This was the first time Zhang Heng met other players in a dungeon. Before that, he had always cleared the level alone. He only needed to think about how to use the surrounding environment and the resources at hand to complete the main mission, without thinking too much about other things.
However, there were six other players who entered the game with him in the Apollo Project training camp, none of whom knew each other. Each person's identity, background, skills, and game props were unknown.
Seven people are competing for three places. Even if everyone can reach a short-term peace, it actually doesn't make any sense, because those who are lagging behind will definitely not just sit back and wait for death. Of course, this is not the reason why Zhang Heng opposes the glasses man's proposal. Just like the man with glasses may not know that his proposal is meaningless.
Anyone who has played a killing game knows the importance of character.
The dangers in this round of the game not only come from the outside, but also from among the players. As the game progresses, players not only need to collect information about tasks and find ways to get good results in training, but also need to collect other information. Player information to know who is a potential threat and who is an ally to form an alliance with.
A fact that no one mentions but is obvious - the person who ranks behind in training must kill the players in front if they want to board Apollo 11.
Therefore, usually, the earlier a person shows up, the better he performs in training and the easier it is to become a target for others.
But this is not entirely the case.
Because there are three places to board Apollo 11, that means you don’t need to kill all the players who are better than yourself. In fact, when making the actual choice, players need to weigh many factors, in addition to training. In addition to performance, we also need to consider the other party's strength, relationship with each other, and the other party's role in the subsequent moon landing process.
This is why the high school student chooses to share the information he possesses with other players, while the man with glasses tries to become the leader of the team.
As for Zhang Heng, he chose another path. Affected by the Black Sail dungeon, he had a more fierce temperament than ordinary people. When he first entered the new dungeon, he could clearly feel the other players' feelings towards him. He was on guard. Except for the girls who had always been interested in him, even the fat man who was obviously a little bit marginalized didn't dare to get too close to him.
At this time, spending energy and time to change everyone's opinions is already a thankless task, and it may not have much effect. Zhang Heng simply solidified such a character and used this method to tell those who planned to target him. It is best for those who want to carefully consider the risks involved.
Sure enough, as soon as he said these words, the eyes of the strong man named Edward and the high school student changed, and the middle-aged man with intellectual appearance also frowned. Along the way, they all discovered that Zhang Heng might It was more difficult to deal with, so the middle-aged man who looked like an intellectual was actually testing Zhang Heng with this question. Unexpectedly, the other party turned out to be tougher than they imagined.
From the current point of view, Zhang Heng is undoubtedly the most difficult to mess with among the seven players, and the opponent has made it clear that they do not intend to pay attention to the other players, which makes it difficult for them to collect too much useful information from Zhang Heng, so they have to Do not re-evaluate the possible threats posed by the other party and your own follow-up strategies.
The only female player among the crowd was not surprised but overjoyed, her eyes lit up.
But the next moment, the captain had already opened the door again and came in, "Okay, you should have read the study manual and know what knowledge you need to master. The bureau has specially arranged experts to teach you. Classes start at four o'clock every afternoon and start at six o'clock. After class, the second class starts at 6:30 and ends at 8:30, and the third class starts at 12:00 and ends at 2:00."
"Sorry," the high school student raised his hand, "The third class you mentioned is from 12 noon to 2 p.m.? Shouldn't this be counted before the first class in this time sequence?"
"No, you have other training tasks during that time. The third class I'm talking about is from twelve o'clock in the evening to two o'clock in the morning." The captain maintained his usual cold expression, "I believe you also know, leave it to us Time is running out and we must seize every minute and every second, so I hope you won’t waste the little time you have left with such stupid questions next time.”
The fat man opened his mouth wide when he heard this, with a look of shock on his face, "I still have to study early in the morning. The college entrance examination is not that extreme, right?!"
The captain turned sideways and let an old man with oil stains on his shirt collar and messy hair who looked like he hadn't washed for several days come in, "Dr. Steve, from the Manned Spaceflight Office, he will personally explain to you the main functions of the Saturn V launch vehicle. construction, and basic rocket physics.”
"Now?" The middle-aged man who looked like an intellectual was also stunned. "According to the usual practice, shouldn't we visit the space center first to learn about the current space program and get to know the logistics staff who work together? How can we solve things like our accommodation and food?”
"Don't worry, food and accommodation have been arranged for you all. As for the visit, it is scheduled for six o'clock tomorrow morning." The captain said after flipping through something similar to a schedule in his hand.
"Wait a minute, you seemed to have said before that the third class won't end until two in the morning, right? Then we have to get up at six o'clock?"
"It's a collection."
"Sorry?" The strong man named Anthony thought there was something wrong with his hearing.
"It's a gathering, gathering at six o'clock, not getting up." The captain corrected, "Also, don't waste your class time anymore. What you learn here will determine whether you can survive after entering space, so, Just do yourself a favor, work harder, and don’t get distracted when you listen to the lecture later.”
After saying that, the captain stopped answering any questions and nodded to Dr. Steve standing aside, "Let's get started, doctor." After that, he left the conference room and closed the door behind him. Before leaving, The nearest high school student heard him mutter, "This new class..."
The old man handed out a textbook with more than 600 pages, and then picked up the chalk, "Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, nice to meet you. Today we will study the first chapter, the physical principles of rocket propulsion..."
Forty-five minutes later, the bell for the end of get out of class that everyone had been waiting for did not ring. In fact, despite Steve's general health, he walked a little shaky, but he stood there for two hours and couldn't tell. I was a little tired. Not only did I not mention resting in the middle, but I was still talking incessantly after class ended at six o'clock.
"Who said that there is no drag in capitalism?" the fat man with dull eyes muttered.
