Chapter 1149 A World Without Games (XII)

After coming out of the tunnel, Feng Bujue and his team saw another high mountain.

The slope of this mountain is generally gentle, and there is a river flowing down the mountain.

Even standing at the foot of the mountain, you can see many bunkers and artillery positions of the Red Falcon Army, as well as some patrol sentries on the way uphill.

Of course, Feng Bujue and his team did not care about this level of obstacles at all.

In fact, for an assault team like them, this kind of terrain environment is the most suitable for action.

The four of them went up the mountain, taking down one sentry after another and killing dozens of Red Falcon soldiers.

Finally, on the top of a waterfall, they saw a small boss...

This small boss looks quite powerful. It has a head as big as a truck head and looks like a lizard; it also has two huge tentacles that swing out like whips. In addition... there is nothing else...

Because this small boss has no body, its head and tentacles are parasitic on the rock, and under the rock where it is parasitic, there is a metal door connected to the mountain.

When encountering this kind of enemy, Feng Bujue took the task of testing without hesitation.

But he rushed up alone, using his superhuman speed and reaction ability to play with the little boss for more than two minutes, and then he returned to the safe area where his teammates were like taking a walk.

"Okay, let me talk about the tactics." When Brother Jue came back, he began to explain the strategy without taking a breath.

After explaining the fighting method to the three, the four rushed out together.

The tricky thing about this little boss is that its attack methods are relatively comprehensive - its tentacles can directly sweep the enemy physically; it can also spit out a fireball with a diameter of about one meter and a slight explosion effect from its mouth; in addition, the front end of its tentacles can also emit a small fireball with a flying speed that is not too fast.

It is indeed tiring to deal with this monster alone.

However, it is much easier with the cooperation of four people...

Feng Bujue's arrangement is: he himself will hold the head at the closest distance, while dodging the fireball and shooting into the monster's mouth.

Isaac and Lightning Head ran to the two wings of the boss respectively, and attacked from a position about ten meters away from the physical attack range of the tentacles. In this way...they only need to pay attention to the small fireballs that may appear on their side and are not fast.

The bearded man carrying the small steel cannon was the most relaxed. Because the weapon he chose was very heavy, his mobility became relatively poor, but his firepower and range were no joke; the job assigned to him by Brother Jue was to stay in the rear and suppress the firepower. Anyway, just hit the head.

Just like that...the four of them deployed their formation and bombarded without saying a word.

The battle process was shorter than they thought. After three minutes of fighting, the boss could no longer hold on. After a dull wail, it actually...exploded.

This can also be regarded as one of the characteristics of Contra. Anyway, the things at the end of the level must explode before they are declared finished.

With the death of this little boss, the metal door under the rock also exploded, revealing a mountain tunnel...

"This should be the entrance to the fourth level." Feng Bujue looked at the tunnel and muttered, then turned back to look at Isaac and the others, "Do you want to take a break?"

"No." The bearded man who came from a distance replied as he walked, "I'm not tired at all."

Before he finished speaking, the lightning head next to him also said: "I'm not tired either."

"Oh?" Seeing this, Feng Bujue seemed to realize something, and he immediately looked at Isaac, "So... you don't feel tired either?"

Isaac shook his head: "No."

"Well... so." Brother Jue pondered thoughtfully, "I understand..."

Seeing Feng Bujue's reaction, Isaac seemed to have insight into something, and he said: "Mr. Feng, I was just about to ask you... Since we set off from the beach, we have passed through a coconut grove, attacked a camp, opened a tunnel full of enemies, and our eyes We have been fighting all the way to this mountain; during this period, we have not rested once, and we have not even had a sip of water..." At this point, he paused for half a second and asked again, "However, until now, I have not felt tired at all... Isn't this a bit strange?"

"Indeed, this is not normal, but..." Feng Bujue replied in a relaxed tone, "Just now, I thought about it... This is most likely caused by the dimension conversion. Simply put... This phenomenon is because you have become a kind of 'game character'.

"What do you mean?" The big bearded man continued, "Does it mean... I have become Mario?"

"Almost, but you can't eat a mushroom to double your size." Feng Bujue replied, "You can't jump several meters high like the protagonist in Contra, or run like Sonic... You just have some characteristics of game characters, such as - no need to consider physical strength.

"Haha! That's great, I can kill to my heart's content." The big bearded man seemed very happy to hear this.

But Isaac was different. He thought more about it: "So... after destroying the Pita, can we still return to the original dimension... or... can we still become human again?"

"I don't know." Feng Bujue didn't intend to fool him. He told the truth, "I only know... after destroying the Pi Tower, my 'mission' will be completed. I will be teleported to another dimension by a higher power; and you... although I can try to use my ability to help you go back, I can't guarantee that it will succeed."

"So..." Isaac continued, "Technically speaking, we in the real world are likely to be three dead people, right?"

When he asked this question, he seemed quite calm.

"Yes." Feng Bujue also responded in a similar tone.

"Hmph... It doesn't matter." The bearded man said, "When those mechanical bastards killed my daughter, I considered myself dead; as long as I can kill the Pi Tower, I will go even to hell."

"Heh..." Lightning Head smiled bitterly, "It doesn't matter to me. I'm ready to sacrifice for the resistance."

Two seconds later, Isaac raised his head and looked at his comrades beside him.

He didn't say anything like that, just stared at them for a few seconds, then added: "Let's go."

…………

The mountain tunnel in the fourth level is basically an enhanced version of the previous tunnel.

The ground here is red, and the color of the defense wall has been changed to green. The number of soldiers and defense walls in the tunnel has increased, and not only the large machine at the end of the level, but also the defense wall on the way has adopted a multi-energy core design.

However, because of the previous experience, the speed of the four people passing through this enhanced tunnel has increased, and the small boss at the end of the level did not cause them too much trouble.

In about fifteen minutes, they broke through this area and entered the next level.

After walking out of the tunnel, a forest covered with snow appeared in front of the four people. In reality, this kind of "going through a cave is like reaching the other side of the earth" is naturally impossible, but in the game world - don't worry about these details.

From this level, the combat power of the Red Falcon Army has finally upgraded to a level that is enough to threaten Brother Jue and his team.

First of all, the main enemy in this area is a powerful red-armored soldier who is stronger than the green-clad soldier in the tunnel; the shooting skills, firepower, speed of this soldier... are incomparable to the previous enemies. Even Lightning Head admits that the level of these guys has exceeded the average level of their resistance soldiers.

Secondly, from the moment they entered this area, Feng Bujue and his team were constantly attacked by grenades flying from unknown directions. Those grenades all came from a long distance. Although their speed was not fast and their trajectories were also obvious, the disgusting thing was that... these grenades were endless and their launch coordinates could not be identified. The four people could only keep moving under the pressure of these grenades, because once they stopped, they would be blown up.

Under such pressure, they also had to face two new enemies that made their debut in this area: one was the elite Red Falcon soldier who controlled the continuous artillery turret, and the other was an armored vehicle.

It can be said that at this level, the difficulty of the battle has really reached a new level. Without the ability to use skills, even Feng Bujue was not sure that he could pass through unscathed on his own.

Fortunately... he was not alone at this moment. Even if the three NPCs of the resistance army could not compare with Brother Jue, they were also of the "Contra" level.

The four of them worked together, and after a fierce battle of 30 minutes, they finally reached the end of the level without any danger.

What was not proportional to the difficulty of the level itself was that the boss of the end of this level was so weak that it was funny...

Basically, it was a small mechanical fortress floating in the air. It looked quite advanced, and it seemed that there were more than one or two attack modes, but... it was so fragile.

When the four saw that thing falling from the sky, they almost instinctively raised their weapons and fired at the sky. Unexpectedly, after the first wave of attacks, the small boss fell from the sky diagonally with black smoke and explosions.

It might be because of the size, or because the overly heavy armor was abandoned for the suspension function. In short... the defense of this boss was so low that it was vulnerable. It didn't even fire a single shot, and it was finished.

After finishing this particularly funny thing, Brother Jue and his team continued to move forward. This time, what awaited them was not a tunnel built in the mountain, but a huge man-made building.

According to the changes in the map area, this should be the sixth level of the legendary "Eight Underwater Levels".

Although Feng Bujue also knew that the Eight Underwater Levels was just a "rumor", when he really got here, he couldn't help but become curious. After all, the task bar clearly and clearly wrote [Enter the "Eight Underwater Levels" of the Contra area], and he had no reason not to try it.

So, before entering the building, Feng Bujue first stopped Isaac and the other three, wanting to explain to them the setting of the so-called "Eight Underwater Levels" and let them pay attention to a "special" Red Falcon soldier in order to meet the entry conditions required by the rumor.

As a result, even Brother Jue did not expect that the three people in front of him knew everything about the "Eight Underwater Levels". Even the bearded man who was not a Zhiyue knew this story.

In this case, things would be easier to handle. Feng Bujue simply used his identity as the "savior" to convince them to complete the task together.

…………

After the discussion, the four entered the sixth level.

The scene inside the building looked like a processing plant, with green conveyor belts on the undulating gray metal platforms, connected by blue pipes everywhere; basically on each platform, there were several red indicator lights flashing energy nuclear light sources, which served as lighting equipment.

Soon after rushing in, Jue Ge and his team found that there were not many enemies in this level, which could be said to be a "few but good" route; except for the powerful red armored soldiers and the burst turrets in the previous level, there were no other types of enemy troops in the factory.

The four of them fought and rushed for about ten minutes before they came to an area with many flamethrowers.

These mechanical things... have obvious rules, and you can pass them with a little observation. They do not pose any threat, but they are more annoying.

After a little time, Feng Bujue and his team passed through this place and came to a fairly wide space.

At this time, under their feet was a glowing conveyor belt with constantly changing colors, and all around them was a vast darkness.

The four of them knew that they were close to the end of the sixth level, but...

"What's going on? We've come here, but we haven't seen that special soldier." The bearded man couldn't help but think.

"Well... it's very strange." Feng Bujue also said, "We didn't encounter any soldiers running from behind from the beginning to the end, and the last enemy we killed was a gunner. That guy is far away from here, and there is a trap array composed of flamethrowers on the way. Even if he runs, he may not be able to run over... In other words, in reality, this place does not have the conditions to trigger the so-called 'Eight Underwater Levels'."

As the two were talking, the conveyor belt under their feet had brought them to the end of the level.

At this moment, the door of a metal warehouse in front slowly rolled up, and heavy footsteps came from the darkness behind the door.

Just when everyone thought they were about to see the robot boss at the end of the sixth level, something strange happened...

But it was not a four or five-meter-tall robot warrior that walked into the light source, but... an unidentified object with a very strange shape.

Its appearance is just a bunch of pixel graphics that have become distorted due to a bug: its lower body is two yellow legs that look like those of a Red Falcon soldier; its upper body is like a torn, slanted mouth, which is even wider than a human body.

"Ho~ So that's it..." Feng Bujue knew what to do as soon as he saw that thing. He immediately turned around and shouted to the three people behind him, "Everyone... follow me!" (To be continued.)
