Chapter 329 The Praying Arm of a Cart, A Hymn of Courage
"What's going on? 'One offline'? In the eyes of these guys, aren't we just connected players in the game?"
At this time, even Sakura Mi, who was sitting on the cot and pretending to be a lady, was not calm. As a senior gamer, she could of course instantly understand what "one offline" meant, but this was a very normal statement in the game.
This is where it gets elusive.
Rebecca also shook her head: "Or are they playing a hunting game? What a bad guy!"
"No matter what it means, at least for now, this is a very dangerous signal." Tess flew down from the sky, sweat dripping from the alien witch's forehead, "They have the motive to kill us all."
After the people present were stunned, they quickly figured it out - what the phrase "offline one" means is not important at all. What is important is that the other party has the motive to do something to him - no matter what the motive is.
The act of playing games for self-entertainment still has a sacred and noble purpose.
For those unfortunate enough to be killed, there is no difference between death at the hands of gangsters and death at the hands of knights.
After a brief silence, everyone became uneasy - those guys had only encountered a small group of troops in the east, and they were all "forced offline". If they continued to sit back and wait for death, they would have to face them head-on.
Take on the soldiers of the "Eternal Fire Legion"!
But where can we go now? Going west is the large force of the "Eternal Fire Legion", going east is the reconnaissance force, and there are elite troops patrolling underground and in the sky...
"Escape deep into the jungle?" Jim suggested: "I asked a fossil soldier to hide near the legion to observe. We are traveling lightly, and their speed may not be able to keep up with us...right?"
No one answered, because it was a matter of course - even if someone else has a large army and it is difficult to turn around, there is an air force in the sky and vehicles on the ground. Do you want to outrun airplanes and tanks on two legs? Even Jim who made this suggestion said later.
They all didn’t believe it.
"So now it's better to go..."
"No, it's still heaven..."
"The underground is intricate..."
"Why don't we just spread out and leave one by one!"
"Seek reinforcements! Be it NASA or mercenary organizations..."
"Seeking rescue? Please, even if you can send a message, who can come to save us? Who can come!"
…
Under the pressure of being crushed to ashes if you make one wrong move, a heated debate broke out in the tent, but everyone realized that this problem had no solution - it seemed that no matter how hard you tried, it was in vain, and human wisdom was still there.
The absolute power gap is so pitiful.
Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more urgent, Ojiao knew that now was not the time for her to get entangled, and she had to make a decision immediately.
The answer here is very simple. Li Zheng has already given her the standard answer, which is to let everyone stay here and wait for rescue. Choosing this seems to be the stupidest, but actually the only viable path. The only difficulty is that
How to convince everyone.
This is actually the most difficult thing for Ojiao - as we all know, asking a tsundere to persuade others is like asking a tank to drill the eye of a needle. Not only does the tank feel uncomfortable, but the effect is not good.
And Li Zheng himself... has been floating above the tent, looking at everything in front of him with a smile - as if everything has nothing to do with him, and has no intention of giving Ojiao any detailed assistance.
"Everyone, can you listen to me? I think we should not go anywhere." Ojiao suddenly interrupted everyone's argument. She kept saying in a stern tone: "Escape is also a dead end. We
We should set up a position right here and let us block them, even for a second."
"..."xn
Everyone present stopped talking and looked at the girl in front of them as if they were a fool - to put it this way, using a mantis as a car is not so exciting.
Ojiao, who knew that she was stupid, did not intend to use her eloquence to persuade everyone to stay. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes, forgetting Li Zheng's answer.
【I have to...in my own way.】
When the girl opened her eyes again, she was no longer confused.
"Everything we discussed before was based on wanting to escape from here." Ojiao said firmly: "But have we ever thought about what this army is going to do?"
"What is this army... going to do?" Judai's eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes, this is their base camp. They are definitely not going to fight their own people."
"There is only one goal." Rebecca's face darkened: "The human world?"
"Yes, this is the only possibility." Ojiao nodded, "Ever since this land came to the earth, their behavior has been unreasonable... But at least now, they have made a behavior that we can predict.
.”
"War, invasion." O'Brien took a deep breath, and the battle-experienced mercenary sighed: "I originally thought the aliens could be more peaceful."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you." Tess shrugged helplessly: "But if their goal is the human world, can we really...can stop such an army?"
"Maybe we are just mantises, maybe the only thing we can do is to pass this information to the outside world, and then usher in our end..." Ojiao glanced at everyone present with bright eyes,
"But we cannot die ugly while escaping! At least at the last moment of our lives, we must show human dignity and show these proud super-ancient people the soul of mankind that has been passed down from generation to generation!"
"After sending out the intelligence, I will stay here and fight until the last moment." Ojiao stretched out a hand, as if seeking support, "I will not advise everyone to stay, but I hope someone can understand
I--we don't stand up because we can defeat them, but because we have to stand here and fight them."
"That's right!" At this time, Judai suddenly "awakened" and was the first to jump out of the crowd, "A person once told me that even if he is bruised and bruised, he must shake his fist at fate.
Called 'Hero'!"
Judai put his hand on Ojiao's hand and gave her a thumbs up, "Thank you Shimada, you reminded me of something very important! Let's fight together!"
"What Ed said? Humph... Really, don't say such passionate words in front of people of my age... I won't be able to bear it."
Sakura said this, but she was also the second to put her hand on Judai's hand.
"We can't let the backward natives of the earth look down upon us. Ingrid, come with us."
Tess and Ingrid's hands pressed on Sakura's hand.
"A knight's sword is born to protect the weak."
"If I back down at this time, Karen will look down on me, right?"
"You stand back, I am the professional soldier."
"Don't underestimate the genius archaeologist!"
"I never thought that my old bones could burn like a young man again."
…
A pair of hands placed on Ojiao's hand, which made Ojiao feel the weight getting heavier and heavier, but she also felt as if there was a chain in her heart that was gradually being untied with this weight.
Looking around, no one chose to escape.
After leaving the tent and telling everyone about the current situation, few people chose to escape, and almost everyone stayed.
Soon, with the help of veins, the information was successfully transmitted. Although the organizations to which they belonged expressed concerns, as previously thought, no one had the ability to rescue them, but everyone was grateful to them for bringing this information.
The next thing is very simple and pure, fighting.
The people here include mercenaries, students, and scholars. It is not a professional army at all, and it is far different from the "Eternal Fire Legion" approaching outside...
But in the eyes of one guy, this is enough.
"It's so beautiful..." Li Zheng looked at the camp that became united in an instant, and a tiny light flashed in his eyes that had been dull all year round. He raised the wine glass in his hand, and the "Star Relic Pulu" in the wine glass
Shining with brilliant light, "Cheers to the mantis arm, cheers to courage."
