Xiao Jin ignored the commotion around him.
The player density was too high, and they fell from the sky like dumplings being dropped into a pot. All sorts of strange flying objects lit up, and cries and curses rose and fell. This place would soon become the center of a chaotic vortex.
Without any hesitation, Xiao Jin's ice crystal wings vibrated violently again, transforming into a streak of ice-blue light. He flew rapidly towards the distant towers, instantly leaving the noise and chaos behind him far behind.
While flying at high speed, she continued to process the massive amount of mission information she had just received from the survival game system.
Xiao Jin read ten lines at a glance, and the truth was finally revealed to the players in a cruel way.
According to the above introduction, the inventor of this cruel survival game is not a god or a demon, but an extraterrestrial civilization from a higher dimension!
They consider themselves an advanced civilization and view Earth as a vast testing ground and selection pool.
The so-called "dungeons" are nothing more than a brutal elimination tournament they set up. Only the strongest, luckiest, and most "valuable" players are qualified to obtain the "ticket" to the interstellar world.
The "Ark Key," which the main quest requires, is the ticket to reach interstellar civilizations.
As for the "spark"... the information remains vague.
[Mission Background: In the year 4706 of the Interstellar Calendar, interstellar civilizations are highly advanced, intergalactic migration is common, and new planets and civilizations are constantly being discovered and observed.]
However, due to a certain degree of "limited resources" and arrogant elitism, some high-ranking interstellar officials believed that it was necessary to "select" lower-level civilizations. Survival of the fittest was the way, and the game of survival of the fittest was born.
It can not only screen "qualified citizens", but also use the huge negative emotions such as fear, despair and anger generated during its operation to research and invent a new type of energy that is efficient, environmentally friendly and cheap - "emotion fuel"!
However, this extremely cruel act was opposed and banned by the mainstream forces of the Interstellar Council only fifty years later.
However, reactionary organizations still covet the enormous profits brought by "emotional fuel." They secretly discovered a previously undiscovered planet and secretly restarted the survival game system!
It's quite clear now that this primitive civilization planet, which hasn't been discovered by interstellar space or listed as protected, should be Blue Star.
As for the abandoned planet where the player is currently located, it is most likely an outpost research institute established by these reactionary organizations near Earth.
There should be hidden spaceships leading to interstellar space here, as well as factories where they secretly produce "emotional fuel".
But at the same time, Xiao Jin also thought of another problem.
That is, once these reactionary organizations discover that their illegal activities have been exposed by the players, they will definitely kill to silence them in order to avoid being court-martialed!
“So that’s how it is…” A cold glint flashed in Xiao Jin’s eyes, and all the clues instantly connected.
The root of all suffering lies in the greed and cruelty of advanced civilizations! The so-called survival game is nothing more than an illegal and brutal plunder of energy and selection of people.
The mission is now clear: find the "Ark Key," activate the only spaceship, return to the interstellar world, and expose everything that happened here to the interstellar surveillance organization.
At that time, there will naturally be forces to settle accounts with these executioners!
With the objective clear, that magnificent yet sinister steel jungle in the distance must be the core of the mission—the outpost research institute!
Xiao Jin accelerated again, his ice wings slicing through the deathly silence of the air.
However, after flying at full speed for about half an hour, she suddenly lowered her altitude, concealed the brilliance of her wings, and silently landed behind a huge rock.
It can no longer fly.
Patrol posts have already appeared ahead.
Upon closer inspection, those are not human soldiers, but rather sleek, mechanical androids with a cold design.
They wore dark armor with a cyberpunk style, their metal shells gleaming with a cold, matte finish, and their eyes were crimson optical lenses that constantly scanned their surroundings.
They held streamlined energy weapons that Xiao Jin had never seen before. The muzzles of the guns faintly emitted a dangerous light, exuding a strong sense of technology. They were completely out of place on this ruined planet, yet they carried a deadly sense of oppression.
Xiao Jin held his breath, like a lurking cheetah, carefully observing their patrol routes and frequency. His supernatural abilities were quietly activated, and although his long sword was not yet drawn, his killing intent had already begun to gather.
In situations like this, a sneak attack is the best option.
However, just as she had calculated the perfect moment and was about to launch her attack—
"Beep-beep-beep!!!"
A piercing alarm suddenly blared from another direction in the distance, shattering the deathly silence of the wasteland!
The crimson optical mirrors guarded by the androids flashed simultaneously, clearly indicating that they had received an emergency warning.
"*&%￥#!" The lead android emitted a series of rapid electronic sounds, mechanical sounds that Xiao Jin could not recognize.
Immediately afterwards, all guards went on high alert, their energy weapons were raised instantly, and their scanning range was expanded!
"Idiot!" Xiao Jin cursed inwardly.
It must have been players from other areas who accidentally exposed themselves, alerting the enemy!
The opportunity has been missed; we can't wait any longer!
In the split second that these android guards were drawn by the distant alarm and momentarily stunned—
"call out!"
Xiao Jin made a move!
Her figure was like a ghost, bursting out from her hiding place. Her icy wings provided an instant burst of acceleration, and the [Wrathful Flame] longsword in her hand was drawn, leaving a trail of tragic and beautiful arcs of light!
"Snap!"
A perfectly precise strike! The metal head of the outermost android guard was instantly severed, sparks flying from its neck, and the machine convulsed as it collapsed.
Having landed a successful blow, Xiao Jin didn't pause. He turned his blade and slashed straight at the energy core of the second guard!
But just as the blade was about to cut in, an inconspicuous device on the android's chest suddenly burst into a blinding blue light!
"Warning! Intrusion detected! Coordinates (&*%#)!" A sharp electronic alarm sounded from within it!
"It even has a built-in alarm!" Xiao Jin's pupils shrank; he had miscalculated!
Their whereabouts have been completely exposed!
"kill!"
Without any hesitation, Xiao Jin's eyes sharpened, and his attack instantly became incredibly ferocious. Since the sneak attack had failed, he would launch a full-scale assault!
The Shattered Shadow Blade hummed, carrying a sharp blade light that could tear everything apart. It no longer pursued silent assassination, but transformed into a raging thunder!
"Boom! Sizzle—!"
An android with its back to Xiao Jin was cleaved in two by Xiao Jin's violent blade energy, its parts flying everywhere!
This sudden situation was clearly somewhat unexpected for these androids.
