Starting From Zero

Chapter 138 The Last Profit

Because the damage caused by the big explosion on our side was too serious, the Russian player's underwater city itself was already severely damaged, so when we started to run away, the Frozen Banshee's original plan to pursue us also failed. It had to be abandoned because the inner structure of the city collapsed.

I don't feel too excited about successfully escaping the pursuit of Russian players, because this is not something to be particularly happy about, because even if the Frozen Banshees really catch up, it will only delay our evacuation time. Besides, it actually doesn't have much practical significance. Everything in my hand has been put into the Phoenix Dragon Space or the Earth Gate. Neither of them will dump items out because of me, so it is actually impossible to recover the lost items. Besides, based on the combat effectiveness of our group, although there is huge pressure when facing these Russian players, if it is just self-protection, it is not really a big deal at all, and we can handle it easily.

Under such circumstances, we can say that we are not worried at all that Russian players will catch up. Of course, it's actually a good thing for us that no one is following us.

"Are we running away now? Why do I feel that the direction is not right?" While running after me, Ichiro Tsunoda asked me where I was going, because he found that this route did not seem to be the direction away from here.

I didn't answer Ichiro Tsunoda's question, but Mahong answered for me: "Of course I'm going to get something."

"What are you doing?" Ichiro Tsunoda seemed to have no reaction for a moment.

Masamoto Matsumoto looked at where Ichiro Tsunoda was and asked us stupidly, then reminded us: "You didn't pay attention to that information before, right?"

"Information? What information?" Ichiro Tsunoda asked stupidly.

"You really didn't see it!" Yingyu Shenchu ​​said suddenly: "In addition to being a research base, this mobile underwater city also has a set of small production facilities for verifying test results."

"Oh, it turns out we are going to rob the production facilities!" Ichiro Tsunoda said with a sudden realization.

Masamoto Matsumoto, who couldn't stand it, couldn't help but said: "We're not going to grab the production facilities! If it were us, it might be useful to grab a production line back, but the technology of the Frost Rose Alliance is there, and they want the production line. What are you doing? Besides, I told you that this is a research base and everything is just researched. How can there be a dedicated production line? "

"Then you're talking about production facilities."

"The production facilities used in laboratories are a special production method and a collection of supporting hand tools. Although they are also considered production facilities, they are actually just a very special handicraft workshop, which is different from a real industrial facility. ." I explained directly: "The important thing in that kind of facility is the technical staff rather than the equipment, because the equipment in this kind of facility is actually very simple. After all, it relies on manual processing by skilled workers, so there is no reliance on the equipment. The performance is not high. Besides, this facility itself cannot provide any reverse engineering research value, so it is useless to snatch it. Our target this time is the things processed by this workshop. Since they have this kind of production facility here, Then there must be some finished products, and most of the things that go back to make finished products for verification are things that have passed theoretical tests. Even if there are still problems, they have made a big step forward compared to those imaginary drawings and so on. So I plan to bring all these things back so that we can study them against the stolen technical information.”

"Oh, now I understand."

"Hey, hey, hey. Speaking of technological achievements, we also want to be targeted by the Russians' technological achievements." Zhenhong suddenly reminded us.

When I heard what Zhenhong said, I looked back, and I happened to see a group of steel monsters charging towards us on the passage behind. They were even faster than us, and they were about to catch up. .

"Damn it. Isn't this thing too fast?" Masamoto Matsumoto couldn't help but said when he saw the monsters rushing up from behind.

Everyone else looked back after hearing our words, and found that the thing chasing them seemed to be the armor-clad monster they had encountered on the ceiling of the research data storage room before.

At first, I really thought these were the same kind of items worn by that kind of monster, but when those things got closer, I realized that there seemed to be some differences between them.

These monsters chasing us all seem to have two things in common. One is that they have external steel armor on their bodies, and the other is that the red muscle tissue is directly exposed, and no skin tissue is visible.

From these two common points, it can be seen that these creatures should all be of the same type. But their differences were quite large before, so I can't be sure whether this is individual differences or different types of biological weapons. However, at least the current situation of this kind of thing is still similar.

These things run very fast. No matter what posture they use to run, the speed will be very exaggerated. At first, they are far away and I didn’t even notice. When the other party chased us near us, I discovered that these things could even climb the wall. After they caught up with us, they immediately began to jump up the side walls of the passage and chase us along the side walls or hanging upside down from the ceiling. Moreover, this strange way of moving was even faster than on the ground. It was obviously These guys are more comfortable running upside down.

Although we don’t know why these creatures can run so fast, these things have indeed surrounded us now, although the front is not sealed yet. But as long as the two monsters on my side rush in front of me and block my path, the monsters behind me can close the encirclement circle and completely surround us, and this situation means that I can't slow down at all, because as soon as I slow down, I will It was like he had trapped all of us in a circle.

Although I also know that if I slow down in this case, I will be surrounded, but now I have no choice whether to slow down in this situation, because the front is already the production area.

According to the original setting, this production area is divided into four parts: raw material storage area, processing and production area, experimental area, and storage area.

The specific division of labor can be determined from the names of these four parts, so we can directly remove the goal of the experimental area. The remaining three areas are the positions we need to seize, and the most valuable among these three areas is not the storage area, but the processing area.

The processing area is the so-called production workshop, but it is slightly different from what we told Ichiro Tsunoda before. This place is not without value, but very valuable. Those special skilled workers. Of course, in the game, NPCs play the role. After all, players rarely have life occupations that can be practiced to this level. Being able to produce the most cutting-edge weapons with bare hands in a place like this is beyond the capabilities of ordinary level skills. So, all those processing personnel who appear here. At least they all have master-level processing technology, so these people are not only valuable, but it is not an exaggeration to say that they are priceless.

In addition to this processing workshop, the remaining parts are the raw material storage area and the warehousing area. These two places are equally important, but neither of them is the kind of facility that needs to be evacuated.

Although in a sense, the things in these two areas are quite valuable, our mission here this time is to snatch the technical achievements of Russian players, not to engage in a three-guang policy here. We are able to fight here because Essinger Mobile Fortress and the Chaos and Order Protoss, including the Japanese players and Chinese players who cooperated with us, fought hard to kill the enemy on the main battlefield. This opportunity is very precious, and for our actions here, huge casualties and losses will occur every minute and every second outside. Therefore, we cannot waste time here. Tasks must be completed quickly.

Because of this, every second we spend here has a time cost, so many things that seem valuable to us should actually be the kind of things that are not worth taking, because of the cost of moving those things. The time cost is higher than the value of the item itself. In this case, the more we take, the more we will lose money.

In this state of time is money. It is obviously inappropriate to sweep the three areas one by one, and Russian players are not stupid. We attacked the technical information area before because it was particularly important, so all the Russian defense forces were concentrated there, but if we were here If the sides still come one by one. The other party will definitely take some countermeasures, and with their previous experience, they will most likely choose a stone-destroying approach to prevent us from getting those things. This situation forces us to complete all the powerful multi-missions in a short period of time, and we cannot let the Russian players react, because if they react, we can't expect anything.

"Attention everyone. Prepare to separate." I said after looking at the surrounding situation: "Matsumoto is congratulating you for taking Ichiro Tsunoda and August Kaoru to the raw material warehouse. Sakura Rain Godina, Blazing Dragon Princess, Christina, and Ma Hong , you four go to the finished product area, Jin Coin and Bingbing follow me to the production area."

"Understood." The crowd immediately dispersed after a loud promise, and the monsters following us immediately divided into several teams and chased in different directions.

There are only four monsters following our group, but the problem is that Bingbing is not the main combat type, and the fighting method of gold coins is subject to certain restrictions here, so in fact, I am the only one who can really exert full combat power. Fortunately, even if I am alone, my fighting ability is not bad.

"You two go grab someone, I'll stop you from here."

After rushing to the production workshop over there, I shouted to assign the task, then turned around and blocked the entrance of the passage.

After all, this underwater city is fully sealed, so the internal space is not very spacious, and the structure is similar to a large ship. Those areas where items are produced and stored require a particularly large space, so special large rooms have been built, but other areas are not so spacious. Like this place where I stopped. The reason why I'm stuck here is because this place is narrow enough, and it's just such a road. As long as I don't get out of the way, the other party can't hope to catch up with the gold coins and Bingbing in front of them unless they walk over my body. . As for if you really want to defeat me through this place... just think about it, but don't expect too much.

The four monsters over there also stopped after seeing me stop, and they seemed to be quite ferocious. One of them looked a bit like a fusion of a dinosaur and a bear, and even drooled. .

Although the shapes of the four creatures in front of me are steel armor and red muscle tissue, their body structures are quite different. One of the monsters is, as I just said, a perfect combination of a bear and a dinosaur. The guy's head looks like a dinosaur, but it's not a Tyrannosaurus but a Spinosaurus. As for the body, it's almost like a bear except that it has no hair, and it's covered in steel armor everywhere. At first glance, you can tell that it is particularly difficult to deal with.

One of the remaining three was a creature that looked like a large lizard that walked upright. This thing walks upright on its hind limbs, and its forelimbs are probably turned into special weapons. The claws on it are quite exaggerated, and there are horn-like things on both sides of this thing's head. It's just that this guy's horns are not backwards but forwards.

The shape of the third monster is very similar to the second one, but it is on all fours, and its tail is obviously very mutated, with a large pincer growing on it, which seems to be an attack weapon.

The last monster is the smallest among the four creatures, but its body structure is the most consistent with the natural characteristics of the creature. The strong and perfect body structure gives people the look of a bodybuilder. Of course, the shape of this thing is not humanoid but animal-shaped, and its body structure is similar to that of a canine creature, except that it is very large and very strong. It's just not as exaggerated as the guy with the body of a bear.

The four creatures started roaring and demonstrating at me after I stopped, but this situation only lasted for less than five seconds and ended because their obviously high intelligence had discovered that the gold coins and Bingbing left first. Under such circumstances, they naturally didn't want to be blocked by me anymore, so they charged forward directly, led by the upright-walking monster with horns on its head.

Facing this charging monster, I planned to use a quick sword to cut through the mess. Use powerful skills to kill one first, because there are four enemies here, and I am in a state where I have no summoned creatures to use, so I don't want there to be too many enemies. However, before I really started taking action, something suddenly went wrong outside. Just when the first monster was about to enter my attack range, suddenly the entire underwater city suddenly tilted sideways. The monsters who lost their center of gravity all hit the side wall. Even I almost fell down because the city suddenly tilted. Fortunately, my balance was pretty good and I jumped directly onto the side wall without being hit. fall.

The tilt did not continue forever, and the city that had just tilted quickly regained its balance. But now the city is full of people. The attack just now caused a lot of trouble for the people here.

I was still wondering what happened when I suddenly heard the city radio ringing. A female voice broadcast in Russian: "Attention to all personnel, this city has been attacked by an external attack. Currently, there are many damages to the city's mobile devices. Violent shaking and loss of balance may occur in the future. Please be prepared for the response."

"External attack?" Even I was stunned when I suddenly heard such a notification.

The Russian city was attacked from outside, but this attack was not arranged by us. That is to say, a third party, no, it should be a fourth party, participated in the attack. but. I think this third party is probably someone from Gunslinger, because they obviously came to snatch technical information before, but we later messed with it. From what I know about the Gunslinger guy, he is not a person who gives up easily, so they must have used some method to find this underwater city, and then brought people to take revenge.

Their purpose may not be to seize technology, but to completely sink the city, thereby destroying our robbery plan.

In fact, if you think about it from another angle, it is not difficult to understand the similarity between the gun gods.

The gun god's idea is actually very simple. The Russians have technology, and the Americans have their own, and our Frost Rose Alliance also has our own technology. As for Japan... the Americans have never taken them seriously.

However, if this operation succeeds, we will obtain Russian technology, making both the Frost Rose Alliance and the Japanese stronger. Although Japan has become stronger, it is not a big problem for the Americans because they are confident that they can defeat the Japanese. However, if our Frost Rose Alliance obtains Russian technology, it will obviously be a very dangerous situation for them, the Americans. This will further widen the technical gap between the two of us, and the Gunslinger will become even less confident when facing us.

Because of this, the Gunslinger's idea is very simple. Since fair competition can no longer defeat us, let's just use some means to destroy this city directly, so that everyone will have no skills, and then the situation will return to the previous state. Although it will not be higher, it will be better. Not worse.

If the gun god wants to destroy this underwater mobile city, he naturally doesn't need to enter it. So they simply used special underwater combat weapons to launch an attack outside the underwater mobile city, and they thought well. The first target of the attack turned out to be the mobile devices of the underwater mobile city, which were those large Long legs.

Although the long legs of this underwater mobile city look slender and slender. But the reason why this thing looks thin is because it is too long. If you really want to talk about it, the legs of this guy are super substances made of pure high-grade metal and magical inscriptions. The hardness of these things is enough to ensure that they can withstand the gravity of the underwater mobile city and the torsion of propulsion. The latter, as the main driving force for urban propulsion, has to bear a very huge torsion during the movement, so in fact these The diameter of each long leg is more than seven meters.

More than seven meters of solid metal and protected by a magic circle, the hardness of this thing is actually quite exaggerated. But it is a pity that the weapons used by the Americans are not ordinary goods. It is a liquefied magic crystal steam weapon. The explosive power of these things can be doubled underwater, and the consequence of a direct hit at close range is not to directly break these long legs, but to distort them. In addition, these long legs themselves need to bear a certain amount of torque, so once the long legs are attacked, when they start to drive the underwater mobile city forward, the huge torque output by themselves will cause problems with the long legs. Broken legs. This is like if a person has a bone fracture. If you do not pay attention to self-cultivation and then perform high-intensity exercise, the bone crack will directly turn into a fracture. Therefore, the Americans only blew up the long legs of these underwater mobile cities with bone fractures. What really broke them was actually caused by the Russian players' own driving equipment.

Although several legs were broken by the bombing, fortunately, the Russian underwater mobile city had many legs. Even if some were broken by the bombing, the impact would not be great. in addition. This underwater mobile city itself relies on buoyancy to levitate, and the pressure it puts on the legs is actually not great. Even without support, it should theoretically be able to hover in a stable state in the water. The reason why there was a serious tilt just now was not because the city itself was tilted, but because the force output by the long legs was uneven when the city moved forward underwater after the long legs were not blown off. As a result, he pushed himself sideways.

Of course, Russia doesn't have a good way to deal with this situation, but even if they have a way to deal with the troublesome Americans, they probably won't be able to fight with all their strength. After all, we are still here.

Although I'm not sure whether the specific thoughts of Americans are what I think, but now that this situation has happened, I can just take advantage of it. Taking advantage of the opportunity when those monsters lost their balance due to the slope of the ground, I struck decisively. Then I easily killed one of the monsters, and when I was about to come for the second time, the surrounding walls were suddenly cut into two sections by a section of steel bars that rushed in from the side. The monsters couldn't rush over, and I couldn't get through at all.

Anyway, I didn't intend to fight these monsters to the end. Since they couldn't get through, I stopped caring about the situation over there and went straight after the gold coins and Bingbing.

The efficiency of Gold Coin and Bingbing was quite good. When I arrived here, what I saw was corpses all over the ground and a row of NPCs who were obviously living and working in the corner and were sleeping so hard that they were sweating.

After seeing me appear, the gold coin pointed directly at the sleeping NPCs over there and said: "A few ran away, and some were killed by their own people, and the rest are here."

I nodded and said nothing nonsense, threw all these people into the gate of the earth, and then called for gold coins and Bingbing to rush to reinforce other places.

Besides, Matsumoto Masaga and Tsunoda Ichiro, although their task is to collect raw materials, not all the things in the raw material warehouse need to be taken. And unlike the tasks of the other team and our team, their team has a certain advantage, that is, the raw materials are indestructible.

The skilled workers we want to rob can be killed, and the finished technological achievements that Christina and the others rob can be destroyed, but the raw materials cannot be destroyed. Only a few of these metal ores or various strange materials can be destroyed, but most of them are difficult to destroy. Although they can change the shape or even form of these things, the characteristic of raw materials is that they only provide certain attributes. As long as this attribute does not disappear, it does not matter even if the shape or appearance changes.

Although Matsumoto Masaga and Tsunoda Ichiro were assigned simpler tasks, Russia did not intend to give them these things in vain, but the guard over there did embody the characteristics of a fighting nation. That cruelty is really speechless. After discovering that Masa Matsumoto and Ichiro Tsunoda were much more powerful than their own, and that the underwater mobile city was indeed running out of time for internal and external troubles, these guys actually turned on a special switch, and before Masa Matsumoto could When He and Ichiro Tsunoda realized what was going on, they discovered that a row of sixteen circular pipe openings suddenly opened at the four corners of the warehouse. Immediately after the pipe opening was opened, a large amount of seawater began to pour into the warehouse. Matsumoto Masahiro congratulated them that the water under their feet was no more than a moment's notice.

"Asshole, are all these Russians crazy?" Ichiro Tsunoda looked at the water inlet in front of him, which was like a waterfall, and he almost cursed.

Masamoto Matsumoto had no time to comfort him now, so he reminded him directly: "Hurry up and pack your things. Take as much as you can take away. Be careful not to take the wrong ones, pick the most valuable ones first."

Originally, Ichiro Tsunoda and Masamoto Matsumoto were not suitable for this kind of work because they were Japanese and did not have our phoenix dragons as storage space, so the number of things they carried would not be too large. However, because we knew Matsumoto in advance Neither Masaga nor Ichiro Tsunoda have enough storage space. Therefore, Fenglong was temporarily arranged to accompany them. These phoenix dragons were temporarily lent to them and needed to be returned after the mission was completed.

Of course, Matsumoto Masaga and August Kaoru actually have Phoenix Dragons in their hands, but it’s just not convenient for Tsunoda Ichiro to know at this time, so they didn’t show them out, but let us pretend to make up and give them to each of them. Sent one.

With Masamoto Matsumoto's reminder, Ichiro Tsunoda moved quite quickly. It's a pity that August Xun can't join the porter's task, because she still needs to continue to block the Russian players behind. Those Russian players did not give up here just because the water inlet valve was opened. They were still fighting, but because the masters had been called away by the Frozen Banshee before, there were not enough manpower here to stop the wolf-like intruders. , I could only watch helplessly as the things were emptied bit by bit.

Although Matsumoto Masaga and Tsunoda Ichiro's work efficiency is pretty good. But unfortunately, the drainage outlets designed by the Russians were so fast that they were forced to abandon this place after taking away less than one-tenth of the materials stored in the warehouse.

Compared with the two teams in front of us, the mission of the last pair of people was obviously much smoother. Christina led the team not only to get a lot of practical things, but also packaged some NPC technicians who were accidentally discovered there.

Finally, when the three groups of us gathered together according to the instructions, half of our location was already submerged in the water. Looking at the waist-deep water, I could only lead everyone away quickly. This underwater mobile city is obviously about to end. The American attack not only destroyed many of the long legs used for propulsion, but also opened several large holes in this thing. The internal support structure had already been damaged due to our previous battle. This time, several large holes were blown out. In addition, the warehouse had just actively released water to flood the warehouse, which directly caused this huge underwater mobile city to begin to sink at a speed many times faster than normal.

Considering that there is a battle going on outside this underwater city, this thing may be paralyzed at any time, so there is no need to consider the place below the city where we enter. That kind of place will most likely be suppressed in the end. There is definitely no way out, so we need to move up.

Originally, there were no elevator-like equipment in this underwater mobile city, but now because the underwater mobile city has been severely destroyed, these facilities have basically been paralyzed. The only stairs we can take, but all stairs are now retreat passages, so there are a lot of Russian players inside. As a result, these people started to attack as soon as they saw us, so we had to fight with these guys. got up. Fortunately, these people we met were all ordinary players in this city, and some of them were not even combat players, so there was almost no hindrance to us.

Relying on our high strength, we rushed to the upper structure of this underwater mobile city many times faster than the Russian players who were familiar with the roads. However, when we got here, we discovered that this place was actually not much better than the one below.

Our location is at the top of this huge underwater mobile city, but instead of a small cabin, this is a huge direct deck. It can be determined from the structure of this thing that this place is probably expandable on the sea. As long as the top cover is opened, this place can be turned into a landing platform.

However, because of this huge direct access to the deck, this upper area has now almost become a huge pool, because there are several big holes just above our heads, and seawater is pouring in here at a crazy speed.

"Boss, the water pressure in those places is too high. I'm afraid we can't get out, right?" Zhenhong asked, looking at the big hole where seawater was pouring in crazily.
