Chapter 356: Let’s Fight for Fun
Lin Jiu met Jiang Wan.
The commander who works in the command team.
But she was different from what I remembered. She had changed a lot and looked very haggard, but she was forcing herself to cheer up.
"I didn't expect to see you again." Jiang Wan looked at Lin Jiu and smiled. "I remember you. You joined the 23rd Logistics Team and the 1st Execution Team. Zhou Kai even helped you fill out the formal application for joining the team. Unfortunately..."
Jiang Wan didn't say anything else, and her smile became a little bitter.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I guess you have a lot of questions now."
Lin Jiu nodded.
"This is not the place to talk about this. Come with me."
Jiang Wan took Lin Jiu to the temporary command post.
The original company headquarters has been swallowed up by the restricted area. At present, the remaining forces of the company are all in a mobile state, because no one knows when the restricted area will spread to the new command center.
The building serving as the command post is a two-story building.
Not big, even a little run-down.
This place seems to be located near the suburbs, and is basically surrounded by unfinished buildings.
When I walked into the room, it was unsurprisingly simple, even to the point of being surprising.
However, after all, one must be prepared to retreat at any time, so Lin Jiu was not too surprised by such a situation.
"Before that, can you tell me how long it has been?" Lin Jiu asked.
Jiang Wan gave an answer that surprised Lin Jiu: "Today is exactly six months."
In just half a year, the world has become so broken?!
Lin Jiu was speechless for a moment. After a while, he asked, "The Lord of Disasters?"
Jiang Wan shook her head. "Our current theory is that this world is overwhelmed by the pollution and is beginning to collapse."
The pollution wave that Lin Jiu had experienced in the copy before was, in a sense, also a sign of the collapse of the world.
Lin Jiu was stunned.
If the world collapses, isn’t that the same as the world being completely destroyed?
No, you and the game are finished?
and....
“Is pollution too much for the world to handle?”
Although he asked this, Lin Jiu had a vague guess in his mind.
He remembered that in the previous hide-and-seek game, that 'Xilin' had said that the strangeness of this world was...
"Unlike other worlds, this world originally didn't have strange things." Jiang Wan said slowly, "Once upon a time, those who walked and lived on this land were ordinary humans and ordinary beasts."
But the Lord of Disasters has arrived.
The world has changed dramatically as a result.
Humans have become strange, and animals and even plants have been contaminated and turned into strange life forms.
This world is being forcibly transformed. There is a limit to the pollution it can tolerate, but no one knows where this limit is.
Today, various disasters have broken out on a large scale in this strange world, and restricted areas have spread wildly. Almost everyone believes that this world has reached its limit.
Jiang Wan smiled bitterly, explaining that they were now overwhelmed by the spread of the restricted area. Furthermore, with communications cut off, they had no idea what was happening in other areas, and they had completely lost contact with higher-ups.
But even so, they still retained a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
"...I guess I can't be of any help?"
Lin Jiu naturally did not feel any sadness. Everything here was data. If he followed the prompts... yes, everything was data, just simulating reality. In other words, the strange world came to life again?
But another voice in his mind told Lin Jiu that it couldn't be that simple.
"Help me...if you're willing..."
Lin Jiu nodded happily: "Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
Although it may be futile, the survivors are still doing their best to resist the spread of the restricted area.
According to Jiang Wan, two days ago, a small team set off for the security company headquarters.
It’s all for the ammunition resources within the headquarters.
This place is not far from the headquarters, and the pollution level in that area has been detected to have dropped a lot, so the command center agreed to the team's request.
In two days, he should be back no matter how slow he is.
Although the pollution levels there have not increased and are even decreasing, the lack of news makes it hard not to suspect that something has gone wrong.
Lin Jiu's timing of arrival was quite coincidental. Jiang Wan was just about to send a team to take a look.
"Let me go alone." Lin Jiu said.
Jiang Wan was stunned.
"this...."
"I'm sorry, I've been in a bad mood recently. If you let your men follow me, it might be more dangerous." Lin Jiu said some surprising words in a very calm tone.
"Is that so..." Jiang Wan compromised after a brief hesitation: "I understand, but before we set off, choose a few weapons."
Lin Jiu nodded.
He did need weapons.
Jiang Wan brought Lin Jiu to the current weapons and equipment depot.
It's very simple and there aren't that many weapons.
This is enough to prove the company's current situation, and it is no wonder that a team was sent back to the headquarters area.
Lin Jiu did not choose firearms, but chose cold weapons. Seeing this, Jiang Wan wanted to say something but stopped herself, but finally let Lin Jiu go.
It was boring to just stay there, so Lin Jiu was ready to set off after choosing his weapons.
Before that, Jiang Wan gave him a watch-like device that could be used for map navigation and communication, including real-time monitoring of changes in pollution levels, and of course, positioning functions.
After putting it on, Lin Jiu left with a long knife.
Jiang Wan watched his figure getting farther and farther away, and the gentle words "I wish you good luck" soon dissipated in the air.
Lin Jiu's figure gradually became unclear. Only then did Jiang Wan turn around and enter the command center.
After leaving the temporary command center, Lin Jiu walked aimlessly as before, occasionally looking down at the black watch on his wrist.
According to Jiang Wan, the previous team lost contact on the night of departure.
That is, when we arrived at the headquarters, we suddenly lost contact and the positioning became invalid.
Therefore, the command center speculated that something must have happened inside the headquarters, and for some reason, the current command center found it difficult to detect what went wrong.
The unknown is scary, especially in times like these.
However, Lin Jiu didn't care at all about what Jiang Wan was mumbling at the time. If one blow couldn't kill him, two blows would always do. If that didn't work, he would just keep on killing.
Lin Jiu no longer wanted to think too much, he just wanted to vent himself.
