Chapter 7: Speculation
At night, vehicles are speeding on the highway.
The black Volkswagen driven by Li Xing was in front, followed by two cars of guard personnel.
Weston looked at the car following behind him through the rearview mirror, "Relax, don't drive too fast, let them catch up." ”
Li Xing calmed down a little and slowed down the car as he said.
The distance between the two cars gradually narrowed, Weston opened the window, the howling cold wind poured in, and a bomb appeared out of thin air in his hand, which he threw out of the window at will.
Three seconds later, the explosion sounded, Li Xing stepped on the brakes, reversed back to the scene of the explosion, and the two got out of the car.
There was an extra pit in the ground, which was not too big or small, and the ground was full of rubble. The timing of the Weston explosion was well controlled, just enough to blow up two cars, but not the cars.
Weston came to a car, crouched down, checked the inside, and began to pick up the equipment from the guards.
After being busy for a while, he turned around and saw that Li Xing was still standing there, and said, "Help, why are you stunned?" ”
Li Xing nodded a little unnaturally and walked over to help.
Five minutes later, the two returned to the car and continued to set off for the Huayuan Chemical Plant.
There was some silence in the car, and Weston looked at Li Xing's side face: "What, I can't bear it?" ”
Li Xing frowned, did not speak, and flashed in his mind the faces of several guards who did not know whether they were alive or dead.
Weston smiled, "Okay, then I'll give you a free psychotherapy." ”
Li Xing raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at the other party: "You were a wanted criminal before you came in, right?" ”
Wei Sidong ignored Li Xing's taunt, "I told you before that the response method of the H City Guard is very mechanical, like a computer program performing a mission. ”
"But they're real people." Li Xing shook his head and said.
"It seems so, but I looked up some information on the Internet today, and found that most of the information on the Internet is consistent with our real life, but everything related to the history of the city and related content is very vague, or it is not found at all."
"What do you want to say?" Li Xing asked.
Weston's eyes were hot: "This shows that we have not come to another time and space, nor is it a parallel world. There's a good chance that the city we're in was created out of thin air! In this game, we only need to keep blowing up the target, and it doesn't involve the city itself, so the makers didn't set the details of the city in detail, but just roughly provided us with a place to play. ”
"Is there really a god in this world?" Li Xing recalled what the nightingale said.
"No!" Weston said, "Compared to the omnipotent god, such a method is more like man-made!" ”
"You're saying that someone is manipulating all this behind the scenes, and in order to save trouble, so the makeshift city is not perfect in the details?" As a writer, Li Xing's brain hole in this area can still keep up with Weston's thinking.
Weston smiled: "We'll be able to confirm it in a moment." ”
"So you're treating everyone in this city as an NPC?" Li Xing turned the topic back.
Weston shrugged: "Why not?" ”
Li Xing was silent, he was not a cold-blooded killer, nor was he a bandit with a fierce temperament, and he was not really playing a game, even if he was involved in Weston's plan, he still felt uncomfortable.
Li Xing suddenly laughed at himself, he remembered an infinite stream novel he had read, in which someone asked the male protagonist a sentence: In order to live, are you willing to dirty your hands? The actor said yes, and the man then asked: Is that willing to dirty his heart? The male protagonist didn't answer, and finally understood one thing.
After all, it's just that the strength is not enough!
Li Xing clenched his hand holding the steering wheel, and the speed of the car became faster and faster. Weston turned his head to look at him, but didn't speak.
Twenty minutes later, the two drove to the Huayuan Chemical Plant.
"Are you coming or am I coming?" Wiston asked.
According to the previous agreement between the two, the next cooperation, the two take turns to blow up the target to obtain points.
"Come on." Li Xing said indifferently.
Hearing this, Weston was not polite, and a bomb flew out of the window.
Rumble! The gates of the chemical plant were blown to smithereens.
Li Xing has been staring at the changes in the standings, and in the next second, the player who is ranked thirty-first and number 15741072 has increased by 20 points to 80 points.
Li Xing looked at Wei Dong in some surprise, I saw you pointing at the country before, but the points were less than half of my brother's.
Wei Sidong was a little annoyed by Li Xing, and his eyes widened: "What to see, I said that the first round is to let players get familiar with the game and figure out the rules, and the next two rounds are the big ones!" ”
Li Xing smiled: "Yes, yes, you are right." ”
"How many points do you have now?" Weston asked unhappily.
"Me? More than 100 points. Li Xing pretended to be casual and said, smiling secretly in his heart, although he knew that what Wei Si Dong said was right, and most of the other party's first round was spent on probing intelligence, but being able to overpower Wei Sidong still made Li Xing feel very cool.
After blowing up the target, the two did not turn around and drive back to the city, but continued to drive forward.
There are several reasons for choosing Huayuan Chemical Plant: First, there are fewer vehicles at night, and it will be much faster to go to the suburbs. Second, deliberately attracting guards to take the opportunity to obtain some equipment. Third, there are things that Weston needs to verify.
The rules of the game say that all the objectives of this game are in H City, but there is no rule that players cannot leave H City. Huayuan Chemical Plant is located in the easternmost part of the map of H City, and Weston is here to take the opportunity to verify it and see if it can drive the car out of H City.
In fact, when Li Xing had a full map vision, he tried to see if he could see the situation outside H City, but he couldn't do it. At first, he thought that the plug-in itself could only work in H City, but now after listening to Weston's analysis, he realized that it is very likely that this "world" is only so big.
After Li Xing drove east for a few minutes, his pupils dilated and his expression was a little strange.
Wei Sidong, who had been staring at the navigation, was also shocked, and he looked at Li Xing in surprise: "We changed directions?" ”
Li Xing glanced at the arrow on the navigation, the vehicle was still driving east a second ago, and in this second, the direction has changed 180 degrees and turned westward!
The two of them didn't feel anything unusual in the car, Li Xing looked down from the air through the small window, and didn't find anything abnormal, just drove it, and the direction of the car changed.
"Turn around and try again!" Weston said.
Li Xing turned the car around, and after a few minutes, the direction changed to the west again. Li Xing can be sure that he has not moved the steering wheel and has been walking in a straight line.
"Now it seems that my guess may be right." Weston said slowly, "This is not a parallel world, it is not a different time and space, this world may just be improvised to provide us with a game, just like making a movie and setting up a scene temporarily. ”
