How Did It Become a River Crab?

The programmer's magic book... If it is stronger, it may be used to break the door. Forget about the flat magic arrow now.

Scout promise?This item was used when I came to Tomorrow's Ark last time. I haven't found a suitable time to use it until now. The effect is to summon the sniper operator scout...

I'm in a tight siege, and I didn't call an ADC to come over at this time... Wait.

Mo Lan glanced at the item's description, and opened the system's automatic customer service response.

[Mo Lan]: If I use [SCOUT's Promise] in the original world to summon SCOUT, will he retain his memory after being repatriated?

[Automatic answer customer service]: Yes.

After getting the answer, Mo Lan glanced at the still-blocked camera, stopped worrying, and triggered the item.

In the next second, the Rhode Island sniper, Sarkaz savage SCOUT, who was squatting and shooting, landed in front of Mo Lan.

"……what's the situation?"

SCOUT, who was summoned abruptly, was startled in a daze at first, and then he was instilled with relevant knowledge by the system in an instant, and his tone returned to normal in an instant: "Long time no see, Brother Crab."

"How long is this [long time]?" Mo Lan asked, he needed to know the current plot timeline.

"...It's not short, at least it's a time worthy of this word." SCOUT sighed: "It's been three or four years since you exploded and disappeared, and a lot happened during this period."

"The civil war is over, Queen Teresia of Kazdel passed away, and Teresi became the regent of Kazdel, and the Tower of Babel also fell apart. W disappeared immediately, and there is no news so far. The doctor also disappeared for some reason. , we have reorganized an infected mutual aid organization called [Rhode Island], and we are trying to find the trace of the doctor, and now... we can only say that there are some clues."

After Mo Lan heard this, she thought about it for a while. According to this statement, the current plot timeline should be a period of time before the main storyline of the game, which happens to be the [historical time] of most Rhodes Island operators. The opportunity for members to join Rhodes Island all occurred during this period.

If the system wants players to participate in more important events in the game, then this mission of the Prisoner of the Rhine is also related to some important characters in the original work, combined with the diary when the plot was introduced at the beginning...

If the system didn't intentionally trick people, that diary was probably written by Rhine Life's powerful six-star warlock operative 【Ifrit】.

From these information, it can be inferred that this mission is inextricably linked to Ifrit, nicknamed Charmander, and after a little more thought, the Rhine Life researcher [Hemer] who has a close relationship with Ifrit should also There are appearances.

As for the other six-star Rhine Life reloading operator, Sereya... According to Ifrit's diary and mission description, in this incident in this parallel world, she should have little chance to appear.

After thinking about it, Mo Lan didn't waste time, and immediately said to scout: "I don't know about Rhodes Island... are you interested in studying the little secret of Rhine's life?"

Five minutes later, the mist surrounding the surveillance cameras dissipated, and the unsuspecting surveillance personnel regained their view of the 5 holding room, and the big crab in the provocateur sequence returned to their view without any movement.

Another 5 minutes later, the door of Mo Lan's holding room was opened, and a Sakota security mercenary walked in, and said to Mo Lan in an indifferent tone refusing unnecessary communication: "041, there is your routine experiment. "

"Okay, my little angel." Mo Lan smiled and climbed out of the holding room in a zigzag shape, and came to the corridor outside the holding room.

At the same time, a prompt came from the system.

"[Mo Lan] and [SO.VE] were randomly selected as the released deposits. From now on, these two players can communicate through the team channel."

"In addition to these two players, the player who plays the role of the ghost in the security force and the two players who take the deposit cannot use the team channel before the rendezvous."

"In order to reduce the difficulty of searching, the insider and the released player will obtain the appearance information of the player who received the pledge."

After the words fell, two 3D models of non-human objects appeared in front of Mo Lan.

On the left is a fat mushroom that looks like a large mushroom man from the dark forest of "Dark Souls 1" and the one on the right...

... a slot machine?

Chapter 220 IX The Balrog

The ones released were me and the only brother...

Mo Lan followed the security guard calmly and walked along the pure white metal corridor.

The atmosphere of this seventh experimental field looks quite depressing. The corridor is basically only composed of monotonous white metal. All the walls are repeatedly inlaid and reinforced with a large number of reinforcing materials. It looks solid, at least not around level 20. Players, there is no way to take these walls and protective doors.

As Mo Lan moved forward, he saw a lot of detention rooms similar to the one where he was imprisoned, but some seemed to have a higher level of protection, with several layers of reinforced extra access control at the door, and some were just ordinary. through an alloy door.

Mo Lan didn't see any information related to the detained objects outside these cells, which made him a little puzzled.

There are reminder notices in the room, but there is no information to warn pedestrians outside the room?

After thinking about it for a while, Mo Lan probably understood the reason. This place is different from the other worldviews and organizations that imprisoned various magical items in his impression. In the future, in order to guard against espionage and intrusion activities, and to reduce the scope of most employees' knowledge, reducing the degree of disclosure of information is a logical decision.

Even if it leads to the death of innocent people.

Mo Lan scolded the evil capitalism in her heart, and continued to follow the security guards. Not long after, they passed through an alloy door and came to a spacious area similar to a square.

Here you can see some researchers in white coats and protective masks, as well as children running and playing in the square.

Unlike the security forces that were all Sakotas seen along the way, these children were of different races, and the only thing they had in common was that there were more or less exposed Origin Stone crystals on their bodies, some of them were even quite serious, and they looked They're all on the brink of death.

Reminiscent of the human experiment and other sentences in the previous system introduction, most of these children are war orphans purchased by Rhine Life in various ways, just like the little charmander [Ifrit] in the original work, suffering from various Originium Suitability Experiment.

The security personnel looked at these children a little irritably, seeming to be worried about being infected, they quickened their pace and moved towards the corridor at the other end of the square.

At the entrance of the corridor, a girl with dog ears of the Lupu tribe leaned against the doorway, panting with difficulty. The origin stone crystals on her chest were huge, looking like a cluster of blooming red flowers.

Sick?

"go away."

Seeing that the way forward was blocked, the security personnel frowned slightly, their tone half disgusted, half contemptuous.

"I'm sorry, I..." The girl seemed to want to get up, but the severe pain in her chest made it difficult for her to do so. The security guard let out a "tsk", kicked the girl's side face, and kicked the girl. He kicked towards the door, glanced at the girl who rolled around on the ground a few times, breathing weakly, and then opened the door cautiously.

Mo Lan watched the two researchers walking towards the girl anxiously, checked the girl's injuries, picked her up, and looked at the security guard with eyes that dared not speak out. Gritting his teeth while watching, he carried the child and walked to the other side.

The researchers are still individuals, but they are suppressed by the security personnel who are supposed to be lower than them, and they dare not speak out... Mo Lan remembered what he heard from the system before, most of the researchers were under house arrest for research, and he was very concerned about this. There is some awareness of the potential relationship between the enemy and the enemy in the copy.

Calmly, he measured the heads of the security personnel in front of him, and speculated whether the heavy magic arrow in the [Programmer's Magic Book] could hit his head with one arrow, and then Mo Lan continued to follow him silently, walking towards the scheduled experiment site.

During this process, Mo Lan took advantage of the gap when no one was paying attention to him, and placed a thumb-sized metal square in the corner of the square.

not the right time yet.

After walking for a while, the security personnel led Mo Lan to a passage formed by several corridors.At the same time, in another corridor, a snake-shaped monster slowly crawled out, being escorted by seven or eight tense armed personnel.

Hydralisk, the only brother.

"Receipt 042 "Forbidden Snake"?" The security personnel in charge of Mo Lan moved away from the only brother, fearing: "Why is he here?"

"They said they wanted to do an Originium suitability experiment with this crab." The answerer held up the gun and stared intently at the only brother, "Look at the final use value."

VE and Mo Lan simply exchanged glances, and then stopped making any unnecessary movements. They just quietly moved forward under the leadership of the security personnel, and started communicating in the team channel.

[Mo Lan]: What ability do you have left?

[SO.VE]: Luckily, the telekinetic specialization, the enhancement of shooting spikes has been retained, and at the same time there is a prop that can be used for self-protection, how about you?

[Mo Lan]: I asked for some off-field assistance that I don't know if it can be done. In addition, there is a shield and a long-range skill that can be used as a flat A.

[SO.VE]: If you haven't unlocked all your summons, follow the story first.

[Mo Lan]: OK, do you have any idea about those two players?

【SO.VE】: I haven't seen it before, so let's take a step at a time.

If everyone didn't choose to block skills, Mo Lan and the only brother had already killed the Quartet in the square, and the group of security personnel who beat them were crying their fathers and mothers. Mo Lan and the only brother can only follow the plot first, participate in the experiment, and look for opportunities to escape.

The endless space system has never been a treasure for players. It provides restricted options, so it will naturally provide a way for players to break out of the encirclement under the restricted options. The two are waiting for this opportunity now.

After walking for a short distance, a beautiful woman with a gloomy complexion pushed a stretcher trolley walked in from the branch corridor next to her.

She has obvious Liboli (bird) features, short brown hair that is a bit careless, and slightly old-fashioned semi-circular glasses. The combination of these features made Mo Lan recognize her identity immediately .

"Tomorrow's Ark" five-star medical operator, the current timeline is still working for Rhine Life [Hemer]...

And on the stretcher she was pushing, lay a girl with a pretty face but a bit of mischievousness. She was closing her eyes tightly under the effect of anesthesia and groaning in pain from time to time, which attracted a lot of attention. Hemo watched with concern.

This girl is also easy to recognize, the powerful six-star warlock operator in the original work, nicknamed "Little Charmander" [Ifrit]...

These two are also heading towards the testing ground...

Watching their steps, and taking a look at the security personnel around them who seemed to regard Ifrit as a scourge for fear of avoiding it, the only brother and Mo Lan thought of a big pit in the original work of Tomorrow's Ark at the same time.

... Rhine Life's [Balrog Incident]...

Chapter 230 Containment Breach

[The Balrog Incident] is the abbreviation of the experimental accident that had a huge impact on most of the Rhine Life operators in "Tomorrow's Ark".

The specific details of this incident are still unclear, but the general plot that can be deduced is: Ifrit, the origin stone test product of Rhine Life, made a mistake in an experiment, and released the origin stone structure with self-awareness in the body [Balrog ], causing huge casualties to the entire test site.

The cause and history of this incident are not clear, the only thing that is clear is the result, the director of the life defense department Seliya took action to suppress Ifrit, resigned from the director's job, and joined Rhodes Island.

Because of this incident, Rhine Life's operatives [Hemer] and [Serea] broke up. Hemer took the experimental product Ifrit and defected to Rhodes Island, and fought with Serena who also went to Rhodes Island. Not seeing the king, taking care of everything about Ifrit in front of a single mother.

At this moment, Ifrit and Hemer are also going to the experimental field, and the player side will most likely find a breakthrough in the experimental field...

Combining the two messages, does it mean that there will soon be a version of the [Balrog Event] in the absence of Saria?

Mo Lan and the only brother had a brief exchange in the team channel, and the decision they made was to wait and see what happened, and participate in the experiment normally first.

According to the information obtained now, Durkan, the new director of the Seventh Experimental Site, used the security forces to turn this place into his personal prison. Reckless actions may not only break the breakthrough provided by the system, but may also put important NPCs in danger. The gain outweighs the gain .

With this mentality in mind, Mo Lan and VE were quietly led into a double metal gate. Before entering, the two saw Hemer pushing Ifrit into another gate a hundred meters away from them .

The alloy door slammed shut behind them, and Mo Lan and VE began to look at the environment they were in.

The space behind the door is beyond imagination. It is roughly a rectangular space with a length of 70 meters and a height of about 50 meters. It is extremely empty inside, and there are double doors on each wall.

The six security personnel who had brought him and the only brother in before dispersed and stood in the four corners of the test site, guarding the two beasts in the center.

At the top of this rectangular space, there is a long corridor protected by bulletproof glass. On the long corridor, a row of white coats and security personnel are standing, condescendingly observing the things below.

Observation room...

In Mo Lan's impression, all the areas he passed through did not have high enough passages, and most of the people in the observation room came down from the upper floor of the detention area and the square area.

I haven't figured out the layout of this base yet...

Mo Lan was thinking, and suddenly saw a somewhat familiar figure from the back in the observation room.

At a distance of 70 meters, it is not easy to see a person clearly, but the back figure that Naihe appeared in the observation room is too recognizable, with short silver-white hair, black and red clothes, and two guns hanging on his body. big guns...

【W】……

Seemingly feeling the sight from behind, W, who was observing Ifrit who was being pushed into the testing ground next door, turned around and glanced at the big green crab in the testing ground behind him.

A cockroach and a crab looked at each other, and invariably moved their eyes away again, and put them back to their previous positions.
