Chapter 29: The Watcher
Near the camp gate, in front of the wooden wall on the left, there are two billboards, and a group of players gather in front of the boards to watch the signs.
A few steps apart from the outer edge of the crowd, two men standing together pointing at the signs, turning their heads from time to time to speak, looked in the direction of the military tent of the Anning team, intentionally or unintentionally.
“…… See? the one with the cloak in the middle!" said the thin man.
"See, why is it so tightly wrapped, I can't see my face!" said the tall man with a big face.
"Didn't you see it yesterday? It's so eye-catching! That's an iceberg beauty, no more than twenty years old, much more beautiful than those Internet celebrities! I just didn't hear her voice clearly, and I don't know if she deserves to be on her face. ”
The two men exchanged a man's look with each other, and with a smile, the thin man continued, "The boss told us to keep an eye on her, and it would be better to determine if she is a player or not." ”
"Didn't they all say they were NPCs?" the tall man was surprised, "If it wasn't for a high-level NPC, how could she have entered the camp last night? ”
"The NPCs in the camp are all Caucasians, and she looks just like us!" the thin man hesitated.
"It's rare and weird, as I said on the forum, some camp players have also seen black-skinned, green-skinned, and blue-skinned NPCs!"
"How do I know what the boss thinks!" the thin man was speechless, annoyed, "Anyway, the boss just wants us to keep an eye on her and report her movements, anyway, there is a subsidy, we will keep an eye on it, and in the afternoon Xiaowu and they will come to change us." ”
"Hey, another wasted morning!"
The tall man was depressed. "This team is really boring, Boss Cheng's attitude towards Li Xiao and their brothers is too chilling. ”
"That's Li Xiao's TMD nerves! What else can the boss do, can he carry it hard with those camp guards and put us all in!"
The thin man disagreed, "Moreover, I think the boss wants us to stare at people, and he must want to hold back a big move!"
The tall man was surprised and understood something, "You mean, the boss wants to be able to calm down the team's gang?"
"Wait and see!"
The thin man said mysteriously.
……
After separating from Ye Chenghe and a few people. Ye Ningning went to the barracks on the other side of the camp to hand over the task.
The camp has a curfew from 8 p.m. to 4 a.m. The gate of the camp will open after 4 o'clock, and the barracks will start practicing before that, and when the slogan sounds, Ye Ningning will wake up.
The caster must not sleep less than 4 hours per day. Failure to do so will reduce focus. Ye Ningning's accurate grasp of rest time has developed a habit. Avoiding waste, making the most of and allocating time, qualities that most of the top players in previous lives had.
At this time, the magic shop was not open yet. Ye Ningning went directly to Captain Karl and received a meritorious task to reconnoiter the battlefield.
……
Mission Name: [Scout the Battlefield]
Mission Requirements: Captain Carl asks you to conduct a follow-up reconnaissance on the battlefield left by the King of Fighters yesterday to confirm the whereabouts of the escaped gnolls.
Mission duration: 6 hours
Reward: Divine Radiance Camp Merit +1,20 gold
Failure Penalty: -2 Divine Radiance Camp Merit
Number of Missions: 1 person
……
This quest is a follow-up to yesterday's quest, with a hidden access limit, and must be a player who participated in yesterday's battle and has a camp merit, this kind of quest was jokingly called a rookie quest in the previous life, because players who have just joined the camp army often receive this kind of obvious test for novice quests.
Ye Ningning is not a member of the Anning Mercenary Group, she joined the mission as a lone mercenary yesterday, after two tasks, her merit has 15 points, and it is far from the 50 points of becoming a squad leader.
If you're in a neutral camp, NPCs tend to be more flexible, and it's possible to get a higher-paying mission through special means.
Of course, Ye Ningning's purpose in taking on the task was not to make meritorious achievements, but to do a task by the way while being familiar with the surrounding environment of the camp.
This was also a habit she developed in her previous life.
Not to mention the place where it was the first time to go, it was the Demon Well in the previous life, Ye Ningning would also re-explore it every once in a while to confirm the changes in the terrain, environment and creatures.
This habit allowed her to detect the traces and traps of the enemy in advance, which had long been engraved in her bones.
Although she spent most of the year in the Shenhui camp at the beginning of the game in her previous life, she knew the surrounding environment of the Shenhui camp, including the types of monsters and the distribution of ethnic groups, the main gathering points and hunting points, as well as the production sites such as logging grounds and fishing grounds, but Ye Ningning would not remember her previous life, no matter how similar this world was, it was different from her previous life, Ye Ningning only believed in her own eyes.
This morning, the area she explored was only twenty miles south of the camp, and further south it was into the secret realm of the deep market.
The south of the camp did not change from her impression, Ye Ningning found traces of the migration of deer, found a small group of plain gray wolves in the distance, and a bobcat dotted her for a short distance, and soon disappeared.
There was a reservoir on the east side of the battlefield, and there was the smell of urine from the jackals marking the hunting grounds in the upper reaches of the reservoir, and Ye Ningning found that most of the gnolls who escaped from the battlefield yesterday went in that direction.
Gnolls are also a social humanoid race, and their social composition is the same as that of kobolds, goblins, lizardmen, and other low-intelligence races, all of which are primitive tribal systems.
Most of the tribes of this low-intelligence race have the habit of taking in young and strong people from outside, so as to increase the strength of the tribe, provided that there is no exiled leader among the outsiders, otherwise it will develop into a battle between the clan leaders.
The size of the hunting ground is closely related to the strength of the tribe, but this gnolls tribe is located in the plain area inhabited by the human race, or between the two camps of Shenhui and Shenyao, it is impossible to develop, and like in the previous life, this small gnoll tribe lives by fishing, and the river section upstream of the reservoir is their hunting ground.
Ye Ningning took a turn around the periphery of the gnoll hunting ground and slaughtered a team of gnolls who were unlucky enough to meet her.
However, the roar of the last gnoll before death also alarmed the gnoll tribe, Ye Ningning cleaned up the traces before they arrived, left quickly, took a cold shower downstream of the reservoir, completely eliminated the smell on his body, and only then got rid of the tracking of the dogs' noses behind.
This little friction is not a big deal, similar "activities" often occur between different races adjacent to the territory, and the gnolls tribe is undoubtedly the weaker side, they dare not chase after the territory of Shenhui's camp, bark angrily and go home.
Maybe after they go back, the tension of this gnoll tribe will be a little troublesome for the players and merchants in the past, but what is the matter with Ye Ningning?
She returned to yesterday's battlefield and found three or four red-spotted rum flowers in the place where the body was burned yesterday.
This flower is mostly found in places where the dead gather and there is a lot of resentment, such as mass graves or crematoriums, and it can bloom overnight after absorbing the resentful dead souls, and wither after the last rays of sunlight of the day disappear, and is the main ingredient of the berserk potion, each worth about 20 gold coins.
