Huge stars hung high in the sky, roasting the entire planet like a furnace, and the temperature on the ground rose sharply, soon exceeding the 200 degrees Celsius mark, and the air could be seen distorted by the heat. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Rolling yellow sand fills the sky, and the boundless sea of sand makes this a forbidden area for life, which is not at all like what humans can adapt to, but with the continuous development of human technology, this planet with only a meager atmosphere is about to be conquered.

Bang!

In the distance, the roar of machinery was heard in the sea of sand, and a huge humanoid machine painted in desert camouflage was galloping, and behind it the yellow sand was like an earthy dragon, constantly churning, and from time to time there were bursts of beast roars.

"Red Alert! Red Alert!! The unit is about to run out of energy!! "A screeching electronic sound, resounding in the cab.

"Isn't it really okay? It seems that he overestimated this federal-standard desert mech. With a sigh, Luo Xiu was ready to give up this mecha, this was not the first time he was preparing to travel on foot on this harsh planet, fortunately this time at least there was a protective suit, much better than the first time he came here to carry out a mission.

Luo Xiu had been on this 437907 Human Federation border planet for more than half a year, and at first he thought it was just an ordinary planet exploration mission, until he saw thousands of sand tooth dragons, and suddenly understood that this was clearly a mission to death.

"If it weren't for us mercenaries at the front, how could the Federation complete the planet expansion so quickly." Luo Xiu smiled bitterly and said to himself: "I would have known that I wouldn't have accepted this task, and I wouldn't have spent my life if I coveted a huge amount of commissions!" There is really no free lunch in the world, and if it weren't for greed, I wouldn't have been cornered. ”

Luo Xiu, who wanted to open it, decisively pulled up the handle of the escape mode, and the entire cab was immediately ejected into the sky, and smashed on the sand dunes not far ahead with a muffled sound.

The mecha without energy was quickly overwhelmed by the earth dragon behind him, and was torn to pieces by the sand tooth dragon group, with the mecha as a lure, Luo Xiu took the opportunity to escape from the perception range of the sand tooth dragon group.

The boiling sea of sand gradually subsided, and there was no mecha on the ground, and the group of sand toothed dragons without a target swam away, as if nothing had happened, only the sand and dust in the sky and a lonely back.

Half a year later......

"Passengers, please note that the G37285 faster-than-light spacecraft from the Human Federation Planet 437907 to the home planet Earth is about to depart, please hurry up for passengers who have not yet boarded the ship." The sweet girl came out of the radio, and this ordinary flight prompt sound made Luo Xiu, who was used to hearing the harsh electronic sound of military mechas, feel very pleasant.

"It's not easy to finally complete the pioneering task!" Luo Xiu walked out of the waiting room that had just been built, packed his belongings and prepared to go to the boarding gate of the spaceship, after more than a year of death-defying tasks, he could finally leave this damn planet, which made him feel very happy.

Luo Xiu, a legendary figure in the mercenary world, nicknamed "Shura", can be said to shine in this planet exploration mission, but for him, the commission given by the Federation to this mission is what he values the most.

Due to the miscalculation of the human federal government, the first batch of mercenaries who landed suffered heavy casualties, the difficulty of the mission also increased by several levels, and the corresponding commission also increased, a full tenfold. The already huge commission, this time can even make Luo Xiu have no worries for the rest of his life, which made him decide to give up his mercenary career and return to the home planet Earth to settle down, ending this decade-long wandering career.

"Shura, you really don't think about going to the federal army to develop?" Behind him, a middle-aged man wearing the uniform of a major general of the Federation asked aloud.

"No, General Chen, you also know that an unrestrained person like me is not suitable to be a soldier." Luo Xiu waved his hand and left without looking back.

"What a pity! If he can come to the army, the position of the first ace mecha pilot of the Federation will have to be changed. General Chen smiled, he also knew Luo Xiu's character, and he just wanted to give it a last try.

Of course, Luo Xiu understood that with his own ability and General Chen's introduction, he could rise to prominence in the army, but now he just wanted to live a few days of ordinary life in peace.

"Uncle Chen, is he just leaving?" When Luo Xiu's figure disappeared from the boarding area, a cold voice suddenly sounded from the waiting room.

"Yes, let's go, I didn't even say goodbye to our ace mecha pilot." General Chen looked at Yang Qing'er, who suddenly appeared in front of him, and quipped.

"Who wants that bastard's goodbye, it's just that he's saved me several times in the past year, and he hasn't come to thank me yet!" Yang Qing'er blushed, glared at General Chen fiercely, turned around and disappeared.

"This girl's abilities are getting better and better, and even I can't fully perceive them. However, Shura, my niece is not a master who will give up easily, and she will hold a grudge against you if you don't say goodbye! General Chen smiled faintly and then left the waiting room.

At this time, the other people in the waiting room dared to speak and whispered, and the topic was all about the three people who had just left.

Luo Xiu came to the side of the spaceship's sleeping cabin and put on an oxygen mask, this spaceship is considered to be the fastest of the federal civilian spaceships, but the fastest spaceship of mankind on the bright side, it takes half a month to return to the home planet Earth from the federal border planet, and the civilian type of spaceship will not be able to reach the earth in a month.

And with the hibernation pod, people will only feel asleep, wake up and find that they have reached their destination, completely skipping the boring interstellar journey, of course, you can also choose to watch the sea of stars along the way, but in faster-than-light mode through the wormhole, the sea of stars inside is completely the same, even if the same scenery is beautiful, it will make people feel aesthetic fatigue after a long time, except for the first time on the spaceship, everyone else has entered the spaceship's hibernation capsule early.

As the dormant hatch slowly closed, the space inside the cabin was gradually filled with nutrient solution, Luo Xiu slowly closed his eyes, his body felt lighter and lighter, his consciousness became blurred, and he began to enter a dormant state, and his heartbeat slowed down and gradually maintained at a frequency......

"5.4.3.2.1, the ship is about to enter faster-than-light orbit, please get ready." With a shudder, the spacecraft disappeared into the vast sea of stars.

"Ding! If the thinking link is normal, is it connected to the artificial virtual world? A completely emotionless female voice sounded in Luo Xiu's ears, which involuntarily reminded him of the prompt sound of the mecha system, although it was much more pleasant to the ear.

When Luo Xiu heard this voice, he was stunned for a moment, and then his consciousness moved, and a beautiful woman appeared in front of him, wearing a white robe, pointed ears, a staff in her hand, and an emerald green hair draped over her shoulders, which reminded people of a fantasy race "elf" at a glance.

"Artificial virtual worlds? Unexpectedly, after more than a year, artificial virtual technology has been running on civilian flights. Luo Xiu was surprised, and then remembered that the virtual technology for military use had already been developed and used, and it was only a matter of time before it was transformed into civilian use, so he was not so surprised.

Luo Xiu looked at the elven beauty in front of him, he had seen this race in several fantasy-style online games, but it was the first time he had seen it in his life.

"Can you tell me about the virtual world?" Luo Xiu opened his mouth and asked, but he didn't click on it for the first time, if the link was to some strange place, then he wouldn't go.

"Yes, this is a test version of the virtual online game "Second Dream", mainly to test the operating limits of the galaxy mastermind, and at the same time to meet the needs of how many players are online at the same time." The elf beauty said expressionlessly, wasting such a beautiful face in vain, which makes people feel sorry.

If she laughed, it would be even more moving, and it would not be an exaggeration to laugh at it, Luo Xiu thought in his heart and immediately clicked OK, the publicity of "The Second Dream" was so strong that he had heard of it even though he was far away on the frontier of the Human Federation, but he didn't expect it to be in operation so soon.

Luo Xiu suddenly fell into darkness in front of his eyes, and just when he thought he had been deceived, a ray of light appeared in the darkness, followed by the epic promotional expansion of "The Second Dream", "The Second Dream World of Mankind".

Thunderous war drums rang in his ears, the sky in the distance was covered by a huge black curtain, and from time to time several huge bone dragons sprung out, and the sea of skeletons on the ground was surging like a tide, and the boundless demon army was following closely behind, heading towards the fortress guarded by a coalition of humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, and other races on the opposite side.

The holy light shone brightly, all the beasts were galloping, the magic brilliance in the sky was dazzling, the energy beam of the magic cannon illuminated the entire sky, the sea of bones was churning, and the flying demons and gargoyles in the sky flew out of the black curtain like locusts, and collided with the oncoming griffin knight and dragon eagle knight, and the blood floated like raindrops all over the sky.

The twisted steel weapons, the raging flames, and the aura of slaughter permeating the scene became more and more intense, making people nervous, and the atmosphere was depressing.

As one of them, Luo Xiu felt his blood boiling, he hadn't felt this way for a long time, and when the undead and demons were about to start attacking the city, the picture came to an abrupt end, and there were only three golden characters "Second Dream".

"What, that's gone?" Luo Xiu was dissatisfied, looking at the poker-faced elf beauty that appeared again in front of him, he could only shake his head and sighed: "This should also be the official propaganda method of the game, it seems that if you want to experience it again, you can only go to the game to experience it, aren't you worried about what to do next?" It's a good choice to be a professional gamer, and I'm really looking forward to the first all-virtual online game. ”

"However, this federal government's advertising is really pervasive, and this expansion pack is really good for the sake of financial revenue, and who would refuse such a real game after being there? The people who can get up from the spaceship are generally not poor, and it makes sense to spend some money on a gaming helmet. Luo Xiu muttered to himself, his heart full of anticipation.
