In the next forty minutes or so, many changes occurred in the game field.
Hu Yang asked his men to disperse, and two or three old members led the new members into groups of five, spreading in all directions.
Forty groups of people spread out over a large area in the field, hunting in turn the scouts sent by the other party and absorbing more lone people.
Due to the need to absorb new blood, these people under Hu Yang's command cannot ambush anyone on sight as they did before when the relationship between the enemy and the enemy was clear. They have to have close contact and conversation with the opponent to judge the opponent's position.
This caused considerable difficulties for everyone's work.
But even so, when everyone regrouped after another hour, the size of the team still expanded to 500 people, doubling again.
There are still people with evil intentions in the new team, but Hu Yang is at her peak at this time, and both loyal wingmen and the newly established guard team are enough to ensure her safety.
Although the hunting group lost a lot of espionage personnel, they successfully built four bases on the site to help each other.
Each base covers an area of nearly ten acres, and each has more than 500 people stationed in it.
The size of the hunting group expanded to more than 2,000 people.
Although the strength is uneven, at least the number of people looks very intimidating, and some people have further increased their own strength by exploiting other people's equipment, which can be regarded as forming a cutting-edge combat force that can compete with Populus euphratica.
In addition to these two factions, the third party force, which has been renamed the Self-Salvation Alliance, has developed particularly dazzlingly.
It has expanded to more than a thousand people, and the staff size is even larger than Populus euphratica.
Not only that, the atmosphere within this self-rescue alliance is also extremely strange.
They were very excited and eager to fight.
They have greater trust in each other and regard every teammate around them as a true brother or sister.
What's even stranger is that almost every new person who joins the self-rescue alliance will quickly fully integrate into it and become a reliable alliance member after talking to its leader.
It would be fine if they were just lone contestants. What really aroused Ren Zhong's vigilance was a reconnaissance team from the Populus euphratica team.
The captain of this reconnaissance team was one of the first contestants to follow Hu Yang, and was also one of the nineteen warriors who accompanied Hu Yang to the rear.
He is a relatively decent man, can be considered brave and resourceful, and has firm beliefs.
While out on an operation, the reconnaissance captain and his team encountered the self-rescue alliance head-on, but no conflict broke out.
The leader of the self-rescue alliance showed goodwill and took the initiative to come forward and said to the scout captain: "Now the number of contestants in the field is about to fall below four thousand. Except for a few people who are living outside, most of them have joined our three parties. At present, the hunting group is the most powerful, and you and we are the second and third respectively. I propose that we should temporarily form an alliance, merge into one, join hands to destroy the hunting group, and then consider the long term. Please consider my proposal. Convey this to Hu Yang. Also, please tell her that I personally admire her very much."
After hesitating for a moment, the reconnaissance captain truthfully told the words of the leader of the self-rescue alliance.
Hu Yang could not deny that the other party made a very tempting proposal.
From an objective logic point of view, the other party's proposal is indeed a shortcut to victory and the most likely way to achieve the ultimate goal.
Of course, having an idea does not mean that an alliance will be formed immediately. There are still many details that need to be negotiated.
Ever since, Hu Yang asked the reconnaissance team leader to transfer the communicator to the leader of the self-rescue alliance and said: "This is indeed a good idea, but after the merger, who will be in charge."
Leader: "I have observed the entire battle between you and the hunting group. Your military ability is far superior to mine. Of course, you should be the leader."
Hu Yang was shocked.
She thought she would have to argue a bit, but she didn't expect the other party to be so reasonable.
Leader: "Ms. Hu, otherwise you see it like this. I know you have doubts now, but I think we should meet and talk candidly in person. There is no disagreement that cannot be discussed in person. If you are worried, then I You can also enter your camp without any followers or weapons. How about that?"
Hu Yang: "Aren't you afraid that I will take the opportunity to control you?"
Leader: "Don't be afraid."
"Why?"
"Because in this game arena, the only person I admire is you. I also unconditionally believe that you will not do such a thing, so I am willing to put my life in your hands, just in exchange for someone who can talk to you face to face. Opportunity. If you agree, I can follow your reconnaissance team and come to see you."
Faced with such sincerity from the other party, no normal person would be able to refuse.
Populus euphratica is no exception.
She just barely blurted out and agreed.
But the moment she opened her mouth, a reminder of Ren Zhong's past flashed through her mind.
After a moment of silence, Hu Yang shook his head in the air, "It's not necessary to meet in person. But I think we can reach a preliminary cooperation agreement just like this and launch attacks on different camps of the hunting group at the same time. How about that?"
Toot toot toot…
Hu Yang did not wait for the answer from the other side.
Apparently the communicator had been turned off.
The leader of the self-rescue alliance on the opposite side carried the communicator that had just been turned off behind his back, with a strange smile on his face.
The reconnaissance captain asked, "What's wrong?"
The leader smiled and shook his head, "It's nothing. I have to admit that Miss Hu is indeed a very cautious person. I'm afraid I won't have the chance to meet her. What a pity."
The reconnaissance captain wondered: "How could this happen? Let's work together first to establish initial trust. Sister Hu will definitely meet you then."
"No, she won't." The leader was still shaking his head. Then, he looked at the reconnaissance captain and the six members behind the captain, and said loudly: "I ask you, why are you following Hu Yang."
The scout captain subconsciously replied: "Of course because I trust her."
Leader: "But how do you know she's not lying to you? Have you known her before?"
"Huh?" The scout captain and his team members looked up at the leader, wondering what his intentions were.
At this time, in the reconnaissance captain's field of vision, the opponent's eyes shone with a strange luster, and there seemed to be a nebula-like vortex in the pupils.
But on the other side, there was no such change in the holographic images seen by Ren Zhong and other viewers.
After a long time, the reconnaissance captain suddenly smiled and said, "You are right. I was hasty."
His tone was extremely soft, and he no longer had the slightest bit of vigilance and caution as before.
It was as if he regarded the other person as his blood brother who shared life and death.
The other scouts did the same, saying similar things in similar tones.
The leader of the self-rescue alliance nodded with satisfaction and patted the scout captain on the shoulder, "Well, I'm glad you can join my big family. Welcome."
The scout captain nodded heavily, "Thank you for taking in this lonely soul of mine."
Leader: "You're welcome, this is what I should do. I will protect each of you."
Like every new member recruited by the self-rescue alliance before, the scout captain and his team members betrayed Hu Yang seamlessly.
This scene made Ren Zhong look a little creepy outside.
Previously, I only thought that this person was particularly good at talking, but now it seems that things are not as simple as talking.
In the game field, most of the other contestants were frightened and in urgent need of someone to support them, so there was a reasonable explanation for being moved by this man's few words.
But as a rapidly rising loyal warrior belonging to Populus euphratica, the most reasonable reaction when faced with provoking discord is to get furious.
But in the end, Ren Zhong saw that it was indeed the opposite development, which was not in line with the logic of human nature.
Something unexpected must have happened.
This happened within ten minutes of the full hour.
Although Populus euphratica lost several subordinates, it did not suffer serious losses.
Finally, as the announcement sounded from above the game field, it was announced that the time had reached 9:30 at night, the game was suspended, and it would resume at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning.
The communication time between players and contestants is also five minutes before the game continues tomorrow.
The first night is over.
Then, countless metal pipes began to protrude from the walls and the ground of the game field. Pink gas emerged from the metal pipes and quickly spread to the entire field. All the contestants fell down softly. They were forcibly hypnotized. It's like pressing the pause button while playing a game.
At this point, the citizen player has two choices, either to rest in the deck for the night, or to get up and leave, use the remaining half hour to return home, and come back tomorrow morning.
Ren Zhong thought for a moment and said to Zhou Ya next to him: "Please help me contact the Census Officer College. I hope to postpone the admission to the day after tomorrow. I have to stay here tomorrow, and I have to see the game end."
Zhou Ya was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on her face, and then she quickly calmed down, replaced by confusion and sadness, "Well, okay, no problem."
Ren Zhong narrowed his eyes, "If I postpone my admission, the college won't have any objections, right?"
Zhou Ya shook her head, "Of course not. They even..."
As she spoke, she closed her mouth again.
Ren Zhong knew it and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Ya: "Nothing."
In fact, it goes without saying that Ren Zhong is clear in his heart.
What the top leaders of the association most want to see is for themselves to indulge in "enjoyment" in Xiayuanjing City and not miss Shu.
Playing a personal game that even the academy is willing to go to is not exactly what you want.
Afterwards, Ren Zhong lay down on his back, preparing to use his improved watch to enter the sleeping space and start searching for information.
While he was checking, he felt his body being shaken. When he opened his eyes, it was Zhou Ya.
Zhou Ya: "I just told the college. Are you going to stay here tonight?"
Ren nodded, "Yes."
Zhou Ya: "As your official assistant, I will stay with you here."
Ren Zhong: "Okay, thank you."
"Ah?" Zhou Ya was slightly stunned.
She originally thought that Ren Zhong would refuse her bed, but she didn't expect that he would agree to it.
She was a little bit incapacitated.
She stood up and was about to take off her clothes when she saw that Ren Zhong had closed his eyes and his breathing became even and long.
Yes, this person has fallen asleep and entered the sleep space.
It's just a waste of expression.
Zhou Ya sat back on the sofa angrily and adjusted the control button to sleep mode.
The sofa expanded on its own and turned into a comfortable large bed, and a soft quilt rose from the hole in the ground next to it.
Zhou Ya grabbed the cup and was about to cover it, but then looked at Ren Zhong next to him, sat up straight again, covered the spread cup on Ren Zhong, returned to his position, and clicked the operation again to let the smart assistant Another quilt was delivered.
Ren Zhong had already returned to the contestant information database provided by the club and clicked on a person's information.
It was the leader of the self-help alliance.
Something strange happened.
This man has no name.
In the name column, there is a long list of notes.
"Sample No. 38 of the 1622nd Experiment of the Eighth Group of the Human Potential Research Project Team of the Central Laboratory of the Mengdu Group".
