flying switch

"No clock?"

The roof door of the library was pushed open, Zhong Rong turned his head and saw Jiu, who had changed into the costume of the Phoenix Gang, walking step by step, and sat beside him: "Watch the sunrise."

The morning light painted the fast sky, and the two sat on the edge of the roof, with their feet suspended thousands of feet above the ground.

The surroundings of Rumeng gradually became active, and many shops opened up around it, attracting many free players and hunters.Although it is not as prosperous as the current gang, this place is not so invisible from top to bottom. At least, Godzilla's old friends have appeared in the field of vision again.

"They're back together again." Zhong Rong swayed his legs, tiptoeing down a thousand feet, and the slimy Godzilla was passing through the gate like a dream.

"It's the season of love, isn't it?" Jiu's shoulder rubbed against him, and when Zhong Rong turned his head, the kind of eyes he loved came with a smile, making his heart liven up.

Rubies, gold coins, pocket watches, cold water drops, beak statues, these are the five treasures they have collected, and now there are only two left, three arrows made of feathers and void wood, and the return of fruit.

"My birthday is coming." Zhong Rong said without thinking.

[-] paused, doubts flashed in his eyes.He recalled what he said just now, thoughtfully: "Have you thought about your birthday wish yet?"

Confess to you after getting all the treasures.Zhong Rong replied to him in his heart and nodded superficially.

"Then I have to think about your gift and guess your wish," Jiu approached him and smiled, "After all, this is your coming-of-age gift."

Coming of age.

Zhong Rong suddenly remembered that Qian Shuichong, who had just had breakfast together, would say goodbye to him after this birthday.These days, they eat three meals together, go shopping in the supermarket, and take occasional walks. They are not like Zhong Rong planned, but they have become familiar with each other unavoidably.

"No clock? Are you all right?"

[-] A worried voice interrupted his thoughts, only then did Zhong Rong realize that his brows were already furrowed.He exhaled deeply, tried his best to raise a smile and shook his head: "I'm fine."

It has been a long time since sunrise, and most of the sun's body is above the horizon.Zhong Rong stood up: "Let's go to the Holy Land of Death."

According to the plan, they teleported to the free zone near the Holy Land of Death after sunrise, and then searched for feathers in the order of the warehouse - the backyard of the cockscomb head - the hanging waterfall - the unknown world.The warehouse has the most workload, but Alai and Moon have worked out a remote search method together. As long as Zhong Rong and Jiu put the small machines in the warehouse, Alai and Moon can search remotely and safely for a long time.Except for the warehouse, the other three places need to be searched at close range. In order to deal with all kinds of strange creatures and the Phoenix Gang in the Holy Land of the Dead, Alai stayed up for several days to design a few large bags of props for them. It was all given to them.

More than a week of preparation, just for today's action.

The bright sunlight disappeared completely after closing and opening the eyes, and dark clouds enveloped the entire free zone.Zhong Rong and [-] stepped out of the teleportation point at the Strange Beast Taxidermy Shop, and nodded to the free players in the corner.The free player is the contact person arranged by MOON here, responsible for confirming the safe route.At this time, there are very few active members of the Phoenix Gang, let alone their habit of never going to the roof. The person in charge stared at it for several days to confirm, and finally confirmed the safest route.

The free player looked up at the two and pointed his finger up, signaling them to go to the roof.

When they walked through the small door on the roof, the route information transmitted by the automatic identification data appeared on their transformed eyepieces, just in case, one person on one side, overlapping together is the complete route.

The roof is bumpy and rugged, mixed with various unpleasant smells. Venom occupies the market here, and the monsters in the Holy Land of the Dead have meat, bones, poison, blood, etc. as raw materials.Try to avoid many large shops in the route—those are basically opened by people from the Phoenix Gang, leading from the simple and narrow beams all the way to the main entrance of the Holy Land of Death.

Zhong Rong let out a breath, facing the gate sign of the Phoenix Gang—a phoenix covered in mud, its tail connected to the torch of the gate, like Nirvana.

The motorcycle stopped next to the skateboard, and Qian Shuichong looked down at the gate of the Phoenix Gang. The mud there was extremely muddy, covered with all kinds of ruts, and a mess of raw materials were dropped, sinking into the mud.Fluorescence's route ended here, and he raised his hand to send out the half-finger-sized mechanical bird, which mixed into the monitoring birds of the Phoenix Gang itself, and the route extended from there, pointing to the direction of the warehouse.

The mechanical bird's field of vision is not very wide, and it can only point out the direction of the target 100 meters ahead, but it can move, and Qian Shuichong knows the location of the four locations very well, which is not a disadvantage.In fact, the main function of the mechanical bird is a strong fixed-point signal shielding function, which means that as long as Zhong Rong and Qian Shuichong are within [-] square meters directly below the mechanical bird, they will not be caught by the monitoring of the Phoenix Gang. Just avoid the Phoenix Gang who will run into each other face to face.To put it bluntly, this is their layer of "shield", blocking the Phoenix Gang outside the range, so that they will not be surrounded by a large number of Phoenix Gang.

By the way, the mechanical bird can also capture the abnormality of the monitoring bird flock - usually when the Phoenix Gang notices something - and report it to the two, allowing them to react in time or even retreat.

Qian Shuichong put away the motorcycle, held Zhong Rong's extended hand, and stood with him on the self-extending skateboard—they couldn't leave traces, but the hoverboard is hard to leave obvious traces on the mud, so it is the best transportation.

Zhong Rong gave up the driver's area so that Qian Shuichong could take them to the correct destination.His Hidden Gun is fully loaded, and the knuckle knife is hidden in the palm of his hand.Qian Shuichong's silver knife was ready to go in his cuff, and his silver gun was pinned to his waist. As a cover, the Phoenix Gang's costume also had hidden weapons, various small bullets, and small weapon props.

The two looked at each other, and quickly rushed into the gate from the short safe route given by the mechanical bird. Under the dark clouds as dark as the night, they rushed into the muddy ground covered with rocky mountains at the gate with few people, and entered the first district of the Phoenix Gang. There is an entire district away from their nearest general warehouse.

The flock of monitoring birds flew over the rocky mountain, and the sound of metal wings fluttered together, like a knife hanging above the head.At this time, the mechanical start-up sound of the mechanical bird, which was invisible, sounded like a shield covering its head, which was very reassuring.

The rocky mountain area is huge, and there are many places to hide. The sleeve gun failed to stick out of the cuff once, and the skateboard and the two who merged into the darkness arrived behind the last rocky mountain facing the main entrance of the warehouse.

There are more monitoring birds, densely packed like a swarm of bees on the warehouse door, making goose bumps buzzing.The mechanical bird hovered near the heads of the two of them. Facing the flock of monitoring birds, the scene of a mantis holding a car was completely reappeared.It looks so small, but the surveillance birds are as big as black clouds across the sky.

The muddy ground leading to the warehouse gate was churning, and the two people hiding behind the rocky mountain jumped up tacitly, and the skateboard with enhanced suspension ability obediently supported the two people, allowing them to avoid the restless mud bubble.

The fishy smell emanated from the burst mud bubble, Zhong Rong frowned, and quickly raised his hand to switch [-]'s mask to the odor shielding mode.

The smell disappeared in an instant, Zhong Rong looked at [-]'s eyepiece, and saw the hand on his mask—[-] also finished adjusting his mask at the same time.Their hands crossed to touch each other's masks, and at the same time they saw themselves on the other's masks.

Zhong Rong smiled silently.

"Ouch!" A sound of retching suddenly came from behind Shi Shan, and Zhong Rong quickly pulled [-] to squat down, completely hiding behind Shi Shan's entity.There was a hole in his back, and he leaned back slowly to get closer to it.

A pair of legs full of rivets "swished" over the tip of his nose. He was startled, dragged by [-], and barely made a sound.

[-] motioned him to be stable, and asked who was coming by gesture.

It's the Phoenix Gang.Zhong Rong answered with gestures.

"Ouch! It stinks!" A much clearer sound of retching came from above them, and the Phoenix Gang that Zhong Rong saw first was leaning on the other side of the stone mountain, complaining to the side, "Why are you so unlucky today?"

Another Phoenix gang walked towards him, screaming: "You ask me, who am I asking? I didn't draw lots! Tell you, feed the monster yourself, and I will get the feed."

"Hey——" Rivet grabbed him, "You lost the guess! I'll go to the warehouse to get the feed."

Qian Shuichong's heart moved, and he took out the small machine given by Alai from the inventory (the dormant machine is just a ball the size of a marble, and after it is activated, it will change into an undetectable form, such as a mouse, a bug, etc.), Handed it over to Zhong Rong in front of him, gestured and said: Find an opportunity to put it on the person who went to the warehouse.

Holding the small machine, Zhong Rong shook his head hesitantly when he heard the tone of the two people on the other side of the rockery saying that they were pretending not to go to the warehouse at the same time: These two people are unreliable.

Jiguantou's residence is just behind the warehouse. Qian Shuichong looked around at the rocky mountain that almost surrounded them, and then looked at the mechanical bird on his head. His eyes lit up: after attracting them to the rocky mountain, this is a blind spot, and there are only these two phoenixes nearby. help.

With no other Phoenix gang nearby, it wasn't hard to attract attention by making noises that only four people could hear.After that, quickly deal with them in a blind spot, and then pretend to be them and go to the residence of Jiguantou, so that a door that needs to be laboriously sneaked in can be avoided.

Zhong Rong instantly understood what he meant, and let out his sleeves.The skateboard rotated [-] degrees silently, and the two stood on both sides of the skateboard, hidden in the shadows on both sides of the stone mountain. The skateboard was pitch black, as if it was a shadow of the stone mountain on the mud.

Ready, Zhong Rong saw [-] nodding at him, licking his lips, and blowing a frivolous whistle in a somewhat rusty but vivid way.

"Hoo-oh~"

The Phoenix Gang in the quarrel was quiet at the same time. Zhong Rong could feel that they were looking over suspiciously, so he took advantage of the victory to pursue and blew the same whistle again.

Qian Shuichong tilted his head, looked at Zhong Rong who was whistling in front of him, and finally found the bastard who robbed him of a mission a year ago.His target was snatched away by this frivolous whistle, and he lost the generous rewards on the top few lists. He still couldn't find the whistler, and MOON was devastated. Seven bottles of nail polish in wonderful colors.

The past.

Qian Shuichong laughed, and easily held the silver gun with the silencer on, aiming at the rivet that Zhong Rong had attracted all the way.

Zhong Rong pointed at the shrill voice, and heard the indistinct "click, click" as he walked step by step from the mud and approached the stone mountain pass. He saw him poking his head out with the rivet and squinting his eyes to search the stone mountains on both sides. , stopping the whistle before they could locate themselves.

Rivet opened his eyes wide and stepped into the mud between the two sides of the stone mountain: "Who..."

"call out--"

The bullet from the Hidden Gun sank between his eyebrows, his eyes rolled up, and he fell to the mud, turning into a pile of data remains.Jian Sheng's eyes widened, seeing the silvery white flashing past the corner, he didn't even think about throwing a hidden weapon.

The hidden weapon collided with the fast-moving silver bullet, and was bounced away by the momentum. At the moment when the hidden weapon was powerless and fell on the muddy ground with a high-pitched sound, the silver bullet flew with the momentum of breaking bamboo and pierced through the squeal without any pause. Spiky skull.

The data remains were neatly piled up in a line, and the two people on the skateboard did not move. They waited quietly for half a minute, and after confirming that no one was paying attention, they slowly drifted towards the data remains.

After putting on the clothes of the Phoenix Gang, Zhong Rong discovered why they were able to walk directly on the mud.The shoes of the Phoenix Gang are very special. They usually look like ordinary shoes, but when they fall on the mud, they stick out the support like the webbed palm of a bird, which allows them to stand firmly on the mud. At the same time, it can also Reduce the sound of their walking on mud, so they don't make a loud noise like normal people stepping on mud.

This is more advanced than the props that [-] used a year ago. Zhong Rong remembered the props that Moon replied to him when he asked "the secret of [-]'s smooth walking": "Moon didn't give us this kind of props this time."

"These shoes are inconvenient to move quickly and will leave marks," Qian Shuichong replied. "It is better to use a skateboard when it is not necessary."

Zhong Rong nodded, getting used to this kind of shoes on the mud floor, and looked at the original owner's task: "Then it is necessary now, let's go, go to the warehouse to get the feed, and then look at the backyard of Jiguantou."

Smiling, Qian Shuichong took the small robot ball from his palm and played with it: "It's time for Alai and Moon to start working."
