Glory Federation, Hanhai Sky City, Player Salon Café.

In the afternoon when the light rain is clear, the air is very sober, and the sun is warm, which makes people feel lazy and don't want to move even when they are in the game. Brew a pot of the best Longjing after the rain, taste a few bites of delicate sesame shortbread, and time passes like flowing water.

The jade man sitting opposite Lei Jingtian didn't seem to have changed at all, with a warm and lovely face, a kind and easy-going smile, and that elegant dress, Lei Jingtian suddenly remembered the scene when he met her for the first time.

It was once said that a man can be called perfect if he has a wife, a lover, and a confidante. Lei Tiantian has a lover and no lover, but there is a confidante, but in this illusory world.

"Come back this time, are you still leaving?" Lei asked.

"Actually, I never left." Ye Youlan smiled and said: "At the end of the year, I was too busy with work, and I didn't have much time to come up, and even if I entered the game, I just went around to see the scenery, and I really didn't want to waste the only free time I had on calculations." Now I can finally catch my breath, so I'm just going to talk to a few old friends. ”

Lei Jingtian nodded, a mentality like Ye Youlan is called playing games, among the hundreds of millions of players in this second world, the vast majority of people are played by games, indulging in their own happiness and not waking up, in fact, he himself is similar, but he has more of a grasp of himself in this world.

"You should know about Tomorrow's Rose, right? I see that several of your sisters have gone to its competitors, and I worked with Sotheby's last time. Lei Jingtian said with some regret: "If you were still here, the situation might be very different." ”

Sotheby's, the current game auction company, and several new companies are in the limelight, and a few days ago they also held a New Year specialty auction, inviting only the top players to participate in the auction, and Lei Jingtian was also invited. But he gave up when his mind was all about other places.

"I know all this, that auction company started with just a few sisters getting together to play, and now it has changed hands, and it is enough to be glamorous!" Ye Youlan is very watchable, and Lei Jingtian knows how much effort she has spent in it, but the turning point between prosperity and decline is too fast.

"Let's not talk about the disappointment, Tiger, how are you doing?" Ye Youlan asked, "Why do I see that you seem to have something on your mind?" ”

Lei shocked the sky and smiled bitterly, he did have something on his mind. It's just that I can't tell anyone about it.

Seeing the thunderous expression, the intelligent Ye Youlan immediately changed the topic: "Heh, look at me, I just said not to talk about the disappointment, and I am talking about it myself." That's right, Tiger. I have something here that I accidentally got during a trip, and I kept it for myself, so it's a small gift for you! ”

As she spoke, she took out a metal box from her handbag and handed it to Lei Jingtian.

The metal box, about the size of a fist, was unpretentious and looked old. The pale gold box is very heavy, and the top surface of the lid is slightly protruding with a strange pattern, like an emblem and like a text.

System Prompt: You have obtained the Lost Box and started the Lost Legend quest.

As soon as the metal box was in hand, a new page was turned on the Thunder Shock mission log, and a line of flashing gold words flashed in the name bar at the top of the page: Lost Legend Quest.

In the first column of the quest's name, there is a line of text: Return the Lost Box to Elsa at the Silverlight Jewelry Shop in the Flame Sky City.

Thunderbolt immediately understood. This box is apparently a trigger item for a random story quest, and the hint on the quest log is already very obvious, but it's quite rare.

"Thank you!" Lei Jingtian put the metal box into his backpack, he and Ye Youlan have been dating for a long time, and they don't need to be polite to each other.

What better option to complete an estimated interesting story mission while waiting for news?

Blaze is one of the five empty cities of the Glory Federation, with a population of millions, the empty city is located in the middle of the Hengduan Mountain Range, the longest in the game continent, and there are many leveling points in the surrounding mountains, especially the prehistoric ruins hidden in the forest are flocking to many players who like to explore and hunt for treasures. About 50 kilometers southeast of the Flame Sky City, there are also large volcanic complexes, with three active volcanoes spewing smoke and magma day and night. When Lei Tiantian entered the empty city on the spaceship, through the porthole, you could clearly see the roaring Huohuo Mountain below, and the scene was extremely spectacular when viewed from above.

It was the first time that Thunder had come to the Flame Sky City. When he left the airport, he directly stopped a taxi, directly reported the name of Yinhui jewelry store, and arrived at his destination easily.

However, the NPC owner of the Yinhui jewelry store smiled and poured a basin of cold water on him: "Elsa? I'm sorry, but I can't remember this person in our store, do you want to see the jewelry? The whole flame is only here with me, and there are top jewelry masters..."

"Stop!" Thunder immediately stopped the rambling words of the shopkeeper, who was as fat as a ball, and flipped his hand. A few golden crystals were stuffed over: "Boss." Do you reminisce about memories? ”

Experiments have proved that Jin Jing can effectively prevent NPC memory impairment. After accepting the thunderous Jin Jing, the shopkeeper's memory immediately returned to normal: "Ah! By the way, this silver jewelry store was bought by me more than ten years ago, when I first took over the shop, there was only one old guy in the store, he is now retired, but he lives nearby, now at this time you should go to the sailor's bar not far ahead, you can go to him and ask. ”

"His name is Old Larry."

When I found the clue and walked out of the jewelry store, the sky was already completely dark, and the bustling flaming empty city was lit up, and it became more and more noisy and lively.

The place where the Yinhui jewelry store is located is a relatively remote small street, the shops on both sides of the street are not large, but there are many pedestrians on the street, groups of players in and out, thunder shocked and walked forward less than a hundred meters to see the sign of the sailor's bar.

Colorful neon lights depicting dancing girls, rock music mixed with laughter, and rude drinkers shaking bottles and singing loudly are bars that can be found in the empty city and are the perfect place for countless players to find quests and hear news.

When you open the door, you will be greeted by the smell of a popular bar, the smell of low-quality tobacco and beer, and even though it is not prime time, the bar is already full of customers.

It took a lot of effort for Lei Jingtian to squeeze to the bar, and a glamorous bar girl threw a wink at him and asked in a coquettish voice, "Handsome guy, what do you want?" ”

"A stout!" Lei Jingtian casually dropped a golden crystal and said, "Don't look for it, count your tip more!" ”

The bar girl's eyes lit up, and she took the golden crystal with a light probe, turned around and quickly poured a bunch of beer and handed it to Lei Jingtian.

Lei Jingtian took the beer and took a sip, half leaning on the bar and looking left and right, of course he didn't know the old Larry in the fat boss's mouth, and he needed to inquire again if he wanted to find the other party.

Looking back, Lei Jingtian saw that the bar girl was looking at him with interest.

"What's the matter, do I have flowers on my face?" Lei Jingtian asked with a smile, he originally meant that this NPC might not be able to understand this little ridicule, but the other party said with a smile: "The flower is not long, but I have been working here for a few days, and it is the first time I have met such a generous player as you." Handsome guy, you're here to take on a mission, right? ”

Suddenly, this bar girl is obviously also a player and not an NPC, in fact, it is very common for players to work for NPCs in the game, although they can't make a lot of money because of system restrictions, but sometimes they are so poor that they can't afford to buy medicine to level up is not necessarily an emergency method.

Since the other party is also a player, Lei Jingtian didn't beat around the bush and asked directly: "No, I'm here to find an NPC called Old Larry, have you seen it?" ”

"Hehe, I don't know if you're looking for someone else, but old Larry comes every night, and he won't go back until he gets drunk, huh! Look at that balding old guy by the window over there! The bar girl smiled and pointed out to the thunderbolt.

"Thank you!" Lei Jingtian drank the beer in his hand in one gulp, and dropped a golden crystal again: "A little meaning!" ”

Squeezing through the crowd again, Lei Shocking came to the window position in the bar, and the NPC that the bar girl was referring to looked to be at least seventy or eighty years old, and the folds on his face were wrinkled like old orange peel. He held a glass wine glass in his hand, and was sipping the wine one by one, and from time to time he let out a sigh of admiration.
