Chapter 8 [An Unexpected Disaster]
According to the instructions of the mission, the five of them took the lead to find an NPC named Huang Banxian in Taoyuan Village.
It sounded like a fortune teller, so everyone decided to go to the village witch to try their luck first.
"Huang Banxian?" The sorceress stopped playing with the right hand of the prayer beads, thought for half a second, then shook her head and said in a deep voice, "I haven't heard of it."
"Okay, I see, thank you sorceress." Wei Lingyou replied, not surprised by this result.
The quest prompt does not represent the beginning of the quest, especially for a specific quest like the only anecdote, not just NPCs, but all talkable creatures within the scope of the quest may provide useful information.
"how is it going?"
Seeing Wei Lingyou walking out of the witch's house, Ye Lv and others who were forced by the NPC to wait outside quickly came up to him.
"The sorceress said she had never heard of this npc." Wei Lingyou shook his head, and continued with Ye Lv's expression changing from excitement to regret, "But now we can confirm that this npc is not a villager, so we can look for clues elsewhere."
"Ah——why is it so troublesome? Aren't rpg games just a little bit, and then follow the task to run the map and copy the book? Why do they still have decryption!"
Ye Lv rubbed his head irritably, and both cat ears drooped down.
"That's an online game in the era of keyboard and mouse." Bu Yetian stood beside him and said coolly.
As the saying goes, every other line is like a mountain.
Now it seems that even if it is a game, different types will arrange a top e-sports player without a clue in the early stage.
Fortunately, there was only Ye Lu, an rpg rookie, and after several people carefully studied the mission description several times, Wei Lingyou suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
"You say, is it possible that this Huang Banxian is not human?"
"How to say?" Ren Gexing looked up at him.
Wei Lingyou's expression was a little subtle, and he felt that his idea was indeed a bit ridiculous.
But thinking of the brain circuits of the dog planners in "The World" who are not human, Wei Lingyou still firmly expressed his views.
"The Huaxia District belongs to the Eastern Continent, so the designed plot must conform to the oriental culture and some folklore. I remember that there was a saying in the early years that a weasel who became a master was called Huang Daxian."
"Huang Daxian...Huang Banxian..." Bu Yetian groped his chin with his fingers, thinking about the connection between the two.
"And you look at the prompts given by the system." Wei Lingyou called up the task panel, "It only pointed to the name Huang Banxian. According to the inertial thinking, we will label him as 'magic stick' and 'fortune teller'."
"Actually, looking beyond the solidified thinking circle, this Huang Banxian may very well be a fine weasel."
"A weasel can't even speak when it becomes a spirit! How do you ask?" The little yellow dragon in the wave changed his posture and leaned crookedly, singing the opposite tune.
Ren Gexing rolled his eyes, "Taohua can still run on the ground, why can't the weasel talk?"
"Anyway, let's go out of the village to have a look." Wei Lingyou turned off the panel and made a decisive decision.
At the same time, he also briefly sorted out the conversation between himself and Shuanzi, and posted it in the chat channel of the team.
Ye has been wandering outside the dialogue Lv: "???"
Abba aba aba, what the hell are you talking about?
The npcs in the village are doing everything as usual, and they are indifferent to the loss of a child.
During the period, Wei Lingyou also intentionally chatted with a few villager NPCs, pretending to mention Erhu pretending to be intentional or unintentional, but all he got was an ambiguous answer like "the child's mother took the child back to her mother's home".
The attitude is very subtle, and even avoids talking about it.
Even Ye Lv felt something was wrong with this weird reaction.
"Go to the distant mountains first, and see where the hidden passage that the npc said leads to?" Ren Gexing stopped Bu Yetian, who wanted to investigate again, and exchanged glances with Wei Lingyou before opening his mouth.
Taoyuan Village is surrounded by mountains on all sides. The meandering river in the village flows out from the cracks in the rocks, forming a large lake at the foot of the West Mountain, and finally flows out along the river into the distant mountains, forming a complete cycle.
Although Taoyuan Village is isolated from the outside world, there is no way to leave this place.
The passage out of the village opened by the dungeon is only for players to travel together. According to normal thinking, the map of Taoyuan Village must have a passage for NPCs to travel.
After all, it is a novice village that accommodates tens of thousands of people, and the scene map is too small to justify it.
Without the assistance of the mounts, it was already an hour later for the few people to reach the scene of the incident just by running the map.
There are still many players around doing ring running tasks.
The unique mob in this area [Beautiful Phoenix-tailed Chicken] was chased by the players, cooing loudly, and its two short legs were running fast, causing the players to suffer unspeakably.
[Nearby] Wooooooooow: Damn it!What the hell? Why is the hunter so difficult to play? ? ?
[Nearby] I am the planner's father: Brother Chicken!Day, you let me kill it, okay!Anyway, you will be resurrected in a while! ! !
[Nearby] Amozai: Handicapped players should honestly return to the auxiliary mode. The free mode is for the bosses, and I don’t deserve it.
[Nearby] Lark: Jiu Min!Quickly tell me how to adjust it!This chicken flew into my face ah ah ah ah——
[Nearby] Is the watermelon round or not: System - Character Settings - Behavior Mode, no thanks, my name is Red Scarf.
The player and the chick fly together, and the chicken feathers have the same special effects, which is really spectacular.
"That... we will go straight through, and we will be forced into a combat state." Ye Lv looked at the chaotic battle situation in front of him, and with his high-end game awareness, he was sure that they would never be able to pass through here.
"Maybe we can take a detour." Ren Gexing agreed.
Wei Lingyou recalled the nearby terrain, and finally came up with a sad answer, "There is only this road, and we can't go to other places, unless you can climb rocks with your bare hands."
Four people: "..." This is really a sad story.
The colorful phoenix-tailed chicken at the foot of the distant mountain is one of the novice running ring tasks, and it is also the best place for leveling before leaving the village.
The scene was already noisy, but the sharp voice from one of the players was still so clear that no one could ignore it.
[Nearby] Silvr: Get out of the way, we've reserved this place!Everyone else will change places for me!
Hearing this voice, Wei Lingyou frowned slightly.
It's not uncommon to book a training session in his previous life, but he has never seen such an arrogant one.
A group of more than 20 people came out from the depths of the woods, blocking the only road into the woods.
In "World", non-teammates cannot view the opponent's information panel, only the level and occupation can be seen.In addition, the group of people who came here were all anonymous, and Wei Lingyou couldn't tell who was the Silvr who just spoke just from the appearance.
However...these people all had thick blood on their heads, and they came out of the woods again. Wei Lingyou had to reasonably guess that the strength of these people should not be underestimated. At the same time, most of the novice players in the woods may have been poisoned. .
These people seem to be quite arrogant, but this is a game, and there are so many arrogant and desperate players.
As soon as the words of renting out the venue came out, the players who were nearby or doing tasks or leveling quit.
[Nearby] Custard Buns: Why do you say it’s reserved?Have you written your name?
[Nearby] Crazy Criticism of Beauty: Who the fuck are you? !If you have a mental illness, go and treat it, don't f*ck to be a mad dog in the game!
[Nearby] War Madman: Why are you talking nonsense with them?Didn't you see that these people are red names?Copy guys do it!Kill famous players to increase honor and explode equipment!
[Nearby] Is the watermelon round or not: Grass!And such a good thing? !There happens to be an assassin on the opposite side, and that person is mine, no one is allowed to snatch it!
After several players howled a few times in the originally delicate situation, the other players who had been silently watching also rolled up their sleeves and took out their weapons, and swarmed towards the twenty or so celebrities.
Faced with this situation, Silvr and the others naturally couldn't remain indifferent to this situation. Without waiting for someone to remind them, Fenfen drew out his weapon to meet the crowd rushing towards them.
The melee was on the verge of breaking out, and the colorful chickens in the wild area were also flying around due to the indiscriminate AOE attack from the group.
The players' yelling and cursing, the special effects of skills, and the clucking of colorful chickens all echoed each other.
The five-member team serving as the background board: "..."
Wei Lingyou, who was not eloquent again: "..."
Suddenly, a colorful chicken with a colorful tail rushed out of the woods, stepped on the ground with one paw, and flew into the air with flapping wings.
In the next second, a pitch-black arrow shot out from behind the colorful chicken, hitting the little yellow dragon in the waves that had no time to dodge.
[Your team member [Never Night] was attacked by a player [Silvr], and the opponent has been identified as a red-named player, and the free counterattack time is 10 minutes]
[Your team member [Little Yellow Dragon in the Waves] was attacked by the player [Dog Hair], and the opponent has been identified as a red-named player, and the free counterattack time is 10 minutes]
Bu Yetian quickly gave himself a sip of milk, and then gave Langli Xiaohuanglong a continuous treatment.
"Grass! Standing here, how can you be implicated?!" Langli Xiaohuanglong cursed loudly, quickly took out his weapon astrology disk and entered the fighting state.
"We've been discovered, let's fight." Wei Lingyou said in a deep voice.
Holding the branch of a tree next to him with one hand, Wei Lingyou stepped on the trunk and climbed up the tree neatly.He hid among the dense leaves, and pulled out the [Bow of Life·Green] that dropped after killing the Peach Blossom Demon Queen from behind.
The first to attack is naturally the T among celebrities. The tank's taunting skills are not only effective in pve, even in free mode.
Wei Lingyou held his breath and turned on [Reserve], the 10-second countdown.
Sideways... over.
Back position... over.
Leaning forward...over.
Lift your jaw up!
It's now!
Wei Lingyou's eyes became fierce in an instant, and a [Powerful Shot] shot roared out 4 seconds after the [Reserve] countdown, hitting one of them with half a tube of blood missing, and the nurse hadn't had time to finish reading the article on saving him. The throat of the dead tank!
[You have killed the player [Silvr], drop [Resurrection Skill Book] x 1, get kill honor +10]
Resurrection!Good guy!
Wei Lingyou's eyes widened when he heard the system prompt.
Resurrection!
In the previous life, the special skill that was hyped for a sky-high price by nanny players, and now it exploded after killing a famous player!
Before Wei Lingyou's shock subsided, a system notification came right after.
