Randomly pick a stand-in every day

Raleigh’s backpack has sufficient reserves of drinking water, which is most likely to cause difficulties when crossing the desert, and there is no good solution to the high temperature—you can wear thicker clothes when it’s cold, but what can you do if it’s hot?

Moreover, according to the mission description, the itinerary this time will not be too long, and there may not even be a need to spend the night in the wild, so it is better to start as soon as possible.

"Basically everything in the backpack is complete, let's go straight to...huh?"

Just as Raleigh was saying this, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.

His field of vision turned into a black screen as if the brightness was gradually decreasing. The empty and dark scene stayed for three or four seconds, and then a line of text gradually appeared:

【After carrying the supplies needed to enter the desert area, you and Avanti set off together...】

This, this is!

Mandatory plot skip? !

Another three seconds passed, and the scene on the black screen suddenly returned to normal, but the nearby scene was no longer a town, but a vast sea of ​​sand.

The sudden change revived Raleigh immediately. This kind of situation where a disagreement forced a special session... When we met last time, was it when we were teaming up with Brother Killer?

What's going on, the openness of this game has always been ridiculously high, this time it's not a multiplayer game that needs to be played for people who haven't found anything abnormal, why did you suddenly skip the preparation time here?

Could it be that in the short period of time from purchasing supplies to going out, there is no hidden mystery...

Raleigh turned his head and checked his eyes with Tutu, who shook his head, saying that he didn't know what happened in the middle. It seems that from her perspective, it was probably the same as Raleigh, the middle part was skipped.

After thinking for a while, Raleigh didn't come to a conclusion, so he had to put aside his doubts for the time being, and confirm the plot node after skipping:

Looking back, the location of the town is not too far away, it seems that they have only just set off.Avanti was indeed riding on his donkey, while Luo Li and the others were on foot—this sounds a little outrageous, but it seemed that they did not arrange for them to be mounted on camels or the like.

"That batch of goods was robbed the day before yesterday, and it has been almost two days now. Because it was robbed by someone, the specific location of the loss is very clear, but there is no need to find it from the beginning."

Avanti, the leader of the team in front, spoke at this time. From the "plot" point of view, the progress was basically seamless, but Raleigh, who was used to the whole process of autonomous operation, was still a little uncomfortable with this transition.

So surprisingly, the imitator suddenly jumped out and answered this sentence:

"Hey, man, that doesn't make sense. Do all your robbers stay put for two days? Even zombies don't stay that way."

"Oh, that's right. Your analogy is really distinctive, but I didn't finish it..."

At this time, without the influence of other factors, Avanti also entered the state of speaking directly, without seeming to think much:

"Because the goods are very valuable, locators that can determine the location are mixed in. Although it is urgent now, these things don't seem to lose their effectiveness. We can find the target based on the location."

As he spoke, an object the size of two palms appeared on Avanti's hand, which seemed to be the "positioning device" he was talking about.

"Hey. I always feel that... the level of technology is very different from the expected level of technology!?"

You shouldn't have seen this kind of thing in ancient times. Originally, you only knew the other party at the level of ancient technology, but now it seems that it may not be that simple.

So what is the situation in this world?

"...Okay, then I will leave the direction to you. I will mainly focus on the problems after that."

Well, Raleigh gives up for now.

Don't guess if you don't know anything. It's not clear what's going on with this world view. Since there is no danger for the time being, let's go on like this first.

'Oh, yes, I almost forgot to draw a card...'

Attracted too much attention by the lack of glasses and the situation of Avanti, it was only now that Raleigh realized that he had forgotten a necessary link.

He looked around to make sure there were no other problems, then pretended to be taking something from his pocket, and took out a deck of tarot cards.

If there are other people present, I won’t shout this time——

"Major Arcana. Show the hint of fate."

Whispering in a low voice, Raleigh didn't wait for the cards to start spinning, and directly took out one with his backhand and checked it out:

【The Hanged Man】

The card Raleigh drew was the Hanged Man reversed.

So, the substitute he has this time is - it looks like a phantom in the mirror, but it is actually a ray of light, the Hanged Man!

--------

PS: Recently, it seems that I have mastered the weird talent of "If it is almost six o'clock, I will definitely wake up", what the hell...

In every sense, I don't want to use the natural ability at all.

In fact, friends who read the title of the volume should have noticed that the main double this time is the Hanged Man!It's a stand-in with high strength and interesting design ideas, but it's actually a bit unsuitable to play in the desert environment?

The main body like this is very scumbag, but the ability or appearance is actually quite cool. In JOJO, it really doesn’t appear once or twice?

This double is in the hands of Raleigh, so what kind of tricks can it be tossed...

Chapter 637 Here, black represents heat (4k)

The yellow sand is long, and the day is empty.

The young man in black walked slowly in the desert with a walking stick.His clothes are too gorgeous compared to this desert, no matter how you look at it, he is not suitable for a long-distance trek, but the footprints behind him show that he has indeed walked like this for a long time.

His face was serious, and the sweat on his forehead proved that the scorching sun had no effect on him, but all the difficulties were ignored and could not shake his progress.He is so resolute and unwavering in his decision, one can't help but guess that he may be a lord...

but?Why does his pitch-black cane look so much like a shovel?

oh!The lord spoke solemnly, and he said:

"...Damn it, black absorbs heat! It's terrible."

Raleigh looked down at his gorgeous battle suit in distaste. When he went out from home wearing this suit, he was still full of vigor and contentment, but in the blink of an eye he had become completely speechless.

Now I realize a very real problem. Although from the perspective of character image design, black can often give people a mysterious and cool temperament, but when it comes to practicality... this thing is obviously hot!

The hammer is cold, the surface temperature is almost 50!it's too hot!

Then everyone must be curious, isn’t there a one-click change belt?Why do you still have to stare at this dark coat Nirvana made up of various villain items?

Good question, this involves some very esoteric content, and it is worth launching a targeted discussion on psychology and philosophy, but if you directly announce the results, it would be——

Looking back and thinking about it carefully, Brother Luo Li's pile of clothes, which one can you say is not black?

Not only the three-form modeling and novice equipment, but even tmd's black mouth with a small skirt and a bone shroud!

Although the "lord set" is very inappropriate in shape, there is an effect of [obtaining shields according to the number of surrounding friendly units] in this passive style, which can be used to protect against wind and sand;

If you change into other clothes, not only will you not be much cooler, but you will also have to eat dirt when the wind blows. This is considered reliable...

"Well, Captain, are you okay? I always feel like you are emitting heat, and the air around you seems to be distorted..."

Tutu kept a little distance away from Raleigh calmly. Now that her dear captain has reached a level of "I feel so excited for him", she should still maintain a good sense of distance.

"That's the polarized light of the shield... It's nothing more than the old man, don't you feel hot? This Rhodes Island uniform doesn't look very cool."

Looking at the well-covered Tutu, Raleigh couldn't help asking questions. He said that Rhodes Island's uniform is also blue and black, which doesn't look too cool.

Obviously, they have nothing to do all day long and they have to run around in the wasteland. Is it true that the operators dressed like this will not suffer from heat stroke in summer?

"Huh? If you say it's hot or not, of course it will be hot, but it's not uncomfortable. It's still within the acceptable range, right?"

Regarding this, Tutu walked forward with her ears shaking as if nothing had happened, and took a closer look at her head. It was true that there was no sign of sweating at all, and she was not trying to be brave.

"how so……"

"Tutu doesn't understand either. Hmph, although I don't know why, but since the field operators are all dressed in this style, maybe there are some hidden functions? Or is it just the captain you are too inferior?"

"Hey, hey... Ever since you used this voice, I always feel that your words are becoming more and more scornful."

"Illusion~?"

"……Ugh."

Seeing the relaxed look of my little operator,

Well, don't think about the imitator, he is a plant, he is active with such ample light, and now he has already run to the front of the line.

"At this time, I suddenly regretted not leaving the [Sun] behind. If there is a cooling mode, it can be used as an air conditioner when it is summoned at this time... Just kidding, that thing is too conspicuous, and if it is really used, it will probably cause trouble."

He took the shovel backhand and patted himself twice, triggering the chill effect attached to it to cool down the clothes. Raleigh glanced at Avanti who was walking in front on a donkey.

"Hey~! How are you doing? Do you need a rest?"

"No need! (whispering) There's nothing suitable for this..."

"That's good! Hold on for a while, we'll be there soon~"

After Avanti finished speaking, he continued to hold the positioning device and lead the way ahead, leaving Raleigh with a thin back.

"Stain."

Although I basically accepted the current setting, but facing such a face, it was still a bit of a drama; and it was completely unexpected what Master Bayi lost.

"... Use your internal strength to resist the temperature difference, and speed up a little."

In terms of physical fitness, Raleigh's current level actually doesn't need to take this amount of exercise into consideration. After overcoming the temperature, the amount of activity itself is a piece of cake for a warrior who has just absorbed the effect of a year's basic skills training, and the follow-up progress suddenly seems It's a lot easier.

And if you pay attention to the roadside scenery, it seems that it is different from the desert in reality, and it is not so monotonous and boring.

First of all, the terrain is not so even. There are many bare rocky mountains, and some signs of Gobi plants can be seen more or less. There seems to be some small animals active on those hills, but the distance is too far to see the specifics.

"Huh? Far away over there is... a pyramid? But why does it seem to be glowing?"

Suddenly, from the gap between the stone walls, Raleigh saw the traces of the pyramids, which can be called the essential elements of the desert. While doubting which country he was standing under, he also became a little curious and walked over there. Take a few steps.

The distance is quite far, and it doesn't feel like it can be reached in a day on foot.But the scale of the pyramid is obviously quite magnificent, and it can also be vaguely seen here.

It wouldn't be practical to try to get there--though, if Raleigh pulled out his vehicle, it might not take long.

Of course, he hasn't decided to go there yet, but he's just a little curious and wants to see what's going on with that glowing effect...

"Hey! Don't go that way anymore! We have to find Master Bai's goods first. If there is anything else we want to see, let's talk about it after returning the things!"

Avanti noticed that Raleigh was "off course", and ran over on a donkey, beckoning him to go in the direction required by the mission.

"Ah, this... also, okay then."

The entrustment and mission are indeed there, and Raleigh has nothing to disagree with. Thinking about it carefully, this is a single-player short book after all, and probably he won't really be asked to go too far to explore, right?Just like the plant zombies at the beginning, or when exploring the castle...

'Uh, wait, is the reason why the system specially arranges an Avanti to follow along with it...to prevent players from running around? ! '

Raleigh, who suddenly came up with some kind of association, felt subtly speechless for a while, that is, he is not a person who is keen on tidying up. Otherwise, after discovering this kind of thing, wouldn't it be a bit of an anti-tune to the system?
