After Zhang Heng got the starfish watch, the time of the day changed from 24 hours to 4 o'clock. Every time at zero o'clock, no matter where he was, he would enter the still world on time. has been verified many times.
And one month later, when he stepped into this mysterious game, the law of time on his body was still in effect, and the extra 24 hours would also be converted according to the time flow rate of the current copy, and accumulated into his game time inside.
But the premise is that he is always playing the game alone.
From the unnamed deserted island on the equator to the Caribbean in the 18th century, Zhang Heng experienced the first four rounds of the entire copy of the game in which he was the only player. It was not until this time that he was accidentally matched with the other six players in the training camp of the Apollo Project. players.
Therefore, Zhang Heng didn't know what would happen when the starfish in his hand reached zero. Before that, he had been choosing solo queue to avoid such a situation.
As usual, Zhang Heng entered the dungeon at 11:55 in the middle of the night, which is only five minutes away from midnight. According to the flow rate of the dungeon, these five minutes are 20 hours, and now it is almost 20 hours since he entered the dungeon. The starfish in your hand is about to point to zero.
Zhang Heng told the trainer around him that he wanted to go to the bathroom, and the trainer kindly reminded him that he could actually use the urine bag equipped with the space suit to get used to the feeling of peeing in space in advance.
Zhang Heng expressed his gratitude for the proposal, but he still insisted on going to the bathroom. No matter what happened, he didn't want to carry this 70-jin equipment, so the trainer had to spend another 15 minutes to help him put his body on his back. The spacesuit was taken off.
After Zhang Heng pulled his right leg out of the space suit, he looked at the starfish in his hand again. It was less than half a minute away from zero in the real world. He also noticed that Zhen Xi who was not far away had been secretly peeping at him. , even the fat man beside Zhen Xi kept peeking at him.
However, Zhang Heng didn't have time to pay attention to this kind of thing for the time being. When Starfish's second hand pointed to 24 o'clock, everyone in the training room stopped their movements in the next second, and the expressions on their faces were completely frozen. The world became a huge wax museum.
This is also the result that is most in line with Zhang Heng's speculation. He has tested it with p-games before. According to the principle of contact recovery, he can run stand-alone games on the computer during static time, but not games that require networking.
Although it cannot be explained by science, the mysterious game he is participating in is still just a game in essence, so the copies that belonged to him before can still run in the static world, but his game time has been extended, and After joining other players, the game becomes a networked state, and when it reaches zero, it stops with the world.
But before Zhang Heng had time to do anything, he received another system prompt in his ear.
[alarm! ! ! alarm! ! ! The target copy is abnormal! Serious error in time category!]
[Error reporting...]
[Second-level permission is enabled, the review has failed, suspected cheating by players has been detected, and emergency plans have been activated...]
[Open the parallel copy, this copy is the transitional copy of the Apollo program training camp, the number of players is 1, the mission goal is not, the time is 240 days, please pay attention to the players]
Zhang Heng frowned, and the next moment the Beatles' "yesterday" was automatically playing in his ears, and at the same time, his eyes were suddenly plunged into darkness again.
This is not the kind of darkness where the lights are turned off in the room, but the darkness where you can't see anything after depriving all light sources.
Zhang Heng only encountered this kind of situation every time he first logged in to the game, allowing him to focus all his attention on the system notification sound next to his ears, and it was the first time that it appeared in the middle of the game, a bit like Is reloading in online games.
Fortunately, the darkness didn't last too long. Zhang Heng opened his eyes again when Paul McCartney sang "The past comes to mind...".
He is no longer in NASA's training room, and there are no other players around him.
In fact, he is now standing on a huge runway, listening to the roar of aircraft engines, and a jet plane flies over his head.
Zhang Heng saw a blond beauty not far away waving to him, and looked a little anxious, "Jim doesn't like newcomers running around. If you see enough, let's go quickly. The people in the laboratory are still waiting."
"Lab?" Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah, all the other students from your school have already passed, so you are the only one who is missing." The blond beauty said, "Also... can you get off the runway first, or it will be bad if you are seen by the person in charge at the airport. "
"Sorry." Zhang Heng walked down the runway, and he didn't want to compete with the plane whose head was stronger. He had encountered the dungeon alarm once before, and it was in the novice dungeon that the time law on him took effect for the first time. , also triggered the dungeon alarm, but after the second-level authority started, the review was canceled through the report, and the error was also permanently removed from the judgment sequence.
Zhang Heng once speculated that this had something to do with the mysterious old man in Tang suit. Since the latter chose him to participate in the game, he must know what will happen. The so-called secondary authority is obviously to deal with this kind of thing, but in the multiplayer copy For unknown reasons, the secondary authority was invalidated, and the game system judged that he was suspected of cheating.
In a sense, this is not a false accusation.
Because in the static world, the only person who can move is him, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is invincible. Shen Xixi and her team are helpless against monsters like Xaviercha, but in the static world, Zhang Heng can only use A utility knife easily eliminates this threat.
In the same way, he didn't need much effort to deal with the other six players.
The system was obviously aware of this, and in order to protect other players, temporarily opened a transitional dungeon and threw him in, because the process was so rushed that this dungeon didn't even set any tasks, but Zhang Heng didn't know if the dungeon itself was like Su What's the danger like in the Finnish war, so he asked the blonde, "What time is it?"
"Time? Well, 10:35." The blond beauty looked at the watch on her hand.
"What about the date?"
"February 12."
"What year?"
"Are you kidding? It's 1955, of course." The blond beauty said, "Hey, I don't know if you MIT students like to show off with similar weird moves, but I need to remind you that if we If you are late, your internship at the Glenn Research Center will be cancelled."
