National Destiny Delta: A single flower blooms, and everyone is bathed in warmth.

Chapter 292 The New Buoyancy Elbow Strike Warrior!
"The central control unit, this is a good location."

After surveying the surroundings, Lin Ling nodded in satisfaction.

It's not that we have to fight for food, it's just that this is the closest place to buoyancy.

If you were born in a place like a prison, by the time you finally manage to get to the core area after all the hardships, your buoyancy would probably have been completely eaten up!
"Here's the gun, give me the armor."

After handing the fully modified QC171 to Shi Yu, Lin Ling also picked up the damaged Wu Jia and outdoor baseball cap from the ground.

Because the mission requirement of "My Heart Will Go On" is to enter the battle without carrying any armor, he had to ask Shi Yu to help him carry the equipment in order to meet the battle preparation requirements.

As for why we need to wear armor, the reason is quite simple.

Armor provides 50% damage reduction against bullets of the same level.

In addition, the shield itself provides 30% damage reduction, so if the opponent uses gold bullets, the first three shots will only deal 35% damage, which is almost negligible.

The reason it's 35% instead of 20% is mainly because Delta's damage reduction mechanism is multiplicative.

按照公式，是（100%-50%）*（100%-30%），等于50%*70%，最后的结果就是百分之三十五。

With five layers of armor for self-defense, one can have a very high margin of error when facing early-stage buoyancy elbow strikes.
Outdoor baseball caps serve a decorative purpose and can also increase the pickup range.

After all, buoyancy elbow strikes are mostly close-quarters combat, so there's no need for such advanced equipment as a level 4 hearing helmet.

Once we've taken them down, it'll be time to upgrade our weapons.

"If we run like this, will we run into one of the two members' men?"

Bai Li, who was following behind, spoke with a hint of worry in her voice.

She has a habit of watching the replay and reviewing the game after each round.

If I remember correctly, in the last game, the White Eagle Kingdom, which was spawned in the central control area, encountered the Camel Kingdom with two members while heading to the core area.

In that case, they are very likely to replicate the same situation.

"What's there to be afraid of! So what if we run into each other?"

Lin Ling simply shrugged at this.

A lineup with two shields and one healer is already quite strong.

Besides, with the smoke bombs from the bee doctor, they can retreat at any time whenever they want.

Moreover, they are not like the White Eagles from the previous game, who were in a hurry to get into the core area for a meal.

As long as the buoyancy isn't activated, whoever wants to eat in the other three rooms can eat!

In the end, it's all yours anyway!
"Take out the sniper on the roof."

Glancing at the reflection on the rooftop, Lin Ling spoke up to remind him.

The gun I have is a piece of junk, only good for clearing out bots; it's too much trouble to shoot long-range targets.

Most importantly, the attribute points I previously acquired were only used on semi-automatic and bolt-action sniper rifles; my performance with other weapons remains at the level of missing every shot.

"understand!"

After nodding, Shi Yu turned around and fired two shots.

As the gunshot rang out, the body of the sniper Hafk rolled down from the rooftop and crashed heavily to the ground.

"It seems the two members didn't come. Let's go straight to the core area."

Lin Ling glanced at the person opposite her and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Logically speaking, the two players should most likely face off against the central control unit at the start of the game.

However, the team with the most freedom in the entire space base is the second member; all other teams' decisions must follow the second member's lead.

But no matter what, I only have one goal.
Elbows enter the buoyancy chamber!
"Are they trying to achieve buoyancy?"

Inside the command center, Bai Shan, watching the live broadcast, reached out and touched his chin.

Although Lin Ling's team composition was a bit strange, the tactical arrangement was normal.

Furthermore, the team that hasn't encountered either of them yet is incredibly lucky!
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, they should be the first team to enter the buoyancy zone!

After consuming the buoyancy potion, head straight for the CEO!

If we could take all of the president's supplies, it would be equivalent to taking almost half of the core area!

That's why time is of the essence at the space station.

Step by step, step by step!

The fastest team can easily snowball their advantage!
This truly means time is money! "Wait, something seems a little off?"

However, one expert suddenly noticed something was wrong.

Why is Lin Ling sitting on the pile of medical supplies and AFK in the screen?
"???"

Only after being reminded of this did Bai Shan notice this, his eyes filled with bewilderment.

Because the medical stack was located in a corner, it was in the shaded area.

Lin Ling crouched down with a shield in hand, and because of the black shield, he didn't actually see it at first.

But what is he doing squatting here?!

Hurry up and finish eating so we can go to the CEO's place!
Why are you squatting here?

At the same time, looking at the shadow in the corner, Bai Li was also very puzzled.

Is that place some kind of auspicious feng shui location?

"Just hide it well, don't ask any more questions."

Lin Ling did not respond to this.

This spot is considered an old favorite for players who prefer to play defensively and ambush others.

The corner was already dark, and with the shield's stealth ability, it was really hard to spot someone from a distance unless they were specifically there to search.

In this place, I have elbowed countless little sugar babies to death.

"But, can't I really eat that airline crate?"

Looking at the flight case so close to him, Shi Yu, who was hiding in the cabin with Bai Li, wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth.

With such a large flight case right in front of her, she was really itching to get her hands on it.

"We can't open it! How are we supposed to fish if we do!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Ling immediately refuted.

If buoyancy elbows are fishing, then airline boxes are the bait!
Who ever catches a fish and eats the bait themselves?

Missing the Air Force, huh!

"If you really want to eat, go downstairs and eat the safe."

After thinking it over, Lin Ling relaxed her requirements a bit.

By the time someone falls into the pit, it's like a fish taking the bait—they're already dead.

Even if it is discovered that the safe has been opened, it will not have a significant impact.

"OK, I'm going downstairs to eat!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yu eagerly crawled out and slid down the rope into the pit.

The moment she landed, she rushed to the safe near the edge and quickly began cracking the code.

“GA6”

"Wait! I think I heard a sound?"

Just as Lin Ling was about to ask her what had happened, the sound of footsteps coming from not far away made his expression immediately freeze.

Why did they have to come at this exact moment?

"Shi Yu, don't come up after you're done. Stay down here first!"

After a brief moment of contemplation, Lin Ling immediately began to reorganize his plans.

If Shi Yu comes up immediately after finishing his meal, he might very well run into her.

Everything would be for nothing!

"Bai Li, you stay hidden too. No need to reply if you receive this!"

After issuing the final command, Lin Ling retreated behind his shield and fell silent.

Seeing the figure appear on the platform, he couldn't help but smile with amusement.

"MAN! We've been waiting for you!"
