The two people who were chatting were startled, and quickly stood up straight and recited silently:

"The Commander-in-Chief has ordered that the relationship with the reinforcements be adjusted to a trust level. All investigations are to be kept secret. Every effort must be made to deploy them into the wormhole battlefield. If anyone disobeys orders, unless they can be identified as lurkers, no force should be used to suppress them. Approach conciliatory measures whenever possible."

The two looked at each other, both feeling a little flustered.

Is the situation already so critical? They actually skipped the testing phase. They were just desperate.

The reason for not suppressing the rebellion by force is that they are afraid of provoking the overall resentment of the reinforcements. The command is essentially putting itself in a weak position, but are such gentle tactics really useful?

call.

Chris suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless of whether the reinforcements she had just encountered were trustworthy or not, at least they were willing to fight.

By the way, what’s his name?

......

There is something strange about this planet, and it gives me a faint sense of despair.

At the same time, Yuki was analyzing the copy intelligence. He had already read the information and keenly noticed some problems.

The characteristics of the swarm are described in great detail, and even summarized concisely:

First, the division of labor is clear. Each type of insect has its own job and focuses on one area. Each insect swarm also executes simple commands and will not give up the advance just because friendly forces fail to keep up.

Second, the behavior is rigid. For example, if one swarm is allowed to patrol a certain area, other swarms will not interfere.

Third, do not judge friend or foe by appearance. Appearance, sound, and smell are useless to them. The defense forces have tried various methods of infiltration but all have failed. However, in the eyes of the players, the basis for the Zerg to judge friend or foe is already written in the prompt:

Reputation?

Yuki put down the information. The content should be credible and is a summary of many years, but there is one thing that is very strange.

The introduction to the Zerg is very detailed, but the situation of the defense forces themselves is glossed over in passing. There is not even a map, let alone the distribution of cities and troop deployment.

"You're on guard against the players, right? But from what I've observed, you have no choice but to use it. Even if you know it's poison, you still have to drink it."

Yuki had already seen the shortage of manpower. The blood-boiling scenes of those battles could not cover up the losses.

The territory and population are constantly decreasing. There are only a few living people in such a large transport plane, and the players also have real skills.

Although their total number is not as many as the soldiers in a guard station, their quality is high. According to the nature of the reincarnation game, the strength gap between the camps participating in a copy will not be too big, and there is definitely no shortage of extraordinary or even monster-level players.

The second point can be inferred from the Zerg itself. Their evolutionary direction is clear. For example, the 'Soldier Bug' is obviously targeting guns and has maxed out its physical resistance, while the Brain Bug is specifically designed to deal with various intelligent missiles.

This kind of evolution is precisely useless to players, and even Link City doesn't know how many weird abilities players actually have.

"They have fast reaction speed, strong individual strength, and rich experience in team combat. It seems like they were born for wormhole warfare?" Yuki has experienced it personally. Before the wormhole is formed, he can only block the hole faster by bringing his senior sisters with him.

The last point is based on Tip 2. If no information about the reincarnation game is allowed to be leaked, the natives will not understand things like camps, teams, and other messy things, and will only see the players as a whole.

"I'm 90% sure. Before they confirm I'm a sleeper, they'll treat me with courtesy. I'll be safe if I cooperate with this defense force."

Yuuki breathed a sigh of relief, almost confirming his previous guess, and then felt that being a "lurker" was not that bad.

Seize or destroy the fire. In other words, it doesn’t matter if I don’t destroy it, and there will be no irreversible conflict with my seniors.

Whether to rob or destroy will be decided later. As long as the headquarters gives enough benefits, there is no need for me to be a bad guy.

Yuki stood up and stretched his shoulders, walking back and forth in the small cabin. The key to the camp mission was the harvest. He was very interested in the reward for military merit. In addition, there were also game rewards.

Two bonus points, to be honest, it was the easiest time, after all, he just did some cover work, but it was impossible for him to block the hole alone.

Both the difficulty and the rewards are an order of magnitude higher than before. No wonder some players on the spaceship said they were going to make a fortune.

And the souls of those Zerg are powerful and pure, and are unprecedented high-end supplements.

Military merit, games, and souls, there are actually three paths to harvest.

Boom!

Yuki slammed his fist on the table, almost certain that the copy had returned to normal and the reincarnation game was not playing tricks on him.

[Player Yuki's defense force reputation has been updated and is currently at the Trusted level.]

"Are you excited?"

A clear female voice and a whisper came at the same time. Yuki turned his head and saw the blonde girl standing at the door. She took off her tights and changed into a dark green military uniform.

He looks too young, and to be honest, a little strange, and his expression is very subtle, as if he doesn't want to pay attention to me, but I have to approach him.

Forget about the honey trap, he's just a little brat, not even as good as Hiyori.

He was stunned for a moment, thinking back to the hint and the expression of the girl in front of him, and suddenly laughed:

"Well, I suddenly found myself safe."

"How did you get it?"

"Your expression is too stiff and too deliberate. You must have received some orders."

Chris was stunned and quickly touched her face. She thought, "I haven't received any spy training, but is it really that obvious? Or can this powerful psychic read minds?"

At this moment, she heard the low laughter again.

"I was just guessing, but now I'm completely certain that you received instructions from your superiors. The content should be something like correcting your attitude towards the reinforcements."

The girl's smile froze completely, and she quietly took a half step back, suddenly remembering that these 'reinforcements' had one thing in common:

Most people are very intelligent and make excellent schemers.

"Don't worry, updating the relationship can save both of you time."

Yuki isn't a demon, isn't that clear? This was just an experiment, and the results show that power and personal favorability don't align.

Chris was now on high alert and stretched out her hand reluctantly.

"Yes, we are comrades now."

Yuki sat still, tilted his head, and asked, "If I don't obey orders, will I be eliminated?"

what?

Chris blinked, obviously not considering this. Her right hand froze, her face expressionless: "You can try it."

Try it, hahaha, you've already shown your weakness.

It seems not. The natives here should know that the players are all lawless villains who don't care about any rules or disciplines. They will even turn their guns on you when they are forced into a corner.

This little girl is quite interesting. She is completely different from Hayasaka and the others. She has been tempered by the army and has lost her common sense. How could she win people over like this?

"Miss, getting people to help in the war requires welfare. It's really insincere of you to come with nothing."

"What, what benefits?" Chris looked confused. It didn't say it was so troublesome.

Yuki glanced at the young face, and seeing her silly look, he couldn't bear to tease her.

"What about the military merit reward you mentioned earlier?"

Sure enough, I am still struggling with the rewards.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of contempt in her eyes.

This is the best, otherwise I don’t know what to do if he makes excessive demands.

She raised her hand and took out her service pistol from her waist. It was a sci-fi-looking pistol, but there was a very special device on the trigger.

"The use of any equipment in the Defense Force requires biometric information, and the High Command can provide you with equipment based on your military merits. Otherwise, you won't be able to use it even if you get it."

Bio-locked? Does that mean these items can be taken out of the dungeon?

Yuki's eyes suddenly lit up. He was wondering why players didn't get rich by picking up these high-tech weapons. But in this case, aren't they just chaos items?

No wonder there are so many Chaos items in the border area. It’s impossible that they are all drawn from the game.

"This benefit is quite interesting. It immediately gave me a desire to fight."

"Then we are comrades-in-arms." Chris put away the gun and raised her right hand for the second time.

"Don't worry, I just prepared some questions. Please help me answer them and we'll see what the results are."

Yuki stuffed a piece of white paper into the girl's hand. The latter looked down and the corners of her mouth twitched.

It was a densely packed form that did not involve any secrets of the Defense Forces, but it contained everything from command authority, cooperation objectives, disciplinary constraints, and mutual obligations, making it more like a business contract.

This person is really troublesome!

Chris roared in her heart, but after making sure that it did not involve any confidential information, she had to answer patiently, and then slammed the dust table in annoyance.

"Is this okay? Why do I feel like I'm following your lead?"

It's not an illusion, I'm just testing your patience to find out how valuable the player's 'trust' stage is.

Facing a pure girl who only knew how to fight, Yuki was like a cunning fox. Seeing that she raised her hand for the third time, his patience had reached its limit. He then asked slowly:

"What's your name?"

"Didn't I tell you already?"

"I forgot, now is the time to formally introduce myself. You've never asked me my name."

Yeah, I don’t even know his name yet.

Chris adjusted her uniform, the heels of her boots clashing against each other. "Lieutenant Chris, Captain of the 15th 'Crimson' Squadron, Special Response Force, Defense Force."

"Hey, aren't you the vice-captain?"

Didn’t you just say you forgot?!

The girl took a deep breath and said coldly, "The captain led the desperate charge, and now I will take over."

The captain was the one who went to self-destruct? He's quite the hero.

Yuki recalled those warriors who went to self-destruct. He didn't know why, but he always had a connection with those iron-blooded men recently.

But such people should be respected.

Yuki stood up suddenly, adjusted his windbreaker, raised his hand and held the girl's hand.

"I am Sky Island Yuuki."

Chapter 6: Traitorous Looks Like Loyalty (K)

The deal was done, interest was generated, and Yuki officially joined the dungeon. His first impression of it was that it was all too normal.

There are no puzzles of the devil's hospital, no absurdity of the bloody disaster, and the main task is simple and clear:

Humans want to survive, and the Zerg want to destroy them.

On this basis, the targeted evolution of the Zerg, the defense commander's attitude towards the players, and the "spark" formed a logical chain, ultimately forming a massive instance.

Global insect plague.

The strategy route that Yuki prepared for himself was very simple, and his identity as a "lurker" didn't matter at all.

Follow the Crimson Squad to plug holes everywhere, accumulate merit to exchange for equipment, kill insect swarms to gain reward points and soul energy. In this way, you can further increase your reputation, move towards the top of the defense force, find out the secret of the spark, and use the local intelligence network to find the senior sister and others.

Kill two birds with one stone, simple and happy.

Seven days later, the silver-white "Goshawk" flew away from the Black Mountains, its wings covered with corrosion marks and its fuel almost exhausted.

Yuki stood in the cockpit, staring blankly at the sky in front of him, his eyes filled with a hint of numbness.

There is nothing much to say about these seven days. After refueling the fuel rods at a fortress, the Goshawk immediately set out on a journey, fighting for thousands of miles in the northern part of the mountains, frantically plugging leaks with friendly forces.

What's strange is that the fuel rod filling process is top secret and only the captain can participate. Yuki wanted to take a look, but was almost suspected, so he had to be a killing machine.

When a wormhole is formed, the guard station reports it and, depending on the size of the wormhole, they attack together with friendly forces to kill the swarm, block the wormhole, and then move on to the next location.

The intense and monotonous battle cycle was repeated five times. Excluding the sailing time, there was almost no day without fighting, which seemed extremely long to Yuki.

Seven days was more than enough to clear a dungeon, and he had never spent seven days doing just one thing. Now, when he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with insect swarms and all sorts of disgusting spores. His hand, wielding the knife, felt numb.

During these days, he also collected a lot of clues and sorted out many questions, such as one of them:

After participating in so many wars, the Zerg never eats humans. They simply kill humans. It is none of their business what hatred there is between the two sides, but they don't eat. Are they a group of perpetual motion machines?

And I was never asked to participate in cleaning up the battlefield. What is the defense force hiding?

"Mr. Yuuki, give me a can."

Just as I was thinking about it, the bald captain handed me a can of coffee. This stuff was not comparable to the one brewed by Hayasaka, but it could make me feel refreshed.

After unscrewing the bottle cap, the bitter liquid flowed into his mouth. Yuki tilted his head slightly and could see respect and appreciation in the other person's eyes.

Yes, he really has been fighting these days, and this is the only way to gain favorability.
