Chapter 9: Rational Squeezing

Early in the morning, Ling Hao opened his eyes, and what he saw was the familiar white ceiling.

He gradually woke up from the single plank bed, then sighed slightly, and quickly got up to wash and change.

Planning to save some money today and not order takeout, Ling Hao opened the refrigerator and took out the ingredients to cook it simply, and the breakfast was ready.

Just like working alone in the previous life, he, an outsider from the Gaia world, felt that his life at the moment was almost no different from the original world.

And there is no fundamental difference between the level of technology in this world and the blue star in the previous life.

But if you really want to calculate, there is still a slight difference.

'Gaia' seems to be in a special location, and every once in a while, a large area of land will be invaded by meteorite rain from outside the sky.

Because of this factor, his government called the 'Alliance' is not in a position to build outer space technology such as satellites.

This phenomenon is called a natural disaster by the locals of Gaia.

It is precisely because of the existence of natural disasters that the concept of the state is extremely diluted for the locals. Each of the large cities has little communication with each other, and they are all in a state of self-sufficiency.

Not to mention building connecting highways, they even wish to use the 'Holy Shield' protection system to protect against natural disasters that are constantly attacking, and also want to completely isolate the city from the outside world.

It was as if there was something terrible in the wilderness that the leaders avoided talking about it.

All in all, from the perspective of Ling Hao, an outsider, the large cities of the 'Alliance' were all isolated islands on the earth, and there was almost no intersection between them.

But even so, Chenghai is still a huge independent city, with a recorded population of tens of millions, and it belongs to one of the most developed regions in the alliance.

As for why he has a network on his phone?

The buried wire is set up with a base station, and basically every city has a large LAN with its own, and the internal signal is still very good.

Sorting out his clothes and taking the two books on the table, Ling Hao left his cozy nest that was not worthy of being a person.

Hossman's bookstore is not far from his home, about a 10-minute walk away.

But every time he walked on the road, the bustling crowd as far as his eyes could see always made him feel empty.

Obviously, they are all the same people and walk on the same streets, but the loneliness in Ling Hao's heart will always find a sense of existence every once in a while.

During this period, I passed by an apartment building and saw a happy family of three, and they looked very happy and happy.

Alas, if it were possible, he would rather not cross over to Gaia.

Living a life without surprises in a similar but not world, without the words and things he is familiar with, this is no less than a kind of torture for Ling Hao.

"It's better not to cross the ......"

Unknowingly, he came to the library, and the boy retracted his divergent thoughts and entered it.

"Hossman, I'm here to return the book." Entering the library and coming to the counter, Ling Hao handed the two books he had borrowed earlier to the old man, and then he saw that three meters away, a white-haired girl was sitting on a chair leaning on the counter.

The latter has a delicate and beautiful face that will not be forgotten at a glance, but the fly in the ointment is that the dark circles under the eyes are a bit serious, which destroys that unique temperament.

"Boy, I advise you not to look around, this is my friend's child." Hossman warned blandly. As long as the few guests in front of him dared to make a slight frivolous move, then he would be sorry to be rude.

He can't control the outside, but this is his own territory, and he has the final say.

In this regard, Ling Hao shrugged his shoulders and said that he was a serious person, and then went to the bookshelf to find a few books and find a place to sit down.

On the other side, after confirming that Ling Hao was not a frivolous person, Hossman pushed the prepared coffee to Maria. "Miss, this is the coffee you wanted."

"Ah, thank you." I took a sip weakly. At this time, the latter had a "fairy aura" on his face, as if he was going to die suddenly in the next second.

The old man couldn't help frowning when he saw this, but after glancing at Ling Hao not far away, he still couldn't hold back his curiosity and turned to do what he should be busy with.

The movement of leaving made Ling Hao's attention return from the book, and he couldn't help but look at the white-haired girl on the counter curiously.

There is no way, the white hair and red pupils have a special attack, this is an instinct that cannot be resisted.

But after a few glances, he found that the other party gave people the feeling of 'I have seen through all the joys and sorrows, and the world is not worth going through'.

Why is there a visible frustration at a young age? Is this being abandoned by a scumbag playing with feelings and deceiving the body, and then losing sleep for five days in a row?

Feeling that his speculation was very likely, Ling Hao shook his head and lamented the injustice of God, and then took out his mobile phone to open "All-Seeing Eye".

Forget it, everything in the world has nothing to do with me, and it's more practical to play games.

Entering the main interface of the game, the hang-up information of the 'chariot' pops up, which is all non-nutritious daily life, and most of them complain in their hearts that the 'world' has no conscience and should hang a street lamp.

In these five days, he asked Maria to deal with nearly 80% of the daily routines and emergencies by herself.

As for the remaining 20 percent, is it too difficult to solve it?

No, it's just that the simple character skill mechanism is not suitable, and the big sword reckless girl can't get by, so there is no expatriation.

During this period, Ling Hao was like a street lamp pendant, and he didn't put Maria into the 'Fountain of Healing' once.

Of course, he is not a smashing boss, but he still gives Miss 'Chariot' a little payment, otherwise the other party's prince and general Xiangning would have a kind of concern, and he would have begun to rebel and not obey orders.

The 'essence' points earned by completing each task were just enough for Ling Hao to draw thirty prizes.

With enough 500 points left for ten draws, he used the remaining 1,000 points to 'build' the card pool to bet on character equipment.

Then this time I was lucky, in addition to a bunch of more materials, that is, there was also a set of basic A-type constructs and a limited specialization.

Well, that reward is the unique weapon of the entire game's 'chariot', and this is the only one with a red-limited quality, which will not be repeated and pollute the card pool.

By the way, because the new build is the same as the one on Maria, it also unlocks a stacking feature that increases the power of the build by 20%.

In short, with these two rewards, it can be regarded as stabilizing the loyalty of the members, which is why Ling Hao tortured Maria so hard.

However, it is a pity that because the current rank of the holder is too low, in order to prevent the exclusive weapon from draining people instantly, he automatically put on several layers of protective seals to reduce a lot of strength.

At present, apart from the fact that the value is a little higher than that of the same level, and the fact that it remains 'indestructible', Ling Hao really can't see that this thing is a red quality limit.

After all, if you don't have it, don't say that you don't save one out of ten at this stage, and if you don't save one out of a hundred, it's a statement that you can't be lifted.

Click on the character panel, there is nothing to say about the main attributes or anything.

Loyalty is raised to 3, but the mood is still only 2, and it seems that it is indeed a bit too much.

Let this poor baby rest today, I'm not a demon.

Just as I was about to take a look at the quality of the exclusive weapon, a new and undeniable quest popped up on the interface.

Looking at the newly appeared main line-related tasks, Ling Hao withdrew what little mercy he had, and immediately dragged the 'Chariot' card into the battle ranks and prepared to start another mission.

I'm sorry Miss Maria, but now that there is a shortage of personnel, you should suffer a little longer, easy days will come soon, I promise with my conscience.
