Chapter 270 Just started, people have already crossed the line [Asking for a guaranteed monthly pass]
[May Day, double. Have fun! Incidentally...... Remember to apply for a monthly pass~~~γ
Xiao Ling knelt solemnly and remained silent.
This is the most critical moment, and there must be no air leak. I just saved my life by luck in front, and whether I can stay in this town where there is obviously a plot depends on this moment.
The conflict between black and white, cold and heat, good and evil, goes on like this......
For dozens of seconds, the old priest had a slightly surprised but satisfied expression on his face.
At the same time, a system prompt popped up in the minds of the four of them.
Looking at the content of the system prompt, the four of them were speechless: You are the master!
[Congratulations, Shun lΓ¬ has gained the trust of everyone in Clermont Town and completed the undercover infiltration mission! You get 10 world currencies. γ
You have gained 1000 XP. You have earned 333 Copper Manifest Coins. γ
The latter, of course, is the base-excellent-excellent-small-say-more-new-most-fast-WWW.UUXS.CC-base value, because it continues to be Xiao Ling's leading response, or he x2.5, others x1.5.
The important thing is, of course, not that the reward is so small, but the sentence "completed the undercover infiltration mission". In other words, all the actions that everyone had done to please the townspeople in order to save their lives and not be suspected became part of the undercover plan.
I thought it was a mission to choose a faction, but it turned out only! Is it foreplay for Project Infernal Affairs? This twist is too fast and urgent, which makes people a bit dramatic.
[The bandits' raid on Clermont was not actually a robbery. In fact, on the contrary, with this raid on TongguΓ², they managed to leave something "something" in the town. Your task is to find them and collect them. Prepare for the next move. Time limit, three days. It can't be done in three days. The task failed. γ
Just now, because I won the trust, I thought it was safe for the time being. Again, my heart was raised......
It's the first time Xiao Ling has seen such a mission, the plot is flipped, the rhythm changes, and since entering, there is almost no respite.
The crowd completed their baptism in a slight dizziness. Cheers, applause, hugs from siblings, and warmth like a family......
While they've completed the lengthy ritual here, the townsfolk are nearing the end of cleaning up the battlefield and cleaning up the mess on the other side.
All the injured were housed, even the horse hounds. The wounded on the townspeople's side were concentrated in the wounded and sick camp. The robbers' captives were kept in prison.
All the victims have also been or will be resettled. The robbers left a dozen corpses, the ordinary robbers dug pits and buried them, and the fallen heretics were strung into sugar gourds and hung at the intersection outside the town as a sign of deterrence.
The horses with the highest number of deaths are the focus. Skilled adults in the town slaughtered animals went out en masse, skinning, bloodletting, cutting meat, and deboning...... Dispose of the corpse as quickly as possible so that it does not go to waste due to decay.
As time goes on, clean up the battlefield and count losses. Placement of the sick and wounded...... The people have completed the task at hand one after another, and they have all gathered here to help.
Although various treatments have been processed, thirty or forty horses died, or were seriously injured and dying. There is no point in reviving the carcasses of horses, but there are still mountains of unmanageable parts.
What about this part?
I made it and ate it, and I could do as much as I could. Eat as much as you can.
A large cauldron was set up, salt, spices, bay leaves, firewood...... People sang a repose to soothe the souls of the dead. While devoting himself to the great cause of cooking.
Someone is sad, but more often than not, happy. Because...... In this conflict that should have been a disaster. Not only did they not lose, but they also earned. The robbers did take a lot of things, but compared to what they left behind...... What a good deed they do every day!
The spoils of the villagers were not only dead, but also alive - horses lost in the town because of the chaos of the fighting. Afterwards, there were more than a dozen horses.
In the end, five horses were given to the families of the victims, four horses were given to Xiao Ling, who warned in advance, and the rest belonged to the town guards.
The townspeople have obviously experienced a lot of wind and rain like this, and they have handled it in an orderly manner.
It was getting late, looking at the bonfire that was gradually rising, listening to the noise of joy or sorrow in all directions, and smelling the smell of meat wafting in the air, Xiao Ling and the others took advantage of the gap to discuss while dealing with the greetings of the townspeople checking their household registration.
Ling Wulin: "What should we do next?" β
Li Tianxiao: "What else can I do?" Follow the three clues given by the juggernaut, looking for something? β
Wendy: "Finding things is secondary, I think the most important problem to solve now is that guy......" His eyes turned in one direction. There, the NPCs who had been with them were salivating at the meat cooker, salivating and dripping to their feet. Unlike the transcendents who entered this world halfway, he was a real captive, a native, who had been imprisoned in prison for this time, apparently starving.
Wendi said gloomily: "You say, we are actually undercover agents, does he know?" Will it be ......"
The NPC's name is Ethan. He seemed to notice this gaze, and greeted everyone with a smile on his face. His life can be preserved, all thanks to Xiao Ling, at least on the surface.
He was baptized just now without him, not that he was not good in battle. Rather, he is a true believer and has been baptized.
"Don't worry, he certainly doesn't know." Looking at Ethan's expression, Xiao Ling said conclusively.
But the problem is that he doesn't know now, and he may not know in the future...... With the habit of dominating, it is impossible to make the undercover mission complete so smoothly. There will definitely be twists and turns, and I think the one who is most likely to go wrong is him. β
There is some truth to that. I didn't know, but I couldn't stand the juggernaut who wanted him to know; Originally, there was no problem, but I couldn't stand the juggernaut trying to make him have a problem.
Killing this person one step ahead of time will nip this possibility in the bud. This is possible, and it is also a measure that is often used by senior students to clear customs.
But Xiao Ling still shook his head.
Wendi was a little unconvinced. When there is no Xiao Ling, he is usually the brains of the team. But today, he is behind Xiao Ling everywhere. He also thought that Xiao Ling was deliberately contrarian, until Xiao Ling said the reason.
"We are now the Liu Tianwang in Infernal Affairs...... Do you want to continue to be undercover? Still ......" Xiao Ling didn't finish speaking, but who the transcendents were, he instantly understood.
Or do you want to kill all the people who know your identity, wash your name directly, and then be uncontrolled by others?
As soon as this mention came out, everyone instantly understood the meaning of leaving Ethan. Juggernaut usually doesn't do that kind of inexplicable setting, and there is often a deep reason for issuing inexplicable tasks, and things that seem unreasonable.
This should be no exception.
So, what is the reason why the people who have already gained the trust of the townspeople and successfully received the baptism still have to accept the order of the undercover agent to continue Infernal Affairs?
For a while, everyone had only one reason - the handle, and nine times out of ten, they still had the handle in the hands of the robbers, and they had to continue to accept the blackmail.
Ethan may have known what kind of blackmail it was; Even if he didn't know, he should be able to get more information about the robbers from his mouth, if they wanted to attack the robbers according to Xiao Ling's suggestion
"Actually, we can get in touch with the other side and ask them if they have gained anything from the bandits' den. Even if you don't, you can ask them to inquire, the cause and effect of the matter? Wen Dijian said.
"Yes, indeed." Xiao Ling nodded, "But ...... Do you have a way to communicate with them remotely? β
Several people were silent for a moment. Several of them are on a team, and there must be a way to get in touch, but ...... Items, equipment, and consumable props have all been sealed, and only skills remain, and the interconnection of skills is relatively high-end.
"Unless the distance is within a kilometer." Several people looked at each other. One kilometer is not close, but in this kind of large-scale roundabout battle between the enemy and us, it is not enough to see at all.
"I'm going to get in touch with that guy and see if I can ask something?" Ling Wulin clapped his hands and stood up, he had a friendship with that Ethan, and he had protected him when the transcendent escaped from prison. Although he was afraid that the fight would delay the task, that guy didn't know that he was most grateful to Ling Wulin.
"So decided? Ignore the task of dominating, find out why we are being blackmailed, and never suffer again? Li Tianxiao said.
"How is that possible!" Before Xiao Ling could speak, Wen Di had already shouted, and glared at Li Tianxiao with hatred, "The task still has to be done, even if you don't want to reward it, you can get more information about the mission in the process." in order to more accurately judge the intention of the juggernaut. β
"What we need to do now is to have a long mind and think about whether there are any clues that may be used that are beneficial to the task. Analyze the plot and judge the difficulty...... It can't be said which line you have to work towards, it depends on the evaluation of the final reward, which will be higher. β
Xiao Ling nodded slightly: That's what it means.
Looking at Wen Di's eyes that were full of I won't let you steal the limelight, he touched his nose and smiled helplessly: "That...... Everyone, the first thing I think I've found. "Reasoning one.
ββ¦β¦β
Everyone looked at him in amazement, especially Wen Di, whose face was full of shock, as if he had just started and found that someone else had crossed the line; I just started the exam, and I found that someone else had already submitted the paper.
The three things that the master mission makes it difficult to find, in fact, are not so easy. It's not just a matter of being trapped in an enemy camp and not daring to act rashly. In fact, people don't even know what the three things are, and all they get are vague clues, like riddles.
Holiness is not pure, holy light is not absolute, just as the stronger the sun, the more visible the shadows, and the stricter the vows, the more beautiful the indulgence. Follow the alluring scent that fills the air......
"This clue happens to be my best sense of smell, so ......" Xiao Ling shrugged and spread his hands.
Rub, even if it's what you're good at, we haven't guessed what the mystery is. Several people complained in unison, in their hearts. (To be continued......) R1292
