After separating from his best friend, Xia Miaomiao and his party headed north along the Hengduan Mountains until they penetrated deep into the abandoned wasteland and set up camp on a desolate Gobi Desert.
The journey lasted for more than ten days. Judging from the map, we actually didn’t go very far. We were only over 200 kilometers away from the ruins of Jibei City. We were far away from Jinan City, more than 1,500 kilometers away from our abandoned home—the gang station.
Guards City is more than 2,000 kilometers away.
Looking at the map, one can't help but sigh. The imperial map's hegemony was just a dream, and now it's time to start over.
To give up the well-developed gang station, who would be the most saddened is naturally the spring flow of the river.
But during this migration, he was indeed the most positive one, and he often joked with the backbone members of the gang who looked down on him. He looked at success or failure and lived a heroic life. The worst he could do was to start all over again.
If he simply starts over from scratch, God knows how much his losses will be. Just the established infrastructure and resource extraction points where the gang is stationed will be an astronomical figure.
With such a huge benefit, just give up?
Although the system provides various compensations, such as retaining the original gang level, gang contribution, opening gang functions, etc., it also gives back reputation and rights, and the free title is upgraded by one level.
So now Yijiang Chunshui is already a system viscount.
But the viscount was a group viscount. If the gang leader changed that day, the viscount became someone else's.
"Don't you know, during the third and fourth tests, Chun Shui was one of the top 100 masters, a real expert at playing?"
The teammates laughed, rested for a while, and walked into the cave.
"The title is not enough, so the level is needed to make it up, right?"
"What else are you looking at, helping the pig?"
"What about the aboriginal population? This place doesn't look like it can grow bitter wheat anyway."
"Give me a little more time," Xia Miaomiao began to wipe her longbow again, "a little bit, just a little bit."
With the contrast from the outside, the place looked "beautiful". When Shao Bing found the entrance to the underground cave, the team cheered quietly.
He vaguely heard the sound of rushing water, and he said that they were almost there. After ten minutes of rest, the team members sat down on the marching carpet with relief, feeling even more tired than when they came off the battlefield.
Shao Bing glanced at the [Dragon's Song] orange level 45 longbow that Xia Miaomiao was wiping, and slapped his forehead as if he had just remembered, "There is still a piece of dragon crystal in the gang warehouse. I'm thinking about giving it to you that day.
Make one and see if you can make it into a suit."
"I was still a newbie at that time. I didn't dare to go to such a dangerous place so far away." The leader of the Gang Hall of Fame said with a smile: "Chun Shui, what's over there?"
Then he stood up, clapped his hands, and said, "Work harder, and we'll rest when we get there."
"Who can come to such a far away place if you're not Gao Wan?"
There are many animal footprints on both sides of the pool. The most common ones are rat-like goblins, and there are also many others such as lizardmen, goblins, etc.
"It cannot be cancelled. As long as there is demand... no one can block the flow of money online and offline."
"When you get to this place, you can relax a little and don't be tense all the time."
"Really, it doesn't look like it."
Intelligent creatures would not leave such clear traces. The good news is that the water in the pool is very clear and should be drinkable, but I don't know if there are any aquatic monsters below, such as fish-men or the like.
Damn, what kind of desolate country is this?
There are almost no traces of living creatures. There are only twos and threes of demonized giant mosquitoes flying on the filthy salt water pools. It took a long time for a bird to fly in the sky. Forget about any resource points.
"What about 3 tests and 4 tests?", the Saint of Huaguoshan said with a smile: "It's not too far away, but why do I feel as if decades have passed?"
What is the use value of a place like this?
Shao Bing was troubled, but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled heroically, pointed to a mountain forest invisible in the distance and said: "I remember when we were in the 3rd or 4th test, I went there with a team. At that time
There is still a demonic disaster, but it is not as quiet as it is now. All kinds of demonized monsters are really layered and densely packed."
But the magic resistance is very weak and can be easily restrained. But the problem is that the resurrection and teleportation arrays at the camp have not been built yet. If you accidentally die, it will be almost as good as death. The nearest resurrection point is too
It's so far away that we can't contact you here.
Shao Bing smiled and ignored this, he was already at the front.
"Is it related to the offline fog?"
It is also far away from the traditional game area, which has pros and cons.
I don’t know how difficult it is for the system to test level 5 professions.
"Um"
"Thank you", Xia Miaomiao smiled.
If he hadn't jumped into the big pit of Yuanverse real estate before, maybe he wouldn't be like this now. Maybe he would be like Xia Miaomiao and concentrate on climbing on the 'right path'.
Wangshan ran to death, and when Shao Bing arrived at the mountain forest staring at the strong wind, it was already dark, the wind was too strong, and the torches could not light, so he could only use magic to illuminate.
Shao Bing couldn't understand why these level 5 professional titles and cloaks had no problem with combat power and equipment.
"A kind of dragon, light red, everyone, be careful!"
"The level of our players is still too low. Just say one Yukong, how many are there now?"
"Why are you talking so much? It's just what you're doing. Anyway, we have plenty of time now."
Shao Bing said with certainty: "I have consulted experts and a plan has been drawn up. When the aboriginal population moves in later, we will start building the dam."
The abandoned wasteland is a place cursed by the gods. Although the demonic tide has receded, there are all kinds of strange, ghost-like things everywhere. There is a faint burnt smell in the air, and thick layers of salt and alkali are like giant giants.
The ground was covered with scabies, and the stagnant ditches in the low-lying areas were smelly and dark, and were surrounded by the bones of unknown animals.
"This is the mark I left last time"
"That would be great. I really want to exercise and go out to find humanoid monsters."
The ground has accumulated a thick layer of rot over the years, and a shrub full of spikes grows everywhere. These spikes are poisonous and are very troublesome to clean. If they are accidentally pierced, they will be infected with all kinds of negative effects.
The situation is very annoying.
"...It's too much, let the indigenous people and tourists do it slowly."
"It should be the target of indigenous professionals. The real Level 5 profession is so difficult. Anyway, I don't know if I can achieve it in my life... But it doesn't matter, it's enough to be amazing."
This thing really looks like the giant python monster in the Godzilla movie.
"There are very few monsters?"
"Did you get the mission?"
Half an hour later, Chun Shui carefully asked the system to recover the level 53 dragon with only one breath left. He was in a good mood and said, "Isn't this the first mini-boss of the gang?"
When he came outside, Shao Bing thought of the little sapling hugging his thigh in the past, and laughed dumbly. Who would have thought at that time that Xia Miaomiao's current position would be more like his, and he had given up on the 'right path' long ago.
I worked hard and became obsessed with business-related gameplay early on.
"Okay, you don't need to participate in gang activities during this period, just concentrate on... concentrate on 'preparing for the exam'."
Shao Bing put away the parchment and said calmly: "Nothing, map."
Shao Bing stood on a protruding hill in the Gobi Desert and looked at this barren land.
Knights can already have their own fiefs, advance to the lord level, and have business gameplay and permissions.
Although Shao Bing said he was full of confidence, in fact, he had no confidence in his heart. Fortunately, when he arrived at this place, the system became active. Seeing the frequent system prompts had a huge effect on stabilizing people's hearts.
A thick and large light shield blocked everyone in front of them. With a "Boom!", a strange thing shaped like a giant python with its head bumping into corners fell back.
"Don't talk about me, you are still the same."
Shao Bing shook his head and left some men in the camp in the afternoon. He led a group of people to the mountain forest in the distance.
I saw that the area of the pool is not large. Because the terrain is relatively high, the water flows very quickly. The water channel in front of it must have turned underground again, so there is no river water outside.
The players skillfully formed their battle formations. By the time Yalong shook his dizzy head and raised his upper body, the mage here had already finished singing.
"This thing needs to be cleaned up, otherwise it will be a hidden danger."
The cave is very big, and there are countless forked roads leading into it, just like an underground maze.
Xia Miaomiao shook her head, "It has nothing to do with combat power and equipment."
Lunch was hastily eaten, and while others were doing lunch lessons (praying, practicing faith), Shao Bing found Xia Miaomiao, who was sitting alone at the sentry post.
As soon as he finished speaking, a sinister wind blew in his face. Shao Bing smelled the thick fishy smell first and decisively activated the group defense effect on the ring.
“calm and calm”
"The monsters summoned are too dull, and the ones trained are all routine fighters, which are not very useful."
While the backbone members were chatting and laughing, the camp had been built.
No one was panicked. The subspecies of dragon, a subspecies of dragon, was rare but not unseen. In the past, the gang had an Assyrian dungeon. That guy was like a tyrannosaurus rex, with poor physical attributes.
It's so full that even the ten barbarians of the Holy Warriors together are not strong enough to scratch it with one claw. It will really kill you if you touch it, and get hurt if you rub it.
"The one the gang produced last time?"
Before the all-out war broke out, the meritorious service required for a knight's first-level title was not something that ordinary people could produce. Now it is given for free. Although it inevitably causes devaluation, it is enough to appease the dissatisfaction of most people.
Shao Bing pointed to a mark left on the stone wall at the entrance and said: "At that time, I wanted to come back when my level was higher, but I didn't expect that I would have to wait until now."
A coin attached to the light spell was suspended in front of the team. In the dark night environment, the small one seemed to be swallowed up at any time. The trees in the mountain forest also grew in strange shapes. In the fluctuation and swaying of light and darkness, it seemed as if
There are countless ghosts and monsters baring their teeth and claws.
"What's this?"
"Yes, if you build a city here, the summoning array will be a big investment."
"Don't mention it, don't mention it," Shao Bing waved his hand, "Let's go in...be careful, it's been so long, I don't know if there is any danger."
Two strange human-shaped rocks are leaning against each other, which is easy to recognize. Behind the big rocks is the pool emerging from the underground river mentioned by Shao Bing.
"There is an outlet of the underground river, and there is a large cave inside. I didn't notice it before. There should be a lot of mineral deposits in it that can be mined... Along the underground river, there is also an underground stone forest, some ghouls, goblins,
Monsters like Goblins are very active and can be used as materials for gang trial dungeons..."
Everyone's mood will inevitably be affected. Leaving a prosperous place like the main city of the system and going to such a place where there is nothing, nothing, and inconvenience, is really...
"Have you heard that the offline exchange market has been cancelled?"
Both of them are like this. When I ask them, they don't tell me. I just pretend that I can't explain clearly.
Every step I took was fighting against this extremely annoying shrub. The tank that opened the way lost one-third of its health. A teammate tried it out and found out that this thing is particularly flammable and will emit strong poisonous smoke when burned.
Within half an hour, Shao Bing's physical strength bottomed out.
Xia Miaomiao nodded.
"If I make another orange outfit, will I be able to control the air?" Shao Bing asked the question he was most concerned about.
The sound of water flowing was louder than outside. It echoed through countless forks and was deafening, just like being in a rumbling factory.
"Is it possible? Repair water conservancy online?"
Having just said Yukong, Shao Bing had another thought in his mind.
The teammates got up one after another, the sentinels on guard returned to the team, and the scouts walked in front, heading towards the direction where the sound of water came from.
Before nightfall, the biting wilderness wind was blowing, making people unsteady on their feet. The wind was getting stronger and stronger, mixed with all kinds of screams and weird sounds like babies crying.
There is no need to worry about the "cruising sky train" in the sky at this location. The abandoned wasteland is still a place of exile. It is not friendly to the gods and their minions. I heard that in the deepest place, there is an unknown clone of the true god.
Dumped there, it can be called the Bermuda Triangle of the main material world.
Being regarded as a lair by such a big man, the inside is naturally spacious, but the smell is very touching. There are bones, residues and the like left by Yalongji everywhere, as well as molted skin. The pile is as high as a person. The system prompts that it is OK.
It's an unexpected blessing to be used as a pharmaceutical material.
"I know...what's wrong with you?"
"Fuck, before the 6th beta, who would have thought that online would be like this? We are being hunted like a defeated dog, and we can't even save the main city of the system."
"It shouldn't be more than 100. The conditions for changing jobs are too difficult to meet. I heard a big water pipe Jingshi said that he still doesn't even fully understand the conditions for changing jobs."
Shao Bing bent down and grabbed the generally dry soil, tasted the salty taste of the soil with his tongue, and said with confidence: "We can build a dam there to store water, and divert the water to flush this land. It won't take long.
The water flow will take away the salt in the soil, and soon it will become a fertile and arable land."
"How about it?"
In order to boost morale and for practical reasons, the system decided that all those who participated in the migration this time were awarded the private title of a second-class knight.
"Who knows, don't say this online, it's not good."
"No matter what the assessment is, can you please help me with the details? Now the gang especially needs a level 5 profession, otherwise a random Frost Giant, Titan or Beamon will not be able to pass it."
Following the largest corridor, leaving marks along the way, it took another half an hour for Shao Bing to find the ideal place to build the city.
This is a huge rocky hollow area, very hard on all sides, not far from the underground river, but blocked by layers of thick rock walls, the noise is within a tolerable range.
The terrain is very flat, and the most rare thing is that there is a layer of soil such as lava ash. Therefore, the vegetation is lush, and useful and rare materials are everywhere.
"I found a red serpentine here last time, but I don't know if it's still there now."
Standing on a big rock, Shao Bing looked at this land of hope for a new beginning, and carefully took out the "Heart of the City".
