(The last volume, the end of the year, thank you for your support this year, hypocrisy is a disease, it has to be cured, so I won't say much nonsense, please accompany me quietly through the last journey.) ）

"Ding: Your rank has been officially upgraded (1004/2000), current rank: Major."

As with the damn experience settings in most browser games, the primary upgrade is called a quick one, and you can't necessarily catch it by riding a rocket, and you can often find an NPC to take on a mission to move up a level. And as you level up, the experience points required to level up in the later stages can exhaust you like an old dog with your tongue hanging out

"You have the privileges as follows: Elite. You can pay 5,000 points to open a mystery shop with a B-level side story. ”

"Financial Expert: Buy any props and items in the ordinary store, you will enjoy an 8.5% discount."

"Foresight: You can get the intel of the next adventure world a day in advance."

"Messenger of Justice: In battle with hostile adventurers, increase stats by 3% and unfavorable modifiers by +3."

The special/right rewards after the rank promotion are still quite good, at least Lin Xiao is very satisfied. It is also a large expense to make up for it in various ways.

Back to the compound villa purchased by the Tianshen Team in the urban residential area, Lao Huang, Qin Yujie and others were already sitting on the sofa in the living room and waiting. After all, you still have to rest when it's time to rest, and it's not like Bai Yu that everyone wants to die in the home world all day long - no matter how long they spend in the adventure world, in the city, it only counts as a day.

"I'm back." Lin Xiao nodded, and after a brief greeting, he asked, "Do you know what's going on outside?" ”

Everyone's eyes looked at Xu Le. This guy often haunts restaurants, tea shops, streets and alleys, and likes to listen to some market rumors and gossip, and he is the most well-informed. Especially after Lin Xiao introduced the head of the intelligence organization to Xu Le, this guy simply became an external member of this formal organization, claiming to have finally found the joy of life and the harbor of the soul~~

"Well, what are you staring at me, did you see me when I used soufflé whitening cream in the morning? Don't hit, don't slap your face! Okay, if you're ruthless, I'll just say it! A certain slut who couldn't live for his own sins took the pillow smashed on his face very depressed, and then said with a straight face:

"From the time I completed the novice trial and entered the city, the sky was always the same sunset red for thousands of years, although it was beautiful, it would be boring to watch for a long time. However, in the evening of this day, the sky suddenly changed, and the sunset red was soaked in a layer of inky black, and no one could say what was going on, and it was not clear whether the change was good or bad. ”

"When I encountered this kind of big event, of course I went to the office of Xiaoyou to inquire about the news as soon as possible, after all, I am the ear of the team, known as the one who knows astronomy and geography, uh, let me inquire." Speaking of this, Xu Le's face became solemn, "But when I went to the office, I found that most people didn't know the reason for the 'change of sky', only a few people seemed to be dead parents, their faces were gloomy and scary, and they seemed to be a little desperately gloomy." I tried to probe the wind, ahh ”

Everyone looked at Lin Xiao, waiting for his explanation.

"For example, if the city is a big tree, then we are parasitic bugs on the big tree." Lin Xiao nodded and said:

"The previous killing races, urban carnivals and the like were just the self-regulation of this big tree, but now, all adventurers, regardless of their strength, have encountered a huge catastrophe."

"In the past, it was just a small fight, going in and out, and at most it hurt the muscles and bones, but now someone has taken an axe and wants to cut this tree directly!"

Looking at the people who were silent when they heard this shocking news, Lin Xiao said quietly:

"Unfortunately, with our current strength, in this disaster, which can be called 'heavenly tilt', we are indeed as small as ants, and it is redundant to even go to the battlefield to serve as cannon fodder. Therefore, we must fend for ourselves and survive this disaster."

Everyone was silent, listening to Lin Xiao's narration, and a sense of despair inevitably rose. In fact, everyone knows that they are just worms in the hands of the master, and the reason why they work so hard is to one day be able to escape the fate of being wantonly toyed with

It's a pity that the time is not waiting for me. It's easy to say if you can hold it, but there is no need to say more about the end if you can't hold it.

Lao Huang laughed and said:

"Lao Tzu used to be a stinky old man who was a soldier, after he was discharged from the army, he worked as a security guard, helped people look at the gate, and drove a truck, living a hard life all day long, living a miserable life! What is there to lose by being able to come here, meet your brothers, and pick up the blood in your chest again! ”

One sentence directly washed away the bleak and gloomy clouds, and Lao Huang said again:

"And I believe you kid, how many times have we survived! This time I'm just rooting for you! ”

Lin Xiao was speechless, but there was a faint warm current surging in his heart.

(Brothers, partners, lovers, responsibilities are no longer the lonely ones who wander in dark corners!) ）

As he spoke, there was a sudden unfamiliar fluctuation from the Juggernaut, and an email was sent to Lin Xiao's private space. After clicking on it and taking a cursory glance, Lin Xiao's face suddenly became extremely strange, as if he suddenly saw Marilyn Monroe in an evening dress in a court drama, and that kind of surprised and incredible expression appeared on Lin Xiao's face, which was indeed quite rare.

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Lin Xiao directly took out a piece of parchment letterhead written with a quill pen from his private space, and said with a wry smile:

"See for yourselves."

Hey dear Lin, I'm Luffy!

Now the Great Voyage is not very smooth, and a few strange guys wearing red cloud robes on a black background have appeared in a row recently. They defeated Moonlight Moria and Don Quixote, and they didn't know what to do. What makes people angry is that there is a guy who actually summoned Ace's undead and is taking Ace and the redhead to fight, come and help me! How to say that we are also partners who have fought side by side, two brothers in one world, two glasses of wine and one mouthful!

There is also a line of Juanxiu font below:

The Great Voyage has been invaded by many unknown forces, there are ninjas who are hidden in the shadows and have not eaten Devil Fruits but have many strange abilities, there is a group of top chefs who specialize in hunting all kinds of sea kings, and a group of powerful strangers who wear bone masks and use strange knives This is something that has never happened in history, respected Weston. Lin, this operation is likely to be very dangerous, if it is inconvenient, you will not use it.

The signature at the bottom is: Nicole. Robin.

When everyone saw the content of this letter, they were very speechless, and they were quite speechless about Luffy, the guy who only had one side and pulled people to send them to death, but then again, isn't this a hot-blooded youth?

The letter was very short, but the news revealed was like a bombshell, which made everyone dizzy.

A crowd of seven in a cloud robe on a black background? Akatsuki organization? Naruto!

A chef who aims to cook all over the world? Captive of gastronomy!

A group of people wearing bone masks and using strange knives, broken faces? Death!

After reading the letter, everyone was prompted at the same time:

"You've been given the mission: Luffy's call for help, and you can freely choose whether to accept it or not."

"This quest must be accepted by adventurers who have entered the world of One Piece before, and you can enter it with your party."

It's a simple task prompt, but there is no mention of other vicarious initiation, conditions for completing the task, punishment for failing the task, and so on. But it made everyone feel a depressing atmosphere of 'the mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings'.

"This is another sign after the 'change of heaven'?"

"A chaotic and chaotic pirate adventure world, the more dangerous it is, the greater the reward"

Everyone was naturally thrilled when they saw it, but they were also a little uneasy in their hearts, and they couldn't make up their minds for a while. Lin Xiao said calmly:

"This letter can be held for twelve hours, which means that we still have half a day to prepare, but in fact, the relationship between me and Luffy is definitely not close to the point of life and death partners, at most, it is just to escape the prison together, so there should be a lot of people who have received this kind of invitation."

"In the adventurer's city, the greater the benefits, the greater the risks. We don't need to rush for a while, we first collect intelligence, get information, get ready, relax by the way, and recharge our energy. Be prepared, use all means, and give it your all. ”

"It must be, it must not be cowardly! What to lose is not to lose momentum! ”
