Chapter 479: The Most Influential Man in Waste Saturn
"No?"
Link jumped up from the bed in an instant, speaking as fast as a cannonball: "The S energy center has been searched? The rest of the energy area has not been missed, right? Have everyone checked again and again? The bodies are also one-to-one correspondence, right? ?"
Li Ziqian was silent for a moment: "It's all verified, and there really isn't any. Now all the survivors and corpses have been gathered in Shadu, and the general can take a look."
"wait for me!"
Link immediately put on his clothes and rushed to Shenmu City.
After a night, Link slumped weakly on the sofa, pressing his temple with his right hand.
In one night, he had seen all the survivors and all the dead. The faces of more than 50,000 people were in his mind, making him feel unfamiliar to everyone now.
As Li Ziqian said, with so many people, he did not find Alia.
Li Ziqian on the side asked euphemistically, "General, could it be that you misread it at the time?"
Link did not rush to refute, and carefully recalled the scene at that time. He clearly saw Arya's face in the jar. In the 1.0 version of Saturn, there are not many NPCs who can leave a deep impression. Among them, Arya is the most influential and well-known. , he can never admit wrong.
"No, absolutely no mistake."
Li Ziqian took a deep breath, "If that's the case, then I will order people to conduct a carpet search in the mechanical city to see if there are any missing or unrecognizable bodies."
Link nodded, that's all there is to it now.
"That's hard work for you."
Link returned to Whistling Castle, took a short nap and woke up.
Arya's disappearance has been haunting him, making him sleepless.
Link wandered the corridor for a while, and finally knocked on John and Silverhand's room.
John opened the door and saw that Link was still a little stunned: "Why did you come so early, why did you come to take a look?"
Link's face was solemn, and when he walked into the room, he saw Silver Hand who was still in a drowsiness.
John shrugged helplessly: "I woke up two or three times in the middle of the night. In order to prevent him from waking up and making trouble at night, I just fainted."
Link was dumbfounded: "Aren't you afraid of breaking your brain?"
John poured two cups of coffee and handed it to Link: "If it's so easy to break, how can I do big things in the future. And I didn't faint as soon as I woke up, but I gave him two or three seconds to recover, so Adding it up a few times, he is still a little bit clear about the current situation."
Link took a sip of coffee, feeling much better, and couldn't help showing his thumb: "ruthless or you, even 'self' is not spared."
Linkla returned to the topic and said with a serious face: "Remember what I said last time about meeting Arya in the mechanical city? Yesterday, Li Ziqian dug up all the survivors and corpses of the mechanical city overnight, but found nothing. Arya. I went to Shenmu City overnight to compare them one by one, but I found nothing."
John's brows knitted together. He had no doubt that Link was wrong. After all, it was Arya, and anyone who could identify the waste Saturn would not be wrong.
But it's a little weird to disappear so bizarrely.
"Could it be that the follow-up mechanical pioneers also recognized Arya and then transferred her to other departments for research?" John proposed his own idea.
"It is indeed possible. Today, Li Ziqian will lead the team to conduct another carpet search, and there may be new gains."
After Link finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment and then asked back: "What if there is still nothing after the search? I have a strong hunch that the things behind this may not be so simple.
"
John's face also showed a solemn expression: "You mean, this matter may have something to do with Arya's background?"
"I'm just guessing too, but this time I have a strong hunch."
In the previous life, Arya's life experience was a mystery, and some idle players also tried to dig out the background story, but like the NPCs of the waste Saturn, they would lose the target every time they chased. Even after the player entered the 2.0 or even 3.0 version and the level increased, he found that it was still the same when he came back.
Over time, people had to regard Arya as a simple NPC who gave players buffs, without any background and plot.
Link thought so at first, so he was so surprised when he saw Arya in a container in Mechanic City. Obviously, this NPC, who is regarded by everyone as a simple buff issuing machine, has a deep story behind it that can be excavated.
"By the way, you've been busy all night, so you probably haven't read today's newspaper, now~" Before Link left, John handed over a fresh newspaper today.
Link walked out of the room and read the content of today's "Waste Saturn Morning News".
In one night, the news that Sandu had toppled the Mechanicus spread throughout the Free Federation, and even many forces also got the news.
The newspaper wrote that Xu Tianzhao, the leader of Longcheng, and Augustine, the head of the Faye, highly praised Link. Sandu eliminated the Mechanicus, maintained justice, defended territorial integrity, and made outstanding contributions to the stability of the Southwest of the Free Federation. Even the head of the French night, Augustine, said that this victory marked the beginning of the Free Federation's battle against evil forces from defense to offense.
This is the content of the first edition, and the second edition is the editorial of the "Waste Saturn Morning Post". In addition to the high evaluation, there is also a photo of the mechanical city breaking into ruins. The picture is extremely shocking.
As one of the sects with huge influence on the waste Saturn, the Mechanicum sect has won the support of many fans once its immortality theory of "mechanical immortality" was published, and believers spread all over the waste Saturn. At the same time, because of its obsession with mechanical technology, it also has the highest mechanical technology of all waste Saturn.
Twenty years ago, the Free Federation used the power of the entire Federation to push back the menacing Mechanicus, and struggled to maintain peace for twenty years. Now, Link has only been in power for less than half a year, and he has pushed the Mechanicus, showing unparalleled dominance, injecting a clear stream into the Free Federation, which is struggling to resist threats.
At the same time, this victory also established the power of Monster Security Company's pets, and the effect on the battlefield even exceeded that of regular troops. Whether it is the entanglement control of the psychedelic vine, the instant killing ability of the invisible killer bee on low-level enemies, or the last classic wolf cavalry charge and tear formation, they all play an unparalleled effect, even better than a sharp knife with top equipment and high quality. The effect of the team is even stronger.
This made Longcheng and Faye overjoyed again, and determined the right choice to spend huge sums of money to introduce Steppenwolf.
At the same time, the news that Monster Security Company went out of Shadu and went to Longcheng and Faye to open "branch stores" was also "accidentally leaked" by Poney. I heard that there are more pet styles to choose from, and there are many in demand for a while. The powerful and famous are eager to buy it, waiting for the completion of the monster security company.
Penny's propaganda method, combined with the overwhelming spread of official newspapers and trail newspapers, brought Link's influence on the waste Saturn to a higher level in just one day.
If it is said that Link climbed from a slave to the position of the supreme commander of Sandu in just half a year, it can be called a legendary experience. Then, under his leadership, within half a year, Shadu would accumulate strength to eradicate the Mechanicism in one fell swoop. This is proof of his ability.
The rise of Link has already begun to change the original pattern of the waste Saturn, and this change is still deepening...
[Congratulations, you have gained 1 influence point of the waste Saturn, and the existing influence is 12 points]
At 12 points of influence, among the many power leaders and celebrities in the waste Saturn, he has surpassed Xu Tianzhao, the Lord of the Dragon City, and Augustine, the head of the Faye, and became the most influential man on the waste Saturn. At this time, Link's inadvertent words will become the focus of discussion by others. A compliment will be regarded as a glory by the listeners, and his views on things will be regarded as a standard.
And now there is only one person left in the whole wasteland who has more influence than Link, and that is the wasteland singer Alia.
"If you solve the Mechanic Sect, your influence will reach 12 points. If you eliminate other forces, your influence will soon reach 15 points. When you have the same level of influence as Arya, the entire waste Saturn will press my will."
Late at night, Link's phone rang.
When he saw the name of the incoming call [Li Ziqian], Link was ready.
"General, I organized Teco and Fox Hunting Special Forces and professional search and rescue personnel to conduct a carpet investigation of the mechanical city, but still did not find Alia. I entrusted Dr. Ludwig and Helen, and now I hope to learn from the experiment. Find clues in the district database."
Link seems to have thought of this result, but he is not much disappointed when he hears this.
"Okay, you've worked hard these days, take a good rest."
After Link hung up the phone, a task prompt suddenly appeared in the system.
[You triggered the B-level quest [The Mystery of the Diva], accept/reject]
[Task reminder: You found out that the wasteland singer Alia disappeared from the mechanical city strangely, and you have a premonition that there are secrets hidden in it, which may be related to her life experience...]
[Quest Reward: Unknown]
"It's still a B-level task, the reward is unknown, it's a bit interesting."
Link simply accepted the task. According to his knowledge, no one should have been given this task in the previous life, because everyone finally regarded Arya as a planetary welfare messenger and a buff issuing machine. Even until the subsequent version, Arya has been singing on Waste Saturn, providing buffs and conveniences for countless new players.
And this time, Link got the task of solving the puzzle, hoping to uncover the phantom and veil of Arya.
After two days of fermentation in the forum, players also came out of the "shadow" of blood loss. Protesting with the game company, the game company has only one sentence: "All behaviors in the game are controlled by the brain, and the distribution of task rewards will not go wrong." Finally, the game company couldn't bear the trouble and released the contribution file in the system, and the player suddenly realized.
Dare to love this task is still an NPC. Link, who forced one person to swallow 14 million experience, is really a beer.
The remaining scattered NPCs eat 10%, and finally all players share 10%.
When the contribution file was released, all players were silent.
"It's outrageous, what does an NPC need experience for, is it possible that he will really upgrade according to the experience needs?"
"Link has eaten 14 million experience in this wave, so he should be level 60. Who can see what level Link is now?"
"Don't guess. When he was ordinary and elite, he liked to ignore it. Now he is the leader. From the beginning of more than 30 levels, it has become a string of question marks. The ghost knows how awesome Link is now."
"You don't need to say more to whoever will flatter you in the future. jpg."
The players went from indignation to relief and ridicule.
However, this also reminded the players, who would have thought that a task would have to pay attention to the text traps inside.
This wave was purely "induced consumption", and Link went crazy.
This mission also gave players a long memory, don't see the mission reward and your eyes will glow, maybe there is a hole in it~
Players quickly pulled away from the quest, and after the big event ended, they continued to invest in the dungeon.
There are also players with a keen sense of smell, who have begun to set their sights on the Wasteland Gang at the far end of the desert.
With the destruction of the Mechanic Sect, only the Wasteland Gang, which can hardly be supported by a single tree, is left in the southern desert. The next focus will definitely be on the Wasteland Gang. If you can get some intelligence or news in advance, maybe you can become the second bomber chicken, fly to the branches and become a phoenix, and become a big wet brother.
Shadu also ushered in a short period of peaceful development, with stable and rapid development of various industries.
The first is the satellite controlled by Troy. This unique satellite brings great convenience to Shadu. Although it can only be used for one-third of the day, under the coordination of Troy, whether it is military detection or commercial use Civilians have achieved good results.
Secondly, in terms of business and trade, the large desert occupied by the Mechanicum has been recovered, and some resources in the desert have been developed, such as the Red Dragon’s Back, or some other resource projects being developed by the Mechanic, which will be directly taken over under the arrangement of Poney. .
Finally, in terms of population, more than 40,000 residents were absorbed at once. After the review and registration, Link let them live according to their wishes.
Many of the original residents of Shadu chose to return to Shadu to find relatives.
Anna simply organized several episodes of the "Go Home" column, which was a great success. The twists and turns of the visit and the touching plot set off a TV viewing frenzy and earned enough tears from the residents of Shadu. There are even many young gamers who watch in front of the TV every Tuesday and Friday night.
There are also some unrelated and unreasonable residents who simply settled in Shenmu City. There are many different people here, and there are many opportunities to find jobs every day.
Some brave survivors simply joined the official engineering team of Shadu and went north to the death quagmire to build a transfer station, or went south to the ruins of the mechanical city to help rebuild the mechanical city.
Link was also enjoying himself during this time, and his subordinates were busy. He simply trained Silver Hand with John in Whistling Castle.
Although the silver hand only has one arm, it is a legendary level after all.
And a few days later, this guy's one-armed posture has changed from inferior to superior. He has practiced the skill of one-handed force, and is a fierce yuppie. Link once thought that this guy was possessed by Yang Guo.
P.S: There was an error in the calculation of the experience value in the previous chapter. Wanjun forgot to calculate the 100% increase in the knowledge altar blessing. It has now been revised. Link's total experience is 49.58 million. Thank you [Justin Timberlake] for pointing out, thank you~
Thanks to Justin Timberlake for the 100 starting coin reward, the book friend 20201222135117685's 100 starting coin reward, the confused 100 starting coin reward, and the fleeting 100 starting coin reward
