Chapter 204: Revisiting Whistling Castle

Link remembers his previous life, and there was this plot in the background of the open beta.

Extremist forces attacked the three major experimental bases and seized part of the energy pillars.

It is for this reason that the player's spawn point during the Open Beta is not limited to the Free Federation, but almost all of Wastestar.

Although Link had never met Commander Moon, the two sides had a relationship with Benjamin and were already natural allies.

After this incident, Commander Moon's rights were curtailed due to poor defense.

Link knows that he can't stop the mastermind's invisible hands from pushing for the open beta, but with less than five months left before the open beta, he can use this opportunity to push Benjamin up to offset the weakening of the Moon family's power at that time and withdraw from the stage of power competition between the four commanders of the Shadu military.

"So Link you mean ......"

Li Ziqian looked nervous, on the other hand, Benjamin, the main owner next to him, looked confused at this time, and only felt that Captain Li and Brother Lin seemed to be saying something encrypted, and he couldn't understand a word.

"I mean, if the military is going to set up a military dog special operations battalion and put Benjamin there, I can guarantee that this battalion will be the brightest star in Shadu, and even Benjamin will be able to get enough attention. And these experiences are enough to become a wonderful stroke on his resume. ”

Li Ziqian's eyes burned, and Link was right.

With Link's ability to control the beast, the Special Operations Battalion will definitely be able to complete tasks that many other departments can't accomplish after its establishment, and it will definitely shine when the time comes, and even the resume of joining the military with Benjamin will be much improved.

At that time, Commander Moon will be outside, Benjamin will be inside, and the two will blossom.

Benjamin's face gradually changed, and there was a look of excitement on his face.

"Brother Lin, so it's very likely that we will work together in the future?"

Link was stunned for a moment, then hid his face and sighed.

Well, it's worthy of being stupid and sweet, at this time, what I care about is not my father's status, but whether I can work with him, if I can't save it, I can't save it.

"I'll tell the commander about this matter, thank you in advance." Li Ziqian restarted the jeep and continued driving.

The private cars on the road retreated one after another after seeing the camouflage on the body of the car and the symbol mark printed with the Fox Hunt Special Forces.

Military vehicles have unbridled rights in Shadu, not to mention gang-infested slums, and they flee like cats see mice.

Link and Li Ziqian had a tacit understanding and did not talk about Benjamin's entry into the military.

Link also has selfish intentions in helping Benjamin in this way, and wants to tie himself to Commander Moon, one of the four commanders, through the Special Operations Battalion.

Having the identity of the gang leader in the slum of Shadu, as well as the identity of the military, is definitely a double guarantee for Link.

Link can see it.

In the slums, the status of a 'painter and a heavy man' is not easy to use, and on the contrary, it is easy to attract him to death.

Especially what this guy is hiding in the warehouse is a complete time bomb.

If the misfortune leaks out, it is no exaggeration to say that the entire Free Federation will have no place for Link.

So until he decides that he wants to confront the enemy head-on, he will definitely protect this secret.

There is no more powerful force in Shadu than the military, so he must show his strength and gain a firm foothold in the military.

This is no less than a gold medal for avoiding death.

Li Ziqian also understands Link's idea of 'exploiting' Benjamin, but he prefers to call it a win-win.

"Brother Lin, have you all heard about it lately? There's something weird in Whistling Castle. Benjamin said excitedly.

Li Ziqian doesn't care about this, there are too many things that need to be paid attention to every day, and he doesn't pay much attention to things in non-Shadu.

Link has also heard various rumors on the underground black market.

No one will know that he is the one who started it.

"Yes, I've heard a little."

"It turned out that this was the outpost and foothold for bounty hunters and killers to enter the desert to do tasks, but some time ago, the bounty hunters who were resting in it said that there was something dirty in the castle that could not be seen. At first, everyone thought they were timid, but as many people disappeared inside, there were rumors that the castle was haunted, what do you think, Brother Lin? ”

Link chuckled and said, "I don't know if there are ghosts, but this group of people is really timid. ”

Li Ziqian has the same attitude towards this as Link.

There must be some explanation for this, it's that these bounty hunters are too low-level to know.

Soon the car drove out of Shadu.

Because it was a military vehicle, no one stopped to inspect it when it left Shadu.

The scenery outside the car quickly changed from a city to a wasteland.

The Weeping Valley in the distance can be seen with the naked eye, and some small villages can be seen in the wasteland outside Shadu, attached to the edge of Shadu, coming and going from the villages to Shadu every day, bringing desert and tribal things to Shadu for sale.

Through the early morning sun, you can see people leading camel caravans, carrying baggage and goods to Shadu.

Ah Fu leaned on the window, looking at the scattered small villages, his eyes lit up.

His father's greatest wish before his death was to take his family and subordinates to Sadu to do the coffin carrying business.

In the eyes of these people, the journey from the tribe to Shadu is a path to wealth and a pilgrimage.

Soon, scattered tribes disappeared into the Gobi.

The only thing that catches the eye is the old bones of wild beasts that pass by the roadside from time to time.

But as there are more flashes, it can also make people feel bored.

Benjamin, who was extremely excited before, couldn't stand the boring scenery on the way, so he was already leaning back in his seat, drooping his head and falling asleep.

Ah Fu was full of energy, and kept looking at the scenery outside, feeling like he was revisiting.

Link is holding his mobile phone and looking for today's fun in the Platinum Hotel app.

I don't have time to read the newspaper in the morning, so I just have some fun on my phone.

Be proficient in finding bounties about yourself.

There were more and more messages under the bounty, and Link quickly flipped through them, and there were many people leaving messages almost every day.

#我感觉我要完, Link is now the master of the Qilin Hall, how can he kill him......#

#我辛辛苦苦攒的全知币啊, this wave will be bloody! #

#话说那个点反对的龟孙到底是谁, I'm going to go to the door and cut him. #

#第12天签到, please kill Link! #

#听说今早林克被军方的车接出沙都了, maybe this is an opportunity? #

#上面的快醒醒, you dare to offend the military directly in order to kill Link? The guy juice life 8 should be able to give it to others! #

……

The various replies below are quite interesting.

Looking at the wails of these low-level bounty hunters and killers, Link was in a better mood all day.

A third of the month has passed, and they are in a hurry, they are in a hurry, they are in a hurry, they are in a hurry!

For these keyboard warriors who are pointing the fingers on the Internet, all Link can do is to strike hard and let them know that there is still love in this world.

"Is there anything funny about saying it that makes me happy?" Li Ziqian, who was driving silently, saw Link with a smile on his face through the rearview mirror, and couldn't help but talk.

Link smiled and told him about it in 1510: "The Platinum Hotel has launched an APP, in which you can take orders, shop and gamble, and when Baihetang was still there, someone opened a reward, betting that I would die within a month." Because everybody voted for me to die, I took it upon myself to make the bounty effective. As a result, a group of low-level killers and bounty hunters are now worried about whether they can kill me. ”

Link shook his phone and said with a smile: "Now this bounty has almost become a source of happiness for me every morning." ”

Li Ziqian also laughed after hearing this, a group of low-level killers and bounty hunters, actually thought that Link would not live for more than a month, and was finally cut off by the main owner, he could already imagine the grievances of those people who hoped that Link would hang up, but he was not able to do it himself.

"Original...... The happiness of the hall master is so unpretentious...... And boring. ”

The desert is gone, replaced by a rubble-like ruin, and in the background of the ruins is an ancient castle that has been weathered for decades and is now completely deserted.

"Whistling Castle, here."

The military jeep stopped steadily, and Benjamin, who was asleep in a daze, opened his eyes, swept away his exhaustion, opened the door and jumped out of the car in one go.

Link and Ah Fu also got out of the car and looked at the castle in the distance with emotion.

After Li Ziqian got out of the car, he bought a circle of equipment around the jeep.

Detectors, mines and other things were buried in the ground, and then they walked in front with military packages on their backs.

As Link approached, the silver queen ant under the Whistling Castle sensed the arrival of its master, and the silver marching ants in the castle suddenly became active.

The four of them walked around the rubble and came to the main entrance of Wuthering Castle.

It doesn't look like it's in disrepair at all, and many of the broken earthen walls are now filled in.

"Isn't this a ruin? Why does the inner wall of the castle show signs of repair? Could it be that there are people in the castle? Benjamin couldn't help but be delighted.

Li Ziqian stepped forward, carefully observed these traces that had been filled in later, and said after a while: "This doesn't look like a trace of man-made repair, but more like the result of some kind of creature's continuous transportation and construction." ”

Li Ziqian glanced up at the sky, at first he thought it would be some kind of bird, but in the desert except for eagles and falcons, there are few other birds of prey, let alone birds that are good at nesting.

In this way, only insects are possible.

Link was shocked, but he didn't expect Li Ziqian to see at a glance that it was not a human being who restored the castle, but a living being.

But at the same time, Link was also very impressed by the progress of the construction of the silver marching ants.

It's only been a month since he left Wuthering Castle, and the construction progress here has greatly exceeded his expectations.

Except for the main entrance, the gaps as far as the eye could see were filled by silver marching ants.

Li Ziqian led the way, Benjamin followed, and Link and Ah Fu walked behind.

Towards noon, the sun hanging high in the sky gradually became scorching.

But the closer you get to the castle, the more eerie it smells.

Even during the day.

Link hadn't taken a few steps before he felt a few silver marching ants crawling on his body.

These little creatures sensed the arrival of their masters, and unknowingly crawled out of the underground secret passage and came to the door themselves.

The deeper he went into the castle, the more shocked Link was at the progress of the Silver Marching Ants.

He thought that the marching ants had only repaired the outer walls and façade, but he had never thought that even the castle itself had been repaired.

Many of the walls of the dilapidated castle had collapsed due to the bombing, but the earthy yellow 'patches' could now be clearly seen.

Li Ziqian's face also showed a solemn look.

He found something different.

If it is said that some kind of creature repaired the castle spontaneously, the amount of work as far as the eye can see is too large, even if it is carried out day and night, it will have to be repaired to a full term. But what creature would be so bored and do such a thankless task?

Combined with the 'haunted' dead people in Wuthering Castle that Benjamin said before, Li Ziqian can be sure that this castle is strange.

Li Ziqian glanced back at Link and found that he was also observing these repairs, so he couldn't help but say, "Did you also find out?" ”

Link knew what Li Ziqian meant, and nodded very dryly.

"I don't think these biological repairs are spontaneous, but probably instigated. Some people want to make a fuss about this ancient castle and hide it from people. ”

Link didn't show anything unusual on his face, but he was already a monstrous wave in his heart.

It is worthy of being a lv30+ (boss) level NPC, and this vicious eyesight alone is enough to make people chill.

It only took ten minutes to come to the castle, and most of the truth had already been figured out.

"But I don't think the other party should have any malicious intent." Link chimed in.

Li Ziqian also nodded: "I didn't find any traps along the way, and I didn't even see any traces of someone settling down, it is estimated that after the news came out, no one dared to settle down again." ”

"When I drove up the mountain, I found that there were a few simple tents and newly built earthen walls at the foot of the mountain, and it is estimated that people passing by will rest there."

Benjamin looked excited, he had come to explore.

Now that he heard that it might be true, he was so excited that he took off, and hurriedly urged: "Then what are you waiting for, let's hurry up and start the adventure!" ”

On the other hand, Ah Fu on the side took out his things from his strengthened backpack and began to set up a tent in the shade.

"Don't rush yet, it's not too late to explore after lunch."

Ah Fu took out the barbecue grill, chopping board, and all kinds of meat marinated in advance from his backpack.

Benjamin's eyes widened as he watched Ah Fu pull out so many things from his small backpack, and his whole body froze.

Although Li Ziqian's expression was as usual, his eyes were always focused on Ah Fu and never left.

Although he already knew that this little fat man was not ordinary, he was still extremely shocked when he saw such an unconventional scene.

Is this a backpack, or a bottomless pit?

How can you take out anything, and this backpack has no bottom?

"Link, you servant, there are things...... Li Ziqian said meaningfully.

Link snorted, seeing that both of them were startled by Ah Fu's enhanced backpack.

"Well, how can someone who can escape from the Wasteland Gang with me Link be a general?"

Speaking of the Wasteland Gang, Li Ziqian's ass leaned closer to Link and asked in a low voice, "It is rumored that you and Ah Fu both ran out of the Wasteland Gang's secret laboratory, is this true?" ”
