The little robot Watson stood on the bow of the steamship, shouting loudly with his two thin arms stretched out to the left and right.
This is a small sightseeing steam ferry. Judging from its shape, it should appear on a slow-flowing river or lake, not on an extremely cold sea surrounded by ice floes.
"..." Sherlock tried hard for the nth time to find the video recording function of the universal tool.
"I'm talking about Vault Hunter, why don't you kick it into the sea now?" Semi-mechanical cowboy Shi Tie covered his head with an old felt hat: "When I heard that it was trapped by a group of monkeys, I specially drove it.
I bought a can of twenty-year-old motor oil to celebrate.”
"That's it for the time being," Sherlock shook his head: "He at least contributed to defeating the 'Icefield Bully', didn't he?"
"Tsk, you have the final say." Shi Tie shrugged, then took off his ears.
Sherlock glanced at Watson again and found that he began to twist his waist, so he sighed and turned his eyes to the stern of the boat.
In the direction in which the ferry is leaving, there is a "castle" built on the ice cliff, made of various vehicle debris and construction waste haphazardly piled up, defenseless, and burning.
That is the base, or lair, of the "Bat Brothers" and "Firebats". They lead nearly a hundred "Robins" to control the only outlet of "Jotunheim" to the sea, and regularly send water to other ice fields like Shitie.
Residents collected "taxes", ranging from currency to weapons and equipment, and even hands and feet, depending on their pleasure - of course, that has become history.
As a matter of fact, there is a big "Bat Brother" who rolls around in spiked steel armor, a "Bat Brother" who flies around in hang gliders and throws bombs, and a "Bat Brother" who wears a thick fireproof suit and holds a flame spray gun in one hand.
"Fire Bat", still caused some trouble for Sherlock. After all, he couldn't take care of Shi Tie who insisted on coming to help during such a large-scale attack.
What? Watson? Every time there is a BOSS battle, he will arrogantly taunt the BOSS, including but not limited to "Hey! Thief Sun!" "I have parents, do you?" "Sir Watson?"
I'm going to smash your noses with my butts!" and so on - and then he was chased around the place.
After being forced to pick up and sneak attack to eliminate these two groups of BOSS, Sherlock obtained the [Buy One Get One Free] grenade module and the [Thunder Fist] pistol respectively. Their functions are to throw grenades that will split, and to launch thunder balls that will delay the explosion.
, of course, they are all legendary level.
Later, Shi Tie and Watson found a intact ferry deep in the base, successfully launched it, and then left Jotunheim.
By the way, Shi Tie gave Sherlock a whiteboard "shield module" before the war, and successfully activated the "shield value" on the "health value", which can resist a certain amount of damage like "armor protection"
, but it was completely useless.

【Niflheim】
After sailing away from Jotunheim for a while, the cold wind and ice floes disappeared, replaced by a thin mist that obscured the sky and the sea. Soon, the mist parted, and a swamp-like coast with many shrubs and wetlands appeared in front of it.
and a dilapidated pier and trestle.
"This is 'Niflheim', also called 'Misty Swamp'," Shi Tie docked the ferry at the small dock on the edge of the swamp, pointing to the swamp and fog in the distance: "This is the place to go to Pandora's more densely populated area.
If you advance on foot on the only way to 'Svatelfheim' and 'Nidaveil', it will not only be difficult to prevent attacks from monsters in the fog, but you may also be swallowed by swamps and mire."
Sure enough, this is a strange planet that combines the seven kingdoms. First of all, exclude Odin from asking for trouble, and then exclude White Star and Ion Shark in terms of techniques and abilities. Then there is only one being left who can do this: Ya
The "corrupted spirit body" of space.
In addition, there was another off-site factor. Sherlock looked down at the back of his hand. The "mark" used for the Triwizard Hegemony became dim, but the "Command Spell" used to summon "Batman" was still bright red.
With the current "difficulty" of this "game", there is no need to summon him at all.
"So, what's your suggestion?" Sherlock retracted his thoughts and looked at Shi Tie, who looked like "Ask me quickly."
"So, we need to take the 'illegal modified vehicle' provided by 'Atreus Transport Company'," Shi Tie pointed to a mechanical operating platform that looked like a parking space next to the pier: "Just in time, I have two more
The 100-year-old 9.10% off membership can transfer the usage rights to you."
"..." Sherlock was at a loss for words because there were so many things to complain about.
"[Aha! Mr. Watson and Atreus are old acquaintances!]" Watson rushed off the boat in a hurry, ran to the control desk and pointed at it: "[Open the door]
!】"
No matter how much you think about it, your doorbell password will never work! Sherlock cursed as he hurriedly followed.
"[Welcome, distinguished user 'John H. Watson'.]" The console responded in an emotionless electronic voice.
...is it really useful?
“[Your ‘Supreme Ace VIP Membership’ qualification has expired,]” the electronic voice continued: “[You are prohibited from using our company’s vehicles until you have paid back the arrears of membership fees, 20,000 Eridium.]”
"Seize the young man?" Sherlock had no idea about this monetary unit or number, and Shi Tie was the first to exclaim.
"[How stingy, I just blew up a few of their top-end modified cars,]" Watson put his hands on his hips and left the control panel: "[You try it, subordinate.]"
I hope they have discounts for new users... Sherlock glanced at the "$:35545" and "E:3" displayed in the currency column on his "game interface", and had a new understanding of Watson's ability to spend money.
"[Welcome, new user, Art——]" Before the electronic voice could finish its words, it was cut off halfway. What appeared on the operating interface instead was a man wearing a greasy mechanic's suit with a slightly ugly appearance.
A wretched, thin man with a hooked nose.
Even though he was just a projection on the communication interface, the familiar, gorgeous "New Character Appears" screen still appeared in front of Sherlock's eyes as scheduled with a "bang bang" sound effect.
【King of Modified Cars! Atreus!】
【Don’t ask where the car comes from!】
"[Unlucky! This terminal has been touched by Watson, so I can no longer keep it!]" Atreus shouted in a sharp voice: "[I want to cancel all car permissions for this terminal!]"
Before Sherlock could say anything, the console interface was filled with rows of "errors" and triangular icons representing warnings.
[Oh, that's too bad, Atreus seems to be allergic to Watson.] At this time, Yin Di, no, the transparent blue face of "angel" appeared in front of Sherlock: "Don't worry, I can easily handle this blockade."
, let’s put the account on Watson’s head.】
Varied--
Sizzling——
The next moment, the console full of error messages quickly returned to normal.
"[Welcome, 'Supreme Ace VIP' user, Sherlock Holmes,]" the electronic voice said: "[Your 'Super Luxury Modified Off-Road Vehicle PLUS' has been delivered.]"
With the red and black light spots suddenly appearing on the "parking space", an off-road vehicle with thick body armor, huge spiked wheels, cool colorful paint and two rocket launchers was "printed".
This situation is really consistent with Atreus's "molecular influence" ability.
