I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 6 The way to the second floor

"You just came to the first floor, why do you want to go to the second floor?" Du Kang asked in disbelief while sighing.

"I want to go to the bottom of the abyss." Li Luo answered seriously.

Du Kang choked again, almost spitting out again, and asked: "Do you know what is at the bottom of the abyss?"

"The door to another world." Li Luo blurted out.

"That's a lie..." Du Kang wanted to deny it directly, but stopped himself: "No one knows, and those who go down never come back."

Li Luo still had a serious expression.

"Forget it, let me tell you how to get to the second floor first. Have you seen the mission counter over there?" Du Kang pointed to a counter in the hall where people were coming and going.

There is a huge screen on the counter like a waiting hall, with various tasks densely registered on it.

"If you go there and complete the mission, you can earn points. The mission screen becomes more and more difficult from front to back, and the points are getting higher and higher. Having more than 10000 monitoring station points is one of the conditions for going to the second floor of the abyss."

Li Luo learned the conditions and turned to leave, but was stopped by Du Kang.

"There is another condition, which is to have the relic." Du Kang looked at the cube behind Li Luo again: "You have already achieved this. Many people have achieved the points, but this condition cannot be achieved."

Mo Ling in the cube suddenly realized that no wonder Stationmaster Liang said that Li Luo was lucky. It turned out that Li Luo had fulfilled one of the conditions to the second floor just after the game started.

Mo Ling was also very interested in what they said about the bottom of the abyss, because they said it was the door to another world.

"Is the other world the world before me?" Mo Ling was a little excited: "If I reach the bottom of the abyss, can I go back?"

While thinking, the car started moving again, and Li Luo was already walking towards the task counter.

Du Kang was still chattering beside him:
  "First choose some herbal picking or investigation tasks at the beginning. Come back after taking the image data, and familiarize yourself with the tasks first."

"Before setting off, go over there and see if there is anything that needs to be updated in terms of equipment, supplies, and medical care. Of course, it all costs money, but it's nothing compared to your life. Remember to buy more food for your iron block."

"You can also form a team with others. The points will be divided equally, but it will be safer. I have something to do with Lao Liang, so I will leave first. Contact me if you need anything."

Du Kang was nagging beside him like an old father. Those who didn't know it thought Li Luo was his daughter.

After saying that, he waved to Li Luo and walked towards the second floor.

"This Du Kang is so enthusiastic." Mo Ling sighed.

In front of the task counter, Li Luo, who was carrying a large square, attracted the attention of many people, and most of them cast envious glances.

Especially after he recognized Li Luo as this year's new hunter, his face couldn't help but be shocked, and he unconsciously made way for Li Luo.

Li Luo looked up and saw that the task board was colorful, and the electronic screen in his hand was automatically connected to the system. You can click on it at any time to learn the details of the task.

The car followed and the mission board also came into Mo Ling's field of vision.

[Collection task: ruby ​​potatoes, ten, research and use, reward 10 monitoring station points. 】

[Collection task: smoky ore, twenty kilograms, used for casting, reward 10 monitoring station points. 】

[Investigation task: Monitoring the overflow of silverfish in the woods east of the station. Image data are required and the reward is 5 monitoring station points. 】

……

Mo Ling was stunned.

How many?

He almost thought he was dazzled and quickly scanned it again.

Yes, the points are indeed so few.

"How long will it take to get 10000 points?"

However, while Mo Ling was in a daze, the girl had already accepted the task, and the details of the task began to float on the electronic screen in her hand.

Mo Ling took a quick look.

[Investigation mission: The reason for the abnormal movement of the shock beast]

[The abnormal movement of the shock beast has destroyed many outposts and caused a large number of casualties. Early investigations found that there may be mutants carrying relics. The cause needs to be found and the abnormal movement needs to be solved. 】

[Recommended number of people: Team of 10 or more people. 】

[Reward: 1000 monitoring station points. 】

[Acceptance conditions: Shock beasts are extremely dangerous creatures, and the team needs to be equipped with lethal relics. 】    …

Mo Ling was shocked.

So fast!
  "Why did you accept it so quickly? Have you seen the number of referrals? Did you really accept the investigation task when I asked you to do so?"

Mo Ling wanted to rush out of the square and question the girl, but he couldn't.

"And what kind of investigation mission is this? Why didn't I see it?"

Mo Ling started scanning the bulletin board again, and finally found the investigation task in the last few lines of the task list.

Good guy, it turns out that Li Luo started looking from the back.

On the continuously scrolling task list, the last few rows are filled with various hunting tasks, and almost every one of them is marked as extremely dangerous.

And Li Luo accurately found the investigation mission with the most points among all the hunting missions.

On the current task bar, Li Luo's name is written clearly behind the task of investigating the cause of the shock beast's abnormal movement.

After Li Luo accepted the mission, he turned around and left without looking for his teammates. It seemed that he wanted to keep the points to himself.

Sure enough, before they could squeeze out of the crowd, they were stopped by a small team, led by a young man who looked very steady.

"Hello, you took the task of investigating the cause of the shock beast's abnormal behavior, right?"

Li Luo nodded.

The young man smiled with a smile on his face: "You are on your own, right? Our team is also willing to do this task. Do you want to join us? We can take care of each other."

Although he was talking to Li Luo, the young man's eyes still secretly glanced at the metal block behind Li Luo.

Mo Ling understood.

This team has no relics and cannot meet the conditions to accept the mission, so they want to take advantage of the mission.

"No need, I can handle it myself." Li Luo shook his head indifferently.

The young man wanted to persuade him again, but was bypassed by Li Luo.

The car carrying the metal blocks behind it drove towards the young man, turned an arc in front of him, and then left.

After Li Luo left the mission counter, he walked straight towards the store in the hall and started shopping.

At the counter, Li Luo looked at the shopping guide and asked, "Is there any food specially provided for relics?"

The shopping guide was a little frightened by Li Luo's cold gaze, and her original smile was a little stiff.

"Yes, you can find it on the shelf in the second row from the front right."

Really?

Li Luo walked along the place mentioned by the shopping guide, and Mo Ling's vision had already locked on that place in advance.

Finger cans?

Blood syrup?

Hair seaweed?

Nuclear wastewater Coke?
  Beef jerky made from pork?

A tape roll of fried instant noodles at the first ray of sunshine in the morning?
  ……

do not!
  Mo Ling didn't know why there was such a weird food, and he didn't know the price of other relics.

But Mo Ling knew that he would definitely die if he ate these.

Just as she was thinking of a way to stop Li Luo, she had already walked to the shelf and started choosing carefully.

Fortunately, when Li Luo selected these foods, he would put a portion on the cube to see how the cube reacted.

Finally, Li Luo tried to eat normal food after trying to no avail.

Mo Ling, who was sitting in the square, breathed a long sigh of relief.
