Day by day in the infinite game

Chapter 253 253. The first global linkage
At this time, it was earnestly persuading its friend, a giant octopus with a length of more than ten meters, to let it "patrol" around the ship under the sea to prevent reckless fish from accidentally approaching the ship and accidentally crashing into the propeller. Shattered to pieces.

Octopus didn't want to pay attention to this old friend who either didn't speak or talked like he was chanting sutras.

I don’t know how it got so hot-headed in the first place that it made me such a sharp-tongued friend.

Maybe it’s because Zhang’s long life that lasted for hundreds of years was too lonely. There was a friend who lived longer than himself who kept in touch and looked after each other. This feeling made Zhang feel so nostalgic...

In the end, the octopus still entrenched itself obediently in the sea, driving away the occasionally approaching schools of fish without any complaints. Its long tentacles stretched out and drifted with the waves.

……

The blocked dark energy gathered more and more and began to erode the sand and rocks on the seabed.

The protective cover of the ocean cleaning system covers the entire ocean water body from the sea surface to the bottom of the sea, excluding sand, gravel, soil and caves on the bottom of the sea.

This secluded corner, under the fine sand and gravel soil, is a place where many marine creatures choose to lay eggs and breed offspring. The infiltration of dark energy will cause all fish eggs to lose their activity.

The marine creatures wandering around the seabed looking for food were vaguely aware of the problem and began to gradually become restless.

After swatting away wave after wave of fish that were dizzy and approaching the propeller on the bottom of the boat, the octopus, which was swimming freely at first, was so tired that it could no longer lift up its tentacles.

The fish schools were running around with their eyes closed as if they were desperate for their lives, panicking like frightened birds.

The originally clear and clear water was also stirred up and became turbid.

"What are you doing? You don't want to live anymore if you don't have eyes, right?" It tried hard to raise its tired tentacles and wave away the menacing fish, and its body kept changing colors in anger.

"Lao Yuan, Lao Yuan! Oh, I thought it was some good job to make you miss me, but I am so exhausted! My arms and legs are almost broken!"

Hearing the sound of the wind, the hawksbill turtle swam over from a distance to check the situation and laughed unkindly.

"Hey, it's coming, it's coming, brother octopus, what's going on?" After living for nearly a hundred years, it has never seen such a battle. It was as noisy as the human stories its great-grandfather told it. ——A magical monkey named Sun Wukong is causing trouble in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea.

Look at these fish and shrimps, no matter what type or size they are, even the shark, the archenemy of the shark, which used to chase it with its mouth wide open, looks like it is in a hurry and at a loss. .

What happened to make even the biggest shark turn a blind eye to it?
When the octopus saw its old friend who was complaining about it appeared in front of him, he immediately transformed into a yelping monster, drooping his tentacles with a sluggish expression on his face.

"...Go away and ask what happened." Yuanxu endured it again and again, but he still couldn't hold it back and slapped the octopus that was squawking in front of him aside.

……

The seabed here is in chaos, and the players on the boat are busy harmlessly treating the dead fish and garbage that are constantly floating on the sea with the waves, cleaning them up, and preventing subsequent pollution.

Scientific researchers are fully armed and conducting dissections and tests in the laboratory to analyze the reasons for their mass deaths.

As expected, high concentrations of dark energy were detected in their bodies without exception.

The dark energy gnawed away at the vitality in their bodies from the inside out, and when they were dissected, a stench filled their nostrils.

Scientific researchers immediately became vigilant and urged crew members and players to take personal protection.

At this time, the players also felt the tremor coming from the protective cover.

It is the wave produced by the impact of the marine creatures on the invisible protective shield when they return from a long journey to forage.

The main function of the ocean cleanup system is to block and clean up pollution. However, the overbearing dark energy, like bone-attached maggots, cunningly "possess" marine life, making it "a trap" and making it difficult to carry out cleanup work.

The current situation is that if you want to clean up the dark energy, you have to abandon the marine life that may still be saved, and carry out humanitarian and harmless treatment along with the polluted ones.

The invisible protective shield does not block the flow of sea water. Plankton, seaweed, fish, etc. that are not polluted by dark energy can still flow unimpeded, and the barrier is just in vain for them.

But once the presence of dark energy is detected, it will be blocked from the protective shield.

In other words, the growing and growing team of marine creatures outside the protective shield that are collectively "hitting the wall" are all more or less contaminated by dark energy.

What is before people is undoubtedly a difficult multiple-choice question.

The atmosphere became stagnant in an instant.

Tang Qinqin gently pulled Song Yuanze's sleeve and motioned for him to lower his head.

"Aze, can you contact foreign players? This is obviously a global crisis. I think before things get worse, we should gather all our strength to fight against this dark energy." She whispered in her ear.

They have always been accustomed to fighting as a team, and they always subconsciously ignore that players are global.

Since the game mission this time is global, it is time for the whole world to face it together.

"Well, let me try." Song Yuanze, whose ears were slightly red, smiled and pinched Tang Qinqin's cheek.

"Tsk tsk."

"Young is good."

Two untimely voices sounded next to him.

Then there was a burst of good-natured laughter.

Before the warm atmosphere here could even raise pink bubbles, I was shocked by the reality and ran away without a trace.

Tang Qinqin blushed and pretended to be calm.

Although Song Yuanze did not have the contact information of foreign players, he relied on the country and quickly obtained first-hand information through diplomacy.

It’s easy to handle once you have the contact information. You can invite us into the game and let’s fight against the dark energy together.

Players from all over the ocean took part.

There are even many players from other regions who are prepared for danger in times of peace and have a long-term vision. They also rushed here from thousands of miles away.

This is the first "global linkage" among game players.

The calm sea suddenly became lively, and one huge ship after another set off from various seaports and gathered in the same high seas.

Under the sea, in the shadow of the ship, the giant octopus faced increasing work pressure, and finally became "overwhelmed". He grabbed a few confused strong men and brainwashed them, and picked up his best friend Tortoiseshell, who was almost exhausted and foaming at the mouth. The turtle ran far away.

"Old Yuan, what are you doing? It's so good. What are humans doing? Such a big movement! Is the chaos in our underwater world caused by them?" The octopus finally stopped in a safe area, feeling tired. Panting.

"..." The hawksbill turtle also looked confused, but in his heart he felt that his friend had discovered the truth.
