Chapter 49: The Great War Is Imminent
"Run, we're free!"
As soon as Link opened his eyes, he saw countless emaciated people wrapped in coarse linen clothes, fleeing from the gap in the high-voltage power grid like wild horses on the loose.
Link's brain tingled, and a lot of memories suddenly came to his mind. His most recent memory was that he was repairing an aging game pod that had been used for six years, and suddenly his whole body was convulsed, and his eyes went black, and when he opened his eyes again, he came to the place in front of him.
"Here...... It's like a Destiny ......," Link muttered as he rubbed his temples.
The ancient ruins of the desert are surrounded by scaffolding, covered with an earthy yellow curtain, and are tightly covered. The only thing that was exposed was the entrance passage to the underground palace that was more than two meters high.
Slaves are guarded by mercenaries to enter the dungeon to dig up ancient ruins and treasures, which are then moved outside to the tent to be sorted and boxed, and finally transported by military trucks to the Wasteland Gang.
The camp is surrounded by a high-voltage power grid.
But today, somehow, during the excavation, there was a violent earthquake in the underground palace, and there were screams of slaves dying tragically, as if there was something unclean.
The power supply in the camp was temporarily interrupted, and the high-voltage power grid was shut down.
So taking advantage of the fact that a large number of mercenaries entered the underground palace and the gap between the insufficient garrison forces in the camp, a slave stole a desert jeep and crashed into the power grid during the riot, tearing a hole in it, triggering the slave to flee.
Link quickly combed through and absorbed the influx of memories, and his face changed in shock:
"The Wasteland Gang excavates ancient ruins to alarm mysterious underground creatures, and the quicksand sinks, isn't this a description in the background event of "Destiny"!"
Now under his feet is an exploration scene dungeon called [Death Dungeon] after the game officially opens.
The zombies in the [Death Dungeon] are all transformed by mercenaries and slaves after death.
That is, a large number of slaves died in this incident!
Link's scalp exploded, and he broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't have time to think about why he had crossed over into the game.
Now there is only one thought in his mind - run!
Link looked around, and the pergola floor was filled with various treasures excavated from the dungeon.
He was a slave in charge of sorting and sorting, and the mercenaries at the door of the tent had left at some point, either to suppress the slaves or to fight in the dungeon.
Link grabbed a gold bracelet and put it on his wrist, then ran out with the other slaves.
The excavation site was chaotic, and gunfire rang out from the dungeon, as well as the gunfire of the mercenaries in the camp.
The mercenaries roam back and forth in desert modified vehicles, the machine gunners in the back seat keep strafing, and the escaped slaves fall in pieces like blades of grass crushed by the wind.
Running on both feet, you can't outrun jeeps, you can't outrun quicksand, and you can't dodge bullets.
Link's figure stopped abruptly, and instead of fleeing with the others, he stood on tiptoe and looked around.
Soon Link found a mercenary camp in its own right in the northwest corner. With what he knew about the Wasteland Gang, the rest of the vehicles must be parked inside! Many slaves tried to storm the camp to seize weapons, but they were suppressed by the fire of the defending mercenaries, and fell on the way to the charge, and the corpses were almost covered with the entrance of the mercenary camp.
Some of the slaves who had snatched weapons from the scattered mercenaries hid behind the bunkers and struggled to line up, coldly putting down their guns, and the rest of the time they were suppressed by the powerful firepower, not even daring to raise their heads.
Link made his way through the fleeing crowd and crept up on the mercenary camp from the side.
At this time, the mercenaries were all focused on suppressing the slave rebellion and rescuing the dungeon, and due to the lack of manpower, the mercenary camp was almost defenseless.
He was small and skinny, and he found cover all the way to dodge, and even managed to sneak into the camp while the mercenaries were not looking.
At this moment, the gunfire in front of the camp was extremely intense, and Link was hiding in the corner of the tent.
"The location of the car has been determined, and now the key is missing."
Link is quite familiar with the Wasteland Gang's mercenary system and composition, after all, it is the force that has been brushed up to vomit before.
Mercenary squads are divided into tents, each of which is a three-person squad. The three of them have their own duties, they are the driver, the main gunner, and the fire suppresses the machine gunner.
It's not hard to find the key, but it's not easy.
As long as you can enter the tent, you have a chance to find the car keys.
Link began to move, tiptoeing outside the tent. The camouflage tent is opaque, and you can't see what's inside. Coupled with the roar of gunfire now, it was difficult to hear whether there was anyone in the tent. If you guess wrong, you're trapping.
When I got to the nearest tent, I heard the shouting and scolding inside.
"These damn dogs, they're going to disturb my nap, and they're going to kill you all when I get out!"
Farewell, next.
Link didn't waste time, as the mercenaries suppressed the slaughter, many fugitive slaves were killed, and the quicksand of the 'Sword of Damocles' that broke out at some point hanging over his head left for Link to run out.
Link went around to a camp in the distance, listened carefully for a while, and heard nothing.
After observing for a moment, he lifted the corner of the curtain of the tent and slipped in with lightning speed.
Link glanced at it and saw that everything was there, so he hurried to rummage through it.
Pockets on the table, clothes and pants......
Finally, I found a key in the tongue pocket of a jacket.
Link raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Got it!" ”
Almost at the same moment, a line of text appeared in front of Link's eyes that only he could see:
[You have obtained the Desert Jeep (re)key]
"Huh? System panel? ”
Before Link could understand, there was a sudden sound of heavy footsteps in military boots outside, which became clearer and louder.
Someone's coming!
Link shuddered violently, and his back instantly soaked. A quick glance inside the tent revealed that there was little room to hide......
Wow!
The curtain of the tent was violently lifted, and the visitor stood at the door, glanced at it, and then stopped moving.
Link, who was hiding under the bed, could just see a pair of black military boots standing in the doorway, feeling uneasy.
"Did this man find something when he stood at the door and didn't come in?"
Link frowned, thinking carefully about the action just now, there should be no horses' feet.
The mercenary stood in the doorway and scanned the room, then went straight to the hanger and rummaged through the pockets of his clothes.
"Damn, where the hell did this guy put the key?" The mercenary searched for a long time, and finally got impatient and simply took his clothes and pants and trembled.
The cards, snacks, daggers, and photos in my pockets fell to the ground, but there was no key.
", where the hell did this dog hide the key?" The mercenaries did not find it and withdrew from the camp with a curse.
When the sound died down, Link cautiously crawled out from under the bed and picked up the holstered dagger on the ground.
[You gain 1 Sharp Dagger]
There are also various data of the short dagger next to the translucent prompt in front of him, but Link really doesn't have time to look at the data of the small dagger carefully.
Looking down at the linen coat covering his body, there was no pocket on his body that could hold anything.
In order to prevent slaves from secretly hiding treasures from excavating ancient ruins, the Wasteland Gang made them all wear special linen clothes, which simply means cutting three holes in a sheet of linen and sticking out their heads and hands.
Link was heartbroken, and simply tucked the dagger into his crotch.
Crotch tuck knife, no one loves.
Rao is a short dagger with a leather case, and Link still feels a chill under his crotch.
Lifting the curtain and observing, Link was sure that no one had dodged out.
In order to prevent confusion when lost, the car key is stamped with the number of the corresponding vehicle. Link cat-clung around the edge of the tent to where the mercenary camp had parked his vehicles, and began to look for a jeep named '777'.
There were apparently more enemies here than in the camps, and the mercenaries jumped into the converted jeeps in groups of twos and thundered their engines to speed away, and into the desert in pursuit of the escaped slaves.
Link's small stature quickly weaves his way from one parked jeep to another, dodging mercenaries in battle while searching for his own 'Jeep'.
"Found it!"
Link swept his eyes and saw a jeep with license plate 777, but just as he was about to pass, two more groups of mercenaries appeared in succession and drove out in pursuit.
Link didn't rush and waited patiently under the car.
At this time, the more anxious you are, the easier it is to go wrong.
It wasn't until the two groups had completely gone that Link climbed out from under the car and quickly crossed the open road like a rat crossing the street and climbed into the jeep.
The modified Desert Jeep is fully open, with no doors, no roof, and only a windshield and steel frame structure, reducing almost all unnecessary configurations, just to carry a heavy machine gun in the back seat, which is simple and crude.
"Whew, the next is the feature film."
Link exhaled sharply, Rao was still nervous after six years of playing the game.
He could be resurrected if he died before, but now if he dies, he will really hang.
In order to save 800 yuan in the repair cost of the game cabin, he has paid the price of his life. Now that God has given him a resurrection coin, he will be gone.
Link was thin and short.
The seat has been adjusted slightly so that your toes can step on the accelerator.
Look through the windshield to see the current situation.
The battle at the main entrance of the mercenary camp is coming to an end, and the slaves who got the guns have no ammunition supplies, and the confidence to respond is getting smaller and smaller. At this moment, there was already a team of mercenaries quietly platooning over.
Not far away, there are several desert jeeps in pursuit, and the scene is like a one-sided slaughter and hunting. How did the slaves who ran out of their bare hands fight the 'Iron Behemoth'? The machine gun fired, the bullets pierced the slave's body, and then the ammunition exploded, and the huge energy blew the organs into a blur of flesh and intestines. Those who were hit in the hands and feet exploded into a blood mist, fell to the ground and wailed in pain, and were then run over by the jeep.
Link stared at the side door of the parking lot, which led directly to the desert without any obstruction along the way.
Now because there are many jeeps out in pursuit, the railing at the entrance is also raised high and unhindered.
Thundered!
Link had just inserted the key into the hole when he suddenly heard a thunderous roar coming from the direction of the dungeon.
He could feel the earth tremble as he sat in the jeep.
Click, click!
Link saw the scaffolding on the ancient ruins completely disintegrate, and the cracks in the ground quickly spread and expanded, greedily crawling everywhere.
Many of the mercenaries heard this terrible sound, and they all ceased fire and looked in the direction.
"Oh no, the quicksand is about to begin!"
Cold sweat was dripping from Link's forehead, his face changed suddenly, and without saying a word, he twisted the key and started the desert jeep.
Buzz——!!!
The high-revving engine roared, and Link deftly started, turned around, and slammed out with one foot on the accelerator.
[You have successfully activated the Desert Jeep (changed) and activated the specialty [Beginner Driving]]
[[Beginner Pilot] progress 0.1%...... 0.2%……]
Link stepped on the accelerator and pressed his whole body into the seat with super-fast acceleration. Link held the steering wheel firmly with both hands, not daring to let go in the slightest.
This dog-day modified desert jeep is really not a good thing, and in order to reduce weight to the greatest extent, even the seat belt has been removed.
The desert jeep was galloping, and rushed out of the mercenary camp with sand and dust all the way.
The mercenary guarding the side gate was stunned for a moment when he saw a jeep speeding away in front of him.
The person in the driver's seat just now seemed to be a ...... dressed in linen Slave?
", why is he in the parking lot?"
The mercenary was stunned for a moment, then reacted, picked up the walkie-talkie on his chest and shouted: "A slave stole the car and ran out!" Attention to the ministries, license plate number 777, license plate 777! ”
Link saw through the rearview mirror the mercenary at the door pulling out the walkie-talkie to talk.
Looking at the desert jeeps chasing and slaughtering slaves in the desert, two of them began to drift in place and turn around, rushing towards him.
At the same time, the roar of the dungeon grew louder and louder.
The scaffolding had completely collapsed, and so had the earthy yellow curtain that covered it.
The entire underground palace was submerged underground, and the land around the ruins began to concave and slowly form an inclination.
The sand under his feet was converging towards the center, and both the confronting slaves and the mercenaries in the camp were horrified to see this.
The scariest thing in the desert is quicksand and sandstorms.
Right now
Quicksand is coming!
Death is coming!
"Run, run!"
The mercenaries roared and ran to the parking lot, at this time to suppress the slaves is a fart!
The speed of the subsidence was much faster than the speed at which they could run, and the people near the center of the quicksand ran wildly, but found that no matter how hard they tried, they could not run out of the vortex, and they were soon swallowed by the quicksand. The tent was like a leaf in a whirlpool, buried in the sand and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The quicksand vortex grew bigger and bigger, and those who didn't have time to escape seemed to be grabbed by a pair of invisible hands, and all of them were brought into the center of the vortex and swept into the unknown.
The mercenary rushed into the car, started the gear and stepped on the accelerator in one go, and the car drove away quickly through the side door.
It's just that the sand dunes in front of the windshield slowly lift, and the perspective of the people in the car gradually rises, and they don't even have to look up to see the sky.
The roar of the jeep's engine was like that of an ancient beast, but to no avail, it was mercilessly dragged into the center and swallowed by the silent power of the quicksand.
Seeing this, the two jeeps that were about to turn around and intercept Link from the front hurriedly circled back again.
At this time, who is desperate and who is Shabi, in front of his own life, the employment relationship is old!
But just as he made a U-turn, Link swept through the two jeeps and ran wildly......
