Chapter 606: Hao Yi and the extraordinary organizations (please vote for the big chapter)
The huge old-fashioned car suddenly burst out from the side of the void and passed by the small dining table in the restaurant.
The strong wind brought by the moving vehicle blew up the white tablecloth, and the surrounding tables and chairs also trembled violently as the heavy vehicle passed by.
This was the first time Li Cheng saw the Velora.
Seeing this car hurtling out of the void in real life was a completely different feeling than seeing it in reports and videos.
That kind of huge mechanical monster appeared directly from the void and filled the entire vast space. The shock to people was no different from that of a primitive tribesman who saw a heavy mechanical tank rushing towards him.
The beauty of the mechanical behemoth built by humans is cleverly combined with the mystery of the incomprehensible supernatural power, full of beauty that shakes cognition.
Li Cheng watched as this terrifying mechanical monster rushed out in front of him, and then plunged into the void not far ahead without stopping.
Soon, this long and narrow train passed several carriages in front of him, until it reached a rear carriage full of picture windows.
A young man wearing brown short-sleeves and black-rimmed glasses was sitting in front of a seat in the rear compartment, looking out at the restaurant through the viewing window.
The Velora slowly stopped.
Most of the car was submerged in the pitch-black void, and only the rear compartment with tables and chairs remained inside the restaurant.
Li Cheng stared at the young man sitting in the car. The young man moved his eyes to look at him and showed a smile.
Card——bang——
With a simple and bright sound, the door of the rear compartment suddenly opened, seeming to issue an invitation to the guests outside.
"That car is a B-class extraordinary item. It is very dangerous. You cannot get in easily. If you get in, you may not be able to get out."
Liu Zhengyun's voice sounded in the earphone of Li Cheng's other ear.
"fine."
Li Cheng smiled, stood up slowly, and walked towards the open door of the carriage.
His feet stepped on the steps leading into the door and onto the floor of the carriage.
Card--
Immediately afterwards, the compartment door suddenly closed, the entire train started to move instantly, and the surrounding light dimmed in an instant.
The car seemed to have entered some kind of dark 'tunnel'.
In this silent darkness, Li Cheng felt the ground beneath his feet squirm.
There seemed to be some kind of twisted, sticky sound entangled on the roof of the car overhead.
At this moment, this car no longer looks like a steel creation, but more like a living 'life'.
boom--
It seemed like someone had turned on a switch, and a faint light illuminated the entire carriage.
"Sorry, there are no lights in this carriage."
A human-shaped shadow was outlined in front of Li Cheng's eyes, and the flickering light shone on the figure's seemingly ordinary cheek.
Li Cheng lowered his head and found that the figure was holding an old-fashioned lantern in his hand. Where the lantern shined, the floor was still hard and the roof of the car was still solid.
Steel is still steel, as if everything Li Cheng felt and heard just now was an illusion.
But in the dark shadow, where the light couldn't shine, Li Cheng could still hear the sticky sound, as if the limbs were squirming.
"Li Cheng."
Li Cheng returned his gaze to the face of the person in front of him and introduced himself with a smile.
"Hao Yi."
He Ao held the lantern, turned his head, and walked forward along the corridor between the dining tables on both sides.
Dim yellow lights illuminated the surrounding dark glass.
"This lamp of yours seems to be quite old."
Li Cheng's eyes glanced at the lantern in He Ao's hand. Through the frosted glass, he saw the flickering flame inside. It seemed to be an old kerosene lamp. "Is this a prop that comes with this car?
"
"No, I bought it from a store selling fake antiques. It looked suitable to me, so I bought it."
He Ao reached out and placed the lantern on the table where he had just been sitting. The flickering firelight cast a dull shadow on his cheek.
"What was that switch sound just now?"
Li Cheng looked at He Ao curiously, "Isn't it a start switch?"
"lighter."
He Ao placed the lighter he was holding on the table and pressed it lightly. With a slight sound, a faint flame burned.
Li Cheng glanced at the lighter, then at the slowly burning flame in the lantern, and blinked.
"Want something to drink?"
The two cups with cups, saucers and spoons that He Ao had buckled by the window were turned over, one was placed in front of Li Cheng, and the other was placed in front of himself.
"It will be all right,"
Li Cheng looked at He Ao, as if he was curious about where He Ao got the drink from, "Is there anything I can choose from?"
He Ao pulled out a huge old-fashioned thermos kettle from the corner, opened the cork, and the faint smoke filled the air. He poured a cup of boiled water into his cup, "Plain water, or coffee, or milk."
Then he raised his head and glanced at Li Cheng, "Would you like some hot coffee?"
"Can."
Li Cheng glanced at the kettle in He Ao's hand and felt something was wrong, but it seemed to fit the environment of this car.
It seemed that He Ao used this kind of kettle to store drinks, but just when he thought He Ao would put down the kettle and go to get the thermos with coffee, he saw He Ao directly lift the kettle and put it in his cup.
Pour a glass of boiled water.
"Do you want regular coffee or cappuccino?"
He Ao asked softly while taking back the kettle.
Li Cheng lowered his head and glanced at the cup filled with boiled water in front of him, and said with a smile, "Is there any difference?"
He Ao took out a packet of instant coffee powder from his pocket and placed it on the table, "Ordinary coffee,"
Then he took out another packet of instant milk powder and placed it next to the coffee powder. He pushed both packets of instant milk powder towards Li Cheng and said, "Put the two together, cappuccino."
Li Cheng blinked and looked at the instant milk powder and instant coffee powder on the table. He paused, picked up the instant coffee powder, opened the package and poured it into the cup.
"Actually, when I was in the laboratory, I often made instant coffee powder to drink,"
He slowly picked up the instant milk powder, unpacked it, and poured it into a cup. He picked up a spoon and gently stirred the solution in the cup. "I just haven't tried mixing milk powder and coffee powder together."
Then he glanced at the package of the bag of instant coffee powder, "Vedesk? The instant coffee here is actually good, but I remember that this is a small brand of instant coffee that is only sold in the Theia Empire."
"I have no idea,"
He Ao took out a packet of milk powder from his pocket and poured it into the cup in front of him. He picked up a spoon and stirred it clockwise. "I picked it up from the supermarket shelf."
Li Cheng raised his head and looked at the young man in front of him. He would not judge that the young man in front of him lived in the Tia Empire just because of this detail.
For the Velora, traveling around the world is an easy task.
However, this series of actions by 'Hao Yi' made this mysterious and unknown B-class a little more 'terrestrial', making him appear even closer.
At this moment, Hao Yi does not act like a mysterious visitor from the ruins, but more like an ordinary young man wandering around the city.
The invisible barrier between the two people disappeared a lot with these actions.
Of course, Li Cheng would not despise the 'Hao Yi' in front of him because of this.
From the moment he got in the car, the other party easily built a mystery, and then eliminated the mystery with his own hands, which also eliminated the barrier between the two.
This method itself means strong field control ability.
Invisibly, the situation was completely under the control of this young man, and Li Cheng could only speak according to the other person's rhythm.
"About to arrive."
At this moment, He Ao put down the spoon in his hand and glanced at the dark car window. Then he looked back at Li Cheng's face and pointed at his chest.
Li Cheng pulled out a dark button on his chest and crushed it with his hand.
This button is a miniature camera that is directly connected to the communication equipment of Moonlight, World Tree and the institute's headquarters.
Seeing Li Cheng's actions, He Ao smiled, leaned down, blew out the flame of the lantern, and then stood up slowly.
At this moment when the flames dimmed, the train rushed out of the 'tunnel', and bright sunlight instantly shone into the entire carriage.
The dazzling light shone on the young man's swaying broken hair and angular profile when he raised his head, outlining a glorious and sacred outline.
"So what do you want to see me for?"
He Ao lifted the cup and put the microwaved milk to his mouth.
Outside the window is a lake as clear as a mirror. The snow-capped mountains in the distance are reflected in the mirror light of the lake. An old-fashioned train full of the flavor of the times carries the breeze across the water and passes by the mountains below the lake, swaying in the waves.
ripple.
A fallen leaf fell from the tree by the lake in the breeze and stuck on the ripples of the water, rising and falling with the swaying reflection of the snow-capped mountains.
This scenery was not found by He Ao, but a nearby scenic spot randomly found by the Velora.
The Velora always finds the most beautiful places nearby.
Li Cheng withdrew his eyes from the beautiful scenery outside the window. He stared at He Ao's cheek, "Theoretically, the reason why I came to you is to thank you for your help in the coma incident in Ellen City and to thank you for saving so many people.
.”
"No thanks, I'm just doing my thing,"
He Ao blew on the hot milk and said, "They can get help, but they are lucky enough that I happened to be involved in this matter."
Then he took a sip of milk and looked at Li Cheng, "So the actual reason is the time and space anchor of the ruins passage? The time and space anchor is indeed here with me, but what can you give me?"
Hearing 'Hao Yi' directly admit that the space-time anchor was in his hand, Li Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. If 'Hao Yi' didn't even have it, this matter would be troublesome.
And the other party is very smart. Since he directly named the problem, there is a possibility of making a deal. He looked at He Ao and asked tentatively,
"According to previous agreements between major organizations, organizations with time and space anchors can obtain most of the quota for ruins."
"You know, it doesn't matter to me."
He Ao put down the milk glass and looked at Li Cheng with a smile, "And there shouldn't be my signature on your agreement."
The implication of this sentence is that I am not within your rules.
The biggest fear in negotiations is to be brought into someone else's rule system. Under the rules set by others, even if the other party does not change the rules and cheats, a novice can't beat a veteran who has been immersed in it for many years.
Li Cheng naturally knew this, and he also knew that the quota in the ruins passage was of little use to a lone B-class like 'Hao Yi' without any organization. After all, the opponent was a B-class, could not enter the ruins, and had no subordinates to go through.
"We can provide you with extraordinary items," Li Cheng thought for a moment and replied, "If you need it, based on the importance of this ruin, we can provide you with two C-level extraordinary items."
This was the bargaining chip he had negotiated with World Tree and Moonlight before coming here.
Of course, the price is also negotiable.
"I don't seem to be lacking in extraordinary items now,"
He Ao picked up the milk and said calmly.
Li Cheng stared at He Ao. He knew that the mysterious young man in front of him probably had his own price tag. He asked slowly, "What can we provide?"
"information."
He Ao took a sip of milk and said slowly.
"information?"
Li Cheng was stunned.
"I need you to give me access to read all the research materials and information about the ruins. I can sign a contract with you separately and not leak your information to other families. Of course, you can choose to believe me or not,"
He Ao spoke in a calm tone, "Besides, I need all the animals or plants you have that contain extraordinary power but do not form extraordinary items. I don't need specific herbs or materials. You can make those things yourself."
Keep it.
"All I need are animals or plants with extraordinary power. The extraordinary power of the main world has been improving for so many years. You should have a lot of these things in your warehouse."
He Ao glanced at Li Cheng's ears and continued to lift the cup, "You can discuss this."
For warriors, the extraordinary power in food can also be directly digested and absorbed.
"We do have a lot of this stuff in our warehouse, but what does he use it for?"
Jodel's voice rang in Li Cheng's ears.
"He has mastered a lot of knowledge that we don't know, and may know some precious materials that we don't know."
A weak voice sounded on the call channel, it was Moonlight's Class B who had been injured by Li Cheng before.
"No matter whether it is precious or not, as long as we don't use it, it is the same as ordinary useless materials, and our materials may not contain truly precious materials. This is actually a gamble for him,"
Liu Zhengyun thought for a moment and said slowly, "Lao Li, I think it is feasible to exchange things that are of no use to us for the quota of the ruins passage. The storage of those materials requires special structures, which consumes a lot of management and storage costs every year."
"I have no opinion."
Moonlight's Class B said weakly
"Then I have no objection," Jodel paused for a moment, "What about the intelligence? Are you willing to share it with him? What he wants is authority, not intelligence backup, which means he can see our latest results at any time."
"I have no opinion."
Moonlight's Class B said calmly.
Rudel fell into a brief silence.
It's not that Yueguang absolutely believes in 'Hao Yi', but it's that Yueguang can't afford to offend a powerful B-class now, so for Yueguang, all information that is not core can be released.
"We can do that too."
During the period when Rudel was silent, Liu Zhengyun also spoke slowly.
There was a dull sound of inhalation from Rudel. It seemed that he opened his mouth but was deep in thought. Finally, he said, "That's okay, we don't have any objections."
"Have you discussed it yet?"
He Ao asked softly.
"Okay, we agree to your terms,"
Li Cheng nodded and looked at He Ao, "How are the quotas allocated?"
"I will support whoever gives more, and whoever has the most quota will get it."
Ho shrugged.
Anyway, the High Probability Research Institute is the richest and the most willing.
Then he looked at Li Cheng and pointed at Li Cheng's ears.
Li Cheng glanced at He Ao doubtfully, reached out and took out the earphones from his ears, and shattered them with lightning flashing from his fingertips.
Then he took out the satellite phone he used to contact other people and turned it off.
"Okay, now that we've finished talking about this, it's time to talk about our deal."
He Ao looked at Li Cheng with a smile.
He raised his hand, and the entire carriage was suddenly covered in shadow.
