Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The helicopter’s flank was grazed by the rocket launcher. The entire cabin shook violently! The helicopter shook uncontrollably. The pilot was sweating profusely as he shouted, “Quick! Bail out! Now! 20 seconds at most!” Bail out just like that? At this critical moment, several thoughts flashed through Fang Heng’s mind. His gaze quickly swept across the city below. “That white building! Listen to my command! Choose to drop off and gather on top of that white building!!” Fang Heng shouted. At this moment, he could not care about anyone else. He conveniently pulled his teammate, Mo Jiawei, who was beside him. “Jump!” After saying that, Fang Heng directly jumped out of the helicopter. Behind him, the members of the Dark Knights also followed Fang Heng and jumped down. “Wait for me!” Mo Jiawei gritted his teeth and also jumped down with Fang Heng. “Chil” The emergency parachute opened in the air. Fang Heng tried his best to maintain his balance in the air. Although it was only his first time parachuting, the high attributes of his body allowed Fang Heng to quickly master the technique. After a moment, Fang Heng landed steadily on the rooftop of the white high-rise building. (Hint: You have entered a low-risk infected area. Your infection index will continue to increase. When it reaches 50%, there is a probability of entering an infected state. Please be careful! ] “Boom!!!” ‘As soon as he landed, Fang Heng heard an explosion. Another helicopter was hit by the nemesis’s rocket launcher and was directly blown into pieces in the air. “Woo…” A few zombies on the roof smelled the scent of living people, and pounced on Fang Heng and the others who had landed on the roof. After landing on the ground, the Dark Knights’ NPCs took out their submachine guns to fight. Fang Heng took out his machete and cut down two swaying zombies as if he was chopping vegetables. Then, he approached his teammate, Mo Jiawei, who had landed not far away. “are you alright?” “Hiss, I’m fine.” Mo Jiawei’s attributes were not high. When he landed on the ground, he lost his balance and fell, losing some of his blood. However, it was not a big problem. He quickly stood up, took out his pistol and hid behind the elite Dark Knights. After a short while, the gunfire stopped. The zombies on the rooftop had been cleaned up. Lucia looked anxious. She quickly walked to the fence and lowered her head to search for the direction where the helicopter had crashed. ‘Why was she crying? Tears welled up in her eyes. Fang Heng also walked to Lucia and also lowered his head to observe the city below. The helicopter the team had taken before had landed at a street intersection not far away. The helicopter had fallen into several pieces. Some of them were still burning and were emitting thick black smoke. More than a dozen silver-white boxes were scattered around the landing spot of the helicopter. The pilot had been sacrificed. Lucia realized that there was someone next to her. She wiped her tears with the back of her hand and turned to Fang Heng. “Fang Heng, we’re in trouble.” “Yes.” Fang Heng’s expression was solemn, and he thought to himself, “I know.” And the trouble they were in was not small. “Fang Heng, we need to establish the base station before we can operate the communication device in our hands.” “all the components needed to build the base station are on the helicopter we are in. We have to retrieve those boxes as soon as possible so that we can contact my brother as soon as possible.” “Your brother?” “Colonel Barker.” Fang Heng was surprised. He could not connect the bald Colonel Barker and Lucia no matter what. Lucia looked down at the time again as she spoke. “There are still two hours left before sunset. We have to retrieve the base station components and assemble them as soon as possible…” [Hint: Player has completed the fifth mission-Explore Pine City, triggering the sixth mission-Desperation.] Mission name: Desperation. Mission Difficulty: SSS. Mission description: Your team was attacked by an unknown source during the process of entering the city. On the way, the helicopter you were riding on was damaged. You lost contact with the other members of the Dark Knights. Optional mission branch 1: Establish the base station. Mission requirement: Find all the metal boxes containing the base station components (0/3). Optional mission branch 2: Wait for rescue. Mission requirement: Find a safe place and wait for rescue. Very good! Old Black! Was this part of your plan? Fang Heng thought that if he took another helicopter to Pine City, it wouldn’t be such a mess. Not necessarily. Acrisis was also an opportunity. Fang Heng roughly analyzed the current situation. The second option for this mission was to wait for death. To proactively respond and find the boxes! Lucia was concerned about her brother’s safety. She turned to the Dark Knights’ NPCs. “We need to immediately head to the crash site and look for the boxes containing the base station components. Any questions?” “Um…” Fang Heng raised his hand and asked, “Do you have a plan?” “Plan?” Lucia frowned and showed a puzzled expression. “Rush over, seize the materials and evacuate quickly.” Fang Heng didn’t know how to answer for a moment. Lucia’s plan was summed up in one word. Reckless! “Well done, charging into the street in the midst of so many mutated zombies, then finding a way to grab the metal boxes and then running back.” “You’re courageous!” Fang Heng thought. “No!” Fang Heng immediately shook his head to stop her. “This is too risky, we might be wiped out.” [Hint: Your friendship with Lucia has slightly decreased.) “Then what do you think we should do?” Lucia’s sounded upset. “Do you want to stay here and wait?” “That’s not necessary, let’s go downstairs and check the situation first.” Fang Heng thought for a moment and quickly added, “Don’t go to the first floor. Go to the second floor and find a room by the window.” Lucia immediately turned around and gave the order to the team. “Go! Go to the second floor!” A Dark Knight who was at the forefront kicked the iron door of the rooftop open. The members of the team behind entered in a file. “Let’s hide behind.” Fang Heng whispered to Mo Jiawei and followed behind the team. The teams that entered Pine City were all top elites of the Dark Knights! Their combat ability was abnormally terrifying. Especially after being equipped with high-level guns. They used the high firepower of submachine guns to directly make their way through! Asingle bullet from them could instantly kill an ordinary zombie. Fang Heng had seen through some tricks. The weapons of the Dark Knights had been modified. In order to prevent the noise from attracting more zombies, a silencer had been added. The bullets were also specially made bullets, which enhanced their power. Even if they encountered a Tier 1 mutated zombie, the dense bullets could still easily shatter it. Fang Heng estimated that most of these soldiers had brought their submachine guns and bullets with them. He and Mo Jiawei, the two ‘supporters’, followed at the back of the group. ‘The team quickly arrived at the second floor of the jewelry shop. Fang Heng roughly identified the direction and pointed at the tightly shut jewelry exhibition hall. “That room! Quick! Go in!” The lock of the door was broken by a bullet. The team broke in and cleared out the remaining zombies in the room. Two NPC soldiers brought a cabinet from the side and blocked the door. Lucia walked to the window. Through the window, she looked out anxiously.
