When the high-voltage blockade was completely destroyed, all the Russian players on the other side who were lucky enough to be killed were covered with their noses and rushed out of the smoke and dust to fight back. Although they knew that the people who could open the high-voltage explosion-proof door were definitely not something they could deal with, even so, they had to delay as much as possible and gain as much time for the transfer of scientific researchers behind them.

Although many players in "Zero" have non-combat profession types, the problem is that there are many types of non-combat players. There are actually very few people who can really conduct research on magic equipment, which means that such people are rare resources. Because of insufficient human resources, as long as the player guild is involved in this aspect, they basically use NPCs to support the beam. Players only play an auxiliary role in speeding up progress, and the main body of the research team is still the player.

Because most of the researchers are NPCs, this team can almost be said to be a non-renewable resource. Once killed, it is really difficult to get these scientific research NPCs again. Therefore, the best result these combatants can choose now is to save the researchers even if they die.

In fact, if Zhenhong and I really caught up with those researchers, we might not be the first to kill them, but the other party might be themselves, because the research type of NPC is basically recognized as a high-end resource among major guilds. It is like when you are chasing the enemy, you find that a lot of money has been lost. What do you think you will? Of course, normal people pick it up and collect it themselves. Anyway, the other party is their own enemy, and there is no problem of picking up lost items and needing to be returned. As for burning the money, that is something that only people with a brain disease can do.

These scientific research NPCs are a resource that is more valuable than money for large guilds, and they are different from money that is gone after spending. Scientific research NPCs are like oil wells, and can continuously generate profits, and their value is much greater than those non-renewable resources. Therefore, under normal circumstances, if we find a large number of scientific research NPCs, our first reaction is to stop them first and then transport them back to the guilds to serve us. You must know that scientific research NPCs and combat NPCs are different. This kind of existence belongs to non-combat units and has weak awareness of resilience. Basically, as long as someone provides research funds and scientific research environment, they will follow you

The work required is basically no matter who you are. What you want to do with research results. They only care about research. Of course, this mainly refers to ordinary research units, such as high-end existences like Jiaha and Noreen, which cannot be assigned at will. Not only do you have to give them a suitable scientific research environment, but you must also be in a match for them. If they don’t like you, even if you hold a knife around your neck, others will not work for you, especially Noreen. Although she is a researcher, our guild can probably rank in the top 20 in terms of combat effectiveness, including chaos and order in our guild. Such a terrible combat power is really hard to deal with.

Because we discovered those research NPCs, we would probably snatch them as soon as possible, so I guess if we really caught up with those researchers, the other party might kill these research NPCs in advance if we were sure that they could not stop us. After all, destroying them is better than giving them to the enemy. For players, this is basic common sense. As for human life, how many players really treat NPCs as humans?

Although the Russian players had very correct ideas, they still underestimated the combat effectiveness of our people. Without exception, all the players who rushed over were stabbed into hedgehogs by the flying sword of gold coins on the way, and followed the flying sword and continued to move forward. Along the way, they kept rolling forward like a meat grinder. All the Russian players blocking the way were poked and fell all over the way.

"Your skill is really in a narrow environment..." I stepped over a rag-like corpse and sighed: "It's so useful!"

"In fact, the opponent does not have a high defense profession. As long as there is a row of shield warriors, it can basically block all my offensive routes." Jin Coin said.

Christina said leisurely: "But who would prepare a team of shield warriors in such a secret base? What's more, this passage is so wide. How many shield warriors do you need to block it?"

"Okay, concentrate on attacking forward. According to Yamamoto Isobu's information, the other party's research center is not far ahead. Pay attention to the control skill range later, don't let those research NPCs get trapped."

"This is not easy to control!" Jin Coin said with some embarrassment. Her attack was different from others. Zhenhong used fists. As long as she paid a little attention to the direction, she would not hit the target she did not want to hit, while Christina's attack was direct aiming. So generally speaking, as long as she did not aim at the opponent and tried not to use large-scale lethal magic, there would generally be no accidental injury. However, the skills of this Jin Coin were a bit difficult to deal with. Her flying sword was actually not directly controlled by her own subjective thinking.

After all, if tens of thousands of flying swords are used together, if each sword needs to be directed by the user, even the most powerful person will definitely be too busy. Therefore, the flying sword actually has a certain spirituality. Although it is impossible for swords with spirituality to learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, at least they will have certain animal-level intelligence. At least they can simply distinguish between living targets and dead objects, so as to avoid obstacles and chasing the enemy, and form a sword array for cluster attacks at appropriate times. These are all benefits brought by spirituality.

However, spirituality sometimes has some negative effects. For example, in this kind of tunnel with turning, the flying sword can continue to fight at the corners invisible to gold coins without becoming blind as soon as it enters the area invisible to gold coins. However, it is precisely because these flying swords enter the area invisible to gold coins and enter the self-judgment mode after entering the area invisible to gold coins, that is, determine which are the targets of attack, which are obstacles, and which are their own people. In this case, all judgments are made by the flying sword themselves. Although, with the spirituality of the flying sword, there will be no problem with general simple judgment, the current situation is obviously not a simple situation.

First of all, Yamamoto Izuru is our spy now. We all know this, but the problem is that from the data recognized by the system, Yamamoto Izuru is a genuine Japanese player, that is, our enemy. If the gold coins can directly see Yamamoto Izuru, it would be fine. She could use her will to tell those flying swords. This is not a target, and it needs to be bypassed. But the problem is that there are many turns in this place. If the gold coins cannot discover Yamamoto Izuru at the first time, then these flying swords will not hesitate to attack Yamamoto Izuru as an enemy. In addition, the same situation is the same for those NPCs. Although we all know that those NPCs are resources and can be brought back, in terms of system cognition, the opponent is currently a member of the hostile guild, and the members of the hostile guild are all enemies. Therefore, the flying sword will not ignore these people, and they will attack these people as enemies.

It is precisely because of the problem with the flying sword that the gold coins cannot guarantee that they will not hurt those scientific research NPCs. After all, her flying sword is like a series of intelligent attack aircraft. Although she can use her own thoughts to mark targets that do not need to be attacked and targets that need to be attacked with her mind, once she leaves her sight, these attackers will enter automatic mode. At this time, they will only act according to their own judgment, and in this state, many targets that do not need to be attacked will also be included in the strike range. This is the trouble with the flying sword.

I also know that the situation mentioned by the gold coins is an objective situation. Unless the flying sword can have its own weapon spirit, they can learn to distinguish complex goals. But the problem is that the gold coins take a route that is not heavy on quality. Her skills can fly together with thousands of swords. It is nothing to ask several of the flying swords to produce weapon spirits. After all, she is a senior guild, and it is very simple to use the benefits of the guild to develop one or two weapon spirits. But the problem is that now, what we need is not a few, but tens of thousands. Even our guild will definitely not be able to get so many weapon spirits. Generally, players can have a weapon with a weapon spirit, and like gold coins, they need tens of thousands at a time. Who can bear this? Therefore, the trouble of gold coins can almost be solved.

"If it really doesn't work, don't let the flying sword escape from sight. Just take it right before you start."

"Then I'll be responsible for everyone's defense!" Jinzi knew that he could not command the battle in a direction he could not see, so he had to turn off attack to defense. If it was just defense, the flying sword would not need to fly too far away, so there would be no accidental injury problem.

After we made a decision, we turned into the corridor where Yamamoto Iroo entered before, and then a player immediately rushed out. This guy's shape was very strange. He didn't rush up with his weapon, but instead spread his arms, making a posture like a track and field player who crossed the finish line and met with victory. This posture was not only strange, but also completely exposed his chest. It was a typical dying move. But this guy actually rushed up with his arms open and howled.

Of course, we can't let him get close to this kind of enemy who is obviously problematic. Seeing that guy suddenly rushed over Christina raised her hand without hesitation and threw a lightning ball over, and the guy did not disappoint everyone's expectations. The big explosion occurred on the spot. It was not the big explosion that was joked about, but the real big explosion. The terrible shock wave spread instantly and blew Radamantis and I and me and kept sliding backwards. Christina and the gold coins were already blocked by us. Zhenhong instantly made a defensive posture in front of us and forced the shock wave.

Thanks to our reaction speed, the shock wave did not do anything to us in the end, but it just moved us back a distance, but the power of this just now really scared us. Christina's lightning ball was not that powerful, which is certain, so the player must have a bomb on his body, and this is not an ordinary bomb, because if it were the more common bombs in the game, even if this person carried a bomb as big as himself, it would not be possible to achieve this power. And just now we didn't even see that this person carries any explosives on his body, which means that even if he was tied with a bomb on his body, it should not be large. Such a small size has such a large power, which is definitely not the kind of bomb we are common.

Although the explosion did not hurt us, it made us dirt-like. The passage in front was directly blown down. Fortunately, the stones on the top of the cave fell down and blocked the road. It was not the entire collapse, so the two red punches solved the problem.

After reopening the passage here, we entered the vertical well-like space that Yamamoto Izuru entered before, and now this is the first one. Christina and I did not stop after we got here, but chased forward all the way to the place where Yamamoto Izuru met the researcher before.

We came in just by pretending to have marked Yamamoto Izuru before and chased him all the way. Although this would make Yamamoto Izuru bear some responsibility in this invasion incident, it could instead clear his suspicion of spy. After all, if it is a real spy, there is no need to set up such a chase device. But we just did the opposite. Although this would make Yamamoto Izuru take some responsibility, it would be beneficial for Yamamoto Izuru to further gain the trust of the other party.

Because we didn't check the previous vertical wells, we didn't waste time and rushed all the way to the place where Yamamoto Isoba was. Of course, it had been more than fifteen minutes since we invaded here. Even if the other party was slow, it wouldn't be waiting for us to catch him here.

After we arrived at the place, we deliberately pretended to be looking for clues, but in fact we secretly opened the communicator and asked about Yamamoto Isoyu and his friends' current situation. Unexpectedly, the answer we got was that they had actually returned to the dock we entered before.

Because everyone around him was surrounded by others, Yamamoto Izuo was unable to explain the story in detail to us at this time. He could only take advantage of the opportunity when everyone was busy running away and didn't have time to pay attention to him.

I roughly know from Yamamoto Isobu's report. The other party should have a small path to run directly from a secret tunnel at the top of the cave to the port, but we all ran in, which made it easier for the other party to escape from there.

After we knew the situation, we stopped looking for the tunnel and went back the same way. At this time, almost all the combat players in the base had gathered, and we were blocked at the entrance of the passage when we returned.

Faced with the obstruction of these players, we were not afraid of anything. Although there were many people on the other side. If we just rushed over, it would not be a big problem, so we rushed all the way without stopping. In fact, those Russian players did not cause us any trouble. Perhaps it was because this place was too hidden, so the Russians felt that it was unlikely that we would find it here. The result was that not only did not have advanced players, but also the number of ordinary defense personnel was obviously too small. The level itself was not enough, and the number was not enough. How could such a team have a barrier?

Although the intercepting troops failed to cause us too much trouble, we were still one step late when we arrived at the port. The last picture we saw was a trajectory that was moving quickly towards the isolation wall, and then eventually disappeared on the water.

Only seeing the track but not seeing the ship, this means that the ship is underwater, which means that the opponent's submarine has already submerged. If it is just an ordinary submarine, we just need to jump down at this time and chase after it and launch an attack. After all, although many guilds in the game have built submarines, most submarines can only ensure submarine navigation, and their attack capabilities are basically very bad. Some submarines built by medium guilds can only approach the enemy through submarines, and must surface when they are about to attack near the opponent. Such submarines are actually very backward.

It is precisely because most guild submarines do not have much combat power. So we generally don’t care too much, but the key is that the submarines in this place were obviously not built by the Russian guild here. This is clearly something left over from a branch of the Atlantis civilization. As the main means of transportation of the Atlantis civilization, their submarines have very strong combat capabilities. Moreover, all the underwater navigation equipment in Atlantis have very exaggerated speeds, so even if we go into the water, we should not expect to catch up.

At this time, someone may ask why you don’t take other submarines to chase after you. Aren’t there many submarines in this place?

In fact, this method is easy to think of and very useful, so the other party also thought of it. The way they used was to sank all the submarines in the port. These Russians knew that they could not beat us, so once they were discovered, it meant that they could not stay in this place. Then, since they could not stay in, these submarines were destined to be unable to take them away. Then, according to the normal thinking of the players, since they could not get it, they naturally could not leave it to the enemy, so they all made a "pochu" theory. When we arrived, the submarines were either smoking and sinking or disappeared.

The other party's actions were very thorough. In such a large port area, all the submarines except those that were driven away were basically sunk. Even if we wanted to get a boat to chase, we would have no hope.

"Hahahaha..." We were staring blankly on the water, and suddenly we heard laughter from behind, and there were more and more. As soon as we turned around, we saw many undead Russian players and a small number of Korean players laughing at us on the dock. Although they could not leave with the submarine, there was no absolute death in the game. Even if we stayed, at most, it would be just to die and hang back after death. This was not a big deal, so these players had no psychological burden at all. Instead, they laughed proudly after seeing that we were unable to catch up with the fleet of researchers.

When Zhenhong heard the laughter of these people, she immediately turned around and glared at the people, and then suddenly rushed over and grabbed a guy and wanted to kill him. Unexpectedly, the guy was not afraid at all after being caught. Instead, she said with a smile: "If you kill me, I can go back and resurrection. Anyway, the loss is not very big, but the scientific researchers have left. Even if you take us out, don't expect to chase after you. Who is more miserable between us?" After that, the guy turned around and showed off, and he showed off a show of applause and cheers, which made Zhenhong even more angry. He exerted a little force on his hand. With a click, the guy's head exploded like a watermelon hit by a sledgehammer. The laughter around him stopped abruptly. Although they were not afraid of death, Zhenhong's killing methods were a little violent, and many people were directly shocked.

Compared to being so impulsive, I am much calmer. Atlantis' submarines are certainly fast, so it is not easy for me to summon Xiaolongnu or Adina to catch up, not to mention that there are too many submarines. Even if we catch up, it is useless. The other party is not only one submarine, but we can only catch up with one or two, which doesn't mean much to us. What we need now is a way to let me distribute a large number of people to stop all the submarines of the other party. Of course, it is also a good idea to track them all the way.

The other party cannot wander in the sea all the time. They will definitely find a place to dock, and once they get ashore again, we have a chance to start. Moreover, this method does not require intercepting all the other party's submarines at the same time, as long as we can keep up. However, Xiaolongnu is sure to catch up with Atlantis' submarines at the speed, but the question is, what if the other party's base is far away? The submarines are propelled by magic mechanically. As long as the magic crystals are not used up, they can keep running. Although Xiaolongnu is a dragon, they are also creatures and will always be tired. If the distance is not far, it is nothing, but if the other party's next stop is far away from here, then if Xiaolongnu is out of strength and is thrown away halfway through the road, wouldn't we be in vain this time?

I was struggling there, and suddenly I felt someone pulling me. When I looked up, I found it was Radamantis, and he was pointing in a direction. I looked along his fingers, and I happened to see the corner of the other half of the port area, where there was a ship that looked like a warship that exposed half of the hull.

Seeing that I noticed there, Radamantis asked me: "Can that thing be used?"

I shook my head and said, "It's useless. Yamamoto Izuru reported that those ships could not move, so they were piled to a corner of the port. Moreover, the other party exploded all the submarines this time but did not move those ships because they knew that those ships could not move at all!"

I just finished explaining here, Christina suddenly said, "That might be possible! The other party doesn't understand because they don't understand Atlantis. President, don't you have a mermaid demon pet who is the princess of Atlantis? Maybe she can open it! And as long as you know the words, you may find instructions for use?"

Not to mention. The possibility that Christina mentioned is really possible. When I think about it, I said directly to Zhenhong and Radamantis: "Zhenhong, Radamantis, please let you both kill all the enemies who are still alive here, gold coins, Christina, go with me to see."

After receiving my order, Zhenhong became excited immediately. She was so angry that she had nowhere to vent her worries. After suddenly hearing my order, Zhenhong immediately rushed towards the remaining players excitedly, and Radamantis quickly followed and joined the massacre work.

The reason I asked them to kill all the players here is mainly because if we can operate those warships, I am worried that the other party will leak the secret. So the best way is to prevent them from seeing it. Of course, if those warships are used to chase those submarines, this secret will not be preserved. But if we just follow, it may not be possible.

Because the sluice of this port is located in the area where ordinary submarines are berthed, we didn't look at the strange ships there carefully when we came in before. When we ran over now, we found that the number of ships here was far beyond our estimate. The waters on this side of the port are as big as the other side, and there are at least hundreds of ships parked here. Some of them are large and some are small, with two of the largest ones in total, which are no less than our Biling battleship. Most of the other warships are frigate-level warships, which are mixed with some large ships, and they all look like warships. But there is no way to be sure for the time being.

I don’t know if it is because of the underwater enclosed environment or the settings in the game are like this. These warships do not look too worn. Although the surface color is very dim, there are no traces of rust and no obvious external trauma. It can be said that except for the color not bright enough, it is basically not very different from the new ship.

After we stepped on the largest ship, we found that this thing really looked new. Because the color on its surface looked dim, it was entirely because a thick layer of salt frost condensed from the outer shell of the body. After all, the sea water is salty. During the surging of the waves, some extremely small droplets of water may evaporate in the air, and the salt in it condenses into dust-like existences. They are suspended in the air and then when they come into contact with other objects, they will attach to it. Although the process is very slow, people know how long these ships have been stopped here, so that the boats are covered with these salt frosts. Just squeeze them with your hands. These white gray powder-like things will fall off, and the ones blocked below are shining metallic colors. It is obvious that the ship not only has no rust at all, but is actually like the new one.

After we came up, everyone immediately began to disperse their actions, mainly looking for some possible clues. I just checked the deck and heard Christina's screams.

"President, I've found it here."

"What's the situation?" I ran directly to the location where Christina was. Then I found that she was looking at a small magic array. This magic array was carved on a metal plate, with an area similar to the sewer manhole cover. It was also a circular structure, but not on the ground. It was embedded on the outer wall of the ship island on the side of the deck. Because the magic array structure is very simple, I recognized the structure of this magic array at a glance.

"This is……?"

"Yes, it's a stabilization technique."

The so-called stability technique can basically be understood as a kind of thing used specifically to protect those lifeless items so that they will not change any aspect of their properties due to rust, fusion and other reasons in the long river of history. You can think that this is a kind of preservation magic, but it is specially used to protect things without creatures. For example, you can use this magic to protect a wooden table. If it is normal, a wooden table, even if there is no insect to chew it, in a few thousand years, the moisture in the air alone can almost completely corrode it. However, if there is protection from the stability technique, it will be different. As long as there is no problem with the stability technique itself and there is no forced damage by external forces, even if the table is left for ten thousand years, it will definitely not appear as when it was first protected, and even the paint on the surface will still be as bright as new. This is the function of the stability technique.

The effect of the stabilization technique is so powerful that many people will think of its purpose at the first time, which is to protect the mechanisms in secret tombs. Many tombs or treasure hiding points will have mechanisms, but there is no problem in a short period of time. Once the time exceeds a thousand years, even mechanisms made of stones may have problems, let alone mechanisms that use wood or metal. Whether it is wood or metal, it may naturally rot and rust in the air, so many mechanisms will fail on their own over time.

Because of this, many cemetery owners want to use some method to ensure that these mechanisms will not lose their effect over time.

Although this idea is very good and the stability technique can do this, the current situation is that a large number of cemetery mechanisms still lose their effect due to various reasons, and the reason for this phenomenon is that the magic array of the stability technique is unreliable.

The stability technique itself is indeed a very useful magic. As long as it is released once, the target item being released will not change any traits within one month. Therefore, this magic is actually very convenient, just use it once a month.

However, the reason why those equipment that need protection needs protection is that there is no one to take care of it, it is impossible to hire a mage to release it once a month. If you have that ability, it is better to hire a few repairmen to maintain it regularly and save money. Therefore, a more reasonable method is to place a magic circle and then let the magic circle release the stability technique regularly.

The part in front of us is this kind of magic array, which can release stability techniques regularly. It looks very perfect, and can ensure that the target cast will never have problems due to its own reasons. However, this is actually just an illusion. The real trouble with the magic array is that this magic consumes very magically and consumes a lot of magic power every time it is used. Therefore, even if you don’t care about money, rush into a large number of magic crystals in advance for these magic arrays. However, due to the consumption speed, it will be used up quickly, and things you don’t want to happen will still happen, which means setting these things is just to extend the existence of those mechanisms a little bit.

If there is such a thing on this warship, as long as it is not intentionally destroyed, it will not have any problems. This is probably because it has no damage except for a layer of salt frost. However, if this magic array has been working, where does its magic power come from? Even if there is a huge magic crystal warehouse on the ship, it should not withstand the use of this energy-consuming large-scale energy-consuming enterprise. As for using the energy-concentrating magic array, it would be even more unreliable. Can you still expect something of the electromagnetic railgun to rely on a solar panel for power supply? Obviously it is impossible. The same principle is. The energy consumption of this stability magic array after activation is too exaggerated, and it is impossible to use the energy-concentrating magic array to maintain it.

Although I can't figure out how this thing persists until now, it still has energy, but at least it means that there is no problem with the ship. As long as the stability technique does not disappear, the protected things will not have problems due to the passage of time. Even if there is a problem, it is caused by external forces. Its own time will be like being locked. Unfortunately, this magic cannot be used on creatures, otherwise it can basically make any creature live forever.

In fact, after Christina discovered this magic circle, we found a lot of such things in several conspicuous places on the ship. This not only did not solve our doubts, but made us even more confused. To say that a magic circle has energy support until now, it can be understood that the designer has hidden a large number of magic crystals as backup energy. If there are so many magic circles...even if the cabin of this ship is full of magic crystals, it is probably enough for one or two hundred years.

The history of this ship is definitely more than that, that is, it is either someone has been maintaining it or there are other ways to solve the energy problem.

Because we don’t need to analyze the design concept of this ship now, we did not study this thing too much, but quickly ran to the bridge. Although the shape of this ship is a bit strange, the bridge is still the same. They are all located at the highest position in the middle of the hull, after all, the sight here is much better.

It was not difficult to enter the bridge because the bridge gate of the ship was already leaning against the aisle next to it. It seemed that the Russians had studied this place before, and they must have encountered a closed gate at that time, so they had to remove the entire door.

When you pass through the door frame without a door, you can see an operating table similar to that of modern ships when you enter the bridge. However, the buttons and switches on it have all been replaced with crystals, and all the crystals are locked and cannot be pressed at all, and there is no energy fluctuation on it.

"Adina, come out and see if this is your Atlantis thing?" I directly summoned Adina to help. If this thing is really the creation of Atlantis, Adina would definitely know it.

After the summoned Adina appeared, she immediately began to look at the surrounding environment, then walked to one of the operating tables and reached out to touch it, then turned to me and said, "This is definitely not built by us, otherwise I will definitely know. But it does use the same technology as ours, and the design style is exactly the same."

"Is it possible that there is another Atlantis civilization? For example, the separated group has re-established a force outside?"

"There is such a possibility, but it's very small." Adina said after saying that, "In addition, this ship is dead, and you can't use it."

"Dead?" Christina keenly discovered the keywords Adina said.

Adina nodded and said, "Although this is definitely not built by Atlantis. But I said that the design style and technology of this thing are the same as ours. Although I have never seen a warship of this type, the core of this ship is actually a thing with our mobile warship of Atlantis. It is a building creature with certain intelligence. The only difference is that it is not a human form, but the shape of a warship."

"Your consciousness means that this is an unmanned fully automatic intelligent battleship?" Christina asked in surprise.

Adina looked at Christina and nodded, "It's not wrong to think like that. Anyway, this thing is an intelligent existence with self-awareness and independent life. It even has its own soul. But this guy has been dead for a long time, and at best it is a corpse."

"Then is there a way to resurrect this thing?"

"Resurrection?" Adina looked at me in surprise, then thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it is OK. What you know about constructed creatures is somewhat different from us carbon-based creatures. Even if they die, as long as their bodies are not damaged. In fact, resurrection is very simple."

"Then try to resurrect this guy for us. What do we need to do?" I asked directly.

After hearing my words, Adina turned to Christina directly and said, "Normal situation is impossible, but since Miss Christina is here, there is no problem. It's like an electric shock to a human whose heart stops beating. We need to give the heart of this boat a stimulus to start the impact."

"How do you hit this?" Christina asked.

"First of all, we need to find the core pod."

"What's that?"

"It is the core of the intelligent warship, which is equivalent to the collection of the brain and heart of the creature. Anyway, it is the core of this guy."

"Then how do we find it?" Jinzi asked.
To be continued...
