Chapter 355 Are We Going To Die?

“Are you… going to explain what happened behind the garbage dump?” “As you can see, I built a simplified version of the Hellcarrier,” Zhang Heng said .

NOV

As the two were talking, the voice of the waiter echoed from a distance . “Cool, there’s even a coffee machine here? Oh, it’s Nespresso! Damn, I want a cup of coffee now How did you build this thing in three minutes?! That’s incredible! Is this the true strength of the chosen one? I take back the words I said to you before, and I apologize most sincerely to you . With your leadership, we might really be able to defeat the evil scientist …”

“It’s a bit complicated to explain . Something unexpected happened earlier; I don’t know if my method will work . ”

The unexpected event Zhang Heng referred to was the first time he played with other players in the Apollo Training Camp . His extra 24 hours caused a game-time error, and the mistake wasn’t directly intercepted by the so-called ‘second-level authority’ when he was playing alone . Zhang Heng also didn’t know what the outcome would be if he failed the audit . This time, he was in a rare quest where he could leave freely . It was the best opportunity to test it out .

The results went beyond his expectations . When the watch pointed twelve, he entered the parallel dungeon smoothly . There was no warning or penalty for cheating, and it seemed to be the system’s default way of dealing with a player like him in a multiplayer dungeon . The alarm triggered in the previous round wasn’t existent in this one .

Zhang Heng traveled to the parallel dungeon four years ago, before the incidents that happened right now . He met the young version of the bald man, the waiter, the Messenger, and other master builders . He even met the scientist before he became an evil scientist .

Just like what the bald man told him, the evil scientist was the leader of all master builders . He was powerful, fair, selfless, and charismatic . Zhang Heng could get all the answers to his questions about assembling LEGO blocks from the scientist . In fact, he was the one who had helped Zhang Heng fortify his foundation in LEGO theory .

This simplified version of Helicarrier was first proposed by the scientist, and he guided Zhang Heng step by step all the way to its completion .

Until the terrible war erupted, Zhang Heng was one of the few who got to witness how a respectable scientist turned into an evil scientist, gaining a clearer and more intuitive view of his characteristics .

“Well, I won’t ask you how you transformed from a rookie to a LEGO master in the blink of an eye… I just want to know what level your LEGO assembly skills are?” Mei Nan asked .

“Lv . 2, and it should be almost at the top of Lv . 2,” said Zhang Heng .

In those 480 days, he had practically learned all the best creations from all the master builders . In the beginning, it was difficult to learn anything from them but after his skills were upgraded to Level 2, it became a lot easier to understand these things . His strong basics also allowed him to understand the quintessence of creation, and the was no need for him to learn from the beginning .

“Tsk tsk… so, from now on, we win battles with a snap of a finger?”

Mei Nan sat down on the couch in the control room .

“It’s not that simple,” Zhang Heng shook his head . “The Evil Scientist probably has a Level 3 assembly skill . He is not on the same level as other master builders . He is something else . No one is as powerful as him, and that was three years ago . Considering how he always carried the Infinite Block with him, I don’t know how powerful he is right now . I don’t think I can defeat him . ”

“Wait a minute, with your Level 2 max strength, no one in the real world is more powerful than you . ”

“I suppose so,” Zhang Heng said . “If you can’t beat the evil scientist, then no one can complete this game . ”

Mei Nan had overestimated the strength of the evil scientist, but she still didn’t expect him to be this powerful, not without the help of Infinite Block .

“How did other master builders defeat the evil scientist three years ago?”

Zhang Heng said nothing . Instead, he looked at the bald man with a cup in hand, waiting in line to get some coffee . “Why are you looking at me? I’m just going to have cup of coffee . Is it necessary for you to keep staring at me like this? Okay… I admit that I stole a missile launch button on the control panel, but I will return it in a while, aight?”

Mei Nan soon understood what Zhang Heng meant . “You mean he is the key to defeat the evil scientist?” she asked .

“I don’t know, but you may be right . This dungeon has a very high requirement for the player’s LEGO assembly skills . Those who can’t build in this quest would not have got to where we are now, and the further the quest progresses, the higher the requirements for skills are . However, if you want to pass the final level, one cannot solely rely on their assembly skills . I haven’t thought of a way to defeat the evil scientist, but I know that the bald guy has the most special relationship with the Evil Scientist among all the master builders . And he is also the master builder who talked to us at the beginning of the quest . I think his role is more than just a novice guide . ”

“Ha! What you said reminded me that I chose to leave the waste collection station earlier, the Messenger and the bald guy were the ones that survived in the battle . The Demon Butcher sacrificed himself to let them escape . This can’t be a coincidence . It shows that he is very likely to be the final piece of the puzzle to complete the final stage . Judging by my experience, I advise you not to place too much hope on him . ”

On the other hand, the waiter had already finished a cup of coffee, and he looked refreshed . He even made two macarons and shared one with the bald man . The two had a hearty breakfast on the Helicarrier .

“We are finally safe now . Where should we go next?”

“Well, I would like to go home first and grab the smart toilet seat that the evil scientist gave me . You know, I’m returning that thing to him,” the bald man said . “After that, we can find a place to take a good bath, have a foot massage, and perhaps karaoke in the KTV . After all, the battle is in two days . We need to relax, and we just formed our team not long ago . Everyone is still unfamiliar with each other; we need some team building to increase our rapport . ”

“Good idea, I haven’t been to the KTV for a long time . The bar I work at hires a live band every night, and I learned many new songs over there . I can perform for you guys when we go to the KTV!”

The waiter rubbed his hands gleefully . Then, he suddenly remembered something .

“Wait, your previous plan to contact other master builders failed miserably . We don’t have enough people to attack Canto Tower . Does this mean we are all going to die in the upcoming battle?” .

“I don’t think so . You are too pessimistic, but I strongly recommend that we spend all our money one day before the battle,” said the bald man .
