Fatal Shot

Chapter 52: Go to sea

Views:

On the endless light gray ocean, a medium-sized cruise ship was slowly cutting through the waves.

This is a double-decker cruise ship nearly twenty meters long. The silver-gray hull has three eye-catching black characters of "Grey Wing" and a series of red English characters.

But the most eye-catching thing is the three-barreled 40mm close-in defense gun under the ship's control room, and the two six-barreled electromagnetic machine guns distributed at the bow and stern of the ship.

The Gray Wing is an armed cruise ship!

On the synthetic material deck covered with a layer of insulation material, Feng Luo sat on a sun lounger, deftly dismantling the sand eagle with his hands, and using an oilcloth to perform necessary daily maintenance.

Going out to sea on a cruise ship should be an extremely pleasant thing.

Blue sky, white clouds, sea... fishing, sunbathing, eating coconuts...

When the surrounding scenery is the endless sea and sky, and there is nothing to do on the sea except playing, it is easy for people to forget their worries and become comfortable.

However, there is an exception to the gray sea.

Because the sea water here is polluted, the entire sea area looks a slightly chaotic light gray from a distance.

Gray is probably the color that is most likely to give people negative feelings.

Moreover, the sea is not a place suitable for sniper combat. Although the view on the sea is infinitely wide, waves and wind will have a huge impact on the ship.

Feng Luo tried it several times after getting on the boat. When he used a sniper rifle to shoot at seabirds in the sky, the muzzle that was originally aimed at would often be deflected due to the sudden shaking of the boat, and the bullets fired would even reach hundreds of meters away. There will be a huge deviation.

He wanted to solve the problem of inaccurate bullet shooting, but he had no good solution for the time being.

Fortunately, according to the Red Queen, their group's sailing time on the ship was only about a day and a half, and the real mission location was a military base on an island.

Yes, it was the military base in the area marked on the mission map that Master Roland gave him. This coincidence even made Feng Luo once wonder if the Red Queen and the others had come with a premeditated plan? Don't have any other agenda.

But considering that he took the initiative to find them, it seems that this matter can only be described as coincidence!

"Our destination is Silver Leaf Island in the south-central area of the gray sea area, and enter the military base numbered S-53!"

The Red Queen was standing in front of a table to the left of Feng Luo. She used a device to project a three-dimensional virtual island image on the table and spoke to a total of six players around the table, including Feng Luo.

"This is a secret military base before the great destruction in the historical background of the game. At present, no one has ever tried to open up wasteland, so there will definitely be a lot of danger inside. You need to be careful when entering."

Then the projected image changed and was replaced by a middle-aged white NPC wearing a white scientific research coat and a short-haired girl also wearing a white scientific research coat and black-rimmed glasses.

"However, our mission does not require clearing out the entire military base. Instead, we only need to protect these two NPCs and obtain something from a certain core research room." The Red Queen said.

"This middle-aged white man is a genetics and virology expert named Ek, and this seventeen-year-old short-haired woman is his assistant, Lin."

"Lin, a seventeen-year-old scientific assistant, a genius girl among NPCs... Childlike face****... Well, it's hard to tell with this figure that she is only seventeen years old!"

A player with a short stature and a dark complexion, who looks a bit like Ah San, his eyes were rolling around the 34d chest and buttocks of the short-haired girl NPC who was wearing a uniform, and he was tutting.

This guy's ID is "Big Pineapple" and he is a heavy armored warrior player with a level as high as 47.

The mission team organized by the Red Queen has a total of seven people. In addition to Black Panther and Bing Liuli, there is also a level 46 light armor warrior with the ID "Neutron Star" and a level 44 female doctor named "White Crescent".

A fire controller, a water controller, a heavy armor warrior, a light armor warrior, two snipers and a doctor.

This seven-person team just happens to take two branches from each of the three major professions, including defense and rush, range and remote damage, and paired with a healing profession, it is very suitable for small-scale team battles.

The only regret is that there is no machine gunner to carry out suppressive fire when needed.

Mainly because the machine gunner profession consumes too much ammunition, and ammunition takes up a lot of backpack weight.

The anti-gravity space backpack used by the player has a weight and total space limit. The weight exceeding the upper limit will literally press on the character, which will seriously affect the movement speed and increase physical consumption.

Therefore, teams of less than ten people generally do not have machine gunners, so as not to become a drag.

Except for Feng Luo and the doctor, all the seven players are above level 45. Among them, the Red Queen has reached level 48. This is the highest level player Feng Luo has encountered so far.

However, there are more than seven combatants on this ship.

There are fifteen NPCs on the entire ship, all of whom are above level 40.

They belong to the crew of this armed cruise ship, and they also have a certain degree of combat effectiveness. Even the captain in his forties is a level 43 elite template with a high AI. It is said that he served as a corporal in the Federal Guard when he was young.

Yes, these crew members were the NPC mercenaries that Feng Luo had considered before. The wealthy Red Queen directly hired fifteen of them.

"Mr. Big Pineapple, your most important task is to protect the personal safety of the two NPCs after you go to the island. After completing the task, the 200,000 credit points promised to you will be credited to your account one by one. ”

The red queen turned her head and said to the player who was commenting on the NPC girl, her face slightly cold.

"Okay, I promise to complete the task!"

Big Pineapple agreed readily. His bright eyes turned and glanced at the chest of the female doctor named Bai Yueya, only to receive a fierce glare from her.

Only then did Feng Luo realize that this heavily armored warrior named Big Pineapple, like him, had not been a member of this team before, but was a player who got paid to do things.

Two hundred thousand credits, the price is higher than his "Extreme Shot" chip.

Of course, her level is level 47, so it is definitely worth more than my level 40 one.

However, including his own rare chip and the commission fee from this heavily armored warrior, it is already higher than the price of a piece of rare equipment. Coupled with the money spent on hiring NPCs and cruise ships, I don’t know what the reward for their mission is. Is it worth such a large investment

"That's all about the situation of the two target NPCs. Anyway, they spend most of their time in the cabin room doing experiments, so it is not difficult to protect them when they are at sea, except when encountering emergencies. "

The sudden situation the Red Queen is talking about refers to the monsters in the sea.

Although they were on a cruise ship, it did not mean that they could completely avoid monster attacks. They had encountered several waves of monsters along the way after going out to sea, but they did not have much trouble.

So after the Red Queen said this, she turned off the projection equipment.

"That's it, everyone is doing their own activities now. We will be able to reach the target island around noon tomorrow."

"ok!"

Big Pineapple stretched out his hand and made a clear gesture.

"I'll go in and check on my employer."

The Red Queen stood up and walked into the cabin.

"How about we have a betting fight?"

Everyone dispersed, and Feng Luo was about to hang up and switch to the forum to watch a movie, when a voice sounded above his head.

The Black Panther, who had changed into a brown camouflage uniform, stood beside him. His body of 1.8 meters blocked most of the sunlight, and he was looking at him with a pair of aggressive eyes.
