Chapter 220: The Beginning of the Great War (2)

Ninth District.

As the first camp for players in the entire Desperate City, the Ninth District has always been an important location for the influx of players to go.

In particular, the area around the camp in the ninth district has not only developed a large number of residential areas with players' private land, but also the largest monster processing factory in the entire Desperate City, where many equipment and clothing stores and other businesses are based.

In addition, it is close to the industrial zone of the eighth district, and it is also connected to the monster breeding base on the other side, where a large number of weapons and mounts are also sold and traded.

Standing in the camp of the 9th arrondissement, you can see all kinds of large and small trading markets and shops on the street. Flags are unfurled, streamers are flying, and various billboards designed by players are hung in front of the store, and at first glance, it will make you feel as if you have arrived in a rural market.

"Sister Ling, remember to order me a few more rhinos, don't be too old, tall, well, four or five hundred pounds, that's about the same."

In a shop-lined street, in a shop with barbecue on it, a man is sitting at a wooden table, carefully recording his recent income. Next to him, a slender figure walked by, which immediately attracted the man's attention.

"Rui, are you really addicted to selling barbecue? Look at you, you have awakened the transcendent first order, but you haven't learned any combat skills, if you work harder, maybe you can enter the transcendent second order now. ”

After Ma Xiaoling heard the man's words, she stopped slightly, glanced at the man next to her helplessly, and her tone was a little dissatisfied.

"Sister Ling, it's not that you don't know me, I'm just here to play, it's not that life players are more leisurely, I go to fight and kill every day, it's not what I'm good at."

The man who was calculating stood up, looked at Ma Xiaoling next to him, licked his face and smiled, and then pointed to the barbecue shop next to him, "Look at me now, this is also a person with a family, I think about whether I should open a branch now, I heard that there are a lot of people gathered in the third city, and there are aborigines of players, let me tell you, don't look at our main focus on players, but in fact, the consumption power of aborigines is not low......"

"Alright, alright." Hearing that Ah Rui seemed to be babbling about his business experience, Ma Xiaoling waved her hand impatiently, "I didn't take you to play if I knew that I wouldn't have taken you to play, I think about this barbecue or skewers every day, it's a bit out of luck, okay?" ”

"Haha......" Ah Rui chuckled and shook his head slightly, it was Ma Xiaoling who invited him to enter this world together, he was actually thinking about being bored, he didn't expect to make a business in this world, barbecue and skewers or something, the business was actually quite good.

On the one hand, the materials in this world are actually relatively scarce, even if there is a large amount of edible monster meat later, but the processing technology is relatively rough, the aborigines don't mind but many players can't stand it, bloody barbecue, black food, even if players eat the body will not have too many accidents, but the taste alone can't be accepted.

On the other hand, the aborigines need to consume food, and if the player does not die, the player will also need food to replenish energy if the time reaches a certain level. Comparatively speaking, the messy food such as barbecue and various skewers made by Ari is still relatively popular.

Occasionally, there will be some special meats or other mushrooms and plants, make a dark dish, and there are a lot of mavericks in the player who want to try it, anyway, the big deal is to spend money to resurrect, and there are also a lot of gourmets in the player.

Moreover, the flesh and blood of some transcendent monsters are tenacious, and if you want to eat them, you need to cook them for a long time before they can be eaten, which is one of the reasons why Ari's shop can be competitive.

After all, most players have money for their time, and even if they get the flesh of the transcendent species, it doesn't take that long

"If only I had opened such a store in the real world, I would have the income I have now."

Seeing that Ma Xiaoling understood better, Ah Rui sighed again in his heart.

The income of his barbecue restaurant can now be said to be quite good, and with the influx of more and more players, more and more players come to buy, and some of these extraordinary meat products are sold even more.

The principle in this is not the same as the potion, the potion is the essence of extracting various monsters and monsters, the medicine is strong, and it forcibly induces players to awaken the extraordinary seeds. And many transcendent flesh and blood, after processing, contain relatively peaceful magical energy, suitable for ordinary people to absorb, can promote the body's alienation awakening.

Not only some players have taken the flesh and blood of the transcendent species for a long time, but among the aborigines, a kid who has been working with him all the year round has also awakened the transcendent seed a few days ago after eating the barbecue of the transcendent species for a long time, which also caused a sensation at the time.

And the benefits that this barbecue restaurant brought to Ah Rui are really quite good, basically he can easily win all kinds of goods launched by the current City Lord's Mansion Mall, and he also gave Ma Xiaoling a lot of funding, making Ma Xiaoling have advanced by leaps and bounds since the last war, and she is almost touching the edge of the transcendent second order.

This is also one of the reasons why Ma Xiaoling is willing to stay in Ari's barbecue restaurant to help in the recent period, although she said that she was unhappy and disgusted, but looking at the growth of the magic crystal coin in the account, she finally honestly agreed to accept it.

"Chirp!"

"Chirp!"

While the two were talking, a strange cry suddenly sounded from inside the barbecue restaurant.

Then there was a chaotic sound of thunderclaps, which made Ah Rui and Ma Xiaoling, who were standing at the door of the store, both come to their senses at the same time.

"Xiaoqiang, Xiaoqiang, don't run around! Oh, if you grab my hair again, I'm welcome......"

In the barbecue restaurant, dressed in plain clothes and carrying a long sword, Xinxin jumped out with her eyebrows upside down.

"What's wrong, Sister Xuan?"

Ah Rui saw the evil on his face, and looked at the other party with some doubts.

"What are you doing?" Ma Xiaoling, who was on the side, was also a little strange when she saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Xinxin and her are best friends, during this time, Ma Xiaoling occasionally helps out on Arui's side, and Xinxin occasionally comes here to hang out when she trains various combat skills and hunts monsters to hone her skills.

She has now awakened the Transcendent Seed, which can be regarded as stepping into the realm of the Transcendental, and with the foundation laid down by the fencing she has practiced for decades, she has made rapid progress, and it can be said that among the players, many players who are more agile than Xuan Xinxin in terms of pure strength and agility are probably far from being the opponents of Xuan Xinxin in head-to-head confrontation.

That grasp of the distance of the fight, as well as the stability of the big fight, and the ability to seize the fleeting moment, after awakening the transcendent seed, all of these aspects have been quantitatively improved.

This is just like Ke Yuan, who used to be an archer, he has undergone long-term professional training, mastered a lot of skills, and after his physical fitness has been improved by leaps and bounds, his ability has been raised, far exceeding that of ordinary players.

Xin had cold cream on her face, and as soon as she left the store, she began to quickly glance left and right, and said angrily: "Ah Rui, your Xiaoqiang is crazy, where is it?" There are a lot of aborigines around here, you have to be careful if it hurts people?? ”

"What?" After listening to Xinxin's whole sentence, Ah Rui was taken aback, "How come, Xiaoqiang has always been very docile?" ”

Although he said so in his mouth, Ah Rui's movements did not dare to slow down at all, his water monkey Xiaoqiang knew how powerful he was, a frost spit, basically those below the first order of the transcendent immediately hung up, including Ma Xiaoling, many female players who teased Xiaoqiang were not spared.

But the player is just that, if something really happens, he just compensates for some magic crystal coins, and then adds a little more equipment and weapons or something, but if the aborigines suffer an accident, then it's really troublesome.

The City Lord's Mansion once had a rule that players who intentionally and unintentionally hurt the aborigines will be punished with various punishments, the most serious one is a direct ban, and the next level is on the red wanted list, and any player who kills can be rewarded, and the punishment of confinement will be carried out.

The business district of the Ninth Quarter is bustling with people, with the vast majority of players making up the majority, but there are also many aborigines, helping to help with the shops or doing some miscellaneous items, among other things. If the water monkey Xiaoqiang is really crazy and hurts people, then he will have a lot of fun next, and if he can't say that this barbecue restaurant will lose money, and he may not have a chance to enter the city of despair again.

"I don't know what's wrong with it, it's just that it's suddenly getting restless."

Hearing Ah Rui say this, her expression softened slightly, after all, she has been playing with this little guy, and one of the reasons why she often comes to this barbecue restaurant is that in addition to Ma Xiaoling being here, the most important thing is this cute little guy.

"Don't be stunned, hurry up and look for it!"

Ma Xiaoling saw that the two of them were still chattering in Rory, so she stood up first and quickly searched around the entire barbecue restaurant.

"Yes, yes!" Ah Rui also came back to his senses, and he had no time to investigate why Xiaoqiang became agitated, and the top priority was to find it first, so that it might hurt others.

"Xiaoqiang, Xiaoqiang!"

Ari's voice rang out inside and outside the barbecue restaurant.

"Whoa—"

Suddenly there was a strange scream.

A small figure appeared on the billboard above the barbecue restaurant, as if hearing the call, like a bolt of lightning, it jumped out quickly, jumped on Ari's head, grabbed Ari's hair, and danced with his hands and kept making all kinds of weird screams.

"Oops, what's wrong with Xiaoqiang?!"

Ah Rui reached out and grabbed Xiao Qiang from his head, looking at the water monkey with inexplicable uneasiness in his round eyes that kept beating on his palm, and habitually stretched out his other hand, ready to rub the top of the water monkey's head.

This trick is the way he tried to get along with Xiaoqiang, and only he, the recognized "master" or "companion", has an effect, if others do this, you have to be careful that this guy spews out a cold breath from his mouth, and freezes you directly into a big ice lump.

"Whoa—"

Only this time, as soon as Ah Rui's hand was stretched out, the little guy jumped up, as if he was going to slap off Ah Rui's palm that wanted to appease him, baring his teeth and making a sharp cry in his mouth, fierce and cute, even Ma Xiaoling and Yu Xinxin next to him looked a little dazed.

This guy is not close to these people, although they have been together for a long time, and now they can be touched to some extent, but most of the time they are lazy in the face of these people. The only exception is Li Yuncheng and Qingjiaoyu, the two of them have come many times before, specializing in Xiaoqiang's spell casting principle, if it weren't for Ari's refusal to sell, he would have been dissolved by Li Yuncheng and Qingjiaoyu, and the water monkey was tossed by the two of them to be convinced, and he couldn't run.

But today's performance is still very surprising to Ari.

"Xiaoqiang, what are you doing here?" Seeing the appearance of the water monkey with its teeth and claws, Ari was not willing to be appeased at all, and he still couldn't understand it for a while.

"Whoa—"

The little monster screamed again, and then simply followed Ari's arm, jumped on Ari's head again, and tore his hair.

"Don't make a fuss, Xiaoqiang!"

Li Yuncheng was pulled by Xiaoqiang's hair, and he felt a slight tingling, he had been in the city for a long time, he didn't go out, and basically maintained a normal sense of pain, so this pull made him a little angry.

Holding Xiaoqiang in one hand and holding it in his hand, he was ready to educate this increasingly lawless little guy, and suddenly, Ah Rui keenly felt Xiaoqiang's strange state.

"Is this sick or what? Why are you shaking? ”

Ah Rui was a little inexplicable for a while, and Ma Xiaoling and Xin Xin next to him also noticed an abnormality at this time.

Hmmm-

Suddenly, above the sky, a piercing cry reached everyone's ears.

It was a giant bird with two or three meters wide spread its wings, one of the few scavenging flying monsters that survived the mouths of two-headed manta lions and pterodactyls.

As the bird resembled a vulture and a goshawk let out a piercing scream and flew by, the water monkey in Ari's hand became restless again, desperately tugging at Ari's fingers with two slender arms, as if trying to tell him something.

"Is this trying to get me to run for my life?"

Ah Rui watched Xiao Qiang's movements, and suddenly another spiritual light seemed to pass through his mind, and he understood the meaning of the water monkey.

He remembered that when he first came into contact with Xiaoqiang's cute little monster in the Eleventh District, many players were trying their best to lure the sea monster ashore, and this little guy was also in this way at that time.

Only this time it's more exaggerated.

"Could it be that some monster has invaded the City of Despair? Or is there any danger that will erupt? ”

Ah Rui pondered in his heart, and at the same time turned his head to look at Ma Xiaoling and Yu Xinxin, "It seems that Xiaoqiang is asking me to run quickly, it seems that there is some danger coming?" ”

"Danger? What dangers? Ma Xiaoling looked incredulous, and pointed to the surrounding bustling and lively urban area, "The monsters around this urban area have been cleaned up many times, and you don't leave the camp, where is there any danger, unless you ......"

"Unless something ......," Xinxin next to her added.

Ma Xiaoling opened her mouth, but before the words came out, one after another chirps rang out in the sky, and one after another giant birds fluttered their wings, scurrying around without a head.

Woo –

Woo –

At the same time, a horn sounded throughout the Ninth District.
