The environment here is completely different from the endless ocean. The first thing you feel when entering here is the high temperature that is unbearable for ordinary people.
The heat wave is coming, and players with lower physical fitness may even feel that the exposed hair on their bodies is slowly curling under the high temperature.
The terrain of the lava mountains is also very unique. As far as the eye can see, there are barren stone mountains with no vegetation, only various irregular craters scattered everywhere.
This is a paradise for players who are good at fire-based abilities, but it is also a place where other players don't want to stay any longer.
"There are actually quite a lot of people." Li Zheng stood at the entrance of the lava mountain. Looking around, even with the high temperatures, there were quite a few players fishing in various craters.
"Because most players who have developed fire-type genetic abilities have excellent tolerance to high temperatures, and the special catches produced in the lava mountains have a strengthening effect on various fire-type abilities, these talents are willing to come to this environment.
I will suffer the consequences.”
Fengshan came over from a short distance away, explained Li Zheng's doubts, and then complained: "I knew you would definitely come, but I didn't expect you to come so early."
Li Zheng was confused: "How did you know I would come?"
"Isn't this obvious?" Fengshan pointed to a volcano crater not far away: "This environment is tailor-made for you. Once your genetic ability is activated, the entire volcano will explode, right?"
"Have you known that fish caught by unconventional means also count as points?" Li Zheng asked with a frown.
"It's not too early, right? I guessed it five minutes ago when the fishing gear merchant suddenly started selling a special prop." Fengshan waved his hand and said, "Come and take a look?"
"good."
Li Zheng followed Fengshan and walked towards the businessman not far away who was responsible for the fishing gear trade in the lava mountain area.
When he arrived, Li Zheng was shocked: "Is there anyone among you businessmen? Why are you even here?"
Fengshan was also shocked: "Do you know him?"
know?
Of course I know Li Zheng!
That blue skin, ordinary appearance, and unruly temperament.
Isn't this the wandering businessman "Xiao" I met not long ago?
Xiao sat on the leather chair, enjoying the cool air blown by the air cooler next to him. He held a glass of fiery red drink in his hand and slowly sipped it with a straw. Hearing Li Zheng's voice, his eyelids raised slightly, revealing a
Zhang's ordinary face: "Huh? You look familiar?"
"I'm sorry, people of your race all look similar to me. Have we met somewhere?" Xiao bit his straw and spoke clearly. His expression didn't look like he was pretending to be stupid.
Fengshan stared at Li Zheng suspiciously, what you call acquaintance means that you know him, but he doesn't know you, right?
Li Zheng is numb. Is the co-author still a little face-blind?
Last time we said we were going to make friends before we parted, but it didn’t take long before you completely forgot about me?
But it doesn’t make sense!
Even if you are face-blind, can't you tell the difference between having hair and not having hair?
At this time, a player who was buying props came up next to him: "Boss, here's a flying claw!"
"Shenghui, one thousand points."
With the guests, Xiao naturally prioritized business. He turned around and took out a strange-looking machine. He banged it on the ground with a bang and took away a pile of fiery red fish with various strange looks.
Looking at the player, Li Zheng finally understood why Xiao couldn't tell the difference between having hair and not having hair.
Because this player is obviously an unlucky guy who has triggered side effects. Not even a hair can be seen on his head, which is not much better than Li Zheng.
"Damn, with this Flying Claw, I'm going to make those little trash from the Imperial Cavalry kneel down and sing Conquest!" The bald player put away the machine, looked at Li Zheng with a sympathetic look, and turned around to leave.
From so far away, you can still hear the man shouting in the distance: "Come on, two brothers! This flying claw machine cannot be operated by one person!"
Then two more bald players ran over from a distance...
After handling the transaction, Xiao turned around and saw Sakura sleeping behind Li Zheng. He suddenly remembered: "I remember, you are the first player to trade with me!"
Thinking of who Li Zheng was, Xiao's expression became much more friendly. After all, this was the most wealthy customer he had ever encountered in his business career. One transaction could equal more than ten transactions with other players!
Li Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved as he was pressing his toes in the villa. Fengshan's suspicious eyes seemed to have a magical power that could make people die.
This guy never misses any opportunity to take advantage of himself, just like he did to Feng before.
"I didn't expect to meet you when I got a part-time job!" Xiao Zilai put his hand on Li Zheng's shoulder like a familiar person: "The channel you told me about last time is really good, with a lot of customers and high quality. I later returned
I wanted to go back and say thank you to you, but why couldn’t I find you?”
Fengshan was upset when he saw this: "I'm going to see you, and you actually know me?"
It’s such a pity that another opportunity to take advantage of Lao Li was lost!
"Uh... did you go back to channel 995 to find me?" Li Zheng remembered that after he returned to channel 879, he had heard about the fight between Lu Li and Xiao, and thought to himself that this matter was indirectly related to him?
But then again, with how blind Xiao Xiao is, if Xiao Sakura doesn't show up, even if he finds her, he might not be able to recognize her, right?
"That's right, otherwise I would be too busy to run around when I have business?" Xiao showed a puzzled expression: "Not long after I returned to that channel, I met another guy who took the initiative to fight with me. After we settled down, I realized that it was not you.
.”
Settlement?
To be able to calm down enough to recognize that the other person is not him, how smooth did Lu Li have to be at that time?
Li Zheng was still very curious about this matter. He took the time to ask Lu Li why Hao Duan Duan attacked the businessman.
Lu Li said at the time that it was late at night when Xiao appeared, and he thought he was a stranger wandering around, so he acted first.
Unexpectedly, Xiao's strength was so incredible that he was defeated in just a few strokes.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It’s not Lu Li’s fault to say this. Anyone who sees an extra creature in the room he is in in the middle of the night will think it is a wandering monster, right?
Unexpected disasters belong to yes.
The corner of Li Zheng's mouth twitched slightly, and after investigating carefully, he found that Lu Li was beaten up by Xiao, and he had his own reasons behind it.
You can give him some compensation later if appropriate.
But from a certain perspective, this can be regarded as "the son inherits the father's legacy".
"By the way." Li Zheng remembered something and asked Xiaodao: "Don't your special merchants be able to fight back when they are attacked by players? Why are you showing mercy this time?"
The special merchants are all recruited from the outer city by the terminal, and they are very powerful. In order to protect the active players, the rules are set not to take the initiative to attack the active players.
However, as the player base grows, there will always be some guys with strange brain circuits who will focus on the goods in the hands of special merchants and kill people to steal goods.
In this regard, the terminal also gives these special merchants the privilege to kill players as a last resort.
Otherwise, wouldn't the profession of a special businessman become a doorstep that everyone can bully?
This was measured by Li Zheng through two personal experiences.
"Ha!" Xiao laughed and explained: "Anyway, your strength won't cause much trouble to me. In your words, you have to be merciful and forgiving. It's better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies!"
He said it very generously, but his actual thinking was that in his eyes, the strength of these players was just that.
Instead of killing the opponent with a backhand, it is better to let the opponent survive.
After all, every player is their potential customer, and missing one is a loss.
Li Zheng looked at the other person suspiciously. Although he didn't have much contact with Xiao, he knew that this blue-skinned guy's nature was definitely not as simple as he said.
"Then what, you basically can't find me on 995." Li Zheng said: "I have moved to channel 879 now."
"879?!"
Xiao Wenyan was stunned for a moment: "When did you go there?"
"Maybe... just the day before you went to find me?" Li Zheng wasn't sure either.
"No wonder! I asked why the number of players on channel 995 suddenly increased. Did you conduct a channel-wide transfer?" Xiao seemed to have figured something out.
"Yes, all the players you meet on channel 995 now are actually the group of people from 879 before." Li Zheng thought for a while and said: "If it is convenient, when will you come to me? I want to talk to you again.
You make a deal."
He is about to go to the outer city, and it would be great if he could get something from Xiao to defend himself.
"Okay." Xiao nodded directly in agreement without any hesitation.
This is a big customer, one order of business is comparable to ten orders from others, and it is worth a special trip for him.
"Let me ask you in advance, are you looking for me because of this little pet of yours?" Xiao glanced at the sleeping Sakura. Last time, Li was transferring genetic power from Sakura to him, which resulted in her being left behind by him.
deep impression.
Li Zheng's expression changed: "Do you have a solution here?"
"Yes, there is, but I didn't bring it with me. I have to go back to get it." Xiao nodded: "It is more troublesome to solve it in this state. You need to go to the ancestral land of the blood-striped black dragon to find a high-level black dragon, but it is not very welcome there.
As an outsider, I have some connections there, so I can help you say hello there."
"The ancestral land of the blood-striped black dragon?" Li Zheng asked, "Which area in the outer city?"
"Huh?" Xiao said with some surprise: "It seems that you know more and more about the outer city."
"But it's a pity that the territory occupied by the blood-patterned black dragon is not in the outer city, but in a corner of the wasteland. You need to use a certain prop to guide you to the exact place. What I want to go back to get is that guiding prop."
"A friendly reminder, that thing is quite precious, and you may not be able to buy it easily even in the outer city, so in terms of price..."
"How much?" Li Zheng asked.
"Five hundred!" Xiao gave the price.
"Five hundred!?" Li Zheng shouted: "Are you kidding? It only costs more than a hundred to buy an extraordinary prop!"
Five hundred genetic power can buy at least three extraordinary props!
"I treat you as a friend so I told you the price in advance so that you can be mentally prepared." Xiao said dissatisfiedly: "If it were anyone else, I wouldn't even bother to go back and make a special trip. There really wouldn't be much profit."
Li Zheng narrowed his eyes, good guy, did you spill the beans?
As long as a businessman says something like "There's really not much profit", it basically means that this business can make a lot of money!
He himself often does business with others. If he were to put himself in their shoes and say this, he would be able to earn at least three times the cost.
At that moment, he refused and said, "Forget it, I'll figure it out myself after I go to the outer city."
Xiao Ke has said it himself, "Friendship is friendship, and transaction is transaction."
It's not like he can't do something like taking advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune.
"You have to think carefully. If you miss this time, you may not even be able to find channels after you go to the outer city." Xiao also wanted to persuade him again.
However, Li Zheng made up his mind: "Needless to say, I really can't afford this price."
"Well, I hope you won't regret it then."
Xiaosong Li Zheng asked: "Since the business outside the event cannot be done for the time being, do you want to take care of the business within the event?"
"certainly."
Li Zheng originally wanted to see what the so-called special fishing gear was. If it weren't for the businessman he met this time, Xiao, he wouldn't have stayed so long.
Xiao took out a tablet of the same type as Roemand's and handed it to Li Zheng: "It records all the props I currently sell."
Li Zheng took it and saw that the props displayed on the tablet were completely different from those displayed by Roemand. Even the most basic fishing gear was very different.
Most of the basic fishing gear sold in the Endless Ocean are in the shape of ordinary fishing rods, while those sold in the Lava Mountains are all made of high-temperature-resistant materials, ensuring that they can fish in lava.
As for special props, there are no "torpedoes" and "speedboats" in the lava mountains. Instead, there are "flying claws" and "gold panning".
Flying Claw, this special machine was purchased just now and is worth one thousand points. It is not particularly expensive at this stage.
The function is that it can launch a flying claw, penetrate deep into the bottom of the magma, and directly grab the fish caught in the magma.
It's just that this kind of grabbing is difficult and complicated to operate, requiring three people to drive it at the same time.
This is also the special prop that Fengshan mentioned that just started to be sold not long ago.
From the perspective of a fishing competition, the grabbing behavior of this machine indeed exceeds the meaning of the word "fishing".
The function of the "gold panning" prop is interesting.
【Gold Rush
Limited Edition Fish Hook
There is a chance to get special harvest while fishing.
(Available in all areas!)]
Worth three thousand points!
"How is it? Is it interesting?" Xiao said at this time: "The first one of this gold rush was supposed to be sold in seventeen minutes. Considering our friendship, I put it on the shelves earlier."
"And let me tell you a secret in private. Each venue in this competition has a similar limited edition fishing gear. After collecting six pieces, there will be unexpected effects."
Unexpected effect?
Li Zheng asked: "What specific aspect does this unexpected effect refer to?"
Xiao Xiao kept it secret and said: "I can't tell you directly."
