Chapter 557: Marching South
"Is this it?"
At the entrance to the Pirate Bay Tavern, the streets are bustling with people.
Luo Yu glanced at the map and photos on the VM screen, and then glanced at the faΓ§ade in front of him, his eyes gradually becoming excited.
You can't go wrong!
This is it!
"Xiao Yu, let's go!"
"Hmmm!"
After confirming the target, Luo Yu immediately pushed open the door and walked in.
Behind him, the ten exoskeleton-wrapped creatures followed him through the open door.
They are all fruiting entities of Xiao Yu, they have no independent consciousness, and share the same consciousness body as the brood, which is equivalent to Xiao Yu's hands and eyes.
Strictly speaking, the fruiting body cannot be too far away from the mother, especially since Xiaoyu is different from other broods, and the medium of transmission of information is not spores, but sounds with a short distance.
However, the manager's brain hole installed a headset for them, and the original shortcomings instantly turned into advantages.
Although Xiao Yu's body cannot leave the shelter, as long as it is within the signal coverage of the alliance, Feather One, Feather Two, and Feather Three γ...... Yu Ten can communicate with the brood as a brain without any obstacles.
In order not to scare passers-by NPCs, Luo Yu took advantage of the discount on Boulder City's armaments some time ago and equipped them all with K-10 iron-walled exoskeletons that were originally priced at 30,000 chips.
When the helmet mask was closed, it was almost impossible to see what was inside the exoskeleton, only to see him followed by ten big men dressed in iron bumps.
Thanks to this, wherever he goes now, he can attract a large number of onlookers.
"Guest, somethingβ"
Hearing the wind chimes at the door, the bartender standing behind the bar had just spoken half a sentence when he met the array of black and shiny exoskeletons.
Calming down, he changed his words.
"You're here to take the commission?"
"Hmm!" Walking straight to the bar, Luo Yu nodded excitedly, showing the VM on his arm, "That B-level commission!" β
As soon as the group stepped into the tavern, they attracted the attention of countless people, and when they heard that this young man had received a B-class commission, everyone whispered again.
"B-class? The Mercenary Guild has only been open for a few days, why are there all people in the B rank? β
"The rules of the mercenary group seem to be different, I heard that there are special appraisal and assessment standards."
"It seems that the Awakened can apply for a rating? Don't start with a G ......"
"I see......"
"But this equipment ...... It's from the regular army, right? β
Strictly speaking, rookies who have just entered the industry are not allowed to take on B-level mercenary tasks, but the mercenary guild has just opened, unlike the scientific research group that has been there since the A test, and those high-level commissions can't be waited.
Therefore, there will be a setting such as "placement match".
Players who have just registered as a member of the Mercenary Guild, as long as the level exceeds LV10, that is, they meet the conditions of an awakening, they can calculate a combat power score according to the combat professional level of soldiers, hunters and other combat professions, and the system will assign three tasks that meet the combat power standards.
For example, the three missions are C, C+, and B, and the player completes C, C+, and B fails, and the initial level is C+.
If all three tasks are completed, the starting level is B.
If all three missions fail. _o_m
You'll have to start and climb up the G-class.
Since the client usually has limited information, the level determination is not absolute, and it is not possible to determine the difficulty of a task marked as C-level as S-class.
For players, opening the blind box is also one of the fun of Wasteland OL.
"B-level commission...... Well, this task is not easy to do," the bartender who approached the VM and glanced at him twice, touched his chin with his index finger, and then looked at Luo Yu and said, "Wait a minute, I'll call my boss." β
With that, he turned and walked into the back kitchen behind the bar.
Luo Yu waited in front of the bar for a while. (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 557: Marching South
Soon someone sat down on a stool next to him and stretched out his right hand to him.
"White Shark, I'm the boss here."
Looking at the NPC, Luo Yu said to himself.
"Feathers!"
Glancing at the row of bodyguards wearing exoskeletons behind him, White Shark had a rough idea of the strength of this mercenary group in his heart, and looked at the young man sitting in front of him again.
"Falling feathers, huh...... Funny name, Vault dweller? β
Falling feathers are simply.
"yes, what's the problem?"
"No problem, just a casual conversation. I don't think anyone other than you would be interested in this kind of winter mission," White Shark smiled faintly and continued, "Then I'll get straight to the point." β
As he spoke, he took out a tablet and clicked on it twice, synchronizing the task information to the VM of the young man in front of him.
Luo Yu immediately opened the VM and glanced at it.
The moment he saw the reward of the mission, he immediately held his breath. _o_m
100,000 silver coins!!
This, that's too much!
Seeing the young man's expression when he fell into the eyes of the money, the white shark beckoned to the sprinkler behind the bar and asked for two glasses of honey water.
Picking up one of the cups and taking a sip, he moistened his throat and continued.
"The employer is a southern trader from a settlement called Songguomu Farm, located in the area of Geumha, Geumcheon Province, and the coordinates of that settlement should have been updated on your map."
Looking away from the commission, Luo Yu cast a puzzled look at the man named White Shark.
"Farmstead?"
"It's just a farm," White Shark said softly with a faint smile, "It's a well-known settlement in the local area, and there are quite a few residents, I heard that there are about fifty or sixty thousand. At least four of the merchants I know have their hometowns there. β
Geumha-si.
It seems that the garbage lord and the strongman are also over there, but they are in a small village called Dust Town to the north, and they have not heard anything about the situation of other settlements.
Luo Yu said clearly.
"I see."
White Shark continued.
"Your mission is twofold, one is to transport a batch of arms worth 500,000 silver coins there, mainly some rifles, bullets, and anti-materiel weapons. You don't have to worry about the transportation, you are only responsible for the escort, and when you get the delivery order, you can complete one-third of the payment. β
The unit price of an LD-47 is about 300 silver coins, and a 7mm bullet has dropped to 0.5~0.6 silver coins, which are the most stable industrial products in the alliance at present.
The amount of arms of 500,000 silver coins is already quite a lot, and it is estimated that it will take four or five trucks to pull it away.
Luo Yu nodded, indicating understanding.
"What about the remaining two-thirds of the pay?"
"The local lord's name is Zhao Tiangan, and there is a six-year-old maid in his family, named Yang Xiaoyang, no matter what method you use, bring her over safely."
Luo Yu frowned.
"Kidnapping?"
"It's to save people," corrected his statement, White Shark smiled faintly, and continued in a playful tone, "Not everyone is qualified to help the landlord do business, either relatives or hostages...... You probably already understand what I mean, right? β
Luo Yu nodded.
"yes, got it."
No matter what the contract between the merchant and the local lord was, or what the interests were, what he did was not a bad job.
That's enough.
Seeing the blue coat nodding, the white shark continued slowly.
"In short, the client and the mission target are immediate family members, and your guild will also verify this, so don't chase me and ask, and you don't always want to inquire about the client's private affairs...... Anyway, after you find someone, take her to the guild in Boulder City, you. (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 557: Marching South
You can get all the payouts. β
"The client will stay here during this time, and it is not impossible for you to talk to him after the fact, if the other party is willing."
Luo Yu made an OK gesture and jumped off the stool.
"Okay, wait for my news."
The distance of seven or eight hundred kilometers is probably a month.
But for the sake of 100,000 silver coins, it's worth it!
And in addition to this main task, he can also pick up some side lines along the way, or pick up a personal job from the forum or something.
Thinking of this, Luo Yu was full of enthusiasm and couldn't wait to set off now.
Looking at the blue coat that turned around and was about to leave, the white shark suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly called out to stop him.
"Wait a minute."
Luo Yu stopped and looked back at him.
"Anything else?"
White Shark said in a casual tone.
"I don't have anything else to do, but there's been a little bit of a problem in the place you're going...... Here's extra advice from the intelligence traffickers. Although the client has given you two months, if you want to get the full commission, I advise you to hurry. β
Thinking of the discussion on the forum yesterday, Luo Yu vaguely read something from the expression of the NPC in front of him, and frowned slightly.
Is it related to the Torch Church?
"I see."
Looking at the serious expression of the young man in front of him, White Shark smiled and nodded.
"It's better to really know."
β¦β¦β¦
In the open space in front of the Boulder Military Industrial Building.
Twelve light trucks lined up, and crews wearing KV-1 exoskeletons were loading boxes of cargo onto the wagons.
These items include military supplies such as weapons and ammunition, electronic equipment such as radios and hibernation pods, and some personal belongings of the players themselves.
Just a short distance from the convoy, one hundred and twenty players had already completed the assembly.
In addition to the Type 5 and Type 6 exoskeletons equipped by most players, there are also five "Dragoon" exoskeletons on the list!
happened to come here to buy a prosthetic body, and when he saw the quit smoking wearing power armor, the elf king Fugui's eyes suddenly widened.
"Fuck, quit smoking, you're selling your ass?!"
Quit smoking and roll my eyes.
"Fuck off! You're selling ass! β
Staring at the mechanical power armor with envy, Elf King Fugui couldn't help but reach out and touch the angular breastplate.
"A million silver coins! MMP, it's not worth that much to sell me! β
I was embarrassed to be looked at by that straight look, quit smoking and coughed dryly, explaining.
"Ahem...... This power armor is not actually mine, it belongs to the Corps. β
Hearing this, the Elf King Fugui was stunned.
"Isn't it true that the logistics point can't be exchanged for power armor?"
If he remembered correctly, the logistics points of the corps system could only be exchanged for assembly line products that could be produced by the alliance's military factories, and even personalized customized equipment such as prostheses were not supported.
Looking at the confused elf brother, quitting smoking and smiling embarrassedly.
ββ¦ Didn't I contribute to the rank of Knight? Lao Bai, they scraped together a million silver coins and bought them with my quota. Although this power armor is tied to my account, it is actually from the Corps, and it will be worn by others if necessary. β
Lao Bai's reason is very direct, after all, the power armor in the store is limited, and the "Dragoon" is a rare pre-war model, and it is not sure when it will be new when it is sold out.
When you save enough money, maybe you won't have this one for a long time, so it's better to help him buy it first, and treat it as the equipment of the corps.
At first, it was embarrassing to quit smoking, after all, it was a million silver coins, but after passing it once, he was not hypocritical.
In addition to him, there are also two main T's in the corps, and the physique players whose contribution level has been trained to the knight level have also been stained. @η²Ύε\/Shuge*First update~~
As for why only. (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 557: Marching South
I bought five units, because there were a total of fifteen units hung up in the store, and I was afraid of being scolded if I bought them all. _o_m
The early version of the game itself was already a big advantage, and you have to leave a little bit of the game experience for others.
What's more, such expensive equipment is not a good brother who has been born and died together, and it is impossible to hang it in someone else's name casually.
The game does not recognize the transaction of binding equipment ownership, but it does not prohibit players from borrowing equipment from each other.
If anyone really swallows the equipment hanging in their name, the person who pays for it can only be speechless.
It is precisely because of this that after listening to the words of quitting smoking, the elf king Fugui was suddenly shocked.
"! Is that okay?! β
The sprouts of several skeleton corps next to him also said with envy.
"Envy cried!"
"Hey, *** mole is too picky!"
"That's it! If you don't give us benefits, forget it, and borrow money from us! β
Although the mole guy didn't ask them to borrow a few new ones, it didn't prevent them from substituting for the good brothers who were borrowed.
Looking at the few wailing newcomers, Fang Chang, who was standing on the side, said with a smile.
"Calm down, you mole brother is still in the early stages of entrepreneurship, just wait for him to get on the right track in the skeleton studio in Ideal City."
Listening to the flatbread drawn by Fang Chang, one of the sprouts couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"That's it......"
Fang Chang said with a smile.
"You'll be able to make more money."
Meng Xin: "%Β₯#@!" β
That being said, there is one thing to say, Brother Mole is actually quite righteous, and his popularity and reputation in the server are also very good.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many players following him, let alone pooling together so many silver coins to lend him to start a business.
Fang Chang believed that when the Skull Studio really became bigger and stronger, Brother Mole would definitely not treat his good buddies in his own regiment badly.
"By the way, why don't you make a power armor?" Ye Shi glanced at the exoskeleton on Fang Chang's body and asked curiously.
Gently patting the "Dawnbreaking" mechanical bow behind his back, Fang Chang said calmly.
"I've got this enough."
Power armor is not the optimal solution.
Even the lightweight OD-10 Dragoon has a certain impact on mobility.
For him, the performance of the Type 5 "light cavalry" power armor was completely sufficient.
Coupled with the bulletproof lining and optical camouflage insert he modified, basically all kinds of combat scenarios can be adapted, and even the prosthesis is redundant.
Tempest glanced at Night Ten and teased.
"Look at the pattern of other people, you said that you are a black gun, and it is useful to wear power armor? It's better to save up money to get an exoskeleton with an optical camouflage insert. β
He is also not equipped with power armor.
Modifying prosthetics and drones is the future of intelligence.
Night Ten rolled his eyes.
"Cut! There is no pattern! β
"Hahaha! It's okay, who says snipers can't wear heavy armor anymore? Fang Chang smiled and patted Ye Shi's shoulder, "Brother, I'm optimistic about you!" β
Everyone is almost there.
Walking to the front of the queue, the old white index finger tapped on the helmet, turned on the speaker, and shouted loudly.
"The mission briefing has been updated on your VM, and our destination is a settlement called Dust Town in the northern part of Geumkawa City, Geumcheon Province."
"The garbage guy has already stepped there for us in advance, and we are going to build an operational base there and then recover 127 tons of nuclear fuel from the research facilities in the city."
"The whole journey is nearly 800 kilometers, and more than half of the sections are mountainous, which is expected to take a week to arrive, and the task period is about half a month."
"The convoy will depart from the East Gate at twelve o'clock at noon! The advance team followed me on the plane in a while, and we followed the engineers of the logistics department to go over in the Viper! β
This mission is not. (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 557: Marching South
It's just recycling nuclear fuel, and it's also including the investigation of the local survivor forces and mutant tribes in Geumkawa City.
The first advance team will be the first to arrive at the settlement of Geumhe City, where they will set up a series of infrastructure, including communication base stations, set up archiving points, and conduct reconnaissance of the situation in the city.
The rest of the players will follow the convoy to deliver supplies and building materials to Dusttown, and cooperate with the logistics department to complete the construction of the operation base.
All preparations are in place.
Lao Bai, who was wearing power armor, walked to the elevator and was about to take the elevator to the tarmac on the roof of the building, when he suddenly saw an unexpected figure.
Wearing the uniform of the scientific expedition team, Chen Yutong was holding a suitcase in his hand and walked in this direction.
Her eyes happened to meet Lao Bai, and she smiled and took the initiative to say hello.
"Hey."
This "hey" full of stories made Lao Bai's back stick to more than a dozen pairs of eyes.
"Hey, what a coincidence."
In the communication channel, the bad one secretly learned, Ye Shi frowned and patted Lao Bai's shoulder, and then followed Fang Chang and Storm to the elevator.
Fang Chang, who was standing on the elevator, also laughed and teased.
"The elevator is full, let's wait for the next trip."
Before he could finish speaking, Tempest had silently pressed the button to close the door and closed the elevator door.
These dog things......
Crying and laughing, he looked away from the rising elevator, Lao Bai looked at Ms. Chen, who was walking towards this side, and coughed lightly and said.
"Why are you here?"
Walking to the side of the elevator and stopping, Chen Yutong said with a smile.
"Can't I see you off?"
Lao Bai glanced at the suitcase she was carrying.
"Do I need to bring a suitcase?"
"You've found out."
With a smile, Chen Yutong stretched out his index finger and pressed the button on the elevator, and continued in a casual tone.
"For some reasons that are inconvenient to disclose, the alliance has raised the threat level of 'Nago'. The Institute of Biology hopes to get more research materials to speed up the research on Naguo, and at the same time, the scientific expedition team also has some investigation work that needs to be carried out locally, and I am currently in charge of this work, so I have to trouble you to give me a ride. β
Lao Bai glanced at the holographic screen on the inside of the helmet, and there was indeed an extra line of branches in the VM's taskbar, obviously this one would not joke about this kind of thing.
Looking at Chen Yutong again, he subconsciously glanced up and down at the equipment on her body, and couldn't help frowning.
"It's too dangerous there, are you sure you want to come with us?"
Qingquan City has been almost developed by players, as long as it doesn't go deep into the Fifth Ring Road, there is basically no big threat.
However, the province of Geshikikawa is different.
Before they passed, there were only three players there, and they were only active in a small area on the northern outskirts.
Outside of the player's activity area, there are not only mutant tribes with a size of more than 10,000 people, but the Torch Church in the south is eyeing the land beneath their feet.
You can imagine how dangerous it is there.
"It's more dangerous to leave those things alone."
Gently flicking the bangs that fell on the tip of her nose, she continued in a joking tone, "And isn't there you?" β
Lao Bai stared at her eyes for a while, making sure that she was mentally ready to return to the front line. @η²Ύε\/Shuge Error-free Debut~~
"Get off the plane - no, everything is at my command when you get on the plane, and you have to report to me when you need to go to work! Also, the luggage was given to me. β
"Thank you."
Chen Yutong handed over the suitcase, looked at Lao Bai who took the suitcase, and said in a playful voice.
"Although I want to say that I have already died once, it feels good to be cared for."
It's okay to die once......
That's also called death?
γ (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 557: Marching South
Looking at the back of the elevator, Lao Bai shook his head with a smile, and didn't know what to say about this guy's heart.
He, who has died several times, does not dare to guarantee 100% that he will come back alive from every mission.
In a word......
You can only be more careful.
