Chapter 465 Self-rescue
"Kang Dang"

The small opening on the iron door closed again. Xiao Kun walked over and picked up the plastic plate that was handed to him.

On top were two pieces of hard bread with very sweet jam, a spoonful of yogurt with chopped nuts, and a small bag of milk.

Looking at these unchanging foods, Xiao Kun felt like crying but had no tears.

I am so stupid. Just knowing that I could enter the legendary "Ming Zun" game, I couldn't wait to log off and show off in the circle of friends, but I didn't expect that there are bad people in this society!

In less than twenty minutes, the masked men pried open the door and broke into the house. They dislocated my arms and blocked my mouth. I was stuffed into a commercial vehicle without being able to resist. I was injected with anesthetic on my neck, and when I opened my eyes, I found myself in this hellhole.

Oh, I should have obeyed the order of the garrison in the chat channel and downloaded the APP to report it when I went offline. What are you bragging about? Is vanity so important? Is the identity of a game player so great?
Now, my life and death are in the hands of these unknown guys. I have to cooperate with them in experiments every day, making myself suffer from life and death.

What should I do from now on! Who are these people? Where is this place? I won’t die here, will I?

Thinking of this, Xiao Kun couldn't bear it anymore and slapped himself hard twice. After a while, he forced himself to put all the food into his stomach.

There is no other way. The official staff in the game said that you must ensure your own physical fitness no matter what and ensure that you are able to act at the critical moment. When the garrison comes to rescue you, you can maximize your chances of escape.

Damn, is this sugar free? Wouldn't your manufacturer lose money by adding so much to jam? What should we do if we get diabetes?
After finally finishing his meal, Xiao Kun lay down on the bed again.

Having stayed in this unknown cell for so long, although there was no clock or window and he could not tell the difference between day and night, he was able to basically summarize the action patterns of these mysterious people here because he could enter the game.

If nothing unexpected happens, there are still about four hours before I am taken out for experiments next time. I can take advantage of this time to log into the game and check on the garrison's rescue progress.

Taking advantage of the laziness after a full stomach, Xiao Kun spent more than ten minutes and finally fell asleep and logged into the game.

Xiao Kun had no intention of attending class or practicing any cultivation techniques. He ran out of the dormitory and came to the Xianlian Sect headquarters of the garrison bureau.

Looking at the queue at the entrance of the base and the sun hanging high in the sky, Xiao Kun quickly analyzed that it should be afternoon in the game, which is midnight in reality.

Xiao Kun naturally didn't need to queue up. He didn't need to hand in or exchange items, nor did he have the mind to learn any extraordinary martial arts. He passed the verification directly, walked through the small door into the yard, turned left and right, and came to an antique room.

There were two other people in the room, a man and a woman, both familiar faces. Like himself, they were poor people who were captured by unknown forces and taken to an unknown place through unknown means.

There were a total of six poor people like them, oh no, eight to be exact. The other two were discovered by the Garrison Bureau during transportation. After realizing that they could not be transported out, the two unlucky guys were killed by people from the mysterious force. Those transportation personnel were also dead soldiers, and the Garrison Bureau did not get many clues.

Not long after, another companion came, and the team leader who was in charge of them at the garrison bureau also walked into the room.

However, just like before, in the face of everyone's hopeful gazes, Team Leader Zhao still shook his head.

"No, there are only more than 200 people in that game group. Even if you check them one by one, it's been almost three months, and you still haven't found anything?" A female player was the first to give in.

The voice was hoarse: "Do you know what they did to me? They opened my head today! My brain was exposed to the air! They also stuck needles in it! Needles!"

Xiao Kun had also gone through this process and felt the same way, but he had already collapsed countless times. Now, on the contrary, he calmed down and just gave her a comforting look.

"I have already explained this question. Although WeChat is a product of our country's communication software company, everyone knows that our country's Internet used a lot of technology from the United States before. It can be said that as long as they want to know the content on WeChat, it is one-way transparent and has little to do with the people in the group. This is also an important reason why the country is now vigorously promoting the Starlink network with its own standards..."

"I don't care! I just want to know when you can rescue us!" The female player was still making trouble: "You have built so many security drones and launched thousands of satellites, but it's useless?"

"We have tried our best." Team Leader Zhao sighed, "But you also know that the international situation is tense now. You are probably all abroad now. We can't send troops to other countries to search them all, right? This will have too much impact."

"What should we do? Are we just going to wait for death?" the female player's voice was desperate.

"I still say that. We will try our best to find it, and you should also provide some help as much as possible, no matter how much, to get some information, even if it is just a leaf or a piece of scenery." Team leader Zhao's voice was helpless: "The most important thing is that you have to find a way to save yourselves."

"Haha? Save yourself? How do you save yourself?" Another male player with big eyes chuckled, "It's not like I haven't tried to continue practicing martial arts, and even learned some of your extraordinary martial arts, but what's the use? No matter how powerful you are in the game, you are still shit in real life!"

He pointed at his neck. "They put an electric shock device on my neck! Twenty-four-hour surveillance! I can't even do a boxing! If I move a little, the electric shock will come! Hiding behind the door and attacking by surprise won't work! Their surveillance cameras have no blind spots at all!"

Xiao Kun also raised his hand and said, "I don't have an electric shock device on my neck, and no one stopped me from practicing martial arts. But every time I go out, they release anesthetic gas, and when I wake up, I'm tied up. There's no room for maneuver!"

"I know everyone is having a hard time, and our Garrison Bureau wants to rescue everyone as soon as possible." Captain Zhao assured: "But this does take time, so please be patient and hold on as long as possible."

"Well...if you really can't hold on, I think you can also try to resist and collect as many clues as possible. After all, according to our analysis, you should have been captured by three different forces. As experimental samples, you are very rare. They should not harm your lives unless it is absolutely necessary."

Hearing these words, Xiao Kun couldn't help but feel disappointed. Oh, it's still the same old three things, no help at all, it seems like today is another day of wasting time...

Just as he was about to get up and leave, Captain Zhao spoke again: "We have just acquired a new extraordinary martial art, which is related to electromagnetic waves. I think it may be helpful to you. Are you willing to try it?"

Electromagnetic waves? Martial arts? Can these two be combined together?
Well, even if they can be combined together, even if this martial art is extremely powerful, what help can it be to us?

In the game, I have a physique at the peak of Hua Jin, and I've also awakened some magical power called tiger claws, which allows me to grow sharp tiger claws from the tip of my fists, and can cut through iron like mud. So what?
The strength in the game cannot be brought into reality. If I had such strength in reality, I would have killed those foreign devils and escaped long ago!

As if he had seen everyone's doubts, Team Leader Zhao explained, "You may not know that extraordinary martial arts can only be produced in martial arts copies, but martial arts copies are not all based on ancient backgrounds. This "Electromagnetic Golden Body Technique" comes from a five-BOSS copy with a modern background."

"According to the introduction of the team that cleared the level, all the monsters and bosses in that dungeon practiced this martial art, but they had practiced it to different levels. What makes this martial art different is that it is not like other martial arts that can release true energy or increase the size. It has a unique function, which is to control metal! It can even control some small electronic devices and electrical products."

"Yes, I know. You will say this is not a supernatural power. No, no, no! According to the research and analysis of our analysis team, it is not. Instead, this martial art can strengthen the body's own bioelectricity, strengthen and expand the body's biomagnetic field, so that people have some control over metals."

"I think if everyone can practice this martial art in real life and have this ability, it will be very helpful for everyone to escape from prison."

"Is it true?" The male player spoke again: "I have tried extraordinary martial arts, and I also learned the easiest "Six Void Skills". It is indeed possible to get started in the game, but not in reality. The biological vitality is not enough, and there is no image to observe and comprehend. I practiced secretly for two months, but it was useless. Your electromagnetic secret, will it be easier to get started?"

"That's not the case." Team Leader Zhao explained, "In fact, according to the analysis team, this 'Electromagnetic Golden Body Technique' is the most difficult extraordinary martial art to learn so far. But the reason is not because it is difficult to practice, or difficult to sense electromagnetic waves, but because there are no supporting high-tech facilities."

He explained in detail: "This martial art is different from other martial arts. It does not have those magical scrolls that can make people feel it. It contains many drawings of various high-tech equipment, such as the biomagnetic field agitator, which is an indispensable equipment for practicing this martial art. Moreover, it is difficult for the human body to perceive electromagnetic waves. When entering this martial art, you must wear a special electromagnetic wave sensing helmet..."

"As everyone knows, this map is an ancient map of immortal cultivation. There is no condition to manufacture these devices. They can only be manufactured in reality. Currently, the research institute in reality is also conducting research in this area. It should be soon that a prototype will be developed and the first experiment will be carried out."

After listening for a long time, Xiao Kun couldn't help but said, "No, you said so much, what help can it give us? In our current situation, can we still go to your research institute to get the helmet for experiment? Even if this martial art can be practiced in reality, we can't practice it!"

"You don't have the conditions, but those foreign forces studying you may have them!" Team Leader Zhao proposed a plan: "If you memorize the blueprints in the game and draw them in real life, can they resist making it?"

"Moreover, even if they create it, without the corresponding martial arts training method, even if they put on the helmet and sense the electromagnetic waves, they can't practice it! But you are different! You can practice according to the martial arts method, become stronger, and even master the ability to control metal and destroy some small electrical appliances! By then, you may be able to escape!"

"Of course, this plan still has many risks. For example, how to trick the other party into making the equipment, how to give yourself the right to use the equipment, how to secretly practice to become stronger, and whether the final effect of the practice can allow you to fight against an enemy equipped with modern firearms. These problems require everyone to find ways to solve them appropriately."

"What are you waiting for! Hurry up and give me the blueprint! I'll recite it now!" The big-eyed male player shouted immediately: "I'm going to kill them all! Kill them all! Kill them all!"

"Not yet." Captain Zhao shook his head: "This plan is still under discussion, and the higher-ups haven't made a formal decision yet. We have to wait for a while."

"What are we waiting for?" another female player also shouted, "They are almost killing me! You guys are still discussing this? What the hell!"

"There's nothing we can do. After all, this kind of extraordinary martial arts that can be practiced in reality is of great importance." Captain Zhao often communicates with mentally unstable people like them and has long been accustomed to it.

His voice remained steady. "We have calculated that even if ordinary martial arts are practiced to the innate level, they cannot deal with security drones with high-energy laser beams. However, this kind of martial arts that can control metal and affect small electronic components is still too dangerous and has a lot of uncertainty. If this technology spreads to other countries, it may have an impact on some of our country's subsequent strategic arrangements."

"What's there to be afraid of? Are we going to leak the martial arts training methods to those foreign devils?" The big-eyed male player was furious: "Even if they kill me, I won't give it to them! I hope they are all dead!"

"It's not so easy to decide whether to tell or not." Captain Zhao still looked as steady as a rock. "Who knows how advanced the truth serum they have is? Besides, it's not that I don't trust you. Even in the revolutionary era, there were many people who couldn't stand the enemy's torture and eventually betrayed and informed on the secrets. Even I can't guarantee that I wouldn't collapse and betray you in that situation."

I’m fed up with this feeling of giving people hope and then taking it away!

"Then when can it be given to us?" Xiao Kun managed to remain rational.

"We need to wait for the research institute to make a prototype, and then conduct multiple rounds of tests in reality to test the actual effect of this martial art. Once we confirm that it does not pose too much of a threat to us, it should be open to everyone." Team Leader Zhao told the truth.

"How long exactly will it take?" Xiao Kun continued to ask.

Team Leader Zhao thought for a moment and said, "If we are optimistic, it will take another half a year."

"What? Half a year? I don't even know if I'm dead or not after half a year!" The female player started to wail again: "I might as well just die!"

Xiao Kun didn't want to die. He still had a newlywed wife, a child who just called him dad, elderly parents who needed to be supported, and too many things he hadn't done. He even wanted to truly experience this magical game world.

Half a year? That's such a long time...

Then hold on for another half a year!
