Chapter 9: The Breakout
In the following month, Lianzi and Zhuo Yong conducted simulated combat training in this dream house every day, and their progress was also rapid, and now they can challenge opponents with a difficulty level of 27. And Schenck didn't bother them during this time, only occasionally came here to watch the two of them practice. When he saw the growth speed of the two brothers, he was also amazed, he didn't expect that in just one month, they could already challenge the difficulty of level 27, although the full level was level 39, but they could defeat level 27 opponents, and they could also be alone in the dream world. Schenck silently smiled inwardly and gave a thumbs up to the two young men who were still in high school.
This night, Schenck came to the dream house early in the morning, and waited quietly on the side, and when Zhuo Yong and Zizi recovered from the end of the simulated combat training, Schenck clapped his hands and walked up to them and said: "You two have performed well, you can successfully challenge the 30 level difficulty in a month, it is really impressive, I think you two will definitely have a big achievement in the future." Okay, let's not talk too much, I came today to have good news to tell you, I have already shown the video of your training to my superiors for review a few days ago, and today my superiors approve that you two can follow me to officially start the mission. Take it, these two sets are the two of you Dream Bearer's robes - the white holy clothes, and these two daggers, which are also the Dream Holder's standard equipment when performing tasks - the Divine Blade. Although the dagger is only 30 centimeters, it is an indispensable tool in the mission. It has two functions, the first is that this dagger can release a powerful electric current, which will interfere with the enemy's brain waves after piercing the enemy's body, so that he can be prevented from continuing to use his potential through the brain, and the second function is that a controller will pop up at the lower end of the dagger grip, this controller can erase the memories of others, and it can also eliminate the enemy's developed potential, it is very simple to use, you will understand it when you study it. Okay, that's all, let's gather in the headquarters lobby tomorrow night, and I'll take the two of you to officially start the mission. Schenck said as he handed the two their clothes and daggers, then threw down the two of them, who were still surprised and dazed, and turned to leave.
The boy couldn't wait to play with the dagger, "Yes, it's not in vain after working hard for so long, and I also gave a set of clothes and a dagger, which is better than giving a fart." ”
Zhuo Yong replied, "What fart?" ”
The boy said: "I don't know what a fart is when I live so big?" Come on, you lower your head and I'll turn into a fart and show you. ”
Zhuo Yong pushed the bag away, and both brothers laughed. After the laughter, he continued: "But then again, even if you give me a fart, as long as you can go out quickly to perform the task, Lao Tzu can go to the dream to see what the answer to the most important exam in life is, and then Lao Tzu will pinch his waist with his left hand, and his right hand will dance to the sky and say to his brothers, come on, brother will take you to pretend to take you to fly!" ”
Zhuo Yong rolled his eyes and sighed, "You guy is already in the advanced stage of madness, in your words, stay away from me, Smecta, you and I will go home separately......"
He turned his head to stare at Zhuo Yong, and said with an unconvinced expression: "Hey, what's wrong with the madman, the madman can come up with such a good plan, and the madman can be a dream obsessive, can you?" Tell you, don't take the crazy major of Lanxiang Vocational and Technical School in your eyes, I'm a top student. ”
Zhuo Yong was really helpless, quickly picked up his clothes and dagger, shouted Ming'er to see him, and then left as if he had fled, leaving only the unfinished hand, standing in place.
The next day, Zhuo Yong and Zhuo Zi were dressed in white holy clothes and wore holy blades, and came to the headquarters hall together, Schenk was already waiting here, seeing the two of them, Schenk first looked up and down, and then nodded with a smile and said, "Well, yes, it looks like you wear a battle robe." Come on, come with me, and take you to the command center to pick up the mission. After saying that, Schenk turned around and led the two to the command center on the third floor.
This is a large room, the overall layout is the same as the lecture hall, one floor after another, densely arranged, there are more than a dozen rows, and each row has more than 20 office positions. When the three of Schenck entered, the whole room was full of people in white, like a small waterfall pouring down. However, it is slightly different from the lecture hall in that there is a very large circular jogging platform in the center of the whole room, and in the middle of the jog platform is placed a rectangular office desk about 3 meters long and 2 meters wide. On the wall directly opposite the gate, there is a huge screen, and the left and right sides of the screen and the walls on the left and right sides are covered with countless small screens, each screen is playing a different picture, which is dazzling, presumably it is the dream of many people.
Schenk led the two of them down the stairs in the middle of the room to the circular platform, and after greeting one person, he introduced the two to Zhuo Yong: "This is Colonel Erikson, who is in charge of monitoring dreams and distributing tasks. Colonel, these two are the newcomers I brought, Zhuo Yong on the left, and Liu Yan on the right. ”
Erikson looked in the direction of Schenck's finger, also carefully looked at the two of them, and then said, "Captain Schenck, these are the two children you talked about earlier?" Take them on a mission today? ”
Schenck also looked at the two of them with a smile at this time: "Yes, Colonel, it's the two of them." ”
At this time, Zhuo Yong was a little nervous, smiled unnaturally and then nodded to say hello to Erikson, the arm next to him was even more strange, he stood upright, saluted and then said in unison with Zhuo Yong: "Colonel Erikson, hello." ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhuo Yong immediately turned his head and looked at the man in a daze, thinking, this guy took the wrong medicine again today, and couldn't help but ask in his heart, "Is your brain watt?" Eriksen didn't care, but laughed heartily: "Hahaha, the young man is full of energy, not bad!" ”
Schenk also laughed, and whispered to Erikson: "These two boys are two living treasures, but their potential is still quite good, today is the first time I took them on a mission, give them a simple one to practice." ”
Elekson replied in a low voice: "I also know a little about the situation of the two of them, plus with you Schenk here, wouldn't the simple task be too boring?" ”
Schenck waved his hand: "It's the first time I've brought newcomers, and there are still some things that I haven't explained to them clearly, so let's do a few simple tasks first, first, to familiarize them with the task process, and second, to make up for what I haven't introduced." ”
Erikson nodded in acceptance, then turned around and dragged his hand on the console, thousands of dreams quickly swept across the console screen with his dragging, after flipping through a few times, he pointed a little and then pushed up, a dream picture zoomed in, Erikson said: "Schenk, this is your mission tonight, there is a shuttle in the dream, there is no action at the moment, you take the newcomer here." ”
Schenk looked down: "Thomas? Must, knowing the colonel, let's go. ”
Erikson nodded and motioned for Schenck to go. Schenk waved his hand for Zhuo Yong and Zizi to follow: "Let's go, Thomas?" Muster, he is the master of tonight's dream, and this is your first mission, so we will protect his dream tonight. Before the words fell, the red light in the command center flashed, accompanied by a piercing alarm, and he was startled: ", it's on fire?" Schenck waved his hand and said as he walked, "Something is on fire, this is an alarm that there is a virtual wanderer maliciously changing the dreams of others." This command center will monitor the dreams of everyone in the area every day, if someone sneaks into someone else's dream, the command center will filter out this dream, if the virtual wanderer uses his potential to change other people's dreams in the dream, the alarm will sound, and then Colonel Erickson will send the dream keeper to enforce the law. Alright, let's go, it's time for us to go on a mission. ”
Zhuo Yong and Zizi quickly followed Schenk, at this time, the excitement and excitement of the two were intertwined, as if it was a flood that burst the embankment, pouring down from the hearts of the two, and the excitement was indescribable, after all, the two of them had been training for so long, and today they were finally going to carry out the mission, and they had finally become a formal dream holder.
Following Schenk, the three of them passed through the shuttle door and came to Thomas's dream. The three of them stood in the air after entering the door, and Zhuo Yong and Yuzi looked around, they were standing on a piece of sea. As far as the eye can see, the blue one, the sea and the sky are integrated, making it impossible to tell whether it is water or sky, this is really: the fog locks the mountain, the mountain locks the fog, and the sky even the water tails the sky. In the distance, in the sunlit sea, a white ship sailed, and it was impossible to tell its size because it was like a leaf floating in it compared to the endless sea.
Schenck said, "You two are not bad, the anti-gravity potential is being used very well. You see, this is Thomas's dream, and I think he should be on that cruise ship. This mission is not difficult, the command center has found a shuttle in this dream by monitoring the dream, and he has not made any moves for the time being, so we should not act rashly. As long as he doesn't change the dream of the dream owner, let's leave him alone. ”
Zhuo Yong asked, "What is a shuttle?" Is it someone who can enter other people's dreams? ”
Schenck replied, "Yes, as long as they keep to themselves, we don't need to pay attention to them, because the vast majority of shuttles don't know that they have entered other people's dreams, but they have unknowingly opened their subconscious abilities, so most of them just think that this is their own dream, and when the dream is almost over, they will leave." But if they start to do anything bad, then they will become vanity-wanderers, and then we need to protect the dream master's dream through law enforcement. ”
The boy answered: "Damn, then what are we, Little Eight Road?" I don't see the devil and don't hang the strings, this is, let's go, anyway, the devil didn't come, let's go up and eat and drink first, I'm hungry......" Schenck nodded, and the three of them teleported to the deck of the cruise ship.
I didn't feel anything from afar, but when I was really in it, I realized that it was not a leaf floating on the sea, but a luxury cruise ship of tens of thousands of tons. The trio teleported to the aft deck of the cruise ship, where there was an open-air swimming pool surrounded by sunbeds and a bar serving drinks not far away. At this time, the sun was shining and the weather was clear, so there were a lot of people on this open-air deck, some people were sunbathing, some people were drinking and laughing, and there were couples taking pictures at the protective fence next to the boat, everyone was enjoying this wonderful time, so no one noticed the sudden appearance of the three people.
came to the bar and ordered, the three of them found a corner and sat down, and Schenck spoke: "There are so many people here, I just looked at it and didn't dream master Thomas?" The figure of Muster. Remember what I said before, in dreams, people and vehicles will only appear in places where the dream owner's eyes and hearing can reach, so the dream owner should not be far from here. But the shuttle is in trouble, and I need to contact the headquarters to determine his location. Schenck began to talk using a radio injected into his neck: "Headquarters, Schenck has entered Thomas?" Must's dream, where the environment is complex, requires the specific location of the dream owner and the shuttle. ”
After a few moments, there was a response from headquarters: "Captain Schenk, please wait...... Well, it has been confirmed that Thomas, the owner of the dream, is shopping in the shopping street on the top floor of the cruise ship, and the shuttle is dining in the passenger restaurant on the third floor of the cruise ship, and there is no action for the time being. Schenck answered and ended the call.
After listening to the radio contact, Zhuo Yong asked Schenck about his next move, and Schenk thought for a while and said: "The space here is too big, and the terrain is too complicated, so we need to act separately, I will monitor and protect Thomas, the dream master, and you two will go to find the shuttle." In the dream world, most of the shuttles will also have the same virtual characters around them as here, so you two don't need to be nervous and natural, don't act rashly after finding it, just wait and see what happens, and we will keep in touch no matter what the situation. ”
Zhuo Yong and Xiaozi nodded in understanding, then got up and walked towards the restaurant on the third floor. As soon as he left Schenk's sight, he began to ruffle: "Cripple, I find it very exciting to be a dreamer, not only can you be a superman, but you can also travel everywhere, and now you are on a luxury cruise ship, it's really a great job." ”
Zhuo Yong glanced at him: "Let me tell you, this is the first time we are on a mission, please be serious, or you take a bottle of Valium tablets first, don't wait for you to go crazy when you are on a mission." ”
The boy retorted: "Nervous, although this is the first time to carry out the mission, but we have also been training for so long, what are you afraid of, even if we can't beat us, we can use the Mu Dun - the technique of opening the door and going home, so don't worry." Yes! Also, it's not me who should take the medicine, it's you. Because even if you are crazy, you must have been driven crazy by me first. ”
Zhuo Yong was speechless...... simply no longer bothered with the child. The two of them got out of the elevator and came to the restaurant on the third floor, looked around, and recognized the shuttle at a glance. The man is a yellow race, about 20 years old, blonde hair, judging by his diet and eating habits, it should be a Korean, Zhuo Yong immediately reported the situation to Schenck by radio, Schenck replied: "Received, you guys just watch on the side, don't startle the snake, if he doesn't move, we don't have any action, if there is any situation, contact immediately." ”
After responding to Schenk, he sat down at the empty table not far from the shuttle, and then picked up the menu and looked at it carefully, Zhuo Yong saw that the person should be hungry, and his mind was not on the shuttle at all, but there was no way, because this kid was a complete foodie, and sighed Zhuo Yong had to monitor it seriously by himself.
Maybe it was because of the first mission, Zhuo Yong looked very nervous and unnatural, and then he said while looking at the menu: "Don't be nervous, how do you spy on others when you are so restrained, you see that your eyes have never left that kid from beginning to end, and I don't know that I think you are interesting to him." Don't be so nervous, relax, be natural. Ay! Trouble, ten steaks! ”
Zhuo Yong immediately withdrew his gaze after hearing the words of Zhuo Zi, he smiled, thinking that maybe he was too nervous, which is why he was so unnatural...... Wait a minute! Zhuo Yong suddenly remembered something, and asked loudly: "Damn, you let me be natural, you order ten steaks at once?" He glared at him and said, "Damn, you make a little noise, make a fuss, come to the restaurant and don't eat?" And it doesn't cost anything. I'll just call a few more, I have a big stomach, do you care about you? Zhuo Yong also realized that his volume was a little too high at this time, he immediately looked sideways at the shuttle, and found that he didn't notice the situation on his side and the man, so he calmed down, and after a long breath of relief, he stopped carrying it with the man, and began to stare intently.
After a while, the meal came, and without saying a word, he pulled a plate and ate it with relish, Zhuo Yong also brought a plate of steak and ate it casually in order to order it naturally. Just after eating a few bites, Zhuo Yong's afterglow saw that the shuttle had finished eating, wiped his mouth and got up to leave. Zhuo Yong patted the teaser, and the teaser also seemed to be aware of the other party's actions at this time, he used a fork to insert a whole steak into his mouth, and then got up with Zhuo Yong to follow.
The shuttle left the restaurant and walked out into the open-air corridor, looking at the sea as if he was very satisfied, and stretched out comfortably. Zhuo Yong and Zizi stood in the restaurant, watching him through the window. After standing outside for a while, the shuttle looked left and right to see that there was no one, and then he slowly raised his right hand and pointed his five fingers into the sky in the shape of tiger claws. At this time, Hu's clear sky suddenly became cloudy, the wind mixed with the rain seemed to be equipped with a switch, and it instantly smashed down from the sky, and the calm sea was no longer at this time, and the big waves continued to beat the hull of the ship wave after wave, and the entire cruise ship began to shake.
Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately reported to Schenk: "@#¥&*%......" But his mouth was full of steak at this time, and he couldn't speak clearly at all, Zhuo Yong was anxious: "Your sister, I haven't swallowed it for so long!" Then Zhuo Yong himself reported to Schenk: "Schenk, the shuttle has made an action!" The weather outside had been changed by him to a storm, asking for instructions. ”
Schenck replied on the radio: "Don't be nervous, Thomas is still shopping in the shopping street and doesn't know what's going on outside." Shuttle, since he has acted, he has already transformed into a virtual wanderer, you can act, first restore the weather to normal, and then subdue him with the divine blade, I will come over immediately. ”
Zhuo Yong and Zhuo Zi immediately acted, Zhuo Yong stretched out his right hand and pointed forward, the switch of the storm seemed to be turned off, the wind and rain immediately stopped, and the dark clouds in the sky slowly dispersed and returned to the clear sky, and the sea surface also returned to calm. At this time, he pushed the door and walked out of the restaurant, and when the virtual traveler was still stunned as to why the dream he had framed was changed back, he launched an attack.
I saw that the other party quickly rushed towards the other party and took out the dagger, and the other party also recovered from the shock at this time, and turned his head to find that the attack of the dragon had been pounced like a flood that broke the embankment. It's too fast, the virtual wanderer who didn't react at all, had to cross his hands in front of his chest to make a defensive gesture, but the puppet was not brutal, he suddenly lowered his body when he rushed to the front of the virtual wanderer, and then turned around with the virtual wanderer as the center, and directly turned to the opponent's back, without saying a word, the dagger was directly inserted into the spine in the middle of the opponent's back, and then there was a squeaky electric sound. The Void Wanderer was so electrocuted that although he had the heart to resist, he was powerless to return to the sky, and he lay on the ground with convulsions. It was all too fast, and as soon as Zhuo Yong came out of the door of the restaurant, he found that the Void Wanderer had been subdued, and seeing that the other party was still struggling on the ground, Zhuo Yong immediately stepped forward and held it down with the Picker.
