Chapter 77
"Damn it, you scared me!" Someone next to me cursed, and soon fell silent.
Wei Huan recognized the voice as Xu Qingqiang's. In the dim darkness, he vaguely saw Xu Qingqiang standing not far from him, holding something in his hand.
At this time, Mu Dian turned on the light on the wheelchair.
Others also reacted and took out the floating lighting and threw it above their heads.
The light gradually brightened, and Wei Huan saw everyone around him.
Mu Zhong sat in a wheelchair, his fingers already touching the emerald green earrings.
Standing closely beside him were Liu Chengzhi and his cousin Mu, who had come to his rescue immediately. One of them nervously grasped a dagger, while the other had already grasped a conjured pistol.
A little further away from these three people are the twins, Jiayang and Xiyang Teng, who have created a common magnetic field for the spiritual followers.
Around them, red and blue lights danced, one extremely cold, the other extremely hot, illuminating their curly hair and their high-spirited eyes.
The twins are blessed by the magical elements of ice and fire, complementing each other, and possessing immense magical power when standing together.
On the other side, Xu Qingqiang had spontaneously gathered together with Zhou Yong and Lin Xu.
Xu Qingqiang stood in front of the two of them, obviously protecting them.
The magic pattern seemed to appear and disappear on the surface of his skin. On one of the exposed canine teeth, there was a piece of meat and bone hanging, which he mixed with gravel and chewed with it, making a "crunching" sound.
Zhou Yong and Lin Xu were both just ordinary farmers, but at this moment they also conjured up all the weapons they could. The individual rocket launcher that Zhou Yong carried on his shoulder looked very intimidating.
For Sun Yiling and Xiaozhi as life challengers, fighting ability is not the most important thing.
But on the first and second-level highways, when they had to work hard on their own, they also worked hard to improve their professional level.
At this moment, when their companions were ready for battle, the two were still deeply stimulated and conjured up their best weapons.
Two straight, pitch-black sniper rifles, nearly two meters long, emitting a faint iron light in the darkness, were raised by the two men and aimed forward. The moment they were raised, their aura was no less than that of anyone around them.
In an instant, everyone was ready for battle.
The atmosphere became tense.
Even the whistling sandstorm could not blur their determined and fighting eyes.
In the world of challenges, there is no room for carelessness!
However, just when everyone was ready to fight, they felt a chill on their backs at the same time.
A creepy feeling stimulated them, making them unable to help but look back.
I saw it, and I didn't know when, in the portal that opened behind me.
A thick, huge, flawless white jade leg is stepping out with great oppression.
"Yi~~~~"
The mother earth beast let out a long, ethereal and soft howl.
At the same time, ghost crows turned into dark clouds and flew out from above.
The running wolf nimbly shuttled under the feet of the ground-blooded mother beast, bypassing all of them, like a smooth stream, and gathered together in front in the blink of an eye.
Finally, it turned into rolling white waves and rushed towards the faint light in front.
Someone swallowed.
Some people are weak-kneed.
Some people opened their eyes wide and looked at everything in front of them with great excitement.
It is Wei Huan’s world-famous undead army!
Those legends, those praises, and that unbelievable power, were all so realistically displayed before our eyes at this moment.
Infinite and limitless!
The momentum is as high as a rainbow!
The battle ended quickly and easily. The Undead Army lived up to its reputation. Once it appeared, it had the momentum to suppress the entire scene!
Soon, before they felt the hardship of the night, their target person was welcomed before them.
Looking at the army of undead protecting the woman, one can almost feel the despair of being the enemy.
And the pride of being a comrade-in-arms, and a full sense of security!
Yes, it should be this strong! Far ahead of everyone else!!
This is the style that the world's number one person should have!
Wei Huan, the necromancer, the only necromancer on Blue Star!
…
"Ding Qi reports, Captain Wei! Captain Mu!"
The woman standing opposite, wearing a gray, wasteland-style linen dress, had now pulled down her headscarf.
She had a very neat short haircut, was over 170cm tall, and had skin that was a shade darker than wheat, making her look extremely tough and sturdy.
But her facial features are very beautiful, and she is a great beauty with a strong complexion, so even if she dresses like this, you can tell her gender at a glance.
But what attracted the most attention were the three dark beasts following behind her.
A violent bear, a running wolf, and a ghost crow standing on top of the violent bear.
These dark beasts are alive and much stronger than the undead species that Wei Huan had before he upgraded.
Of course, now that he has the [Undead Ranch], an ordinary Wolf Undead that has been upgraded to level three can already fight one or two living Wolf Dark Beasts alone, not to mention elites like Brother Taogang.
But when these three dark beasts stood guard beside Ding Qi and looked at everyone vigilantly, a powerful aura still hit them in the face.
No one here dares to underestimate this woman.
Even Xu Qingqiang, who was theoretically the strongest, was somewhat wary of Ding Qi. He glanced at the faces of the violent bear and the running wolf, as if thinking about something.
"Let's go back to the car."
The darkness of night hid Wei Huan's nostalgia for his old friend. Imagining Ding Qi's ending in the previous life, Wei Huan felt a little depressed and his voice sounded very cold and hard.
Ding Qi pursed her lips, thinking that she was late and asked the driver to pick her up, which made Wei Huan look down on her.
She gritted her teeth, reminded herself to cheer up, and must prove her ability.
A few steps back is the portal.
They walked from the second-tier road to the third-tier road.
Captain Xue's car had been guarding here the whole time. When he saw them return safely, he honked the horn twice in celebration.
Wei Huan nodded, summoned his car again, and got in first.
The door of the mini van is very small, but when he stands next to the car, he doesn't feel that way. Instead, it seems very tall and spacious, like standing in front of the main entrance of a hotel reception hall.
The door opened to the side, and I climbed a step to get into the car.
However, Wei Huan did not move forward, but stopped here and turned around to wait.
He waited for Mu Zhong to catch up in a wheelchair, then walked around behind him and pushed the wheelchair inside.
Just like that, walk all the way to the middle of the square.
When he turned around, everyone was there, standing in three groups behind him.
Liu Chengzhi, his cousin Mu, and the twins, Jiayang and Xiyang Teng, have firmly stood together and are 100% supporters of Wei Huan.
Xu Qingqiang and his two brothers stood at the back. Lin Xu and Zhou Yong were a little nervous facing Wei Huan, but Xu Qingqiang was very relaxed. Now he was gnashing his teeth and picking at the meat strands stuck between his teeth.
Ding Qi, who had just gotten on the bus, naturally stood with the only girl here, Sun Yiling.
But because the two sides did not know each other, they kept a distance from each other.
Looking at this loose team, Wei Huan was thinking of his previous life, when he was traveling in several cars and everyone was happy in the cars, drinking together for their ideals and goals.
This, of course, also includes many memories of Captain Ding Qi.
At that time, I always felt that everyone was easy to get along with. Once they got on the bus, they quickly found their own positions. There was no intrigue between each other. Their only goal was to kill the dark beast and stay alive.
It would be even better if I could discover another safe ruin, make some money and change my life.
Wei Huan never thought that when he stood in the position of the driver and looked at these people, they were not simple at all.
Some people are destined to leave, some people don't want to stay, some people have excessive expectations, and some are still waiting and watching.
It is indeed difficult to remain calm when facing those different looks.
But Wei Huan also has his own methods.
It is also the only way.
As long as he is strong enough, he can make anyone come and anyone leave.
So what if Xu Qingqiang is a twisted lone wolf? Wouldn't he settle down once he got in the car?
The power to suppress everything is the truth that challenges the world!
"I'm Wei Huan." Wei Huan looked around, and everyone stood up straight subconsciously when his dark eyes fell on them. "I'm the driver of this car, and the only voice."
Wei Huan said, and put his hand on Mu Zhong's shoulder again, his voice even deeper: "This is Mu Zhong, the deputy captain. You have full authority to represent me and make all decisions."
Finally, he said: "Also, you are still in the probation period. After the third stage is completed, we will notify you whether you will stay or leave.
From now on, there are still two hours until the third stage begins. Return to your rooms to rest, come down for breakfast in an hour, and be at your driver's seat by 5:50. Don't be late, and don't be early either."
Finally, Wei Huan nodded: "Disband."
Cousin Mu stepped forward at the right moment, pushed up his black glasses, and said, "Take your luggage and come upstairs with me."
Liu Chengzhi rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen, muttering to himself, "Dinner will be served in an hour? Time is a bit tight. This is my first time making breakfast for so many people. I don't know if it will be enough..."
Less than three minutes later, Liu Chengzhi's roar came from the kitchen: "Boss! The kitchen was robbed!!!"
At this time, Wei Huan and Mu Zhong had already arrived in the cab.
They don't have much time left to rest, and there are still many things to prepare.
For a level 4 vehicle, it should not be difficult to pass the level 3 assessment road as long as you don’t go to ruins or relics to commit suicide.
But this is the difficulty of the normal road assessment without the intervention of the Dark Beast Team.
The dark beast tribe is not a beast with low IQ. The wisdom of high-level dark beasts is no less than that of high-IQ humans.
Moreover, they are also evolving and learning. After a large number of talented new beasts were killed by humans for the first time, the dark beasts responded immediately, following suit and unexpectedly killing a large number of human geniuses.
The third-level highway, including the assessment section, became a graveyard for newcomers/beasts on both sides.
Even when there is no organization, the "special teams" of both sides will set the third-level highway as the execution point for daily tasks, and they will fight in it whenever they have nothing to do.
When encountering this kind of special team, 95% of the newcomers will die on the spot.
As a result, a large number of newcomers were forced to stay on the second-level highway and were afraid to move forward.
Wei Huan's Level 4 car does not have an absolute advantage on such a road.
Because the monster lord on the opposite side must be a level 4 monster, and they even form a team.
The dark beasts' strong physiques make them still very powerful even if they leave the protection of their territory.
So for more than an hour, Wei Huan and Mu Zhong have been studying the information about the third-level highway.
The detailed information not only gave the two of them a peace of mind, but also made them more serious about this assessment.
Mu Zhong said, "There's a lot of commotion outside. The Dark Beasts might get the news. Once we enter the stage, we'll only be faced with a choice between 0 and 1. We must prepare for the worst.
If it were just completing the challenge, it wouldn't be difficult. The difficulty lies in the fact that we also have the task of leading the car. If we want to lead so many people through the level, the resources will be very difficult to come by."
Wei Huan closed his eyes and thought about it. When he opened them again, he said, "No, I have an idea..."
"What?"
"A permanent solution is more suitable for us, or rather for me."
"The coverage of the undead army?" Mu Zhong speculated, but was not sure until he thought of "once and for all", inspiration flashed in his mind, "I know, this really works!" He looked at Wei Huan excitedly.
At this point, the plan has basically been finalized. Instead of discussing it with other team members, the next step is to announce it directly.
Until these people have confirmed their true identities as crew members, they cannot participate in any decision-making on the bus.
Even cousin Mu was just following orders.
However, Mu Zhong still contacted Colonel Luo Jia at the front with the plan through Captain Xue.
After listening to this, Colonel Luo Jia traded 10 "bipolar devices" without saying a word.
【Bipolar device】
Mall items
66 points/points
66 points are the price of core materials for upgrading from Sequence 3 to Sequence 4.
In the previous life, Wei Huan spent nearly five years to collect these ten core materials.
Now, the other party sent it over without even a flick of the wrist.
Of course, these points are nothing to Wei Huan now.
I just feel a little emotional. Everything is really different in this life.
It feels great to have resources tilted towards you and to be nurtured at all costs.
【Bipolar device】
Installed on the vehicles of the fleet, after dispersed actions, it can not only obtain the opponent's precise coordinates at all times, but also transmit images synchronously and draw accurate pictures.
Especially when the team members are helping each other, the vehicle's maximum speed can be increased to 30%.
"This is the best fleet supply currently available, and it was delivered just in time." Mu Zhong received the device and was ready to install it.
As a driver, he did just the right thing.
Wei Huan did not go with him this time and nodded to let him go on his own.
He stayed to tidy up the warehouse, and then asked the housekeeper to notify the twins and Ding Qi to come down.
The three of them came to the cab and looked very energetic.
The first task after getting on the bus is about to begin. No one has time to rest and everyone wants to work hard.
Wei Huan got straight to the point: "Tell me about the progress of your level 3 vehicle."
He made it clear: "I need a Tier 3 vehicle to serve as the deputy leader on the left wing. Whoever consumes the least resources will be promoted first."
It’s like pie in the sky!
The twins and Ding Qi's eyes lit up, and at the same time, they and the people around them secretly developed the idea of competing.
Ding Qi said, "I'll go first. After entering the Level 2 challenge, I upgraded my car to Level 2 on the second day. The parts needed to upgrade to Level 3 now include the tires, hull, air conditioning, and windshield. I also need three main components: shock absorbers, a balcony, and an engine. If you don't count the external attack suite, all I need is the core parts for a Level 3 car. I already have the upgrade blueprints for it."
Ding Qi was very confident after saying this.
In the 1500 zone, she ranks first in vehicle performance and third in the overall points ranking.
Even if she got into Wei Huan's car, she was confident that she could secure a seat in it.
But the older twin, Jiayang, raised his hand and said, "We only have a level 3 engine left, so we can upgrade to a level 3 car."
Teng Xiyang said, "The drawings for the Level 3 vehicle are available, but two of the four core copper tubes are missing."
"The exterior attack kit, protective shield, and crash barrier are only missing the core parts to be fully upgraded," added Jiayang.
Teng Xiyang happily concluded, "We've also upgraded the windshield, which has increased the car's speed by 10%, making it even more capable of serving as a leader."
Ding Qi's eyebrows raised when she heard this. She never expected that these two twins who looked like they were in junior high school could be so powerful.
Reluctantly, but willingly nodded: "Then upgrade their car."
Wei Huan thought so too.
Time is urgent and resources are limited, so priority is naturally given to developing vehicles that can be used more quickly.
However, Wei Huan could also understand why Ding Qi lost to the twins.
First of all, the twins are two people, so they must be better at opening treasure chests and exploring ruins. In addition, many of Wei Huan's supplies were distributed through the hands of Jiayang. As a result, Jiayang developed very well on the first-level roads, and even more so on the second-level roads.
In addition, as novice instructors, Jiayang Gu and Xiyang Teng will also receive official support and resources will be allocated to them, including a microcosm in their car.
Compared to Ding Qi, who is a genius but has only recently emerged, it is also a fact that the twins' vehicles are better developed.
After deciding on the candidates, Wei Huan directly ordered the butler to help the twins upgrade the vehicle.
He also informed Ding Qi, "After they complete their Level 3 vehicle, I will continue upgrading their Level 4 balcony to serve as a remote output point. You will also need to board their vehicle afterward, so we can familiarize ourselves with each other as quickly as possible and have a pleasant cooperation."
Ding Qi understood and nodded: "Okay, I'll go and act with them right away."
"Um."
After waiting for Ding Qi and the twins to leave, Wei Huan called Xu Qingqiang and the other two to the driver's seat.
Wei Huan didn't say much, just told them that they needed to leave the car and drive on the right wing to perform reconnaissance missions, and gave them three [bipolar devices] and asked them to put them in the car.
Xu Qingqiang didn't say much this time. After taking the device, he tossed it in his hand and nodded in agreement.
He just said one sentence before leaving: "Sister Lu asked me to come here, so I will do this job thoroughly. But I have to say this in advance. If you encounter any trouble, it's best to tell me as soon as possible. I'm a tough guy, so maybe I can get through it. Don't let me get killed."
Wei Huan also said: "I have a lot of cannon fodder to die, it's not your turn yet, just follow the order and don't think too much."
Their eyes met.
After a long time, Xu Qingqiang sighed, looked away first, and turned away.
Finally, Wei Huan called his cousin Mu over and had a brief chat with him. The housekeeper then informed them to prepare for dinner.
Wei Huan walked out the door with a serious face, but was warmed by the aroma of breakfast.
Liu Chengzhi, who was busy and enthusiastic, opened the half-meter-wide steamer with a smile. Soft white steamed buns and rising hot steam rolled up in the restaurant, and everyone showed a happy expression.
"We were pressed for time, so I made some steamed buns and rice porridge, and cut up a few side dishes. If you're not used to this breakfast, come over here and I'll make you some noodles and rice vermicelli. The fried fried sauce is pretty good, too."
On the left is a Western-style breakfast. The sliced toast is put into the toaster and baked in one minute. It can be a meal when paired with coffee or milk.
By the way, we have boiled eggs and fried eggs here, come and get them if you want them.”
Sun Yiling happily chose her breakfast and looked at Liu Chengzhi with sparkling eyes: "Oh my God, did you prepare all this by yourself? I've never had such a sumptuous breakfast since I was in Challenge World."
Ding Qi, who was still struggling an hour ago, was covered in dust and dirt. Now he stood in front of the food, unable to move his feet, and said as he ate, "Delicious, delicious, really delicious."
The twins stood obediently in front of the noodle bucket, holding their bowls and chopsticks, and said in unison: "We want a big helping of noodles with soybean paste!"
Xu Qingqiang squatted directly on the chair, picked up a big steamed bun and tore it open, put some side dishes and meat sauce in the middle, and ate it with hot rice porridge, which tasted delicious.
Cousin Mu and Mu Chong both ate slowly and leisurely, looking like well-educated people.
But they are all challengers after all, so their appetite cannot be underestimated. Although they seem to be chewing slowly when eating, they are not slow at all.
After eating until he was about 70% full, Cousin Mu took out a tissue and wiped his mouth. He looked at everyone and said with a smile, "This Liu Chengzhi is also a treasure."
Wei Huan agreed with this.
Most of the people who venture back to challenge the world do so to make a fortune, or at least to gain some admiration and respect from the ordinary people of Blue Star.
Only Liu Chengzhi, who obviously came from an extraordinary family and whose elders obviously didn't want him to take risks, turned his job as a chef into an interest and a value in his life.
Liu Chengzhi's breakfast seemed ordinary and nothing special, but it brought this scattered team together and successfully broke the ice.
After eating and drinking, the people who went to the driver's cabin no longer had that reserved look on their faces. Occasionally, their eyes would meet and they would even say a few words.
This relaxed and comfortable feeling lasted until the countdown approached the last ten minutes, when things became serious again.
Wei Huan was already sitting in his main driver's seat.
Directly in front was Mu Zhong's co-pilot seat, right at the front of the cab.
On both sides of Mu Zhong, there are five driving seats in an arc shape.
These are called crew seats.
At the Level 4 vehicle stage, every crew member has a seat. As the vehicle is upgraded further, there are more and more people on board, and the functional divisions become clearer, so logistics personnel like Liu Chengzhi will no longer be needed.
Even today, with only 12 driving seats, none of them are full.
Mu Zhong was alone at the front.
Cousin Mu was in charge of logistics, and his driving seat was in the rear.
The only person he is currently responsible for is Liu Chengzhi, who is still busy in the kitchen.
Sun Yiling and Xiaozhi sat diagonally, in a secluded position.
As transitional members, and also because they are responsible for the logistics of the life department, there are not many tasks that can be assigned to them, so they just sit there and do nothing for the time being.
As for the other six main combat personnel, they were not in the driver's seat.
Xu Qingqiang and the twins took their people to the underground parking lot, waiting to enter the race section before completing their tasks.
They are all in their own cars at the moment, and the [bipolar device] transmits real-time images of their front and external environment back to the main car, so that they can confirm their current situation at a glance.
Even a lone wolf like Xu Qingqiang was prepared for this team operation.
The countdown is approaching minute by minute.
At six o'clock in the morning, dawn arrived as scheduled.
"Good luck to you."
At the last moment, Captain Xue sent a message of blessing and said, "We are waiting for you in front."
at the same time.
This is also the time when the stage assessment begins.
As the system manager counted repeatedly, the number that kept approaching finally reached the last one.
Immediately afterwards, everyone felt a sense of weightlessness.
At the same time, his eyes blurred and he arrived at the third-level assessment stage.
