Si Lan lowered her eyes to look at the axe, and raised her brows rarely.
"Did you make this yourself?" she asked.
Fan Wenqing nodded. "Yes, this game doesn't provide any ready-made tools, so I have to make it myself."
"We've played a lot of infrastructure games before and made tools. Don't worry, this axe is durable. You can use it with confidence, sister!"
Si Lan raised her eyes again, her gaze seemed to penetrate the heart of the person opposite her: "Why give it to me?"
Fan Wenqing couldn't quite pinpoint the attraction they felt to the high-level players. She shrugged and replied, "I think in the current environment, it's not very efficient for everyone to work independently. So, we want to split up and... maybe we need your help."
Si Lan: "What power?"
"Can you hunt?"
"You don't know how?"
Fan Wenqing nodded: "Of course we will, but this is our weak area."
They are Buddhist players who enjoy farming and construction, and their focus in the game is also here. When faced with prey, they either use props or simply ignore this part and wait until the conditions are right.
The game is in hell mode now, and there are so many players. If they wait until it develops before hunting, they may not even get any bones.
So they need to do both.
And Si Lan, who was able to knock down a male player with one hand just now, is undoubtedly the best helper for them to catch both hands.
Si Lan understood their thoughts immediately, looked at their resources, and then looked at the stone axes they made.
Finally, she looked at Tao Zhenzhen and said, "You should learn how to make tools from them in the future."
Tao Zhenzhen, who was used to being entrusted with important tasks, said: "..."
Fan Wenqing: "Let such a young child make tools?"
Si Lan: "She definitely can't do the final fixed work, but she can help with preparing materials and polishing tools. Once she becomes proficient, she can basically do the whole process."
Fan Wenqing: "So strict?"
Si Lan had no sympathy in her heart: "She has no relatives or friends here, and she doesn't know when this game will end or what the consequences will be if she dies halfway. If I just blindly protect and indulge her, what will she do when I'm not around and there's no one to help her?"
"Would you be willing to take a strange child who has no relationship with you with you?"
"Even if you're willing, will others be willing? Even if everyone is willing, won't she be left alone someday and encounter players with ill intentions?"
"So, no one can give her protection, she herself is her best protection."
When Fan Wenqing heard this, she nodded in understanding: Indeed.
Then he was surprised again: "So she is not your child, nor your relative?"
Si Lan: "Neither relative nor friend."
Tao Zhenzhen: "As I said, my sister is a salesperson, and I am a customer." A customer with no status at all.
Fan Wenqing raised her eyebrows: "I see."
But there was nothing surprising about this. She was very responsible for raising this child in such an environment. She waved at Tao Zhenzhen and said, "Then your sister is right. It's time for you to grow up. Come on, we will teach you."
Tao Zhenzhen walked over resignedly, while Si Lan picked up the stone axe, stood up and turned to leave.
"Huh? Where is my sister going?" Tao Zhenzhen asked in surprise.
Si Lan: "Cut down trees."
Fan Wenqing: "...You're leaving the child here? Aren't you worried?" Are you going to abandon the child and run away?!
Si Lan pointed to the side: "The police are over there. The child is missing, and I can find you in a minute."
Fan Wenqing: “…”
Feel the murderous intent.
She quickly promised to take good care of the child, and then watched eagerly as Si Lan took the stone axe and walked to the small woods in the east in the blink of an eye.
Fan Wenqing: "She walked so fast..."
I remember Tao Zhenzhen, who was walking at a moderate speed when we were together, said: Am I a burden?
Finally, she wisely withdrew her gaze and greeted the new sisters in front of her: "Then, sister, come and teach me."
Fan Wenqing and her friends sat opposite her as she said and began to teach her how to select materials, how to grind stones, and how to make tools.
At the same time.
T country.
Four hours have passed since the special task force sent the signal.
Everyone in the group keeps a close eye on the movements of the gamers.
After Wang Teng finished reporting to the highest authority, he immediately returned to ask Xiao Wu and the others, "How is it going? Is there any progress? Did anyone receive the signal and respond?"
Xiao Wu looked up from the surveillance camera with surprise. "Ah, the results are beyond our expectations! The target players quickly reacted and organized, and the other players also actively cooperated. Everyone has already started to act in different areas!
Wang Teng immediately took the external monitor and took a look.
Sure enough, the areas where players from Country T are concentrated show obvious zoning.
Holes, wood, and occupation markers began to appear on the ground. Areas with concentrated resources also showed signs of activity, with players starting to search for resources and even cooperating with each other.
Wang Teng finally felt relieved.
"That's good, that's good."
"It's good that you are willing to cooperate, so that we can have more time and energy to focus on rescue activities."
Xiaowu: "That's right, now we can think about the next step."
Wang Teng asked again: "Is the signal code stable?"
"Stable for now. Perhaps we could try to send out the next batch of signals?"
Wang Teng thought for a moment, but shook his head: "Not yet."
"The code we've invested in is already very long and complex, and it will take time for everyone to fully digest it."
"Furthermore, if we launch it again, we can't be sure whether it will attract attention. We need to be fully prepared before making further attempts."
Having said that, he changed his mind and reminded Xiaowu: "When you monitor the progress, you should also pay attention to the details in the game."
"We can send signals to everyone, and then everyone can send us feedback, help, reminders, and other information based on their needs."
Xiao Wu nodded quickly: "I understand."
Then he asked, "What specific information should we release next? We can make preparations first."
Wang Teng: "I previously asked you to publicly solicit game suggestions from ordinary players. How was the result?"
Xiaowu: "We've created a public forum dedicated to collecting strategy guides, and, without causing panic, we're soliciting suggestions from players through various channels, including news."
"Players have learned about this and have enthusiastically provided various strategy guides. However, there is so much information that it will take some time for us to sort through it."
"Then the next information we'll release will be the guides you've selected. I require these guides to be as concise, simple, and easy to understand as possible, because I also want friends who receive the signal in-game to copy the guides and distribute them to all players. Ideally, the guides should be easy enough for a child to read."
Xiaowu: "Got it!"
Wang Teng waved his hand: "Go and get busy."
Xiaowu was about to leave, but then thought of something and turned back. "Team Leader, don't we need to gather relevant authority figures to join the team and assist in the rescue? Then, can I invite my two teachers to come and help?"
"Your teacher?"
"Well, they're all teachers who have guided and inspired me. One is a pioneer in advanced electronics technology and a former senior researcher in the electronics research community. He once participated in a human chip research project, but later withdrew from the project to focus on studying the human body and electronic stimulation."
"This person...you are referring to Professor Pei, the former professor at the Research Institute headquarters, right?"
Xiao Wu: "Yes. Professor Pei is young and promising. He has created many miracles in the industry since leaving the research institute. I think we are worthy of asking for his advice."
Wang Teng: "Sure. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten about him. So, what about the other teacher?"
Xiaowu: "This... well, this teacher is a little special."
"Why is it special?"
"I haven't seen her."
"Um?"
Xiao Wu blushed as she explained, "Because she's a great person I met online. Well, I can't say what she's good at, but no matter what I ask her, she can always solve my problem perfectly. She's quite versatile."
"But she's unwilling to reveal her real information. I only know her nickname, and I suspect it's not her real name..."
"Then how can you be sure she is reliable?"
"Teacher San is a very good person! He's absolutely decent! I promise!"
"What's your guarantee?"
Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment before replying awkwardly, "I really can't guarantee anything with concrete evidence...but my intuition tells me that Teacher San is definitely worth asking for advice!"
Wang Teng’s face changed: Intuition?
But after consideration: Xiaowu is a senior technician in their game security department. Although he is still young, he is absolutely first-class in terms of reliability and loyalty.
He is very capable and professional. Logically speaking, he would not easily speak about things that are uncertain or unguaranteed.
but……
"Well, since you and her are only in touch online, you should keep it that way for now."
"Our incident is very confidential, but it's not confidential... Now the whole country knows about it. Some information can be found by the public whether you disclose it or not."
"So within a safe and reliable environment, you can appropriately disclose some of your current situation, consult her, and see how she responds."
"If she can truly provide a practical and effective action plan, we will warmly welcome her if you invite her again."
Xiao Wu nodded: "Alright, then I'll contact her?"
Wang Teng: "Go ahead. Report the progress to me promptly, and do your best to find out her true identity so we can have a clearer picture."
"good."
Xiaowu immediately sent an email to his "Teacher San" with respectful words:
"Dear Teacher San, hello!..."
After sending the email, he saw that it was successfully delivered and focused on his work.
After finishing the work, I saw that there was no movement in my mailbox. I was stunned and went to the industry forum where she usually visited to check her personal account.
But I found that Teacher San's login time was stuck at 48 hours ago...
