Chapter 273: The end of the pharmacy?
Something happened at the pharmacy!
This news, like a hurricane, instantly swept through all discussion groups.
In the game, one of the largest player organizations, the Bikini Bottom Team, started out with the help of this pharmacy.
Without a large amount of cheap potions, Bikini Bottom would have no advantage over other player teams, let alone suppress the old online game guild in the recent friendly exchanges.
"Bikki Bottom is sending it?"
"This is a good thing. That group of people have been hindering our actions all day long. They have recently fought several times in the wilderness and have been extremely arrogant... The game system must be fed up with them using bugs to farm potions, right?"
"Good news! Great news!"
“…”
There were more and more discussions, and some people applauded and cheered.
Some people were worried and spoke up for Bikini Bottom.
Not long ago, the large-scale event "Coral Expedition" launched by Sijidao caused players to split into two factions.
One group of players stood on the side of Sijidao, joined the event, became members of the Coral City Mechanical Tribe's outer legion, and have been exploring the wilderness, trying to get enough rewards in the missions.
Another group of players felt that the human counterattack was the main storyline of the game and were unwilling to join the expedition, especially those players whose birth maps were in the wilderness resistance organization's base. They united to form a resistance alliance.
Su Xia has been very busy recently and has not had time to pay attention to the players in the game.
What he didn't know was that, under the leadership of several of his roommates, the player resistance organization alliance was actually formed, and even several online meetings were organized.
There are more than three-digit player teams joining the alliance, and the total number of players exceeds 100,000. It is extremely large and has amazing combat effectiveness.
They shouted slogans like "For the Alliance" and were ambitious and powerful.
Recently, the Resistance Alliance and the Coral City Extra-player Corps have fought several battles in the suburbs and wilderness.
In name it's a "friendly exchange", but in reality it's like my brain is about to be beaten out.
[The first game with tens of thousands of people fighting]
[The bloody battle never ends! Live broadcast of battlefield movements for you 24 hours a day! ]
[The second battlefield is opened! The number of participants on both sides exceeds 50,000, and the server is still tenacious! ]
【……】
During this period, all major gaming forums were flooded with the thrilling melee in "Look Up at the Stars", and many gaming anchors were wandering around the battlefield 24 hours a day as if they were injected with chicken blood.
Long swords, cold arrows, stone axes, halberds, etc., all kinds of cold weapons were flying on the battlefield, blood was splattered, shouts of killing were deafening, corpses were everywhere, the earth was dyed red, and some people were hacked to death as soon as they were resurrected, and they couldn't even run away from the battlefield.
There were also people who took hot weapons obtained from special channels, such as semi-automatic pistols, assault rifles, submachine guns, etc., and killed indiscriminately among the players.
But facing players who can revive infinitely, even ordinary hot weapons don't have much effect.
The bullets will eventually run out.
War is about money, and every bullet shines with the brilliance of money. Even large trade unions are reluctant to use hot weapons all the time, and they switch to cold weapons again after a short while.
Some people even had their weapons cut off, permanently damaged and unable to be repaired, so they had to buy new ones.
After several large-scale battles, both sides became really angry.
At this moment, hearing that something happened to the Bikini Bottom team, the players of the Coral City Foreign Legion were extremely happy.
As the deputy leader of the External Corps, a player named "Master Lu" spoke out: "The players who rebelled against the alliance have ulterior motives and have been hindering the normal development of our Coral City players. As one of the leading teams of the alliance, the Bikini Bottom team has been using 'bugs' to brush cheap potions. Now they have finally received the sanctions they deserve!"
"Bah! The Bikini Bottom team got the medicine from a legitimate channel!"
"If you have the guts, ask your own team's pharmacists to make cheap medicine!"
“…”
The two sides had a disagreement and started to curse each other, and the volume soared by several hundred levels in an instant.
At this moment, the happiest ones are naturally the four-season rice far away in the wilderness.
This guy was online and let his in-game body follow the armored off-road vehicle to the joint camp. He then went offline, made a bowl of noodles, and stared at the quarrels in the forum with great amusement.
"Su Xia, you fell down before I could deal with you."
Sijidao lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and felt relieved. He sighed, "Alas, will Coral City be invincible so soon? It's so lonely."
He raised his brows, shook off the ash from his cigarette, and began to browse the pictures sent back from the pharmacy.
Of course, the area around the pharmacy has been blocked by mechanical soldiers, and ordinary players cannot pass through.
The person who sent the picture was a player with a special opportunity.
This player triggered a hidden task when the server was opened. After completing the task, he obtained a "little ant clone". It is useless on weekdays, but today it is just right to take screenshots from the perspective of the little ant.
[Live broadcast, robots are searching Papa's Pharmacy]
[Countless mechanical creatures are entering and exiting the store, loading a large number of treasure chests belonging to the pharmacy onto trucks and transporting them to the mechanical base in the north of the city.]
[The player Su Xia has not been found yet]
[Is this the end of the pharmacy? ]
【……】
[Found the player Su Xia, he seemed to be in the basement of the pharmacy before...]
In the photos and the live broadcast, Su Xia's face did not look good, with a frown on his face, and it was obvious that his mood was extremely bad.
Seeing this scene, Sijidao was extremely happy. He smoked one-third of the cigarette in his hand in one breath, with a look of enjoyment on his face.
"Su Xia, you have come to this day too!"
After all the ups and downs in life, it is finally his turn to reap the harvest!
He endured for a long time, planned for a long time, and finally got the location of the joint camp. He planned to get rid of the joint camp and then use his skills to deal with the pharmacy.
Unexpectedly, something went wrong at the pharmacy itself.
"Double happiness, great on top of great. All we have to do next is to eliminate the joint camp." Sijidao thought to himself, "Li Yun and his team have been undercover for so long and have made great contributions. What positions should we give them? These three guys have big appetites..."
Until now, Li Yun and the big golden retriever were still hoping for a lucky break and had not sent any message to Sijidao.
Chang Rui simply turned off his phone. I don’t know if he was autistic, he didn’t even log into the game.
Sijidao flicked away the cigarette butt and started eating instant noodles.
Suddenly, his expression froze, he frowned and stared at the screen, and found that Moser's face on the screen was also very ugly.
"What's wrong with Moser?" Sijidao was puzzled. "He looks as if he has eaten a dead fly."
For this special expedition mission, he deliberately chose an armored off-road vehicle close to Mercer, just to blend in with Mercer.
Sijidao knew that Moser was the biggest boss in Coral City because he was related to the most powerful ruler of the mechanical race.
Compared to him, Yu Tuo is nothing, not to mention the puppet human city lord Qi Lang.
Sijidao tried his best to become familiar to others, naturally wanting to get on the good side of Moser.
As the provider of the address of the joint camp, Mercer allowed him to stay close, which was sending a signal.
"Merser has also realized the differences among players and wants to use them, and I happen to be the representative of Coral City players." Sijidao knew very well that as long as he managed the business well, he would become Mercer's lackey sooner or later.
Everything was going according to his plan, and now even the biggest obstacle in the entire plan, the "pharmacy", had been automatically removed.
However, after seeing Moser's ugly expression, Sijidao felt a sinking feeling in his heart, as if something had happened.
He quickly ate two mouthfuls of instant noodles, then rushed back to the small VR room next to him to go online.
During this period, as the boss of the Coral City player management department and the external editor army, Sijidao got many benefits, made a lot of money, and rented himself a set of top-level VR equipment.
He linked the game to the VR device and after going online, the world in the game instantly surrounded him.
The starry sky is bright, and the night wind is blowing, with a hint of coolness in the wind.
“How did you achieve this game’s sense of realism?”
Four Seasons Rice sometimes thinks about this question.
As a hardcore gamer, he had never seen a gaming world like Looking Up at the Stars that could make people almost 100% immersed in it.
The moment he came online, even his mentality changed a little, as if he was really a member of the expeditionary army, about to attack the joint camp of the rebels.
Just then, a roar interrupted Sijidao's thoughts.
“Boom!”
Mercer suddenly soared into the sky, with the smoke from the thrusters behind him dazzlingly bright, and he flew as fast as a missile, heading straight into the distance of the night.
His figure gradually became smaller and soon disappeared into the horizon.
Sijidao looked in that direction with a confused look on his face, wondering why Moser left suddenly.
"We are very close to the joint camp. Aren't we afraid that the rebels will find us if we fly over there in such a high profile?" Sijidao thought to himself. "We should set up an ambush around the camp and block any possible escape routes. We can then launch an attack at midnight and defeat them with minimal losses."
The last time, the Scimitar organization that Sijidao belonged to was defeated in this way.
When dealing with resistance organizations, Sijidao has always been very cautious, because he himself was a defector from the resistance army and was well aware of the resistance army's methods.
Not long ago, An Lan's convoy was wiped out by a resistance organization called Bei Feng, and even An Lan himself died. This made Sijidao more cautious.
The human resistance is not without the ability to fight, and a head-on collision may result in heavy losses for their side.
More seriously, it might lead to the failure of his personal mission this time.
There are more than 20 resistance organizations stationed in this joint camp. They have a large number of people and decent weapons and equipment. There are also people from Longcheng participating. If a head-on fight breaks out, it will take some time to take them down.
Not long after, Moser came back, looking even uglier.
The elegance of the past was gone. He was wearing a black tuxedo and holding a cane tightly, like an angry gentleman, shouting: "Stop moving forward, cancel this operation!"
"Lord Mo Se, what happened?" the subordinate asked cautiously.
"Those humans ran away!"
"How could it be?" The subordinate was stunned. "It's only been a day. Did they get the news last night? That should the case! Doesn't the undead named Wang Yongqiang have an insider?"
"Wang Yongqiang?"
This is the original name of four-season rice.
His face turned pale and cold sweat broke out. He moved his eyes left and right and found that the mechanical creatures around him were staring at him.
What could go wrong?
Li Yun and the big golden retriever said there was no problem, and there was no news from the reconnaissance troops in front of the mechanical clan, so everything should be normal.
"I...I'll go ask them again..."
Sijidao swallowed hard, opened the private chat channel of the game system, and found that the avatars of Li Yun and the big golden retriever were still lit, so he immediately sent them a message.
【What's going on? 】
[Where are you guys? Why are you all gone? ]
[Squeak up! Let's make money together! Don't you want to make money anymore? Is there something wrong? ]
【……】
There was no response for a long time. Sijidao felt that the gazes from all around him were like needles. He became more and more anxious. He stared at the chat channel with gritted teeth, waiting for a reply, and his teeth almost broke.
Mercer gave him a cold look and said to the rest of his subordinates: "Our reconnaissance troops were completely wiped out. Someone is secretly helping the joint camp."
"What?"
The subordinates were extremely surprised. Who was so brave as to attack their forward reconnaissance troops?
No wonder I haven’t received any news from the front, it turns out those guys are all dead.
"Midnight Tavern, they are the only ones who have the guts to do this!" A mechanical creature immediately thought of it, and spoke in a very affirmative tone.
On this continent, except for the Zero Point Tavern, other organizations and forces cannot do this even if they want to. It is impossible to kill their entire reconnaissance team silently.
You know, that unit is very special, and many of the mechanical creatures among them have super high reconnaissance and camouflage capabilities.
"Who gave those damn killers the courage?" a mechanical creature said angrily.
"When we get back, we will immediately destroy the Zero Point Tavern in Coral City and drive out those shady killers." The mechanical creature waved its fists as it spoke, wishing it could kill back immediately.
"No, expelling them is too easy. We must let the others know our anger! Kill them all!"
“…”
Many members of the Mechanical Clan have always been unhappy with the Zero Point Tavern, and this is not the first time that the two sides have had a conflict.
The Zero Point Tavern sheltered many killers wanted by the Mechanical Clan, and the Mechanical Clan also secretly eliminated many members of the tavern, but neither side brought this matter to the surface.
At least, on the surface, both sides took a step back and gave the other side some face.
If they really wanted to publicly eradicate the tavern branches in the city, it would mean a complete break between the two sides, which is something that the top leaders of both sides do not want to see.
Mercer is one of the high-ranking members of the Mechanical Clan, and he has a gloomy face at this moment.
He listened to his subordinates' angry words and said nothing, but the hand holding the cane became stronger and stronger.
The mechanical walking stick couldn't bear it anymore and creaked, almost falling apart.
As long as he asked for permission, the Zero Point Tavern in Coral City would probably be taken down, and the Zero Point Tavern in the neighboring Waste Armor City would also suffer. After all, this time the two cities were sending troops together.
"Shut up! Let's talk about this when we get back!"
Moser finally spoke, his voice was like thunder and filled with anger, and the entire wilderness fell silent in an instant.
The indignant subordinates did not dare to speak again. They commanded the army to return along the same route. The atmosphere was a little more depressing than when they came.
At this time, Sijidao still hadn't received a reply from Li Yun and Big Golden Retriever.
Mercer looked at him again, his eyes cold, and said nothing.
But Sijidao felt a chill in his heart.
He knew that Mercer was disappointed in him.
For such a BOSS-level boss, there is usually only one chance. It will not be so easy to get close to him next time.
"no……"
Sijidao's face turned pale. The failure of the mission was secondary. He didn't want to be marginalized in Moser's heart.
But what else can we do now?
He tried everything, including in-game contact, outside-game mobile phone contact, private contact on the forum, etc., but none of the three guys answered.
Sijidao was getting so anxious that he was almost going crazy. At this critical moment, could it be that everyone was dead?
…
At this time, in the underground of the joint camp, in the most secure prison.
The lights were dim, the surroundings were pitch black, and there was only dead silence.
After a while, someone suddenly spoke in the darkness: "Did Sijidao send you a message?"
"Yes, what about you?"
"I've sent it too. How should I reply? It seems like he's noticed something's wrong."
"Let's just say our game is stuck."
"How do you explain why you didn't answer the phone?"
"Just say the signal is bad."
"Sijidao is not an idiot, you might as well say your phone is out of battery..."
“…”
