She had come out to have fun, so there was nothing wrong with what Yu Huan said... Of course, if she hadn't deliberately amplified her voice so that the mercenaries around her, whether eavesdropping or listening, would have noticed!
44. Mission
Out of boredom, he went to the Mercenary Guild, and then... Yu Huan appeared here: in an endless desert.
Yes, that's right. After leaving Tianyu City, what appeared in front of Yu Huan was the same ruins as before. Yu Huan didn't bring anyone with him except his secretary Yu Luo. The two of them walked casually in the scorching desert with a temperature of dozens of degrees as if they were shopping.
Although the combat uniform was a little revealing, it was obviously a product of technology, so Yu Luo didn't mind it. However, Yu Huan, who was only wearing an ordinary white dress and looked like a young lady who was going out for a trip, stood in such a desert. Naturally, she immediately attracted the attention of the scavengers (mercenaries) coming and going.
After all, not to mention that scavengers are people who often walk among ruins, it is common sense for them to be dusty and exhausted, and it is also natural for them to wear simple, tattered and disheveled clothes. It is normal for those who are unlucky to encounter strange beasts or even lose limbs.
Among this group of people, a girl dressed like a noble lady suddenly appeared... and she was accompanied by a maid (Yu Luo). Obviously, she attracted a lot of people's attention at the first time, especially since Yu Huan and Yu Luo had extraordinary looks. It was no doubt that Yu Huan had just left Tianyu City not long ago, and a lot of cars slowly drove by him and behind him.
They said they were driving, but in fact the car was obviously not moving as fast as Yu Huan and the others were walking, and from time to time one or two little heads would pop out from the car, and it looked like they were obviously peeking or something... Of course, no one dared to invite or provoke them.
After all, not to mention Yu Huan, Yu Luo's iconic earphone-like ears clearly and distinctly told all the peepers around him that he was Xumagia, and what Xumagia represented was something that obviously did not need to be elaborated on for those who had registered as mercenaries in Tianyu City. Therefore, even if they were given ten times the courage, no one would dare to cause trouble for Xumagia here.
Then there was the other person's attitude... From their strolling pace, it was clear that Mingxiu Maggia was following the girl strolling leisurely in the desert as a 'follower'. This clearly explained the other person's identity: either a patroller or guardian of the inner city, or some high-ranking figure or noble lady within the inner city...
It was obvious that neither of them could afford to offend, not to mention that although the other party looked casual and seemed to pose no threat at all, you have to know that this was a ruined desert!
The temperature is over 40 degrees Celsius all year round, and even reaches 100 degrees Celsius at the highest. It is a kind of ruined desert where it is impossible to survive without wearing special equipment. However, the other party is casually wearing a long skirt and a pair of small boots and wandering around there casually. What's more important is that there is not a trace of heat or sweat on her fair skin and jade-like face. Anyone who is not a fool can basically see that the other party is extraordinary.
These two people...cannot be offended!
Of course, they couldn't be offended, but the sudden appearance of two beauties in the ruins was obviously a nice sight for the scavengers coming and going. In addition, Yu Huan didn't seem to care about it, so he didn't pay any attention to it. Over time, the current situation gradually formed:
The two people who were obviously taking a walk were actually following a group of people like a convoy at a leisurely pace. They seemed to be driving their cars carefully behind the two people, neither getting too close nor too far away. From time to time, heads popped out from among them, and pairs of eyes full of amazement even stared straight at the two people. Most of them directly took out various photographic and video equipment and started taking pictures.
Such a beautiful scenery naturally attracted more and more people as Yu Huan and Yu Luo moved forward, until they seemed to be a long distance away from Tianyu City. These teams then dispersed one after another because of their respective tasks or other things. Only some vehicles, which were either because they had completed their tasks or had nothing to do, were still following the two.
Ye Chen did not show much concern about the small commotion he caused behind him from beginning to end, and he did not even glance sideways. It seemed as if he was just admiring the scenery around him. However, in fact, only Yu Luo beside her could see that at this moment a light curtain was lighting up in front of Yu Huan, and a map of the dinner party was constantly expanding in the light curtain.
In response, Yu Huan stared at the map on the screen in front of him without blinking, comparing it with the surroundings from time to time as if he was looking for something.
"Insufficient energy?"
In the mercenary guild, when Yu Huan suggested that he wanted to find some interesting things or tasks to do because he was bored, such a request was originally rather unreasonable. However, because Yu Huan's position in Xu Magia was like that of the supreme leader, it was natural that after hearing Yu Huan's words, the other party immediately began to screen out all the tasks that could make the elder sister less bored, difficult, and that the elder sister could complete without danger with her strength.
Finally, after a series of screenings, the receptionist, Miss Xumajia, issued such a task for Yuhuan... Of course, the entire Tianyu City belongs to Yuhuan, so there is naturally no need for any reward. As for Yuhuan, he does not need to go through the procedures required to register as a mercenary and accept the task... Obviously, Miss Xumajia can take care of it all by herself without any hindrance.
The price Yu Huan had to pay for this was very simple: he had to give the other person the name "Yan Yan".
Well, anyway, I don't know when it started... It seems that it was when the mechanical life forms on the mechanical planet began to contact the Xumagia of Tianyu City through Yu Yuan and others. Not only the title of "Red Ponytail" as Yu Huan's spokesperson and Yu Huan's own title of "Sister" were fixed, but being named by Sister seemed to have become something that all mechanical life forms (Xumajia) expected and yearned for.
Almost everyone who sees Yu Huan will show such intention to some extent, and Yu Huan will naturally not hesitate to satisfy these little wishes of the other party and give them a name. Regardless of what the name is, it is obvious that even if it is just a random one, for these Shumagia with a name, it can be said that it is enough for them to show off on Zeya (the Internet) and be envied by everyone.
Well, it turns out that even Shumagia still has the desire to show off after having a relationship!
To sum up, Yu Huan intercepted the task related to energy collection, and energy collection... is actually an unlimited task marked in the Tianyu City.
The so-called unlimited task means that there is no limit on the number of people, no limit on the level, and no limit on acceptance. To put it bluntly, it is a task that anyone can accept and anyone can take it.
Of course, that's true, but in reality, this type of mission is one of the most difficult for the mercenaries in the Mercenary Guild. If you ask why:
Mission level: Unlimited
Mission requirements: Collect any usable energy in the ruins (energy-rich materials are prioritized, especially silver debris!)
Mission conditions: Bring the collected energy back to Tianyu City and provide it to the Tianyu City Mercenary Association!
Mission rewards: You can get Tianyu City points and money rewards according to the energy level, or you can exchange them for items recorded in the Mercenary Guild according to the energy required.
Task evaluation: Do it within your ability!
Hmm… Does the format of this task look familiar? That's right, this is actually a task Yu Yuan directly expanded from the system task interface, and the purpose is naturally… energy (spiritual coins)!
Spirit coins can be said to be the most important materials for the operation and use of the system. The value of spirit coins comes from the conversion of energy, which has always been a top priority for the system.
Thinking back to the time when Yu Huan was still weak, she undoubtedly had to look for various relics and trouble with some strange beasts in the ruins for the sake of spirit coins. Her purpose was naturally to exchange spirit coins and then use the system to perform various transformations.
And now, although because she inherited the throne of God and obtained all the bonuses of the system, Yu Huan has long passed the era when she needed to rely on spirit coins to "buy things". After all, the entire system now belongs to her completely. She can just do it directly if she wants. There is no need to go through the medium of spirit coins.
But in reality, this does not mean that spiritual coins are useless to Yu Huan or the system.
After all... the operation of Tianyu City requires spirit coins as energy, the operation of Zeya requires spirit coins as energy, and even the operation of all the Xumagia in Tianyu City and the various patrollers and guardians from other worlds who want to travel through these worlds undoubtedly require spirit coins to operate.
Of course, as a price, if the forces in various planes want to use these, they basically need to pay for it themselves, that is, spend their own energy to exchange for spirit coins.
45.Energy
The system belongs to Yuhuan, there is no doubt about that. It is something that no one can take away, not even Yu who has a mirror system. However, as Yuhuan's strength gradually increases, and he finally gets the inheritance of the goddess, and then completely gets the power of "Zi-O" with the help of Yu, the help that the system can provide to Yuhuan has gradually begun to decrease.
Of course, this doesn't mean that the system is useless. It's just that for the time being, the 'power' of the system that Yu Huan can use can only reach this level. Unless the system can be further upgraded, this is basically the limit... After all, the system was once hailed as a mysterious existence that even the gods could not study or attribute to themselves. Even as the former Goddess of Star Creation, she was at most a 'close friend' of the other party rather than the owner.
At this point, Yu Huan can be said to be the first one to own the system, to be truly recognized as the master, and to be regarded as the master by the other party. However, no one knows how much potential and power the system has. Obviously, Yu Huan himself needs to discover and explore it.
Do you think the power of the system is just the two simple concepts of "Masked Rider" and "Magical Girl"?
That is of course totally wrong. After all, these two concepts are not the original powers of the system, but the two powers that are most suitable for Yu Huan that are automatically derived from the system after it recognized its master and combined with Yu Huan's "memory". To put it bluntly, it is just a manifestation of a certain power of the system. As for the extent of the system's true power... no one knows!
Even Yu, who has had the mirror system for hundreds of years, doesn't know!
As for the things above that realm, it is natural that Yu Huan has not yet come into contact with them. After all, Yu Huan, who is not even a demigod, is not qualified to come into contact with them. However, compared with the gods, she has already obtained the "qualification".
Of course, having said that, for now, possessing the power of Kamen Rider and Magical Girl is at least enough for Yuhuan in this world where there is no "God".
I've gone off topic. Let's get back to the topic... In short, after Yu Huan obtained the power of 'Oma Zi-O', the role that the system could play around Yu Huan was obviously weakened. Finally, after combining Yu's suggestions and everyone's wishes, Yu Yuan finally agreed to open the system's low-level permissions to the entire Tianyu City system when Tianyu City was created, and used it to share information with Zeya.
Although Zeya can only use a few system permissions under this sharing, there are only three types: 'Initial Contract Ranger, Guardian', 'Issue Tasks', and 'Primary Equipment Modification', but this is undoubtedly a good thing for the development of Tianyu City.
It is precisely because of the open system permissions that Tianyu City has been able to achieve its current achievements in just a few years. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Xiao Ya and others to achieve what a multi-person force can do, no matter how powerful they are.
Of course, along with the opening of system permissions, small planes were connected to Tianyu City, the Xumagia machines were created, and the Mercenary Guild was established... In short, as the entire Tianyu City began to operate normally, the system inevitably encountered a not-so-small trouble: the energy problem!
The use of the system requires a price, especially when it is not used by Yu Huan himself. Simply put, even if it is just the most basic permissions, if people other than Yu Huan want to use it, they basically need to provide the system with more than ten times the original value of these "permissions". To put it bluntly, if Yu Huan needs 100 spirit coins to modify a belt, then it means that other people will need a full 1,000 spirit coins to modify it... That's roughly the reason.
To put it bluntly, we just want the system to help Tianyu City operate. It’s very simple... It’s not about money, it’s about energy!
This is the 'rule' of the system, and it is something that even Yu Yuan, as a system spirit, cannot interfere with.
In view of this, in the early days of the founding of Tianyu City, Xiao Ya and others could be said to have been desperately wandering around in the ruins or exploring in various ways every day. In the end, they built Tianyu City bit by bit with the collected energy. At the same time, this is also the fundamental reason why the women have always been committed to exploring the ruins.
After that, with the proposal of the mercenary system and the influx of a large number of outsiders into the inner city, although Tianyu City was originally built as a "Xumajia" city, Xiao Ya and others are still "human" after all. As a satellite, Zeya naturally cannot ignore this, especially when his creator was once a human.
Thus, Tianyu City was divided into two cities, the inner and outer cities, and the Mercenary Guild was established... Various tasks were released one after another. After the initial hard work, Tianyu City finally began to be replenished with energy materials sold or exchanged by the mercenaries, and the energy was gradually replenished.
Mercenaries accept missions and earn "money" from Tianyu City to purchase "equipment, supplies, etc." in Tianyu City. The things they hand in for missions or sell will be screened by Zeya. Except for some things needed by the mission client, Tianyu City will only charge a basic handling fee. For other things, the useful ones that can be modified will be kept, and the rest will all be converted into energy for the operation of Tianyu City.
It is under such mutually beneficial circumstances that Tianyu City has been able to thrive and gradually attract the attention of other forces. The mercenary industry has also gradually developed a system that competes with and is inseparable from the scavengers.
Originally, under this kind of cooperation, there was no problem in the operation of Tianyu City. Not only that, thanks to the system's shady money-making method of "ten times the price", the system even directly accumulated a large amount of spirit coins and stored them in the system for its owner to use at any time... Well, that's right, it is obviously useless for the system to earn spirit coins, so there is only one person who will ultimately use these so-called "extra gains": Yu Huan.
This was the situation originally, but with the invasion of silver, everything has undoubtedly changed.
Insufficient energy... Although that's what Xumagia's 'Yan Yan' said, it's actually not as serious as she said. After all, if all the spirit coins 'for the master' stored in the system were used up, it would be no problem to keep Tianyu City running for at least a thousand years. Not to mention that even Zeya's current reserves are enough to run Tianyu City for about a hundred years.
The reason for issuing this unlimited task is simply to prepare for a rainy day. To be honest... who would complain about having too much money (spiritual coins)?
Especially during this period, because of the emergence of silver, a large number of Xumagia were sent to fight. In addition, there were many problems such as the establishment of the Tianyu Army. Any of these obviously required spiritual coins. Taking into account the current situation, the Mercenary Union issued such a task, and the purpose was naturally to reserve more energy and store it as a "strategic material" to facilitate the future fight against silver.
To sum up, after knowing all this, Yu Huan was very generous... and did not take out the spirit coins that the system had stored for her to support Tianyu City. After all, it was not the time when she was at the end of her rope, so she resolutely decided that for the operation of Tianyu City, as the city lord, she must set an example... and go out to find usable energy to replenish it!
Well… although this righteous speech was met with scorn from everyone, including Yu Yuan, after Yu Huan decisively accepted the mission and also took on an "energy collection" mission issued by the system itself, why would Yu Huan, a good city lord who was dedicated to serving the people, care about these things? Right!
"It's probably around here!"
According to the map provided by Zeya, there are obviously many large and small ruins or ruined cities near Tianyu City. These cities or ruins are either plagued by various natural disasters or strange beasts, or have powerful guards or defense programs, etc. Therefore, even if the specific location is known, Tianyu City did not announce it due to consideration of the losses.
Of course, another reason is naturally... Since these were all discovered by Tianyu City, then the power of discovery naturally belongs to Tianyu City. If they are made public and discovered by others, wouldn’t that be making wedding dresses for others, which would be a loss, right?
Of course, these were obviously not a problem for Yu Huan, so after getting Zeya's map, she came here without hesitation to start looking for these ruins. Her purpose... was naturally to empty them and use them to fill her own backyard... No, Tianyu City!
"Yes, according to route analysis, there's a Grade B ruin buried approximately three thousand meters below us. The entrance hasn't been found yet, but we're guessing it should be within a three-hundred-meter radius!"
Yu Huan's question was answered by Yu Luo behind him. As a secretary, she had obviously made all the preparations since Yu Huan accepted the task. She looked at Yu Huan and asked:
"Do you need to activate the detection function to find the entrance?"
Such words were met with a slight smile and a shake of the head from Yu Huan.
"It's only three thousand meters. There's no need to go through so much trouble to find the entrance!"
As she spoke, the Heart of the Rising Sun appeared in her hand. Yu Luo instantly understood what her elder sister meant and nodded slightly before falling silent.
There are no pits in this world, but if there are too many explosions... pits will naturally form!
46. Follow me!
(Here's an update, I'll be on hiatus for one day. Sorry, I received news yesterday that my grandpa passed away, so I really don't have time...)
"Boom boom boom~~~"
The earth shook, truly the earth shook, the rushing wind ruthlessly overturned the few clouds in the sky, and huge hurricanes surrounded it from all directions, and although they were far away, they still gave people a feeling of a strong wind.
The red light rising into the sky, coupled with the huge effect like an earthquake, almost made people think that it was the arrival of a frenzy of strange beasts or a natural disaster earthquake. All the mercenaries and scavengers who were scavenging in the cities near Tianyu City were undoubtedly looking nervously in a certain direction of the source of the earthquake, with eyes full of surprise and uncertainty.
Perhaps some people really considered whether to retreat, but some people thought immediately... this might be an opportunity. Therefore, since they themselves were not lacking in adventurous spirit, some scavengers and mercenaries saw the direction and immediately rushed in a certain direction.
At this moment, in the center of the explosion, or in the direction of the culprit of all the blasts, Yu Huan calmly put away the Heart of the Rising Sun in his hand, looked at the huge, almost bottomless sand pit below with satisfaction, and nodded slightly.
"Very good! It just hit the edge of the ruins without damaging anything. My magic control is really getting stronger now!"
It's getting stronger and stronger, and its power is also getting greater and greater... After all, a God's Rift can directly penetrate more than 3,000 meters of ground... Is this something a human can do? Not even a magician can do it!
Of course, because Yu Luo was the only Xu Magiya around Yu Huan at this moment and because the other party didn't complain, naturally no one mentioned this point. In fact, as early as when Yu Huan just started the bombing, Yu Luo had already found a shelter and hid in it with an expressionless face. She only came out after knowing that Yu Huan was done. Her body was spotless, as if what had just happened had not affected her at all.
"Do you need me to go down and explore the way first, Lord City Lord?"
There was no fluctuation in her calm voice, and her folded hands did not move at all. Even under the huge wind pressure caused by Yu Huan's recent bombardment, she still stood there quietly like a statue, but her eyes were staring straight at Yu Huan.
"No, let's go down together, it's okay!"
Of course Yu Huan understood what Yu Luo said. If she went down to explore the way first, Yu Luo could eliminate any danger in advance or serve as a cannon fodder. This seemed like a matter of course for Yu Luo, but Yu Huan obviously didn't think much of it. Therefore, she decisively rejected Yu Luo's opinion and jumped into the deep pit without any hesitation.
"..."
In response to this, Yu Luo watched Yu Huan's movements without the slightest hesitation, then he also jumped lightly and followed him down, and then...
"Lord City Lord!"
Amidst the whistling sound of the wind, Yu Huan used the Heart of the Rising Sun and the pink wings behind him to maintain a basic state of flight and descent. He looked at Yu Luo, who was looking at him expressionlessly while his body was falling rapidly. He asked curiously:
"What's wrong?"
Looking at the other person's calm expression, Yu Huan scratched his head curiously, but heard Yu Luo speaking in a slow and steady voice while falling rapidly:
"Untransformed, I can't fly!"
The voice was light and airy, as if it was simply stating something, and the tone was still without any fluctuation.
"..."
"..."
"……Clam?"
"Untransformed, I can't fly!"
Yu Huan tilted his head in confusion, then heard Yu Luo's calm report. Then, after watching the other's rapidly falling body...
"..."
"..."
The falling speed was very fast. Three thousand meters actually did not take long. While the two were talking so calmly, a trace of silver-white metal could be vaguely seen below.
"Fuck!"
In an instant, Yu Huan's eyes changed drastically. The next second, with the wings of light flashing behind her, she stretched out her hand without hesitation and held Yu Luo in her arms. At the same time, when the opponent's falling force fell on her body, just when the two were about to land, Yu Huan also used all her strength to rush upwards.
"Bang~~~"
A huge sound echoed in the deep pit. The silver-white metal ground was directly smashed into a deep hole by the girl's forced fall, extending to the interior of the ruins under the broken metal.
"Cough cough~~cough cough cough~~"
Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, a cough slowly emerged. At the same time, two figures, completely obscured by the smoke and dust, immediately stepped out. Looking at the endless silver passage before them, Yu Huan didn't know what expression to show on his face.
"Come on, I was planning to observe first before slowly sneaking in, but now... they just walked right in!"
Of course not. Facing unknown ruins, even though Yu Huan was confident in his own strength, he never thought of rushing in directly. Instead, he prepared to explore the periphery as a scavenger. After at least figuring out the general situation of the ruins, he would gradually conduct reconnaissance and excavation. This was obviously what a real scavenger should do. As for the bombardment at the beginning... well, that was to save time!
