Chapter 382: Chapter 363: First Arrival in Tianshui City
Tianshui City is located in the south of Hua Country, known as a water town of Hua Country.
The climate here is mild, with distinct seasons and abundant rainfall, making it one of the important tourist cities within Hua Country.
At ten o’clock this evening, a plane from Binhai City landed on the runway of Tianshui City’s international airport.
After a while, Lin Yi and his group walked out of Tianshui City International Airport with large bags and small bags.
After hearing about Luoshen Liunian’s situation, Lin Yi originally thought of coming alone to see what was going on.
However, when they found out they were going to Tianshui City, the ’gang’ led by Ouyang Hao immediately refused to stay behind and insisted on coming along.
Allegedly fearing Lin Yi would be lonely by himself, in reality, they used the pretense of ’accompanying’ to go out for fun.
Perhaps they had an accurate grasp of Lin Yi’s character, as Lin Yi didn’t last two rounds before conceding, deciding to bring them along for a break.
However, according to Lin Yi’s plan, this trip would only last two days, so everyone brought a few changes of clothes and their own gaming helmets.
Zhan Tianpeng, who was very familiar with this city, was temporarily made the guide and said:
"Everyone must be tired after the long flight, so I won’t arrange any programs for tonight."
"I’ve already arranged hotels for everyone, so later just follow me, and we’ll take a car directly there."
While speaking, Zhan Tianpeng also gestured in sign language to Ouyang Jing.
Everyone expressed no objections to this, considering they had played games all day and then sat on a plane for two hours; nobody had the energy or interest to go out wandering.
After seeing no objections, Zhan Tianpeng continued:
"Tonight, let’s all go back and rest well first."
"Tomorrow, I will take you to experience the scenery and food of Tianshui City, to make sure everyone leaves with a deep impression and that the trip is worthwhile."
"Also!"
Then Zhan Tianpeng generously said:
"From now on, all expenses here are on me."
"Tonight, go back and rest well. Tomorrow, don’t be shy with me, buy whatever you like, and I’ll cover it."
"Since we rarely come here, we can’t let everyone go home empty-handed, right?"
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Hao’s eyes suddenly gleamed, and he gave a thumbs-up, saying:
"Peng, that’s impressive! I love having friends like you."
Then, he couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
Guo Shaojie joined in excitedly on the side:
"If that’s the case, then I won’t hold back."
Zhan Tianpeng laughed heartily:
"As long as you’re not planning to buy the whole city of Tianshui for me, there’s no need to be shy."
Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
At this moment, it seemed like only Shen Yanhua, who was out with everyone for the first time, and his fiancée, Jiang Jiaying, were a bit bashful, while everyone else was more relaxed.
This included Fang Zhengrong, who seemed to be a simple, honest man, and his wife Chen Ping.
Of course, everyone was joking and wouldn’t really be irresponsible enough to buy everything they wanted as Zhan Tianpeng suggested.
Even though Zhan Tianpeng didn’t mind.
Apart from Wang Sijie and Wang Zixin, the rest were all adults and naturally knew the difference between a joke and something to take seriously.
Witnessing this scene from behind, Lin Yi silently put the "company expense" card back in his pocket, thinking:
Since someone wants to be the generous host, wouldn’t it be unreasonable of me not to let them?
Guo Shaojie suddenly said to Ouyang Hao:
"Once we’re at the hotel, shall we continue with the remaining four rounds of the dungeon?"
Ouyang Hao appeared indifferent, saying:
"No problem!"
Now in Lin Yi’s Mercenary Corps, besides Lin Yi, who reached level 35, Guo Shaojie (Shuai Diao Zha) is level 36; Ouyang Hao (Tian Ci), Wang Sijie (Red Eyes), and Zhan Tianpeng (Zhan Chen) are level 35.
Others are below level 35 and cannot enter the Mutated Cave dungeon.
These five just happened to form a team to venture into the dungeon.
Speaking of the dungeon, Guo Shaojie couldn’t help but complain again:
"The drop rate for Wings of Flight is ridiculously low. We did it four times and didn’t even see a feather. Who knows when we’ll get one."
Guo Shaojie’s obsession with Wings of Flight had reached an almost insane level.
Along the way, he frequently mentioned it.
Ouyang Hao chuckled:
"The drop rate for this kind of equipment is obviously not going to be high."
"Besides, we’re doing an elite-level dungeon; the drop rate definitely won’t be high."
Hearing this, Guo Shaojie promptly said:
"How about we try the Nightmare Level tonight?"
Ouyang Hao shivered at the suggestion:
"No, we already tried it in the afternoon. We got wiped instantly. Let’s wait till we’re all level 40 before trying again."
At this moment, Lin Yi suddenly said:
"I have something tonight, so you guys go ahead without me."
Everyone was startled; Ouyang Hao looked at Lin Yi in surprise, quickly guessing Lin Yi’s intention:
"Are you planning to meet him tonight?"
"That guy should be fine for a while. You can rest tonight and go tomorrow."
Lin Yi pondered for a moment and decided:
"I’ll just go check out the situation first, and see how it goes."
Seeing this, Ouyang Hao didn’t say anything more.
Zhan Tianpeng added:
"Going there won’t take long. I’ll have the driver take you, boss, there in a bit."
Ouyang Hao suddenly remembered something,
"Should I notify them that we’ve arrived?"
Lin Yi quickly stopped him:
"No need."
Lin Yi intended to check the situation first, which is why he initially didn’t want Ouyang Hao to respond to the other party.
After all, he didn’t have much interaction with Luo Shen Liunian before, and the sudden call for help seemed suspicious to Lin Yi.
So he planned to take advantage of the other party’s unguarded moment to check it out, hoping to discover something.
Then Lin Yi approached Zhang Xinying:
"Once we get back to the hotel, get some rest."
"Don’t play the game too late tonight, sleep early."
Everyone had brought their gaming helmets, which didn’t relieve fatigue or replace sleep like gaming pods.
Zhang Xinying looked at Lin Yi worriedly:
"You don’t need to worry about me. I know what I’m doing."
"You should be careful on your visit this time."
Lin Yi nodded:
"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine."
At level 39 in the game, Lin Yi was confident that no one in the real world could harm him.
His physical strength was almost invulnerable.
As everyone walked out of the airport,
A row of luxury business cars was waiting. Zhan Tianpeng said:
"Come on, everyone get in the cars."
He arranged a separate car for Lin Yi and informed the driver of the destination.
Finally, Zhan Tianpeng came to Lin Yi’s side:
"The forces there are complicated, but I believe you, boss, can handle it."
"Still, be careful."
Zhan Tianpeng’s face turned unusually serious:
"Take care."
Lin Yi smiled:
"Don’t worry."
Then Lin Yi looked at the cars ahead and advised:
"The rest is up to you; contact me immediately if there’s anything."
"Alright!"
Lin Yi patted the driver’s shoulder upfront:
"Let’s go."
