Night 2: The First Wave of Bandits (1)
Back to the real world, it's been a long time of unaccustomedness. With the extension of the main war, the dream world of more than a month always makes people feel like a world away every time they wake up, and they can't figure out which side is more like a dream.
Huang Zhi faced the mirror in the hotel bathroom and felt that he was almost schizophrenic. Just before falling asleep in the Sui and Tang dynasties, he was still an ancient man dressed in clothes, unkempt, and unkempt, but now he has become a well-dressed modern person with a shiny hair, and no one can adapt to such changes.
"What kind of world is that?" He finally couldn't help but ask Sima Fuqiang this question again.
Sima Fuqiang looked out the window and pondered for a long time, "I'm afraid it's not just a world." ”
Seeing that the other two were a little confused when they sounded, he quickly explained, "I don't mean that each war dream is a different world, but the dream world seems to be composed of two or three parallel worlds. The first world is our real world, because until now we don't know if we haven't come out of the first long dream; The second world is the "war dream" every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, where the survival of the fittest is carried out on the dreamers; The third world is probably the real dream world, which is the world where our Donghai Town is located. ”
Sima Fuqiang's theory was so shocking that at least Huang Zhi, who had always had a close relationship with him, couldn't digest it for a while.
"I think the third dream world is where the real secret is, we rest and recharge in the first world, and then enter the second world to use the known history to improve ourselves, isn't the ultimate goal all for the world in Tokai Town?" Knowing that his theory has no good basis at present, it can only be regarded as a guess, and Sima Fuqiang does not force the two to accept it.
Huang Zhi believed him. He is convinced of the strategic vision of this war history expert, otherwise the existence of Donghai Town is really a bit abrupt.
Moreover, at present, the dreamers in Donghai Town have walked as far as the bandit camp, and they have never been there any further, nor have they had the opportunity to go. The Dream World restricts the range of movement of the dreamers through a limited mission time, firmly confined them to a radius of fifty miles from Donghai Town. So what about outside of that? Where are the other eight towns in China located? Is it the same for the dream people in Europe and the United States?
There are too many doubts.
In any case, the way to enter the dream of war together has been confirmed. At present, the most pressing problem is how to bring together the players scattered in various places of the East China Sea Seven Team, and only by stabilizing the lineup of the Seven Teams can it be possible to further explore the secrets of the dream world.
The seventh team currently includes Zhang Wei, who is ambushed in the third team, a total of seven people, except for two concentrated in Lucheng, the rest of the team members are scattered in different cities. Although people in dreams spend more and more time in the dream world, after all, everyone has their own real life to live. In order to bring everyone together, someone has to make sacrifices, and not just two.
This issue must be discussed with his teammates after entering the power dream at night, and it is not something that the three of them can decide for everyone.
It is really tiring to have to go to work after the war, and Huang Zhi and Zhang Wei are really envious that Sima Fuqiang still has a vacation to enjoy. After hurriedly saying goodbye to the captain of the seventh team, they went straight to work at the company.
======================== the dividing line between dream and reality =======================
In the third week of Huang Zhi's entry into the dream world, the population of Donghai Town fell to its lowest point. Last night, the three teams lost one more man in the war dream, and after being replenished by two newcomers tonight, they barely reached twenty-five. However, Donghai Town is much more lively, because of the stationing of the town guards, the town has more than 100 people.
However, he and Sima Fuqiang soon discovered the hidden crisis behind this bustle, those town guards who were busy coming and going were preparing for war!
"The bandits are coming!" The two immediately agreed.
The signs of the mission in the dream realm of the forces are becoming more and more obvious, and the two of them even suspect that one day they will no longer need to issue a mission through the town office, and they can clearly feel what is going to happen as long as they enter Tokai Town every night.
Seizing the two-hour preparation time, the two walked around, and made sure that during their absence, the town guards had set up checkpoints on various passages in the town to repel the enemy, and it seemed that the bandits did make a big move tonight.
After looking around, Huang Zhi said to the captain of the seventh team with a solemn face, "Tonight's task must be to stick to the town, so what will happen to the villages outside?" ”
Sima Fuqiang paused for a moment, and had to give him the most cruel answer, "The thieves will definitely not let them go." ”
"We must save them!" Huang Zhi is already quite familiar with these villagers, and although he is not sure whether they are human or not, he does not want them to be victimized.
Sima Fuqiang nodded, "I suspect that our mission tonight is to save the villagers." But you're not afraid of interfering with the normal flow of tasks? ”
Huang Zhi glanced at the clock hanging in the hall of the station, the time displayed by this thing was the countdown of the preparation period, and there was more than an hour left. "Now the rented horses have gone over and told them to take refuge in the town, and they will have time to come back. And when the mission is released, they are still walking on the road, and we can plan according to the situation as it changes. ”
"Okay, let's give it a try." Sima Fuqiang felt that it was not necessarily a bad thing to let the villagers go earlier, "Then you go to the eastern village, and I will let Xiaofeng go to the northeast village." ”
An hour later, Huang Zhi and Xiaofeng rushed to the gate of the town office out of breath, and at this time, the preparation period was almost over, and Sima Fuqiang and the others were standing there waiting for the two.
Seeing that the two finally caught up, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then they entered the town office together.
The mission publisher got up from his seat almost at the end of the combat preparation period, looked at the twenty-five dream people who had arrived in Donghai Town, and then spoke, "According to the report received, the bandit alliance will launch a retaliatory attack on our town tonight, and it is expected that the time will be three hours later, and the next details will be told to you by the commander of the town guard." ”
At this time, people realized in their dreams that the newly elected commander of the town guard last Saturday had come to the town hall at some point, and had been standing quietly behind everyone. At this time, he stepped forward, stood in front of the counter, and nodded to the seventh and eighth teams before starting to introduce the situation.
Noticing these details, Huang Zhi immediately understood that his and Sima Fuqiang's judgment was not wrong. As the direct manager of the location of the command post, it may also be because they have the most votes in the town guard, or both, in short, the seventh team has the highest status in the eyes of the town guard, and the eighth team is the second most important as the manager of the commander's place of origin.
The commander briefed everyone on the basics of the bandit alliance, as well as the defensive measures taken by the town guards, and made arrangements for the teams to assist in the defense in three hours.
After his explanation, the mission publisher did not announce the start of the fighting period, but instead issued a second mission, "Because the town guards need to further improve the defense measures in the town, they really can't send people to notify the villagers to evacuate." So this task is left to the teams. Be sure to rescue as many villagers as possible within three hours, and be sure to return to the town after three hours to help. Above, please execute carefully, and the battle period begins! ”
The battle session finally began, and the rest of the teams were scrambling to get out of the door. Only the seven teams of old gods were sitting in the town office, waiting for Sima Fuqiang and Huang Zhi's next arrangement.
