Zhan Zhouzhou rolled his eyes at him and put down the bowl: "Open the door for me, I'm going out to do a task."
"Doing a mission?" Li Zheng paused and said, "Going to the wilderness?"
"Well, the rewards for missions in the wilderness are relatively generous." Zhan Zhouzhou went to the mission hall before he arrived and found that there were several more collection missions similar to yesterday's 'Pure Blood Red-skinned Pig Tusks'.
Today, she was mentally prepared. At worst, she would slaughter the area cleanly when she arrived at a certain place. Regardless of whether the blood was pure or not, she would put it into a capsule and bring it back to hand over, striving to complete the task as quickly as possible.
A total of five similar tasks were accepted this time. Zhan Zhouzhou planned to complete them in one day today. As long as they are completed, he will receive a reward of 500,000 white crystal coins.
"Have you forgotten what you encountered yesterday? Why are you still running into the wilderness?" Li Zheng advised: "Can't you just accept some errands that can be completed in the outer city?"
"Errand tasks?" Zhan Zhouzhou said: "The maximum reward for an errand task is three to four hundred white crystal coins. I don't know how much time it will waste. It is completely incomparable with those tasks that go to outer cities."
You can only do tasks by going to the outer city. Whether it is collection or something else, as long as it is not the tasks released by the terminal, the rewards are very considerable.
The lowest and lowest number all have four digits starting with five.
"Less is a bit less, but that kind of mission is more stable... Oh, I forgot, with your personality, if you pursue comfort and stability, then you are not the one to show off." Li Zheng said half-way to react.
, no longer tried to persuade him, he got up and went to the door of the portal and asked: "Number."
Zhan Zhouzhou followed and reported all the area numbers she wanted to go to. This way, after she completed the task in a certain area, she could use the ring to go to the next place without returning to the outer city.
transit.
"It's so long...how many missions have you taken?" Li Zheng complained over and over again and entered the numbers. After all the numbers were entered and the portal gave stable feedback, he warned: "Be careful in the wilderness. If you encounter danger,
, we must find a safe place to return to the outer city!"
The ring not only requires a ten-second buffer when returning, but also jumps between several set areas. Therefore, this is the reason why most people in the outer city are unwilling to go to the wilderness. It is really hard to find.
If you encounter any loopholes, your own security is not guaranteed.
Fear of death is a common trait among survivors of all races in the outer city. Those who are not afraid of death would have been buried on the battlefield against the spiritual storm, and would not be reduced to hiding in the outer city and lingering.
Therefore, the portal receptionist, who was supposed to be the busiest position in the outer city, became an idle job, which Li Zheng thought was reasonable.
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid, I will do what I can." Zhan Zhouzhou saw a bright light coming from the portal. She didn't have any physical weapons in the equipment storage area, so she could just go in.
Li Zheng sighed as he watched Zhan Zhouzhou's figure disappear into the depths of the portal.
Now he is the only new player left in the entire outer city...
If there is a book, it will be long; if there is no book, it will be short.
When he was in the matrix, Li Zheng had endless things to do every day and lived a very fulfilling life every day.
After becoming a temporary receptionist, it was really boring. The whole day passed slowly in boredom.
During this period, Li Zheng was really bored and would think of ways to make something that might be useful.
For example: culture medium.
The few white crystal coins he has on him have been used up. Now he is making some culture fluid. When his career as a temporary receptionist is over, he can immediately find a botanical garden to trade.
Fortunately, the pharmaceutical table is the same as the stove and can be operated in a capsule, which saves Li Zheng some troubles.
"Hmm... I remember I had a USB flash drive with the 'Melting Furnace' in it before?" Li Zheng rummaged through the capsule, and sure enough, a USB flash drive came out.
Holding it in his hand, he was stunned: "This thing...could it be the equipment used to make weapons in the outer city? Just like the stove, the medicine table, and the mechanical knife mantis production line?"
Previously, because the weapons could be rubbed with hands, Li Zheng was not in a hurry to get out the furnace. Now he remembered that he had such a blueprint, and suddenly regretted it...
In order to save time and materials, we did not build the furnace. Who would have thought that it could be used now?
Only when he came to use it did he realize that everything was too late. This blueprint could only be a blueprint, unless he could find other ways to get the furnace in the blueprint out of the outer city.
"Let's take a look when we return to the Matrix one day." Li Zheng put away the USB flash drive. He always felt that only one furnace was not enough. He planned to go back to the Matrix one day to see if there were any matching equipment drawings.
From then until dinner time, Li Zheng lay on the table staring at the portal.
In the afternoon, there were a few residents from outer cities who used teleportation gates, but they were all teleporting through neighborhoods, and none of them went to places like the wilderness.
After sending them away one by one, Li Zheng returned to the table and sat down, shaking his head speechlessly: "These guys who are afraid of death, what's the use of keeping them in the terminal? It's a waste of resources..."
In the middle of muttering, Li Zheng realized that he was thinking of seeking stability when sending Zhan Zhouzhou to the wilderness, and laughed a few times to himself.
In the evening, Miriel, who went shopping, came back.
Although they are already poor, it does not prevent Miriel from going out and not buying anything.
In her words, even if I don’t buy anything, I will be happy if I go to those stores and try it out...
Li Zheng thought it made sense. This logic seemed to be what most women thought. He, a straight man, would never think like this.
Miriel and Li Zheng asked for some ingredients and went to the stove to work on dinner. Li Zheng continued to stare at the portal and complained that he was bored.
Since entering the Matrix, Li Zheng has missed the Internet, mobile phones, computers and other electronic entertainment devices the most these two days...
As long as he has a mobile phone to play small games, he will not be bored.
"By the way, there are so many generations of players in the outer city, but no one has built the Internet?" Li Zhengxu complained with his eyes. Obviously, a blacksmith can make a communication device like a PHS, so it shouldn't be difficult to build something like the Internet.
Is it difficult?
unless……
Li Zheng raised his eyes and looked at the sky.
Unless someone doesn’t want the ‘Internet’ to appear in the outer city.
[Friendly reminder: There is a network in the outer city, but ordinary people cannot use it without authorization. 】
Lao Pu gave a reminder. After reading it, Li Zheng felt calm: "I have already guessed it."
What controls the outer city network is undoubtedly the entity living in the terminal.
Don't forget, Li Zheng's body now lives in a device similar to a supercomputer. If there is a network in the outer city, the terminal will definitely not be able to help but connect to it.
At that time, he will be very busy dealing with the hackers who invade the terminal every day.
So it’s not that there is no Internet in outer cities, it’s that not everyone can use the Internet.
In the outer city, the terminal is the absolute authority. Once anyone can access the network, his authoritative position will be constantly offended and shaken.
As a result, his status as an absolute controller in the eyes of the residents of the outer city has lost its intimidating effect.
Only by preventing all this from the source and not allowing others the opportunity to offend him can his position be stabilized.
"Isn't the reason why those emperors in ancient times were overthrown because as long as they broke through the Forbidden Army's defense line, the rebels' butcher's knife could be placed on the emperor's neck?" Li Zheng said in his terminal mind: "So my main approach is to prevent it.
All possibilities should be put before him... no, it should be to eliminate all beings who want to put a knife on his neck!"
Regarding Ontology's approach, Li Zheng sighed in his heart:
Really, as steady as an old dog...
At this time, the portal flashed brightly, and someone was coming.
