Ark, a chat group for gamers

Zerg Brood September: It's still very early, and it may take two or three days to go ashore... Are you ready to go?

Cube Gan Dilin: Well, we are going to leave tomorrow.

Square Liver Emperor Lin: My correction value has dropped, and there should be some related influences, but I'm barely ready, and it's time to go on the road.

Chapter 43 Fire Watcher 3K5

Unlike Atyrau, going to Karaton this time is destined to be a long journey.

Lin Luo left enough fuel for each device at home to run automatically for three days, allowing the devices at home to continue automated production to the maximum extent possible.

There are indeed a few points in the real world that make Lin Luo quite satisfied, one of which is that he does not need a block loader to maintain the operation of the target device.

In the past in the MC world, the calculations of the game were all based on the block where the player is located.

Except for the special coordinates of the player's birth point, all blocks will stop running after the player leaves to save performance.

But in the real world, there are no such restrictions.

After all, the real world will not be suspended because of a person's departure, it is constantly flowing.

Sitting in the classic car, Lin Luo threw many things directly on the back seat of the car.

He was trying to save space in his Steve backpack, so that he could carry more cubes with him.

Now I don't have any extra backpack modules, and I don't have enough ender pearls on my body to make an ender box to expand my backpack capacity.

And even if there are extra pearls, Lin Luo will not give priority to the ender box.

Because he didn't have the manuscript with the Silk Touch enchantment on hand, that is to say, after the ender box was put down, if he wanted to take it away again, he would need to lose an ender pearl out of thin air.

Therefore, Lin Luo can only take some items that can be carried with him and cannot be overlapped out of his backpack.

The vacated backpack space is filled with a series of basic blocks such as logs, stones, coal blocks, and various metal blocks.

As an MC player, Lin Luo will bring these functional blocks in his backpack when he decides to go on a long trip.

In this way, he can create a position anytime and anywhere, and quickly set up a temporary workstation in a foreign place to complete his various needs.

"Our first stop, where are you going?" Laurentina, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at Lin Luo and asked.

Lin Luo was stuffing a bundle of arrows into the carriage at this time. These arrows were different from the ordinary arrows of the MC original version, and all of them were special arrows forged by Lin Luo with craftsmanship.

Their number is rare, but each one contains enough materials, which can be said to be extremely precious.

After hearing Laurentina's question, Lin Luo said without raising his head: "Go to Atyrau first, replenish the fuel and other supplies for this car, and then we will go straight to Caraton."

Laurentina nodded. In fact, she just asked about the destination out of habit.

She has always regarded herself as a person who is on a journey, and she will hand over everything on the journey to this Mr. Craftsman.

The wheels ran over the simple road paved with cobblestones and rushed to the immovable post.

Since Atyrau has been driving with the lowest power consumption during this period, after arriving at the station, you can see some light and shadow of Atyrau on the horizon from a distance.

This saved Lin Luo from the trouble of finding his way.

The road was still bumpy, but it arrived at the city berth faster than taking a bus.

At this time, the parking area has begun to restore order, and staff can be seen checking the information of passing vehicles on the road.

However, the berthing area is still deserted, and perhaps there are still many people who have not recovered from the muddled state.

"Hello, please stop—"

The inspector raised the light board in his hand and beckoned Lin Luo to stop for inspection.

At this moment, Lin Luo remembered that the last time he came here, because of the haste and the chaos of Atyrau's municipal system, he actually forgot to register his identity to obtain a pass.

But just when Lin Luo was about to take this opportunity to make up for it, the inspector walked around the vehicle to identify the features, and immediately moved out of the way.

"Ah, it turned out to be Mr. Lin Luo, I'll let you go!"

The sudden change made Lin Luo stunned for a moment, and then he looked at the inspector with some surprise: "Do you know me?"

"You are a VIP of Atyrau City, and the information is all registered in our database."

"VIP or something..." Lin Luo grinned subconsciously: "Why does it sound so weird?"

Obviously, the inspector was not someone who could give Lin Luo an answer. He was just an ordinary person who was lucky enough to ingest less dirty blood, so he recovered quickly.

After inquiring about the nearest fuel supply station, Lin Luo drove away from the berthing area.

On the way, Laurentina said with a smile: "This is something you have to get used to."

"Um, what do you mean?" Lin Luo looked at the map and the road in front of her, a little confused, and couldn't think carefully about the meaning of Laurentina's words.

"You will become a paragraph in the history books." Laurentina seemed to be murmuring. She dragged her chin and stared at Lin Luo's profile: "And for the times, the weight of just a paragraph is also Enough to affect one side of the land.

"The spotlight will be your rightful place. You have to get used to it early... Otherwise, you will feel even more strange when you witness your statue standing in the square in the future."

"Why do I feel that Laurentina, you have learned to tease others recently?" Lin Luo felt a little helpless.

"No, Mr. Craftsman." The corners of Laurentina's mouth curled up in an arc that she didn't even notice: "This is destined to happen, I firmly believe in it.

"If possible, I also hope that I will complete the statue - this is a joke, Mr. Craftsman."

Lin Luo couldn't help laughing at what she said. He found that Laurentina became a little more active during this period, which was always a good thing.

After arriving at the fuel supply station, Lin Luo was just about to roll down the window and talk to the staff when he saw a familiar person standing at the door of the restaurant next to the supply station.

The wandering doctor named Xu Yu was standing there, carrying her medical kit and a cup of coffee, as if she had been waiting here for a long time.

Lin Luo's guess was right. Just after Lin Luo stopped the car, Xu Yu came straight over.

"Hello, Mr. Lin Luo."

Xu Yu put down the medical box, took off the hat on his head and greeted Lin Luo: "It is indeed a pleasant thing to meet again when the memory is clear."

"You're right, Miss Xu Yu." Lin Luo opened the door and got out of the car, his eyes quickly swept over You Yi: "Are you here... are you waiting for us?"

"Yes."

Xu Yu answered simply: "This is something Ms. Loranta asked me before she died. She wanted me to wait here for three days before leaving the city to see if Mr. Lin Luo would come. "

Lin Luo understood: "Ms. Loranta, does she have something to give me?"

"I don't know." Xu Yu shook her head at this moment: "She probably had this idea, but Ms. Loranta didn't entrust this task to me.

"I am waiting here so that the current governor can find Mr."

Loranta arranged her funeral before she died. She found her former comrade-in-arms and entrusted the city to him, and at the same time informed the other party of the existence of Lin Luo and others.

Lin Luo was also curious about Loranta's thoughts, so he and Laurentina walked into the restaurant where Xu Yu was standing before, and waited for the new governor here.

It didn't take long, probably less than half an hour, when an old but tall figure hurried into the restaurant.

His movements were hurried and he looked a little tired. He was wearing a crisp black suit and a black scarf hung on his shoulders as a sign of mourning.

The person who came was the newly appointed governor, Simon.

"It's our first time meeting, Mr. Lin." Simon quickly walked up to Lin Luo, saluted him first, and then put down his hand to shake hands with Lin Luo: "I am the messenger of the Model Army under the leadership of Deputy Captain Fred, Simon Eiffel."

Lin Luo shook his hand vigorously in response: "It seems that Ms. Loranta has also told you about my background."

"Yes, the vice-captain mentioned you. She always remembers Mr. Lin's contribution to her, to Governor Grolifa, and to this city."

Simon had the resolute demeanor of a soldier, and after a brief chat, he went directly to the topic.

"The vice-captain told me before leaving that if you haven't shown up in Atyrau these days, then these two ID cards can be destroyed, but if you come, they must be handed over to you. "

As he spoke, he took out a silver rectangular flat box from the briefcase he carried with him.

After opening it, it can be seen that this is a small data entry terminal, and two gold and silver metal cards are placed on the write port.

One of them has Lin Luo's name and a temporary photo on it, and the other has only a temporary photo of Laurentina.

Lin Luo noticed the classification display on the data entry terminal, which was the identity entry system of the intelligence agency under the Storm Commando.

He quickly understood Loranta's thoughts and admired the old man's ability to judge.

The other party only judged his and Laurentina's outsider identities during the short time they got along, and provided backhand support for this outsider's identity.

With these two pieces of identification, their movements in Victoria will be smooth.

Although Loranta has passed away, there are still other model soldiers still alive, just like Simon and the others.

These model army elders have some energy in Victoria, and as long as Lin Luo is active in their city, they can get their support.

"Ms. Loranta, are you going to give these to us?"

"The vice-captain never holds back when she gives her trust, and she thinks that all this in return is far from enough to repay Mr. Lin's kindness." Simon's voice was a little low: "The vice-captain told me about your identities, so I have a lot of respect for you." She made a decision with a positive attitude.”

Lin Luo's brows raised: "I'm suddenly curious about what Laurentina and I are like in your eyes."

Simon raised his head and looked at Lin Luo. The words of the vice-captain, the alien corpses he had witnessed, and the deep pit made of flesh and blood appeared in his mind.

"The vice-captain has always believed that there is a group of creatures in this world, they live on the fringes of human society, they have spent tens of thousands of years infiltrating the human world, and trying to burn our civilization to the ground.

“And they never succeeded because someone, acting as a fire watcher, blocked them from everyone’s sight.

"However, no matter how tall the city wall is, there will eventually be gaps exposed. Those creatures will take the opportunity to sneak into the civilized world. At this time, those fire watchers will come out of the silence and come under the sight of others."

A photo was taken out by Simon from his breast pocket. After he spun it around, he pushed it to Lin Luo with both hands: "The fire watchers will hunt those disgusting strange things, for the sake of the entire civilization continuation."

Lin Luo lowered his head, he looked at the fuzzy black skull in the photo, and recognized its identity at a glance:

"Wither Skeleton—"

Simon's slightly staid expression remained unchanged, but a light flashed in his eyes, and there was a bit of irresistible vibrancy in that vicissitudes and hoarse voice: "Yes, the vice-captain's forward-looking vision has never failed. Pass!"

"You know it!

"You are... the fire watchers of this world!"

Chapter 44 What Great Devourer Are You?

"Withering skeleton..."

Lin Luo scratched his eyebrows, and he could probably understand why the punishment for this mission was so severe.

He didn't think that the sudden appearance of the Withering Skeleton would have nothing to do with Karaton's mutation mission. The influence modifier would not drop and rise for no reason, and it was impossible for a mutation mission to appear out of thin air in reality.

The system should not directly cause such troubles for the players, it just truthfully informs the players of everything that happened.

Just like a huge mission network always needs a beginning, the beginning of this mutation mission was finally captured by Lin Luo.

"Is it troublesome?"

Holding the coffee cup in both hands, Laurentina looked at the pensive Lin Luo and asked.

Completely different from her fighting style, Laurentina has a very delicate emotional observation ability when she is not in a trance.

This point is similar to her naturally elegant appearance.

During the time spent with Lin Luo, Laurentina could sense some of Lin Luo's hidden thoughts.

Just like not long ago, Lin Luo explained to Simon the dangers of the withering skeleton and the nature of the withering power on it.

This kind of systematic knowledge also made Simon more believe in Lin Luo's identity as a fire watcher, although this identity was essentially imagined by Loranta.

But Laurentina noticed that Lin Luo's tone paused, he hid some content, and did not tell Simon about it.

"It depends on which angle you look at these withered skeletons." Lin Luo looked at the photo in his hand. Simon had already left because of his busy schedule, but he kept the photo.

This makes it easier for Lin Luo to match the MC knowledge in his mind with the withered skeletons in reality: "If it were in the past, I would only have a headache because their numbers were too few to kill, and if I was unlucky, I would still have to fight with them. It takes a long time to get what you want.”

Before... Laurentina caught this word, she didn't quite agree with the so-called fire watcher, but she felt that the man in front of her was indeed an orphan of an ancient race.

A race with high-end achievements in both technology and magic, and each individual is very powerful.

"But now, I just hope they don't appear in this world."

Lin Luo flipped the photo with his fingers, and there was no joke in his tone: "Not only do they have a withering effect, but also...their existence means that another creature will also exist."

"What do you mean?"

"Wither." Lin Luo replied, but he soon realized that Laurentina didn't know the meaning of these two words: "Just think of it as a very powerful person who will destroy everything it passes by." Transform into the existence of death.

Laurentina stared into Lin Luo's eyes, and after a moment of silence, she asked with a strong attitude for the first time: "It seems that this is not what you are worried about."
