Chapter 19: Class A Delegation
A voice recorder?
Link was disappointed and had many questions.
When I was doing the plot in my last life, didn't I say that the desert prince went to Shadu to be a rich man's family, and finally died?
Why did the corpse appear in the secret passage on the third basement level of Wuthering Castle?
Link has so many questions that need to be answered.
The remains in front of him were completely flesh and blood, only a gorgeous dress and white bones, and it seemed that they had been dead for a long time.
Link takes the recorder from the treasure mouse.
The voice recorder is cold to the touch, and the special matte texture makes Link feel strange.
"This prince doesn't know how long he has been dead, and the voice recorder should have run out of power a long time ago, right?"
Although Link said this, he still subconsciously pressed the on/off button.
The screen of the voice recorder suddenly lit up with a light blue cold light, showing that there was still 3% battery left.
"Wow, there's still electricity!"
Link was startled, although he didn't know how long the prince had been dead, but judging from the fact that the flesh and blood were completely corrupted, and only a white bone remained, it would be at least twenty or thirty years.
While there was still power, Link hurriedly pressed the play button.
There are so many questions in his mind at the moment that he urgently needs to find answers.
I thought I knew everything about Wuthering Castle, but I didn't expect to make a series of new discoveries here today.
The voice recorder starts playing, but no sound is heard.
After a few moments, the recorder made a ticking sound.
[March 15, 212 A.D., sunny. The countdown to the Cold War was visibly zeroed out, and the two superpowers pressed the red button for nuclear war. All the information networks collapsed, and I could only record everything I saw with a voice recorder. In the afternoon, I stood high above the castle and saw the clouds from the nuclear explosion in the distance. γ
[January 1 of the first year of the wasteland calendar, cloudy. I've decided to name this day the Year of the Wasteland Age. After the day of the nuclear explosion, the communication was partially restored, and I got the news from the outside world that there was chaos everywhere. The rules of the old era have been completely nullified, and the new law of brute power has begun to prevail in the last days, and the one who holds the power has become the new king. γ
[January 3 of the first year of the wasteland calendar, cloudy. The news newsletter said that the global direct death toll exceeded 40 percent, and that this number would expand to 80 percent with the spread of nuclear radiation, and that many treasures of civilization were lost in war, and people paid the price for their own narrow-mindedness and madness. Alas, there is no future for this planet......]
[January 5 of the first year of the wasteland calendar, cloudy. I heard that Shadu built a doomsday underground shelter after the war, but fortunately, at the beginning of the construction of Wuthering Castle, I left a lot of back, in addition to the secret passage and secret room, I also have a passage to Shadu in the deepest part of the castle. If Doomsday Shelter is feasible, there is one more way to survive. γ
[January 9 of the first year of the wasteland calendar, cloudy. The clouds of nuclear radiation have gradually spread from the desert, Alonso said that in three days at most, the clouds will reach the Valley of the Weeping, the Whistling Castle has no ability to resist nuclear radiation, there is chaos outside, everyone in the castle is filled with despair, all can do is wait for death. Maybe...... It's time to tell them about the underground passages. γ
[January 10 of the first year of the wasteland calendar, cloudy. The radiation cloud is indeed getting closer, and I heard that it is already snowing in the desert, black snow with radiation. But there are two good news today, one is that the radio signal of the Shadu underground shelter has been connected and communicated with them. The second is that I told everyone the news of the underground passage, and their dead faces finally regained smiles and vitality. γ
[January 11, the first year of the wasteland calendar, cloudy. It's getting colder and the clouds are getting closer, so it's time to get out of here. There is a lot of food, treasure, and weapons in the castle. Of course, these are not the things I care about the most, but what I care about the most is the various documents, collections, and cultural relics that I usually collect, which are proof of history and priceless treasures. γ
[On January 12, the first year of the wasteland calendar, the clouds were overcast and the snow came. Everything was packed, and everyone was evacuated through the secret passage into the underground passage. There was also a small episode in the middle, where the workers found a palm-sized ant nest in the secret passage. This group of little ones is really unlucky, just settled in the secret tunnel, unexpectedly encountered a 'nuclear winter', the first layer of the secret passage is not isolated from nuclear dust, I asked the workers to dismantle the ant nest, transferred to the third underground floor, and sealed the passage above. Whether they survive next depends on their own vitality. Now, I'm leaving......]
[Ahem! I'm so stupid! It's the law of the wasteland now, and I thought they were loyal to me...... I'm not good now, I don't know if anyone will find this closed secret passage in the future, and find dry bones in the secret passage. If you have, hopefully you'll be able to click on the recorder and hear it. Please do me a favor and remember the names of these betrayers who are going to come next. γ
The content of the voice recorder was so wonderful that Link had to listen more intently, for fear of missing a name.
[Augustin Frank, Moros Matte, James Dean, Jean Alonso, Leng Guan, Linglong, Aziz.] γ
After listening to this, Link's head grew bigger, and he pressed the pause button of the voice recorder.
Not because the names are complicated to remember, but because they are so common in the game!
Which of the above seven people is not a big man?
Link was digesting the Prince's words on the one hand, and his brain was churning with memory on the other.
It turned out that these seven people divided the prince's wealth after killing the lord, and only then did they start in the apocalyptic wasteland, and finally became the representatives of various forces.
Link digested the shock in his heart and continued to click on the recorder to listen to what was next.
[I originally planned to scatter all these useless gold and silver treasures to them after arriving in Shadu, and go through the troubled times myself, collecting as many cultural relics as possible from the old era, so as not to let human civilization be destroyed after the reckoning day. I didn't expect them to have bad intentions......]
[Hahaha, it's a pity that they are short-sighted! Little would have they imagined that the Mandala family had a treasure trot, and the treasure map had been divided into seven pieces by me and placed in their gold waist cards. The seven of them are not willing to be ordinary, and they originally planned to wait for the sand capital to surprise them, let them go to the treasure place, and use the wealth inside to realize their ideals, but now it seems that cough, cough, cough, cough......]
[I'm dying, long story short. The ring on my finger is the key to unlocking the treasure ground. If, if possible, inherit the will of the Mandala family, wear the ring, and make these betrayers pay. γ
[This ring, and the treasure of the treasure land, are taken as a thank you.] γ
[Also, don't lose the voice recorder.] γ
γOpen it ......γ
The recording came to an abrupt end, and there was no further sound.
After all the voices were played, the only 3% of the voice recorder's remaining battery was also drained, and the screen gradually dimmed.
At the same time, a prompt was sent from the system interface.
[You triggered the A-rank quest [Mandala's Revenge], accept/decline]
[Quest Hint: If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight, inherit the will of the Mandala family, and take revenge on the seven!] Clues of the seven, you can ask anyone on Wasteland to get answers. ]
[Task reward: The task is divided into 7 stages, and each stage is dynamically rewarded according to the evaluation]
A-rank mission!
The epic sense of this commission can be felt from the voice recorder Link, after all, the enemies are all the famous power leaders of Wasteland.
But I never expected this to be an A-level mission.
A-level missions, as the name suggests, are extremely difficult, and must involve the main story of the planet in order for the mission rating to reach A.
But Link clearly remembers that the main mission of Wasteland in his previous life was to help the Savior awaken......
"This is the hidden main line of Wasteland!"
At that time, the hidden main lines of the other two planets were dug up, but the Waste Saturn only had one main quest on the surface, and countless players racked their brains to no avail. With the opening of version 2.0 and the player's goal shifted to space, the hidden main story of Wasteland was 'cold' by the player.
A-level missions, extremely difficult, but equally rewarding.
With the seven major forces as enemies, this task can be more challenging than the main story on the bright side.
Accept!
Link thought for a moment and accepted decisively.
In this life, I have obtained the golden finger of the Zerg hive, and now I have activated the hidden main line with more generous rewards by chance, why not take it?
The number of A-level missions is already only a handful, and you can't miss it when you encounter it.
He is a person who is determined to wrestle with Paul the Great, and the hidden main line of a novice planet stumps him, how can he compete with the Emperor in the future?
This is both a difficulty and an opportunity.
Link puts on the royal ring and gets a new identity.
[You gain a new identity: Mandala Spokesperson]
There are also voice recorders.
The prince's unfinished words before his death made Link interested in the voice recorder.
According to the meaning of the prince's words, there was something hidden in the recorder.
It's just that this recorder is all in one, and Link has been looking for a long time but can't find a cover that can be opened.
"I can only let the marching ants take it apart." Link got up and walked back.
The Treasure Hunt Rat jumped back onto Link's shoulder, holding his head high, expecting his master's compliment.
"You're the first to do this wave." Link also understood, and opened his mouth to praise.
One person and one rat walked back, and immediately saw Ah Fu, who was 'dying', revealing half of his body, hanging weakly at the entrance of the cave.
What's wrong, suddenly becoming weak.
Link was a little curious, and grabbed Ah Fu with both hands and directly dragged Ah Fu out of the hole.
The marching ants at the edge of the hole retreated to their nests.
Looking at Ah Fu again, his head was sweating profusely, and the whole person looked like he had lost his soul.
"Ah Fu, wake up!"
Link reached out and patted Ah Fu's face, the two shiny flesh on his cheeks trembling.
His eyes gradually returned to his senses, and after seeing Link, Ah Fu's tears suddenly burst out: "Boss, you're finally back!" If you're a little late, you won't see me! β
It turned out that Ah Fu had just felt a pile of marching ants behind his buttocks, and the whole person was already scared stupid and wanted to run away like crazy.
But the one who was stuck in the hole was dead, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't move for half a minute.
His mouth was also shouting and screaming, but Link was immersed in the content of the recorder, already filtering out all the noise from the outside world.
In the end, Ah Fu struggled with all the strength of his body, and shouted until he collapsed and fell unconscious.
Link laughed when he heard this.
The marching ants helped loosen the soil for him, and he thought that the marching ants were going to eat him.
"Then you lie down and slow down for a while."
Link's immediate priority was to see what was hidden in the recorder.
