Mingmei was already used to Guigui's silence; one pretended to be oblivious, and the other was too lazy to ask.
After a while, Mingmei suddenly laughed helplessly: "How come the players' stories have to involve me? What do you mean that selling crayfish lunch boxes is going against them?"
As she spoke, Mingmei raised her hand to look at the electronic lock on her wrist, and quietly added, "In the game, apart from necessary settings, players' physiques are all defaulted to A-level, but... I'm not a player."
Mingmei muttered to herself, clenched her fists, and with a snap, tore the electronic lock off, then stood up.
Gui Gui: [Host?!]
Is its host that powerful?
Gui Gui felt as if she had been deceived.
Ever since it became bound to Mingmei, it has often seen its host in a lazy state. Although she is sometimes very smart, that does not mean she is violent.
In addition, the elders around the host often say how pitiful, weak and cute the host is, so even the ghost couldn't help but show the host that the host was wearing a "pitiful, weak and cute" filter.
However, he now feels that this filter might shatter.
"Um?"
Hearing Gui Gui's startled scream, Ming Mei immediately responded, completely oblivious to the complex emotions swirling within Gui Gui.
What are you doing?
"Save yourself." Mingmei spoke very calmly. Standing in front of the door, she flashed behind it the moment she opened it and saw a laser beam shooting directly into the room.
Gui Gui: 【!!!】
“So…” Mingmei sighed, “If only these students had as much cunning as they had when dealing with the Zerg as they had when dealing with me.”
Mingmei rolled her eyes discreetly, and only left the doorway after confirming there were no backup plans.
[Host, where are we going?]
"Find a way to escape." Mingmei walked cautiously down the corridor, taking out a small crayfish lunchbox and eating it. "I don't believe there's only one bug on this starship, I have to run."
This was the only time Mingmei couldn't sit down and savor her boxed lunch. While eating, she asked Guigui, "Tell me honestly, is this starship still in service with the military? Did it escape the disaster back then?"
There are many starships of this type, but narrowing it down, this one should be out of service; it seems to have been reported missing.
"Oh, so that starship really doesn't exist in history."
After receiving the news, Mingmei headed towards the bottom level where the escape pods were located. She guessed that she was also hidden on the bottom level of the starship. On the first round, Mingmei didn't see a single person, not even an insect.
Mingmei estimated that their starship had been away from the Sigma military fortress for less than a day. The escape pods were naturally slower than the starship, but she could still make it back before the war started.
Mingmei thought that since it was a game, she wasn't afraid of death; what she really wanted was to witness it all with her own eyes.
What exactly happened at Sigma Military?
[Host, would you like to watch the live streams of the other two players on the starship?]
"Go ahead and do it. What if I take the escape pods but no one comes out to run with me?"
...
The bright and trusting Dayao naturally encountered Charlie, who looked "panicked".
"Run! There are Zerg below!"
Charlie ran towards her, looking somewhat disheveled and flustered.
"Zerg?"
Upon hearing about the Zerg, Da Yao couldn't sit still any longer. There really were Zerg on this starship!?
【Aaaaaaah! Lu Xiaoyao, run! He's a liar!】
【Aaaaaah, holy crap! Julian and Charlie, those two big bastards, look so much like Zerg, they even imitate NPCs!】
[Help! Lu Xiaoyao! Run!]
The comments section exploded when Charlie's face suddenly appeared in Lu Xiaoyao's shot.
Especially after Charlie and Julian's previous conversation, their viewers in the live stream had already confirmed that the two in front of them were not good people, but the legendary hidden Zerg!
"Yeah! Zerg, so many of them. I finally escaped, but there's no signal here. Let's go to the escape pods first..."
Before Charlie could even utter the interjection "ba," Da Yao fired a shot directly at the spot where he had slowed his pace, warning him to keep his distance.
"Why should I believe you?"
Da Yao's gaze darkened, and she naturally recognized Charlie as a player, so that's where he had been before.
Why don't you come up and meet with them to exchange information?
Meeting the other party's suspicious gaze, Charlie calmly raised his hand, but there was an urgency in his eyes as if he were being chased, and said, "I'm a logistics procurement staff member. I've been working behind those NPCs since I boarded the starship today, and that's when I found out that their application to enter the starport is for three days later."
“You should know that the journey from this starport takes no more than two days, right? That’s why I became suspicious of their actions and have been investigating this matter.”
Charlie explained half-jokingly, his eyes fixed on the laser gun in Da Yao's hand, and he subtly moved towards Da Yao.
Charlie's tone became urgent as he said, "I ate Miss Merchant's crayfish lunchbox. I suspected something was wrong, so I checked it out. Oh my god, all those NPCs in the logistics department are hidden Zerg!"
"Their early departure of their starships was to cut off supplies! And to clear the way for the Zerg army that would launch a surprise attack from behind. Once the Sigma military fortress is forced to close, they'll be able to tear a hole and head straight for Changping Starport! We need to hurry back and report this."
