Chapter 751 Unable to Exit
The waves in the stormy sea were rolling and surging, with the height of the waves even reaching around 20 meters. Zhang Tuohai had to increase the flying altitude to avoid being hit by the waves.
When he entered the Storm Sea, Zhang Tuohai clearly felt that the mastermind behind the scenes was getting a little anxious.
The sky was filled with dark clouds and heavy rain. Lightning bolts mixed with basketball-sized hailstones struck the car . Waterspouts rose from the sea. Dozens of waterspouts swept towards Zhang Tuohai from all directions. In the distance, more waterspouts were forming, threatening to encircle and annihilate Zhang Tuohai.
"So hard-working? Could it be that I touched your vital point?"
Looking at the lightning that continuously attacked the plasma shield, Zhang Tuohai felt a little happy in his heart.
The more anxious the mastermind is, the more it proves that he is doing the right thing.
He looked at the attacks coming from all directions, smiled contemptuously, and then controlled the flying saucer to dive into the water.
All attacks from all directions failed at once.
When lightning strikes the sea, even its powerful force is diluted completely.
When huge hailstones fall into the sea, they sink about thirty to fifty meters before their kinetic energy is exhausted.
As for waterspouts, although they can cause storms on the sea, they are extremely powerful.
However, the range of its influence underwater is very limited.
Zhang Tuohai directly set the diving depth to 200 meters. At this depth, even if the sea surface was hit by bubbles, it would not affect him.
The stormy sea, known for its danger, turned out to be his most powerful shielding barrier.
Seeing the mastermind angrily throwing lightning bolts onto the sea but being helpless, Zhang Tuohai raised his middle finger to him in contempt, then stepped on the accelerator and drove the flying saucer rapidly forward.
Seeing that his attacks had no effect on Zhang Tuohai, the mastermind behind the scenes withdrew his tactics in disappointment. The wind and rain stopped, and the sea became unusually calm.
Zhang Tuohai took a look and ignored it, continuing to dive underwater.
Since the speed of traveling underwater and on the water is almost the same, why should he risk being attacked by traveling on the water?
After driving for a while, Zhang Tuohai felt that the surroundings were too quiet and a bit boring, so he handed the driving rights to Xiao Ai and opened the regional channel to see how the players were doing.
As soon as he turned on the regional channel, he saw red obituaries floating by.
Zhang Tuohai flipped through the pages and found that they were filled with death obituaries.
He looked at the number of people again. At this time, there were still more than a thousand players left, which was half the number of the last time.
"What happened? Why did so many people die suddenly?"
Zhang Tuohai frowned and kept flipping through the players' conversation records.
Through the information revealed by the players, Zhang Tuohai gradually understood the truth of the matter.
It turned out that after he killed the Balrog and cut off the source of the Orcs' production, the other Orcs scattered across the continent went crazy, frantically attacking all humans they could see.
This kind of madness caught humanity off guard and they suffered heavy losses. Many fortresses were captured and towns and villages were razed to the ground.
However, the orcs also suffered heavy losses because of this reckless attack. Although the total number is still huge, they are scattered in every corner of the continent, giving humans an opportunity to defeat them one by one.
Now, humans have begun to purposefully organize elite teams to strangle the remaining orcs and regain lost territory. The balance of victory has begun to tilt in the direction of humans.
The human players also realized that this was an opportunity and began to attempt a small-scale counterattack.
Many people formed teams and began hunting orcs.
As he watched, Zhang Tuohai suddenly discovered a problem.
That is, the players' tasks have not changed.
It is still stuck on the progress of rescuing the trapped players and is not updated in real time.
Many players in the regional channel have also discovered this problem. Some people did rescue the players trapped in the fortress , and everyone worked together to eliminate the orcs besieging the fortress. However, the task progress still has not been updated.
This leaves many players confused.
However, most players are limited by information and dare not ask any other questions, so they can only complain on the regional channel.
Zhang Tuohai flipped through it for a while and found no valuable information. Just as he was about to close the regional channel, a newly compiled monitoring record came into Zhang Tuohai's sight.
The source of this monitoring record is very interesting. Those being monitored are all "high-level players" holding dependent badges, and two of them even have badge levels as high as 20.
According to the communication between these players, they also discovered the stagnation of the mission. Moreover, a player who upgraded the Dependent Badge to level ten tried to interrupt the mission and exit the current world, but there was no response.
The player felt something was wrong and immediately passed the news to several other "senior players". Everyone tried it and found that it was indeed impossible to exit the current world.
This discovery made these players numb.
Originally, they always had a feeling of superiority when facing ordinary players.
I feel that no matter how dangerous the world is, as long as I am not killed instantly, the worst that can happen is that I can just use my privileges to exit.
If you can’t beat him this time, come back next time when you’ve improved your strength.
However, now they are just like those ordinary players and cannot quit. They can only continue to struggle in this world. This discovery made them panic and they gathered together to think of countermeasures. However, after analyzing for a long time, they still couldn't figure out the reason and finally left unhappily.
After receiving this news, Zhang Tuohai became active.
Although he also had the privilege of withdrawing, because he had always been in an advantageous position and there were still many cards that had not been revealed, he felt that he still had hope of completing the task. Therefore, despite experiencing many difficulties, he never thought of withdrawing, which led to his failure to discover this problem.
The mission was interrupted, the privileges of the dependent badge could not be used, and the follow-up supplies were delayed. This series of problems made Zhang Tuohai feel that there must be some connection among them.
These are all related to demigods, and yet they were cut off at the same time. This shows that there is definitely a force at least comparable to a demigod, or even higher, involved.
"What could it be? Another demigod? Or an evil god? Or a powerful organization like the Tower of Babel?"
Zhang Tuohai was puzzled.
He tried to send a message to Alice to ask, but was shocked to find that there was no communication signal on the Babel Tower's communicator.
"All-round information blocking. Who has such great power? And why do they do this?"
Zhang Tuohai fell into deep thought.
