Chapter 1: The First Encounter at the Camp
Sunset Camp, a mercenary camp on the edge of the Holy Demon Continent's Warcraft, faces the embarrassing situation of being abandoned as the hunting beasts go deeper. But today, it is more prosperous than ever. Even the inns that had no business on weekdays and were about to move out were full, and even the inn stables were taken away as temporary resting places.
Such a great change came from the news from the front-line beast hunters, a huge beast tide in history, moving in this direction.
The reason for the occurrence of the beast tide is not clear so far, mainly because the human race has not given birth to super strong, and the monster is still a huge threat to the human race. But Warcraft is subject to certain rules and has never attacked the Terrans in a big way, except for the occasional beast tide.
Therefore, those who are really in power of the Terrans guess that the beast tide is the order of the top-level demonic beasts originating from the heart of the Warcraft, but this is only speculation.
But this time the beast tide is more special, reaching the million level.
As soon as this news came out, the world was boiling. The three empires, dominated by the state of Chu, immediately signed an agreement and sent a large number of elites to resist the tide of beasts. But in reality, it's just a test ground for the beast tide.
From the royal family to the mercenaries who are fighting for their lives in the World of Warcraft, they all gather in the mercenary camps.
The bulletin board in the mercenary hall of the sunset camp is packed with mercenaries. Of course, the crowd here is nothing more than a few scattered mercenaries. The people of the mercenary group will not be like this, they have already signed a bigger order with the major forces.
"I've heard that there are 3 princes from the Chu Kingdom, if you are lucky enough to grab their task, maybe... Hey, hey!"
"Well, with this good thing, will it be our turn? Or hurry up and grab a task that doesn't lose your life and can get enough pay. ”
Seeing that several receptionists in the mercenary hall were holding a large pile of parchment rolls, the mercenaries suddenly became noisy.
Several receptionists were holding sticks, banging on the bulletin board, looking at the scattered mercenaries impatiently. One of the characters, who seemed to be the team leader, picked up a purple task scroll and roared: "Show it clearly to Lao Tzu, purple parchment roll, the old rule, don't ask about the task, take 8 gold coins!
The task roll is usually made of a parchment roll, and the difficulty of the task varies depending on the color. There are five types of colors: white, blue, purple, red, and black, with white naturally being the easiest task but paying less. And the only thing that can be taken out and openly sold is the purple roll, which is a high-score and difficult task, and even if you don't form a team, you can find a way to complete the task. Red and black will not appear on the bulletin board, and have long been booked by the union. The tasks of these two colors cannot be completed at all without a team of ten people, not to mention, the black parchment roll is called the mortal roll!
As soon as it came up, it was a purple roll, and many scattered mercenaries were a little hesitant. The scattered mercenaries who can survive until now are not the kind of stunned young people who have no head and no brains. On top of that, they didn't have any extra gold to take the purple scroll at will.
16 gold coins before and after!
The front desk of the team leader saw that these scattered mercenaries were silent, and couldn't help but despise them, and they were about to put away the purple scrolls. At this moment, a bag of gold coins was thrown over. The front desk caught the money bag, counted it, and then glanced at the scattered mercenary who lost the money bag, and couldn't help but be even more disdainful: "Boy, is Mao Changqi?"
"Haha!"
Naturally, these scattered mercenaries also saw the people who lost their money bags, and laughed when they heard the ridicule at the front desk.
The one who threw the money bag was a young man in a cloak with a shield and broadsword in his hand, and with his age, he felt like an unborn stunned young man.
Every mercenary here has a habit that they never hide the scars on their bodies, but often tell others that this scar is glory, and then a story familiar to the mercenary world comes out.
There was no such scar on this young man's body, but it was unusually white.
The young man frowned, as if he wanted others not to despise him, but swung his broadsword, using the language and demeanor of the mercenaries he had learned these days, and said viciously: "Since you have paid 16 gold coins, you should fulfill your promise, Lord Reception! You can't regret it!"
"Yo Yo Yo, take a look..." The team leader came to the front desk to be interested, and while carefully looking at the young man, he walked around the young man, and then said: "The nameless ghost is not worthy of the purple roll!"
The young man withdrew his broadsword and shouted, "Tianyun!"
The team leader threw the purple scroll to Tianyun at the front desk and said, "Life and death are up to fate." ”
Tianyun took the purple scroll, looked at the front desk of the team leader who was about to leave, and said, "Stop!
A slight smile appeared at the front desk of the team leader: "Didn't I already say it, life and death depend on fate." ”
"You!"
Tianyun realized that he had been tricked, picked up his broadsword, and walked to the front desk of the team leader angrily, wanting to return 8 gold coins.
The front desk of the team leader looked at him mockingly, and with a sound of his hands, several heavily armed guards in the mercenary hall came over and looked at Tianyun viciously.
Seeing this situation, Tianyun realized that the situation was not right, so he changed his mouth and said: "Take the purple roll, according to the regulations of the mercenary hall, I can enjoy a free glass of fruit wine!"
"Take him there!" the team leader waved at the front desk and continued to take out a purple scroll.
Tianyun took a deep look at the front desk of the team leader, didn't care about the ridicule around him at all, and found a table at random, waiting for the fruit wine.
On the other side of the table was a girl who didn't look very old, but her appearance was really ugly. And she was staring at Tianyun's purple scroll with a smile. If it was a beauty, Tianyun would be nothing, and he would take the initiative to talk to him, but with such an ugly appearance, with his mood at the moment, he naturally felt bored for a while.
This ugly girl didn't care about Tianyun's naked disgusted expression at all, and took the initiative to say, "Hey, buddy, did you get cheated by that guy?
Before she could speak, Tianyun got up, trying to find a place. She grabbed Tianyun and said with a smile: "Dude, I'll just say one word." ”
Tianyun couldn't struggle, so he simply looked at her to see what the hell she was doing.
She saw that there was a play, so she said: "Don't look at my young age, but I have done a lot of purple scroll tasks, and I have also found a little way, this purple scroll of life and death usually has a common point about life and death, but... Huh"
Tianyun's dislike for her was even greater, but it would be good if she could know a little bit of information about Zijuan, so she said, "What do you want?"
"No, no, no, you misunderstood me, buddy, I don't want anything. She smiled even more, picked up the fruit wine that had just been sent to Tianyun, drank it, and said, "Range, the scope of the purple roll! Starting from this place, within three hundred miles, it is the range of the purple scroll, and then you only need to check the situation of the demonic beasts within the last three hundred miles. ”
Tianyun looked at the fruit wine in her hand, which originally belonged to her, but when she heard her words, she couldn't help but be grateful.
Seeing Tianyun like this, she took out her purple scroll and said with a smile: "Mine happens to be a purple scroll too, why don't we team up, I'll help you complete the purple scroll, and you help me complete the purple scroll by the way?"
Tianyun suddenly realized, and finally understood what she had in mind, but if she teamed up with someone, it would be very helpful to complete the task, but trust was a big problem, so she said: "I don't even know your name, how..."
She hooked Tianyun's shoulder, looking like an iron buddy, and said: "My name is Lin Fei'er, it doesn't matter if you don't trust it, you can cultivate it slowly, let's go check the situation of the demonic beasts within the last three hundred miles first, but buddy, I have been tight recently, why don't you help me bear the cost of inquiry, I promise, complete the task, and I will pay you back immediately!"
Tianyun looked her up and down, although she looked ugly, but the equipment on her body was a grade higher than his, how could she be poorer than him? But it didn't matter if she thought that it didn't cost much to inquire.
