Rules of Delta: Starting with the Lost Dam

"Throwing knife?"

Ye Yan turned his head and saw Mai Xiaowen's smug face in his arms.

"How about that? I was pretty accurate, wasn't I!"

"Stop talking nonsense, my skill is about to expire. If we get caught, we'll both die."

"what!"

Before Ye Yan could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his arm. "What are you trying to do?"

Just as Ye Yan was about to say something, he suddenly felt a surge of power.

It's adrenaline!

puff.

Mai Xiaowen pulled out the needle and shook the needle tip.

"Of course I'm giving you something good."

"Acupuncture."

"Can you still give it to someone else?"

Ye Yan looked puzzled.

In the game, you can only stab yourself.

Mai Xiaowen rolled her eyes at Ye Yan.

"It's not a game, of course you can take it out and let other people use it."

As he spoke, he gave himself another injection, and when Ye Yan looked at it, it was purple.

A purple item can be more valuable than some gold items!

Even when launching a fierce attack, he would use it sparingly.

"You're such a spendthrift."

Ye Yan looked heartbroken.

"What are you saying! It's not yours, and besides, didn't I give you a prick too?"

Mai Xiaowen rolled her eyes at Ye Yan, then took out a perception enhancer from her chest strap and injected it into both her and his arms. She looked away from the map, pointed ahead, and commanded:

"Run!"

"Then the teammate is nearby."

"You make it sound so simple."

Ye Yan looked around at the monsters surrounding him, among whom were soldiers. He raised the black muzzle of his gun and aimed it at them.

"Now that my left hand is useless, get down, we..."

"I don't want that, just hold me, and I'll take care of the rest."

As Mai Xiaowen spoke, she took out a fully modified M249 light machine gun, her originally gentle face now filled with malice.

She pulled back the bolt, aimed at the distance, and fired decisively.

"Hahahaha, die!"

At this moment, Mai Xiaowen's face was contorted with rage and maniacal laughter, a stark contrast to the charming little girl she had been before.

"Bang!"

The light machine gun roared wildly, bullets raining down like raindrops, instantly felling hordes of monsters and soldiers.

Da da da~~~

"Holy shit!"

Ye Yan's eyes widened.

"You're wasting too many bullets!"

"Shut up!"

boom!

A bullet was fired, blowing an enemy's head off. Mai Xiaowen then fired again.

Wait, what did he see?

A fully modified light machine gun, is this guy really here to attack Puba?

"Hurry up and go!"

As she spoke, she raised Ye Yan's hand, which was hanging limply due to its broken bone, and shouted:

I'm running low on bullets.

brush!

The next moment, three explosive grenades were fired from his triple-mounted hand cannon.

Ye Yan sometimes genuinely wondered if this guy had something wrong with his head, while at the same time being astonished that this guy was actually a knife-wielding expert.

boom!

The explosion rang out, knocking down the monster behind him. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Yan sprinted and finally rushed into the dormitory building of the backup substation.

As soon as they stepped inside, the monsters seemed to be afraid of something and didn't approach, only lingering around.

"Damn it!"

Ye Yan, clutching his severed hand, cursed angrily:

"This is troublesome. I wonder if that healer's skills can suppress the broken hand status."

Since he and Mai Xiaowen can both use their skills, then Feng Yi's skills shouldn't be a problem.

"what!"

After confirming that it was safe, Mai Xiaowen got down from Ye Yan's arms and looked at him with a surprised expression, as if she were looking at a fool.

"Can't you treat a severed hand with a surgical kit?"

"what?"

Upon hearing Mai Xiaowen's words, Ye Yan was stunned and didn't react for a moment.

"May I?"

"Is that okay?"

Mai Xiaowen glanced uncertainly at the simple surgical kit on the panel and pointed to it, saying:

"Look, it's all written there."

"But that's a game. This is reality. You can't just heal a severed hand so easily."

Even so, when Ye Yan took out the simple surgical kit from his backpack and clicked to use it within his field of vision, his hand actually started moving on its own, wrapping bandages around his hand.

A 10-second progress bar also appeared next to it.

"Ah, this is possible?" Ye Yan asked in surprise.

After the progress bar finished, I stretched my arms and looked shocked.

"Hmph!"

Mai Xiaowen said smugly, "I knew it could!"

"I really don't understand, is this a game or reality?"

As they talked, the two walked toward the dormitory building of the backup power station.

Following the map's directions, I confirmed that my teammates were behind the door, so I reached out and opened it.

"We're in!"

Mai Xiaowen had just opened the door.

However, what came into their view was the dark muzzle of a gun.

"Go to hell!"

Holding a rifle, Dr. Feng's face was contorted with rage, his eyes bloodshot, as he roared.

"Danger!"

Ye Yan immediately slid in and tackled Mai Xiaowen, dodging the bullets. While yelling at Feng Yi at the door, he still drew his submachine gun and aimed it at him.

"What are you doing?!"

"You monster, die!" Feng Yi ignored Ye Yan's roar and kept pulling the trigger.

However, the gun barrel did not change direction, but was pointed at the area behind Mai Xiaowen.

Pfft!

Only when blood splattered on his face did Ye Yan slowly turn around and see the person who looked exactly like Mai Xiaowen.

That guy was standing right behind Mai Xiaowen, and now his body was riddled with bullets as he fell straight down.

"What... what's going on? Why are there two Mai Xiaowens?"

Ye Yan looked surprised and his gaze fell on Mai Xiaowen in his arms.

Similarly, Mai Xiaowen looked surprised, her gaze shifting back and forth between him and Mai Xiaowen lying on the ground, who looked exactly like her.

"Why am I here too?"

"Come in quickly!"

Before the two could even react, Doctor Feng immediately pulled them into the house, slammed the door shut, locked it, and then collapsed behind it, panting heavily.

"Then, what exactly happened?"

Mai Xiaowen was still in shock at the fact that she looked exactly like someone else.

Ye Yan still had some guesses.

They are using the bodies of operators from this game, so it's reasonable for identical operators to appear.

However, it's unclear whether they are players like them, or—

"He's a fake," Doctor Feng said after calming down a bit.

"A fake?"

Ye Yan and Mai Xiaowen were both shocked:

"Aren't the fake humans just like those monsters outside?"

"ah"

The doctor, nicknamed "Uncle," stared wide-eyed, saying incredulously:

"Are they those monsters outside?"

"Isn't that right?"

The three looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

"Let's exchange information first!"

Ye Yan spoke first, breaking the silence, and recounted what had happened not long ago.

While speaking, Ye Yan kept a close eye on the uncle's words, actions, and expressions.

Trying to find the sense of unease in one's heart.

How did this guy find out about the existence of fake people, and how did he figure out that "Mai Xiaowen" was a fake?

"Oh"

Hearing what Ye Yan said, the uncle nodded thoughtfully and suggested that Ye Yan and the other person ignore it.

"Then, could it be that you've misunderstood?"
