Chapter 1169: Chapter 1066: Flag of Salvation!

(Two in One)_2 Chapter 1169: Chapter 1066: Flag of Salvation!

(Two in One)_2 Camille Victoria watched the crowd gathering around, hesitated a bit, then opened her panel and made a few adjustments to change her avatar.

Going forward, Shuihua would join the crowd in search of the surviving forests and water sources.

Dressed elegantly as she was, it was not suitable for her to traverse the scorched earth covered in ashes.

While she was waiting for the crowd to gather, Shuihua didn’t stop.

She created a discussion group on Yunmeng Community and invited all players interested in saving Pandora to join, share information, and exchange ideas.

She didn’t think too much about the name of the discussion group, casually entering “Pandora Fire Department”.

However, the players who flooded in soon expressed strong dissatisfaction with this name.

Shuihua was easygoing, so she encouraged everyone to suggest names they liked, and when the group’s population exceeded one million, they conducted a vote.

[Pandora Fire Department]

[King of Tree Planting]

[Goddess’s Guardians]

[Saviors of Pandora]

…

And so on.

There were all sorts of names.

But in the end, the name that received the most votes was a name dripping with youthful exuberance –

[Flag of Savior]!

As Shuihua and a vast number of players set out on their expedition, the players in the discussion group who even had to work on Saturday and couldn’t play the game but still wanted to feel included started designing the logos, emblems, flags, T-shirts of [Flag of Savior]…

and even began creating mission statements, missions, and outrageous recruiting posts.

More detailed organizational planning and task distribution were also taking place.

——When there’s an overabundance of manpower, odd things like these often happen…

“I’m going to accompany Shuihua on Pandora for a while, I’ll join you guys later.

I’ll make sure to go cheer on Xiaomeng before her dance!”

Lincoln read the message sent by Little Princess, and replied with, “Alright, have fun.”

Then he logged into the Space Dance Hall with Xiaomeng.

Instead of heading directly to the competition venue, they randomly entered a public mirror to check out player feedback.

As they expected, the place was already packed to the brim.

There was something strange about this—having at least hundreds of thousands of people gathered in the Dance Hall early in the morning, drinking, dancing, goofing off…

This was clearly not a harmonious and healthy environment.

It was the same Space Dance Hall, but things were markedly different from before.

When the Yunmeng internal staff was testing and enjoying themselves here, everyone played by the rules, they’d dance and chat, goof around in the dance floor and that’s about it.

However, as soon as hundreds of players ran in, the atmosphere instantly changed.

People were shouting, performing skills, showing off their alcohol tolerance, stacking champagne towers, playing ‘bumper cars’ in the low gravity dance floor…

Chaos was the only word for it.

The robot bartenders and waiters were working nonstop.

“The players are as spirited as ever.”

Lincoln was not surprised by this.

The Space Dance Hall had just opened, and players were still finding the novelty exciting, so it made sense for them to be a bit more active.

It was just like when new areas were opened up in Metropolis and Night City—the places would always be overcrowded.

But soon, Lincoln became less casual—he saw a few people trying to smash the doors with metal chairs!

——The Space Dance Hall was completely closed and there was no way out, it wasn’t time to open the outside areas yet.

Getting closer, Lincoln felt a headache come on: “Yi, what are you guys doing!?”

Yi turned his head upon hearing Lincoln’s voice, when he saw Lincoln and Xiaomeng, he instinctively backed off three steps.

“What are you doing?” Lincoln didn’t understand his reaction.

Yi instantly conceded, “I didn’t mess with your corpse!

I didn’t slap the NPC you played either, somebody else did that!”

“Huh??” Lincoln was dumbstruck, “Are you confessing to me?”

“Of course not!” Yi denied loudly, “I didn’t do it, so why would I confess!”

“I have a report to make!” one of Yi’s friends, who was smashing the door with him, raised his hand to speak.

But before Lincoln could respond, Yi lunged and tackled him to the ground, forcefully covering his mouth.

“He didn’t participate, but he…Ah!” Another friend tried to speak out, but Yi grabbed his ankle and pulled him down.

His friend’s head hit the metal door with a loud noise.

Lincoln slumped, “Let’s put that aside for now.

Can you tell me why you are trying to break the door?”

“Oh, we wanted to see if we could leave this place and see what the environment outside is like.” Yi replied while lying on top of his friends, “Can Boss Lin tell us where this Dance Hall is located?

Even though there are many dance halls in Night City, I’ve never seen one with a robot bartender.”

Lincoln looked at the dents on the metal door, shook his head, and didn’t answer the question.

“You guys keep trying.”

Then he left with Xiaomeng to go to the [Space Dance Contest] organized by Star Mirror Streaming.

The friends of Yi then hesitated, “Should we continue trying to break it?”

“I suspect we won’t be able to break it.”

“How could it not?

It must be possible!

I’ve seen through the ways of Yunmeng!

There’s nothing that can’t be broken, as long as there’s will and tools, even a mountain could be dug through!” Yi’s determination didn’t waver.

“But we don’t have tools.

We can’t even get the achievement axe, and the weapon storage box is locked.”

Yi glanced at the metal chair that had already been bent out of shape, then looked around the Dance Hall.

Soon, he had an idea, “The bartender is made of metal!

Use the bartender’s head to smash it!”
