Chapter 168: One Hundred and Sixty-Six "Are you still cold?"
The fantasy world and bold and dreamy colors make the entire city look like a magnificent oil painting.
On a ring of city walls, the somewhat lazy guards were talking to each other.
"...Do you think we can really hold on? I've been feeling so weak lately and have overused my abilities. Am I... dying soon?" The young man in revolutionary army uniform was holding a piece of grass in his mouth with a relaxed posture.
"Why are you in such a hurry? We are in the safest ring of the city wall. There are people outside risking their lives to save the situation. Even if the sky collapses, there are tall people to hold it up." Another person continued.
"I don't understand." The young man of the Revolutionary Army scratched his head. "There is no need for us to fight so hard against the monsters and puppet soldiers that are coming. Can't those powerful people just help me put up a protective shield? Why should we soldiers risk our lives?"
"It's good to be capable. Anyway, there are weak people leading the way, so you don't have to charge into battle yourself." The black-haired young man said, "Since ancient times, those in power have always been like this. They even hope that we will devote everything to them and be loyal to them until the last moment."
"Hmph, even if this world is really invaded by monsters and we are really wiped out by those puppet troops, those adults can easily survive." The young man at the beginning said: "Hey, what do you think, Bell?"
Next to them stood a man who was also a revolutionary soldier, but he was cowering in a timid posture. He seemed very nervous, his hand tightly grasping a worn spear. When he was suddenly questioned, his body trembled violently.
"Oh, yes." Bell nodded quickly. Facing the two NPCs, his mind was not on this conversation.
His original name was Gaoang, and he was just an ordinary otaku student. After seeing such a hellish apocalyptic world in the first world, he was so scared that he dared not go out again. It was only after hearing that the fifth world was a legendary other world that he resolutely became a player with his passion for the second dimension.
However, his previous strength was emptied, and during the second to fourth worlds, he was addicted to forums, reading various comics and novels, and did not prepare anything for himself. When he was assigned to the revolutionary army at the beginning of the fifth world, he was terrified for a while - after all, his current strength was not much different from that of ordinary people.
But fortunately, as a soldier defending the city, he did not have to leave the city or fight with the regular army. He just had to stand here. Although the contribution points he obtained were not much, at least he had no worries about his life, which made him feel at ease for a long time.
In this case, if there is no threat to one's life, becoming a player in the next round doesn't seem to be a bad idea... ?
Gaoang's daily entertainment is to watch what people are talking about in the world channel. Although he doesn't dare to go to other places to look for opportunities, there are many talented people chatting in this channel and they speak nicely. He likes it here very much.
[Marz: It’s the seventh day, the seventh day… I’m still moving things in the square.]
[Wo Zhengyang: I am an old porter. Why do I feel that the dungeon in this world is so simple that it leaves me speechless...]
【Charles: Indeed, it doesn’t feel that hellish. 】
[He Le: Have you heard about the recent developments? I was thinking that a bunch of people went to some forest to siege the top player. What's going on now?]
[Mara: ...Do you still have doubts about this question? Just look at the rankings and you will know that Su Mingan's camp has all gone to the Revolutionary Army.]
【Hu Zhen: Hu? Revolutionary Army? Why would you choose to join the revolutionary army instead of taking a high position in the army?】
[He Yan: So this is probably the difference between us and the No. 1 player. They can run around easily, but I am still struggling in the Revolutionary Army...]
[Zhai Hui: Damn, I just ran to the regular army and changed camp, and now I have to run away again...]
[Wilder: Guys, stop chasing after the top player. He won't even bother with you.]
[Dobbin: That may not be the case. What if he is like Lu Shu in the first world? He will always have everything.]
【……】
Gao Gao was paying attention to the chat in the channel, feeling the breeze from the legendary other world, when he suddenly heard a voice calling from behind.
"—Hey. You three!"
He immediately turned around and saw a squad leader walking up the city wall.
"Someone is looking for you." The team leader waved at them: "Follow me."
...is it a chance?
Gao Gao was both excited and scared. As a stay-at-home guy who didn't even like to go out on Zhai Xing, he would try to hide when he encountered trouble.
But with the benefits in front of him, he is still willing to give it a try without any risk.
"Hurry up." The team leader led the three people towards the city gate.
An NPC asked in surprise: "Captain, we still have to defend the city, and it's not time to change groups yet, why is it..."
"Don't ask any more questions." The team leader raised his eyebrows, looked at the people around him who were all far away, and whispered in his ear:
"…It was the Second Commander's intention."
"Second Commander?" The NPC looked serious and said no more.
Gao Gao suddenly felt something was wrong.
The city he was guarding was called Goka City, which was one of the major bases of the revolutionary army. It was not far from the central base of the regular army and close to the forest. It was a city with a relatively dangerous geographical location. It was also a similar line of defense for the revolutionary army against the regular army. It was considered a big city and could not be easily lost.
If the first player wants to come into contact with the revolutionary army, this city is the nearest one.
Then the second commander suddenly appeared in this city...
Gao Gao felt a growing sense of uneasiness in his heart. Was he going to meet the legendary number one player?
