Above the endless light gray sea, a medium-sized cruise ship is slowly breaking the waves.

This is a double-decker cruise ship with a length of nearly 20 meters, with three eye-catching black characters of "Gray Wing" and a series of red English on the silver-gray hull.

HOWEVER, THE MOST STRIKING THING IS THE 40 MM CALIBER THREE-BARRELED ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUN UNDER THE SHIP'S CONTROL ROOM, AND THE TWO SIX-BARRELED ELECTROMAGNETIC MACHINE GUNS DISTRIBUTED IN THE BOW AND STERN OF THE SHIP.

The Grey Wing is an armed cruise ship!

On a synthetic deck covered with insulation, Feng Luo sits on a sun lounger, expertly disassembling the sand eagle with both hands, and doing the necessary daily maintenance with a tarpaulin.

Going out on a cruise should have been a great pleasure.

Blue sky, white clouds, sea...... Fishing, sunbathing, eating coconut......

When the surrounding scenery is an endless sea and sky, and at the same time there is nothing to do on the sea except for playing, it is easy to forget the troubles in your heart and feel comfortable.

However, the exception is the grey sea.

Because the water here is polluted, the whole sea has a slightly chaotic light gray color from a distance.

Gray is probably the color that makes people feel negative.

Moreover, the sea is not a suitable place for sniper combat, although the sea surface has an infinite view, but the waves and wind can have a huge impact on the ship.

When shooting seabirds in the sky with a sniper rifle, the muzzle of the gun that was originally aimed would often shift due to the sudden shaking of the ship, and the bullet would deviate greatly from a distance of several hundred meters.

He wanted to solve the problem of inaccurate bullets, but there was no good way for the time being.

Fortunately, according to the Red Queen, the group sailed on the ship for only about a day and a half, and the real mission location was a military base on an island.

That's right, it was the mission map that Master Roland gave him to show the military base in the area, and this kind of coincidence even made Fengluo wonder if the Red Queen would have come by premeditation? Have an axe to grind.

But thinking that he took the initiative to find them, it seems that this matter can really only be described by two words: coincidence!

"Our destination is Silver Leaf Island in the south-central part of the gray sea, and we have entered the military base numbered S-53!"

The Red Queen was standing in front of a table to the left of Windfall, using her device to project a three-dimensional virtual image of the island on top of the table, facing a total of six players around the table, including Windfall.

"This is a secret military base set in the game's history before the Great Apocalypse. At present, no one should have been cleared yet, so there will definitely be a lot of danger inside, and you need to be careful when entering. ”

The projection then changes to a middle-aged white NPC in a white research coat and a short-haired girl who is also wearing a white research uniform and black-rimmed glasses.

"However, our mission does not need to clear the entire military base, but only needs to protect these two NPCs and obtain one thing in a core research laboratory." The Red Queen said.

"This middle-aged white man is an expert in genetics and virology named Ike, and this seventeen-year-old woman with short hair is his assistant, Lynn."

"Lynn, a seventeen-year-old science assistant, a genius girl among NPCs...... Childlike ****...... Well, this figure really can't be seen at only seventeen years old! ”

A short, dark-faced, and somewhat similar to Ah San's player, his eyes swirling around the 34D chest and buttocks of the short-haired girl NPC who was subdued, and his mouth was slurking.

This guy's ID is "Big Pineapple" and is a level 47 heavy armor warrior player.

The mission team organized by the Red Queen has a total of seven people, and in addition to Black Panther and Ice Glass, there is also a level 46 light armor warrior with the ID "Neutron Star" and a level 44 female doctor named "White Crescent".

A fire master, a water master, a heavy armor warrior, a light armor warrior, two snipers and a doctor.

This seven-person squad happens to take two branches from each of the three major classes, defense and penetration, range and ranged damage, and a healing class, which is very suitable for small-scale team battles.

The only regret is that there are no machine gunners and it is not possible to suppress fire when needed.

This is mainly due to the fact that the Heavy class consumes too much ammo, which can take up a lot of backpack weight.

The anti-gravity space backpack used by the player has weight and total space limitations, and the weight exceeding the upper limit will be faithfully pressed on the character's body, which will seriously affect the movement speed and increase the physical exertion.

Therefore, squads of less than 10 people are generally not equipped with machine gunners, so as not to become a drag.

Among the seven players, except for Fengluo and the Medic, everyone else is above level 45, and the Red Queen has actually reached level 48, which is the highest-level player Fengluo has encountered so far.

However, there are more than seven players on this ship.

There are also fifteen NPCs on the entire ship, all of whom are level 40 or higher.

They belong to the crew of this armed cruise ship, and they also have a certain amount of combat power, and even the captain in his forties is still an elite model of level 43, with a high level of AI, and it is said that he was a corporal of the Federal Guard when he was young.

That's right, these crew members are the NPC mercenaries that Fengluo had considered before, and the wealthy Red Queen directly hired fifteen of them.

"Mr. Big Pineapple, your most important task is to protect the personal safety of the two NPCs after you go to the island, and after completing the task, the 200,000 credits promised to you will be credited to your account."

The Red Queen turned her head and said to the player who was judging the NPC girl, her face a little cold.

"OK, mission guaranteed!"

The big pineapple agreed very happily, and the thief's bright eyes rolled and swept the chest of the female doctor named White Crescent, only to be glared at by her.

Only then did Fengluo know that this heavily armored warrior named Big Pineapple, like him, was not a member of this team before, but belonged to a player who took money to do things.

200,000 credits, the price is higher than his "extreme shooting" chip.

Of course, the other person's level is a full level 47, which is definitely more valuable than his own level 40.

However, counting his own rare chip plus the commission fee of this heavily armored warrior, it is already higher than the price of a piece of rare equipment. Coupled with the money for hiring NPCs and cruise ships, I don't know what the reward for this mission is that it is worth such a big investment?

"That's all there is to say about the two target NPCs, anyway, they spend most of their time experimenting in the cabin they are locked in, so it's not difficult to protect them when at sea, except in case of emergencies."

When the Red Queen speaks of emergencies, she is referring to monsters in the sea.

Although they took a cruise ship, it didn't mean that they could completely avoid the monsters, they had already encountered several waves of monsters along the way after going to sea, but there was not much trouble.

So after the Red Queen said this, she turned off the projection equipment.

"That's it, let's go our separate ways now. By about noon tomorrow, we'll be on target. ”

“OK！”

The big pineapple stretched out her hand and made a clear gesture.

"I'll go in and take a look at the employer."

The Red Queen stood up and stepped into the cabin.

"How about we have a gamble?"

Everyone dispersed, and Fengluo was about to hang up and switch to the forum to watch a movie, when a voice sounded above his head.

The black panther, dressed in a brown camouflage uniform, stood beside him, his one-meter-eight body blocking most of the sunlight, and was looking at him with a pair of aggressive eyes.
