Chapter 136 Standing Guard
From the audience's perspective, this was the seventh time Xu Lingqu entered this energy core point and slaughtered all the monsters inside.
Every time after she killed the monsters here, Skynet's mechanism program would automatically help her read the file and restore her to the state she had just gotten off the car, including her memory. The monsters in the pyramid were resurrected on the spot, and everything in the game except them was running normally.
"When did she realize she was forced to reload and kill these monsters so many times?" Professor Zhuang was stunned and adjusted his glasses. "We have a full view and can see that she is forced to reload and respawn outside again and again. How did she..."
Colonel Ren pointed to the sky. "The first thing she did when she entered the pyramid was to check the position of Xuanluo (the name of a star in the interstellar world) above her head. She must have checked the time before getting out of the car. She didn't notice it directly before because she killed so quickly, which didn't waste much time. From her perspective this time, she was able to notice it because the accumulation of time caused the position of Xuanluo above her head to deviate significantly from the time she saw in the car, which caught her attention."
This time after reloading the game, Xu Lingqu felt that she had done nothing but time had passed inexplicably.
"How can you realize that you are forced to reload the save file based on this alone?" Professor Zhuang was still confused.
"During the battle, because they had fought several battles before, the mysterious creatures inside were adjusting their positions, trying to predict Xu Lingqu's movements. This made Xu Lingqu wonder why these monsters could predict her actions if they were encountering them for the first time. We can also see that the seventh time she entered the pyramid was her slowest to kill, because the monsters inside had basically adjusted and predicted their movements," Colonel Ren explained. "She actually came with three guns and a knife, but once she entered the pyramid, she only had one gun and one knife. This means that Skynet can control the items on her body, and naturally her behavior."
"Indeed, with these clues, we can indeed deduce the possibility of forced reloading. However, if someone else had this level of sharpness and ability to think calmly, they would completely..." Professor Zhuang was still a little surprised.
"Yes, but the person who came wasn't an ordinary person. It was Xu Lingqu."
In Xu Lingqu's seven playthroughs, the fourth time he encountered Set and Horus, he shot directly at the hourglass, killing them instantly upon appearance. That's why they later tried to block Xu Lingqu's bullets. The first time, Xu Lingqu was too quick, walking through the initial passage and past all the mummies before swooping down, missing the target. And the third time, the couatl retreated into a corner and attempted to ambush Xu Lingqu, but Xu Lingqu simply grabbed a grappling hook, hooked it mid-air, and fled. While still in mid-air, he managed to blind the couatl's eyes as it chased him. That's why it chose to fly in the air, using its dangling body to block the passage's entrance.
The designers of Skynet have given these monsters a bit of intelligence, with the intention of allowing them to adjust their attack methods when the players are forced to reload the game, so that they can become stronger each time.
In a sense, the designer's goal was achieved. They successfully delayed Xu Lingqu for eight more minutes in the seventh attempt.
Xu Lingqu in Saitun now held a knife to the Pharaoh's neck: "How can I end this time loop?"
The Pharaoh had been beaten by her and was lying on the ground with a bruised face and no hope in life. He said, "Go... open the coffin."
"I'll chop off your hands and open the coffin." Xu Lingqu said as he was about to start chopping off his hands.
Pharaoh immediately retracted his hands and cried out, "Kill me, kill me."
This was the seventh time he had met this devilish woman.
Anyone who breaks in will die from festering all over their body if they touch the coffin.
When he met Xu Lingqu for the first time, Pharaoh was a little surprised that his companions in front of him died so quickly, but he still felt that ordinary humans were not to be feared, so he maintained his mysterious and noble identity and appeared slowly. After staring at Xu Lingqu for more than ten seconds and thinking that he had given Xu Lingqu enough oppression, he was shot in the head by Xu Lingqu.
This is what happens when you don't speak in front of her.
When he met Xu Lingqu for the second time, Pharaoh realized that he could not come out so slowly to talk to her. He sped up, and then in an extremely arrogant tone asked the "untouchables" who broke in to help him move the coffin up, and then shot him in the head again.
This is the result of pretending in front of her.
The third time, Pharaoh felt that his mistake was in his tone. The last order didn't work, so this time he used threats. It was also this time that he realized that threatening Xu Lingqu would not end well, because this time he was not shot in the head, but Xu Lingqu directly cut his throat.
The fourth time, Pharaoh truly awakened. Xu Lingqu came for that energy core, so he used it to seduce her! He began to lie, claiming the energy core was inside the coffin. In return, Xu Lingqu sneered and pressed him against the coffin, where he died of festering wounds.
The fifth and sixth times, Pharaoh tried to persuade with his eloquent tongue, and also tried to disguise himself as an NPC who gave clues in a concise manner, but in the end, only death was waiting for him.
The seventh time, destroy it, he is tired.
"Actually, you only need to kill us seven times to succeed." Pharaoh was really tired and told the truth. "Can I ask you a question? Why will you never touch that coffin no matter what?"
"Because my subconscious mind will warn me every time that there is danger, and your acting skills are a bit poor." After Xu Lingqu finished speaking, he gave the Pharaoh a quick death according to what he said.
At this moment, the head of Skynet's game planning department was in his office, hands on his hips, looking up at the sky and laughing: "Hasn't someone finally broken my boss point?"
She was the designer of this boss point. She had received many complaints because her design was too abnormal. In a fit of anger, she directly threw this boss point to the Skynet Saitu department.
Ordinary people can’t crack it, but military cadets can definitely crack it, right?
The Skynet map just stuffed this boss point into the desert map. It was originally expected to take 7-8 teams to break through, but it was eventually cleared by Xu Lingqu alone.
The deputy minister smiled happily: "Now it seems that this is not my problem, this is a human problem!"
[It turns out it's not a bug; you have to kill them seven times to succeed. My friend and I were using cheats, but we got swallowed by Quetzalcoatl on the third try. We all thought this boss point was insane because it kept forcing us to reload... He and I couldn't beat it even with cheats. Damn, I feel humiliated by Xu Lingqu.]
Can anyone compile the video of Xu Lingqu killing the Pharaoh seven times into a collection? I actually found it kind of funny. [Desperate Pharaoh]
[I'm usually afraid of these monsters, but today I watched Xu Lingqu play seven times and I was fascinated. I wonder if Lingqu baby will consider becoming a live streamer of holographic horror games in the future.]
Does anyone care about Seabuckthorn and Du'e who were taken to the westernmost part?
[kkk I'm watching them on split screen. I think Moye's students know their commander very well. I see that whenever Seabuckthorn and Du'e want to give up, they turn around and harass and fire a few shots. Especially Shen Shouli's team, they just roam among Seabuckthorn's students. It's so angry that Guan Chuanjun Limu Yi Pengyue Jin Fang Taibai chased them away again.]
…….
The memories of the seven kills all came back to his mind at once. Xu Lingqu was dazed for two seconds, but quickly stood up again and began to walk into the pyramid passage for the eighth time.
This time the mummy in the passage disappeared, and walked all the way to the position where the feathered serpent was. When Xu Lingqu raised his eyes, he saw the mummy, feathered serpent, Horus, Set and the pharaoh standing in a row, each one of them wanted to prostrate themselves to show their harmlessness. The pharaoh was in the front, and in front of him was a round sphere emitting blue light and electromagnetic.
This is the energy core.
"If you take it, it will show that you have seized the energy core." Pharaoh said sincerely, with a hint of flattery, "Please."
"What if I still don't want to take it?" Xu Lingqu turned the knife in his hand.
The scene changed, and she came to the Pharaoh's palace and sat on the throne, as if she had become the real boss of the pyramid. The energy core was placed next to her, ready to be taken away at any time, and several monsters returned to their posts.
They could have gone off work, but Xu Lingqu asked them to return to their positions and stand guard.
