Chapter 83
The day after the casino bombing on the eve of departure, the street in front of the security forces was crowded with newspaper reporters.
This group of reporters also hired some people who held signs and shouted slogans.
When the chief appeared on the street, a large group of reporters surrounded him and asked countless pointed questions to the police station.
"I heard that a group of terrorists appeared in the city. Is this true?"
"How long will it take for street security to return to normal?"
"Will the previous serial killings happen again?"
"Many people are saying now There are vampires running rampant in our city. Can you give me an explanation?" "Have
you already got the information about the criminals? If not, when will the city be restored to safety?" "May
I ask if the police and security forces have any plans for the next move ? Any plans?"
When the officer returned to the office.
He felt as if he was so tired that he had visited every store in the red light district...
Someone from the newspaper office would suddenly appear at the door and block the door. It must be someone within the police station or security force who leaked the case information.
But this is not a priority.
Catching the mole can delay it.
Reputation must be restored quickly.
The chief thought for a while and took out a report sheet signed "Rebecca", which recorded information about several suspicious suspects. However, because the suspects' branches were unknown, the security forces had to be mobilized to search throughout the city.
A city-wide search order like this is simple to implement, but if the results are not satisfactory, the people and superiors will blame him as the commander, and the reputation of the "just" force will be damaged.
But now there is no need to worry about this.
Rumors will soon spread throughout the city, and the mouths of the people will say that they are worthless.
Once the unscrupulous reporters in the newspaper office use their words to incite a little bit, the rumors will become more and more powerful.
As for what the truth is, who cares?
People are used to being fed ideas, and most of them have lost the ability to think independently. As for those who have the ability to think independently... they would have been pushed to the stakes hundreds of years ago, but now in 1850, they may be staying in mental hospitals. .
So, after half an hour.
An order was sent to various security forces in Novigrad.
——At any cost, find the members of the terrorist organization who are attacking various places in the neighborhood.
In the police station, a security guard rubbed his head repeatedly.
"Damn... you have to work overtime again."
Rebecca came over and said, "I won't be able to save you if I rub your hair any more."
Her colleague said, "You also saw the new order. To put it bluntly, we are asked to expand patrols. We should go to the streets and catch those guys who are targeted as 'terrorists' as soon as possible."
At this time, someone asked: "Why don't you catch a few black people and pretend to be them?"
Rebecca said: "Normal people don't have such big Destructive power, so our goal has been clear from the beginning, criminals with powers beyond ordinary people, that's it." "
Rebecca... you always feel like you are very happy?"
"Happy?" Rebecca sat back at her workstation, holding her hands Holding her chin and looking out the window: "Who knows."
But she was thinking in her heart: The third-rate detective's third-rate methods really worked...
...
that night.
Xu Xin ran on the roof.
She suddenly stopped and hid behind a steaming machine.
The sound of machinery stepping on the ground came not far away.
She held her breath.
A security soldier wearing a steam mecha came over from behind the machine. At this time, Xu Xin activated the skill titled [Coward] to eliminate the sound of footsteps.
Jump on top of the security guard and escape from here.
After running into a dark alley, the light of a gas lamp suddenly shone into the alley. She could only escape again by climbing over the roof. She came to the main road, took the sheet that was hanging on the balcony of a high-rise residence, and wrapped it around her body. , cover your head.
Then he took off his shoes and walked quietly among the crowd, as silent and invisible as a destitute beggar.
Starting this afternoon, the security guards are looking for these players throughout the city.
For Xu Xin, the most terrifying thing was that she realized after fighting with the security soldiers that even though her physical fitness was far beyond that of ordinary people, she was as desolate as a driven fly when faced with an armed siege with live ammunition.
She turned to a darker alley and walked deeper.
The place is full of beggars and homeless people.
These guys have great noses and they smell girly scents.
From time to time there were some men following her.
Damn city.
Danger is everywhere.
"What on earth...what's going on..."
Xu Xin killed those who followed her, and a light rain began to fall from the sky, washing away the haze in this city full of smog, and also casting a layer of helplessness in Xu Xin's heart. .
At this time she developed nervous palpitations.
"There are players nearby!"
Xu Xin knew that now was not the time to fight with the players. When she quickened her pace and was about to walk out of the alley, she suddenly saw security soldiers appearing again.
"Who is it?"
The light shone into the alley.
Xu Xin could not avoid it.
She could only lower her head and pretend to be mute.
But the other party only observed her for almost two seconds before pointing the gun at her.
"Asshole!"
Dong Zhidang felt like she had had enough.
He took out a pair of submachine guns and fired at the front. The bullets hit the gaps in the armor of the security guards and splashed blood.
Xu Xin took the opportunity to run out because there were pursuers behind her. "What's going on...why can they find me wherever I go!"
In front, a woman and several armored soldiers blocked the road.
"Get out of the way!"
Xu Xin roared, took out a grenade from his waist and threw it!
The fire instantly lit up the rainy night.
Also affected by the flames were two nearby shops.
Multiple civilians were injured, and the number of deaths caused by her actually exceeded three.
But she didn't care.
She is a player.
What happened to killing an NPC?
In a certain unparalleled game, who cares about the feeling of being cut grass?
When playing Zelda, because I wanted to try explosive bows and arrows, torturing goblins was considered a basic operation, right?
In Red Dead Redemption, when you are dragging NPCs on horseback while being tied up because of your stupidity, isn’t it fun to listen to their painful roars?
There are many games that make you think the combat system is very interesting, so you just kill an entire city. Is there anything wrong with that?
For another example, when you are playing Fruit Ninja and cutting fruits crazily, have you ever thought about... who will support the fruit family in the future... Okay, this is a bit crazy.
In short... when players treat the script as a "game", they will not feel any guilt for killing people and stealing goods. In other words, people like Xu Xin do not treat this place completely as a game. There is another more important thing. The reason - killing people in the script will not be punished by the actual law.
When Xu Xin ran around from the fire, Rebecca suddenly appeared in a flash. The soldier's fighting method was very simple, using fists to attack vital points as quickly as possible.
When Rebecca's jab hit, Xu Xin didn't react at all. He just felt his jaw shake, and then his whole body flew out while scraping the ground, and stopped after hitting a gas light pole.
A few minutes later.
The security forces arrested Xu Xin and took her to a prison car specially prepared for "players".
At this time, Li Nuo came from a distance under the protection of several security guards. He glanced at Xu Xin, who was in a coma, and then faced Rebecca.
"In the south, about 150 meters away, there is another terrorist."
"Copy that." Rebecca flexed her fingers and shouted to the others: "The third team and I will set off and notify the south block troops to help round up!" The
large troops again Set off.
Rebecca now unconditionally believes in Li Nuo. In this sweep mission, Li Nuo found the locations of all the "suspects". Although he could only give a general direction, there are many people in the security forces, so a blanket search would be enough. Found it quickly.
For example, Xu Xin was locked in position by Li Nuo and had no way to escape.
"The perfect detective..." This is the current evaluation of Li Nuo by Rebecca and a group of soldiers.
Whether Li Nuo is on the same side as that group of terrorists is no longer important to the current security forces. The reason is very simple. He has made his position clear with practical actions and has made too many contributions.
In fact... for Li Nuo, it is nothing more than walking around the city a few times. As long as the crisis sensor is triggered, the player's position can be locked.
I have to say that these functions provided by Mirror Master are really useful...
"If we keep playing like this, it will probably end the day after tomorrow." Li Nuo stood in the center of a group of soldiers, got on a carriage, and looked out the window. Moonlight, he thought: "I haven't had time to play cards recently. After this mission is over, I must find a place to complete the [Gwent Grand Prix] mission and get a wave of strengthening materials, but... because of Mirror Master's Appeared, causing all my previous ideas to be disrupted, and I had to plan again." "
According to the original plan, I should go to the cyberpunk world to get nuclear bombs, and then find a way to come back and gather the players to the Shadow Elder There, then tie the nuclear bomb to the griffin beast, ride it into the sky and drop it to solve the battle... I don't know if there is still a chance."
With regret, the time came to the next morning.
Five players were arrested.
When the security forces finally breathed a sigh of relief, trouble came again.
Worse than all the previous things combined.
because.
The prison exploded.
That's right, another terrorist attack!
The murderer had set up a trap in advance. The amount of bombs could blow the deer-headed spirit into wood chips, and the victims happened to be those five players.
Judging from the tactics, the police quickly identified the murderer - the New Scoia'tael.
At this time, an inconspicuous carriage was parked on the street at the back door of Marger's residence.
inside the car.
Marger placed a bag of gold coins on the narrow table.
The Scoia'tael cadre sitting opposite took the gold coin and asked the subordinate next to him to count the money and nodded with satisfaction.
The Scoia'tael is a guerrilla group organized by non-human races. All guerrilla groups of non-human races that resist human rule are collectively called the Scoia'tael.
After the Nilfgaard Empire took over the north, the remaining forces of the Scoia'tael have basically disappeared, and most of the non-human races have gone overseas.
However, there will always be a group of people in this world who, even after a hundred years, have "Anti-Qing and Fu-Ming" tattooed all over their bodies.
For example, the elves forgotten in human cities.
The current leader of the Scoia'tael is a black-skinned elf.
His origin was an accident.
One dark night, his elf mother used a black man's beep as a fake.
Then he was born.
All in all, this dark elf's identity in the Nilfgaard Empire is as embarrassing as the last eunuch in the new society.
By coincidence, the civil war between the North and the South in recent years has brought the issue of racism to the forefront.
Compared to black people, dark elves can be said to have more BUFF stacks.
So... this guy was promoted to the position of captain of the "Resistance Force" without doing anything, and established the "New Scoia'tael" as a special resistance organization.
Hmm... In short, it was Li Nuo's idea to contact the Scoia'tael as a backup.
In fact, this plan did not exist in the first place.
It was when he borrowed explosives from Marjie's bodyguard that he said, "Do you think that as a bodyguard, you have to engage in self-destruction from time to time? We are not a Scoia'tael", which reminded Li Nuo that there are indeed self-destructions in this world. Terrorist organization.
As for why the Scoia'tael agreed to cooperate with Li Nuo... the reason... In addition to Li Nuo being a bit eloquent, there is also the fact that he is a demon hunter and the other party is an elf. Between the two endangered species, there will always be one who is interested in the other. An inexplicable sense of belonging... This is similar to the concept of people in a foreign land looking for friends to cuddle up with.
In this way, using the authorities and the Scoia'tael, Li Nuo harvested heads.
Moreover,
the battle is not bloody.
"Looking forward to cooperating next time."
The Scoia'tael cadre put on his felt hat and got out of the car without any unnecessary nonsense.
After he got off the bus, Li Nuo got on.
And he looked helpless.
