It's late at night, and the dirty beach, full of cans and all kinds of garbage, is completely darkened. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This beach on the west side of Staten Island has not been affected by the power outage, after all, it is usually not visited here, and it can be regarded as one of the rare "no man's land" in New York City.

Today, however, the beach is not as untouched as it usually is.

"Ah......h

In the garbage heaps all over the beach, a hoarse female voice sounded.

Then, a dark shadow moved.

The right hand, which was covered by a plastic bag, stretched out from the garbage heap and violently pushed away the pile of garbage in front of him.

The next person to stand up was a woman who was scarred all over her body, but she was fine.

The brown tights were covered with scratches, and there were several more wounds on her face, and the Valkyrie stood in place blankly, reached out and took off a plastic bottle wrapped around her long silver hair, and looked around with a confused expression:

"Damn, where is this? I'm alive? ”

- At the moment when she was swallowed by the sewage in the sewer, the Valkyrie thought she was hanging, but she was not kicked out of the game.

And when she opened her eyes again, she was already on this beach:

The confused Valkyrie,Open her status bar and look at the time.,I saw that it was already midnight on the second day of the game.,That is to say—

"I've been in a coma for a day?"

Thinking of this, Valkyrie's expression distorted, and there was a hint of anger in her voice.

Although with the protection of up to 18 lucky points, he successfully saved his life. But he was still in a coma for a day and a night, so that his original leading upgrade speed and game progress will undoubtedly lag behind other players!

She looked down at the backpack hanging from her waist and was about to check if her equipment was missing, when she suddenly noticed an imperceptible silver light shining from under the rocky cliff not far ahead.

What is that?

Suspicious, the Valkyrie walked over and took out an FN-P90 submachine gun from her backpack.

――It stands to reason that there shouldn't be any buildings in this kind of ghost place where birds don't.

Underneath the cliff was a silver metal door covered by a camouflage net. Although the door is locked, its security lock is naturally not the opponent of this female hacker.

The Valkyrie used her electronic eyes to easily open the door, and when she saw the long metal corridor inside and the red lights installed on the walls, a smug smile appeared on her dirty face:

"Lao Tzu's luck seems to be good? The luck in this game really works. ”

Sure there was no automatic machine gun or laser mesh installed in the hallway, Valkyrie cautiously walked in, black leather boots thumping against the metal floor.

She raised her right hand, and more than a dozen elite mercenaries in full armor suddenly appeared behind her like ghosts.

Led by the Valkyrie, this small army began to invade the mysterious facilities built on the coast.

……

After the blackout, New York quickly returned to its original order.

But even if the outage lasts less than a minute, it still causes at least billions in economic losses.

Almost all companies in New York temporarily stopped working within that minute, and automated trading, which was originally conducted by computers, suddenly stopped without warning.

When power was restored, countless programmers and maintenance staff wailed at the error messages on the screen. After all, in this era when the power system is almost foolproof, they didn't expect a power outage at all.

Immediately after the power outage, the New York police also notified the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and began an investigation into the incident. Try to find the black hand hiding behind the scenes.

But that guy didn't exist at all, and no matter how much they tracked down, they couldn't find any clues of the invasion!

-- Did the "hacker" who hacked into the power grid really exist?

Faced with such a difficult case, even the experts of the FBI began to wonder if this blackout would be just a simple accident.

While they were still investigating, a new morning came.

The morning light gently sprinkled over the metropolis, reflecting the originally dark sky, and as the morning sun rose, the neon lights in the streets and alleys began to gradually extinguish.

A handsome and dashing young man who lives in Queens also slowly opened his eyes as the morning came.

"Hmmm......"

He didn't start brushing his teeth and washing his face like ordinary citizens, but just looked back at the two-story building that had been converted into a military barracks, walked into the dormitory next to it, and reminded, "It's time to get up." ”

"Yes, Chief."

The four mercenaries, who were lying in their clothes, suddenly sat up straight, grabbed the assault rifles placed at the head of the bed, and moved in unison, like ruthless machines.

"Tell the others to get up, it's time to go." On the handsome face of the man, with a stiff outline, a confident smile appeared:

"It's time to kill!" He clenched his fists as he spoke.

――Obviously, it's not an NPC in the game who will make his face look like a "fashion icon", but a player.

As a very cautious guy, the player didn't leave the safe house at night, and spent the night in the impregnable barracks reworking firearms until the wee hours of the morning when he fell asleep in a daze.

He still remembers that last night, around half past ten, a major power outage broke out in this area. According to later news reports, the scope of the outage actually spread to the entire New York City.

Although the sudden power outage is abnormal, in his opinion, it is just a fixed plot event in the game. After all, it is impossible to create an accident of that magnitude just by relying on the player's ability.

――I don't know how many people I can kill today?

Remembering the two poor creatures he had killed in yesterday's scuffle, the man couldn't help but laugh out loud.

It's not the first time he's been to this map, and he's still familiar with the gameplay of this map. Even if someone tried to set a trap, it would be in vain for this cautious fellow!

Two minutes later, ten mercenaries, armed to the teeth, appeared in the still open hall of the barracks, the man nodded in satisfaction, opened the door of the safe house sideways, and said:

"You go out first."

- Every time he left the safe house, he asked the mercenaries to clear the way in front of him, and only then did he get out of the safe house after making sure that there were no traps around the house.

It may seem like a bit of trouble, but it did save his life - once, a mercenary had just left the house when he was blown up by a broadsword mine installed in the doorway!

"Yes."

The mercenaries walked out of the corridor with neat steps, into the small courtyard in front of the safe house, their thick combat boots trampling mercilessly on the lawn.

――Doesn't seem to be a problem?

Thinking of this, the young man also cautiously walked out of the gate of the safe house and stood in the courtyard with the mercenaries.

There were no red dots in the field of vision of the electronic eye, confirming that there were no hostile players within a radius of five hundred meters, and the man finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, suddenly, he noticed a dark red flower pot next to the door.

- Did you have this thing yesterday?

While the player is looking at the flowerpot with a confused gaze, a reconnaissance satellite in orbit over the east coast of the United States is also taking an image of the flowerpot and transmitting it to the wall of Lin Chi's workshop.

"It's your turn." Lin Chi glanced at the crazy Ivan who was standing in front of the door.

After receiving the command, the demoman happily pressed the red button of the remote control in his hand, and the picture of the courtyard captured by the satellite suddenly turned into a large fireball. At the same time, a line of prompts appeared in Lin Chi's field of vision:

The player "Night Sanctioner" was killed by the player "Countercurrent"!

"It's over." Lin Chi stood up as he spoke, cutting off contact with the reconnaissance satellite.

At this time, the players in the seven safe houses that he found last night all died under the trap he set when they left the safe houses!

Lin Chi's number of kills has also increased from the previous four to eleven. The minimum number of kills required by the winning condition "Killer" has long been exceeded.

He knew that as long as he found a place to mix in until all the other players died, he could be the final victor.

However, even if he is a salted fish in the real world, Lin Chi will not play negatively in the game.

After confirming that the seven players he found last night had been killed, Lin Chi turned on the communication device and whispered to the microphone on his collar, "Is No. 7 there?" ”

"Yes." Almost instantaneously, there was a response from the headphones: "Is there something wrong?" ”

"How's the investigation going?" Lin Chi went straight to the point.

"I can't confirm the exact location at the moment, but based on the information I've gotten, the secret base that controls the satellite cannon is likely somewhere on the west side of Staten Island." Seven's reply was quick: "I need time to confirm further." ”

"Then please."

While Lin Chi was talking, he took out an MP5A3 submachine gun he bought last night from his backpack, and skillfully loaded it:

"You continue to investigate the location of the base, and I'll go to Staten Island to have a look."
