Chapter 528 Intelligence

"Sorry! I don't plan to join any team!"

Being surrounded by players like they found a hot commodity, Wang Zhifan had to open his mouth and loudly declare that he was a lone wolf player, then pushed away the crowd and walked away quickly.

However, his behavior did not dispel everyone's intention to recruit him, and three players followed him and continued to pester him.

"Bro! In this dungeon, lone wolves are doomed to fail! If you don't join us, it means that you will be enemies with everyone else in the future! This is a very stupid behavior!"

"Brother, why do you want to be a lone wolf in this dungeon that is obviously going to fight a team battle? Join us! We are all Xia people in our team, and we guarantee that everyone is united!"

"Think about it again! We have a top gunner in our team! You will regret it if you miss it!"

Faced with the pestering, Wang Zhifan ignored them and continued to speed up his walking speed to distance himself from them.

The three people behind him had to give up when they saw this, and did not forcefully intercept or anything. After all, the dungeon has just started and the two-hour deadline has not passed. If there is a conflict between players, they will be thrown into the enhanced penalty level.

A few seconds later, Wang Zhifan disappeared after turning the corner of the intersection. The person who invited him just now had not returned to his position.

"Stupid Xia country guy! Our team will definitely hunt him down!"

The Han country man said indignantly as he walked back, with a cold light flashing in his small eyes.

"What a pity, this countryman looks well-equipped, but his thoughts are too stubborn, and he is destined to suffer a big loss."

The Xia country player shook his head at the intersection where Wang Zhifan disappeared, and turned back to the crowd with a disappointed look.

The white player did not react much, because he had already set his sights on the next target of recruitment and went to lobby passionately.

At this moment, most of the players were still gathered on this road, discussing how to allocate their respective teams. Only Wang Zhifan and some lone wolf players had come to other areas of the ruined city and started their first exploration.

Wang Zhifan walked along the dirty cement road in a worrying condition, smelled the stench of the piles of garbage on the roadside and even in the middle of the road, looked at the wreckage of vehicles that were smashed into discus shapes by some external force, and sensed the dilapidated high-rise buildings with a few sneaky figures around them, and felt very confused.

"What kind of world background is this? War? Wasteland?"

He thought about it and prepared to ask an NPC according to the normal dungeon process, but suddenly, he remembered his personal AI assistant Xiaohong, so he said:

"Xiaohong, are you there? I need your help!"

The next second, the smartwatch on his left hand made a little girl's voice:

"Sir, I'm here. Is there anything you can help me with?"

Wang Zhifan raised his left arm and responded:

"There are many people who need your help! You should be able to find that I am currently on a technological planet, which is a good place for you to play a role.

I need you to help me hack into the local network that may exist, find information about the messenger, and a person called researcher who lives outside this city. He is responsible for collecting the messenger core..."

Wang Zhifan described the needs in order of priority.

First, in order to pass the dungeon, he must understand what the messenger is, where to find the messenger, how to obtain the messenger core, and then the specific location of the NPC to send it to after obtaining the messenger core.

Apart from these, he was also quite interested in the basic information about this world, because from the copy identity selection information, it can be seen that this is a relatively interesting and complex city.

"Okay, Mr. Captain, I will start to detect physical media for network activities. Please try to expand the range of movement."

Xiaohong immediately went into work after hearing this.

So Wang Zhifan continued to wander in this huge city ruins, passing one building after another in a certain order like sweeping the street, and it didn't take long for him to find something.

"Mr. Captain! There is a suspected local electronic device detected in the building about 110 meters to your left! Please get closer!"

AI Xiaohong made a slightly surprised sound through the smart watch. This anthropomorphic effect is a significant feature of the advanced AI of the urban planet.

"Okay, I'll go over and take a look."

Wang Zhifan immediately turned around and followed Xiaohong's instructions, passing through a shabby city block full of garbage, and came to a shabby building with no special features.

In Wang Zhifan's perception, there was no living person inside the building, and there was nothing useful except various garbage inside, but AI Xiaohong's detection of electronic equipment was professional, so he chose to trust it.

After a while, Wang Zhifan followed Xiaohong's instructions and stepped into the building's underground, which was covered with dust and various household garbage. He came to a closed iron door.

Just as he was about to break in, AI Xiaohong reminded him:

"Captain, please stay nearby for a few minutes. I am trying to hack into the local electronic circuit. The current estimated success rate is 99.999%..."

"Can it be hacked now? No physical connection is required?"

Wang Zhifan, who didn't know much about this, was a little surprised. He thought Xiaohong would need physical assistance such as inserting a chip, but he didn't expect that he could directly exert force in the air, even though he was very close to the target.

He then carefully sensed the situation inside the iron door and found that the space inside the thick iron door was quite crowded. There were many metal lines intertwined, but there were no running machines. It might be a local line node.

A minute later, Xiaohong reported the results of its work.

"Your Majesty, Captain, I have successfully hacked into the local network and obtained some permissions. The local terminal server is deep underground and is still deciphering the local language information. Please wait patiently."

"Xiaohong, you don't understand the language of this planet? That's right... Why don't you show me the way first, and I'll go down and have a look."

Wang Zhifan left the current building after hearing the subsequent instructions.

He forgot that Xiaohong had no dungeon to take care of her and could not directly understand the language of this planet. Players could communicate directly with NPCs, but not all of them knew the local language.

After walking out of the building, following Xiao Hong's guidance, Wang Zhifan rushed to the center of the city.

This is a very huge city. All the high-rise buildings on the ground look dilapidated, and the residents are almost invisible. However, in the center of the city, gunshots and explosions are heard all the time, as well as strange roars.

Wang Zhifan sped forward. As he got closer and closer to the city center, he finally saw what the local residents looked like, and there were quite a few of them.

He saw that in the rubbish-filled neighborhood two hundred meters in front of him, dozens of people from both sides dressed like "Shamate" were engaged in a fierce gunfight. Some even threw bombs. The violent noises he heard before were part of their manufacturing.

These people are not only dressed up in fancy clothes and look like they are not mainstream, but their marksmanship also seems to be relatively poor.

Some of the two parties hid behind the garbage dump and fired from time to time, while others hid in the windows of the building and fired secretly. However, the distance between the two parties was at most a hundred meters away. Wang Zhifan watched them shoot at each other for a minute, but no one was hit. It really left him speechless.

"Gangs playing house? Or is the weapon accuracy too poor?"

After watching for a while, Wang Zhifan prepared to bypass these NPCs who didn't know what they were doing and continue to approach the center of the city.

However, just before he started, a figure speeding up from the ruins of a tall building caught his attention!

It was an NPC with a very cool appearance. He wore a streamlined silver-gray armor and carried a technological-style luminous samurai sword. The covering helmet made it impossible to see his face. The overall image was very much like a mecha ninja.

When he first appeared, he jumped from the top of a tall building in the distance. In a few seconds, he crossed hundreds of meters in the air and stepped on the wall of another nearby building. Then he used his strength to bounce back to the balcony of another building opposite. On the way, the speed and dexterity displayed along the way are amazing.

In the blink of an eye, the mecha ninja landed among the fighting Shamate NPCs. Ignoring the bullets flying back and forth around him, he waved the luminous katana in his hand and made a loud sound with the sound of a loudspeaker:

"No fighting! No fighting! Anyone who fights again will be put in jail!"

As this being who was as skilled as a mecha ninja finished shouting, the killers on both sides who kept shooting at each other but no one was injured made a "horrified" sound:

"No! It's the Peace Walker!"

"Everyone, get out! I would rather die in their prison!"

"Today's battle is over!"

…

In the blink of an eye, the killers who were fighting fiercely on both sides dispersed. One by one, they ran very fast and disappeared between the streets and dilapidated buildings. Their speed was far beyond that of ordinary people, which made Wang Zhifan slightly stunned.

"These guys have very strong physical abilities. Why were all of them so bad at shooting just now? It seems like they were just dealing with it casually... But the one who is really powerful is this Peace Walker."

Focusing his eyes on the mecha ninja not far away, Wang Zhifan found that this being who had appeared in the initial identity of the copy was also eyeing him.

The next second, he saw this extraordinary peace traveler jump lightly and quickly land in front of him across a distance of a hundred meters. He put one hand on his chest and bowed slightly to him, and then said:

"Dear guests, welcome to Bamo City! As you can see, this is a peaceful city! I hope you can help our peace organization maintain its beauty and calm!"

"Peaceful? Beautiful?"

Wang Zhifan almost couldn't help rolling his eyes after hearing this, but he suppressed his desire to complain and instead smiled to communicate with the other party.

Because this is suspected to be a friendly NPC and does not seem to be an ordinary class.

“I am very happy to see the city of Bamo develop in a peaceful and beautiful direction with the efforts of your organization...

But Mr. Peace Walker, could you waste a little time to answer a few questions for me, an outsider? "

Wang Zhifan looked at the mecha ninja-looking Peace Walker in front of him and said with a smile.

"Please say, but please hurry up. Time to maintain peace is precious."

The Peace Walker immediately nodded his head and replied.

"I want to know what the messengers are? When will they come to Bamo City? Where are the researchers who collected the messenger cores?"

Since the other party was in a hurry, Wang Zhifan asked all the questions at once so that the other party could answer them together.

But what was a bit beyond his expectation was that when the peace traveler who had been friendly just now heard him talking about the messenger, his attitude immediately changed and he made a cold voice:

"So you are here for the messenger... Stranger, the messenger cannot represent peace. I refuse to answer your question!"

After saying that, this extraordinary mecha ninja suddenly jumped to the side, jumped onto the wall of a nearby building and started running horizontally at high speed. His figure disappeared in a few flashes.

"The fall out is really fast..."

Wang Zhifan, who stayed where he was, looked at the direction in which the Peace Walkers were leaving and felt a little confused, but he then said to the AI ​​Xiaohong on the smart watch on his left hand:

"Xiaohong, did you hack into that person's system just now? Did you gain anything?"

"Reporting to the Captain, you have successfully hacked and deciphered the local language information. He is a senior member of the local peace organization, codenamed 'Silver Falcon', and is currently responsible for maintaining the basic order on the ground in Bama City..."

Xiaohong began to explain the relevant details.

"Have you finished deciphering now? It's very efficient! Don't worry about this Silver Falcon, tell me about the envoy quickly!"

After listening, Wang Zhifan realized that Xiaohong had solved the intelligence problem, so he asked it for the most critical copy information.

"Okay, Mr. Qiu Zhang, based on the comprehensive judgment of all the local data that I have deciphered so far, the messenger is a powerful foreign existence. Most of them are of huge size. They will come to Bamo City every ten days to a month and attack Bamo City." The underground entrance to Motown caused huge losses, but would eventually leave on its own. The origins and motives of the messengers are still unclear. They last appeared three days ago..."

"Okay, it seems that the messenger is something like a BOSS... Have you found the researcher who collected the core of the messenger?"

After Wang Zhifan listened to the messenger information obtained by Xiao Hong, he asked about the next key point.

"According to the information provided by the captain, the relevant candidate has been found, but the opponent is not just one person, but a group of about a hundred people. There is a special research underground about forty kilometers northeast of Bamo City. mechanism……"

"Okay, it would be better to have more than one person, so that I can deliver the core of the messenger.

Let’s talk about the situation in Bamo City. I want to know everything about it! "

Finally, Wang Zhifan asked Xiaohong to share the information that he was very interested in. Xiaohong naturally told the whole story:

“Bamo City was founded 144 years ago and was originally a prosperous metropolis.

But after the arrival of the messenger, it, like other cities, suffered huge damage. People were forced to move thousands of meters underground to build a new living space and maintain basic social operations.

Currently, there are about 370,000 people underground in Bamo City, and important organizations include the Savior Company, the Academy of Sciences, and the Fighting Club..." (End of Chapter)
