Zhou Taotao was shocked and touched his chin thoughtfully, wondering if they could use it. Yan Jue waved his hands repeatedly and shook his head frantically: "If you want to thank anyone, you should thank Nuoer. I have nothing to do with this. I'm just a bystander."
In order to prevent the other party from using the thank you to him to improve his favorability, Yan Jue immediately asked, "When you use the recording, won't your own people be knocked down? I mean the ones who play the recording."
"No." Wen Xuyang didn't expect Yan Jue to ask this, so he explained, "There's no one else at the border except criminals, so we only left a loudspeaker there, and everyone else retreated to a safe distance wearing earplugs. The recording was also set to play and pause at a timer."
It is precisely because there is no one around that they boldly use recordings. If they were in a crowded place, it would be difficult to fool people into falling asleep on a large scale after completing the task.
"Is that so?" Realizing his own folly, Yan Jue rubbed his nose and changed the subject: "Didn't they say that the power in the recording will gradually disappear with the number of times it is used? Then I'll go back and ask Nordo to help me record a few clips and keep them. In case you need them, you can access them at any time."
Wen Xuyang nodded: "Thank you, I'll leave it to Director Pan."
Yan Jue naturally kept saying "you're welcome".
A few minutes later, the three arrived at their destination. Yan Jue estimated that this fully enclosed area was at least the size of a football field. The high ceiling and all-steel structure gave it a mechanical aesthetic. The floor and walls were clean, giving no indication of its former use.
Standing in this vast, empty plain, Yan Jue was in a state of embarrassment. Noel had said the gift was huge, but it didn't have to be this big.
Is this intended to be used to hold little monsters?
Looking at the gift box on the tablet, Yan Jue sincerely hoped that the "big" was not calculated according to Noel's size, otherwise, it would be a waste of the space.
Despite the experience of the first two gifts, Yan Jue still prepared himself mentally before ordering the gift box. After a few seconds of waiting, Yan Jue's vision blurred, and he smelled a strong smell of the sea before a hand grabbed his arm and snatched the tablet from his hand.
"run!"
Yan Jue subconsciously turned and took a step, obeying the pull on his arm and running out, but he was still a step too slow. The moment the cold, slippery unknown object touched his back, an irresistible force came over him, almost crushing him to the ground. Fortunately, Wen Xuyang, who was beside him, helped him up and saved him.
Standing outside the door in a daze, gasping for breath, Yan Jue's head was numb and he couldn't react to what was happening for a while, until there was a "bang", and a pink tentacle was squeezed out from the door and fell at his feet. He shuddered all over, and his first reaction after coming to his senses was to vomit.
He ran slowly just now, and the monster in the door hit his entire back directly. Now his back was sticky and full of fishy and bloody smell.
He is not clean anymore.
Yan Jue stood there frozen, goosebumps popping up all over his body.
After Wen Xuyang stood still, he immediately looked at Yan Jue. After discovering his plight, he immediately said considerately, "I'll take you to take a shower."
Not only Yan Jue, he and Zhou Taotao also had some mucus on their bodies.
Even Wen Xuyang, who had seen many spectacular scenes, was speechless at the sight. From his perspective, after Yan Jue clicked the screen, a giant, soft, pink mass appeared ten meters in front of him, spreading out from the roof. Fortunately, he was alert and noticed that the mass wasn't fully exposed, so he quickly pulled Yan Jue away. Otherwise, the three of them would have been trapped.
After taking a shower and changing clothes, Yan Jue sat in Wen Xuyang's dormitory drinking hot tea to calm down.
"Are you okay?" Zhou Taotao looked worried. "Don't blame Noel. He warned me it was very big..."
Yan Jue wanted to cry but had no tears: "Who would have thought it would be so big? Did he send a monster here? It almost crushed us to death."
Will your continent of Atlantis ever be restored?
Zhou Taotao cleared his throat and whispered in defense, "Lieutenant Colonel Wen went to see it. The monster wasn't actually big enough to fill the entire venue. It was just that its tentacles were so numerous and long that it had that terrifying effect. There's still plenty of empty space in the venue."
"We were unlucky and didn't find a good position."
Zhou Taotao patted his shoulder sympathetically and handed him the tablet beside him: "Would you like to see the system description and Noel's notes?"
Yan Jue took it with a bitter face.
[The gift has been delivered.
Arunas: A specialty from the continent of Atlantis, a gift from the mermaid prince Noel Atlantis.]
Why are the fish fleeing, why is the water flowing backward, why is this sea silent and as silent as death? It is this, the pink nightmare Arunas, that lives here.
The mermaids are the absolute rulers of Atlantis. However, the powerful, deaf sea monster Arunas is clearly unaffected by their power. Just leave it alone? How could they? The word "retreat" doesn't exist in the mermaids' vocabulary. As a sea monster, it's also the perfect test subject for the mermaids.
A kind note from Noel Atlantis:
"Teacher, you have to thank my father this time. He helped me catch this. He said that although the Arunas are hard to catch, their legs contain energy that's a great tonic for mermaids. So, they should be good for humans, right? Teacher, remember, only the legs are edible. The part on top is poisonous and can't be eaten. It'll kill you."
After reading it, Yan Jue couldn't stop the corners of his mouth twitching: "Sea monster? The one up there?"
How indescribable it must be to be described by Noel as a "lump"? He didn't even dare to think about it.
"Our Nuoer is so good that he even persuaded his father to give you a gift." Zhou Taotao spoke well of Nuoer: "Yan Jue, don't you think we should praise him?"
Yan Jue heard the hidden meaning in Zhou Taotao's words and rubbed his brows. "The gifts were all carefully prepared by Noel. They are full of love. How could I blame Noel? Atlantis is an alien world, and the creatures here are a little different from ours. It's normal."
Just don't blame Noel. Zhou Taotao knew that Yan Jue, the slowest runner this time, was frightened by the sea monster's close proximity. After a few words of comfort, he tried to ask, "Then should I take you home? Or do you want to go see what the sea monster looks like? I just went to see it, and it's pink. It's a nice color and not scary."
Maybe after taking a look at it, you will change your mind and forget the previous shock.
Yan Jue decisively refused: "No, I want to go back."
So what if it was pink? Even if it was rainbow colored, he wouldn't want to take a second look.
Back at the Special Management Bureau, Pan Wencheng had already returned from the meeting. Seeing Yan Jue and Zhou Taotao coming in, he waved to them and called out, "Xiao Jue, Taotao, come here."
Zhou Taotao stepped forward and suggested to Pan Wencheng for the umpteenth time: "Director Pan, could you please stop calling me Taotao? Xiao Zhou will do too."
Pan Wencheng smiled and refused: "Isn't your name Zhou Taotao? Do you have any objection to me calling you by your name to show my affection?"
Zhou Taotao shook his head bitterly: "I dare not."
Pan Wencheng patted his dog's head and said, "Wait for me in the office. I have something to tell you. Xiaojue, come with me."
Yan Jue chuckled, glanced at Zhou Taotao, and went to his dormitory with Pan Wencheng.
"Young Master, Running Fish and Thousand Silk Grass have been officially put into use. The laboratory has been closely monitoring the soldiers who consume these two foods. The results are very encouraging. The physical fitness of all who have consumed them is slowly improving. We just have to control the speed and dosage, and there are no side effects at all! The strongest one has already surpassed the limits of human beings."
"Really?" Yan Jue said happily, "That's great!"
As a Chinese, how could he not be excited when he thought that the country would be protected by one or more super powerful teams in the future?
Pan Wencheng took Yan Jue's reaction in his eyes and continued, "The results are impressive, completely exceeding expectations. The higher-ups are also interested in promoting this method within the military to improve overall quality. Furthermore, the lab is conducting research day and night, hoping to extract key energy-rich substances from alien creatures and transform them into pharmaceuticals."
"Of course, it would be even better if we could find similar materials on Earth. Although the customer service said that he would follow you until your death, our China doesn't just have a short century. There's still a future."
Yan Jue nodded in agreement. After a moment's thought, he understood what Pan Wencheng meant. Without waiting for the other party to speak, he took the initiative to say, "If there is anything you need me to do, I will definitely do my best."
"It's not a big deal." Pan Wencheng smiled and said, "I just want you to save up some points so you can buy those potions in the mall in case of emergency."
Yan Jue is not stupid. After seeing those magical potions, he realized how important they were. During the period after the update, he has been working hard to play mini-games and accumulate points.
Now hearing Pan Wencheng's request, he wanted to confidently promise that he would earn enough points as soon as possible, but the game would not become easier because of his confidence, and his verbal promise was of no use.
Pan Wencheng also understood the characteristics of the game and said, "I know you have been working hard to earn points. I am not telling you this to make you play games day and night, but to tell you-"
"Where have the things you handed over out of trust in the country been used? What benefits have we gained from them? I want you to understand how important your act of handing over the games is to China."
"Not just now, but going forward, we will tell you the whereabouts of any items you obtain from the game. The nation appreciates your trust and will not let you down."
Yan Jue was stunned. His heart, which had been calm for a long time, showed a strange fluctuation after hearing these words.
In fact, Director Pan didn't need to tell him. No matter where those things were used, as long as the country was strong, he, as a Chinese, would be the ultimate beneficiary. It didn't matter whether he understood the process or not, but Pan Wencheng and others still told him.
Regardless of whether these words were because the game was too important, and in order to make him more devoted to China, Yan Jue felt genuine enthusiasm and great respect from them.
Yan Jue had a lot to say, but in the end he couldn't utter a word. He could only smile knowingly and said, "Hua Guo is my mother."
Pan Wencheng also smiled, patted Yan Jue's head, and said with satisfaction: "Good boy."
Being praised for doing what he was supposed to do, Yan Jue felt a little embarrassed. He told Wen Xuyang what he had heard today and tried to change the subject: "Director Pan, I was just impulsive at the time. Now that I think about it, there is no way to directly transfer the audio that Noel sent except by recording it."
If you want to record, you must play it first, but once it is played, someone will definitely be affected.
"It's okay." Pan Wencheng waved his hand. "It's just going to be a few hours. Send people to take turns. Just treat it as a holiday. Such a good weapon, keep a few extra copies."
Yan Jue: “…”
So, should those who are “on vacation” be happy or cry?
Pan Wencheng was not so entangled and turned to ask Yan Jue: "Xiao Jue, you haven't been to the mall since the update, right?"
Yan Jue nodded: "There are too many things in it, and there are people who specialize in recording them, so I don't have the energy to look through them."
"Look, we found some running fish and Thousand Silk Grass in there, each priced at ten points. The ones Noel sent over have proven to be quite useful, and we'll probably be in greater demand for them."
Pan Wencheng said slowly: "Then, we thought about whether we could make a deal directly with Noel."
