In the woods, Li Lai blesses himself with the lightness technique, and quickly shuttles back and forth between the trees, looking for the trace of the fifth team.

Finally, he stopped somewhere in the forest.

Here are the most traces.

Obviously last night, the fifth team rested here. There are rocks on three sides of this place, and there are sparse trees in front of it. It is a good place to rest.

In addition to the footprints on the ground, there are some food residues. It can be seen that the fifth team stayed here for a long time.

But...why did everyone disappear?

Li Lai was suspended in mid-air, and used the communication device to contact the captain of the fifth team again, but the message was sent out, but there was still no response.

He didn't give up and continued to contact other people.

As the team leader, he has everyone's communication number.

However, no one responded to him.

But if you use voice and video, it will remind him that the other party is not in the service area...

There was a haze over his heart.

In particular, when he found bullet marks from laser guns on the surrounding tree trunks, his mood became more solemn.

Apparently, the fifth team has encountered a crisis, and now they don't know where they are going, and their life and death are uncertain.

Li Lai gritted his teeth, and followed the bullet marks all the way, but when he was about to plunge into the forest and go deep into it, his body suddenly froze.

"Hissing——" the sound of spitting out messages was so subtle that ordinary people could barely hear it, but Li Lai, who was always mobilizing the wind element to observe various movements, still noticed it.

He froze in place, and through the wind element, he heard more subtle noises—accompanied by the weird hissing sound, and the creaking sound of scales scraping against the trees, it was very light and small, but it made Li Lai's hair stand on end.

He forced himself to calm down.

In the wild, only a calm mind can keep him alive in various crises. Once you fall into panic, you are not far from death.

Finally, Li Lai discovered the source of the sound.

On a big tree right in front of him, a huge yellow-brown snake that almost merged with the surrounding environment hung coiled on the tree trunk.

It was waiting there, on the path he had to pass.

The head was hidden among the dense leaves, the slender tongue was sticking out gently, and the huge eyes stared at him coldly.

If he just flew over like that, it would definitely rush over at a certain moment and swallow him in one gulp.

Li Lai had no doubts about this.

With the mouth size of this giant snake, it can completely swallow a grown man in one gulp.

"Plop, plop -" His heart was beating like a drum, but he didn't choose to turn around and run away.

This might irritate the giant snake, or get its attention.

Facing it, he stepped back very slowly, his spirit was highly tense, and the wind elements surrounded him, ready to form a wind shield to protect him at any time.

Fortunately, the giant snake did not attack him.

It spat out snake letters, and stared in his direction without blinking, but it didn't chase after him.

Li Lai didn't know how he escaped to the shore safely, until he finally hid in a crevice of stones, he swallowed his saliva and panted heavily.

No one is afraid of death.

Of course, except for those brave men with sick brains.

Thinking of the group of brave men who always had a hippie smile on their faces, Li Lai relaxed strangely, and resumed his thoughts in a panic.

Recalling what happened just now, he could clearly feel that the giant snake was a three-star beast.

A new three-star beast has appeared in the Asmo Mountains!

This discovery shocked him.

There was only one three-star rock beast in the Asmo Mountains before, and it was also the target of his vigilance, but they were lucky that they didn't encounter this rock beast all the way across the mountains.

But now, a more powerful one appeared.

After Li Lai found a safe place, he immediately sent the news back to the headquarters on the border of the imperial city, and reported the disappearance of the fifth team.

When transmitting the image of the giant snake back to the headquarters, he also observed it carefully, and found that the abdomen of the giant snake did not bulge.

According to the characteristics of the snake, if it swallowed up the fifth team, its stomach would definitely not be so flat now.

And even if you encounter a giant snake, the fifth team has wind elementalists, and the giant snake has strong explosive power, but in terms of agility and speed, it should not be as good as the soldiers.

So it shouldn't be possible for all the soldiers to be eaten by giant snakes, there will always be some who escape, but...

Why can't the communicator get in touch?

The headquarters quickly sent back the news - Admiral Joyce asked him to return to Lanyue City immediately. The Marshal will lead the element division engineering team and production team to arrive in a few days. He has already applied to the Marshal. He can then Follow along back to the imperial city.

As for the fifth team...it didn't mention a word.

Li Lai understood what Admiral Joyce meant—abandon the fifth team and return as soon as possible.

His eyes almost split open.

The fifth team has 32 people, how can they just give up?

With trembling hands, he sent a communication request to Admiral Joyce, and the other party answered his voice.

"Admiral Joyce..."

As soon as Li Lai opened his mouth, Admiral Joyce's voice sounded faintly.

"Li Lai, you have done a good job on this mission." He whispered, "A total of 192 people not only escorted all the targets to Lanyue City, but also a total of 128 people survived."

"This is already a very remarkable survival rate. I have also seen your performance along the way. When you come back, I will personally award you."

In the escort missions in previous years, the death rate was definitely more than half, but this time, Li Lai's completion was good enough to be called superior.

However, Li Lai was not happy.

He knew it wasn't because of how good he was, it was all because of the sacrifices of the braves...

"Admiral Joyce, those 23 fighters and 9 brave men... can't they be saved?"

Li Lai lowered his voice, he suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said, "I left the flight monitor behind, Admiral Joyce, what happened to them? Why did they disappear?"

Admiral Joyce paused, and said in a low voice: "They were attacked by an interstellar beast in the middle of the night and fled all the way into the jungle. At a certain point, the flight monitor lost contact."

"There was no light at night, and it was impossible to tell where they were last disappeared based on the images of the surveillance cameras. Perhaps they had already died."

"But I didn't find the body here..." Li Lai said eagerly.

"Even if there are no corpses, how likely do you think they are to survive in the Morris Mountains?"

Admiral Joyce was so calm that he sounded almost indifferent.

Li Lai couldn't help being stunned.

He raised his eyes and looked at the lush virgin forest in the distance through the cracks in the rocks.

Not impossible, but...

Very small.

"So, let's go back to Lanyue City."

Admiral Joyce said, "Sacrifice is inevitable. The empire still needs you. You are about to be promoted to two stars. You are a very good elementalist. There are still many people waiting for you to rescue in the future."

Li Lai hung up the call in a daze.

He stayed quietly in the crevice of the stone, a crystal liquid slipped from the corner of his eyes, and he raised his hand to cover his eyes.

in case……

He didn't leave them on the other side yesterday, if he had insisted on letting them cross the river, would the result have been different?

"Buzz—" The communicator vibrated, and someone called.

Li Lai quickly wiped his eyes, looked at the caller ID on the communicator, and chose to answer the call.

"Xiaocheng." He lowered his voice to conceal the strangeness in his voice.

"Brother, I heard from Wen Jishan that you have arrived in Lanyue City? Is everything going well?" Li Zhecheng's voice sounded from the opposite side.

Li Lai let out an ah, which was a response.

"Master Marshal went to Lanyue City, you should come back with him, we brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, we will go to eat and drink milk tea then."

"You've been in the army, so you probably haven't had milk tea. Your Majesty has researched it and opened several shops in the imperial city."

Hearing his hearty words, Li Lai smiled and said, "Okay, but I may have something to do here, I'll go back later."

Although he tried his best to hide it, his voice was still a little choked up, and he didn't know if the person on the other side could hear it.

"what's up?"

"Military secret."

Li Zhecheng on the opposite side was silent for a while, and asked, "Did His Majesty ask you to catch the traitor?"

Li Lai was startled, traitor?

He had some doubts in his heart, but at this moment he could only follow his younger brother's words and say, "You guessed it yourself."

"Hey, that's fine." Li Zhecheng said, "Then be careful and be safe. I'm the only brother like you, so don't hang up."

"I know, you should protect His Majesty well, and don't make any mistakes."

Li Zhecheng nodded over there.

"Well, then I'll hang up first, I have something to do."

"it is good."

Seeing the communicator return to the original screen, Li Lai sniffed and his expression became firm.

Xiaocheng, I'm sorry.

He got out from the crack in the rock and continued to search for clues around him.

If he wanted to see people alive and dead, if he left them in the wild and went back like this, he would probably have a bad conscience for the rest of his life.

The players were unaware of the trouble Lieutenant Colonel Li Lai encountered. They drove the suspension car, carefully avoiding all kinds of wild monsters, and stopped the car when they came to a low-lying place.

This time they went out to spawn monsters, and they also broadcast live.

Someone in the forum has already written down the route and made it into a strategy. These are the precious wealth of the second test players.

As a well-known figure in the game circle, professional players don't mind making their strategy public, and some are even particularly active, and will end up correcting some wrong operations.

After stopping the car, the players used branches and leaves as a cover. This car is not theirs and cannot be put into the backpack.

The system distributes a transport kit, which has two positions to accommodate the transport, but only in the bound state. The suspension vehicle was lent to them by the army and has to be returned later.

What's more, the car is so tattered that they don't like it.

After burying the car, they moved carefully in the jungle.

I can finally push the monsters!

The players are very excited, and it is more exciting to play games and fight.

The players in the imperial city have experience in following the escort team, and have also encouraged NPCs to help them spawn monsters, so in the wild, Xu Yuheng handed over the command to Qingyan.

Not all the players from the imperial city came out, basically only the professional players of the team, the number was around 40.

As for the other ordinary players, many of them are still not online, probably because they haven't been offline for too long, they are caught up in life, or they don't want to play games for a while.

But professional players are different, this is a job, and they can do it if they don't want to.

More than 100 people were divided into ten teams by Qingyan.

The game does a good job in the voice system. The team can be divided into sub-teams, and even the voice of the team channel can be temporarily blocked, so as not to interfere with each other, and can be kept as a whole.

After dispersing, the players entered the sea like mud cows, appearing inconspicuous in the vast wilderness.

Soon a small team was eyeing a one-star beast.

There is still room for ten people to fight a one-star beast, but how to avoid attracting a large group of helpers after pushing the monster is a problem that needs to be solved.

These ten players carefully observed and discussed in the team channel. They didn't know that someone was watching them above their heads.

Far away in the darkroom of the palace in the imperial city, Xu Sili controlled the flight monitor and observed the players through the monitor screen.

He also attaches great importance to the players pushing monsters in the wild for the first time.

It can almost be guessed that this wild land in the future belongs to the player, and these interstellar beasts are also the player's experience points and materials.

Xu Sili had nothing to do, so he watched the "live broadcast" of the players to see if this group of people could be called the "fourth natural disaster".

Outside the protective barrier, the interstellar beasts all move together in groups. They are in groups of twos and threes, and the distance from each other is not far away. Now we must find a way to lure the interstellar beasts away one by one and destroy them one by one.

The first team, start to move.

A hundred meters away from them, there is a group of interstellar beasts that look like rhinos.

According to the information obtained from Li Lai before, this one-star beast called a rhinoceros is a herbivore, and its movements are relatively slow, but its collision ability is excellent.

The huge horns on their heads are enough to knock down a century-old tree. Anyway, with the blood volume of the players, they will definitely die after just rubbing their skins.

Among the low bushes, a rhinoceros wandered leisurely, tearing the grass leaves from the bushes.

Its eyes are red, and although it is herbivorous, it does not mean it is mild-tempered.

At this time, a small stone flew over from a bush not far away and hit it straight on the head.

For the rough-skinned rhinoceros, this attack can't do much damage, but it's enough to irritate it.

It lowered its head, exhaled white turbid air from its nostrils, then roared angrily, and rushed towards the striped beast not far from the rhino horn herd.

This unexpected attack directly knocked the spotted beast into the air.

Lying in the grass in the opposite direction, the player responsible for attracting monsters looked at this scene, and couldn't help but have many question marks above his head.

Damn it, is this rhinoceros blind?

It was obviously a stone thrown from its front, why did it run to attack the spotted beast behind its rear?

And, it's not over yet.

I saw that the spotted beast didn't die after being knocked into the air, and the two struggled on the ground, shaking their heads and standing up.

Then it looked at the rhinoceros, and its eyes turned red.

"Aooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon" and then gathered a large group of spotted beasts, all of them rushed towards the rhinoceros, as if to tear the rhinoceros to shreds.

Seeing this scene, the irritable rhinoceros was not stupid. It turned around and ran away. Following the roaring footsteps, another burst of footsteps followed - it turned out that the herd of rhinoceros organized when they saw someone bullying their door. participated in the battle.

The ferocious interstellar beasts collided with each other, flying all over the sky, and smashing their heads.

The player lying in the grass still held a stone in his hand. He watched this scene from a distance, opened his mouth in bewilderment, and stared blankly.

Xu Sili, who was observing with a monitor, was also a little surprised when he saw what happened.

Star Beasts...

It was more brutal than he imagined.

This is still on the plains, and the danger is much lower than in the jungle, but who can resist this method of fighting in groups?

but……

Now there are players!

"Iori, 666, I asked you to attract monsters, how did it turn into a big fight scene?"

"Iori is awesome! It's you!"

"Hahahaha I'm fucking laughing to death, a murder caused by a stone! 6666" the player named Iori lay down in the grass, listening to his teammates teasing on the channel, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

He is a warrior of the dark system, and he is good at lurking, and the fight between the two groups of interstellar beasts will not affect him.

"Captain, what should we do now?" He asked in a low voice on the channel.

After being messed up like this, the players of other teams are not very good at acting, because other types of interstellar beasts have also participated, and the scope of this nonsensical "fight" is gradually expanding.

"Let's muddy the water." At this moment, Qingyan's voice sounded in the team channel.

This is the authority of the team leader, even players who have temporarily blocked the voice of the team can hear it.

"Even if we die, we can resurrect on the spot."

Qingyan said, "Team mode, the experience gained, there are two biggest factors that affect it-the output damage ranking, and the fatal damage to monsters."

"For example, for the last blow, the experience points obtained will be doubled."

Qingyan licked her lips, "The current melee mode is beneficial to us, find the right opportunity to make up the knife, and when the melee is over, the corpses of these interstellar beasts will also be a rich fortune."

How long will it take for them to grind through the star beasts one by one to empty the blood bars of these one or two star beasts?What's more, these beasts like to group together.

Such a big melee is a good opportunity to grab experience and head!

Qingyan was already quite crazy, such an exciting big scene would only excite her.

"Iori, go and create more murders."

"There are other dark warriors, you can also learn from Yagami, remember, the more chaotic here, the greater our chances!"

Everyone thought about it and thought it was the same.

Anyway, if you die, you can be resurrected on the spot, but you have to wait for half an hour. As long as you do enough damage before dying, you can get experience points.

Give it a go and exchange your bike for a motorcycle!

fuck him!

Everyone has the ability to gamble, especially when the benefits are large enough and the losses are within the tolerance range.

All the players got excited, including Yagami who "made a stroke of magic".

After Qingyan gave the order, he turned into a shadow again, and moved further away towards Lanyue City. He was looking this way, but the interstellar beast that was not going to participate moved over.

Although excited, they did not lose their minds.

If a powerful interstellar beast was provoked from a distance, and thus crashed into the guardian circle of Lanyue City, then they would have to die as an apology.

Cloud players watching the live broadcast, apart from film and television works, when have you ever seen such a big scene?

Other online games, like this kind of large-scale scenes, get disconnected every minute, not to mention various delays and frame drops. When they observe the live broadcast, they can obviously feel the same fluency as usual.

"This game is too awesome! When will the gaming helmet be released? I want to play it!"

"The public beta will have to wait at least next year, isn't there a second beta?"

"Fuck, let's just open the game! I want to play, but they've wiped out all the monsters. Let's fight in the future?"

"Weakly ask, isn't the game mechanism of Star Era very unfriendly? Why do you all want to play so much?"

"Brother, aren't you watching the live broadcast? Are you not excited to see this scene? Don't listen to the brainwashing packages sent by those marketing accounts. You must have your own judgment ability."

"That's right, it's just a test now. What about bb? It's not a public test. Even if there are still problems and bugs, the public test can be updated and improved! This is an epoch-making holographic online game!"

I don't know if it's the water army or the person who asked the question sincerely, anyway, as soon as the words came out, the cloud players from all walks of life sprayed them so that they didn't dare to speak anymore.

There are indeed a lot of brainwashing packages of Star Era on the Internet, but Star Era's basic position in the game circle is stable, and even because of this wave of slander, more people know about this game.

It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, and made a wave of advertisements in disguise.

Looking at the game again, the monster-inducing player successfully angered two interstellar herds.

Seeing the four interstellar herds of beasts attacking each other, even the ground trembled. Not only were the players who attracted the monsters not afraid, they continued to provoke troubles further afield.

[Player [Qing Yan] deals a fatal blow to [Rhinoceros lv10], and the experience value is doubled]

[Player [Daylight] assists in killing [Striped Beast lv11]...]

【…】

Message after message reminded the team channel to refresh, and soon reached the point of refreshing the screen.

There are constantly players upgrading, and there are also players who are killed or trampled by interstellar beasts because they can't dodge enough.

A Caizi hid in a tree and shivered while broadcasting live.

She is a water-type player, and the only skills she has learned are water healing and water mist. Apart from auxiliary functions, she is not aggressive, so she naturally didn't think about hunting monsters below.

However, her level is considered very high among players, at level 12.

Because she is a water healing master, Li Lai and other NPCs took special care of her during the escort, and she could gain experience if she was successfully treated with the water healing technique, which made her a lot of money.

Looking at the big scuffle below, she, who is naturally timid, didn't think about going down to join in the fun.

"Don't be cowardly, A Caizi, Dad sent you a bazooka, go down and charge! Don't be cowardly!"

"Hahaha, I like to see A Caizi act like this."

"Touch Caitou, don't listen to their nonsense, just hide in the tree and watch the excitement."

"Speaking of A Caizi, you zoom in the camera to the right, wow, there are two handsome players there!"

A Caizi blinked, saw this request, and looked curiously towards the battlefield on the right.

That's where the war started, and it was also the most intense battle, because the smell of blood was the strongest, and the interstellar beasts were all aroused to be ferocious.

Of course, rhinoceros are inherently fierce.

In this chaotic battlefield, two elegant figures shuttled through it, harvesting a dying spotted beast in a few rounds, and the upgraded light continued to rise from them.

Xu Sili also recovered from this divine unfolding early on, and noticed these two figures.

It's impossible not to notice, because one of them is his second brother Xu Yuheng.

He was dressed in blue clothes, and the glasses on the bridge of his nose made him look gentle, but the sternness in his eyes, his calmness and relentlessness in the face of interstellar beasts made it absolutely impossible for people to see him clearly .

Turquoise wind elements gathered around him.

He moved sideways in mid-air, stabbing out the long sword in his hand continuously, making up the knife or attacking the weak points of the interstellar beast, causing critical damage one by one.

And beside him, there was a young man in hemp yellow clothes.

His body was also blessed with the Lightness Technique, and he cooperated with Xu Yuheng tacitly. During his actions, he played with the Ivy Technique and the dagger in his hand.

This is definitely high play!

And it's not high play in the traditional sense.

Like traditional mobile and online game players, they have game awareness and are ahead of other ordinary players, but in holographic games, only game awareness is not enough.

That can only help you pass levels faster and find the correct strategy faster, but participating in battles often tests your motor nerves and combat awareness.

Like Xu Yuheng and Bai Feng, although they only have level 5 - of course they are no longer there, but they can achieve a record that other level 10 players in the imperial city may not be able to complete.

"Ah, Jade God is so handsome!"

"Fuck, I didn't expect Jade God to be so ruthless in fights when he looked at the gentleman."

"Who is playing with him? This fight is so good, it's like watching a martial arts movie."

"Fengshen! Yu Siqing's deputy head is also very good!"

Xu Sili couldn't see the barrage, but he felt that if this scene was recorded and posted on the forum, the second brother would probably attract a lot of fans.

That's fine too.

After all, the second brother has set up a mercenary group to spread his reputation, and he can recruit more masters in the future. As for the second brother, does he have the heart to manage the mercenary group well...

Let's talk about this.

Xu Sili thought so, and his eyes were quickly attracted to other places.

Not far from his second brother, a shadow approached quietly, and then under his gaze, the shadow transformed into a hand, holding a laser gun and firing a bullet secretly.

Xu Yuheng plunged his sword into the head of a striped beast, ending its life. However, after the interstellar beast crashed to the ground, the experience point reminder he received was——

[Auxiliary kill [striped beast lv10], gain experience...]

Auxiliary kill?

He frowned, had no time to think, and continued to fight.

However, when he was prompted for the assist kill for the third time, Xu Yuheng finally became vigilant, and he realized—"Ding Dong—" At this time, his communicator sounded a message reminder.

Xu Yuheng blinked, who would use the communication device to contact him at this time?Could it be Xiao Wu?

While manipulating the wind element, dodging the star beast's attack like a leaf, he glanced at the communicator.

[Anonymous]: (333, 158), someone is robbing monsters.

Seeing this message, Xu Yuheng's heart skipped a beat, and he was almost hit by a rhinoceros when he was distracted.

He quickly used the flying technique to fly into the air.

anonymous……

Besides Xiao Li, who else would give him such news?Coordinates are also included.

so……

Xiaoli is in Lanyue City?Watching him around?Or did Xiao Wu send him the message?

One question after another came to Xu Yuheng's mind, but he knew that now was not the time to think about these things.

Someone robbed the monster, and even robbed three of his heads!

How can this be tolerated?

He is also not very good tempered, and he is very dissatisfied with the fact that he was robbed by monsters after working so hard to wear a trace of blood.

So as soon as he turned around, he headed towards the coordinates sent anonymously.

Because of his vigilance, he sharply saw the shadow hiding in the grass, and out of the shadow popped out a hand holding a gun, the muzzle of which was pointing towards Bai Feng.

Apparently, the monster hunters saw that he was not moving, so they turned their attention to Bai Feng again.

Xu Yuheng pursed his lips, and a trace of anger welled up in his black eyes.

He raised his long sword and quickly flew towards the shadow.

The shadow also spotted him, and the shadow quickly gave up on Bai Feng's monster, and fired a shot in Xu Yuheng's direction.

Xu Yuheng dodged to the side and easily dodged the laser bomb, but although he was unharmed, his speed inevitably slowed down.

This is obviously the purpose of that shadow.

When Xu Yuheng dodged, the shadow had quickly put away the laser gun, and was crawling towards the deeper jungle at full speed, and he was about to run away.
