Chapter 4: Plot, Quests, and the Newcomers This Time
The plot of the Iron City is very simple.
Just as the world's industrial revolution was in full swing, an immortal and terrible monster emerged from Europe, the birthplace of industry in the far west.
No one knows exactly how they were born, only that the bodies of these monsters are covered in a steel membrane, and as long as the heart is not destroyed, it will not be truly destroyed, and those who have been bitten by them seem to come back to life after dying once, becoming extremely bloodthirsty and starting to attack humans.
Soon, this kind of thing called Kaspersky .... Well, the monster in Kabanai spread rapidly, and exploded along the trajectory of human activities such as land and sea ships, until it covered the entire world, and even Japan, an island nation in the Far East, located above the sea, could not escape the threat of this undead monster.
Fortunately, the barrier of the ocean still gave them a lot of time to react, and in order to resist the danger of destruction caused by the landing of this monster, people built huge castles called "Yi" in various places, and communicated with each other through armored steam locomotives called Juncheng. But even so, the threat from Kabane is becoming more and more obvious day by day, and the whole of Japan is full of such undead monsters, attacking humans in droves, and the surviving people can only stay in the walled city every day, barely surging, not knowing that the day when the walled city they are in will be breached by monsters, fall, and then all of them will be transformed into Kabane.
The reason why Nanshan chose this mission world is very simple, in addition to having the intention to save the helpless fate that is about to happen to the poor girl Nameless, it is the world of Jia Tiecheng, which is really suitable for people like him to brush up points in it.
In the context of the end times, the concept of the state that originally maintained the entire social order has disappeared, and even if there are still some organizations left, the remaining power is extremely limited, so there is no need to worry about causing irremediable trouble after making a big fuss in it.
Moreover, in the late stage of the First Industrial Revolution, the most powerful guns could not pose a threat to him now.
After the enhancement of the infinite space, Nanshan's attributes have now reached the highest 25 points of the rookie stage, and if you want to continue to improve, you must get rid of the limitations and innate shackles of human beings themselves, and obtain some powerful bloodlines from various worlds.
But even so, his current physical fitness is completely beyond the imagination of most people, not to mention the undead monster whose internal organs are covered in steel membrane like Kabane, even the terrifying biochemical weapons such as lickers and tyrants that have been strengthened and mutated by the T virus are not his current opponents.
After five points, each additional stat is equivalent to 1.2 times the sum of the previous points.
The 25-point attribute is 38 times the normal five-point attribute of ordinary people.
In terms of strength alone, he can now throw nearly two tons of punch power (fifty kilograms for ordinary people), a small car can be thrown around in his hand, and as long as he is not hit head-on by the driving Juncheng, he does not have to fear most of the threats of this world at all.
What's more, the strength of the reincarnation is that in addition to the physical attributes that can be continuously improved, there are also powerful skills and item equipment obtained from various mission worlds.
After selling all the things and superb equipment obtained out of the box, he spent nearly 700,000 World Origin to strengthen his own Nanshan, and his strength can be said to have far exceeded the stage of the newcomer, reaching a level that many veterans can't reach.
However, compared to the confidence of Nanshan before he entered, the other newcomers who appeared in the walled city became less calm after discovering that this was the world of Jiatiecheng.
"Made, it's only the second mission, and I actually received this kind of apocalyptic plot!"
"What, this is Iron City, that's over, Kabane is much more powerful than the ordinary zombies in most movies, not only can he run and jump, but his physical strength can't even penetrate the steam gun of this era."
"No, it's dead, this time it's definitely going to be wiped out here!"
……
Pessimistic, depressed, or desperate voices, Nanshan looked at this Japanese-style walled city mixed with steampunk style, and then returned his attention to the newcomer who entered with him.
These people seem to have split into several waves.
As soon as they entered, they were noisy and shouting, and it was obvious that they were eleven or two newcomers who were reincarnated.
After realizing that this world might be a Tiecheng City, a team of five people gathered together to communicate in a whisper.
There are also two young girls who avoid other people and snuggle up to each other.
Coupled with his own strong insecurity, there are a total of twenty newcomers, and there are actually four waves of different people.
"It's really complicated....."
Nanshan habitually touched his chin and secretly said that things were going to be interesting.
Just like the experience he encountered in the first mission, after the knife wolf who was responsible for guiding the newcomers simply left everyone behind, there were guys like the glasses man and Liu Neng, who were either fierce or had a strong desire for power, trying to control the voice of the entire team. Then in the second mission, there is no senior person who appears at the beginning as a link to integrate everyone, but all are on the same identity level, and the situation that naturally arises in the future will become more complicated and chaotic.
It is not necessarily that no one will obey anyone, but it is certainly that few people will willingly obey the orders of others.
Even if the intentions are good.
As Nanshan thought, before the protective isolation effect provided by the infinite space was over, the team of five discussed for a while, and then proposed to the others to gather everyone's strength.
"After adapting to this period of time, I think everyone should have finished reading the task introduction released by the intelligent assistant, and then this walled city, that is, the Xianjin Station, will be breached by a Juncheng that has been occupied by Kabane and run wild, we need to protect the main plot characters before the end of the attack, will not encounter death in advance, until we successfully board another Juncheng that can be driven away - Jiatiecheng."
"Among them, the male protagonist Ikoma is 2,000 points, the female protagonist Nameless is 1,000 points, the other less important plot characters are 100 to a few hundred points, saving ordinary people is 10 points each, and killing a Kabane can also get 10 points. But I don't recommend everyone to do this, because this anime should be seen by many people, and the performance of those Kabane in it is really a bit terrifying, and many newcomers who have passed the first mission and strengthened can't reach that kind of physical fitness, and they can tear the outer armor iron sheet of Juncheng, and I believe everyone can guess how strong this power is. ”
"So, before the appearance of the rampaging Juncheng, our best thing to do is to do nothing, try to keep a distance from the important plot characters, so as not to be too affected by us, I don't want to suddenly encounter dangers outside the normal plot in the process of protection."
It has to be said that this advice is quite correct.
For those newcomers who are not strong enough, there is nothing more important than knowing the plot, as long as they can avoid accidents, they can use the characteristics of foresight to avoid danger one step ahead. Anyway, according to the normal development of the plot, even without the participation and protection of these reincarnators, the important plot characters will survive the crisis of the fall of the city without danger and successfully ascend to Juncheng.
Just, is that really the way it is?
Before the five could finish their suggestions and propose to reorganize the team with them as the leadership core, a rookie reincarnation who was supposed to be a casual player and had not spoken before suddenly shook his head and laughed, commenting in a disdainful tone.
"This is your proposal, you even thought that the infinite space would be distributed to all of us, I can only say that you are really naïve, even the reincarnation of the inheritance after death has to be deducted, there will be such a kind ....."
