Chapter 17: The Road to Survival: Crazy Thinking
"I think that you are a person, but it sounds good, but the gyrus is very different from ordinary people."
"No, it should be said that the thinking is abnormal."
"It's better to use madness."
"Is there anything more unpleasant?" Lu Yu said.
"Yes."
The three of them said in unison: "You are a psychopath!" ”
At this time, the three of them gathered around Witch's corpse, watching Lu Yu squat on the ground and turn the corpse around. After the system prompted "Witch has been successfully killed, the side quest has been completed", the first reaction of the other three was to sit down on the ground to rest, only Lu Yu excitedly immediately began to search for the body. According to his words, such a big boss, how much should be equipped with explosive points
"While being able to get the equipment might help clear the level, personally, I don't want him to actually find anything." Zhu Xiaowen said very honestly, "Otherwise, sooner or later, he will develop to the point that every time he kills an enemy, he will go up and search the corpse, and I can't accept it psychologically." ”
"Agreed." Seth sighed.
Nao simply stretched out her hand and pulled Lu Yu up: "If it's done, let's leave quickly!" We're out of bullets now. ”
She was right, in the process of killing Witch, in order to support Lu Yu, the three of them consumed a lot of bullets. Zhu Xiaowen, who was a little farther away, pursued accurate point shooting, but there was still a complete magazine left. Seth and Nao fired at close range, almost running out of bullets, and then they had to rely on an infinite number of pistols. Lu Yu is better, the pistol that has been used in the process of fighting Witch to ensure the rate of fire, so now there are more than 20 shotguns left, but considering that the end point is not yet known, these more than 20 rounds are just a drop in the bucket for their current ammunition shortage.
The only good thing is that the first aid kits and bombs for the four of them have not been used so far in the game, which may help them survive at a critical moment.
"I suddenly wondered who designed this game." Lu Yu walked and walked, and suddenly a sentence came out.
"What do you want to do? What are you going to do experimenting with? Tell you, no. ”
Nao pulled him forward without saying a word. In view of Lu Yu's previous two "criminal records", she really couldn't guess if this person would suddenly do something crazy.
"Brother Yu, I'm begging you." Zhu Xiaowen cried with a sad face, "The end should be almost here, don't move those weird thoughts, let us clear the customs, once you come up with an idea, it will be no good every time." ”
"Yes, that's the problem." Lu Yu said solemnly, "If we follow the normal game flow, the most dangerous time for us is to encounter Hunter and Smoker at the same time at the beginning, if you are not mentally prepared, it is easy to be caught off guard there, but I think the most serious result is probably that the two people who were attacked head-on were greatly injured and had to use two first-aid kits to recover." If you want to talk about group annihilation, these two special infected people can't do it yet. ”
"But after that, I met Bommer!" Zhu Xiaowen reminded, "Bommer's bile can be regarded as a threat of annihilation. ”
Lu Yu replied: "Yes, the Bommer around the corner is a very dangerous existence, but if it wasn't Nao who was walking in front at that time, but the three of us who are more familiar with the original game, I probably wouldn't have been hit." ”
"I'm not sure." Seth pondered, "But I think nine times out of ten, I'll subconsciously push and fight." ”
"Then, there was a wave of infected people in the middle of the passage, although there were a lot of them, but due to the terrain, they could only rush from both sides of the passage, and if the firepower was enough, they could kill as many as they wanted, and they basically couldn't get close. After leaving the passage, it's Witch, but it's a branch line that can be selected......" Lu Yu lightly tapped his finger on his temple, "No, if it's '4', I will design it, and it won't end here." ”
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Nao vaguely heard what Lu Yu was saying.
"The last game I played, the genre was Club 3. The result of the game ......" Lu Yu hesitated, "Well, I am the only one among the ten players who survived." And in retrospect, if I had a bad thought at the time, the result would probably have been a group annihilation without any suspense. ”
He suddenly raised his voice slightly: "However, this spade 4 is obviously one level higher than the club 3, and the game has been going on so far, but there has not been a crisis enough to cause the team to be wiped out!" ”
"Do you mean ......" Zhu Xiaowen understood, and said tremblingly, "Before the finish line, there should be a very big crisis waiting for us?" And it's designed to be the kind that can't be bypassed? ”
"The worst conceivable outcome is a tank that hasn't appeared yet, and even a wave of infected assaults is possible. That being said, we should first find a place to replenish ammunition. Seth said.
"There will be no more ammunition." Lu Yu's fingers continued to tap his temples, "Well, yes, there will be no supplies." Otherwise, it doesn't make much sense to set up a Witch here as a side quest. One pistol is possible, and having one person upgrade to two guns doesn't make a difference, and there's a chance to create additional chaos......"
"May I ask why?" Nao spoke suddenly.
"It's obvious. Witch is a special infected person who is dangerous enough to cause annihilation, and if three of a four-person team are defeated by her, they will basically be powerless. But on the other hand, as long as no more than two people fall to the ground, the player's side has a chance to win. As I've just analyzed, the best result of Hunter and Smoker's joint raid is to consume our two first aid kits, and there are just two left, and if you choose to play Witch, you may become consumed all the first aid kits. Secondly, Witch has a lot of health, and if it weren't for my shameless combos, it would inevitably have consumed a lot of ammo in the process of hitting her. In fact, even when used, we are almost running out of ammunition. ”
Lu Yu came to a conclusion: "The purpose of this side quest of Witch is to consume our items and make the later parts more difficult. We can choose not to provoke her and keep our strength to challenge the big battle before clearing the level, or we can challenge her to get extra rewards but at least consume a lot of ammo. If there were supplies after her, her existence as a side quest would be meaningless. ”
"So it's better if you don't touch her......" Nao said, "I won't talk about the previous things." Your analysis makes sense, but what's the point of understanding that? We don't have to go to the finish line yet, and even if there's a big battle waiting at that gate, if we can't get around it, as you said, we'll have to bite the bullet, right? ”
"If I'm not mistaken, the game should be almost over." Lu Yu said confidently, "At the end of this street is a police station-like building, and I guess the security gate is right there." Given the continuity of each level in the original game, the security door should be placed close to the back door, so that the player can open the door on the other side and go out from behind the police station to start the next level - oh, of course, we shouldn't have to continue. ”
"So the Armageddie you predicted will be in the lobby of the police station?"
Zhu Xiaowen is worthy of being a player who is good at the block type, and immediately followed Lu Yu's train of thought: "Well, the lobby of a building like this has the characteristics of being open on all sides, and the limited space is not conducive to dodging, if there is a tank, it can't even lean against the wall to maintain a defensive position, it will indeed be very troublesome." ”
"Considering the current firepower, we can only fight and run. As for the meaning of what Miss Nao said, this question ......" Lu Yu said as he untied the first aid kit behind his back, "I personally recommend using the first aid kit now, even if the effect of the reply is only to make yourself resist one more attack, maybe this just saved your life." I reckon there will be no more first aid kits when we get to the end of the street. ”
He flipped through the first aid kit and found a small red button on the back, so he pressed it without thinking. Then a virtual progress bar appeared in front of him, and when it came to the end, Lu Yu felt a sense of relief all over his body, and the slot representing the current health value under his vision finally returned to a relatively safe yellow-green range. When converted into percentages, it's about 85 percent.
The other three saw that he had already used the first aid kit, looked at each other, and also took out their own first aid kits. Nao, who was the least injured, could only recover more than ten percent of his health when using a first-aid kit at this time, which was very wasteful. So she hesitated for a moment and put it away again.
The four were back on the road after a short break. Although there are many infected people on the streets, they are not a threat because the stations are scattered. Considering that there was not much ammunition left, all four of them consciously hit with pistols. On the way, as Lu Yu predicted, they also found a pistol, and if it was another improvised team, they had to fight for this pistol, but Lu Yu and the others agreed to hand over the pistol to Seth without much time. In the previous experience, it can be basically seen that Seth and Lu Yu are the two points with the strongest firepower, Lu Yusheng has a strong attack power at close range with a shotgun, while Seth is completely good marksmanship and boldness, let him hold two guns, in order to maximize the effect of this pistol.
And Lu Yu's other prediction, and the most important prediction, was revealed after they walked through the gate of the police station.
"What kind of ...... is this" Even a nervous person like Seth couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth at this time.
As if they had received some order, the moment they entered the lobby, a tidal wave of infected people swarmed out of the room, squeezing into this small place.
Elsewhere in the lobby, Hunter's screams, Smoker's cough, and Bommer's grunts rang out in turn. At the end of the hallway, a large, stout man could be seen smashing things and roaring at them.
"What else could there be." Lu Yu raised the gun with a cold face, "Monster Carnival." ”
