Chapter 142: The Theft of the Crown

The weather that day was perfect for committing crimes.

Autumn is high and crisp, and there are no clouds. All the inhabitants of the entire city of Frango gathered in the square, waiting for the opening proclamation of the Lord of Fanny.

This is the annual "Golden Leaf Cup" equestrian competition in Cité Frango. In the past, it was just those NPCs competing with each other, but this year is different, and this year there have been more than 3,000 people who have signed up, of which more than 2,000 are players.

That's right, the level of the stubborn family is getting higher and higher, and everyone's life is generally well-off. It's okay to have a sweaty BMW at home or something. People also like to take part in the various events in the game, which of course only take place in the more stable main city.

Franco is undoubtedly the most beautiful main city in the world, and it is also the most peaceful and peaceful place in the world.

You can fully experience this tranquility from tens of thousands of spectators screaming wildly.

The reason why every player is screaming at their throats is because our greatest, most beautiful, holies, most admired and most revered Lord Fanny has come out. She wears a green robe, which symbolizes peace and hope, and also represents that Cité Frango is a green and pollution-free city with a large forest. She wore a golden laurel wreath in the shape of olive branches on her head, and when it came to it, it was a great deal. This crown of pure gold was crafted by the best jewelers in the Mystic Continent at the behest of Shawei, the King of Kings, and was created for the Lord of Fanny. If it's just a solid gold crown, it won't say anything, but I have to mention the jewel set in the laurel crown.

That's right, that emerald green gem. This gemstone is a specialty of the Franco region, and is said to have been produced in less than a kilogram for millions of years, making it the third most precious gemstone in the mystical world's top 10 rare gemstones. The reason for the third place is that this emerald is the only one of the top 10 gemstones that is purely decorative and has no magical properties. Its preciousness lies in the scarcity of production, and scarcity is expensive.

In the game, how many rich daughters dream of getting such emerald gems even if they are more than a dozen carats. Prices on the black market exceed the average price of all jewelry in reality. It's a crazy time, and a crazy age always has countless crazy people.

"Hey, I said Nick, I heard you're the most famous jewelry thief in the world. If you can get me the crown on the head of the Lord of Frango, I am willing to buy it at the price of a rare blood diamond in South Africa. ”

"Mr. Sturt, you're not alone in the idea of this crown. I have a lot of colleagues who are ready to sell, and they all get orders that are higher than what you offered......"

"Money is not a problem, so be it, as long as you can get it, I will offer a price you can't refuse."

"You're right, Mr. Sturt, I never care about money, I just want to compete with my peers, hehe......"

"Good luck, Nick. What is needed to open your mouth. ”

"Let's talk about it when I'm done, according to the old rules, I only need a ticket to Franco."

"No problem, first class!"

Well, there were no less than ten conversations like the above in three days. Most of the employers are players from rich countries, and the big thieves from all over the world are the ones who are responsible for them. These thieves are different from the thieves in Liberty City, they are real thieves in the real world with absolute professionalism......

Speaking of Free City...... There are two free cities in the mysterious world, an old city and a new city.

The old city is said to have been one of the main cities before, but for some reason it was abandoned and later overrun by a group of thieves. The old city doesn't have any official recognition, and it's all about it, and you won't find a way to get there from any of the main cities.

But the new city, but the king of kings, Shawei personally approved, legal, official "theft of the city"!

In the previous city lord called "Lanfeng City", Mr. Hodley complained to Sha Wei, Sha Wei did not get as angry as Hodley imagined and sent troops to attack. He was visibly lost in thought, and told Hodley to give him an answer in three days.

Three days later, Xavier announced to the world that he had recognized Helenkhin as the new Free City, legalized the Free City, and lifted some of the previous restrictions on it from the main city. But the robbery of the thieves is undoubtedly not supported, and everything else is normal.

As soon as this decision came out, it caused a sensation in the entire mysterious continent. One side sees this as an insult to the bright side, believing that this is undoubtedly setting a bad precedent for civil strife. The other side believes that this is a progress in artificial intelligence, respecting the player's affirmation of righteousness. For a while, the forum was noisy.

Shawei's decision is also a last resort. Sending troops to attack? So many players didn't get the Red City before, but they occupied their main city. Although he is the king of kings, he directly orders players, and it is estimated that not many people are willing to listen to him. The NPCs are one less dead, and most of their forces are used against areas that are already at war with the dark side. Big thief red name, evil power, this problem is inevitable as long as there is a human existence, today you ** a group, tomorrow there will be more groups. It's better to learn from those kings in human history, Zhao'an. Well, that is, to recruit peace, to give them the main city, and to recognize them as lawful. As long as they don't mess around, they will lose one city and protect a hundred cities. That's what Savoy meant.

He was right, and he was. Since the establishment of the Red City, the crime rate in the other main cities has dropped dramatically, because almost all the criminals from all over the world have run to the same place...... It is the city of Xibai that suffers, the main city that was previously opposed to the city of freedom, and is now the closest to them. Thousands of miles away, Frango City, which should have been on the front line of the dark side's attack. Instead, it has become the most stable city in the mysterious continent......

Now, in the city's main square, the crowd erupted in cheers after the appearance of the Lord of Fanny. People are glad to have such a beloved beauty city lord. Tens of thousands of pairs of eyes were looking at her, looking at her smile and frown, looking at the priceless crown on her head.

"I announce that this year's "Golden Leaf Cup" equestrian competition has officially started ......"

The city lord of Fanny placed his white slender jade hand on a crystal ball, and an equestrian live broadcast appeared on the huge influence wall in the square. 3,000 competitors from hundreds of major cities waved to the camera, and the equestrian competition officially began with a flood of cheers and applause......

Ever since I came to the Castle of Dreams, life has become stable. Every day, I hunt with the wheat field, go shopping, play around, and live a very happy life. When Helenbo found out that I had settled here, he said that I was too uninteresting, so he sneaked away. But he also expressed his heartfelt blessings to me, hoping that I and Mai Tian can be happy and happy, and he said that if there is anything to look for him, don't look at the distance of thousands of miles, it is nothing more than a portal distance. Well, the teleportation array of the New Free City was rebuilt after Shavoy declared it legal. Moses and Nala stayed there, the size of the Free City was getting bigger and bigger, and the Red Thieves were getting bigger and bigger, and the Helian siblings needed management talent like Nala. And they are also happy to be there to be president, CEO and CEO......

Compared to them, I would rather live the peaceful life I have now. But Mai Tian said that always like this doesn't reflect the value of the game at all, so he still pulls me to practice for a few hours every day and kill a few hours of monsters. In this equestrian competition, she also tried her best to persuade me to participate in it.

Hey, I have confidence in fighting, but equestrian ...... It's all about participation, it's about participating......

The sea snake is very interested, but unfortunately he has not changed jobs until now, and he has no horse-taming skills. And even if there is, it is estimated that according to his size, he should train a dragon......

So Ah Xing and I became the two players who represented the Dream Castle team. Salsa Wheat Field and Sea Serpent are our cheerleaders.

Ah Xing's equestrian skills are worse than mine, but in order to be able to get close to the city lord of Fanny, he resolutely signed up for this competition with me after learning to ride a horse for less than three days.

Right now, among the 3,000 players who appear on the big screen, there is an extremely low-key me, and a Hao who is smiling with peach blossoms. All of our contestants nodded and waved to the camera, and after sweeping over us, the camera returned to Lord Fanny again.

However, at this moment, all the people who looked back on the city lord of Fanny let out an exclamation, and with the close-up given by the camera, everyone was surprised to find that the crown on the head of the city lord of Fanny, the priceless crown, was missing......

"Damn, it's really a master, I haven't even seen the appearance of the crown clearly, and I was given it by my peers!"

In the crowd, a human assassin said indignantly.

"Oh my God, the crown is gone!"

More people were just shocked.

"Strange, where's my crown?"

Lord Fanny seemed to be the last to find out that her crown had been stolen, and she looked at the big screen, brushing her hair blankly. In that position, more than ten seconds ago, the crown of his beloved was still there......

Nothing like this has ever happened in the game, and there isn't a police department or anything like that in the main city. But all the players and NPCs who belong to Fanny's banner secretly vowed to bring this daring thief to justice after seeing her anxious expression!

As a result, the main traffic arteries of Frango City were immediately blocked.

A crime-solving team consisting of the most recognized and intelligent people in Frango City selected by everyone was quickly formed!

I was invited by the first guild of Franco City, the president of Fanny's fans support club, half a cigarette, and I was eliminated from the competition on the first day, as well as Wheat Field, all joined this secret organization. Ah Xing was also sent to find out all the news, and an orderly information network stretched out to every corner of Frango City...... (To be continued)
