bite!
Just as Wang Ran was about to step into the portal,
The bamboo slips suddenly vibrated.
"During the training, the Watcher Association sent you an email." Zhu Jian reminded, "The Watcher Association said that your application has been approved and requires you to report to the Watcher Association as soon as possible to have your strength reviewed again."
Wang Ran was stunned for a moment.
He was so absorbed in training these days that he completely forgot about his overwatch duty!
He wondered, "When was this email sent? Why didn't you remind me earlier?"
Zhu Jian replied: "The email is from five days ago."
It paused for a moment and then explained, "The training room is a special space. Information from the outside world cannot enter. The email did not enter your mailbox until you left the training room just now."
Wang Ran pulled back her leg that was about to step into the door.
It was now early morning of the next day on Earth, and he had nothing to do if he went back now, so he might as well go to the Watcher Association.
By the way, I met Akshina and settled the reward for the last mission.
The flow of time in Akshina's world is much faster than that on Earth. One day on Earth is three years there. If something unexpected happens to Akshina, he won't know who to ask for the spring.
Wang Ran asked, "Can you teleport me to the Watcher Association in District 15?"
Zhu Jian replied: "Sincerely, 10 Morgan coins!"
Wang Ran nodded indifferently.
The next second, a translucent beam of light enveloped him and teleported him to the entrance of the Watcher's Association in District 15.
Compared to the last time he came, the Watcher's Association was much more lively today, and the hall was full of people.
"My comprehensive attributes are level three, and I thought I could get into the battle sequence, but it turns out I'm only in the logistics sequence."
"The logistics sequence is so good! This is a hell-level overwatch mission. If the mission reward wasn't so generous, I wouldn't do this life-threatening job!"
"I checked the historical records. The last time the Watcher Association issued a Hell-level Watch mission was two thousand years ago, and the casualty rate was as high as 79%!"
Wang Ran walked into the Watcher Association. He did not rush to find the assistant to ask about the strength review. Instead, he stood in the hall curiously and listened to people's discussions.
"The casualty rate is so high? Then I won't go!"
"Alas, if I don't participate in the Hell-level Overwatch mission, I will be kicked back to my own world by the World Hub. I might as well die then!"
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much. Once you get there, be smart and run away when you find danger. Isn't that enough to be one of the 21% who survive?"
"I thought so too. In the last Hell-level Overwatch mission, most of the people who died were from the combat sequence. Not many people from the logistics sequence died."
"Isn't it unlucky to be selected into the battle sequence?"
"I heard that joining the battle sequence will allow you to hear the gods preach."
"Which god?"
"Is this true? I'm a little tempted!"
"It's useless for you guys to listen to the gods' preaching. Just do your job in logistics!"
"… "
These people all participate in the mission for the mission rewards. They line up in front of the portal and go to different mission worlds in turn to contribute to the completion of the mission.
Wang Ran suddenly remembered that he only accepted the task but did not check the task reward.
He hired a little assistant.
He asked, "What is the reward for the Hell Level Watch Mission?"
The assistant replied: "The task details have been sent to your personal terminal, please check it!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the bamboo slips vibrated.
Lines of words exuding a bleak and murderous aura appeared on the bamboo slips.
[Mission Name: Gate of Disaster]
[Your identity: Logistics sequence 1899853554]
[Mission World: 03-9077]
[Mission content: Use mental connection technology to drive a detection robot to gather intelligence]
[Task Reward: 100~10000 Morgan Coins]
[Mission Tips: During the mission, the expenses incurred by staying in the alien world will be borne by the Third District Self-Rescue Committee. They can be reimbursed after the mission is completed, or they can be paid in advance by the Third District Self-Rescue Committee. However, you will not be able to open the channel back to the world hub during the mission.]
The minimum reward is 100 Morgan coins, which is equivalent to a stay of 1,000 days, and the expenses of staying in the alien world can be reimbursed. This is definitely a good deal for the lower-class people.
"The maximum reward is only 10,000 Morgan coins?"
Wang Ran was stunned for a moment.
But on second thought, this is just a logistical mission with low risk and low reward, so it is reasonable to have a smaller reward.
Wang Ran said to the assistant, "Please contact Akshina for me. She was the person who issued the task for my last Overwatch task."
The assistant replied: "We are helping you get in touch!"
bite!
"Akshina accepted your video request."
A virtual screen pops up.
In the picture, Akshina is wearing a crown and a royal robe, with a rosy complexion and a look of pampered luxury.
Wang Ran asked curiously, "You became king?"
He remembered when he went to Akshina's world to kill the insect queen, the people there called Akshina a general. How come in the blink of an eye she even wore a crown
"I am just a small king of a tiny country, not worth mentioning." Akshina said humbly, "My father was the previous monarch of this world. With your help, I quelled the insect plague and naturally inherited his throne."
Wang Ran smiled and said, "Congratulations!"
He stayed in the world hub for seven days, and more than two years had passed in Akshina's world. The female general who was armed to the teeth before had now become the ruler of a country holding a scepter, and she was a meritorious empress who came to the throne with her achievements in suppressing the insect plague!
Things in this world are unpredictable!
but…
When Wang Ran thought of the previous simulation, he couldn't look Akshina in the eyes.
"Do you want to study my spring?" Akshina said with a smile, "Let's do it now. I have just finished dealing with state affairs and can accompany you well."
Wang Ran nodded slightly.
The assistant said, "Akshina paid for you to open the portal and stay in the other world. There is no additional charge for this transfer."
A door on Wang Ran’s right lit up.
The time flow rate between the World Hub and Akshina's side is 1:100. Wang Ran didn't want to let Akshina wait too long, so he strode to the door, opened it and stepped in.
…
The air was filled with the scent of roses, the walls were inlaid with agate and gems, snow-white carpets were laid on the golden floor, and the air was filled with an atmosphere of luxury and enjoyment.
Wang Ran exclaimed: "This place is great!"
In his two lifetimes, he had never lived in such a big and luxurious house.
Akshina said respectfully: "If you like, I can have this place transformed into your palace. You are welcome to visit at any time."
Wang Ran waved her hand: "No need."
If he wants to live in a palace, he can ask the Apostle of Dawn to build one for him. With his financial resources, the palace he builds will definitely be countless times more luxurious than Akshina's!
It's just not necessary.
"Have you eaten?" Akshina asked cautiously, "I would like to invite you to dinner to thank you for saving this world."
"No, just take me to see the spring now." Wang Ran shook his head and said, "The Watcher Association has issued a hell-level watch mission. I will report there later."
A trace of imperceptible disappointment flashed across Akshina's eyes.
"Your Majesty! I seem to hear..."
At this time,
A maid came in.
She saw Wang Ran,
I was stunned for a moment.
Why is there a man in the king's bedroom? !
“Back off!”
Akshina snapped.
The maid trembled with fear, then lowered her head and walked out as if she had seen nothing.
After the maid left, Akshina apologized, "I'm sorry, she's new here. I brought her with me because her father died in battle following me. But she acted too rashly. I'll send her home soon!"
Wang Ran waved her hand: "No need."
He didn't think there was anything wrong with the maid coming in. Besides, if Akshina really wanted to send the maid home, she wouldn't have told him about the maid's background.
Akshina pursed her lips slightly.
Wang Ran urged: "Let's go."
Although two years had passed in Akshina's world, he felt that something was still wrong with Akshina.
Akshina raised her finger to her mouth, raised her snow-white neck, and let out a sharp whistle.
Woo!
A violent mental pressure loomed from a distance, along with a large, fast-moving shadow.
Wang Ran turned his head and looked out onto the balcony, only to see a giant red-skinned dragon circling around the palace.
He asked, "Is this your pet?"
Kind of handsome...
I almost forgot that Akshina is a dragon rider!
Akshina smiled and said, "Its name is Elena, and it's my fighting partner."
Wang Ran asked expectantly, "Shall we ride it?"
Akshina nodded, and she turned and shouted, "Elena! A distinguished guest is here! Can you give us a ride?"
"roar!"
The red dragon stomped heavily on the open-air platform outside the balcony and roared fiercely at Wang Ran, as if expressing his dissatisfaction.
Wang Ran became interested.
Judging from the mental pressure contained in the roar, this red dragon is only at the third or fourth level in the world hub.
He stared straight at the giant dragon, releasing six thousand points of spiritual attributes without reservation.
"Roar..."
The majestic red dragon suddenly became timid, and its roar suddenly became weak and powerless.
It covered its head with its wings, leaving only a slit for its eyes. Its huge body kept shaking, making it look extremely funny.
"It looks good, but a little timid."
Wang Ran put away his mental pressure.
Akshina smiled helplessly.
Are you timid
Elena and I have been through so many life and death situations together, and she has never been scared. It must be because you are too fierce...
She stepped on the red dragon's wings and walked onto its back, with Wang Ran following behind her.
The dragon saddle on the red dragon's back is not small, just enough for two people to sit in, but it is a bit crowded.
Akshina got into the dragon saddle.
Wang Ran hesitated for a moment and then sat down.
The two of them were pressed tightly together, and they could feel each other's body temperature.
Wang Ran looked embarrassed: "How about..."
"Elena!" Akshina shouted, "What are you waiting for?"
call-
The red dragon spread its wings, stirred up a strong wind on the spot, and flew towards the sky with a roar.
In order to avoid falling, Wang Ran had to reach his hand through Akshina's armpit and hold the handrail at the front of the dragon saddle.
Hundreds of thousands of civilians in the royal capital all saw this scene: their queen soaring into the sky in the arms of a man.
…
The magnificent palace gradually disappeared from their sight. No one spoke and the atmosphere became increasingly weird.
"I haven't been to the World Hub for a while. The Watcher Association has issued a Hell-level Watch mission. Did something big happen?"
Akshina broke the silence.
Wang Ran nodded: "The third district has encountered a doomsday attack. There may be several evil gods involved. The Watcher Association has specially issued a hell-level watch mission."
"That must be difficult, right?" Akshina asked. "My mission is only ordinary level."
Wang Ran pondered, "I heard that the casualty rate in the combat sequence is very high, but the logistics sequence is okay."
He paused and continued, "I was assigned to the logistics sequence, and my task was to operate robots to explore for intelligence."
"The danger is not great. As long as you complete the task, you will be rewarded with 100 Morata coins."
Akshina was excited and asked, "So many?"
She emptied her entire world to get more than a thousand Moroccan coins, and after paying Wang Ran, she was only left with more than eight hundred.
She is now reluctant to enter the World Hub for fear of spending all her Morgan Stanley coins.
She thrust herself forward excitedly.
Wang Ran's arms suddenly felt two warm and soft things.
Wang Ran remained calm.
Although he was uncomfortable being pushed, he would easily fall off the dragon's back if he let go, so he could only endure it reluctantly.
“Can I join?”
Akshina asked.
Wang Ran nodded: "Of course."
The red dragon circled and descended, and the strong wind brought by its wings pressed a hemispherical depression into the forest. All the birds and beasts in the forest scattered around in fear.
"king!"
As soon as the red dragon landed, the soldiers surrounded it and saluted.
As they bowed, they looked at Wang Ran who was holding Akshina, their eyes filled with curiosity and thirst for knowledge.
Wang Ran let go of his hand and jumped off the dragon saddle first.
Akshina stood up and walked to the soldiers on the wings of the red dragon. She said majestically: "Don't worry about me, go and perform your original tasks."
"yes!"
The soldiers stood up one after another and continued patrolling as planned, but their minds were no longer on the patrol.
"Dear strong man, please follow me."
Akshina took Wang Ran into the dense forest and came to a statue.
The sculpture is completely black, with a pair of folded wings behind it, and looks like a female angel.
What is striking is her posture.
She knelt on the ground, her head lowered and her hands clasped under her face.
Wang Ran moved closer to observe.
The sculptor who created this statue must be a genius. He made the sadness on the angel's face come alive, making people feel pity for him.
Akshina introduced: "This statue is the spring that produces the sacred spring water. Her tears are the sacred spring water, and only three drops flow every year."
Is the sacred spring water the tears of the statue
Listening to Akshina's words, Wang Ran moved his gaze to the eye sockets of the statue.
He had just noticed that the eyes of the statue were covered with a thin layer of mist, but he thought it was fog in the forest. Unexpectedly, it was the sacred spring water that was condensing.
Interesting, I wonder what the principle is
"Legend has it that this statue is an angel of atonement," Akshina explained. "Because he did something wrong, the god turned him into a stone statue and made him kneel here to atone for his sins. He can only return to the human world when his palms are filled with tears."
At this point, Akshina smiled.
"But it's just a legend. She's yours now. You can study her however you want. It doesn't matter if you damage her."
Wang Ran nodded and took out a faucet.
The front end of this faucet is no different from an ordinary faucet, but there is no pipe at the end, but a sharp cone.
[Strange faucet]
[Quickly obtain the ** contained in anything. The effect depends entirely on what you insert it into]
Akshina looked at Wang Ran in confusion.
Wang Ran stared straight into the statue's eyes and murmured, "A statue that is shedding tears must have water in its brain, right?"
