359: All Night Mode
“Examiner He, are you preoccupied with something?”
Xiao Yun had only walked halfway when he suddenly turned back and quietly stared into He Yan’s eyes.
“No?”
He Yan looked puzzled, not knowing what Xiao Yun was talking about.
“Why do I feel like you’re hiding something from me?”
Xiao Yun continued to ask.
“N-no?”
He Yan stammered, clearly nervous.
Seeing this, Xiao Yun couldn’t help but grow suspicious.
From the beginning, He Yan had been repeatedly reminding them to bring more equipment, and this anxious behavior seemed very abnormal.
However, Xiao Yun couldn’t figure out the specific reason.
He just felt that in his very first match, he had entered the map with only a big red ammo pouch, and he had seen that kind of situation before.
Why would He Yan be so worried now just because he wasn’t bringing equipment?
Is this Endless Night Dam really that dangerous? Or is the danger somewhere else?
“Master, Master, what’s wrong?”
Just then, Lu Xueqing suddenly turned her head and asked.
“Nothing, let’s go, let’s enter the restricted area and see.”
With that, Xiao Yun led the three of them to the pavilion. After identity verification by the staff and waiting for the other five teams to be ready, they entered the restricted area one after another.
Meanwhile.
What Xiao Yun and the others didn’t know was that behind them, Song Qiuyun’s team was secretly following with a smirk.
“Sigh…”
He Yan, who was not far away, saw this scene and could only secretly pray that the two teams wouldn’t encounter each other in the restricted area.
After all, as long as the two teams didn’t meet, even if Song Qiuyun’s team was strong, they wouldn’t pose any threat to Xiao Yun and his two teammates.
“What’s wrong, Examiner He?”
George saw He Yan standing there in a daze and walked over to ask.
“The assessment has started. It’s your turn to monitor the data today, isn’t it?”
With that, George pointed to the tablet in He Yan’s hand.
This tablet was the device used to connect to the wristbands of Xiao Yun and his two teammates, detecting the data generated by the team.
“Yes, please rest assured.”
The fact that Xiao Yun and his two teammates were not fully equipped could not be changed, so He Yan immediately snapped out of it and entered a serious and responsible work state.
......
“You have entered Zero Dam (Eternal Night)!”
“Current location: Zero Dam (Eternal Night) - Southwest Evacuation Point.”
“Current drop rate: Top Secret”
“Current game end time: 29 minutes 59 seconds”
“Tip: Please complete evacuation before time runs out!”
Inside the restricted area.
When Xiao Yun opened his eyes, he found that everything in front of him was pitch black.
Overhead, dense dark clouds covered the already faint moonlight. Looking around, the only light source was the Cement Factory in the distance.
“That’s right, this spawn point…”
Seeing his current location, which was a standard spawn point in Dam No. 0, Xiao Yun suddenly remembered something.
In a normal Dam No. 0 restricted area, both the spawn points and the number of people entering were not fixed. Therefore, when Xiao Yun started a game and entered the restricted area, he would often spawn at points closer than the usual Administrative Building’s first position.
He even remembered one time, he entered Dam No. 0 and spawned directly at the construction site next to the West Building of the Administrative Building.
In such a situation, the person who entered the Administrative Building first could be said to have seized an absolute advantage.
If Xiao Yun was fast enough, he would have already searched the Administrative Building and left by the time other teams slowly arrived at the Administrative Building.
However, in the nightfall mode of Dam No. 0, the situation was different.
Taking this match as an example, the number of teams entering the restricted area was limited to 6, and Xiao Yun’s spawn point was at the regular point in the southwesternmost corner of the map.
“It’s so dark here… Master, where are you?”
“Xue Qing? Xiao Yun? Are you next to me? Why can’t I see you?”
Just as Xiao Yun was about to activate his Destiny Skill to check the spawn points of other teams, voices from Liu Shihhan and Lu Xueqing came from behind him, almost simultaneously.
Upon hearing them, both seemed a bit panicked in this pitch-black Dam No. 0.
Seeing this, Xiao Yun didn’t speak. With a thought, he silently pulled out a golden lighter from his safety box.
The flame immediately illuminated an area of about half a meter in diameter around Xiao Yun, and Liu Shihhan and Lu Xueqing finally saw him.
“Hey, so you were right in front of me! Why didn’t you say anything?”
Liu Shihhan quickly ran behind Xiao Yun, complaining a little.
And Lu Xueqing also quickly ran over and grabbed Liu Shihhan’s arm.
With the light, they weren’t as scared as before, but hearing the chirping of insects around them and the occasional calls of unknown birds, they still felt some fear.
“There should be many patrolling Asala Soldiers ahead. You two wait here.”
Xiao Yun said, handing the lighter in his hand to Liu Shihhan.
Before entering the restricted area, based on his experience from his previous life, he had already anticipated that the light here would be dim, making it difficult to see clearly.
However, among the equipment provided by He Yan, Xiao Yun hadn’t seen any night vision helmets yet, presumably, this item hadn’t officially appeared on the exchange.
And although the equipped submachine gun and rifle had flashlights, he didn’t dare to use them casually.
After all, the Asala Soldiers in this Eternal Night difficulty were not to be trifled with.
If he were to shine a flashlight haphazardly, he might be fine, but Liu Shihhan and Lu Xueqing might be in trouble.
Therefore, he decided to forgo Lu Xueqing’s high luck in this match.
First, ensure the safety of the three of them, then consider evacuation, and finally, consider the match’s earnings.
Given this situation, it was much more suitable for Xiao Yun to act alone.
In the pitch-black night, as long as he activated stealth and silent movement, and used Luna’s detection arrow skill to reveal all the surrounding Asala Soldiers, he could clear the way without taking damage and enter the high-resource area.
As for the other operatives, Xiao Yun didn’t need to worry at all.
He could simply activate a Destiny Skill to check the location information of everyone at that moment.
Thinking of this, as Xiao Yun activated stealth and ran towards the construction site west of the Substation, he also activated his Destiny Skill, preparing to check the locations of the other teams in this match.
However, the scene that appeared before his eyes next made him frown instantly.
The skill panel, which should have been very clear, was now completely black!
“Is this Destiny Skill bugged?”
