On the empty table in the laboratory, Jiang Yong devoured the food.
A night of long-distance running takes a huge toll on physical and mental energy.
Even though the fried rice was already a little lumpy after being left out for a while, he didn't even notice it. He dug in half the bowl in just a few strokes and choked.
"The water is on the ground. If you want to drink it, take it yourself," Sumo said naturally, pointing to the bottled water under the table.
"Thank you...Thank you, County Magistrate Su." Jiang Yong laughed awkwardly, quickly lowered his head, picked up a bottle of water, and drank it all.
Finally, he carefully placed the bottle in the corner, looking cautious.
When he peeked by the window before, he felt that County Magistrate Su was a bit strange.
It is completely different from ordinary managers who immediately make money or are eager to make some political achievements after taking office.
Ever since he discovered and followed Su Youzong in the tavern, as long as he could see him secretly, he could basically only see him staying in the house every day and concentrating on knocking on the iron block, often knocking on it.
a few hours.
At first, Jiang Yong was secretly suspicious in his heart, thinking it was just out of interest or simply some kind of mission.
But three days, five days, or even a week, after a long time.
He was convinced!
In addition, I personally used the helmet made by County Magistrate Su last night and felt the powerful effectiveness of the helmet.
Today we have witnessed Huozhong Street being vigorously developed, and Baoyu County has completely changed from the previous two styles.
Jiang Yong continued to cook, and glanced at Sumo who was sitting on the stool meditating, his mood becoming more and more complicated.
"Magistrate Su, I've finished eating"
After packing the bag and placing it with the empty water bottle, Jiang Yong stood up and returned to his previous position obediently.
"Tell me, how did you feel when you used the Sun Chaser helmet last night?"
"Very strong!" Jiang Yong commented subconsciously at first, and then realized that Su Mo didn't want to hear the praise. His expression became solemn: "If the adults hadn't stopped, the auxiliary function of the helmet would be very powerful, enough to make everyone
Ordinary people who have been trained can greatly improve their combat effectiveness, especially the defensive auxiliary, which can be said to be invincible in night battles."
"However, the fact that the helmet has a battery limit is very fatal. If I could have lasted for a while last night, maybe I could have run away with the helmet."
"What else?" Sumo found that Jiang Yong's honesty was a bit cute, so he raised his head and smiled.
"Also, I haven't tested the attack auxiliary, so I don't know the effect. The other two are in use."
Immediately, while Jiang Yong was deep in thought, he slowly talked about his various feelings when using it last night.
As the first person to bring it to the battlefield for experimentation, every time he mentioned some minor shortcomings, Somo couldn't help but nod.
The hardware of the Zhuri helmet was developed by him, and there is no problem with the wearing experience except for the battery.
But in terms of software, we used the experimental version that Sun Quan had developed in his spare time.
Although Sun Quan stands on the shoulders of giants and integrated many advanced combat templates published in the wasteland into this experimental version, there are still many loopholes and logical errors.
However, there is still a lot of room for improvement as long as Fenglong gets a version of the auxiliary system that is actually used on military equipment later.
"Looking at you, have you been on the battlefield before?"
"Well, I used to be a frontline soldier in the United Democratic Republic for a period of time, and then..."
"Later it was forcibly destroyed." Seeing Sumo showing a trace of doubt, Bao Lei next to him took up the topic: "The United Democratic Republic was once a large territory where adventurers gathered. The number of people at its peak was close to one million, but because of this large
There are basically no ordinary people engaged in production in the United Democratic Republic. They are all adventurers with no fixed abode, so their organizational structure is actually very loose and only serves as a place for all adventurers to transfer their tasks and rest."
"Whenever a major disaster strikes, most adventurers who go out will come back here to exchange experiences and exchange goods. When the disaster is over, they will take on new tasks and embark on a journey, and the cycle starts again."
"As for why it was destroyed?" After touching in his pocket, Bao Lei took out Jiang Yong's adventurer terminal: "First, because these adventurers are very arrogant and dare to take on any mission without considering the consequences.
The second reason is that their technology for producing this kind of terminal is known as the best settlement solution in the wasteland, and has attracted the covetousness of most large territories."
"Terminal?" Seeing the square object Bao Lei took out, Somo looked slightly familiar.
Adventurers walking in the wasteland have already formed a certain scale by relying on radio since the opening of the New World. This is not a new thing.
But the terminal.
"let me see."
After receiving the cube device handed over by Bao Lei, Sumo held it in his hand and fumbled with it for a while. He was suddenly shocked and somewhat enlightened.
It is almost identical to the adventurer terminal that was snatched back from the Demon Soul Tribe before.
The two have the same name, the same appearance, and even the key settings are quite different.
Except for the numbers engraved in the upper right corner, Jiang Yong's one is 1, and the one he got before is 10.
After groping for a while, Sumo found no other differences.
"What does this number represent?" he asked after pondering for a while.
"Mr. Su, this number represents both my adventurer level and the version level of this terminal." Jiang Yong replied respectfully: "Every adventurer who has passed the internship stage is eligible to spend 1,000 points to purchase a terminal."
The first-level terminal is used as a liaison to receive tasks. According to the number and performance of tasks completed, the adventurer's level is divided into levels one to ten, with level one being the lowest and level ten being the highest."
"For example, my current adventurer level is level one, and I can only buy this level of terminal. When I reach level two, I can contact the adventurer headquarters and spend points to replace it with a level two terminal, which will have more functions.
use."
"It's so clear." Sumo remained calm and continued to ask in a deep voice: "What are the functions of advanced terminals?"
"The functions of the advanced terminal are very powerful. Now my first-level terminal can only send and receive information and receive tasks, but as long as I can upgrade to the second-level terminal, I will have a powerful function, storage space!"
"He can directly replace the space charged for on the game panel without charging any points."
"At level three, there will be an additional vehicle module. You can pay points in advance to purchase services, and let the adventurer headquarters put this vehicle into the adventurer terminal. When using it, you can take it out from the storage space.
Average and very convenient”
Speaking of the functions of these advanced adventurer terminals, Jiang Yong's eyes lit up and he became excited.
"In fact, there is not much difference between level three and level seven, and the function is just to make a fuss about storage space."
"But when it reaches level seven or above, the terminal will undergo qualitative changes. It will virtualize large-scale buildings and can collect and release buildings at any time, regardless of the restrictions of terrain. It is this function that has attracted the covetousness of those large territories, resulting in
to avoid the tragedy that followed.”
"He's right, my adventurer terminal is level seven." Taking out his pocket again, Bao Lei took out his level seven terminal in front of Jiang Yong.
"To upgrade and replace a terminal above level seven, you must complete three epic tasks and spend a huge amount of points."
"If you can't crack mass production, it's not cost-effective for so-called building virtualization."
After speaking, Bao Lei handed over his terminal.
Sumo held it in his hand and compared it, and found that the appearance of the two terminals was exactly the same, except that the number changed from 1 to 7.
"Did you buy this from the Adventurers Guild too?"
"Of course not. Low-level adventurer terminals don't have the certification of game panels." Bao Lei bared his white teeth and said the most ferocious words with the weakest temperament: "There were many brave adventurers who wanted to come to us before.
We were doing missions in the territory. At that time, our Heavenly Sword Regiment happened to be on duty to patrol the security of the territory. We probably killed dozens of people above level seven. If their terminals above level seven had no password function, we wouldn’t be able to crack it. I got it now
The terminal is at least level nine."
"What, are you from the Heavenly Sword Group?"
When Bao Lei took out the seventh-level terminal, although Jiang Yong was shocked in his heart, he could still maintain calm on the surface.
But after hearing the words Tianjian Tuan, his whole body shook violently, and his legs and feet became weak and he fell to the ground.
In fact, this group of adventurers has been able to continue from the wasteland for one year until now.
The main reason why the headquarters was not disbanded even after it was destroyed was that the information transfer speed between them was extremely fast.
Relying on this terminal, they can quickly gather a large number of manpower after discovering opportunities.
And when danger is discovered, they can evacuate quickly at a speed no slower than the assembly.
And in the restricted area where all the information over the years is combined.
Heavenly Sword Group.
These three words have never fallen out of the top ten!
The Adventurer Terminal once had a list function. Even when the United Democratic Republic was destroyed, this function was not cancelled.
But after that battle that year, nearly a hundred people were arrested and killed in the Tianyuan Territory after dozens of high-level adventurers failed to encircle and suppress them in large territories.
Their self-proclaimed means of hiding and escaping are like children making trouble in front of the Sky Sword Group.
This feature disappeared from everyone’s terminals overnight.
It was like a loud slap. To this day, mentioning the words "Sky Sword Regiment" is still every adventurer's nightmare!
"What? You seem weird?"
"Coco." Looking at Su Mo and then at Bao Lei, Jiang Yong's eyes suddenly widened: "Isn't it possible that the person who chased me last night was also from the Tianjian Regiment?"
"Congratulations, you got the answer right"
"Should I give you an award?" Bao Lei stepped forward and squatted down on top of him. Jiang Yong was so frightened that he trembled and sat completely on the ground.
However.
The next second, I noticed that Sumo's face was full of smiles.
Jiang Yong came to his senses again and muttered to himself with a dumb look on his face: "Oh my god, I actually survived in the hands of the Heavenly Sword Regiment?"
Just surviving was something that not even a former ninth-level adventurer could do.
But when I think about it, I was able to escape successfully despite the firepower of dozens of people last night.
After Jiang Yong's face changed back and forth, he finally asked in a low voice unwillingly: "My lord, is it you who let go, or me?"
"It's your size. It's County Magistrate Su's awesome helmet."
After giving Jiang Yong a hard knock on the head, Bao Lei stood up, feeling a little speechless.
In last night's test plan, except for some specific guidance actions, most of the time the warriors still didn't let go.
It's a pity that the bullets aimed at the helmet from a long distance were completely predicted, and there was no way they could hit a single shot.
Only at about 200 meters, when the time from the bullet flying out to hitting the object is less than 0.3 seconds, does the helmet's prediction ability drop significantly.
"Okay, stop scaring him."
"Jiang Yong, the task given to you by Wuya Mansion last night was just to test my intentions. What's next?" Sumo waved his hand, put the two terminals in his hands on the table and said naturally.
"Follow-up?" Jiang Yong looked serious, and quickly stood up from the ground: "They gave me thirty days to confirm your intention, if you are willing. Well, I mean if you agree to the intention, they will
Will give me the second phase of the task"
After realizing that the Heavenly Sword Regiment had come to protect an ordinary local administrator, Jiang Yong had already realized that something was fishy.
He vaguely felt that he had been involved in a whirlpool. One wrong choice might result in being shattered to pieces.
But at the same time, a sense of opportunity seems to accompany it.
If last night's theft was part of Magistrate Su's plan, and his role was only to serve as a tester, then the theft could be big or small, and there would still be a chance of meritorious deeds.
In addition, County Magistrate Su seems to be very interested in the cooperation with Wuya Mansion, which reminds me of the friction between the two large territories in the past.
A glint flashed in Jiang Yong's eyes, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "County Magistrate Su, I can feel that they probably didn't know what happened in Baoyu County last night, nor did they know that the Heavenly Sword Regiment was by your side, and
This helmet"
"You can say what you want, no need to hide it." Realizing that Jiang Yong was somewhat aware of what he wanted to do, Sumo frowned slightly, and then quickly dispersed.
"As people say, although your reputation is now at its peak among us, everyone knows that a good official has come to Baoyu County, but externally, we can also create another opposite image. If you want to take advantage of this
This impression can be used to smear them, get some money from them, or extend the trade route to the west, I can help."
"Get some money?" Before Su Mo could say anything, Bao Lei laughed angrily: "How much can we get? Fifty million, one hundred million? How much money can the poor Wuya Mansion provide? I'm afraid it can be a few hundred million.
It made their hearts bleed.”
"That" also wanted to show his value, but after the words came out, Jiang Yong hesitated.
The people in Wuya Mansion said grandly last night that if you are short of money, you will always have money. If you want power, you will be able to get a lot of achievements right away. Even if you are greedy for beauty, you will be able to get hundreds of beauties.
But even after observing Somo's daily life and behavior for more than half a month, he still couldn't figure out what Somo was thinking about.
Scientific research? Trading points? Political achievements? Or personal force?
Such a comprehensive and all-round development makes it impossible for people to grasp Sumo's true preferences and pursuits, let alone start.
"Do you have any family?" Sumo suddenly asked.
Jiang Yong shook his head subconsciously, and then said with difficulty: "I have a wife and a son in the Xingluo territory."
The Xingluo Territory is located in the northern part of the New World, adjacent to the "Northland" among the three major territories. It ranks 41st in the New World, only a little lower than the Tianyuan Territory.
Ever since the Great United Democratic Republic was destroyed a few years ago and his family escaped in embarrassment, he resolutely gave all his money to his wife and bought the best identity he could.
As for him, he was used to the excitement of adventurers walking on the edge of a knife, and he no longer wanted to live an ordinary life.
Only during the Chinese New Year every year, he would go to the Xingluo Territory and live with his family for a short period of time.
Unlike Ge Jianan, his family is not his weakness, but it is his only safe haven in the wasteland.
"I watched the test last night and I'm quite satisfied with your ability."
"I asked Bao Lei to invite your wife to our Baoyu County to enjoy the blessings. Is there no problem?"
"No problem," Jiang Yong swallowed, his Adam's apple bubbling up and down, but in the end he didn't dare to say any words of rejection.
"Very good, I also want to remind you that when you put on the helmet last night, I also helped you implant a micro-receiver."
"His function is also very simple."
Picking up the small silver cube on the table, Somo pressed the side slightly.
In an instant, the unbearable severe pain suddenly appeared. Tears burst out of Jiang Yong's eyes in pain, and his back was so straight that it bent into a shrimp shape.
"You can try to dismantle it, but I'm not sure your head will explode into popcorn."
"Listen to me and satisfy me. I will help you dismantle it in a year and let you live a good life that you never dared to imagine before."
"Thank you, County Magistrate Xiesu, for not killing me." After three seconds, the pain gradually disappeared.
Immediately, Jiang Yong knelt on his knees, not daring to have any other thoughts in his heart.
Although Magistrate Su was never really angry from the beginning to the end despite his kindness and power, it was such plain words that made people feel chilly in their hearts.
It's not that he has no pursuit, but that what he pursues is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Wuya Mansion. I'm afraid I'm going to be in bad luck this time!
