Gate of Apocalypse

“You're quite right, I have nothing to refute. In fact, it's your own internal matter, and I don't care.” Chen Xiaoliang: “I came to see you just to find out what you think of this copy. ”

“It's a simple proposition - leaving aside all other things, we just hope that at least in this copy, all awakeners will receive unified command and deployment.” Zodiac dragons have a soft tone: “If we don't want everyone to die here together, we have to do this. ”

“For what reason?” Chen Xiaoxiao asked with no emotion.

“First of all, since you have been systematically prompted, it should be clear that this time all our participants - including possible players and awakeners - are in the same camp, without competition or confrontation. So at least in this copy, there's no need to fight each other. ”

“Yes, but if we don't fight each other, why do we have to be under unified command?” Chen Xiaolian smiled: “And the most critical question - who will direct it? ”

“This is the first time the system has issued a task of such magnitude that all awakeners are involved in a copy without distinction on such a large scale. Although there is no way to count clearly, a rough estimate of the difficulty of such a copy, which involves at least a thousand awakeners, is conceivable. Moreover, based on the location, it is highly likely that this copy will be a copy of a war.” Zodiac Dragon Slow Trail: “When Yang Long Slope, this place name doesn't remind you of anything, does it? ”

“You mean the Three Kingdoms?” Though Chen Xiao Liang's mind is already clear, he still needs to disguise himself slightly: "But if this is the case, a cold weapons battlefield copy won't be too difficult, right? ”

“Chen Xiao Liang, I don't think this is something you would say, right?” The Zodiac Dragon frowned slightly: “Even if this is a copy of a cold weapon, it is a copy of a cold weapon that does not restrict any technological equipment. If you have no psychological expectations of its difficulty, I can only say that I am disappointed in you. ”

Chen Xiaocao did not speak, only narrowed his eyes and measured the zodiac dragon.

He hasn't reported his name to Zorron since we met.

“Don't look at me like that.” Zodiac Dragon Stand Up: “Now that you've seen the nightmare, it should be clear that we have your information. I recognized you the first time I saw you, it was nothing strange. ”

“Okay.” Chen Xiaoliang nodded: “By the way, I didn't kill Nightmare, I let him go. ”

“Kill or let go, it doesn't matter.” Zodragon sneered: “He was just a kid with a second illness. He was left in the regiment at the same time. He was just a rare animal. Give him the name of a senior member, he actually takes it seriously. ”

“I just wanted to let you know.” Chen Xiaocai shrugged: “Time to answer my last question. ”

“Since we are the sponsors, we should certainly shoulder that burden.” Zodiac Dragon Sinks: “This copy is not a battle, it's a war! It's a war of over 100,000 people! In this copy, all of us awakeners will face a vast battlefield and a vast number of enemies, and must organize ourselves in the same way. And now, with a team that has enough experience with large enough copies, I think it's just us. ”

“Sounds like you guys are getting over it.” Chen Xiaocai smiled lightly: “So how do you intend to use your team size and ensure that the interests of other teams are not compromised in the process? ”

“It's just the intention to build a messaging mechanism with our Starfleet as its backbone.” Zorron's expression looks candid: “All teams and individuals who participate in the copy and are willing to work together can maintain their own formation, except that in action, there will be one of our team members working together. Through the Team Channel, we can ensure that the battle plan reaches every participant in the first place. With such a communication mechanism, every team involved, even if acting independently, can turn to us for help if necessary. Simply put, it's a mutual help, everybody for me, I'm a mechanism for everyone. ”

“Superintendent?” Chen Xiaocai picked an eyebrow.

“No, just a liaison.” Zoolander smiles and shakes his head: “We're not that stupid, we don't want all the teams to follow our orders. This mechanism is intended only to ensure that battlefield information is effectively collected and that recommendations for action are effectively issued. Note, it's a recommendation, not an order. The right to ultimately choose whether or not to accept remains in the hands of the teams themselves. ”

“Sounds acceptable.” Chen Xiaoliang pondered for a moment and slowly said: “Is that all? ”

“That's all.” Zodiac dragon nods.

“Yes, I accept the offer.” Chen Xiaolian nodded: “However, I have one condition. ”

Zodiac dragon made a gesture, please.

“I'm going to appoint a liaison for our team. ”

“Assign?” Zoidron wondered: “Who do you want to assign? ”

Nightmare. ”

……

“Face, how could you say yes so easily?” As soon as he left the hotel lobby and got in the car, Roddy impatiently pulled Chen Xiaocai's seat back and hurried: “Although it sounded like there was no threat, I always felt something was wrong. ”

“Sure. You think they're really here to do good?” Chen Xiaoliang started the car, stepped on the throttle, and his head sneered: “Where do so many * * comrades come from? ”

“So what do they have in mind?” Roddy's eyes shine: “Explain it to me! I've been meaning to ask you this for a long time now. ”

“The man stationed, who said the jail army was untouchable, but said he was a simple liaison officer and a joke. To be precise, an observer should be assigned to each team. ”

“Observers?” Roddy was stunned and immediately understood: “You mean they were trying to find out about the rest of the team? ”

“You're not too dumb.” Chen Xiaolian chuckled.

“But even if they had, they wouldn't necessarily have worked, would they?” Roddy hesitated for a moment: “If you can imagine that the rest of the team had no doubt, how could they be so open to spying? ”

Chen Xiaocai glanced at Roddy: “Indeed, the core things, such as the proprietary skills of core members at the bottom of the box, each team will consciously not be exposed to outsiders, but even then, some peripheral intelligence is valuable enough. Even if you don't use all your strength, it's easy to tell who's senior and who's new in battle. Moreover, there are some basic speculations that can be made about the general direction of each team member's development. ”

“So... will those teams accept?” Roddy frowned: “What makes me think it's still costly? ”

“But the benefits are greater.” Chen Xiaocao shook his head: “This copy is unusual. From the system description, all awakeners will know how difficult it is. It would be too risky not to fight in groups. The benefits of accepting the conditions of the stars in exchange are that they can be assisted if necessary, and there should still be a lot of teams that will accept them, after all, which greatly improves their chances of survival. If you can't even survive, what's the point of keeping a secret? ”

“You're right.” Roddy nodded and suddenly looked with admiration at Chen Xiaocai: “I said, you didn't kill that kid named Tie Zhu, didn't you achieve it because you anticipated it all, in order to make him our liaison officer? ”

“Do you think I'm a fairy?” Chen Xiaocai rolled his eyes: “It's just that the kid is not our real enemy, I hate pointless killing. And the location of the base and all that, I don't want him to leak it. I was surprised to be able to use him in this copy. ”

“Is that what you call fucking luck?” Roddy deliberately made a serious face and sat upright and looked at Chen Xiao: “I said, as an online writer, you have mastered the way to break down the dimensional wall and put the hero's halo on yourself? We've all been brothers for so many years, will you give me a share? ”

“Fuck off! ”

……

After another day of rest in the hotel, the nightmare finally arrived.

At the moment of knocking on the door of the room, the nightmare appeared in front of Chen Xiaolian's eyes, his face was exhausted and his head was depressed. It was like a rat who had just struggled from the trap clip and turned his face and hit a big cat.

When Chen Xiaoliang left him, he was left with nothing but clothes. Looks like this guy made a pretty good toss to get to the replica area before the deadline.

“I...” Nightmare kowtowed: “The zodiac dragon asked me to come, he said... want me to be your team's liaison...”

“Of course, you were my specialty.” Chen Xiaolei smiled and pressed his hand against the shoulder of the nightmare, pulled him into the room, closed the door, sat on the chair himself, curled Jiro's leg and measured the nightmare: “So soon we met again, are you surprised? Surprised? ”

In a small room, all the members of the Meteor Squad arrived, or sat or stood, gazing together at the nightmare.

“Brother... let me go, Brother!” Chen Xiaocai did not greet Nightmare and sat down. He dared not move. He could only stand at the door with his hands hanging. He cried and moaned: “I didn't offend you too much! ”

“What, you don't want to see me?” Chen Xiaocai hummed and laughed twice: “Better not see it for a year and a half, right? ”

“Yes… no!” Nightmare reacted with just one word, hands twisting: "Brother, you still have my antidote, how could I not want to see you! ”

“That's right.” Chen Xiaolei nodded satisfied: “As long as you do as you please in the next days, the cure won't be missing you. I think... you must be one of the smartest people in the world? ”

“Yes! There must be a number! There has to be a number!” Nightmare's headline is falling off.

“Good, sit down and talk.” Chen Xiaoxiao pointed to a chair next to him: “Tell me first about the man named Zolong. ”
