Rule Killing

The Forbidden Zone No. 10 stretches for nearly a hundred miles, starting from Yun Jin Lake in the west and ending at the Ping Feng River in the east.

Right on the Yun Jin Lake, three B-Class Airship, stripped of their combat formations, lay quietly at rest...

A teardrop-shaped drone flew out of the hive and quickly began to patrol the surrounding area within a one-kilometer radius.

Nearly a hundred well-trained soldiers marched out of the airship in formation.

The first soldier is holding a riot shield.

Each soldier behind him had his left hand on the shoulder of his comrade in front of him, and his right hand holding a gun with the muzzle pointing in all directions.

This is a standard special forces cover assault formation, with each person wearing a semi-enclosed, individual exoskeleton armor.

This is a special forces unit with a very high per capita cost, generally used only for infiltration of the main battlefield, or for elite rescue operations and decapitation strikes.

The cost of the two gene-based drugs is 4 million, the cost of the individual exoskeleton armor is 1.3 million, and the cost of their communication equipment, tactical helmets, tactical vests, weapons, training expenses, etc. is about 700,000.

In other words, for every soldier who dies, the combat squad will lose 6 million federal dollars, not including compensation.

Therefore, this operation, known as "Operation Extreme Night," was of a very high standard.

After confirming there were no ambushes nearby, several officers emerged from the airship. One of them held a LCD screen and examined the data. "The unknown rules within Forbidden Zone No. 10 will take effect 24 hours after entry. Therefore, the battle must be ended within 24 hours."

The officer continued, "According to intelligence, the Lord of Daybreak should have already entered Forbidden Zone No. 10. We'll advance towards the location of the Dragon Fish and release reconnaissance spiders for a thorough search. There are suspected B-Class targets among them, and our companion Qing Zhun suspected to be an A-level bodyguard. Once we make contact, we'll immediately activate Tactic A."

Officer: "Remember, the target is extremely aggressive. In the event of an encounter, immediately provide cover for the war robots to advance to within 100 meters of the target. Do not engage in close combat at long range."

"Received," a lieutenant said.

The officer said, "The family will not acknowledge this operation. If any of you are captured, please remember that this is your personal action and has nothing to do with the family. If you are separated from the team, you will have to find your own way back to base."

"Understood!" the soldiers shouted in response.

After saying that, 36 war robots emerged from the airship and, together with the soldiers, fiercely invaded Forbidden Zone No. 10.

The panting of soldiers running, the mechanical noise of hydraulic shafts moving, and the metallic clang of cold firearms colliding with exoskeleton armor all mingled together.

Nearly a hundred "beasts" walked awkwardly into the battlefield. With the help of individual exoskeleton armor, everyone leaped across as if they were on the moon.

Mechanical spiders surged out of the box like a tide, accompanying them.

They need to find their prey and kill it before the fourth unknown rule takes effect.

They only have 24 hours.

"Remember the rules?" Qing Ye stood at the edge of Forbidden Zone No. 10, instructing Ma Jingjing, "Make sure you remember these three rules. If you accidentally break any of them, run to me immediately. Of course, I can guarantee that you won't get hurt if there's any special danger, but if you do something stupid and court death, no one can help you."

Drill faintclounder

Ma Jingjing nodded hurriedly. He had bought the second rule from the black market, which now corresponded to the three rules that Qing Ye had told him.

At least for now, the tour guide seems reliable.

This expedition was partly to find ways to make money, and partly to satisfy their adventurous spirit. These four college students were hiking enthusiasts and had hiked through Hoh Xil during their summer vacation before this expedition, but they hadn't finished.

Before entering Forbidden Zone No. 10, the four people felt a mixture of fear and excitement.

This is Forbidden Zone.

It should be noted that among all Time Walker, perhaps only a handful have ever entered Forbidden Zone.

Upon their return, their experience at Forbidden Zone No. 10 will once again become a rich topic of conversation among their classmates.

All the students would gather around them and listen to them tell the story.

Qing Ye glanced at the four of them and said, "Let's go, be careful."

He stepped into the dense forest first, and the moment he entered, the air temperature plummeted, as if everyone had been swept by a cold, damp wind.

This is the sign for entering Forbidden Zone.

Qing Chen slung his hiking backpack over Zhang Mengqian's shoulder. "You don't want the path I've given you. If you want to take another path, you'll have to pay a higher price. To be honest, I don't recommend you try this, but it's your life, and you have to choose for yourself."

"Yes, I know," Zhang Mengqian nodded.

As he spoke, the little boy struggled to follow behind Qing Chen, and because of the weight of his backpack, he would fall if he lost his balance even slightly.

But after falling, he didn't say a word, and just struggled to get back up.

Seeing this, Xiao Yu and Li Mengyun Zhang Mengqian n't help but say to Qing Chen, "How old is he? Why are you, an adult, making him carry such a heavy thing? Can't he carry it himself?"

Qing Chen was silent for a moment. "Yes, yes, yes..."

Shadow was amused. He now particularly enjoyed watching others roast Qing Chen, and Qing Chen being unable to retaliate.

Rule 1: No arguing.

At this moment, Zhang Mengqian picked up a thigh bone scattered in the bushes. "Boss, it's a human leg bone. There's a bunch more on the ground."

As he spoke, he picked up a skull with a normal expression.

When Xiao Yu and the others saw this scene, they were so frightened that they screamed.

They couldn't understand how a seemingly harmless little boy could so casually handle human bones.

This little boy is not as fragile as they imagined!

To be honest, even Qing Chen sometimes overlooks the fact that Zhang Mengqian is a child who managed to survive alone in the slums. She may have seen more of the darkness of humanity than he has.

"Yes, they are all human remains," Qing Chen said, looking into the distance where he could easily spot several human skeletons.

There are bloodstains on the tree trunk from human scratches.

The most distinctive feature of Forbidden Zone No. 10 is that it is never short of ambitious people and gold diggers, nor is it short of wronged dead and ghosts.

Although Forbidden Zone 001 is more dangerous, fewer people go there. If 50,000 people visit Land No. 10 every day, then at most only one or two thousand people visit Land No. 001 each year.

Therefore, although Number 001 was the most dangerous, he did not kill the most people.

Based on the types of people who died in Forbidden Zone 001, most of them were highly skilled and daring masters.

Those who died in Forbidden Zone 010 were mostly ordinary gold prospectors and low-level superhumans.

Qing Chen looked at Ma Jingjing: "You four just mind your own business and don't meddle in other people's affairs, understand?"

Ma Jingjing was taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered and said, "Okay, okay..."

The shadow was even happier.

Qing Chen suddenly turned to look at him. "Are you stupid?"

The shadow raised an eyebrow. "Yes, yes, yes..."

Although the shadow is not afraid of Forbidden Zone, if the rules are triggered, it can simply open the Shadow Gate to leave.

The problem is that once the rules are triggered, it takes 24 hours to get rid of the negative effects and return to this place unaffected by attacks.

This will cause you to miss out on many interesting things.

The shadow looked at Qing Chen: "Do you admire me a lot?"

Qing Chen raised an eyebrow. "Yes, yes, yes..."

Shadow: "Don't you admire me, your older brother?"

Qing Chen: "Yes, yes, yes..."

Shadow beamed, "Am I the best brother in the world?"

Qing Chen: "Yes, yes, yes... Do you have some serious illness?"

Shadow: "Yes, yes, yes..."

Qing Ye and Qing Qu were laughing so hard they were practically in stitches. It was the first time they'd ever seen their boss's shadow being pranked like this.

Before the two could laugh for long, Zard put his arm around their shoulders from behind and chuckled, "Did you two eat farts? Why are you laughing so happily?"

Qing Ye and Qing Qu looked like they'd swallowed flies. "Yes, yes, yes..."

When will this cycle of revenge end? Once this rule is started, no one can stop!

Everyone chatted away until 11 p. m.

We entered Forbidden Zone No. 10 at 6 PM, and by 11 PM everyone was still standing on the edge, barely moving at all.

In the end, everyone, unwilling to admit defeat, sat on the ground and began racking their brains to come up with crooked tricks.

I've almost forgotten what they came here for.

Ma Jingjing and the other three looked at each other in bewilderment. How could they be playing around in such a serious Forbidden Zone place?!

Can you all be serious? This is the Forbidden Zone No. 10, where countless people have been killed!

Can't you be serious for once?

There isn't a single decent person in this group besides the four of them!

Meanwhile, the mysterious combat team has rapidly advanced to the lake where the Dragon Fish is located.

They gradually slowed down, approaching silently.

Everyone held their breath and maintained a communications silence.

According to intelligence, the Lord of Daybreak's purpose in coming here is for the Dragon Fish, and he should come directly here.

At this moment, the captain at the front of the column raised his arm, and all the soldiers knelt on the ground, raised their weapons, and entered a state of alert.

Countless mechanical spiders crawled around them, making a rustling sound on the ground.

After a while, when the mechanical spider arrived at the lake, the soldier in charge of controlling it suddenly froze.

There was nothing by the lake, not even a trace of recent human habitation—not a single thing!

The soldier made tactical hand signals, but no target was detected.

The captain was taken aback. How could there be no one here? Shouldn't they be here?

Could it be that they encountered some danger and were delayed in their journey?

Or perhaps they detected their decapitation operation in advance?

Impossible.

The captain made a tactical hand gesture, holding up two fingers: Plan B. If the target is not found near the Dragon Fish, then the other party is very likely to have gone to the Jingshan Tea area as soon as possible.

But they were running out of time. In a few hours, the fourth unknown rule would take effect, and they might all die here.

The Dragon Fish originates outside the Forbidden Zone, while the Jingshan Tea originates inside. Rather than going in to search, it's better to wait outside.

Therefore, what the captain needs to do is retreat first, and then infiltrate again tomorrow.

The target will definitely come to collect the Dragon Fish; they just need to come in and check on it every day.

At this moment, the adjutant showed his watch, pointed to the time, and meant: it's almost midnight, we need to complete the second rule first.

Rule Two: Before entering the Forbidden Zone at midnight on your first night there, you must tell the Forbidden Zone a secret that only you know.

In fact, reaching the birthplace of Dragon Fish is not very dangerous.

The captain nodded, made a tactical hand signal, and everyone immediately scattered, whispering something to the air.

Another soldier whispered, "I stole my neighbor's underwear."

He suddenly felt a piercing pain in his ankle, as if he had been bitten by some poisonous insect.

Soldier:"???"

He thought it was a secret that no one knew!

The soldier died.

One of the soldiers said softly, "I've cheated on my wife."

The soldier died.

Another soldier whispered, "I like men."

The soldier died.

The captain was stunned for a long time. He had checked with the soldiers several times before coming out on this mission to see if there were any secrets that no one else knew.

Only those confirmed to have secrets were allowed into the Forbidden Zone, while the few without secrets remained on the airship.

As a result, before they even saw their target, seven of them died on their retreat!

The attrition rate is as high as one in ten!

There will be another chapter at 11 PM.
