After being saved by his Archer companion, Nine Ears retreated without hesitation, not giving Chen Mo another chance to attack.
Chen Mo did not give up and shot another arrow. However, Nine Ears was like a phantom. While retreating, he also dodged Chen Mo's attack.
Nine Ears' speed was not inferior to Chen Mo's. Chen Mo did not chase after him.
Besides Nine Ears, there were still his companions in front. If there were a few more people and they ambushed him, he would not be able to handle it alone.
The wind tunnel was too narrow. A skill with a slightly wider range would be impossible to dodge.
"Silence, let's chase!
They don't have many people, just two or three!
We are not far from the exit of the wind tunnel. If we chase after them now, they won't have time to prepare! "
However, at this moment, the Golden Phoenix came up and said urgently.
"Let's go!"
Chen Mo did not hesitate after hearing this. He let Ceci Hailow, the humanoid BOSS, lead the way. This way, they would not have to worry about encountering danger.
"Why are you here?" Chen Mo took the time to ask the Golden Phoenix as they chased.
"We heard some interesting news and thought that we might encounter something here. So, we came to try our luck." The Golden Phoenix smiled.
"Interesting news?" Chen Mo was curious.
The Golden Phoenix had high standards. If she said that it was interesting news, then the news must be extraordinary.
Boom!
However, the Golden Phoenix did not have the time to say what the interesting news was. In front of them, there was an arrow that flashed like lightning, fiercely shooting towards them.
This arrow was astonishingly fast. It flashed through the dark wind tunnel, making it impossible to dodge.
However, the arrow was a physical attack. Ceci Hailow moved and blocked in front of them.
She was able to negate most physical attacks. Her HP was also astonishingly high. Although this arrow took away nearly 5,000 of Ceci Hailow's HP, it was still unable to cause any threat to Ceci Hailow.
Other than a group of people attacking, there were very few people who could threaten Ceci Hailow with a single attack.
However, Ceci Hailow's high physical defense and high HP did not cause the Archer in front of them to retreat.
Chi! Chi!
The sound of arrows piercing through the air could be heard. The archer in front had shot several arrows at once, blocking Ceci Hailow's advance.
Moreover, after these three arrows, there seemed to be an endless stream of arrows coming.
Nine Ears and his companions seemed determined to prevent Ceci Hailow from moving forward. They were prepared to continuously shoot arrows at Ceci Hailow. If Ceci Hailow moved forward, they would use this opportunity to kill Ceci Hailow.
Without Ceci Hailow, Chen Mo and the others would not dare to step forward and take their arrows!
"Their archers are amazing!"
The Golden Phoenix's expression was extremely solemn. She was also using the strong bow in her hand to attack the opponent, but she did not know the opponent's position at all. Moreover, the arrows she shot were not as far as the opponent's.
Chi chi …
A few sounds could be heard. Ceci Hailow's body was suddenly hit by several arrows.
Each arrow only caused about 3,000 damage. However, at this moment, Ceci Hailow's HP had decreased by more than 10,000.
At this rate, Ceci Hailow would be killed by the opponent's Archer before she could get close to the enemy and see what the enemy looked like.
Chen Mo and the others continued to give chase. A few more arrows were shot at Ceci Hailow again.
Ceci Hailow was enraged when her HP decreased by more than 20,000.
The Golden Phoenix was behind her. She did not know that the third eye on Ceci Hailow's forehead had suddenly appeared.
Then, the next wave of arrows came. Ceci Hailow waved the two daggers in her hands wildly.
Pa pa pa …
These arrows were all deflected by Ceci Hailow's daggers.
Damn!
Amazing!
The more he looked at Ceci Hailow, the more he felt that she was amazing!
Chen Mo realized that Ceci Hailow could really surprise him continuously. The ability to deflect arrows with her daggers was something that even Chen Mo could not do. He could deflect some of the arrows, but it was impossible for him to do all of them. However, Ceci Hailow could do it almost perfectly.
As she deflected the arrows, Ceci Hailow's speed suddenly increased.
Chen Mo and the other two followed closely behind.
"Stop!"
However, not long after, Chen Mo suddenly stopped Ceci Hailow.
There was a very obvious trap on the road ahead.
The trap had a radius of nearly two meters. It was impossible to avoid this trap in the Wind Tunnel.
There was no trap before. Now that there was a trap, it meant that Nine Ears and the others had come to help.
Chen Mo was a Trap Hunter. He knew that he had to line up the trap before he could move forward.
However, since the other party had a Trap Hunter companion, the road ahead would not be easy.
In a place like this, a Trap Hunter was very useful.
Although they might not be able to kill people, it was very easy for them to block the path of others.
"Go back. The place ahead is not for people from your world!"
Chen Mo was about to line up the trap and move forward, but at this moment, Nine Ears' silent voice came from afar.
Your world?
If one did not pay attention to Nine Ears' words, it would not seem like much. However, Chen Mo suddenly caught an important word in Nine Ears' words.
"Your world?
What do you mean?
Are you saying that you are not from the same world as us? "
Chen Mo was shocked and could not help but ask.
"Hehe, you really don't know anything!
When I was walking around your world, I had this feeling. Now it seems like it is true.
Since you don't know anything, then I won't tell you anything. The less you know, the better it is for us. "
Nine Ears' low chuckle could be heard. When Chen Mo heard it, he could not help but feel a storm in his heart.
Was Nine Ears really from a different world from them?
But was this possible?
Nine Ears' appearance was no different from theirs. He was definitely a human.
Could it be that Nine Ears purposely said these words to confuse him?
That was impossible. If Nine Ears had said these words to other players, who would care about what he said? They would have already rushed up and started a fight.
"It seems that the news is true."
Chen Mo was still thinking about whether Nine Ears' words were true or false. At this moment, the Golden Phoenix said with a bitter smile.
"What news?" Chen Mo looked at the Golden Phoenix.
The two of them had not seen each other for a long time, but after hearing Nine Ears' words, the two of them did not have the emotions of reuniting.
"It's the news that I just mentioned.
My family has some connections. A few days ago, I heard some news. "
The Golden Phoenix thought for a while and said, "It's said that the Genesis game isn't a simple game, but a special virtual world. This virtual world isn't on Earth's server, but in an extremely distant space in the universe.
We players can only enter this virtual world through game helmets, hibernation pods, and other terminals. "
"Enter an extremely distant virtual world?
How is that possible?
Even if it's connected at the speed of light, it can't be done, right? "Chen Mo shook his head. This did not make sense.
They were so far away. Who knew how long it would take for an order to be executed? How could they execute a player's order in real time in the game?
"Of course, I'm not sure about the specific principles. The person who revealed this news did not say.
However, I heard that we used game terminals to build a virtual body. Then, the holographic virtual network used some unknown technology to project the virtual body into this special virtual world, "the Golden Phoenix explained.
Projection of unknown technology?
Thinking about the black technology of the holographic virtual network and hibernation pods, Chen Mo gradually felt that Nine Ears was not bluffing him. The news that the Golden Phoenix received could very well be true.
"If this news is true, every country should be trying their best to hide it. It should be classified as a top secret. Where did you get this news?" Chen Mo asked the Golden Phoenix.
Extraterrestrial civilization. This kind of news could shake the ruler's position in minutes. Every country would definitely try their best to let the public know. It would not be an exaggeration to classify it as the country's top secret. However, the Golden Phoenix knew about this secret. From what she said, it seemed that not only her, but many people she knew also knew about this news.
"Someone deliberately leaked the news!"
The Golden Phoenix replied affirmatively. "This news was only released recently. The country seems to be tracking the source of the news. In the end, they found that the news may be related to the person behind a certain incident."
"A certain incident?"
"When the holographic virtual network was first launched, didn't someone announce a mission to find loopholes in the holographic virtual network?
The person who leaked this news was the same person who announced the mission to find loopholes in the holographic virtual network.
The country had already investigated that person long ago. However, they found that the person who issued the mission did not exist in this world. However, that person had left traces of various activities.
Before today, I always thought that this news was made up by someone out of boredom. However, after listening to this person, I feel that the news should be true! "
A mission to find loopholes in the holographic virtual network?
Chen Mo could not help but ask. He was very familiar with this mission.
He always thought that the person who issued this mission, like him, only wanted to stop the holographic virtual network from coming. However, it seemed that this was not the case at all.
The person who issued the mission had another purpose entirely.
According to the Golden Phoenix, once the holographic virtual network was paralyzed, they would not be able to project into this virtual world. Therefore, the person who issued the mission did not want to make the holographic virtual network unusable, but to prevent them from entering the game world!
Through the Golden Phoenix's words, Chen Mo understood some things. However, there were even more things that he did not understand.
Why did the countries allow such a special game world to appear on Earth?
What benefits could they gain from it?
From the looks of it, this virtual world was just a game world. There was nothing special about it.
Also, what was the purpose of the mysterious person who hired him to carry out this strange mission?
Previously, Chen Mo did not know that there was such an inside story in the game. He only felt that it was strange. Now that he knew this, Chen Mo was sure that the person who hired him to do those things had a special meaning. It was just that he did not know it.
…
He did not rest well last night. His migraine came again. He only updated once today and made up for it tomorrow.
