Chapter 112: Arrival
In terms of hardware, everyone has been fully prepared, and the "software", that is, intelligence gathering, has not been left behind.
Through Lin Yuxian's news, Zhongheng learned a shocking news from the evolutionary forum on the dark web:
Evolutionaries and sub-evolutionaries all over the world have received mission information, and there is more than one place where the mission is performed, that is, the entrance to the so-called virtual space.
It seems to be managed according to the division of regions, where the evolutionaries of a certain area have to go to a certain designated location to perform a mission, and can only go to this place, and go to other places will be considered to be automatically invalid, just like online games will open different servers for people in different regions.
For example, Halong Bay, where Zhong Heng and the others are going, is in charge of the evolutionaries of the entire Southeast Asia and some southern provinces of China, and there are as many as twenty or thirty missions like this in the world.
There are too many people, and there are so many equipment to bring, the most convenient way - to take Lin Yuxian's car and drive stealth at the border and slowly fly over from a low altitude is naturally not feasible.
Therefore, Zhong Heng and others chose the No. 2 plan: the soldiers were divided into two ways.
All the seats in the back of the car were dismantled and all equipped with equipment, Lin Yuxian and Li Xu went the old way, and the rest of the people walked with Zhang Jiawei, and took the car arranged by the rich second generation to leave the country normally in the name of border travel, and then converged at that end.
With three days to go before the start of the mission, everyone set out on their journey.
The road was very smooth, Lin Yuxian and Li Xu arrived at the agreed waiting place in just over a day, and the people who followed closely followed were also about the same, and the only thing that took some time was when they left the country.
Except for TX, the remaining housekeepers had no identity, and there were many people in the hall who were not good at using information blockers, so everyone had to wait silently, and when the exit gate was about to close, there were few people left, so that the housekeeper would be incognito and blend in behind him.
There are also insects that are not good at leaving Zhongheng's side and can't pass the security check, all of them are packed in large bags and let Xiaoqian sneak over with stealth.
After crossing the border, taking a minibus arranged by Zhang Jiawei, Zhong Heng and others successfully met with Lin and Li at the agreed place, at the corner of a secluded mountain road.
Under the dark night, the mountains and forests of Vietnam are as calm as usual, but the previous experience has made Zhong Heng smell that this area has begun to be no longer peaceful:
Not counting the way from Yangcheng to the border, just while waiting at the border, six or seven evolutionaries who entered from this entrance appeared on the sensor module.
The first time I went abroad, after entering this strange country, passing through a border town, there were forty or fifty red dots on the induction module, dense like red rashes, and most of the red dots were located in hotels in the town.
It is estimated that after entering Vietnam, there was a prompt on the attribute panel of "no conflict, otherwise it will be erased", these people got along very well, and they didn't fight, and Zhong Heng even saw two evolutionaries who didn't know each other from the car window After talking face-to-face, he found a barbecue stall on the side of the road and sat down, and after ordering food, he began to call brothers and sisters to fight wine.
Among the dozens of evolutionaries, there seems to be a small team like Zhong Heng and others, Zhong Heng also happened to meet the night market to catch up with the market, three or five evolutionaries got together, and actually bought local products in the night market, one by one smiling brighter than flowers, without a little nervous look on their faces, as if they were not here to perform a task, but to travel.
The town has a population of only twenty or thirty thousand, and there are dozens of evolutionaries gathered, how many more will you encounter in the future?
In order to avoid extraneous branches, everyone turned on the information blocker throughout the whole process, and did not stay too much in the town, and passed quickly after a meal, until the successful meeting, the red dot on the induction module has not disappeared, and basically everywhere you go, you can sense the extremely rare "compatriots" in the past, they are either resting or on the road like everyone else.
"How many evolutionaries are there on this mission?"
When approaching the boundary of Halong Bay, Zhong Heng couldn't help but sigh.
At least four or five hundred evolutionaries from various countries, although they are all three low-level such as zero, one, two, etc., together they are also a terrifying force, even if there are system constraints to maintain restraint, but it is absolutely impossible to say that they can not make some trouble.
For all this, the Vietnamese government seems to be blind, Quan Dang has not seen anything, neither strengthened the management of the border, nor set up checkpoints on the road, and has not even sent a little extra military and police into this area destined to become a powder keg to maintain order and respond to emergencies.
Even if it is a celebrity concert, the police must be sent to maintain order, and it is absolutely abnormal to not see anything along the way, so that Zhong Heng has to wonder if the existence behind this system and the Vietnamese government have done some kind of py deal.
It's calm, it's so calm, it's all unusually calm!
After the strengthened keen senses, he finally had a faint sense of unwillingness, he was not very eager to get any benefits from the mission now, he only hoped that this time he could bring everyone back safely, and there would be no more tragedy of attrition during the first meeting.
After entering the boundaries of Ha Long Bay, a map will automatically appear on everyone's property panel, with the destination and past route marked on it, and there is an icon with a countdown to the start of the mission with more than ten hours left below.
And what is surprising is that the location that everyone wants to go to is actually different, if they can't arrive in time, even if the mission fails, so that Zhong Heng and the others are dumbfounded for a moment:
They form a team, don't they just want to take care of each other, what kind of trouble are you dismantling people, and how to solve it in case of emergencies?!
But when they think about it, they are also relieved:
"There must be a fair mechanism for this task, so many of us get together, it's a team, and there are so many weapons, it's definitely efficient to cooperate with each other to farm monsters, and it's definitely unfair to other evolutionaries at the beginning." Zhao Cheng, who played the most games, analyzed and guessed
"It's definitely impossible for no one in the balance to have this mission, think about it, if the balance, the world's largest evolutionary organization, has a team of dozens or hundreds of people to take this copy, then will the rest of the people still have a chance to get a piece of the pie, so the system will definitely break us up, as for whether we can gather in the future, it depends on our luck."
"So what do we do now, do we only let one or two people enter that virtual space, and the rest of us wait outside or wait separately in their respective locations first, and then see if we can meet after entering?" Li Xudao.
"Anyway, I'm waiting for you outside, because the doctor didn't come, I'm the housekeeper, and I can't participate alone, and I didn't enter the passage." TX said coldly.
After thinking about it, he finally said: "I think it's better for everyone to go in, after all, so many preparations have been made." ”
"Anyway, the system stipulates that no internecine killing is allowed between evolutionaries, and there is no risk after entering, but before entering, you must be careful of third-party forces, such as rulings or the movements of the Vietnamese government, but since this system dares to do tasks here, it is estimated that it has been dealt with, and the Vietnamese military and police who have not seen much on the road are probably examples."
"We are here, even Zhao Cheng is already level 1, and many people's entry points seem to be in crowded downtown areas, as long as we turn on the information blocker and keep it stealthy, it should be fine." Final Balance Analysis.
"Then it's decided, the task is to start at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon, let's keep a low profile and go to the city first, and I'll send you to your mission point at noon tomorrow, everyone will take some equipment and wait there incognito." Lin Yuxian said.
“ok!”
After spending the night peacefully in a suburban hotel with the information jammer on, everyone began to go to their respective mission points.
Ha Long Bay is a tourist city, and it is the off-season, so it stands to reason that there are not many tourists at all, but today's streets are unusually prosperous, which makes the business vendors staggered:
Why are there hundreds of tourists all of a sudden?!
Most of these tourists are loners, rarely greet each other, walk on the road like ghosts, and most of them carry bags that seem to contain something, and some even pull huge suitcases that are taller than people.
Of course, what surprised them the most was that these "tourists" neither went to scenic spots nor bought much, but had a new face every other section, standing or sitting, or patrolling back and forth in an area, as if waiting for something.
In December, when there is no monsoon, Ha Long Bay in the tropics is unusually dry, and the sun in the sky is scorching, scorching hot and steaming hot.
A few seabirds flew sporadically in the air, chirping weakly, and the windless sea lazily and occasionally lapping the foaming waves on the shore, making people feel as irritable as the climate.
The sky, because the sun hid behind a cloud, had gradually darkened, and under the gloomy canopy, on the hologram of the sensor module, was such a scene: more than a thousand flickering red dots, dotted around, each representing a face waiting quietly, hiding the intention of killing.
There is 1 minute left before the passage opens.
"Ah Yuan, are you afraid?" Beside him, Zhang Jiawei said a little nervously.
I don't know if it's because he is the entourage of the final balance, but his entry point is the same as the final balance.
"Don't come if you're afraid, you won't go in if you go outside this circle now!" Zhong Heng said angrily, and finally checked the equipment in his hand.
His group may not be the best equipped, but it is indeed the most crowded, which gives the final balance full confidence:
Anyway, the highest level of participation in this mission is only level 2, and who of them can be stronger than my team?
Final Heng, Zhang Jiawei, Xiaoqian, the entry point of the three people is in a location in the suburbs, each of them took an AK, a shotgun, 5 grenades, and an electromagnetic cannon.
After changing the hot and quiet surroundings, swallowing a little saliva to relieve the tension, finally Heng heard the familiar voice:
The 30-second countdown to the start of the task is about to open, please do not leave the designated entrance area......
