According to the introduction of "Comrade Xiao Ke", Dai Xiaomei learned that the signal tower is currently closed. In order to restart it, an extremely powerful [Arc Gun] is needed.
This thing is capable of generating about 5 megajoules of energy per second.
To put it simply, if you electrocute someone, you can crush them to pieces.
Cole found one, but it was broken.
If you want to use a new one, you need to go to the sub-station inside the control room and ask the maintenance robot Marvin to get it.
"but……"
At this point, Cole waved his hand, motioning for Dai Xiaomei to follow him.
Following Captain Cole all the way to the control room, we came to the end of the maintenance ladder and saw Captain Cole pointing inside:
"That's the situation. Generally, only working robots can enter the maintenance substation. There's nothing we can do."
Dai Xiaomei looked in the direction Cole pointed.
In front of me, I saw pipelines as thick as two people hugging together crisscrossing each other. On the concrete walls on both sides, there were not only huge cooling fans, but also exposed circuits, which were crackling and emitting sparks and lightning.
The internal structure is so endless that only maintenance drones are flying in the sky.
In this place, you have to walk on the eaves.
"All right,"
Dai Xiaomei shrugged:
"This place was designed for me, let me do it."
As she spoke, BT also marked the location of the arc gun on her heads-up display.
"Good luck, sir!"
Cole saw Dai Xiaomei nod and bowed to her.
Dai Xiaomei also pulled out the Aoquan shotgun she had just taken from the weapon box, with a serious expression:
"Since my comrades have entrusted me with such an important task, I, as the Pilot, will naturally do my best to fulfill my duty!"
As she spoke, Dai Xiaomei took a few steps back, looked at the crisscrossing pipelines in front of her, looked at the electric grid flashing with arcs on both sides, and then she took a running start and jumped up!
"It's time to show the real—"
Before she finished speaking, due to inaccurate calculation of the take-off distance, Dai Xiaomei's toes moved forward a little bit, just enough to touch the high-voltage power grid:
“Tech, tech, tech…”
Sizzle, sizzle—
Lightning flashes!
Dai Xiaomei was like a lightning rod in a storm, with lightning flashing all over her body and twitching constantly.
What's even more exciting is that someone in the barrage continued her words and said faintly:
'Bebebebebe?'
Suddenly, the live broadcast room burst into laughter!
"What Girls' Generation?"
'Hahahaha, these stupid netizens can really pick up on any joke'
'There's no sense of disobedience'
"Aren't we going to watch a movie? Why did you change it to a singing and dancing show?"
'I often feel out of place in this live broadcast room because I am not stupid enough'
"Hahahahahahahahaha I'm going to vomit from laughing..."
"……"
There aren't many enemies in this level.
But parkour has many elements and is relatively difficult.
After all, this is a somatosensory cabin.
Facing the crackling and sparking electric grid and the fan that would turn you into a pulp if you were not careful, the mental pressure was very great.
Almost every step requires players to make precise calculations.
Even a player like Dai Xiaomei, who had played the Iron Pilot Trial for a whole week, had to try five or six times before she got the arc gun back.
"Good to see you back sir."
As soon as she landed, she saw Captain Cole waving to greet her:
"Our circuits have been configured, now all we need is power."
BT continued: [Pilot, the power relays are all turned off. Using the arc gun should be able to activate them.]
"Yes,"
Cole also said:
"I hope this arc device won't make us waste so much effort!"
Hearing this, Dai Xiaomei’s nose was so angry that it was crooked!
"You..." She looked at Cole, her eyes full of surprise and disbelief!
us?!
Do you want to listen to what you are saying?
I'm obviously the only one jumping up and down after being electrocuted and beaten, right?
The barrage was also a burst of laughter——
"What the hell, Captain Cole, what a boast..."
'The military medal was divided in half without a word'
'The old leader is different!'
"The old woman and the captain's workplace skills are not on the same level."
"This is too profound."
'"us"'
'Two words sent the old woman flying into the distance'
'Ha ha ha ha……'
"……"
After hesitating for a long time, Dai Xiaomei couldn't say that all the credit was hers, so she could only swallow her breath and walk towards the relay power room.
When I entered the power room, I saw that the hemispherical dome was filled with relay modules the size of computer display screens. At this moment, all the modules were in the green low-power state.
Dai Xiaomei looked around and raised the arc gun.
Come to think of it, I haven’t used this thing since I got it.
Thinking about it, Dai Xiaomei aimed at one row of relay modules and pressed the trigger button.
Hiss——sizzle——!!!
Dai Xiaomei even felt a strong recoil!
Then, a thunder-like electric current shot out from the front end of the arc gun!
There were flashes of lightning, bursts of thunder, and a burst of exclamations from the barrage!
'ohhhhhhhh——'
"Fuck the Thunder King !"
"Can this thing be used to call people?"
"It should just be a quest item..."
"Let's see if the plot will confiscate it after the power is restored."
"Fuck, this would be awesome if it could electrocute people."
"Professor Yang, right?"
'An Antidote to Internet Addiction'
'Yongxin Happy Gun...'
'God damn Yongxin happy gun hahahahahaha'
"Too rough..."
"……"
soon!
All relays were activated by high voltage current, and in order to avoid harm from ionizing radiation, Dai Xiaomei quickly evacuated the power room.
"Wow, this is awesome!"
Dai Xiaomei, who had just controlled a wave of lightning, couldn't let go of the arc gun in her hand.
If it was possible to attack friendly forces, she would even want to use Captain Cole to try out the effect of this thing on people.
Fortunately, Captain Cole had a strong desire to survive. When he saw Dai Xiaomei coming back, he immediately gave her a thumbs up:
"Great sir!"
Then he turned around, clapped his hands, and directed his Lancer teammate in charge of the operation desk:
"Open the protective gate and start restarting the signal station lock!"
rumble.
That’s it!
Then the protective gate covering the dome of the control room slowly rose.
Under the rising sun, electric sparks flickered on the huge signal tower in the distance.
Electronic prompt sounds rang synchronously in the control room——
[Starting to restart the connection lock module...]
[60%...70%...80%...]
Following the voice prompt, everyone's eyes turned to the signal tower.
Then I saw the huge satellite dish begin to rotate slowly.
"Hey - that's it -"
Dai Xiaomei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the signal tower is just an action performance module in the game, and it is not really for her to climb the tower despite her fear of heights.
After confirming this, Dai Xiaomei's face gradually became arrogant, and she commented:
"This level is pretty good, but I think it can be improved."
"If I were the old thief, I would let the players climb the tower,"
"What kind of hero is it to just fly around in the control room?"
“Not very good, not challenging!”
As soon as these words came out!
The barrage was instantly filled with question marks——
'? ? ? '
"Weren't you the one who was screaming in fear at the beginning?"
"You didn't even dare to breathe for the whole game. Now that the signal station has been restored, are you excited?"
"Damn it! She actually got it right!"
"This level is indeed a failure. The failure is that it gave the old woman the opportunity to be stubborn."
'Prayer signal station restart failed'
'Fuck! I'll trade my roommate's 20 years of singleness for a signal station restart failure!'
'Count me in!'
"I'll trade it for the lifetime singleness of everyone in my dorm!"
'?'
"You are such beasts..."
'When you guys are roommates, it's also...'
"……"
However!
Just when the barrage viewers were filled with indignation and Dai Xiaomei was feeling smug after the fact!
Kalong——!!!
Suddenly!
Then I heard a muffled sound coming from the signal tower in the distance!
Following right on!
The control room broadcast prompt sounded!
【Warning! Emergency shutdown if an error is found! 】
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Three muffled explosions were heard!
Everyone watched as a series of explosions occurred at the signal tower in the distance, debris flew everywhere, and the restart failed!
quiet.
In the entire live broadcast room.
Deathly silence!
Then, two seconds later!
'ohhhhhhhhhhhh——!!!'
'It exploded! It exploded!'
'Wuhu! The wish worked! Hahahahahahaha!'
'Never had a better start!'
"Blast! Blast hard! Repair! Climb up and repair!"
'Hahahahahahahaha the old woman is dumbfounded!'
'Instant curse!'
'Anchor? Anchor, can you say something? Anchor, why are you silent?'
'Are you there? Are you there? Are you there?'
'No Challenge'
'What kind of hero is it to just fly around in the control room?'
'"If I were the old thief, I would let the players climb the tower"'
"Old Thief: What a coincidence! I thought so too."
'Hahahahahahahahaha the old woman is really brave, don't you know who the old thief is? '
'It's over, the anchor is pretending to be offline'
"Don't worry, the anchor has gone out to change into adult diapers and will be back soon."
"Say something, host..."
"……"
Can I say something?
What the fuck did I say!
I said fucking spoon!
When Dai Xiaomei saw the collapsed and exploded signal tower, she felt that her brain was collapsing along with it!
Grass!
Why is there such a plot?
I was so fucking scared at one point. The arc gun that I finally got back should have been able to restore power smoothly, send a signal to call the fleet, and then we could all happily fight the thief, steal the Ark and kill the IMC?
“Hey—hey—!”
Dai Xiaomei felt that she had lost her voice. She looked at Cole in horror and pointed at the signal tower in the distance that had failed to restart:
“Aba—Aaaaaa—!”
"oops!"
Seeing this, Captain Cole also let out an annoyed groan!
Cole frowned and looked at Dai Xiaomei, then nodded:
"Yes, it has some malfunctions and we have to manually repair the module,"
"IMC support is on the way here now. Looks like we're relying on you again, Pilot Commander!"
"I hope you don't mind!"
I mind!
When Dai Xiaomei heard the words "manual repair", she felt like the sky was falling!
What the hell are you talking about!
I fucking mind it!
However, just when she was about to refuse!
Then I heard BT say: [IMC reinforcements are coming, we are running out of time, Pilot]
As he spoke, BT leaned forward slightly and opened the cockpit door.
"ah……?"
Look at the group of riflemen who are full of expectations, and then look at the BT who are waiting to set off with them.
Dai Xiaomei looked back every few steps, just like a death row prisoner in ancient times who was about to be beheaded.
but!
Now, all hopes rest on her alone. Unless she stops playing, she must climb the tower.
The live broadcast room has 69 million views.
God knows how much loss will be caused by taking the show offline at the speed of light at this time.
Therefore, even if it is for work, she has to overcome her psychological fear and board BT!
Rumble—boom! boom! boom!
Dull footsteps were heard, and BT led her all the way to the signal tower.
Taking the elevator all the way to the base platform of the signal tower, Dai Xiaomei looked out!
They are now at the main tower of the signal station.
And outside the main tower, there are operation towers that are also "floating" in the clouds.
These operating towers are connected by iron frames , crisscrossing each other, like a heavenly factory floating in the sky.
Dai Xiaomei came to the edge of the platform, lay on the ground and looked down.
Then it shrank back like a cockroach.
It's fucking horrible.
Beneath the misty clouds beneath your feet is a bottomless abyss, so deep that you can't even see the bottom at a glance.
If you fall from here, I'm afraid you won't even be able to shovel it up.
Clank--clank--clank--
As I was thinking about it, BT followed.
He came to the edge of the platform, stood beside Dai Xiaomei, and then raised his mechanical arm and pointed to the right front:
[BT: My scanner has detected an active link lock module, 428 meters northeast]
[BT: My analysis shows that throwing is the only way]
Talking about it!
BT took two steps back, pointed one hand forward, and stretched the other hand behind him, making a javelin throwing gesture, waiting for the Pilot to sit on his hand.
Holy shit——!!!
The silly little girl who just stood up sat down again with a thud!
Have I seen this pose somewhere before?
Oh yeah!
Previously in the level [Cause and Effect], BT once threw a lamp pole to open a path for himself.
At that time, I even joked, "Next time you can try to throw me."
Now.
The opportunity has come.
"Fuck, you have such a good memory, bro! I was just kidding! Don't take it seriously!"
Dai Xiaomei sat on the ground and refused to get up no matter what, and even squirmed backwards!
At this time, the barrage was also full of cheers and laughter——
"Fuck, it's not climbing a tower, it's throwing a Pilot?!"
'What a simple and crude method'
"Oh, I remember now! Isn't this the scene in the second half of the trailer?"
"Damn! This is a foreshadowing! I saw many anchors were rude at the time!"
"Okay, now my dream has come true."
'You are the one who has the worst mouth, the one who can only pretend to be the bravest, and you say that the old thief didn't design the tower climb, and your life is not complete.'
'Old thief: This time I will make you perfect! Not only perfect, but I can even make you pass away!'
'I laughed so hard, the slap in the face came so fast like a tornado'
“Hahahahahahaha…”
It’s really fucking hard to guard against!
Dai Xiaomei sat on the ground, unable to cry.
But things have come to this!
She was like a tourist experiencing bungee jumping. She had taken all the precautions and was standing next to the platform. There was no reason not to jump!
The worst that can happen is just a matter of closing your eyes and making up your mind!
“Hiss—whoosh—”
“Hiss—whoosh—”
Take a deep breath!
Dai Xiaomei forced herself to prepare herself mentally, swallowed her saliva, dragged her limp legs, and reluctantly came to BT:
“Hoo-hoo-crazy crazy crazy-”
"I'm fucking crazy—"
"You're fucking crazy too—"
"Are we primitive people? Why do we need catapult technology?"
While blabbering on, Dai Xiaomei climbed onto BT's hand and held her breath!
Just listen to BT:
[BT: I won't go crazy, I can throw you over there]
Talking about it!
BT pulled the hand that was holding up Dai Xiaomei backwards, and at the same time raised the other hand as a ruler, aiming at the control tower in the distance!
[BT: Wind force 3 knots, wind direction 274, distance 95 meters, throwing weight 89kg...]
Next moment!
Dai Xiaomei saw BT turned his head, looked at her with his big "eyes" and blinked.
Then he clenched his hand into a fist and made an affirmative gesture towards her!
【BT: Believe me! 】
“Aaaaaaaaaa——!!!”
Accompanied by screams like pigs being slaughtered in the live broadcast room!
Dai Xiaomei only felt a huge force coming at her, and she was suddenly thrown out of the platform like a sandbag!
The wind rushes past my ears and the clouds flow and drift under my feet!
The control tower rapidly enlarged before my eyes!
The intense stimulation made her adrenaline surge rapidly, and her heart rate soared into the sky like a bungee jumping machine!
Next second!
[Ding! Blood pressure, heart rate, breathing rate, adrenaline are detected to be excessive... You have automatically disconnected from the body sensor connection! ]
The barrage instantly exploded——
"What the hell!!!"
'Pull the power off!!!'
