Chapter 142 Chang Rui's Distress
"Um?"
Sijidao pushed the bowl of instant noodles aside and leaned closer to take a look at the screen.
The other person's profile picture looked like a doctor, and he almost thought it was the director of a hospital.
He thought he didn't have any serious illness.
【Agree to the request】
Sijidao clicked the button and added the other party as a friend.
After waiting for a while, the other party did not send any message.
Sijidao didn't think too much about it. He took the bowl of instant noodles in front of him and started his life of eating instant noodles and drinking cola, while browsing some interesting stories on the forum.
At this point in time, the most discussed topic in the gaming forum is naturally "The Death of the Masked Stranger".
“Good death!”
Sijidao was in a good mood. Although he had never had a head-on confrontation with the masked man, the two sides had different positions.
He just couldn't stand those who kept shouting "for the human race" all day long.
The more people like this there are, the more dangerous Sijidao will feel his position is.
"What a bunch of idiots, they insisted on resisting. They even resisted the idiot Zhao Si. God knows what the next boss will be like!"
After spending a few days in the Coral City management, Sijidao also gained access to some gossip.
He basically understood...
Zhao Si was not recovering from a serious injury, but he would never come back.
But he had finally established a good relationship with Zhao Si during this period and had figured out some of Zhao Si's behaviors and hobbies.
"Fortunately, that rubbish Qi Lang is still the city lord."
Sijidao was very fortunate that with Qi Lang around, the overall policy of Coral City would not change, and he could continue to sit in this position and reap some benefits.
In the game forum, in addition to the news about the masked monster, there is another piece of news that is also quite popular.
[Oasis Camp Relocation]
If you click on several posts about this news, you can see similar screenshots.
As one of the most popular novice maps since the launch of the server, many players are keeping an eye on the situation in the Oasis Camp.
"Oasis Camp... Lin Shan, the one who challenged me last time, is from Oasis Camp!"
Sijidao remembered it very clearly; it was a very humiliating day for him.
He will never forget this kind of thing.
When he holds great power and develops thoroughly in the future, he will definitely find the location of the oasis camp, and then let the player named Lin Shan see with his own eyes his NPC mentor, friends, and others being tragically killed in the artillery fire of Coral City.
In addition to these two pieces of news, another popular piece of news is that "The Soul Tribe joins the Coral City Undead Management Department."
This Soul Tribe is the union that Sijidao has recruited.
During its heyday, this guild had several thousand registered members in another game. Although it is now just a shell, it is still somewhat famous and quickly gathered more than two hundred people after entering the game.
For a union like this, winning over one more member will give you more cards.
"That ridiculous Bikini Bottom team still wants to fight me." Sijidao searched Bikini Bottom's posts, "A bunch of poor bastards , without financial support, without the support of a big guild, I will beat them to death sooner or later!"
Just then, he suddenly received a private message.
It was sent by the "director of the mental hospital".
Click on Four Seasons Rice immediately.
The other party didn't say anything, not even a greeting, and only sent a screenshot of the game.
【Picture.jpg】
The location of this game screenshot seems to be in a forest.
The surroundings are lush and green, with abundant water plants and swaying green shadows. If you zoom in on the picture, you can see many small animals in the distance.
It looks like just a simple landscape photo.
Sijidao was puzzled. While eating instant noodles, he typed on the keyboard: "What do you mean? Robot?"
He suspected that this guy was one of those robot accounts that cast a wide net on the forum and was specifically designed to defraud money.
Veteran game players like Sijidao are well aware of various game scams.
He is very cautious and never clicks on any unfamiliar links.
But soon, the other party replied: "This is the wilderness area between Coral City and Waste Armor City. It is very hidden."
"Is your beginner map here?"
Sijidao's heart moved and his ten fingers danced on the keyboard.
In the novice maps in the wilderness, many of them are for resistance organizations.
Of course, there are also some private organizations sent out by the wealthy in the city to engage in mining, quarrying, sand panning and other activities, as well as some bases for wandering mercenary organizations.
"No, my novice map is far away from here." The other party replied, "Due to the arrival of players, Dragon City sent NPCs to the wilderness and asked various resistance organizations to evacuate their original bases... How about it, is this plot familiar to you?"
"Haha, we're actually from the same field!"
Sijidao was delighted and understood what the other party meant.
It was obvious that the other party had also mixed into the NPC team and successfully evacuated with the NPC.
Sijidao immediately asked, "Is this picture the location of your new base?"
The other party denied: "No."
"How much do you want?"
Sijidao thought that the other party wanted to wait for a good price, so he didn't plan to beat around the bush and asked directly about the price.
Now he has the support of Coral City. Although he is still a pauper, the funds provided by Coral City to his department are not small.
As long as he had a suitable reason, he could embezzle department funds.
And the most appropriate reason is...
News about purchasing a resistance organization’s base!
But what he didn't expect was that the other party was going to sell out more than just one resistance organization's base.
This "director of the mental hospital" was one of the players that Su Xia pointed out in the reception hall last time. His name was Chang Rui, and he was the new disciple of that old fellow Shi Sishi.
That old guy was not only stubborn, but also protective. He didn't believe at all that this disciple was an undead.
It was a pity that Su Xia's martial virtue was not strong enough at that time, otherwise he would definitely "convince people with virtue" first, and then "convince people with reason", and persuade Shi Sishi to abandon this disciple named Chang Rui.
Chang Rui replied to Sijidao: "Let's not talk about the money first. We are still on the way to transfer. I took the picture just now in the evening."
"Why are you still transferring?"
Sijidao was puzzled. After such a long time, the transfer should have been completed long ago.
Chang Rui told the truth: "An important . He is an old man. He wants to gather all the resistance organizations in the wilderness of this area together to form a joint organization. I have been following him around during this period and I don't even have time to level up."
"A joint organization?"
Sijidao was shocked all over and quickly pushed the bowl of instant noodles away and became serious.
Without even bothering to wipe the grease off his mouth, he immediately asked, "How many organizations are planning to unite now?"
"Nineteen."
As a disciple of Shi Sishi, Chang Rui knew all the news clearly.
He sent a few more game screenshots, all of which were taken randomly in the past few days.
In the picture, you can see members of the organization packing supplies in the base, as well as the long transfer team in the jungle.
These screenshots are enough to prove the authenticity of his message.
When seeing these pictures, Sijidao's eyes widened, and he wished he could be at the scene in the pictures.
"Are all these 19 organizations going to gather in one base?" Sijidao typed these words with trembling hands and an excited heart.
Just by taking down a Scimitar organization, he has achieved his current position.
And there are a total of nineteen organizations over there...
If he could accomplish this, his status in Coral City would surely skyrocket, and he might even be able to take over Zhao Si's former position!
"Yes, I'm heading towards that base now." Chang Rui replied, "We will probably reach the base of the joint organization by tomorrow evening."
"Do you have a road map?"
"It's being drawn, don't worry."
The wilderness is too vast, and Chang Rui and others cannot find an accurate route at present.
From his current location to Coral City, the map in between is all fog, and various high-level monsters and mercenary organizations are rampant in the fog.
If you are unlucky and get caught by wandering mercenaries, you will end up in a terrible situation.
Now many wandering mercenary organizations also know the characteristics of players.
The players who were caught by them almost never had a good ending. For details, you can refer to the players who were repeatedly tortured and killed in "Luoxing Town" at that time.
"Why did you choose me?" Although Sijidao was excited, he did not let his guard down.
When Chang Rui approached him, he naturally regarded him as an intermediary.
But Chang Rui can act on his own, just as Sijidao once did.
Although the wilderness is vast, as long as you act carefully and slowly look for opportunities, you can always find a safe route to Coral City.
By then, Chang Rui, who offered 19 resistance organizations' bases, would definitely have a higher status than Sijidao himself, so there would be no need to go to the trouble of looking for him.
"This is a complicated matter. I wanted to act on my own."
Chang Rui was also helpless and gave an explanation.
"But not long ago, the old guy from Dragon City took us to the Oasis Camp, which is the novice map that is very popular on the forum now."
"Oasis Camp?" Sijidao licked the corner of his mouth and his eyes lit up. He didn't expect there would be such a pleasant surprise.
"Yes, that camp."
Chang Rui was very distressed and explained: "Everything was going smoothly. Those NPCs had no way to identify players and natives, but an accident happened."
"What accident?"
"It's the NPC named Commander Beifeng in the promotional video. He can actually tell that I'm a player!"
"ha?"
Sijidao was stunned. This was no small matter.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for NPCs to have this ability.
Chang Rui continued, "Although the old man in Longcheng and other NPCs said they didn't believe what Commander Beifeng said, the problem still arises..."
"how?"
"I feel like many NPCs in the team are a little more wary of me."
Chang Rui is not a fool and can sense the implication of alienation and surveillance.
Besides him, two other guys were also under surveillance.
This makes them very annoyed because these resistance organizations are very cautious, and who knows how long this surveillance will last?
Once they disappear, the people in the joint organization will become alert and will most likely move their base.
So now he can only contact Sijidao.
Sijidao replied: "I understand."
Chang Rui was not able to move, so he came to him to ask if there was any solution.
He had a map of a large area outside Coral City, and the other party also had a rough route map. By comparing the two, he might get some unexpected results.
Chang Rui also took a fancy to the player human resources that he could mobilize.
"Don't worry, let's talk more and exchange information."
Sijidao suppressed his excitement and patiently typed this line.
At this moment, the president of the Soul Tribe Union suddenly sent him a message.
The president’s game name is “Master Lu”. He seems to be a rich young man with a wealthy family. He plays games just for comfort.
Master Lu asked: "Si Ji Dao, I have already joined your organization with my union. When can you ask the Coral City officials to customize formal uniforms for my brothers in the union?"
Sijidao immediately replied: "There are still some funding issues..."
"How much do you want? Is two million enough? If not, I can add more."
“Ah, this…”
Sijidao's ten fingers trembled, and his view of money was almost overturned.
He asked cautiously, "Brother Lu, if you just put two million into the game, won't your family have any objections?"
"It's only two million, what's your opinion?"
