22 The End of the Hunt
Lin Chi pressed the red button and flew a van that rushed out of the street next to him, and the kill prompt popped up at the same moment:
The player's "impulse reaction" is killed by the player's "countercurrent"!
Lin Chi knew that the deterrent power of this main battle tank was still very strong, and after he got into the car, not only the soldiers were beaten and turned around, but the other players also hid without a trace, and they did not chase and kill themselves as frantically as before.

At this time, the ten-minute countdown of the bounty task is also nearing the end.
As the soldiers and other players began to retreat, the tank at this time almost entered a state of strolling on the street, and as the pressure became less, Lin Chi decisively continued the topic just now:
"What rules?"
"You should know exactly what I'm talking about, boy." There was a hint of helplessness in Blackbeard's voice: "We are not like you. β
"Yes, we can't be as 'free' as you." Satya took over the conversation.
"Is that so?" Lin Chi narrowed his eyes slightly.
It sounds like these two heroic NPCs are not just self-aware, they may already know that they are characters in the virtual world. But......
"We are not stupid, of course we know the difference between people from the 'outside world' and the aborigines." Blackbeard coughed: "In fact, we are not aborigines, just ......"
Before he could finish his words, he stopped abruptly, and Lin Chi looked back in surprise, only to see that Blackbeard's mouth was moving, but he didn't make any sound.
- Is his voice muffled?
Realizing that he seemed to have triggered the blocking mechanism in the game, Lin Chi sighed helplessly: "Actually, the 'outside world' you are talking about is not so free. β
Whether it is the natural laws of birth, old age, sickness and death, or laws and regulations and moral norms, even human beings in the real world are always in a state of "dancing in shackles", and it is impossible to do whatever they want like in games.
"I know, in a way, we're actually a little more comfortable than you......" Satya laughed.
Before she could finish her words, the whole person suddenly squatted inside the tank with his head in his arms, and Blackbeard next to him also squatted down without saying a word, looking very painful.
"What's wrong?" A hint of foreboding rose in Lin Chi's heart.
"It's fine."
The two quickly stood up, and their expressions returned to their usual state: "It's just a joke." β
ββIs that really the case?
Despite the conversation just now, it's likely to be an easter egg added by the game designer. But Lin Chi always felt that things were not so simple.
As a professional gamer, Lin Chi knew that "War Paradise" was indeed just a game, and this kind of virtual world entered through brain-computer interfaces could not exist at all. But......
As he was thinking, a large string of words suddenly popped up at the bottom right of his gaze:
The bounty has ended.
Congratulations to Countercurrents for escaping the hunt! His wanted rank has disappeared and he has received a prize of 100,000 dollars!
You become the first player to escape from a bounty mission since the beta began, earning the achievement "Enemy of the Public" and unlocking the new passive skill "Fugitive Mad Fugitives".
ββ¦β¦β
After reading a series of prompts, Lin Chi's original six-star wanted index suddenly became 0, he parked the tank on the side of the road, and asked again before leaving:
"Are you really reluctant to go with me? Now the army has stopped pursuing you for the time being. β
"Let's go, the army is coming soon." Satya pursed her lips and raised her hand to wipe the large beads of sweat from her forehead.
"Okay."
Confirming that the two would not join his army, Lin Chi also decisively opened the hatch and left the tank, and then rushed into the apartment building next to him without saying a word, avoiding the dangerous range on the street.
Even if the wanted index has disappeared, there may still be players staring at them, and if you overturn in such a place, the gains outweigh the losses.
After waiting patiently for five minutes and confirming that no other players had entered the building, Lin Chi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He then began to count the spoils of the bounty mission.
The $100,000 in cash rewarded by the mission had automatically gone into the briefcase, enough to hire dozens of mercenaries. In the originally empty skill column, there is also an additional skill called "Crazy Fugitive" that has just been obtained:
Fugitive (Passive): The experience of escaping from the highest wanted index makes you a seasoned fugitive. When Wanted, the Wanted Index fades by 20% faster, and the effect is permanent.
"Lao Tzu has contributed to the country! Why do you hunt me down? - Trevor. Philip.
"Not bad......" he nodded in satisfaction.
In this city where the most wanted is triggered if you are not careful, the skill of quickly lowering the wanted index is undoubtedly very useful. In this way, even if he is pursued by the guards again, he should not be as embarrassed as he was just now.
In addition, the bomb tire quest received from the mad rat has also changed from the unfinished state to "completed", and as long as you return to the mad rat, you can receive the mission reward.
Thinking of this, Lin Chi left the apartment building through the side door and returned to the silent street, looking up at the almost real night sky.
Although he is also very concerned about what Blackbeard and Satya say, he knows that he will not be able to ask for any useful information from the NPCs if the shield is triggered.
To figure out what's going on in this game, you'll have to think of something else.
He snatched the car from the street and returned to the central square, where the great war had just broken out, only to see that the previous soldiers had evacuated and the square had returned to its original appearance.
Familiar with the road came to the speakeasy again, Lin Chi reported the code, passed through the long passage, and entered the underground street of the black market.
At night, there are fewer passers-by NPCs in the black market, and dozens of guards with light machine guns are still patrolling dutifully.
Lin Chi was about to go to the store where the mad rat was, when he noticed a very discordant figure in the crowd:
It was a guy in a red cloak, his head completely obscured by the shadow of his hood, revealing only two strange red lights. His body was covered in pale bandages, and several spikes protruding from his arms, making him look completely human.
Seeing this strange man, Lin Chi narrowed his eyes meaningfully:
"Is it a 'humanoid monster'?"
ββIn the brain imaging game, although it is not possible to adjust the gender when creating a character, some players with special hobbies will adjust their characters to look like monsters.
This type of player who uses a non-human character is referred to by other players as a "humanoid monster".
Obviously, this guy should be one of the humanoid monsters too!
At the same time that Lin Chi noticed the player, the monster covered in bandages also noticed him, walked over slowly with uncoordinated steps, and stopped in front of Lin Chi:
"Hello, you're a 'counter-current', right?" Beneath the player's hood, an electronically manipulated, emotionless sound is emitted.
"yes, who are you?" Lin Chi frowned.
Hearing his question, the other party stretched out his right hand, which was also wrapped in bandages, as if it was still stretching out bloodstains:
"I'm Frankenstein." The player said.
