Chapter 1388: Chapter 1292: Mining Machine in Position
When Little Li received Da Fei’s call to report his joyous news, she was indeed filled with mixed emotions. Joy, because she could finally help her big brother; the mining machine was right beside her alt accounts, Harem Beauty and Fleeting Blossom. Worry, because how should she tell Little Fang? Whether it’s Little Fang or big brother, neither wants a third person to know their true identity, and big brother’s reasons are tied to the National Security Bureau, making them sufficiently compelling.
Little Fang’s reasons don’t need explaining either; for a woman, everything from the three measurements to the color of ** is a secret, let alone one’s true identity online.
However, now that big brother is seizing the mine and racing against time, and Little Fang is still asleep during her shift, it’s best to not worry too much and handle everything herself. In fact, the only reason Little Li took time to call Da Fei was because Little Fang was snoozing away.
Little Li responded, "Got it. Should I notify Fleeting Blossom directly myself, or do you want me to have Bloodrose Qiqi notify her?"
Da Fei replied without hesitation, "This is a big deal, and the fewer people know, the better. There’s no need to let Bloodrose and the others know. Once they know, everyone in the China Region will know, then the whole world will know, and that’s a hassle! Just notify her privately—uh, there’s no monitoring of your game character’s conversation by the Bloodrose Guild’s headquarters, right? Actually, it’s not even necessary to notify her, as long as she’s online, my NPC is already holding the promissory note to find her."
Little Li laughed, "Big brother, you’re very thoughtful. It’s okay, I’m not doing a task right now, so I’m not being monitored."
Da Fei, reassured, said, "Alright, then let Fleeting Blossom wait at the entrance of her farm; this is the address certified from the note."
"Understood."
After hanging up the call with big brother, Little Li immediately operated Fleeting Blossom’s account and teleported back to the farm. Meanwhile, Da Fei, having hung up, of course anxiously and excitedly awaited the latest news.
...
At this moment, the Mitsubishi Team Command Center was equally in a frenzy. Reports poured in from all over the country, all containing the same message: No Phoenix Feather found!
Unable to find Phoenix Feather, the subsequent actions in Japan would have to be indefinitely delayed, exacerbating Mitsubishi Team’s anxiety. Phoenix Feather was a red name, ruling out the possibility of hiding in the city, so could only be in the great outdoors. And outdoors was vast enough that it could randomly hide in a grove and be impossible to find. There’s even the possibility that Phoenix Feather has logged off.
If a logged-off Phoenix Feather could frighten tens of thousands of Japanese players into not daring to act lightly, that would be challenging the Mitsubishi Consortium’s management’s tolerance limit! The upper management of the consortium actually doesn’t care about wins and losses in the games; they’re only concerned whether they’ve been nurturing a bunch of losers, and losers that disgrace the Great Japanese National Body.
The situation has reached this point, and the Mitsubishi Team, with no options left, had to turn to the United States for ideas. After all, the United States managed to destroy one of Da Fei’s vice heroes, and only the United States has the capability to help hunt for Phoenix Feather.
Thus, upon receiving the Mitsubishi team’s plea for assistance, the U.S. Supernova Team captain Fortson once again gathered the Special Action Group’s youths to discuss tactics.
Tommy sneered, "From this event, I’ve deeply realized the Japanese will never challenge Great America’s overlord status, because they’re just too stupid!"
Fortson chuckled in surprise, "How are they stupid?"
Tommy snorted, "Why help them hunt? If you can’t find the enemy, you don’t need to find him; he’ll deliver himself to death’s door!"
Fortson laughed heartily, "True, since the only purpose of this Phoenix Feather is to wait for Japan’s next gathering to harvest heads, then to have him appear, Japan merely needs to continue the gathering."
Tommy smiled, "Exactly, if he appears, we’ll ambush and take him out. If he doesn’t, Japan can achieve its goals without being disturbed."
Fortson nodded, "Yes, we’ll ambush near the gathering crowd. We mustn’t let Phoenix Feather become the second Da Fei, he’s alone and free of attachments, much more dangerous than Da Fei."
When the Mitsubishi team received the latest instructions from Captain America, a sudden realization hit, causing all team members to frantically slap their own faces in frustration; why hadn’t they thought of such a simple tactic?
Thus, the second human wave tactic at the Ancient Tree Wall on March 3 started unfolding again. Although the widespread dissatisfaction among Japanese players had not yet dissipated, this is the moment of the mission’s call, this is the time to demonstrate the indomitable spirit of the Yamato people!
Meanwhile, to echo local actions and divert the world’s attention, and to also regain the confidence of the consortium’s upper management, the main forces of the Mitsubishi Team in the China Region’s Divine Punishment Battlefield began applying pressure on Divine Punishment City as well. This time, the Mitsubishi Team would showcase the power of high-level demons to the world!
...
At Beijing Time 4:40 PM, when Da Fei felt like a year in Lamp God Space, the system prompt chimed:
——System Prompt: Your Flying’s Sain Lamp God Freight Space has received a letter from Sain, please check.
Da Fei trembled all over and eagerly pounced on the letter appearing in the teleportation array, then impatiently opened it:
——Dear Mr. Da Fei:
I have seen your contractor, Lady Fleeting Blossom, and the marvelous mining machine. However, I lack the power to directly teleport this machine onto the Flying; it must be routed through the Exiled Lands, where our teleportation array can send it onto the Flying. Yet, I lack the strength to teleport this machine to the Exiled Lands, but Holy Crown City can, though it requires your contractor, Lady Fleeting Blossom, to pay a substantial sum as the sender.
Under normal circumstances, Lady Fleeting Blossom isn’t qualified to initiate this business; it’s achieved through my full guarantee as Vice Manager, and Lady Fleeting Blossom has agreed to pay the fee. Once the machine is teleported to the Exiled Lands, all problems are no longer issues. This is to notify you. ——Your most loyal friend, Sain.
...
It worked! Looking at the letter in hand, Da Fei was filled with complex emotions! Da Fei certainly knows the painful price players will pay when forcibly undertaking Mage City’s business they’re unqualified for. Fleeting Blossom is truly thoughtful, well-deserving of brother’s support!
Of course, the next thing is the usual practice: let Elda help teleport the machine over, right? Brother has already sent lots of high energy ore there, the energy for teleportation shouldn’t be an issue, so let’s calmly wait! It’s imaginable that once the machine arrives, that’ll be such a mad mining rhythm! No, not just mining? Brother wants to log too! Anyway, it’s all Japan’s scenes, they don’t cherish it themselves, why should brother be polite?
While Da Fei was lost in thought, the system prompt rang again:
——System Prompt: You...received a letter from Sain...
Da Fei’s heart sank, another letter? Could there be a change? Da Fei, with a restless heart, clicked open the letter:
——Dear Mr. Da Fei:
Holy Crown City’s high-level technicians have seen your mining machine, praised it highly, and want to add two auxiliary equipment bars to your machine, allowing for two additional drill equipment slots, each drill can increase mining efficiency by 10%. Lady Fleeting Blossom is willing to pay a hefty fee for your upgrade. Since it’s your machine, do you agree?
——Your loyal Sain.
Oh my! Da Fei was moved to tears, my machine can be upgraded with equipment slots? Fleeting Blossom, you’re truly considerate!
Da Fei immediately replied, agreeing!
At Beijing Time 5:00 PM, the Exiled Lands. At this time, red-named players from all over the world have gradually arrived to check the area, the entire ruins camp, and the surroundings are filled with the silhouettes of these red names. The previously quiet Red Name Village thus became bustling with people.
Just then, a flash of red light in the central square of Red Name Village signaled the arrival of new players; with every new arrival, the players present would unconsciously turn to glance, and this time, the crowd erupted!
There stood a large machine-like object cloaked in black cloth in the square! Red Name Village could bring such large parts?
The players next to the machine caused uproar throughout the square: China’s famous Female Lord, Fleeting Blossom, the new chief director of Canal Company! She’s come as well!
Under the stunned gazes of the players present, Fleeting Blossom took out a scroll and handed it to the One-Winged Angel in the center of the square, then followed the angel, along with her machine, into the village warehouse.
At this moment, the players finally reacted, and rushed to block the warehouse entrance, awaiting her exit for a close-up look! Without question, this meant an earth-shaking large-scale project was about to occur in the Exiled Lands, considering even a big boss capable of opening a canal like Fleeting Blossom was willing to turn red to get involved!
