"Wu Chen, are you asleep?" The central control screen lit up with Bailiyan's audio.
"Not yet." Wu Chen lay flat on the driver's seat and was looking up at the stars through the sunroof.
"How much do you remember about the shelter?" Bailiyan asked lightly.
"Not much." Wu Chen thought for a while and said, "Perhaps just like my AE86, the memories related to the shelter are also sealed in a certain node in the past. You need to file it first to get it."
"I think so too." Bailiyan said softly: "So, we are fixed."
"Yes." Wu Chen revealed the truth: "This is the first time I have experienced the broken shelter."
"Me too." Bailiyan always felt that he and Wu Chen seemed familiar. It's a pity that the memory of the shelter is also broken together with the shelter. Although the memory cannot be carried with me, the heartfelt and inexplicable feeling of closeness will never be false. So it can be determined that there must have been intersections with each other when they were in the shelter before. So even though I have no memory, my good feelings are always with me. The fact is just as Bailiyan thought, Wu Chen is very familiar with her.
"What's in the Exiled Land?" Wu Chen asked about the end of the trip.
"I heard that there is a 'Broken City' at the end of the 404 Ring Road." Bailiyan also heard about it. Along the way, someone always mentioned it repeatedly in the player channels.
"The place of exile, the broken city." Wu Chen remembered it.
"Players also call it the 'city that never sleeps'." Bailiyan said with a smile: "It sounds like science fiction."
"It sounds like it's a land without an owner again." Just by looking at the words "City That Never Sleeps", Wu Chen has already realized that there is a mixture of good and bad, and a large number of players.
"I heard that there is a master in the city that never sleeps." What Bailiyan said was not beyond Wu Chen's expectation. Once upon a time, he was a powerful demigod plot lord.
"Who is the Lord of Nightless City?" Wu Chen asked.
"No one knows yet." After all, like Wu Chen, Bailiyan was new here.
Looking up at the starry sky gradually blurring, Wu Chen blinked subconsciously: "It's foggy."
"Annihilation is approaching." Bailiyan hurriedly started the car: "Hurry up."
The RV of the player and his wife also started in an emergency: "Quick, hurry up."
Bailiyan took the lead, Wu Chen followed closely, and the RV trailed behind. The three cars accelerated out of the observation deck and rushed onto the roundabout expressway.
Looking back in the rearview mirror, Wu Chen saw the fog getting further and further away, and Wu Chen thought: "Wait a minute."
"What's wrong?" Bailiyan asked lightly.
"Escape will only freeze the frame." Wu Chen expressed his worries.
"Well...that's right." Bailiyan agreed.
"What should we do?" the male player asked hurriedly.
"Return to the service area." Wu Chen said in surprise.
"Now?" the male player exclaimed.
"Now." Wu Chen became more and more certain.
"Okay." Bailiyan turned around first.
The three vehicles drove in reverse, retracing their steps and rushing into the fog.
Not long after going retrograde, the fog gradually thickened. The AE86 car shell rustled. The paint on the car was eroded first and flew into mist. Visible to the naked eye, the color of the car body gradually fades. The super car shell is exposed.
"Master, the car body is suffering from unknown corrosion." Ai Yi, the brain in the car, also noticed something unusual.
"Quantify erosion data and create an annihilation progress bar." Wu Chen remained calm in the face of danger.
"Yes." Before Wu Chen finished speaking, the annihilation progress bar was displayed on the large central control screen. Born in New Hong Kong, Wu Chen's exclusive main world, the vehicle-mounted brain created by Cybertronian Transformers is powerful enough.
As the retrograde travel deepens, the fog flying from the car has exceeded the surrounding environment. It can even temporarily cover car windows.
"Be careful." Bailiyan swerved to avoid the oncoming car.
Wu Chen and the player couple hurriedly evaded danger. The two cars intersected and looked at each other. The look in the strange player's eyes said it all. When annihilation strikes, there is no way to escape even with wings. There are still people who have thrown themselves into the trap. What are you going back for? !
Logically speaking, the AE86's super alloy shell should be stronger. However, the accelerating annihilation progress bar is no different from the two vehicles before and after it. Perhaps it means that the encounter in front of you is a rule on another level. The dissociation and annihilation of matter at the regular level correspond to visible erosion, atomization, and even the accelerated disintegration of the entire world.
It seems that the situation is inevitably falling apart. However, Wu Chen and others were fixed on Highway 404. Can't find a breakthrough, and can never reach the Broken City at the end of the highway.
"The car hood has been eroded." Aiyi, the in-car intelligence brain, broadcast in real time.
Just looking at Bailiyan's rusty and riddled front car, you can see that the condition of AE86 is not much better. Along with the billowing smoke, the rust spots were visible to the naked eye and continued to expand. Once the car shell is gone, players are doomed. Both body and mind will be corroded if exposed to the outside. This is a rule-level strangulation. Players have no power to fight back.
Seeing that a large part of the car hood disappeared, the hood will also be damaged. Bailiyan finally broke the silence: "We're here."
The male player exclaimed: "Oh my god..."
I saw that the sky above the service area was shrouded in the eye of the storm. From top to bottom, large pieces of the building fell off and disintegrated. It gathered into a huge smoke column, twisted and rose, and was swallowed by the eye of the storm. The architectural fragments torn away by invisible forces are also the same as the main body of the building. Visible to the naked eye, it turns into dust. The sky was littered with fragments, like embers of flint of varying sizes. Thick smoke billowed around the body, atomizing and dissociating at a faster pace. Before it landed, it was all sucked into the eye of the storm——
It seemed like a black hole that tore through time and space and swallowed everything hung high above everyone's heads. Destroy the entire world.
"Don't get out of the car." From the loudspeaker, the sound of a male player slamming the door was heard: "As long as you are exposed, you will be covered in smoke."
This is a profound lesson for male players to take risks. The broken plot world is difficult for even Shelter VIP players to resist.
"Rush in." Bailiyan made a quick decision.
Four people and three cars crashed into the door.
The seemingly intact service hall is riddled with holes inside. On the walls with air leakage on all sides, the holes were visible to the naked eye and expanded rapidly. When fragmentation strikes, players who are stranded and have no clue about the plot have no time to escape. Not daring to take the risk of picking up the car, I rushed out of the service area. Then the situation took a turn for the worse and he was forced into a desperate situation.
Seeing Wu Chen and others driving through the door, the stranded players swarmed over. Surrounded the three cars.
There are especially many people around the couple's RV. He banged on the car door desperately and scrambled to escape.
There are also players who knock on the AE86 car window urgently.
"Let it go or not?" Bailiyan asked first.
"Running away will only freeze the frame." Wu Chen responded.
"If you don't run away, you will be broken." The male player couldn't hide his panic. Seeing that the service hall was in pieces, it was about to collapse. If you don’t run away now, wait until later.
"What's behind the eye of the storm?" Wu Chen always felt like someone was spying from behind.
"No one knows." Bailiyan spoke quickly: "There are no survivors."
As time passed by, the male player spoke urgently again: "Someone is willing to pay 1 coin to take him to the parking lot to pick up his car."
"It's feasible." Bailiyan answered first.
"Okay." One coin is enough to gain a helping hand. The male player opened the car door and let more than ten players into the car. Then he turned around and drove out, heading to the parking lot. Come and go, earn ten coins. However there are pros and cons. As soon as you enter and exit, the corrosion of the car body increases. There was no time to feel heartbroken, as more than ten players crowded into the RV. Wu Chen and Baili Yan, also loaded with players, went to the parking lot to pick up their cars.
After going back and forth like this several times, there were only a few players left in the lobby. The player couple earned dozens of asylum coins. Wu Chen and Baili Yan also received ten coins each.
At this time, there were only a few people left in the hall. I don’t know if he is penniless or if he has some ulterior motives.
"Take them with you." Wu Chen made a quick decision.
"Where are we going?" The male player was nervous but could not hide his excitement.
"Go to the maintenance station first." Wu Chen remained calm in the face of danger.
"Okay." Bailiyan understood.
1 coin can be used to withdraw files.
