Chapter 2739 – Upper Zone

Zero Wing’s headquarters, top-floor lounge:

After Shi Feng finished tidying up, he made his way to the lounge . Upon entering the room, he noticed two girls sitting by the window and enjoying the scenery outside . Of the two girls, the elder one was Muxin, whom Shi Feng had met quite a few times now . Muxin wore a purple-cyan one-piece dress . Like the summer sun, she exuded an indescribable warmth . Her aura in the real world was quite unlike the solemn aura she had in God’s Domain .

The younger girl, sitting beside Muxin, wore a white sweatshirt and a pair of jeans . Although the younger girl gave off a sense of purity and sassiness, her petite figure only made her look like a little girl pretending to be an adult .

This younger girl was someone else Shi Feng had met in God’s Domain before . She was Kerui, Muxin’s younger sister .

“Shi Feng, you finally decided to show up . Do you know how long you made us wait here?” Kerui said, her face full of resentment as she looked at Shi Feng .

“Don’t listen to her . We didn’t wait very long,” Muxin said, shaking her head . “My sister and I can also take advantage of this time to relax and appreciate the city scenery in the outside world . And from what I’ve seen thus far, I have to say that this is quite an enjoyable feeling . ” Muxin’s words confused Shi Feng a little . “Appreciate the outside world’s city scenery?”

“Oh, right . I haven’t told you about it yet . ” Noticing the confusion on Shi Feng’s face, Muxin smiled faintly and said, “My sister and I have always lived in the Upper Zone, and we very rarely come out from there . ” “I see . ” Shi Feng nodded . However, Muxin’s answer only served to confuse him further . “Miss Muxin, is there no urban landscape inside the Upper Zone?” All Upper Zones were established in first-tier megacities . Logically, urban landscapes should be very common in such cities . In fact, the scenery these megacities offered should be much more spectacular than what was visible from Zero Wing’s headquarters . “You’ll understand once you visit the Upper Zone,” Muxin said, a friendly smile appearing on her face . “The Upper Zone is different from other places . Although Uncle Hong has given you the reserve slots, you still need to register with the Upper Zone first before you can enter . However, you’re probably unfamiliar with the Upper Zone, so Uncle Hong sent me to escort you so that you can avoid any unnecessary troubles . ”

“That’s right . If you don’t have the guidance of veterans like us, you’ll face a lot of trouble once you enter the Upper Zone,” Kerui said delightedly . “You might even get kicked out of the Upper Zone because of a single mistake . ”

Muxin did not refute Kerui’s words .

Looking at Muxin, Shi Feng said, “I’ll have to trouble you, then . ”

“It’s no trouble . ” Muxin shook her head . She then continued softly, “It is only thanks to you that Frost Heaven has managed to become a reserve Guild . ”

After saying so, Muxin picked up the black briefcase beside her seat .

“There are 50 bottles of S-rank Nutrient Fluid here . You should store them well,” Muxin said after opening the briefcase . She then warned, “However, while the S-rank Nutrient Fluid is indeed an excellent product, it’s best to avoid overusing it, as it is still incomplete . ”

“It isn’t a finished product?” Shi Feng was surprised by this revelation .

The S-rank Nutrient Fluid was something countless people fought to obtain . Just the fact that it could maintain a person’s youth was already unbelievable . Yet, this drug wasn’t actually a finished product?

“That’s right . It isn’t a finished product, so you should drink as little of it as possible,” Kerui said, nodding . She then continued in a surprisingly soft voice, “As you’re about to enter the Upper Zone, there are some things you are allowed to know now . The S-rank Nutrient Fluid is only a defective product . However, as it indeed has amazing effects on the human body, the Green God Company sells it in small quantities . Nonetheless, in the Upper Zones, drinking it isn’t recommended!”

Muxin nodded in support of Kerui’s words .

“Thus far, Kerui and I have drunk only two or three bottles of S-rank Nutrient Fluids because of special circumstances . Uncle Hong even severely warned us and banned us from drinking more . Uncle Hong isn’t someone who would harm us, so you should also be careful when using the S-rank Nutrient Fluid,” Muxin said earnestly .

Upon hearing this, Shi Feng couldn’t help becoming a little wary of the S-rank Nutrient Fluid . He then said, “I understand . I’ll have my people drink as little of it as possible . ”

If even the Upper Zone advised its residents against drinking the S-rank Nutrient Fluid, then there were definitely problems with this product . However, as to what exactly these problems were, most likely, only a small number of people knew .

Fortunately, aside from himself, everyone else in the Guild hadn’t consumed a significant amount of S-rank Nutrient Fluids .

“Now that our matters here are settled…” Since her elder sister had already transferred the S-rank Nutrient Fluids to Shi Feng, Kerui said excitedly, “Let’s go to the Upper Zone!”

“We’re going there now?” Shi Feng was a little stunned .

The Upper Zones were established only in certain first-tier cities, which were several hours of flight away . At this time, half the day had gone by already . “Of course . We have a supersonic jet ready,” Kerui said nonchalantly . “If we miss today’s opportunity, it’ll be very troublesome to schedule another appointment . ”

“Kerui is right . Although Uncle Hong has given you the status required to enter the Upper Zone, entering it isn’t easy . Since our matters here have been concluded, we should head over immediately,” Muxin said in agreement . “Okay . I’ll make some arrangements here and go with you afterward,” Shi Feng said without much hesitation .

After all, he, too, wanted to visit the Upper Zone . Not to mention, Gentle Snow and Aqua Rose’s situation wasn’t exactly optimistic . If left alone for too long, they might even fall into a coma .

Moreover, during his previous life, the Upper Zone was a place that even the executives of the various super-first-rate Guilds and first-rate Guilds yearned to live in . As for the Guild Leader of a second-rate Guild like himself, visiting the Upper Zone was something he never even dared to dream about .

Muxin being willing to escort him to an Upper Zone was naturally to his advantage .

After Shi Feng passed on his Guild affairs to Liang Jing, he went to the airport with Muxin and Kerui .

During their journey, Shi Feng had to admit that the Boulder Corporation was indeed wealthy and influential . With the corporation’s private supersonic jet, a trip that should’ve originally taken several hours on an ordinary airplane was completed in just one hour .

At the end of the flight, the trio found themselves in Yuantian City, one of only three first-tier megacities within the country to house an Upper Zone .

While crossing the city districts on a high-class maglev train, Shi Feng couldn’t help lamenting ruefully .

As a megacity with a population of more than 100 million, Yuantian City far outstripped other cities in terms of prosperity . It was also one of the cities Shi Feng had always wished to develop Zero Wing in, as it had many important resources rarely found in the outside world .

In fact, almost all super-first-rate Guilds and Super Guilds operating in the virtual gaming industry had their headquarters in cities hosting an Upper Zone . This was because the Upper Zones would occasionally release some of its resources to the outside world . The various corporations based in the megacities hosting the Upper Zones would quickly divide these resources among themselves, and very rarely would any of these resources leave the city limits .

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that only corporations that had set roots in an Upper Zone city could be considered a truly top-tier corporation . The road before Zero Wing was still very long . Meanwhile, after traveling inside the city for close to an hour and passing through many tunnels, Muxin parked the car in a vast area surrounded by steel walls . She then pointed at a huge door nearby and said, “We’re here . ” After saying so, Muxin got out of the car and led Shi Feng to the huge door .

Surro

“The Upper Zone is beyond this thing?”Shi Feng was amazed as he took in the 50-meter-tall stone door and the energy walls that enveloped the space above the enclosure .

In his previous life, he had only ever heard about the Upper Zone, and the information hadn’t been much . Now that he was looking at one himself, he could only describe the Upper Zone as a titanic building made entirely of steel .

“Let’s go in,” Kerui said to Shi Feng . As she pointed at the passageway underneath the huge door and a line of several dozen people entering it, she beamed at him and continued, “However, you have to be careful once you enter . ”

“Is there something special about it?” Shi Feng asked, confused .

“You’ll understand once you go in,” Kerui said, her smile growing even brighter when she saw the confusion on Shi Feng’s face . “However, you’d best be mentally prepared . Once you go inside, you won’t have a chance to return to your own world . ”

Afterward, Kerui stopped speaking and walked toward the passageway . Muxin had remained silent all the while .

However, after a moment, Muxin took a deep breath and looked at Shi Feng . She then said earnestly, “Although Kerui is right, there are unimaginable opportunities available in the Upper Zone . If you can prosper inside, even the various international corporations will have to treat you with respect .

“Anyway, time is almost up . Let’s enter, as well!”
