Chapter 442 Return!
"Flame Dragon Armor..."
As soon as these four words came out, Su Xia's face twitched.
Deep in my memory, some vague childhood memories suddenly came to my mind.
"Brother Su, how about this name?" Li Defu asked hurriedly.
"Hmm... nice name." Su Xia had nothing else to say but to praise.
"Hehe, when all the mechas are gathered tonight, I will call North, Broken Sword, Binglei, Sister Hongyan and the others over, and perform the 'armor fusion' in front of them and see their shocked expressions!" Li Defu was very proud and excited.
"Brother Su, how about you also get a set of mecha?" Li Sihua asked Su Xia.
"Yes, even Li Defu has a mecha, so you should have one too, Brother Su. However, we can only get a third-level armor at best. We can't control any higher-level armor..."
Everyone was talking at once, discussing getting Su Xia a set of protective gear to wear for self-defense.
Although Su Xia is a pharmacist who can kill people without being seen, his body is still too fragile, it is just flesh and blood.
With a set of mecha protection, his survivability can be greatly improved.
"No need. Have you forgotten my identity?" Su Xia said with a smile.
"What is your identity?"
They were all stunned for a moment, their brains unable to wrap around.
Yuwen Shuxue was the first to react. He patted his thigh and said hurriedly, "Brother Su is different from us. He has a job title!"
“That’s…right…”
The other guys suddenly understood what Su Xia meant.
Su Xia's current official identity is not only the manager of the pharmacy, but also the second-in-command of the Coral City Intelligence Department, and he was appointed by Yu Tuo himself.
In Coral City, he is now an absolute celebrity, and many people in the surrender camp want to get close to him.
With his status, why would he need the help of several roommates to build a mecha?
"Brother Su can contact Anluo Company directly and order a mecha from formal channels." Director Yu Wenshuxue said with emotion, "Although Anluo Company has a bad reputation, its technology is excellent. The mechas it builds are definitely much better than those from informal channels like us!"
"Yes, we thought too much."
"As expected of Brother Su..."
The mechas from regular channels, just in terms of metal materials, are much stronger than those from ordinary small workshops. Not to mention other aspects, there is no comparison at all.
Among all the data, the service life of the jet power module is the most intuitive.
The third-level mecha produced by Anluo Company has a service life of up to 1,200 hours.
As for the products of other small companies and workshops, their lifespan rarely exceeds one thousand hours, and those that can exceed eight hundred hours are considered of excellent quality.
In this regard, several roommates could only envy.
"Follow Brother Su and you will have a good life. Remember, this is the truth and creed of our studio!"
"That's right, find some time later to frame these words and hang them on the wall!"
“…”
After a few casual chats, the topic returned to the main topic.
During this period, in addition to Sijidao, the guy who has been making trouble, some other major events have happened in the game.
For example, players from two large cities in the north started fighting, which has lasted for seven or eight days and has not yet ended, and the total number of participants has exceeded 10 million.
Of course, the main reason is that some guys die and come back to life, and come back to life and die again. One person can create dozens or even hundreds of people.
The reason for the fight was also very violent. It was said that it was for a resource map in the uninhabited area between the two cities. At first, only two small teams fought, and then more and more people were involved, and it gradually evolved into a melee among dozens of teams, and finally became what it is now.
"After fighting for more than a week, both sides are a little tired. They have been fighting all the time and have been unable to develop. It is said that they are looking for someone to negotiate, and there should be a result soon." Li Defu introduced the specific situation to Su Xia.
“In fact, this melee may be an opportunity for northern players to form an alliance.” said Director Yuwen Shuxue.
"Yes, players from the eastern, southeastern, and northwestern regions have begun to form alliances," He Lie added.
" As for our southwest area..."
"If it weren't for that dog Sijidao blocking our way, we might have been the first to form a grand alliance!"
After all the talk, the topic still revolves around that guy named Four Seasons Rice.
The reason is simple. That guy has been committed to building influence in the entire southwest region, letting his name spread from Coral City to dozens of cities large and small in the entire southwest.
No matter what, he is an "official" player and is a senior player with a position in the game.
If Bikini Bottom and the Resistance Alliance didn't have Su Xia, they really wouldn't be able to compete with Four Seasons Rice.
"All regions have begun to form alliances? Are they planning to capture some super dungeon?" Su Xia asked everyone.
Without sufficient interests and consistent goals, it is difficult for scattered players to establish a qualified alliance, and most of the time they fight on their own.
Li Defu said in surprise: "Brother Su, don't you know?"
"What?" Su Xia looked at him.
"A few days ago, the world's first player to reach level 50 appeared." Li Defu immediately operated on his mobile phone and brought up a page for Su Xia.
"oh?"
Su Xia looked over and saw a big "fifty" written in dark red font on the page.
This is a celebration page to celebrate the first player in the world to reach level 50.
Looking closely, the player's name was "Lin Shan", the leader of the North Wind Organization player team appointed by Su Xia. He now resides in the Oasis Camp and is considered the manager of the Oasis Camp.
This young man is very responsible, accountable and conscientious.
Su Xia chose him among many players to train, which was a good move.
"Lin Shan's level has been the best in the world since level 41, and he has been leading ever since," said Li Defu.
"He is on the same side as us, and he often picks fights with Four Seasons Rice. He has argued with Four Seasons Rice on forums, and has broken Four Seasons Rice's defense several times."
Several roommates were afraid that Su Xia didn't know Lin Shan, so they introduced him to him.
Of course, what is important is not only Lin Shan, but also the important node of "Level 50".
As we all know, the game company has announced earlier that the current upper limit of the game level is 60, and any higher level is in an unknown range.
And now, Lin Shan has broken through to level 50, only ten levels away from reaching the maximum level and reaching the ceiling of the entire world.
After all, the name of this game is "Look Up at the Stars", so many game enthusiasts are speculating that after breaking through level 60, some wonderful changes may occur on this planet, such as... an opportunity to reach the starry sky?
On the same day, as if to arouse the curiosity of players, the game company also released a poster on its official website.
The background of the poster is a deep and boundless starry sky.
There is only a very short line of words on the entire poster - the door to a new world is about to open, and the starry sky will no longer be looked up at!
“It was this poster that got everyone excited.”
"Now everyone is working hard to upgrade."
"But the difficulty of leveling up in this crappy game is just too great, especially after level 40, I can't level up for several days."
"According to Lin Shan, it becomes more difficult after level 50..."
Now, players from all over the world are forming alliances, naturally to seize the opportunity of that new world.
After all, since the game was launched, many players have not had the first-mover advantage and have not been able to become the first group to enter the game, thus missing out on the opportunity to become stronger and rich.
Now that the new version is about to be released, they naturally have to find ways to grab the first batches of resources for the new version.
"Another thing to worry about is the robots."
"Those robots want to go to space more than we do. If there is a chance to go into space, they will definitely compete with us for it."
"So, another very important factor in forming alliances among various places is to guard against the mechanical race!"
Since the launch of the game, players have already understood the faction confrontations, power divisions, organizational divisions, etc.
Everyone knows the nature of the mechanical race.
This race has always been domineering, and no one else will interfere with what they set their eyes on.
If that day really comes, players will have no choice but to fight those broken robots. The worst that can happen is that they will die a few more times. Even if all their equipment is destroyed, it doesn’t matter, they can just start over!
Today’s players are no longer the little bugs that could be easily crushed to death when the server was first launched.
"Brother Su, what do you think?" Li Defu asked, "A few days ago, we contacted the founders of several other major alliances , and they all felt that a war might break out in the future, between us and the mechanical race."
"Yes, it is true."
Su Xia nodded slightly and said, "But there is a fatal misunderstanding in your thinking."
"What's the misunderstanding?"
"The mechanical tribe will take action first." Su Xia said seriously.
"What?" Li Defu was stunned. "No way... the current situation is pretty good..."
"Don't be fooled by appearances. Be prepared. The Mechanical Tribe will not allow players to have such uncertainty for a long time."
Su Xia didn't want to worry too much about the players' affairs. His current focus was on the human race's rear areas, which were the several large human gathering places.
Several of my roommates are hardcore online game players, and they all came from the days when they played in black internet cafes for RMB 1.50 an hour.
They are better at dealing with matters concerning player teams than Su Xia.
"Do the current players have the ability to cross the sea on a large scale?" Su Xia suddenly asked.
"not yet."
Li Defu shook his head and said, "If they really had this capability, those guys from the other two continents would have attacked us long ago, instead of climbing over the wall and talking nonsense on our internal forums like they do now."
"Well...we should make plans for this early. We can't wait for others to call us." Su Xia said.
"Brother Su, don't worry. We are always paying attention."
Apart from these things, the only thing worth paying attention to recently is the actions of the mechanical race against the masked monster.
This is a major event worldwide and I don’t know how many people have been attracted to it.
When talking about the masked man, Li Defu seems like a different person. After all, he still calls himself the masked man's apprentice.
He looked excited, eloquent, and gesticulating as he described the masked man's rampage in the mechanical encirclement, as if he was one of the people who had personally experienced it.
"That night, my master beat Moser half to death with one punch. Moser was so scared that he knelt down on the spot, crying loudly, hugging my master's legs and begging him to spare his life..."
Li Defu talked incessantly, with saliva spurting out of his mouth.
Su Xia was speechless again. The creature that could make Moser cry with just one punch probably had not been born yet.
He stepped back to the window, sat in the dim dawn, opened Taobao on his mobile phone, selected some birch sap, and clicked to buy.
After a while, Li Defu finally finished speaking and the atmosphere in the dormitory returned to normal.
"Don't waste time, hurry up and get your mecha together!" said the head of the department, Yu Wen Shuxue.
"Yes, it's my turn next, hurry up!" He Ju urged impatiently.
A few of them hurriedly cleaned up the garbage in the dormitory, then returned to their seats, put on the auxiliary equipment they bought, and entered the game.
As usual, Su Xia returned to the bed, turned on the bracelet, and passed out in a burst of electric shock...
…
“Huff…”
The sound of wind and snow floats in my ears.
Su Xia opened his eyes and found himself back at the place where he had logged off before. There was snow all around, the sky and the earth were hazy, and the whole world had an extra layer of blur in the wind and snow.
He opened the map, determined his location, and then set off, heading south in the blizzard.
The world on a snowy day lacks many signs of life.
Su Xia was like a lone goose, breaking through the layers of obstacles of strong wind and blizzard, her speed never slowing down, her hair and clothes flying wildly in the wind.
The northern land is cold, but much better than the Far North.
About half an hour later, Su Xia crossed this seemingly endless snowy area, and his vision suddenly became wider.
After more than two hours, the snow on the ground below became less, and more and more green vegetation appeared in Su Xia's eyes.
During this period, Su Xia avoided several teams of patrolling mechanical soldiers.
"The Mechanical Tribe still refuses to give up. There are patrols in this deserted place. I wonder how long their remaining resource reserves will last?"
Su Xia didn't know how much spiritual energy resources the mechanical race had stored, but he thought it shouldn't be much.
In this extreme confrontation, in the end, the mechanical race will be the ones who can't hold on.
He remained alert and continued to fly south, leaping over hills and rivers, across the vast plains, getting closer and closer to Coral City.
At around ten o'clock in the evening of that day, Su Xia finally crossed the center of the continent and returned to the southwest region of the continent.
After entering this area, Su Xia could clearly feel that the patrols of the mechanical clan had become more frequent.
"I saw three patrols in ten minutes..."
Su Xia took a few deep breaths. He had already traveled a thousand miles, and he couldn't afford to have an accident right at his doorstep.
He carefully avoided the search of the mechanical clan, his speed sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes just standing still in mid-air, and approached the Coral City little by little.
The last section of the road was particularly dangerous, and the density of the mechanical patrols had reached an insane level.
In Su Xia's perception, there were metallic creatures active everywhere in the sky, on the ground and even underground. The entire night was filled with the danger of death, and one would fall into a trap if one was not careful.
“Boom…”
More than a dozen air superiority combat robots cut through the night sky, their blue tail flames dazzling and their engines roaring like thunder.
Less than half a minute after they flew past, another group of small flying mechanical creatures flew by, like a swarm of locusts, buzzing in the air.
Su Xia carefully crossed the encirclement of the mechanical creatures, as if he was walking in an endless minefield, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead unconsciously.
Time passed slowly, the night gradually faded away, and it was six o'clock in the morning of the next day.
According to Su Xia's original calculation, he would have returned to the pharmacy by now, but now he is still in the suburbs of Coral City, about one thousand meters away from the urban area of Coral City.
"The last stretch of the journey..."
Looking at the city lights not far away, Su Xia breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that he's here, he doesn't need to worry about anything anymore.
[Will of the Wind]
He immediately used his psychic talent to enter the different space, and used that thirty seconds to quickly cross a distance of a thousand meters, enter the city, and head straight for the old street where the pharmacy was located.
In the different space, he was as fast as a gust of wind, leaving the whole world behind him.
After thirty seconds, Su Xia's body slowly appeared in an alley in the city, wearing tattered clothes, similar to a homeless person on the street.
Under the cover of darkness, he shuttled through the dilapidated alleys, his body hunched over like a strange ghost. It took him half an hour to finally reach another street near the old street.
"There may be someone lurking around the pharmacy..."
Su Xia's eyes flickered as she thought of the previous death threat letter incident.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Su Xia did not hesitate and used his talent again to enter the different space and went straight to the pharmacy on the old street.
brush--!
Su Xia flashed and returned to the pharmacy in less than twenty seconds and appeared in her room.
"call……"
It was not until this moment that Su Xia finally relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.
A familiar smell rushed into my nose, a mixture of various scents including animal specimens, herbs, and the fragrance of ancient wood. It was not unpleasant at all, but rather refreshing.
Su Xia took a deep breath, then fell on the soft bed. Thinking of her experiences over the past half month, she couldn't help but sigh.
“Finally I’m back!”
