Offline Rescue, Riddle Analysis
"Stop talking nonsense and turn it around!" the skinny guy yelled, brandishing a kitchen knife.
He was invincible in the game before, but now he's being threatened with a knife by two thugs in real life.
This made Zhang Mingzhen very angry, but he was helpless for the time being.
He suddenly realized he wasn't the main character, because he found himself chickening out.
Faced with the gleaming cleaver, he quickly said, "Don't hurt me! I'll transfer the money to you right now. My phone is right next to me, give it to me."
The skinny guy then gestured for the fat guy to bring him the phone.
Then, Zhang Mingzhen unlocked his phone, logged into the payment app, and started transferring money to them.
There are, of course, a limit.
There is no limit unless you are a VIP customer of the bank.
The skinny man quickly noticed Zhang Mingzhen's bank balance: 3 million!
Actually, it's over 100 million, but of course, all of it has been deposited into fixed-term deposits.
This money is intended for temporary emergency use.
For example, going to the hospital.
As a result, he could only transfer 50,000 yuan per day.
"Damn it, only 50,000!" the skinny man exclaimed angrily.
"I'll go to the ATM now!" he couldn't help but say.
"Brother, no, that won't work. The limit restricts outward transfers. After transferring 50,000, you can't withdraw any more unless you do it at the counter."
"Yes, large transfers can only be made at the counter," Zhang Mingzhen quickly added.
"Damn it, this won't do, you're coming with us!" The skinny guy had lost his mind when he saw the figure of 3 million.
He decided to kidnap the other party.
"No way, boss, if we kidnap him, we can only do it via the stairs, and there are security cameras on the stairs!" the fat man advised.
"Damn it, are we just going to give up on such a big fat sheep like this?" the skinny man said fiercely.
"Let's go, 50,000 is pretty good!" The fat man still wanted to settle things quickly, mainly because he was thinking of going to the God's Domain Game to farm gold, which was both safe and fun.
Isn't this better than doing this job?
"No, I can't give up like this!" The skinny man, knife in hand, started thinking about what to do.
Suddenly, he had an idea.
This inspiration came from news I saw online.
"Place an order for gold right now, a lot of gold, and I won't be leaving today."
"I remember there were no restrictions on buying gold!"
"Also, adjust the bank's credit limit!" the skinny man said fiercely.
He completely ignored the risks when it came to money.
Actually, the fat man couldn't take it anymore and wanted to give up.
He felt this was too dangerous.
And with only 3 million, you can't even buy a decent house.
If it means achieving financial freedom, then I'm willing to risk getting arrested.
Why take such a risk when you can't achieve financial freedom now?
Zhang Mingzhen had no choice but to follow the skinny man's advice and began applying to adjust her bank transfer limit. She also tried buying gold and having it delivered to her door.
The two thieves then actually moved into his house.
One person tied him up and gagged him with a towel, while the other person drew the curtains.
Gao Linzhi watched this scene from afar, and he couldn't help but find it amusing.
I guess I wasn't sneaky enough after all.
In the novel, the protagonist is protected by the author, and many unexpected events will not happen.
In reality, however, things are full of surprises.
You work hard to become a billionaire, only to lose your life in an accident.
This may seem like a very rare occurrence, but if it happens to you, it's a 100% certainty.
In fact, what happened to Zhang Mingzhen today could have been completely avoided.
For example, buying a villa or moving into a high-end residential community with tight security.
These two thieves couldn't possibly get in. The security guards patrol and monitor 24 hours a day; there's no way they'd have a chance to climb up the building.
After all, he has hundreds of millions in savings.
But this person was terrified of poverty and dared not spend a single penny recklessly, so he only bought a house in an ordinary neighborhood.
As a result, this vulnerability was discovered.
Or, like myself, I could find a place, dig a hole, and hide inside.
Time passed second by second.
The online siege is still ongoing.
Chongxing, who was the main force, suddenly went offline.
Many people were immediately stunned.
"What happened? Why did the Chongxing- Cheater suddenly disappear?"
"Was he killed by a monster?"
"No, I think he suddenly logged off at the town gate."
Why is that?
"The second wave is supposed to come in a few minutes!"
Does anyone have his phone number?
At this time, in the offline group, many people were frantically tagging Zhang Mingzhen.
Of course, there are many powerful people.
This is not an ordinary online game, after all.
Someone quickly found his registered mobile phone number through his Bubble ID and then called him.
Then, Zhang Mingzhen's cell phone vibrated in his home.
The fat man wasn't stupid; he immediately switched Zhang Mingzhen's phone to vibrate.
"Someone is calling me in the game..." Zhang Mingzhen said subconsciously.
At this moment, the skinny man forced Zhang Mingzhen with his fingerprint. The next moment, he was shocked to see:
"Chongxing, you just helped the War Alliance members kill a lot of monsters, right? We'd like to make a deal with you so we can kill monsters like him."
"Chongxing, are you there? 3 million for a single assistance."
"The second wave is coming soon, why did you log off?"
The skinny guy frowned slightly, then sneered, "Heh, looks like you're pretty good at the game, huh?"
"Wow, 3 million per time? That's terrifying!" the fat man exclaimed.
"What's so scary?" the skinny man asked, still confused.
"I mean the money they give for helping you once. This is God's Domain Game! In-game currency is very limited; we can only be talking about real-world currency here!" the fat man exclaimed excitedly.
The way he looked at Zhang Mingzhen was as if he had seen a treasure trove!
"What? So many?" The skinny guy thought these were just ordinary game coins.
People are envious of 3 million in cash, but nobody cares about 3 million Happy Beans.
That's about all there is.
"If that's the case, then all we have to do is play the game and force this player to transfer their equipment to us, and we'll make a fortune!" The skinny man was overjoyed.
Just then, my phone vibrated again with a message.
"Hurry up and give them a reply." The skinny man wanted to reply himself, but he was afraid of giving himself away, so he forced Zhang Mingzhen to reply.
Zhang Mingzhen was secretly delighted.
He pretended to still look angry and started typing on his phone.
"He joined that mission on his own initiative."
"I have made it clear that I will not concern myself with his safety, his life or death is none of my business, and I will not save his life."
"Something just happened at home."
Let's improve together.
"I hope we can kill more monsters, and bring more rogues along."
"As for the deal you two mentioned, I don't need the money right now."
"If you wish to follow, please do so. I will not provide any medical support. As long as you do not interfere with my clearing of monsters, you are free to act as you see fit."
This is naturally voice typing.
The skinny person and the fat person didn't notice.
However, some of the people on the other side noticed it.
After all, this game brings together talents from all walks of life!
The external relations staff of the Dragon Diagram Guild is a master of word puzzles.
"Help! A thief has broken into the house!" He immediately saw the problem and, connecting it to the fact that Chongxing suddenly disappeared during the tense fight, confirmed the truth.
"Damn, no wonder the big Chongxing suddenly disconnected just now."
"Send someone over there immediately!"
Those with the skills immediately began locating the phone number and reported it to the local police.
Just ten minutes later.
Zhang Mingzhen was rescued; the police response time was definitely fast enough.
The process was not smooth.
Enraged, the skinny man grabbed a kitchen knife and, in full view of everyone, slashed at the man's neck.
Caught off guard, he was stabbed directly, but the cleaver struck his neck with a clanging sound like metal striking metal!
It should be a collision as tough as old cowhide.
The kitchen knife at home hasn't been used in a long time and is no longer sharp.
Then the security guard opened fire, and the skinny man was hit five times and fell down.
The fat man immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Security personnel then cleaned up the scene.
Zhang Mingzhen was sent to a nearby hospital for treatment and resettlement.
"Put on my helmet, I'm going to keep playing..."
The security guard had nothing to say.
But they also realized how powerful this game was.
If nothing unexpected happens, the fact that the opponent's skin is so tough must be due to the game.
A quick check revealed that he was not injured, so the security guards and doctors left him alone.
However, this means that Zhang Mingzhen's attempt to secretly and discreetly show off will no longer be possible.
He also realized the advantages of having a powerful force.
If he were in a powerful organization, something like this would never happen.
Of course, what might arrive are highly skilled professional killers, assassins, or undercover agents...
But in any case, this crisis is now over.
"I'm so stupid, if I had known my skin was so tough, wouldn't I have turned the tables on you long ago?" Zhang Mingzhen.
That way, you won't owe such a huge favor.
He then logged back in, quickly putting the incident behind him.
Of course, moving was inevitable.
He plans to sell his old home and move to a safe and stable neighborhood.
In the game.
After learning that Chongxing had not specifically led anyone from the War Alliance, the others were relieved.
Besides, they had just done Zhang Mingzhen such a big favor, so naturally the other party wouldn't refuse to let them get some benefits.
The moment the countdown reached zero, the second monster invasion officially began.
Zhang Mingzhen seemed unaffected by the offline situation. He took the lead in guarding the front line, and the dark horde of beasts swept in again.
Countless flying monsters, resembling both birds and lizards, circled above the herd, their wings obscuring the sky.
"All archers and mages, heed my command!"
"Prioritize engaging aerial targets, and use concentrated firepower from professionals with sufficient range to suppress them. We must not allow them to approach the city gate!"
Longtu Tengchong immediately detected the aerial threat and loudly issued orders.
"Big Head! You guys went too far, the healing can't keep up!"
"Qingtian Wawa" casts a healing spell while chasing after her teammates in the front row.
"Qingtian, let's use the Dragon Claw to tear those guys down from the sky!"
"Datou Datou!" he shouted, estimating the distance to the flying monster.
As Shield Guard, they gain Powerful control skill— Dragon Claw Technique —after reaching level ten.
"Release dragon-shaped energy to seize the designated target and forcibly pull them in front of you. The area of effect is 15x15, and the cooldown time is 30 seconds."
While fending off the ground impact, the frontline Shield Guard seized the opportunity to unleash their dragon claws into the air, pulling down monsters for the team to focus fire and eliminate.
Seeing that the rhythm of the battlefield was gradually stabilizing, Dragon Totem Flying turned his gaze to the depths of the battle formation.
The monsters there perished at an astonishing speed, as if wiped out by an invisible hand.
In the surging black tide, wherever that figure passed, a blank space was left behind.
It really is Cheater.
Dragon Diagram Frenzy and the others were following the movement trajectory of "Chongxing".
With that figure by your side, there's no need to worry about your health; just focus on dodging and blocking.
Once the opponent is far away, you need to pay attention to your health bar and replenish with high-level potions in time.
In preparation for this battle, he had purchased a large quantity of Rare Tier medicines in Shuangyue Town, which were now proving useful.
Seeing the guild leader's health fluctuate in the team list, yet he remained active among the beasts, "Dragon Totem Flying" felt somewhat reassured.
"Just by receiving a little bit of the benefits Chongxing the Cheater and some group healing, our survival pressure has been reduced so much..."
"Fortunately, this time, we established a solid offline emotional bond."
"There will be a lot of room for cooperation in the future."
A similar scene unfolded when Zhang Mingzhen passed through the War Alliance and the Century Imperial City defense zone.
The leaders of both guilds are Shield Guard, making them more survivable.
Seeing the top three on the leaderboard falling further and further behind these three, the other forces finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"Commander, let's move over there too!"
Seeing members of other guilds trying to move towards Chongxing's area to benefit from his group healing, the players of "Dawn Legion" were also eager to try.
"Remember our duty! Venturing deep into the beast horde is extremely risky; death will slow down our defense of the city."
"We must build a defensive line to keep the main force of monsters outside the city!"
While capturing the flying beast, Qin Xiao Youhui directed his team to reinforce the defensive perimeter.
As the official guild appointed by the nation in the God's Domain, our primary mission, as assigned by our superiors, is to ensure the success of the event; personal level is secondary.
Those players who tried to break into the beast horde soon learned their lesson.
Surrounded by monsters, I realized the difficulty far exceeded my expectations.
Without team cover, it's virtually impossible to get close to where "Chongxing" Cheater.
They could only watch helplessly as experts like "Imperial Dynasty Defies Heaven" easily reaped points following that figure, secretly filled with regret.
Another hour passed.
The second wave of attacks has ended, and Chongxing remains Chongxing first place on the leaderboard with an unparalleled lead.
Following closely behind were the presidents of the various associations.
The group began to be optimistic about the upcoming third wave of Warcraft attacks.
The first two waves of attacks have greatly increased the strength of many adventurers.
By the end of the third wave, the average level of the entire battlefront is expected to increase by two or three levels or more.
Zhang Mingzhen also made progress in battle. After reaching level 23, he chose to temporarily save his skill points, preparing to imbue them with newly awakened abilities.
If things continue at the current pace, he should be able to reach level 25 by the time the third wave of Warcraft is wiped out, at which point he will undoubtedly master even more powerful combat skills.
The period of rest passed quickly, and the third wave began.
Outside the four gates of Shuangyue Town, the figures of Silver Tier boss monsters began to appear.
Gao Linzhi glanced at it and couldn't help but smile.
This is just the beginning.
Their current defenses can withstand a kitchen knife, but then comes bullets, artillery shells, and even nuclear bombs.
At that time, the structure of Earth will be the same as that of the Blue Star.
We will all enter a new era.
