134 Rumors of ruins
"What is the current situation...... Is it? What are you looking for those useless things for, and you can solve the problem of settling down first......"
“...... That's right...... Do you have any ideas? Although I am not there, I still advise you, it is better to be nosy......"
"Forget it, you can do whatever you want, but I still hope that when I go back, I can see the name of our adventure group and register it on the association's billboard......
"Do you see the broken mountains? It's not very normal for people from the rivers and lakes to appear in the capital...... What the? And Christine? What is she doing there......"

Closing the chat window, Duan Qing leaned back and looked at the dark roof in the game cabin.
Since he and Mengzhu separated, in order to be able to keep in touch, Duan Qing had to add friends in the game of the two of them, and then used the ID in the game to continue to exchange each other's information offline. This proposal was originally put forward by the little girl, mainly because she lacked confidence, so she wanted to seek Duan Qing's remote support. However, Duan Qing generally doesn't go offline, so in the past few days, they rarely have the opportunity to chat, and they also use messages to inform each other of their status, Duan Qing told the two of them that they had arrived at the foot of Falling Star Mountain, and Mengzhu was gradually understanding the current situation in Tania City, and there were some things that were still more concerning.
Of course, the biggest news is the state of the war and the changes it has brought about.
According to Mengzhu's information, the city of Tania was bustling with people before they arrived, but as the war approached, some residents also considered moving to safe places, and many of the originally lively streets and open shops were closed with their departure. As a result, some of the big guild forces in the city have also suffered, but they have no time to take care of it now - the major guild forces led by the rivers and lakes and the Sword of Justice have begun to put their full strength on the front line, trying to stabilize the battle line in the game before the start of the League Cup, and not drive away the Imperial forces, at least they should be blocked outside Talom County for a while, so as to spend the game stably. In this case, those other things were naturally beyond their concern, and the turmoil in the city, the loss of some money, and the development of new adventure places were not the focus of their current considerations.
And this is also somewhat related to the structure of the League Cup - that is the explanation that Duan Qing once made when Mengzhu was a little puzzled by the nervousness of the players in the city.
"In the early days of the League Cup, you can also ask the game company to open up a venue in the game world for players to participate, and because the game company is still operating the background, many convenient functions can be used, such as field construction, field teleportation, rule design, referees, etc...... However, with the upgrading of technology and the independent computing of the game world, these things cannot be realized by game companies, so if they want to hold games in the game, the people in the alliance must reach an agreement with the game company, so that they can move an exact 'controllable world' according to the internal design of the game. ”
"If you don't mind, it's okay to understand the world as a private server."
"This small game world is specially designed for the game, so many things can be removed, many functions that are not in the game can also be added, when players participate in the game, they only need to connect to the server in the game cabin, and then follow the arrangement of the alliance, from the beginning to the end, and the functions are complete, all for the purpose of the game, and even the final reward distribution is convenient and fast...... As for the details of that world, the detailed rules of the game, that's something that will only be known at that time. ”
"The league seems to have been doing this for the past few years, but there is a huge problem with it...... Take the free world as an example, if all the big guilds go to the tournament and use their own data to enter another server, then the original free world will still run unchanged, if something big happens in it...... There's no way they can manage it. ”
For example...... The front line of the empire suddenly exerted its strength and hit the city of Tania. ”
No matter how real the game world is, the game world is still made after all, so some technical problems can eventually be solved in the creation of human beings, but only the contestants themselves can't solve them - no matter how powerful your skills are, you are also a person, how can you use things such as doppelgangers.
"The League Cup registration is imminent, whether it is Jianghu or Wings of Freedom, or several other big guilds, or even some wild people without guild power, they all have to solve the mundane things in this game world before the game, otherwise...... It's hard to say what happened then. ”
When writing this text, Duan Qing's mind was not thinking about the difficult scenes that those big guilds might encounter, nor the melancholy experience in his heart when he had experienced the changes in the league game, but the various changes in the game of free world and the various impacts it bringed. After all, this game is different from the games he has encountered before, so it is possible that something earth-shattering will really happen during the game. But these things were only his feelings at best, and he couldn't say for a moment what the differences were, what would lead to the changes, as if he had just taken the first step in a survival game - surviving, and not exploring what the world was all about.
This feeling is very unpleasant, but the foggy experience also makes veteran players like Duan Qing feel excited, after all, wanting to find a game that can arouse their own interest is a state that every player is pursuing.
After checking the information about Falling Star Mountain again, Duan Qing reluctantly closed the web page, and then entered the game - there is very little information about Falling Star Mountain in the major forums, and it is all old yellow calendar, I don't know what players left behind when they explored this high mountain long ago, and there is no updated news after that. Maybe it's because they died on the mountainside, and there was no breakthrough after that, and the players after that didn't explore anything new, so it was over.
However, there is still some information that is worth using, such as the one that Duan Qing is about to tell the others.
"That stupid big one...... What about Nantieshan? ”
"When you say that, be careful that the other party will beat you up first if they hear it."
The place where Duan Qing is on the line is a rocky area formed by the accumulation of huge rubble. At this time, this place is still very lively, because most people who go to the Anchidal Mountains will choose this place to enter. Many players choose to do their final rearmaments here, and many do business here, selling adventurers what they may have forgotten to bring, as well as ...... Possible information.
At this time, Nantie Mountain was in the midst of that rocky thicket, asking players for some useful news.
"I found some information on the Internet, and one of them was like this." Looking at the figure of the black-armored man not far away, Duan Qing still quietly explained to the Snow Spirit Phantom Ice next to him first: "It is said that not long after entering from this rocky mouth, you can find a mountain guard's hut in the corner of the mountain road, and from there you can receive a task, it seems to help him clean up the mountain road or something......
"I know that mission." Xue Lingphantom Ice softly interrupted Duan Qing's introduction: "Or ...... Anyone who has been here knows it. ”
"Uh......" Duan Qing scratched his nose a little embarrassed.
"I want to ...... That Nantie Mountain, probably also knows. Without giving up the intention of striking the other party, Xue Lingphantom Ice raised a hand and pointed at the big man patrolling left and right in front of him with his ice-like fingers.
"Okay, okay, I know, isn't it just outdated information......" Duan Qing waved his hands, and then turned his head to look at the situation in front of him: "Then what can we find out here, the information of the monster?" ”
"As far as I know, earth elements are invisible." Snow Spirit Phantom Ice shook his head, and his voice became a little low: "All elemental creatures are like this, their attacks are also ever-changing, the only thing we can know is ...... The attributes of their attacks are all earth. ”
"Oh, what a reasonable statement."
“....... The most powerful enemies that players are now known to have are elemental creatures. The woman pulled the corners of her cloak closer and hid her figure even deeper: "And because of the intangibility of their bodies, physical attacks have little effect on them. ”
"Hey, what are we going to do up the hill then? Let's hurry home. Duan Qing said with a snarled voice.
"Hehehehe, don't worry." Snow Spirit Phantom Ice covered his mouth and laughed: "We won't encounter the earth element so quickly, after all, it is a high-level rare monster, even if it is the Falling Star Mountain, we have to go to the depths to encounter it." And ......," she said, "these elemental creatures are a fortune, huh?" ”
"Oh? What do they drop? ”
"Elemental Core." The woman whispered, "Although the odds are not high, as long as ...... With the right attack, we can get our hands on these things, they're the mage's favorite, and if you take them to the Mage Council, they'll buy them for a high price. ”
"Magicians are rich people, in every game."
"Huh......" Duan Qing shook his arm: "It's time to do a big job." ”
Or...... You can also keep it for yourself. After a pause, Xue Lingphantom Ice introduced: "As far as I know, players who choose a magic profession can get some benefits from these cores, what are the benefits...... I can't say, but it should be useful, so our guild has collected a lot of this kind of stuff, although it ...... It was received from another player. ”
"Now if there is a guild that can sweep through places like Falling Star Mountain, they can dominate the League Cup." Duan Qing exhaled and blew on the back of his hand: "What are you still doing in a war, with such a strong strength, grab the Mage Council first...... Or buy it with wealth. ”
"Heh, how is this possible......" The woman in the black cloak shook her head.
"How is it impossible, this is a free world, as long as there is a dream......"
"You're back!"
When Duan Qing just wanted to continue bragging, a huge black figure suddenly blocked the light in front of him, and he turned his head to see that it was Nantie Mountain, which was still swaying in front of him just now.
"I've been waiting for you to go online for a long time, how about it? Did you find any information? ”
"Nope." Duan Qing shook his head decisively: "You also know what you found." ”
"......Shh Forget it, as long as you have me. Nan Tieshan looked the two up and down for a moment, and then suddenly became mysterious: "Listen, I just heard a message from them, it may be a hidden mission......"
"Hidden mission? Over here? ”
"Don't worry, listen to what I've done." For the sake of the other party's novice, Nan Tieshan decided not to care about the other party's fault for interrupting his speech: "I heard that in this mountain range, there is a relic hidden, which is left by the ancient magic empire...... Hey, what's that look on your face? ”
"Huh? Yes...... It's okay, it's okay. Duan Qing, who was frowning, hurriedly waved his hand, indicating that he had no opinion, in fact, his head grew when he heard the word "Ancient Magic Empire" - thinking of what happened to him in the Emerald Forest, he really didn't want to let himself have anything to do with those things.
“...... So you newcomers, you just lack courage, what are you worried about with me? Nan Tie Shan patted his chest: "In Xia Wanfu is invincible to Nan Tie Mountain, the ruins of the ancient magic empire, how can you stop my footsteps......"
"That ......" Duan Qing scratched his head: "Is what those people told you true?" ”
"Of course it's true! And someone is already on departure! Nan Tieshan said loudly: "So what are we waiting for...... Belch. ”
Realizing that his voice was too loud, he cautiously looked around, and then shrunk his neck, matching his burly figure, this action was particularly funny: "So we don't have to wait any longer, let's go." ”
He beckoned to the two men, then turned around and walked towards the trail behind the rocks. Duan Qing and Xue Ling Phantom Ice glanced at each other, and then shook their heads a little helplessly.
"Is there really one?" Duan Qing first asked, "Ruins or something......
"Even if there were, it should have been dug up by the previous players." The woman replied in a low voice, "Unless there are special precautions that can prevent outsiders from entering ......"
"Like the Emerald Tower?"
“...... I don't know. Perhaps because he didn't want to mention the experience on the tower, Xue Lingphantasm stomped his feet a little irritably: "Anyway, we're going up the mountain, so it's okay to stop by and take a look." ”
She walked forward.
Not far away, the chatter and noise of the surrounding players were still around, but Duan Qing, who had just been online for a short time, had no time to pay attention. He hurriedly followed the footsteps of the two people in front of him, and then regained the posture and smile of his follower.
"That...... Big brother, are we going up the mountain like this? Nothing more needs to be prepared......"
"I've bought everything, don't worry, you don't have to spend money, even if it's my care for the newcomer."
"Wow, big brother is really rich, but we haven't seen the ruins, what good things are in it?"
"Of course there are good things, but I don't know what they are, so I'll know when I go...... No, I'll tell you first, if you find a place, you have to hand over everything to me first, and I'll see the situation and then decide how to distribute it, don't worry! I, Nantieshan, am not a villain, and I won't pull your benefits. ”
"Well, of course I believe Big Brother, but how did we find that place?"
"Well, those guys just gave me some hints......
The voices of the two people faded away, gradually disappearing into the rubble behind the crowd.
