"So these are the two titles..."
Roger looked relieved, and it was obvious that he was not unfamiliar with these two titles.
The title of [Elite Survivor] is an upgraded version of the title of [Survivor]. It is a title that will inevitably appear in biochemical illusions. It is relatively rare in the early stage when the player's strength is low, and it has become a standard in the later stage.
The second title [Zombie Killer] is an extremely rare hidden title.
Killing 10,000 zombies purely with cold weapons is not difficult, and many high-level players can do it easily. However, if it is limited to 72 hours, then you can only rely on using physical recovery items regardless of the cost.
But then again, spending so many expensive physical recovery items just for a title that can kill cannon fodder zombies in seconds, except for those explorers who are too idle, it is estimated that no player will go for this.
Casually hanging the title of [Elite Survivor] in front of the code name "Nightmare" as a disguise, Roger took a look at the situation of Jia Shuai and the man in sunglasses.
This group of people obviously tasted the sweetness of brushing points. They have been guarding in the swimming pool for the past two days, using the swimming pool as a natural trap to trap and kill batches of zombies.
Under Jia Shuai's organization, their division of labor is very clear.
Several clever and fast-running boys act as bait to attract the zombies. When a certain number of zombies enter the swimming pool, they will be immediately separated from the zombies behind by the rolling shutter door manually controlled by two girls.
Then the boy acting as bait jumped into the pool and climbed up the other side from the ladder on the other side. The zombies that could not make the same climbing action would be trapped in the pool.
At this time, the remaining people can take various weapons and kill the zombies below one by one at the edge of the pool.
Finally, drag the corpses at the bottom of the pool out of the window, and then continue the next cycle.
If they did not need to rest and recover their physical strength in the middle, and it took a certain amount of time to attract monsters and clean up corpses each time, these people's efficiency in killing zombies would be even better than Roger.
Perhaps in order to be honest with each other, the sunglasses man and Jia Shuai and his group did not choose to hide their points, and the accumulated total points of everyone were clearly visible on the scoreboard.
The second place is still the sunglasses man codenamed "Sunglasses", with a cumulative score of 14,230 points.
The third place is "President" Jia Shuai, with a cumulative score of 10,300 points.
The next ones were the boys who were bait. They faced the greatest danger and received much more points than the others, with an average of nearly 3,000 points.
The rest received points ranging from 1,000 to several hundred points according to their job duties. To put it bluntly, it was just a consolation prize to take care of their emotions.
However, whether it was the man with sunglasses or Jia Shuai, they only had the title of [Survivor] before their code names, and it was obvious that the points and the number of personal kills were calculated separately.
…
After killing the last wave of zombies, the man with sunglasses and Jia Shuai did not ask anyone to clean the swimming pool, but summoned everyone to enter the shopping street together.
Thanks to their unremitting efforts day and night in the past two days, most of the zombies on the entire shopping street have been cleared, and the remaining hundreds of zombies are like sesame seeds on a sesame cake, sparsely scattered everywhere in this 100-meter-long street, and basically no longer pose any threat.
Ignoring other shops around, the only target of the group is the "Firepower" gun store located in the center of the shopping street.
"Oh my god! So many guns!"
I couldn't wait to rush into the gun store. Everyone was stunned by the dazzling array of guns in the store. Even the man in sunglasses, who was a veteran player, could not suppress the ecstasy on his face.
Gun is now one of the most popular products in the player market, especially bullets as consumables. The market price is almost half higher than the certified price. As long as it can be brought back to the real world, it will be a 50% net profit.
Jia Shuai had played with guns abroad before and knew some taboos about using guns. He couldn't help but remind loudly: "Be careful! Don't point the gun at your own people! No bullets are allowed!"
The boys' attention was attracted by the various guns full of violent beauty on the shelves at this moment. They didn't care to listen to what Jia Shuai said. They responded casually and perfunctorily, and then happily discussed the parameters and advantages and disadvantages of various guns.
The girls were not as enthusiastic as the boys. They were not very interested in those stupid, big, black and rough rifles and shotguns. Most of them were curiously playing with various small pistols.
The man in sunglasses did not rush to choose a gun. Instead, he searched the gun store carefully to confirm that there were no hidden rooms or secret compartments in the store. He then took a pistol and a shotgun from the shelf and stored them in the storage space after verification. He then exchanged all the remaining points for various types of bullets.
Seeing this, Jia Shuai was thoughtful and followed suit. He also made the same exchange and reminded the others in the team: "One pistol per person. Boys can exchange for one more shotgun depending on their points. The rest are exchanged for ammunition."
The man in sunglasses smiled meaningfully, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. Suddenly, he remembered that he was sitting on a bullet box. Although the explosion might not be big, he took back the lighter he had just taken out out of caution.
Jia Shuai also moved an empty bullet box and sat next to the man in sunglasses. He took out two cans of beer from his backpack like magic.
"Oh? Good stuff!"
The man in sunglasses took it with a smile, pulled the pull ring and took a big sip, with an extremely happy look on his face.
Jia Shuai also opened his can, took a sip, leaned forward with his elbows on his knees, and showed a confused look on his face.
"It feels like a dream, right?"
After all, as a person who has experienced it, the man in sunglasses fully understands Jia Shuai's inner feelings at the moment.
"When I survived the first illusion, I was similar to you now. My three views were shattered and I couldn't put them together. For a long time, I felt that everything I saw was fake... But what does it matter whether it is true or not? The most important thing is that we are still alive."
"Yes, at least we are still alive." Jia Shuai shook the can and whispered softly.
Tu Tu Tu ——!
A sudden roar came from far away. Jia Shuai and the man in sunglasses subconsciously raised their heads and looked through the glass window of the patio above the shopping street. They saw a gray-blue helicopter passing over their heads.
On the fuselage of the helicopter, the red and white umbrella-like logo was clearly visible, and there were three blood-red letters behind it - USS.
"What was that just now?"
Jia Shuai and the man in sunglasses looked at each other, and they both had an ominous premonition in their hearts.
At this moment, the task prompt on the right side of the main interface suddenly changed.
[Abnormal score data detected, balance mode turned on. ]
[Umbrella Special Operations Force USS enters, with 6 team members. ]
[Task objective changed: survive until the end of the mission time or completely destroy the USS team. ]
"f**k!"
Seeing the refreshed task prompt, the man in sunglasses' face changed drastically, and he cursed at the time.
Jia Shuai was stunned: "What's wrong?"
The man in sunglasses raised his hand and interrupted him rudely, shouting to others: "Emergency, take your weapons, bring as many bullets as possible, we must leave here immediately!"
Everyone was busy stuffing bullets into their backpacks. Most of them saw the helicopter just now, and realized the seriousness of the situation through the task prompt, so no one questioned the order of the man in sunglasses.
"Brother Sunglasses, can you tell me what happened?" Jia Shuai picked up a shotgun and followed the man in sunglasses.
"We have been implicated." The man in sunglasses took a deep breath and said while checking the map: "There are many hidden mechanisms to maintain balance in the fantasy, such as high-level players entering low-level fantasy will greatly reduce the points they get, increase equipment certification points, etc...."
"However, since the equipment itself is not restricted by the level of the fantasy, sometimes low-level players will use high-level equipment to brush points."
"The balance mode is equivalent to a patch for this vulnerability. Once a suspected situation occurs, a powerful NPC similar to a BOSS will be generated in the fantasy, indiscriminately attacking all players in the fantasy."
"Obviously, the Nocturne ranked first should be such a cheating player... Most of these people are second-generation players, with one or more powerful senior players as backers behind them. Small shrimps like us can't afford to offend them at all."
"This is unfair! It's obviously someone else who is cheating, why do they attack us too?" A girl with a ponytail complained dissatisfiedly.
Jia Shuai knew that complaining at this moment would not solve the problem. The most urgent thing was to come up with a response plan. He looked at the man in sunglasses who was still frowning and thinking, and asked: "Brother Sunglasses, do you have any ideas?"
"I don't have any ideas for the time being, but I definitely can't fight them head-on... According to the setting, USS is the most elite force of Umbrella Company. In addition to physical fitness and numbers, we have no advantage in equipment or combat experience."
Jia Shuai pondered for a long time, and suddenly said: "Maybe we can return to the safe house to defend."
"No!" The man in sunglasses rejected it decisively, and said in a deep voice: "As a combat team, the other party must have a blaster following them. Once the door of the safe house is blown open, throwing a few cans of tear gas will make us lose our combat effectiveness..."
Jia Shuai smiled confidently.
"That's what I said, but the premise is that they can get the safe house."
