Chapter 2 Secret Channel

After more than an hour of rushing on the sea, May suddenly said, "Your ship has observation equipment?"

"Of course, this is a guide ship."

"Then find out if there are any nearby islands."

"Is it an island?" the captain said to a player next to the console: "Activate the Sky Eye System and project the picture to the full analysis platform."

An octagonal platform suddenly rose in the center of the command room, and then its surface flashed, and a small boat appeared in the center of the table, and two islands were displayed not far away. May's eyes were almost glaring out, and he rushed to the table with excitement and looked left and right, and finally couldn't help asking: "Is this a complete analysis of the nearby area?"

I nodded. "Use the bionic sonar system in the water and the optical crystal in the air medium, and then rely on the magic array technology to integrate the new full analysis projection platform. The maximum radius of action is 700 kilometers, and it can be enlarged to the maximum to find the people falling into the water floating on the water surface. However, this thing is quite expensive. Currently, only Watchmen and Super Battleships are equipped with this system. You just asked if we have an observation system. Are you looking for these two islands?"

May nodded. "Our goal is here." May refers to a crescent-shaped island, surrounded by the crescent moon, and it seems that it can be driven directly into it.

"You saw Bai Yu Qilin and the others here?"

"right."

"So of course you're sure you saw them enter there?"

May said: "I know what you mean, don't worry. I have a magic pet. Although I don't have any combat ability, he can keep in touch with me at any time. I am still monitoring the people you are looking for through him."

"What? You can see their situation now?"

"Of course." May said: "A large part of the reason I chose the Musketeer profession is because of this magic pet. It is useless to ordinary people, but to me it is simply the best. I can see that white jade unicorn is chasing those strange guys. To be honest, I have never seen such a strong fighting creature before. It is more than a thousand times stronger than the big boss I encountered when I leveled up."

Since May was able to see me, I felt much more relieved and sat back in my seat easily and said, "What boss are you talking about?"

May was stunned for a moment, but said: "The giant stone crane in the stone forest in Sichuan is a monster of nine hundred levels, which is very powerful. I was only more than six hundred at that time, and I had a lucky chance to kill it. But it was incomparable to this white jade unicorn. It would be great if I could have such a magic pet!"

"Hahahaha... Don't be so arrogant! I only dare to let her be a bodyguard for our guild. You actually want her to be a demon pet? I admire you!"

"I just think about it. I know there is no hope for something of this level. At that time, the giant stone solid was only 900 and almost killed me. This white jade unicorn is at least 1,900. It is probably like pinching an ants to deal with us."

"Don't call the White Jade Qilin, the White Jade Qilin, her name is Yinxue, she is a very cute lady. In addition, she is not level 1,900, but level 15,000."

"What? Level 15,000? "Zero" has this high level setting?"

"It seems that you rarely contact senior personnel." I explained: "Zero has different levels of different personnel. The highest level of players was 1,000, but recently the 10,000 system was opened. That is to say, the maximum level can be upgraded to 10,000. However, the method of adding experience value has not changed, so 10,000 is only the theoretical level. If you really want to upgrade to 10,000, you have to be prepared to continue leveling for 10,000 years. I guess even if someone like me who is very lucky and strong like me, it should be almost the top level to 1,200, and 300. As for ordinary players, 1,000 level is their limit. However, the above refers to players, and this rule does not apply to npcs and monsters."

"So the monsters may be at a higher level, right?"

"The monster land level is generally higher than that of players, because as the level increases, the player's combat power will increase faster than the monster's combat power. Under normal circumstances, players at level 100 will find it difficult to deal with monsters at level 100. If you don't have particularly good luck, you can basically think that you will lose. Therefore, before level 200, everyone chose low-level monsters to fight."

May nodded: "Everyone is coming from newcomers. Before level 200, I always found monsters seven or eight lower than myself to fight."

"Oh, you're pretty good at that. Most players choose monsters that are ten levels lower than themselves, and many people form teams to bully low-level monsters."

"What about you? Are you also choosing a monster at a lower level than you?"

I smiled. "My situation is a bit different from you. Because I just left the novice village and had a one-stop, I was fighting monsters higher and higher. But this is just my personal special situation. Most players call the "more-level battles" that refers to the "more-level battles" that multiple players actually refer to the "more-level battles" that are more than multiple people to fight monsters. It is not like me to fight monsters higher and higher alone. If there is not a dragon like me, then fighting monsters higher and higher alone is basically the same as suicide."

"You are so awesome."

"This is nothing, it's just a little good luck and some adaptability. But at least everyone admits that it's difficult for players to deal with monsters on the same level as their own before level 200. But then it's different. As the level increases, players begin to choose to be on the same level as themselves, or even monsters that are several levels higher to earn reward experience points for monsters over the level. And as the level increases further, the gap will become bigger and bigger. Now, it's basically no problem for players at level 800 to tie with monsters at level 900. But when the player reaches level 1,000, the monsters are even worse than players. Therefore, the highest level of wild monsters is level 1,500, and the maximum limit is here."

"Then you can kill all enemies when you encounter them now?" Mayyue asked in confusion.

I shook my head: "It's not what you think. Although the monster is only at level 1,500, do you know what a monster is?"

May shook his head.

I continued: "Monsters actually refer to those combat creatures specially used for upgrading players. Their characteristics are that they are generally low in intelligence and are mostly wildlife. They are just some fixed dead objects in this game, which actually has nothing to do with the background structure of the game. But most players are actually fighting monsters, while those who really understand this game are fighting NPC like me."

"npc? Do you mean the individuals in the city who are manipulated by the system?"

"It's not only the city, but also all organized creatures outside the city, and some individuals who exist for special tasks and game backgrounds. They all have npc. The level of npc starts at level 400. I don't know what the upper limit is, but I know that the npcs that can fight us will not exceed 20,000, because in "Zero", the basic level of the upper gods is 20,000, and the one who meets this standard is the upper god. But the upper gods do not participate in the battle, so the highest creatures that fight us may not exceed 20,000. For example, the Heavenly Court of our country is a typical Npc force. Among them, the leader of Hong Jun is probably a guy close to 20,000. As for their super thugs, most of them are concentrated between 8,000 and 18,000. I have seen a phoenix of 10,000 before, which is very fierce."

"What level are the four sacred beasts?"

"I don't know how much it is, but it's more than 17,000."

"So the three major national protection beasts are not as powerful as the four saint beasts?"

"That's not. I can't tell you the specific reason. You just need to know that the three major national guardian beasts are not completely in full. Yin Xue is currently the highest level among them. Now she has level 15,000, and she has hope to reach the standard of level 20,000 in the future."

May stretched out his tongue and sighed, "It turns out that they are all great people!"

The captain suddenly turned around and said, "We have arrived, how should we go afterwards?"

Only then did I notice that the ship speed had slowed down. At this time, we were at the gap in the Crescent Island, and a little further forward was the Inner Bay. I looked at May and asked, "You are the guide, and you have the final say on what to go afterwards."

May said: "The big ship will be useless after that, just put the small boat down."

"Then let's change the boat."

May and I came to the stern of the boat, and then summoned Lucky to help put the little dolphin on the stern of the boat into the water. The dolphin land was about the same size as the electric boat in the park. It was just that it was a little longer. After putting down the boat, I took Lucky back and jumped up, and May also jumped down. I waved my hand and asked the captain to drive the boat back to Aisinger, so they didn't have to worry about the problem of going back.

After the big ship left, I sat on the operating position of the dolphin. The operation of this kind of small boat is very simple, and it controls the direction and diving through an object similar to a transporter joystick. The thruster is controlled by two foot pedals. The left foot is back and the right foot is moving forward. The heavier the step, the faster it runs. In addition, there is a main switch on the control panel, with the shutdown on the left, the low-speed mode in the middle, and the high-speed mode on the right. Such things are simply easy for people who are used to modern electrical appliances. They can easily operate even if they are seated for the first time.

I turned the start switch to high-speed mode, and my right foot was slightly pressed, and the little dolphin immediately jumped out. Although this little thing is not big, its power is not small at all, and its speed is amazingly fast. May didn't expect that this thing started so hard that it almost flipped into the back seat.

"Damn, why are your guild's things so strong?"

"Hehe, the horsepower means we have strong technical strength! By the way. Where are you talking about? Tell me quickly."

"You just drive there first. You will see it when you get there."

I stepped on the pedal to the bottom, and the dolphin immediately accelerated and rushed out. Although the dolphin was only considered a turtle speed compared to the watcher. However, the boat was small and there were reference objects nearby to compare, so it felt like it was faster than on the watcher. In less than five minutes, we almost reached the deepest part of Moon Bay. Now, without May's command, I knew where to go. The moon tip of this Crescent Island was a gentle beach, but in the middle section there was a vertical cliff, and there was a cave entrance on the cliff. You could tell at a glance that this was the passage that May said could use the small boat.

"How did you come here?" I asked at the dark cave entrance.

Mayday smiled bitterly. "You'd better stop asking, it's a shame anyway."

Since May said it was a shame, I couldn't ask anymore, so I just looked up at the entrance of the cave. The top of the cave was fifteen meters high from the water surface, and the width of both sides was about thirty meters, which was enough for the watchman to enter. However, since May said that he wanted to use a boat, the cave might become narrower and narrower. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to prepare the boat specifically.

After entering the hole, the light was blocked, and the hole became obviously dark, and it felt very cold. After we entered the hole for a distance, Mayday saw that I continued to drive in without any reaction. Finally, I couldn't help asking: "Why don't you need the fluorescent stone I bought?"

"Oh, sorry, I don't know you can't see it!" I have night vision ability, so I can't remember that others can't see it in the dark. While I said, I took out May's space equipment from the Phoenix Dragon Space. Although this thing is space equipment, it is not too small. May usually has no choice but to carry it everywhere. But now with me, I am still more at ease.

A fluorescent stone was taken out from this small box, and the light green light immediately illuminated the hole. However, under this color, the already terrifying hole was immediately illuminated even more frightening. The hanging stalactites on the top of the cave looked like evil giant beasts, as if they would pounce down at any time.

I handed the fluorescent stone to May, and then turned the main switch on the boat to low-speed mode. It is not as fast as outside, and it is easy to hit the wall. In low-speed mode, as long as the tower plate is not stepped to the bottom, the speed will be very slow, but once the pedal is stepped to the bottom, the dolphin will immediately enter the fastest speed. This setting is used to deal with emergencies. In case of sudden danger in low-speed mode, just step on the pedal to the bottom, you can instantly accelerate and disengage.

We slowly drove forward at a speed similar to a normal person. At the same time, I kept observing the situation around me carefully. Suddenly, I raised my hand and moved my fingers, and a crossbow arrow inserted into an object similar to a rock on the top of the cave. May was about to ask me why I was shooting arrows, but suddenly the "stone" I shot was shaken. Then it fell from the top of the cave and fell into the water with a bang.

"The grouper lizard, a poisonous species, likes wet and cold caves. If I don't shoot it down, we pass by later, and it will wrap our necks around our necks and hang us up." I explained to May.

"Your eyes are very sharp."

I pointed to the red crystal-like object on my forehead. "It's not the place I saw, it's her."

"it?"

"It's my symbiote. It's the Queen, but it's actually a parasite."

"Then it's convenient for you to come. You can have another person to help you monitor the surrounding environment."

"It's not that one more, but two more. I have a spiritual body demon pet. Phantom comes out to say hello." Phantom suddenly emerged from the top of my head, then waved to May, and then returned to my body. I continued: "The Queen is basically not responsible for monitoring the surrounding environment. Her main task is to direct the little bugs to help me fight and collect intelligence. Phantom is my defense supervisor."

"It is indeed convenient to summon creatures. I heard from the boy Wuwei (the real name of the son of Ye Zhizi). It seems that your summon creatures are thousands?"

"If you calculate all the little bugs individually, it is indeed more than ten thousand, and more than one million. However, generally, it is only about ten thousand that can be calculated separately."

"That's not much," May suddenly shouted, "Be careful."

I rushed to the direction. The little dolphin suddenly flashed to the side, and a stalactite fell into the water next to us. If it weren't for the direction being hit in time, we would have smashed us into the water. I turned around and raised my hand and had an arrow, and another giant lizard fell into the water. "There are so many poisonous giant lizards in this ghost place."

"It will be fine in a while. The top of the cave entrance is relatively high, and it will be full of underground rivers in front of it. It seems that these things dare not enter the water."

"You're right. Although these guys like to be wet, they don't know how to swim. If they fall into the water, they will definitely die."

May nodded, then pointed to a stalactite that stretched out from the water in front and said, "Attention, you've hit it."

"I know." I adjusted the direction a little and walked around easily. The water surface in front was not as wide as the hole. The water surface was significantly narrower, and from time to time, there were stalactites extending out of the water surface standing on the water. I had to turn left and right to avoid these stalactites. Fortunately, the speed was not fast and it was easier to avoid them.

After driving for a while, the width of the water surface had changed to less than four meters, and the moon on the top of the cave was getting lower and lower, and finally it became almost possible to reach it with a hand. May looked at the front with some concern and said, "This is not necessarily something I have passed before!"

"It's okay. Don't look at the small ship, it's well-equipped." I pressed a button, and the edge of the ship suddenly lit up, and then a light blue light curtain suddenly appeared, wrapping the upper part of the ship. This is actually the kind of waterproof door used by the sea clan, but it was transformed into a diving cover by the people from our guild.

May reached out to touch it, but his hand passed through the light curtain. He immediately looked at me in surprise. I explained with a smile: "This thing can be waterproof, but it does not affect the passage of other substances. It is more convenient than a glass cover. And if there are enemies, just adjust the output frequency and it can become a full defense barrier that cannot be passed through in nothing."

"I admire you! There are so many good things in your guild!"

"I mean little." I smiled and pushed the joystick forward. The little dolphin immediately began to sink and soon got under the water. "Hehe, so you don't have to worry about the situation at the top of the cave. Okay, put away your fluorescent stone, you can't illuminate much underwater." As I said that, I turned on another switch, and a circle of blue light suddenly lit up around the hull. The light shone far away before gradually getting darker. The penetration in the water was very good. Before May asked me to answer him, he explained to him: "This is also the technology of the sea clan, which is specially used for underwater lighting, which is much farther than what you do."

May smiled and said, "But the scenery shining out from this light is as scary as the fluorescent stone."

The hole walls illuminated by blue light are indeed scary, but only this light is easier to shine in the distance under the water, so we have no choice.

After continuing to move forward for a while, the passage began to narrow again, and the entire top of the cave was submerged in the water. However, there was something that always surprised me, that was, there seemed to be no fish here. It was said that there should be many fish around this island, but I didn't see any of them after being in the cave for so long. After thinking about it, I opened the Phoenix Dragon Space and summoned Adina out.

"A Dina, please help me see if there are relatively large holes in front of me."

Adina nodded, then stood up. The energy cover above her head was only waterproof and not to guard against other things. Adina easily stuck her head into the water. After a while, she sat down again. "I used sonar to detect it. The passage in front was narrower than here, and it was curved and the sonar could not be transmitted far. Do I want me to go to the front and take a look?"

"You sit here first, and then talk about it later."

May said: "What are you doing so nervous? My demon pet has been here with those people and has not found any danger!"

I didn't look at May, but nervously controlled the boat and said, "Yinxue is thousands or thousands of times stronger than a giant dragon. Even the dragon can scare the animals inside to flee everywhere when flying through the forest. Do you think that if an existence like Yinxue passes here, there are any creatures who dare to stay here? Of course, it's okay for your demon pet to follow the country-protecting beasts to pass by, but they have passed. There is only us here. Not daring to touch Yinxue does not mean that they dare not touch us."

Adina suddenly patted us on the shoulders and pointed to the back. "I think your inference has been confirmed by my master, so it's better to run quickly now."

May and I looked back together, and then I was scared at the same time. I hurriedly sat back and stepped on the pedal to the bottom. It would be better to hit the wall at this time than to be caught up with by the things behind me.
Chapter completed!
