Chapter 386: Crescent Island
Crescent Island, an island in the East China Sea on the continent, is far away from the mainland and has beautiful scenery. If it were Earth, this place would be a great holiday destination, right?
Xia Lu followed Zhou Xian all the way and flew over in Xiaobai.
"Zhou Xian, what should we do next?" Xia Lu asked.
"The first encounter said that after I completed this task, I asked you to do that S-class task with her, so we didn't consider the technical content and directly crushed it violently." Zhou Xian said with a smile.
"Violent crushing ......?"
Xia Lu was dumbfounded.
This is an SS-level mission!
In order of task difficulty, this task can be said to be a fourth-level difficulty task, even if the elite team up, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to say anything about violent crushing, right? As far as Xia Lu herself is concerned, she once did an A-level mission, and that task tossed Xia Lu to death...... Since then, Xia Lu has stayed away from such high-level and difficult tasks.
"Is this the power of the Emperor player......"
Strictly speaking, Zhou Xian is still just a "waiting" Emperor player, but even so, Zhou Xian already has such a strong force. If it is replaced by other Emperor players at this time, I don't know what kind of power they have......
There are no famous buildings on Crescent Island, and there are no special products, in fact, there is only one village on this small island.
"There's not a lot of news about this place on the Internet."
When he reached the top of Crescent Island, Zhou Xian began to check the news related to Crescent Island.
But looking at these news, Zhou Xian was thinking in his heart.
The difference between this place and Zhou Xian's imagination is too great. And there is basically no news about this remote place on the Internet.
"Why don't we go and see it first?" Xia Lu asked.
"Well, so be it. Decide what the task is about...... Well, it can't be too conspicuous either. "Finished. Zhou Xian took out a Dao talisman, and then used the group stealth technique to find a hidden place to land.
"It's a good environment here." After letting Xiaobai go back first, Zhou Xian looked around, although this place is remote, but the environment is very good. In front of Zhou Xian is a beach, this beach has light blue water and fine sand, looking into the distance, there is almost a line between the sea and the sky.
The sea breeze is gusting, and the gulls are flying in the sky. It is probably not an exaggeration to call this place a fairyland on earth.
"If there were such wonderful places on earth, they would have been developed into tourist attractions long ago." Xia Lu is also infinitely yearning for this breathtakingly beautiful scenery.
Zhou Xian also sighed: "Yes, but in this place, this beach belongs to us now." ”
“…… Huh?! When Xia Lu heard this, her voice almost changed. But fortunately, Zhou Xian still wanted to just say it casually.
However, Zhou Xian was indeed just emotional, and at this time, Zhou Xian said again: "But such a scene is not uncommon in the Dragon Tomb World. There are a lot of beautiful things in this world that you can't see in the real world, well, I liked this world in the first place, probably because of this! ”
Zhou Xian's words almost said that Xia Lu's heart was in the heart.
"Hmm. This world, this Dragon Tomb World, I also like it the most! Xia Lu said loudly about her love for this world.
"Yes," Zhou Xian also shouted in the direction of the sea, "this world." I liked it the most!! ”
"I like it the most!" Xia Lu also shouted again.
The two of them shouted like two fools.
"Huh......" shouted for an unknown amount of time. The two stopped.
Xia Lu stared at Zhou Xian, and Zhou Xian also looked at Xia Lu. Suddenly, the two of them burst out laughing in unison.
"We're like fools." Xia Lu lay on the beach. Stupidly looking at the sky.
"yes, like a fool." Zhou Xian also sat down and looked at the sky.
The two of them sat like this for nearly half an hour, and at this time, Zhou Xian looked at the time, and it seemed that it was almost enough: "Rest should be enough, let's hurry up and do the task, if I delay the time, you may have to trouble me when you first meet." ”
"Hmm." Xia Lu nodded, although the scenery here is indeed wonderful, but their next work must not be forgotten.
Continuing north from this side of the beach, they soon came across a walled city.
The city was very rudimentary, and the surrounding walls were almost made of logs.
According to the commission, Zhou Xian and the others already knew that the commission of this guild was here.
"Anyone?" Zhou Xian shouted towards the city gate, which was actually a simple wooden walled gate.
However, no one responded.
"Excuse me, anyone?!"
Zhou Xian saw that no one responded to him, so he had to shout again.
However, there was still no response.
"Could it be that all the people inside are out?" Xia Lu asked.
"This ...... Unlikely, right? Zhou Xian could clearly feel the breath of someone from inside.
"Speaking of which, what exactly is our mission, can we know now?" Xia Lu asked again.
But Zhou Xian still shook his head: "This one is not." I guess I'm going to get in here. ”
But here comes the problem again, and no one seems to open the door inside. But Zhou Xian is not good at sneaking in, if he is accidentally discovered by them, he will have another headache in this regard. In case a mission fails, it's also bad.
After all, it's more difficult to get an SS-level mission. The experience of this task can directly brush Xia Lu's level to level 50 or above, and it is a pity to give up like this.
But at this time, Zhou Xian noticed that there seemed to be a figure peeking at him from behind the wall. Seeing that there was a person here, Zhou Xian's eyes lit up: "The one over there, we are the guild that took over the commission, and now we are here to find the client!" ”
When the person over there heard Zhou Xian's voice, he was still a little dazed, as if he wanted to run away, but after hearing Zhou Xian's content, this person stopped instead.
"...... you received the assignment?" The man asked.
When Zhou Xian heard this person's voice, he didn't seem to be an adult, but since someone spoke, this was almost enough, so Zhou Xian naturally nodded and said: "Well, yes, we took the task, but there is only the relevant reward on the task, and there is no belief in it." We've taken on the task now, but we also want to know the information."
The remuneration is given by the principal, and the experience is given by the system.
"Good...... I'll go tell the elders. The boy ran away.
When Xia Lu saw the other party leaving, she was also puzzled: "What's wrong with this village?" Why is there only such a child? ”
"Maybe something happened...... Well, it's very likely that it has something to do with our next mission. Zhou Xian was speculating.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps on the other side of the door, but the door did not open.
At this time, an old man seemed to pass through the ladder and didn't know anything, and when he reached the top of the city gate, after seeing Zhou Xian and them, the old man asked, "Are you the guild members who received the task?" ”
"Yes!" Zhou Xian walked over and talked to the other party.
"Which guild are you from? We have sent commissions to several guilds. "This old man's guard is really heavy.
Zhou Xian had no choice but to say at this time: "We are from the Dragon Tomb Guild, the Dragon Tomb Guild of Seven Star City!" ”
Hearing Zhou Xian say his name, the old man's originally serious expression finally softened, but he still didn't open the door, but continued to ask, "Why are there only two of you?" ”
Zhou Xian didn't say much, he directly hit the land next to him, and caused an explosion, and then Zhou Xian gently told the old man: "It's enough for the two of us here." ”
At this time, the old man also breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked people to open the city gate and let Zhou Xian in. And after Zhou Xian and the others came in, these villagers who opened the door quickly closed the city gate.
The actions of these villagers made Zhou Xian and Xia Lu a little baffled, and at this time, the old man came over with apologies: "It's really rude for the two of us to come from afar, but this Crescent Island has not been peaceful recently, and we have to do this." Oh, by the way, I'm Mushan, the village head of Crescent Village, and I haven't asked for advice yet? ”
"My name is Zhou Xian, his name is Xia Lu, and we are all members of the Dragon Tomb Guild." After a brief introduction, Zhou Xian asked, "May I also ask, what happened in this place?" ”
As soon as Zhou Xian finished asking, he noticed that the faces of the village chief and the villagers next to him were very strange.
"Alas, Mr. Zhou, please come with us into the village first." The old man invited Zhou Xian to the village, and Zhou Xian looked ahead, only to find that there was a city wall in front of him, and unlike the current wooden one, although this city wall was very dilapidated, it was indeed a stone wall. After passing through the stone wall, there is a fence in front, and behind the fence is the original appearance of this crescent village.
Zhou Xian only understood at this time, why no one responded when he shouted before, these people were all in this place at that time, although Zhou Xian could vaguely feel their breath, but he couldn't know the specific distance. If it weren't for the little ghost who might have gone out because of playfulness or something, Zhou Xian really couldn't find them at that time.
The village chief, Mu Shan, led Zhou Xian to his house before saying to Zhou Xian, "You must be very curious why we are building so many obstacles, right? In fact, this is also a last resort. And the task I entrusted my son to post is also related to this. ”
"I want to hear about it." Knowing that the task was coming, of course Zhou Xian had to ask.
Moreover, the situation in this village is indeed very strange, which makes Zhou Xian quite puzzled. (To be continued......)
