As soon as he came out of the transmission channel, he heard loud noises in his ears, and unconsciously reached out to cover his eyes, squinting slightly and looking up at the sky.
Suddenly, the wonderful picture presented in the sky made Xiao Ran tilt his head slightly. The sky in Xiao Ran's eyes was layered layer by layer. The first layer was the lower sky that was so clean and transparent that only a few clouds were used as embellishments, but in the second layer , this clean and thorough gradually turned a little gray, and the third layer directly turned into the vast starry sky of the universe. The endless blue and black were filled with countless starlights.
In Xiao Ran's eyes, the sky seemed to have day and night at the same time. Although there was no sun, the first layer of the sky was like daytime. Under this daylight, one could clearly see the beauty of the starry sky. And this It also reminded him of the same scene that appeared in a movie he once watched - Thor. In that movie, there were the same scenes as now, but the feeling in the movie and in person was completely different, which made Xiao Ran feel like his mind had expanded a bit.
After standing outside the transmission channel for a few minutes, Xiao Ran came back to his senses from the beautiful scenery and remembered his own business. Lowering his head, the commotion echoed in his ears again. Xiao Ran saw that both sides of the long passage outside the transmission channel were now filled with tables of various shapes, holographic projection screens were everywhere, and there were many people in twos and threes. People gathered together, or people standing in front of those tables and behind them were arguing about something.
Looking along the end of the passage, huge buildings stood neatly there. From Xiao Ran's point of view, those buildings were completely on two branch lines, and they were perfectly connected without any extraneous elements. They were arranged like a triangle, and among them One corner was pointed in his direction.
Xiao Ran walked among them and watched. He was full of curiosity, and he was dazzled by the various participants and various advanced technological products. The participants all look similar to humans on Earth like him, but they are very different in detail. Or skin color, or eye color. Or ears, etc.
For example, one of the participants Xiao Ran saw had a gem-like thing in the middle of his forehead. This was not an ornament but something he was born with. When he was arguing with others, the gem actually emitted There was a faint flicker.
There was another participant with sharp teeth, blood-red eyes, and even his fingernails were red. He was drinking from a bottle of something unknown. While still smiling and joking with the people around him.
Xiao Ran also saw participants with a third eye on their foreheads, participants with snake-like pupils, and so on.
He even saw a participant directly open his chest and pull out his arm in front of a table. Yes, he opened and pulled out. The chest cavity was the product of biochemical modification and mechanical modification. Pulling out In his arm is a weapon that can shoot.
Of course, there were participants who looked exactly like normal earthlings, and these participants accounted for the majority, but Xiao Ran did not dare to regard these people as the same as himself, even if they were women.
Because he just saw someone with long brown hair. A woman who was breathtakingly beautiful and whose figure was so sexy that it was uncontrollable was beaten down two or three times by a strong male participant who was at least two meters tall and came to chat with her. Compared with Xiao Ran, the height of this female participant is still a bit lower. If the three male participants who were with this female participant hadn't stopped her quickly, I'm afraid that the strong male participant would have been hit. A sudden beating.
Looking at the woman who had beaten the person up but had a charming smile on her face, Xiao Ran suddenly felt that this Prometheus was really scary and terrible. Although the participants were not excepted in Prometheus You can't kill people and you won't get hurt in the arena, but the hits on your body are still very painful. Fortunately, these participants obviously don't have any supernatural powers, otherwise they will bump into each other in the mission world. The result was really, really scary.
Xiao Ran squeezed out with some difficulty from the crowd watching the excitement, and started to get down to business. I started shopping in these places where various renovation factories were obviously trying to attract business. Xiao Ran did not go to the busiest place, nor did he go to the unattended table. After looking around, he came to a table. Although there was no one there now, Xiao Ran saw a participant leaving with a smile on his face just two minutes ago.
From Xiao Ran's perspective, behind the desk was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He was no different from a normal human being, but he was very strong and a muscular man. He was holding a big cigar and a pair of Wearing sunglasses and a black sweatshirt, he was sitting leisurely on a sofa. When he saw Xiao Ran walking to his desk, he stood up with a smile.
He walked up to Xiao Ran, took the big cigar in his hand, and asked: "Little brother, do you need help? Do you want to modify the machine body, or are you planning to make a new machine body."
Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment: "I'm going to modify my body."
"Come on, come on." The middle-aged man waved and patted the table to signal Xiao Ran to put his hand on it.
Xiao Ran, who had just observed the participants and these tables, also saw that many participants were drawing and writing on the tables with the bosses of these different tables after putting their hands on them. But when he passed by, he picked up something from the table. Not visible either. But I also guessed what putting my hand on it meant. It roughly meant authorization. Authorizing this desktop can display his current body information and the like.
He put his hand on the table without hesitation. In an instant, two interfaces with different but identical directions popped up on the table between the two. The left side of the interface showed the two machines that Xiao Ran currently owned, and the right side of the interface showed what was inside Xiao Ran's warehouse. After seeing everything displayed on the interface, Xiao Ran's face instantly showed a trace of hesitation.
But just this little change in his expression made the middle-aged man who had been looking at Xiao Ran see something. He smiled slightly and said, "You are a newcomer, right."
"Yes." Xiao Ran glanced at the boss and nodded silently. He suddenly regretted that he rushed to this place recklessly and leaked his information.
"No wonder, it turns out he's a newcomer." The middle-aged boss smiled as he held his cigar in his mouth. He crossed his arms and said, "Don't worry, I can only see what you want me to see. In my opinion, there is nothing on the panel in front of you. Unless you do this."
As he said that, the middle-aged man stretched out his hand in front of him, which represented the location of the machine bar, and waved in Xiao Ran's direction. Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, but he also understood what was going on.
"Prometheus will only give new participants some basic information, but things like these will not be provided." The middle-aged man spat out a few eye circles and said: "I suggest you buy a copy of Prometheus The Newcomer's Guide is available in the system store. It's not expensive and only costs 100 battle points. It was written by a senior participant a long time ago. It was approved by Prometheus and can be sold in the system store. There is nothing in it. Misleading place.”
Said. The middle-aged man sighed: "Originally, the participant could get a stratification of ten combat points each. After so long, it has accumulated a lot of money. It's just a pity."
Xiao Ran asked curiously: "Dead?"
"He's dead." The middle-aged man spread his hands and said with a smile: "But because of this, he created a guild that is now ranked third, so he died well. Now his photo is still hanging in the hall of this guild for people to worship, haha .”
Xiao Ran felt funny when he thought of that scene. He shook his head and looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Are you also a participant? There seem to be residents in Prometheus who don't need to participate in the mission, right?"
The middle-aged man nodded, shook his head and said, "It was before. It's not now."
"Huh??" Xiao Ran scratched his hair in confusion.
"Meet some conditions, and then you can break away from the status of a participant after paying a certain amount of merit points." The middle-aged man folded his arms and said calmly: "For people like us who are unable to complete increasingly difficult tasks, and They don’t want to die fighting. Many people choose to become residents of Prometheus, as are many people on this street.”
"And only residents like us can open factories that serve participants. We can't leak any information about our customers. Can you trust me to do your business?"
Xiao Ran nodded: "Well, what's your name?"
"That." The middle-aged man pointed his finger. Xiao Ran looked up and immediately twitched his lips. A signboard was on the middle-aged man's head. There were four big characters written on the signboard, although it was not the Chinese that Xiao Ran knew. . But he also understood what those words meant: Lao Luo Jixiu.
"Lao Luo?" Xiao Ran shook his head and swiped the Holy Shield Gundam on the interface in the direction of Lao Luo. Then he sent the tactical composite armor in the warehouse, and after thinking about it, he sent the full energy bias armor and energy shield.
Lao Luo watched Xiao Ran's hand wave several times in succession. He slowly smoked his cigar without paying attention. When he inadvertently looked down, his eyes suddenly popped out of his head. He looked at what appeared on his interface. He then looked up at Xiao Ran and removed the glasses from his face. He took off his other hand and slapped it heavily on the table.
"Whoosh!" Under Xiao Ran's astonishment, a barrier suddenly bounced up from the ground, directly sealing the entire table.
"Don't worry, this is just a precautionary measure. I usually open it when I receive business." Lao Luo lowered his head and looked at the things displayed on the desktop and said, "You are the best newcomer, right? When I see these things, I Just know it. It’s not that I haven’t seen good things, but I’ve never seen a newcomer get something like this.”
"C+ level body, two C level components. It seems that you have gained a lot in the novice world and you should be very lucky." Lao Luo raised his head, looked at Xiao Ran and said with a slight sigh: "Nowadays, the newcomers are getting better and better. The more powerful it is, this machine has also been modified, and with the things you get from the novice mission world, you are really making a lot of money."
Seeing the confusion on Xiao Ran's face, Lao Luo patted his forehead and said: "Look at me, I know you are a newcomer, and you still say such things, blame me."
Lao Luo said: "The novice mission world is different from the next mission world. In the novice mission world, you can get things in that world if you have the ability and luck. You get the body in the novice mission world, even if it is equipped with a hundred kinds of equipment. As long as the weapons and parts can be loaded and hung, the weapons, parts, etc. that you can bring out are yours."
Xiao Ran thought for a while and nodded. When he received the exclusive mission for the Dark Heretic, the machine body was not what it is now. There was no flight pack, two physical daggers and two combination beam rifles.
Seeing Xiao Ran nod, Lao Luo continued: "But the next mission is different. In addition to the parts rewarded to you, the transformation you make in the mission world will only be effective in that world. Once the mission is completed, you will return to Prometheus. If you modify the body, it will return to its original form. If you want to keep it, you have to pay corresponding combat points according to the degree of your modification."
"Although those parts are just ordinary parts, unlike those rewarded by the system that can be integrated and fused with the original parts, for novices, how many combat points will be saved. But for senior participants, those parts that cannot be integrated and fused into weapons It’s not of much use to their bodies, and they don’t look down on those things.”
Xiao Ran listened to Lao Luo's words, his mouth suddenly opened wide, he stretched out his right hand and slapped himself, thinking: "Damn it! Damn it! If I had known this, I would have put all the Shuguang Society in it." The complete set of component weapons for Black Heresy and Holy Shield is here!” ()
