Chapter 1078： Status of the residents of the imperial capital

June 4th, the capital of China.

At 7:30 in the morning, the 28-year-old Chang Rui came out of the room of the rental house.

Still sleepy, he first glanced at the sky outside the window.

It seems to be raining today, the sky outside the window is gray, and the air is extremely hot, making his already dull mood even more depressed.

"But fortunately, the Skrulls didn't call." The outside world was the same as usual, which made him feel a little better.

Chang Rui lives in a shared apartment of more than 90 square meters. In the apartment, besides him, there is a shared roommate, who is his colleague from the same unit, Lin Meng.

Three days ago, that is, on June 1st, like most people, he and Lin Meng were filled with uneasiness and panic.

The two big men, like most of them, went to a nearby square to stand with other human beings, communicate with each other, relieve the pressure in their hearts, and spend the most difficult day.

Chang Rui only remembered that the square was in chaos on June 1st.

Some people couldn't bear the pressure and howled and rolled all over the square, and some men and women gathered together, leaving all etiquette and shame behind, doing some indescribable things in front of everyone in the square, and there were still people join in.

Afterwards, Lin Meng joked that this was a "stacking arhat", because the white bodies were stacked as high as a floor, which really made them gain insight.

But after the June 1 scare, these two days have been much better.

The first line of defense built by humans on Mount Fuji has always stood firm, and there is no sign of being breached until now.

Ordinary people are slowly recovering, starting to go to work and play games again, and their daily life is slowly recovering.

Chang Rui and Lin Meng work in a large fusion power plant in the eastern suburbs of the imperial capital.

They were nervous and fearful for two days on June 1 and June 2. They were still called on June 3 and returned to work in the power plant.

Today, June 4th is the second day of work, and it is 7:30 in the morning. They have to arrive at the unit on time at 9:00 am to continue their ordinary social animal life.

…

"Lin Meng, wake up! If you don't get up, you will be late." Chang Rui reached out and knocked on the door of his roommate's room.

But there was no movement in the room at this time.

It wasn't until Chang Rui knocked on the door of the room again, and with more force, that the roommate grumbled unwillingly: "Got it, I'll get up now...fuck, aliens are calling us Still have to go to work."

Chang Rui smiled and didn't answer, and walked to the bathroom to wash up and go out.

But before that, he didn't forget to turn on the TV in the living room to listen to today's morning news.

Now is not the same as before.

Before the Skrulls invaded, Chang Rui and his roommate never watched the news, and he didn't even care about foreign wars.

But now, listening to the morning news has long become their habit. Even if there is nothing valuable in the news, just listening to it can be reassuring.

The TV in the living room was ringing, and it was still the familiar female voice of the announcer.

Of course, there are no entertainment channels on TV, except for the news, there are all kinds of science and education films, some about Blue Star and some about Skrull Star.

Morning news is to summarize and broadcast the major events that happened in the world yesterday. Moreover, the ratings of this program are extremely high, and most Chinese citizens will watch it.

"Old Chang, did something serious happen? The Skrulls didn't call, did they?" Lin Meng walked out of the room and said in a low voice.

He stretched out his hand to comb the hair that had become messy after a night's sleep. He hasn't had a good night's sleep since the official start of the war.

While washing his face seriously in the bathroom, Chang Rui replied: "It was said in the morning news that the situation is the same as yesterday, and the Skrulls still haven't broken through the first line of defense. It is expected that we can defend the first line of defense for a long time. .

The news also said that the mood of people all over the world is gradually stabilizing, and all walks of life are slowly returning to normal. "

"That's good." Lin Meng nodded, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief: "I was so scared to death two days ago, and finally got better these two days."

He glanced at the gloomy weather outside, and continued joking: "Looking at the gloomy day, I thought the Skrulls were calling! ...Old man, hurry up and wash your face, don't wash your face like a cat playing with water. "

"You have to take your time to wash your face, otherwise you will feel uncomfortable all morning if you don't wash it clean. You can do something else first." Chang Rui was unmoved and continued to wash his face seriously.

Chang Rui spends at least 10 minutes washing his face every morning. In this matter alone, he exceeds 99.9% of Blue Star citizens. But he didn't intend to change anything, this is his unique habit.

"Okay, I'll go to the bathroom first." Lin Meng knew this habit of her roommate, smiled and walked towards the bathroom.

Their rental house is separated from wet and dry, and the sink is just outside the toilet.

Lin Meng walked to the toilet, stretched and yawned at the same time: "Ha, I really don't want to go to work!"

"You have to go to work if you don't want to go to work." Chang Rui rubbed the facial cleanser in the palm of his hand very ritually, and responded at the same time: "We work in a fusion power plant. If we don't go to work, the electricity consumption in the rear will be affected. In fact, the power consumption in the rear is okay, but if it affects the front line, it will be a big problem."

"Of course I know what you said... It's just that we have to work 6 hours a day, and we have to set aside 12 hours to play games. Now the 12 times the time flow is gone, and the day is very tight." Lin Meng Closed the toilet door, but his complaints came through the toilet door anyway.

On June 1st, the 12-time flow rate of the "Evolution" game ended.

At midnight on that day, the time in the game will be synchronized with the time outside the game, and there will no longer be a 12-fold time difference.

In the past, Blue Stars entered the game for 12 hours each time, physically feeling like playing in the game for 6 days.

But after June 1, 12 hours into the game feels like 12 hours of playing.

Although the various incomes, monster drops, and experience gains in the game have been greatly improved, but because the time has become faster, the players live in the game one by one nervously, not as comfortable as before.

"Hey, I don't dare to run a business in the game now. I only have 12 hours a day. This time is not enough for leveling...Old Chang, have you reached level 60?" Lin Meng said in the bathroom. Li asked.

Level 60 is the fourth level in the real sense.

Chang Rui shook his head and said: "Not yet, the experience is still 1.4% short. After eating a new batch of [Sunshine] today, I will definitely be able to reach level 60."

"Wow, that's great. I'm still a few days away from the fourth level... By the way, I found a temporary copy when I downloaded the game just now. Do you want to join me after going online at night..."

Didididi—

At this moment, Lin Meng's words were interrupted by the voice from the TV.

The sound from the TV was very urgent, as if to remind them that something important had happened!
