But it’s actually just like that, the influence is always limited to Central America.

Once you leave Mexico, you’ll get absolutely crushed by the likes of the South American Seven Sea Pirates.

"Let me show you how tempting Xiong Da in semi-transparent lace can be."

???

Li Cheng clicked open the message, wondering who sent it, and then saw a picture of Xiong Da from the animated series "Panda Bear."

Holy moly, it really is Xiong Da, not "Xióng dà"!?

Li Cheng’s eye twitched, looked at the source, and saw it was from "AAA Firearms Wholesale Sister Wang", so he figured it was a spam advertisement sent en masse by those unscrupulous micro-merchants.

Players can add friends through a unique code or previous game features. In theory, it’s confidential.

But some shady players sell other players’ friend request codes on the black market, leading to a flood of spam messages.

"Ten packs of Hesheng Tianxia for a hundred bucks, five packs of Flavor King Classic Coffee, five packs of Wuzi Zui Goji Berry series. Plus twenty sticks of Rick V. Please deliver to the Southeast District Star-casting Anvil."

Li Cheng paused for a moment when he saw the source ID, a string of irregular gibberish, and tentatively typed: "Gray Rain?"

He previously bought Gray Rain a friend communication business, which works like a snail phone, even regular people can use it to

send messages to players.

"..."

The other end of the communication was silent for quite a long time before responding, "Gray what? Rain what? Haven’t heard of it. I’m just an ordinary customer at the Star-casting Anvil commissioning a forging business, ordering delivery while waiting in line."

"If you’re an ordinary customer, then what’s your player title, your level, which guild you’re from, and what equipment are you commissioning at the Star-casting Anvil?"

The communication interface was silent for an even longer time, "My player title is ’Dried Coffee Stain’, Level 9, from the newly established ’Sweating Profusely’ guild, and I’m here to commission equipment that can drastically lower the surrounding temperature."

"..."

Li Cheng took a deep breath, "Two possibilities: first, you are ’Dried Coffee Stain.’

Second, you are Gray Rain, using the player communication function and accidentally sending me the wrong message while ordering betel nut delivery,

then realizing it and nervously sitting upright in the boss chair, looking at the ’Dried Coffee Stain’ on the desk, internally screaming ’Help’, sweating profusely, instinctively turning on the air conditioner for cool air,

then cobbling together a story from these elements to fool me, trying to get by."

In the captain’s cabin of the sailing ship, it was so silent you could hear a pin drop,

and then a new message arrived, "Let me show you how tempting Xiong Da in semi-transparent lace can be!"

?? You’re copying spam messages, huh?

If it weren’t for the fact there’s no network signal here, I’d suspect you have surveillance cameras installed around me.

Li Cheng almost spat out his salt soda, "Half a day out and you’re ordering betel nut delivery, seems like you’re looking to fly."

"Gray Rain doesn’t know! It has nothing to do with Gray Rain!"

The other end hastily hung up the communication,

Li Cheng rubbed his eyebrows in frustration, buying so much betel nut, this guy really isn’t afraid of oral fibrosis, huh.

Wait a second, really seems not afraid!

The lethal dose of betel nut that can cause ordinary people oral fibrosis, faces turning into "Wagyu cubes", is no different than a pack of spicy strips to extraordinary creatures...

Even so, it’s not okay!

In the Extraordinary World, no matter how strong your physical constitution, there’s always compounds that target it.

First year it’s e-cigarettes, second year betel nut, third year they go to the Great Sea Route searching for one piece big fruit, by the fourth year they’re going to the Land of Light to try licking a Plasma Spark Tower.

"When you get back, even the e-cigarettes are going to be confiscated."

Li Cheng muttered to himself, closing the ship’s positioning and calling system, setting the alarm, and started to rest with eyes closed.

The sailboat speed was incredibly fast, even at the virtualized traversal speed through solid rock layers, it was no less than a propeller-driven aircraft.

And when reaching open areas, like plains stretching for thousands of miles, Li Cheng would store the sailboat back into the Three-dimensional Warehouse, traveling himself using the Light Speed Elbow Strike,

then take out the sailboat upon encountering terrain barriers.

Occasionally encountering some large native beasts on the killing field during his travel, they would glance at the sailboat from a distance and then lose interest—this thing flies fast, but doesn’t have the scent of food.

Thus moving stop-and-go, using the Teleportation Phone Booth many times during the journey, finally arriving at the destination by dawn the next day.

"Should be here, right?"

Li Cheng took out a 3D map and glanced, the coordinates used by human players start from the slum, divided into eight quadrants.

And the map given by the God of Mankind uses some ancient, unchanged killing field structures, as well as Teleportation Phone Booths as coordinates.

Li Cheng compared the two maps for a while before confirming he wasn’t mistaken.

This is a barren desert, a sand fortress quietly standing, formed by erosion from water and strong winds.

Thanks to the absence of sunlight heating, there are sparse mushrooms growing around the sand fortress, forming a small ecological circle based on mushrooms.

Li Cheng thought for a moment, took out a container with a quantum computer, and summoned the Great Swarm, "Move the container over there."

"As you command."

The Mechanical Swarm effortlessly picked up the container, with vector nozzles on their backs spewing faint flames, bringing the first fibers of light to this desert in thousands of years.

Native species with shapes similar to lizards and scorpions had visual degradation but extremely sensitive touch, sensing the air currents, they immediately burrowed back into the sand.

Thud.

The Mechanical Swarm landed steadily, following Li Cheng’s instructions, momentarily activated the thrusters, leveling the dune beneath their feet, exposing a large piece of black stone buried in the desert.
