Destiny Mission of game ‘Star Ring’

Chapter 56 - 56 56 Introduction

?56: Chapter 56 Introduction 56: Chapter 56 Introduction “I’ll take you to see the training grounds, floors 26-30 are various training areas.”

“Oh.”

Su Mo responded with some curiosity.

Soon, they arrived at floor 26, where the architecture was quite distinctive, featuring transparent, high-strength, hardened glass partitions that divided the space into separate training rooms.

Su Mo and Zhou Qian walked along the corridor, passing by.

They could clearly see each training room filled with elites.

Some were running on professional treadmills, some were lifting dumbbells, and others were practicing Sanda and boxing.

There were also people swinging knives, swords, and other cold weapons.

Even some training rooms had sparring rings set up, with many people gathered around, sparring and competing.

The atmosphere was very good, overall positive and energetic.

Of course, these trainings were quite standard, mainly focused on physical breakthroughs.

As they moved forward, Su Mo began to hear gunshots.

Inside the shooting range, young men and women were holding real guns, practicing their aim at specially set moving targets.

Seeing this, Su Mo was a bit surprised.

He remembered that Z country has very strict gun control regulations.

At that moment, Su Mo saw at the center of the shooting training venue, a group of girls surrounding a young man exuding masculinity.

The young man, shirtless, was holding a rifle with one hand.

“Single-handed shooting?”

Su Mo was also a bit curious, knowing the recoil of a rifle is quite strong.

It’s hard to hold it steady with both hands, often requiring adjustments to the shooting posture and bracing the rifle against the shoulder.

However, a shocking scene unfolded – the young man focused on the target, held the gun with one hand, arm stretched straight out, and pulled the trigger to fire!

Bang, bang~~

Quickly, a magazine of bullets was emptied.

The muzzle barely moved, showing how strong his arm must be.

The watching girls let out excited screams.

“Wang Lei, you’re so strong, so cool!!!”

…

“So strong, is everyone in our group this strong?”

Su Mo couldn’t help but praise.

He admitted that even he might not be able to be that steady.

“Cough cough, he’s not from our group.”

Zhou Qian replied somewhat awkwardly.

“Then who is he?”

“He’s an elite from Group One.

Our Tenth Legion is divided into twelve groups, with the ones ranked higher being stronger.

The first group is the Legion Leader’s Personal Guard.

The ranking of our group changes; the stronger we are, the higher we rank.”

“I remember we are in the twelfth group, doesn’t that mean…”

Su Mo suddenly realized.

“Cough cough, that was an accident, don’t fixate on that, I’ll take you to see the other training rooms.”

Zhou Qian quickly changed the subject, inadvertently misspeaking and implicating herself.

“What other training rooms are there?”

Su Mo grew more curious.

“There’s a lot, our facility is super well-equipped.

I remember you’re a tank driver, so I’ll take you to see that training room.”

Zhou Qian suddenly remembered Su Mo was assigned to a tank crew.

“There are tanks here?”

Su Mo’s eyes widened in disbelief, knowing such items were definitely prohibited.

“It’s a tank simulator training device.”

“Oh, I thought there were real ones.”

“You’re talking about real tanks?

Of course, we have them, it’s just that tanks are too heavy to be kept inside a building.

Our group has a live-fire target range in the suburbs, and there are a lot of them parked over there.

If you’re interested, you can apply to go there to drive them, no problem.”

Zhou Qian explained this to Su Mo very responsibly.

“…..”

Su Mo couldn’t say a word for a long while.

Seeing that Su Mo was silent, Zhou Qian thought she had scared him.

She patted his shoulder and said meaningfully, “You’ve just joined the guild, and it’s normal to be startled.

In time, you’ll understand just how strong our guild really is.”

It was then that Su Mo spoke up, “I’m a bit confused, isn’t this just a game?

Is it necessary to go to such lengths?”

Zhou Qian was stunned when she heard what Su Mo said and couldn’t speak for a long time either.

She seemed to have never really thought about this question, but she quickly regained her composure and said to Su Mo, “What’s so strange about doing it for money?

Don’t think too much about it.

We just need to do our job and collect our pay.”

“Oh.”

Su Mo didn’t ask any more questions.

Zhou Qian soon took Su Mo to the tank training room on the 27th floor, where several simulators were available.

“When you have free time, you can come here to practice.

Dual training, inside the game and outside, can make your skills improve by leaps and bounds.”

“Okay.”

Su Mo nodded.

“Alright, the tour is almost over, time to head back.”

“Aren’t there more training rooms above?”

Su Mo asked curiously.

“The floors above 28 are for the biochemical laboratories, material mixing rooms, and mecha simulation training rooms and such.

Those training rooms are generally not open to those from lower floors, you need to apply for access, but generally, you won’t need them.

As for the floors above thirty, those are for other groups, and you shouldn’t go up there unless necessary.

My group, Group Twelve, is located from the 21st to the 30th floor.”

Zhou Qian instructed Su Mo.

“Okay.”

Su Mo didn’t say much else.

Afterward, he and Zhou Qian returned to the 22nd floor, where Zhou Qian said, “We operate on a three-shift work system here.

The first shift is from eight in the morning to four in the afternoon, the second shift is from four to midnight, and the third shift is from midnight to eight in the morning.

Generally speaking, the first shift is the most comfortable, but for fairness, we rotate shifts.

You’re temporarily on the first shift, someone will notify you when it’s time to change shifts, but if you do well, you can choose whichever shift you prefer.”

“Okay.”

Su Mo wasn’t too concerned about it.

“Oh, you must have joined the guild’s group, right?”

“Yes.”

Su Mo nodded in response.

“Good, that’s good.

Since you’re new to the guild, if there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask your colleagues next to you.

If all else fails, just ask in the group.

As for which team you’ll join, Sister Zinuo will need to confirm that, just wait patiently for now…..”

While Su Mo and Zhou Qian were having their conversation, the building’s PA system suddenly broadcasted an announcement.

“We interrupt with an urgent message, Dawn City has been attacked by a horde of zombies moving south.

All combat-ready personnel, please immediately proceed to the game, get ready for a defensive battle.”

…

After hearing the broadcast, Zhou Qian immediately said to Su Mo,

“Enough talk, into the game!”

“Okay.”

Su Mo responded calmly.

It wasn’t surprising that Dawn City was under siege by the zombie wave.

After all, not long ago, he had escaped from a zombie wave himself, and by his calculations, it was about time for it to reach the city.

Su Mo quickly followed the others into the computer room, found a corner, and sat down at a terminal, then put on the helmet.

A virtual prompt popped up in his vision.

“Log into the game?”

“Yes!”

Su Mo’s consciousness shifted slightly.

After a burst of dazzling white light, Su Mo opened his eyes and found himself once more at the northern defense zone of Dawn City.

The entire defense zone was bustling, with numerous players rushing towards the front line.
