"There is only one bullet in the gun." This sentence came back from the car driving away.
Xu Huo bent down to pick up the gun, took out the magazine and looked at it. Sure enough, there was only one bullet.
But the same cannot be said for the thugs who surrounded him. Each of them had a gun and several magazines.
Xu Huo held the gun, suddenly looked up at the dark sky, and sighed: "It's so boring."
He woke up.
There were no signs of attack on the props, everything was safe in the shelter, and Housekeeper No. 25 was still sitting next to him.
Putting away his protective armor and "Three Seconds of Life", he opened the door and walked out.
"You came out in less than three hours, so fast?" Chi Xian came over, "Are you still asleep or are you awake?"
Three hours should be taken into account the accumulated time from each previous wake-up call. In fact, he only slept for less than two hours.
"When you wake up, get up and have a meal." Xu Huo said.
"Brother Xu is so funny." Tong Qi, who was chewing chicken legs, opened the window of the transparent rubber house and threw a pack to him. "My mother braised this. It's delicious."
"Since it is determined that it is not a bacterial problem, eating and drinking should not have much impact." Chi Xian explained beside him.
The game sells disposable protective covers. Xu Huo followed the Romans and used the protective cover before tearing open the vacuum packaging bag and taking a sip.
“The taste is good.”
"Right," Tong Qi said with a smile: "A lot of times you can't even find a place to eat when you enter a dungeon. What's the point of living without delicious food?"
Other players also briefly took off their protective masks and ate something. After everyone had finished eating and drinking, Yi Jun asked Xu Huo what he had gained this time.
"Similar to other people, dreams are mostly scenes that have been seen in daily life, mixed with some unfamiliar elements. The content of the dream is partly derived from personal experience, and the fictional scenes are mainly to suggest the dreamer to make choices."
"There is no tendency to choose, and there is no distinction between good and evil. You can only wait until the dream deepens to see if there will be any other changes."
At this point, he said to Yi Jun: "You should also go and take a nap. Maybe the length of sleep will affect the progress of the copy."
Yi Jun nodded, took out a small venue prop, and said to everyone with a smile: "I guess I am no exception, so I won't bother everyone to wake me up, I can just go to sleep. Good night, everyone."
The players who had not fallen asleep during the day couldn't bear it when they saw this, secretly preparing props and preparing to disperse and rest.
"Wait a minute, you are all asleep. Who is responsible for security tonight?" Tong Qi interrupted them.
"Can't we just let the person responsible for sleeping during the day be responsible?" Mi Yao's family said impatiently: "Is there anything to argue about?"
"Are you okay? Brother Xu and the others have to sleep during the day and be awake at night every day? You must have made a good calculation," Tong Qi deliberately made an exaggerated expression.
For players, there is no problem in reversing day and night for a short period of time, but Tong Qi is dissatisfied with the attitude of these people who only want to facilitate themselves and hide behind others to take advantage, especially the Mi Yao family who retreated during the day.
"What qualifications do you have to criticize others?" Mi Yaojia stared at him, "You charged into battle?"
"No," Tong Qi said matter-of-factly, "but I made it clear from the beginning that I won't sleep or clear the level. I can help watch when others are sleeping."
"That being said, who knows if you are planning to wait until everyone else is asleep before sleeping again." Mi Yaojia said gloomily.
Tong Qi chuckled, "I was dreaming all night last night, ahead of you!"
Several players nearby were a little impatient, and Scar Glasses said: "It's pointless to argue over such a trivial matter."
"If you want to sleep, just sleep. It's not like other people can't sleep at night. You can just change it." Liao Xiaorong said: "Rather than fighting for schedule time, it's better to be careful not to die in your sleep."
Although you can approach and explore the dungeon while dreaming, there are also risks. Maybe the longer you sleep, the harder it will be to wake up?
Who can say this well?
There are risks anyway.
"But what Tong Qi said makes sense." Chi Xian said: "We are all on the same boat. If we can't work together, who can guarantee that they will come up with the clues they find?"
This is a bit serious.
"Okay." Xu Huo interrupted them and said to Mi Yao's family and others: "You go and have a rest. Don't use the props."
Seeing what they wanted to say, Xu Huo continued: "If you don't agree, you can leave."
Now everyone was speechless.
With so many people trying the wake-up time, there was no need to try again. After they fell asleep, Xu Huo turned to Chi Xian and asked, "Aren't you going to sleep?"
Chi Xian smiled and said, "I can still hold on."
Xu Huo was noncommittal.
The night was long, and there were too many people here to play puzzle balls, so he talked to the people in Brown Skin City and asked about the situation in Brown Skin City.
Since they choose to follow, these people will definitely not resist the players, and they will say whatever they ask.
The situation in Brown Skin City is similar to what Xu Huo learned before. Although there are people in District 013 who are even more miserable than the people in Brown Skin City, there are not many who are as burdened as them.
As they grow up, they can only successfully survive childhood if they develop something as thick as another layer of skin on their bodies. After the brown skin forms, fungi and various parasites
Creatures will achieve a delicate balance on their bodies. Usually they can eat bugs growing on their bodies to detoxify or satisfy their hunger, but the average life span of humans is not long.
"Children die the most." One of them said: "Our brown leather city originally had a population of 30 million. Later, nearly 20 million people moved in one after another. Now there are less than 2 million left. Most of the people
It hasn’t gone through the stage of fungus mutation.”
"Are all players like this?" Xu Huo asked.
"It's all like this," they said with certainty: "We have very few players there to begin with. Many of them went out before and never came back. They are probably dead. Some of the evolvers who slowly appeared later were children who grew up after being infected.
"
"Originally, we were counting on players who went out, but they had no choice. They had no choice. There were too many bacteria infected on their bodies, and there was no permanent antidote available in the game."
These people understand better that there may be a glimmer of hope for players to go out, but the people living in Brownskin City will never be saved by using antidotes.
So they pinned everything on "Midsummer Night's Starry River".
"Since someone has successfully detoxified and walked out of 'Midsummer Night's Starry River,'" Tong Qi said from the side, "does it mean that there is actually an antidote in the game that can completely cure the people of Brown Skin City?"
The people chatting turned to look at him.
Tong Qi scratched his head and said, "I shut up."
But what he said was right, but he didn't know whether this hope was given by the game or by someone else.
