"What...what happened?"
In the dormant cabin, Ke Ruoyun was forcibly awakened by Qin Xiaotian and asked with a sleepy face.
She rubbed her eyes, her thinking still a little confused.
The side effects of being forcibly awakened from the hibernation chamber are not serious, but it takes a minute or two to buffer before the body can return to its normal state.
"Something might have happened!"
Qin Xiaotian looked at the picture shared by Liu Bo with a serious expression.
Around Camp 42, dozens of groups of mechanical beasts appeared one after another.
The small number of these mechanical beast groups is only a few thousand, but the large number is close to the one hundred thousand mark.
"Ah! This..."
Ke Ruoyun summoned the mecha and was stunned when he saw the shared information.
How could it be that she was surrounded by mechanical beasts as soon as she woke up?
Is this a dream?
Ke Ruoyun glanced at Qin Xiaotian cautiously.
Well.
It shouldn't be a dream.
"What should we do now?" Liu Bo asked nervously;
Now there is a tide of beasts everywhere. Just by the firefly detection, thousands of awakened people have been carried over.
You know, this is the eighth night.
Candidates who can survive until this period of time and have not been eliminated can basically be said to be at the forefront of this batch of candidates.
"Let's observe the situation first. The higher-ups should send someone over to deal with it soon."
Qin Xiaotian was very calm at this time.
His words seemed to be a reassurance, and Xu Xingyue and the others also breathed a long sigh of relief.
"How about we go hide in the valley?"
Liu Bo glanced at the images sent back by the drone, and from among the thousands of images, he picked out the valley where he had ordered Qin Xiaotian to bomb by mistake.
The defense looks tough over there.
Staying there and waiting for help seems to be a good choice.
"there?"
Xu Xingyue shook his head and said uncertainly: "It should be a combat readiness warehouse over there. Will it be bad for us to go there?"
But Ke Ruoyun felt a little guilty and said: "It's better not to go there, if we have to pay compensation..."
She didn't say the following words.
But the meaning is already obvious.
In the past, I could not afford compensation even if I was beaten to death.
Nowadays, everyone has a little money in their pockets.
It's not even hot yet.
Don’t cry to death if you pay for it!
Thinking of the old days of pickled and white steamed buns, Ke Ruoyun's eyes were full of resistance.
"Let's stay here for now. Besides, we have to go back to Dune Bay Camp."
Qin Xiaotian also rejected Liu Bo's proposal.
So what if it's a war preparation warehouse over there.
Are you going to be a coward after entering?
It seems solid there, but while resisting the mechanical beasts, it also limits itself.
So the past doesn't mean much.
This beast tide is not something they can handle.
In the end, people from above must be sent down to solve the problem, so it doesn't matter where they are.
Just hold on to whoever comes.
Finally, Li Yu said with finality: "In this case, we will stay in the defense zone for the time being, but we have to move closer to the Dune Bay Camp. We can earn some points on the way. This assessment is almost done. With our current results, okay If you can't go to college, you should be fine if you live in an average place."
Everyone nodded.
Qin Xiaotian looked at the small recliner dug out with a sickle with some nostalgia.
After leaving this time, I'm afraid I won't come back again!
Liu Bo and Li Yu held the dormant cabin in their hands.
At this time, Qin Xiaotian, Ke Ruoyun and Xu Xingyue in the team all have long-range firepower. If they carry a sleeping cabin, it will be somewhat delayed.
So these trivial matters were handled by Li Yu and Liu Bo.
"Please note that all candidates should be aware that due to the abnormal state, the difficulty of the assessment has soared. All candidates are requested to evacuate to the Dune Bay Camp!
Due to abnormal events, the difficulty of the assessment has soared. All candidates are requested to evacuate to the Dune Bay Campground!
…”
Just when Qin Xiaotian and the others were approaching the Shaqiu Bay camp.
A notification from the assessment team suddenly came from the mecha public channel.
The instructor also forwarded this notice.
The five people looked at each other, and the stone in their hearts completely fell.
"Let's hurry up." Xu Xingyue suggested;
There are dangers here now. Returning to the camp as soon as possible will ensure everyone's safety.
"did not ask...."
Ke Ruoyun nodded her head, but before she could finish her sentence, she saw countless shooting stars suddenly flashing across the night sky.
It's an energy bomb.
At least tens of thousands of energy bombs!
"Fuck!"
"What the hell, is the assessment team asking me to die?"
When the energy flight trajectories were collected and the head weapons analyzed the impact locations of those energy bombs, both Li Yu and Liu Bo's faces turned dark.
Qin Xiaotian was also speechless for a while.
These energy bombs flew through the air and headed straight for the Dune Bay camp that was being notified.
"This is to completely wipe the camp off the map!" Qin Xiaotian murmured;
The only ones who dare to launch such a large-scale attack, or in other words on 021B, can launch such a large-scale attack are the mechanical beasts.
The caliber of these energy bombs generally ranges from 80 mm to 200 mm.
This is a saturation fire strike, this is showing off, and it is also a declaration of war!
I just don’t know if the instructor can escape this disaster.
"Eh?"
Just when everyone was at a loss, Qin Xiaotian saw three gold and silver shadows flying towards the sky in the distance.
At first glance, he thought it was some kind of strange starship. Only when the golden and silver flying object came closer did Qin Xiaotian see it clearly.
It turned out that there were three mechas flying through the sky.
"Damn it, a mecha with a flight module loaded on it!"
Liu Bo also saw these three mechas at this time. He danced excitedly, "Those with flight modules are at least silver level. Judging from their appearance, these three mechas should be gold level."
"Haha, for a boss of this level to attack a black iron-level mechanical beast, it's not like he can just pinch it with his hands."
Li Yu smiled and agreed, "We just need to follow them!"
"I think it's better to wait and see what happens!"
Ke Ruoyun clearly refused this time: "Judging from the surrounding situation, our area should be the last affected location, so don't move around for now."
While Ke Ruoyun was talking.
The three gold-level mechas that had plunged into the night suddenly emitted gorgeous beams of light.
Because the distance is too far, it is not very clear.
However, soon after the beam dimmed, Qin Xiaotian discovered that the mechanical beasts with long-range attack capabilities had stopped.
The surrounding mechanical beasts are still gathering here.
"All assessment personnel are requested to go to the marked location and evacuate!"
"All assessment personnel are requested to go to the marked location and evacuate!"
…
As the long-range firepower was cleared, a large number of 'Manta Ray' starships gradually appeared in the night sky.
The location where these starships landed is surprisingly within Zone 42.
It was less than 20 kilometers away from where Qin Xiaotian and the others were.
It can be reached in three to five minutes.
Not far away, a group of fifty mecha combat units passed Qin Xiaotian and the others and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
The mecha walking at the end stopped when it was about to pass by and said: "Now a large-scale wave of mechanical beasts has erupted nearly a thousand miles around. Please return to the starship and the port of call quickly. Then There is someone on hand to make arrangements.”
After saying that, he sped up to catch up with the team.
"Haha, they're from the military camp!"
"Let's go, it's completely safe now."
"With so many people from the military camp coming to suppress the beasts, we can't afford to waste much money."
After several twists and turns, the five of them are now exhausted.
Following the guidance of the previous soldier, Qin Xiaotian and others quickly arrived at the area where the starship was temporarily docked.
"Oh, there are quite a lot!" Liu Bo said in surprise.
At this time, at the landing site, there was a starship every few tens of meters, with hundreds of ships docked here.
There are also some starships slowly lowering in the sky.
Whenever a starship completely falls, a team of soldiers will come out.
"Let's go!"
Qin Xiaotian released his mecha state, randomly selected a starship and walked over.
Ke Ruoyun, Xu Xingyue and others followed closely and also released their status.
After the five people entered the team number through the instrument, they entered the starship.
Quietly waiting for the arrival of other awakened ones.
at the same time.
Below the ground, there was a rustling sound.
Covered by the flames of war outside, the dark worm quietly broke through the surface.
'呲,呲,,,'
A slight jet sound sounded.
The ferocious mouthparts of the black worm split open, and an egg-sized, cocoon-shaped thing was shot onto the bottom of the starship along with some mucus.
The moment the silkworm cocoon came into contact with the starship, it was absorbed like a leech, and the color of its surface began to slowly change.
In the end, he was like a chameleon, completely integrated into the starship.
It actually achieved complete optical invisibility.
And after doing all this, the black worm slowly sneaked into the ground.
…
Inside the dungeon.
The little girl with red eyes looked at the starships slowly moving away with the seeds, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Each starship can carry at most 5-10 seeds. I just don't know how many of these little treasures can escape in the end!"
"However, there is still a scene that needs to be performed!"
The little girl murmured and slowly closed her eyes.
Under the ground, those black worms that did not spray emitted blue-white light on their bodies. Their sizes rapidly changed and expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally formed various strange young mechanical beasts.
These mechanical beasts crawled quietly underground.
I don’t know when it will break out of the ground.
Of course, these have no impact on Qin Xiaotian and others who have left 021B.
——
In the center of the three planets 021A, 021B and 021C.
On the huge crescent-shaped docking port, there is an endless stream of starships coming and going.
"Hey, it's still a pity."
In the private room of a small restaurant, Li Yu patted his thigh and said with an annoyed face: "In the last wave, those mechanical bulls will definitely be able to produce hundreds of weapons!"
"That's it."
Xu Xingyue prepared the cups for Li Yu, handed them over, and said, "Even if you can get a thousand pieces, you still have to have the life to get them!"
"Hehe, Xingyue is right!"
Liu Bo opened the door of the box and walked in, holding four bottles of dancer liquid in his arms.
Each bottle is a standard one-pound package.
"I think life is the most important thing." Liu Bo put four bottles of wine on the dining table.
Li Yu stood up, picked up a bottle of dancer liquid, and looked at it, "62 degrees? This one is a bit strong!"
"Hey, this isn't raw pulp, why is it so strong?!"
Liu Bo muttered disdainfully, then looked at the girls in the field with a shy face and said, "Xingyue and Ruoyun can share one bottle, no problem!"
"I, I've never drank, so it should be fine!"
Sitting in the box, Ke Ruoyun felt a little embarrassed.
She followed Xu Xingyue's example, picked up the kettle, poured some boiling water into the bowl, and then gently rinsed the dishes.
This was her first time eating in a restaurant.
Well.
Somewhat nervous.
It would be much better if Brother Xiaotian was around.
Ke Ruoyun glanced at the empty seat next to him.
After thinking for a while, he finally reached out and picked up the dishes and chopsticks over there, and carefully washed them.
"Brother Xiaotian, why haven't you come yet?"
In the private room, when the dishes were being served, Xu Xingyue pouted and asked, "Isn't he lost?"
This meal can be said to be their celebration banquet, or it can be said to be their break-up meal.
Qin Xiaotian just went out with Liu Bo.
Liu Bo has been back for almost ten minutes.
"Well, maybe, maybe he has some unfinished business."
Ke Ruoyun muttered softly.
Maybe it was because of nervousness, but even before I drank, my face was already stained with a blush.
"What else can happen?"
Xu Xingyue's eyes kept spinning.
Before eating, they had already sold those exclusive weapon parts at the government recycling point.
There are specialized appraisers there, and the overall price is not much different.
Except for keeping some weapons for their own use, everything the team accumulated was sold, and a total of 1.7 small targets were sold.
After conversion, each person received more than 34 million.
For this huge sum of money, if all cash was inconvenient, they finally chose to carry paper deposit certificates.
Logically speaking, the most important thing has already been done.
What else can happen to Qin Xiaotian?
Xu Xingyue was a little curious.
But I didn’t think about it too much.
the other side.
Qin Xiaotian seemed to have really encountered something.
"I'm telling you the truth!"
Qin Xiaotian looked at the little girl in front of him who looked almost exactly like Ke Ruoyun, and said with a bitter face: "Just go to the box with me and take a look. Can I still lie to you?"
He was on his way to the bathroom just now and saw this girl as soon as he came out.
The other party was holding a bucket of instant noodles and filling the boiling water room with boiling water.
At first, Qin Xiaotian thought it was Ke Ruoyun.
He went up and grabbed the instant noodles from her hand without ceremony, threw it into the trash can next to her, and then rubbed her little head.
Pretending to be unhappy, he said: "What instant noodles are you eating here? Save your stomach and go back to eat delicious food!"
After saying that, he couldn't help but grab the other person's little hand.
The result can be imagined.
"What are you doing!"
Ke Ruoyu's face was filled with anger.
She stared at the instant noodles in the trash can, her nose twitching involuntarily.
She had just soaked it and didn't even have time to take a bite!
You know, this kind of delicacy is usually only bought by her and her sister when they encounter something happy.
Now it has been lost.
She wanted to bite the stinky man in front of her to death!
"I'll take you to eat something delicious!"
Qin Xiaotian's face was full of confusion. He hadn't reacted yet.
until.
When the 'Ke Ruoyun' in front of him asked him to pay for a bucket of instant noodles.
Qin Xiaotian was shocked.
The person in front of him was probably not the Ke Ruoyun he knew.
