Chapter 474: Salvation! A Song of Light and Darkness (2)
At noon on this day, Gun Saw City was more unusual than ever, a team of heavily armed guards patrolled the streets and alleys, checking pedestrians, many buildings in the city were destroyed, and NPC workers were nervously rushing to repair them, but through those buildings, you can clearly identify that there had been fierce fights there, and the solemn atmosphere was like a dark cloud pressing down, filling the entire Gun Saw City.
The number of players in Gun Saw City is not as rare as it was yesterday. With the passage of time of the system update, players' footprints are undoubtedly broader than before the third turn, neutral cities such as Gun Saw City have appeared more and more in official forum exploration posts, and nearby players will naturally rush here to find out when they see similar regional exploration posts. As a result of the interaction between the two, an unfamiliar city soon becomes invasive, and NPCs are no longer the main attraction of the city.
At noon, most of the players in Gunsaw City gather in the middle of the city, because a major event is going on there, and for players in Gunsaw City, most of them are excited to wait for the end of this event, which also means the purchase of a 60+ blue quality equipment. Watching the play and getting equipment is such a pleasant thing.
In front of the fountain in the square, a temporary wooden platform was erected, and a thick pillar was inserted in the center of the platform, and the pillar was wrapped with chains the thickness of a thumb, and a beautiful female priest wearing a white priest's robe with blond hair and blue eyes was tied to it.
She is the most wanted criminal ordered by the city lord of Gun Saw City, the evil who betrays the light - the great priest Slinda, a high-level light priest with a level of 110, and a nine-star boss with a strength category.
Being able to hunt down such a boss-level NPC is naturally not the credit of the players. However, to the delight of the players in Gun Saw City, as long as the players who were at the scene of the capture and accepted the "Wanted: Hidden in the Light and Darkness" mission, at the same time as the Grand Priest Slinda was captured, this big story mission was prompted to go smoothly, and they only needed to rush to the central square of Gun Saw City together and wait for the guards to bring this hypocrite to justice, then the mission was completed.
When has the system ever been so generous? After receiving such a prompt from the system, a group of players naturally rushed to the central square and waited for the end of this big story mission. As for those players who came to Gun Saw City a little later, they were not willing to miss such a scene in addition to their frustration. Therefore, the entire Gun Saw City Square was surrounded by NPCs and players for a while, and many players turned on the video recording, ready to record such a scene and upload it to the official forum as soon as possible.
Behind the fountain in the square, in front of the huge statue of the Spear Knight, the ball-like Lord of Gunsaw City stood on the steps, waving his fat pig hands, and gave an impassioned pre-execution speech: "Gunsaw City is a city with a long history, and I, and the inhabitants of this city, are the most devout believers in the God of Light. I can't even tolerate even the slightest evil as dust lingering in front of me, but, Slinda, you hypocrite who turned your back on the light, bathed in the grace of the god of light, and colluded with the demons, must be your plot to destroy the entire army of the Snow Eagle Legion......"
The voice of the lord of Gun Saw City resounded throughout the city through magic amplification, and the NPC nobles and guards watching in the square burst of cheers and applause from time to time, but this sound fell on the ears of the players, but it was as greasy as a piece of fat, and many players had a disgusting look on their faces, and said in their hearts, if you are a player, you must rush up first and beat you into a pig's head, so that you are more worthy of the name.
In the back row of the Lord of Gunsaw City, there stood a column of important NPC officials from the town, as well as high-ranking priests sent by the Temple of Light, all of them with gold-inlaid white cloaks draped over their bodies, which looked spectacular from a distance, and few people would notice that there were two players standing in this group of high-level priest NPCs.
"Bad luck, standing behind this fat pig NPC, why do I feel so uncomfortable?" One of the two muttered uncontrollably.
"Alas!" The other person's words were full of helplessness, "If I had known that this fat pig city lord was so greasy when he gave a speech, I wouldn't have come just now, there is really no evil beauty, and when the villain comes to his sake, it is also a superlative." Forget it, think about the reward after completing this task, just think of it as the torment before getting the equipment, and bear with it a little longer, and bear with it......"
"Humph!"
………… Partition............
"As long as your eyesight is still normal, you won't believe that Grand Priest Slinda is a hypocrite, this scene is really ......" In the attic on the top floor of a building not far from the city square, Chu Qianyan stood in the shadow of the window, looking at the scene of the execution on the square, his eyes kept wandering between the fat pig-like gunsaw city lord and the beautiful and moving Lord Slinda, as long as he was a normal person, he could judge that there must be something greasy inside.
Of course, players don't care about this, and when you play the game, you just need equipment. As long as your system rewards equipment, who cares if you burn an angel or a demon. However, Chu Qianbian always felt that something was wrong, after this system update, if players still adhere to the concept that has always been ingrained, I am afraid that it will be easy to make a big mistake in the end. For example, in the quest "Wanted: Hidden in the Light and Darkness" issued by the Lord of Gunsaw City, it is true that players only need to wait until the death of the High Priest Slinda to automatically obtain equipment. However, he accepted the opposite plot mission, what if the high priest Slinda was successfully rescued by himself? What kind of scene will it turn into, and how much of a chain reaction it will cause.
According to Chu Qianbian's speculation, whether the plot tasks between the two sides are completed or not will even affect the battle in the North Wind Fortress, such a situation is completely unimaginable to players before. It's like players are really involved in a huge war, and each player's every move can affect the success or failure of the entire war.
And he, the captain of the "Thousand Faces Adventure Squad", what role does he, play in this battle between the NPC forces of the continent and the demons of the abyss?
Staring at the square in the distance, the scene of the NPC guards constantly piling up wood and coke under the platform, Chu Qianbian was stunned, and suddenly heard Mi Li'er next to him in shock, the girl gently tugged him, pointed to the crowd in the back row of the city lord of Gun Saw City, and said strangely: "Brother Qianhui, there are two people in that group of Bright Priest NPCs who are so strange, their information cannot be [perceived]. ”
"Huh!?" Chu Qianbian was stunned when he heard this, and looked in the direction that Mi Li'er was pointing, and sure enough, he saw that among the group of high-level NPC priests in front of the statue of the spear knight, there were two people's information that showed that the information was hidden, and with Chu Qianbian's professional vision, the position of these two people was deliberately chosen to be very hidden, and there were tall priest NPCs standing around the two of them, obviously not wanting to attract the attention of others.
Chu Qianbian silently observed the every move of these two people, he noticed that the two of them were talking quietly from time to time, and when one of them occasionally lowered his hood, the exposed hand was actually a black hand armor, seeing this scene, a sneer appeared on the corner of the druid's mouth, that black hand armor was very familiar to him, it was the equipment produced by the Hell Mode Ramoka Underground Palace.
It was not uncommon for a group of high-level priest NPCs with an average level of 80 or above to have a warrior class mixed together, after all, it was commonplace to use the army of the Rhine-Luns continent and the fragile cloth system to be equipped with several warriors as defenders. However, a soldier whose information cannot be perceived, and who is wearing top-level equipment below level 60 is mixed in, then the situation is too strange, the only explanation is that these two people are players, not only players, but also players who have received special plot tasks like Chu Qianyan.
Even, Chu Qianbian is more than seventy percent sure that the great priest Slinda is wanted, and it is very likely that the tasks of these two players are facilitated.
Chu Qianbian had a series of assumptions swirling in his mind, his gaze followed closely, and he saw the city lord of Gun Saw City shouting in the square: "Let's see the evidence of this hypocrite plunging into darkness......" As soon as the words fell, Chu Qianbian noticed that the other of the two players put his hands on his chest, drawing a mysterious magic rune, and at the same time, the scorching breath on the wooden platform flowed, and wisps of pale bone fire surrounded the great priest Slinda, reflecting her pale as paper.
"Hidden in the darkness of the light? It's funny. Chu Qianbian sneered even more on his face, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and two tall figures came out of the shadows of the attic, a level 90 high-level minotaur shield armor warrior, and a level 95 high-level orc thief, these two NPCs were the two people that Chu Qianbian met in the gem processing shop not long ago.
"Boss, what do you command?" The minotaur's name is Roca Blackhoof, no matter how low his voice is when he speaks, there is a kind of low hum of war drums in the attic, he pinched a pair of bull's palms, and the bones of his whole body crackled and crackled, "For that [Perfect Obsidian Crystal Diamond], I will send a service to help the boss kill everyone in the square." ”
"......" Chu Qianbian looked at Roca Blackhoof speechlessly, "No need, you go to the established position and wait for instructions." ”
"Okay." Roca Blackhoof looked at Chu Qianyan with regret, and quietly disappeared into the shadows.
As for the orc thief Maca next to him, whose professional branch is Berserker, he frowned and muttered, "Boss, if you had arranged it earlier, I would have poisoned all of these guys at the city lord's banquet last night." Now, it's too much trouble, it's not safe to have a thief fight during the day! ”
Poison......! Is this guy's branch of the Rogue class really a berserker? Chu Qianbian waved his hand helplessly, signaling Maca to also enter the established position and wait for instructions, and the druid's figure disappeared into the corner, and in the shadows, he saw Chu Qianbian take out a ring, and the air in the entire attic suddenly spiraled......
