"I'll leave in half an hour, and I need to prepare my belongings."

Weizel replied lazily, and then he walked up the stairs he had just noticed to the second floor of the library.

"Let me straighten out my train of thought first......"

Avoiding the strange man, Wei Zede, who came to the second floor, pondered: "From the current point of view, the third master Wei that guy said should be my character identity in this mission scene...... And the content of this 'Earthfire Molten City' mission is definitely related to the expedition team that lost contact! ”

"D++ level mission...... I shouldn't be the only gamer! So where will everyone else be? Or can you only meet them after completing the first part of the main quest, 'Arrival in Alito Town'? ”

Just as Weizel was thinking about it, the belated cutscene came to his mind.

[Gamer "Wizard", your name in this mission scene is 'Wei Xiaoning'. Note: Because he ranks third in the younger generation of the Wei family, he is called Wei San. 】

With the cutscenes, specific information about 'Wei San' poured into Wei Zede's mind.

[When he was young and frivolous, Wei Xiaoning had participated in many "expeditions", and he was nicknamed "Wei Sanye" in the adventure industry at home and abroad. 】

"Is it role-playing again?"

Weized muttered, and when he had an idea of his current state, the voiceover of the Nightmare Land game system shifted again.

[The strange man Lin Pengyi is a member of the third national archaeological team and is under the direct management of Captain Liu Ru. Because he was in charge of logistical support in this national-level "archaeological expedition", he was able to escape after Liu Ru and other archaeological team members disappeared. 】

[Hint: The first part of the main quest 'Follow Lin Pengyi to Alito Town', the task is limited to 24 hours.] 】

When the cutscene ended, next to Weized's position, a bag appeared out of thin air.

"Huh? Is this what the system has in store for me? ”

While thinking, Wei Zede leaned over to open his bags and counted them.

"1 backpack, 1 sleeping bag, flint and fire sickle, 1 fanny pack, 2 light rods, 10 days' rations, 20 meters of hemp rope, 1 water bladder ......"

"Oh, and 1 grapple, 1 small hammer, and 10 pitons."

When Wei Zede carried this set of expedition equipment with him, the bags provided by the system gradually disappeared.

"It seems that this mission will not take too long, so be prepared for a long time!"

A few minutes later, a heavily armed Weized came from the second floor of the library.

"That's it! Let's go......"

After locking the book house tightly, Wei Zede hurriedly left with the man named Lin Pengyi.

At the moment before the train started, Wei Zedeyue and Lin Pengyi caught up with the car out of breath.

"Lao Lin, what is the goal of your archaeological team this time? What kind of dangers have they encountered? Tell me about it, so I'm prepared, huh? ”

After sitting in his seat, Wei Zede began to knock on the side, asking about some details of this mission.

In the face of Wei Zede's inquiry, Lin Pengyi was vague, and when he asked in a hurry, he spread his hands and said, "Third Master Wei, don't ask me!" It is a matter of state secrets, and I have no right to disclose any information to you...... Let's wait until we get to the place and let Professor Liu explain it to you! ”

"Professor Liu?"

"Yes! Professor Liu Kai'an, he is the father of Captain Liu Ru, and he is in charge of this rescue operation......"

Wei Zede exchanged a few more words with Lin Pengyi, and then sat silently on the train and said no more.

Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, a little after seven o'clock, the train finally arrived in the small town of Arrito.

As soon as he got off the train, Wei Zede saw a gray-haired old man looking around at the exit of the station.

"Professor Liu!"

Lin Pengyi said hello from afar.

The old man nodded at him, and then said to Wei Zede in an eager voice: "Xiao Ning, you can be regarded as here!" ”

"Our rescue team is waiting for you...... Fast! Get in the car and talk! ”

Following Professor Liu, Wei Zede and Lin Pengyi walked quickly through the square in front of the station and came to a dark green military off-road jeep.

"Professor Liu, shouldn't the rescue team just this one car and just a few of us?"

After getting into the car, Wei Zede, who was sitting in the back seat, asked Professor Liu, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"How can that? This car is specially here to pick you up! ”

Professor Liu smiled: "The rescue convoy has already set off. ”

After instructing the driver to speed up, Professor Liu turned his head to me and said, "Xiao Ning, this rescue operation is going to trouble you and your friends!" ”

"My friend?"

Wei Zede asked quietly, "Which friends are they?" Liu Lao, my Wei San's friends have gone a lot! ”

"Hehe, when you get to the place in a while, you'll know who it is!"

As he spoke, Professor Liu smiled bitterly twice, "Up to now, this girl Liu Ru has been missing for nearly five days!" But the rescue team couldn't even find where they were camping...... Xiao Lin, it's up to you to talk to Xiao Ning about the specific things. ”

Lin Pengyi, who was sitting on Wei Zede's right hand, lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, as if to calm his fear and anxiety.

"To be honest, until now, there are some things I still don't understand and can't figure out! I can only tell you all about my experience......"

Lin Pengyi took another deep puff of cigarette and spoke in a slightly trembling tone.

"This archaeological expedition was initiated by the Institute of Archaeology of the National Academy of Social Sciences, and its purpose was to carry out protective archaeological excavations of the Gaxian Cave, the ancestral stone chamber of the Northern Wei Dynasty."

"The archaeological team consisted of seven people, led by Liu Ru, a doctor of archaeology, and I was one of them. Due to my relatively old age, Captain Liu assigned me to be in charge of the logistics support of the archaeological team and other related matters. ”

"Seven days ago, the archaeological team arrived in the town of Arito. After a short rest, our group set off for Gaxian Cave, which is located 10 kilometers north of the town of Alito. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Pengyi took a big puff of cigarette again, and his expression became in a trance.

"After arriving at Gaxian Cave, we were all surprised to find that there were no tourists here!"

Captain Liu explained that this archaeological operation was extraordinary! The top has already said hello to the relevant departments, and in the process of our investigation, Gaxian Cave is temporarily closed to visitors. ”

"At that time, someone asked, how can a protective archaeological excavation be so exciting?"

"But Captain Liu's explanation shocked us immensely......"
