_1 Chapter 1001: Chapter 931: It’s so easy to solve, there isn’t a pitfall, is there?
_1 “Alright, where do we start?”
Yi easily accepted this premise.
We are players, aren’t we!
The absolute protagonists of the story, born to save the world, nothing could be more logical.
——Players will never ask “Why ?” “Can I really do it?”
Because there’s absolutely no need.
We can certainly do it!
...
Yi didn’t even ask how exactly he was supposed to save the world; he imdiately asked about the next step.
This made the General swallow his explanation of “blowing up the passageway with a nuclear bomb” once again, skipping a load of dialogues, and fast-forwarding to the next phase of the mission—
“Take a good rest.
Tomorrow morning, Shinshi will take you to select your co-driver.”
“Then you will need to undergo extensive training.”
“You haven’t piloted a ch for five years.
I need to make sure you have the ability to fight monsters.”
[Main Missions Updated: Find a co-driver]
This is a complex test.
Cloud Dream has prepared a total of 9 substitute drivers for players.
They co from all over the world and each has a distinct personality, story, and background.
Players need to test each of them individually to find the one that suits them best and drive [Dangerous Wanderer] together.
But there’s a trap here:
If players really get to know these 9 drivers one by one—which is entirely possible as the dev team has indeed fleshed out their backstories, and each of them has several side missions to complete, and players can definitely team up with them to pilot the chs.
But the problem is: none of these 9 drivers can bring out the strongest power of [Dangerous Wanderer].
The truly strongest driver is not among these 9 options, but is actually the girl that Yi took a liking to at first glance, who is the player’s official partner in the plot.
Normally, players need to make a few errors before they realize, “The co-driver is not in the list of options provided by the official.”
But Yi, having the LSP radar, doesn’t need clues or verification!
He pointed at Shinshi without hesitation:
“I don’t need any other co-drivers!
I only want her!”
“Miss Shinshi is my only choice!”
“Not the first choice, but the only choice!”
This bold declaration, which is not much different from a confession, imdiately drew everyone’s attention.
The General could no longer maintain his image as the “head of the world-saving organization”, and his head was almost smoking with anger.
On the other hand, Miss Shinshi lowered her head deeply, her face turning red.
The live broadcast room also heated up instantly, with everyone praising Yi’s thick-skinnedness.
“You should go rest now!”
Suppressing his anger, the General turned and left, not even introducing the drivers of the other chs to him.
Fortunately, Shinshi, who had grown fonder of Yi, took on this task, not only introducing him to the three brothers who pilot [Crimson Storm], the two Russian drivers of [Cherno Alpha], and the father-son duo of [Eureka Striker], but also took him to get a close look at and introduced the refitted [Dangerous Wanderer]—
Pure steel exterior; forty engines per muscle; a super torque batch each for all four limbs; plus a new liquid synapse system and dual nuclear reactors.
Its current condition is greatly enhanced compared to when he piloted it before.
When introducing the ch, Shinshi was very proud in both her expressions and tone—after all, she was in charge of this ch’s modifications and repairs.
But Yi’s first reaction upon hearing this was, “So chs can be modified?
Can it be further enhanced?”
Shinshi was slightly taken aback, but then explained to him, “Theoretically yes, but research and developnt of new equipnt has completely ceased.
Even production lines for repairing and recycling chs have largely shut down.
Now there are only a few stock items left in the base, none of which is a match for your Dangerous Wanderer.”
“Unless we could get more parts, this is currently its strongest state.”
Yi blinked, “Can I switch chs with that father-son duo from Australia?”
“Eh?” Shinshi widened her eyes in surprise.
“What’s the matter?” Yi asked in confusion, “Doesn’t our base have so promotion system?”
“Pro…
promotion system?” Shinshi repeated in confusion.
“Yeah, like whoever has higher Combat Power, who has defeated more monsters, gets to pilot the strongest ch or sothing…” Yi asked earnestly.
This wasn’t for fun; he genuinely wanted to know how to pilot the strongest ch, be it by directly switching to the latest generation of chs or upgrading his existing one to the max.
The pursuit of the strongest “equipnt” is deeply ingrained in the veins of every player.
“No…
No way.” Shinshi was stuttering as she spoke.
“Haha!
A holess dog trying to steal our ch?!
Ɲ0νǥ0.сο
How ridiculous!”
Behind them, the pilot of [Eureka Raider], a father-son duo, the son—Chuck, suddenly stepped forward.
Clearly, he had overheard Yi’s aggressive statent just now.
“Don’t rush.” Yi comforted, “I’m not targeting you, I just want to try your ch.”
Listening to Yi’s words was like hearing “I want to try your wife” for Chuck.
He impulsively punched Yi without thinking!
“Bang!”
Yi took a solid punch.
Only then did he suddenly recall: In the ga “Pacific Rim”, his physical fitness is just that of an ordinary adult, he doesn’t even have [Combat Techniques].
—Only while piloting the chs he could use the [ch Combat Techniques] built into the ch operating system.
Without a ch, he was helpless!
But after all, he had been fighting in the virtual world for over half a year.
It’s impossible to say that he doesn’t have any combat skills!
Several critical factors in combat like “distance control”, “blocking”, “force production” he knew all of them.
He started fighting against the NPC without any hindrance.
Shinshi, on the other hand, stood at the side continuous shouting, “Stop fighting!”
…
The passing NPCs initially separated the two cha pilots who were punching each other, and then this farce ca to an end.
“It’s your first day here!” Shinshi complained while she was guiding Yi to his room.
“Yes, yes, yes.”
While Yi was reassuring her, he was seriously considering: “Will the ch pilot change if this bastard nad Chuck encounters so accident, such as accidentally breaking his leg, or having a bad stomach, and can’t leave the toilet?”
“The double operation is a big problem…
It should be better if one person could pilot the ch.”
It wasn’t until he stood outside his own room—a room with a heavy tal gate as a door, that Yi stopped thinking.
Because he realized an important thing: Shinshi actually lives across from him.
He decisively extended an invitation: “Would you like to co in for so coffee?”
“??” Shinshi looked at him as if he was an idiot, “We are soldiers!
There’s no coffee in a soldier’s room!”
“Then…
How about so water?
As a housewarming gift for ?”
“What are you thinking?” Shinshi frowned.
This was a sign of decreased affection.
Yi swiftly realized this and decisively changed his reason: “I was thinking: I need to get to know the co-driver of my future better.”
Visibly, Shinshi’s expression relaxed once again.
But she did not agree: “You need a good rest today and the General also doesn’t agree with driving a ch.”
“I will get him to agree.” Yi was extrely confident.
Shinshi couldn’t help but smile: “Goodnight.”
After saying that she quickly went into the room and closed her door.
“There’s sothing off…” After Yi entered his room, he felt sothing was not right, “When did Cloud Dream have such easy-to-get-along-with female characters?
Is there a trap sowhere?”
…
On the other hand, Super Tomato finally managed to secure a huge monster bone, not only did he exchange it for a thick stack of US dollars, but also received a bottle of well-ground bone powder.
“What can this thing do?” Super Tomato asked the foreman—who was also a black-market smuggler.
“It can revive your virility!” The foreman replied, “This is hard currency that can circulate worldwide!”
Super Tomato was stunned, “I am a single dog, why are you giving this to ?”
“Never mind, I will save it for Yi.”
