Chapter 114: The Little Match Girl (2)

With the detailed guidance of the witch Alina, there was no need to waste extra time to explore the way, and even directly bypassed the dangerous area, and after five days of arduous trekking like a rapid march, the group finally left the territory of the two belligerents and entered the territory of the kingdom of Ned, which, according to the witch, was a kingdom with considerable military and economic strength.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, both explicitly and covertly, when they saw a village with indigenous human activity, and spending the night in the wild was never a memorable experience.

I miss the soft beds and the hot and delicious food.

Not only the newcomers, but even the chosen ones had similar thoughts in their hearts.

Naturally, the village with a population of only a few hundred could not get enough supplies for them, so they set off again after half a day's rest. Two days later, they arrived in a city of no small size.

Before entering the city, everyone changed into the clothes and shoes of the current world, all of them were scavenged from the abandoned villages along the way, and the suits and casual clothes and women's skirts they wore were really eye-catching in the fairy tale world set in the medieval background, although most of this group of people looked like fine skin and tender flesh, not at all like farmers who had worked hard in the wind and rain for many years.

Several women, such as Squirefish Fish, Li Liuhua and Mu Qiutang, are also dressed as men, but their handsome faces and towering clothes can tell at a glance that they are women as long as they are not blind.

Sophie is dressed in a simple and clean outfit, with a long sword hanging from her waist, and on her handsome cheeks, a pair of eyes exude a confident and soft color, giving people an elegant and very luxurious temperament, and a black cat that looks like a precious breed is obediently lying on his shoulder and napping.

The guards stationed at the gate of the city to collect the city tax saw more than 100 people approaching from a distance, and couldn't help but be nervous, and hurriedly shouted to their colleagues to be on alert, the neighboring country next door was fighting, and it would be strange if the soldiers did not have a little vigilance. After more than ten minutes, when it became clear that the person who came was unarmed, the guard soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, and when their eyes swept to Sophie and the dozen or so people around them, they became nervous again.

The appearance and temperament of this group of people are not like ordinary people.

In particular, Sophie, who is surrounded by the stars and the moon, makes several experienced older guards think that the prince of this world has a precedent for traveling around alone.

The captain of the guard squad straightened his collar, hurriedly greeted him, and asked solemnly, "Are you and your companions going into the city?" ”

He couldn't figure out the true identity of Sophie and his party, although the more than 100 people behind him were haggard and wearing civilian clothes, but their skin was white and strong, and at a glance, they were used to being pampered on weekdays, and anyone who was a little careful could find the difference between this group of people and real civilians, could it be the nobles who fled from the Boke Kingdom?

The captain of the guard couldn't help but mutter.

"Yes, my followers and I have traveled to your country with little supplies, and is there anything wrong with us going into the city to rest for a few days to replenish supplies?" Sophie looked directly at the middle-aged man in front of her and asked softly.

Originally, it was planned to let Wang Dao and a few people take the newcomers to disguise themselves as caravans, but after learning a little about this world from the mouth of the witch Alina, they quickly rejected this plan, due to the huge transportation costs and road safety problems caused by the rugged roads, the land trade exchanges of the inland countries of the world are not too developed, and most of the small merchants who wander abroad like to deceive the civilians, and their reputation in the countryside is not very good for a long time.

So the big caravan of more than 100 people was taken for granted, and after thinking about it, they simply pretended to be Sophie's attendants.

The captain of the guard opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer, he didn't want to offend the young man with an extraordinary background in front of him, and he was afraid of being punished by his boss afterwards, just as he was swaying from side to side, a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes walked briskly with his subordinates, first glanced at Sophie and the people around him without a trace, and then said to the captain of the guard: "Dark, since there is no problem, let it go." ”

This is the defense officer who manages the city guard system, and when he noticed that a large number of people were approaching the city, some guards hurried to the city to report to the chief.

Unlike the illiterate group of people under his command, the defense officer was born in the nobility, was well-educated, and traveled abroad when he was young, and knew that the appearance of the people in the nearby countries was roughly divided into two types, one was the blonde hair and blue eyes of his own country, and the other was the red-haired and gray-eyed king of the Polk Kingdom next door, which was said to have been bred by the nobles who fled from the Western Continent a long time ago.

Most of Sophie's entourage have black hair and black eyes, and the hair colors such as gold, red, and brown among the women can be seen at a glance that they are dyed with some kind of pigment, and the facial features are obviously different from the races of the surrounding countries.

Therefore, the defense officer immediately crossed out the possibility of fleeing nobles from the Boke Kingdom.

It's just that this prince of a foreign country has too many attendants when he travels, and the attendants are not like the attendants, and the defense officer suppresses this doubt in his heart, and it is impossible not to let them into the city, if this matter reaches the ears of His Majesty the King, it will be a big trouble, and the war in the kingdom next door is not caused by a prince who secretly ran out to play.

The defense officer came to Sophie and said sincerely: "Sorry for the delay, you can enter the city at any time, but there is only one inn in this city, and I am afraid that it will not be able to accommodate your attendants." ”

Sophie gave a salute that a defense officer had never seen before, and replied calmly with a smile: "Thanks for reminding me, my followers and I have long been accustomed to any difficult environment during our long journey, and it is no problem to squeeze four or five people into a room." ”

The defense officer couldn't help but nod secretly, and had a better impression of the alien prince in front of him.

"Then let me lead the way."

More than ten kilometers away, by a canyon stream, dozens of people are busy setting up camp.

In an internally modified armored car, the nine senior candidates of the 87th Regiment sat around and watched with interest a projection screen in the middle, on which Sophie led two squads to negotiate with the defense officer, the camera was quite clear, but the sound was slightly distorted, perhaps too far away.

Originally, the reconnaissance plane was sent out to find out the information of the city, but I didn't expect to make an unexpected discovery.

"We have armored vehicles to travel, and the regiment commander leads people to explore the road in front and avoid the area of battle to find here, how can these two second-generation teams with more than 100 newcomers walk faster than us?" Xing Guodong frowned and noticed the strangeness in it.

"There should be locals to help lead the way, not ordinary locals, ordinary civilians in the Middle Ages did not have such detailed geographical knowledge, with the appearance and acting skills of this beautiful little brother, it is not difficult to get the favor of the locals, and if you look good, you can do whatever you want."

It's like asking for directions, one is a beautiful and polite girl, and the other is a middle-aged woman with an ordinary appearance, the former is definitely much more popular than the latter.

A girl with a red ribbon tied with a double ponytail, a delicate and lovely face, a small and delicate girl, licked the treasure bead in her small mouth, inadvertently revealed two little tiger teeth, her eyes were big and moist and shiny, she smiled and said with a smile like a girl next door: "But the little brother is really in the play, just like the real prince, it is my favorite type." ”

"At first glance, you are a scumbag with a heart of flowers, I didn't expect Si Junqi that you actually like this type?" Qin Shou, who had met Sophie from afar, pouted, and his ordinary face showed envy again: "I didn't find out that evening, the women of this second-generation group are all beautiful, and the types are much more complete than ours, but why do they all revolve around him, what a group of superficial women!" ”

Si Junqi bit the treasure bead and couldn't help but laugh: "I don't know if this beautiful little brother is a scumbag or not, but a person who has raised more than a dozen lovers in his hometown (earth) scolds others for his heart, and the thickness of your skin really opens my eyes again." ”

"I don't agree with Qin Shou's words either, which of the women in our group is worse? The head of the group, Si Junqi, Su Ya, and Hao Rou are all rare beauties. A handsome tall young man frowned, retorted in a dissatisfied tone, and subconsciously glanced at the woman at the top after speaking, with a gentle look between his eyebrows.

Xing Guodong sighed in his heart, fortunately, Wang Yu, the guy who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, died, otherwise the scene would be even more chaotic.

Si Junqi is the same group of selected people who entered Alcatraz Island and survived so far, in terms of strength, he is a little better than the head of the group, and more than in the situation of life and death to turn the tide for the group, most of the people here have been saved by girls, and their strength and qualifications are the most top-notch ones in the group, so there are not many scruples in words and deeds, only the head of the group can press her.

Wei Hui was rescued by the head of the regiment when he was a newcomer, and he secretly admired the head of the regiment for a long time, and he was a die-hard supporter of the head of the regiment.

Qin Shou was only the one who entered later, and he was far behind in friendship, let alone a diehard loyalist of the regiment commander, and his comprehensive strength was at the bottom of the seven silver levels of the eighty-seventh regiment.

It's clear who is close and who is far away.

It's definitely not okay to make it clear which one to help, but it's better to let the head of the regiment do this kind of thing in person, it's hard enough to maintain the atmosphere of the team, Xing Guodong is trying to interrupt.

"It's really good, but isn't it too cumbersome for him to bring so many newcomers around?" The handsome man sitting opposite Xing Guodong spoke out in agreement, and he had doubts, it was Ye Zhun who had a brief exchange with Sophie last time, and the other party was obviously a smart person with foresight and knowledge of advance and retreat, it was impossible not to know the disadvantages of taking so many newcomers together.

is really into the play, the acting is good, the above adjectives do not mean mockery, but the heartfelt praise of Si Junqi and Ye Zhun.

Alcatraz Island has many new chosen ones who died too contemptuously for the natives of the mission world, the so-called natives are not NPCs without wisdom in the game, you can play with them, once the wise man or force gets into trouble, maybe even the first-class team will lose a lot, so integrating into the current mission world can reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Especially for mission worlds that require a long period of time, if you can smoothly integrate into them, you will gain a lot of things, both good and bad.

Xing Guodong secretly sighed, Ye Zhun is stable and generous, his qualifications and strength are not bad, and his popularity in the group is quite good, so it should be okay to have him come forward as a lubricant.

Sure enough, Si Junqi just glared at Ye Zhun with a pair of eyes wide, bit the treasure bead in his mouth, and chewed it with a click, but he didn't choke again.

"It's for the merit points of that extra reward, tens of thousands of merit points even our senior electees have to be excited, in fact, as long as we learn from us, find a secluded place to settle the newcomers, and leave a senior chosen person to guard it." The handsome young man next to Ye Zhun said lazily.

According to Alcatraz's custom rules, each mission will reward 500 merit points for one more newcomer who survives and returns, and 80 newcomers will be rewarded with 40,000 merit points.

"Murong, your thoughts are normal, because you have more information than these new candidates, and it is right to know what to do, he should be smart but he was mistaken by being smart."

The eyes of everyone in the armored car shifted to the cold and glamorous woman at the top, the beautiful woman is Pei Yibai, the commander of the 87th Regiment, she wears a high ponytail, wears a khaki military uniform, her feet are covered with long military boots, and a dark gray windbreaker is draped, she looks heroic and cool, she smiled calmly under everyone's attention: "Smart people think a lot, this is an advantage and a disadvantage, they will put the clues they hear and see into their own thinking field, to think deeply about the meaning." ”

"The notion that Alcatraz never does meaningless things is deeply ingrained in the minds of many of the chosen ones, and it is, in fact."

"This time, letting so many newcomers enter the world of difficult missions to send them to their deaths is not in line with Alcatraz's usual style, he will think about whether it will be because of the use of newcomers in the process of the main quest, once he has a similar idea, it will affect the next decision, but we (the veteran candidates) know that these newcomers are actually one of the activity benefits that Alcatraz gives to all teams."

There is no penalty for failure in the main quest of this Christmas event, and the weak second-generation team only needs to take the newcomer to hide well, and the luck is not bad to get through this event smoothly, even if the evaluation is too low, there are still tens of thousands of merit point income, which is one of the options that Alcatraz gives to the new creation team.

"Think about how stupid we were in the first place." Contrary to the name, Hao Rou is an expressionless ice beauty, even if she says witty words, there is no trace of emotional waves, she said thoughtfully: "If he is really a smart person with the courage to pursue and courage, he should make a decision next, otherwise it will not please both ends, I am curious about his choice." ”

Whether it's to survive the mission, or risk your life to participate in the main quest.

There has been a similar controversy even among the senior group of candidates, and the jury has not yet been reached.
