"By the way, those two things in your hand can't be taken from that Death Knight, right?" As soon as the giant saw that he had finished the introduction, he quickly cut to the chase. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yi Xuan nodded and said, "Well, yes, what's wrong?" ”
"Oh, nothing." Lorcan pretended to be indifferent and said, suddenly as if he remembered something, and suddenly slapped his head, "Oops, I almost forgot, we came here to do the task, you didn't take this task and couldn't do it, but I can share it with you, how about it, do you want to do it together."
Yi Xuanxin said of course it's okay, NP will also share tasks, where can this good thing be found. Hurriedly nodded: "Of course you can, after all, I am also a member of the mercenary team now, and I must contribute." ”
Luo Ken had been waiting for him for a long time, and when he heard Yi Xuan say this, a smile immediately appeared on his face. At the same time, Yi Xuan received a prompt.
System Prompt: Lorcan shares the mission, 'Tristram's Rescue,' whether or not to accept it.
System Prompt: Lorcan shares the quest, 'The Destruction of Tristram,' and whether to accept it.
How are two missions? Yi Xuan looked at it a little strangely, but he just missed the experience of dividing the camp and told Yi Xuan, don't think too much, anyway, it is the task shared by these people in front of him, so he said that he didn't care, and immediately clicked to accept.
After taking the task, Yi Xuan was suddenly stunned, wait a minute, Tristram, isn't this the name of a place in Diablo?
Yi Xuan looked at the words on the table and was stunned, in the previous battle, because he heard the militia captain shouting before charging, 'For Lordaeron,'. Immediately after that, when he was dividing the camp, he met Baron Rivendell again, so Yi Xuan always believed that this game world must be set in World of Warcraft.
Although there are still some discrepancies in some details, which makes people feel a little strange, he reluctantly accepts this fact, but at this time, seeing the name of the village on this mission description, Yi Xuan, who has been immersed in online games for so many years, immediately became calm.
If it were other villages, Yi Xuan might be a little vague, but Tristram, the name he was absolutely sure, was a city in the Diablo world.
The reason why he is so sure is because Yi Xuan has been playing Dark for a long time, and in his opinion, if he wants to find the most representative and famous city from the Diablo game, then it must be Tristram.
The story of the Dark Generation, the whole background takes place in the city and the underground labyrinth below the city, and in Diablo 2, Tristram became the mission map of the mission to rescue Kane.
In Diablo-, another Tristram appeared, and it can be said that this Tristram runs through almost the entire Diablo plot and is an indispensable part of it.
Thinking of this, Yi Xuan subconsciously looked up at the burning village in front of him, if this is Tristram, it seems a little rudimentary according to the dark style, but if a famous city in the dark becomes a small part of the map, Yi Xuan suddenly realized that his previous conjecture about this game may be a little simple.
Yi Xuan pecked his teeth and sighed, not only because the current situation gave him a toothache, but also because he suddenly felt uncertain about the game in front of him.
Although his heart was already turbulent, Yi Xuan's face was silent, and he pretended to be calm and introduced the two tasks first.
Mission L - Tristram's Rescue: Tristram is under attack by the Knights of Dusk in the dark camp, and due to the shortage of troops on the front line, the Knights of Dawn are unable to send troops to rescue, so they ask the Falcon Mercenary Regiment to go to the rescue and must hold out for more than three days.
Reward: 6 gold and 3 credits.

Mission 2 - The Destruction of Tristram: The humans of Tristram dared to refuse to join the dark camp and must punish them, due to the shortage of troops on the front line, they could only send the death knight Wren who was patrolling nearby to attack, in order to ensure the successful completion of the mission, the Falcon Mercenary Group was asked to assist Wren in destroying Tristrium within ten days.
Reward: 10 gold.
Posted by: Knights of Dusk.
Originally, Yi Xuan was trying to hide his inner emotions by checking the details of the task, but after reading the mission introduction, his heart became even more chaotic.
"Wait a minute, these two tasks ......" Yi Xuan said hesitantly, thinking in his heart why these two tasks are diametrically opposed, could it be that thinking of this, he didn't ask the second half of his sentence, but looked up and glanced at the seemingly reckless and impulsive Luo Ken, and said in his heart that he didn't expect this person to be loyal and good, and actually do such a two-faced thing when he took the task.
Sure enough, Luo Ken saw Yi Xuan's expression, and a smug smile appeared on his face: "Don't make a fuss, if you don't learn to be flexible in this world, there is no benefit." Then he winked at Yi Xuan and said narrowly: "Haha, how about it, Lao Tzu is very smart." ”
Yi Xuan didn't expect that the NPs in this place could be so flexible, so he smiled helplessly, nodded and said, "It's really smart." However, he was thinking in his heart that this task was still a bit opportunistic, and Yi Xuan took a closer look at the task, after all, he was also good at calculating the content of the game
And there are also problems with the release of this mission, the time limit is different, one requires three days, one requires ten days of destruction, if you want to complete both tasks, then just help Tristram hold on for three days and then destroy the city. So these guys should have come with the idea of seeing the wind and steering the rudder.
But Yi Xuan immediately found out that something was wrong, generally speaking, it was impossible for the system to release two missions that were so easy to deceive, and why did the Knights of Dawn only ask the Falcon Mercenary Regiment to guard for three days? Is it just to let these mercenaries earn experience and gold for nothing?
This was certainly not without reason, based on Yi Xuan's experience in the game for such a long time, he felt that it was either because they knew that the Knights of Dusk would retreat in three days, but judging from the time that another mission required ten days of attack, this was obviously impossible.
Then it is obvious that the second reason is that the Knights of Dawn only need these mercenaries to help guard for three days, because within three days, the Knights of Dawn will send people to support, and they will naturally not need these mercenaries to continue to serve at that time.
It's wordy to describe, in fact, it was only a matter of a few seconds for Yi Xuan to figure out these at that time, thinking of this, Yi Xuan immediately raised his head and asked, "What if the people from the Knights of Dawn come in three days?" Judging by their requests, their reinforcements should arrive within three days. ”
Luo Ken listened to Yi Xuan's question, and an appreciative smile immediately appeared on his face, which means, you are quite smart. Then he replied: "What else can I do, then give up the mission on one side, anyway, the Knights of Dusk their main Death Knights have all hung up, it is impossible to spend only ten gold coins to let us attack Tristram alone, since they can't complete it, I think they can understand that we broke the contract halfway." ”
For this kind of person who doesn't take the agreement to heart, Yi Xuan knows that what he values should be interests, thinking of this, Yi Xuan's heart sank, the death knight was killed by himself, if they want to hand over the task in the end, won't they become the enemy's side, so that their plan to mix up the mission will fail, and it will be difficult to ensure that these mercenaries who only recognize interests will not embarrass themselves, what is better to talk about it first, thinking of this, Yi Xuan immediately asked, "But that death knight was killed by me, Won't I cause you trouble if I join you? ”
Lorcan laughed when he heard this, "Don't be afraid, you haven't joined the camp when you kill him, and it won't be recorded by the system." Speaking of being recorded by the system, Lorcan looked as natural as saying that he had insomnia in his sleep last night, it seems that these NPs are accustomed to the rules of their own world, and they don't think it's anything strange, this kind of realistic version of the game feels a little weird again.
"Okay, let's go to the city first," Luo Ken said to Yi Xuan, walked over and grabbed Yi Xuan's shoulder, looked very affectionate, and whispered: "But when I enter the city, I may need a little help from you." ”
Yi Xuan glanced at him a little strangely, but Luo Ken didn't seem to be like an explanation, he only pulled Yi Xuan to the gate, and the group followed Luo Ken to the gate of Tristram, Yi Xuan just now because of the fierce battle all the way, but he didn't have time to observe carefully, at this time, standing in front of the door, he saw the whole picture of Tristram, this place is said to be a town, in fact, it is just a larger village, scattered buildings are distributed among them, and a circle of walls is wrapped around the periphery of the building, if you look at these walls, It's quite a bit like a little bit, the inside and outside of the two city logs, the middle looks like I don't know what to reinforce, forming a not too wide platform, when fighting, people can stand on it to attack, usually the militia can stand on it and stand guard, the situation outside the town can be seen at a glance.
This kind of defense is not the same as that of ordinary villages, but it's no wonder, after all, it's a game world setting, this is not a modern metropolis, not to mention the forest, even outside the town can be seen everywhere, and the people in the city will not die sooner if there is no defense.
A few people came to the gate, and there were a few militiamen standing on the wall, walking around in a stylized manner, it seemed that they were also low-level guards, and like those mercenary shooters, they were a group of public-faced NPs who didn't even have names
At this moment, their expressions were serious and nervous, as if they were facing a great enemy, but they did not have any reaction to the people and things that were beyond their vigilance, and it seemed that their spirits were not as good as those outside the city before, and they didn't seem to notice the battle not far in front of them and the conversation between a few people just now, until they walked more than ten meters below the city, then they suddenly revealed a trace of alertness, and suddenly shouted, "Hey, who are you, don't get close, otherwise we will release arrows"
Yi Xuan had a headache when he saw their appearance, and he came here to guard like this, but thinking about the games he had played before, the militia at the entrance of the village seemed to react to the monsters in front of him, and he was relieved. It was a militiaman with a bow and arrow on the wall who shouted it, and although he said it harshly, the trembling hands that raised the bow betrayed their fear.
"Don't let go of the arrows, we are mercenaries of the Falcon Mercenary Regiment, and we have taken the task to help." The thief was obviously good at this kind of negotiation, and immediately took a step forward and said with a grin.
Hearing him say this, the guard seemed to relax a little, but the expression on his face did not show any friendliness, and he shouted loudly: "You just defend outside the city, who knows if you mercenaries have collected black money." "The militia is really upright, and even the latter whining sentence is shouted in the same decibels, obviously a guy who doesn't understand the world.
Yi Xuan scratched his head when he heard his words, it seems that these militias don't trust mercenaries, and he understands in his heart that what this neutral camp says is that both sides can eat well, but on the other hand, it seems that they are also people who are not willing to be trusted by both sides, and after contacting these mercenaries just now, I found that these people have no morality at all, and they take advantage of both sides, it is estimated that after a long time, their reputation has been ruined by themselves, and they don't know whether their hasty choice between them is right or wrong?
Hearing that they were not allowed to enter the city, the seven or eight public-faced NPCs in the back were obviously a little anxious, and immediately shouted in the back, but Loken and the thieves didn't care, and it seemed that they had already been used to this kind of treatment.
Nalocan stepped forward and shouted, "Hello, I'm their captain. ”
This self-introduction and this hello seemed to add a lot of points to him, and the guard's gaze at Lorcan didn't seem to be as stern as when he looked at the thief just now, but he didn't speak, but looked at his next move with a suspicious expression.
"Dude, it's not right for you to do this, we came all the way to help, even if you don't come out to welcome, you can't turn us away." This Luo Ken seemed to be rough, but he didn't expect that when he spoke and did things, he was rough and fine, Yi Xuan watched him and the guards with great interest, thinking that he had misseen him before, but he didn't expect this kid to also have his strengths.
"Well, we can't be sure if you're friend or foe." The guard's tone sounded softer than before, but it was still unkind when he spoke.
"How can we be enemies, you know? We just encountered the enemy outside the city, but together with your captain, we fought side by side, although they could not be sacrificed, but we also managed to kill the death knights, and now we help you to destroy the death knights outside the city, it can be said that we have done you a great favor, how can you still say that we don't know whether we are friends or foes? The words of Lorcan's words were sonorous, as if the person who had just fought the Death Knight was himself.
When the guard heard his words, a surprised expression immediately appeared on his face, and then he couldn't hide his excitement and asked loudly, "You said you killed the Death Knight?" ”
"That's right," Lorcan's tone was more legitimate, more than ever.
"You...... How do you prove it? The guard looked so excited that he couldn't help leaning forward
Luo Ken smiled and leaned over and whispered to Yi Xuan, "The time has come when I need you, let's prove it to him." ”
Since Yi Xuan has entered the mercenary team, it is naturally incumbent on him, although he is a knight who he killed, and now he is being given credit by the whole team of mercenaries, but Yi Xuan is just a player after all, which is light and which is heavy, and the most important thing now is to complete the task as soon as possible, so he hurriedly raised the rune sword in his hand and raised it against the guards on the wall.
"Oh my God, is this the Death Knight's rune sword?"
"Yes, exactly." Yi Xuan replied while taking a few steps forward, letting them see more clearly, in fact, this is not necessary, although these guards are a little wooden, but because of the system's setting for these task items, it has almost reached the point where they can verify the authenticity without the help of any tools, so the heads of several other guards immediately appeared on the city wall and cheered.
"Oh my God, it really is"
"The Death Knight was really dropped, that's great"
The whole city burst into cheers, and in this cheer, the gate in front of them was finally slowly opened.
At the same time, Yi Xuan's watch sounded again.
System Tip: Kill the Death Knight and your reputation will increase by 60 points in Tristram, and your reputation in Tristram will be increased to friendly.
System Prompt: Help the Falcon Mercenary Group gain Tristram's trust, 'Tristram's rescue, progress increased, current mission participation 2
