As the man stepped onto the portal, he patted the girl on the shoulder—and the girl was relieved to see that it was him—to get her out of the place, and then ordered the magicians and clerics who were still working in front of the flashing black lightning portal, trying to restore control, to abandon their efforts to close the portal.

"You guy! Who is it? Why close the portal! Hurry up and fix it! One player was not happy and shouted loudly, and there was a chorus of echoes around him.

"I'm the Teleportation Hall Manager, or you could call me the GM." The man said without changing his face.

There was a sudden silence around.

Agni had long found out that this person was not like the natives of this world, and he was not a player, so he could only be a member of the Chosen One Company in the real world.

"At present, the company's technical staff is checking the status of the server, please be patient, wait patiently for the official announcement, and please don't make unreasonable moves towards NPCs!" The GM continued, "If you attack a service NPC for no reason, then I will enable GM permission to kick the attacker out of the game and ban them for three days!" ”

The noisy players stopped talking, and if they were banned on the spot, even if the complaint was successful, the losses caused could only be eaten by themselves, which was too cost-effective.

"It's been a few hours, and you haven't issued an announcement, we have the right to know the truth!" One player screamed.

"We already know the basic situation, please wait another ten minutes, we will post announcements on the bulletin boards everywhere, so stay tuned." GM said, "The company will compensate you for the specific damages in due course, so please don't crowd the portal hall and obstruct other portal users." Please go back and be patient! Thank you! ”

With the GM's assurance, the portal has been completely closed, and players who have no reason to continue making trouble can only disperse.

"The portal can't be used...... Can you only wait for the official announcement? Agni muttered unwillingly.

"The announcement won't tell you the real truth," Falling Rain said disapprovingly, then waved his hand, "You wait for me for a while." ”

Agni watched the rain catch up with the GM and didn't know what he was talking about. After a while, Falling Rain beckoned to him, motioning for him to follow, and the three of them made their way into one of the GM's offices and reception rooms.

"Can you tell us about the situation of 'hang-up' in a large area of Cologneburg?" After sitting down, Luo Yu asked, "Of course, it's not those perfunctory rhetoric of ordinary players. ”

"Of course, Miss Luoyu, it's your right." GM said with a hint of respect.

Agni still had some doubts about GM's attitude in his heart, but now it was more important to Cologne and the Black Tulip Brigade, and he didn't have the idea of asking, just listened to GM's explanation.

"The reason for the widespread 'hang' comes from a bug that caused the local system to be forced offline when the source of erosion expanded, but for unknown reasons, the player did not pop up when the system went offline, but all members stayed in the erosion bubble. Now the situation is very awkward, and the technicians are working hard to repair it, trying to get the system back online. ”

"......" Luoyu quietly glanced at the flames, and then spoke, "We don't care about the reason, how to deal with this problem now?" ”

"It will take time for the system to come back online," the GM replied, "and in the meantime, it's better for players who are stuck in a 'hanging' state not to go offline or get killed, otherwise - you know. ”

GM didn't go into too much detail, and it was clear that Falling Rain knew something. Agni looked at GM, then turned to look at Falling Rain, and finally leaned back on the couch without saying anything.

"How many hours?" Luoyu asked.

"Twelve...... No, ten hours is enough if it goes well. GM said.

The corners of Luoyu's mouth twitched, and he held his forehead with one hand, "Ten hours...... In addition, in the past, many people were online for more than 14 hours, even if the body's metabolism decreased under deep sleep, it was difficult for a strong person to be online for such a long time. ”

GM could only smile bitterly, the European division of the Chosen One was doomed to bleed in compensation.

"Is there a way to shorten the time?" Luoyu asked.

"Yes, ......yes," the GM hesitated for a moment, then said, "Unless Cologne destroys the source of erosion internally, it will only take twenty minutes for the system to come back online, but I think it's difficult." Not to mention the player's own ability, even the ability of Cologneburg's own super-level is enough. ”

Luo Yu was about to say something, but was preempted by the flames.

"I'll go!" "I'll go to Fort Cologne and destroy the so-called source of erosion!" ”

"......" GM was stunned.

Luoyu looked at Agni, and Agni looked at her eyes without flinching, and after a while, Falling Rain spoke: "This is very dangerous, and the gap in combat power is too big, it is likely that you will not be able to make a splash if you go." ”

"Tell me what the target looks like and I'll find it." The fire did not waver.

“…… This is no ordinary death, and there is a risk that your phantom limb will be irreversibly damaged. Luo Yu looked at him expressionlessly and continued.

"If I flinch because of possible danger in the face of what I am capable of, it will not be who I am now." Agni said something that outsiders couldn't understand, but unexpectedly, Falling Rain seemed to understand.

"Whew......" Luoyu looked away, exhaled, and then turned to GM, "Is the bubble wall formed?" ”

"I was cut off by the wall thirty minutes ago - Miss Falling Rain, I don't think your companion could do such a thing!" GM objected.

"He can't do it, but he can add me." Falling rain showed a smile.

GM was stunned, he knew the inside story well, and quickly stopped: "Miss Luoyu, this is too risky!" ”

Agni didn't expect that Luoyu would actually go with him, "Luoyu, you...... There's no need to venture with me. ”

Ignoring their dissuasion, Luoyu stood up and stretched out his hand to GM, "The bubble wall should not be stable enough now, you can bring me a scroll of 'Six Pillars of Thunder'." ”

GM opened his mouth wide and stammered, "But...... This is transcendental...... It is now not allowed to be handed over to the player......"

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm here to help you solve the problem!" Luo Yu frowned and said.

Eventually, Falling Rain walked away with a reel made of indiscernible material with a faint blue glow, and Agni couldn't help but sympathize with him when he looked at the GM's tangled appearance.

Agni followed the rain down the hall into the hall, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Agni." Falling rain suddenly stopped around the corner, did not look back, and called his name.

"Huh?" Agni quickly stopped.

"Don't let anyone know what you just heard." Falling rain said softly.

"Of course." Agni nodded, but asked puzzled, "If you don't want others to know, why do you want me to know?" ”

Falling Rain turned around, and Agni saw her smiling.

"You'll find out in the future."
