After the cannon fodder, he became the imperial group's favorite Omega

The dust-laden centuries-old moisture hits his face.

Yu Ruan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the game scene of the competition could be made so realistic, he couldn't help being a little surprised.

"Holographic projection technology." Gu Yu walked in first, and took off a small oil lamp for lighting from the wall. "It's relatively common in the military, but it's not popular for civilian use. It's normal if you haven't seen it before."

Nodding with half understanding, Yu Ruan followed his pace.The light brain popped up the 3D graphics of the entire medieval castle at the right time. The interior of the light blue transparent castle was shrouded in mist, and the outer entrances were lit up one after another, and a dense red appeared.

Apparently, members of other groups also started to enter the map.

Yu Ruan lowered his head and murmured: "The team that reaches the top of the tower and obtains the treasure within the specified time will be awarded [-] points... The whole game adopts a points system, and every key item obtained will be awarded [-] points. The score of the team determines the ranking...?"

Further down, he was shocked by a line of words that jumped into his field of vision: "...teams with less than [-] points are directly eliminated??"

In other words, according to the rules of this competition, if you want to enter the final ranking, you must win at least six key items in this competition.Or choose the 1+1 mode, relying on customs clearance treasures and a key item to keep the quota.

Not to mention the difficulty of obtaining the customs clearance treasure, just seeing the 6 characters is enough to make people dizzy.With a little imagination, Yu Ruan felt a burst of suffocation.

Fortunately, Gu Yu is next to him now. If it were Le Meng, Yu Ruan felt that the scene would probably turn into two people standing together in a daze, holding hands until the end of the game.

Yu Ruan was immediately in awe of Gu Yu, the former champion.

With a sideways glance at him, Gu Yu said, "Last year's competition was not so troublesome."

"?"

"Last year, you only need to grab the mission items at the finish line, and your partner is just a burden."

"So..." Yu Ruan seemed to understand, "Is it more difficult this year and changed to a cooperative mode, so as to avoid the same situation as last year?"

"Ah."

"..." The co-authorship turned out to be your fault.

Changing the rules of the entire game by himself, with such a super player as a teammate, Yu Ruan didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

While talking, the two turned from the secret passage to the ground.In the air, the water vapor became more and more dense, mixed with a faint smell of fishy smell and rust.The stone steps under his feet were extremely slippery and covered with moss.In the distance, there was a faint sound of water flowing from the passage.

The gray light of the oil lamp pierced through the spider web and pushed open the damp and blackened wooden door in front of him.Further on, a dark waterway with gurgling water jumped into view.

Probably the first small problem of the game level.

The distance between the two sides of the sewer is very long, and it is obviously impossible to pass it by jumping manually.Yu Ruan looked around and found that this place was as dilapidated as a secret passage.The guardrail used to block foreign objects was badly corroded, and the wrist-thick sling was suspended high in the air, with a net of broken wood hanging below it.

It seems that if you want to reach the other side, you can only find a way to break the rope and cross the river by stepping on the fallen logs.

Looking at Gu Yu who was carrying the oil lamp, Yu Ruan tentatively asked, "Shall I go to the west?"

Gu Yu said "Yes" without any objection, handed him the oil lamp, turned and walked to the other side.

The oil lamp is not big, and only a small piece of light can be reflected.Soon, Gu Yu's figure disappeared into the darkness, leaving only a vague gray shadow.Yu Ruan raised the lamp and looked over, and saw his slender fingers touching the surface of the green brick, and knocked casually three times.

A little dazed, Yu Ruan blinked and couldn't help asking: "Is there any question?"

"The mechanism may be inside the wall, look for it." Gu Yu said.

Only then did Yu Ruan realize it belatedly.He responded softly, carried the oil lamp, quickly walked to the other side, and squatted down near the source.

He remembered that when he just walked down the steps, he saw a glimmer of light under the moss beside the river.Maybe, the agency is hidden under here.

As the light source approaches, the light refracted in the crevices of the moss becomes more intense.Yu Ruan stretched out his hand to push away the moss, and there was a coldness between his fingertips. The dark brown brass cover appeared in front of his eyes, revealing its original appearance instantly.

really!

Yu Ruan immediately opened the door and saw the hidden compartment behind the door.A crossbow machine with exquisite structure lay quietly in it, and three crossbow arrows were placed beside it, reflecting sharp silver light in the darkness.

...how is this?

Not to mention the interstellar era, even when Yu Ruan was still living on Earth, he never touched a crossbow.But in this era, technology is changing with each passing day, and photon technology is very mature. Such precision cold weapons should have been lost long ago and thrown into the ancient museum.

Even if the contestant intended for the contestants to use the crossbow machine to shoot through the rope, they only released three crossbow-arrows.This is too...

Yu Ruan was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously called out to the person behind him: "Gu Yu..."

Hearing this shout, the sound in the east stopped.After a while, a cold voice appeared beside him: "What's wrong?"

Yu Ruan took the things in the dark grid in his hands, and said in a helpless tone, "I may have found the answering tool, but..."

He didn't continue talking, but handed the crossbow to Gu Yu.I didn't see clearly from a distance just now, but now with the light of the oil lamp, Yu Ruan finally discovered one thing——

Not only did the contestant only give three arrows, but one was blunter than the other.With that kind of sharpness, it is afraid that it will be used to poke people, and there will be no breaks when an arrow goes down.

That is to say, these three arrows must be measured by themselves in order of use.Otherwise, the cluster of arrows that could have been shot would not be sharp enough to cut the rope.Then they can only stop here.

Classic game.

One's own technology obviously cannot be counted on.Now that things have happened, we can only see whether Gu Yu is familiar with this thing.

Unexpectedly, seeing what he handed over, Alpha frowned slightly and asked, "You know him?"

……really.

This thing is too unpopular, it's normal if you don't know it.Yu Ruan sighed, and took the initiative to explain to him: "This is a very old cold weapon, a bit similar to a bow and arrow, but with much stronger penetrating power..."

Trying to search his mind, Yu Ruan explained the usage and advantages of the crossbow machine to the people in front of him.

During the commentary, he took the time to look at the strategy map and found that there were indeed many people like them who were stuck on the outermost layer.

Gu Yu looked down at the crossbow in his hand, with an unclear expression.After a long time, he said "hmm" and walked towards the direction where the rope net was hanging: "Try first."

Hearing this sentence, Yu Ruan quickly followed.

According to the memories of her previous life, Yu Ruan drew a picture of a gourd painting for Gu Yu, and told him: "Well... this should be the trigger, and this is the scope. Align this with the place you want to aim at, and pull the trigger without shaking your hand. Just..." is ready to use.

Before he finished speaking, he saw the crossbow in the other party's hand - the arrow flew out suddenly.Before he could react, the arrow cluster hit the rope with a muffled sound, plopped, and fell into the water.

Yu Ruan: "..." So accurate!

For a moment, Yu Ruan was in awe.He looked up at Alpha in front of him, completely admiring him.

On the contrary, Gu Yu frowned, with a dignified expression.He glanced at the rope net indifferently, took another sharper crossbow arrow from Yu Ruan's hand, put it into the crossbow trigger, glanced briefly, and pulled the trigger.

This time, it was far from smooth as last time.

"--thump!"

The sound of objects falling into the water came from afar, and Yu Ruan blinked blankly, subconsciously looking at the only crossbow arrow left in his hand.

Gu Yu also had a bad expression on his face.He pursed his lips slightly and said, "The center of gravity of each arrow is different."

The center of gravity is different, which means that the arcs of each arrow flying out are different.Although the penetrating power of the crossbow is strong, the arc can basically be ignored at close range.But for a beginner who has just learned to use it, this can be said to be very troublesome.

The rope that hung the wood was extremely thick, and it had absorbed enough water vapor, so it was extremely tough, and it was basically impossible to ignite it.If you can't aim at the landing point and cut it off with one arrow, then thinking about crossing the river is like a fantasy.

Yu Ruan was worried for a while, then glanced at the remaining kerosene in the oil lamp: "How about...we dismantle the oil lamp and pour kerosene on it?"

Anyway, the weight of wood is sufficient, even if it is burned, it will take a while to burn.The impact of the drop into the water was strong enough to extinguish the flames, and barely enough to use it as a stepping stone to jump over.

The only downside may be that they lose their lighting, which will be very troublesome in the next exploration.

Gu Yu looked sideways, pondered for a moment, then stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the light."

Passing the lamp obediently, Yu Ruan watched him squat down, remove the iron plate at the bottom of the oil lamp, put it in his hand and try the weight.Then, he lifted his chin a little farther away: "Go over there."

Yu Ruan stepped back obediently.

Gu Yu held the lamp in his hand and didn't speak for a while.Suddenly, he threw the item in his hand lightly, and the kerosene lamp drew a beautiful parabola from the air, and slammed into the pile of wood, barely hanging in the gap.

Taking advantage of the moment before the glass cover slipped off, he raised the crossbow, aimed at the kerosene lamp in the gap in the rope net, and directly pulled the trigger.

"--boom!"

Only a shocking explosion was heard, and the transparent glass cover shattered in response!Countless transparent slag fell into the water with that momentum, flew from a distance, and hit the ground with a "ding dong".

Yu Ruan looked down at the distance.No more, no less, just one step away.A little further forward, I am afraid that I will be sent out directly by this piece of glass.

"..." He completely admired the other party this time.

With the shattering of the lampshade, sparks sparked and turned into a raging fire in an instant.The flame greedily licked the rope, and quickly escaped through the kerosene, illuminating the entire sewer brightly.

After a while, the ropes that bound the wood were burnt to nothing, and fell into the water with a "plop".

The underwater was illuminated for a moment, shining white light.Soon, the entire tunnel returned to silence, returning to the dim appearance it had before.Only the optical brain on the wrist emitted a faint glow.

Looking at the past by light, you can see the wood scattered on the water surface, which can be piled up into a platform for stepping on.The distance is still far away, but at least it is much stronger than the width of the river that was completely impossible to cross before.

Yu Ruan walked over, briefly checked the distance with his eyes, and couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Fortunately, it's much better... It's a pity that it is still a particularly difficult thing for a physically weak person like him to pass smoothly.

Subconsciously looking at Gu Yu, the Alpha beside him was calm as usual: this distance is too easy for him.There is no need to worry about whether you can pass.

Yu Ruan suddenly fell into a tangle.

He was hesitating whether to tell the truth and confess to the other party.Suddenly, the other party walked to the river in silence, squatted down, and re-tightened the shoelaces.Immediately stood up, glanced at him, with a calm expression: "Come here."

"...?" Yu Ruan walked over in a daze.

What is he going to do?

"Close your eyes."

Yu Ruan closed her eyes obediently, before she could react, she suddenly fell into a warm embrace.

The author has something to say: I will work hard tomorrow and try to finish the chapter of the dungeon, so I won’t delay everyone qwq
