The middle-aged man didn't bother to answer, and rushed forward, his speed was actually the fastest among the three, and soon Lu Huaixing fell to the last, the first rolling snow bag was only less than five meters away from him .

"Follow me." He ordered briefly.

Although he looked like he was about to be chased, Luo Xiaobei chose to trust him again, and immediately slowed down to walk side by side with him.While running like this, Lu Huaixing was still poking the ground with his alpenstock at the same time. He didn't run the seemingly shortest straight line, but meandered in the snow. Every time he went around rocks or turned on flat ground, Luo Xiaobei was surprised. Found them throwing off several snow packs.

After a while, Luo Xiaobei suddenly realized when he heard the thumping sound behind him: Lu Huaixing's traveling route was clearly designed ingeniously. He took advantage of the terrain and the pits hidden in the snow to shake off those weird bulges little by little.

——He was surprised but took it for granted: he didn't know what Lu Ge was doing before he was in a vegetative state, but he was definitely not an ordinary person.

The middle-aged man who ran a long way fell into a big pit. After climbing out with difficulty, he was just caught up by Lu Huaixing and the other two. He was a little surprised to see that they ran at a leisurely pace, but then he looked at the remaining snow bags behind him. Quantity, immediately chose to follow behind them.

Lu Huaixing didn't stop him either, and after a few minutes, the snow was flat, and all the things running under the snow disappeared.

"I'll go." Luo Xiaobei, who stopped, threw his bag on the ground, gasping for breath, "What the hell is that? A beast?"

The middle-aged man was smoking white smoke from his nose, and he waved his hands to express his confusion.

"Not a beast."

"Brother Lu, what are you talking about?"

Lu Huaixing took out a compressed biscuit from the bag Luo Xiaobei was carrying, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, and said after a while, "Eat the solid water in the bag, throw it away if you can't finish it, and reduce the weight."

This kind of solid compressed water was originally prepared for deep space aerospace. It is small in size and high in density. One piece can fill the needs of the day, and the palm-sized box in the bag is equivalent to a large box of bottled water.Luo Xiaobei squeezed his numb shoulders, took out a piece from the box and handed it to Lu Huaixing, and ate one himself, and threw the rest in the snow, but the middle-aged man looked at his bag with hesitation .

"There is only one day, so it doesn't take so much." Lu Huaixing said lightly.

Middle-aged man: "In case our luck is unlucky, how about the second stage?"

"Eat snow."

The young man answered without the slightest hesitation, and his tone was casual, as if snow was one of the home-cooked dishes. He was too sure, and said what he said, as if he was born to be in the command position.

Therefore, the middle-aged man didn't even have the time to think about the threat he had just received, and subconsciously approved his order.

After they all threw away the unimportant things in their bags, Lu Huaixing continued the first topic just now: "The one chasing us is not a wild beast. No large natural wild animal travels under the snow."

Luo Xiaobei: "It is possible for the light tower to reproduce prehistoric extinct creatures with genetic data."

So Lu Huaixing changed his reason: "I didn't hear the breathing of the creature."

Middle-aged man: "Is your hearing so good?"

"One more thing." Lu Huaixing said calmly, "When the light tower competition system broadcasts the mission plot, the last sentence is 'how to find the way down the mountain and return to the warm and comfortable world', the wording is not the mountain, It's not the city, it's the world."

He recounted it so plainly and without emotion, the other two shivered together.

"Damn, it means that those chasing us may not necessarily be alive—"

Luo Xiaobei blocked the middle-aged man's mouth: "Don't say it, let me take it easy."

【Ding--】

There was a crisp sound like a text message reminder, and the sudden text in the sky and the system sound in the ear appeared at the same time:

[CN-021 rookie contestant Lu Yan left the field with regret. 】

The three people stopped, and the broadcast was very short, less than ten seconds, but they stopped in place for a full ten minutes.The middle-aged man's lips trembled for a long time, but he didn't say a word in the end.

"Have the same last name as me."

They turned their heads and saw that Lu Huaixing seemed to be talking to the hairless bird in his arms: "Then call you Lu Yan from now on."

The snow seems to have stopped, and the dark clouds in the sky are also tending to disperse, revealing the pure blue sky on the high mountain. The middle-aged man who came back wiped his face and introduced himself: "Tan Qiu, before entering the tower, he was doing private car sales. of."

Lu Huaixing still only said his name, Luo Xiaobei had a mediocre impression of this person, so he only said two more words: "Luo Xiaobei, student."

But Tan Qiu deserves to be a salesman all the year round, he didn't care about the two people's unenthusiastic attitude, and chatted with each other in a familiar way: "Oh, I have been too comfortable in the past six years, myself, family and friends, clients and neighbors I know, a selected Not at all, I almost forgot that there is a light tower in the world, but I was suddenly selected on New Year's Eve, and it was a difficult novice level as soon as I entered the field."

The young man sitting on the snowdrift tilted his head slightly. Luo Xiaobei knew what he wanted to ask, leaned over and said in a low voice: "Scenes with supernatural factors are generally more difficult to survive, and newcomers have no abilities. The "Light Tower Manual" says 99% of the novice level has a realistic background."

"Don't be superstitious about other people's experience." Lu Huaixing replied softly.

"Yeah." Luo Xiaobei scratched his head, "The Defense Legion actually said so."

Lu Huaixing tugged at the neckline, straightened the fluttering bird, and did not make any further comments on the defense army.

The wind and snow stopped, and it was white in all directions, but going down the mountain must be going to a lower place, and the direction is not difficult to find.The unknown objects in the snow did not appear again. Luo Xiaobei took the initiative to take Lu Huaixing's trekking pole and actively explored the way. Lu Huaixing only pursed his lips, did not speak, and walked forward.

There are snow scenes all the way, and there is only a wooden house with a small red flag on the roof halfway, like a resting point built by extreme enthusiasts, but no one proposed to go in, and just walked around.The altitude gradually decreased, breathing became smoother, and the temperature seemed not to be so low. The sky was getting closer to dusk, and the clear sky and the setting sun shone brightly on the white snow, which was also a rare beauty.

They ate some compressed biscuits while walking on the road. Tan Qiu seemed to slow down after eating, and his voice was a little excited: "Is it coming? If you have a good score in the novice level, the ability rewards that can be unlocked later will be even better. more favorable."

There is a redemption page in the newcomer's competition system interface, but it is locked now.

"Brother Lu, be careful, there's something in the snow—huh? That's in the snow..."

"Compressed biscuit packaging bag?" Tan Qiu walked over, a little joyful, "Are there any other contestants? Survival is a matter of strength."

"I threw it away." Lu Huaixing crushed the packaging bag with his toes, and he tore two gaps of equal length in the corner, which was obvious.

One sentence pierced the good mood of the two of them. The temperature dropped again at some point, and there was a palm-sized black spot in the sunset ahead, which looked very much like the wooden house that passed by before.

Luo Xiaobei turned on the vibration mode: "We're back on the mountain...the supernatural theme! Brother Lu, you wouldn't have guessed that we couldn't go on?"

"Hush." ​​Lu Huaixing raised a finger, "There are people in the cabin."

He was talking about someone, but the expressions of the other two seemed to hear him say "there is a ghost".

Lu Huaixing listened for a while, but his footsteps didn't stop at all. The two cowardly teammates fell behind him with their mouths crooked. When they got closer, they realized that Lu Huaixing didn't lead them to the haunted house. are people.

is a player.

There were five people there, but one of them was the most dazzling. He didn't wear the winter clothing provided by the venue, but was still wearing a dazzling white uniform. It should have blended with the snow, but the red-gold sun pattern on the white uniform was shining. It looks like a flame.

"Defense Officer!" Luo Xiaobei's joyful shout almost caused Xue Beng to advance, and he covered his mouth guiltily and hid behind Lu Huaixing.

When he got closer, Lu Huaixing found that it was really a fire. The defense officer's uniform was obviously expensive - it should have built-in military nano-robots, which can generate heat.The other four players were shivering next to him, stretching out their frozen hands to warm the defender.

The white shadow flashed in front of the crowd, the speed was too fast, and everyone reacted after the heat source was far away, but they only saw the defense officer taking off the coat of a sick and weak young man?

In an instant, everyone had the urge to take out their mobile phones and scan the barcode again to see if the security officer was a fake.

Defense officer Fu Chongming sternly asked, "What's under your clothes?"

The young man had no intention of resisting, he opened his neckline slightly, his ribs were covered with thin muscles, and in the warmest part of his body, a bald bird cub was sleeping, with biscuit crumbs still on the corner of his mouth.

"It's a baby bird, her name is Lu Yan."

The young man's pale body and protruding bony points looked a little awkward, but there was an unbelievably soft smile at the corner of his mouth.

Fu Chongming only glanced at it, and immediately fastened his clothes to prevent the cold wind from entering.The players behind him also suddenly realized, but one person was not at ease: "Sir, can the birds in this competition field be picked up casually, will it be unsafe?"

"No." Fu Chongming looked at Lu Huaixing's face, the oppressive feeling between his brows disappeared in an instant, and patiently explained for him, "The light tower occasionally fluctuates when transporting players, and other small players involved in the real world Animals and plants. There are no living things in this snow-capped mountain, so this bird is naturally not something in the competition field."

After listening to his explanation, the questioning players immediately said nothing, but Fu Chongming continued to say to Lu Huaixing: "I know you, it was the defense officer who took you from the nursing home to report under the light tower. You may not understand this game at all. This is a survival challenge, and there are many dangers everywhere, such a bird that has just hatched for a long time is difficult to feed itself, and if you spend energy to raise it here, it may delay things.”

Lu Huaixing smiled, but didn't really heed this advice.

He was thinking about another thing—most of the defense officers outside the light tower are responsible for maintaining social order. They obviously don't seem to be cruelly throwing vegetative people into dangerous competitions to fend for themselves, which means they were selected by the light tower If the attacker does not report to the light tower, there will be serious consequences, forcing the defense officer to take this measure.

The experiences of these five people were similar, and they were unable to walk down the snow mountain, and returned to the starting point inexplicably, so Fu Chongming also came up with the same speculation as Lu Huaixing, and took them to this mountaineering rest station for a temporary repair. It will be dark soon. Well, the dark night always gives people a bad feeling, not to mention that there is a supernatural plot.

"Have you been chased by an unknown snow bag?" Lu Huaixing asked.

"Hmm." Fu Chongming nodded. There was a dagger on his waist, apparently found in a wooden house. He said, "Under the snow is a humanoid object. I cut off a hand earlier."

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the eaves, and Luo Xiaobei yelled again at a glance. This defense officer really cares about small things, hanging a severed hand under the eaves, which looks like frozen bacon from a distance. .

All the contestants were shaking uniformly, far away from the frozen meat, but they dared not complain to the frozen meat maker.

Fu Chongming raised his eyebrows almost invisibly——

The young man in front of him looked at the severed hand coldly, his expression was no different from that of real bacon.

The contestants commented: "It's getting dark, I think it's a way to start a fire, dead bodies should be afraid of fire."

"Why don't you try to walk down while it's bright, you might meet those monsters again if you wait here."

"Maybe it's reverse thinking, we go up is the real exit?"

"Do you have an idea? You might as well talk about it." He couldn't help asking this young man with a face as heavy as water.

"A little bit." Lu Huaixing carefully held the baby bird, and carefully looked at the defense officer in front of him. His standing posture was as tall and straight as a silver gun, and he was more like a green pine covered with snow. He was in the square, and he still is now. No slack at all, when you get close, you will find that although he is young, he has a vaguely tough and assertive aura, and he deliberately restrains him, making an appearance of gentleness and patience.

"Just say it." The defense officer encouraged.

Lu Huaixing's line of sight from his head to the bottom of his feet was as rigorous as an X-ray scan. After a while, he seemed to think it was feasible, and said in a flat voice: "Mr. Grab the stuff and show me."

After a pause, he asked inexplicably: "Mr. Fu, a mere 'B' level, shouldn't be difficult, right?"

The author has something to say: Lu Mou: Isn’t this Mr. Fu, a mere B-level defense officer?

Fu Mou: ...
