Chapter 57: Counterattack (2)

Shen Yi's words were like a bomb, which made everyone dizzy.

King Kong stared at Shen Yi in surprise and shook his head again and again: "This is simply crazy!"

Not only King Kong, but even Hong Lang, Gentle and a few others also showed horror in their eyes.

The world of Terminator 2018 should essentially belong to the world of more than two difficulties, and it is precisely for this reason that Bloody City will adjust the difficulty through the mission mode of Jedi Survival, and there is no need for adventurers to confront the Terminator. Destroying the pursuing forces is already the limit of performance for most adventurers, and as for the counterattack on the Skynet headquarters, it is not even a matter of even thinking about it.

Theoretically, the guard force of the Skynet headquarters will definitely not be less than the sum of the four rounds of pursuit and killing forces. Going to that kind of place is tantamount to a sheep's mouth.

But at this moment, Shen Yi put forward this idea, and said it so justifiably and so naturally.

But to him, it didn't seem abnormal.

He passed the 100% standard difficulty novice mission when he was a newcomer, and along the way, which time was not a challenge to the extreme. For him, the joy of surviving in this world is not about surviving, but about being challenged.

Of course, he didn't blindly challenge the advanced difficulty, and since he had decided to break into the Skynet headquarters, he naturally had his own ideas.

Seeing everyone looking at him in disbelief at this moment, Shen Yi laughed softly.

"There's no need to be so nervous. He said: "Actually, Skynet may not be as difficult to deal with as you think. ”

Looking at everyone, Shen Yi said: "First of all, everyone has to understand one thing: the trouble we are currently causing is the most powerful team in the ordinary area, and after we complete this mission, we will enter the ordinary area." In other words, in the next mission, we will most likely face off against the Bloodthirsty Team. If we didn't even have the courage to challenge the difficulty of a normal quest before this, then we would be able to deal with that team...... We have only one way to lose. So, we have to change our perspective and stop seeing ourselves as slum adventurers. I mean, from now on, the world we're experiencing has to be treated as if it were a normal difficulty. So if it is handed over to ordinary adventurers to come to this mission world, I guess the main mission released by the city may be to destroy at least one Skynet base. If we can't do it, then we won't even be qualified to be the opponent of the Lancet. ”

Since you want to go against the powerhouses in the ordinary area, you naturally have to have the corresponding strength. Before fighting Xie Rongjun and them, it is undoubtedly the best way to use the task world to test their own quality.

"Secondly, if we can complete this task on the basis of the current one, the rewards we will receive will be greatly increased. Assuming that we are now adventurers in the Normal Zone, we can be sure that the same quest will be completed, and the rewards will be greatly reduced. So I'm sure that if we complete this mission, it will be a leap forward for us. This will help us play against the Lancets in the future. ”

"Third: the essence of adventure is courage. Without the courage to face difficulties, no matter how good the reinforcement is, you will not become a real strong. Our team can lack anything, even courage!"

"Fourth, and most importantly, that is, counterattacking Skynet was originally a hidden mission given to us by the city, and all we have to do is to carry out the orders of the city......"

Everyone was taken aback and looked at Shen Yi together.

Shen Yi chuckled and said, "Actually, I've always been very strange. Just before the second round of pursuit, we received a hidden mission. One of the biggest differences between that hidden mission and the past is that we can't restrict the actions of the targets we protect. ”

The hidden mission to protect Marcus and Kyle has always made Shen Yi feel a strange feeling in his heart.

He always felt that this task was not easy, but he couldn't tell why.

The first problem is that the task came too easily, without the slightest hint of concealment, and even with some compulsion. Shen Yi was very suspicious that Xi Xiaofan pressed to accept, but in fact, he was a ghost in the city. That selection authority is only one of the criteria used to examine them.

The second problem was that it was the first time he had encountered a task that could not enforce the constraints of the protected target. This would cause them a lot of trouble when they were on a mission, but in fact it wasn't that much.

The third problem is that the city has not given any criteria for rewards. Prior to this, Shen Yi had only experienced one task without a reward standard, and that was little Jerry's protection mission. The reason why the standard cannot be given for that mission is because even if the task is completed, the backup conditions need to be met before Shen Yi can get the reward.

In other words, this mission reward can only be obtained after other special conditions are met.

So what are the fallbacks? Obviously, you can't expect the city to repeat the same routine.

Shen Yi thought about it for a long time, until he remembered a conclusion he had reached when he received a message about the soldiers of the airborne battalion in the World War II mission: the plot mission can be developed continuously.

Could it be that the same is true for this mission?

The real meaning of the requirement that the object to be protected cannot be imposed is ...... Guide the direction of the plot?

In the original episode, John Connor discovered Marcus's machine identity and was furious, believing that he was a spy sent by Skynet, and captured him. In order to understand why he became a machine, Marcus resolutely decided to return to Skynet headquarters to find out.

In other words, if the plot goes in the original direction, then as long as Marcus discovers his identity, he will definitely go to Skynet headquarters. And since the adventurers can't forcibly control Marcus, the consequences can only be ......

So Shen Yi understood.

I'm afraid this is the next plot of the hidden mission.

In other words, when the time comes, everything will fall into place. At that time, it didn't really matter whether the adventurers wanted to go to Skynet headquarters or not, because they had no choice.

The only way to avoid this step is to prevent Marcus from getting hurt and finding out who he is. That's why the city ordered to protect Marcus in the first place - without their protection, Marcus wouldn't have died.

From this point of view, Kylerees is the initial object of protection of this hidden mission, and Marcus is the object of the further development of the hidden mission. These two men complement each other and make for a special hidden mission that can be sustained and deep.

If Marcus is not injured, the hidden quest will not progress downward, and once injured, a new second-step quest may open at any time......

Everyone looked at Marcus together.

―――――――――――――

Marcus was still immersed in the shock of his own body.

It was difficult for him to accept what was happening to him for a while.

Shen Yi strode over to him and sat down, lit a cigarette, and said leisurely, "It seems that you haven't learned to accept your new identity yet." ”

"You know all this?" Marcus glared at him.

These people were not surprised by the changes in their bodies, and they were obviously mentally prepared.

"It's not about what I know, it's about whether you're able to accept reality. Honestly, everyone of us here has had a more bizarre experience than you have now. There are many people who are unable to accept the reality at first, and the consequence is that they die. There are so many strange things in the world that are beyond our knowledge, you can't understand it, you can't control it, the only thing you can do is to integrate, experience and ...... Adapt. Tell me Marcus, how long will it take you to accept your new body and identity?"

"I want to know what made me like this!"

"What else could it be?" Shen Yi asked rhetorically.

Marcus was slightly stunned, and he muttered, "Skynet ......"

He looked at Shen Yi: "Why? Why did Skynet turn me into a monster? I should have died a long time ago." ”

"There are too many people who should have died a long time ago, or even already died, including you and me. But we are not dead, we exist here and we have the meaning of our existence. Some history is changed because of us, and some of the future is created because of us. Marcus, don't care too much about who you are, as long as you think you're human, you're human. ”

"Oh, really?" Marcus laughed, pointing to the metallic skin on his face and the steel braces on his chest, "There will be this on a human body?"

Shen Yi shrugged: "Why not? It's like people need prosthetic limbs, prosthetic eyes, or even artificial organs." Technology has allowed human beings to develop, allowing us to turn objects that don't belong to us into parts that support our lives. The greatest characteristic of life is tenacity, tenacity enough to have enough capacity. You underestimate your life too much, Marcus, and you think that if someone puts a few rebars in your body, you are not human? I don't care what people think of you, I never thought of you as a machine. Do you want to treat yourself like a machine? If that's the case......"

Shen Yi shoved the spirit musket into Marcus's hand: "You still have a heart that belongs to a human being. Touch your chest, shoot there, and you'll say goodbye to your human identity once and for all. ”

"But ......"

"No, Marcus, what you are depends on you!" Shen Yi's voice became a little anxious.

Marcus looked at the gun in his hand, and after a while, he finally shook his head and returned the gun to Shen Yi. If he had doubts about Shen Yi's identity and origin before, and maintained a certain degree of vigilance, then now Marcus would no longer suspect Shen Yi and them.

Everyone has their own troubles and helplessness, and Marcus has clearly realized this.

Compared with Shen Yi's "inhuman" nature, Marcus's "inhuman" nature looks greater.

If the other party can accept the inhuman self, then why can't the other party accept the other party?

He looked at Shen Yi: "I need more answers." ”

Shen Yi spread his hands: "I'm sorry I can't give you a more specific answer, you have to find it yourself, but we can help you." ”

Life is like rape, if you can't resist, then enjoy it.

Shen Yi can be said to have thoroughly implemented this sentence to the extreme. Since you can't stop the story quest from going deeper, just push it and enjoy the mission. Anyway, in terms of Shen Yi's temperament, the fun of developing tasks and completing them like this is like discovering one hidden level after another in the game, which is something that makes him never get tired of it.

At this moment, Marcus looked at Shen Yi, and he finally nodded.

The Blood Emblem came with a cold, audible tone that only adventurers could hear: "Hidden Mission: Kylerees' request complete." The next stage of the mission begins: take Marcus into the Skynet base and destroy at least one Skynet command center. You have the right to refuse to perform the second stage of the mission, but you will not be able to receive the rewards for completing the first stage of the hidden mission, and all your gains in this mission world will be halved. If you accept this stage of the mission, you will be deemed to have passed all the main quests, and the fourth round of the chase will be canceled and all Bloody Points will be awarded. Mission Completion: You will be eligible for a special reward, which is determined based on performance. Mission Failure: 6,000 Blood Points will be deducted. ”
