    Chapter 443: 426: The Road-building yers<div>


    Trantor:549690339


    Once the costs of death and injury are ruled out, many extremely dangerous skills requiring lengthy and strict training be much easier to master quickly.


    Practicing wing suit flight in “Paradise” is an example of this.


    Here, failure is nothing more than dying, and the cost of death is zero.


    Well, not exactly zero.


    If you die here, your wing suit will automatically be damaged and need to be repurchased.<div>


    But most yers who have yed “Assassins’ Alliance” are not short of money, as robbing a bank in the game starts with a virtual currency yield of hundreds of thousands.


    A set of wing suits costs only 1,500, which is like a drop in the bucket.


    If need be, yers can sell dormant real estate to get more cash.


    After all, who doesn’t have several unused properties in the metropolis?


    If it was legal to rob a bank in reality, having several properties per household would not be a problem.


    Anyway, with a variety of factorsbined, yers’ expertise in wing suit flight improves rapidly.


    Many yers have made dozens of trips back and forth from death, and their skills have greatly improved.


    They may not be that proficient yet, but generally controlling their flight direction and ensuring that they fly to Dinosaur Ind, instead of straying off course or plunging into the ocean, is no longer as difficult as it was at the beginning.


    Therefore, when William arrived at the tform once again wearing a brand-new wing suit, he could see a dense formation of yers’ silhouettes in the sky above Dinosaur Ind from far away.


    At this small tform, they have to consider the game experience of yers, so when there are 30 to 40 people, they will start to divert and bnce dynamically.


    But once yers leave the tform and enter the sky, the mirrors will merge automatically, and yers from different small tforms will naturally converge in the sky above Dinosaur Ind.


    Although not all yers will be merged, the number of yers in the sky far exceeds that on the tform.<div>


    At the same time, the number of pterosaurs in the sky above Dinosaur Ind has also multiplied several times, intercepting and killing yers in the air like crazy.


    At this point, yers can only generally control their flight direction and cannot precisely control it, making it difficult to urately control theirnding point.


    Even if they are not killed by pterosaurs in the air, they will still fall to their death on the ind.


    A few lucky ones whond on the sea will die on impact with the water due to improper entry posture.


    For a while, yers continue to die in the sky, onnd, and in the sea around Dinosaur Ind, dissipating in a wisp of light.


    On the ind, Lincoln and Xiaomeng look up at the fireworks during the day, even feeling that it is somewhat picturesque.


    Lincoln felt that this beautiful scene was a bit wasted if only he and Xiaomeng could see it.


    So, without any moralpunction, he recorded a clip and posted it on Spiritual Rhinoceros.


    The post was noticed immediately by a massive number ofizens due to Lincoln’s poprity, who came to watch it right away.


    They then saw groups of pterosaurs soaring in the sky, asionally pping their wings to attack yers flying by in their wing suits, with red shes wherever they collided and then turning into white light.


    At first, people were amazed at the sight of so many pterosaurs – news of Dinosaur Ind was no longer fresh, but this was the first time they had seen such a close and unique perspective.


    After marveling at the swiftness and novelty of the pterosaurs, they became curious about the red and white light.<div>


    Not until thetter part of the video, when Lincoln kindly slowed the footage, did they see that those were yers in wing suits flying across the sky at high speed.


    “Dinosaur Ind Air Battle!”


    “My God, is it that fierce?”


    “Can’t they be equipped with some weapons? This is just too cruel! They’re just sending themselves off to die!”


    “Movie style! Are there any better angles? It seems full of entertainment value!”


    “I know a real wing suit master who also ys virtual games! I’m going to urge him to start live streaming!”


    Lincoln only nced at thements for a moment before closing the panel.


    He still has to work with Xiaomeng to expedite the construction of Jurassic Park.


    On the small tform, William has started another wing suit flight.


    The first attempt to enter the water failed when he crashed into a hidden coral reef near the shore, dying instantly.


    The second attempt also failed because of a very slight entry-angle problem, which led to him crashing on the water’s surface.


    Feeling fed up with the repeated running and dying, he went offline on the spot after his resurrection, going to find his wife.<div>


    He nned to invite his wife and friends online to help transport the wing suits.


    yers have already tried: only the clothes worn on the body can be brought into “Paradise.”


    So if they want to transport more wing suits at once, they will need the help of more people.


    And the wing suits transported must be watched over.


    Otherwise, they will definitely be used up by yers under someme excuse like “it’s a pity no one is using it, let’s put it to good use out of the kindness of our hearts,” leaving nothing for him to use.


    yers are not evil persons, but the average merit index in the game is definitely negative!


    As soon as William found his wife Miaomiao, she told him, “Your private messages on your social ount have exploded. Go check them out.”


    William opened it, and they were all urging him to start a live stream.


    Being one of the most famous extreme athletes in the country, he certainly has fame.


    However, as everyone knows, extreme sports are a very niche circle. Even though he is one of the most famous people in the field, his fame is far from great.


    In fact, his most famous achievements are not his international extreme sportspetition awards, but his live streams where he scaled buildings in Metropolis and Night City with his bare hands.


    It was only after entering the virtual world that he realized what real “poprity” meant.<div>


    But he didn’t particrly care about it, and he was indifferent to the live streaming tforms that came to sign him, never signing any contracts.


    Compared to wasting too much time on live streaming, he preferred to train in reality.


    However, William’s wife Miaomiao had a different opinion on this.


    In her view, every opportunity should be seized.


    Making more money not only guarantees their future but can also be directly turned into better sports equipment, more reliable support for their actions, and even a more sophisticated logistics team.


    And sometimes, these can even directly increase his survival rate when attempting some extreme challenges.


    As for live streaming time, all of this can be negotiated.


    William knew better and was very clear about how rare it is to meet such a supportive wife. So, in just one afternoon, he was sessfully convinced by his wife Miaomiao to start having some “self-operation” awareness.


    Lifting his head, he saw his wife’s eyes filled with both expectation and hesitation. He blinked and suddenly grinned, “Let’s live stream then!”


    As soon as he finished speaking, he posted an update and promoted the live streaming address.


    His wife Miaomiao immediatelyughed and gently pinched his face like caressing a dog, put on a headband, and logged into the virtual world with him.


    However, after starting the live stream, it was inevitable to be influenced by the audience.<div>


    Especially when you have a sense of “operation,” it’s impossible not to consider the effect of the live stream, whether it’s a more or fewer time.


    After William started the live stream, he decided to postpone the “entering the sea” operation, and instead prepared for a second exploration of Dinosaur Ind’s airspace to get as close as possible to the Pterosaur group and observe them up close.


    —Getting close to Pterosaurs from the air for thrills would obviously have a much better live streaming effect than swimming in the sea.


    He really wanted to try teasing a Pterosaur and then escaping from its ws.


    Unsurprisingly, this operation brought him unprecedented poprity. yers who came to see the excitement in a short time even caught up with many top anchors.


    It has to be said that death-defying stunts have always been the most eye-catching.


    Another advantage of starting the live stream: new yers constantly joined the group, willing to help transport the wing suits voluntarily.


    Compared to risking their own lives, they were more willing to support the boss in taking risks.


    It’s not to say that all yers can be brave enough to try wing suit flying just because they won’t die in the virtual world.


    Not at all!


    Despite the “airbat” over Dinosaur Ind being intense, these people actually represent a very small proportion of the total yer base.


    More yers, after watching the excitement and even trying a miserable fall once, decisively gave up this crazy behavior.


    They opted for a safer and rtively less thrilling method: going to the coast, building a boat, and rowing there.


    While this method may seem slow, it is much more stable, and with more and more people joining, the progress is constantly speeding up.


    Especially when someone left the staff behind and directlynded the hot air balloon, dragging the deted airbag to the small tform.


    Both the glider and parachute saw a major upgrade in materials and craftsmanship.


    Yi also temporarily left wing suit flying, regrouping with his friends to upgrade the glider and experience a close reconnaissance with the glider.


    As a result, as soon as they approached Dinosaur Ind, a Pterosaur chased them up from afar, tore their glider apart in the sky, and screamed as they fell.


    But before they could even fall into the forest, they were caught up by the Pterosaur, held by its two ws on their shoulders, brought up into the clouds again, and then let go!


    In terms ofnding on the ind, the progress was reduced to zero.


    But in terms of live streaming effect, it was definitely a mini-climax of the day.


    By the time the evening came, the yers who were off work and off school as usual also joined the army to attack Dinosaur Ind one after another.


    But they no longer had to figure out ways to get down from the cliff on their own.


    Shuihua rushed back home from school and ran straight to find Camille Victoria.


    When she arrived at the small tform on the cliff, she saw a very long and thick rope descent route that had been made by the pioneers all day using airbags, rope, climbing gear, and ant-like perseverance.


    There were thick rope knots for easy grasping, concave pits for stepping and levering, and safety buckles against fall for free use.


    As long as you muster up the courage and try it a couple of times, you can use this route to go all the way down to the coast.


    ording to the game’s mechanics, as long as people keep going down from here and maintain interaction, this route will continue to exist.


    The most amazing thing is, ording to Xiaomeng’s statistics, there were over 600,000 such rope descent routes in different sub-map.


    Altogether, over two million yers have contributed more or less to the construction of this route.


    In the evening, some new yerse here and, after figuring out how the rope descent route was born, their first thing to do is not to go down, but to continue to reinforce the route, trying to make it more convenient and safer.


    Lincoln watched this scene, feeling as if he was witnessing a virtual reality version of “Opening the Gate of Ahn’Qiraj.”
