Chapter 3 Triggers the Hidden Mission: Reach Out to Help
The previous violent explosion ignited the houses in the Japanese camp, so that the flames on the wooden houses danced wildly, and the light was very bright. And Rosen and the others had to walk on the road next to the burning house in order to rush into the battlefield as soon as possible.
Naturally, he doesn't feel anything when he is playing a game, but when he is in it, Lawson can feel the heat emitted from the flames, and his cheeks are a little hot and painful, even from a long distance.
He noticed that the path was far from being as short as in the game, and that it had to be forty or fifty meters long, to say the least.
Despite following the crowd and rushing forward desperately, Lawson was smart enough to stay away from the burning house as much as possible.
This was not only to avoid being burned by the flames, but more importantly, he did not want to walk in the light and become an obvious target. Because he remembers very well that there were a few footbasin devils lurking in ambush near the burning house.
Because his body has been digitized, he is not out of breath even after running for about forty meters, not even a drop of sweat, which allows him to run at high speed while aiming forward with the M1 rifle in his hand while paying close attention to the green virtual crosshair in his field of vision.
Suddenly, Rosen saw the virtual crosshair turn a blinding red. And this is precisely the most obvious hint when enemies appear in the field of view in the game.
The moment he noticed this obvious change, Rosen did not hesitate at all, and had already pulled the trigger.
Bang bang.
The semi-automatic M1 rifle fired four rounds at breakneck speed.
Although the recoil of the rifle is not small, due to the virtual crosshair-assisted calibration, Lawson's four shots did not miss the target and fall into the sky.
"What's going on?! Who shoots! Suddenly hearing the gunshots, the American soldiers in front were all startled, and Roebuck, who acted as the forward, shouted in a low voice, unconsciously with a little anger. Obviously, he regarded Rosen who shot him as a rookie who made a fuss at the slightest fuss and couldn't help but shoot indiscriminately.
"Ahh
But at this moment, there was a scream from behind a large wooden box leaning against the corner of the wall on the opposite side, and then a low figure fell out like a piece of wood.
At the same time, Lawson also heard a pleasant system prompt, plus two pieces of information.
"You shot a footbasin soldier and gained 5 merit points."
"Because you anticipated the enemy's sights in advance and struck first, you were admired by your companions, and your reputation was +1."
When Rosen saw that he only had 5 merit points for killing an ordinary footbasin soldier, he couldn't help but secretly scold the footbasin devil for being too poor and not even giving 1 prestige point. But when he saw the second prompt, he immediately became happy. Although he still doesn't know what reputation is for, it's not always rewarding to be able to get it.
"Lawson, well done!"
"If I knew that your eyesight was so good, I should have made you a top soldier."
……
When the American soldiers beside them saw the dead body lying on the ground, they immediately understood that Rosen's four shots just now were not fired indiscriminately, and naturally they no longer felt that it was wrong for him to do so, and even appreciated his decisiveness.
Because no one had seen the hidden footman before, and he was clearly not hiding a game of peek-a-boo, and when he fired, someone might be killed by him.
Now Rosen preemptively killed him, which is equivalent to saving someone present.
While no one would think they would be unlucky enough to be the spear of the Foot Soldier, they would still be grateful to Rosen. After all, it would be safer to have such a sharp-eyed and quick-handed, good marksmanship by his side.
"Well done!" Roebuck nodded at Rosen.
For everyone's praise, although Rosen was very beautiful in his heart, he only bowed his head slightly to express his gratitude, but the gun in his hand was never put down, and his eyes were keenly scanning the surroundings.
At this moment, the green virtual crosshair turned red again, and Lawson fired four shots in a row without even thinking about it.
This time, Rosen's luck was not as good as before, so he did not kill the enemy. However, his re-firing seemed to give a signal to the others, so several people followed him to gather fire. Then one of the sieve-beaten foot basin soldiers fell to the ground.
"With your help, a Footbasin Soldier is shot and killed, and Merit Points are awarded 2 points."
"Your teammates are happy with your predictions and trust them, and you gain +1 Fame."
"Title: Best teammate trigger, currently 1/10 complete."
"This title can be completed when you support your teammates to complete a certain number of kills. Wearing this title makes it easier to be trusted when meeting allies and new teammates. ”
As Lawson prompted this information at a rapid pace, the team moved forward again.
Although he encountered a few more foot basin soldiers, Lawson did not shoot first. Because he understands the truth of being too late, especially if he performs too well at this time, he is likely to be pushed to the front as a top soldier.
If he is an out-and-out American soldier, and he wants to make a name for himself in the army, it is certainly not a bad thing to be a top soldier, he can show his face and make meritorious contributions, and maybe he can be promoted after a few battles.
But what Rosen needs most now is to live intact, so the last thing he wants to do is to charge forward and be the easiest to be killed by the enemy.
As for the limelight, he is used to Taoguang and obscurity, and he thinks it would be better to let others do it. Compared to small lives, everything else is a floating cloud.
Following the crowd, Rosen came to a small wooden bridge, and at this time, Sergeant Sullivan, who was not far in front of Rosen, shouted: "Brothers, don't let go of any footbasin mongrel!" ”
When Rosen heard this, he saw the scene around him again, and suddenly his eyebrows jumped, and he remembered what was about to happen next, so he cheered up and quickened his pace, he was ready to make a bold attempt, and if it could really succeed, it would definitely be a considerable joy for him.
After rushing down the small wooden bridge that creaked on it, Lawson walked up the stairs towards the house in front of him. The houses here were also set on fire, the flames rose, the smoke billowed out, his nose was sour, and his eyes couldn't help but want to cry.
But Rosen's eyes widened, and he watched vigilantly ahead with his M1 rifle.
Suddenly, as an American GI passed by the door of a wooden house, a fire-covered footbasin soldier suddenly rushed out of it, and with a piercing scream from his mouth, he rushed towards the stunned GI who was caught off guard. If the GI was really pounced, he would have been seriously injured if he hadn't been burned to death.
Rosen remembers that there was such an unlucky guy in the game who was burned alive, as if it was just to show the game's protagonist Miller how cruel war can be, and how crazy and murderous the Footbasin Man is.
But Rosen wondered if he could save this man who would have died. He was even more curious about whether he would get any benefits or rewards from the system if he did this.
Of course, even if there is no benefit to be taken, he will not sit idly by, after all, in the game it is just an inconsequential character, even if he is playing the game, he is powerless to change anything, because he can't do it, but after all, this is a real world, and it is also a living person, Rosen can't know that someone will die and still see death without help.
Bang bang, dang.
As soon as he saw the footbasin soldier who was about to burn into a torch rush out, Rosen, who had long been alert, pulled the trigger and shot out the eight bullets in the magazine in one go. Not only did he spurt the blood of the foot basin soldier, and he retreated again and again, falling heavily to the ground like a burning broken sack, but also saved the soldier with a panicked face.
"Brother, be careful!" Rosen dragged the frightened soldier aside, leaned against the wall to dodge the bullets that might fly, and quickly replaced a new magazine with his hands and feet as he spoke.
Ding dong.
A system chime that Lawson had expected sounded in his head, and a message appeared in the upper left of his field of vision.
"Congratulations on saving a comrade who should have died, and successfully triggering the hidden mission: Reach Out to Help. When you save your comrades who are in danger and on the verge of death, you will receive additional rewards and a high chance of triggering the corresponding mission. ”
"Note: Since this quest is a hidden quest, the rewards are random."
"Saving this teammate gets 50 merit points and +5 reputation."
Seeing this, Rosen suddenly realized a truth from it, saving is far more rewarding than killing. He even wondered if it was the rhythm of the man behind getting him here trying to seduce him in the direction of the Virgin.
Just as this thought came to Rosen's mind, he saw a new message pop up suddenly.
"Trigger the new title: Savior, 1/5 completion, all salvations are worth advocating, because kindness is a virtue that has no great virtue in the world."
"With this title, you will gain positive bonuses to prestige and charisma in certain worlds, and it will be easier to gain favor and help from the good people in your world."
Our Lady, this Nima is definitely the rhythm of Our Lady. When Rosen saw this so-called title, he was speechless, but he was not depressed, after all, there was no harm in having such a title.
Of course, he is naturally not stupid enough to sacrifice himself in order to save others, even if he wants to complete this title, he can only do it within his ability, without harming his own interests.
"Thank you, Rosen, I owe you my life." The soldier who was rescued by Rosen finally settled down after taking a few deep breaths, glanced at Rosen gratefully, and said, "After returning safely this time, I will invite you to drink." ”
"Okay, uh......" Lawson casually agreed, forgetting that he didn't know his name when he tried to call him. However, his brain reaction was not slow, and he hurriedly said: "I was hit on the head after being captured before, so I had some concussions, and I can't remember your name clearly......"
"Ryan." The GI held out his hand to Rosen and said, "Daniel Ryan." ”
