Chapter 15 Veterans
The wind was howling, and a summer rain was about to hit Storm City, while more than a dozen three-winged spacecraft flew into the lightning and thunder through the open channel.
Lei Jingtian sat near the porthole as usual, admiring the purple electric beam wandering in the sky outside. The dark clouds almost condensed into lead blocks. Such bad weather was really ordinary for Storm City in the south.
In the huge cabin of the spacecraft, there are nearly a thousand other players. Unlike usual, they have the same purpose of leaving a safe city in this thunderstorm. They and Lei Jingtian are also employed by Chuangge Electronics, one of the five most powerful player groups in Storm City.
Like the other four major player groups, there is also a large real-life company behind Chuangge Electronics. The base of players in the second world is too large, and it completely represents the main consumer group. Therefore, many real-life companies have taken a fancy to the huge business opportunities contained therein and have used a large amount of manpower and material resources to dig out gold and silver. What they want is the advertising effect and eye-catching economy. The game companies operating in the second world are even more happy to see it. There is no high threshold for such things that are beneficial to both parties. This can be seen from the definition of the level name of the player group organization: the team-club-company-group, which completely takes into account the actual needs of these wealthy and powerful people.
However, games are games after all, and their rules and reality are very different. If a company wants to gain roots and flourish in a city, it cannot be separated from the support of many players. Therefore, these companies pay great attention to winning over players and maintaining their own image, and a group of players benefit from it.
This time, Chuangge Electronics Company used 5,000 senior players and hired 3,000 professional experts to form the largest joint legion since the opening of the Storm City server. According to the limited information obtained by Lei Jingtian, the main purpose of this mission was to encircle and annihilate the Boss located in the Tesla ruins twenty kilometers east of the land destination D033. This level 45 BOSS has the skill to control the Force of Fire, and there is no other accurate information. It is said that the pitiful news was that Chuangge Electronics Company lost hundreds of scouts.
Lei Jingtian knew that Chuangge Company must have hidden a lot of inside information, but he did not intend to devote himself to this mere 300 credit points. As long as he met the basic requirements of the contract, the most important thing is to open his eyes and see if he could take advantage of the troubled waters.
The D033 land destination is more remote than the Hornet Valley. The spacecraft has just set off, and the LCD screen hanging on the bulkhead will take at least an hour to reach it. Therefore, players who know or don’t know in the cabin chat with each other to pass the boring journey. Among the hundreds of players in this ordinary cabin, none of them are known to Lei Jingtian. Musket snipers are originally a lonely profession, and Lei Jingtian has always been alone, so he is too lazy to come forward to make fun of it.
"Well! Brother, can I sit here?"
A rough voice interrupted Lei Jingtian's hypocrisy. He opened his eyes in surprise and saw a muscular strong man two meters tall and wearing a dark green Kailaf field suit standing in front of him, looking at him with a smile.
Lei Jingtian noticed that he was carrying a huge gun box in his hand, which was three times the size of the RPF1500 exterior.
"Oh, sit there casually, there is no one here." Lei Jingtian scratched his head and said, his position close to the porthole, and he was the only one in two rows and four seats.
The thick and strong man was not polite, and sat on the opposite side of Lei Jingtian. One person completely occupied the two people's positions. Although Lei Jingtian was also very strong, he was quite awesome compared to this person. The strong man put the gun box heavily on the ground, and the dull echo made Lei Jingtian's eyebrows jump!
"Metal Storm PCY-3200 Six-barrel Machine Gun?" Lei Jingtian asked, pointing to the gun box on the ground. The strong man grinned and raised his thumbs up at Lei Jingtian: "Brother is indeed an expert, you can understand it at a glance."
He took out a silver cigarette box from his arms and opened it, pulled out two from a row of thick cigars, and handed it to Lei Jingtian: "My name is a veteran, a level 35 heavy machine gunner. He usually stayed in a club. Look at his brother's appearance, he is a sniper. Which unit came out of the past? Before I retreated, I was from Beiwei."
Some things can be seen at a glance, and they can be seen through at a glance, just like this player named Veteran can point out the identity of Lei Jingtian. Lei Jingtian has also long seen that the other party has been in the army and is not an ordinary soldier.
"Tiger doesn't eat people, please call me tiger. I used to be in the Xishu Special Team, but now I'm unemployed and playing games at home to earn some living expenses. I'm not going to catch up with this job to join in the fun. I didn't expect to meet a comrade-in-arms!" Lei Jingtian took the cigar and ordered it for himself without hesitation.
Although the relationship is different, I have eaten the same meal and resisted the same gun. Similar experiences have made two men with similar personalities quickly become friends.
"When you meet a comrade, it is definitely a fate that you can ride on the same boat. Tiger, you and the club don't seem to be doing well?" The veteran asked with some emotion. There is no need for hypocritical politeness between you.
"I only like to do it alone. I usually introduce some work to my friends to fight cold guns, so I can barely get enough food and clothing!" Lei Jingtian smiled. He understood the kindness of the veteran. Although he is a musketeer profession, no matter what aspect he looks at, the veteran is much better than him. Not to mention the expensive PCY-3200, even the Kailaf field suit on his body can't be handled with just a few dollars. Heavy machine gunners are even more expensive professions.
"Well, I'm also introduced by a friend today. To be honest, I'm not optimistic about this action, so I didn't call a group of friends from the club. Since we are here, why don't we form a team together and take care of each other!" The veteran gave up on the idea of Lare's shocking entry into his club, and instead made a suggestion.
Lei Jingtian happily agreed that the veteran was a heavy machine gunner with a medium attack range and within a close range, while he was a long-range sniper, and the two were just right.
The two sides hit it off, but the voyage was still long, so they simply opened up and started talking. They laughed even more when they were happy, which made the players around them look at each other frequently.
After an hour of flight, a beautiful prompt sound finally came from the loudspeaker on the top of the bulkhead, and the land route number D033 is about to arrive.
When the spacecraft stopped, players who had already been suffocated in the cabin flocked out and rushed to breathe the fresh air in the wild.
However, when they walked out of the cabin door, they were shocked because the entire land route was already full of people. Players who arrived early were noisy to confirm their identities and wait for the formation under the arrangement of Chuangge Company staff. Usually, they were organized together for convenient command and dispatch.
The powerful armored warrior, the mysterious and elegant energy controller, the careless mercenary, the mecha master with the mecha, and the doctor carrying the medicine box. All the major battle responsibilities in the game can be seen here. Thousands of people are crowded together and hustle and bustle this land destination into a vegetable market, which has caused the commanders of the Chuangge Company.
Commander is also an important profession in the game. It is absolutely unimaginable if there is no commander in a large group of players.
The last group of players also landed at the Land Airlines point a few minutes later. Other leveling players who had nothing to do with the mission were shocked by such momentum and were far away early in the morning. Chuangge Company sent dozens of carrying off-road vehicles to transport the players who had formed the team to the near the Tesla ruins in batches.
