Player Reload-Chapter 668 - 576: Rainfall
The operation of the floating engine was silent as it carried Li Cheng descending slowly and landed lightly on the water without causing any ripples (actually, it was to avoid knocking off the bone decorations on his body).
"The life-saving grace of the senior, we will never forget."
Ada, reduced to just a head, spoke through the broadcaster in her throat. To show respect, she even projected her three-dimensional image with her eyeball and bowed to the Skull Knight,
"The Whale Song Guild will always remember your kindness."
"Us too."
Wu Quan and Alisi hastily said, barely regaining some mobility, "The Special Affairs Bureau, Mechanical War Thunder, Saladin’s Eagle, the Witch Alliance... will always remember your kindness."
The Square Robot Servant high up in the sky couldn’t sit still, "How dare they use our lines?!" "This is shameless plagiarism!"
Now, whenever Li Cheng hears the word "kindness," he gets a bit of PTSD, but to maintain the demeanor of a master, he stayed in his cool stance, with his back to Wu Quan and the others, speaking flatly: "You have completed your task, right."
"Completed."
Wu Quan nodded, confirming without a doubt in the task log.
Li Cheng asked again, "The curse on your back?"
As the main body of the Old House of the Republic dissipated, the red curse marks on the backs of Wu Quan and others also greatly diminished, losing abnormal attributes and no longer generating evil spirits.
Yet, those strands of red fungal filaments still existed, rooted in the dermis, appearing to risk infiltrating the blood vessels.
Wu Quan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It’s just some proliferating hair, not a big problem. The Special Affairs Bureau has cosmetic and deep medical services."
"That’s true."
Customer service Xiao Yuan on the other end of the Eyes Communication Headset added, "The Special Affairs Bureau once aided an extraordinary life from the Script World, known as ’Source Heavenly Master.’
His late years were obscure, covered with red hair. After receiving help, he finally recovered his divine wisdom, gradually becoming humanoid, and now works part-time as a mascot in a theme park, playing with kids every day."
?
Your Special Affairs Bureau really likes to abduct bosses from the Script World, huh.
I’m starting to suspect that the rumor about the Special Affairs Bureau’s collection fetish, wanting to gather every hair color and eye color of script bosses is true.
During the conversation, Ada temporarily generated limbs using green data to wake the unconscious Radiation Addiction Warriors, 808bass, and others.
These people were deeply trapped in despair before fainting, thinking they were surely doomed, never expecting to survive, they immediately expressed endless gratitude to Tung BoneKnight, saying they would erect longevity plaques for him at home.
Li Cheng maintained his cool stance, indifferent, watching as the Radiation Addiction Warriors, Alisi, and others returned to the real world one by one and vanished, he calmly said, "I am leaving, you should retreat soon, this place is not safe."
"Mr. Tung Bone, please wait."
Customer service Xiao Yuan suddenly said, "Can we have a talk?"
All players except Wu Quan had exited, and there was no intention to place hydroelectric generators or radios to attempt marking the current location.
Wisely, Wu Quan placed the Eyes Communication Headset on a floating log, and drove the submarine a hundred meters back, put on Noise Cancelling Headphones, and started fishing with a fishing rod.
"What do you want to say."
Li Cheng’s tone was calm, but he was actually alert. He didn’t know what the Special Affairs Bureau had discussed with the Skull Knight.
"The matter you reminded us of earlier, to pay attention to the Divine Monster Tower, we rechecked it,"
Customer service Xiao Yuan, in a tone purely representing the Special Affairs Bureau and not mixed with personal emotions, said to Tung Bone, "The [Desert Sea Big Number Instrument] predicts that the probability of divine calamities manifesting soon has indeed approached the expected value."
Li Cheng felt a stirring in his heart. The so-called [Desert Sea Big Number Instrument], like the Special Affairs Bureau’s collection fetish for script bosses, was also a rumor.
It’s rumored to be a supercomputer based on unknown principles, able to automatically collect, integrate, and analyze all known information, and output prediction results for the next few months or years.
From marital consultation, mobile game gacha draws, movie box office predictions,
To stock market fluctuations, international situation, human scientific progress,
The prediction accuracy reaches as high as 60%-80%.
Considering it also covers the perpetually chaotic A stocks, this accuracy is already quite excellent. Using it for quantitative trading can easily outdo Buffett.
Combined with rumors of the [Desert Sea Big Number Instrument] being located in the Star Simulation Corridor, starting this machine could consume astronomical amounts of energy. Otherwise, those Special Affairs Bureau logistics and scientific research personnel would surely use the equipment to make all sorts of trivial predictions in their spare time,
For example, whether archaeologists millions of years from now would consider the wallpaper in an otaku’s room to be murals, figures to be burial items, and body pillows to be human figurines, etc.
As for this Divine Monster Tower, according to bits and pieces on the forum, it should be a region frequented by numerous divine calamities.
"..."
Tung BoneKnight remained silent, fortunately, customer service Xiao Yuan took it as a default response and continued, "Further speculation suggests the next manifested divine calamities may include Death Light, Mo Sha, Blood Moon, and Insect Master."
Bang!
Li Cheng hadn’t responded yet, and up in the air, Gray Rain shuddered as her elbow accidentally hit the control lever, causing the Forbidden Army War Car to back up and collide with another, creating a loud noise.
Gray Rain gasped, the Ten Thousand Eyes Headphone could collect sound, surely they heard that, what should she do?
"Release the oil, release the oil!"
At a critical moment, she had a brainwave and issued the command in the communication channel. All Forbidden Army War Cars opened their fuel tanks simultaneously, even the Square and Cylinder Machine Servants extended from the carriages, releasing mechanical lubricating oil outside. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Fuel shattered by the air during its fall, like raindrops, sprinkled over the swamp a few kilometers away from the center of the battlefield.
This masked the noise of the Forbidden Army Tanks colliding as dull thunder.
"It’s raining."
Li Cheng spoke deeply, reached out his hand, and squeezed heavily towards the void.
At this moment, the high-altitude oil release was complete, the raindrops stopped, seemingly as if the Skull Knight had stopped the rain from falling out of thin air.
Customer service Xiao Yuan solemnly said, "We will continue to monitor the real world, maintaining the balance of the two realms."
"Hope so."
Li Cheng dared not stay longer, activating the floating engine to fly over the water surface of the swamp, heading forward, circling behind a low hill, then immediately hiding to observe from afar.
Wu Quan picked up the Ten Thousand Eyes Headphone, put away the submarine, and vanished from the spot.
Not long after he left, a large number of fish poisoned by fuel floated up on the swamp’s surface in the distance, their bellies facing up, fish eyes reflecting eerie light.
"Phew, thank goodness."
Li Cheng, who could nearly no longer keep his composure, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. If Wu Quan and customer service Xiao Yuan hadn’t left, he would have had to claim, "Hurry up and leave, I want to see skimpy photos."
At this moment, Gray Rain jumped off the Forbidden Army War Car, free-falling all the way down, and used the [Subtle Spirit Raid] skill to slow down, landing like a hero, she brushed her hair and asked, "What did the Special Affairs Bureau say about the possible appearance of Insect Lord Demon?"
"The prediction accuracy of the [Desert Sea Big Number Instrument] is around 60-70%, not necessarily accurate."
Li Cheng briefly explained. He just appeared as the Skull Knight, so naturally, he couldn’t go back to the Special Affairs Bureau for more information, "If it’s about the Insect Master, why not ask the guilds?"
