Chapter 184 Truce
The shouts of death in the library were deafening, slowly weakened, and finally became silent at all. The mist began to move, and they divided into three groups. One group continued to move forward, one group turned back, and one group floated toward the river bed to the west. Lin Wu stood on
At the edge of the rope, he reached out and pulled everyone to crawl across the eaves and put them on the rope. Everyone, including Xiao Wai, returned to the third floor safely. Lin Wu grabbed the rope and was about to slide down. A sinful bullet came out of the darkness.
The shot hit Lin Wu. Lin Wu let go of his hands, and all the bullets that came after him missed. Lin Wu tightened his grip on the rope and hit the person on the ground on the first floor.
Before everyone went downstairs to check, Lin Wu had already completed the hospitalization procedures and was lying on the hospital bed, receiving treatment from the NPC. Maya breathed a sigh of relief: "Can't you buy a gold card with so many points?"
Lin Wu shook his head: "I only get 200 for killing one person, and 300 for a gold card."
While Huo Wu said: "The gold card has been raised to 500 points." The big screen explained that because the sales volume of the gold card exceeded expectations, the value of the gold card was increased to 500 points. The resurrection card is still 200 points, indicating that not many people buy the resurrection card.
.You can guess with your buttocks that those who buy gold cards in large quantities must be those bastards from hunters.
In addition, the prices of assault rifles, assault rifle bullets and bombs have all doubled, and these two are also the most commonly used weapons by hunters.
Many players who had gone out to escape the fog returned to the library one after another, and the library became lively again. It seemed that nothing happened just now. Maya looked at the crowd and found that many people did not take off their protective clothing, so it was impossible to know who was hunting.
The increase in the price of gold cards is beneficial to players, which means that hunters will not die with a small number of players. As the number of players decreases, the difficulty for hunters to obtain points will rise sharply.
Maya returned to the ward, and the people from the Spark Base had already left. Maya said: "We have to survive for two days." She expressed her opinion.
Peanut agreed and put forward his own suggestion: "Stay at the library supply point during the day, and at least stay here tomorrow. Maybe other surviving partners will find this place."
Maya nodded: "The library is not safe at night, and the excavation site will also be attacked by fog at night."
Lin Wu said: "It's better to retreat to the subway passage of the excavation site. We have night vision devices, and the zombies and monsters inside are very weak. We can also earn some points by the way."
Maya said: "I believe that hunters will not hunt in subways and tunnels. But today countless zombies poured out of the tunnels. What if there is a zombie wave in the subway too?"
Lin Wu thought for a long time: "It seems that there is no completely safe place."
Peanut said: "Players at the supply point in area 1 will go to the excavation point in area 6, and players at the supply point in area 4 will go to the excavation point in area 7. No one cares about areas 2 and 3."
Maya took out the map and looked at it for a while: "It only takes half an hour for us to enter Area 3. To avoid the fog attack at night, we need to find a high point. Signal towers or rooftops of high-rise buildings are all fine. We will set off tomorrow evening." Maya said at night
Trade the monitor for peanuts and go downstairs to buy a new one yourself. You need to do it quickly to avoid the price going up later.
Maya met Xinghuo at the commodity purchase area on the second floor. During the conversation between the two, Maya did not invite them to join the team. Xinghuo and the three of them were having some disputes about whether to go back to find Rizhao. Maya did not give Xinghuo any advice. She believed that regardless of whether Rizhao would detonate the bomb
Kill the hunter, or wait for the hunter at the excavation site, he will return to the library by himself. Judging from the current situation, only people like Lin Wu are qualified to rescue others. Others going out will only increase the risk of being killed.
It is conceivable that the resurrected hunters will definitely focus on the area from the supply point to the excavation point.
…
On the morning of the third day of the dungeon, after a day and a half of massacre, the number of players had dropped to 30,000. However, the deaths of half of the players had nothing to do with hunters. The causes of death included hunger, zombies, or injuries outdoors, and protection.
Clothing rupture, etc.
Due to the destruction of the excavation site in Area 7 and the presence of Hunters, almost all players in this area have gathered in the library. Many people choose to do protected brick-moving tasks to earn some points. But the place with the most players is the Hunters
My favorite place. Four hours from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m., four explosions occurred outside the library, each blast taking away dozens of people.
Players lack unified management and are unable to fight against this situation. More people huddle in the safe area of the library and never go out. This is also true. There are many snipers ambushing around the library. Players who leave the safe area are easily sniped.
Kill. Once night comes, the hunters will sneak into the library as players and take advantage of the fog to carry out indiscriminate attacks on the people in the library.
I have to say that Lin Wu still envies the task of the fortress agent. Not only can he earn points quickly, but he also feels a sense of accomplishment by bullying the many with less.
As a supply point, the library certainly cannot accommodate ten thousand people. It doesn't matter, the library can be expanded internally, adding rooms and adding space. But even so, the library is still very crowded.
After purchasing all the supplies and having a free dinner at 6 p.m., Lin Wu, three people and one dog left the library through the back door. There were many players accompanying them, and their purpose was to go out to avoid trouble. During the period, someone was shot, and Lin Wu was sneaking around
They fought back and hit Nightmare. Although there was no headshot, the Nightmare guarding the back door was afraid to show up for the time being. The three people and the dog took the opportunity to escape. After a while, darkness enveloped the entire land, and only the transmission in the library could be seen.
The lights come out.
The fog in the distance is slowly approaching, the hunters are ready to move, and another massacre will be staged in the library.
…
The foothold was a signal tower next to the factory area in District 3. This signal tower was shaky and kept making creaking sounds when climbing up. Maya went first and carefully checked the overall pillars and believed that the main structure was intact.
Lin Wu then carried Xiao Wai and Peanut to the signal tower maintenance area.
Not long after they settled down, fog appeared in the southeast and southwest directions, and the two fogs converged and spread to the surrounding area. Peanut mentioned something that the two did not want to mention: "They should be in danger."
Lin Wu objected: "Ji people have their own destiny. If they really die, I will tell them later that you cursed them to death."
Peanut chuckled and felt a little relieved: "If the players can unite together, they can resist the hunters."
Maya said: "It is easy to unite, but very difficult. The player's wish is not to die. If someone unites the players, who will be at the forefront when facing danger? For example, Nightmare snipers from a book a hundred meters away.
Players can swarm the people who come out of the pavilion, forcing Nightmare to escape from the sniper point."
Maya: "But who is in the front? With a distance of 100 meters and obstacles on the road, Nightmare has time to kill three or five people. More of the situation is what we encountered at the excavation site. Faced with the threat of death, the people in the front row went crazy.
They pushed towards the back. Only when they knew that they would die if they did not resist, did they rush out together."
Maya: "Don't talk about strangers. Even when you ask members of the base to die, they will hesitate. We often encounter similar things in society. A thief is stealing things, and no one dares to speak out. But once someone comes forward, it will be very big.
There is a probability that someone else will step forward. The difficult thing is to be the first one. And people who can unite the players will basically not be the first to rush out."
Peanut asked: "Is there any way?"
"Heavy rewards are an effective method." Maya said: "To give material rewards for bravery, it is best to ask the other party not to donate, but to have to ask for it. In this way, it will give people the conditions to fully act bravely. If we tell the players
, everyone rush out, anyone who dies outside the dungeon can get an assault rifle, I believe many people will rush out without fear of death."
Of course it doesn't work in practice. Firstly, there aren't that many guns, and secondly, people don't believe it. At this time, a group with financial resources and credibility is needed to do this. This is not something that can be solved by just one person.
After eating and taking turns to watch the night, the whole night passed.
On the fourth day of the dungeon, three people and one dog continued to nest on the signal tower. It was not until the morning of the fifth day of the dungeon that the three came down from the signal tower. They planned to return to the library to check the number of surviving players and make further plans. Time waits for no one.
There are only the last three days. It is dangerous to face hunters, but wealth can be found in danger. Without the interference of a large number of players, it is still unclear who is hunting whom.
…
There are still players in the library, but they are no longer as crowded as the market. Looking at the players here, they are either in groups of five or seven, and they all operate as a team. They do not easily communicate with the outside world.
Judging from the weapons they carried, at least half of them were equipped with automatic rifles. Lin Wu even discovered that a girl had a reconnaissance drone exactly like his own. When he went to communicate, he learned that the other party had made a drone with hacker skills.
.
This surprised Lin Wu very much. He knew that making a drone requires many, many materials.
With a common language, the two groups started chatting. This group of five people came from the legion under the jurisdiction of Beicheng, 15 kilometers away from the future city. The legion has 15 official members and is divided into three bases, namely the red legion, the orange legion and the
The yellow army and the three army bases are separated in a triangle to form a large base. After a few days of dungeons, only 5 of the 15 people survived. They also killed 3 hunters during the firefight.
The deputy commander of the Yellow Legion is the current commander of the team. He sincerely invites Shadow Base to send people to their base to inspect and consider their proposal to establish a new legion. After listening to the other party's explanation, Maya agreed with the legion model and said that she would seriously consider it.
the other party’s proposal.
Legion mode threshold: Have a certain level of strength. There are no specific requirements for morality, but there are courts within the legion. You can be a pervert, but if you do something like a pervert, you violate legion laws and must be tried. Except for the defendant legion
In addition to the victim corps, other members are jurors, who decide whether the defendant is guilty or not. Its structure is not modern law, but closer to a management system that combines modern law and tribes.
In addition, the leader of each legion takes turns to be the legion commander on duty, responsible for handling cross-legion government affairs. Currently, there are three professionals in the legion who are still further improving the legion rules. They hope to build the legion into a human home in the home game.
I learned from the legion that hunters have become more and more arrogant in the past two days, and have changed from assassinations with tactics to killing with firepower. They not only ambush players, but also rely on advanced weapons and abundant bullets to fight with players in the wild.
Line. Although there are many capable players among the players, even if they can survive an attack, they have used up most of their bullets, which has caused their resources to quickly deplete.
Each of the five members of the legion has an assault rifle, three of which were obtained from their dead comrades. The five members only have 40 rounds of ammunition left. They are discussing how to deal with the current situation. The legion also explained that because the number of players has dropped sharply,
, the remaining players are all on average, and the hunters' performance is getting worse and worse.
There are currently 7,500 surviving players, and within half an hour of the communication between Shadow and Legion, only 10 people died. Of course, this does not completely explain the problem. It is possible that the hunters did not take action, and these 10 people just died from zombie attacks.
After separating from the legion and purchasing supplies, Maya told her her plan, so the three of them left through the back door. Under Lin Wu's investigation, the three of them made a large circle and arrived at a group of buildings about 100 meters in front of the library.
I never expected to bump into a player team here first.
The two groups exchanged several shots. When Lin Wu retreated and prepared to kill him, the other party asked: "Who are you?"
"Player." Maya also felt something was wrong: "Ordinary player."
"So are we, Nancheng Pistachio."
Maya said: "Go north to suppress the shadow."
The other party corrected: "Nancheng Nanxia Town Pistachio."
After the two parties met and chatted, they learned that there were three player teams nearby. They joined together to blend into the building complex with the purpose of ambush the hunters. There was a firefight yesterday afternoon, and after the other party retreated on their own initiative, they were never found again.
Traces of hunters.
As Maya expected, after a few days of elimination, the remaining players not only had the ability to survive, but also began to hunt hunters as a group. Not to mention the difficulty of hunting for hunters suddenly increased, the price they paid and the harvest they gained were disproportionate. Assume
Originally, every time a hunter killed 10 people, he could recoup the loss of one death. Of course, he had made a lot of money in the past few days. But now, it is difficult for a hunter to replace 10 players with one life.
The disadvantage of fortress hunters is skills, and the advantage of surviving players is skills. The advantage of fortress hunters is weapons and equipment, but with the deduction of skills, they may not have much advantage.
Maya declined the other party's invitation and went to the excavation site with Lin Wu and Peanut to carry out plan B.
But Plan B quickly ran aground because there were seven player teams squatting near the excavation site to guard the hunters. They had a gun battle with the hunters two hours ago, and two of them died, an NPC hunter and a player.
The hunters were killed by them. They also provided their own findings. It was difficult to identify the player hunters after wearing protective clothing, but their shoes were all the same style of leather boots. Through the shoes, you can identify whether they are fortress hunters.
It was also based on this that they were able to strike first in this morning's battle.
With their protection, the number of players doing tasks in the excavation site began to increase. Everyone used demolition crowbars to search for parts in nearby buildings. While they were working, they also became bait, attracting hunters. There were already
