Chapter 535: Party A and Party B
The light spilled down.
The long-lost warmth of daylight shines on the white-gold city, a perfect replica of a historic city, with devout believers walking through solid metal streets, each with a silver cross hanging from their chest.
The clouds, which had been empty not long ago, had turned blue, and under a clear sky, five men and women in suits stood in a square. Thousands of strangely coloured pigeons surround the open space around them motionless like sculptures, giving them an eerie sense of tranquility.
After completing this mission, the plane travelers, out of some kind of plot inertia, set the coordinates of the waypoint in Trafalgar Square in central London, or ...... On the site of Trafalgar Square.
In view of the fact that the entire city of London had been plowed several times by nuclear bombs, and that the buildings and ground in the city center had been largely transformed into glazed mirrors, it took a long time for everyone to clean up the radiation and rebuild the city, and then to move in a large number of people from Europe, and it took a lot of effort to restore the city to its pre-war prosperity.
Since this is a high-level quest for base world building, the rewards for completing the quest are also quite generous. It includes five blank six-star item cards, a commemorative version of the Sword of Rebellion and the Yama Knife, as well as a five-star enchanted item Dante's trench coat, and at the end of each person the title of Demon Conqueror.
"What kind of ...... is this" Su Jing squinted his eyes at the glittering title in his character card, "Is this the World Hub updating the game version and developing a new system, or is it some hidden reward......
"It's just that you didn't care before." Lu Mengyao took off her sunglasses from the collar and put them on the bridge of her delicate nose, "If the task evaluation is high, the title will be given according to the table." Once equipped in a character card, you can have certain universal effects - basically just a cosmetic and collectible item that can be useful in low-level worlds. One of the major advantages of high-level adventurers after entering low-level worlds is the title warehouse that cannot be weakened. ”
"Ah. When you enter the Gold level, you will be awarded a title that matches your personal ability...... Unless there are special circumstances, most adventurers generally wear that personal title and will not change. "Su Luo put on sunglasses early." For example, Mei Mei's title is [Secretary of Heaven], even if she runs to the black iron world, she can use many holy light skills, which is very convenient. ”
The five stood in a row facing the portal, all wearing sunglasses on their faces.
The placement of the portal is not a very complicated task, just put a bead [coordinate point (system item)] attached to the world center in the clearance reward on the ground and activate it. Distorting the light, a colossal Gothic arch in the style of the world appears in front of the statue of General Nelson, framed with tiny reliefs of angels and demons battling each other, decorated with roses and brambles.
After Su Luo summoned Metatron, one of the Seven Angels, everyone waited for the angels who came to receive the territory.
The light suddenly flourished. A heavy footstep stepped out of the shadow of the portal. In addition to the sense of oppression brought by his tall size, Su Jing felt an extremely majestic sense of existence, as if a giant battleship that could move appeared in front of him. Unlike Metatron's amiable cuteness, this gold-level adventurer, who is undoubtedly among the Seven Great Angels, is imbued with a strong sense of solemnity.
Fortunately, everyone was prepared and put on sunglasses. Su Jing looked at the man who appeared in front of him behind the lens.
To be honest, just looking at him himself, he can't see that he has the slightest relationship with the "angel". The tall middle-aged man who walked out of the portal was dressed in a dark blue jacket that had been washed and somewhat old, with seven or eight strings of ornaments and ancient coins of different totems hanging around his neck, and a triangular pirate hat on his head. Black leather boots on his feet, a tinkling flask hanging from his waist - this is an old pirate who looks like a mess.
The most striking thing may be the messy handful of thick black beard under his chin, which was tied with a black rope, and Su Jing's eyes narrowed. Watch as he scratches his hair with the huge iron hook in his left hand.
"This is Edward Blackbeard. Tichy, or 'Vice-King of Heaven' Michael. Su Luo coughed and introduced her teammates who were in a moment's confusion. The pirate outfit is the standard attire of the Sacred Heavens, for a reason that is difficult to explain. There is also a story that involves theology...... I'll explain it more carefully when I get to their headquarters later. ”
"Bafant." Michael looked at Su Luo with a frown in a hoarse voice that was not very friendly, "I didn't expect you. ”
Su Luo licked her lips. "Things are impermanent, right, Blackbeard."
"Michael."
"Michael." Su Luo raised her hand in surrender.
"Let's make the handover, we still have something to do." Su Jing stepped forward and shook hands with the vice-monarch of the kingdom of heaven, Michael's left hand was an iron hook, and his right hand was not much better, it was as cold and hard as carved out of wood. Su Jing noticed that Blackbeard under the captain's hat was staring at him coldly with one eye.
"It's a beautiful hook." Su Jing didn't say completely politely, "I've always wanted one." ”
"There's going to be a chance." Michael said sternly, "Mr. Su Jing, welcome you to the honorary saint of the Divine Heaven, a title that is rarely given to non-believers. ”
He turned his head to look at Su Luo, frowned, and said, "If you want to participate in the next war process, Bafengte's survival will be a more difficult problem. Many people in Divine Heaven, myself included, don't think well of her. ”
"I've changed my ways!" Su Luo raised her hand in an attempt to show her sense of existence.
Su Jing, who quickly decided to flee from this meeting, took out a thick book and stuffed it into the pirate captain's hand, "The current situation of this world, as well as the manuals for the large number of nanomechanical creations left here, as well as the satellite signal base station for psychic control, are all recorded in the book. ”
Michael flipped the pages of the book with a hook, nodded dispensably, and said, "Thank you for your assistance, in fact, you just need to hand over the teleportation authority to us during the development period." We will complete the next series of procedures. ”
"It's a pleasure to work with."
"It's a pleasure to work with."
The two sides shook hands again. Then the motionless pigeons around the square moved at the same time, and the metal creatures fluttered their wings and flew into the sky. The rocket vent under the ass is exposed. Thousands of lit pigeon butts slowly took off, and the high heat blew the hair of the crowd. Michael held down his large hat and looked up at the scene.
Then thousands of pigeons exploded in the air like firecrackers, and many small rolls of ribbon paper floated out of the pigeon's corpses, flying around with all kinds of metal waste, adding a bit of cheap atmosphere to this platinum holy city standing on the ground.
“……”
Su Jing slapped the mechanic's little head silently.
――――――
While it was interesting to see what the Holy Pirate Lord would do to the world, the Plane Travelers, who had a personal grudge to settle, hurried back to New York via the Guò teleportation device.
"We need to find Konstantin as quickly as possible, and it is clear that most of the prophecy methods will not be of any use to him." In the public apartment of the science and technology alliance, Lu Mengyao swept aside the crystal ball and the Ouija board on the table. "Considering that we have now turned against Hell, then the information channel for Paradise Lost is no longer safe......"
Su Luo revealed the black compass on the back of his hand, shrugged his shoulders and said, "He left this world, and my 'Golden Compass' stand-in didn't work. ”
Su Jing has been playing a Rubik's Cube. He used his stand-in ability to directly disassemble the Rubik's Cube into parts, and then kept reassembling it, and had a lot of fun. When Lu Mengyao looked at him, he threw the Rubik's Cube on the table.
"I know there's something I should be able to find him."
Five minutes later, the top floor of the Science and Technology Union Building.
"My eyes?"
"God of Algorithms" Meng Shenji furrowed his eyebrows slightly. This eleven-star top god and demon still lives in this mansion as the incarnation of a young man. As one of the five directors of the Science and Technology Alliance. The incarnation of the god of algorithms can be said to be extremely rare, and it is said that there are no more than one palm.
"The 'Eye of Cause and Effect' is a ten-star artifact, and in essence, it is the ultimate existence that is enough to surpass a qiē adventurer......" Meng Shenji rubbed his lips with his fingers. I lowered my head and thought for a moment.
"Why not?" Celestia, the Alicorn lying comfortably on the fabric sofa, raised one of her front hooves, "Xiao Meng, is it really good to close your strength like this?" ”
"Temperance is a virtue." The boy replied in an unusually clear voice. But he turned his head again, "Still." If I hadn't used it myself, I might have been able to accommodate it. Su Jing Boy. ”
"Yes." Su Jing bowed lightly respectfully.
"Fill out an application form. Internal applications should also be kept on file. Meng Shenji held up a finger, "Then, I can only borrow you to use it once." Remember, you can only use it, and none of your lovers can touch it. ”
A silver thread flashed in his eyes: "If it weren't for the mess involving Shandu, I wouldn't have agreed to your application so lightly...... Don't let the secrets of the Demon Hunting Worm leak to the outside, this is my request, that is, you must succeed. ”
The expression on Su Jing's face remained unchanged, and his thoughts had turned several times.
"It's inevitable."
After he left, there was peace between the gods and demons on the top floor.
The blue-haired girl, who had a relationship with Su Jing in the Cthulhu world, climbed out from behind the couch where Princess Celestia was sleeping with a tray in her arms, and exhaled deeply. She tweaked a little clumsily as she sorted out the refreshments on the table and poured a hot cup of tea for the Alicorn princess.
"What is your impression of him?" The incarnation of the god of machines asked meaningfully.
"Uh...... OK? The girl named Twilight Sparkle tries to get more out of the question.
Celestia leisurely picked up the black tea and said, "Maybe one day in the future, you will need his strength." So remember his name and you can trust him. (To be continued......)
PS: March 1st...... I was relieved......
Bear with me a little longer...... I'll be able to open the sky...... You can code as many words as you like...... (Actually, probably not.)
It's just pre-dawn darkness......
