Chapter 55 Transporting Fresh Lemon Tea
Chapter 55 Transporting Fresh Lemon Tea
the next morning.
Yang Feiqi had just woken up and was thinking about what to eat later when...
Then I saw a message notification pop up on my phone.
I'm at your doorstep.
Without a doubt, the one who sent the message was Zhang Pupu.
Yang Feiqi replied helplessly, "Are you crazy? What kind of tomb raider would set up a map this early in the morning? We'll wait until the afternoon."
"I didn't ask you to take a picture; I brought you breakfast."
Impressed.
Yang Feiqi regretted telling Zhang Pupu that the number after his nickname in the owners' group was his apartment number.
But he could only quickly wash up and get dressed before going to open the door for Zhang Pupu.
"Did I disturb your sleep?" Zhang Pupu asked, blinking her eyes.
"Yes. But let it go this time, but there can't be a next time," Yang Feiqi said very seriously.
Having someone constantly thinking about him is definitely a burden for him, regardless of whether that concern is out of care or a desire to harm him.
"Okay, I got it. I'll write it down." Zhang Pupu opened her phone's notes app and started typing.
"Are you making a game walkthrough?" Yang Feiqi said, somewhat speechless.
After welcoming Zhang Pupu in, he asked curiously, "But how did you know what time I got up and prepare breakfast for me?"
"Hey, back in school, you used to bring me breakfast at this time."
Uh.
Yang Feiqi was speechless.
Zhang Pupu bought a lot of breakfast; it didn't look like enough for two people to finish.
So Yang Feiqi called Xu Jian and asked him to come over for breakfast.
After Xu Jian arrived, Yang Feiqi asked, "Are you and Bai Mao going to do some map work today?"
"Bai Mao took a job today, so it's just me," Xu Jian said. "I was originally planning to run a regular dam tonight."
Without a reliable teammate like Bai Mao, Xu Jian only dared to run the Zero Dam on normal difficulty.
Under normal circumstances, evacuation from Dam Zero, which is of average difficulty, is relatively easy.
Because many of the tomb raiders on the map are part-time tomb raiders, they don't have a strong desire to kill; their goal is to make a smooth retreat.
So unless you happen to bump into someone else, everyone will leave on their own.
"Let's go together then." Yang Feiqi wanted to see just how incredible Zhang Pupu's drop rate was, so he pulled Xu Jian and the other two together to queue up for the game.
After breakfast, the three chatted until about 3 p.m. before taking a taxi to Flying Tiger Company.
Lu Qianqian received the news the moment Yang Feiqi stepped through the gates of Flying Tiger Company.
So before Yang Feiqi even lay down in the special operations cabin, Lu Qianqian came looking for him.
Lu Qianqian learned that the three of them were planning to enter the map together, so she said, "You are a member of our company, but the other two are not. Generally speaking, it is not allowed for non-members and members to team up to enter a map in the industry."
"Why is that?" Yang Feiqi asked curiously.
"Because members only need to sell golden collectibles to enter the map, but for non-members, the company takes 50% of the revenue."
Lu Qianqian didn't continue, but Yang Feiqi understood.
If mixed collections are allowed, then non-members can avoid having their share of the company's commission when giving high-value collectibles to members.
"However, I have a small task for you. If you can help me out, I can arrange for them to become members of Flying Tiger Company as well." Before Yang Feiqi could speak, Lu Qianqian offered a method to allow the three of them to enter the map together.
"What kind of mission?" Yang Feiqi thought it was some kind of difficult mission.
"It's a task that the company's Special Operations Center needs to complete for an upgrade. The task itself is quite simple: bring 25 bottles of Refreshing Lemon Tea into the Longbow Valley map on normal difficulty, and then transport the Refreshing Lemon Tea to the evacuation point for evacuation," Lu Qianqian said.
It really is a very simple task.
The Refreshing Lemon Tea is a purple item, priced at around 15,000 Haf coins, so even 25 Refreshing Lemon Teas aren't worth much.
This kind of task can be done by Flying Tiger Company's own employees; there's absolutely no need to outsource it. This is purely Lu Qianqian giving him a perk.
As Yang Feiqi had predicted, Lu Qianqian planned to start by getting close to Yang Feiqi's social circle in order to win him over.
If we recruit Xu Jian, Zhang Pupu, and others into Flying Tiger Company in the future, won't we be able to keep Yang Feiqi from joining?
"Thank you very much, Ms. Qianqian."
"A fool wouldn't take advantage of a good deal." Yang Feiqi immediately accepted this task, which was practically a freebie.
After lying down in the special operations cabin with Xu Jian and Zhang Pupu, Yang Feiqi and the other two entered the special operations center.
"Although we accepted the mission, it doesn't include combat preparations, so we have to buy our own equipment."
Yang Feiqi glanced at Xu Jian and Zhang Pupu and asked them what weapons they were good at.
"I prefer the ASH-12 combat rifle," Xu Jian said.
The ASH-12 combat rifle is a relatively unpopular weapon. Aside from its muzzle velocity, all other attributes are top-tier.
However, its muzzle velocity is too slow, only 340 meters per second, ranking among the lowest of all firearms.
Other firearms with slow muzzle velocities either have a high rate of fire or are shotguns, primarily designed for close-range combat.
It's a rifle with an advantageous range of 55 meters, yet its muzzle velocity is so low.
This results in a particularly severe penalty for missing shots with this gun. In actual combat, if the aim is inaccurate and the first few bullets miss, death is practically guaranteed.
Unexpectedly, Xu Jian actually liked this gun.
However, considering that the Longbow Valley map is mainly for mid-to-long-range combat, using the ASH-12 is not a bad idea.
When it comes to guns, you have to hit someone before you can talk about damage. So you should definitely prioritize choosing the gun you're most comfortable with.
"Then use the Ash-12. Remember, the modification cost shouldn't exceed 300,000," Yang Feiqi instructed.
This ordinary trip to Chang Gong Valley, although I accepted Lu Qianqian's mission, was so simple that Lu Qianqian didn't provide any combat supplies, and I even had to pay for the mission item, the refreshing lemon tea.
But compared to the reward for the mission, this is nothing.
Becoming a member of Flying Tiger Company exempts you from the high 50% commission rate, which can save you a lot of money over the years.
"Should I choose four heads and four armors?" Xu Jian asked.
"Let's choose a level 4 durability helmet and a level 3 archer's vest for armor," Yang Feiqi suggested.
A level 4 durability helmet is a lifesaver on normal longbow maps, because the highest level of ammunition available on normal maps is only level 3 bullets.
This means that when using level 3 ammunition, all sniper rifles not only fail to kill other tomb raiders with a single headshot, but also leave the target with their health remaining intact after being headshot.
The reason for recommending a level 4 helmet but not level 4 armor is that level 4 helmets are recommended.
The main reason is that Xu Jian and Zhang Pupu are both newcomers and don't have much HAF Coin deposit.
If you use the MK-2 tactical vest, a level 4 armor worth 200,000, it's very likely that after a fight, the amount of HAF coins lost from repairing the armor will not be as much as the HAF coins earned.
The tactical vest for shooters, priced at 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, not only provides abdominal protection but is also inexpensive to repair.
