Chapter 211: Competitors
The two walked out of the apartment and looked around in the land of ice.
As I said before, the entire Ice and Snow Country is in the extreme north of the northern continent, and it is said to be a country, but in fact, the area here is comparable to that of Stormwind, the capital of the Lionheart Empire.
And now, this country that is already in the snow season all year round, covered with ice and snow, is like a fairy tale, but it is as quiet as death.
Tang Xin and Wen Er went door to door to investigate, and found that the aborigines were all in a certain position and fell into freezing.
Some are like neighbor couples, frozen when eating, frozen when reading and doing things in their rooms, and some even walking on the street, and the next second they become a lifelike ice sculpture.
All the inhabitants seem to maintain their posture for the second before they were frozen, and the ice sculptures can be seen in the repetitive and ordinary life traces of ordinary NPCs.
"There are no players." Tang Xin almost immediately came to a conclusion.
At this time, Wen Er put down the communicator, and during this time, he contacted the intelligence department of Wolong Fort, as well as the drunken brother's drunken care, the two intelligence services they trusted the most, gave a completely opposite message.
"Brother Drunk said that the land of ice and snow is good, because other places are fighting, it is more lively, and there are a lot fewer players in the country of ice and snow, but there are still many players who are dedicated to studying alchemy and ice magic walking in the city to do tasks, and there is nothing abnormal." Wen Er said lightly and shallowly, without looking too surprised.
"So maybe we're not in the Land of Ice and Snow right now?" Tang Xin also understood something in an instant.
This is a common practice in the late game.
Some quests guide the player, or crucial players have to go through the ...... with cities, nations, temples, and gods and other related large-scale tasks. A special space will be opened for them separately, officially called a parallel space, which is actually a separate copy. It's just that unlike ordinary copies, the final direction and outcome of these copies will have a certain degree of impact on the main material space.
This is a somewhat computationally resource-intensive move, especially when an entire city and country is served by one or two, at most, a small group of players, and you can see how painstaking and player-oriented the game is.
High-end players like Tang Xin and Wen Er naturally appreciate it. Because they have another interesting puzzle to solve.
"First of all, I think we should figure out why we triggered this mission." Wen Erdao, he gently turned his head and said to Tang Xin. "Talk about your two pets, especially the one named Ender, it's a key."
"Hey, do you have any opinion on Little Ender? From the beginning. I always think you don't like him very much? Tang Xin said teasingly.
Wen Er smiled lightly: "He's a male human. It's not really a kitten, he always likes to burrow into your arms before I educate him...... But I don't dislike him~ Fat, and it's quite cute~"
He smiled softly and seemed to like small animals.
Tang Xinhu looked at him suspiciously, no wonder she always felt that Ande would rather lie on her shoulders and head than let her hug, it turned out that she had been educated a long time ago?
She doesn't even know~
What a filthy heart this man is!
"What I know about Ender. Most of them have told you that he is the youngest son of the Lord of the Northlands. ...... encountered at the Death Trail and the Ghost Castle Later, in the small town of Oradul, he disappeared for a while, and finally appeared in the palace of the Ice Empire, when the ice princess Emily took it in, and later, Ender disappeared several times, and the last time was in my apartment that I teleported to the Land of Ice, it jumped out of the window and disappeared, I was busy investigating the reality of the chase and the Hollow Valley City, I didn't care about him, and sent Derpy to chase him, at first Derpy would send a message back, but then there was no news of either of them. She probably recounted what he probably didn't know much about, and what she knew, he already knew.
"It can be determined that Ender must have a connection with the royal family of the Ice and Snow Country, and the neglected NPC of the Lord of the Northland may be more mysterious than we thought, and as his son, Ender's identity is not so simple." He sketched out a story in a few words.
The Lord of the Northlands and his son Ender, what are their hidden identities?
What does it have to do with the royal family of the Land of Ice and Snow?
At this moment, Tang Xin and Wen Er suddenly heard a commotion.
The two turned to look at the city gate not far away, and a well-equipped team of players walked in, leading the ......
It's still an acquaintance~
"Wen Yu, Tang Xin?" When someone saw the two of them, the surprise on their faces couldn't be faked, and she seemed to be incredulous and walked in and looked at them twice, confirming the identities of the two.
"Sister Gu Huan, Brother Gu Qi, it's you." Wen Er greeted him cordially but not closely, obviously just polite words, but he didn't feel unfamiliar.
"Hello, sake and ...... Sorry, dude, I forgot your name. Tang Xin greeted with a big grin, and looked at another noble son who was very clean, and his expression was also very generous.
She only remembered that she had fought against the two of them on the Angel and Demon Battlefield in the Mercenary Group Battle Qualifiers, and that sake Guhuan was still a potential rival, but Tang Xin still wouldn't
"It's okay, it's okay to call me Gu Qi, I didn't expect to see you, are you also here to do the task of the Frozen Throne?" Listening to the wind and drinking, that is, Gu Qi, straight to the point, seems to be refreshing and direct, but in fact, it is to test these two people.
Wen Er and Tang Xinju were silent, just from the expressions, they were definitely two emperors of acting.
The two looked at each other and exchanged glances.
Wen Er spoke: "Yes and no, we do have a clue to the Frozen Throne, but coming to this copy is just a coincidence." Did you take on the main quest? You can also bring a team to come in through the city gate. ”
"Well...... We did take the task, and the clue to the task is the entrance to the dungeon, but now that everyone has solved the same task, it is a competitor relationship, this frozen throne, my little sister and I are bound to get it, so ......" Gu Qi first answered Wen Er's question, and then Guang Guang refused to continue to provide clues.
Gu Huan looked at Wen Er and seemed to want to say something, but he glanced at Tang Xin beside him again, but he wanted to stop talking, not knowing if he recalled the experience he had at school that day.
"I'm really sorry, I think we'd better act separately in the city......" Gu Huan's words and expressions were generous and decent, and at the same time, with innate arrogance, it seemed to have a sense of competition.
However, her arrogance is not unacceptable, probably because she has the temperament of a celebrity and noble girl all over her body, and she maintains a noble dignity from head to toe, so even if she is arrogant, it seems to be reasonable.
She has this kind of pride and corresponding strength, so this arrogance is not so annoying.
"This is natural," Wen Er nodded, he just rightly hugged Tang Xin sideways, and smiled indifferently, "Then we won't bother, this task is also very interesting, I hope everyone has fun......"
watched this pair of 25 well-configured and well-prepared teams disappear into the end of the street in the snowstorm......
Tang Xin opened his mouth and said: "Their task completion degree is obviously higher than ours. ”
"Well, I'm afraid they've been given specific quest hints, this time they came prepared, and obviously they're surprised, why we're here, which means that their method of entering this quest is unique in their cognition, and we'...... It seemed a little too casual for us to come in. Wen Er agreed.
That seems to be the case......
Both she and he simply used the portkey to teleport back to their apartment in the Land of Ice.
This rough house, leaking on all sides, even the neighbors can't stand it, and the broken apartment that was locked over was Tang Xin's first disappearance, she came to the Ice and Snow Country to do advanced tasks, and found out that some Ice and Snow King Rooms, and the secrets of the Frozen Throne were bought casually.
This method of using the apartment door key to enter the dungeon, it seems a little too unbelievable to say it~
"Anyway, are we sneaking behind them now? Still is...... Sneaking behind them? Tang Xin said embarrassedly.
"Heh, of course it's both......" Wen Er chuckled, he tilted his head and poured a bottle of full stealth potion, this is the best invisibility potion on the market at the moment, it can resist detection techniques below the grandmaster level, and hide the aura.
Tang Xin activated the invisibility technique that comes with the ring, but this stealth will be a little too simple under the professional detection magic, as long as the detection of the invisible magic hits nearby, or if there is an attack that hits her, it will be exposed, so she also poured a bottle of seven-colored anther Mo Lan, this potion is similar to the full stealth potion, which can increase the detection resistance, in addition to the ghost effect, it can also penetrate three frontal attacks with a ghost effect.
So when the name was spoken, the top strategists in Huaxia District, who were all shocked, and the top PK maniac, followed the team of Yufeng Hall so sneakily.
Tang Xin used to be a god-level assassin, and tracking and stealth was her old job, plus she also had Steve's concealment, invisibility, and Mo Lan's effects...... and all kinds of bonuses, and all the terrain on the street can be used as cover by her, this tracking is simply professional-level, and it is not leaky.
And Wen Er's actions made Tang Xin also impressed, only to see that he was just walking slowly in the middle of the road, not avoiding or dodging, but it was like air, as long as he didn't want to, no one could notice him. (To be continued......)
