The sudden appearance of the system prompt and the system announcement all indicate one thing, the Dragon Island Lord's statement that the island is about to be destroyed is true, and he is not joking!

After hearing the system announcement and system prompts, the players who had already gained something were in a hurry to leave, but those NPCs were skeptical and couldn't make up their minds.

In fact, most people are still greedy for martial arts on the stone wall, and would rather risk their lives than leave.

And if the NPCs don't go, the players certainly can't go.

Although the boat is parked on the shore, sailing is no joke. None of the players present had learned anything related to sailing, and even if they were given a boat, they would not be able to drive it.

As for the reactions of those NPC masters, the two island owners naturally expected it, but they heard the dragon island master say again: "If you don't believe it, you might as well go to the stone room to have a look, all the rooms have collapsed, the stone wall has been destroyed, even if the earthquake can't afford it, the volcano won't erupt, and there is nothing to do to stay here." ”

Those who heard that the stone wall had been destroyed, they were all shocked, and they rushed out of the hall one after another, and ran towards the stone room behind the hall. However, since the lord of Dragon Island dared to say this, he was naturally prepared, and he didn't know whether those stone chambers were destroyed by the earthquake or blown up by the people of Xia Ke Island in other ways, anyway, when these people rushed over, they saw that all the stone chambers had indeed collapsed, and the maps on the walls were all destroyed.

Some of them guessed that the situation was wrong, and suspected that the destruction of the stone chamber was obviously man-made, not caused by an earthquake, so they raised their arms and shouted, and rushed back to the hall in groups to question the lord of the second island of Longmu.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the hall, he heard a loud cry, and saw the two island masters of Longmu sitting with their eyes closed, and a group of disciples surrounding the two of them, prostrate themselves on the ground, and cry loudly.

However, when the two island owners competed with Ah Chong for internal strength before, they had exhausted their essence, and they had both sat down at this moment.

At this point, the group of NPCs who like to toss finally gave up the matter of investigating the destruction of the stone room, and seeing the earthquake again, they could only drive their own boats and leave the knight island with the players who had been waiting for a long time.

After the ship traveled a certain distance, he suddenly heard a faint roar from the rear, and turned his head to see that there was already thick smoke and flames on the Xia Ke Island, but it was the previous prediction of the Dragon Island Lord, which had completely become a reality!

Seeing this scene, Tang Sancai in the team couldn't help but say: "The leylines are out of trouble and the world is upgraded, what kind of changes will it bring to this game world?" ”

Ye Weiming shook his head lightly when he heard this, and said, "The change has already begun?" ”

Everyone was stunned at the same time, and Ye Weiming swept his gaze to the aura fluctuations on the NPPC's body gathered on the other side, that is, the moment the flames began to erupt, some subtle changes had already taken place in their bodies. ”

"According to my judgment, the level and strength of every NPC here have improved compared to before."

"It's just that now the world upgrade has just begun, and these so-called masters near us can only lose a group of NPCs in the main world, whose strength is in the middle of the stream, so the range of their improvement is also very limited."

"If you don't pay attention, you won't be able to see the changes in them."

At this time, Jiang Jinjiu immediately grasped the point of the problem: "That is to say, from now on, the strength of all NPCs will have a qualitative improvement in a short period of time, and many NPCs who have been able to fight before may not be able to fight in the future?" ”

Ye Weiming nodded: "Probably this is the case, but as said in the system announcement, after the NPCs are upgraded, the gains from winning them will be even more abundant, and in general, it is definitely a good thing for us." ”

"But if any of you have some important tasks on your hands, I suggest you complete them as soon as possible, before the level of the target boss rises up."

"After all, just from this trip to Xia Ke Island, the improvement you have received in terms of strength is much faster than that of fellow NPCs. But after a long time, I didn't dare to make any promises. ”

Hearing this, the friends in the team nodded one after another, and began to think about what tasks they had in the current situation, which they needed to complete as soon as possible.

At this time, Ye Weiming suddenly looked around and asked suspiciously, "What about March, have you seen her?" ”

"I'm back." As he spoke, he saw March walking out of the cabin unhurriedly, and said, "Just now, I sent a flying pigeon to send a message, saying that I was coming to pick us up." I just went to the senior lady in charge of the helm to confirm the specific route and landing location, and I have already replied to the message. ”

"You're coming to pick us up?" Ye Weiming was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then couldn't help but say helplessly: "It seems that I have to prepare a big meal to repay this hospitality." ”

Dao Mei immediately crossed her waist next to her: "Why, you give face so much, and you come all the way to meet us, do you feel wronged when you cook a meal?" It's a big deal, just a few of us can help out. ”

Xiaoqiao and March nodded one after another, and Ye Weiming hurriedly raised his hand to surrender.

After some jokes, Ye Weiming's expression finally returned to seriousness: "You can wait until tomorrow for dinner, so give me some time to prepare the ingredients." Now I have a very important task to complete immediately, and in March, I need your help. ”

March thought of his series of operations on Xia Ke Island, so he asked, "Are you going to Bears Ears Mountain?" ”

Ye Weiming nodded: "That's right, it's Bears Ears Mountain." As early as when I was in my 20s, I promised Ah Chong to help him find his mother and Ah Huang. Ah Huang's task has already been completed, but the other task is still hanging until now, and this time it just happened to come together, and it was time to end this task, which had been delayed for more than a year. ”

The ship continued to sail forward, and gradually, the island of Xia Ke, shrouded in fire and smoke, had gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

At this time, he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, and then saw Ah Chong running out of the cabin sweating, and shouted at Bai Zizai, who was embarrassed by the sinking of Xia Ke Island: "Oops, terrible! Grandpa, this ...... What time is it today...... Beginning of the month...... What is the first time? ”

Bai Zizi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "What is the first day of the month?" ”

On the other side, an NPC who was talking to Bai Zizi was on his fingers, and then replied, "We spent one hundred and sixteen days on the island. Today is not the sixth day of the fourth month, but the seventh day of the fourth month. ”

Hearing "One Hundred and Sixteen Days", all the players present couldn't help but feel a little absurd. After all, from the time they landed on Xia Ke Island to the time they left, it was only half a day that had passed for the player, and they really couldn't empathize with the "one hundred and sixteen days" in the NPC's mouth.

Hearing the ambiguous words "the sixth or seventh day of the first month of April", Ah Chong and Bai Zizi suddenly changed color at the same time, and then exclaimed in unison: "It's April? ”

The NPC replied as a matter of course: "It's April, of course!" ”

Bai Zizai beat his chest and shouted: "Bitter, bitter!" ”

Hearing Bai Zizai shouting bitterly there, and Ah Chong on the side also put on a look of the sky falling at the same time, all the players around couldn't help but flash a word in their minds at the same time - mission!

Realizing that there was a task to take, March, who was a mission maniac, immediately stepped forward and asked, "Why is Mr. Bai complaining?" If there is something that can be said, let's think of a way together, and maybe there will be some way to solve it. ”

Bai Zizi just shook his head and screamed, but did not answer. On the contrary, Ah Chong on the side said truthfully: "Grandma said that if Grandpa Bai doesn't go back on the eighth day of the first month of March, she will throw herself into the sea and die." Ah Xiu also said that he wanted to throw himself into the sea......"

Hearing Ah Chong say this, the players around him couldn't help but look at each other.

The old lady said that she was going to jump into the sea on the eighth day of the first month of March, and now the timeline of these NPCs has reached the eighth day of the fourth month, I am afraid that the "grandma" and "Ah Xiu" in Ah Chong's mouth are already so cold that they are so dead that even the "Divine Illumination Sutra" can't save them.

As players, they are not an omnipotent system. What can be done about this kind of thing?

This time, even a few friends around Ye Weiming were confused.

After all, in Yin Bu's strategy, it was only mentioned that after Ah Chong learned to perform chivalrous skills, he rescued Shi Xiaocui and Bai Axiu who intended to jump into the sea on the way back.

Could it be that on the island of Xia Ke, a player's behavior has a butterfly effect, which leads to a change in the plot line?

Just when everyone was in shock, Ye Weiming was just counting on his fingers, and then Zhengse said: "No, today is not the seventh day of April, but the eighth day of March!" ”

When he heard the wine, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother Night actually knows this?" ”

After all, for the player, the NPC's time is completely a mystery, maybe a minute ago it was the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and a minute later, in another character scene, you can sit down with other NPCs to eat moon cakes and admire the moon.

Therefore, the player's definition of the NPC's "world" time is completely smooth according to the plot line. Although this is very unscientific, it is the only law that has been traced so far.

And Ye Weiming suddenly opened his mouth to correct the NPC's concept of time, which naturally surprised the other players around him.

At this time, he heard the NPC on the side say dissatisfiedly: "This night young man, I admit that you can fight to a draw with the two island masters, and you must have martial arts." But when it comes to mathematics, I really don't dare to compliment it. ”

"Don't fight me about this." Ye Weiming said confidently: "My statement is not from simple calculations in mathematics but from the calendar, do you understand?" ”

"In other words, everything recorded on the Yellow Calendar can be summarized by simple calculations."

"And if you have a yellow calendar with you, it is not difficult to find that this year is a leap February, and there are two Februarys, so today is the eighth day of the third month. If our boat had gone faster, we might have been able to save people in time. ”

Hearing Ye Weiming's words, Ah Chong and Bai Zizai were suddenly shocked, the former immediately stepped forward to thank him, and the latter couldn't wait to get into the cabin, urging the person in charge of the helm to speed up the journey.

Bite! Because you accurately predicted the right time at this moment, Bai Zizi and Ah Chong regained hope and obtained a hidden reward: 1 million experience points, 100,000 cultivation points.

As Ah Chong sincerely thanked Ye Weiming, a task reward that was not very rich appeared. In this regard, Ye Weiming didn't care much, but the system prompt followed by the next second shocked all players.

Bite! Triggers the temporary story mission "Save Two Lives".

Save two lives

Granny Shi, the wife of Bai Zizai of the Snow Mountain Sect, and her granddaughter Bai Axiu once said that if you can't see Bai Zizai return today, you will jump into the sea today. Granny Shi has a hot temper and does what she says, saying that if she jumps into the sea today, she will definitely not wait until tomorrow.

To save two innocent lives, do what you can to prevent this tragedy from happening.

Mission Level: Seven stars

Quest rewards: Depending on the player's performance in the quest, as long as it helps save people, they can get the corresponding quest rewards. The highest task reward is a random inheritance of the first twenty-three martial arts in the "Chivalrous Journey"!

Task Punishment: None

Duration: None

(Note: This task does not need to be taken, anyone who participates in the rescue can get the corresponding task reward according to the amount of contribution.) ）

……

Seeing this sudden mission, all the players present were all excited and happy.

After all, most of the players who can get on this return ship alive have already received a part of the inheritance of the magic skills of "Chivalry and Travel", and fully appreciate the benefits. Even if you don't get the inheritance yourself, you have heard about the power of this inheritance from other players.

At this moment, when they heard that there was still a chance to get another part of the inheritance of the magic skills of "Chivalrous Journey", how could they not be excited?

Soon, active players rush into the cabin, ready to take over the ship's work, using their far more than ordinary physical strength to paddle and speed up the ship.

In this way, you may not be able to get the final task reward, but the task hint has not already said that as long as you contribute, there will be benefits.

Instead of pondering what you don't have, it's better to start small and try to count a little bit.

Of course, compared to those who volunteered to do coolies, more players remained on the deck, ready to try to help save people at critical moments.

It is not possible to say which of these two options is better, and the key depends on the player's self-positioning and choice.

Seeing that there were enough players rushing into the cabin, Ye Weiming and his friends didn't join in the excitement. Instead, they obediently stayed on deck and watched the situation develop.

After the ship was taken over by the players, it began to accelerate gradually, and after about half an hour, it was already late in the evening. In the distance, there was a black line where the sea and the sky met, and everyone saw the land on the coast of the East China Sea.

And Bai Zizai, Ah Chong, and those players who are waiting to complete the task are holding their breath and observing the situation ahead by themselves.

As the ship got closer and closer, everyone looked at it and saw the scene on the shore, as if it was the same as when they left, with rows of palms on the beach, and the cliff on the right hand protruding from the sea, and the three coconut trees on the cliff were like three slender figures.

The ship kept sailing towards the shore, and suddenly a call came from the cliff, and everyone looked at the cliff, and saw two figures, one gray and one white, jumping from the cliff into the sea.

It's Granny Shi and Bai Axiu!

It seems that even if the players in the cabin do their best to help, they can't change the inherent plot after all, and this old and young woman still needs a hero to save them after all in order to survive.

However, at this moment, the ship is about fifty meters away from the cliff horizontally, and it is as high as sixty or seventy meters longitudinally.

And now, how many of these ordinary players can have the terrifying strength of the world's five peers?

Just when everyone was at a loss, two figures, one black and one red, had already shot out of the deck at the same time before Ah Chong, it was Ye Weiming and Dao Mei.

At the same time as his body jumped up, Ye Weiming's mind moved, and the "Celestial Dragon Wings" behind him immediately opened up into a pair of steel wings, dragging him forward.

"Mamaha!"

In the midst of the shouting, I saw that the sword sister raised her hand, and a red dot had flown out of her hand, and quickly turned into a brown falcon, leading her left hand towards Bai Axiu, one of the two girls who fell off the cliff, and flew in reverse.

The two of them scrambled to be the first, but neither of them would give in to the matter of saving people.

And those other players who knew that they were not capable of participating in this competition couldn't help but speculate in their hearts at this time, who could finally save the two people who were about to fall into the sea and get the inheritance reward of "Chivalrous Journey", and even began to cheer silently for the winner in their minds.

Most of the wolf friends still hope that the fair-skinned and beautiful knife girl can win this competition. Of course, there are always exceptions to everything, and there are still some people with a sense of justice who are looking forward to winning in the night.

For example, Xiaoqiao, for example, March, and ...... Well, other people's opinions don't matter.

Just when everyone was nervously paying attention to the changes in the "battle situation", they suddenly heard a carving sound in front of them.

Everyone looked for prestige, but saw that a yellow figure had jumped down from the cliff, and at the same time summoned a white eagle with all the feathers all over the body, and rode on the back of the white eagle very skillfully.
