Chapter 274: Receiving Prizes and Pirate Camps
"Thank you, sir."
The black boy was very polite and bowed to Wang Hao to show his gratitude.
For this moment alone, he received the equivalent of two days' wages, and the day of going to sea was closer, and a heartfelt smile could not help but appear on his dark face.
Wang Hao is not a saint, all he can do is this, seeing the heartfelt smile of the black boy, his mood is not immune to a little impact.
More than ten minutes later, Wang Hao stepped out of the carriage, glanced at the building marked the shipping guild, and happily took the reward to the black boy.
Thinking that the conditions for the construction of the "Golden Merry" could be met immediately, Wang Hao's mood could not help but fluctuate a little.
The Ship's Guild is a sprawling organization founded by the Indigenous people, with branches in many of the world's largest ports, where players can claim quests and earn rewards such as money, rare materials, and even valuable shipbuilding blueprints.
There is a bit of a pitfall, that is, the tasks released here are random, and the key is to look at the face.
For example, Wang Hao received the task of eliminating the pirate Kidd this time, if it wasn't for the accident that some special conditions were met, I am afraid that there would be no trip to the Mediterranean.
Walking into the hall of the ship industry guild, there are a lot of people coming in and out, there are players and NPCs, all of them are busy.
Suddenly, a young black man with a scar on his face suddenly burst in from outside the door, and without looking at the surrounding situation, he rushed through the hall, knocking many people back a few steps.
Wang Hao frowned when he saw this, and quietly took two steps back, avoiding the center of the whirlpool.
Many of the people who were knocked down were immediately angry, pointing at the man and scolding, if it weren't for the fact that this was in the ship industry guild, I am afraid that many people would have to teach this arrogant and rude guy a lesson.
"Deliver the task. I'm going to exchange for that big galley crafting blueprint. ”
The young black man turned a deaf ear to the chatter around him, and stared at the NPC sitting on a high platform.
"This drawing is currently in zero stock, please choose another reward, or wait until a week later to redeem it." The NPC said without looking up at the accounts.
"A week? By then, the daylilies will all be cold. ”
The black young man was obviously very dissatisfied, muttering in his mouth, but the NPC on the other side did not react in the slightest, he withdrew his gaze stupidly, and immediately glared at the players around him viciously. "Look at what, there's a kind of going to the sea to go alone!"
Someone was furious when he saw this, and was about to say yes, but he was grabbed by his companions around him, and heard the latter say, "You are crazy." That man is a scar thief, and ten of you won't be enough for him to fight. ”
The Scar Thief is a well-known pirate player in the Mediterranean. He often travels around the countries of the central Mediterranean to commit crimes. It is said that a certain country once sent a navy to chase after him, but he escaped, so he became famous, and he did not expect to appear here.
After listening to his companion's advice, the man's face really showed a hint of fear, if the other party was just an ordinary player. It's not a big deal to duel with the other party, if you lose, you will pay a little money to repair the ship at most, but if you are targeted by the villain in front of you, then he will always have to be afraid to go to sea in the future.
Scarface looked around for a week. No one dared to look at him, and his face was full of pride and disdain, and it was obvious that he had seen too much of this situation.
He's not the self-proclaimed pirate who hoisted a skull flag at the start of the game, but a real pirate.
In the player's attribute bar, there is a hidden faction attribute, generally players who have just entered the game belong to the neutral camp, with participating in various experiences in the game, accumulating favorability with all parties, and reaching a critical point can join the camp.
This Scarface is a player who has joined the Pirate faction, and one of his titles in his stat bar is the Redbeard Pirate Band.
Don't underestimate this title, in addition to the reward that can bring him two hundred prestige, it can often trigger some strange quests, and more importantly, with this identity, he robs past players and merchant ships, and the cooldown time of the red name can be cut in half.
When encountering the official naval encirclement, you can also ask the pirate group for assistance, and if this kind of treatment is heard by players who have just started to rob, they will be drooling with envy.
But there are also many disadvantages to joining the pirate camp, such as having to complete the tasks posted above every month, the coins robbed will be drawn a quarter from the above, and there are also indicators of the minimum number of robberies uploaded every month, etc., if you fail to meet these requirements three times in a row, you will be kicked out of the camp by the pirate group, and in serious cases, you may even be excluded from the pirate ship to hunt down the player.
In general, joining the pirate camp still has more advantages than disadvantages for those who dream of becoming a great pirate player, Scarface also took a lot of effort at the beginning, plus a little luck, to successfully switch camps, and for those amateur peers, his heart is full of disdain and disdain.
"A bunch of cowards." scolded in a low voice, and then found a place to sit down, I don't know what I was thinking, but I didn't leave directly.
Being stared at by such a fierce man, many people have a feeling of being on their backs, and many people simply quit the inquiry of the shipping industry guild, planning to come back after a while.
There are fewer people in the hall, but it saves Wang Hao the effort of queuing, which can be regarded as an unexpected joy.
"Submit a task." He walked up to the NPC who was writing something, and said lightly.
Only then did he see the name of this NPC, Zal, a senior officer of the Ship Industry Guild, generally speaking, it is not simple to have a name and surname like this.
Zal glanced up as usual, then immediately lowered his head again, and the next moment, he suddenly raised his head again, "Kill the pirate Kidd, oh my God, you actually completed that mission?" ”
Each of these NPCs has their own way of communicating with each other, and some of them are not even much slower than the player's communication, and rumors have spread throughout the upper echelons of the Ship Guild that someone has received the task of killing Pirate Kidd, but none of them think that anyone will be able to complete the task.
As if realizing his gaffe, Zal's face gradually regained his calmness, "Yes, I really don't know how you did it, 800 prestige rewards, well, and 100 points rewards from the Ship Industry Guild, you can see what you need, you should be able to exchange for a lot of useful things." ”
Hearing this, Wang Hao winked at Zhal, judging from this person's tone and demeanor, most of the other party was played by a real person, and his heart couldn't help but move.
Human-life NPCs can be far more flexible than rigid Natives, and the same quest can end up rewarding very different items in the hands of both of them.
"Man, any hints?" Wang Hao lowered his voice and asked.
Zal had made up his mind to pretend that he hadn't heard it, but he found that there was an extra strange item on the desk at some point, so he immediately accepted it quietly, and replied in an inaudible voice: "The reward is no different, but it is the shipping guild points, if you accumulate 200 points and then redeem them, maybe there are some surprises waiting for you." ”
There are too many hidden things in the King of Navigation, and it is impossible for Wang Hao to know everything, such as the doorway in the points of the Ship Industry Guild, he is not too clear, in the previous life, he basically had what to exchange, and there was no room for choice.
"Thank you." Wang Hao arched his hand and planned to withdraw from the shipping industry guild.
"Wait." (To be continued......)
PS: Take a few days off, these days I am too busy with work, and I am busy with the article at night, and the quality will inevitably decline, so let's slow down.
