The other players involved did the same; the Soldier Bee used their thoraxes to bind them together, and then, at Nuolun's signal, they took off in front of everyone, flying towards Fir City with a buzzing sound.
The temperature at higher altitudes is already lower than near the ground, and coupled with the extremely fast flight speed of the Soldier Bee, the biting cold wind blowing against everyone's bodies caused the fifty-odd players to shiver and adjust their motion synchronization levels.
The Soldier Bee have thick and sturdy carapaces with excellent insulation properties, so they are naturally not afraid of the harsh cold wind.
After flying from afternoon until dusk, Fir City finally appeared below them.
Upon reaching their destination, the numerous Soldier Bee dispersed according to their groups and began to descend in altitude.
Passing through a thick layer of snow clouds, [ Howling Pothos ] was able to get a glimpse of Fir City from the air.
The overall shape of Fir City is not round or elliptical, but rather resembles a broad bean. The recessed part is a mountain peak that is not particularly steep, but still enough to deter people from wanting to live there. A river runs through the city, and judging from the area it flows through, it should be connected to the water system "near the castle".
Under the blanket of snow, the entire city below was a vast expanse of white, making it impossible to discern which areas were of importance.
As the Soldier Bee descended in altitude, there were no other players around [ Howling Pothos ].
The entire Fir City gradually enveloped his field of vision, making it impossible for him to observe the city from his vantage point.
However, at that moment, a question suddenly occurred to him—
How do I get to the ground?
Nuolun only provided a signal flare at departure and didn't equip himself with a parachute. Furthermore, neither the ultra-low-altitude flight by the Soldier Bee nor his own parachute jump was actually a good option.
The civilians below weren't blind or deaf; the sound of the Soldier Bee flapping their wings was almost comparable to a four-cylinder engine, and the enormous parachute canopy wasn't so easy to conceal...
Considering his current position with the Soldier Bee, a chill suddenly ran through [ Howling Pothos ]'s back.
The current relationship between the two is like that of a bomber and... an aerial bomb about to be dropped.
No way?
Just as [ Howling Pothos ] sensed something was wrong, he suddenly noticed that the Soldier Bee's tightly clenched legs had loosened slightly.
He looked up abruptly, staring in astonishment at the Soldier Bee hovering dozens of meters in the air. He wanted to ask something, but found that his body had already begun to fall rapidly.
The feeling of Weightlessness overwhelmed [ Howling Pothos ], but he also discovered the problem—
What I felt wasn't complete Weightlessness, and the cold wind brought up by the accelerated descent wasn't that biting. More importantly, it felt as if there was a hand struggling to support me from my waist, preventing me from freefalling and sending me straight back to the Resurrection Tree...
He looked back and saw that a circle of silk thread had been wrapped around the center of his lower back. The thread was about the thickness of a little finger and was semi-transparent, making it difficult to spot in the dim evening light. The other end of the thread was connected to the tail end of the Soldier Bee's abdomen.
This is... spider silk?
[ Howling Pothos ] felt that she roughly understood what was going on, but a bee that could spin silk was still too exotic.
Very well, this is a very World of Disorder.
So, above Fir City at sunset, dozens of Soldier Bee hovered at a height imperceptible to humans below, releasing silk threads from their abdomens to suspend more than fifty players into the city.
[ Howling Pothos ] landed on its feet, and the silk thread at its lower back automatically detached, only to be slowly retracted by the almost invisible Soldier Bee above.
These Soldier Bee have completed half of their mission. The remaining half is to lie in wait in the warm area that Ed has set up for them outside the city, constantly watching for any pre-programmed pheromones in the air.
Fir City, [ Howling Pothos ] landed in a narrow alley.
His original landing spot was supposed to be the roof of a nearby house, but that would be too conspicuous. The unexpected footprints and footsteps on the roof would also easily attract attention. So he carefully adjusted his landing spot, cleverly avoiding the roofs on both sides, and landed in a dark alley.
Upon landing, [ Howling Pothos ] did not rush to act, but instead began to calmly analyze the current situation.
The official statement did not specify the duration of a single " Fir City Operation," meaning that the individual has unlimited free time. In terms of resources, they can collect as many high-value resources as possible, and in terms of information, they can rely on their unlimited memory.
However, every cloud has a silver lining. Although the collection ability is greatly improved compared to other games of this type, if you die in the city, you can't take anything back with you (although the information in your mind is not affected by a failed evacuation).
It really is high risk, high reward...
[ Howling Pothos ] clicked his tongue twice, then casually opened his player panel and found that most of the functions that required connecting to the real-world network (such as forums) and the World of Disorder game network ( Root Network ) had been turned off. When he opened those interfaces, only a message appeared: "Outside the Root Network service area".
Good grief, even the internet connectivity has been cut... Come to think of it, if this feature were still available, wouldn't everyone be able to just call out their location and regroup after getting off the plane—no, after getting off the bee?
These designs were not unexpected by [ Howling Pothos ].
These are things the official team should do to ensure the game is relatively fair.
However, without these features, we might really have to rely on ourselves now...
So what's the most important thing right now?
[ Howling Pothos ] hid in the alley, observing the occasional passersby outside, and quickly realized something was wrong.
My style of dress is completely different from theirs...
The composed game Master frowned, then quickly came up with a solution—
Since things have come to this, let's just have some hardship for our fellow villagers.
He returned to the depths of the alley, where he began to attempt to climb, using both his hands and feet, in a narrow passage only half a meter wide.
Climbing a straight wall without any external force or special abilities is virtually impossible.
However, the exterior walls of the two buildings on the left and right were just wide enough for a kung fu superstar to know exactly how to create a good show effect at a glance.
[ Howling Pothos ] pressed her hands against the walls on both sides, and with a sudden push of her feet, she rose to a height of about one meter off the ground.
Just as he was about to fall, his feet suddenly gripped the walls on either side.
He moved his hands and feet in a circular motion, and soon reached the second floor, where he saw what he wanted.
(The clothes of a fellow villager).
