Capítulo 1488: Chapter 82: Successfully Joined
In two hours, three thousand assassins were slain. If this task didn’t take place in the ga world, completing it would be nearly impossible, because if the other party really wanted to flee, you wouldn’t be able to stop them. Especially if they were stealthy assassins. But in the ga world, the task has a fixed area, so those NPC enemies can’t leave this zone. Three thousand assassins who won’t run away—Lu Hong, with his experienced battlefield senses, could easily track them down. Capturing them was a piece of cake.
In less than an hour and a half, Lu Hong completed the mission in an overwhelming manner. Simply put, the process of completing the task was all about chop, chop, and more chopping.
His combat skills and awareness were entirely unmatched by these NPCs.
If it weren’t for the last assassin running all over the place and giving him a hard ti catching, he might have finished even earlier.
After completing the mission, Lu Hong returned to the Marseille Defense Line and entered a milk tea shop. Zhong Minghuang was sitting there, chugging down milk tea.
In the Horizon’s ga world, the sensations of eating, drinking, and playing feel very real. The virtual headset can simulate such electrical signals, causing the brain to react as if it’s actually eating and drinking these foods, thus sending feedback to the brain.
Deceiving the brain into believing it has truly consud these items.
Lu Hong looked at the seventy or eighty empty milk tea bottles on Zhong Minghuang’s table, raising an eyebrow: “You can drink that much?”
Upon hearing him, Zhong Minghuang glanced at Lu Hong and said, “Don’t misunderstand. I’m very thin in the real world. If I weren’t trying to maintain my figure, I wouldn’t just indulge in the Horizon to satisfy my cravings.”
Lu Hong smiled softly: “It seems our Commander Zhong is quite the restrained person.”
“Naturally, wielding a nation’s heavy weapon, how can one act recklessly?” Zhong Minghuang chugged half a cup of milk tea, burped contentedly, and then said, “You did well on the task; I permit you to join my Phoenix Team. You’ll start as a trainee mber, and rember, most of our real tasks—ninety percent of them—are done outside the ga. So recently, so people might contact you for real-world missions. Based on your performance, Phoenix Team will award you Points. These rewards can be exchanged for resources under the rcenary benefits section of the guild. Once exchanged in the ga, designated staff will deliver the actual items to your hand. Rember?”
Lu Hong nodded: “Got it.”
“Good, from now on, work under my command. When you beco a core mber of Phoenix Team, you’ll be eligible to talk to again. Rember, Phoenix Team’s mission is singular: Serve the nation, serve the people. National and people’s interests above all!”
Saying this, Zhong Minghuang logged off directly.
Lu Hong shrugged, feeling the mission was quite grand.
And at the mont Zhong Minghuang logged off, a staff mber from the milk tea shop ca up to Lu Hong, saying, “Sir, the lady who just left didn’t pay her bill. As a guild mber, I hope you don’t refuse to pay.”
Hearing the staff’s words, Lu Hong paused, slightly surprised.
D*mn, no wonder she logged off so quickly. The b*stard didn’t pay for her tea!
Lu Hong, helpless, had to fork out money to settle the bill. In the Horizon ga, the prices for food and drinks are absurdly high. This table of seventy-eight cups of milk tea cost Lu Hong at least three thousand real-world currency.
Of course, given Lu Hong’s financial status now, it’s a re sprinkle. But still, he was speechless about Zhong Minghuang’s dine-and-dash behavior.
After exiting the ga world, Luo Jiuxiu had been waiting for quite so ti: “How was it? Did Zhong Minghuang take you in?”
Lu Hong nodded, “Thanks to Young Master Luo’s recomndation. If there’s anything I can help with in the future, just let know.”
Luo Jiuxiu waved his hand, saying, “I can’t keep a genius like you. With your talent, you’ll soon join the True Dragon and Phoenix Teams. But once you join them, you’ll be walking a path entirely different from ordinary people. I don’t know if bringing you onto this path is right or wrong.”
“Young Master Luo, don’t think too much. Since I’ve witnessed the underground fighting arena battles, I’ve already stepped into this unknown new world. What you’re doing is giving convenience, which is a favor to . I still stand by my word: If Young Master Luo needs anything in the future, I’ll be there.”
Hearing Lu Hong’s reassurance, Luo Jiuxiu stopped worrying and laughed heartily, “Alright, alright, today let’s properly celebrate…”
Before Luo Jiuxiu could finish his sentence, the closed box room door was kicked open, and two security guards were also kicked into the box room.
Upon hearing the commotion, Luo Jiuxiu and Lu Hong simultaneously turned to look.
They saw a burly man standing at the doorway, holding a tal alloy briefcase, grinning at Lu Hong: “Lu Hong, right? I’m Iron Head, code 04-001 from Phoenix Team, ordered to help you complete the mbership process and deliver sothing to you.”
Listening to the introduction, Lu Hong couldn’t help but be slightly surprised: “Wait, this fast?”
From Zhong Minghuang’s departure to Lu Hong’s logout took only ten minutes, and now this guy has delivered it right to the door?
Don’t tell reality has that in-ga space transmission technology?
Iron Head laughed heartily: “I happen to play here at Sofia often, so it’s all a coincidence.”
As he said, a group of security personnel rushed over swiftly from the hallways, and Sofia Bar’s manager also marched over with a grim expression.
In many years, it was the first ti seeing soone daring to kick the door at Sofia. This was practically giving Sofia Bar’s owner no respect!
However, upon recognizing Iron Head’s deanor, Sofia Bar’s manager’s expression imdiately turned ingratiatingly respectful: “Brother Li, what’s this…”
While speaking, Sofia Bar’s manager kept gesturing, signaling all security to retreat.
The man known as Brother Li glanced at Sofia Bar’s manager and said lightly: “I was in a hurry to et my brother, so I kicked your door. Don’t worry, I’ll compensate.”
“No need, no need, we’ll repair the door ourselves. But, you disturbed Young Master Luo…”
Sofia Bar’s manager shifted his gaze to Luo Jiuxiu, frankly speaking, this Luo Jiuxiu was also soone he couldn’t afford to provoke. So his current thought was to diate between the two young masters from big families, hoping they wouldn’t cause trouble in his venue.
Seeing the manager’s questioning glance, Luo Jiuxiu waved dismissively, “No worries, it doesn’t matter, you can go now, just give another box room later.”
“Alright, alright, enjoy; I’ll be off now.”
With the manager leaving, Iron Head nodded, “Let’s go, co to my place, we can chat there.”
“Sure!”
Lu Hong followed Iron Head to box room number two.
As the box room door closed, Iron Head tossed the tal box onto the tea table: “Password 00088214, open it and check yourself.”
Lu Hong quickly entered the password, opened it, and saw a vial of potion quietly emitting star-like glimrs inside.
“Is this the Awakening Potion?”
“Yes, use it by injection. Don’t you dare drink it!” Iron Head said, “This was actually exchanged for my brother’s awakening. Your one was dispatched from headquarters, but considering there’s a guild mission in two days, I just brought it over for you first.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Hong hesitated, “Isn’t this inappropriate?”
“What’s inappropriate? My brother’s awakening success rate is already low, he’s a noob in gaming. Even if awakened, he’d only be slightly better than ordinary people, it doesn’t matter if used sooner or later. By the way, don’t worry. Awakening Potions are all uniformly developed by the Horizon’s Company, they’re the sa. I’m not one of those d*mn people who pass off inferior stuff for good. You better use it tonight, bathe and change before using it, and don’t eat anything at night, stay on an empty stomach. Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll feel unwell and vomit all day. Also, our guild gathers for a mission in X City at Huai’an Road in two days at ten in the evening, including you, it’s four people.
