My slow journey to infinity

After the exclusive troops from the dream system joined the battle, the battle immediately lost its suspense.

It didn't take them half an hour to end the battle, not even fifteen minutes. To be precise, it only took them twelve minutes and fifty-seven seconds to kill all the enemies on the ground.

The three students of [Origin Tree] only saw the release timing in the abdominal compartment several stories high after boarding the comprehensive transport ship named [HDST-012 Dream Hunter D].

It is precisely because they have faced those enemies before that the three of them are shocked by this time.

Especially those two students, Brother Hui, they still remember the information in the materials——

[Armaged Argonians] are crazy and cunning creatures from the middle and lower levels of the Turbid Abyss. Non-elite individuals generally cannot advance to the third level.

Their physical fitness is extremely powerful, and they also have many body-enhancing abilities. They have the ability to project armor from a distance, and some individuals can also use tools and weapons.

They have strong fighting instincts, like to fight more and less, and like to confuse and trap prey. They advocate victory and the honor of war, but when necessary, they will even beg for mercy or run away.

Of course, most of them don't speak a common language in reality.

In short, although these Argonians can only be stupid targets when attacking fortresses, as long as they enter a close encounter with low protection, they are powerful and cunning terror hunters.

But just now, three students witnessed nearly a hundred terrifying hunters being efficiently dismembered.

In order to deal with them, the system's troops have been exhausted.

Several beast-shaped drones were completely destroyed, and now only a few remnants of the nearly a hundred "clone" troops were left cleaning the battlefield.

Even Wang Shui had to admire the dream system's calculation of the battle situation. From the beginning, the system was only prepared to deploy "enough" troops to control costs.

This was a brutal battle. Except for the "soldiers" who disappeared like snowflakes, both sides showed extremely strong combat and tactical qualities.

Especially those "clone" soldiers, they don't have the third level level, let alone the strong physical fitness of the Argonians, and their firepower is only enough.

What they have is a fast and efficient fighting method, a tacit and coordinated teamwork, and a fighting style that is not afraid of death.

"They are crazier than the creatures of the Turbid Abyss."

With this idea in mind, the three students followed Wang Shui and entered the passenger area of ​​the comprehensive transport ship?

Compared to the tragic battlefield outside, no one expected that inside this obviously military transport ship, there would be a general store similar to a bar, or should I say, a club?

Wang Shui led the three of them into the hall very familiarly, and then found a small table in the corner to rest.

"That's it. We have to wait a while for the return trip. After all, the battlefield below still needs to be cleaned, and according to the ship's public timetable, [Dream Hunter·D] still has to deliver a few orders, but it won't stop this time. .

In almost an hour, we will arrive at the nearest [C-level command center]. "

As he spoke, Wang Shui called the mechanical attendant and asked him to deliver ordering tablet terminals to the three guests.

The product list on the terminal immediately grabbed the attention of the two male students, but Wang Shui and Mia fell silent.

But soon, the student "Lingyue" seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly started talking to Wang Shui:

"Um, this is Mr. "Blue Water"? Why don't you introduce your company to us? And this transport ship? "

Compared with the initiative he took before boarding the ship, Wang Shui seemed to be very tired now and said casually:

"There are detailed explanations in the customer instructions on the tablet terminal."

Of course, this level of perfunctory couldn't stop Ling Yue from continuing to strike up a conversation. A few minutes later, he said again:

"Hey! Mr. Lan Shui, I just received a notice from the school. A letter from the student union said that they have settled the balance!"

"Oh, that's really great." This time, Aqua Regia was even more perfunctory. He shrank into the sofa and his voice became much softer.

Don't blame him for not responding, after all, this task has nothing to do with him at all.

Wang Shui just saw the public mission itinerary, made a little guess, and then went down to pick up Mia.

In fact, Wang Shui had already run away.

After Wang Shui killed the priest of the [Dissolving Purple] Church, he quickly left the city.

While Mia and the others were investigating the black clinic, Wang Shui had already boarded the light rail train returning to the inner city.

As for the backlog of tasks that have not yet been settled, he has already planned to help Mia complete it remotely. After all, with important information, [Tree of Origin High School] should pay enough attention to it.

In fact, [Tree of Origin] really takes it seriously.

But what Wang Shui never expected was that the war broke out before he entered the city.

The entrance to the Crystal Dome has been sealed, and no one is allowed to leave or enter the inner city. The inspection for entering the city is also extremely strict. It seems that Wang Shui must use his space ability to sneak in.

But now the space management in the inner city is not as strict as usual.

However, just when Wang Shui was thinking of a way, the system's [War Recruitment] announcement resounded happily through every awakened person's work channel.

Wang Shui had to rush to the nearest system block, and then, with the nearest assignment, he boarded the [Dream Hunter] in a daze.

[Dream Hunter] Integrated aerospace mothership, a super base ship that supports both aerospace and aerospace, and is one of the core assets of this planet.

The current [Hunter Dream] has been launched into low-Earth orbit and has become a temporary space port.

The comprehensive transport ship [Dream Hunter·D] that Wang Shui and the others are currently riding is only part of the entire Dream Hunter. Now this transport ship has become an important mobility tool, supply center, and mobile happy castle for the awakened people. .

Yes, they are happy.

For the system and the awakened people, war is of course a feast.

As the war hound of foreign civilizations, the system can obtain a large amount of wealth and resources, as well as political benefits from war.

And the awakened ones can naturally follow suit and eat meat.

Especially the local awakened ones, they are so hungry!

Since their rebirth, they have been living in the middle city of this super city. They rarely have the opportunity to stay in the inner city, and they are completely unable to integrate into the inner city of the locals.

Dangerous work and poor living conditions make the awakened people here particularly depressed.

But now, their jobs have not changed. They still have to deal with those turbid abyss creatures or other dangerous things, and their rewards have not increased much.

But the overall task volume has more than doubled!

ah! Finally, I no longer have to compete with my peers for trivial tasks!

ah! Finally, I no longer have to eat the leftovers of the big hunting group!

How could they not be happy? How can you not have a party? !

They even shouted - "Long live the war"!

However, Wang Shui is really unhappy, because he is still in the punishment stage and can only take on the backlog of tasks... so the settlement news of [Tree of Origin] means nothing to him.

However, Wang Shui was not too depressed. After all, he did not live by doing tasks.

What Wang Shui cares about most is the war itself.

Now he just hopes that the war will not disrupt the order of the inner city. He still has to obtain the [Scholar Certification] and gather the wool of the [Russell Family].

Each [Scholar Certification] is a research fund of one billion standard currencies. Focusing on a few of them is no better than being a bounty hunter.

Just when Shui Wang wanted to rest for a while, the ship's broadcast suddenly woke him up.

[Notice from the Dream Hunter D ship—the transport ship will set off in five minutes, and all departments will be ready for coordination immediately. 】

The concise and clear announcement rang out three times. The awakened ones who were resting nearby showed no reaction. Only Shui Wang suddenly stood up.

He glanced at the three students and whispered:

"You three stay here first and don't run around. I'll be right back."

After Wang Shui left, Ling Yue immediately complained to the two companions:

"Wow, it seems that here are all the awakened people of the [Dream System]. I heard that they are all reborn people from other worlds. Hey, do you two think they have memories of past lives?

Moreover, most of them seem to be human beings. Are there any strange creatures? "

"Go and ask anyone, you won't necessarily get beaten anyway." The student known as "Old Lan" said casually.

He is indeed a little calmer than Zero Moon, but only a little.

The reason why he is particularly quiet now is because the product list on [Dream Hunter·D] attracted him.

As for Mia, she has been in a daze since she sat down.

Not long after, Wang Shui rushed back. As soon as he sat down, [Dream Hunter·D] set off.

Wang Shui, who was still thinking about ways to return to the inner city, still felt a little unmotivated, but inadvertently, his eyes met Mia's.

"Go out and talk?"

It was Mia who initiated the invitation. She seemed to have adapted to the thinking network communication.

However, Wang Shui was still a bit dumbfounded and replied:

"With our way of communicating, do we still need to find a separate place to talk?"

Mia reacted belatedly. Although she was a little annoyed and wanted to rub her hair, she quickly calmed down and asked seriously:

"You will continue to help me, right?"

"Of course, that's part of the deal."

Wang Shui did not use more ambiguous terms. He was deliberately leading Mia's way of thinking and their relationship to the concept of "transaction".

Although this kind of guidance is not conducive to deepening the relationship, it is very suitable for the somewhat self-defeating Mia.

Aqua Regia just wants Mia to regard herself as a commodity, and it is a commodity that has been traded to Aqua Regia, so that she will subconsciously stop self-harm.

Applying the meme - [The "price drop" caused by hurting yourself will affect the "equivalent payment" of Aqua Regia]

It is difficult to treat a damaged and distorted mind with conventional care, and aqua regia does not have the patience to slowly observe and prescribe the right medicine.

He just happened to pick up a seriously injured kitten at the right time. As for whether the kitten can survive, it depends on her own desire to survive.

After briefly going through the whole thing, Wang Shui also explained seriously and briefly:

"Actually, I'm more anxious than you. My mission has been delayed and I'm probably stuck on your matters."

"As long as you are willing to work hard, it shouldn't be difficult to complete the mission, right?"

"Hou~ Do you think highly of me?"

Regarding Wang Shui’s teasing, Mia is still very serious:

"I don't know your fighting ability, so I can't comment on it, but your ability to find people is indeed very strong, much better than mine.

The combat teacher sent by the school to support was also very keen, but he seemed to care more about the creatures in the abyss. He disappeared just before the war broke out. "

"Well - the war was indeed sudden, and it was obvious that the rebels in the central city had been preparing for a long time, and their activities were really intriguing.

You might as well imagine boldly, assuming that we found out about the black clinic, which was the trigger of the entire war, then why would the top leaders of the rebels choose to start the war immediately?

Were we worried that we would find some traces that would put the city council on alert?

Or are we accelerating something?

What was their purpose in launching the war? resource? population? Or is it the city itself? "

Wang Shui suddenly let go of his thinking. His jump made Mia a little confused, but Wang Shui didn't seem to be off topic.

The two people's thinking network was silent for a while, and Wang Shui suddenly asked:

"You shouldn't be afraid of death, right?"

"Um."

Mia's answer was short and powerful.

"Without further ado, I suddenly don't want to go back to the [Level 3 Command Center]. Ending the mission early will save me the trouble of thinking, so we will disembark immediately.

The war situation is very unfavorable to the [City Council], but due to the size difference, the rebels must try to gain as much territory and resources as possible in the early stage to have a chance of winning.

Soon, the countless streets and lanes in Zhongcheng will become a wide-area battlefield where both sides are fighting. We must act quickly before artillery fire covers all traces. "

After the exchange of thoughts, Wang Shui suddenly stood up and said to the two confused brothers next to him:

"You two should know how to get off the boat, right?"

The two brothers nodded blankly, and then watched helplessly as this guy, who they had just met and had been wearing a silver-gray metal mask, took away their beautiful school girl.

"Um...Old Lan, did I miss something?"

“Missed the best age for plastic surgery?”

"Pinch Tama... Don't talk nonsense. The school girl ran away with a stranger. Do we want to follow her and have a look? After all, we are here to help investigate something."

Lao Lan responded with an idiot look, then lay back on the sofa and picked up the tablet terminal again.

However, he still added two explanations for the idiot brother:

“First of all, that was Brother Hui’s mission, we were just brought here to help.

Secondly, classmate Mia took the initiative to follow others. She is an adult and will be responsible for herself.

The school only requires us to help each other outside of school, and does not ask us to interfere in other people's lives.

Finally, do you think she needs our protection? There's a war going on outside, who do you think you can protect? "

"What if she wants to return to the war zone? The "temporary command center" we escaped from seems to have become a firefighting zone. "

Zero month still wants to do something.

He doesn't know his own motives. This is probably unique to young people. They tend to get carried away easily. There is no practical meaning or purpose. They just feel that they should do it.

Lao Lan is more realistic. He doesn't want to be responsible for anyone's life.

"Just go back to the war zone. That's her own choice. Do you still want to die with them? If you have time, why don't you take a look at these weapons and ammunition.

Don't tell me, the special ammunition here is really cheap, and the variety is ridiculous. But does this mercenary company have so many small workshops? The brands are so mixed. "

Ling Yue, who originally wanted to say something, was cooled down by Lao Lan's attitude.

Indeed, he is more responsible for his own life.

Mia on the other side didn't know what the two seniors were thinking. After confirming to Wang Shui that the two seniors would indeed go to the edge of the inner city, she was considered worthy of the school's teachings.

Mia followed Shui Wang for a long time before finally coming to a large cabin. There were many people packing some boxes, and no one paid attention to their activities.

"Our landing module is over there."

Wang Shui suddenly pointed at two tall metal cylinders not far away, and then walked over with Mia.

A huge metal cylinder more than three meters high and about one and a half meters in diameter. Inside the open mechanical structure is an upright "bed".

Mia knew this thing. It was a board used to protect the pilot in some small spaceships. It was taught in school.

She roughly understood what this cylinder was, but she didn't understand the meaning of aqua regia.

"Why do we need a lander? This thing isn't..."

"Things that burst into the atmosphere from outside the planet? Indeed - so, where do you think we are now?"

Wang Shui gently pushed the confused Mia into the landing cabin. While helping her fix her body and check the binding parameters, he slowly explained:

"We had two reasons for having to use the lander -

First, we are currently at an altitude of about 100,000 meters. [Dream Hunter·D] is returning to the mothership, and then it will go to the [C-level command center], but in any case, it will not specifically send us Send it back to that city. "

"But I remember that you were free..."

Wang Shui quickly pressed Mia's mouth, pinched her cheek hard, and then said viciously:

"It's all for you! Don't say nonsense that shouldn't be said, okay? The ground is getting more and more chaotic. You can't get back using normal methods, don't you understand?

This is the second reason why we must use the landing module!

The place we are going to has just experienced a brief exchange of fire. Now there are no outposts and observation points in the entire [Midtown F19·A8 Division]. The situation inside is very unclear, so we need to use some special means to forcefully break into the depths. at. "

"Uh, you don't mean that!"

Mia suddenly broke into a cold sweat, but Wang Shui had already tied her up and took the space secret card called [Dangerous Goods Warehouse] from her waist.

"Hey, it seems you have already guessed it. Let me tell you another trivia -

The six mixed-fuel rocket engines equipped with the active landing module are exactly the same as those on some medium-range ballistic missiles, so as long as we flatten the launch angle slightly and then remove the rocket in the reverse thrust part, it will Got a super-large boost-type hollow cannon! "

After that, Wang Shui very considerately closed the hatch for Mia who couldn't move.

Although Wang Shui did have some evil intentions to tease Mia, he did not deceive Mia. After all, he also got himself a landing cabin, and they really wanted to go back like this.

At this time, some mechanical knowledge is required.

Wang Shui, a former mechanical maintenance engineer, quickly removed a total of six reverse thrust rockets (three for each landing module).

After putting away the rocket, he used alchemy to repair the appearance and weight of the landing module to avoid accidents during launch.

"We won't fall to death in vain, right?"

Mia's careful inquiry came from the thinking network. It's not that she didn't believe Wang Shui, she just felt a little guilty after seeing Wang Shui actually remove the reverse thrust rocket.

Over there, Wang Shui had also entered his landing cabin. After he set the parameters to the system, he replied cheerfully:

"Don't worry, these two landing cabins are second-hand goods that I spent a lot of money to buy. They are very new for the awakened person's own use. Just relying on the safety system inside, there is at least a 60% survival rate!

Hey! I’ve long wanted to experience it! The two of them burst into the atmosphere and launched! Wuhu! "

Tom---

Unbeknownst to the entire ship, two scorching metal meteors had begun to burst into the atmosphere.

It's a pity that no one can appreciate their madness above the thick clouds.
