Chapter 46: Teaming Up
The Frost Dragon is a world boss that drops a lot of loot.
Night picked up the Flying Ring, but Cold Light picked up the emblem of the frost dragon Christol, which triggered a task to bring the emblem back to the Priests' Guild and give it to Nati Yavida, the head of the association, and after receiving the reward, he received a follow-up mission to investigate in this sunken city under the sea, so he didn't expect to meet Night here, let alone see her like a wolf.
She was pale in front of her, gasping for breath, she looked less indifferent and calm, and a little more fragile and helpless, which made Hanguang involuntarily think of her standing at the gate of the main city of Isedam a few days ago, and the feeling she brought to him at that time was very similar to this moment, causing a ripple throbbing in his heart.
However, it was only for a moment, at least he felt that it was only a moment, the night had already raised his eyes, glanced over, the cold gaze was as always, full of indifference and vigilance, and immediately let him withdraw from his state of distraction, and teased her with a smile: "Why are you so wolf?"
Teasing and ridiculing, Hanguang didn't expect to see her embarrassed, but she didn't expect it to be so fast, she was just slightly stunned, and then she stood up with a comfortable expression, held the staff and looked back at him and said, "Why are you ghosted?"
She is the only one, and seeing him is like seeing a ghost, so she can't avoid it.
"I just went online, okay. Hanguang was a little angry and said with a smile: "How did you know that I would meet you here, and besides, the two of us don't have any deep hatred, so we don't need to be so tense every time we meet, right?"
The night lowered her eyes, as if she was thinking about it, and after a while, her hand holding the staff loosened slightly, and said lightly: "That's right, you PK my business, it was smoothed out last time, and I still owe you a thousand gold coins that haven't been repaid." ”
"If you don't say it, I'll forget. Hanguang couldn't help but tease her again: "This year, it is really more important than the debtor." You ......"
He wasn't done yet. Seeing the night, he walked to a table, poured out a bunch of blue suits and seven or eight skill books from his backpack, and then said to him, "These things should be worth a thousand gold coins, right?" ”
These things are worth more than a thousand gold coins!
The cold light blackened: "I was joking just now! Do you know the joke? I didn't ask you to pay back the money right now." ”
"I know. Ye Jing said calmly: "But these things were originally meant to be returned to you, and they have nothing to do with your jokes." ”
Hanguang stared at the table full of things with an unpredictable expression, and said word by word: "You really plan to do that?!"
"Otherwise?" Ye Shi glanced at him and said, "Look at your appearance, you don't look like someone who is short of money, so wouldn't it be better to give you back your things?" These blue suits are all more than level 40. There are also skill books that are rare on the market at present, and there are so many people in your guild that you will always be able to use them, besides-"
Han Guang raised his eyebrows: "What?"
Ye Jing said calmly: "My backpack is full, just empty a little." ”
......
Hanguang stared at her speechlessly, and looked back at him silently in the night. In the end, Hanguang was defeated under her gaze that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, and she raised the corners of her mouth helplessly and said, "You won." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his eyes to catch a smile in the eyes of the night, but the smile was very faint and faint, and it was shorter than a flash in the pan, and as soon as he realized what he had seen, the smile had disappeared, and the night had turned away. Take a fresh look at the stone house.
Her expression has always been so faint that people can't even see the love. How could it be laughed?
Hanguang absentmindedly swept the things on the table into his backpack, and then turned to look at the night. I saw her standing quietly in front of the door, looking at the sea water that was blocked outside, and I didn't know what she was thinking.
He walked over, followed by the blue and transparent underwater world outside, and then looked at her focused face, and smiled slightly: "There is an enchantment here, it feels a bit like standing outside the glass curtain wall of an aquarium, right?"
The night stared still, stretched out her palm and pressed it forward, and when the palm was close to the place where the sea water was blocked, she felt as if it was covered with a transparent film, and with a little force, the palm of her hand penetrated directly out, touching the cold sea water, but when her palm retracted again, it was as dry as ever, and not even a drop of sea water was brought in.
She looked down at her palm, and after a moment suddenly asked, "You said you were just online?"
"Hmm. Hanguang leaned against the wall and said lazily: "When I found this undersea city according to the task prompts yesterday, it was already late, and I saw that it was quite safe here, so I went offline directly." ”
"Then you should know what this place is, right?"
"Don't you know?" Hanguang replied in surprise, "This is Radarren, once known as the City of Glory, the greatest city in the world of Eislien, located in the heart of the continental plate. ”
As he spoke, he dragged out the map, and after choosing to show the world, his slender fingers drew a circle in the center of the map: "This is it." ”
"Storm Sea?" Night glanced at it and found that the sea area he had drawn out was the Storm Sea that blocked the Solan Continent and the Hill Continent, that is, the southernmost part of the Solan Continent, the sea area facing the Sunken Bay, strictly speaking, the sea area outside Tide Town was also included in the scope of this Storm Sea.
Hanguang nodded and said, "Have you seen the background of the game? Radarren was the place where those magicians studied forbidden magic in the first place, and as a result, they led the Void Storm. It may have been that the center of the storm was safer and the city was not destroyed, but the continental plate was torn apart and the city sank to the bottom of the ocean. ”
It turns out that the Storm Sea refers to the place where the Void Storm is generated, and the name of the sunken bay is also to commemorate the city that sank to the bottom of the sea, right?
Nightshade glanced at the map again and asked the question she was most concerned about: "Do you know how to get out?"
Hanguang seemed to guess her thoughts, and said with a slight smile: "I took a boat to the Hill Continent, and I jumped into the sea halfway to come here, if you want to go out according to the route I came, then I'm afraid that you will be tired and hung up halfway through." ”
Not only is the fatigue value full, but the underwater breathing potion is definitely not enough! It seems that you can only follow the mission prompts, search this underwater city first, and maybe find the magic teleportation array that goes out, or a hidden route like the undead passage......
The night was still secretly thinking in his heart, and the team invitation panel popped up in front of him, and at the same time he heard the system prompt: "Player Hanguang invites you to join the team." ”
"You look like you've just arrived here. The task hasn't been completed yet, has it?" Hanguang looked at her and said, "It's better to team up and do it together." ”
Nightshade stared at the invitation panel and said, "What's your mission?"
Han Guang said succinctly: "Investigate here." What about you?"
Night glanced at him and said truthfully, "Search here." ”
Their tasks are certainly different, and the purpose of the investigation and search is also different, but the location of the mission and the general objectives are the same.
Hanguang smiled: "Then there is no conflict, and it seems that we have an additional common task, which is to find a way out of here." ”
The two of them looked for the exit together. It's better than she alone.
Night thought about it and accepted the invitation to form a team.
The stone house they are currently in, except for the architectural style and interior furnishings that are a little quaint and rough, the others are similar to the houses in the main human city of Isedan, anyway, there are all kinds of tables, chairs, beds and cabinets, which are quite comfortable and convenient. Therefore, they decided to understand each other's tasks before going out on a mission, and then work out a mission route for both.
At this time, the two sat at the table, and Ye Yu first briefly described his task: "I don't know what the clue of the mission is looking for, but it must be related to the magician and alchemist, so the focus of my search may be in those magician towers, or the alchemist's laboratory." ”
Hanguang listened thoughtfully. I made a few marks on the map. Only then did he slowly elaborate on his mission: "You should remember that before we killed the frost dragon, it was seriously injured and dying, right? The NPCs in the Priest's Guild say that it was wounded by necromancy and infected. Let me investigate here and see what is out of the ordinary. ”
"Here?" the night sensitively and prepared to capture the key word.
"Not bad. Hanguang knew what she was going to ask, and smiled slightly: "This is the dragon's nest." ”
Just kidding! Isn't it a creature like a dragon that has always been very proud, how can it be nested in an abandoned city that has sunk to the bottom of the sea?
The night stared at the cold light and said, "Go on." ”
Hanguang flipped through the game background settings in the game guide and said, "Forbidden magic tore the void, which caused concussions and storms, so this sea area is also where the void rift was originally located. ”
"I know, the Void Rift was sealed later, what does this have to do with that dragon?"
"It's here to take care of the seals. ”
Yeshiyi raised his eyebrows and said, "The NPCs of the Priest Guild suspect that something is wrong with the seal?"
"Almost. Hanguang said helplessly: "Anyway, I think it's very strange, that stupid dragon has been here for so long, if there is something really wrong with the seal, why didn't it find out? And this kind of complex task in the game has always been shady, you have to think about it seriously, you will be killed by the task, so don't think about it so much, just know the purpose of the mission, in short, the purpose of my mission is to investigate here and see what injured the stupid dragon......"
When Hanguang said this, he seemed to think of something, suddenly stopped, looked at the night, and stopped talking.
I haven't closed my eyes for dozens of hours in the night, in fact, I am already very sleepy, and I have been listening to him with my energy, so my reaction at this time is a little unable to keep up with him, and I looked back at him a little blankly and said, "What did you think of?"
*――*――*――*
I was sick, and I felt dissatisfied in the middle of writing in the afternoon, so I deleted it all over again, so it was inevitably too late, so you beat me......
