_1 Chapter 999: Chapter 929: Another Quest Line!
_1 In a ga where chs battle monsters, the idea of being a construction worker…
No matter how you look at it, it’s absolutely absurd and ridiculous.
Furthermore—
“The ga is all about chs and monsters, doesn’t that an the walls I build are dood to be knocked down by these monsters?”
“What’s the point then?”
Super Tomato was left speechless.
ṅοѵǤο.сο
Regardless, it wouldn’t hurt to give it a shot.
Who knows, he might be wrong.
...
He clicked on [Finished Welding] and restarted the task.
The new task description soon appeared—
[Find the Foreman]: Your group leader urgently requires assistance, please hasten to his side.
Super Tomato saw a radiant point on the map, only to shockingly find out that this “Foreman” was positioned in a location where chs and monsters had fallen.
“I knew it.
Cloud Dream would never leave things as they are!
They would still find a way to draw players back to the main storyline of being a ch pilot!”
Delighted once more, Super Tomato rushed off to find the Foreman.
*
A single battle between monsters and chs had nearly destroyed half a city.
Even though the battle was now over, peace was far from restored.
Everywhere he looked, countless victims, nearly all of those who had not been injured, were involved in the rescue efforts.
The injured were scattered all around, and so people were kneeling by the ruins, weeping bitterly.
It was uncertain whether they had lost their family or their hos.
—Or perhaps both.
There were still instances of damaged buildings suddenly collapsing, causing significant difficulties to the rescue efforts.
As Super Tomato made his way through, it was as though he was walking through the depths of human hell.
His initial excitent quickly faded, replaced by a deep realization of the monsters’ terrifying potential.
“They really need a defense line along the coast to stop the monsters.
The cost of having them rampaging in the city is too high!”
With this thought in mind, Super Tomato found the Foreman among the crowd.
He was right below the carcass of the monster and the severely damaged ch.
When he looked up at the critically damaged ch, it still brought a massive visual shock:
The severed cables spewed sparks, the exposed engine belched smoke, a large hole was torn open in the breastplate, revealing its steel ribs.
Its fractured leg was left 30 ters away from the body, filled with countless wires and chanical structures at the broken end.
As he got closer for a better look, Super Tomato was amazed—Cloud Dream had even made the interior structure of the ch!
Even though this ch was going to be scrapped after a single battle.
“Well spent, my money!”
That was Super Tomato’s first reaction.
—Lincoln indeed didn’t just arbitrarily price his chs.
In the ga, the structure of these chs was probably based on the actual one in reality, designed after so imagination and exaggeration.
This was great!
Compared to the ch, the deceased monster gave off an incredibly nasty impression.
As soon as Super Tomato approached, he slled a strong odor and felt quite unwell, starting to cough uncontrollably.
The wound on the monster, from which a viscous blue liquid was oozing out, instinctively, this should be the monster’s blood.
However, no matter how Super Tomato looked at it after getting closer, it didn’t resemble anything like—
This stuff could even corrode the concrete ground!
It’s hard to imagine that such a corrosive substance would be present in a living organism.
While observing the blood, a facemask was suddenly thrown at Super Tomato’s head.
“Want to die?”
The foreman, grumbling and swearing, handed him a chemical protective suit, “When the monsters die, their bodies decompose rapidly, their blood evaporates into the air, if you inhale this stuff, get ready for pulmonary edema!”
Indeed, Super Tomato found it suffocating and quickly put on the facemask.
As he did so, he asked, “What are we supposed to do then?
Repair the chs?”
“You, a bricklayer, know a damn thing about ch repairs!” the foreman retorted rcilessly.
——I can’t weld either, but I did it all right in the end.
Super Tomato muttered under his breath and then asked, “What are we doing here then?”
“The monster’s body is right here, what do you think we could be doing?”
“Uh?
The monster’s body?” This was different from what Super Tomato had thought.
He looked up and found that while he had been putting on the chemical suit, a bunch of people wearing the sa suit had surrounded the monster’s body with electric saws, cutters, hamrs, picks…
common tools one would see on a construction site, they were all over the monster’s body.
“Um…
ripping the monster into pieces as a way to vent for the victims?” He guessed.
“What?” The foreman didn’t expect such a peculiar answer, “What does their death have to do with us?”
“Then what do you an?” Super Tomato couldn’t think of another reason.
“Get the rchandise, you blockhead!” The foreman, frustrated, lectured, “Everything from the monster, its shell, claws, teeth, and even lymph nodes can be sold!”
“Provided that we handle it before the body decomposes, everything on it can be sold!
And it fetches a good price too!
A single tooth would equal ten years of your wages at the construction site!”
Handing him a chainsaw, the foreman continued, “Since it’s your first ti, let’s keep it simple!
Saw the bones out of the monster’s body.
There’s no technique required.
Saw out as much as you can!”
Super Tomato dumbfounded, took the saw, “But aren’t we workers?
And… isn’t this the military’s spoils of war?”
“Just think of it as us cleaning up the battlefield for them!” the foreman justified, “Concerning the soldiers… nowadays, how could one survive without a sideline?
Enough chatter, get on with it!
I’ll pay you 250 dollars per pound of bones, if you do well I will take you to Hong Kong to make a fortune!”
“Why Hong Kong?”
“Because the Hunter Plan is over and all the remaining chs are headed to Hong Kong.
Only there will you find monster bodies and strike it rich!”
After explaining for the last ti, the foreman impatiently pushed Super Tomato away.
Super Tomato then took the saw, crawled into an opening that had been made into the monster’s body.
After the monster’s death, the once invincible scale armor had rapidly softened and could easily be cut into.
The mont he entered the monster’s body, Super Tomato imdiately felt nauseous!
The pungent sll rushed right through his nose, the chemical suit couldn’t shield it, let alone his body maneuvering within the translucent blue, flesh and blood.
It was dirty and sticky to the point of being extrely sickening!
Super Tomato almost vomited inside his protective suit.
Then he rembered sothing——
“Fuck dynamic difficulty, I’m done playing!”
He struggled to change the ga difficulty from [Dynamic Difficulty] – which for adults equated to [18 ], to [12 ].
Although the visual change didn’t seem large, the nauseating sll and touch were greatly reduced, and the [Pain Sensation] was forcefully shut down.
Super Tomato imdiately felt much better and began to focus on finding bones to saw.
——Although the job was a bit unpleasant, at least it paid well, and it could get him a free ride to the next map.
He now wondered, without following the mainstream plot of “cha Battles Monsters”, where this “Black Market Monster Material Sales” storyline would lead him.
Super Tomato was interested in this.
Cloud Dream had once again caught him by surprise.
He even began to suspect: even if he didn’t join this [Monster Material Sales] quest line, there should be other routes available.
After all, there are plenty of casual players who love big scenes, exploration, and just plain hate fighting.
Wouldn’t Cloud Dream also want their money?
