Chapter 16: This Wave Is Really Big

After half an hour...

"Boss, it's all sorted out!"

Alfred stood up abruptly and shook his head.

The sweat from the hair and forehead swept out, drawing a crystal arc in the air.

Link took a quick step back, dodging the dripping sweat.

The Treasure Rat stretched out its little paw and made a gesture: 6.

The corpses of the five Mechanicum fanatics were cleansed, and they didn't even need to be re-examined by the Treasure Rat.

Ah Fu placed all the spoils neatly on the ground in different categories, and the lights were quite spectacular.

Squad machine guns, several pistols, robotic arms, exoskeleton armor, medical kits, logistics boxes, 3400 wasteland coins in cash, and... a box of ten BY sets.

Well, it's still taken apart.

A'Fu held up the box with the words '10 pack' and '001' and asked curiously, "Boss, what is this? The packaging looks like chewing gum."

hmmmm...

this,

How should Link explain?

"This thing is a rubber holster. Because the Gobi is windy and sandy, gravel and gravel are likely to fall into the barrel. With this rubber holster, the muzzle can be completely and tightly wrapped to prevent sand debris from falling into the gun. mouth, to play a protective role in prolonging the life of the firearm."

A'Fu suddenly realized, and hurriedly threw the golden 001 box into his backpack, while muttering: "This is a good thing, boss, you have a lot of guns, so you need to protect it well."

All right……

It doesn't sound like much of a problem.

"A'Fu, now help me turn over all five corpses."

Soon, Ah Fu turned the fanatic's body over.

Link stepped forward, found a moderately sized box from the loot on the ground, and then pulled out all the primary chips on the back of the heads and necks of the five fanatics.

This is the most valuable thing in the loot.

According to the underground black market price, each primary chip can be sold for at least 10,000 yuan.

There is no official public beta yet, players have not logged into the game, the primary chip market is tight, and the price will only be higher.

Put the five primary chips in a box and give it to Ah Fu. All medical supplies, food, pistols, and bullets are in the bag.

As for the squad machine guns, robotic arms, and exoskeleton armor, these things are too heavy to be removed.

Link is small and Afu is fat.

The exoskeleton armor built by the fanatics according to their own body shape does not have an adjustment function, and many joints are glued with tape and rags as patches, which smells like a wasteland!

The emptied backpack was filled to the brim again.

"I'll go to the tunnel to get something, A'Fu, wait here."

After solving the chasing enemy, Link is now free to go to the tunnel secret room to get the C-level quest left here.

It is now more than four in the morning. Although there are searchlights, there is still a strange atmosphere in the places where the light cannot shine.

"Boss, I'll go too!"

Ah Fu doesn't want to stay here alone, he always feels unsafe.

Link looked at Ah Fu's body shape and said, "Then I have to tell you in advance that the tunnel is a bit narrow. Come out and wait for me if you feel uncomfortable later."

Alfred responded immediately.

It is definitely safer to follow the boss than to be in the dark castle all around.

But soon...

Alfred knew he was wrong.

The tunnel was narrow and crowded, and he had to take a breath to move around. As long as the breath was let out, his belly would be stuck tightly against the wall, unable to move.

So after walking all the way, the tunnels of Whistling Castle were filled with the sound of Ah Fu's rapid breathing like a dog.

After squeezing out the last narrow passage, the whole person suddenly became enlightened as if they were liberated.

Link pushed open the wooden door at the end of the tunnel,

There is always a feeling that time and space are intertwined and overlapped.

Whistling Castle still plays a pivotal role in Link's gaming career.

I made money by brushing monsters here, and I also discovered the tunnel here. I got a C-level task, and I liked to mention a 'temporary celebrity experience card'.

The wooden door was unlocked, and the latch was opened, and inside was a small secret room of more than ten square meters.

Inside the secret room was an empty, dusty bookshelf and a plain wooden table.

Of course, these are not the point.

Link held the searchlight and walked to the bookshelf, picking up a pocket watch in the corner.

Open the lid of the gray-collected pocket watch, and above it is a gentleman in a suit.

The big back is meticulously combed, the bridge of the nose is upturned, and there is a pair of golden glasses on it, which looks gentle.

In the lower right corner of the photo, there is also a small line written in pen - gift to friend Moros.

[You triggered the E-level mission [Moros' Pocket Watch], accept/reject]

[Quest hint: A dusty pocket watch lost in the tunnel of Whistling Castle, find Moros and return the pocket watch to him. Wuthering Heights is the closest to Sand Capital, so maybe you can try your luck there. ]

[Task reward: 500 experience points, other rewards are dynamically assessed by NPC favorability]

There will definitely be people asking here.

Huh, that's not right!

What I said before was a C-level mission, why is it now an E-level mission?

I'm going to talk about it here. This [Moros' Pocket Watch] errand task can only be regarded as a prerequisite for a C-level task.

Only after receiving the quest and handing over the pocket watch to Moros will he receive a C-level battle royale quest. As long as he defeats the eight men in black who are chasing him, the C-level quest will be completed and he will be rewarded handsomely.

accept!

Seeing that he received the E-level mission again, Link had a feeling that time was passing by.

Going around in circles, he came back again.

Ah Fu looked at the boss holding a pocket watch and smirked. He had nothing to do, so he came to the wooden table.

It was very uncomfortable to be squeezed in the secret passage just now, so I sat down first and slowly.

He pulled out the chair and sat down.

Click!

The chair snapped.

Ah Fu squatted on the ground.

Rumble to the ground.

Ah Fu covered his butt with his hands, twisting his face and grinning in pain.

Link on the side felt the ground shake a few times, and couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, this chair has been in place for more than 40 years, and the internal structure has softened a long time ago. How can it support your weight."

A Fuqiang endured the pain, gritted his teeth and said word by word: "The boss... you haven't... told me... make it clear... see my joke."

"I didn't expect you to sit down directly!" Link said innocently while smiling.

Link put away his pocket watch and stretched out his hand to pull Afu up.

At this moment, the Treasure Rat suddenly rushed from the ground to Link's shoulder.

The next second, the ground made a crackling sound.

The searchlight was turned on, and with the bottom of Ah Fu's butt as the center, countless cracks began to appear in all directions.

OMAI GADER!

Ah Fu smashed the ground with his butt.

"Run!"

Linkti slipped up Fu's collar and took a step out.

The next second, a huge force pulled Link back.

Sorry, Ah Fu was too heavy to move, and Link was brought back by force again.

The whole house began to collapse, and Link and A'Fu fell along with them, falling down.

Link felt as if he had fallen on a ball of jelly, and his body was bounced up again. He quickly adjusted his posture and stumbled, and stabilized his body.

Look at Ah Fu lying on the pile of rubble, holding his body in his hands and whimpering.

After landing, he was pinched from front and back, causing pain on both sides.

Link looked up and saw that the secret room had completely collapsed, and there was a big hole above his head.

Link first pulled Afu up, and then shone around with a searchlight in surprise.

"Hey, why is there a space under the secret room?"

Link felt very strange that when he came six years ago, he didn't find this place at all.

If it wasn't for Ah Fu's insistence on sitting on a chair, he wouldn't collapse the ground, and he wouldn't have discovered this space.

When Link's searchlights were lit everywhere, he suddenly saw a horror, and he was speechless.

"Old...uuuuuu..."

A-Fu stood up from the ground rubbing his butt, and as soon as he opened his mouth to say a word, Link quickly covered his mouth with his eyes and hands.

"Shh!"

When the searchlight landed in front again, Ah Fu's eyes suddenly enlarged several times, and the eyeballs were about to fall out of fear.

"Boss...here...why is there an ant nest..."

Ah Fu's voice was trembling with tears, which scared the child to tears.

U1S1.

Link was also frightened.

A tree-shaped ant nest is like a pillar connecting the top to the ground.

The bottom of the ant nest is like a tree root, spreading in all directions.

The top part is spread out like a canopy to fit the top surface.

Only the middle part, probably... the thickness of Ah Fu's calf, connecting two sections.

Link clearly saw countless ants moving up and down the ant nest, densely packed.

If it were ordinary ants, Link and Ah Fu would not be so excited.

The ants in front of them are desert marching ants, also known as legion ants, which are the god of death in the desert.

Once dispatched, it must stretch for several miles. Whether it is sand scorpions, geckos, or wild animals and plants, they are all swallowed up on the road, leaving only bones and empty shells after leaving.

Link erected the searchlight, and then crept up to the wall with A'Fu. It took a lot of effort to support A'Fu up.

"Let me tell you, you really have to lose weight when you get to the city, and in order to support you, I will die!"

Link leaned against the wall and breathed heavily, and he didn't feel so tired when he played against the fanatic.

"Boss, come up quickly too!" Ah Fu said in a low voice while holding his throat, then stretched out an arm, ready to bring Linkla up.

Link took a deep breath and slowed down for a while, then went to the side to pick up the searchlight and prepare to leave.

Before leaving, Link took another look at the desert army ant's nest, suddenly stopped, and a bold idea flashed in his mind...

"Desert army ants are also biologically correct..."

It is not practical to go directly to the center of the ant nest. Link will try it at the place where the roots and branches spread to the outermost part of the ground.

Extend a finger, put it on the edge of the ant nest, and enter the [Synthesis] interface.

Left hand ant nest, right hand searchlight.

[Sorry, it is detected that your level is lower than the level of [Ant Nest Queen lv5] and cannot be synthesized]

Link's eyes flashed.

synthesis,

There is a play!

He's ready to play big.

P.S: It's time to play a big game, everyone recommends tickets to go!
