Chapter 12: Captain Silly Boy
Alicia's distress signal was fully sent, and all the ground troops received this signal, including the adventurers' squads! At this time, the adventurers had already penetrated deep into the hinterland of the swarm, and nearly four hours had passed since the battle, and they had encountered large forces of the swarm many times, most of their weapons and ammunition had been consumed, their power armor had been damaged, and the miniature nuclear bombs were only in the single digits.
But fortunately, no adventurer was killed or seriously injured, and even Ma Le, who was the most poor on the surface, barely survived. And this huge consumption has also brought gratifying results, the indicators released by the system, ordinary Zerg infantry and flying insects have been killed enough, there are still about fifty plasma scorpions, eight tank insects, and three giant artillery insects, and it is not far from completing the task.
At this time, Alicia's distress signal was received, which made it a little difficult for adventurers to choose.
Needless to say, if you save them, you will definitely trigger the hidden side quest, and the distance is not too far, only more than two hundred kilometers, and the adventurers are heading at full speed and should be able to arrive within an hour. Even if the power armor is damaged, they still have their own vehicles in the storage space, and they can still exert their speed in the relatively flat wasteland.
But this goes and solves it, it will consume a lot of time, although there is not much left of the task, but the time is not enough, if you can't arrive in time, the branch line is gone, and the time of the main line will be delayed, who knows what kind of bugs they encountered, and whether there are any types of tasks required...... Besides, this group of super soldiers is invincible, and the bugs that can make them send a distress signal are really unimaginable to adventurers......
After a simple discussion, everyone still decided to go to the rescue, anyway, they are all in the hinterland of the bugs, which direction to go, the probability of encountering bugs is about the same, maybe the main quest will be completed before the destination!
Deng Yunlong's team took out their own vehicles, two anti-gravity hovering vehicles, which easily reached a speed of more than 400 kilometers per hour, exactly six people. The Deadwood Clan's vehicle, on the other hand, is a sailboat that can sail against the wind, and can also levitate at low altitudes.
On the other hand, the urban management brigade here,There's really no particularly powerful vehicle.,Look for it.,Only the blue quality amphibious off-road vehicle that Ma Le got when he did the task in the school park revelation.,Compared with the two teams,It's just LOW.。
With this car, the Year of the Monkey and the Moon can only reach the place of the super soldier, but helplessly, the Deadwood Clan can only generously give up some space and let a few people from the Chengguan Brigade sit on their boat.
The biggest advantage of riding a vehicle is that it is fast, but there are also drawbacks. When searching for bugs, adventurers are on foot, fighting while searching, and although the speed is slow, they can always find bugs. But sitting in this kind of suspended vehicle, although the speed is fast and silent, it is often a wandering sight, and the insects are not alarmed. Bugs are not wandering outside all day long, usually most of the time are dormant, especially tank insects are good at burrowing and hiding, only the prey will come out of the door, so fly over, fast, but low efficiency.
So this gallop along the way, everyone only found two giant cannon worms that farted to the sky on the way, and two nuclear bombs to solve the battle, which can be regarded as a contribution to the main quest.
In the process of hurrying, the members of the Deadwood Team and the Chengguan Brigade also had some exchanges.
The Deadwood team, in addition to the Deadwood Daoren, there are two men and two women. The two who were sent out to investigate before, one was a hunchbacked deformed man named Turkey Lang, and the deformity was not congenital, but was modified to implement his fighting style. His arms were slender and permanently tucked in front of his chest, hunched over, his chest almost parallel to the ground, and his legs were surprisingly long, and he really looked like a turkey.
The code name used by Turkey Lang when he first entered the urban warfare system is no longer verifiable, and after becoming his current appearance, he was nicknamed Turkey, and he got used to it over time. However, judging from the fact that he can wear power armor, his body is not completely deformed, and he can still stretch his limbs if he wants to straighten his waist.
Another woman in her thirties, named Ye Mei, looks ordinary and has no sense of survival, but this is also the most outstanding thing about her, which can make people subconsciously ignore her existence and is very convenient to sneak. Although he can't reach the point of Creel, he is a very powerful assassin with this ability! But because it's an assassin, his personality seems to be a little gloomy, and he doesn't like to talk much.
Ji Shi, the woman who treated Ma Le's arm before, is undoubtedly the doctor in the team. She is in her early twenties, sweet-looking, cheerful and optimistic, but very talkative. But although there are a lot of words, this girl's mouth is very strict, and when she is asked a sensitive question, she will always look at you with a smile, and she will not reveal any important information in the team, but Shangguan is easy to be tricked by her, if it is not for the Persian cat to stop her, she may not say anything.
And the fourth person is a tall and sunny boy, named James, who is a rare white man in Miracle City, who has been using standard equipment in the battle with bugs, and his shooting skills are very high, almost without missing a shot, a real sharpshooter, it can be speculated that his own weapons should also be firearms.
"By the way, is it really your first time participating in a senior-level mission?" James smiled: "Your ability is very strong, and senior veterans may not have this kind of strength!" ”
"Of course not!" The Persian cat smiled: "When I was at the ordinary level, I also jumped the level to participate in the mission. But being promoted to the senior level is indeed a matter after the end of the last world! ”
"It's amazing!" James clapped his hands and said, and the turkey man on the side laughed weirdly: "I said that your captain won't be looking for a rookie to drag down the rating, right?" ”
"Does he look so good?" The Persian cat smiled slightly: "Speaking of which, your team is also very interesting, an old man from the Dead Wood Dao, the four of you are all young people, is it a coincidence?" ”
Ji Shi looked back at the deadwood Taoist who was operating the spaceship, and smiled mysteriously: "How secure it is to be with an elder, the captain is our spiritual pillar!" ”
"Don't you feel annoyed?" Shangguan dragged his chin: "Old men are all brainless, they will always be unaccustomed to this, can't get used to that, especially eventful......"
"Our captain is different, he has a young heart!" Ji Shi respected his captain very much, turned his head to look at Ma Le who was sitting in the corner, and asked with a smile: "What about you, don't you feel aggrieved if you follow the captain who is so much weaker than you?" ”
The Persian cat smiled slightly: "That's because you only see his weak side, and you don't see the time when he is powerful!" ”
"Oh?" Ji Shi became interested and came to Ma Le's side: "Captain Gourmet? ”
Ma Le glanced at her, nodded and said, "Miss Ji Shi, thank you for coming to the rescue......"
"You're welcome!" Ji Shi patted Ma Le on the shoulder: "But then again, looking at your five big and three thick, I didn't expect you to be a mage!" ”
Ma Le was puzzled: "Mage? ”
Ji Shi said with a smile: "When I treated you, I found out that your life is not high, your body is weak, and your strength is not strong. What kind of spell are you practicing, sue me! ”
"I ......" Ma Le hesitated for a moment and cleared his throat: "I can do any spell!" ”
"For example?"
"For example......" Ma Le frowned and thought for a while, and said, "I will heal myself!" ”
Ji Shi listened, was stunned for two seconds, and then laughed out loud: "Hahaha, will you heal yourself?" When the arm was cut off, he was crying and howling, like killing a pig! ”
Ma Le smiled embarrassedly, raised his hand and scratched the back of his head.
Ji Shi glanced at him: "What are you smiling, weak and timid, and stupid ......" But halfway through, he also laughed.
"That's right......" Ma Le seemed to suddenly remember something, raised the hand that was exposed due to the damage of the power armor, and took out a string of small and delicate pendants from the storage bag of the power armor.
"For you!" Ma Le gossip pendant handed it to Ji Shi.
"It's beautiful!" Ji Shi was a little surprised, took the pendant, and put it in his hand fluttering: "What is this made of, it doesn't look like jade, and it doesn't look like metal!" ”
Ma Le took out the high-frequency concussion saber, and said with a smile: "I made it with a bug shell...... Thank you for saving me! ”
"You made it yourself?" This was completely out of Ji Shi's expectations, she saved this man just out of the captain's intention, in order to show the ability of the Deadwood team. I didn't expect this gourmand captain to actually make something with his own hands to thank her...... Anyway, if you express your gratitude among adventurers, shouldn't you send some credits and equipment or something? And it's bloody along the way, this guy still has time to play carving? I really didn't have any strength at all...... Also, after processing the insect shell and giving it to the girl, this guy's nerves are big enough......
"Wait a minute, there are too many slots, I don't know where to spit it out......" Ji Shi waved his hand, sorted out his thoughts, and finally looked at Ma Le's clear eyes, and asked seriously: "Forget about the rest, you won't peel this shell directly from the corpse of the insect, right?" ”
"Yes......" Ma Le nodded.
"That means that this material is the original product of this world, even if it is made into a pendant, it can't be brought out of this world, right?"
Ji Shi explained this most fundamental problem in one sentence, not to mention the value of this thing, it is not enough to even make souvenirs, and it can't be taken away at all!
Ma Le also realized this, and was a little flustered for a while: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but I really don't have anything better to send you to express my gratitude...... This ......"
"It's okay!" Ji Shi patted Ma Le's head lightly and said with a smile: "Although I can't take it away, I will always remember this!" It's the first time I've had other adventurers give me such a 'useless' thing since I became an adventurer, but I'm really impressed! ”
