Chapter 416 Try
Pollution is both the source and the end of professionals.
Facing pollution runs through the whole life of a professional, and even the so-called "profession" comes from it.
"...In order to fight against the pollution from the outside world, I first pollute myself."
Fragile mortals have no resistance at all in the face of high-dimensional pollution.
That is not the scope of personal strength and courage. When your body, your city, or even your world, is directly melted into a ball because of a certain existence that is too close. That kind of "gravel" is called "planet" The sense of powerlessness captured by gravity has long since had nothing to do with individual will.
If you can resist, you can resist.
No, it's over.
".Regular-level pollution source? Are you kidding me? This is murder, you guys!"
When the news spread, countless secret keepers chose to give up, and more than half of the candidates directly gave up the exam in the most dishonorable way. You know, each of them is a senior secret keeper, and having a certificate is even better than not having a certificate. powerful faction.
They have faced pollution and faced powerful enemies, so they really understand what the "golden rule" means.
".Is this the end of me?"
Lu Xinghui, who has been in the industry for eleven years, is a senior secret keeper in Shanhui City, and has been at the peak of Tier 3 for a long time.
At the age of forty, he is just in his prime, but like most professionals, he has reached his own threshold.
middle age crisis? Invisible ceiling? It's probably something similar, the feeling that no matter how hard you try, you can't take another step forward, and you can only watch the young people surpass themselves one by one.
Perhaps, if there is no accident, if you retire at the age of 40 or 50, you can count as long as you can live. The qualification of "explorer", the ticket to the outer domain, is a life-saving straw for people like him.
In the fourth level, one must have one's own "laws" and one's own rules.
It's not impossible to follow the path of others, but it also requires extremely outrageous accumulation. Generally speaking, it will be less difficult for professionals who follow their own path to enter the fourth level.
Lu Xinghui reckons that no matter how lucky he is, he will only have a chance to reach the fourth level when he is around fifty years old. At that time, all aspects of his body's functions have already seriously declined, and coupled with the accumulation of "natural abilities", I am afraid that this will be the end of his life. That's it.
A professional is always racing against time and life. He thought he was satisfied if he could live to be over fifty.
"Exotic paths, exotic rules"
His own bottleneck is a bottleneck caused by "already accumulated". If he changed the place, changed the rules, changed the road, bought some special products from the outer domain, and searched for the gods and secrets of the outer domain, he was instantly moved.
Even when he learned that the first round of testing was about to face regulation-level pollution, when his colleagues were shaken instantly, he
"If it's just the coercion of leftovers instead of direct attacks, professionals above the fourth level can generally resist. I have been at the third level for a long time. In theory, I can resist for a while, just for a minute."
Rule-level pollution, self-contained world and self-contained system, once it appears in a certain area, it is often large-scale pollution, meme-level pollution Many senior secret keepers who have been famous for a long time will die inexplicably, and they will not know who killed them until they die own.
When the news spread, he and other colleagues had an instant frying pan and complaining attitude, but he was able to understand the authorities' actions as a senior.
"This is equivalent to the official saying that they cannot resist that level of coercion. Going there, the risk is too high."
Ordinary followers can lower the threshold, but "explorers" who are the core of exploration operations must at least have the ability to live and act in various regions.
A team, a team, even a team, if the core personnel die inexplicably from an AOE (large-scale) attack, the whole team may have an accident.
But understanding does not mean approval, the coercion at the rule level is still too much pressure on him.
"Give it a try, in theory, it's possible for me to do it, if I'm in good shape"
Professionals are a collection of compound occupations, and individual ranks are not very meaningful. Many people who have accumulated enough second and third ranks are already stronger than fourth ranks.
Thinking that he had been stuck in the third level for six full years, even though his body had gone downhill earlier, Lu Xinghui still gritted his teeth.
".Injuries when I was young made me decline faster than expected, and my talents and abilities couldn't be suppressed."
As if he had been forced to the cliff, he had no choice but to take a gamble.
But sometimes, to try is to die
".Is this my end? It's really sad."
The pupils were already black and red, cracks opened directly from the fundus, and chips like broken glass kept scattering.
The world in front of me also began to change, as if a layer of skin had been torn from everything, revealing the true flesh and blood underneath.
His head was in pain at first, then it was numb, and then
"Nice music, is anyone singing?" Unknown joy permeated from every corner of the body.
Most of the epidermis of his body began to detach, and parts that looked like scales and feathers grew rapidly.
The pupils shattered into pieces, and the blood and black crystals fused together.
Around the ears, blood-colored cracks were unfolding, and the senior secret keeper opened his mouth wide, smiling all over his face, and something seemed to be crawling out from under the weird cracked teeth.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, he completely lost consciousness.
"Sealing class, hurry up! He mutates very quickly."
"The potion is a little weak and needs surgery. Well, let them hurry up."
"There is not enough manpower, let the next batch slow down, we will cure this batch first."
"Really, can you consider the upper limit of your ability?"
The chaotic voices echoed in the room, and the chains pulled back one after another were professional combat strength above the middle-level backbone.
It can be saved, of course it must be saved, but there is always
"Number 17 has completely mutated, completely out of control, and lost his sanity!"
". Eradication team! Deal with it as soon as possible, and the cleaning team is ready."
Although most of the losers are rescued, there are always people who think too highly of themselves and stop here.
If it weren't for the shortage of people in Outland, there might be only one chance to reform, and it shouldn't be so radical in the first place.
Of course, since all the necessary preparations have been made, and various crisis agreements have been signed, such unlucky people are destined to be very few, but this still makes people feel very heartbroken.
"Number 7! Number 7! Don't move!"
But at this time, a scream sounded in the monitoring room, and everyone noticed it.
Most of the time, when he fell to the ground and struggled, or was simply pulled out by the chain, the youngest-looking professional looked at everything around him in surprise.
He was already standing next to the "eye" and even tried to touch it.
And his whisper was amplified into the monitoring room, causing a moment of silence.
"Understood, why can't I move, I don't feel at all? Is it really activated?"
