Chapter 189: Old Acquaintances

On the Dolphin, the hostess, the captain and Karui are catching up.

The pirates drank and played darts and poker.

Tang Xin and Wen Er were discussing the news from Brother Drunk in the cabin.

Brother Drunk is worthy of being the Emperor of the Forum, and he is also the leader of the largest intelligence organization in the online game industry, the information he sent back was very similar, and it also made Tang Xin and Wen Er roughly figure out what was going on.

There are about 100,000 large and small guilds in the entire Huaxia District, with large guilds such as Dragon Soul and Tianxia Batu having more than 10,000 members, while small guilds range from a few dozen to one or two hundred.

Exclude guilds that are purely interested in tickets, interest groups, friends and family groups, soy sauce parties, or tour groups......

Conscientiously make a book, start a group, participate in the battlefield, and do guild tasks...... It's about seventy or eighty thousand.

In Brother Drunk's intelligence, 30% of the guilds have recently had turmoil in the change of power, and among the remaining 70%, many of them have conflicts of one kind or another, either for women or for interests.

But it is not easy to judge from such information which ones are the problems that originally existed and which ones are the hands of the big boss behind the scenes.

"How are you doing in Wolong Castle?" Tang Xin asked.

"The undercover agents have been exposed, and we are now cooperating with these undercover agents to put on a good show for the boss behind the scenes." Wen Er smiled lightly, "If it is according to the plan, when you finish the 1v1 group match, you will be able to see the ending." ”

"Did you lock on to the spy on the Dolphin?" Tang Xin hadn't forgotten that the Dolphin had been ambushed many times, and some of these pirates must have defected.

"There are three people I suspect. The first is Sidney, the ship's doctor, the second is Robin, the lookout, and the third is Marcus, the accountant. "Wen Er has been secretly watching for clues.

"Why?" Tang Xin asked.

"To be on the Dolphin. There are only a few ways for NPCs to spread the news to the outside world, one is to use carrier pigeons, the second is to use magic crystals, the third is to use flag language, and the fourth is to teleport array. ”

"Well, yes, NPCs don't have a communication system. It can only be transmitted by this means, but except for the teleportation array, we all know that no one uses it except for the two of us, other carrier pigeons and magic crystals. But everyone has it, so why lock it on these three people? ”

"I've observed pirates' routines, and most of them are bored except when they're sleeping and eating. So basically all the pirates would gather in the bar. Drinking, playing cards...... Moreover, the pirates who worked as sailors were basically with their companions all the time, and it was basically impossible to hide any secrets in such a small cabin. ”

Tang Xin nodded: "So Sidney Ship Doctor, he has his own ship doctor's studio, he is rarely seen, he can stay in the cabin for a long time and work alone without being suspicious;

Robin, the same lookout, had it his job to look around from the watchtower at the top of the sailboat, and how far others were from him. The nearest one will also be on the deck, but how many people on the deck will look up. He had the opportunity to use flags or carrier pigeons to deliver messages.

As for the accountant Marcus, like the ship's doctor, as the chief bookkeeper, he needs to record the use of various items on the ship, and also dispatch materials, his magic crystal is used most frequently, and in the process of such frequent use, mixed with other small actions, it is difficult to be detected, and he will not be suspicious. ”

Wen Er nodded: "Yes, if I am an enemy and I need an undercover agent, then I will also choose these three people as key points to break through, even if the other sailors buy it, their role is very limited." ”

"But that's just speculation, how do you get them to show their feet?"

"I've figured it out, but it's not the time yet." Wen Er looked inscrutable and smiled slightly, "Before I find them out, I also want to use them in turn to pass on some news to our enemies, if I use them well, I may be able to solve this trouble once and for all." ”

Tang Xin was confused when he heard it.

But she's used to it, this kind of brain-burning thing, let this guy with an explosive IQ deal with it.

She is responsible for robbing the house and the house, just charge into battle.

Tang Xin looked like a terrorist.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Tang Xin opened the door to see that it was Lady Anna.

The proprietress looked happy and excited, but with some deep sorrow: "The news brought by your master Karui is not optimistic, if we don't take action, the evil plan of the Brotherhood will succeed." ”

It turned out that the Brotherhood went to great lengths to imprison Karui in order to take advantage of the internal strife in the empire to empty the treasury of the entire Lionheart Empire. So they needed Kalu, one of the designers of the treasury security system, to study the way to crack it, and at the same time, the Brotherhood was ambitious to take this opportunity to overthrow the rule and establish a new regime, so they forced Karui to design a perfect city-breaking machine.

"I don't know their overall plan, but the map of the treasury treasure mechanism they asked me to study has been completed, and the city-breaking machinery, although it is still in the experimental stage, is also nearing the end." Karui shook his head and sighed.

"The ambitions of these people are really not small." Hodge said disdainfully, "Although it has nothing to do with us about the Empire, we will definitely avenge the revenge of this brotherhood." ”

"The members of the Brotherhood are all over the world, and their identities are very hidden, and if they can't be uprooted all at once, it will be just scratching the itch." Lady Anna is the former informant of the brotherhood, and her expression is not optimistic.

- The epic quest "Shadow of the Lionheart Empire" has entered the final stage, please ask whether to continue the mission, if not, you can get a rich experience reward report, the end of the task, if you continue, you can get the allegiance of the three protagonists, and get additional rich rewards, but the risk is extremely high, please choose carefully.

Wen Er and Tang Xin both heard this prompt.

The two looked at each other and smiled slightly.

Tang Xin made a choice - to continue.

Let's not say that the mission has been done for so long since it entered the game. If it's not done, it's really like a fish in the throat for a top player like them who is a perfectionist. Solving the huge quest chain was not just for the reward, but for the difficult challenge and the fun of successful challenge.

In addition, the reward of receiving the allegiance of the three main heroes is extremely tempting for them.

"The Brotherhood is a mysterious organization that has lasted for hundreds of years, and the identity of its leaders is very mysterious, it is a council of 10 founders or descendants of the founders, all of whom have different identities. No one knows their true identities to this day, only legends, some are imperial nobles, some are legendary mages, and some are even holy warriors......" Anna gave a general introduction. But they are all rumors and legends, and the bards in the tavern sing these stories.

Karui provided a new clue: "The Brotherhood originally seemed to be a secret organization set out by the Empire to carry out covert espionage and intelligence work and protect national security. But then. The relationship between the Brotherhood's top brass and the Imperial Crown broke down because of something, and the entire Brotherhood broke away from the state, which became what it is today. But the Brotherhood's secret power seems to me to be larger than the long-decaying Lionheart Empire, extending not to mention the entire southern continent, but also in several other continents. ”

"Something, do you know what it is?" Tang Xin asked.

"Probably related to the death of the paladin Andrew, but what exactly is it. No one can say for sure. Karui shook his head.

After a few more discussions about the secrets of the Brotherhood, they finally came to the conclusion that the Brotherhood was not just about money and power. The holy warrior Andrew was necessarily a key being in it.

But Mrs. Catherine and her husband's family, who are the only ones who have a relationship with Andrew, have died tragically on the island, and it is really difficult to find out the truth about Andrew's death a hundred years ago.

In Tang Xin's opinion, it may be more difficult than destroying the Brotherhood's plan.

Because Tang Xin and Wen Er, who still have the epic task of "The Mystery of Abel", already have a clue about the plan to sabotage the rebellion.

If it's well designed, maybe the two long-standing epic quests, "The Mystery of Able" and "Shadows of the Lionheart's Empire", can be solved at the same time.

But the Holy Samurai Andrew is undoubtedly the more secret information in this already strange and unpredictable epic mission, just like the hidden mission in the hidden mission.

You can imagine how difficult it is to solve the puzzle, but on the other hand, if you really solve the mystery, the benefits obtained will definitely make people wake up with a smile in their dreams.

But for a while, I really didn't have a clue, so I could only start with the parties a hundred years ago.

But before that......

- The system reminds you, dear players, the first game of the 1v1 group stage will start in 10 minutes, please prepare in advance. Note: Lord-type players can carry up to 100 troops.

The group round is played simultaneously by all participants.

The number of qualifiers in each group is 10, and the winner is produced by the point ranking in the form of wheel battle, and if the points are the same, there will be an extra game, and 1v1 has only 10 groups in total, which means that today's game is over, and you can compete for the top 100 in China.

In order to determine the winner, all the matches are played in small rings, the qualifiers have tested their mastery of different terrains, and the group matches are hard-fought battles.

Tang Xin's luck is good, along the way, she met players with average strength, she chopped melons and vegetables with a winning record, temporarily tied for the first place in the group, and the next game is the battle with the tied first.

Count down five seconds to enter the map.

Tang Xin smiled, and the one standing opposite turned out to be an old acquaintance wolf totem.

"Hello, little wolf, don't come unharmed!" Tang Xin greeted with a smile.

"Humph!" When the wolf totem saw Tang Xin, he was angry, and he didn't even bring the elegant mask that he usually wore in front of the younger brothers and outsiders, "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up." ”

It seems that he was miserable by Tang Xin and Wen Er before, and he hasn't recovered yet.

Remembering that Tang Xin tossed him to death with a dozen traps and took away one of his epic boots, he never wanted to see this woman again.

"Ah, I haven't seen you for so long, don't you want to catch up with old friends?" Tang Xin pretended to be resentful, "What has the little wolf been busy with lately?" Still doing the Brotherhood's mission? ”

"Hmph......" Wolf Totem glanced at her, not wanting to talk to her.

He picked up the dagger and rushed up.

But Tang Xin already understood, their ice wolf must still be continuing the task, and it was not the supporting role that was led away before, but it seemed that they had entered the core level of the brotherhood's mission.

Alas...... Poor wolf totem, think about the opportunity to bully him again, and at the same time have the opportunity to bully the ice wolf when bullying the fraternity.

She felt a little sorry for him.

The battle ended quickly, not to mention that the wolf totem was not Tang Xin's opponent before, after Tang Xin had a few more skills to control the zhì system, and the reincarnation dance steps also reached the full completion, he was simply played to death.

This time, Tang Xin didn't have any tricks, and he showed off the wolf totem in pure show.

"Bye-bye, I hope you can have less resentment this time, I'm not just playing with animal traps." Tang Xin smiled and said goodbye to the white light that disappeared from the map.

Tang Xin still has ten games left in the group, but she looked at the scores, and she has now qualified early.

Even if the next ten races are all abandoned, she is definitely in the top 10 of the standings.

However, PK madman Tang Xin will not let go of any PK opportunities.

Her opponent in the next round is also idle at this time.

Count down to five seconds

Yo...... This time it's someone I know again, but I don't have much contact.

The person on the other side is the castle sunset, the vice president of the crystal.

Although Tang Xin has a good impression of her, but now that the crystal has been confirmed to be a pawn of the boss behind the scenes, even everyone with the crystal is on the opposite side of Tang Xin.

The slanting sun in the city obviously recognized Tang Xin.

But the friendship between the two is very shallow, and now there is a faint tendency of antagonism, and there is nothing to say for a while.

Tang Xin fought with her, she originally thought that the intelligence value of the slanting sun in the city was off the charts, and the force value should be good, but when she fought, she found that it was just the level of an ordinary master, and the reaction speed and operation were not too good.

It didn't take long for the battle to end.

"ASN Group, ...... you" The slanting sun in the city stared at Tang Xin's eyes, but before he finished speaking, he had already emptied the blood groove and teleported out.

Tang Xin cared very much about what she said.

ASN Group, Tang Xin, who studied finance, started as a hedge fund and has an industry spanning the financial industry, insurance industry, consulting industry, and service industry...... What does she mean by referring to ASN Group?

Could it be that ASN Group is the boss behind the scenes?

Or is it a trap that Crystal wants to shoot at her, or is it the intention of the slanting sun in the city itself?

Is it trying to disrupt the sight of Tang Xin and them, or is it a breakthrough to find out who is behind the scenes?

After Tang Xin told Wen Er about this, Wen Er was thoughtful.

"I'll check it out, you said you have a good impression of the sunset in the city, right?" Wen Er asked.

"Ah...... It's just intuition, I haven't been in contact with her, I just think she's quite smart, a bit like you, but I don't know, you don't have to worry about me. Tang Xin hurriedly waved his hand, not wanting to interfere with Wen Er's judgment.

"No, intuition...... Sometimes it's important, and I know it. Wen Er smiled slightly. (To be continued......)
