Chen Nian had dinner with Shafley in the ward. Thinking that there would be no other activities afterwards, he went to the private bathroom to wash up.
This way, after playing the game, he can go straight to sleep.
Chen Nian had already told the palace that he would stay in the hospital tonight, and another bed was pushed into the large ward for Chen Nian to rest at night.
Someone had already brought two neural adapters. Chen Nian came out of the bathroom wiping his face and saw Shafulai adjusting the parameters of the neural adapters.
The ends of his hair were still a little wet, and he was about to lie down on the bed next to him.
"Blow dry your hair first." Shafley said without raising his head. He obviously didn't even look at her, but he grasped Chen Nian's condition clearly.
"Why are you the same as your mother?" Chen Nian pouted, but still used a hair dryer to dry her hair.
"How are you going to wash?" Chen Nian asked. The fracture shouldn't be serious, but Shafley had a cast on his leg, so he didn't know the specific situation.
He also had an injury on his shoulder and couldn't get wet, so taking a bath was out of the question.
"I'll just do it in a little while." Shafulai was about to stand up by holding onto the edge of the bed. Seeing this, Chen Nian hurried forward, supported his back with his hands, and helped Shafulai sit up.
Perhaps it was because of the injury on his shoulder that caused Shafulai to take a deep breath. Chen Nian suddenly became nervous. "Is it really okay? Otherwise, I'll bring a basin of water to you so you can wash it."
Shafulai remained calm, as this minor injury was nothing to him. But now that Chen Nian was right in front of him, perhaps he should take the opportunity to gain some small benefits.
For example, Omega's sympathy.
Shafley was very discreet: "It's okay, I'm not as fragile as you think, I just need to go to the toilet."
Upon hearing this, Chen Nian said no more. He supported Shafulai and got down carefully. Alpha's injured right leg was hanging in the air, and part of his body weight was pressed on Chen Nian, moving inch by inch to the bathroom.
There was a handrail on the wall of the bathroom. When Shafulai wanted to go to the toilet, Chen Nian consciously went out and closed the door for him.
After a while he heard the sound of water.
Chen Nian was amazed at Shaflay's bladder capacity. He must have been holding it in for a long time. Why didn't he bring it up before?
Nearly a minute later, hearing that Shaflay should have finished peeing, Chen Nian pushed the door open again, helped the disabled Alpha to the sink, and helped him wash his face and brush his teeth.
Chen Nian squeezed toothpaste on Shafulai and put the cup of water aside. He was originally a healthy person, but now only one leg and one hand can be used. It's a bit pitiful.
The macho man washing his face turned into a little cat washing his face. Shafulai used one hand to scoop up water and wipe his face, scoop up water and wipe his face. Chen Nian leaned lazily aside, with his arms folded across his chest, admiring this strange sight with interest.
It’s also quite cute.
After Shafulai finished washing, Chen Nian took the towel and handed it to him.
Shafla wiped it with one hand again.
What should have taken only five minutes to complete took Shafulai a quarter of an hour before he slowly moved back to the bed with the help of Chen Nian.
Chen Nian was afraid that his leg in a cast would swell if he lay down all the time, so he folded up a small blanket and placed it under his heel, allowing his entire right leg to tilt slightly.
As he was packing, he heard a knock on the door.
Chen Nian turned around and saw the emperor pushing the door open.
The young man's body froze at this moment. Although it was not the first time he met the emperor face to face, Chen Nian was still very scared. After all, he was a fake prince's consort, and he was afraid that the emperor would suddenly recognize him someday.
By then, Chen Ci, who is on his journey, will be caught and brought back. What fate will he face?
Shafla noticed something and gently touched his hand. The warmth of the Alpha came over him, and it seemed to carry an unspeakable power, which helped Chen Nian calm down quickly.
Yes, he also has Shaflay as his comrade-in-arms.
"Your Majesty." Chen Nian said respectfully. The emperor was the target of the assassin, but was rescued by Shafulai. He had apparently just finished dealing with a series of things and finally had time to come and visit his son.
"Chen Ci." The emperor nodded. "Are you here to accompany Shafla?"
"Well, I'll stay here tonight. His hands and feet are not very convenient right now, so he needs to stay with him."
"Thank you for your hard work." The emperor thought the young man was just here to visit, but he didn't expect him to stay and accompany her. He was a little surprised, but it was obvious that he was very satisfied with the warming relationship between them.
After asking Chen Nian, the emperor looked at Shafulai again. At the critical moment, his most trusted eldest son stepped forward and stood in front of him. However, no one expected that Shafulai would fall off the stairs afterwards.
"The assassin has been caught, and we are still investigating the mastermind behind him. How do you feel about that?"
Shafley smiled bitterly: "It's not a big deal. The shoulder will be healed in three or four days. But the leg may need to rest for a while."
The emperor nodded: "Just take a good rest, you have worked hard during this period."
The father and son chatted for a while longer. Chen Nian stayed aside quietly without saying a word. Then he thought that he should be considered the "future daughter-in-law" after all, so he should be more assertive.
Although the emperor may know the truth and have made secret arrangements that caused him to be exiled, don't be afraid.
The emperor didn't stay long. When he saw the two neural adapters on the bed, he knew what entertainment activities Shafulai and Chen Nian were going to have that night. Before leaving, he said, "Go to bed early and don't stay up too late."
Shaflay agreed, and Chen Nian stood up and walked the emperor to the door.
Half a minute later, he returned to the ward and quickly closed the door.
"Come on, come on line quickly."
Chen Nian put a neural adapter on Shaflay, then he quickly lay down on another bed next to him and entered the game.
After a brief darkness, the view in front of him became bright again, and a tall figure with long platinum-gold hair appeared beside Chen Nian, but now Chen Nian had to lower his head to look at him.
The battle is still in the initial stalemate stage. Almost all players from all servers have flocked to this area to participate in the crusade against the Sea Emperor Sheila. However, human wave tactics do not have an advantage when facing primitive creatures. No matter how many players there are, they cannot match the number of various primitive creatures.
Military debris was everywhere, and the new bases of two guilds were destroyed. Shafulai saw the tragic scene in front of him, and although he was prepared, he was still a little shocked.
Normally, the Sea King would not cause such great damage to the ground.
A flying fish flew through the air in a parabola and landed not far from them. It then exploded, and a heat wave rushed over. The two men subconsciously raised their hands to protect their heads and faces.
Chen Nian clearly heard Shaflay quickly speak something in a language he didn't understand, but Chen Nian caught a sound of "Sukabulie" in it.
This was a suicide attack.
Under Sheila's command, the primitive creatures displayed an amazing tactical system.
Compared to players belonging to different guilds, they are a complete army with a strong will.
Chen Nian: "I tested it with Bai Gei Yingtao this afternoon. It turns out that Shira has the same characteristics as in real life. Her singing can interfere with people's minds and electronic devices, making most high-tech weapons useless."
Shafla nodded. Twenty years ago, Marshal Chen Weiyuan encountered a trap set by Poseidon Sheila in reality, but he did not confront her head-on, so he had no way of knowing more clues about Sheila's weaknesses. In the world of games, there is no such thing as mental power.
Flying fish kept jumping out of the water. Some of them were hit from the air, while others successfully landed and destroyed buildings and equipment.
Many primitive creatures have clear division of labor. They are swept up by the rising sea water and fearlessly use their corpses to pave the way for their companions behind them. Players are either poisoned or injured. Even if they drink energy drinks frantically, they cannot save their rapidly decreasing health bars and eventually fall to the ground.
Under the current circumstances, rashly joining the war would be a waste of life.
Less than two minutes after Shafulai came online, Baige Cherry appeared beside them.
The president was covered in blood. He was frantically pouring supplements into his mouth to stop the bleeding. As soon as he saw Shafley, he started complaining:
"Hey, Lao Beng, you're finally here. You have no idea what we've been through this afternoon! We've tried every method we could think of, but we couldn't even get close to it, and a lot of our weapons were destroyed."
Schafflet noticed the changes in the terrain and asked, "Is the sea level rising?"
Bai Gei Yingtao nodded, "Yes, I really don't know what tricks it has played. The sea level is actually rising. This sea king is determined to take back the territory. It even specifically chooses to attack the gathering places. Look, many of the guilds' newly built bases have been destroyed."
"This thing starts to sing every once in a while. As long as it opens its mouth, all the equipment will collectively malfunction. It's simply a money-eating beast. I hope you don't faint when you see the financial statements at the end of this month."
Shafley: "Have you tried the sonar?"
"Oh, stop talking. The boat was just summoned and it disturbed us with its sound. The sound waves can't be emitted at all."
As Baige Yingtao was talking, she heard the singing again.
He uttered a particularly harsh word and immediately covered his ears with his hands.
But the sound was so penetrating that it seemed to penetrate the scalp and skull directly into the brain. Although it was a song with beautiful melody and moving timbre, it could only bring extreme pain.
All players were disturbed for a while, but the battle was not forced to stop because for the primitive creatures, the singing was a clarion call to attack.
The mentally confused players suddenly became sitting ducks, and for a moment both the frontline battlefield and the respawn point were bustling with activity.
Bai Gei Yingtao groaned in pain, Chen Nian and Shafulai also tried their best to cover their ears. Compared to others, their reactions were the smallest, and even after the initial wave, they slowly got used to the discomfort.
Chen Nian and Shafulai looked at each other and had vague guesses in their hearts.
Is the interference of singing to players related to some hidden attribute?
There is no such thing as mental power in the Electric Fantasy Kingdom, but the degree of use of the neural adapter is related to mental power, just like Shafulai was chosen because of his strong mental power to conduct routine procedural inspections for Cinnabar.
Perhaps this has become some kind of hidden attribute within the game.
Chen Nian tried to loosen his hands. Although he still felt nauseous and dizzy, he was not yet unable to control his body.
He took a quick look around and found that apart from himself and Shaflay, there were only a few people who were able to grit their teeth and persevere and continue fighting on the battlefield. They must be very strong Alphas or Omegas in real life.
In Sheila's sonic attack, these people became the last surviving force.
Noise...distractions...no electronic devices allowed.
"I suddenly had an idea." A light bulb popped up in Chen Nian's head. He looked down at Shafulai, "Can we use magic to defeat magic?"
Shafley: “What?”
Chen Nian: "The biggest threat to us right now is probably Shila's singing, but some people are not affected too much. The high-tech electronic equipment in the singing is equivalent to scrap metal, but what if we can perform sonic interference without those things?"
Shafla realized that since high technology didn't work, he could use some primitive methods.
He and Chen Nian quickly applied to add these unaffected players as friends.
Is there something that can make a loud sound through human power? The strong resonance caused by a group walking? Rubbing a glass of water with fingers? Or playing a musical instrument?
As Shafulai was thinking, he saw Chen Nian took out a suona out of nowhere.
Oh, how could he forget this? Nothing could penetrate as well as this.
Chen Nian cleared his throat, put on the reed, put it in his mouth and blew hard -
The plain and simple sound almost sent Shafley away on the spot.
Chen Nian blew it twice and said proudly, "How is it? This one is not bad."
Shaflay lowered his hands from covering his ears and said, "...It's really good."
"Wait a minute, I'll go buy some more. Tell everyone about your plan first."
Chen Nian put the suona into Shafulai's hand and disappeared. Shafulai, holding the suona, was in doubt - plan? What plan? Did he just...discuss it with Chen Nian?
Chen Nian bought nearly a thousand suonas in the prop store in one breath. When he returned to the battlefield, he saw that a large group of people had gathered in Shafulai.
These were players who were not greatly disturbed by Shira. Shafla briefly explained his conjecture to them and received many affirmative responses. In reality, the players were indeed Alphas and Omegas with strong mental powers.
As the vice president of Afanasi and a famous kryptonian in the game, Bengshemailu has a high reputation.
Nearly a thousand people gathered around him, listening to Shafley's impromptu plan.
Hmm... looks a bit unreliable.
But nearly twelve hours had passed since the mission began, and they couldn't even get into the body of the Sea Emperor. Anyone would be anxious, and instead of continuing to waste time in vain, they might as well give it a try.
What if it really works?
Seeing Chen Nian take out the suona, someone raised his hand and said, "But I don't know how to play an instrument."
"It's okay. I can't do that either. We're sending it away, not playing music for it."
Chen Nian distributed the suona to everyone and said: "Let's try to see if this kind of sonic interference works. We originally tried the sonic ship, but all the high-tech will only become scrap metal in front of Sheila. We can only rely on manual production of sonic waves."
"For a boss with a beautiful singing voice, what can hit the nail on the head and cause mental pollution? Of course, it's the most unpleasant sound. Don't worry, Ke Jing'er can do it."
Everyone agreed with what he said and began to study the instruments in their hands.
In reality, it is not easy to just play the suona. Most people can only make saliva sounds at the beginning, but it is just a game after all.
All of a sudden, all kinds of noises were heard continuously. Shafley swore that he had never heard anything so unpleasant. He quickly put on earplugs, not to protect his eardrums, but to protect his trembling brain.
"Come on, let's hurry up and give it a try."
Shafulai directly spent money to open an encrypted temporary channel and let everyone in. About six or seven hundred players lined up in a formation. Chen Nian and Shafulai looked at each other and held the lock in their hands.
【Private Channel K】Collapse and Sell-off: 3
【Private Channel K】Collapse and Sell-off: 2
【Private Channel K】Collapse and Sell-off: 1
【Private Channel K】Breakdown and sell-off: Blow!
Everyone took a deep breath at the same time, and with all their might, puffed out their cheeks to help play the wind instruments in their hands.
It's hard to describe what kind of sound this is.
More than 600 players played the suona with different strengths, pitches, and methods. The huge sound of each instrument mixed together, and the sound waves rushed up to the sky above the head and spread rapidly in all directions!
The bodies of many players who were struggling with Sheila's singing suddenly froze. The beautiful melody uttered by the Poseidon was suppressed by the huge volume and forcibly driven out of their brains. At this moment, their minds miraculously returned to clarity, but they fell into deeper pain.
It's too ugly!!!
It was as if countless vicious ghosts crawled out of the Asura hell, rushing towards the coastline accompanied by the howling of ghosts and wolves. The moment they collided with Sheila's singing, a transparent sound barrier was formed!
The sea water surged against the current, and the sky seemed to be undergoing some subtle changes. The sound of the suona penetrated the clouds, the sea water, the buildings, and everything that could be penetrated, and quickly echoed across the entire continent.
Chen Nian stared at the dial in his hand and was surprised to find that the hands that had been flipping upside down had returned to normal at this moment.
It works! It really works!
He shared the news in a private channel. No one celebrated, but all the players responded with even more enthusiastic cheers.
Blow! Blow as hard as you can!
As the sound barrier expanded, players struggled to escape from Sheila's singing, but were almost sent away by the sound of the suona.
The world channel has exploded, and the screen is full of question marks.
Chen Nian took the opportunity to run to the open space next to him. In a blink of an eye, more than a dozen large speakers appeared. He climbed onto the top of a heavy truck using his hands and feet and took out a DJ player from the prop warehouse.
Chen Nian put on his headphones, quickly adjusted the track list, and pressed the Play button on the deck player on the right. The restless drum beats blasted through a dozen large speakers, instantly pushing the atmosphere to its peak!
More and more players realized what was going on and started to participate in it in their own way. All kinds of messy instruments appeared, but compared with the suona band, they were nothing.
Some people even took advantage of the chaos to summon light bulbs, and for a moment, they surrounded the truck that had been converted into a DJ booth, with lights flashing and demons dancing wildly.
The invisible sound barrier advanced inch by inch. The equipment that was disturbed by the singing was reactivated. Many sound ships started up immediately. Ultrasonic and infrasonic waves moved forward together, turning the situation of the battle around almost instantly.
Shafley was able to put down his suona. He was dizzy from the noise and looked up at Chen Nian who was DJing on top of the truck.
The tall and muscular man was wearing headphones and shaking his head to the dynamic drum beats. His shirt was open, and Peppa Pig was so conspicuous on his muscular chest.
For some reason, Shafla suddenly felt like laughing.
Shafley climbed onto the top of the truck and watched Chen Nian skillfully playing the DJ player with his hands. He had heard that Chen Nian could do this, but he never expected to see it for the first time in the game.
Where did Chen Nian learn this? Nightclubs?
Rather than exploring, Shafley was more curious. He watched for a while and shouted, "How do you play this? Can you teach me?"
"What?" Chen Nian couldn't hear anything. The various noises outside were too loud.
[Private chat] Bengshemailu: DJ player, please teach me how to use it.
[Private chat] Mono: You want to play this? It's very simple.
Chen Nian quickly taught Shafley the techniques. Shafley had a solid knowledge of music theory, unlike him who was a latecomer and just listened for fun, and he quickly mastered the specific methods.
Chen Nian moved aside to let Shafla take over. Amidst the extremely chaotic noise and the wildly flashing lights, several intercontinental missiles shot out and headed straight for Hillary in the sea.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Shira was about to sink into the sea, but a torpedo followed closely.
Everyone heard a scream.
Then there was a slight change on Poseidon Sheila's panel.
[Target] Poseidon Hera
[HP]: 31204598/31230000
【Weakness】Sound
【Attribute】???
Finally, there was no longer a question mark, and the crowd burst into cheers.
Chen Nian couldn't help but jump up. They actually thought of a suitable solution!
He looked at Shaflay, who was also punching the DJ booth excitedly.
Chen Nian opened her arms and gave Shafulai a big hug.
If it were in reality, Shaflay would be happy to accept it, but now, he was locked by strong arms, and the next second his feet were off the ground, his whole face was squeezed into the strong chest, and he felt like he was about to be crushed to death by the pectoral muscles.
In that instant, Shafley truly experienced what it meant to be a strong man locking up a man.
Now that we have found the right method, the next step is to launch a fierce attack.
Seeing that the balance of the battlefield was tilting towards the players, Chen Nian was satisfied, and the strong sense of uneasiness in his heart finally subsided temporarily.
There are 61 hours left in the countdown.
Should everyone be able to defeat Sheila within the specified time?
Chen Nian glanced at the UI interface and realized that he had played the game for nearly 13 hours today.
Thinking of Shafulai who was still injured, Chen Nian posted a message in the guild channel: Lao Beng and I have something else to do, so we will be offline first. Come on everyone.
【Free Cherry】: Don't worry, leave it to us.
Chen Nian took off the neural adapter and his eyeballs felt swollen and painful. He had only played games all day and did nothing else except eating. He even missed a nap.
Now I can finally have a good rest.
The benefit of washing up in advance is reflected at this time. Now they can go to sleep directly after covering themselves with the quilt.
Chen Nian asked Shafley, "Do you still want to go to the bathroom?"
"No need." Shafulai drank two sips of water, still a little bit overwhelmed by the fear of being almost killed by the chest muscles, "You've worked hard today, go to sleep quickly."
Chen Nian nodded. He made sure the windows were closed and the curtains were drawn tightly before turning off the lights.
The ward was plunged into darkness, but now Chen Nian was no longer trapped by his vision. His mental power was able to help him see the scene in the room. He lay down on his own bed and covered himself with a quilt.
Chen Nian closed his eyes, but his mind was in a mess. He was still quite energetic. The surging adrenaline lingered in his blood vessels, making his thinking particularly active.
Shaflay couldn't sleep either. His mind was filled with the sound of the suona, which lingered in his mind, as if someone was playing it next to his ear.
The only sound in the quiet ward was the steady breathing of two people. After more than ten minutes, Chen Nian finally calmed down a little and slowly began to feel sleepy.
His consciousness gradually became chaotic, and blood gushed out.
White brain matter flowed between the lips and teeth, and intense pain pierced into the brain. As for the body, it was left outside.
Chen Nian suddenly woke up.
In an instant, his heartbeat soared rapidly, and the blood in his body solidified, and then surged rapidly.
The frightening dull pain in his chest made him curl up involuntarily. All the sleepiness that he had managed to accumulate was swept away, and a feeling of nausea followed, and all the dirty parts of his body protested.
He silently endured the discomfort and listened to his heartbeat slowly slowing down.
Fear grows in the darkness. Is there something hidden behind the curtains? There is a large gap under the bed. Will someone sneak in while he and Shafley are playing games?
If there really was, he would be eaten.
The more Chen Nian thought about it, the more scared he became. This was the first time in his life that he was so frightened that he couldn't sleep.
You know, he always walked alone at night before.
Chen Nian couldn't bear it any longer. He glanced at Shafulei and wondered if Alpha was asleep. He called out softly, "Shafulei?"
No response, seems to be asleep.
Chen Nian sighed, and just as he was about to find another way, he heard a voice from the side: "Huh?"
"Are you awake?"
"Almost. What's wrong?"
Chen Nian felt a little embarrassed. It was too much to say that he was scared, but he couldn't stand it any longer: "Can I... sleep over there with you?"
Shaflay opened his eyes silently.
Omega's voice was a little tense, and he probably understood that Chen Nian must be scared.
"OK."
Chen Nian immediately got up from the bed and climbed onto Shafulai's bed barefoot. Alpha moved to the side to make some room for him.
The sweet smell of sherry wafted into his nose, relaxing his tense nerves instinctively. The bed where Chen Nian lay was still stained with the warmth of taffeta. Although it was not in line with his usual style to climb into the bed of an Alpha who was interested in him, it was better than being unable to sleep due to fear.
As soon as Chen Nian moved his foot slightly, it hit the hard plaster.
no.
After all, the bed was for one person, and it was too crowded for the two of them to sleep in. He was not a good sleeper, and if he touched Shafla's injury in the middle of the night, he would be doomed.
Chen Nian sat up again: "I'd better sleep in my bed."
All the beds had rollers. Chen Nian opened the latch and pushed his bed next to Shafulai's, so that the two beds were placed together, although there was a handrail in the middle.
He took a special look under the bed and found no one hiding.
Chen Nian lay down and tried his best to get closer to Shaflay. The presence of Alpha made him feel much more at ease.
Both the taste and the temperature.
Shafley: "Go to sleep."
Chen Nian hummed and closed his eyes, still a little scared.
His hand reached out from under the quilt, groping silently bit by bit, crossing the railing between the two beds, entering Alpha's territory, and finally touching Shaflay's fingers.
Then grab Alpha's little finger.
It was this warmth from physical contact that made Chen Nian feel completely at ease.
Go to bed, it's late.
