Arknights, please stop going crazy over the streamer's operators.

"Yes, I just got a little inside information. The weather bureau told me that there might be heavy rain outside in the next couple of days. Remember to wear a raincoat or bring an umbrella before you go out."

Nan Zhu continued, "I just see that you and Qingye are quite familiar with each other. Since that guy considers you a friend, I'll reluctantly give you a heads-up. But how to solve the climate problem is up to you. I'm not the God of Thunder or the Goddess of Lightning."

After listening, Li Ji thought carefully about what had happened recently.

Perhaps the only thing that might require caution is the transfer of operators.

After all, he had already said those words of rejection, which was a direct humiliation to the other party, so it was normal for the other party to take action.

If they were to actually become suckers, it wouldn't be the kind of thing people like them do.

A villain should at least look like a villain.

"The waves are too high, so Qingye and I probably won't be able to bring you an umbrella at the border. You have to take good care of yourself."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Nanzhu. I'll pay closer attention to the weather these next few days. As for the umbrella..."

Li Ji smiled and said, "I still have quite a few at home, which should be enough to cope with this heavy rain."

Li Ji also started calling Teacher Nanzhu "brother". Although their actual ages may not be the same, calling each other "brother" is not a loss.

The person who reminds him at a time like this can't be a bad person.

"It's nothing. I just happened to hear this news when I went back to the border tomorrow, and I thought I should let you know, so I came to tell you alone. That way, if something happens to you, Qingye won't have to run around bringing you an umbrella. It's not that I'm worried about Qingye, it's just that he becomes a real nuisance when something like this happens..."

Nan Zhu talked on and on on the phone like a chatterbox.

Like a formulaic arrogance.

But his words always revolved around Kiyono.

Li Ji just smiled and didn't want to expose him.

"Speaking of the frontier... I've never been to the frontier, I've only learned about it from the internet and books. What's it like there now?"

Li Ji listened to Nan Zhu's endless rambling and could only try to change the subject.

If it's just a simple chat about the weather, it seems rather deliberate.

This is also a good opportunity to learn about the current situation on the border.

Judging from the current trend, he will probably have to go to the border to provide support soon.

"The border region? Come to think of it, if you went there now, none of this would happen... But there's really nothing good about that place. Everyone says you can make a name for yourself there, but there's no signal at all now."

The greatest pleasure I have every day is playing single-player games by myself.

Every day, I get up early to eat, then go out to clear the land and clean up unstable cracks. I can't even sleep soundly at night.

Nan Zhu continued to ramble on, like a mute who hadn't spoken much for a long time, eager to say everything he wanted to say in a single day.

"Although I feel that every day is fulfilling, that's all that's left."

Forget it, you've never been there. I can't explain it to you no matter how much I tell you. You'll understand once you've been there. The cracks have widened, and many relaxing and entertaining activities are basically gone.

Alright, I've already informed them, and I'm hanging up now. Good luck.

Also, you must be thinking of introducing me to your katana-wielding buddy. How's he doing with it?

Nan Zhu had been sounding listless just moments before, but the moment the topic of Tai Dao Xia came up, he seemed to suddenly come alive, even his voice gained some strength.

This made Li Ji wonder if they were really there to warn him.

"He's still abroad. I'll definitely let you know when he gets here. But seriously, why don't you consider trying out dual swords?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Don't try to trick me into using dual swords! Dual swords? I hate you guys!"

Nan Zhu's resentful voice came from the other end of the phone, but he quickly asked in a low voice:

"By the way, how much damage does the Kirin Night Blade's aerial spinning attack inflict? This is just to satisfy a small personal question; I won't reveal it to anyone else!"

"Hmm... how about this, I'll tell you that she usually gets injured four or five times, but to explain it in detail, I need to use the Doppler effect... we also need to consider the armor, so we need to make a dot plot. How about we make a table together via video call?"

Li Ji thought about it and figured that, for Nan Zhu, the most he could do was not be able to see the number of damage segments, but he should be able to deduce some information based on the numerical values.

While higher total damage is always better, there's still the requirement of armor penetration threshold.

The armor penetration threshold of the Night Blade is indeed not as high as expected, and its advantage against high-armor targets is not very obvious.

If we were to actually discuss this now, we probably wouldn't get any sleep all night.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Nan Zhu immediately fell silent.

"Forget about using a calculator. I only need to know the number of segments, and I can roughly calculate the damage. Physics and math aren't really my thing. You know, when people are pushed to their limits, they can do anything, except solve physics and math problems!"

"I'm tired, goodbye."

Before Li Ji could react, Nan Zhu hung up the phone with lightning speed.

It's like a child who pretends to be sick and runs away in a panic when the math or physics teacher is about to ask him a question.

Li Ji was not given any other chance to explain.

"This guy is really impulsive. It's just a science question, why should a liberal arts student be so afraid? I was going to tell him about the invasion level increasing at eight o'clock tomorrow."

Li Ji chuckled and said.

However, he really didn't expect that Nan Zhu would call him to remind him to take precautions.

This already deeply moved Li Ji.

Aside from the operators he could trust, he really didn't have many friends in this world.

"Is it going to rain?"

Li Ji murmured these words and looked out the window.

The moon was shrouded in dark clouds, and shadows began to spread across the land.

Chapter 41: Another Visit

"Good morning, viewers. Welcome to the morning news on the Yan Kingdom Special Agent Channel."

"Five minutes a day to stay informed about everything happening in Yan Kingdom!"

"I am the host, Feng Lan."

"Breaking news today: the strategy team stationed in the safe zone to stabilize the rift and the frontline strategy team stationed at the border have discovered that additional components have fallen into the rift after 8:00 AM today."

"According to experts, it can activate certain abilities when equipped on operators, and may even produce special effects."

"However, the conditions for use are currently quite demanding, and some components even require energy after clearing advanced rifts in order to operate."

"Some components are still being explored."

"At eight o'clock this morning, the cracks in the border fortress began to show unusual activity. Our reporter Lin Li is rushing to the border fortress at full speed."

"Currently, there is still no signal at the border. Please stay calm and trust our Yan Kingdom border strategy team."

……

The morning breeze wafted through the gaps in the curtains, gently parting the sheer fabric and adding a touch of ethereal beauty to the tranquil morning.

Li Ji stood in front of the gas stove, playing the morning news on the loudspeaker.

The host's voice was clear and steady, and Li Ji could hear it clearly even amidst the sizzling sound of the frying pan.

The news is broadcasting breaking news that just happened this morning.

However, Li Ji was not surprised, since he had gotten up early precisely because of this news.

As a result of the existence of modules, he was quite interested in knowing what form modules take.

"Dungeon drops... are a bit old-fashioned. I thought it would be something like 'Experts have successfully researched a module that can improve operator skills!'"

Li Ji pursed his lips and made a couple of sarcastic remarks.

If it's research and development, then we might even encounter those 'non-existent things,' and if there's even one that can be installed on a lord... wouldn't that be a fatal blow?!

Now Thorn can really stay in Carry all the time, and maybe Ex-Husband can make a successful comeback.

The best SilverAsh module effect, plus the first talent enhancement and reduced redeployment time, would make him the world's number one component. You can use him, but you can't leave him out!

pity.

The current method of obtaining modules is through dungeon drops... so now we can't even dream about it anymore.

"My poor lord, how can I save you?"

As Li Ji spoke, he placed the fried egg on top of the bread, then carried it out.

"But I'm quite curious, will my template... have any mods?"

His streamer template is an extremely rare template that doesn't even exist in the game. I doubt the designers would create a special template for him.

"How about we search for it?"

With this strange idea in mind, Li Ji sat at the dining table, eating egg bread in large bites, while searching for information about modules on the relevant trading market.

Although it was only open for a short time, many low-level rifts still produced modules.

He just saw people discussing it in the live stream group.

He could also take this opportunity to look at related things.
