Chapter 23: Accepting the Bounty (Plea Collection)
Behind the Lyka City Lord's Mansion is a vast forest, but this is also a must for Zhao Xiaoan and Meixu. You can't fly in the city, but you won't be restricted in the forest. It can fly at will under conditions under its own control.
Mei Xu and Zhao Xiaoan also walked from the bridge to the auxiliary road next to the City Lord's Mansion, and they only needed to cross a river, because last night's wine shop was also located next to the City Lord's Mansion near the river, and it was not too far.
Zhao Xiaoan saw that the so-called City Lord's Mansion was only in name, of course, there would be no real human players as city lords in it, in Zhao Xiaoan's imagination, it should be just an NPC controlled by the system to control all the hardware facilities in the city, ensure its normal operation, and maintain order in the city.
Zhao Xiaoan and the two walked to the auxiliary road on the right, and sighed: The City Lord's Mansion is worthy of being a treasure of feng shui surrounded by mountains and rivers.
The City Lord's Mansion will occasionally issue some bounty quests to increase the fun of the game, and correspondingly, there will be more gold. It's more powerful than the ordinary monsters in the mountains, so you must do what you can when you take the bounty, otherwise you will lose your wife and soldiers in the end, and the gains outweigh the losses.
As for the vast areas outside the city, there will naturally be a chance of rare Warcraft, and there is no need to go to the city again to accept the bounty, and the city releases the bounty task to mobilize the enthusiasm of players.
When Zhao Xiaoan used to brush alone, there were countless rewards received by one person, but now that Meixu is following, it also has an extra guarantee.
Mei Xu's bow and arrow with his own spear can be said to be a perfect match, and Zhao Xiaoan can give Mei Xu his back at ease. And Zhao Xiaoan will naturally help Meixu resolve the danger.
Zhao Xiaoan walked in front, suddenly turned around, and wanted to ask Meixu to go to the City Lord's Mansion to see if there was any suitable reward task, and it was also a matter of luck, because the simple one was taken over early, and the one that was too difficult was not very safe.
And as soon as Zhao Xiaoan turned around, Mio almost bumped into herself.
Mei Xu was also taken aback: "What are you doing?" Suddenly stopped..."
Zhao Xiaoan: "It's you who follow too closely... Why don't we pick up a bounty? But I'm not in a hurry. ”
Mio said, "It's up to you." ”
Zhao Xiaoan was slightly surprised: Why is this woman so obedient today? It's really rare.
But Zhao Xiaoan felt that it was better to be obedient, otherwise if he was disobedient when hunting Warcraft, he would drag himself down.
Zhao Xiaoan said: "Okay, let's enter through the side door of the auxiliary road on the right, the first floor of the City Lord's Mansion is the bounty bar, let's go and see it first, if there is a suitable one, we can take it." ”
Mio also agreed without thinking.
Zhao Xiaoan walked in front, Mei Xu followed behind him, there were many people coming in and out along the way, and there were also people who asked for directions, and there seemed to be people who invited them to form a team to hunt the Warcraft team together, and there were also people discussing the assignment of the next tasks.
Zhao Xiaoan and Mei Xu would also be accosted on the road, asking them if they wanted to form a team together, but they were also rejected by Zhao Xiaoan, even in the novice village, Zhao Xiaoan would not easily hand over his back to others now.
Soon, Zhao Xiaoan and Mei Xu also arrived at the hall of the City Lord's Mansion on the first floor. The hall on the first floor of the City Lord's Mansion is very wide, and dozens of crystal chandeliers illuminate the interior. Dozens of golden pillars support the City Lord's Mansion, and according to Zhao Xiaoan's estimate, it is not a problem to accommodate tens of thousands of people on the first floor alone.
There are already hundreds of people in the hall in front of hundreds of bounty columns, picking out the tasks that suit them. There are also people who sit on the sofa in the hall and rest, perhaps they have just handed over the task and will be very tired after receiving the bounty. Of course, even worse, there will occasionally be conflicts due to the unfair distribution of gold coins or equipment after forming a team.
Zhao Xiaoan doesn't care about these trivial things, and now, gradually improving his own level is the key.
Zhao Xiaoan took Mei Xu to turn around in front of some bounty bars with fewer onlookers, and the few people seemed to be more difficult rewards, and found that there were 3rd order demonic beasts, 4th order magical beasts, and there were countless first-order and second-order monsters.
However, there is no fifth-order demonic beast, and it may be that he is unwilling to dissuade novices from taking into account the limitations of the novice's strength.
Zhao Xiaoan considered whether it was the first time to accept the task, or to practice his hands first, and gradually cultivate the tacit understanding between the two people, and then accept the advanced task, then it was also conventional thinking.
Zhao Xiaoan felt that it was the first time to practice with a third-order Warcraft, but he also planned to ask for Meixu's opinion first, "Meixu-chan, we will cooperate for the first time, for the sake of safety, let's practice first, how many levels of Warcraft do you think is appropriate?" ”
Mio heard Xiao Anran ask her opinion, of course she was willing to make a little suggestion, "I think it's the third order, right?" After all, it's the first time, and I'm not very proficient yet, the 4th level is a bit high, and the 2nd level may not be very challenging. ”
Zhao Xiaoan: "I really don't have much experience for the first time, it's better to be safe, then a third-order demonic beast, just find a bounty task to take it." ”
Mio also nodded in agreement. The bounty list for Tier 3 Warcraft is quite detailed: the name of Warcraft, the bounty coin, the location, and the recommended weapons. This also makes it possible for some players to team up to complete missions, which also makes the game more interactive.
Zhao Xiao'an turned around and stopped next to the No. 37 task bar, which were all 3-order Warcraft, a total of 6 Warcraft bounty lists, Zhao Xiaoan looked at the first one and wrote: Deep Water Crocodile, 3rd order, bounty gold coins, two thousand, located in a lake 15 kilometers north of the forest behind the City Lord's Mansion. The recommended weapon is a powerful armor-piercing weapon.
Zhao Xiaoan felt that this task was quite good, the location was not too far, and the difficulty of the task was moderate, and the weapons seemed to be more suitable.
Zhao Xiaoan looked at Mei Xu and said, "Mei Xu, is this the task?" ”
Mio: "I think so. ”
So Zhao Xiaoan pressed his fingerprint, received the task of the City Lord's Mansion from the system interface, and paid a deposit of 500. So that some people don't do the task after taking it, and at the same time waste the time of other players.
After Zhao Xiaoan completed the procedures for receiving the task, he also walked out of the side gate of the City Lord's Mansion with Mei Xu, and walked to the left, and the end of the auxiliary road was the place to enter the forest, so there were three roads in total, but the difference was not big.
After Zhao Xiaoan and Mei Xu left the city, they immediately opened their wings and wanted to fly in the northerly direction of the forest, and the speed of the flight was very fast, that is, about 15 minutes of flight, which was not difficult. Good enough to fly overnight.
After a while, Zhao Xiaoan and Mei Xu arrived at the location of the bounty task and stopped at a distance of 100 meters to watch. We must not be in a hurry to do the task, we must first observe the surrounding terrain, plan the tactics of the mission, and have a command. Even if you can't beat it, you can evacuate quickly. This is also the most basic essentials of playing as a high player, and then knowing yourself and knowing your opponent will win all battles.
This time, the third-order crocodile didn't seem to be particularly difficult at first glance, but in order to simulate the tactical cooperation in the future, Zhao Xiaoan still decided to go through all the processes.
After Zhao Xiaoan and Mei Xu gently stopped on the tree a hundred meters away, Zhao Xiaoan said, "Mei Xu, will you listen to me for the next tactics?" Zhao Xiaoan also went straight to the topic and didn't plan to talk nonsense.
Mio said, "Yes." ”
Zhao Xiaoan still complained in his heart: Do you want to die if you say one more word?
"Although the bounty this time is a crocodile, there will already be other magical beasts in the forest, so we should also pay attention to our backs when attacking."
"Understood."
"This time it's in the forest, so we'll have the advantage of the terrain, and if we can't beat it, we can fly into the trees and avoid the crisis for a while, so we have to adapt to it."
"Understood."
"Of course, I'll attack at close range with a spear, and you can use a bow and arrow to assist me, and it's also high-class to move and shoot through his armor."
"Understood."
"I let you quit, you must retreat, I will be the commander this time, if you are more suitable in the future cooperation, then we will switch roles."
"Understood." Mio listened quite seriously.
Zhao Xiaoan finally nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, then we will set off, but we can't startle the snake and alarm the other monsters as little as possible."
In addition to the bounty in the forest, there will naturally be other ordinary monsters, and the high-yielding timberwolves in this forest, although the strength of the single body is not strong, it is only the second order, but the wolves that act together should not be underestimated.
"In addition to timberwolves, there are also monster rabbits, squirrels, snakes, and deer, but after all, there are not many but you have to be careful, and you can kill them if necessary, although there are not many gold coins..."
At this time, Mio suddenly interjected, "Bunnies are so cute, why do you want to beat them?" ”
Zhao Xiaoan: ...
"Okay, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and go, I hope I can earn a little more gold coins today..."Zhao Xiaoan took the lead and slowly touched forward, and Mei Xu also followed behind, her true nature was inadvertently exposed just now, and now her face is a little red.
90 meters
80 meters...
30 meters, in the dense forest, you can already see a small lake in front of you, fortunately you didn't meet other monsters along the way, and Zhao Xiao'an was extremely lucky in his opinion.
The closer you get to the lake, the wetter the air becomes, and you can see small bugs burrowing out of the soil. If you look closely, the water is relatively turbid, and the smell of blood and rot is mixed in the air, making people sick.
If it's raining, the smell will be even stronger. There are many corpses of monsters by the lake, there are many corpses of wolves, rabbits, deer...
"Ah, my sweet bunny, so pitiful..."
Zhao Xiaoan: ... Don't talk, do you want to die?
Meixu was suddenly so fierce by Zhao Xiao'an, she still suddenly lost her temper, but her appearance when she was wronged was still very moving.
It should be that the crocodile has not finished eating and has rotted on the shore.
Just looking around the lake like this, there is no crocodile shadow, and it is presumably not easy to show up. When Zhao Xiao'an and the others got closer, it might launch a sudden attack somewhere, catching those who approached it off guard.
Zhao Xiaoan: They had to get a little closer to lure it in.
