My Players Keep Grinding in the Post-Apocalyptic World

Chapter 369: Formation and incomplete talent

"Zhao Mo just let him go like that?"

When Zhao Rulong heard the news from his confidant, he was somewhat incredulous.

He had arranged a charge of treason for the Scourge Base, many of which seemed plausible but would require time to investigate before a conclusion could be drawn. Even if these people could not be dealt with in the end, at least their actions would fail and they would be listed as key observation targets.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Mo, a level 2 administrator of the Human Alliance, actually let them report and then... let them go.

At this time, the confidant looked a little hesitant, but still said: "Administrator Zhao Mo also asked me to bring you a message..."

"What?"

"Let you... take care of yourself."

Bang!

Zhao Rulong slapped the stone table, and the stone table, which had just been replaced, broke again.

The dark-skinned housekeeper came over and began to clean up the debris skillfully.

"What benefits did he give to the Human Alliance? Why does he always side with them? In this central city... Are the words of the Cross Church so insignificant?"

Zhao Rulong was furious.

In the central city, no matter which department it is, they will give mysterious a little face. After all, he has a big family and a lot of people in various departments. No one can say for sure whether he will come to mysterious for help.

However, unexpectedly, several plans against the Scourge Base failed in succession, all because of the favoritism of the Human Alliance.

"There must be one of their people among the top leaders of the Human Alliance! Find out who it is!"

"yes!"

The confidants left the Zhao Mansion and used the mysterious information network. As the inheritance with the best relationship with Ye Ren, they often grasp the information faster than others.

After the people below left, Zhao Rulong felt extremely depressed.

His carefully planned attack was so easily resolved that the other party didn't even feel anything...

"Do I look like a clown?"

At this moment, this sentence suddenly popped up in his mind, but he shook his head hard to get rid of this depressing thought.

"We need to think differently..."

"The clowns in Central City only get 4-5 thousand crystals a year, but I get nothing."

Zhao Rulong was stunned for a moment, feeling angry at his absurd thoughts.

He took two deep breaths.

"No, I can't be so angry. It's normal to fail. No one can guarantee that everything will go smoothly forever. I can find other ways..."

Zhao Rulong discovered that something was not quite right with his mind, so he took out his staff and, using the small pointed tip at the base, began to write the word “静” (quiet) on another stone table, stroke by stroke.

"A truly strong person does not care about the gains and losses of the moment, but the overall situation."

...

After writing the word "静" 100 times in a row.

Bang!

He smashed the stone table into pieces with his staff.

"No, why should I favor them?"

"I have to find someone to stay with him today!"

Because the Mysterious and Calamity Bases had just signed a peace agreement not long ago, and there was a warning from Level 2 Administrator Zhao Mo that he could not take any action, and neither could the people of the Mysterious inheritance.

"Assassination and kidnapping, who can compare to Nightblade?"

"A mere 4th level beginner, can you dodge the attack of a 4th level intermediate top assassin?"

He has been busy these days. Following Wu Ke's lead, he found the location of the branch base of the Natural Disaster Base in the central city. He also deployed spies to monitor this area.

Zhao Rulong has a deep hatred for the natural disaster base.

He killed his cousin Zhao Rujiao and his daughter's original body. Now he can only walk with a cyborg body. He also broke his two secret balls, greatly reducing his strength.

This hatred has already been formed and cannot be reconciled!

Zhao Hongwu tried to reconcile with the natural disaster base from the perspective of mysterious inheritance, but Zhao Rulong tried to reconcile with the natural disaster base from the perspective of his family... and he couldn't accept it.

"Dad, I'm going out!"

Zhao Sisi, dressed in fancy clothes, walked out carrying a bag. When Zhao Rulong saw this, he clenched his fists again.

Because his eyes followed the slight gap in the bag and saw... a large number of toys, of exaggerated sizes!

Ever since being resurrected through a bionic body, Zhao Sisi has been like this, sleeping during the day, staying out all night, and having more fun than anyone else!

She’s almost as old as her mother when she was young!

"It's all your fault. You've ruined my daughter!"

"Ji Qi, bring their lord back to me!"

High-end warfare often only requires the simplest approach.

... ...

Central city sub-base.

After preparing the plan, Shadow Guard 2 did not stay and directly took the Red Devil aircraft to the Eastern battlefield, where he was more needed.

"The fifth-level domainer is already next to the player... but why can't I find him? Hidden skills?"

After Cheng Shaofeng heard what Zhao Mo said, Shadow Guard 1 immediately began a carpet search, going around every corner of the sub-base and checking every player, but no strangers were found.

You have to know that the players are clones. Wearing smart watches, a green dot can be displayed on the map, and it has the scanning function of large communication base stations. In theory, as long as other people enter his base, they can definitely be scanned out.

If she steals the player's smartwatch and disguises herself, it will be instantly recognized as not the player's soul, and a warning will be issued to the Scourge Base.

But...the female fifth-level domainer that Zhao Mo mentioned was not found.

"Strange... Did he go out with the players?"

Cheng Shaofeng decided to wait until night and check again, otherwise he would be very uneasy about a strong man lurking beside him.

The simplified multi-structure energy shield of the sub-base will take another day to complete. When the shield is put down, no one except the players can pass through, and fifth-level domainers will not be able to sneak in.

But... the opponent took advantage of the time difference and entered his sub-base in advance, which would make Cheng Shaofeng very uncomfortable.

"Players can talk about anything... What if she hears some information about the game, skills, levels, and Earth? Wouldn't the secret of the Scourge Base be exposed?"

If only one or two people were talking about these things, it wouldn't alert others, and they might even think it was some kind of codeword. But with so many people talking nonsense, as long as the fifth-level domainer is not a fool, he will definitely find out that there is something wrong with their base!

It’s not like there are no games in this world!

VR games are very developed!

What if they figure out that he's carrying a treasure and then target him

That's level five.

Cheng Shaofeng couldn't imagine how he would respond if the other party opened the territory directly inside his sub-base.

"No, I have to find her out! Before that... disable the real-time translation function on players' watches!"

Players now communicate with people in this world by relying on the real-time translation function of smart watches. When they speak, the smart watch will translate it into the local language and broadcast it, and their own voices will be covered up.

When listening to other people speak, the smart watch translates in real time and transmits the information directly to the player's nerves.

If it is banned, players will speak Chinese again.

"I hope she hasn't discovered anything yet..."

Just after the Red Devil aircraft left the Central City branch base, some distorted light appeared on an open space next to the branch base, as if a transparent jelly-like object was approaching.

"Haha~ No reaction? With such low defense, it's easy for him to pass by."

The twisted jelly makes sounds that only it can hear.

The person who came was Ji Cha’s uncle, Ji Qi.

He has been famous for a long time, and his appearance is elusive, but for some reason, he is still not as famous as his big brother, a martial arts practitioner. Although his strength is not outstanding, he has been in the high-end circle of young ladies for many years...

He received a bounty from Zhao Rulong and came here to kidnap a fourth-level junior professional.

For him... it's not a difficult thing.

Assassins are best at sneak attacks and duels. Any profession that fails to discover the Night Blade professional in advance will be at a great disadvantage!

After activating the skill, you gain the passive attribute of insight, which greatly improves your mobility and perception. In addition, the invisibility-breaking attack has extremely high explosive power, and one move is enough to cripple opponents of the same level!

If you are luckier, it won't be a problem to kill someone of the same level with one move.

The best way to deal with Night Blade professional assassins is to use items or formations that can restrain their invisibility. Obviously... these items do not exist in this simple little base.

"It seems that Brother Rulong made a lot of money from the 1 million crystals this time."

He moved quickly, preparing to observe inside the base... find the target person, then strike with thunder, kidnap the person and run away.

Once he catches someone, he can become invisible along with the person, and it hardly affects the speed. It's not easy for others to catch him.

Although he was confident of victory, his experience as an assassin made him cautious.

And this caution... indeed made him discover a slight difference.

"The pebbles on this stream... are not right. There is a faint energy flowing, and the flow rate of the water is not right either. It seems that something is interfering with the flow of water. Haha~ I see. Is it a chain trap? Stepping on the pebbles will trigger the trap. If I accidentally walk into the water, I will fall into another trap... There is something, but not much."

He sneered.

"It turns out that there are some unexpected defenses in this ordinary space. If a careless assassin were to step on it by accident..."

"But I, Ji Qi, am not a reckless man like my brother! No matter how complicated the trap is, it will not escape my insight!"

He chose to walk along the rockery on the other side.

Buzz!

Hundreds of ice swords buried underground flew out, and the violent ice energy surged, freezing him directly on the spot!

The jelly was broken, revealing Ji Qi with wide eyes inside.

"Phantom Slash, Break!"

Two balls of energy exploded from Ji Qi's hands, and the two daggers hidden in his sleeves flipped out. He swung them quickly, breaking all the ice around him!

But the hundreds of ice swords floating in the air were still continuously emitting ice energy, locking onto him!

"Damn it! The sword formation here is so deep in the ambush!"

Only then did he realize that the pebbles on the other side of the pool and the waves on the bottom of the water were all feints, and the real killing intent was the ice sword formation buried deep underground!

This magic sword inheritance's control formation!

"But... that's all. I hid behind the rockery, and the formation couldn't track me..."

He ran over quickly. Although he was exposed at this time, as long as he escaped the lock, he could hide in the darkness again and continue to complete the mission.

The panic caused here can actually create a smoke bomb effect, and then he can go around it and quickly accomplish the mission target.

He walked to the back of the rockery to hide his aura, and indeed escaped the lock of the ice sword formation. The huge ice swords were invincible within the range of the formation, and they fell down again.

"Huh~ The person who set the trap has some skills and is slightly proficient in psychology, but he is far inferior to me in terms of hard power. I don't need to be afraid of him!"

As he analyzed this, the rockery behind him slowly opened its arms towards him...

...

Wu Jie was counting the accounts in the Central City branch base when he suddenly heard crackling sounds outside, mixed with screams, and was stunned.

Turn on the smart watch, open the address book, and find the only friend in the thigh group.

Wu Jie: "Brother Feng... It seems that some unidentified people have come to divide the base. I'm so scared. What should I do now?"

At this time, Shadow Guard 2 also sensed that the trap he had set was triggered. He glanced at the communication tower image over there and pondered for a moment.

Cheng Shaofeng: "Can you pick up corpses?"

Wu Jie: “?”

From Shadow Guard 2's perspective, the entire central city sub-base is filled with intricate traps!

Once a non-player creature enters, the trap will be triggered until the enemy is killed or trapped.

The traps inside are interconnected and endless, and are extremely hidden.

Shadow Guard 2 touched his chest, where a golden ball of light was embedded.

Simulation Talent - Light of Life

The fourth-level talent of the Ranger.

They are the ones who are best at inheriting formations. Not only will they impose a powerful buff on friendly forces within the formation, they also have a powerful formation linkage and stacking ability, allowing various formations to be integrated together and concealed under life energy, making it impossible for people of the same level to see through the composition of the formation. Only by finding the tree blessed by the light of life that he planted in the central city base can they crack his formation and restore his trap to its original state.

Otherwise... unless you are a fifth-level realm master, you will have to take two big beatings if you come!

"Unfortunately... I only simulated half of the effect of the talent. The buff that greatly increased friendly forces within the formation is gone."

This is also the flaw of Shadow Guard's simulation talent, which can only simulate part of the effects.

Half an hour later.

Wu Jie found Ji Qi, who was frozen into an ice cube and still twitching unconsciously in the pond.

"Tsk tsk~Brother Feng is not lying to me!"

"But... this thing is still alive, what should we do with it?"

Wu Ke also received the news from Wu Jie half an hour ago. He rushed over with the players. Just by looking at the equipment and characteristics of the opponent, he locked onto the sect of the uninvited guest.

"Why would a professional from the Night Blade heritage attack us?"

"And it was chosen not long after we returned from the Human Alliance..."

"Coincidence or design?"

He shook his head. "At any time, we must first rule out coincidences... Then who designed this? Was it aimed at the lord? Or was it aimed at our base's inventory?"

This may require the person below to wake up and speak up to find out.

But looking at the unconscious Night Blade Level 4 professional in front of him, Wu Ke suddenly had an interesting idea.
