This Game is Too Real

Chapter 298: Past, present, Future

   Chapter 298 Past, Present, Future

"Ready to fight!"

At the same time as the    voice fell, the five tacitly spread out to the surrounding bunkers.

Old Bai rushed into the building on the street, kicked open the half-closed door, put the rectangular box containing the fuel rods in a safe place, then loaded the sickle assault rifle in his hand, and quickly approached window.

The    action is done in one go.

   "Get to the location!"

  “+1”

   "I'm fine too!"

   They have done this kind of cooperation countless times. According to the green dot on the VM map, the five-person team spread out evenly around the building, controlling all possible directions.

   There are almost no dead spots!

The members of the    Bull and Horse Squad waited nervously for the battle to begin.

   However, after a long time, the street was still silent.

   Still no sound.

  Quan, who was standing in the front row with Lao Bai, held his breath and carefully observed his surroundings.

   But apart from the vines gently swaying by the window and the leaves swaying in the breeze, there was no visible movement on the whole street.

Is    an illusion?

   Just as this thought came to mind, there was a swooshing sound from the top of my head.

   Before everyone could pronounce it, something exploded above their heads.

boom--!

   Standing behind the half-collapsed concrete wall, Ye Shi was stunned.

   "Fuck?! Mortar!"

   In fact, the combat efficiency of mortars in street fighting is very poor. There are bunkers everywhere, and the damage range of fragments will be extremely limited.

   However, the other side didn't seem to realize this, and fired three more shells at them.

  These shells exploded in the air without exception, and they were all twenty meters away from them!

   "And it's an empty bomb..." Gu Feng frowned, glanced at the signal on the VM screen, then quickly glanced out the window, his eyes narrowed slightly.

   The tiny fibers fell slowly from the air, like the cilia on a dandelion.

   That is the culprit of blocking the signal!

   "It's a jammer!"

   Ye Shi's scolding could be heard in the distance.

   "Fuck! I just said why the drone can't move!"

The latest "Type 5" light cavalry exoskeleton sold in the NPC shop is not only equipped with a tactical helmet with goggles, but also includes a small slap-sized, shoulder-mounted close-range reconnaissance drone that can share its field of vision with itself or Teammate's helmet eyepiece.

   But now.

   Drones are meaningless.

   Not only Ye Shi's drone was useless, but the "Y-1 Firefly" quadrotor in the strong wind also lost its function.

  Old Bai turned on the speaker of his helmet and shouted loudly.

   "Ye Shi, look for the commanding heights, find out the observers and knock them out! Quit smoking and follow me, we'll find a way to bring their mortars!"

The advantage of   's language barrier is fully revealed at this moment. They can't understand the NPC's words, and the same NPC can't understand their communication.

"receive!"

   Quit smoking and was about to get up, but at this moment, a thick and long flame suddenly shot out from the window directly across the street, and bullets shot down like raindrops.

   A piece of debris exploded on the concrete slope, so frightened that Quit smoking hurriedly buried his head and hid behind the bunker, moving short amid the chaotic gunfire.

   Seeing that his teammates were suppressed by fire, Lao Bai immediately raised his rifle and shot at the window in front of him to cover his teammates' transfer.

   At the same time, there were also dense gunshots from the other side of the street.

   There is a strong wind and a long direction!

  Old Bai frowned.

   These people's fighting literacy is not like a rogue team!

At least--

   Much better trained than those raiders!

   "Free to fire!"

   shouting loudly, Lao Bai emptied the last shuttle in the magazine towards the window across the street, put on a new magazine and started to move out of the bunker.

   The mortar on the opposite side continued to fire, and soon the signal in this block would be completely isolated from the outside world. Ye Shi is moving towards the heights, and the area above the 20th floor should be able to restore communication with the shelter.

   At the same time, Fang Chang and Gu Feng were already facing each other.

The    team of four approached from their flanks and just hit them in the face, the spray of gunfire flickered and moved in the narrow alley, and the whole street was splashed with gravel and debris.

   There is no communication between the two parties.

   A fierce exchange of fire broke out in the silence.

   Two shots were shot in the chest, but fortunately they were blocked by the bulletproof plate. Fang Chang gritted his teeth and let go of the PU-9 submachine gun that shot empty bullets.

   Bullet time!

   The dust splashes suddenly slowed down.

   The whole world is slowing down together.

   Including himself!

   locked the figure in the smoke, he pulled the bowstring at the fastest speed, and released his fingers.

  The bowstring vibrated at a frequency visible to the naked eye, and the three-edged arrow, which was fully charged, disappeared into the smoke as fast as lightning.

  At the same time, the bullet time is lifted!

  嗖——

   The chest of the shadow collided with an arrow shot by Fang Chang, and with a groaning, he fell back to the ground.

   Seeing the jet-black armor on the man's body, Fang Chang's eyes flashed with surprise.

   Who are these people? !

  …

   reached out and dragged the teammate who fell to the ground with the arrow back to the back of the bunker. Dimit, who was holding an assault rifle in his hand, was also full of surprise.

   is not surprised by the identities of these people, their goals are clear, and they know who these people are. However, to his surprise, the equipment and combat awareness of these people completely exceeded their expectations.

   Pre-war police exoskeleton!

   Where did they get these goodies! ?

   But whoever they are, don't even try to slip away from here today!

   "The left lung was penetrated! LaVine is dying!" the medics who dealt with the wounded shouted.

   "Hemostatic spray! Quick! Help him treat the wound first!"

   "These savages...are actually using bows and arrows?!" As soon as a soldier finished speaking, a shuttle of submachine gun bullets swiped over his head and flew past him, so frightened that he hurriedly ducked back.

   "Don't underestimate them!" Demeter shouted loudly, "The bow in that person's hand is weird!"

  Aiming aid for helmets?

   or electronic eye?

   This reaction speed is a bit outrageous!

   Especially before this group of people actually saw through their ambush in advance, which made him unexpected.

  Their exoskeletons can block the heartbeat and 90% of the heat source, so even the intuition-type awakeners wouldn't find them at such a long distance, right? !

   Dimit tore off a fragmentation grenade from his waist, but before he could pull the ring off, a swooshing sound exploded above his head at the same time as the explosion.

   Hundreds of steel **** exploded from the arrow and swept across a cylindrical surface. They were caught off guard when they were hiding behind the cover.

  Thanks to their exoskeletons preventing the flying shrapnel, otherwise this arrow would be enough to kill and injure most of them.

  Dimit didn't dare to take it lightly, and immediately clenched his fists and signaled to two teammates who could still fight to spread out the surrounding ruins on both sides, bypassing the opponent's dense firepower area.

   At the same time that the group was shocked, Fang Chang’s face who shot the arrow was also full of surprise.

   Is it okay to be hit by a burst arrow from him?

   Good guy.

   Then come again!

   Without hesitation, he pulled out another bursting arrow worth 50 silver coins and put it on the bowstring. Fang Chang was about to charge up to shoot when the wind next to him patted him on the shoulder.

   "They're here!"

   Fang Chang's expression changed slightly, and he made a decisive decision.

   "Fall back!"

  …

  B4 floor browsing room of Vault 404.

  The digital screen by the wall is simulating the fire of the fireplace, making a soothing crackling sound.

   The environment here is really good.

The only disadvantage of    is that it is easy to forget day and night.

  Chu Guang did not go outside to inspect today, but sat on the soft sofa, flipping through the popular science books he had taken from the bookshelf.

   The name of the book is "Past, Present, Future".

Although some of the things mentioned in    are only superficial descriptions, they still make Chu Guang an eye-opener.

   "As early as the 20th year of the Prosperity Era, the research ship of the People's Federation has explored all the planets in the solar system and started the exploration plan of Nanmen II."

   "Until the 30th year of the Prosperity Era, the Nanmen Second Exploration Plan has been initially completed, and the first colonial ship of the People's Alliance has successfully left the port..."

   "Nanmen 2 should be 4.24 light years away from the earth."

   "Is this mastering superluminal travel?"

   When his eyes stopped on a certain line of description in the book, the expression on Chu Guang's face was a little weird.

   "...A gravitational bond?"

  According to the description in the book, during the Age of Prosperity, physicists from the People's Federation discovered that there was a "gravitational bond" between two massive celestial bodies.

   And aerospace engineers call it a "gravitational channel."

Although it takes hundreds or even thousands of years to fly from the solar system to other galaxies in the classical motion mode, no matter what the spacecraft uses to accelerate, if the gravitational channel is used, the spacecraft only takes a relatively short time. "jumps" between two massive star systems.

   Generally speaking, the time spent on transition is proportional to the mass of the spacecraft and the distance of the celestial body, and inversely proportional to the mass of the celestial body, and there is a specific formula that can be calculated.

  According to this formula, jumping between the solar system and the South Gate II system will actually be faster than jumping between Earth and Mars.

  Yes, there are many gravitational channels.

   can exist between star systems and star systems, between individual planets in a star system, and even between star clusters and star clusters. It's just that almost 99.99% of the gravitational channels, even if they exist, are useless due to the jumping point problem.

Fortunately, the physicists of the People's Federation solved this problem. They not only figured out a method to determine the course of the gravitational channel, but also summed up the formula for calculating the jumping point, so that the People's Federation can use the gravitational channel for "hyperspace navigation". became possible.

   And this also laid the foundation for the continuation of the Prosperity Era.

  Controlled fusion solves the problem of energy, and the discovery of gravitational channels makes colonization outside the solar system possible, and solves the two problems of matter and living space at the same time.

  The human civilization also ushered in the first "ascension", taking the first step from the interstellar native to the star sea overlord.

   To be honest, this popular science book has written this content like a cool text.

   Probably considering that the audience of popular science stories are children, the colonial cabin heading for South Gate 2 is literally depicted as a paradise on earth.

   As for now...

   is more like after the calamity failed.

   Not only was "the skill completely useless", but the whole human association was completely destroyed.

  Chu Guang now somewhat understands Yin Fang's feelings.

   The more you know, the easier it is to feel lost about the future.

   "Nima..."

   "It would be better if we traveled a hundred years earlier!"

   If you don’t understand, ask, is it too late to drink fake wine now?

According to the description of the book "Past, Present, Future", if you travel to the early or even middle stage of the Prosperous Era, as long as you don't commit "time travel" or "want to go to the future" in the dormant capsule, you will die. The collapse of the prosperous world may not necessarily be seen.

  Chu Guang turned a page back.

It is a pity that this popular science book does not give a detailed explanation of the "gravitational bond", just like most popular science books in the parallel world do not fully post the derivation process of the theory of relativity, but generally summarize it as "Finding Shortcuts from Hyperspace".

  Hyperspace Chu Guang still knows a little bit, which literally means multi-dimensional space.

   And this is what surprised him the most.

   In "modern physics", force is usually explained as the process of collision between the particles that make up matter and the particles that transmit the force. Under such a framework, the four fundamental forces, except gravity, can be interpreted and calculated consistently, and are consistent with the experimental results.

   This is the "standard model".

   is also the cornerstone of modern physics.

   However, this model is not perfect. Just like Newton's classical mechanics cannot explain the motion law of massive celestial bodies, this model also has the limitations of the times - it cannot be perfectly compatible with gravity.

  So someone proposed "string theory". Under the theoretical framework of this conjecture, the three fundamental forces are explained as open strings, and gravity is explained as closed strings.

   Based on this conjecture, gravity can span all dimensions.

   The physics of the two worlds seem to be connected?

Although    is only one conclusion of two sets of theories.

   Staring at the line-by-line description in his hand, Chu Guang suddenly thought of the part about the morphogenesis field mentioned in the previously unlocked recordings on the B2 floor.

   "...There can be gravitational bonds between star clusters, so is there a similar bond between the universe and the universe?"

   The mass of the universe is unclear. This thing is like oil reserves. With the advancement of exploration technology, it may "dig more and more".

   But assuming that the mass and distance of the two universes are infinite, Chu Guang tried to bring in the simplified formula mentioned in the popular science book, and the mass of the spacecraft m obtained was infinitely small.

   In other words, according to the theory of "gravitational bond", even if there is such a bond between two parallel worlds, even a single quark cannot be allowed to pass through the middle.

   But what if it is a particle with a "rest mass of 0"?

   Such as photons.

  The transmission of information requires a carrier, and being able to exchange the carrier means that the transmission of information is possible. As for what this medium is, I am afraid that only physicists in the era of the People's Federation can answer.

   "The morphogenetic field that connects parallel worlds might well be based on a similar theory."

   "How is the parallel world positioned?"

  Chu Guang gently closed his eyes and digested the knowledge he had just absorbed for a moment.

  20 points of intelligence played a little role.

  If he was not a manager, he might have become a shocking physicist in a parallel world on Earth.

   At least the content of this book, if he updates the database on the official website, is enough to set off an earthquake in the physics community of the parallel world.

   Maybe even get a Nobel Prize.

   But this is ideal.

  The Earth in the parallel world does not have the ability to verify these theories, and the superficial descriptions in popular science books are not enough to be used as rigorous scientific conclusions, at most as a "correct direction".

   As for himself, there is a high probability that he will be regarded as the messenger of "higher civilization", and this popular science book will also be regarded as evidence of "higher civilization's goodwill enlightenment to earth civilization".

   Then here comes the problem.

   How many silver coins does this book sell for?

   Thinking of Brother Gufeng in the server, Chu Guang's mouth couldn't help but twitch into a smile.

   "Upgrade well."

   "When you help this administrator revive the People's Federation, I'll give you the title of Chief Physicist of the Local Federation. How about I give you a few Nobel Prizes by the way?"

Of course.

   If you can't stand it, don't blame your brother.

  Chu Guang turned a page with a wicked smile, and at this moment, Xiao Qi's voice suddenly came from the side.

"Owner."

"What's wrong?"

   "Your Burning Corps signal disappeared from the map."

  What the hell? !

   With a shock, Chu Guang quickly closed the book in his hand and threw it aside. Without a word, he picked up the tablet on the table and opened the map.

   Five green dots have disappeared from the east area of ​​Qingquan City.

"system!"

   A light blue window appeared in front of him. Chu Guang directly cut to the player list and saw the online icons of several players, and he was relieved slowly.

   It's only the radio communication that is disconnected, not the morphogenetic field!

  The clones are still alive!

   should be some kind of signal jamming device, blocking their signal.

  Although there is a possibility of an accident, the safety of the fuel rods is related to whether Vault 401 can be used or not, and no accident is allowed in this matter.

   Only took a second to make a judgment. Chu Guang stretched out his index finger and tapped on the tablet, and clicked the "pre-edited" task command to send.

   "Let the Mosquito plane go over and take a look!"

   Xiaoqi's energetic voice came.

"okay!"

   At the same time, the runway north of Dawn City.

   A wooden plane turned the propeller and slowly opened the hangar door.

   Mosquito, who was teaching some of his apprentices how to operate a glider a minute ago, jumped into his own car and fastened the pilot cap made of dog skin on his head.

  The two machine guns on the plane have been replaced from 7mm small water pipes to 10mm Maxim-II, and the entire wood glider has completely changed from a reconnaissance aircraft to a ground attack aircraft.

   Mosquito painted a shark tooth on the nose of the machine with paint, and the whole nose looked like a shark with a big mouth.

  Although the skin does not add attack power, it looks cool.

  Look at the future, who would dare to say that he licks the ground like urinating!

   "Practice by yourself! You can do whatever you want except don't go to heaven!"

  The four training machines are not equipped with weapons, so it is useless even if they go up.

   However, upon hearing this, the four apprentices were instantly unhappy.

  Deadly: "左!"

   Chasing Soul: "Why are you eating alone again!"

   Killing God: "Come down and I'll drive!"

   Persuade: "%¥#@!"

   "Googling, I can do serious tasks for you? Go to the real world and get a certificate first!"

   Killing: "How do you have evidence?!"

   Mosquitoes didn't beep much, hey hey smiled and pushed the switch to the bottom, pulled up the joystick at the moment of reaching the take-off speed, and lowered the helmet's goggles at the same time.

   The task is simple.

  Cruising in the eastern district of Qingquan City, searching for signals from Laobai and the others.

   If you find an accident, support it.

   If safe, scout their direction before running out of energy.

   Intuition tells Mosquito that this kind of task is generally brushed out, and the second case can basically be ignored. Don't even think about it, 80% of the time it's really happening!

   The entire squad disappeared from the map.

   The backing of the enemy is probably not small!

  The whole body is surging with blood, and although there is still a distance of more than ten kilometers, the mosquito's index finger has already touched the insurance to open fire.

   "Brother Moe!"

"wait for me!"

  …

   East District, Qingquan City.

   The sound of gunfire was like firecrackers.

  Let Qui-Smoker stay in place to contain the machine gun on the opposite side, and Lao Bai, who went around to the flank, planned to get rid of that pesky mortar first.

   However, when he got to the position, he realized that things were far from being as simple as he thought.

   I saw a heavy exoskeleton standing in the center of the flower bed of the community, with two armored arms supporting the ground, like a run-up posture, the gun barrels raised on the back continued to fire.

   Every time a cannonball is fired, a piece of dust will shake on the ground.

   What the **** is a mortar.

   is clearly an exoskeleton version of self-propelled artillery!

  The three exoskeleton soldiers guarding around the "self-propelled artillery" found Lao Bai the moment he appeared, and without a word, raised their rifles and fired over.

   was almost swept away, and Lao Bai, who was hiding behind the residential building, immediately put his gun out of the bunker and returned fire.

   However, the opponent was obviously not a vegetarian. The three assault rifles fired at the same time, and the fierce firepower suppressed him.

  The three soldiers wearing exoskeletons didn't stop there, they cooperated tacitly and dispersed into a triangle, and they fired alternately and advanced towards him.

   Looking at the cracks in the bulletproof plate of his left arm, Lao Bai gritted his teeth and changed the magazine, and started to move towards the half-collapsed building next to him.

   There was no signal in the whole area. It should be the dust of the jamming bomb that was blown over. Now he doesn't even know whether his teammates are dead or alive.

   Fortunately, the gun barrel on the back of the heavy exoskeleton has ceased fire, and the pressure on them can be a little less.

   "Damn... Where did these people come from!?"

   Could it be that Fangchang’s smashing and shipping was targeted by the plan?

   Not so much, right? !

   They are not the only ones cutting leeks.

   Just when Lao Bai was secretly surprised, a gunshot sounded in the distance.

  The three exoskeleton soldiers who were chasing after him, one of them was shot sideways, the bulletproof plate cracked, and his body was short and almost fell to the ground.

The teammates next to    immediately dragged the man and pulled him into the bunker next to him. Due to the deterrence of sniper rifles, they did not dare to come out of the bunker, and could only detour from the ruins with a narrow view.

"pretty!"

  Old Bai was overjoyed. He didn't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He immediately counterattacked and suppressed them who were about to detour.

   The two sides are in a stalemate!

   Leaning against each other against cover with cold guns.

   However, what made Lao Bai's heart sink is that the "self-propelled artillery" started to fire again.

   And this shell directly hit him ten meters to the side!

   As a last resort, Lao Bai could only give up the suppression of the three exoskeleton soldiers and withdrew to the building across the street from the community.

   Crouching behind the bunker, Ulun changed the magazine, gritted his teeth and led two teammates to chase after him.

   The other party's difficulty exceeded his expectations!

   There was no news from Dimit, but someone actually bypassed their front and interspersed with the mortar position 600 meters away from the exchange of fire.

   tapped his index finger on the helmet of the exoskeleton, Ulun had a plan and shouted loudly.

   "Surrender! You are surrounded!"

   "We won't kill you, as long as you are willing to hand over the black box you stole from us!"

The sound of    echoed in the street.

   Old Bai, who was holding an assault rifle, frowned.

   What is this guy talking about?

   His human linking is not as good as Fangchang, and he can jump to the level of a few words. Sometimes it is better to speak slowly, but if he speaks fast, he is confused.

   However, if you don't understand it, you can't understand it, so you can't be weak.

   Lao Bai learned the pronunciation of the opposite and returned the sentence intact.

   "Surrender! You are surrounded!"

  Ulun: "???"

  We are surrounded by ok.

   Is this person's brain hallucinating?

   However, just as he was thinking so, a piercing scream suddenly came from the air.

  Ulun looked back suddenly, and saw a "shark" with a **** mouth roaring towards the mortar position behind them.

   Fright flashed in his eyes, and he roared.

   "Ted! Dodge!"

  Ted, who was wearing a heavy exoskeleton, apparently also noticed the abnormality in the sky, and quickly retracted his arms that were stuck on the ground.

However--

   It's too late!

  Two 10mm machine guns shot tongues of fire from that shark's big mouth!

   "Ah da da da! Go to hell!"

   used his mouth to output firepower, followed by the mosquitoes who were shaking wildly in the cabin, excitedly pulled the trigger to the end, and swept the exoskeleton carrying the gun barrel with the front sight.

   Although the body is covered with bulletproof plates, the exoskeleton is an exoskeleton after all, and no amount of bulletproof plates can stop the firepower of the fixed wings.

   In the face of the chaotic sweep of two 10mm machine guns, the heavy exoskeleton was beaten into a sieve in just a few seconds.

   The ammunition box and the battery instantly burst into a half-meter-high spark. The man didn't even have time to let out a scream, and was blown to pieces together with his armor.

  The plane regained its height and flew towards the sky.

"asshole!"

   Staring at the plane desperately, Ulun's eyes were bloodshot.

   His teeth were almost crushed, his index finger pulled the trigger to the bottom, emptied the entire magazine of bullets, and did not stop until the plane disappeared from view.

   The same goes for the other two teammates.

   The anger nearly made them lose their minds.

   However, as the leader of the squad, the remaining rationality finally made Ulun calm down quickly.

   The opponent has air support!

  Although it is just a ridiculous propeller plane, those two heavy machine guns are no joke, their equipment is not advanced enough to counter common sense.

  This is a river valley province far away from the Dead Coast. It is right at the door of the opponent's house. The supplies and reinforcements on the opposite side are almost unlimited, and there are no supplies and reinforcements available on my own side.

  Thinking of the man's words earlier, Wu Lun's heart sank even more.

   Maybe that person is not joking.

   The reinforcements of these people have really gathered around!

   They only have one chance!

   If you can't catch anyone, you have to take a plan B and keep going north, seeking help from the looters they have funded.

   Without time to hesitate, Ulun immediately pulled out the flare gun on his waist and fired a flare towards the sky to remind his teammates in front.

   Immediately afterwards, he shouted towards the two teammates beside him.

   "Withdraw!"

  …

  The battle is over.

   The opponent gave up the position and retreated back into the ruins.

   Mosquitoes circled the sky several times, but in the end they didn't find a second chance to dive. After confirming the safety of their own people, they started to return.

  Quitting took a box with fuel rods, first joined Gu Feng, Fang Chang and the others, and then reinforced in the direction of the flare.

   Here they met Lao Bai.

   "Fuck?! Are you alright?" Looking at the torn bulletproof plate on Old Bai's chest, Fang Chang's face showed a surprised expression.

   "Don't worry too much, you've only been shot seven or eight times," Lao Bai said with emotion as he removed the slumped bulletproof plate, "If this were in reality, I'd probably be gone."

   The wind coughed softly.

   "No need to estimate, be confident."

   Smoking cessation is stressful.

   "Do you want to chase?"

   Lao Bai shook his head.

   "Chase a hammer, the mission is important. Call Ye Shi back, and we'll be on our way quickly... If they have reinforcements, it will be troublesome!"

  How to chase?

   Up to now, their VM signal has not been restored, and the other party has already withdrawn into the ruins.

   You can't throw fuel rods here.

   Looking at the heavy exoskeleton not far away, Fang Chang stepped forward and pulled the charred corpse out of the armor.

   groping for a while on the corpse, Fang Chang's hand suddenly stopped, and he took out a necklace from the neckline, with a charred iron plate strung on it.

   A torch is engraved on it.

   "Have you found anything?" Lao Bai came over and asked.

"Um."

   Fang Chang nodded and shook the iron card in his hand.

   "The sign of the torch...his name is engraved on it, but I don't recognize the words."

   Looking at the wreckage of the exoskeleton that was burnt to black, Old Bai took a flare from his waist, tore off the tab, and threw it next to the wreckage of the exoskeleton.

The    signal flares billowed with red smoke.

   "Leave this to the NPC."

   Lao Bai patted Fang Chang's shoulder.

"let's go."
