Chapter 1173: Mission
The second Monday after the Athletic.
Eve left the city of Bristoma on an elven mission. Companions include Nord Stream, Tanuki, Glutinous Rice Dumplings and Waltz. Due to the naval blockade on the Elven Island, it should not be possible to pass by sea. In the past few months, under Eve's favorability, the elven prince finally gave an important task, which was to ask Eve to bring a letter to the elf queen.
And another route was given.
Far away in the [Linde Are], in the [Curonian Mountains] close to the Great Elf Sea, there is a hidden ancient teleportation array. The elven prince asks Eve to activate the teleportation array with the token and elven blood, enter the elven island and bring the message to the elven queen.
Because it was about the cooperation between the elves and Karance, Nord Stream, as the current head of the Knights, was appointed to follow.
As for the other three, some people came because they had a task related to Elf Island before, but they never deleted it, so they followed. Others simply can't find anything to do, such as glutinous rice and tanuki.
"You two can actually make an appointment to go somewhere else. Eve sat on her little white fox and said to the two people in front of her, who were talking and laughing.
Glutinous rice and tanuki looked at each other, and then they both looked at Eve.
"What's the matter? I don't think we're good enough to be your bodyguard?" Tanuki quipped.
Glutinous rice dumplings also smiled, "There is nothing special I want to go to at the moment." ”
There are so many areas in the Prosperous Age that players can sometimes travel on mounts or on foot even if they don't have a mission to do.
The scenery in the game is extremely beautiful.
So that's why the prosperous era will be so hot, to the extent that it is suitable for all ages.
"And your mission is so dangerous, if more people follow, you don't have to worry about your own safety, and the mission will definitely be completed successfully. ”
The elven prince gave Eve a seven-day time limit because it was remote and there were no towns or villages nearby.
When they came, they had seen the big map, and there was a small town five kilometers away from the mountains, but it may have been destroyed by the hands of monsters, and they could only ride their mounts or flying beasts to their destination without a teleportation array.
It would take a lot of time, and the group started to rush early.
Eve snorted, "Anyway, Beibei is coming with me." ”
Nord Stream alone can reach ten. If you want to output, you have to defend, and if you want to defend, there is her, and others are here to play in Eve's eyes.
Glutinous rice dumplings looked at her and smiled: "Yes, in fact, we are here to make soy sauce." ”
"Well, look at the scenery. Tanuki nodded.
Eve couldn't help but roll her eyes at the two of them, then looked at the waltz and asked, "Round dance, you haven't submitted your quest for so long, are you sure you can still find that NPC?"
Waltz nodded, "It should work." ”
"What do you mean by should?" The glutinous rice dumplings in front were puzzled and turned around to ask.
Waltz said, "Because the quest hasn't shown failure or prompted me NPC to move." There are also coordinates on it, which should be ready to submit. ”
"It's been such a long time, what is the reward, you still have to go to the elf to submit. Eve was curious.
Waltz explained to a few people.
"Elven fruit?" Nord Stream was surprised.
Waltz nodded, "I was lucky enough to receive it before." You also know the role of the Elf Fruit, so if the quest doesn't show failure, I'll keep it until I get the reward. ”
Eating the Elven Fruit increases its permanent mana and elemental damage. And because this thing is the holy fruit of the elven race, it is very rare, and the value will be increased a lot.
If the average player has no chance or luck, it is impossible to receive the mission.
As soon as Waltz explained this, the others could probably understand why he had been on hold for so long, and he had traveled thousands of miles to go with them to Elven Island.
Now several people are in the [Black Forest], and they have been running for two hours. This forest is very large, and it is also called the Black Forest because it is on the edge of the black town.
Although they had been on the road for two hours, they were actually not too tired from Nord Stream, they were running and stopping all the way, and they were all running on their mounts, and they were not tired at all.
Different levels of mounts have different levels of comfort, the higher the level of comfort, that is, in the running, there will not be any bumps, the only more tiring may be to maintain this sitting posture, will be a little uncomfortable.
The occasional pause is also to eliminate this discomfort. The fatigue in the game is easy to disappear, and the player is unlikely to feel back pain or butt pain, they feel tired and stiff.
As long as you wait a few minutes, you may stop to nibble on bread and clean up tiredly, and your spirit will be restored.
In this forest, they had experienced the invasion of monsters before, so some of them were marked as dangerous areas on the map, and Nord Stream and they quickly entered that area.
Where they need to go, they have to pass through there, out of this forest, and continue to go farther and farther away. Soon, we arrived at the danger zone, and not far away we could already hear a lot of fighting, and after entering the boundary, I saw many groups of players killing monsters.
Today's Heyworld is big enough to accommodate hundreds of millions of players, and in the coming years the game will be even more real-world.
At least, there is no substitute for the prime game so far.
"It's Nord Stream. ”
"The Legends Group!"
Excited voices rang out all around, and the others couldn't help but slow down when they heard the words.
The group slowed down their mounts and dismounted. Glutinous rice dumplings glanced around, the trees here had withered, showing a large area of desolation, and there were many players nearby, but not just Karance.
In the past, there were very few players from other countries here in Karance, but now the Dark Age is basically common.
Nord Stream walked in front of a group.
"Hello. ”
Several people seemed very happy, but fortunately they were not so excited that they pounced directly. The craze for the competition has subsided, and a week ago, Nord Stream could be watched on the road, and some people even came up with a bear hug as soon as they saw her.
After chatting with a few people, I learned that they were Glenlin's players, and now they are running all over the map because of the monster mission. Sometimes I go to the edge desert of Ringel, but also to the town of St. Fran, the Dark Empire, Carlance. Basically, players who want to do monster quests now have a long journey.
Sometimes it can take as little as a month to travel between countries, and that's when the player realizes how big the game is.
So that's why Shengshi is known as the second world.
Nord Stream believes that meeting is also a kind of fate.
Because hundreds of billions of players travel on different maps every day, it is really fateful to be able to come here and meet.
After chatting for a while, Nord Stream said goodbye to everyone, got on their mounts and set off again.
After the person leaves.
Someone couldn't help but sigh and said: "Nord Stream is really better than it seems, talking too much." ”
Two minutes after leaving the Black Forest, Nord Stream and they entered the Gomat Savannah. There are no monsters on the grassland, only cattle and sheep and some ordinary level wild monsters.
Not long after they stopped talking, laughing, and laughing, they began to run on the grassland again, with the breeze of fresh grass blowing on their cheeks, and their bodies felt more comfortable than ever.
The waltz couldn't help but roar, as if it was about to shout out a lot of unhappiness, and after this roar, the whole person looked a lot clearer.
Nord Stream smiled faintly.
Waltz is a stressful job in reality, and people accumulate stress and emotions for too many reasons when they are in reality.
Sometimes I come to the game, see the beautiful scenery, visit the mountains and rivers, run on the grassland, walk in the desert, and feel the vastness of the desert.
This is also a method of decompression.
Games can really be relaxing.
In the evening, everyone arrived at the [Simma City], which is 203 kilometers away from the city of Blisth. It's a small European town that hasn't been overrun by monsters.
Several people got off their mounts outside the town, and there were many people coming and going at the city gate, including players and NPCs, and many vendors with stalls on both sides of the bridge outside the city gate, forming a small market.
Retrieving their mounts, they crossed the twenty-metre-long bridge and entered the small town.
By the city gate, Beixi took out a map, there are many marks on it, red represents the danger zone, and green is the safe wild area where there are towns or no monsters, and there are few wild monsters, which can also be said to be a necessary foothold during their journey.
Once nightfall, players either sleep offline in the safe zone, or they are outside in a tent and have to be guarded all night.
It is very dangerous to travel at night, and besides, it consumes a day's supplies, and if you don't settle down in these places in the city, the amount of supplies, if you encounter any danger outside, there is nothing to save your life at the critical moment.
"I'll go make up for it first. "The tanuki sorted out their packages and found that the mounts had less food, and they relied on flying mounts to get there, and the higher they were, the bigger they disappeared, and sometimes at the end of the day, both sets of food were not enough to maintain fatigue values.
"I'm going to see if there's any useful props in the shop. ”
Waltz hurriedly said, "Eh, glutinous rice, I'm with you, I want to buy some travel size." ”
"Is this set worn out?"
"It's almost there. ”
The two walked away.
Nord Stream looked at Eve, "Afu thinks about what she needs to resupply. After nightfall, I have to run for a few hours. ”
Nighttime is dangerous for most players, but for Nord Stream, there is no difference from daytime, only what they want to or don't want to do.
There is a gap between the game and the real time, and although it is night, the reality is still in the afternoon. Several people plan to go offline at 22 o'clock in real time.
You may have to stop once on the way to get off the line for dinner, and then get up and continue your journey.
Eve shook her head, "Mine is enough." After a pause, he thought about it and said, "I want to eat apple pie." ”
"I'll go to the bar and see if there's any. ”
Nord Stream said: "Then I'll come with you, I'll buy some juice." ”
"Uh-huh, let's go together. ”
At night, the streets of the town are still bustling with activity, with dancing girls and prodigal sons at the fountains, and enthusiastic singing and beautiful dancing attract pedestrians to gather.
This town is not big, but it makes those people who have been running for a long time feel happy and happy, laughter, the atmosphere is infectious, and the body has become full of vitality, happiness is contagious.
The two laughed and entered the bar, where Eve was fond of apple pie, which was only sold in bars except in shops.
However, not all NPCs in any bar will be sold.
Nord Stream asks for a bucket of juice, NPC takes her to the back warehouse to get it, and Eve asks the waiter at the counter if she has apple pie.
"Didn't you?"
"Well, this bar doesn't. ”
Eve received a definite answer, her expression a little lost. She hadn't eaten apple pie for a long time, it was sold in Leh, but the pie in the bar in Leh was not as delicious as in this small city.
"Huh. ”
The man stopped Eve and beckoned her to come back. Then he said: "Go out and turn right into the alley and walk inside about twenty or thirty meters, there is a bar, although it is small, but the apple pie made by the NPCs there is delicious." ”
Eve's eyes lit up when she looked up at him.
"You're a player, huh?"
The man nodded, propped up the table, stretched out his right hand and smiled heartily: "Hello, my name is Scorpion." ”
Eve shook back, "Thank you for telling me where there is a pie." ”
"You're welcome, serve the beautiful women. Besides, you're from the Legend team, and I like your guild. ”
Eve smiled and bent her eyes.
"Thank you~"
"You're welcome!"
Eve sent a message to Nord Stream, and Nord Stream quickly replied. She had to divide the packs, so it would take a few minutes, and the two of them made an appointment to meet at the fountain in five minutes.
Eve walked out of the bar, but she didn't know that in the corner of the bar, after watching her leave, the man also got up to leave.
Eve quickly found the bar that the man said, pushed the door in, the bar was small but very exquisite, Eve inquired and made sure that there were still a lot of apple pies, and bought hundreds of them in one go.
Then he walked out of the bar happily.
Not a few steps into the alley, Eve quickly took out the scepter, one end of the scepter fell to the ground, making a crisp sound of "ding", the bell shook, and a shield appeared on Eve's body, spreading outward.
The man was swept out by the light, and Eve, seeing that he was wearing a cloak, did not step forward, but stepped back with her scepter in her hand and said, "Who are you?"
Ding, you are being attacked by a Nameless player
"Nameless?" Eve looked at the system prompt, and the person used a badge with a hidden name. Are you prepared?
The target is her?
The man did not answer her, but rushed forward with his weapon in hand, and in the blink of an eye he was behind him, and Eve dropped his staff, and the light shook the man, and the man chuckled.
But they didn't attack again.
Eve thought the man was strange. It can be seen from the weapon that it is a thief, if you want to hunt her, the thief will enter the stealth in this case, but the other party does not, so Eve can keenly sense the killing intent.
Judging by the other party's behavior... It's like you're kidding her??
Eve was a little unhappy.
"Who the hell are you? The two of us have no grievances, and it's not good to suddenly do something to a girl. ”
The man said, "What are the people from the Legend Group doing in this place?"
