Wu Chen originally thought that crossing the spiral zone was similar to smuggling across the border. As long as you pass through the pipeline safely, the exit at the other end will be the dynamic edge of the fantasy spiral. However it is not that simple. This pipeline is often used for smuggling. As the 0819 pilot said, dangers are everywhere. Because the pipeline is also dynamic. Every day is completely different from the day before. Just relying on memory is completely useless. In this way, 0819 Navigator must be outstanding.
"Master, energy is surging ahead." Before Zhi Nao finished speaking, thick fog was rolling in.
"0326, don't get out of the car." The navigator's warning sounded immediately.
Wu Chen remained calm in the face of danger: "Armored riding."
"Yes." The female riders on the left and right immediately transformed into Terminator armored riding forms.
"Armored riding", somewhere between a motorcycle and a humanoid. The female rider is covered by the Terminator's deformed armor, and the human and vehicle become one. It looks like a T800 Terminator robot riding a motorcycle. In fact, the person riding the motorcycle is a female warrior wearing T800 Terminator power armor.
The female rider just transformed into armor and rode. The pipeline was flooded by the fog tide. Wu Chen personally experienced a similar situation in 404 Road to Destruction. This is a sign that the world is shattering, annihilating, and turning into nothingness.
However, in Broken City, something different happened.
As the fog surges, the pipelines from the fantasy spiral quickly replace the original sci-fi spiral pipelines.
For Wu Chen, a newbie here. The mist surged over everything and everything was disfigured. It seems to be the same pipeline, but the internal structure is completely different from before. Even the positioning marking points set by Zhi Nao along the way have all disappeared.
"How could this happen?" Zhinao lost his sense of direction for the first time.
"No wonder we need a navigator." Wu Chen looked ahead and saw DMC-12 still moving forward in the pipeline unhurriedly: "0819, will the pipeline structure change every time there is a 'tide'?"
"Yes, 0326." The navigator replied: "This is the true meaning of dynamic balance. Ever-changing, never repetitive."
"It's like an underground maze that changes day and night. You must have a way to find the right path." Wu Chen smiled.
"0326, it's as you said. To put it bluntly, no one knows this dynamic path except me." The navigator looked slightly satisfied. This should be his innate ability.
"Let's keep in touch in the future." Wu Chen expressed his kindness.
"No problem, 0326." There are many friends and many routes, and the navigator will accept everyone who comes.
"Master, an abnormal energy field has been detected." Zhi Nao Ai projected the unknown energy field in the pipeline onto the windshield.
"Huh?" Wu Chen saw clearly, an unknown linear energy field spreading through the pipeline. Even a small drop of water falling to the ground contains alien energy.
"Could it be..." Wu Chen seemed to have some realization. Could it be that the navigator relies on these linear energy fields to cross the pipeline?
"Day and night are about to change. How about taking a safe house for a while?" the navigator suggested.
"Okay." Wu Chen had no objection as the guest followed the host.
"Follow me." DMC-12 went straight up and entered a fork in the road.
Lin Baiyu drove the AE86 to keep up. The female riders on the left and right maintained their armored riding postures and followed closely behind. Weaving around in the huge vertical downward pipe network, after an unknown period of time, DMC-12 was the first to land on an external deck.
Across the deck was what the navigator called the safe house.
"Boss Chu?" He walked in and met an acquaintance.
"Good day, 0326." The owner of Mocha Coffee House smiled broadly.
"Why are you here?" Wu Chen asked in surprise.
The navigator answered on his behalf: "Boss Chu walks in a four-system spiral and is the most famous 'debris catcher' in the city."
"Debris Catcher." Wu Chen was even more surprised: "Could it be that Boss Chu can capture plot characters and make asylum cards?!"
"Yes." The navigator smiled and asked: "You don't know, do you, 0326?"
"I really don't know." Wu Chen sighed self-deprecatingly.
"It's okay." Glancing at the female rider who was disarming and riding, the owner of the coffee shop smiled and said, "We haven't seen you for a few days, and you have your own exclusive card."
Cards equal fragments. Wu Chen smiled and said, "Time waits for no one. Just gather strength before the cleaning day comes, just to protect yourself."
"That's right." The coffee shop owner smiled.
Navigator players are full of praise for the transforming armor of the Motorcycle Terminator: "0326, do you want to buy the transforming motorcycle?"
"Make a price." Wu Chen refused anyone who came.
"...Hmm" It can be seen that the navigator player really wants it: "I have a 2-star card. Do you want to change it?"
2-star cards are priced at 100 coins. But Wu Chen's Motorcycle Terminator can help upgrade 2-star cards to 3-stars, so they are more valuable: "Two and a half stars can be exchanged."
"Let's see if it works." The navigator took out a card from DMC-12: Cyber Monster Perrier (Perrier, Spider Woman).
"Cyber monster girl?" Wu Chen has no memory and no idea of its origin.
"From my former exclusive main world." The navigator player expressed reluctance: "Can transform into a spider woman form. Specializes in sneaking, seduction, stealing, assassination, and so on. She is a rare female assassin. Later I paid a high price , transformed into a Cyber Banshee.”
"If it's so useful, why trade?" Wu Chen asked with a smile.
"As you can see, I am a navigator. I will not participate in the fighting between players." The navigator's words seemed credible.
"Does it conflict with me?" Wu Chen was quite moved.
"No problem." The coffee shop owner replied.
"Okay." Wu Chen chose to believe: "How to trade?"
"Is the transformed motorcycle a card?" the navigator asked hurriedly.
"It's a creation from the flat base." Wu Chen replied.
"That's easy to handle." The navigator handed the card to the coffee shop owner: "You take the transformed motorcycle to the Mocha Cafe. Boss Chu will take care of everything."
"Okay." Wu Chen agreed happily.
"She only drinks Perrier water," the navigator reminded kindly.
No wonder the monster girl is called "Perry". Perrier drinking water is known as the Hermes of pure water. Because it is produced in Paris, it is also called "Perrier" and is expensive. Especially in Broken City, I don’t know where to buy it.
"Don't worry, Mocha Coffee House sells it." The coffee house owner smiled and said, "Package price."
Wu Chen smiled bitterly: "0819, you won't be reluctant to part with me just because of this, right?"
"No way, no way, haha..." The laughter said it all. It is indeed a waste to raise a monster girl who only drinks Perrier water. You know, it only costs 1 coin to maintain the tablet base for a whole day.
Everyone gets what they need, and both parties are satisfied. Once alive, twice familiar. With this transaction, Wu Chen and the navigator have deepened their relationship with each other.
The coffee shop owner is like a guide for new people. Every player who enters Broken City for the first time will receive his guidance and help. Because of this, Mocha Coffee House has become a gathering place for players over time. Various gatherings and salons are held in an endless stream. Word of mouth continues to accumulate, and secured transactions become routine.
Wu Chen was very curious about how players' exclusive cards could be unbound from the plot.
The coffee shop owner smiled and said, "Cleaning day."
Wu Chen suddenly realized: "That's it."
Since the cleanup day can clear the player's archives on the 12th. Plot fragments are certainly no exception.
Wu Chen's heart moved: "You came to Dynamic Edge to capture the debris because of the cleaning day."
"That's right." The coffee shop owner didn't need to hide anything: "The fragments that have been eliminated from the plot branch will probably be hidden in the edge of the dynamic."
"So, the dynamic edge is actually the 'Borderless Land'." Wu Chen understood. Chaos is the norm here. The special dynamic balance makes this a lawless place where the rules of the four series cannot continue to take effect. It also makes many "wild plot characters" who become ownerless cards during the sweep day, dormant among them. Therefore, it has become a paradise for "debris catchers" such as coffee shop owners.
"You can say that." The coffee shop owner smiled happily.
Feeling the kindness in the smile of the coffee shop owner, Wu Chen suddenly felt that there was no crisis in this trip.
