Seventh traitor
When he saw the news of Xiao Wu, Xu Yuheng not only narrowed his pupils, but also quickly checked the information it had sent to him.
It's just that he never imagined that this seventh traitor...
He even knew it!
"Second brother, now the traitors already know what they have exposed, what should we do now?"
The little robot emerged from his communicator.
It looked at Xu Yuheng with a pair of electronic eyes, and asked anxiously.
Xu Yuheng gritted his teeth.
Today, the fact that he and Bai Feng went to the military camp was originally done very secretly, but unexpectedly, the traitor would find out.
he was careless...
Will these stinky rats in the gutter continue to act after they know their plans are exposed
But...that's fine.
Xu Yuheng's face relaxed a little, at least now that he knew who the seventh traitor was, and he could take the initiative to reveal his faults, it was worth it.
At the same time, he also felt a little heavy.
There are still three people who have not been exposed. If they are also hidden as deep as the seventh person, then this Lanyue City...
Xu Yuheng shook his head.
The plot setting of this game is quite brain-burning, and it even played a spy war. It is estimated that some high-end players will like it.
He thought so, and calmly said to Xiao Wu: "Don't panic, you continue to monitor, don't let go of the slightest clue, and find out the remaining three traitors as soon as possible."
As for whether the traitors will cancel the plan to blow up the circle... This is actually a great consideration of the decision-making ability of the organizer.
If it is cancelled, at least it can be ensured that no NPC will be injured or killed because of this incident, and they can catch the traitors who have surfaced one by one in the future.
Although it is a little more troublesome, it actually makes no difference to the players. After all, if you are too troublesome, you will not come to play this kind of character development game.
If the traitors fall behind, the task of guarding Lanyue City will most likely be completed.
And if it is not cancelled and the traitors continue to act, then they will naturally proceed according to the original plan.
That's the benefit of having first-hand information.
Even if it wasn't for the purpose of catching the remaining three people, they would have been able to catch people now. The power of artificial intelligence was vividly reflected in this incident.
Xu Yuheng smiled.
His family Xiaoli is still very smart, and he started the layout early and came up with such a weapon.
With Xiao Wu around, he should manage the country much more smoothly.
"Focus on monitoring Bryce, he is probably in a hurry now." Xu Yuheng said, "Once people lose their calm, it is easy to make wrong decisions. Maybe he will bring us a little surprise."
The little robot nodded ignorantly, looking at Xu Yuheng's electronic eyes, full of admiration.
Xu Yuheng looked at it, thought about it and said, "Xiao Wu, can you change your image?"
The little robot nodded.
"Then why not become human?" he asked.
"But Xiao Wu is not a human being." The little robot tilted its head and said ignorantly.
Xu Yuheng thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Well, as long as you like it."
"Like?" The little robot blinked, "I don't know either..."
There was a little more daze in its voice, "My brother said that liking is a happy emotion. When you are doing something or owning an item, if you feel happy and happy, that is liking."
"But I've always been like this. I haven't thought about being happy or not, so I don't know if I like it or not."
Looking at the confused little robot, Xu Yuheng said hesitantly, "Then why... don't you try it? Try more new things, this world is very exciting."
Xiao Wu looked at his tender eyes, nodded lightly, and said, "Well! Thank you second brother, Xiao Wu likes you!"
Xu Yuheng was slightly startled. When he was stunned, the image of the little robot flashed and disappeared without a trace.
He came back to his senses and shook his head, but there was a clear smile on the corner of his mouth.
By the time Xu Yuheng went offline, it was already past twelve o'clock in the evening. He had to go to the company for a meeting the next day, and the affairs of the game were temporarily handed over to Bai Feng.
Although he left a message in the game, when he came out, he still used the newly bought mobile phone to send a message to Bai Feng to remind him of related things.
At present, we are still acting according to the plan. When we escort the team to Lanyue City tomorrow, we can organize Lanyue City players to transfer careers, and at the same time learn a few tasks.
In order to run in and upgrade to improve his strength, he also said hello to the consul. If there are interstellar beasts breaking in tomorrow, let the players form a group to fight.
As for the things on the traitor's side, it depends on what Xiao Wu has monitored...
Thinking about these things, he felt a little hungry, and just as he was about to go to the kitchen to get something to eat, there was a knock on the door.
He went to open the door and saw his mother standing in the corridor with a tray on which was a bowl of noodles.
Seeing him, Mother Xu smiled and said, "Have you played the game? I cooked noodles for you, eat them while it's hot."
Xu Yuheng's heart was soft, and he took it with a smile.
"Thank you Mom, I'm just hungry and I'm going to the kitchen."
Seeing that his smile was no longer a forced smile, Mother Xu couldn't help but startled, and then laughed even more happily.
She said, "Okay, well, then you eat more."
"If the company is too tired, don't go. It's good to play games at home."
Xu Yuheng was helpless.
If he is still an adolescent child, it is estimated that he will be crooked by his mother's doting support.
"I know, I'll make arrangements."
"It's very late now, go to bed now."
Seeing Xu's mother nodding, Xu Yuheng was about to enter the house with a tray, but she heard her ask, "So are you a high-ranking official in the game?"
Xu Yuheng: "..."
Seeing that her son didn't speak, Xu's mother couldn't help but say earnestly: "Aheng, you have to work harder, it's almost a month, you said you want to be a high-ranking official, take me to see Xiaoli."
Xu Yuheng had no choice but to agree.
Seeing that she finally left with satisfaction, he held his face and entered the room, slamming the door.
In the house, the light is dim.
Elder Bryce sat at the table, watching the news from the communication device on the 2nd, his face was terrifyingly gloomy.
This room is not the one where Xu Yuheng and the others overheard the news last time. Elder Bryce is very vigilant and will change the location after every conspiracy.
He really didn't expect that the last meeting with Beina and Laws was still being monitored!
Now that the military knows their plan of action...
Want to give up
Elder Bryce gritted his teeth.
He can take the position of an elder and be responsible for the affairs of a main city, not by force, but by his experience and mind.
He only has half-star strength, but he can make one- or two-star elemental masters obey his orders. This is his wisdom.
And now, it was time for him to make a choice.
With his previous prudence, this matter does not need to be entangled at all. The moment he knows the leak, he will cut off all the beginnings and ends, and make everyone dormant again, waiting for a second chance.
However this time...
Rouse is right, this is a very rare opportunity.
The stronghold of the imperial city was destroyed, and now there is no leader in the organization. If this operation can be successful, he will most likely become the next commander.
He has already achieved his position, how can he not be moved by such an opportunity
Don't look at the few members he developed in Lanyue City, but each of them is of high quality, and this is also because of the environmental constraints of Lanyue City, it is already very good for him to be able to do this. Ratings have always been high.
However, Elder Bryce was not satisfied with this.
After Lanyue City is invaded by the rioting interstellar beasts, he will go to another main city.
There, he will add a group of subordinates, and he has the achievement of blowing up the core of Lanyue City's magic circle. Even if he can't become the next leader, it should be very easy to become the talker of a certain main city again.
He was tired of Lanyue City, the resources here were too scarce, and there was a risk that the city would be destroyed at any time.
If the city is really broken, although there is a way to save his life, all his efforts will be forfeited, and if he runs to other main cities to seek shelter, that is not what he wants to see.
Elder Bryce tapped the table lightly, weighing the pros and cons in his heart.
Finally, he sighed heavily.
Too risky.
Under the circumstance that the secret has been leaked, it is no longer guaranteed to be foolproof. If there is any error in the middle, the forces he has finally developed will have to be finished.
Elder Bryce made a decision.
He was going to send a signal to tell everyone to cancel the action, and all of them hibernated. Before the army came to the door, he changed his face and hid.
In Lanyue City, where the population management is loose, it is easy for them to hide, which is why they have never been caught.
However, before he could send the message, a red indicator light suddenly lit up on his communicator.
This is the special attention reminder he set.
The one marked with a red indicator light is the only one...
Elder Bryce's heart was beating violently.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his palpitations, and clicked to answer with trembling hands.
After he made his choice, a three-dimensional image that was not particularly clear suddenly appeared above the communicator.
If Xu Sili was here, he would recognize it—this is the leader of the Bayvat Empire, Arnolden.
The lizard man was covered with fine scales, and he couldn't tell what his expression represented. The eyes of cold-blooded animals looked very ugly.
Elder Bryce bowed respectfully to him, calling him His Majesty Arnolden.
Arnoldon squinted his eyes, and his voice was completely cold, "How about the plan to destroy Lanyue City?"
With the translator there, the communication between the two was unimpeded.
Elder Bryce's heart skipped a beat.
He suppressed his unease and told him about the leak of the action plan, and he decided to evacuate temporarily.
"Trash!" Arnoldon said angrily.
"This matter has been planned for so long, and you are telling me to give up now? Are you kidding me? Or are you people in the Roland Empire who are good at reneging on their promises?"
His words were obviously referring to the fact that Snow Rolland was playing with him.
Elder Bryce was frightened, he said cautiously: "Lanyue City will still be destroyed, I just hope Your Majesty will give us a little more time..."
"I've given you enough time!"
Arnoldon said coldly: "I want to see the results in seven days, and I want to let Snow Roland know that there is a price to pay for playing with the Baywart Empire!"
"If you can't even do such trivial things, then don't think about getting any benefits from me! The Baywart Empire doesn't need weak and incompetent subordinates!"
After speaking, Arnoldon cut off the communication.
Elder Bryce looked at the extinguished communicator, then at the quiet room, and sighed bitterly.
Although his admiration for the Bayvat Empire is true, he is actually very clear that when the Bayvat Empire takes over Aixuexing, it is difficult to guarantee whether Arnoldon can really give him the power as promised.
The best result is to use the power of the Bayvat Empire to immigrate to an alien planet...
Now, he cannot lose the backer of the Bayvat Empire.
Elder Bryce's expression soon became firm.
Since I can't refuse, I have to change the action plan... The best way is to act immediately, and catch them by surprise before the military makes any move.
But alas, now their layout is only half done.
If you act hastily, the risk will increase countless times, so...
Postpone action plans!
It was postponed to the third night, and when the garrison thought they had given up their action plan and appeared to be slack, they made a surprise move!
we can only do this.
Elder Bryce, who made a quick decision, started a new round of layout again.
At this moment, on the Neria River, which is not too far from Lanyue City, I saw a group of unkempt people beside the iron bridge in the middle of the river.
"Fuck, it's finally here!"
Jianyu Xingchen looked at the iron chain bridge not far away, and compared with the information that Li Lai showed them before, he couldn't help letting out a long sigh of relief.
As long as they cross this bridge, they will be able to reach Lanyue City in half a day's journey.
It has been almost two weeks since they left the Imperial City! In the past two weeks, none of the players who followed the whole process have been offline for more than an hour.
God knows how they survived this high-intensity march? Although the body does not feel tired, but the spirit will be tired!
However, they only dare to complain on the internal channel, after all, the NPCs are much worse than them.
It can only be said that this task is worthy of epic level.
There were 81 players at the time of departure, and now there are only 49 left. Most of them are professional players, and there are only a few support players like Anako who reluctantly followed because they were well protected.
It's worth celebrating - none of the NPCs died!
Including the teachers, there were a total of 111 NPCs in the escort team, all of whom were not dead. Although injuries were inevitable, with the insistence of the players, these injured soldiers were brought along.
Li Lai's mood is very complicated.
Although the lives of the comrades in arms were saved, the heroes sacrificed so much...
These are all Elementalists!
He felt blood dripping from his heart, and at the same time, he also felt more and more - the brave people are all lunatics!
He can clearly feel that they are not the kind of cold-blooded animals. On the contrary, they are often full of warmth, but they are so indifferent to the death of their companions.
Even showed contempt and contempt for their sacrifices.
What's even more strange is that they thought that their companions would be resurrected, and were already waiting for them in Lanyue City.
So Li Lai thinks - they may not be able to withstand the pressure, leading to mental disorders!
Many soldiers who have been on the battlefield for a long time actually have this problem.
Although he regretted it in his heart, he couldn't do anything about such a situation. After all, the current situation was very dangerous, and they were still in a hurry.
Fortunately, we finally came to the Chain Bridge over the Neria River.
As long as they pass through the iron chain bridge, they can reach Lanyue City within half a day. At that time, someone will pick them up and enter the city, and his mission this time is complete.
"Everyone rest in place, let's cross the river when it's dawn!"
The silver flying fish of the Neriya River are most active at night, and their activity will decrease a lot in the early morning, which is a good time for them to cross the iron lock.
Players are used to following orders.
Knowing that they can rest for a while, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They found a safe place and went offline one after another.
While the game is fun, reality is also important!
For this phenomenon, NPC warriors have taken it easy, and even when they see the player's character starting to get distracted, they will spontaneously guard the player.
Such interactions were also recorded by live broadcast footage, which made many cloud players feel warm.
Huasui found a tree, and after carefully checking that there was no problem, he sat down against the trunk, scanned the happy picture under his eyes, and pouted.
Now, he is the highest level player - Lv15, with 4000 HP.
Although it is still not enough to see in front of NPCs, in front of players, he is undoubtedly the number one expert, especially since he also owns the Radium 3000 that Li Lai gave him.
He can even kill a low-level two-star beast independently by means of a kite.
He enjoys the thrill of this kind of killing, and only thinks that there is no more fun game than this.
but…
His attitude towards NPCs has changed a bit.
"Hey, Hua Sui, you're here again!"
A voice sounded, Hua Sui looked over, and saw a figure emerge in the shadow of the tree, and finally turned into a man.
This is the only dark elementalist among the NPC warriors, whose strength has reached a one-star level. Because Hua Sui is now level 15, he can see the information of this warrior.
Wanghu, lv13, dark martial artist.
Serving as a scout in the squad, responsible for vigilance work.
Although his level was two levels lower than his own, Hua Sui did not underestimate him, because...
Wang Hu's blood volume has reached more than 40,000, which is more than ten times his, and even his attack is a multiple of his.
If it weren't for Radium 3000, he would be completely unable to beat the opponent by himself.
In the past two weeks, they got along day and night, and Wang Hu took him as an apprentice and taught him many dark skills.
Hua Sui Neng is as strong as it is now, and Wang Hu's contribution is indispensable.
Glancing at him, Hua Sui said nothing, and took out a fruit from his pocket to gnaw.
"Stinky boy, give me one too!"
Wang Hu sat down beside him.
Huasui nibbled at the fruit, pouted impatiently, took out another one and threw it to him.
Wang Hu then smiled and ate the fruit with him.
Looking at the comrades resting quietly below, Wang Hu suddenly said: "Tomorrow you will pass the death rope, be careful."
"I know." The boy frowned irritably, as if he didn't want to listen to his long-winded words.
Only today, Wang Hu's words have obviously changed.
"You have a good talent, you can teach everything, and the key can be used, unlike some of your companions..."
"Hua Sui, live well, don't die."
The boy's chewing of the pulp slowed down, but he quickly returned to normal.
"It's long-winded, there are so many words, take care of yourself!"
Wang Hu glanced at him and shook his head.
After he silently ate the fruit, he turned into a shadow again and disappeared from the tree.
Hua Sui watched him disappear, snorted softly, and threw away the fruit pit in his hand, then leaned against the tree trunk and closed his eyes.
He didn't really fall asleep, but used the shadow to observe the movement around him.
This was also taught to him by Wang Hu, and he digested it very well.
Unconsciously, the light in the sky became brighter.
After a night of rest, the escort team finally recovered and started again.
The instructors are carried by the NPC warriors.
Because there were only three iron cables, and the total length was over a thousand meters, in order to avoid accidents, all of them were divided into five teams.
Passing over the iron rope, they are not completely unprotected - they can be tied to the iron rope with a special rope and moved over a little bit.
But this method has a drawback, it will greatly reduce their movement speed and increase the time they spend above the river.
Once the early morning hours have passed, the silver flying fish are active again, and their danger will increase exponentially—in the past, there have been examples of warriors hanging on iron ropes and being killed by flying fish.
The heads of these flying fish are as hard as iron, and they can break even rocks, not to mention fragile humans.
Unless they can wear armor that is armed to the whole body, but in order to march quickly, the soldiers wear light armor, and it is impossible to achieve such protection.
After weighing it, Lieutenant Colonel Li Lai decided to give up this protective measure.
Because this time, they have a total of twelve wind elemental masters, and they are still spiritual! After the five squads were blessed with the lightening technique, they could achieve a quick decision.
The only problem is that players are not trained to pass quickly on the kilometer-long iron rope.
Of course, this problem is currently well resolved.
There are only 49 players left, and it is still possible to assign dozens of soldiers to help carry them over.
Finally, Li Lai gave an order, and the first team set off.
More than 30 people are not gathered together on the ground.
According to the rhythm, they control the distance of two meters each time, which will not cause too much burden on the iron rope, and can effectively avoid collisions.
Under the blessing of the wind elementist's lightening technique, the soldiers ran on the iron rope, as if they were flying.
In the breathless concentration of everyone, the first team passed the iron rope smoothly and reached the other side safely.
After the news was returned, they quickly began to investigate the situation on the other side and eliminated possible dangers.
A second squad followed.
Then there is the third one.
The front was surprisingly smooth, making the players relax their vigilance, until the fourth team, the silver flying fish under the river, suddenly became active for some reason.
The originally calm river surface suddenly became lively.
The flying fish in the sky shuttle in the sky, the silver light flickers, it looks so beautiful and romantic.
However, it is so deadly to the soldiers and players who pass through it.
"Ah—" Finally, in the eyes of everyone who couldn't bear it, the first soldier who was knocked out appeared.
A flying fish hit his waist, and he was smashed into the air and fell into the river.
Waiting for him below are river beasts with their mouths wide open and their ferocious teeth exposed, scrambling to enjoy this delicious meal.
