Volume 10 New World Chapter 221 Encountering the Dead
In the crowd, a squad of about seven people stood out.
They were wearing the same black tights, four women and three men, and what Li Wei cared about was one of the women.
Looking at the familiar figure, many past scenes flashed in Li Wei's mind, and the girl surnamed Ge who was stubborn and liked to play with flying knives appeared in his mind, and the figure of the woman in front of him coincided.
"Xue Yan, this girl, looks like she has grown up!" Immediately, he smiled and got up and walked over.
Xue Yan was annoyed now.
A month ago, in the auction hall of the town to which he belonged, a level 5 magic crystal was stolen, which had a great impact on the reputation of the town, although Xue Yan did not understand the so-called 'market', and he also scoffed at it. But Zheng Yutong once said something to her, which made her understand the important surname of this matter.
In this era, the survival of all people is based on towns, and to develop towns, there must be enough resources, and it is impossible to collect these resources by a few people, or dozens of people.
Then, we can only rely on the power of the public, it can be said that since the birth of human society, the market is everywhere, and if you want to develop towns, you must form a market cycle with a good surname in the city, so as to form a prosperous scene, and cities and towns will also get the resources needed for development through various channels in this prosperous market environment.
Several of the surrounding level 3 and 4 big towns are doing this, even if those city lords don't understand this, but they can recruit the capable people and wise people of the old world to give advice, otherwise it will not be possible to develop to this point in a short period of time, but things will never be smooth sailing.
Since the birth of human beings, there has been another thing, and that is competition.
That's right, in order to compete for dominance, those level 3 and 4 city lords are fighting openly and secretly, some brainless people will only use violence to solve problems, but more smart people use soft knives to harm people.
This soft knife is to disrupt the market of a town.
When there is no one in a town to trade, no one to open handicrafts, no restaurants, then no one will exchange magic crystals for these crafts and food, and in the long run, people will choose to move to better towns, and the original town will be destroyed.
This time, several ambitious city lords around them joined forces and prepared to hold an auction in Zheng Yutong's town, and the level 5 magic crystal was the item entrusted by these city lords for auction.
And at this time, the level 5 magic crystal was stolen.
No matter who is behind it, it doesn't matter anymore, this is obviously a trap, if the level 5 magic crystal can't be recovered, it will undoubtedly be a slap in the face of the city lord Zheng Yutong.
At present, those city lords are taking the opportunity to deliberately spread rumors, and many merchants and demon hunters have decided to move to more 'powerful' towns to live, after all, people are not stupid, and only by clinging to powerful towns will they live better.
Therefore, it has become a very important thing to catch the thief as soon as possible, recover the level 5 magic crystal, and execute the thief in public to stabilize the situation.
And the person in charge of this matter is Xue Yan, who is known as the 'King of Assassination'.
Today's B3 powerhouse.
The remaining 6 people in this team are all good players in the city, and according to this strength, it is easy to hunt down a thief, but after searching for a few days in the level 3 illusion realm, there is no result.
Obviously, the information received earlier was wrong.
"Aubrey, I want you to explain immediately, why the target person suddenly went to the level 4 illusion realm, do you know, if this mission fails, we will have no credibility at all, and at that time, the city lords of several other towns will inevitably take the opportunity to make trouble, and they will even spread rumors that the level 5 magic crystal was secretly swallowed by us, and it will be impossible to explain when the time comes!" Xue Yan had a frosty face and reprimanded a man in front of him.
The man named Aubrey didn't dare to say a word, but judging from the light flashing in the corners of his eyes, he didn't seem to accept Xue Yan's accusation.
I haven't seen her for a year, Xue Yan has grown a lot taller, but it's still that baby face, the biggest change is her temperament, at this moment she is full of femininity, naturally, there are not a few male surnames who peek at this beauty around, but they are shocked by her prestige, and they only dare to take a look.
Li Wei walked over and confirmed that he had not recognized the wrong person.
However, he didn't know how to speak, his appearance was completely different a year ago, would Xue Yan recognize him?
Xue Yan, who obviously felt that someone was watching him, turned his head with a frosty face, looking at the source of that gaze.
But when she realized that she was just a teenager looking at her, she withdrew her gaze.
"This man...... Good face familiar" was a little strange in her own thoughts, Xue Yan shook her head, she didn't know the other party, maybe it was just an illusion.
Aubrey, who was reprimanded by Xue Yan, only had the opportunity to say at this time: "The information I got is that the thief is indeed in the level 3 illusion realm, but I don't know why he suddenly went to the level 4 illusion realm, according to the thief's surname, he must have found a bigger target,"
"A bigger goal?" Xue Yan pondered slightly, and then muttered uncertainly: "According to what I pointed out, there have been many masters who have inexplicably advanced towards the Level 4 Illusion Realm recently, and there are rumors that a masterless town will appear there in a few days, is it because of this?" ”
In the towns in the Phantom Realm, this was the first time Xue Yan had heard of it.
"So, shall we go and see?" Aubrey rolled his eyes and asked tentatively.
"Yes!" Xue Yan nodded.
This time, she must go, if she doesn't catch the thief back, there will definitely be a big mess in the town.
Once decided, she stopped talking, just stood there quietly, waiting for the teleportation array to open.
Suddenly, feeling that gaze again, Xue Yan was a little angry, and turned her head to see that it was still that young man.
"Hey, boy, what are you looking at?" She was already in a bad mood, and a fierce murderous aura poured out.
According to her thoughts, it would be good to scare and scare this young man, but she didn't expect that the other party was indifferent under that murderous aura, as if he couldn't feel it at all.
"Huh!" Feeling greatly surprised, Xue Yan took a step and walked over.
The adventurers around Li Wei all pushed back in fright, and many of them had heard of this woman opposite, even if they hadn't heard of it, as long as they inquired a little about what she had done, they were all frightened.
has assassinated 3 city lords, all of them are B-level powerhouses, and she has killed countless C-level people, especially her stunt, 'Rainfall', which is a nightmare for many people.
Moreover, what is even more terrifying are her two sworn sisters.
One is the city lord of a level 4 town, and he is an A-level powerhouse, and the other is a vampire queen, B3 level, all three of them are human characters, but unfortunately, no man dares to beat them.
Because anyone who doesn't open his eyes would have died in their hands a long time ago, and if it weren't for that tough means, a few women would not have been able to get where they are today.
Looking at Xue Yan who came over, Li Wei secretly said that the momentum of this little girl is really tough, but obviously, the other party did not recognize him.
Do you take the initiative to reveal your identity now, or do you want to talk about it later?
Li Wei fell into hesitation.
And at this moment, there was a change on the teleportation array, and it was obvious that the teleportation array to the level 4 illusion was about to be opened.
Glaring at Li Wei, Xue Yan stopped her steps, she knew that the thief had to be caught as soon as possible, as for the young man in front of her, she ignored it for the time being.
Looking at Xue Yan who was leaving, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Wei's mouth.
It's better not to reveal your identity for the time being, after all, her appearance has changed too much, even if she says it, Xue Yan may not believe it, and besides, this girl seems to be in some trouble, so it is better to help her secretly.
"Brother, you are good enough, in the face of this female devil, you don't blush or panting, I admire my little brother!" A young man dressed as an adventurer walked over and smiled with Li Wei.
"She's not a tiger, so why should I be afraid?" Li Wei pretended not to care.
"Also, hehe, brother, my name is Meng Tian, these are my companions, by the way, what do you call them?" This person named Meng Tian pointed to the dozen or so people behind him and introduced.
"Li Wei!"
Li Wei looked at the person behind Meng Tian, and already had a plan in his heart, this person's surname is Meng, is it the same as Meng Ting, is it the same force?
"Brother Li, I see that you are alone, why don't you go together, presumably you also came here to see the town of the level 4 illusion realm!" Meng Tian said in a low voice with an expression that I understood.
Li Wei was very surprised, how could these people know that the news of the main city appeared in the level 4 illusion realm?
After careful questioning, Li Wei knew that someone had already spread the news, otherwise there would not be so many people crowded here waiting to be transmitted.
Everyone has an idea, that is, to see if they can get a little benefit, even if they can't get it, they can open their eyes, besides, there are countless treasures in the level 4 illusion, if you are lucky enough to get one or two, then you can make a lot of money.
Meng Tian and Li Wei showed goodwill, it was also for this reason, there were many crises in the level 4 illusion realm, and if he could have one more companion, it would be an extra guarantee, so he would spare no effort to win over Li Wei, after all, judging from Li Wei's calm appearance when facing Xue Yan, the king of assassination, just now, it can be inferred that he is not an ordinary person.
In this regard, Li Wei did not shirk it, but happily joined this temporary team, after all, the abrupt person is too eye-catching.
Soon, the adventurers walked to the stone platform of the teleportation array one after another.
The teleportation array of this level 3 illusion realm is also several times larger than that of level 1 and level 2 illusions, and it is not a problem to have hundreds of people standing on it.
Li Wei followed Meng Tian to the teleportation array, and then secretly glanced at Xue Yan's side, it seemed that she was indeed quite famous among these adventurers, so that the surroundings of her team were empty, and no one else dared to approach.
Smiling helplessly, Li Wei continued to chat with Meng Tian without a word, and in less than two minutes, the teleportation array emitted a white light, opening the teleportation of the level 4 illusion.
