Chapter XXVIII
It's been a while since Dylan Murphy, and after Dylan thanked Yuan Mu for his fulfillment, he still took those half-undead children to the city that Macaron said, and Yuan Mu supported him with some gold resources. Dylan has advanced to become a hero, and many things are convenient, but the consumption of gold resources is also greater.
"Here we are, Locke City."
In front of him is a level 3 city, although the city level is not high, but there are many resource points in the Count of Locke's territory. The Count of Locke family is also wealthy, and there are several villages in the territory in addition to Locke City.
The first thing Yuan Mu did when he entered the city was to recruit some new subordinates. Half of the fighting forces against Ramado were killed and a few wounded, but fortunately there were few important men to lose. Moreover, the two rare demon birds, under the care of the old hunter, will soon be able to participate in the battle.
Locke City's city classes are also not open to recruitment, but many classes can be purchased on the trading floor of Rock City.
As soon as he walked to the market, before he reached the trading hall, Yuan Mu saw a familiar building inside-a gambling house.
Count Locke was such a good man, always lending a helping hand to Yuan Mu when he needed it most......
Heavy armor, level 3 equipment, put on Thor;
Two Tier 3 recruitment tickets for Rock City;
One level 3 Ice Demon Ring scroll;
Locke City Trading Floor Discount Coupons;
Dark Gold Dagger, Level 3 Equipment;
500 gold;
……
Important strategic resources such as treasures and architectural drawings are generally not put in the box, and Count Locke is not stupid, and many discount coupons are encouraged to be spent in Locke City.
This time, there were no barbarian prisoner of war merchants for sale in the trading hall, so Yuan Mu had to buy half a squad of Level 2 shield-wielding guards and four Level 2 halberd soldiers. Two level 3 rangers were recruited with recruitment tickets, which can shoot arrows and can also be used as scouts.
The task of escorting the horses is not in Rock City, but in Prancing Horse Village, a level 2 village in Rock Earlland, which can also be seen as a horse farm.
Yuan Mu found Scott, the person in charge of transporting the war horse this time, and handed him the mission introduction letter. Scott is a level 3/level 2 hero.
"Does the quartermaster still want your help? Hmph, it's not necessary at all, I can do it myself. To Yuan Mu's surprise, Scott got the letter of introduction to the mission, but he was not welcome.
Yuan Mu hadn't seen this situation before, so he could only say: "I also came here after taking the mission, of course it's good that nothing happened, I can also go back to Knight City by the way." ”
"You go to the hotel and wait, I'll let you know when I leave."
Seeing that Scott was so arrogant and didn't even tell himself the specific departure time, Yuan Mu was also angry. But now it's a task, so there's no need to worry about him in general.
Arriving at the Prancing Horse Village Hotel, Yuan Mu found that there was a player named 'Rego the Conqueror' talking to the innkeeper in the inn.
Yuan Mu remembered the player he saw in Knight City whose Conqueror Banner Guild was called 'Conqueror Viseryon', and thought to himself that it wouldn't be such a coincidence.
Rego the Conqueror also saw Yuan Mu and recognized the tall Tao Snow beside him, and was equally taken aback. Soon he changed into a smiling face and walked over: "You are Yuan Mu, I heard Viserion say you, my name is Rego the Conqueror." "It's really a man of the Conqueror's Banner Union.
Yuan Mu didn't have a good impression of them, and said lightly: "I remember him, is there anything wrong?" "The badge of the inaugural master's profession is on Yuan Mu, and of course Yuan Mu remembers him.
Rego saw that Yuan Mu was so cold, and thought to himself, could it be that Vicelion offended him and didn't dare to tell the union? But now he still has big things to do, and he doesn't want Yuan Mu to be an accident. Still leaned in with a hot face and said with a smile: "Let's sit down and have a drink." ”
After sitting down, Rego asked directly, "I don't know what your purpose is in Prancing Horse Village?" ”
"Of course I'm here to do the task." Yuan Mu sensed what the Conqueror Banner Guild might have to do.
"Hehe, I don't know what the task is?"
Seeing Yuan Mu looking at him with a smile, Rego explained: "Yuan Mu, we are also here to do the task. I'm just afraid that you and our mission will conflict, and it will hurt your feelings when you meet on the battlefield. ”
"It's okay to tell you, it's to escort a group of war horses to Knight's City."
Rego didn't expect that Yuan Mu's mission was really in direct confrontation with their purpose, and he was in trouble for a while. After thinking about it, it came to me: "I'll tell you directly." Our mission is conflicting, and I want you to sell our conqueror banner a face and abandon this mission. ”
Yuan Muqi said: "You actually want to rob the horse team? With the current strength of the Conqueror Guild, I'm afraid it's not enough. ”
Yuan Muke saw that Scott had brought three squads of subordinates, and the level of his subordinates was not low. The horse team is not only Scott, but also some guards. On top of that, the war horses that openly robbed the Knights' City may be wanted by the Knights' Cities.
"You don't care about it, if you give up this mission, our union will give you some compensation."
"What do you think of me?" Yuan Mu sneered, "If you don't explain clearly, you want to take advantage of me, let's see you on the battlefield." ”
got up and left him alone, and took Tao Snow and them out.
Walking around the Prancing Horse Village until it was dark, and when she came to a remote place, Delia suddenly shouted ahead, "Who is it?" ”
A man slowly walked out of the darkness in front of him, with handsome blond hair and an elegant smile on his face, and greeted Yuan Mu: "Hello, my name is Zhuo Geng the Conqueror, and I am the person in charge of the Conqueror Banner here. I think we can talk about that. ”
Conqueror Zhuo Geng is a level 2/level 2 hero, not because he levels up faster than Yuan Mu, but because it is very difficult to gain campaign experience. After Yuan Mu's battle level was upgraded to level 2, he accumulated a lot of battle experience, while Zhuogeng's battle level had just stepped into level 2.
Yuan Mu also smiled: "If you want to talk about cooperation, then make things clear first." ”
Zhuo Geng was prepared before he came, but he still smiled: "Of course, I will make it clear, I am very willing to have a good relationship with a good player like you." ”
Zhuo Geng continued: "We have been tasked by a group of horse thieves to come to Prancing Horse Village to find out the news of this group of war horses, and then we will assist the group of horse thieves to snatch this group of war horses. We hope that you will abandon this mission, and as compensation, the Guild can give you 500 gold and also build a friendship with us. ”
Yuan Mu asked directly, "What is the strength of this group of horse thieves?" If I'm too weak, I don't want to miss this mission. "500 gold coins is a lot of money for ordinary players at this stage, but Yuan Mu really didn't pay attention to it.
Zhuo Geng thought for a while, but still replied: "The leader of the horse thieves is a level 4/level 2 hero, and there are two level 4 elites under him, and his strength is very strong. Even if you join the Guardian mission, it won't necessarily be successful, I just think we can win. ”
After the battle with Ramado, the level 4/2 hero Yuan Mu didn't feel anything. He continued to ask, "Do you know when the convoy escorting the war horses will leave?" ”
"We've already heard about it, and it's been two days." Drogen's answer was crisp.
"When will the horse thief attack."
"It's inconvenient to disclose this."
"What if I don't agree?"
"Hehe, I'm sure you're not an unwise person, and if that's the case, then you're going to face the wrath of our union."
Zogen dared to threaten himself. Yuan Mu pondered for a moment and replied, "In this way, if you tell me which day the horse thief will attack the escort, I can guarantee that I and my troops will not be in the escort that day." After that day, I'll go back to Knights with the Guards. ”
Zhuo Geng laughed and said: "Refreshing, then it is a word, I hope we will have a chance to cooperate next time." ”
Yuan Mu also smiled: "As for whether you can succeed that day, it depends on your own ability." If you fail, don't blame me. ”
After Drogen left, Delia asked, "My lord, do you really want to cooperate with them?" If the task of the quartermaster of the knight city fails, it will be inconvenient to recruit troops in the knight city in the future. ”
"If there's a better option, why not?" Yuan Mu said again, "He must have hidden something from me, now we should go to find a better choice." ”
The next day, Yuan Mu sent someone to ask about the date of Scott's escort's departure, and Scott replied that it would be okay to wait. After a while, Yuan Mu sent someone to ask again, but Scott still asked Yuan Mu to wait for orders. Yuan Mu continued to ask, but Scott was furious and didn't see the person he sent directly.
Scott didn't see anyone, so Yuan Mu wrote a note to ask, but there was still no response.
Yuan Mu directly led the troops and quietly left the Leaping Horse Village, leaving only a letter to Scott. The letter said that because he didn't know the departure date, he would go out to do the task first and come back later. Yuan Muchai Scott will not read the letter either.
--------------------------------------------------------
"My lord, I see someone." On a hillside, Delia reported to Yuan Mu, who was lying on the ground basking in the sun. This is not far from the exit of the Prancing Horse Village, and the view is very good.
"Oh, which one?"
"It's Rego the Conqueror."
"Follow him."
Delia has a good vision, with the help of Urkan and the old hunter's trace, Yuan Mu has been following Rego. Rego and his men didn't notice them.
It wasn't long before Rego was gone, and he joined the other player. After whispering something, the player nodded and rode away.
"Quick, don't let him run. Thor, it's up to you. ”
"Understood." Thor nodded, mounted his horse and quickly chased after the player with two Rangers.
He didn't attack that player, but marked the hunter mark that Yuan Mu had opened from the box on that player.
After a while, Thor and the Ranger returned, telling Yuan Mu that the mission was complete.
The player rode all the way to the edge of Locke's Earldom, presumably learning skills such as riding, and was very fast. Without a hunter marker, Yuan Mu would not be able to chase him.
After running for a long time, this player finally stopped in one place and didn't move. It's a wilderness in the middle of nowhere, not far from the road leading to the city of Knights from Prancing Horse Village.
The time marked by the hunter was almost over, and Yuan Mu saw that he had been staying there, pointed to a place on the map, and said to his subordinates: "This should be the place where the horse thief camp is now." "Horse thief camps are not usually fixed in one place.
"Hehe, then we can do it now just by waiting for the horse thieves to leave the camp and attack the convoy?" Tao Snow smirked.
"Yes." Yuan Mu had already told them the plan, "But before that, you still have to check the strength of the horse thief camp and the surrounding environment. Be careful not to get noticed by them. ”
After investigating, Yuan Mu discovered that two people from the Conqueror's Banner Guild had joined the horse thief camp. You know, this may be wanted, and the cities of the valley have always had the task of clearing out bandits and bandits inside and outside their territories.
If they are discovered, they will not be able to enter the cities of the valley plains, many tasks will not be completed, and many vocational skills-related learning will be very inconvenient.
However, Yuan Mu also guessed that since there were forces on the bright side of the valley plain, there would naturally be forces in the shadows, like the necromancer that Yuan Mu had seen. The Conqueror Banner may want to send some of its guild members to join the forces of the shadows.
If this horse thief attack is successful, the people of the Conqueror Banner will rely on the information provided by Drogen, and their status among the horse thieves will increase. They are heroes again, and they may be able to take full control of this team of horse thieves in the future.
Yuan Mu told his subordinates to rest and prepare for the upcoming battle.
----------------------------------------------------------
Draughon the Conqueror sat in a village tavern where the convoy of horses had just passed.
Rego the Conqueror walked in, sat down beside him, and reported: "Arax has been informed that the horse thief will soon be in action. ”
This is the advantage of the union, which is that two camps or hostile sides can quickly exchange news.
Zhuo Geng took a sip of wine and said slowly: "This is the first big action of our union in the Hero Continent, and it must be successful." ”
"Definitely. Hmph, if it weren't for the ember flash, we would have subdued the players in Knight City a long time ago, and we wouldn't have to spare our energy to do such a troublesome thing. ”
"The people in the Traveler Camp are still very loose, maybe a few are doing well, but the whole will gradually be pulled away by us, especially after the old people of our union can enter this game world. What I'm really worried about is the 'godfather'. ”
"The Godfather?" Rego frowned, "But he is only one person here, what kind of storm can he make." ”
Drogen's appearance was not always elegant, but worried: "The 'Plane Legion' union is much stronger than our Conqueror Banner, and we can only fight against them in the newly opened game world. The 'Godfather' is a person that the Plane Legion has long looked at, and it is too abnormal that there has been no movement. ”
"Haven't we analyzed this world and paid great attention to the accumulation in the early stage? The Plane Legion has never heard of anyone else in the Valley Plains except for the Godfather, and even if the veteran players of the Plane Legion come in the future, we will not be afraid of them for a long time. ”
"I'm just a little worried. This time we must succeed and establish an advantage in the early stage as soon as possible. ”
The Conquistador's Banner Guild isn't just about giving players who join the horse thieves a boost. They have already gathered troops, and after the horse thief hero attacks the strength of the escort team, they directly kill the horse thief hero and completely seize the fruits of victory. Kicking Yuan Mu away was also for fear that the horse thief hero would feel that the strength of the escort team was too strong and give up the attack.
