The two men stood in front of a green plant in the amusement park, chatting while being alert to the movements around them.
The man with half-long blond hair was handsome, with a nonchalant smile on his face. He seemed to be leaning against a tree casually, but there was no blind spot around him that could be attacked.
Hearing the other party's question, he also looked in the direction of the Ferris wheel and said, "Yeah, that's him."
"He looks like a spoiled young man from a noble family. What did he do?" The other man was over two meters tall, sturdy and strong, with bronze skin and big muscles. He looked very tough.
"I haven't done anything yet, but Zeus can't find out any information about him."
"Can't find any information?"
"At present, we only know that his name is Zhou Zhou and he is 180cm tall. There is no information about his age, family, education, address or previous life experience. It's like he appeared out of thin air."
There is only one country in the current interstellar age, and that is the Ates Empire where they are. All information of all people from birth to death is recorded. Zhou Zhou who appeared out of nowhere is indeed very suspicious. What's more, he even deliberately approached His Majesty, and his intentions are not small.
"Then what do you want me to do?" Hea clenched his fists. "Do you want me to arrest him? But you can handle that little body by yourselves, right?"
Ryan looked at him helplessly, "Can you please stop thinking about fighting and killing? It's not easy to catch him. What we need to know is the person behind him. Being able to evade Zeus's monitoring means that they have some technology that can compete with Zeus. My identity as the captain of the guard is no secret. The identities of other soldiers are registered in Zeus's information system. They might notice us as soon as we show up. Your identity is the most suitable."
Heya is the second son of General Guan of the Empire, but for some reasons he was raised on another planet since he was a child, and his identity information is not in the He family. After he grew up, he became a mercenary. On the surface, he has no relationship with the imperial capital, so he is the most suitable candidate.
"You want me to follow him? That's fine. Which planet does he live on?"
"have no idea."
"You don't know? Then how can I follow you?"
"Always keep an eye on his movements in the game, and get to know him if necessary. We will also find his real-life address as soon as possible."
Although Zeus can monitor the opponent at all times in the game, he is not a human after all. Sometimes certain actions or secret codes cannot be understood, so someone still needs to be sent to keep an eye on them.
"I have to follow him when he's wandering around in the game?"
"Um."
Heya's eyes widened and he raised his voice: "Do I have to follow you on the dungeon mission?"
"Of course." Ryan looked at him and said, "Speak softly. Are you afraid that others can't hear you?"
Heya scratched his hair irritably. "Why don't we find someone else? You know, it's not easy to be a mercenary. There are too many things to worry about. I guess I can't keep an eye on this place all the time."
Ryan looked at him suspiciously: "When I asked you to come here, didn't you say you were bored recently? Don't worry, you are a mercenary now, so you will definitely be paid."
Thinking that Heya was trying to bargain by hesitating, Ryan offered a high price that no mercenary group could refuse.
"Their target is likely Your Majesty, so you should be more careful."
When Heya heard that it was related to His Majesty, he agreed, but his expression was a little unhappy.
Ryan had known the other person since childhood and knew that although he looked rough, he was actually thoughtful and would definitely do what he promised. This shouldn't be a difficult thing for him, so why does he look so grumpy?
Looking over there again, Ryan found that the target was about to leave. He couldn't stay any longer. It would be bad if he was discovered. He could only warn Hea again.
"It just so happens that your mental strength has reached a bottleneck recently. You can use this game to see if you can break through the bottleneck."
Heya sneered: "This game has some effect on ordinary people, but it doesn't have much effect on me."
Ryan stood up straight. "Not necessarily. It depends on the person. Besides, some copies are really good. You just registered today and haven't tried them yet. How do you know? Come on."
He patted Heya's shoulder and logged off right away.
Only Heya was left standing there with a sour face. After a while, seeing Zhou Zhou was about to leave his sight, he followed him.
After adding Qian Le’s contact information and making an appointment to have lunch together in the afternoon, Zhou Zhou left the amusement park carrying the teddy bear.
He was a little sleepy. He hadn't slept since Shirley and the others entered the campus, so he had to find a place to sleep.
There is a map of the entire Nightmare City Novice Village on the task panel. Zhou Zhou originally wanted to buy a house as his own home, but found that the housing prices here are very high, all starting at hundreds of thousands of points. He can only rent a house first and buy one when he has accumulated more points.
Zhou Zhou took the bus to the rental location. The houses here cost 100 points a day, which was not too expensive for him. He found a simply decorated house and rented it for a month.
There was no dust in the virtual space and no need to clean. After Zhou Zhou entered the room, he lay on the bed hugging the teddy bear and fell asleep in a second.
Heya didn't understand, she really didn't understand.
Why would some people sleep in the game? Wouldn’t it be better to log off and go back to sleep?
Is the living environment in reality too bad? Or are you afraid that your whereabouts will be discovered after you go offline?
No matter what, his task is to keep an eye on the other person, no matter if he is sleeping or in a dungeon, just keep a close eye on him. As for whether he is sleeping or taking a shower, it has nothing to do with him.
The time agreed with Qian Le was six o'clock. Zhou Zhou opened his eyes at five fifty on the dot. His eyes were clear, not at all like someone who had just woken up.
Leaving the teddy bear in his arms on the bed, Zhou Zhou packed up and went out in five minutes.
We arrived at the entrance of the amusement park at exactly six o'clock, and the time was controlled very accurately.
Qian Le jumped off the sightseeing bus not far away and trotted to Zhou Zhou.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." It was six o'clock when he changed shifts, and Qian Le hurried here after handing over.
Zhou Zhou shook his head: "It's okay, I just got here too."
"Then, where shall we go for dinner?" Qian Le asked stutteringly. I agreed to have dinner with the other person without thinking clearly. My mind was in a mess the whole afternoon and I didn't think about where to eat.
Zhou Zhou had only been to one place, but he didn't say it directly. Instead, he asked Qian Le, "Is there anything you want to eat?"
Qian Le waved his hands casually, "I'm fine with anything."
"Then I'll take you to the one I've eaten at before. It tastes pretty good."
The two of them took the bus to the place where Zhou Zhou had eaten with Shirley and the others before. Qian Le looked at the beautifully decorated and uniquely styled shop and walked a little hesitantly.
This tiny movement was captured by Zhou Zhou.
"What's wrong?" he asked, turning around.
This restaurant is very famous in the interstellar world, and the prices are a bit expensive. After eighteen-year-old Qian Le left home, he earned his own tuition and living expenses, so naturally he didn't have spare money to eat in a place like this.
"It's too expensive. I don't have that much money." Qian Leli said confidently. He was not the kind of person who would brag.
Last time, it was Shirley who treated him, so he didn't know how much it would cost. When he heard Qian Le say this, Zhou Zhou tilted his head and thought for a while and asked, "How much does it cost to have a meal here?"
Qian Le said uncertainly: "It will cost at least several hundred for two people."
Zhou Zhou smiled, looking very happy, "I have enough money, I will treat you to a meal, thank you for the little bear and fireworks."
When Zhou Zhou smiles, he looks like a little hamster who discovers he still has a lot of food, with a little pride and relief. Not only does he not make people feel disgusted, but he actually feels cute.
Qian Le didn't expect that he would use the word cute to describe a boy who was about the same age as him, but he was indeed very cute. Qian Le secretly glanced at him a few more times and thought secretly in his heart.
The two of them entered the restaurant together, and Heya followed them in. The location design here was very clever, with partitions between each table, forming independent spaces. If you don't want others to hear your conversation, you can set it up as a private space.
Zhou Zhou and Qian Le did not set it up, which was convenient for He Ya who was sitting next to them.
The two of them chatted while eating and seemed to get along very well.
Qian Le considerately did not mention Zhou Zhou's sad story, and only talked about other topics.
Heya listened for a long time. They were basically talking about topics that young people like. Most of the time, the other boy was talking and Zhou Zhou was listening, occasionally agreeing with him.
Didn't seem to hear anything wrong.
Qian Le talked about how it is so hard to make money nowadays. He was kicked out of the house by his parents when he was 18. He has been working in an amusement park in his hometown during holidays and free time. It just so happened that their amusement park also opened an amusement park in the Nightmare City game. The salary here is higher than working offline, so he came here.
After hearing what he said, Zhou Zhou asked curiously, "Is it difficult to earn points?" He was still thinking about earning points to buy his own house.
"Yeah, I earn a hundred points every day, and it takes almost a whole holiday to save enough for tuition."
Qian Le looked at Zhou Zhou who seemed to be thinking about something. He sat very elegantly, and his every move revealed a different manner and upbringing from ordinary people. His family conditions should be very good, and he didn't have to worry about tuition like him...
Thinking of this, Qian Le suddenly slapped his forehead loudly. He was really crazy. Why should he care about other people's family background when making friends? Maybe Zhou Zhou's family had the same concept as his, that one should be self-reliant after the age of eighteen.
"Zhou Zhou, are you making money on your own now or..." If you want to know, you can just ask directly. We are friends, so there is no point in guessing.
Zhou Zhou shook his head. "I have no family, and no way to make money. The points I'm spending now are what I earned in the dungeon before."
Qian Le suddenly felt sorry for the other person and regretted his rude words, asking about the other person's pain.
He was a soft-hearted person, and tears would stream down his face at any slightly sentimental scene. When he heard Zhou Zhou say that, although he didn't cry, his eyes became red again.
Qian Le stood up excitedly: "Don't worry! I will help you make money. As long as I am there, I will never let you starve to death. How much money do you have? Are you running out of money? Let me treat you to this meal."
At worst, he could go home and borrow money from his parents, then pay them back after working.
Zhou Zhou didn’t know why Qian Le was crying again. He seemed to be very fond of crying.
"Thank you. I still have 71,989 points, which is really not much."
Qian Le sat down silently.
So embarrassing.
A hundred times more than all his savings combined.
If he had 70,000 yuan, he would just stay at home and sleep all the time during the holidays.
Suddenly, a faint laugh came from the side. Zhou Zhou turned his head to look, but he couldn't see anything because of the partition.
"Um, Zhou Zhou, how do you make money? Can you tell me a little bit about it?"
Qian Le's red eyes suddenly became sparkling. He looked at Zhou Zhou as if he was looking at interstellar coins. Suddenly he thought of something and said quickly, "If it's inconvenient, forget it."
"I earned it from the novice copy."
Copy? Is it so profitable?
He heard that many people died in the dungeon and it would take a lot of points to revive them.
Currently, many people are still waiting and watching before entering Nightmare City, because the mortality rate in the game dungeon is very high, and each death in the dungeon requires a large number of points to be resurrected. Therefore, those who are more cautious and those who are tight on money should prepare to save up points in the game before entering the game, otherwise they will not even have enough points for resurrection. By that time, the strategies for passing many copies should have been released.
Qian Le had never thought about doing a dungeon before, because several people he knew died while doing novice dungeons and still didn't have enough points to revive themselves, so they could only find ways to make money offline.
There are also a few who don’t have high points even after clearing the level, so he has been working honestly in the amusement park. Now when he heard Zhou Zhou say this, he suddenly felt a little moved.
"You earned this much by clearing several copies."
"one."
Earn 70,000 for one copy!
Qian Le was not only excited, he wanted to take action immediately.
"Zhou Zhou, next time you do a dungeon, can you take me with you?" Qian Le felt embarrassed. He just met the other person today, and he wanted him to help him make money. Would Zhou Zhou think he was shameless?
"Of course you can. I'm glad you're willing to do a dungeon with me."
It was clearly he who proposed it, but Zhou Zhou's words made it sound as if he had proposed it first and was asking for his opinion, which did not embarrass Qian Le at all.
Qian Le looked at Zhou Zhou. The deep blue ocean was flowing slowly behind him. A warm current also flowed through his heart. His face felt a little hot for some reason. He lowered his head in panic and dared not look again.
Although Qian Le is not as good-looking as Zhou Zhou, he has the youthfulness and sunshine that are unique to young people.
One is energetic and sunny, the other is exquisite and exquisite. The two sit at the same table, surrounded by warm lights, looking extremely harmonious.
"Hahahaha, can you take me with you?"
The rough voice broke the atmosphere between the two people like thunder. Zhou Zhou and Qian Le couldn't help but look over. A black shadow enveloped them, making their vision much darker.
