This Game Is Too Realistic

"Mission..."

Looking blankly at the person in front of him, Xiaoyang's eyes were filled with confusion and fear, and he couldn't help but move back and forth.

Seeing her reaction, Ye Shi put away the plasma-coated dagger and scratched his helmet.

"Don't think I'm a bit scary, but I'm actually a good person... Uh, okay, I know that's not very convincing."

If it were him, if a guy suddenly broke into the community one day and went on a killing spree, grabbed his arm and asked him to follow him, he would probably pee in fear.

She wasn't scared to tears, this little girl's psychological quality was pretty good.

But the problem is that he really doesn't know how to explain the current situation, and he himself is also in a confused state.

According to the original plan, he should take a carriage to the servants' quarters not far away, get off the car, go to the annex, and take the people away without anyone noticing.

However, things deviated from the original plan from the beginning.

The carriage suddenly stopped halfway, and then the coachman rushed into the carriage and rushed on him like crazy.

At first, Ye Shi planned to subdue the man, but later found out that he didn't care at all, the man couldn't listen at all, and even reached out to snatch his weapon.

Unable to communicate at all, Ye Shi could only twist his neck, then jumped out of the carriage and went straight to the annex located in a corner of the manor.

However, after arriving at the annex, he discovered that things were not as simple as he thought. Everyone in the annex was in the same state as the coachman.

Almost the moment he stepped into the annex, those guys sensed his presence and pounced on him like zombies.

If Lao Bai hadn't helped deliver the exoskeleton near the settlement before the war started, and the officer who intended to rebel had helped them deliver the exoskeleton here, it would have been impossible to escape from the siege of the "zombie". is an easy thing.

To be honest, he is still confused and has no idea what happened.

The only thing that was certain was that something terrible must have happened to this manor—and even to the entire settlement.

Perhaps they should conduct a more careful investigation before entering the settlement.

It was obvious that someone was eyeing them, and took advantage of their plan, taking the opportunity to play tricks on them.

Just when Ye Shi was thinking about how to explain it, the girl lying dazedly in Xiaoyang's arms suddenly moved her eyelashes. As if awakened by the movement around her, a slow murmur came from her mouth.

"I'm hungry..."

The sudden and strange sound made everyone in the basement feel a bone-deep cold, as if they had fallen into an ice cave at 50 degrees below zero.

Yinyin opened her mouth in an exaggerated manner, even her gums turned out, like a beast that had been hungry for a week, biting the lamb's neck hard.

The little sheep was completely stunned, and stood motionless in a daze.

Seeing that the bloody mouth was about to bite her, a gun barrel was suddenly inserted into the mouth roughly, pushing back Yin Yin who was lying on her body.

"ah!!"

A manic roar came from Yin Yin's mouth, her hands with bulging veins kept stretching forward, and her bloodthirsty pupils seemed to be tearing her apart.

"Are you... crazy?! Get away from her!" Looking at the frightened little girl, Ye Shi broke out in a cold sweat and couldn't help but roar.

Good guy.

Even when he was bitten, he didn't even try to dodge, he even closed his eyes.

If he had arrived two minutes late, what would have been lying here would have been an unrecognizable corpse!

Looking at Yin Yin struggling with a ferocious face and the gun barrel in her mouth, Xiaoyang suddenly woke up as if he had come back to his senses, rushed forward and hugged his calf, shouting with a hint of crying. .

"Don't... don't shoot!"

Looking at the pleading little sheep, Ye Shi gritted his teeth, but in the end he didn't make up his mind and turned off the safety. He reached out and grabbed the girl who had turned out to be a zombie, and dragged her aside and tied her hands and feet with plastic ropes.

Yinyin's hands and feet were bound, struggling on the ground, her eyelashes were stained with dust, and her beautiful face was twisted into a ball. At this moment, she was like a mad beast, baring her teeth and hissing.

"She has become a zombie... just like those people outside, just like eating food. Damn it, do these dogs grow other things besides getting fruits?"

Standing up, Ye Shi glanced at the struggling little girl, then turned to look at the little sheep kneeling on the ground.

"There's no time to explain. I'll make a long story short. Believe it or not. Your dad spent a lot of money and asked us to come and take you out of here. Now all you have to do is follow me and I will take you out of here. ! Of course, if you don’t obey me honestly, I will have to tie you up like her and take you away, understand?”

If possible, he really didn't want to do this. It would be troublesome enough to deal with those guys outside who looked like gnawers, and his ammunition was not unlimited.

He had reason to suspect that it wasn't just the people in the manor who had turned into that ghostly appearance. The entire settlement might have suffered, and he didn't know what would happen to him later.

Fortunately, although this little girl didn't look very smart, she was calm enough. Even if she was frightened and had no ability to communicate, she could still communicate normally.

Looking at the man covered in blood, Xiaoyang nodded palely.

"I understand... I will go with you, please, please save Yinyin..."

Glancing at the little girl tied into a rice dumpling leaning against the wall, Ye Shi had a troubled expression on her face.

"Save...how to save this."

To put it bluntly, he didn't even know what happened to these people.

㳎Tape your mouth shut and take it back?

It’s not that I don’t care.

It's just that he only has one person. It's troublesome to bring a drag bottle. If he brings another one to hold him back, even he doesn't have much confidence.

The little sheep swallowed, tried to stay calm, and said tremblingly.

"I...may know why everyone is like this."

"Huh?" Ye Shi glanced at her.

Seeing that the man was willing to listen to him, Xiaoyang continued patiently.

"This villa... is a very important place in the manor. It was the main building of the manor a long time ago. Later, a new big house was built, and the master used it to place some important guests under house arrest."

Ye Shi couldn't help but feel a hint of surprise in his eyes.

This doesn't sound like something a six-year-old would say.

By the way, can she understand the concept of hostages at her age?

"Then what?"

The lamb continued.

"Because this place is very important...there are many people guarding it. Although some servants wear servants' clothes, they are not actually servants, but the master's confidants. It is no exaggeration to say that this place is even safer than the building." It is precisely because of this that the master is very reassured here. If I go to other places, many people will be looking for me anxiously. But here, even if I disappear for a while, no one will notice..."

"That is to say, if there is any secret that needs to be kept hidden from others, your master will most likely put it here?" Ye Shi touched his chin and said thoughtfully.

Whether it is for protection or surveillance, this is indeed the safest choice. Hostages staying in the annex can also act as smoke bombs.

If someone is assigned to handle the scribing area, it will be more conspicuous.

The lamb nodded nervously.

"Well...don't you think it's strange? In such an important place, such a large basement was built, but it was only used to store some sundries. And in fact, everyone didn't really pile up the things they need every day. The boxes were A thick layer of ash has fallen.”

Ye Shi raised the flashlight and glanced around, trying to get some clues from the nearby area. However, no matter how he looked at it, this place was just an ordinary basement.

But as she said, it is indeed a bit suspicious that such an important place retains such a space of unknown meaning.

Even if it was dug before and now it is gone, we still have to find a way to bury it or seal it completely, right?

However, the owner of this manor did not do this.

"Then...Yinyin told me that there is an iron door in the basement of the villa. If I hide it there, no one will find it. Then she sneaked in with me."

"Actually... I don't feel like this is good. If you accidentally see something you shouldn't see, something very bad might happen. I really can't persuade her, so I can only follow her down. ”

"After she came down, she said she heard something, and then she took me forward... We actually found the door."

Ye Shi swallowed.

"That door...what's behind it?"

The little sheep shook his head, his face full of regret.

"I don't know...Yinyin wanted to open the door, but she fainted shortly after holding the door handle. She slept for a long time, and then she woke up like this. I guess it has something to do with the sound behind the door. …But I couldn’t hear her voice at all.”

Ye Shi said with a frown.

"I didn't hear it either."

Logically speaking this shouldn't be the case.

His perception is very high. Even the slightest sound will be infinitely amplified by his keen sixth sense and analyzed instinctively.

If there was any sound there, it must not have escaped his intuition.

But suspiciously, he didn't notice it at all.

"...I believe that Yinyin is not joking. She really heard something and followed the sound to find the door. If she can go in and turn off the thing that made the sound, she should return to normal. ”

After saying that, Xiaoyang grabbed Ye Shi's arm, looked up at him pleadingly and said.

"Please, please...save her."

To be honest, Ye Shi didn't really want to cause trouble.

Especially since the plan had deviated from the track from the beginning, Fang Chang still didn't know what the situation was.

With so many variables happening from the beginning, the primary goal of "controlling the farm" may have failed. In this case, it may be the safest choice to immediately withdraw and stop the loss with the secondary goal.

It's not a good idea to stay in the basement for too long. The only way out can easily be blocked by chasing troops.

What if there is nothing behind that door?

After all, if it was so important there, why wasn't there a guard or even a lock so that the two children could easily find it and almost open the door?

But looking at the pleading eyes of the NPC, he finally gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and tapped his helmet with his right fist.

"...Fang Chang, what's going on over there?"

There was no movement in the communication channel, only the rustling sound of electricity.

This is not simply a lack of signal, but more like something has interfered with it.

Ye Shi cursed secretly, tapped his helmet with his index finger, turned off the communication channel, and then looked at the girl with pleading eyes.

"Think clearly, you only live once... This is not a joke. I hope you won't hear any nonsense like 'Why is this like this' or 'I may have heard wrongly' later."

It doesn't matter if he dies.

Anyway, one life lasts three days.

I might feel sorry for Brother Luo Yu for not bringing the person back safely. If something like this happened, I believe he wouldn't blame himself too much.

The little sheep nodded seriously.

"Well...I've thought about it clearly."

Ye Shi nodded and took a deep breath.

"Then I believe what you said."

"Thank you……"

Looking at the little girl who was sincerely thanking her, Ye Shi urged her.

"It's too early to say this now, take me there."

"Um!"

The little sheep nodded nervously and took the initiative to run ahead.

Ye Shi followed her, and the two walked for a while in the dark basement. Soon they saw the iron door hidden behind the wooden box in a remote compartment.

Mottled rust has penetrated from the handle to the crack of the door, making people wonder how long no one has been here.

"This is it..." Looking at the rusty iron door, the little sheep timidly backed away from him.

Ye Shi stepped forward and reached out to hold the rusty door handle. He pulled it and found that it was quite heavy, so he used the power of the exoskeleton to pull hard.

The thick door panel was too heavy for a six or seven-year-old girl, but for him wearing an exoskeleton, it was as light as a piece of paper.

With a heartbreaking squeaking sound, the rusty iron door was easily pulled open by him, revealing the passage hidden behind it.

"Young man... is it really unlocked?"

The passage behind the door is clean and tidy, with a metal floor and cement gray paint on the walls. Compared with the basement and the rusty iron door outside the door, the corridor behind the door is simply two completely different worlds.

Looking at the corridor leading to an unknown direction, Ye Shi's face suddenly showed an expression of surprise, his eyes gradually became excited, and he looked back at Xiaoyang.

"You wait for me here...if anyone comes in, run to the door immediately."

Xiaoyang nodded vigorously and replied seriously.

"Um!"

After receiving an affirmative answer, Ye Shi didn't waste any more time. He raised the muzzle of his gun and stepped carefully into the door, continuing to explore along this clean and tidy corridor.

This place is like a clinic or a laboratory. Through the floor-to-ceiling glass, you can see a dazzling array of equipment and a display screen with a sci-fi color.

There are various signs that this place has been abandoned, and something should have happened recently.

I don’t know whether I left in a hurry and didn’t have time to clean up, or there was no need to clean up at all. The display screens were still on, and some experimental equipment was still working, making an unexplained buzzing sound.

Ye Dou's face became more and more surprised.

It's hard to imagine that this research facility would appear in an unattractive plantation.

By the way, is the cost of this facility really affordable for just a farmer?

This is much more expensive than building a beautiful house.

Went into one of the laboratories.

Ye Shi looked at the screen closest to him and saw nothing on the blank interface. He thought the contents had been deleted.

After exiting the laboratory, Ye Shi continued to explore along the corridor, and soon came to the room located at the deepest part of the corridor.

When he walked in, he was immediately shocked by the situation here.

I saw a huge metal round tube sitting in the center of the room, connecting the floor and ceiling. Data cables as thick as forearms extended from its base, connecting it to the wall and another device in the room. .

This thing looks familiar.

After seeing it clearly, Ye Shi's eyes suddenly widened with a surprised expression on his face.

"...Mind interference device?!"

This thing is exactly the same as the one he saw in the eastern suburbs of Qingquan before! Even the main structure has not changed, only the connection and peripherals have been improved!

"Could it be that this thing is what makes those people outside go crazy... Hiss, that's not right, isn't this thing useless to humans with higher mental levels?"

It cannot be said that it is completely useless. The impact is very limited and limited (it can only affect people's subjective judgment on some trivial matters). For example, when you are hesitating whether to buy something, let people choose to buy it or not.

On some major decisions related to life, society and even the future of civilization, this device has almost no impact.

Otherwise, when this technology was first developed, it would not just be used for advertising. The entire human society would be subverted by this advanced technology.

Suddenly, Ye Shi remembered something crucial.

"Naguo...?"

Under normal circumstances, mind interference devices are not effective on people. At most, they can only be used to drive away some alien species with low mental level in a wide area.

If you eat Naguo and enter a fugue state...

"Young man... So the so-called 'gospel' is actually this thing?!"

There might be similar things hidden in other settlements!

Thinking about this, Ye Shi couldn't help but feel his scalp numb.

But now is not the time to think about these things.

In front of the terminal device connected to the metal round pipe, Ye Shi pulled out a data cable from the VM, searched for a long time and finally found a suitable interface and inserted it.

The alliance's scientific expedition team has players with professional levels of LV3 and above to provide hacking programs, including basic functions such as breaking through firewalls, obtaining access control, capturing data, etc.

This hack was primarily designed for civilian security systems in the pre-war era.

Although this kind of general-purpose small program is unreliable most of the time, especially if the VM's hardware conditions cannot support the huge amount of calculations, it is still worth a try considering that even the door locks are not bothered to install security measures.

The entire settlement is covered by this mind interference device.

If his deduction is correct, theoretically every "believer" here is the eye of the bishop hidden in the sanctuary. Even the farmer himself was unknowingly acting as a puppet for the Torch Church.

All cover-ups are for outsiders. For people living here, there is no need for any cover-up or protection.

The mind interference device itself is the best defense.

If someone accidentally comes here by mistake, they only need to "turn off" the unlucky guy's consciousness and make her faint like the day before.

Ye Shi stared at the VM screen nervously, silently counting the time in his heart.

He needs to take away this data as much as possible, and he also has to consider the pressure his teammates are under at the moment.

If there was no result in 2 minutes, he would directly attach C4 to the metal tube, set the time to detonate, and directly physically destroy the research facility.

Perhaps he heard the call deep in his heart. At the last ten seconds of the countdown, a line of light blue pop-up windows popped up in the center of the VM screen.

[Read-only permission is obtained. 】

[Obtaining operation permission...]

After reading this line, I almost gave up. I was so surprised that I almost cheered.

"What the hell!? It's really possible!"

Brother Yin Fang is awesome!

Of course, maybe Xiaoqi is awesome!

A simple operation interface appeared on the terminal screen in front of him. Although it was densely packed with characters and none of them could be understood by him, the plug-in installed on the VM automatically translated it to make it easier for players to understand the language.

The copy sequence is being executed automatically.

Although most of the data has been deleted, there is still some residual data that has been mined and sorted out.

Waiting for the small program on the VM to obtain the operation permission to shut down the device, he opened one of the files that had been sorted out at ten o'clock in the night, and a line of titles quickly caught his eye.

"...Plan 03?"

What the hell?

You can't tell much from the title alone.

With a hint of curiosity, Ye Shi stretched out his index finger and moved it on the screen, looked at the summary of the document, and read it in a low voice.

"...If it is determined that there is a risk of leakage in the plan, the relevant research units must immediately terminate the ongoing research, destroy the experimental data, and initiate Plan 03."

"Experimental content: test and record the experimenter's clinical response and practical value when stimulated by the No. 03 band signal... Mom, are these guys really human?"

Ye Shi's Adam's apple moved and he swallowed hard.

This thing has practical value...

Aren't they just a bunch of nibblers? !

And maybe the gnawers aren’t awesome yet, at least the latter don’t need supplies and can survive for a long time without eating anything.

Of course, this is not the point.

The point is, just to verify such boring things, they sacrificed this settlement with 50,000 people without hesitation... even though this settlement had surrendered to them long ago.

These guys...

㳔What the hell are you treating people like? ?

etc--

Ye Shi suddenly noticed a detail.

Although the personnel in this research facility have been evacuated, since Plan 03 is also part of the experiment, someone must stay to record and collect the experimental results, right?

Otherwise, wouldn’t the experiment be in vain?

Almost at this moment, a bone-deep cold crawled up his back.

Without enough time to carefully identify where the coldness came from, Ye Shi almost reflexively raised the muzzle of his gun and pointed it at the door, and pulled the trigger without thinking.

Even if there is nothing there!

"Tu tu tu tu—!"

Orange flames spurted out from the muzzle and hit the empty door.

However, a strange scene happened. The hail of bullets seemed to hit a wall of air. Sparks shot out and at the same time, they created circles of transparent ripples.

The outline of the exoskeleton appeared in the air.

After being hit hard by the shuttle, the man staggered backwards, barely able to stand still.

This guy obviously didn't think about it (he was obviously equipped with almost flawless optical camouflage, and he suppressed the sound of his footsteps, but his whereabouts were still discovered.

Barely able to stand still, the man raised his gun and was about to fight back. However, as soon as he pulled the trigger and fired twice, a strong wind blew across his face.

It was a short sword stained with blood.

He almost subconsciously raised his arms to protect his head. Although this action saved his life, it also meant that his arm was stabbed solidly.

"ah--!!"

The blade directly chopped open the exoskeleton protective gear, cut through the skin and flesh, and opened the man's radius bone. He let out a pitiful cry of pain, and blood and sweat poured out.

After pushing the man to the ground, Ye Shi pulled out the short knife with a click, pointed the rifle at the man's head, and grinned ferociously.

"Young man...I was just trying to catch a job, but you came to my door yourself."
