Li Huailin and the others followed the programmer who was leading the way. They moved very carefully in the forest, but they moved very quickly. It was obvious that they would not only face the possibility of being pursued from behind, but also the possibility of being attacked by other NPCs.
Yes, Li Huailin and the others really saw NPCs chasing after the group of programmers. Just a while ago, Li Huailin saw a few NPCs flying in the sky, and it was obvious that they were investigating something below. However, the programmers in front of them noticed them in advance and notified them, so there was no problem after they dodged for a while.
Of course, Li Huailin was not very afraid. Anyway, summoning the Jade Emperor would not kill them. It was just that killing one might attract more people. He did not know how many people there were in this group of NPCs. If they really got entangled in a fight, he did not know how much time it would take. Of course, Li Huailin and the others did not have so much time to waste, so they just hid from the NPCs.
After walking for a while, the group arrived at a col. Li Huailin felt that this place did not seem to be very far from the direction of the previous battlefield. It seemed that they had just made a small detour. The programmer walking in front searched around a little, then turned over a cover covered with turf on the ground. Soon, he saw a passage leading down. It was obvious that this was the secret base.
As soon as they entered the door, Li Huailin and the others saw four devil-like programmers standing in the passage. When the programmers saw Li Huailin and the others, they were stunned for a moment, then suddenly became excited.
"Wow, wow!" Although Li Huailin and the others did not know what they were talking about, it was obvious that they were very happy. This was a normal situation. Obviously, Li Huailin and the others were here to save people. It was normal for the people who were saved to be happy, okay? So what was the mentality of those people who attacked them before?
Obviously, this group of people knew that Li Huailin and the others were here to save people. Each of them was very excited. One of them also hurried inside as if to tell the people inside the cave the good news.
Li Huailin and the others quickly followed the programmers to the interior of the underground cave. The interior space was actually very small. It was originally a cave that had been remodeled. There were many magical lights inside, but the place still looked a little dim.
Li Huailin and the others walked into a relatively large room, where there were already a lot of people waiting. Li Huailin glanced around and found that there were about 11 or 12 programmers standing in front of them. Li Huailin clearly remembered the leader of the group. It was the person who claimed to be Zhang Youdong, whom he met last time. Although he had changed his clothes, Li Huailin still remembered his characteristics.
"Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh On the other hand, Zhang Youdong was much calmer. He walked over and shook hands with Li Huailin.
"Great, you're finally here." This time, Zhang Youdong directly prepared a pen and paper. He directly wrote a paragraph and communicated with Li Huailin. Of course, Li Huailin could finally understand it.
"What's the situation now? Why did you come here? What's going on with those guys? What's the situation with these NPCs? " Of course, Li Huailin also had a lot of questions. Although he had his own guesses, he still wanted to listen to Zhang Youdong's detailed explanation. So he also took a piece of paper and wrote to Zhang Youdong.
On the other side, Zhang Youdong obviously knew that he couldn't waste time, so he immediately began to explain the current situation to Li Huailin. Of course, it was all written down. After spending a lot of time, Li Huailin finally understood what was going on.
According to what Zhang Youdong said, the cause of the current situation was, of course, the collapse of the game world. Zhang Youdong also didn't know the reason for the collapse of the game world, but the timing was about the same as he expected. Over the past month, the game world had almost collapsed. Currently, only the part that Li Huailin saw was left. The other parts seemed to have collapsed completely, and the remaining parts would probably disappear completely in less than a week.
However, Zhang Youdong didn't expect that this group of NPCs would actually react to the game world's collapse. That's right, Zhang Youdong also confirmed what Peanut had said. In the previous games, some so-called intelligent NPCs had preliminary artificial intelligence programming, so they had a certain learning ability. And this group of intelligent NPCs had indeed discovered that the game world was collapsing. Based on some unknown calculation results, they began to search for the cause of the world's collapse and even issued related quests.
Of course, at the beginning, this actually had nothing to do with the programmers. Originally, they lived here and had their own identities. In theory, they shouldn't have suspected them. Zhang Youdong also didn't care about this matter. Anyway, the game world was destined to collapse, so they could only wait for Li Huailin's possible rescue.
But the problem was that there was an accident. There was a big problem among the programmers. According to Zhang Youdong, some of them seemed to have gone crazy due to the pressure and suddenly started a riot. Not only did they directly attack the other programmers, but they also felt that the matter wasn't big enough and directly admitted that they were the culprits of the world's collapse.
And of course, the NPCs who knew about this wouldn't let them go. Now, almost all the living intelligent NPCs were gathered in the area that hadn't collapsed. In order to prevent the world from being destroyed, they also joined forces and prepared to directly deal with the culprits of the world's destruction, thinking that this would prevent the world from collapsing. This included not only the programmers who started the riot, but also Zhang Youdong's group.
As for why these programmers did this, according to Zhang Youdong's explanation, it was because the pressure was too great. It seemed that they didn't believe that Li Huailin would come back to help them, thinking that there was no hope for them. Here, the border of the world's collapse was getting closer and closer, and it had already spread to the city where they were. So in this situation where death was gradually approaching, these people began to have a mental breakdown and started to go on a rampage.
And the current situation was almost what Li Huailin and the others saw. Currently, the rioting programmers and the NPCs who were chasing after them were running around outside, fighting almost as soon as the two sides met. The rest of the people could only hide and wait for Li Huailin's group to arrive.
Previously, Li Huailin's guess was basically right. The previous programmer was arranged by Zhang Youdong to go undercover on the other side, mainly to grasp the other side's movements, and also to provide support when Li Huailin and the others appeared. It can be said that Zhang Youdong's side was indeed a bit desperate. If it weren't for Li Huailin, this hope might have collapsed long ago. Fortunately, now Li Huailin and the others really came.
While reading the note handed over by Zhang Youdong, Li Huailin also explained the situation to the Jade Summoning Emperor next to him. After explaining everything, Li Huailin also looked at the Jade Summoning Emperor and the others, "How is it? Do you accept this explanation? "
"Do you think something is wrong?" the Jade Summoning Emperor asked after listening to Li Huailin's words.
"Did that group of people go crazy?" Li Huailin touched his chin, "But it is indeed a bit strange that they attacked us. In theory, the other side only went berserk because there was no hope left. Now that we are here, they will at least discuss it with us and not attack us directly."
"Maybe they really went crazy," Peanut said. "I have seen such a case. After all, the edge of collapse is getting closer and closer every day. This kind of pressure is unparalleled. If they really go crazy, it is normal for them to not recognize their own family. So, it is not surprising that they attacked us."
"Hmm … is that so?" Li Huailin nodded.
"You still think there is a problem, right?" The Jade Summoning Emperor could understand Li Huailin better, so he said directly, "If that is the case, someone must be lying, right? Do you suspect that this group of people is lying?"
The 'this group of people' that the Jade Summoning Emperor mentioned was, of course, the group of programmers in front of him. Anyway, they should not understand what Li Huailin and the others were saying, so the Jade Summoning Emperor said it directly.
"But it doesn't seem like they are pretending to be happy to see us." Li Huailin said, "But they might not understand the specific situation … It is mainly because of the person in front of me …"
"Hmm?" Everyone subconsciously looked at the person in front of Li Huailin called Zhang Youdong. Zhang Youdong obviously noticed everyone looking at him, so he immediately wrote, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
"Tell me your current plan first," Li Huailin wrote, "I think you have a plan."
"Do you have a way to get us out of here?" Zhang Youdong asked immediately.
"There is a way." Li Huailin nodded as he wrote, "It is not very difficult, but tell me your plan first."
"That's great." Zhang Youdong immediately wrote, "But what is the plan you are talking about? Do you need all of us to gather together?"
"Gather together?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned. Then, he suddenly asked, "Not all of you are here now?"
"Yes, there are some people hiding in another place," Zhang Youdong wrote.
