The map loads quickly.

According to the Combine Forces, the Gates of Hell we walked out of were located in a small player settlement far from the city of Seven Maps, and were founded by an unknown Norwegian streamer. As far as the eye can see, the houses and roads are scattered, and the green lighting is also very elegant, which can be called a paradise-like village. The management of the 7th map is completely different from the 4th and 15th maps, and players can build their own cities anywhere, so instead of developing into a large and grand ring spawn complex like the 4th and 15th maps, it presents scattered small city-state settlements.

As a result, the information on the Seven Maps of the Combine Army is very fragmentary and takes a lot of time to integrate.

Christian, Lu Tiantian and Zhang Yechen were originally in charge of the reconnaissance work of the Seven Maps, and they were more familiar with the Seven Maps, which was also the reason why they joined the team. I took them on horseback and walked around the Hell Gate, and they could roughly understand where the Hell Gate was placed in the Seven Maps, so they didn't need to bother to re-explore it. After figuring out his position, I asked Lu Tiantian to quit again, continue to report and record the current situation, and do a good job of memory storage, so as to prevent losing everything like the last time.

As I walked around with them, I found remnants of the previous task force. They demolished the houses in the player's settlement and built a small, semi-ground-level fortress. The fortress is made entirely of cobblestone blocks, which is cost-effective, and it takes electricity to destroy it. Through the structure of the fortress, it can be seen that the fortress is divided into three floors, each with three rooms, enough to accommodate hundreds of people, and it must have been the work of the architects of the Combine Army.

Faced with such a fortress, Christian and I rode around twice and saw 28 gates, but we couldn't find the real entrance. As a member of the task force, I know that every hole that has been opened up has a hidden murderous intention, which looks like a door, but is actually a trap, and if you rush in, you will definitely die back to the point of birth in the next second.

After an initial visit to the fort to no avail, Christian and I joined up with the rest of our teammates outside the fort. I looked up at the rocky fortifications and asked Christian, "You really can't remember, did you build such a thing in the first place?" ”

Christian frowned, stared at the fortress for a long time, and still said with a blank face: "I don't have any impression. But judging from the exterior layout, this must have been built by all 14 of our teams, and according to the rules, the way to enter needs to be decided by all the captains. If it were me, I wouldn't agree to put the entrance outside, so none of the 28 entrances we see are real, they are all traps. ”

"Hmm." I nodded and looked up at the sky. The cube world got dark very quickly, and in a few words, a blush floated in the west, and in two or three minutes it would be dark again.

Lu Tiantian said with some regret: "It would be good if I could spend the night directly in the fortress, maybe there are still valuable things left in the fortress." ”

"Big deal, blow up!" Zhang Yechen turned the flint in his hand, and sparks splashed everywhere, "Blow up a hole, and we can go in casually." ”

I ignored him. Which architect in the Combine can be selected for the task force? It is estimated that there is already a self-destruction system in the fortress, and if Zhang Yechen explodes in front, the entire fortress behind will be wiped out, and there will not even be any slag left.

"For the big operation of the task force of 100 people, there must be a mission log, one copy with you, and one copy in the stronghold. The logs on us are gone, which means we died when we retreated, but there must still be one in the colony. Peter, you'd better not use violent means to get rid of important information! Christian said to Zhang Yechen.

Bu Xin saw that I didn't say anything for a long time, so he rode to the front and asked me, "Why don't you understand?" Do you want my brother to teach you? ”

"Go, go, teach." I said, waving my hand.

"Digging tunnels, don't you like digging tunnels the most?" Bu Xin didn't leave, prompted.

I had a rare urge to praise him, after all, he had been with me for so long, and his head had opened up. It's a pity that he has nine out of ten tricks, and he only knows why he doesn't know why, otherwise it would not be Chenxi who can be the vice captain, but him.

"Okay, how do you dig it?" I asked him with a smile.

"Just ......," Bu Xinla turned his horse's head and pointed to the grass near the fortress, "just make a passage to get in, is it difficult?" ”

"It's hard!" Han Fuyu interjected and said what I wanted to say. She never joined us in the conversation, and kept circling the fortress and the hell gate alone, and only now did she come back, and as soon as she came back, she heard Bu Xin and me.

Although Bu Xin is not afraid of heaven and earth, he is a little cowardly in front of Han Fuyu, after all, people's level and technology are a lot more than him. Han Fuyu didn't talk nonsense with him much, but grabbed the reins of my horse and pulled me to the gates of hell.

"What did you bring me here?" I asked as I grabbed the reins back.

Han Fuyu didn't answer immediately, but rode his horse slowly and walked around the Hell Gate. Her posture was like that of an elegant knightess pacing around the birch, her eyes staring at me with deep meaning.

"Don't you think this hell gate is weird? However, I only think it's weird, and I don't know where it's weird. She went around in a circle and came back to me.

When she said that, I immediately understood. Indeed, as she said, this hell gate was very out of tune with the surrounding environment, extremely rudimentary, as if it had been built temporarily. It stands to reason that if you build a hell gate in the player's village, unless it is in the early stage, you will definitely do some decoration nearby, install guardrails, put flowers and potted plants, add lamps and lighting, etc., and even make a house for it.

The others also followed, and Christian and Han Fuyu and I stared at the hell gate, so he also followed for a while. After a while, he figured it out and said to the two of us, "You don't think that this door is fake, do you?" ”

"No, no, no, I think there's a tunnel under the door." Bu Xin is still entangled in the tunnel, it seems that he has been poisoned too deeply by my tunnel theory, but fortunately, Lu Tiantian grabbed him in time, otherwise this kid would definitely dig immediately.

"Fake? I just don't think this door is quite right with the surroundings, but why do you say it's fake? Han Fuyu was very interested in Christian's words.

I saw that Christian also saw it, and I admired it very much, so I explained to Han Fuyu on his behalf: "Because this gate is not the original one, but they built it." ”

"Them?" Even if Han Fuyu had some understanding, he didn't understand the reason.

"I'm right. As one of the last people to come here, I have lost my memory, but I think that if it were me, I would definitely agree with this subtle suspicion. Christian said.

Han Fuyu was confused by the pronouns that Christian and I exchanged for each other, and couldn't figure out who "he" and "I" were referring to, and said impatiently: "Okay, I don't understand." ”

Christian and I looked at each other and smiled. Others don't understand, but the two of us clearly understand it in our hearts, and immediately arrange for the team members, leaving Zhang Yechen alone in Qitu, preparing a diamond pickaxe to knock out the hell gate, and the rest of the people follow me back to hell, and then enter Qitu after the door is knocked off.

The team members couldn't figure out what Christian and I were going to do, and they didn't have to go back or destroy the door not long after they came out of hell, but they still did it.

After passing through the barrier and returning to Hell, the pigmen who guarded the gates of Hell were shocked to see us, and the two pigmen who had evolved to awaken asked us what we were doing when we came back, and said that Grace had been taken away, so don't come and pester him again. After briefly explaining the situation to them, I saw that the time was about the same, and led the team back to the Hell Gate.

The second time you enter the seventh map, the surrounding area is no longer the player's village house, but a cold and damp underground passage, which is exactly the same as the bunker, and even the horse sneezes.

"This ...... Where is this? Bu Xin looked confused, "I'll go, there is still this kind of operation?" ”

"Guys, we're inside the fortress!" Christian announced loudly, and with that, he took the lead and ran up the stairs of the passage.

As Christian said, we have entered the inside of the fortress as we see it outside.

Han Fuyu looked around, let out a long "oh", smiled, patted me on the shoulder and praised, "Yes." When I first heard Xuan'er and Xiao Chen talk about you, I was still a little skeptical, but when I look at it today, you still have something. You're a good guy, you just can't fight, and you don't look good. ”

I smiled and didn't speak. I have to say that the captains of the last batch of 14 task forces are all human spirits, and this ecstasy is not only about artificial intelligence, but also about their own people. Who would have thought at once that there were two hell gates in this place, and that they were connected to the same hell gate in hell? After the task force came out of Gate B, they built a fortress at the location of the original B Gate, and set up Gate C outside the fortress, so that Gate A became connected to Gate C, making Gate B a dead door. If you want to enter the fortress, you must destroy Gate C, activate Gate B, and enter through the Hell.

In other words, as soon as Gate C was built, the fortress no longer had an entrance. If anyone who stays outside to activate or destroy Gate C wants to enter the fortress, the people inside the fortress must close the defense of the fortress, and only a single person will never enter the fortress directly.

It's a genius design, I don't know who came up with it, if we had made the C-door a little more natural, we would have to spend the night outside tonight.

Christian took Bu Xin and Lu Tiantian into the fortress, and went to take Zhang Yechen, and only me and Han Fuyu were left in the noisy underground passage, as well as the low-humming hell gate.
