Chapter 163: Only civilian players like to form teams.
"After entering the smoke-free city, you are not allowed to leave the city without permission, otherwise you will be immediately deemed to have voluntarily quit. Make good use of the watch in your hand, and pay more attention to the information
released and changed above.
The performance points you earn during the process will be converted into corresponding merit points after the assessment.
Even if you fail the assessment, you can exchange them for a large amount of money."
"So...work hard and perform well!"
said the person in charge at the door of the shuttle cabin. The middle-aged white bear man who explained the assessment rules handed Lu Yuan a black watch with an LCD dial.
Then pat him on the shoulder and give him some final encouragement.
Lu Yuan nodded, put away his watch, and watched the silver-gray shuttle take off in front of him, then quickly fly away.
He was the last one among the five examiners in the shuttle who finally decided to take part in the assessment to get off the shuttle.
The shuttle "dropped" the five of them at different locations in the Smoke-free City.
It seems that they didn't want them to stay together and act collectively from the beginning.
The place where Lu Yuan is now is in an old alley with a rather ancient style. There is no one around, except for a black cat squatting next to a trash can not far away, watching him quietly.
The road ahead is long.
The black cat didn't seem to be afraid of him at all, but took the initiative to walk towards him.
Then he lay down lazily two meters away from him, looking at him provocatively with squinting eyes.
Lu Yuan blinked in slight surprise.
Before he could react, a small wooden door next to the alley opened with a creak from the inside.
"Mimi——"
A long-haired woman in a white skirt came out and gently picked up the black cat.
When he left, he smiled politely at Lu Yuan, but when he turned his head, his eyes looked unusually cold.
"Tsk"
Lu Yuan smacked his lips, feeling a little inexplicable emotion in his heart.
He was beyond ordinary people's keen perception, and noticed that whether it was a black cat or a woman, there was an emotion that was almost "numb".
Their emotional fluctuations are gentler than ordinary people, or they are too indifferent.
It gives people a feeling of "seeing through the world of mortals" and "having no interest in life".
"It seems that the so-called 'immortality' in the new era is not necessarily a good thing."
Lu Yuan sighed, walking slowly out of the old alley.
The area where the shuttle was dropped for him seemed to be a nostalgic old neighborhood in a smoke-free city.
There are old-school architectural styles everywhere.
It was very different from what he saw when he looked down from the shuttle, which resembled sailboats, bird's nests, and disks, with neon lights and streamer strips on the edges, full of a sense of futurism and technology.
It was a long walk down the street.
There were not many pedestrians on the road, and everyone seemed lazy. Lu Yuan felt similar to the black cat and woman he had seen in the alley before.
We stopped at an outdoor cafe playing classical blues music.
I ordered something casually, then sat on the chair and played with the electronic watch specially designed for assessment.
The operation is similar to that of a mobile phone, except that when you touch the screen, there will be an enlarged virtual light screen floating on the screen.
It is a product of new world high technology.
Lu Yuan clicked on the screen, and the first thing that appeared was a map of Smoke-free City No. 3.
There is a point of light on the map, representing his current location.
The upper left corner displays the real-time time and a series of numbers - [14:23:55:22]
The numbers keep decreasing, which is obviously the time countdown for this assessment.
The upper right corner is marked - Number of people to be assessed: 179.
The total number of participants in this new blood assessment is 179.
There are dozens of large and small areas of different colors on the map.
These blocks are mainly divided into four types - black, red, blue and green.
The quantity also decreases successively.
There are only three black blocks, eight red blocks, and the combined number of blue and green blocks exceeds fifty.
Lu Yuan tried to click on an oval-shaped black block, and a message immediately popped up in front of his eyes -
[Mission Level: S]
[Mission Details: Unlocked]
[? ? ? ]
Lu Yuan's expression moved slightly, and he clicked on the red, blue and green blocks in sequence.
After receiving information feedback, the blocks in these three colors represent respectively - A-level, B-level and C-level task points. According to the depth of the color, each grade is also divided into three different levels:
A-, A, A+; B-, B, B+ and C-, C, C+ . Among them, both A-level and B-level mission points are shown as unlocked. Only C-level mission points are open to all. —— [Mission level: C-] [Mission goal: rescue trapped hostages] [Mission reward: 100 points (basic)] [Mission details - Mission point terrain map: Click to expand the guard distribution map: Click to expand the guard information ——Ordinary guard: D-level robot, main attack means (7.62MM caliber automatic rifle, type 59 bow grenade.) Leader: Blood Wolf, comprehensive strength assessment D+, punch strength 795kg, speed, good at military fighting skills, proficient in killing techniques . Note: Death row prisoners can be shot] Lu Yuan's eyes paused for a moment on the five words "Death row prisoners, can be shot" at the end of the information, and he suddenly had a deeper understanding of the assessment format of this simulated task. "Since we are using real villains as test questions, the death exemption agreement signed before the test also makes sense." When the coffee was served, Lu Yuan said politely thank you to the waiter with a fake smile. . At the entrance of the coffee shop, the morning news from a smoke-free city was playing on the TV opposite him. It was all boring content about fires, car accidents, lost cats and dogs, and the like. Lu Yuan glanced at it casually and lost interest in paying any more attention. He picked up the warm coffee and took a sip. It tasted so bad that he almost spit it out on the spot. I originally wanted to call the waiter back to argue, but after thinking about the living conditions of these people, it seemed natural, so I gave it up. "New Blood Ranking." Lu Yuan found a new option on his watch and clicked on it to take a look. It was empty inside. It is estimated that someone will have to complete the task before it will appear on this ranking list.
"Tasks, rankings. It feels like you are playing a real online game."
Lu Yuan tapped his fingers on the desktop, his eyes brightening slightly.
"It seems interesting."
At this time, a prompt suddenly popped up on the watch - [You have the latest group messages, please check them in time. 】
"Yo."
Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh, "There are actually players interacting." He immediately clicked in and immediately found that he was in a multi-person chat group.
Born Overlord (Ye Wuqiang): The "1"
message prompt was sent by this "Born Overlord (Ye Wuqiang)".
Lu Yuan saw almost everyone's signature on the "Death and Life Form" and instantly connected it with a certain long-haired young man wearing a black exoskeleton in his memory.
One shot in the head (Xu Chengying): "Idiot?"
Natural Overlord (Ye Wuqiang): "???"
Well, this Xu Chengying should be the punk style who sat directly opposite him in the shuttle without tying his shoes girl.
I didn’t expect the name to sound quite nice, and it’s very different from my painting style.
Lan Dianzhi (He Jun): "Laughing to death."
Immovable as a Mountain (Xiang Shenghao): "(Smile) Hello everyone." The
blue-haired boy and pure martial arts youth who transformed Xinwu.
Lu Yuan thought for a while and sent an expression with interest.
Lu Yuan (Lu Yuan): "(Handsome)!"
Natural Overlord (Ye Wuqiang): "@One Shot in the Head (Xu Chengying), what do you mean?"
One Shot in the Head (Xu Chengying): "(Smile) Literally."
The natural overlord (Ye Wuqiang): "@一杀头(Xu Chengying) where are you? Come and taste my more than five tons of punching power."
A gun shot to the head (Xu Chengying): "Your home Ancestral graves. (Smile)"
Natural Overlord (Ye Wuqiang): "I am XXXX (angry)!"
Immovable as a Mountain (Xiang Shenghao): "Stop making trouble, we are all partners, let's think about how to do the task first (frown)"
Lan Dianzhi (He Jun): "Oyster is right. Now everyone gather at my coordinates and we will discuss the assessment. (Positioning)" The natural
overlord (Ye Wuqiang): "??? Why should I ask yours? Coordinates gathering?"
Lan Dianzhi (He Jun): "Look at the nickname. I am the strongest, and I think I am qualified to lead you."
A headshot (Xu Chengying): "(middle finger)"
Born to be the overlord (Ye Wuqiang) : "(middle finger) (middle finger) (middle finger)"
Lu Yuan stared at the chat group for a while, and the more he looked, the more bored he became.
It was as if he had entered a group of primary school students.
"Is it possible that I really have to complete this assessment with such a group of teammates?"
Lu Yuan shook his head, "Forget it, at worst, we won't be able to work together as a team."
After thinking about it, he simply quit the group chat.
As soon as I logged out, I saw someone actively adding information about his friends.
When I clicked on it, I saw it was "One shot to the head (Xu Chengying)".
Lu Yuan hesitated and clicked accept.
Then I researched the chat channels and found that in addition to group chats, there are also full chat channels.
Someone in the channel is already calling for people to form a team.
They were probably new-blood examiners like him who were dissatisfied with the quality of their initial teammates and were preparing to form another team to complete tasks.
"The degree of freedom is very high. It seems that teamwork is very important in this assessment. It is
estimated that overcoming difficult tasks through teamwork is the result that the Yellow Bear assessors want to see most."
Just like on the way here. , the middle-aged White Bear who introduced the assessment rules emphasized that it was not recommended for them to fight alone.
"But."
Lu Yuan stood up from the chair and gently pushed down the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.
He randomly clicked on the C+ level mission point closest to him and strolled away.
"I can choose not to accept this suggestion."
"Only civilian players like to form teams.
Ranking masters."
"I have always been used to clearing the nightmare dungeon alone."
"Okay! Let's compromise! After half an hour, everyone will Meet at the Dream Bar on the map!"
On a busy street, a long-haired young man wearing a black exoskeleton typed this line on his watch quickly.
finally.
Several people in the chat group had no opinions.
After all, they spent a lot of time bickering and insulting each other.
Half an hour later.
In the east of the smoke-free city, there is a bar full of futuristic and sci-fi style.
The four people who had just been separated on the shuttle reunited.
Wearing an exoskeleton, the long-haired young man who almost occupied the space of two people glanced at the time on his watch and said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's get started." "No one is here yet." The punk
girl
chewed Gum, said with a yawn.
"Yes."
Xiang Shenghao, a dark-skinned young man with a strong physique, also nodded and said, "The one named Lu Yuan in the group chat didn't come." "Is it possible that
all of us should continue to wait for him?"
Lan beside him said The long-haired young man urged impatiently: "Grudge, if you don't start, I will find someone else to form a team." "
Yes, no wait."
The long-haired young man recalled for a moment, and then agreed: "That's a long way to go. I have the impression that there are no traces of technological transformation on his body.
He does not carry any powerful equipment. He is probably following the pure martial arts route.
But look at his size."
The long-haired young man glanced at Xiang Shenghao and said, "I estimate the strength of pure martial arts. It's just average. With
this kind of combined-level combat power, one more than him is not much, and one less than him is not much.
And if he doesn't come, he may have found someone else to form a team.
We will kick him out in the group chat later. Let's discuss it first. Ours."
As he said that, the long-haired young man looked around, looked serious, and said: "Before teamwork, it is necessary to get to know each other.
So I suggest that everyone don't hide things, and first talk about each other. Report their strengths and advantages, and they have a certain number.
I'll go first.
I, Ye Wuqiang, follow the exoskeleton strengthening route, and my punching power can reach the highest level."
"Ding dong!"
Before the long-haired young man finished speaking, something appeared on the table The watches on the four people's hands all made a pleasant sound.
The other three subconsciously lowered their heads to check.
Not long after, someone whispered in surprise: "Ah, someone has already achieved the first pass of the C-level mission!"
