After the lean young man with the code name 'a' left, Zhao Futu nodded at the other three and turned to leave as well.
Before leaving, Yuyan glanced at the frog, then coldly shot a look at the Crown Prince and slowly said, "You'd better tell your companion the story of Gemini, or one day he will die because of this."
"Even you might be implicated!"
After saying that, she put away her heavy sniper rifle and quickly followed Zhao Futu's steps.
...
The Crown Prince's face turned ashen, but he still asked the frog curiously, "What is Gemini?"
The frog's expression wasn't good either, as if he was recalling something. He frowned and said, "I hope you pay more attention next time! Otherwise, it won't be as simple as getting shot!"
"As for Gemini..." The frog saw that Fat Cat was also curious and explained softly, "She is a very terrifying veteran! She is a woman with the code name 001 in the space."
Code name —— '001'!!!
A woman?
The contractor's number is actually 001?
This made the somewhat chauvinistic Crown Prince feel bewildered. He forgot about the previous incident and hurriedly asked, "Is she the strongest person in the space?"
"No, not her, but them!" The frog seemed to recall something terrifying and slowly said, "They are twins, but actually the same person!"
Twins?
But the same person?
Not only was the Crown Prince confused, but even Fat Cat showed a puzzled expression.
"Are they two people or one person?" The Crown Prince's curiosity was piqued, and he quickly asked.
The frog looked at him and said solemnly, "One person split into two!"
"They were twins before entering the Nightmare Space, and even conjoined twins, sharing one body. They separated after entering the Nightmare Space. They are the fastest-rising person in the Nightmare Space, sharing the same code name, with their minds and spirits connected, and even their life attributes might be linked!"
Fat Cat's face showed a hint of shock, and he couldn't help but say, "So their attributes are the sum of two people?"
"I don't know." The frog shook his head and said softly, "But their secondary attributes are likely combined. They have the highest mental perception in the space, making almost any mental attack ineffective, and might even cause mental backlash. No one knows how high their attributes have been enhanced, but they are currently the only ones who can fly for a long time in the space!"
At this, the frog turned to the Crown Prince and said coldly, "A large team was once wiped out because the deputy leader verbally teased them."
"Not a single person survived!"
The Crown Prince couldn't help but shiver, then fell into deep thought.
He nodded solemnly and said, "I understand. It won't happen again!"
"Better! The women in the Nightmare Space are different from those in reality! They, like us, dance on the edge of a knife and fight for their lives on the brink of death. You'd better change your old views." The frog sighed lightly and continued, "Those women who can survive three to five scenarios are not weaker than you or me, and might even be stronger!"
"Attribute enhancement strengthens our bodies, but for those originally weak women, the effect of their digitized attributes is more significant!"
"Women's intuition is stronger than ours, their thoughts are more delicate, and their innate perception is higher. Without the burden of their bodies, as long as they can overcome their psychological barriers, those women can live longer than us!"
The Crown Prince seemed a bit不服气 (unconvinced) and said, "Then why are there still more men in the space? The two women I met when I entered didn't survive!"
The frog smiled and said, "Because we are more adapted to combat!"
"Pure men! Born to adapt to the battlefield!"
...
Zhao Futu took out a bottle of nutrient solution and drank it in large gulps. He had consumed a lot in the previous battle and needed to replenish his fluids.
Yuyan followed behind him without speaking, keeping a steady pace. This woman didn't talk much, and Zhao Futu liked dealing with women who didn't talk much. As a sniper, she was undoubtedly excellent. While moving forward, she was always aware of her surroundings, predicting any possible attack positions and ready to dodge at any moment.
Zhao Futu took the white crystal in his hand and showed it to her.
It was a special soul crystal!
"Devourer's Soul." (Condition: Good.)
"Origin: Resident Evil."
"Rarity: Deep Blue."
"Material: Soul Artifact."
"Weight: 100 grams."
"Effect: Used for fusion to enhance equipment, forging, enchanting, etc."
"Description: This is a soul artifact dropped by a devourer upon death. There is only a small chance for a contractor to obtain it. Soul-based enhancement abilities can increase the drop rate of this item."
...
"How do you use this?" Zhao Futu asked.
Yuyan looked at the attributes, her eyes sparkling, and then looked at Zhao Futu with a strange expression. "This is a soul artifact and can be directly fused into equipment, but it has a compatibility requirement. If the compatibility is low, it might fail. Usually, this item is fused in the space, where special materials are added according to the space's requirements, increasing the success rate by 5-10%."
Zhao Futu nodded, put away the white crystal, and continued forward.
"Boss, how many scenarios have you experienced?" Yuyan looked at his back, hesitated for a moment, and then asked.
Zhao Futu paused, didn't answer, but extended two fingers in a V shape, then leaped onto a high building to observe the surroundings. This area hadn't been cleared yet, and there should still be hidden zombies.
Yuyan was shocked, seemingly incredulous!
"Either he challenged a higher-level battlefield, or he had incredible luck!" Yuyan thought to herself.
A newcomer who had only experienced two scenarios could be strengthened to this level, which was not just about challenging a higher-level battlefield. From his previous plan, it was clear he had attempted some higher-difficulty tasks and had good luck, managing to survive. In the space, people with both strength and luck undoubtedly advance faster than others!
"Target spotted! Pay attention to fire support!"
At this moment, Zhao Futu's voice interrupted her thoughts.
Yuyan focused, shot a rope from her wrist, and began to rise into the air, flying to the balcony of a six-story building opposite. She found a position where she wouldn't be ambushed from behind, opened her infrared sight, confirmed Zhao Futu's position, and began to lock onto the coordinates of the zombie. It was a devourer, whose speed was a significant challenge for a sniper.
With additional long-range fire support, Zhao Futu felt much more relaxed.
Although Yuyan, like the frog, was on a firearm enhancement path, their focuses were different. The frog was a standard fire support specialist with strong fire suppression capabilities. Once he set up his Gatling gun, it was a terrifying metal storm! Besides the Gatling gun, the frog was equipped with a rocket launcher, sniper rifle, pistol, high-explosive grenades, and timed explosives, essentially turning him into a walking arsenal.
In comparison, Yuyan's enhancement was simpler.
She used a heavy sniper rifle throughout, occasionally combining it with grenades. Her attack methods were relatively单一 (singular), but her burst damage was very high. Once she locked onto a target, it was extremely dangerous! The variations in her attack methods mainly focused on the types of bullets used in her heavy sniper rifle. Currently, Zhao Futu knew of three types: regular bullets, dum-dum bullets, and extended armor-piercing bullets. The latter had the greatest power, capable of penetrating armored vehicles and light tanks!
The two cooperated well. As long as Zhao Futu delayed the target for a moment, Yuyan could seize the opportunity to shoot. Once her gun sounded, Zhao Futu could usually finish off the target. The other party also specialized in firearms, but seemed to have a precision shooting ability. The frog's extended skill was gun fighting, while her extended ability was likely a sniper enhancement.
Together, they spent the afternoon killing about forty to fifty zombies, each earning several thousand survival points and some soul crystals.
They obtained a light blue piece of equipment, three keys, but the results weren't great.
However, Zhao Futu had a stroke of luck and got some free attribute points, while another key only gave him a 300 survival point consolation prize.
This brought Zhao Futu's unassigned free attribute points to a total of 11.
...
By evening, the sky had gradually darkened.
Even the enhanced vision of the contractors began to be affected slightly. The frog's slightly tired voice came through the communicator, "Boss, it's dark! The zombies seem to be getting stronger!"
"Most of them don't need to use their eyes to lock onto targets. Should we go back and rest?"
Zhao Futu heard this and looked at Yuyan. Her shooting ability was also affected by the darkness, but she had night vision equipment, so the impact wasn't significant.
However, after a full day of fighting, both she and Zhao Futu were exhausted.
"Alright, let's go back!" Zhao Futu nodded and said, "Also, don't mention the giant zombie crocodile to anyone to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"Especially keep an eye on the Crown Prince. His real-life personality is probably impulsive and prone to causing trouble."
As soon as he said this, the Crown Prince's slightly aggrieved voice sounded, "Boss, I rarely fight in real life."
