Chapter 1139: Two Paper Boxes
Chapter 1139: Chapter 1139: Two Paper BoxesZone 014 has never encountered a random instance with an entry in the air before. The reduction of flights is entirely due to the increase in uncontrollable factors brought by the increase of Players, and air rescues are extremely difficult. However, there has never been a case where an entire airplane just disappeared in flight. Therefore, the control tower reported to the Special Defense Department immediately, and Players from the Special Defense Department arrived quickly, along with the well-informed relatives of that aristocratic young man.
While they were pressuring the Special Defense Department, the Player who came to carry out the mission checked the list of registered personnel and discovered the name Xu Huo, immediately calling Chief Wu.
Chief Wu had just arrested the people on the list provided by Xu Huo, and soon after, Xu Huo’s flight disappeared shortly after takeoff, leaving him feeling breathless. He hastily summoned personnel and rushed to the airport.
Professor Lan and his group hadn’t left yet. After hearing the news, they repeatedly stressed, "Xu Huo’s safety must be given top priority!"
There was no need for Professor Lan to say this; Chief Wu was reluctant to lose such a talent from Ting City. However, when he called Nie Xuan, Nie Xuan didn’t plan to go with him, reasoning:
"His luck is too strong. Even if all the Special Defense Department’s people were to die, he wouldn’t. I will leave for Jing City in twenty minutes."
As an ordinary person, Chief Wu couldn’t comprehend the changing mindset of Players, but Nie Xuan’s change was apparent even without a professional psychologist. Seeing his weary appearance, Chief Wu found himself unable to offer advice, especially since Nie Xuan, compared to other Players, is tied to a ticking time bomb.
The matter didn’t just involve Xu Huo; it could also be the emergence of a new type of random instance. So, on his way to the airport, Chief Wu requested support from headquarters. The technical department at headquarters connected with Ting City to try remote decoding of the sudden incident.
While the Special Defense Department commenced urgent work, Xu Huo and the others on the plane were ignorant of it all.
Most passengers were doing as usual, just as when they first boarded the plane. However, not long after, the aristocratic young man sitting in front suddenly stood up, strode into the aisle, glanced over the Players sitting in the back rows, and then angrily exclaimed, "Dare to steal my Prop!
This seemed clumsy to both the original owner and the one hiding the stolen item. That’s why the tall Player immediately grabbed the blond Player. Meanwhile, other Players started checking themselves, and several discovered extra items in their clothing.
This was like stirring up a hornet’s nest; the blond Player appeared somewhat panicked, and after evading the tall Player using a Prop, he retreated while saying, "This has nothing to do with me..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he unexpectedly stepped on something. Turning around, he clearly saw it was a Prop, lying at the feet of another Player, who seemed to have just woken up from sleep, rubbing their temples with fatigue and irritation.
But before he could speak, that person’s motions abruptly stopped, and they fixed a sharp gaze on him.
The blond Player startled for a moment and, while backing away, inadvertently bumped into something else. He thought another Player had made a move, but glimpsing with his peripheral vision, he realized that all the Players had backed away, staring at him—or more precisely, at something behind him—with grim expressions.
What rose behind him was a milky-white box about the size of a human head, appearing to be made of paper, but when the blond Player bumped into it, the box was immovable as if rooted in the air. A meter away from it was another box of the same shape but black in color.
