Gu Cheng followed Conal to Dani's restaurant, it was lunch time, and there were already many people sitting in the restaurant. But when she saw Kornal, Dani personally came out to greet them and chose the best place to place them. Without Kornal's words, Dani let the kitchen prepare the best food that could be made.

Since Gu Cheng's "story" had not yet been told, Konar simply called Dani to sit together and listen to Gu Cheng tell (edit) his deeds.

Just as Kornar was listening, a tall group of people dressed as militiamen came to the restaurant.

Gu Cheng looked at the group of people, and Konar whispered to him: "This group of people is from the second team, and the captain is a pure-blooded barbarian. These guys, like me, are of semi-barbarian descent. In peacetime, he was responsible for the defense of the southern side. ”

Gu Cheng nodded. I wanted to ask about the second militia team, but I saw the barbarians led by the militia walking straight towards Kornar.

"Konar." The barbarian's face was a little ugly, as if he wanted to say something, but it was difficult to speak, and after some entanglement, he said slowly: "When our second team went out on a mission, we heard bad news...... Trissym seems to be annoyed! This may have something to do with the scum in hell, do you team know about it? ”

Kornal took a big sip of beer, slapped the sturdy solid wood table in front of him, and snorted coldly, "It's hell again!" Isn't it enough to create a bunch of undead trouble for us! And what do they want to do? Who the dares to come to Trisham this time to make trouble, Lao Tzu's axe can't spare him, and he will definitely be split in half! ”

The barbarian said with a calm face: "I'm afraid this trouble can't be solved with an axe!" ”

"What's going on?" Kornar asked, frowning.

The barbarian said with a solemn face: "The Hell Legion has set up a outpost around the Grand Canyon in the South Hill of Tristelm, and we have made a preliminary investigation, and there are at least a thousand demons...... Not only that, but they erected huge magic pillars, as if performing some kind of ritual...... We reported this to the captain, who concluded that it was likely that the gates of hell would be opened again. Although this information has been reported to the above, you know the efficiency of the above. Most likely, it will be up to us for a short time. ”

"Does Captain Rumford know about this?" Konar asked.

The barbarian nodded: "I have already asked someone to inform him, and he was told to see you in the restaurant, so I came to talk to you." ”

"Your captain thinks when they're going to attack Tristium?" Konar spoke word by word, as if his teeth were about to clench. The last time Trissym was attacked and his own village was attacked, he was not able to be on the scene in the first place, and this time, he will pick up the giant axe in his hand and stand on the front line!

The barbarian said in a deep voice: "I guess...... Soon. ”

Hearing the word "soon", the originally noisy restaurant suddenly quieted down, and the atmosphere became cold for a while, and everyone's hearts were full of uneasiness, fear, and worry.

At this time, Gu Cheng suddenly spoke: "Even if it is a fierce Hell Legion, since the last time the Heaven and Human Warriors Alliance was hit hard, this time it must not be rash to directly press the army, no matter how it will send the vanguard to take a look...... If it is the vanguard, we are not unable to resist. As long as you can hold out until the coalition arrives, gather the strength of the corps, and beat the Hell Legion back again. It's just that...... To judge the difference in strength between the two sides and the tactical arrangements of the other side, you need to know more information, what exactly did you find in the south? ”

The barbarian looked at Gu Cheng suspiciously, and asked Kornal, "Who is this person?" ”

"His name is Jack, and he's also a Nephilim, who lives in Tristum for the time being, and he's solved a lot of trouble for us." After Konar finished speaking, he introduced to Gu Cheng again: "This is Horns, the deputy captain of the second militia team. ”

Horns frowned and said with a displeased expression, "Nephilim? And the fat man with a smile on his face and a fat man who is not a good person at first glance is a person all the way? ”

Gu Cheng brought out the same rhetoric that persuaded Dani at the beginning: "Although it is said that they are both Nephiten, it is just like you and the mayor of the town are both Tristalems, but the former is guarding the town, and the latter is fleeing, there is still a difference between people." ”

Horns snorted coldly: "How do I know that you and him are not all the way?" ”

"Then how do I know that you and Mayor Mare's not all the way?" Gu Cheng was-for-tat.

"You!" Horns glared.

Kornal stood up and said earnestly to Horns, "I believe Jack, without him, I wouldn't have been able to sit here and talk to you, he's different from the other Nephilim. ”

When Dani heard this, her face changed drastically, and she asked urgently, "Kornal, what's going on?" ”

Konar simply told Gu Cheng about saving him and resisting the attack of two undead creatures.

Dani was frightened when she heard this, and hurriedly said to Gu Cheng: "Thank you for saving Kornal, if he has any strengths and weaknesses, I don't know what to do!" I apologize to you for my previous offense, as you said, you are different from those Nephilim! ”

The suspicion and wariness on Horns' face were also much less suspicious: "Okay, I'll just trust Kornal." South...... At first, a fisherman from Tristrom was fishing in the Domile River to the south, and found the corpses of many wild beasts in the woods by the river, and the wounds were definitely not caused by humans or wild beasts, so he reported the matter to the militia, and I led them deep into the woods, where I met a team of fallen demons, and we lost a comrade in order to bring the news back as soon as possible. ”

Gu Cheng said: "Knowing their approximate location, it will be easy to do." We can organize a strong scout team to investigate, and when we find out what the hell demons are doing and what they are trying to do, we can try to defeat them. ”

"I'll go!" Konar immediately slapped the table in response to Gu Cheng's proposal.

"I'll go!"

"I'll go too!"

"Count me in!"

In the cafeteria, militiamen and townspeople stood up.

At the same time as these people responded, a system prompt with blue font appeared in front of Gu Cheng's eyes, showing that he had triggered the side quest.

[Trigger the side quest "Investigate the Demon Outpost of Hell" to form a reconnaissance team and investigate the Demon Outpost in the forest at the junction of the Grand Canyon and the Domile River in the south of Trisham.] Completing quests rewards XP x3000 and Silver Random Treasure Chest x1. 】

3000 XP plus a Silver Random Chest?

Gu Cheng not only did not have a trace of excitement when he saw the reward, but there were bursts of doubt in his heart. If this kind of high side reward is a "specialty" of the quest world, that's fine, but judging by the difficulty of the Resident Evil open world and the infinite world, it's a boss-level quest!

Dani couldn't help but tug at Kornal's clothes and said worriedly, "Demon camp...... That, that's too dangerous! Conal ...... You can't go! ”

Kornar put his hands on Dani's shoulders and said seriously, "Dani, I want to protect you, protect Tristum, and protect this place where we will settle down in the future!" If you wait for the demons to gather, it's too late! I've seen their horrors, and my hometown was destroyed by demons! Jack is right, we must grasp the demons' movements this time before we can defeat them with the coalition forces in the future! ”

Dani bit her lip and was silent, but under the affectionate gaze of Konar, she nodded silently: "You...... Be careful, I'll wait for you to come back. ”

Kornar slapped the table, raised his fist and said loudly: "It's a man, go with Lao Tzu to meet those scum demons!" Now is the perfect time to fight, take up your own weapons and defend our homeland! ”

"Defend the homeland!"

"Defend the homeland!"

"Defend the homeland!"

At this time, Ramford led a group of people into the restaurant. In addition to the militia and a tall and burly barbarian, Gu Cheng also saw a panther and a Chosen One he had never seen before.

Gu Cheng originally thought that the task might be difficult, and he was also thinking about where to drag the two Chosen Ones into the water, it was best to find the black panther, but he didn't expect the other party to send it to the door by himself.

Ramford apparently learned of the demons, and the captain of the second team rushed to the dining room to meet with Horns and Conar to discuss how to defend against the demons of hell that were more terrifying than the undead creatures.

While Ramford was discussing with Conor and the others, Gu Cheng walked up to the panther and greeted him with a smile: "Brother Panther." ”

The black panther glanced at Gu Cheng and didn't say anything.

Although Gu Cheng didn't have much contact with the black panther, he also knew a little about this person's character, so he didn't care, and continued: "I didn't expect that you and I both saw through the little tricks of the fat tiger, and being with this kind of person is undoubtedly seeking skin with the tiger. It's better to see through him earlier than to be stabbed in the back by him. Then again, did you and him meet in this infinite world, or did you know each other before? ”

The panther shook his head and didn't speak.

Gu Cheng continued: "I traded with him once before in the public space, and I had a relationship with him. I thought about making more friends, and I met in the infinite world and could also work together, but I didn't expect that as soon as I formed a team, the team would disperse. Alas. It's a shame. ”

The panther didn't speak.

Gu Cheng: ...... Brother, give me a reaction, if you pretend to be deep like this, I won't be able to take it anymore......

The black panther didn't speak, but the young man next to him, who was of medium size, wearing an ancient robe, with a long sword pinned to his waist, and was about the same age as Gu Cheng, laughed out loud and said, "Brother, forget it, Black Panther is the kind of person who you say a hundred words, and it is difficult for him to jump out of a word." However, I said earlier that there was a problem with Fat Tiger, but unfortunately Snow Eagle didn't listen to persuasion. ”

"You know them?" Gu Cheng asked.

The young man nodded: "I can't talk about acquaintance, I have cooperated with Fat Tiger and Snow Eagle in the Infinite World once before, but I didn't expect the Infinite World to meet again this time." My name is Zhao Shanhe, what do you call my brother? ”

"Zhao Shanhe? Could it be that you are Brother Pheasant? Gu Cheng smiled.

Zhao Shanhe: ...... Why everyone has to play this meme.

"Just call me Lao Gao." After a pause, Gu Cheng asked again, "Why did you come here?" Did you also receive a side quest? ”

In order to gain the trust of Zhao Shanhe and the black panther, Gu Cheng said straight to the point: "The second militia team of the plot character found traces of the Hell Demon in the forest in front of the Grand Canyon, and when I learned the news, I triggered a side quest to explore the demon outpost. What about you? ”

Zhao Shanhe shook his head: "Black Panther and I happened to encounter the same task of clearing the tomb of the dead, and when I went back to report to Ramford after completing the mission, I happened to run into the second team of militiamen reporting to Rumford, thinking that maybe we could trigger the side quest, so I came over to take a look." ”

Gu Cheng nodded: "Then we may be able to trigger the same side quest, if so, we can form a team and take care of each other." ”

Zhao Shanhe looked at the black panther, and the other party just nodded, and said, "It's okay." ”

After consulting Gu Cheng and Zhao Shanhe, Ramford and the barbarian Kebi, the captain of the second team, quickly reached an agreement, and sent the elite of the militia, accompanied by Ramford and Conal, to the Grand Canyon Forest to investigate.

Zhao Shanhe and Black Panther also received the same side quest as Gu Cheng, although the silver-level random treasure chest x1 has not changed, but according to the order of the two of them, it has become 2000 experience points and 1000 experience points.

Obviously, side quests like this will have decreasing rewards in order as more and more people pick them up.

After determining the personnel of the investigation team, they went back to prepare, and then met at the south gate of Tristelm, and the group set off in the direction of the Grand Canyon.

After walking for three or four hours, climbing over the hills and over the hills, killing many undead creatures on the way, the group finally came to the forest in front of the Grand Canyon.

In Gu Cheng's opinion, it is not difficult to find the outpost of the Hell Demon, and usually the camping place should be a place that is easy to defend against a water source or a hill, and will not affect daily life.

Demons also have to live.

In Diablo 3's setting, demon camps are most common in some cliffs, mountains and hilly areas. In the camp, the demons will also build temporary shelters, light fires, and study food. As long as the camp is going to be lit on fire, it is not difficult to find, especially at night.

Gu Cheng made suggestions to Rumford based on his game experience, and after Rumford and Kirby combined, they felt that what Gu Cheng said was very reasonable, so they led the team to walk along the Domile River towards the end of the canyon, and sure enough, a little smoke rose from the forest on the other side of the river in the distance.

Judging from the distance of the fire and the amount of cooking smoke, the scale of this camp is not large, and it should be a place like an outpost.

So Gu Cheng and Ramford discussed for a while, and decided that he would sneak in and investigate first. And Zhao Shanhe said that his ability is also suitable for moving forward, and he can dive in with Gu Cheng.

Someone helps, Gu Cheng is naturally happy.

Gu Cheng took out the grappling hook gun and shot the grappling hook at a big tree on the other side of the river, and flew over the spacious river with a "whoosh". Only Ramford had seen this method, Horns and the others were shocked, and Kornal applauded Gu Cheng.

On the other side, Zhao Shanhe stood by the river, took a few deep breaths, and suddenly jumped up, but when others jumped to a third of the width of the river, they began to fall, and the hearts of the investigation team on the riverbank were hanging. But the next moment, I saw him step on his right foot with his left foot, and step on his left foot with his right foot, and several times in a row, he rose a height extremely unreasonably.

Zhao Shanhe fell to Gu Cheng's side, Gu Cheng looked at him and asked, "Wudang, Tiyunzong?" ”

"Brother Gao has good eyesight."

Gu Cheng complained in his heart, a skill like this that Newton can't control, it must be the martial arts cheats of the Great Heavenly Empire. After all, the physics of our Oriental people is not under the control of Western scientists, but by Zhang Sanfeng, sweeping monks, and Feng Qingyang.

Gu Cheng and Zhao Shanhe walked along the river for a distance, and found a servant of hell who had come to fetch water, he was not a demon of hell, but a human being, with iron chains on his feet and hands, like a captured captive.

In the world of Diablo, it's not surprising that the demons of Hell would take humans as captives, not only to make them coolies, but also to use them as reserve food when necessary. In the game, if you look closely, you can see that most of the Fallen Demon camps are full of humans tied to pillars and chained.

The servant of hell who fetched water was dressed in rag robes, and his bare skin was covered with whipped bruises. The original gray-white robe was already dirty and black, and the sour smell could be smelled from a long distance.

Gu Cheng and Zhao Shanhe walked around the woods, Gu Cheng picked up a stubby branch, quietly walked behind the servant of hell, put the branch against his vest, and said coldly: "Don't move!" We are a human warrior army, and we have come to investigate the camp of the demons of hell, and if you want to live, listen to us! ”

The servant of hell did not dare to look back, and nodded violently and continuously. When he heard that the other party was a member of the Human Warrior Corps, he couldn't wait to turn around and hug the other party and cry, how could he still have the heart of resistance.

Gu Cheng asked, "We are here to rescue the humans who have been enslaved by the demons of hell, how many humans like you are still in the camp?" ”

The man said with a crying voice: "We are originally from Nancun, and the village was attacked by the demons of hell, most of the people were killed, and more than 20 people were captured. But these days, there are only seven or eight people alive. ”

Gu Cheng asked, "How many demons are there?" ”

"I don't know the specifics. All I remember is that there was at least one Fallen Sorcerer and a lot of Fallen, at least twenty or more. They, they also keep a lot of thorn demons in captivity. The servant of hell said, as if he remembered something again, and hastened to say, "By the way, in their middle tent, I also saw one...... A red-skinned, tall demon with demonic wings on his back...... Beside him, followed by a huge eyeball, it was terrifying. ”

Eyeball?

Demon Eyes?

Gu Cheng still has some memories of the Demon Monster Illustrated Book in the Diablo series, and if memory serves, this Demon Eye is the demon in charge of reconnaissance among the Hell Demons. The detection distance is very long, and it also has a certain "anti-hidden" function.

With Demon Wings in charge, it's not so easy to "sneak in".

Gu Cheng nodded, and then asked strangely: "Since they asked you to come out to fetch water, why don't you take this opportunity to run away?" ”

The Servant of Hell shook his head in horror, "I can't go." We have demonic marks on our bodies, and if we don't kill the Fallen Wizards, we will be swallowed by the demonic marks and become Fallen Demons. I've seen with my own eyes a few villagers turn into fallen demons, their own kind of demons! ”

Gu Cheng pointed to the forest and said, "You find a place to hide yourself, let's go to the demon camp and take a look!" ”
