Chapter 246: The Romance Brought by Riding a Pet
St. Yao City, post station.
Originally, as a fixed facility of the system city, the post station has a very low sense of existence for players, it is mainly for NPCs to provide services, there are rental carriages to other cities, and players deal with post stations, basically the needs of tasks, such as special escort missions.
Missions are rare, so there are very few players who usually come to the station, but today the situation is very different.
The post house, located outside the city gate, has been surrounded by players who have rushed to the station after hearing the news, and they have gathered in front of the counter of the new trading shop at the post station, competing to buy a highly practical riding pet.
The crowd of the Raising Eyebrows team came relatively early, and the system has intelligent expansion settings, so everyone easily queued up to the front.
Behind the long counters are tall shelves with a dazzling array of metal nameplates, roughly the same size, but in different colors such as gold, silver, yellow, and gray.
These metal nameplates represent a head of riding pets, the quality is high and low, and the price is of course very different.
The level of riding pets is divided into nine levels, from 1 star to 9 stars in the name of stars, because all riding pets are not able to fight directly, so their quality is mainly in speed, endurance, physique and natural ability.
The higher the star level, the higher its running speed, continuous running time, and HP, and it has certain natural support abilities, which is of great help to players.
The highest pet sold in the post shop is 5 stars, and the lowest is 1 star. The latter is the most numerous, and they are basically low-level beasts such as jujube red horses, and the price is only 5 gold.
As for the highest 5-star unicorns, demon giant wolves, saber-toothed tigers, etc., the price is as high as 1,000 gold, which is equivalent to more than 100,000 yuan.
There is no doubt that this is an important means for the official "Radiance" to recover in-game currency, and the riding pet is not always available after buying, it must be equipped with vehicle equipment, and you have to buy feed for feeding.
The original stables of the inn have been converted into animal pens, and hundreds of riding pets are free-range according to different star ratings for players to choose from. Pure white, holy and beautiful unicorns attract the attention of female gamers the most. The majestic saber-toothed tiger and demon giant wolf are favored by male compatriots.
In contrast, those 1-star and 2-star riding pets have completely become a foil for passers-by.
"Husband, I want a unicorn!"
Different sounds. Same appeal. In the crowd of onlookers, they appeared one after another.
Among the players who came to buy a riding pet. Many of them are real-life or in-game couples.
A pet can allow up to two people to ride together, and it is definitely a very romantic thing to be able to gallop in the endless wilderness with your sweetheart.
But a high-star riding pet. The price is really too unromantic.
"Unicorns are too expensive, can you change them to white-maned horses, you see they are actually about the same."
Except for a very small number of local tyrant-level players, most of the husbands are Alexander.
"Humph! Can a 5-star riding pet be similar to a 2-star one? Even if you can't afford a unicorn, you have to buy me a 4-star one, and if you don't have any money, go earn it! ”
"4 stars also cost 200 gold, I think 2 stars is not bad, can you use it first?"
"Why did the old lady find you this wreck, don't do it, you can sleep with the white-maned horse by yourself!"
Fortunately, there are not many unreasonable couples, otherwise the pet shop would have turned into a breakup scene.
Pieces of beast mounts sealed with riding pets were sold, and the money in the pockets of the players returned to the pockets of the system gods.
The Beast Riding Card is a special piece of equipment, and after being worn on the body, it can be used in exactly the same way as the Hero Badge, and it can be summoned directly when you need to use it.
A Berserker player left the counter, turned and walked out of the queue, summoning the mount pet in the nearby clearing, and it was a unicorn with a faint white glow all over its body.
"Wow!"
Under the envious and hateful gaze of countless people, the berserker put on a set of silver-white ornate harness for the unicorn, and then skillfully turned on the horse.
The next moment, a beautiful priestess came out of the crowd and with a shy smile grabbed the warrior's hand, which the latter easily pulled to the horse.
The two of them rode against each other and rushed into the field ahead, galloping like the wind, and in an instant only small dots could be seen in the distance.
"It's so romantic!" A lot of female gamers have stars in their eyes.
Of course, more male players scolded this ostentatious berserker half to death in their hearts.
People are more popular than people, and it's better if there is no comparison, but now that there is a comparison, they are in big trouble.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Xi asked Lin Mei: "Do you want me to buy a unicorn with you?" ”
1000 Jin Zhao Xi will definitely not be able to get it now, but if you sell two pieces of excellent equipment, the problem is not very big.
Lin Mei also likes unicorns, but she still shook her head and said: "It's too expensive, I don't need to buy it when I'm in the city, at most I can buy a jujube red horse." ”
She is a person who is used to careful calculations, how can she be willing to spend so much money to buy a furnishing, although the jujube red horse is the worst 1-star, but the traffic in the system city is enough.
Zhao Xi smiled and shook his head, and asked the guy in the store to bring him a beast tag with a silver-winged horse sealed.
The Silver Wing Horse is a 3-star riding pet, with a HP of 1500 points and a running speed of 55, although there is no additional natural ability, both the attributes and the appearance are quite good, and the price of 80 gold is also acceptable.
Spend another 20 gold to buy a set of horse harness, and all of them are alive.
Like most players who bought the riding pet, Zhao Xi also summoned the Silver Wing Horse, mounted the harness and rode it, and also stretched out his hand to Lin Mei.
In front of everyone's eyes, Lin Mei glanced at him with disgust, but he still obediently put his little hand in Zhao Xi's palm and let him pull the horse back into his arms.
"Take your time!"
Zhao Xi smiled and said to Fang Xu and the others who were still choosing: "Me and Meimei left first!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he clamped the horse's belly with both legs, and the reins he held in his left hand shook lightly and slapped on the horse's neck.
Although he is not the kind of rich second generation who is rich, he used to learn equestrianism when he was in the border guards, and often patrols on war horses, and now he has no problem driving the simplistic mounts in the game.
"The old squad leader is really good to my sister-in-law!"
Lan Qiao watched the two leave with envy, and then glanced at Xiong Bin: "When will you be able to be so good to me?" ”
Xiong Bin scratched his head, smiled and didn't answer, he didn't know how to answer the right one.
"Stupid!"
Lan Qiao stepped on him hatefully, and then hugged his arm again: "Let's buy a white-maned horse." ”
The White-Maned Horse is a 2-star riding pet and costs only 20 gold.
Buying mounts is also very beneficial to the team, so Lin Mei gave all members of the Raising Eyebrows team a reimbursement of 10 gold each, and if you want to buy a better one, you have to pay for it yourself.
The two of them add up to just 20 gold, and buying a white-maned horse is undoubtedly the best choice, and it doesn't cost much to pair it with cheap harness.
As for Fang Xu and the six Ye family brothers, after discussion, they all bought 3-star Qingqi Wolf.
And when they were buying riding pets, Zhao Xi took Lin Mei to gallop on the green grassy wilderness.
Although it is said that the day and night are relative in reality, but the time for the two to be alone in the game is really very little, facing the strong wind in the face, feeling the thick and solid support behind him, Lin Mei's originally somewhat nervous mood quickly relaxed.
But before he had gone far, the Silverwing suddenly slowed down and stopped.
Lin Mei was a little strange, straightened up and turned his head to look at Zhao Xi: "What's wrong?" ”
Zhao Xi reached out and hugged her willow waist, lowered his head and kissed her lips.
Lin Mei, who was suddenly attacked, snorted and struggled weakly twice, and then lost himself in his arms.
The wind from afar, blowing through the vast wilderness, unconsciously added a touch of romantic and warm atmosphere.
