StarTie Simulation: Aren’t you NPCs?

Just as everyone in the "Scrap Mountain" was getting excited about the pre-war mobilization, inside Wu Xuan and Silver Wolf's container... there was another scene.

If the environment in the black market is one of strong friendship and light love... then the environment in the container is pure sweetness.

To be honest, it is hard to say whether the couple who play the feeding game are good people, but it is certain that those who play the feeding game early in the morning are not good people.

At this moment, two "bad guys" hiding in the container are sharing a plate of food, one spoonful at a time.

Which good person can spend more than half an hour eating a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes and two bowls of egg white rice?

But then again, "K" should thank "Q". Even though "Q"'s words were a bit unpleasant to the ear, she stopped him and prevented "K" from falling into a pink pool made of lemon juice.

Not long after a couple in the honeymoon period of love ended all their love affairs, there was a knock on the door of their love nest.

Wu Xuan and Yin Lang looked at each other. The blush on the girl's face still hadn't faded, but compared to the cold feeling on her face before, she seemed to prefer this warm feeling?

Silver Wolf wasn’t quite sure why she had such thoughts, but... this was how she felt now, so why would she ask so many whys?

Wu Xuan looked at the girl's moist lips reluctantly, then opened the door. However... everything that came into his sight shocked him a little.

The "PokeFaces" in the past would definitely not come to him on their own initiative. Even "Si" came under arrangement.

At this moment, there were three people standing in front of Wu Xuan.

To be precise, there should be two people, plus a raven.

"K", "Si", and "Yi" standing on the shoulder of "K".

Wu Xuan saw the serious expressions on their faces and instantly understood what had happened. He then asked, "Yes...are there any changes to the plan?"

"K" nodded, and Wu Xuan immediately made way and motioned for them to come in and talk.

When Silver Wolf saw the serious expressions of the three people and the bird, he realized that something was wrong. He then sat down next to Wu Xuan and fixed his eyes on the raven on the table, waiting for it to speak.

The raven sighed softly and very humanely, then said: "Sorry, two "sharp knives", what is coming next... may be a little fast for you, or perhaps... a little cruel."

"To make a long story short, according to the intelligence detected by "J", the location of "Tuner" cannot be detected at present. Its location is the most core part in the database. It needs the brain core chips of the three bionic supervisors in "Neon City" who report directly to "Tuner" to unlock it."

"That is to say... our final battle may only involve the two of you and "K"."

After hearing this, Wu Xuan and Yin Lang fell into a brief silence.

To be honest, Wu Xuan had imagined all kinds of changes to the plan, such as that "One" was a traitor and had been replaced long ago, or that the entire "Neon City" was a scam, and so on. These were absurd ideas.

But the current situation was something he had not expected. The changes in time and space alone were enough to make them feel overwhelmed.

After a moment of silence, Wu Xuan slowly asked, "Compared to the last time you invaded, are the defenses of Tuning and Neon City stronger or more dispersed?"

"As for the former... we don't know, and the latter has become even stronger."

"But what I can guarantee is... once we get the three brain core chips, the defense of the entire "Neon City" will be distributed to those three companies, and the central "building" will not have any excessive defense."

Just when Wu Xuan was about to breathe a sigh of relief after hearing this, "Yi"'s next sentence suddenly made him feel a little nervous.

"But this defense dispersion will only last for an hour, assuming our people can hold out for an hour against those mechanical guards who have no sense of pain and are tireless."

Silver Wolf, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke a concluding word at this moment.

"That is to say... it seems that we have three days left, but in fact we only have one day... or even a little over an hour. Am I right in understanding this?"

"K" nodded slightly, then continued "One"'s words: "We just discussed that tomorrow, when "Neon City" sends a part of its forces to recruit the new ruling gang that appeared in "Garbage Mountain", we will start the attack. "

"This will minimize the pressure on the other three teams. Of course... to be frank, it will also increase their chances of survival."

Wu Xuan frowned slightly when he heard this and said, "If that's the case... then what are we responsible for when the brain core chip is not delivered?"

"K" and "Yi" were silent, and "Si" seemed to get some kind of signal from the silence, and he slowly exhaled and uttered a word.

"Wait."

"What are you waiting for?"

"Wait until the three brain core chips are delivered to "J", wait until "J" finds the location of "Tuning", then... you two and "K" will attack "Tuning" together."

"So... we can only watch as our companions die one by one?!"

Wu Xuan's questioning caused the two people and the bird in front of him to fall into complete silence.

After a long silence, "One" slowly said, "Mr. Wu Xuan... Any struggle has a price. They may lose some limbs, or even their lives. This is the price they have to bear, and what we have to bear... is the risk of losing our companions."

"Yi"'s words were like a basin of ice water poured over Wu Xuan's head. It's not that he didn't understand this truth, but... he had never experienced this after all.

Silver Wolf looked at his lover with some concern, stretched out his cold little hand and slowly held his lover, as if this could provide him with strength.

The container fell into a suffocating silence, but...Wu Xuan finally made his decision.

He looked at his lover beside him, looked at his partner in front of him, took a deep breath and asked, "When do we leave?"

"Tonight at nine o'clock."

"See you there or see you."

In those short five minutes, he thought a lot.

He now felt that...the people sitting in front of him and beside him were not so-called NPCs, but real living people.

They are the people who experienced the Omnic Crisis, they are the people who lost everything in that catastrophe, they cried and laughed, they felt sad and heartbroken, they are living people, not a string of cold numbers and codes.

Again.

If you can't be yourself in the game... then what's the point of playing the game?
