Chapter 355 Are We Going To Die?
“Are you… going to explain what happened behind the garbage dump?” “As you can see, I built a simplified version of the h.e.l.lcarrier,” Zhang Heng said.

As the two were talking, the voice of the waiter echoed from a distance. “Cool, there’s even a coffee machine here? Oh, it’s Nespresso! d.a.m.n, I want a cup of coffee now How did you build this thing in three minutes?! That’s incredible! Is this the true strength of the chosen one? I take back the words I said to you before, and I apologize most sincerely to you. With your leaders.h.i.+p, we might really be able to defeat the evil scientist …”
“It’s a bit complicated to explain. Something unexpected happened earlier; I don’t know if my method will work.”
The unexpected event Zhang Heng referred to was the first time he played with other players in the Apollo Training Camp. His extra 24 hours caused a game-time error, and the mistake wasn’t directly intercepted by the so-called ‘second-level authority’ when he was playing alone. Zhang Heng also didn’t know what the outcome would be if he failed the audit. This time, he was in a rare quest where he could leave freely. It was the best opportunity to test it out.
The results went beyond his expectations. When the watch pointed twelve, he entered the parallel dungeon smoothly. There was no warning or penalty for cheating, and it seemed to be the system’s default way of dealing with a player like him in a multiplayer dungeon. The alarm triggered in the previous round wasn’t existent in this one.
Zhang Heng traveled to the parallel dungeon four years ago, before the incidents that happened right now. He met the young version of the bald man, the waiter, the Messenger, and other master builders. He even met the scientist before he became an evil scientist.
Just like what the bald man told him, the evil scientist was the leader of all master builders. He was powerful, fair, selfless, and charismatic. Zhang Heng could get all the answers to his questions about a.s.sembling LEGO blocks from the scientist. In fact, he was the one who had helped Zhang Heng fortify his foundation in LEGO theory.
This simplified version of Helicarrier was first proposed by the scientist, and he guided Zhang Heng step by step all the way to its completion.
Until the terrible war erupted, Zhang Heng was one of the few who got to witness how a respectable scientist turned into an evil scientist, gaining a clearer and more intuitive view of his characteristics.
“Well, I won’t ask you how you transformed from a rookie to a LEGO master in the blink of an eye… I just want to know what level your LEGO a.s.sembly skills are?” Mei Nan asked.
“Lv.2, and it should be almost at the top of Lv.2,” said Zhang Heng.
In those 480 days, he had practically learned all the best creations from all the master builders. In the beginning, it was difficult to learn anything from them but after his skills were upgraded to Level 2, it became a lot easier to understand these things. His strong basics also allowed him to understand the quintessence of creation, and the was no need for him to learn from the beginning.
“Tsk tsk… so, from now on, we win battles with a snap of a finger?”
Mei Nan sat down on the couch in the control room.
