Chapter 791 "No One Understands A Guang Better than Me" (1/2)

On the coast of death, on the floating dock paved with steel plates, a group of construction workers wearing work clothes were coming ashore one after another with shovels and tool boxes.

They were Imperial Expeditionary Force soldiers who had been stationed at Youtiao Port.

Although the alliance would occasionally take them out for target practice, it was obvious that the players had no intention of throwing them on the front line from the beginning.

And thankfully so.

When they walked to the shore, many people vomited on the spot, their faces turned pale, and their hands and feet were numb.

The reason for this was naturally seasickness, but half of it was also due to the tragic situation on the beach.

I saw swollen and mutilated corpses scattered randomly on the beach, some were blue, green, and some were human. Although the bodies in the trenches have been moved away by the players, some mutants who died in the sea were washed up on the beach one after another by the waves.

Not just corpses, but also alien species wandering over based on the smell.

Some outrageously large sea crabs were the first to smell the rotten smell, and they gnawed on the corpses, devouring the buffet.

Swallowing saliva and stomach acid, everyone moved their stiff legs to the shore.

However, at this moment, a gunshot suddenly rang out on the shore.

"boom--!"

The sudden sound of gunshots startled everyone, and the muscle memory formed by training made them lie down subconsciously until they saw a blue jacket wearing an exoskeleton coming towards them.

"Don't be nervous, it's me."

Carrying a shotgun, he walked to the pier, waved his hand with a hesitant smile, and then pointed to the row of floating piers under everyone's feet not far away.

I saw a mutated sea crab that was more than one meter tall lying in the waterlogged sand pit, with half of its head completely shattered by a shotgun bullet.

Because the color of the carapace was so similar to the beach, everyone who was focused on the corpses on the shore didn't notice it.

Looking at these frightened soldiers of the expeditionary force, he said with a wasted half-year-old smile.

"Watch your feet. The pliers on this thing are very powerful. It only takes one click to break your legs... We have already spent enough money on you, and we don't want to help you install another prosthetic leg."

Seeing that no one was talking, he stopped talking nonsense and went straight to the point.

"Your task is very simple, which is to clean up the bodies on the beach, drag them together to a place about five kilometers away from the coastline, and then burn them with the fuel we provide you..."

"The military strength of the Torch Church in the nearby area has been destroyed by us, so there should be no danger. Of course, I can only say that it should be. After all, anything can happen on the battlefield. You have to keep your eyes open and be prepared. Be prepared for any possible danger.”

"This is the situation. If you have any questions, it's best to ask them now. If you don't have any, you can start working."

After saying these words, I waited for a while, and when I saw no one said anything, I was about to turn around and leave.

But at this moment, a young man raised his hand fearfully.

"I have a question."

His voice was timid, as was the case with most Ratfolk when communicating with them.

Even though he was half a year old, he didn't care and waved his right hand.

"Then ask quickly."

The young man swallowed and spoke quickly.

"Why not just let those crabs eat them..."

In his opinion, there is no need to worry about these things. Anyway, the crabs can be eaten cleanly by leaving them alone.

Hearing this whimsical idea, Half Year Old laughed out loud and said in a teasing tone.

"When you feed them, guess what their number will be?"

Why do these NPCs look more like NPCs than me?

After saying that, he was about to turn around, but the young man whispered again.

"What if we get it farther away from the pier? Dig a puddle there and bury the body in it... maybe we can also lure the mutated sea crabs here."

It wasn't that he thought it was troublesome to move the corpse, but he mainly thought that the crabs were edible and it would be a pity to drive them away.

When they first arrived at Youtiao Port, they picked up the crabs that had been beaten to death by the Alliance soldiers and grilled them with the Alliance soldiers.

Hearing this, Half Year Old Wasted glanced at the young man in surprise.

Good guy.

Are the NPCs in this game so real? !

But having said that, it was a really good idea after he thought about it carefully in his head.

Of course, the main reason was that he also wanted to improve the food, so he walked up with a smile and patted the young man on the shoulder.

"Brother, what's your name?"

The young man said tremblingly.

"Dan..."

"Then I'll call you Adan, haha, the future crab tycoon Adan."

As he spoke, he wasted no time in throwing a bunch of keys with license plate tags into his hand. Then he thought of something and pushed the thing in his hand over, and continued with a smile.

"You've got the truck, and these guys are at your disposal...and this shotgun and walkie-talkie. I want your crab farm to be at least five kilometers from here, and if you're attacked, call us."

The young man named Dan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with ecstasy.

"Don't worry, sir, leave it to me. I will make sure you are satisfied!"

From the smile on the face of the Alliance soldier, he seemed to see an opportunity to change his destiny!

If this thing is done well, maybe I can stay...

The half-year-old man didn't care about the delay. He smiled and made a "go get busy" gesture, and then walked back to the shore.

Standing on the shore and waiting, I saw him coming and asked.

"Is it okay to do this?"

Half a year old said with a wasted smile.

"What's the problem? It's good to use the mutant's body waste. Don't be so serious, haha."

Maybe when the war is over, this mutated sea crab will become a local specialty.

Seeing his playful smile, Yi Dengtian made a helpless expression.

"Fine."

He didn't think it mattered, as long as it didn't affect the delivery of supplies.

…

The dusk hanging in the sky gradually fell.

While the expeditionary forces from Youtiao Port were landing one after another, Duke Nihak, who was staying aboard the South China Sea Alliance fleet and refused to disembark, finally hesitantly came ashore after seeing General Li Minghui go ashore.

After all, he is also the Grand Duke of the empire, so he cannot be underestimated.

It's not just that.

As the Grand Duke of the Empire, now that the expeditionary force has finally landed on the territory of the Torch Church, it would be a bit unreasonable for him not to express his feelings.

But what he didn't expect was that the situation on the shore was even more tragic than he imagined. The thick smell of blood did not dissipate even if the sea breeze blew for a whole day.

Standing on the undulating steel plate, Duke Nihak felt as if his nasal cavity was soaked in blood, and his calves could not help but feel weak.

Is this the front line...

His Adam's apple moved up and down, swallowing the almost dry saliva, and his pupils showed uncontrollable panic.

Although he had seen the true strength of the alliance on the holographic screen, the death he saw through the screen was far less profound than what he felt at the moment.

These guys are not human...

Whether it's those lying on the beach or those guys camping on the shore...

They are all devils!

Pushing away the guard who came to help him, he moved towards the shore with stiff steps.

Not far away is the Alliance camp, with tents lined up on the edge of the beach, and lights on the sentry towers.

He had a glimmer of hope in his heart, expecting that the camp would be filled with wounded people, expecting that this battle would hurt both the Torch and the Alliance, and expecting that the Empire would stand on top of the world from now on. However, the moment he walked into the camp, all hope All wasted.

The soldiers sat on the ground where they had fought, and raised bonfires where the enemy had fallen.

They didn't care about the bullet marks and blood stains on the ground at all, they just sat in front of the bonfire, even chatting and laughing, roasting meat and singing songs.

Not even just Union soldiers.

He saw with his own eyes that several soldiers from the expeditionary force were also sitting together with them. Among them, there were also people who knew musical instruments, impromptuly playing the piccolo of Borneo and beating drums made of animal skins and bones, giving the hoarse and majestic sound Accompanied by singing.

“…the gears of heaven fell into the furnace.”

"Boiling molten steel splashed from the furnace."

"The undying natural disasters never cease."

"We will remake the realm of mortals!"

"..."

"The hound of chaos was decapitated."

"The flames of punishment are the home of lies."

"If confounding right and wrong is the way to heaven..."

"Then let's turn it upside down first!"

He couldn't understand what those people were singing, but he felt that the blood flowing in his veins was surging with the melody.

A trace of fear suddenly arose in his heart, especially when he saw the soldiers of the expeditionary force humming along softly.

The lyrics seemed to contain some kind of treasonous curse...

Someone spotted him and pointed over with a smile. When he came to his senses, he was pulled to sit down together in front of the bonfire.

The two guards who were following him were also pulled to the bonfire.

"...Be happy, don't look so grim, the war is about to end!"

"Although you still have a lot of problems to worry about, at least now we can celebrate our common victory..." Murderous Dagger smiled and patted Duke Nihak's shoulder, "This is a victory for all mankind, not just for us. It belongs to you too.”

"...Stop, stop talking nonsense!"

Duke Nihak's eyes widened, like a mouse whose tail had been stepped on, and he was still very old.

"We have no problem, we are very good! The problem is you, it is you who brought those stinking things... to the wasteland to Borneo! Before you came to our place, we were very good very!"

His beard was trembling with anger, his lips were blue, and he didn't even realize the contradiction in his words - he said before that it was very good now, but later he said that it was very good before the alliance came.

Looking at this living clown, the players laughed out loud, and Brother Shadagger smiled again and patted him on the shoulder.

"Of course you are very good. People buried in the soil can't talk."

He still vaguely remembered that when they caught this guy, he was happily alive in bed.

Without waiting for the glaring Duke to retort, Shadagger poured him a glass of wine.

"Come, come, drink and eat meat. Today is a day worth celebrating. Don't hurt your friendship over trivial matters."

Looking at the meaty legs stuffed into his hands, Nihak couldn't help but think of the corpses on the ground. His face turned slightly pale and he asked in a trembling voice.

"What kind of meat is this?"

Seeing his frightened look, Sha Dagger immediately knew that he was thinking wrong, so he laughed and said.

"We just made monster meat. It tastes a bit like bear meat...try it?"

Seeing the provocative look, Duke Nihak didn't want to be looked down upon, so he took a bite with a dark face.

The aroma of barbecue spread between his lips and teeth, and the oily texture made his eyes light up.

Um……

This tastes surprisingly good?

Although the people in this alliance were a bit rough, he had to admit that these guys still had their own cooking skills.

The players saw that the Duke was no longer noisy, so they continued the banquet talking and laughing.

Murderous Dagger was laughing and chatting with his teammates, when suddenly a light blue icon popped up on the VM.

"Lao Bai, call me if you have something to do. He's probably on a mission. You continue to eat while I take the first step."

After saying hello to his teammates with a smile, he picked up his helmet, put it on, and walked to the command tent deep in the camp.

When he opened the door curtain and went in, he saw Lao Bai and Fang Chang standing next to the command table, meticulously staring at the map spread out on the table.

It was rare to see two people showing such serious expressions. Murderous Dagger immediately guessed that a big job was coming, and an excited expression appeared on his face.

"Come to work?"

"Yeah, and it's a big job..." Fang Chang nodded, holding his chin, and summarized the information he just heard from the Guards Corps.

To put it simply, the middle and high-level leaders of the Torch Church had a mole leading the way. Since he was not on the "evacuation list", they hoped to surrender to the alliance for a chance of leniency.

Murderous Dagger thought that this guy was really unlucky.

Generally speaking, since everyone knows that this list exists, they have to be on the list anyway.

It turned out that this person was interesting, he knew about the list but was not on it.

But let’s not discuss how this guy got into this job. What confused him the most was another thing.

Are the top leaders of the Torch Church planning to run away?

These guys have been surrounded by them and become the bastards among them. Where the hell can they run away?

Is there any place on earth for them to stay?

Wait, could it be——

Seeing the stunned expression on Murderous Dagger's face, Fang Chang smiled lightly and said.

"It seems you realize it without me having to explain."

Murderous Dagger nodded and said solemnly.

"The Torch Church has a spaceship in its hands..."

Fang Chang: "..."

Lao Bai coughed dryly.

"What do they want the spacecraft to do...you have to think about it again."

Murderous Dagger was stunned for a moment.

"Ah? Then...where else can they run?"

"Actually, it's not impossible," Fang Chang said suddenly, "Maybe it's a spaceship, maybe a space station, or even a satellite or even a hard disk... But the possibility of them escaping directly in the spaceship is very small. I am more inclined to think that they intend to transmit the signal to the equipment in outer space through some kind of high-power transmitting device.”

There are a large number of spacecraft debris floating in the outer space of this planet, including some still-working satellites and even automatic weapons.

Due to the widespread application of nuclear fusion technology, the service life of many outer space equipment left over from the United Nations era is measured in centuries.

After a pause, he continued.

"If that's the case, I have reason to believe that they have completed the data transfer during the moment we were discussing. Don't forget, those guys don't have entities in the first place. They have already uploaded their data to the so-called The sanctuary.”

Murderous Dagger was stunned for a moment and said in confusion.

"Wouldn't that mean... there's no point in chasing after us now?"

"It's not meaningless. Although it may be unrealistic to intercept the migration of data, at least we can figure out where their data is sent, and..."

Staring at the map intently, Fang Chang continued speaking normally.

"Where exactly are our enemies?"

"Enemy..." Murderous Dagger didn't understand what he was saying, so he repeated the word incomprehensively.

Lao Bai looked at him and explained.

"Chang Fang and I agree that there may be other supporters behind the torch."

Murderous Dagger: "The other supporters are..."

Looking at Brother Shadagger who still knew nothing, Fang Chang said bluntly.

"Do you still remember the third update of the previous Beta0.6 version, the Nanmen II galaxy and the world of Gaia?"

"Damn it, you mean... the cake you planned to draw?" Sha Dian looked at him confused, "But isn't that the whole job..."

Fang Chang smiled faintly.

"Then you underestimate A Guang too much."

When everyone thinks it's a joke, it most likely isn't a joke.

He can be sure that the map five light years away has been completed, and it has been affecting the game world since Beat 0.6 version, but most people are not aware of it.

He is still not 100% sure that the torch is supported by the "Gaia Force", but he is 100% sure that the task in front of him is the first link between players and the new world-related task chain!

He could even assert that a similar opportunity might have appeared before, but no one triggered it.

It is precisely because of this that this mission flies directly to them like a straight ball.

Most of the events in this game seem to be isolated from each other, but in fact if you dig deeper, you can eventually find connections with each other!

He can confidently say that no one understands A Guang better than him!

After listening to Fang Chang's analysis, Killing Dagger also felt that it made sense, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

"In other words, our chance to establish a connection with the world five light years away lies in this mission? Wait, damn! If we fail, won't we miss the opportunity to open a new map?"

Fang Chang shook his head and said.

"That's not the case. Since the game team has made the map, they will definitely give players the opportunity to go. It's just that many tasks in this game are unique, and the opportunities given to each player are also limited. If we miss it this time, it should be triggered by other players next time."

"It's useless to analyze these now, let's get back to the mission itself."

Lao Bai coughed lightly, ended the topic that had gone off track, and continued to talk while looking at the map spread out on the table.

"...According to the intelligence of the Guards, the Torch Church's top brass are currently hiding in an underground facility called Shelter No. 20. The entrance to this shelter is located in an abandoned old-time industrial park. Like Shelter No. 182, it is a shelter that was abandoned for many years and then reopened. Therefore, it will not be difficult for us to break through the security system."

"The NPC who provided us with the intelligence is named Karen. We now have her biometric information, whether it is fingerprints, irises or measurements... cough, in short, she may have important information in her hands, including the whereabouts of the Torch Church's top brass, the supporters behind the Torch, and the information of the Perfect Lifeform Research Project. Therefore, our first priority is to ensure her safety, and then to suppress the entire research facility and seize control of Shelter No. 20."

"According to the coordinates provided by the Guards, this shelter is about 100 kilometers away from our landing point. One-third of the road in the middle is still hilly, and the road condition is very poor, so I am afraid that not much heavy equipment can be invested in this battle."

Fang Chang nodded.

"It's a better choice to use a Viper transport plane to quickly break in... After all, that place belongs to the Kingdom of Heaven, so a quick battle would be better."

"I think the same as you," Lao Bai grinned and continued with a serious look, "In addition, the Guards Regiment reminded us that we must be careful of friendly forces... This research institute is very close to the 310,000th Corps of the Legion, only about 50 kilometers. If we make too much noise and let them realize that there may be treasures there, it's hard to say whether they will interfere and mess things up. We must not let the Torch researchers fall into their hands."

The Weilantes are also the holders of the perfect life form technology, and the clones that grow eight times faster are the product of this project.

In fact, it's not just the Legion, they also have to be careful of the Academy.

The former is at least active in the open, while the latter is active in the dark most of the time. It's hard to say whether they have already known something.

After all, although it is true that it is the Alliance that has been fighting with the Torch, it may not be the Alliance that knows the Torch best.

Long before the birth of the Alliance, the Academy had already noticed the crisis emerging in Haiya Province, and it was they who "incited" the Alliance to enter the Jinhe City area.

"So there is no air support available?" Killing Dagger said solemnly.

Fang Chang: "Air support is no problem, and a small amount of artillery bombardment should be no problem, but saturation barrage coverage may have to be cautious, which is equivalent to telling the legion that we have a large-scale operation in the local area... It would be best if we can solve the problem in a low-key manner. If we must use it, try to wait until we retreat or finish it."

"That's basically it," Lao Bai nodded, looking at Killing Dagger and continued, "In addition, according to the information provided by the informant, there are the judgment team of the Torch Tribunal and the Holy Light Knights loyal to the First Temple stationed near the facility. The former is less than a company in size, but the latter is about a battalion and is equipped with a large number of high-tech weapons."

"In addition, our drones also discovered a mutant force in an abandoned urban area not far from the facility. The team is over a thousand strong... It is suspected to be a mutant tribe that has withdrawn from the Ten Peaks Mountain. Once the key facilities of the Torch Church are attacked, there is no reason for them not to rush over to support. "Therefore, I plan to divide the troops into two parts. One part will be a feint force, carrying light equipment and airdropping to the vicinity of the abandoned city in a Overlord transport plane, launching a surprise attack on the local mutant forces, and trying to attract the attention of the Torch as much as possible. The other part will take a Viper transport plane and directly break into the entrance of Shelter No. 20, and cooperate with the insider to take down the entire facility!" "This is a good idea!" Killing Dagger nodded with bright eyes, but saw that both of them were staring at him, and he was stunned for a moment, "Uh... Why are you looking at me like that?" Speaking of such an important combat meeting, why was he alone? Where are the other brothers? Lao Bai and Fang Chang looked at each other, and finally the latter walked in front of Killing Dagger and placed his hands solemnly on his shoulders. "...We intend to entrust this difficult and glorious feint mission to your battalion!"

Murderous Dagger: "..."

Zhao!
