098. The eve of the party
As one of the biggest festivals in Ten-Central, even the gangsters who usually fight fiercely have begun to rein in, and the streets are hung with white paper lanterns and the sound of gunfire.
Qiong'anjing, the capital of the Tianhuan Kingdom, is a different scene, with armored vehicles and police forces set up almost every ten paces in the beautiful city, extremely heavily guarded, with drones and helicopters circling in the air.
In order to maintain the stability and order of the inner city of the capital, the Qiong'an Jing Metropolitan Police Department mobilized 20,000 police officers and mobilized 100,000 volunteers to be responsible for the environmental sanitation and service of the venue.
Li Aozi had already moved into the VIP room of the hotel two days ago, and enjoyed the hot springs and drinks, and at the same time, his players from the Fishman Guild also entered the venue in the name of volunteers.
For Li Aozi, Tianhuan is very good at service, and he does not dare to slack off at all - on the one hand, this is because Li Aozi assisted Gurant to become independent, which is in line with the interests of Tianhuan, and on the other hand, Li Aozi killed through the airspace alone on the Gulan battlefield, so that the frost-plated air force almost mutinied, which also fully demonstrated Li Aozi's strength.
For this kind of person who is not of the Gama rank, but whose destructive power is not weaker than that of the Gama rank, the attitude of the top management of Tianhuan is to contact and win over more, and not to alienate or provoke anger.
After all, maintaining the combat power of a Gama rank is an extremely expensive thing in itself, and the appearance of Li Oz is equivalent to telling them: 'I don't need you to support me, and it is more useful than your Gama rank.' ’
It's just that Li Aozi has been in and out of the Red Arrow Embassy more than once, and his identity documents and passports are all displayed, which makes the top management of Tianhuan quite sorry - he can't get it and don't dare to eliminate it.
For the abacus of the Tianhuan people, Li Aozi is too familiar, and the players in the previous life were not less pitted by the Tianhuan politicians, if it weren't for the fact that the monster farming and upgrading environment here is too good, there are really not so many people who want to stay in the Tianhuan.
After dinner, he stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows with a glass of sake and looked down from the 63rd floor to the entire night view of the city.
It should be said that this is the second capital of Shikoku that he has arrived in since he crossed over.
The neon alternates, overwhelming, the bustling fireworks hit the sky, the fire trees and silver flowers are rotten overnight, and the guests come and go, and the eyes are full of soft red, drunk and golden.
Li Oz drank the grinning sake and said:
"The show is about to begin."
At the other end of the Kyoto side, the players of the Fishman Guild were already dressed in volunteer work clothes and made it all the way to the main venue of the banquet: the Hojo Group Building.
As soon as the train arrived, the players of the Fishman Guild were immediately shocked by the magnificent buildings in front of them - the Hojo Building is 678 meters tall and covers an area of 1.2 hectares, which is an incomparably large architectural settlement, forming a majestic canopy like a towering tree in the air, and the various buildings and office areas are connected by pipes and floats, and can accommodate 130,000 people to work and live, and 2,200 drones in the air are involved in daily maintenance and cleaning operations.
And that's just the above-ground part, and its underground, which can reach a maximum depth of 2.8 kilometers, operates seven internal subways, including not only the most cutting-edge technology laboratories of the Hojo Group, but also a simulated town where professional security forces are trained, and they have almost dug a dungeon underground, connecting geothermal resources, with self-sufficient agricultural greenhouses and machine factories.
To put it more poignantly, even if you add up all the 200 years of GDP of Gurant, it is not enough to supply electricity to this building for a month.
"It's a spectacle...... "The Fishman Guild players smacked their tongues.
This is the gap between the four countries and the small countries, similar buildings, frost plating, Zhengxu, and Red Arrow can be built, and the resources to make these buildings, as long as they save a fraction of the money, can feed millions of people from the outside world.
Shikoku has no shortage of resources, and the Heavenly Ring has been rich in accumulation from a long period of external plunder, and the essence of the Kowloon Gathering is actually the ancient King of the Ring, inviting the daimyo and the samurai to sit together, divide the loot, and pray to the dragon for the gathering that can gain strength and luck.
The players don't care much about the old news, and as volunteers, they can easily enter the building, but how to find the hydrogen bomb called 'Hirosaki Arisa' has become a big problem.
"Hojo Heavy Industries, the pride of Tianhuan, since its establishment a hundred years ago, we have continuously sent a large number of talents to the society, the nation wants to be rich and strong, Hojo to help, the country to rise, Hojo to make every effort...... If you love Tianhuan, you have to choose the Hojo Group. ”
Along the way, the ears of the players are full of Hojo family flaunting themselves as patriotic enterprises, advocating the deeds and feats they have done for Tianhuan, and the players who listen to it are about to forget how Hojo wrote, someone wants to buy a bottle of water, and finds that the mineral water is also Hojo brand, go to the bathroom, the toilet is Hojo porcelain, and the security guards are suspicious of them, pointing at them with the weapons of the Hojo family, and questioning their purpose and identity...... Considering that the ventilation ducts inside were also built by the Hojo family's own company, they really realized that even the air was their own home.
Although the quality of the Hojo family is good, the monopoly has reached this point, which makes players still feel ashamed.
"President, we've been shopping around for a long time, and we haven't found any relevant clues."
Someone complained to the elders blindly:
"We're all down to the third basement now, and if we continue to walk like this, I don't think my brothers will be able to go until next month."
"What's the hurry? The progress of the task is still rising, so there's no hurry. ”
The old blind eye is also more certain about this matter:
"We're here to scout and step on the spot, not to grab the hydrogen bomb, understand? You look at the NPCs around you - look, it's that one with red lips and white teeth, two ponytails, and a JK Lori, yes, that's her. ”
"Wow, what white legs."
"Sister Bai, I'll let you see her level."
"Lv.25 [Warrior] - Farewell!"
The old blind man crossed his arms and pressed the volunteer's cap to hide the silver runes in his eyes, and the main reason why he maintained his attitude was because he clearly understood how deep the water was here.
The Hojo family, the oldest and most powerful clan in the Tenhuan, is said to have ancestors who were originally related to the Imperial Family, and when they industrialized, they naturally demanded the best resources such as mines. By now, the Hojo family is no longer just a family, and there are a large number of Tianhuan talents with different surnames who serve them and are hired to obtain remuneration and status.
In this place where the per capita alpha level, the players' small bodies that are less than lv10 are pitiful like a piece of paper, and whoever comes can poke them into a thousand holes.
There is no way to go on like this, after all, they always have to ask for directions, and they only rely on their own awakened [True Eye], and they can't see too far underground. Therefore, they had to focus on the suspected scientific researchers and the like, volunteering to help the tourists, and secretly paying attention to the white coat researchers hurrying through the pedestrian street.
However, the volunteer's identity soon showed its limitations, and as they descended to the fifteenth basement floor, a reformed security guard approached them with a grim face and warned them, "Get out of here, the place below is not for you to get close to!" ”
The player who was yelled at was not discouraged, but obediently left, but the number of people in the team changed from 24 to 23.
After a short while, an excited voice sounded in the guild's voice channel:
"Hey, hey, hey! Boss, I sneaked in stealth, it's worthy of an omega-level Ao Neng, this rent is really cost-effective! ”
The old blind man smiled: "Well done." ”
