Chapter 293: If only as first seen
While the other players were busy looking for the Seven Swords Sword Master, Mo Qianying and his party finally entered the Yuquan Pass area. Although Yuquan Pass sounds like a pass, it is actually a very large main city. In comparison, the first-level main city of Yunyang City is only half the size of it, and in terms of game background information, Yuquan Pass is the first line of defense in the northwest region.
Different from the desolation of the northwest area all the way, for those who are used to seeing the yellow sand all the way, this place is comparable to the colorful main cities of the Jiangnan water town, which is mixed with the unique ruggedness of the northwest area, so that the city of Yuquanguan reveals a unique beauty.
Unlike the main cities in other regions, Yuquan Pass is divided into three layers of walls from the inside to the outside, with the outermost being the highest and thickest layer, and beyond it are scattered small villages. From a distance, you can see some NPCs gathering together to form some small markets, which seem to be a thriving scene.
Along the way, Mo Qianying and the others saw a lot of patrolling system guards, and they could also see a lot of passers-by NPCs of different shapes carrying out their own activities. They were very surprised by Mo Qianying and the others, and everywhere they passed, there were voices of discussion, and some NPCs could even be heard talking about their identities.
Even though he was somewhat accustomed to the interaction in the game, but once again feeling the details brought by this kind of scene interaction, Mo Qianying still had to sigh at how powerful the virtual world of the Oneiroi system was.
Among the five people, except for Mo Qianying, who was more familiar with Yuquan Pass with his memory, the other four all had extremely surprised expressions. Yan Rumei still needs some, after all, he is also a person who has traveled south and north to see the world, and he is not like an ordinary little girl shouting. It's just that the other three ordinary little girls are different, and their screaming never stops along the way.
"Okay guys, stop shouting!" Yan Rumei covered her ears and shouted at Tong'er and the others, and then glared at Mo Qianying, who was smiling next to her, "You don't talk about them, this shouting looks too stupid!" ”
"Let them go!" Mo Qianying shrugged, "I wasn't much better than them when I first arrived here, and besides, this place is really shocking. As he spoke, he looked up at the exaggerated hundred-foot-high walls of Yuquan Pass and the majestic city gate.
"At the beginning?" Yan Rumei was stunned for a moment, "Have you been here before?" Impossible! Isn't this a recent opening? Can you still fly here? ”
Mo Qianying realized that she had missed her mouth, and coughed lightly and fooled: "I've seen a little information, so I have some impressions of this place, there is already information on the official forum that can be checked, don't you know?" ”
Yan Rumei glanced at him angrily: "If I can connect to the forum, I still need to stay in this broken game, and I would have already greeted the eighteen generations of the ancestors of the game operating company on it." Saying that, he snorted coldly, and walked forward directly, as if he didn't want to pay attention to Mo Qianying anymore.
Mo Qianying pursed her lips, seeing that she didn't dwell on this issue anymore, she also chose to be silent, saving her from being interested again.
In front of them was the entrance to the first city wall, and the feeling of oppression brought by the huge city gate made the five of them feel like their hairs were standing on end, and even their heartbeats couldn't help but speed up a little. They can even see the traces left by the siege on the city walls, which can vaguely show how tragic the siege battle was at that time.
Guarding both sides of the gate are the lowest level soldiers of Yuquan Pass, but even the most basic guards are some level 70 elite units. The player's side claims to be a million-dollar elite, and it's just a joke in front of these NPC guards, and any squad can probably beat a medium-sized guild to the point of confusion.
Unlike the NPC guards in the Central Plains, Yuquan Pass is the last group of opponents before the player enters the national war zone, and in response, their AI has also been strengthened by the Oneiroi system, which far surpasses the main city guards of the same level in terms of writing ability and combat logic.
Mo Qianying knew how powerful this group of guys were, so after he took a look, he lowered his head and didn't look at them, for fear that a single look would arouse the vigilance of this group of masters, and then die tragically under their knives for no apparent reason.
The five of them walked through the city gate with the flow of people entering the city and walked directly into the main road of the outer city of Yuquan Pass. As with most first-class cities, the main road was wide enough for twelve chariots to ride side by side, and the crowds of people gathered at the junctions on either side and dispersed at the intersections, making it seem bustling with activity.
Mo Qianying looked at the sandbags and horses hidden in the alleys on both sides, and then looked at the reserved grooves on the ground, and could imagine the role of these things when the city gate was breached. Although it seems difficult for players to imagine whether preventing these rudimentary obstacles in the main city can still be effective when such a main city is breached, the system obviously does not care so much.
Since Tong'er's task was to hand over the secret letter directly to the guards of Yuquan Pass, they could only wait until the second gate was opened before they could enter smoothly. It was still under the control of the second gate, so they could only find a temporary place to stay and wait for the evening before they could enter the inner city smoothly.
The first of the five to leave was Yan Rumei, a temporary worker, who said a simple goodbye to Tong'er and the three of them, and then rolled her eyes at Mo Qianying and disappeared into the crowd in style. Although Yan Rumei's attitude towards Mo Qianying was very bad along the way, she and Tong'er got along unexpectedly well, and both parties were somewhat reluctant to part with each other.
For this guy, Mo Qianying can only give an unorganized and undisciplined evaluation, after all, compared to her idle style all day long, those who are born and die for the organization can be regarded as industry models.
After bidding farewell to Yan Rumei, Mo Qianying and the four of them found an inn to bind the resurrection point. Since they were the first players to arrive here, they gained 1,000 Yuquan Pass reputation at the same time as they were bound. The innkeeper changed his attitude towards them on the spot, and was so enthusiastic that they felt that when they came in, they were simply disgusted beggars.
Reputation in the main city is a good thing no matter where you are, after all, the reputation of the main city directly affects the attitude of NPCs towards you, and even triggers for some special quests. Therefore, Mo Qianying naturally did not refuse the enthusiasm from the shopkeeper, after all, if they were not careful, they might receive some terrible task from him.
However, this hope was just a thought, and Mo Qianying naturally didn't think that any innkeeper would provide any valuable task. After briefly asking about the time when the city gate was opened, the four of them agreed on a meeting time, and then went their separate ways.
Mo Qianying didn't want to go anywhere because she had been a nanny all the way, so she stayed in the inn and ordered a table of wine and food, ready to take a good rest.
Just as he was about to enjoy his leisure time, a voice that he was very familiar with suddenly sounded outside the door of the inn. The voice had been carved into his soul so much that when he heard it, his heart felt as if it had been hammered, and the hand holding the glass trembled for a moment, and then he looked out the door with incredible eyes.
"I told you not to run, did you hear that!"
The woman in white chased a thin man with a roe head and a rat and rushed in, and she waved a sword, which happened to pick up the thin man's right hand, and directly picked out a money bag.
The thin man wailed and rolled aside holding his injured right hand, and the woman in white raised her hand to grab the money bag, then turned around and handed it to a middle-aged woman chasing behind her, and then showed a bright smile.
Mo Qianying, who witnessed all this, slowly stood up, the wine glass in his hand slipped from his fingers, and fell to the ground and spilled the wine. Mo Qianying looked at the white-clothed girl in front of her with stunned eyes, her eyes trembled a little, and she murmured unconsciously:
"Lin Yan ......"
