Chapter 198 Late Comers, I Have Good News and Bad News to Tell You.
"who!"
Wei Long used his tactical flashlight to sweep towards the entrance door of the warehouse.
A chubby middle-aged man stood at the door, waving.
"Hi! My soldiers, how are you?"
Xigou: "What the hell!? Lord of the Shadow Guard?"
Before everyone could react, a phantom passed by everyone and landed next to the shadow guard at an extremely fast speed. It raised its left hand and beat its chest hard.
Demon Fox: "Lord! Is there anything you need me to do for you? Just ask!"
Everyone:==(●●|||)
Tang Ying, who had always been unsmiling, was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Has he always been like this?"
The peak team all covered their faces.
The corner of Cheng Shaofeng's mouth twitched slightly: "Oh, I just found your traces while wandering around. I entered the Red City to take a look. By the way, what are you doing with all these people around here?"
Of course he wouldn't say that he wanted to gain experience by following the players, as that would make him look stupid.
Demon Fox: "We are conquering a security door, Lord. Do you really have no need for me to help you? I can do anything!"
"No, let's go, take me to see the door you conquered."
The demon fox confirmed that no task had been triggered, shook his head regretfully, and led Cheng Shaofeng to the security door.
After several people introduced what they were doing to Cheng Shaofeng, they then observed the expression of the Shadow Guard Lord.
Although they theoretically deduced that there must be something behind this door, some bugs were normal for a game under testing. For example, the real lord lay dead every day, forcing the game planner to create a shadow guard lord to work.
Cheng Shaofeng: "Okay! Your observation skills are very good. I also think there is something behind this door."
Players reason based on the logic of the game, but Cheng Shaofeng knows that this is a real world, and there will definitely be good things in it if you use your brain a little bit!
Xigou snapped his fingers: "OK! Since the lord said there is something inside, let's continue! My sage time has passed, and I will drive piles for another three minutes!"
Polar Bear: "I don't have enough time, how about a few times?"
Lintang: "Hehehe~Xi Gou's reputation is well-deserved."
Xigou: "???"
"Why do I feel like what you two are talking about is not in the game?"
Cheng Shaofeng watched as Xigou fired wildly at the keyhole of the steel door, causing iron filings to fly.
After 3 minutes, the keyhole was enlarged a little more.
Tang Ying measured it and said calmly: "It has advanced 2mm. Keep working hard. According to the current progress, if we are optimistic, it will be opened in another 8 hours."
The thin dog's hand trembled slightly. This would have to cut off the skin of his hand.
Seeing Lao Bai go up and spin again, Cheng Shaofeng said: "So...you need a very strong point-like destructive power, right?"
The demon fox nodded: "Yes, Lord, it is best to use an attack that exceeds the capacity limit of the material."
Cheng Shaofeng: "Okay, get out of the way and I'll give it a try."
Everyone was shocked.
The lord is coming!
Everyone got out of the attacking position and looked at Cheng Shaofeng.
"out!"
Black energy emerged from Cheng Dafu's body, a shadow was peeled off from his body, and Cheng Dafu fell softly to the ground.
Xigou: "The true form of the Shadow Guard Lord has come out! The Lord needs to be serious!"
Yes, Cheng Dafu's physical fitness will limit the full performance of the shadow guard.
Shadow Guard has second-level spiritual qualities, while Cheng Dafu has not even reached level 10. His strength, agility, and intelligence are all far behind Shadow Guard. He only uses the energy system in his body, so it is not affected much, and To use physical attacks, the Shadow Guard's body must come out.
Otherwise, as soon as the shadow guard exerts his force, while the enemy is still fine, Cheng Dafu's body will be unable to bear it.
The shadow guard took out two rare long swords from the back of the fainted Cheng Dafu, which were the lord's exclusive weapons made by Xiaoxiao.
Both of them have physical attack attributes, and all energy bonuses are abandoned in order to deal extreme physical damage.
The inlay selected is a conventional decomposition item of mutated creatures: [Ruptured Claw].
【Broken Claw】
[Inlay (for melee weapons)]
[Physical damage +4]
[Physical damage +12%]
[Grant skill: Slam]
[Smash the enemy with an overwhelming blow]
[Energy consumption: 22]
[Cooling time: 3.5 seconds]
[Cause 240% weapon damage]
[Crit damage +30%]
This one, which is inlaid on both swords, mainly focuses on the basic physical damage bonus and percentage bonus.
The built-in skill [Slam] is okay, but it is far inferior to the high-level [Rhythm Strike]. Now some players who play the [Barbarian] profession choose this inlay as their main output.
Although it is not as powerful as the non-CD spell machine gun skill given by the three artifacts of land reclamation [Ruptured Magnet], [Scorching Embers], and [Cold Iron], it still gives physical players an explosive skill.
clang!
The Shadow Guard's first blow made a striking sound stronger than the sound of a thin dog, which shocked everyone's ears.
Fang Gang: "The attributes of such a powerful power lord are still high."
After the first blow, the Shadow Guard's sword glowed slightly with white light.
clang!
With the second blow, the light on the sword added another layer and became thicker.
Now most people have observed it.
Xigou: "Huh? This is [Rhythm Strike]?"
The Shadow Guard's third attack arrived in the blink of an eye.
Clang! ! !
There was a sharp sword cry, and the tip of the sword in his right hand was inserted into the lock core with a pale white light!
bass!
Just poke it in 10cm!
Lintang: "Ah~ The lord has stabbed the bottom of the lock cylinder!"
Everyone was also shocked by the Lord's attack power. The thin dog penetrated 5mm in 3 minutes, while the Lord penetrated 100mm in 3 times. The difference was a bit too obvious.
The shadow guard pulled out the sword with force, took a look and shook his head: "Not enough, not enough. It doesn't even touch the oil in the lock core. You have to poke it deeper to trigger the switch inside and let all the oil flow out."
Clang clang clang!
Clang clang clang!
Clang clang clang!
Cheng Shaofeng's attack was very fast and powerful, making the lock cylinder crackle and burst into flames.
puff!
Gacha~
After triggering the [Rhythm Strike] 4 times, the lock cylinder was opened by Cheng Shaofeng, and an unknown switch was touched. After a mechanical rotation sound was heard from inside, the heavy door became loose.
Wei Long said excitedly: "It's open? It's open, right? Xiaoying, please check if it's open!"
Cheng Shaofeng pulled out his long sword. He had penetrated the lock cylinder, and he could already feel the space behind the door.
Tang Ying stepped forward and used the iron rod to turn the lock core, causing the door to tremble.
"It's open! But there are a lot of rust marks caused by long-term storage. It takes everyone to work together to pull the door out!"
There was a large ring-like handle outside the door, and everyone worked together to pull the door hard.
Cheng Shaofeng looked at the effect of his attack with satisfaction, with a smile on his face.
‘Sure enough, my hard power is still stronger than that of the players. ’
Squeak~~~
Heavy friction sounds came from the top and bottom of the door, and it was finally pulled out by the players, revealing the room inside.
Everyone looked at Cheng Shaofeng, waiting for him to speak.
"Let's go and take a look first."
The shadow guard just summoned cannot die outside, otherwise he will not be able to lead Cheng Dafu to level up this day.
The player dies once. It doesn't matter.
Wei Long turned on his tactical flashlight and shined it on the safe house, revealing what was inside.
A dusty hall.
There is a row of skeletons and countless sundries stacked in the center of the hall.
Wei Long just wanted to pick one up and take a look, but when he touched it, countless things in the hall turned into powder, leaving only non-degradable plastic.
Picking up a plastic bag casually, the words on it had disappeared, leaving only the fragile appearance. Wei Long gently used force, and it turned into a handful of silver plastic particles in his hand, which turned into reflections in the dark hall. The stars are falling bit by bit.
A strong feeling of great changes appeared in everyone's hearts.
After confirming that there was no danger, everyone entered the hall.
After walking around, Tang Ying introduced: "This is indeed a classic pre-war apocalyptic safe house building, built to avoid extreme situations. Based on the debris and general shape on the ground, we can infer the material reserves here. It’s very plentiful, but these people hiding here still starve to death.”
A young man from the special agent team stood up from the ground: "There are a total of 11 skeletons here, 8 men and 3 women. According to my simple autopsy, I can conclude that the death time of the owners of these skeletons was roughly 150 to 200 years ago. Except for the three female skeletons, Except for a small deformation of the crotch, there are no obvious signs of trauma. Excluding death from impact and strangulation, the position of all the bones at the scene shows that the cause of death is likely to be starvation."
Wei Long introduced: "This is forensic doctor Qin Riyue."
Cheng Shaofeng felt very satisfied as he watched the secret service team integrate the information here in an orderly manner.
‘What is professionalism? This is called professionalism! ’
At this time, the Peak Team also listened to the analysis of many professionals from the Secret Service Team and stopped interfering.
Leave professional things to professionals.
Lin Tang just sighed: "This game is so realistic, and the scene is just like the real thing. I feel like I am watching a criminal investigation film and solving a secret room murder case."
The demon fox approached Cheng Shaofeng and asked: "Lord, did you just use the [Rhythm Strike] technique? It seems that the movements are very smooth and powerful! How far did you practice to reach this level? ?”
Cheng Shaofeng was still in the shadow guard state at this time, ready to fight with the highest combat power at any time.
"Oh, I have practiced [Two-Hand Blade] and [Rhythm Strike] to the extreme through the special training methods of our natural disaster base. The attack movements and power are very impressive. Maybe you can also pay attention to these two skills."
After the demon fox got the information he wanted, he understood clearly and said to his teammates:
"Do you think the lord just came to break the wall for us when he had nothing to do?"
"wrong!"
"The lord itself is a program. Our difficulty in breaking the wall is actually a condition that triggers the arrival of the lord. The lord participates in this event and demonstrates to us the correct use of some skills. It uses the super high burst of [Rhythm Strike] to defeat us. It’s a good choice for mobility barriers.”
Xigou touched his chin: "But... I have learned [Impact] and reached level 5. This is also an enhanced basic attack skill. It gets stronger the more you hit it. It conflicts with [Rhythm Strike], and I think the lord can explode just now." The reason for such high damage is that his basic attributes are much stronger than mine. If he uses the full level [Impact], after stacking it to 6 layers, he should be able to easily open the keyhole."
Lao Bai: "Indeed. Sometimes an attack only needs to break through that limit to cause several times the previous results. Unfortunately, my main output skill is [Whirlwind], and I can't learn the [Rhythm Strike] system."
After a conversation, the Peak Team discovered that no one could learn the [Rhythm Strike] skill, which did not match their current BD.
Unless it's a hard transfer, but that will waste a lot of their skill points, and the gain is not worth the loss.
Xigou immediately made the decision: "What a shame! It's not easy to get people who want a new system. Just find new players to join the team! There are many individual players who want to join our peak team."
Demon Fox: "It makes sense to cultivate a single-target explosive talent based on the [Soldier]'s [Rhythm Strike]."
The Peak Team is discussing BD, and the special agent team has sorted out all the information.
Wei Long concluded: "So, the only useful things we can get at the moment are the two large boxes of gold bars and the box of non-attributed crystals."
As he spoke, Shadow Guard had already held a box of non-attributed crystals in his arms.
Cheng Shaofeng's face glowed red!
"Soldiers! You did a great job! You found crystal energy when our base was most short of energy. I will reward you well when we go back!"
Windfall!
Cheng Shaofeng didn't expect that what was originally a small leveling operation would actually end up with a large amount of crystal stones!
It is also the most precious crystal without attributes!
what does that mean?
This means that the value of these crystals will double!
No! Multiple times!
Because the Colossus City Chamber of Commerce will purchase non-attributed crystals at a very high price!
He can use it to exchange for more unpopular crystal stones, thereby gaining a lot of energy!
Make a lot of money!
Everyone had no objection to the lord taking away the spar. In their understanding, the spar = mission item = experience + merit + iron coins. They couldn’t use it themselves anyway, so the lord could just give him a reward.
There are two boxes of gold bars that everyone plans to take back and share, so they will save them first.
Demon Fox: "Although the value of gold bars has not yet been explained in the game, gold in troubled times is needed for high-precision instruments and chips, so it should still be useful."
In addition, most of the items in the room had weathered and lost their value.
Lin Tanggang, who likes to explore plots, was excited to find a notebook and became a fan the moment he got it.
"Damn! There's no information about such a big shelter?"
At this time, the tactical flashlight scanned him, and some traces were vaguely visible on the wall.
Lintang: "Wait! There seems to be something here! Brother Wei Long, take another photo."
The light of the flashlight shone on the wall, and Lin Tang wiped away the dust, revealing a whole wall of text.
The biggest paragraph above is:
"Come late, I have good news and bad news for you."
"The good news is: Over the past 10 years, we have recorded everything that happened in this city. You can use this data to end that absurd existence."
"The bad news is: We forget that paper and pens weather over time."
