Gamers Are Fierce Chapter 123: Island
Returning to his bathroom again, Li Ang looked at himself in the mirror and breathed a sigh of relief.
It's finally over.
It's not easy. The ghosts in this script mission are quite dense, and the hidden conditions for customs clearance are numerous and harsh.
If it weren't for the fact that the two teammates that were matched were pretty good (especially the ruthless Black Trojan who can gouge out his eyeballs), he really wouldn't be able to complete the mission.
Li Ang unloaded all the equipment in the bathroom, and asked Miss Chai to go to the living room to play with her mobile phone, while he went back to the bedroom and slumped on the bed to check the harvest.
【Reward settlement in progress】
[The overall performance of the player: S+, the game coins and experience points obtained are increased to 160%]
[Quest Reward 1: Micro Life Potion*1]
[Quest Reward 2: EXP 200]
[Task reward 3: 400 game coins]
After multiplying by a factor of 1.6, the script task of "Campus Past" provided Li Ang with a total of 320 experience points and 640 game coins.
According to this calculation, his current level is Lv8, the experience gauge is 579/800, and the game currency is 4985.
Quest Rewards 2 and 3 are not particularly large. The biggest gain is a bottle of Micro Life Potion given by Quest Reward 1.
Li Ang, who was lying on the bed, clicked on the antique wooden treasure chest in the backpack column.
The box contains a cylindrical glass bottle the size of a can, with a narrow top and bottom,
The mouth of the bottle is plugged with a cork, and the round and smooth transparent bottle is filled with a bright red liquid like blood.
Li Ang shook the glass bottle, watching the crimson liquid swirl and stir in the bottle.
[Name: Miniature Life Potion]
【Type: Consumables】
[Quality: Rare]
[How to use: Make a "drinking" action (no need to actually drink it), it is regarded as a complete consumption]
【Special effect: cure some body injuries and most common diseases. The recovery speed and recovery effect are related to the user's physical strength]
[Cooldown: You can only drink one bottle within 1 hour. The effect will be covered by small, medium and large health potions]
[Note: Applicable to carbon-based life (both chirality), silicon-based life, arsenic-based life, amino-based life, sulfur-based life, nitrogen-based life, etc.]
According to the forum, such a small bottle of life potion,
It can regenerate a severed limb,
It can cure intractable diseases.
Whether cancer, AIDS, locked-in syndrome, primary amebic meningoencephalitis,
Or psoriasis, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, pediatric spinal muscular atrophy,
As long as one bottle goes down, all diseases will be eliminated,
Even the whole-body chromosomal mutation caused by nuclear radiation can be cured.
The team of experts organized by official agencies and pharmaceutical groups in various countries have no idea how this life potion works, and they don't even know what it is.
The team of experts tried to analyze and test the life potion,
After removing the cork, the life potion inside will remain stable,
However, once the bottle is poured, the liquid disappears immediately,
Even with a super high-speed camera, it's impossible to see how it disappeared.
Whether it is to break open the glass bottle, or to heat the glass bottle to make the liquid evaporate, vaporize, and condense, all attempts have ended in failure,
As if the bottle itself possesses intelligence, it must be drunk by a living being.
Although the official institutions and pharmaceutical groups are not reconciled, there is nothing they can do—
If you can reproduce the production of life potion, it will not only attract a large number of players, but also take the opportunity to monopolize the global medical industry and ask for anything and everything from 7.5 billion people.
However, the monopoly of global medical care is not completely hopeless,
As the killing game continues to progress, there will always be players who can enter a scripted world that is more advanced than modern Earth, and obtain medical technology that can be understood by modern medical analysis.
Automated surgical intelligent machines, artificial wombs, artificial organs, nanoscale surgical robots, genetic adjustment,
And finally, eternal life.
The development of any medical technology will have a significant and far-reaching impact on the global human beings, including players.
In the changing tide of this era,
There are players who can't help themselves, and there are doctors who are trapped by the situation,
There are the general public who are ignorant and dazed, and there are news media that manipulate public opinion,
There are pharmaceutical groups that seek financial interests, and there are state machines with thousands of hands and thousands of eyes.
Involving 7.5 billion people and trillions of interests, no one can stay away from this storm,
Unless it can transcend everything, the individual will is worthless and vulnerable in the face of the general trend.
Li Ang held the bottle of life potion, stared at it for a long time, and finally put it into his backpack.
This thing is still good for personal use.
【You have a new friend request message】
The system prompt sounded, and Li Ang, who was lying on the bed, stood up,
I found out that it was the temporary teammate Black Trojan in the mission "School Past" who applied to add him as a friend.
In the killing game, it is not easy to add friends between players,
Or search and add in the "Past Teammates" in the quest log column,
Or, apply directly through each player's unique code.
In order to avoid harassment ~IndoMTL.com~ players can also switch the friend request option, which can be said to be very user-friendly.
After passing the friend request, Black Trojan and Li Ang chatted for a while and expressed their gratitude,
And at the end of the conversation, he secretly expressed his willingness to cooperate with Li Ang on behalf of a secret organization called "Whale Song".
For example, the sale and purchase of loot (especially computers), the exchange of some special intelligence, etc.
Li Ang chatted for a while and hung out, but he still expressed his willingness to maintain a friendly relationship with the Whale Song Organization.
After hanging up the friend's communication, Li Ang stretched out and went back paralyzed.
For the next few days, Li Ang has been browsing the forum to collect information.
There are mainly two hot news on the forum recently.
The first, seismic sensors scattered all over the world, have recently picked up a strange seismic wave signal.
This is an atypical very low frequency signal, long, gentle, repeating every seventeen seconds for a total of 20 minutes, circling the globe.
A team of scientific experts traced the source of the signal and found that it originated from the Mayotte Islands between Africa and Madagascar.
Earthquakes began in Mayotte seven months ago, and the entire island has so far moved more than 20 centimeters to the southeast.
Scientists believe the phenomenon is due to an entirely new volcano forming below the coast of Mayotte,
But local residents claim that when night comes, they can hear a long, dull, odd breathing sound in their sleep.
However, the 24/7 recording device did not respond at all,
It's as if there is some kind of waking monster underground, dragging everyone in Mayotte into its dreams...
