The Age of Machines

Chapter 972 Broken

Liu Xin was taken aback.

Then he stared blankly at Neuer, temporarily forgetting to respond.

What... what does this mean?
Neuer said softly: "Cooperate with me."

What?
But hearing the sound of footsteps, Neuer looked away from Liu Xin and looked displeasedly at the person coming. "Hei Na, what are you doing here?"

Liu Xin gradually returned to her senses, and her eyes shifted to the person who came.

Neuer called him Hei Na.

Liu Xin always felt that the name seemed familiar.

"Oh? It seems to disturb you?" Hei Na teased, looking at the posture of the two.

Liu Xin struggled after being reminded like this.

Neuer grabbed her hands and pressed them on the carpet slightly, lowered his head and said in displeasure: "I said, let you settle down. If you don't obey, be careful and I will kill you."

The two looked at each other.

Liu Xin recalled what this man told her to ask her to cooperate.Speaking of which, this person is now playing the role of a seemingly loyal monster, but actually needs to issue missions secretly.If it is found to be abnormal now, it is estimated that Neuer's mission will also be considered a failure.

Since this task was added temporarily, the previous programming could not be changed immediately, so the game company came up with these methods to stabilize the situation.

It doesn't matter if the mission fails.It's just that this person probably has to deduct his salary or something...

Moreover, the player has no time to complete the task after delaying it later.

Liu Xin struggled, showing a disgusted expression.

"You monster, let me go! Don't touch me with your dirty hands!"

"Shut up. I'll kill you again!"

Hei Na watched from the side, and said helplessly, "What are you doing? What are you talking about with a human woman? If you don't listen, just kill her."

Neuer looked up at him, frowned and said, "What are you doing here?"

"Let me see what human beings are so interested in you, keep you in the tent, and see what you are up to."

Neuer pulled the rope aside and tied up Liu Xin.Sitting up and looking at Hei Na, he said, "It's none of your business, you're hindering me."

Hei Na stroked his chin, "You don't really want to mate with this human, do you?"

Liu Xin: ...

Neuer coughed, this word is really obscene. "Hei Na, are you too busy?"

Hei Na laughed.

"I just treated her as a pet for fun. When I got tired of playing with her, I would kill her naturally. Human beings, lowly creatures, are not qualified to breed children of our demon race."

Hei Na raised his eyebrows, "You are enlightened. I just heard that you brought a human back, so I came to see it. Now is the critical period for attacking the orc tribe. Don't make any troubles. Be optimistic about this human."

"Got it, got it." Neuer said impatiently. "Go out you."

Hei Na cast a glance at Liu Xin, "Then you should be careful, if there is any sign of escape, kill him. Don't be soft-hearted."

"Are you insulting me?"

"I'm just telling the truth."

"Huh? Get out quickly. Don't come in if you have nothing to do!"

Wait for someone to leave.

Neuer exhaled.

Turning around, Liu Xin looked at him with a black face.Neuer coughed, "That...you have to pretend a bit."

"One mouthful and one human being is low, isn't it awkward for you to say it yourself?"

Neuer laughed dryly, and untied Liu Xin from the rope.

Liu Xin was free and rubbed her wrist, and asked: "The status of the monster seems not low."

Neuer took out the map, "If you in the mechanical age must help the orc tribe to the end, you will fight him later."

Liu Xin glanced at him. "I told Liu Xin about you."

Neuer was taken aback.

Liu Xin said: "But don't worry, my brother is very strict with his mouth. It's just that I said that he will feel very strange when he receives the task. And the president seems to have guessed something."

"what?"

Liu Xin repeated Beixi's words.

Neuer swallowed dryly, Beixi is really scary.The boss kept telling him not to have direct contact with him, and now he understands this.

It feels like they know more about the composition of the game than their insiders.

"It's just me now, brother Liuxin, the president knows about your existence. Anyway, I won't talk nonsense, so don't worry."

Neuer thought to himself, what else can he do after the girl has said everything.Anyway, I won't see it after this time.

"I'm relieved when you say that. If rumors spread, it won't be easy for me."

"Don't worry."

Neuer looked at her, "Hurry up and memorize the route. Then tell your president. I have to send you out, and start running for your life along the way."

"(⊙o⊙) If you are killed by a monster, will my mission also fail?"

"Well. Not only that, the orc tribe will also face genocide. Although I am [GM], but now I am only playing the role of a monster, and I don't have many rights. Once you leave, I can only hide it for an hour. After an hour , the monster’s attack plan will change. The mastermind follows the program, and if there is a change, the mastermind will also give a plan to deal with it. Now the player’s growth level has not reached the standard...all this is beyond the control.”

Liu Xin looked at him, "You tell me so much, will nothing happen?"

Neuer smiled and said: "If you don't tell it, they won't know."

"Are you sure I won't tell you?"

"I just think you are quite trustworthy."

Liu Xin curled her lips, "As long as the portal of darkness is destroyed, can the progress of the monster be stopped?"

"Ah."

"This task is quite difficult." Liu Xin said.

There are a total of ten dark portals distributed in the area outside the orc tribe.

If they want to prevent the monster from attacking the city, of course they must directly break the portal that the monster's reinforcements ride.Without the new combat power, if the monsters on the field are eliminated, we can survive today.

If the monster wants to fight again tomorrow.

Their reinforcements can also arrive at noon, and they will definitely be able to save the orc tribe by then.

Just get through today.

"I didn't let you complete it alone. You only need to go back safely with the task, and as long as you destroy the Dark Portal before evening, you can win."

"Why before evening?"

"When the time comes, if the orc tribe has not been defeated, the hidden condition will be triggered."

After a quick pause, "Dark wizard?"

"Well. That's something players can't deal with right now."

"Why do you say you set it up like this?"

Neuer touched his nose and said helplessly: "The coming of the dark year, in fact, even the company did not expect it. The player who triggered the set conditions, I don't know whether to say he is lucky or unlucky. But as far as our company is concerned, because he Gotta clean up a bunch of mess..."

"That's because you are not rigorous enough."

"But the trigger condition is to be in a certain map at level 140. Half a month ago, no one reached level 130 in the entire game."

Liu Xin was surprised, "Then why is that player..."

"It can only be called luck. The original setting is that it will be triggered when the player reaches level 130 five or six. According to the normal development sequence, it will take half a year later."

Neuer sighed. "The players are really... You must know that the most unpredictable thing in the game is your player's actions. At that time, I thought that after finishing the competitive game, I could almost open the expansion pack, so the company opened up the map. No think…"

Unexpectedly, a certain player was randomly teleported to that map just because of luck, and became the first player to be demonized, starting the Dark Years.

Not to mention that the official did not give a notice, so that the players were rushed to the battlefield without any preparation, but the official itself had to be kicked out of the process because of that player.

"Now all the actions of the monsters are in accordance with the previously set procedures. However, because it was too sudden, the level of the players did not reach the standard value we set, and we are also rushing ducks to the shelves... So I A kind of artificial NPC appeared. Now, it is dragging the process and slowing down the progress of the entire expansion.”

Otherwise, this expansion will end in less than half a year according to this situation, and there will only be one result.The mainland is ruled by monsters, and all players are demonized.

Liu Xin was also deeply moved when he heard it.

"Which player's name is convenient to disclose?"

For that unlucky player, Liu Xin was quite curious.

Neuer rubbed his nose, "It's inconvenient. It involves player privacy, and our company has regulations."

Liu Xin shrugged, "Okay. It's not too difficult. I wrote it down, and now I will contact the president and the others. By the way, you said in the evening, can you give me a specific time?"

"17 point."

Liu Xin clicked on the interface information to see the timetable in the lower left corner.

It is now 14:21.

Running out of time!
14 points.

At this time, outside the orc tribe, orc warriors and monsters are in a bitter battle.

The NPC's battle did save the situation at the beginning.

However, with the continuation of the non-stop attrition war, even the orc NPC cannot withstand the consumption of high-level bosses.And, every 15 minutes, a high-level boss will appear, and the number will increase as the number increases.

When it was increased to eight high-level monsters fighting together, the powerful elite NPCs also began to lose.

one, two...

When the sixth one died, Beixi and the others listened to the battle report without any expressions of regret or sympathy.

This battle will continue without a break.Just like when they were facing monster siege at that time, as the high-level boss appeared to a certain value, the lord monster would come.

Only one lord appeared in the back of them at that time.As for the orc tribe, if one wants to destroy a race, at least it will not be lower than two lords.

even more.

Player deaths began to increase again.

Beixi also received a private chat from Liu Xin at this time.Beixi has always believed that the time of the dark year is very bad.The behavior of the game manager who is with Liu Xin now seems to be more certain of Beixi's thinking.

"What's wrong?" Wei Shengmo noticed that Bei Xi's expression was strange.

"There is news from Liuxin. The task she received mentioned that the monsters will have a big action at 17:[-] in the evening. And now she has got the location of several dark doors. We need to find out at this time Inside, destroy the portal of darkness."

"Did you say it was a big move?"

Bei Xi thought for a while, "It should be a wizard." In fact, Liu Xin told her very clearly, but it involved the identity of the GM.Beixi can't go into too much detail, so as not to arouse everyone's suspicion.

"Wow, this is going to be difficult. If a wizard really appears, it will be difficult for us to escape."

"So now we have to find a way to pull the front line to the snowy field. We have to fight out. Only then can we take action..."

Pressed to the junction of the snowfield and the grassland?
The players of the orc tribe should be stronger, and the command must be given to them.In this way, Beixi can command some NPCs to fight flexibly and fight out.

"We can also take the teleportation array directly to the snowfield." Ning Que said suddenly.

"I didn't say that the gates of darkness are all in the snowfield..." Beixi frowned. "Liu Xin told me a few routes, two of which are in the snowfield, and the other is in the west and east of the grassland, as well as in the past maps of the triangle area."

"If we act, we must divide these hundreds of people into several teams, and destroy the Dark Portal at the same time."

"But President, at present, only you can destroy the Dark Portal."

Beixi said: "The NPC revealed to Liu Xin the weakness of the Dark Portal. As long as you pour holy water on the magic circle, the crystal's defense will be weakened. It's not me, you can also cause great damage to the crystal."

"Is there still such an operation?"

Peacock said at this time: "If we want to divide into teams, will our number be too small? There are millions of monsters in the places we want to go. If the orc tribe can't get out, we can only destroy the snowfield The portal over there."

Can't go anywhere else at all.

After all, their players can't fight, and Beixi and the others can't complete this task.

Everyone couldn't help but fell silent.

At this moment, a large piece of purple light appeared in the sky, and even the orc tribe could detect the strangeness.The rumbling sound resounded, and Beixi and the others were shocked by the thunder, and looked up at the sky.

Unusual prominence.

"Lord?"

At this time, the team members who were in charge of monitoring the situation on the orc battlefield hurried to their side.

"President, the lord has appeared."

The screams began to ring out incessantly.

Beixi and the others don't need to go to the city gate to see the situation, they can also imagine what the outside looks like now.

Orc NPCs kept coming out of the city gate.

10 minutes passed.

Beixi and the others were still sitting in the camp without moving.

At this time Wei Shengmo stood up suddenly, holding the dagger in his hand, leaving only a shadow.In less than two seconds, there was a "bang" and the heavy object fell to the ground.

Everyone looked at it one after another.

It was the corpse of a monster.

"Monsters are starting to appear here?"

Then it means that the monster has pushed the team to fight under the city gate.

Maybe the city gate is in a broken state now.

Still not coming?
Bei Xi fiddled with the weapon before he lost his mind.

The sound of hurried footsteps approached from far away.

Beixi raised her eyes.

The anxious faces of a group of NPCs came into view.

"What's the matter? Everyone looks anxious."

Bei Xi got up and asked knowingly.

"Human brave, we need your help." An elder spoke first.

Beixi looked at Rez.

"Then I'll get straight to the point?"

Rez said in a deep voice, "Say."

"I want the right to command your elite troops."
