Chapter 23 Underground Tunnel Opening Strategy-4
Knights of Prontera... That's right! The Knights are the core armed force of Prontera City, and they can freely send troops to enter the homeless village in the name of protecting the safety of the main city, as long as He Xi can find a way to convince the NPCs of the Knights to go to the homeless village with He Xi, then it will be able to restrain this group of "mold homeless" players who cannot attack for a long time!
Use NPCs against NPCs, yes, that's reasonable!
The Order is located in the north-western corner of Prontera, and is heavily guarded by heavily armed soldiers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoAfter He Xi entered the Knights, he first tried to find the NPC who was responsible for managing the underground waterways in the fairyland, but because he didn't know the name of the NPC, he didn't get anything after looking around. In desperation, He Xi could only return to the staff in the service area.
"What's the matter?"
"Hello, I would like to report an important event related to the rise and fall of Prontera, please help me contact the relevant person in charge, thank you."
"Register."
"What?" He Xi didn't react a little.
"Registration. Name, origin, occupation, affiliation, there are more petitioners like you every day, and I hear not 1,000 but 800 cases of rise and fall every day, and I want to report and register. β
"......" He Xi was speechless, and honestly filled in the report to him, and then when he submitted it, He Xi found that there was a bribery option.
it, can you still bribe?? The corners of He Xi's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and then he chose to bribe 500Zeny.
"Well, I'll see... Evil Breaker, from Isrud Island, swordsman, belonging to the Swordsman Guild? Hey? Haha, it turned out to be my own person, come on, come on, smoke a cigarette. The staff was obviously enthusiastic after seeing He Xi's registration form.
System Hint: You got the prop Cheap Cigarettes.
Cheap cigarettes: consumables. After use, it relaxes you, gaining +5% Fear Resistance for 10 minutes, and the effect does not stack.
Under the enthusiastic guidance of the staff, He Xi came to the second floor of the Order, which is the public security management office, which is responsible for maintaining public order in and around Prontera and ensuring a stable life for the people. The person in charge He Xi met was named Pan De.
"Hello, do you have anything to report to the Knights?" Pander asked.
"Yes, I found that some of the homeless people in the homeless village were infected by mold, and some of the homeless people have mutated, and they are extremely aggressive and aggressive. If they are allowed to wreak havoc in the homeless village, I am afraid that a larger scale of infection mutation will be formed, and I hope that the knights can go to the homeless village to deal with this matter. β
"Well... What else? β
β... Also, I suspect that the events in the homeless village are related to some of the recent events on the shores of Lake Grylls, all of which involve disturbing factors such as infections and mutations. β
Pande leaned forward and leaned back on his mount, choosing a comfortable position.
"I mean, it's all happening outside of the city?" He asked.
"Yes."
"Nothing like this is happening in the city, is it?"
ββ¦ No. He Xi faintly felt that something was wrong.
"Okay, there is little skill in breaking evil spirits, I know the situation you reported. I'll send someone to follow it up, you don't have to worry. He smiled professionally, then stood up and sent He Xi out.
"If possible, I would like to go with the Knights, I know the specifics of the situation there and can minimize casualties." He Xi worked hard to fight.
"Oh, you don't have to worry about it, we'll take care of it."
Bang, the door shut. He Xi stepped forward and knocked on the door repeatedly, but there was no response.
β¦ This is, encountered bureaucracy? It is worthy of being the royal capital of the kingdom of Rune-Midgard, and in the face of the "petitioning masses", it shows the warmth of the spring breeze in front of the people, and the behavior of the people who turn a deaf ear.
It cost 500 Zeny, and I didn't get anything, I got a cheap cigarette, is there a mistake!
He Xi was a little depressed, he returned to the hall and tried to report the matter to the other person in charge, and as soon as he went downstairs, a familiar figure flashed in front of his eyes.
It's Yalekuth!
Yalekuth was the instructor He Xi met in the beginner's training ground, and He Xi learned the beginner's skill "playing dead" from him. It can be said that without Yalekus, He Xi would never have had any chance to stand out and become the world's No. 1 person when he changed jobs. Speaking of which, this guy does seem to be a member of the Knights, yes, in the early version of Wonderland, players had to go to the Knights to find him to learn the skill of "playing dead"!
Since they were acquaintances, He Xi immediately greeted him.
"Hello, Instructor Yalekuth!"
"Oh! There is little power to break evil! You've become a swordsman? Not bad, yes, worthy of being a person who is favored by me! Yalekuth was very happy to see He Xi.
"Yes, Instructor Yalegus, thanks to your guidance, I was able to successfully transfer to become a swordsman!"
"Ahaha, it's okay, I did a little bit of trivial work, I'm ashamed. By the way, there are few evil spirits, do you have something to do with the Knights? β
He Xi took the opportunity to repeat the situation to Yalekuth, and after listening, he fell silent, and after a long time, he spoke.
"Hey, there are also complex factional struggles within the Knights, and since they have been handed over to Pande at this time, there will be a lot of trouble if you want to change the person in charge. I know the person Pande, he is from the noble family of Prontera, and he came to the Knights only to be gilded. He himself only cares about matters related to the upper-class people, and when it comes to people's livelihood and law and order issues that have no benefit, he can delay as much as he can. β
"Uh... Instructor Yalekuth, is there no other way? β
Yalecus fell silent again, and after a while, he sighed.
"Hey, although I have always been a fool in the Knights, I am also the representative of the knights of the town of Myorani, and I have taken an oath. Many of the homeless people in the village have come from the Myorani area, and I can't pretend not to see them, and since you have informed me of the situation, I can't stand idly by. Let's go, I'll go with you to Pande. β
With that, Yalekuth led He Xi to Pande's room. Unlike players like He Xi, Yalekuth is an NPC who can push the door directly in, while Pande is in the room assigning tasks to his subordinates.
"Mrs. Warren's cat was lost in the East End, and before the sun goes down today, be sure to find it for me, do you understand? This is the highest priority emergency and you... Kindness? Hey, it's Yalekuth! What are you doing here! β
"Coming for the incident of breaking the evil merit and reporting less."
Pande was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand to drive his subordinates out of the room, closed the door, and invited Yalekuth and He Xi to sit down.
"I have some of the best tea from Feiyang, come and get some?"
"No, Pande, let's get down to business."
Pander retracted his professional smile and rubbed his wrench lightly against his chin.
"Yalekuth, I don't know what you want to talk about."
"You know, Pan De, the situation that I have reported to you is the mold infection and mutation incident in the homeless village."
"Ouch, Arekuth, why are you doing the same! In summer, the heat is hot and muggy, especially in the first two days of rain, and it is normal for mold to grow. The poor sanitation conditions in the homeless village naturally make it much higher for people living there to be infected with mold, but if you have to go to the nursing college for this kind of problem, what's the use of looking for me? What else, mutant outcasts? I said you, don't always want to make a big news, and then criticize Prontera's security. I'm telling you, I've been through a lot of battles, and I've seen a lot! β
"......" He Xi was speechless.
"Pande, don't come to me with this rhetoric. You can not care if the homeless people in the homeless village live or die, but I care. I believe that there is little merit in breaking evil spirits, and I implore you to send a team of soldiers to the homeless village to investigate this matter thoroughly, and I will personally lead the team and gamble on the honor of my knights. β
Pande gave a smirk that seemed to be a smile rather than a smile, and he applauded mockingly.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that Yalekuth, who has always been a child, would be so serious? Since you opened your mouth, of course I won't refute your face, and I will send the soldiers. So, what if nothing happens? You know, sending soldiers to the homeless village for no reason will cause a lot of unnecessary speculation and panic, and the impact will be very bad? β
"If nothing is found, I, Yalekuth, will be at your disposal."
He Xi didn't expect Yalekus to have such a face, and he actually forcibly asked for soldiers from Pande. From entering the Knights to leaving the Knights, He Xi feels that he is not playing a game, he is completely immersed in the plot, and the dialogues and reactions of each character are not a simple one-line design, and the characters are as realistic as flesh and blood.
It was too different from the games he had played before, and He Xi felt that he had not fully adapted to it.
Bite~! System prompt: Do you accept the task [Movement of the Displaced Village] entrusted by Yalekuth?
The task has appeared, accepted!
He Xi and Yalekusi came to the homeless village together, and in a familiar corner, He Xi once again heard the woman's cry for help.
"There is a situation, be on alert!" Yalekuth's expression became solemn, and he ordered the soldiers to enter the state of alert.
Following the traces on the ground, the group came to the door of the wooden house, and a soldier came forward and knocked on the door.
It was the homeless woman who opened the door, still holding a kitchen knife, and two-thirds of her face was covered in mold.
"Hmm... Hello gentlemen... Would you like to come in and take a break? β
"Get on the ground! Drop the weapon! The soldier facing her shouted in horror, and he raised his halberd to the woman, his hand trembling.
"Oh... Don't do it... Stupid... In... Waitβ" she replied blankly.
"Don't move! Drop the weapon! β
"We... We just wish there were some... Guest... Please... Come in..."
"Throw away your weapons! Refugee! β
There was a slight sound of the door closing from the depths of the cabin, and Yalekuth yelled that it was not good.
"Attack! Take everyone in the house down, I'm going to live! β
The soldiers quickly subdued the homeless woman and swam in. There were the roars and screams of mutant homeless people in the house, and the noisy fighting sounds were endless, He Xi chose to stand outside the door and wait, he didn't want to be injured and killed by mistake. Half a minute later, he heard Yalekuth calling out to him.
