Chapter 541: Civil Strife (First Update)

The black stones lay in the dimly lit underground passages, which were the only way to the Crossroads Stronghold, and in order to prevent the players from sniping at them, Arthur and the others did not choose to be Beetlemen, but rode themselves into bipedal birds, and passed through the passage full of wild monsters through the remote road to the Crossroads Stronghold.

Because of Arthur's carefulness, the journey was also very safe, and they didn't encounter any enemies, just some dire wolves and spiders, which suddenly appeared, but this could not cause any damage to them who had been in a hundred battles, although there were only a dozen people in the entourage, but each of them was the elite of the elite.

Not to mention, they also arranged a large number of people to act as scouts around to check for danger, and it took them a whole day to finally walk through the journey from the dungeon of the Eternal Realm to the crossroads stronghold, from here further, there was no fork in the road, but a straight passage directly to the Dark Gate.

Normally, this path would be very dangerous, but Arthur and the others did not have any solution, and after a period of careful consideration, they decided to make some disguises.

"Everyone's get their masks, I bought them from Winterfell at a great price."

Umegawa Kuko said as he handed out the mask in his hand to everyone, this is a camouflage mask made of magic, which can change people's appearance in a short period of time, just like the disguise technique in martial arts, but it is more magical than the disguise technique in martial arts, because he has changed not only his appearance, but even his figure, the smell on his body and other characteristics have changed,

"You sent me a goblin version, right?"

Burning chest hair asked Umegawa Kuko with the mask in his hand, and he put his mask on his face, and soon turned into a goblin, and the huge size of the original beastman was also concealed.

The other people were also similar to the burning chest hair, and after putting the mask in their hands on their faces, they immediately changed into the racial appearance set by the mask, etc., and even after the little goblin brought it on, after drinking it, it suddenly turned into a tall beastman, and the original huge body could not be seen at all that it was originally a goblin.

Not only that, but the extra body is not empty air, and when you touch it, you can feel the soft touch of the body, and all this is the effect created by magic.

"This mask only has an hour's time, which means we have to pass through the Dark Door within an hour, or we'll be exposed when the time effect is over."

Speaking is that Umegawa Kuko, who has turned into a goblin, can recognize him as Umegawa Kuko because of the green character on the top of his head.

"Only an hour? How can it! ”

The burning chest hair immediately said, and the hoe on the side followed:

"It can still be done, if we take the shuttle."

"Shuttle? What shuttle? ”

It was the goblin who was questioning.

"It's the Beetlemon, which goes back and forth between the Dark Gate and the Crossroads stronghold, every 10 minutes, and if we take the Beetlemon, we can get to the Dark Gate in 30 minutes, much faster than we used to do it ourselves."

Sylvanas said so, and the frangipani who had been following the players didn't say anything from beginning to end, in fact, since he walked out of the dungeon of the Eternal Kingdom, Frangipani didn't say anything, it looked as if he had completed his mission and didn't plan to communicate with the players, but it was a little goblin, and he couldn't finish asking.

Now that the plan has been decided, the next thing is the implementation of the problem, Arthur and the people who have completed the disguise quickly move towards the crossroads stronghold, as for the green characters on the top of their heads are also very easy to solve, that is, everyone wears a high hat, which can perfectly cover the green characters, so that it can also hide the problem that there are no green characters on the top of the goblins and frangipani.

It's just that so many people are wearing tall hats, which looks a little strange, and the strange players are not only a few of them, there are still a lot of people wearing their clothes, and many players are quite interested in appearance, if they don't have any beautiful clothes, they will even use paint to smear their weapons and armor.

The plan was perfect, and entering the crossroads stronghold didn't attract anyone's attention until they came to the Beetlemon's site.

At the shuttle bus station of the beetle, there are hundreds of players standing, each of them is fully armed, looking at other players with vigilant eyes, they will not do anything special to the players, just see any suspicious people or the words on the top of their heads, the Pioneer Alliance Guild and the Alliance Guild, they will go up and ask, at the crossroads they have no way to attack other personnel, but it doesn't mean that they don't have any way, if they see suspicious people, They will arrange for people to follow them on the beetle's bus.

Sometimes a shuttle bus can even be packed with their people, and of course the shuttle bus is also a safe area, but when they get off the bus at the Dark Gate, they can immediately attack, regardless of whether the other party is innocent or not, and no matter how he justifies himself in the car, as long as it is possible to participate in the adventure mission, they will attack indiscriminately.

Of course, this kind of behavior has also caused the disgust of some other guilds or casual players, but several guilds led by Chang'an City that are hostile to the Pioneer Alliance have never taken into account the feelings of other players, and their president and the boss behind the scenes are said to be very rich, and this kind of rich person doesn't need to pay attention to the feelings of ordinary people at all, they can buy a large number of union members as long as they use money, no matter what kind of online game it is.

The Pioneer Alliance didn't take any countermeasures, after all, there was nothing to gain from them in the safe zone, and most of the members of the Pioneer Alliance and their alliance guilds couldn't fight, and now they were all in the Dark Gate to answer Arthur and them, because the real tough battle must be the one that passed through the Dark Gate, and the others just need to sneak over slowly.

Arthur, who was leaning against the wall, glanced at the station, then turned around and said to the man behind him:

"I'm afraid we're going to go separately, and if so many people go together, we're likely to be stopped by these people."

Indeed, as Arthur said, each of them wears high hats, and it must look much more pity than the average player, these people guarding the Beetle Beast Station will definitely interrogate them, if they are not willing to take off their hats and show their names, they will probably be targeted, and Arthur is not very manpower around now, if he wants to call for help, he will also be exposed here, and the enemies waiting at the dark gate will definitely be more guarded.

If possible, Arthur still hopes to avoid fighting as much as possible, and pass through the dark door without being aware of it.

After the plan was decided, Arthur divided the team into two groups, and took only Umegawa Kuko, Ho He, Sylvanas, Burning Chest Hair, and Rain Tea, as well as the target of this mission, Turtle Frangipani, and His Royal Highness the Fairy Princess on a shuttle.

The others went ahead first, taking another bus, and the purpose of these people was to attract their attention, and they were determined not to take off their hats, so that more people would be attracted to them, so that Arthur would be much less stressed, and if they could, it would be better to make some big noises at the station.

And these players also completed the task very well, when they appeared at the station with high hats, they immediately attracted the attention of those hostile censors, they surrounded the past, and there was a quarrel between the two sides, but because it was a safe zone, they had no way to fight, and a group of quarrelling people quickly rushed to the beetle's shuttle, and the beetlebeast was crowded with people, and then left in a big way.

The station, which was originally surrounded by hundreds of people, was empty all of a sudden, in addition to watching the lively people, the number of players in the Chang'an City Guild and other hostile guilds was greatly reduced, and at this time, Arthur and the others quickly walked out to take another shuttle.

Just as Arthur envisioned, because of the previous one, there were not many people in the second bus, and most of the players were now gathered at the Dark Gate, either ready to fight or watching the excitement, and the number of strongholds at the crossroads was really not much.

So there were no more than twenty players on the same bus as Arthur, and the beetle looked empty, and Arthur and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But one of the players on duty in the cab narrowed his eyes, and above his head wrote three words Chang'an City, which was a member of the Chang'an City's trade union.

——————————————————————

Dark Portal.

"Arthur, are they really going to go this way?"

"I'm so excited, I'm going to do something big today, there are so many people, can I grab the equipment when I get into a fight?"

"Selling equipment and selling equipment are all prestige levels, requiring blue boutique equipment above level 10, if you want to equip it, hurry up and take a look, all kinds of races and body types have accepted customization!"

"The Little Sunflower Card Gold Coin Studio has officially opened, please look for the Little Sunflower Studio, our gold coins are completely hand-to-hand, and there is no possibility of banning!"

"Are you kidding me, can this game still be plugged in to play gold coins?"

"How do you sell gold coins? What price now? Do you sell magic stones? I want magic stones! ”

"Brother, you want magic stones? How much do you want? I have 10 magic stones here,"

Go to the crossroads and gather the players, shouting as usual, doing business, doing business, doing business, or preparing to wait until the excitement is over to the next dungeon.

It's no surprise that this is already a daily routine for players.

It's not just players who are at the Dark Gate, there are also many NPPCs who are observers from other dungeons in the Underworld, or volunteers from Winterfell.

The previous battles have made the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon famous, and in addition to the observers of the other dungeons, there are many volunteers who are willing to help the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon fight against the monsters of the surface world, and these are all warriors who have volunteered their lives for the peace of the underground world with this feeling in their hearts.

Having said that, the players don't have much respect for them, in the eyes of the players, these are just NPCs that can provide adventure quests, in fact, there are indeed a lot of quests provided by these volunteers, after all, these volunteers do not have very complete supply facilities after coming to the Dark Gate, and Sherlock cannot prepare food, shelter or clean water for the residents of the dungeon he came from, and all this needs to be provided by the players, of course, the reward they get is magic stones.

As soon as these players see that there are magic stones to take, they can't wait to serve these volunteers as emperors, and even some people build houses for them in the dark, so that they can live permanently, as for those players in the surface world, because the dark gate is already under the control of the eternal realm dungeon, and there is a portal to connect the eternal realm dungeon, Therefore, it is impossible for players in the surface world to travel back and forth between the two worlds through the Dark Gate, they can only teleport to the Crossroads stronghold first, and from the crossroads stronghold, they can explore the underground world.

This means that after the 2nd War, the entire Dark Gate has been overrun by players in the Eternal Realm Dungeon.

There have been a lot of Pioneer Alliances here, as well as players from other alliance guilds, as well as players from rival guilds led by Chang'an City, they have fought here sporadically, but they have not completely fought, both sides have shown great restraint, the main reason is that everyone has not known each other at once, and Arthur They have not yet appeared, if there is a large-scale battle now, it is difficult to say, Arthur doesn't take advantage of the gap in the battle to take goblins and frangipani through the dark doors.

The strategy of the players in Chang'an City is very correct, and this is what makes Arthur and them jealous.

But Arthur and the others have the initiative, and it is still Arthur's decision when to get to the Dark Gate, so only before they arrive at the Dark Gate, let the members of the Guild fight with the players of Chang'an City, and clean up the players of Chang'an City and their Alliance, and Arthur can easily pass through the Dark Gate after he arrives.

Of course, the premise is that the players in Chang'an City can't grasp Arthur's movements.

When Arthur and the others approached the Dark Gate, the union members of the Pioneer Alliance had already begun to prepare to harass and provoke the players of the Chang'an City Guild, but to the surprise of the Pioneer Alliance, the players of the Chang'an City Guild did not accept the provocation of the Pioneer Alliance anyway, and even took the initiative to retreat from the place they originally occupied, allowing the Pioneer Alliance to occupy the Dark Gate.

It felt as if the Pioneer Alliance's movements had been grasped by the people of Chang'an City.

"Have we been exposed?"

When he heard the news, Sylvanas whispered to his companions on the back of the beetle.

Hoe He shook his head, he didn't know what was going on, only Arthur thought silently, then stood up, walked to the driver's position and hit the partition between the driver and the passengers, and then saw the player sleeping in the cab.

To be precise, it is a player who is offline, and there is only one thing for a player to go offline at this point in time, that is, to contact other players.

This is a member of the Chang'an City Trade Union.

"We're exposed, tell the rest of the crew to get ready for battle!"

Arthur didn't hide himself, he shouted to the people behind him, and the other players on the beetle beast also looked at each other strangely after hearing Arthur's shout, but when they saw Arthur take off the hat on their heads, revealing the names of the green characters, those people suddenly became excited:

"I came to see the excitement, but I didn't expect the excitement to be around me!"

"Can you stop killing me when we fight, I'll see if I don't take your equipment!"

"Brother Arthur, I'm your fan, I'll definitely cheer you on!"

The players who were on the beetle beast shouted one after another, but Arthur didn't have the time to pay attention to them now, and after discovering that the driver was a member of the Chang'an City Union, Arthur fell back and went offline to inform the other guild members to get ready, their whereabouts have revealed that those players in Chang'an City who are waiting at the dark gate must be prepared.

They must have guessed that they were hiding their whereabouts in disguise, otherwise how could they explain the sneaky departure of two waves of players in high hats from the Crossroads?

And a member of the Pioneer Alliance Guild who commanded the battle on the side of the Dark Gate, after receiving Arthur's notice, immediately gathered his players and gave priority to occupying the Beetle's site, and after the members of the Pioneer Alliance Guild occupied the Beetle's stronghold, those players in Chang'an City, who had originally retreated, also surrounded at once, and they did not attack the members of the Pioneer Alliance Guild, but surrounded them, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Beetle.

As the minutes ticked by, the inhabitants of the underworld, who served as observers at the Dark Gate, noticed the unusual atmosphere here.

Many NPCs ask the players directly what happened, and those players are excited to tell others what they know.

In a word, Arthur's people received an adventure mission to take the goblins out of the underworld, and the other group of people disagreed, and Arthur left with the goblins and sniped them here.

In other words, there is a terrible civil strife in the dungeon of the Eternal Kingdom.
