142: What 78 songs

Evacuation Successful!

Duration: 00:13:52

Earnings for this round: 1,539,902!

Returning to the Longjiang Impression City fountain.

Although Xiao Yun didn't earn much money this round, at least he managed to bring out a big red and a helicopter.

"I just don't know how much the helicopter will sell for?"

Xiao Yun thought to himself, intending to retrieve his phone to check the price.

However, as soon as he got his phone, he found several missed calls.

Looking at the caller ID, it was Wang Qiang.

"Hmm? Did they finish buying so quickly?"

Xiao Yun remembered that he had previously asked them to purchase materials for upgrading the family heirloom dagger.

By the time this round ended, it was already three in the afternoon.

Theoretically, the next step would be to enter the Baksh map again, which would not only complete the current system mission but also allow him to bring out another helicopter.

However, Wang Qiang's side would take a lot of time to purchase another batch of supplies, and Xiao Yun still didn't know what upgrade materials would be needed next.

Moreover, the secure container was already taking up a lot of space with the helicopter and the computer he had brought out earlier. If he didn't sell them, it would greatly affect his future runs.

It would be better to go back first, upgrade the family heirloom knife, and then have Wang Qiang and the others purchase another batch of supplies.

Otherwise, if he only upgraded five levels a day, he didn't know how long it would take for the knife to be fully upgraded.

There was still 15 million in his card. If this money wasn't used to improve his strength, wouldn't it just be a waste?

"Shihan, I plan to go back to Haibei City first."

Xiao Yun said.

"What's wrong? Is the Baksh map not profitable?"

Liu Shihhan naturally thought.

In the previous round, she hadn't done anything.

She hadn't searched for anything, and of course, she hadn't brought out any supplies.

Running a knife run was equivalent to running for nothing!

"But high-level maps like Baksh are like this. Those who arrive early search early, and those who arrive late can only try to search bodies. It's basically a fighting map; whoever can kill people and loot equipment can make money."

Liu Shihhan now also deeply understood the essence of the Baksh map, which was like a 'gu' cultivation ground.

It wasn't just Baksh; Aerospace was the same.

However, Aerospace was, after all, the top-tier map, so the situation should be a bit better than Baksh, and there wouldn't be as many people.

After all, this was a map only available to the top fifty cities, and it was said that most of them had rank restrictions, requiring operators above Diamond rank to enter.

"That's not the problem."

Xiao Yun said indifferently.

Just as he was wondering how to explain, Liu Shihhan's phone suddenly rang.

Hakimi Donana Merudo, Ashigaha Ya Gugunairu~~

...

Hearing the phone ring, Xiao Yun's face immediately darkened.

Why was this Hakimi music so popular even though there was no 78 in this world?

"Hello..."

Liu Shihhan answered the phone, and after listening for only two seconds, her face immediately showed surprise.

"Xiao Yun, the research team from the Haibei Academy of Sciences has arrived! We really do have to go back to Haibei City now."

"Mm."

...

Back in Haibei City.

On the way, Xiao Yun sent a message to Wang Qiang and the others, telling them to wait for him.

After meeting He Mo earlier, Xiao Yun was eager to go to Baksh for a run and had forgotten about the experts from the Haibei Academy of Sciences.

The Mercedes-Benz drove into a courtyard, surrounded by perfectly trimmed flowers and plants, which looked very pleasing to the eye.

And this spacious courtyard, like a botanical garden, was merely the backyard of the enormous building resembling a Western European palace not far away.

"What is this place? Is it some high-end hotel?"

Seeing this building, which was even more luxurious than the Diamond Queen Hotel in Longbow Creek Valley, Xiao Yun raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised.

This place was too luxurious!

Building this entire hotel must have cost tens of billions, right?

It might even be more than tens of billions, right?

This was in Haibei City, not some villa in the suburbs; the land alone was worth hundreds of millions.

"I didn't expect the Academy of Sciences to arrange a meeting in such an expensive place?"

"What are you talking about? This is my home, remember?"

Liu Shihhan laughed.

"What do you mean 'remember'? I've never been to your home."

"Hmph! You really did forget!"

Liu Shihhan's delicate eyebrows furrowed immediately, suddenly feeling a little wronged.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yun was currently admiring the surrounding scenery.

"Xiao Yun, when you grow up, you have to marry me!"

"No, you can't marry her, you have to marry me!"

What sound?

Xiao Yun suddenly opened his eyes, realizing there was no one speaking around him.

The driver remained silent, while Liu Shihhan next to him was still pouting and angry.

But, he had indeed heard something just now.

Was he hallucinating?

"This place... why does it feel so familiar?"

As the car slowly approached, looking at the surrounding scenery, Xiao Yun suddenly had a strange sense of déjà vu.

This luxurious villa, he felt as if he had seen this scene before?

At this moment, the driver looked at him through the rearview mirror, and Liu Shihhan also looked at him in unison.

Liu Shihhan had an expectant look, with a hint of joy in her eyes.

"Oh! I remember now, the Diamond Queen Hotel also looks like this from the outside."

"You... you! Hmph!"

...

Liu Shihhan and the driver immediately turned their heads away, falling silent once more.

"What's wrong with you two?"

Noticing their actions, Xiao Yun immediately felt a little confused.

What was wrong with these two today?

Were they waiting for him to praise this luxurious villa more?

"Oh, this mansion, it's just so beautiful, like a castle."

Xiao Yun said, carefully observing their expressions.

However, he only saw anger on Liu Shihhan's face and utter speechlessness on the driver's face.

What was going on?

Xiao Yun was suddenly a bit confused. What was wrong with these two?

They didn't want to hear him praise the villa, so did they want to hear him curse it? Impossible!

This was too mind-boggling!

...

Following Liu Shihhan into the villa, Xiao Yun was immediately drawn to the interior decor.

Unlike its opulent exterior, the entire interior was decorated in black and red, appearing very simple, low-key, and elegant.

"By the way, aren't Aunt and Uncle here?"

"They're not in Haibei City."

Liu Shihhan replied calmly.

Xiao Yun didn't ask further, but he was somewhat surprised inside.

Not in Haibei City, yet they bought such a large estate in Haibei City?

Could it be that this was specially bought for Liu Shihhan to use as a dormitory for school?

How rich was her family?

From the current situation, even Li Wenzhe's family probably wasn't as rich as Liu Shihhan's!

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Xiao Yun followed Liu Shihhan into the living room and found that four researchers were already seated on a sofa on one side.

The group consisted of both old and young, three men and one woman, appearing quite small in the large living room.

"Oh, not long at all, it's us who have troubled you two."

One of the elders stood up, a benevolent smile on his face.

Although he was advanced in years, his steps were very steady, and he walked excitedly towards the two as soon as he saw them.

"I presume this young man behind you is Xiao Yun?"
