Chapter 384: Chapter 353 Returning Home
Itâs here.
Li Chengâs expression tightened, the news field has a saying: "The fewer the words, the greater the event."
This time, the script taskâs name was only "Homecoming," which likely meant trouble.
He quickly instructed the intelligent core a few commands and then strode out of the Toy Factory.
The cylindrical robots busy on the assembly line saw him leaving, quickly chased out, excitedly waving vertical flags to send him off.
Some robots were so excited that their electronic eyes even sprayed out green battery fluid like tears.
Isnât this a bit exaggerated.
Li Cheng left the killing field with a head full of black lines, returned to the real world, and called Gray Rain who was picking his nose to start preparations.
He allocated the two attribute points from the last level up to strength and agility respectively, now his panel was:
After thorough preparations, Li Cheng turned off the living room lights, drew the curtains, and quietly waited.
Without any warning, without any tremor,
Li Cheng opened his eyes to find himself standing in a coastal forest.
The sky was gloomy, a fine drizzle like silk, looking to the right, through the trees, he could see the vast ocean and smell the salty fishy sea breeze.
Looking forward, he could barely make out a simple tea house built beside a yellow earthen road, and a large crowd gathered under its eaves.
About fifty people, men and women, old and young, dressed either luxuriously or simply, some with swords and bows at their waists or backs.
âLooks like a script task with an ancient background.â
Li Chengâs eyelid twitched, a sense of unease gradually brewed.
His current level was Lv20, carrying two Epic items and a bunch of Perfect quality gear. His equipment was luxurious enough to rival Lv25 or even Lv30 Transcendents.
If he went all out, even in a modern battlefield, he could cut through armored torrents.
Because of this, this ancient background task was likely problematic....
[In the 42nd year of Ming Yongâan, Holy Monarch ruled the country, selecting worthy individuals and employing them, enforcing clear laws, implementing benevolent governance, and working diligently and accepting good counsel
, eventually achieving a clear river and peaceful sea, prosperous people and nation]
Hey, thatâs a bit too exaggerated.
Li Chengâs eye twitched, task briefings are usually truthful, the use of narrative tricks is very small.
Piling up so many praise words on a feudal emperor, are you the reincarnation of Han Wen, or Li Er with an alternate account?
Ming Dynasty doesnât have the Yongâan era.
The moment the task briefing ended, Li Chengâs hand sank, a palm-sized copper plate appeared out of thin air.
On the front of the copper plate was inscribed the text of the birthday banquet invitation, "Congratulations on reaching old age, sincerely invite you all, October 10th, Red Island, awaiting your presence"
While the reverse side was engraved with various marine life images. Fish, shrimp, crab, shellfish, sea snakes, octopus, turtles, sharks, whales...
All images were lifelike, the lower the creature, the larger its size, except the bottom of the copper plate had a circular blank area occupying one-third of the space.
It had a kind of uncomfortable feeling that strongly bothered those with OCD.
Neither side of the copper plate had any invited personâs information, Li Cheng scanned it with Information Integration Glasses but found nothing unusual, so he took out the Electronic Pet Egg and released Gray Rain.
"Sss, the smell of the sea."
Gray Rain just landed, took a deep breath of the salty fishy sea breeze, and said excitedly, "Who are we going to fight?"
"Weâre not fighting anyone, this time weâre attending a banquet."
Li Cheng sighed helplessly, just then, the system prompt sounded,
Li Cheng narrowed his eyes, gently pushed his glasses, "This is bad..."
"Whatâs wrong?"
Li Cheng explained the task briefing to Gray Rain, ". This sentence at least reveals four pieces of information.
One, only taking the boat with the invitation is the correct way to proceed.
Using a speedboat to smuggle or forcibly entering without the invitation will result in a miserable fate."
Gray Rain thought for a moment, "Like encountering sea monsters?"
"Thatâs a possibility. Also, it might simply mean you canât find the right position of Red Island."
Li Cheng nodded, donât underestimate those NPCs under the tea house wearing Ming Dynasty clothing, the first rule for players is never to underestimate the natives of the script world.
There are relevant cases on the forum, a group of players reached a medieval task world, confirmed after much investigation that itâs the Middle Ages, thought they were capable, punching the Roman Empire, kicking the Church Pope.
Dominating left and right, then suddenly found a thousand-year-old subway tunnel underground â turns out itâs a post-apocalyptic human civilization rebuilt.
A small countryâs princess, who was oppressed, sacrificed her life, summoned a near-earth orbital satellite cannon, blasting the group of players into smithereens, only the action cameras returned to the real world.
In short, never underestimate the natives of the Otherworld, who knows if a muddy-faced villager carrying a hoe might have mastered Star Destroyer, Retraction Cannon, Two-directional Foil Technology.
Li Cheng continued to analyze, "The second point, you have to stay on Red Island during the banquet, canât leave early.
Third, the banquet cannot be halted or interrupted early.
Fourth, the closer to the end of the banquet, the more dangerous it becomes."
This point is quite strange, since itâs called an island, its area surely wonât be small.
Once Li Cheng activates Insect Form, his defensive power rivals a main battle tank, at worst he can have Gray Rain turn into a ball, hide inside, withstand volcanic eruptions or high-intensity earthquakes.
What kind of danger could threaten Li Cheng?
The two stood in place and deliberated for a while, but couldnât find an answer. As the rain grew heavier, Li Cheng took out a hot water bottle from the three-dimensional warehouse
