Chapter 33 - To Stream Town
Chapter 33 To Stream Town
At the southern gate outside the City of Light:
As the main transportation route of the City of Light, the transport of goods and resources from the surrounding major cities were all transported into the city through that place. Therefore, compared to the other gates of the City of Light, it was much grander. The two gates that were completely made of alloy were eight meters tall and could easily accommodate it if three large trucks passed through at the same time.
At that moment, there were a total of 10 medium-sized trucks parked in front of the huge alloy gates. Those trucks had been specially modified and could accommodate up to six people at most. They were equipped with an electronic armor that made it difficult for the electronic monsters to break through the truck’s defense and enter the truck to attack the players.
“The B9 Electronic Armor. The Fantasy Light Group is indeed rich. It’ll be great if our Adventurer team’s bus could be equipped with this electronic armor!”
“What are you dreaming about? The B9 Electronic Armor can easily defend against monsters below Level 20 hundreds of times. To equip such a heavy truck, it would require at least 400,000 units of memory fragments.”
“I think it’s good for our Adventurer team to use the Bo Electronic Armor. Although it can only defend against almost 50 attacks from monsters below Level 11, the cost of maintenance is low. The memory fragments required for the B9-model armor is enough for us to equip 10 times.”
Those trucks stopped in the middle of the road and made the merchants and Adventurers from various cities and towns envious. All of them were drooling.
Transportation vehicles were absolute necessities in a field expedition, and they were also the most important.
Although the normal transportation vehicles were made of virtual electronics generated by Fantasy World after they were activated to virtualize, they were probably made of steel. The physical surface of the vehicles was indeed incomparably tough. However, in the face of a virtual electronic monster, physical defense was unable to stop it. Only virtual electronics could block it.
However, the virtual environment generated by Fantasy World was very fragile. Even if it was just a few punches from a Level 1 player, it would still cause damage. If it was completely destroyed, the player’s real body might not be able to pass through, but the virtual electronic body could easily pass through without any obstruction.
Of course, after the electronic body of such a virtual environment was destroyed, the Fantasy World would automatically repair it. However, the repair time varied from 10 minutes to an hour. With so much time, it would be unknown how many battles had ended between the players and the monsters. In the wilderness filled with electronic monsters, it would be very disadvantageous for the players to be restricted to the physical level.
Thus, the electronic armor for transportation vehicles was very important. When they encountered a monster’s ambush, that layer of electronic armor would give the players enough time to prepare for battle. They would not be in a situation where they could not even get a chance to perform and were instantly defeated by the electronic monsters that rushed into the vehicle. At the same time, when they were surrounded by a group of monsters, they could also forcefully break through using the electronic armor. It was quite good for their survival.
The only disadvantage was maintenance. Unlike the automatic repair of the virtual environment, if the electronic armor was damaged, the player would have to repair it. The electronic armor was a type of electronic tool and would not automatically repair itself.
“Sister Su, it’s time to leave. Isn’t Miss Qin coming?” A petite woman wearing a leather outfit and a pair of AR glasses that looked like sunglasses walked to the front row of the trucks and asked curiously, “If we don’t leave now, I’m afraid that we won’t be able to reach our designated rest house today.”
The transportation of resources in the surrounding cities and towns of the City of Light had been planned, and it was also a result of hundreds of years of experience. Only by following the original plan would it be the safest to transport resources along the way. They would reduce the losses in all aspects to the minimum and would encounter fewer monsters.
The most important thing was the rest house.
The rest houses along the way were the few safe areas where people would not be attacked by monsters. It allowed people to rest at ease. After all, after a series of battles, people would also be tired. They were not robots.
If they could not get a certain amount of rest, their combat efficiency would decrease. A decrease in combat efficiency would naturally cause them to spend more time in battles and it would easily affect their scheduled arrival time.
“I don’t know. I heard that there’s a big problem at the marketing department of the group, and Miss Qin is dealing with it.” The delicate woman, whose name was Su Tongwei, shook her head slightly. “But this logistics transportation of ours is very important. I think Miss Qin will be here soon.”
As the captain of that logistics transportation team, Su Tongwei rarely knew that that transportation was related to the future of the Fantasy Light Group.
In order to ensure that the salt in Stream Town could be transported back to the City of Light as soon as possible, they even specially got 10 medium-sized trucks with the B9 Electronic Armor. It was obvious how much the group valued that transportation.
As Su Tongwei was chatting with the petite woman, a lean young man in the last row of the convoy suddenly ran in front of a burly man who was two meters tall.
“Brother Wang, the family has already sent news. This time, Qin Lianyue will definitely not be able to follow the convoy to Stream Town. When the time comes, she will definitely go and ask Uncle Lei, who is the Deputy General Manager of the logistics department, to come over.” The lean young man smiled smugly and said, “After this journey, Brother Wang, you will definitely be promoted again to Department Manager, and you will lead a transportation team independently.”
“Of course.” Wang Zhonghu’s eyes burned with desire.
Previously, as the four major families were managing the logistics department, although he had not become an Intermediate Adventurer, he was still appointed as the Department Manager because he was the genius of the families. He could lead a transportation team independently.
However, now that Qin Lianyue was in charge of the logistics department, he naturally wasn’t able to keep his position as a Department Manager anymore. Currently, he could only be the team leader of a five-man team in the transportation team. That was only possible because he was a genius of the four major families. Otherwise, he would only be a mere vice-captain. Compared to being a team leader who could lead 40 people alone in the past, it was a far cry.
Naturally, although he was only a team leader now, in the entire transportation team, other than Su Tongwei, the team captain, who didn’t listen to him, the other two vice-captains listened to him. After all, that transportation team was originally an elite logistics team formed for the hunting team. Most of them were members of the four major families. Now that Qin Lianyue managed the logistics department, she gave the position of the team captain to Su Tongwei.
Although he was very resentful and dissatisfied with Su Tongwei, he couldn’t help but admire her strength.
She was only 21 years old, yet she was already an Intermediate Adventurer at AR Level 16. In the future, she might not even need to wait until she was 25 years old to become a Senior Adventurer at AR Level 20.
While Wang Zhonghu and the lean young man were chatting happily, a luxurious black maglev limousine arrived before the convoy and four people alighted.
As the four people from the vehicle appeared in front of the convoy, Wang Zhonghu’s expression changed abruptly and his eyes were filled with astonishment.
“Lu Jin! Why is he here?” Wang Zhonghu was surprised to see Lu Jin alight from the car.
Wang Zhonghu was filled with resentment toward Lu Jin.
If he had not been careless that time, he would have been able to defeat Lu Jin with the advantage of his five senses. However, because of his carelessness, Lu Jin’s status in the City of Light was established.
Actually, Wang Zhonghu wasn’t the only one who was surprised. The rest of the team was also shocked.
As the son-in-law of the Xia family, shouldn’t he be enjoying his life and improving himself comfortably in the Bestial Battle Arena downtown?
Why would he come to that dangerous place?
“Little Su, CEO Lu will be heading to Stream Town with you guys. I won’t be going.” Qin Lianyue looked at Su Tongwei, who was still in a daze, and said, “CEO Lu will be the leader of the entire convoy. Are you all okay with that?”
When Su Tongwei heard that, she hurriedly replied, “No problem!”
Su Tongwei was well aware of Qin Lianyue’s words. Although Lu Jin was the leader of the convoy that time, she, as the team captain, had to take good care of him.
“I’ll have to trouble all of you then.” Lu Jin smiled at Su Tongwei.
“It’s no trouble at all. Since CEO Lu is going, why don’t you take the car in the front with us?” Su Tongwei did not dare to be careless. Since Qin Lianyue had handed Lu Jin over to her, she had to be responsible for Lu Jin’s safety. After all, Lu Jin was the most precious person in the Xia family now. Countless influential families in the City of Light had designs on that son-in-law of the Xia family.
Lu Jin, Xu Xiaotian and Tang Yan got into Su Tongwei’s vehicle together.
“Brother Wang, what should we do now?” The lean young man looked at Lu Jin, who was joining them, and couldn’t help but say anxiously, “That Lu Jin is the General Manager of the logistics department. He can also authorize the handover of the goods at Stream Town.”
Wang Zhonghu also stared fixedly at Lu Jin, who had boarded the leading truck. The corner of his mouth revealed a hint of a cold smile as he said, “Qin Lianyue is really ruthless. She actually made Lu Jin personally take this trip. Pass this message to the rest: ‘Slow down the pace along the way.’ I want to see how Lu Jin will complete the mission!”
“Alright! I’ll inform the brothers in the convoy now.”
The lean young man nodded and walked quickly to the other trucks.
At the southern gate outside the City of Light:
As the main transportation route of the City of Light, the transport of goods and resources from the surrounding major cities were all transported into the city through that place.
