Chapter 595 Chewing Tobacco and Horseshoe
Zhang Heng only took a day off before returning to the ga checkpoint. Although the proxy war would not start until half a month later, he still had to complete a quest before that.
At the sa ti and seat, Zhang Heng laid on the sofa and put the alarm clock on his chest.

[Ti flow rate: 480) (1 hour in the real world is equivalent to 20 days in this ga. The player will be sent back to the real world after 40 days)
Friendly reminder, the ga will officially start in five seconds. Please be prepared.
When he saw the quest’s na, Zhang Heng knew where he would be sent to this ti. The background information of this round proved his guess was right. If he rembered correctly, the stipulation of “$10 for 160 acres of land” ca from the Hostead Act, signed by the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, during the Civil War. It managed to bring the already soaring westward movent to a climax again.
Countless Arican citizens who yearned for wealth had flocked to the west, where they worked the land and built their hos. Simultaneously, many villains, thugs, gamblers, murderers, and the people who lost their land and wealth during the Arican Civil War also headed to the west, far away from the prosperous and stable East Coast and the legal system. The west had beco a paradise for desperadoes.
The massacre and exile of Indians accompanying the Westward Movent aggravated contradictions and hatred between the Native Aricans and the pioneers. It turned the west into land infested with unimaginable peril. When Zhang Heng opened his eyes, he found himself standing in a desert. Red rock cliffs were everywhere, and sparse bushes and cacti were probably the only colors in the Gobi Desert. This ti, the situation was similar to that of the Soviet-Finnish war. He was still wearing his short-sleeved shirt, shorts, and sneakers from the real world. Other than that, his mobile phone and keys were also in his pocket. Since the Pestilence Bone Bow was too conspicuous, he did not bring it into the ga. Instead, it was replaced by the Pestilence’s White Horse Crown and other ga items he put in his backpack. Zhang Heng then went and checked his character panel briefly.

Evaluation: The player possesses incredible swordsmanship. As an opponent, you don’t want him to lay his hand on any bladed weapon. At the sa ti, he is also a Lego master, with an excellent criminal investigation and disguise ability. He has slightly better luck of encountering enemies than ordinary people. Other than that, he is also sheltered by shadows and storms. The white horse is his mount. The player has excellent sailing experience.

He can quickly adapt to a wild environnt. For combat, he is resourceful and possesses strong combat power. He is also the kind of player that sticks to his oath, which is rare among players.
To recast that “Ordinary Tachi,” Zhang Heng practically invested all the ga points he accumulated so far, leaving only 23 ga points for an ergency.
In terms of ga items, there was little change from the previous round of the ga. Except for the replacent of [White Horse Crown] and (Pestilence Bone Bow], Zhang Heng had used up the (Wall of Evil Thoughts] during his previous battle with Arc of Light. It was now officially resting in peace. Besides that, Zhang Heng also acquired the Shadow Necklace, which was part of the Shadow Set, but he did not bring it with him this ti.
In terms of skills, Zhang Hengxin acquired two skills after he completed the Deductive Reasoning quest. The two skills were Criminal Investigation and Makeup, both of which had reached Lv.2. (Lvo Art Appreciation was not displayed) Also, his most significant change was, of course, the Lv.4 swordsmanship. This was the highest level of skills that he had so far. And it was probably also the limit of human beings. In the latest evaluation, the system emphasized his swordsmanship above everything else.
Other than that, Zhang Heng also noticed that his combat power had changed from excellent to powerful, and his final overall evaluation has also escalated from eye-catching to rare.
Zhang Heng did not spend too much ti reading the evaluation. Though ti was an issue for him since he had extra 24 hours every day, the scorching sun above him would definitely not allow him to stay here for too long
Zhang Heng knew that he needed to do sothing about it as soon as possible. He had no clue about the main task asking him to find the Lucky Horseshoe for the ti being. He knew that in so Western legends, horseshoes and rabbit feet are regarded as lucky objects. However, the horseshoe he was supposed to find was considered very special. Although he stayed in the United States for so ti during his sixth ga, the Apollo Training Camp, he wasn’t very familiar with Lincoln County. And he did learn a lot about the states in Arica. As for counties, unless they are very famous. He would not know the specific details of each county. It seed like Lincoln County was established not long after the Westward Movent.
And his guess was correct. Lincoln County was located in New xico. It was initially a small village inhabited by xicans. In mory of the assassinated Abraham Lincoln, the village was renad Lincoln. But whether it’s Lincoln County or Lucky Horseshoes, it was sothing that Zhang Heng needed to study later. Right now, his top priority was to find a place with people. Zhang Heng first figured out the direction with the shadow observation thod. However, even if he managed to distinguish south, east, west, and north, he would not know which direction to choose. Since the system put him here, it was impossible not to provide him with any hints. He was not supposed to rely just on luck.
Zhang Heng then climbed a relatively high red rock nearby and spotted sothing.
– A section of railway. The first railroad in the United States was built around 1826. It was only used to transport granite. However, with the Westward Movent’s vigorous developnt, the United States has more than 410,000 kiloters of railroad sprawled across the United States. It was more than the sum of so other countries in the world. Later, they had to remove almost half of it because so were not being used.
Whenever there was a railway, it often ant that there would be towns along the way.
Zhang Heng climbed down from the rock wall and walked towards the railway.
