Chapter 15 The Traitor's Cry
At six o'clock in the morning, the city lord's men found the Thinker's head under a dead tree.
Many beasts have already urinated on this mechanical head and marked it.
The Thinker was disheartened and said nothing, allowing these people to take him back.
At this moment, Su Xia was galloping in the vast wilderness.
The free wind of the wilderness blew past him.
Along the way, you can see many traces of human civilization, including rotten roads overgrown with weeds, abandoned and collapsed human towns, and many vehicles with only rusty shells left.
If there had been no war, this area would never have become a wilderness.
The time soon came to seven o'clock in the morning.
"It's time for breakfast."
Su Xia chose a secluded place to hide, handed the body over to the bracelet, and then traveled back to Earth.
After quickly solving the problems of eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, Su Xia returned to bed and traveled back to Blue Star.
This commander's body doesn't feel hungry yet, so keep on going!
At half past nine in the morning, Su Xia finally arrived at the agreed location.
This is still an abandoned town with collapsed houses and ruined civilization. Weeds and vines cover the cement bricks and stones, and some small animals have built their nests here.
"Now we just have to wait for them."
Su Xia looked at the time and was not in a hurry.
The team on the other side was mostly composed of ordinary people, some of whom were injured. They needed to rest, so their movement speed would be much slower.
He entrusted his body to the bracelet and returned to Earth.
In the dormitory, several roommates were still sleeping.
They firmly believed that they could save money on breakfast by sleeping until noon, so they played until late every day.
Su Xia sat on the bed, turned on her computer , and began to browse the world background knowledge of "Looking Up at the Stars".
The game will be officially launched at 8 o'clock tonight, and the current version is called Titanium Era.
The background of the game is very simple.
"The titanium metal that falls to the earth is not hard, but very fragile. It will turn into extremely small particles with a slight pressure. The researchers named these particles 'titanium particles'."
How could such fragile metal protect the psychic liquid from breaking through the atmosphere of the Blue Planet?
Su Xia pursed her lips and continued reading.
"But the alloy mixed with titanium metal is extremely excellent. The mechanical race generally uses titanium alloy."
"Almost all the Titanium metal has been collected by the Mechanical Clan."
"Recently, a human researcher came into contact with pure titanium anions without protection. He felt vaguely uncomfortable, so the mechanical race studied him and found that he actually possessed powers far beyond those of ordinary people..."
“…”
A new evolutionary path has emerged!
Blue Star is about to transition from the "Psionic Age" to the "Titanium Age".
According to the game introduction, at 8 o'clock tonight, all the titanium metals collected by the mechanical race will suddenly explode, turning into tiny titanium particles that will be blown away by the wind to all parts of the world.
These titanium particles will fall on living organisms, coexist with them, and give them extraordinary powers.
Once the organism is killed, some of the titanium particles in its body will be transferred to the organism that killed it.
"Isn't this just killing monsters to gain experience?"
Su Xia gradually understood.
He rubbed his eyes and continued reading.
"Whether you are a player or an NPC, you can choose between the two routes of 'Psychic Evolution' and 'Titanium Particles'. However, psychic energy is very precious and is mostly in the hands of NPCs."
"But Titanium Particles are different. This is an evolutionary path that both NPCs and players can enjoy."
"As long as you go out into the wild and kill monsters, you can obtain the Titanium Particles from the monsters and achieve evolution."
Titanium particles have another convenience.
It does not need to go through layers of purification like spiritual energy, it can be absorbed directly.
"Well, it's becoming more and more like experience points."
Su Xia thought about it.
It seems that psychic power is the high-end route, while titanium particles are the civilian route?
Although the two paths do not conflict and both can be taken, civilians simply cannot get psychic potions.
"So, ordinary people in my team who don't have psychic powers can also evolve through Titanium Particles. They just need to kill some wild monsters..."
"But if two people have the same level of Titanium particles, the one with psychic power will definitely be stronger."
Although the protagonist of the new era is "titanium particles", Su Xia has not reduced his emphasis on psychic power.
He dragged the mouse and scrolled down to read the rest of the information bit by bit.
Before I knew it, it was already half past ten in the morning.
…
Blue Star, the wilderness area southwest of Feijia City.
Everyone finally arrived at the agreed abandoned town and saw Su Xia waiting for them.
Liu An immediately waved his hand and shouted happily: "Commander, we are here!"
At this time, Su Xia on Earth suddenly felt the bracelet tremble.
He immediately raised his arm to check the latest news.
[Your team has arrived at the agreed location. Do you want to travel back to Blue Star? ]
【yes!】
A familiar electric shock came immediately, Su Xia's eyes darkened, and she fell back on the bed.
When I opened my eyes again, I saw people walking towards me.
No one is missing, all are still alive.
However, the injured people were a little weak and their injuries had worsened, so they needed to go to the oasis camp to see a doctor as soon as possible.
"Commander, look what we found?" Liu An excitedly held a light gray radio and placed it in front of Su Xia.
"Radio? A solar-powered radio?" Su Xia frowned . "Where did you get it from?"
"We found this in a room that hadn't collapsed yet, when we were passing through an abandoned town."
"Have you checked it?"
"Don't worry, this radio is absolutely safe."
Liu An pressed the switch and then turned the button to debug the channel.
Some human voices mixed with electronic noises made it quite noisy.
After asking, we learned that the radio was broken and was repaired by a young man in the team.
This young man's name is "Wang Xiaochui", a level 0.9 psychic creature with the psychic talent of "mechanical affinity". He is good at repairing and manufacturing various mechanical gadgets.
Soon, Liu An received the information they wanted to hear through the radio.
"Commander, listen, Coral City and Waste Armor City are both looking for us, and these wanted notices are for everyone, including wandering mercenaries in the wilderness."
"Well, it looks like we'll have to face some troubles next."
Su Xia sat casually on a rock, listening quietly to the sound coming from the radio.
Everyone sat down one by one and took a short rest.
The wanted message was played on a loop and could be heard every once in a while.
[The evil commander Beifeng escaped from prison...]
[He is evil and extremely cruel, crazy and violent...]
[He likes to consume fresh human blood...]
[He still doesn't like women, he's only interested in certain beasts...]
Su Xia: “???”
This publicity is a bit excessive.
[…The Lord of Waste Armor City offers a bonus of one million and a box of psychic potion, and the Lord of Coral City offers an additional bonus of one and a half million…]
The bonus was quite generous, and Su Xia even wanted to cut off his own head and send it to them.
Following this wanted notice, there is a personal statement.
It turned out to be that traitor Zhao Si's.
[My name is Zhao Si. I used to be a member of the evil Beifeng organization. I was young and ignorant at that time, so I was deceived into joining this evil organization. After joining, I found that everyone in this organization was a villain...]
[I suffered inhumane torture in there, and every day was like living in hell...]
[I could only eat half a steamed bun for each meal and was forced to do a lot of labor. They often asked me to pick cotton.]
