361: Difficulty explosion!

“Oh, right, the match just started. GTI agents might appear at the southern spawn point, so be careful!”

“Got it, I’m listening. There’s been no movement so far, so no one should have spawned yet, right?”

“Hard to say. After all, our position isn’t just near that one spawn point; there might be people coming from the northern pipeline spawn point as well.”

“Indeed, we should still be careful. Speaking of which, turn off your weapon light! If GTI rats come over, we’ll be directly exposed!”

Next to a large tree not far from Xiao Yun.

Another soldier directly turned on the flashlight attached to his gun and swept it across the positions of Xiao Yun and the Asala Soldier.

The strong light hit the face of the Asala Soldier who was almost at zero distance from Xiao Yun, and also swept over Xiao Yun.

It has to be said that the timing of Machine Bro turning on the light just now was extremely startling.

If Xiao Yun had moved a bit faster, killed the soldier next to him, and not immediately entered stealth, his figure would probably have been discovered by now!

Fortunately, Xiao Yun had not made a move yet, so he naturally hadn't exited stealth.

“These Asala Soldiers in nightfall mode… are indeed more intelligent than those in the normal Dam No. 0.”

Watching the scene unfolding before him, Xiao Yun silently sighed in his heart.

The reason he said this wasn't because of their act of turning on the light, but rather the content of their conversation.

Based on the conversation of these Asala Soldiers, Xiao Yun also came to an unbelievable conclusion: they actually knew that GTI agents entering the restricted area had fixed spawn points!

This meant that the Asala Soldiers in Endless Night Dam might have more intelligence than the agents imagined.

And from the Asala Squad they encountered so far, they seemed to be a team of three, unlike the previous situations in the restricted area where seven or eight people would cluster together. Teaming up in threes seemed intentional.

“Could it be…”

Analyzing the intelligence before him, Xiao Yun also had a somewhat unbelievable conjecture in his heart.

Could it be that these Asala Soldiers in the top-secret Dam No. 0 in nightfall mode also entered the restricted area as teams, just like them?

It's just that they are from different worlds, represent different stances, and entered the restricted area not to search for supplies and successfully evacuate with them, but to guard these supplies.

In that case, the difficulty of evacuating from nightfall mode would be greatly increased!

Not only would they have to guard against other agent teams, but even an Asala Squad on the roadside could pose a threat.

“Let’s confirm it again.”

Xiao Yun thought silently in his heart, so he wasn't in a hurry to kill these Asala Soldiers. Instead, he took a few steps back, wanting to listen to their conversation for more information.

His previous hypothesis might sound a bit fantastical to others.

However, based on Xiao Yun's understanding of the restricted area and his previous experience conversing with Asala Soldiers and the Doctor, he could guarantee in his heart that although it was just a guess at the moment, things were most likely like this.

And just as Xiao Yun was thinking, the three Asala Soldiers indeed began to converse.

“By the way, we must seize this opportunity. If it weren't for the many battles between the Great Battlefield and Hafk recently, resulting in insufficient troops, how could a few Level 7 Soldiers like us be assigned such an important mission?”

“You can’t say that. Think about the teams dispatched to this restricted area; besides the Administrative District, they are all Level 7 Soldiers, which shows that Asala is severely short of people now. Besides us, there’s no one else who can come.”

“Hey, I think you’re right. And maybe the higher-ups aren’t actually short of people, but are valuing our abilities and intentionally letting us train? Maybe we’re about to be promoted to Level 8 Soldiers! Then we’ll have the chance to change professions!”

“Sigh, speaking of that, I’m troubled. I haven’t even thought about whether I want to change professions to a Flamethrower Soldier or a Machine Gunner? Is a Machine Gunner more powerful?”

“Quite the opposite…”

...

Listening to the discussion of the Asala Soldiers, Xiao Yun felt extremely shocked.

Indeed, his previous conjectures were basically correct!

These Asala Soldiers not only entered the map in teams of 3, just like their GTI agents.

But they even had rank levels and profession change missions, just like them!

In other words.

For the Asala faction in another world, and even the Hafk faction.

Their understanding of GTI might be at a similar level to the ordinary agents' understanding of them!

“No wonder these guys even know our spawn points!”

Xiao Yun felt extremely shocked in his heart; this was too impactful to his worldview!

“In other words, those Asala Soldiers encountered in the restricted area before were actually like those ordinary people in bronze and silver ranks in reality, with a shallow understanding of the restricted area, which is why they seemed so weak?”

Xiao Yun pondered silently in his heart, and at this moment, his eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, allowing him to see some close-range objects clearly.

So Xiao Yun, using his stealth, approached an Asala Soldier and observed the equipment on him.

And it wasn't a big deal not to look, but when he did, Xiao Yun was immediately even more surprised!

Because what this Asala Soldier was wearing was not the regular head armor that Machine Bro would wear.

Instead, he was equipped with a Level 3 Hearing Headset and Level 4 HMP Special Forces Body Armor!

“If I remember correctly, this body armor is a specialty of the Hafk Group! How could they be wearing it!”

Xiao Yun immediately felt shocked in his heart.

You're a small soldier guarding a construction site, and you're wearing Level 4 armor, and it's Hafk's Level 4 armor!

The HMP body armor has a maximum durability of 80 points. If you follow the normal game strategy and use Level 3 bullets to clear small soldiers, who knows how many shots it would take to penetrate his armor!

Even a small soldier is so well-equipped; are they even letting people play anymore?

After calming down a bit, Xiao Yun looked at the Hafk Soldier’s hand again…

W, T, F!

The next second, Xiao Yun felt shocked again in his heart.

“Holy crap! What’s with this semi-modified K416!?”
