#347 - Homecoming

[Task type: Scenario mission (single player)]

[Mission name: Homecoming]

[First-stage mission objective: 2 hours later, wait for transmission in a dark place]

Li Sheng's expression was stern. There is a saying in the news industry that "the fewer words, the bigger the story."

The name of this script mission is just "Return Home", I'm afraid it's not a good thing.

He quickly explained a few things about the intelligent core and strode out of the toy factory.

When the cylindrical robots busy on the assembly line saw him leaving, they hurriedly chased after him, waving vertical flags excitedly and watching him leave.

Some robots were so excited that their electronic eyes sprayed green battery fluid like tears.

Do you have to be so exaggerated?

Li Sheng left the killing field with a frown on his face, returned to the real world, called Hui Yu who was picking his nose, and began to prepare.

Add the two attribute points from the last upgrade to strength and agility respectively. His current panel is:

As the level of the artificer increases, the upper limit of spiritual power will also increase.

After making all preparations, Li Sheng turned off the lights in the living room, drew the curtains, and waited quietly.

There was no sign, no throbbing,

Li Sheng opened his eyes and found himself standing in a coastal woodland.

The sky was gloomy and the rain was drizzling. Looking to the right, through the trees, you could see the vast ocean and smell the salty sea breeze.

Looking forward, you can vaguely catch a glimpse of a simple tea shed built beside the loess mud road, and a large group of people gathered under the shed.

There were about fifty people, including men, women, old and young, dressed in either luxurious or simple clothes. Some of them had swords, knives, bows and arrows hanging on their waists or backs.

"It looks like a scenario mission with an ancient background."

Li Sheng's eyelids twitched, and a bad feeling began to brew.

His current level was Lv20, with two epic items and a bunch of perfect quality items. The level of luxury of his equipment was no less than that of a Lv25 or even Lv30 Transcendent.

If you really take it seriously, even on a modern battlefield, you can kill your way through a flood of armor.

Because of this, there is a high probability that there is something wrong with this ancient background mission.

[Mission briefing in progress]

[In the 42nd year of the Yong'an reign of the Ming Dynasty, the sage ruler ruled the country, selected virtuous people and appointed capable people, enforced strict laws and regulations, and governed the people with benevolence. He also worked hard to govern the country and listened to good advice, and finally achieved peace and prosperity.]

Hey, hey, hey, do you have to be so exaggerated?

Li Sheng's eye twitched. Only a small percentage of mission briefs used narrative tricks to deceive people. Most of the time, the truth was told.

So many praiseful adjectives are piled on a feudal emperor. Are you the reincarnation of Han culture, or a swindler of Li Er?

Besides, there was no era name called Yong'an in the Ming Dynasty.

[The Tu family of Nanhai was a poor boatman from the Nanhai area of ​​Huangjiang Prefecture 120 years ago, but now they are rich and have farmlands. Legend has it that the Tu family's ancestor encountered a shipwreck with a group of fellow travelers while sailing, was swept into the deep sea, visited the Dragon Palace, and met the Dragon King.]

[Among the group, only the ancestor of the Tu family returned to the shore alive. After that, he brought back pearls, snail jade, and ambergris from the sea continuously. He used his wealth to make friends with local gentry and officials, and to make friends with people from all walks of life, and soon accumulated a huge family business.]

[Now, it is the 90th birthday of Old Lady Tu. It is said that the family property will be sorted out and the family will be officially divided at the birthday banquet. People in the underworld who are on good terms with the first, second, third and other branches of the Tu family have been invited to the birthday banquet one after another. They want to strengthen the momentum of the branch they support when the family property is divided. Of course, there are also those who have evil intentions and want to get a glimpse of the secret of the Tu family's wealth.]

[You just happen to have a birthday invitation in your hand]

The moment the mission briefing ended, Li Sheng's hand sank and a palm-sized bronze plate appeared out of thin air.

The front of the bronze plaque is engraved with the words "Celebrating the old age, sincerely invite you to gather together, October 10th, Chihai Island, looking forward to your presence"

The back is engraved with various marine life patterns. Fish, shrimp, crab, shellfish, sea snake, octopus, turtle, shark, whale

All the images are lifelike, and the creatures become larger as they go down, except for a circular blank space at the bottom of the bronze plate, which occupies one-third of the area.

There is a kind of awkward feeling that makes people with obsessive-compulsive disorder particularly uncomfortable.

There was no information about the invited person written on the front or back of the bronze medal. Li Sheng scanned it with the information integration glasses and found nothing unusual, so he took out the electronic pet egg and released Huiyu.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Hiss, the smell of the sea."

As soon as the gray rain landed on the ground, he took a deep breath of the salty sea breeze and said excitedly: "Who are we going to kill?"

"I'm not going to kill anyone, this time I'm going to have a feast."

Li Sheng sighed helplessly. At this moment, the system prompt sounded at the right time.

[Second stage mission objective: With the invitation, take a boat to Chihai Island and survive until the end of the birthday banquet]

[Task time limit: 48 hours]

[Task Reward 1: 1500 Experience Points]

[Task Reward 2: 6000 Game Coins]

[Task Reward 3: Random item*1, quality depends on clearance rating]

[Task Reward 4: 1 random skill scroll, quality depends on clearance rating]

[Failure penalty: Permanent stay in the scenario world]

Li Sheng narrowed his eyes and pushed his glasses lightly, "Not good."

"What's wrong?"

Li Sheng told Hui Yu about the mission briefing, "[With the invitation, take a boat to Chihai Island and survive until the birthday banquet is over], this sentence revealed at least four pieces of information.

1. The only correct way to travel is by boat with an invitation.

If you sneak across the border in a speedboat or force your way in without an invitation, the consequences will be disastrous.”

Huiyu thought for a moment, "Like encountering a sea monster?"

"That's possible. It's also possible that they simply can't find the location of Chihai Island, or the Tu family thinks they have bad intentions, and directly triggers a battle."

Li Sheng nodded. Even though the NPCs under the tea stall opposite were wearing Ming Dynasty costumes, the first rule for players is not to underestimate the natives of the script world.

There has been a related case on the forum where a group of players arrived at a medieval mission world. After multiple investigations, they confirmed that this was the Middle Ages. They all felt that they were capable enough to punch the Roman Empire and kick the Pope of the Vatican.

Just when they were doing their best to bully others, they suddenly discovered a subway tunnel underground that was built a thousand years ago - it turned out that this was a human civilization rebuilt after the apocalypse.

The princess of the occupied small country sacrificed her life and summoned low-orbit satellite cannons to blast all the players into pieces. Only the sports camera was transmitted back to the real world.

In short, don't underestimate the natives of the other world. Who knows whether the dusty villagers carrying hoes can master the technology of star destroyers, retraction cannons, and two-dimensional foil.

Li Sheng continued to analyze, "The second point is that you have to stay on Chihai Island during the birthday banquet and you can't leave early.

3. The birthday party cannot be interrupted or stopped in advance.

Fourth, the closer we get to the end of the birthday party, the more dangerous it becomes.”

This is quite strange. Since it is called an island, the area of ​​the island must be not small.

After Li Sheng transformed into the insect form, his defense power was comparable to that of a main battle tank. In the worst-case scenario, he could turn the ash rain into a ball, hide inside it, and withstand horrific natural disasters like volcanic eruptions or high-intensity earthquakes.

What kind of danger could threaten Li Sheng?

The two stood there and thought about it for a while, but they couldn't come up with an answer. As the rain got heavier, Li Sheng took out a hot water bottle from the three-dimensional warehouse, stuffed it into Huiyu's arms, and held up an oil-paper umbrella, and walked towards the tea shed in the distance.
