Chapter 352
The next morning.
The first batch of players who had reached Level 6 and accepted the mission arrived at the mission location at the designated time.
Stay up late, who had just reached Level 6, found their respective class trainers and learned the third skill. However, because they had just received the mission to go up the mountain and to the countryside, they could only wait for the second batch of goods to be delivered.
As a small leader of the Qilin Hall, wind-chasing Wolf had been arranged to participate in this escort operation. He could act together with the miracle Guild’s Shandu team.
Miracle’s players in Shandu were quite well-off.
Since the Guild leader Windchaser had given everyone 200 coins at the start of the game, everyone did not have to worry about not having enough to eat. They could put all their energy into completing quests and leveling up. They even saved up money to buy guns much earlier than the others. Later on, some miracle Guild players from the neighboring guilds arrived in Shandu one after another. However, by then, the players born in Shandu had already established their own advantages, so it was no longer a problem for them to bring in the players who came later.
Now, a 20-man team from the miracle Guild, led by the Guild leader, Windchaser, and the core member, King of leftover, was escorting the supplies to the weeping Valley.
“Don’t relax on this escort mission. Don’t think that this is just a mission to earn money and contribution points. I heard from Qilin Hall’s Hall Master Bob that the real danger is on the road, and he told us to pay attention to where we are going.”
The miracle Guild’s players furrowed their brows in confusion. “Pay attention to your feet? Is there anything I need to pay attention to?”
Zhui Feng got close to everyone and whispered,”It’s said that there’s something evil under the Gobi that will attack the livestock of the caravans. Therefore, there’s a high chance that we’ll be attacked on the way. Everyone, be on your guard!”
After hearing wind’s words, the players “solemn expressions suddenly became excited.
guild leader, are you saying that we can start the battle immediately? ”
“Battles are not child’s play. Don’t compare this game with those simple numerical values from before. The battles in destiny test one’s ability to adapt to the situation. Don’t panic when we really fight later and listen to my command! I repeat, listen to my command! You’re all miracle’s old men, so don’t make any stupid mistakes.”
“guild leader, don’t worry. we’ll definitely listen to your commands,”
Although the players said so, wind still wasn’t confident.
Although the people from the miracle Guild had bought guns earlier, they were doing missions in the city. There was basically no chance for them to shoot. Now, the slums were like an iron plate, and the security was good. It was a blessing from their ancestors to be able to get a shooting mission.
The members of the miracle Guild were wise enough to keep quiet. After all, this mission involved contribution points. The higher the contribution points, the more the bonus would be divided. Giving other guilds or small groups a reminder would only make them set up defenses in advance and snatch the funds in the prize pool.
The first wave of supplies had been prepared beforehand and were now being transported by the convoy.
The players were assigned different missions according to the location where they received the mission.
The players who received the mission from the Transportation Department were mainly responsible for clearing the stones on the road that could easily cause the tires of the trucks to burst.
The gravel in the Gobi was slightly harder. If the wheels of a fully-loaded truck rolled over directly, it was easy to get a leak or a flat tire. At this moment, they needed the players at the front to help clear the gravel that would affect the vehicle and move it to the side.
by the way, why don’t we just build a Gobi Desert road from shadu to weeping Valley? that way, we can transport goods faster and support faster. The players who were picking up the stones couldn’t help but grumble.
Compared to the players who were guarding the convoy behind, this mission was even more tiring. It was like planting rice seedlings, and he could not even straighten his back.
“You don’t understand. It’s obvious that you don’t understand the history of Shandu. More than 20 years ago, the machinery faith and the wasteland gang had once attacked together. At that time, the command Headquarters was set up in weeping Valley, and the Gobi was the battlefield. One was that the maintenance cost of building a road in the Gobi was too high. Moreover, the wind and sand were strong at night, and the road would soon be buried by sand and stones. Secondly, by building roads, it would be unimpeded for the enemy spies to infiltrate into shadu. If the enemy Army attacked, the Gobi could also be used as a buffer zone. If the roads were built, they could only drive straight in. “Third, the weeping Valley has been abandoned for a long time. There are no facilities on the road except for a few scattered villages, so there is no road built.”
It wasn’t just the grumbling player, but the other players around him also had an expression of realization.
“But this time, link has returned to the castle of wind in the weeping Valley and even set up the Druid’s base camp there. Now, he’s building a city. All of this is sending a signal. A battle between the sand City and the machinery faith is inevitable.”
The players were instantly excited. The clash between two forces was definitely exciting and would lead to a lot of plots. Most importantly, the players loved to fight and kill. Otherwise, why would they level up, learn skills, and buy equipment? When the two sides fought, the players would have a stage to perform. How could the rewards from completing quests be more comfortable than killing monsters and dropping equipment?
There were also many players escorting the convoy. The convoy was basically a kilometer long, and there were several rows of players guarding on both sides.
At the end of the convoy were the players who were in charge of the safety of the rear.
In a truck.
Xingxiu was chatting with Yomi happily.
it’s been a long time, Heavenly King of the Western District. It’s only been three months, but your hair has grown and your style of dressing is getting more and more pleasing to the eye. Xingxiu looked at Hades and found that his originally short hair had grown to his earlobes. He looked valiant and heroic, but at the same time, he had a little more feminine charm. At the same time, the style of his clothes had also changed from men’s clothing to bright and colorful clothes. She changed from leather boots to high heels.
She was wearing a pair of black sunglasses and had lipstick on her lips. She looked more like a City Beauty.
He exuded a strong scent of perfume, and one could tell that it was alpaca perfume.
Star constellation’s jaw almost dropped from the shock of the netherworld’s change, and she sized it up without blinking.
With his hands in front of his chest, Huang Quan glanced at the TV station’s vehicles that were in charge of filming and said in a flat tone, when I was under Moroes, my task was to look after the West District for him. Although no one dared to cause trouble, in order to suppress his subordinates, I had to prepare for battle every day. Naturally, I didn’t have time to take care of it. Now, I’m going in and out of the TV station every day, managing the newspaper, and responsible for the safety of Nicole and Anna. Being affected by the two of them, I have more time and naturally want to try a different style.”
Xingxiu’s eyes widened in disbelief.”I always thought that you didn’t like this style, Yingluo.”
Netherworld’s Red lips curved up slightly as she smiled, ” “so there’s something you can’t predict?”
Star constellation looked at the other party and smiled, ” “There are many things I can’t predict. For example, I can’t predict what the boss is thinking.”
Yomi glanced at the Inhumans on both sides of the convoy and asked, ” then, can you calculate why we went through so much trouble to hire thousands of Inhumans to transport the supplies? ”
In her opinion, there was no need to go through so much trouble to transport the supplies. Moreover, the Lin Financial Group had enough people, so there was no need to spend money to hire Inhumans. In her opinion, this was completely unnecessary. However, Gloria did not doubt Link’s orders. She just felt that she could not figure it out. It just so happened that she was on a mission with xingxiu today. When she met her old colleague, Yomi also asked her the question that had been bothering her.
Xingxiu smiled slightly and didn’t keep him in suspense, directly saying, ” you should have heard of the legend of the Gobi, right? the boss has basically solved the problem of the wild beasts in the Gobi. However, there is still another problem, the desert earth Dragon, Pi Xiu.
so many resources and Inhumans, making such a big commotion, are they preparing to fish out the Earth Dragon King? ” Yomi immediately understood Link’s intentions.
recently, there had not been any news of wild beasts in the gobi. however, desert earth dragons were usually buried deep underground. in addition, they were annelids, which made it difficult to detect them with thermal infrared rays or sound equipment. cleaning up had always been a big problem. In addition, there was also the legendary Earth Dragon King that had lived for many years, which made the people who came to the Gobi on edge for many years.
“Then, when the Earth Dragon King appears later, should we also take action?”
boss’s orders. star constellation shook her head. unless the core goods are in danger, we won’t take action at any other time.
The core goods of this wave were the saplings in the truck container where star constellation and netherworld were located.
These saplings were nourished by the tree of God. By injecting natural energy, Druids could make these saplings grow into big trees in an instant. They could even use natural energy to guide the direction of their growth, directly forming corresponding houses and buildings. This was the most crucial material for the construction of the divine Wood City, and after ordinary trees were infused with natural energy, they would grow uncontrollably without any means of shaping.
Yomi glanced out of the window and sighed, ” I hope the Earth Dragon King will appear today. After the establishment of Shenmu City, the machinery faith will be the next target. I might even have the chance to see the top-tier mechanical masterpiece running in the gale desert in my life-the machinery city.
As soon as Yomi’s voice fell, xingxiu felt a regular vibration coming from the ground.
As an astrologer with strong perception, star constellation’s expression immediately turned serious. you’re right. You’ve been secretly studying Feng Shui recently, haven’t you? ”
Yomi rolled her eyes at xingxiu and didn’t answer. Instead, she turned her head and stared at the Inhumans curiously, wanting to see how they fought.
The ground shook slightly, and all the vehicles began to slow down and stop under the command.
The players on both sides of the convoy also felt the earth hum and rise, and they looked around in a daze.
Wind immediately turned the submachine gun on his back and held it with both hands, ” be alert, something is coming out!
the miracle guild’s players immediately took out their pistols and opened the safety. they were highly focused, and their eyes kept scanning the ground, hoping to find any unusual movement.
The players on the left, right, and in the parking lot all stopped in their tracks. The unusual movement served as a reminder to them.
However, the players who were clearing the stones at the front were already dizzy.
Not to mention an earthquake, he might not even be able to stand up straight.
f * ck, why is this rock jumping around on the spot? ” A player was about to lower his head to pick up the stone, but he saw the stone on the ground rise and fall as if it was jumping on its own.
When the other players heard this, they glanced around and were about to say that their eyes were playing tricks on them. However, when they turned around, they saw a cobblestone on the ground that had been eroded by the wind and sand. It was indeed shaking on the ground, and it would even shake up and down occasionally.
it’s true. What’s going on? ”
The player could not help but squat down like a child observing an ant hole. He lowered his head and stuck out his butt, wishing he could stick his head directly to the ground.
The surrounding players threw away the stones in their hands and tilted their heads to look in the direction of this player. They did see the movement of the Gobi.
however, it was a little awkward.
In the next second, the rumbling Gobi suddenly split open, and a desert earth Dragon emerged from the ground. Its round mouth with three circles of sharp teeth opened and grabbed the head of the player who was squatting on the ground looking at stones. Then, it began to shake wildly.
the players were dumbfounded. this was a delivery mission. what the hell was this disgusting thing that suddenly appeared in the desert?
It had a meaty body that was 50 centimeters wide and two meters long. The wriggling rings on its surface were clearly visible, and it looked like an earthworm that was countless times larger. However, unlike earthworms, it had a round, open mouthpart that forcefully grabbed the player’s head. The range and frequency of its movements were unusually high, catching the player off guard.
A moment later, the desert earth Dragon tore off the player’s head.
Half of his spine, which had been pulled out by the tremendous force, was clearly visible, along with blood. His body was also twisted and deformed because of his spine being pulled out.
Blood splattered all over the ground, and some of the players who were close could even feel the warm smell of blood on their faces.
The bloody scene was so real that it was terrifying!
Many players suddenly felt their stomachs turn, and they were so nauseated that they wanted to vomit.
The players who were a little further away had their minds blank as they stood in place, dumbfounded. They forgot to take out their guns and even forgot to escape.
finally, the first player started to turn around and run. the second and third players quickly reacted.
The terrifying underground creatures, the brutal hunting scene, and the real bloody scene crushed the players ‘brains, making them lose even the slightest ability to resist.
the players at the front began to scatter, but more desert earth dragons rushed out of the ground like a fountain.
It bit the players ‘arms or legs and tore them apart with great force. In an instant, many players’ broken limbs and remains appeared in the desert.
Many desert earth dragons also appeared from the side, suddenly leaping out from under their feet to attack the players.
Wind was already level 12, so he reacted the fastest and shouted,””pay attention to your feet and stay away from the shaking!”
Da, da, da ~
The bullet was shot out like water, and the desert earth Dragon was quickly hit. After its ring-shaped body was hit, it spewed out a nauseating yellow pus.
With the addition of Windchaser’s aura, the miracle Guild players panicked for a short time and began to shoot at the desert earth Dragon.
The gunshots and the atmosphere infected many players. While they were running, they remembered that they had guns and turned back to fight.
Star constellation and yellow spring turned their heads and looked at the battle between the Outlanders through the left and right Windows.
” although they were flustered at the start, they adjusted quickly and quickly organized an effective counterattack. ” Star constellation commented honestly.
At this moment, the two of them changed their expressions.
this was because they felt a strong vibration. then, the scenery outside the car that was parked in the gobi seemed to be slowly changing. this was the feeling of the car being tilted.
Even the air buzzed, and the sound waves spread layer by layer.
The two of them saw that the flat desert not far away was now like a small hill.
It was obvious that the earthquake was not caused by an ordinary desert earth Dragon.
The Earth Dragon King said,
it’s here!
P.S. [I have to go out during the day. I’ll update today and work hard on writing when Wanjun comes back.]
