Chapter 75 The Situation Is Serious

This time it was Gu Jiao and Juan's turn to be silent.

For young men and women who have always lived in ivory towers, it is always difficult to adapt when they are suddenly exposed to the darkness under the light.

However, Shen Xing did not have the problem of adaptation.

He had never imagined this era too well.

Rather, he was a little surprised that such things could be banned openly.

In his opinion, it would not be surprising if a world with advanced technology and powerful supernatural powers developed into a feudal era, slavery, or even a religious belief system.

"In addition to this banned weapon, there are many other dangerous weapons. Some members of the patrol department even found warriors wearing military full-coverage armor. In the previous head-on confrontations, the patrol department did not have any advantage." Nangong Jinyi said again, "Moreover, because we don't know how many students are controlled by nano weapons and their lives are threatened, we dare not act recklessly."

"In this case, is it still handed over to the patrol department to solve it?" Shen Xing asked.

"That's the rule." Gu Jiao interrupted, "The Patrol Department is actually a training ground. Unless a student dies, the federal garrison will not intervene no matter what happens."

"This rule is actually very cruel." Juan also sighed, "If the Patrol Department still fails to control it in the end and the Federation has to intervene, it must be at the cost of some students' lives."

Indeed, if the situation is really delayed to the point where the Patrol Department cannot solve it, then students must have died.

When it is possible to intervene and prevent it in advance, it is still standing by and watching. To some extent, it is contrary to the style of "forbidding student deaths and ensuring student safety."

"I really don't understand why." Gu Jiao sighed, "The situation is already so serious."

"Maybe, this is what the Human Federation wants us to learn." Shen Xing shrugged, "Human life is important, but the growth of the guardian is more important."

"."

After saying this, the three people present were silent.

Nangong Jinyi looked at Shen Xing with some surprise.

It seems that such words should not be said by people of this age.

"I'm just guessing." Shen Xing blinked at the gazes of the three people.

They all wondered if they were too indifferent.

However, when he was with his friends, he really didn't want to pretend.

This was a rare time to relax after practicing.

"Your guess may be correct." Nangong Jinyi said softly, "After knowing the situation, many members of the patrol department have great psychological pressure. Too many students have been controlled. We are worried that once the situation gets out of control, it will not be the casualties of one or two students. This pressure is actually different from what we thought before we joined."

It can be seen that Nangong Jinyi's mentality has also changed these days.

Originally, students joined the patrol department just for military merit points, for resources, or like her, for practical experience.

But now, they suddenly shoulder the safety of many peers.

This will indeed bring a certain impact to young students.

Even Nangong Jinyi, who has always given people the impression of a mature, elegant, and intellectual lady, cannot avoid it.

After all, she is only sixteen or seventeen years old.

"In this case, I will take a mission and try it out." Shen Xing suddenly said with a faint smile on his face, "I didn't plan to do the mission, but now that the situation is serious, I am also a member of the patrol department, so I will do my part."

"Now that you know the situation, are you still going to take the mission?" Nangong Jinyi seemed a little surprised, "Once you accept the mission, you can't give it up at will."

"I know, and I am also interested in those arms and weapons." Shen Xing said frankly, "According to the Human Federation's spoils of war agreement, the spoils on the battlefield can be distributed by the combatants themselves. These weapons will cost a lot of military merit points if they are taken to the trading market."

Yes, this is the main reason.

Other weapons are fine, Shen Xing is not short of military merit points, but the banned weapons such as the nano-scale human body control device can only be obtained in such missions at present.

Although it is banned in the Human Federation, what does it matter if it is used in another world.

Shen Xing is not a person who follows the rules.

"In that case, do you want to team up with me?" Nangong Jinyi suddenly invited. She lifted a strand of hair by her ear. Her bright eyes seemed to shine under the dazzling lights. She looked at Shen Xing and added with a chuckle, "Just consider it as helping me. I don't even want the spoils. I just hope to complete the task I took on."

"Can we still team up?" Shen Xing was a little surprised, then nodded, "Of course I have no problem."

Besides, I bought so many equipment from Nangong Jinyi before, and naturally it can't be offset by just inviting a meal.

When it comes to helping, there is always a back-and-forth relationship, and the friendship will be deep.

"The tasks of the Patrol Department can be completed by teaming up, as long as the person who takes the task first agrees. However, a temporary team must have at least four people, and I can only invite one more person." Nangong Jinyi explained, and finally glanced at Gu Jiao.

"Why are you looking at me? It's not time to practice bones yet. It's all my fault." Gu Jiao said unhappily, looking a little frustrated.

Juan next to him sighed and spread his hands towards Shen Xing, saying that he was not ready for bone training either.

"I do have a candidate, but I have to ask first." Shen Xing was naturally talking about An Yiyi.

She registered for the bone training period a few hours earlier than she did, and she must have been invited to the picket department.

At this time, a message is sent directly.

An Yiyi happened to be online and agreed without hesitation.

So, the team's matter was settled.

"It's been a big help." Nangong Jinyi seemed to be really relieved, her expression relaxed a lot, and she even asked playfully, "Otherwise, should I treat you to this meal?"

"That's not possible. I just made a huge sum of money, so why don't you give me a chance to show off?" Shen Xing said with a smile.

"Lao Hu, do you feel that these two suddenly seem very familiar to each other?" Gu Jiao looked at Shen Xing and Nangong Jinyi suspiciously.

"Let me see, hmm, it seems to be true." Juan nodded seriously, but the gossipy look on his face had already given him away.

However, this level of teasing was completely meaningless to Shen Xing.

Nangong Jinyi did the same. She just smiled faintly, picked up a piece of pastry, and stuffed it elegantly into Gu Jiao's mouth: "Be good, eat more if someone treats you."

"Ouch." Gu Jiao's face turned red for a while.

Because she looked the petite among the three of them, she was usually the one who was fed and fed, but now in front of her boyfriend, she suddenly became extremely embarrassed.

It made several people laugh.

They didn't discuss the topic of the mission anymore, but talked about other interesting things.

Shen Xing also had a good taste of the specialties here. Although it looked a bit cyberpunk, the food was quite normal. At most, there were pastries made to look like high-energy batteries, and what looked like some kind of lubricating oil. The drinks taste good.

It wasn't until after eating and drinking that the four of them walked out chatting and laughing that they realized that it was raining lightly outside.

"Where the sun doesn't shine, rain can come in." Shen Xing raised his head and looked up. He could only see tall and dense buildings, not even the sky.

"I quite like the rain." Nangong Jinyi came up from behind, also raising her head, letting the drizzle hit her fair and smooth face and the tips of her hair.

His eyes seemed to be in a trance.

In the rain, she was a little less elegant than usual, but more kind.

She is more like a girl next door than a wealthy lady.

Shen Xing said nothing and admired it silently for a while.

It wasn't until Nangong Jinyi turned her head and met Shen Xing's gaze. After being stunned for a while, she looked away and suddenly returned to her usual appearance. She said with a slight smile: "I have already given the relevant information about the mission." I’ve sent it to you. If you need help with equipment or anything else, just let me know.”

"Don't worry, I won't be polite if you need it." Shen Xing smiled and nodded, "However, I can only be responsible for the combat part."

"That's enough. The mission I took over was just a lower-level armed force. A team of four should be able to win it," Nangong Jinyi said.

"Then I'll go back and make some preparations." Shen Xing looked behind him and raised his chin, "I won't be a lightbulb for them two."

"Light bulb? What an old metaphor." Nangong Jinyi turned around and looked at it, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Then it's time for me, the light bulb, to go back. I'll let you know when I'm ready with the information."

"Okay." Shen Xing nodded.

Then after saying hello to Juan, he left calmly.

Next, I have to go to Xiaoling’s place to have a look.

On the way, I also checked the mission information sent by Nangong Jinyi.

This is an armed force called "Spider Web", which mainly operates in the twelfth district. It is here that the main members may have thirty to fifty people, and they have certain weapons and equipment, and it has been determined. They controlled no fewer than thirty people, all of whom were students from the martial arts academy, through nanoscale human control devices, thereby gathering a large amount of resources.

"Just such a low-level armed force has controlled more than thirty martial arts students. It seems that this situation is indeed quite serious." Shen Xing's eyes became more serious.

Although I was going for the nanoscale human control device, I also wanted to experience different fighting styles.

He has never experienced fighting with such an armed force, but it should be different from fighting in another world.
