Rebirth: Divine Machine-Making Master - Chapter 30
Chapter 30: This Is the Stowaway City
However, Elrond also knew how difficult this A-class quest was.
It was almost impossible to complete this quest.
New Life Organization was still relatively weak during this timeline.
However, this place was a gaming world.
New Life Organization was the cause for the chaos in this world.
It played the role of an antagonist.
As time went by, it would turn stronger.
Based on Elrond’s ability, how was he supposed to cause damage to such a powerful organization?
Moreover, he was required to cause 10% of damages before the basic criterion of the quest was met.
It was practically impossible to complete the quest perfectly. To do so, Elrond had to destroy New Life Organization completely.
Elrond was a person who knew the truth about this world.
Many players from the real world would eventually transmit their consciousness to this world.
As a result, many people with extraordinary abilities, great strength, or extreme intelligence appeared.
These players were omniscient narrators, and many of them knew the storyline.
The reason was that they had played many rounds of the game.
Based on Elrond’s knowledge of the current timeline, the game had not totally started yet.
He still had some time left. But as time passes, a lot of players would be projected into this world.
By then, it wouldn’t be fun anymore.
His only competitive advantage was, he had arrived at this world before those powerful players. The players who knew about the plot had yet to descend on this world.
The projected camps that these players would join were split between the six major countries and New Life Organization.
The reason behind New Life Organization’s strength was because many players joined them secretly.
The only thing that Elrond could do was to join New Life Organization’s opposing forces and seek out new opportunities.
The opposing forces that went against New Life Organization were the six major countries.
They were Wisdernia, Bentonia, Yadonia, Azurnia, Grenlandia, and Vajra.
Wisdernia was a place on Earth where Americans and Europeans of the white race resided before the war broke out.
Bentonia was where the black races gathered. This was the most chaotic country among all the other countries. Most of the dark-skinned citizens, refugees, and nomad tribes settled down in this country.
As for Yadonia, it used to be a multi-ethnic country in the North with ongoing battles within the nation.
Azurnia was a country where yellow races within the Asia continent gathered.
Grenlandia used to be Great Britain. Relying on its strength, it moved the wheel of human history and ended the 2,000 years of the feudal dynasty.
Vajra was a nation with great achievements in the industrial and machinery sector. Actually, Elrond wanted to go to this country.
However, he thought about it and felt that it was unrealistic.
New Life Organization already knew that he was familiar with the principles of mechanics. So Vajra was a place that he should want and possibly go to.
“Hmph— I’ll do the exact opposite,” Elrond muttered as an idea formed in his mind.
However, the most important thing right now was to avoid the sandstorm.
Most importantly, he could not lose his means of transport. Even though his body was strengthened, it would be difficult for him to walk out of this vast desert with his legs.
Thinking of this, he walked to a boulder.
Elrond did not use the mechanical arm because that meant wasting the energy sources.
There was nowhere to replenish the energy sources right now or in the near future. So it was better to save whenever possible.
Taking out the Golden Revolver, he shot the boulder’s smooth surface. “Thud thud thud—”
A hundred over shots were fired consecutively.
The revolver had a range of 1,000 yards, so it was relatively easy to pierce through the boulder.
The surface of the boulder was filled with holes.
Next, Elrond used his mechanical arm to carve out a big hole.
It was just enough to accommodate the motorcycle and him.
But this was far from enough. If Elrond used his body to block the opening, he would be dead for sure.
He took out the Supreme Gaming Cabin and blocked the entrance. Then, he laid in the gaming cabin and went to sleep.
In this way, he could level up and safely overcome the calamity.
The Supreme Gaming Cabin could increase his level, physical strength, speed, and other attributes.
In the past six months, there were very few opportunities to use this thing.
This item was a magical artifact for upgrading one’s stats.
Elrond hid inside the cabin just moments before the storm arrived.
The only bad thing about the Supreme Gaming Cabin was, he could not hear the sounds outside.
Neither could he feel the flow of time.
He had to rely on his subconscious to make a judgment.
Not knowing how long had passed, Elrond attempted to open the cabin door.
He could not hear the storm anymore.
After observing for a while longer, he found that everything was fine.
He opened the hatch, pushed and cleared the sand, and walked out.
He took out the motorcycle.
The sky outside was clear, but— it was extremely hot.
It felt like it was 50 degrees Celcius.
One would be able to cook eggs on an iron sheet with this heat.
He took some water and a piece of wolf jerky. Then he started to chew on it.
Riding his motorcycle, Elrond rode for another three days before he arrived at a small city.
This was the first time he realized that he had truly come to a city.
The name of this small city was very strange. It was called Wypolis.
This small city did not belong to the six major countries or any other forces.
The reason for its existence was its terrible geographical location.
The back faced the sea while the front was the endless desert.
The weather and environment were terrible. There were frequent tsunamis and sandstorms.
It was a miracle that it had survived until now.
But a city like this gave hope to many people who desired freedom.
Therefore, the people here came up with many ways to prevent the city from being damaged.
This was a piece of pure land.
Many nomads took the initiative to live here and helped to maintain the order of the city.
Elrond replenished his supplies in the city.
He knew that this small city was the key in determining if he could sneak into the six major countries.
At the same time, he recollected his memories of this place.
“So, this is the Stowaway City.”
Wypolis was a city for fugitives and illegal immigrants.
All kinds of people hid in this city.
Elrond remembered that this place was full of fugitives who had killed too many people. These fugitives were under international arrest either by the New Life Organization or the six major countries.
One was able to find a fixed hidden character here. Using money and barter trade, one would be able to leave the enemy’s territory.
Moreover, the person in charge of this small city was not simple.
At least on the surface, there was a reason for the six major countries and New Life Organization to leave it untouched.
