this world carefully, you will find that it is different. They grow very quickly, so fast that it can only be described as terrifying. Have you seen the eyes of the little newsboy? Even his eyes are twinkling.
The desire for a free world. Looking at them, I sometimes wonder what I am working for."
After hearing these words, I couldn't help but look at this careless Taiyi employee with a new look. Maybe I can get some answers I need from him.
"By the way, can I ask a question?"
"You asked."
"Do you think working at Taiyi Group is really that attractive?"
"Taiyi... Hahaha, I did think so seven years ago."
"Seven years ago?"
"Yes, seven years ago. I joined Taiyi Group at the same time as Tao Ziyan. At that time, I was 22 years old and he was only 16 years old. At that time, I was full of expectations for the future and wished I could work 1,000 hours a day. Maybe you don't
You know, I was the original debugger in this testing world, and the 300x working time balancing system was developed by me. I am also one of the only two people who has passed the thousand times time test.”
"Wow! You are so great, why are you still a soldier now?"
"Do you know Hong Xingrong?"
"Why don't you know? As soon as I entered the company, I heard that he was a popular person under Vice President Bai Chaoguang."
"During the press conference of the balance system, Hong Xingrong gave a report. All the cats and dogs in our department went, but I was left on duty in the 1000 times test world. Fortunately, I passed that day
1,000 hours of stress testing.”
"But in the end Hong Xingrong became the developer of the 300x balance system, right?"
"I think you will laugh at me when I say this. It doesn't matter if you laugh. You see, now I hate this system that squeezes 300 times the working hours of our energy, but I invented this system myself."
Hearing this, I couldn't help but hammer the table angrily and said angrily: "Why didn't you defend yourself? You can get your honor back easily."
"Is it easy? Haha, forget it, I still have to thank my old leader."
"Thank him, are you crazy?"
At this time, I saw a mysterious look flashing in He Dong's eyes. After taking a deep breath of cigarette, he said to me leisurely: "It was he who saved me, a workaholic, and made me understand the world."
There are other more important things that I need to pursue. After that day, I gave up Taiyi, but I gained the whole world."
What He Dong said was really strange, but I began to admire him a little. I don't know why, but I suddenly wanted to say something to him from my heart.
"He Dong, maybe you haven't seen it, but I am actually a complete liberal. I don't understand why I have to risk my life to fight with students from other countries in this world. I hate playing by the rules of the game arranged by others.
Life. But we have to live in it..."
"I know this because I have been observing you for a long time."
After saying that, we both couldn't help but look at each other and smile. Now I finally understand why I wanted to say something to him. Maybe, he and I are the same kind.
"He Dong, I have one last question to ask you."
"explain."
"You said, do I still need to help the Chinese Federation of Students dominate the world?"
After hearing my question, He Dong smiled mysteriously. Then he walked to the door, opened it a small crack, peeked outside, and then came back and said to me: "Chen Shi, this is our
It’s a private conversation between brothers, I hope you won’t tell any third person.”
Seeing me nodding, He Dong leaned over and whispered to me: "Actually, there is a big secret behind this so-called internship."
"The big secret?"
"You know the three God Chips of Pangu, Nuwa and Fuxi."
"I heard that he mysteriously disappeared during a human experiment about twenty-two years ago."
"How old are you this year?
"Twenty-one, almost twenty-two."
"That's right. The recruitment of more than 60,000 people for this internship is actually a cover-up. Taiyi's real target is only a few thousand people. The reason why we let everyone fight here is not to select the best employees.
, mainly because we want to stimulate the potential of the three great chips through fierce competition."
"Ah!" He Dong's words were truly astonishing, and half of the mystery in my mind was revealed at once: "So are all of us actually here to serve as foils for you, the host of the Three Great God's Chips?"
"Hey, who is the protagonist and who is the foil? Not even Taiyi Group has an answer yet."
"Aren't they afraid that the owners of the God Chip will be eliminated midway?"
"That's why you don't understand the terrifying part of the God Chip. You have to know that there are only eighteen God Chips in the world. Each one has a power beyond nature. The person who obtains it can stand on the ground.
The top of the pyramid. How can ordinary people be its opponents? What's more, these three chips have been integrated with their owners for twenty-two years, which is very scary."
"So..." At this point, I couldn't go on because I thought about the recent escalation of deaths of interns. Is this related to the chips of the three gods? You know, the characters in the Taiyi world in the past few decades
Sudden death has never happened before. If the current situation continues, the tens of thousands of us remaining interns may become sacrifices for the God Chip.
He Dong seemed to have read through my inner thoughts. After he smiled slightly, he patted my shoulder and said to me: "Chen Shi, do you know why there suddenly was a horrific incident in which a large number of interns died?"
"Isn't it because the system in the test world is unstable?"
"No! no! no! I have been working in the testing world for seven years, why haven't I seen him in any unstable condition? A dead person... is a big event."
"What's the reason for that?"
He Dong didn't answer immediately. He threw the burnt cigarette butt in his hand on the ground and stamped it out with his foot. Then he looked at me sideways with his mysterious eyes, and then looked at me.
