So He Guang Tongchen and others quickly formed a plan and prepared to go to various places in Linxiang City to explore for clues.

Of course, this is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

In particular, I can remember some things through Mark, but others cannot.

Today, He Guang Tongchen launched a search for Linxiang City through his own words.

What about tomorrow? Tomorrow, both myself and Heguang Tongchen will reset their memories.

He Guangtongchen will still choose to search in the same place.

Zhou Baiyu may be able to rely on Mark to remember He Guang Tongchen's choice... but he doesn't want to use Mark too much.

I always feel that it is not a good thing to rely too much on Mark.

He is afraid of Mark.

…

…

The next day.

When Zhou Baiyu opened his eyes in the morning, he subconsciously thought about today's arrangements.

But soon after a reminder from Mark, he realized the dream he had had not long ago.

"Remember your dreams, my friend."

Why did Mark suddenly make a sound?

Following this idea, Zhou Baiyu recalled the dream. After a few minutes, he realized the horror of the matter.

"It turns out I'm stuck in a loop..."

An hour in a dream may only be a few minutes in reality. In this way, Mark can make a complete day into a dream and instill it in Zhou Baiyu.

But it is worth noting that not everyone can remember their dreams.

Even Zhou Baiyu will have some losses, but fortunately such losses will not affect the overall situation.

He rubbed his head:

"It seems that the president's search yesterday was fruitless."

"That's right. If the source of pollution is somewhere, it will never be found so easily."

"This is already the 22nd day, but we are still stuck in the loop, and there is still no recruitment..."

"etc!"

Zhou Baiyu suddenly thought of something.

There is no recruitment in the real world, but you can still enter the transfer station, right?

"I only thought of this now, so careless."

Zhou Baiyu's eyes were filled with joy.

"It's not a time cycle, but a forced cycle caused by some kind of force. Time flows normally..."

"At present, it seems that the whole world has been affected."

"But the transfer station is not of this world."

Although you cannot enter the advance world without recruitment, it does not mean that you cannot leave this world.

"I hope Sister Lin can give me an answer."

…

…

Transfer station.

When she saw Zhou Baiyu's figure again, Lin let out a long sigh of relief. But the worry in her eyes did not lessen.

"Little brother, you are finally here. You have not shown up for more than 20 days. We middlemen are so anxious! You are finally here!"

Sister Lin's tone was very anxious. You know, in the past few days, all the intermediaries were very confident.

"My disciple will be trapped? Impossible!"

Every intermediary thought so, but this confidence gradually disintegrated as time passed.

Instead, there is anxiety and worry.

Even despair.

If you haven't seen the forerunners in the past few days, the possibility of seeing them again later is not very high.

Zhou Baiyu probably guessed from Sister Lin's expression that the current situation was very dangerous.

Sister Lin did not show off and decided to pick out the important content and said:

"All pioneers will be in a situation of no recruitment, because the third defensive mode has begun."

"Listen, this defensive mode is very special. According to Zhong Jin and Mo Sangyu's interpretation, the defensive mode is used by 'us' to suppress humans."

"But if humans can withstand such suppression, defensive mode will bring huge rewards and change attitudes towards humans."

"You already know this, and Zhong Jin and Mo Sangyu, the two middlemen with the most knowledge, both believe that the number of defensive modes will not be infinite."

"Maybe... the defensive mode can only be used three or five times in total, no more than five times at most."

"But what is certain is that the defensive mode will become more difficult every time."

Zhou Baiyu nodded.

Judging from the second time, if you are not careful, it will trigger a global halo of intelligence reduction.

So what is certain is that the performance of the third defensive mode may not be more terrifying than the second time, but the difficulty of solving it will definitely be higher.

Sister Lin said:

"The biggest problem with the defensive mode this time is that there was no announcement. In other words, the defensive mode learned from the previous two lessons and decided to catch the first mover by surprise."

"And when the forerunners realize... no, the longer time goes by, the harder it will be to realize it. This is the most unsolvable thing."

Zhou Baiyu understood, no wonder there was no call-up, because during the defensive mode, there was no call-up.

No recruitment means no risk for the individual pioneers, but it also means no promotion.

At the same time - for the advance world, it means that the tragic future of mankind will not change.

Generally speaking, although recruitment is dangerous, it is an opportunity for mankind to change its destiny.

And time in the Forerunner world is still running out... If the real world where the Forerunners live repeats and cycles, then the Forerunners are collectively in jail.

When the cycle breaks naturally, it is very likely that the second world will be completely polluted and corruption will begin to spread to the third world - that is, this day in the real world.

Zhou Baiyu looked solemn:

"So if we don't break the cycle... it's almost equivalent to the destruction of the world?"

"I'm afraid that's the case. To be honest, I'm quite surprised that you can appear here today. I even thought that the last time we met was probably our farewell."

Sister Lin poured a glass of wine, thinking about the current situation, she also had a headache.

The middleman is stuck at the transit station and can do nothing.

So now she doesn't know how to save the situation.

Today Zhou Baiyu appeared, but tomorrow Zhou Baiyu may have all his memories wiped out.

As for the source of the pollution, there are no clues so far.

This defensive mode may be far less brutal than the last defensive mode.

But this silent circular cage is actually even more terrifying.

"The advance world is operating normally. If I go to the advance world...does it mean that I can get rid of the cycle?"

Sister Lin nodded, but her eyes were still dull:

"But without recruitment, you cannot enter the advance world. And you cannot use your version's self-selected privileges until the source of the pollution is resolved."

Last time, Zhou Baiyu relied on the privilege of version selection to reverse time and space.

But that can only be used after killing the target character Ryan.

Zhou Baiyu finally understood.

This defensive mode is indeed terrifying, almost cutting off the road to the advance world.

As long as you are in the real world, you will definitely be dragged into the loop.

The endless cycle is equivalent to sanctioning the upgrade path of mankind.

"I will see you again, Sister Lin, don't worry. I already have a way to fight the cycle."

"As long as one person can wake up from the cycle, this situation is not absolutely unsolvable, is it?"

I went on a blind date at around four o'clock. As I mentioned last time, I really didn't like the tattoo, a string of Korean characters. It was a tattoo that was difficult to wash off. The person I was interviewing this time was a very polite financial person. Women. Well... I have given up hope, but I still have to try. I won’t ask for leave.
