Chapter 569: The Straight Galaxy

The galaxy does not fall into a dream!

Luo Yu remembered this guy.

When they were in the Valley of the Lost, the two of them drove the Cloud Fly together, and they were the pilot, and he was the gunner.

It's a pity that this guy was unlucky, he was beaten on the spot, and although he was gone, he also received a small feather because of misfortune. Now that I think about it, if I had been a gunner at that time, it is estimated that Xiao Yu would have to be called Xiaoxing" or "Xiaohe".

Sure enough, "Xiao Yu" is better.

Both of them are solo players, and although they have added friends, they have basically never teamed up much. He never thought that he would meet this guy seven or eight hundred kilometers away from Dawn City.

This fate is simply amazing!

"Do the task! What else can you do? ”

Looking at the dumbfounded falling feathers, Xinghe smiled, patted the LD-47 hanging on his chest, and continued.

"This battle is over, I'm also in the middle of the eight classics, it's time to practice and level up, damn, this game is too real, it's been months and I haven't figured it out."

If it's another game, level 10 is also the level of a novice village, and you can get there by following the main line two steps.

However, in "Wasteland OL", although level 10 is also the level of the novice village, it will take a month or two to grind it out.

He'd never played a game so hard to level up!

The most outrageous thing is that although the experience points and levels are quantified, the growth curve is not smooth, sometimes the kills have experience, sometimes the kills do not.

Although there is a strategy written by Elder Brother Fang on the official website, it is also very vague, only mentioning in general terms that "experience returns are positively correlated with risks".

In other words, you can level up quickly only by constantly dying, but if you do die, the experience accumulated before the last save will be cleared.

How to take into account the benefits, risks, and losses at the same time, and the upgrade of the highest efficiency, there is a lot of knowledge in this, and many players in the TO and T1 echelons are still studying.

Of course, it's okay to ignore these foolish things at all.

This is the case with Galaxy.

Although he had the idea of leveling, he didn't bother to think about it so much, so he simply took on a mission to go far away, and by the way, he went to see how big the game world was.

"This game is really a bit annoying in some inexplicable places," Luo Yu nodded approvingly, and asked casually, "...... By the way, what is your mission? ”

"There is a merchant named Zhou Nan in Dawning City, who claims that his parents and brother's family have been detained by a farmer near Hope Town, and asked me to bring a sum of money to ransom people back."

The task ......

Sounds familiar.

Looking at Luo Yu, who was stunned for some reason, Xinghe smiled, squeezed his eyebrows and said.

"Guess how much the mission rewards?"

Luo Yu swallowed.

"How much?"

Save 100,000 people and save a family...... Not millions?!

As if confirming his suspicions.

With a smug smile on his face, Xinghe slowly raised a finger.

β€œβ€¦β€

"Ten thousand!"

The air was quiet for a moment.

The atmosphere was subtly cold.

Looking at Luo Yu, who was unresponsive, the expression on Xinghe's face gradually changed from smug to embarrassed, and he coughed lightly.

"Uh, were you scared? Wild NPCs do give more than official quests, but they don't have any contribution points and regional prestige, which is not an exaggeration. ”

What should I say, looking at the Xinghe brothers who were in the wrong direction, Luo Yu subtly looked away, "Touch your head?" ”

"What the hell is touching your head?!"

Looking at the emotional Xinghe, Luo Yu hesitated, but in the end he couldn't bear to watch him being exploited by NPCs, so he said in euphemistic terms.

"Actually...... I also received a similar mission to you, to go to the Pinecone Farm to rescue a man. ”

"Alone?"

"Well," Luo Yu nodded slowly, "Probably, it looks like 100,000 was given." ”

"One hundred thousand?!"

Xinghe's eyes widened, staring at him in disbelief, and his expression seemed to say "fake" again.

(This chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue)

But the truth is always so cruel.

Luo Yu suddenly thought of something, and said with an "ah".

"You took the mission directly in the tavern, right? Didn't pass the Mercenary Guild? ”

Xinghe: "Yes, but I can't be blamed for this, I'm on the road, and I just heard about the establishment of a mercenary guild on the official website." ”

I see.

A sudden expression appeared on Luo Yu's face.

Now the case is solved.

"Tsk, no wonder you didn't take on the task through the VM, this is not only a low income, but also a mercenary career experience."

"it!" Xinghe almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood, and he broke the defense on the spot.

Boy.

He thought that this task gave him a lot, and he had picked up a treasure, but he didn't expect to become a pure unjust species.

Looking at the Xinghe brothers who had begun to doubt their lives, Luo Yu couldn't help but blame himself a little, whether it was better not to tell him the truth.

"Maybe it's not the same difficulty? There are more than 50,000 people in that pine cone farm, and I heard that it is a closed settlement, so it is not so easy to enter, and the employer did not say anything about the ransom, and eighty percent planned for me to snatch people directly. ”

When he said this, Luo Yu suddenly thought of something.

"Oh yes, ransom... That NPC gave you the ransom? ”

Xinghe wanted to cry and nodded without tears.

"Well, five thousand dinars...... One thousand people, five in total. ”

There is no fixed exchange rate between the dinar and the silver coin, but I heard that in the west of the continent of Middle-earth, a thousand dinars can buy an adult slave with ordinary qualifications.

Human trafficking is prohibited within the borders of the Alliance, and the dinar is usually only used as a reward for mercenaries or bounty hunters, with little real purchasing power.

The five thousand dinars were both a ransom and an advance deposit for the target, and he needed to bring the man back to Dawn safely in order to receive the full bounty from his employer.

Luo Yu scratched his head.

"I have an idea to reduce your losses."

Xinghe immediately asked.

"What's the idea?"

Luo Yu: "You snatched people directly, isn't the ransom yours?" ”

The mercenary guild's tasks can't be done like this, but private work should be left alone.

Although there is no official exchange channel for dinars and silver coins, it should still be possible to exchange them for silver coins on the black market. Xinghe was stunned.

"Ah......h Is that okay?! ”

Luo Yu nodded.

"I think it's okay, after all, the target is a slave owner, and the target is a slave whose freedom is restricted. According to the terms of the Player's Handbook, active violence with the intent to remove physical restraint is not punished. In other words, the slave owner's estates and slave catchers were not protected by the rules of the refuge. ”

It's not just slave owners.

There are also NPC forces that are contrary to the values of the Alliance, or that fall into the Chaos and Evil camp, are also unprotected.

For example, the Torch Church, the Enlightenment, and so on.

Although the alliance also does not recommend players to cause trouble in other people's settlements.

After all, an unrecognized order is in fact an order, and physically eliminating one or two people will not solve any problems, but may create new problems.

However, this sentence of "not punished" woke up the galaxy.

His eyes fiery at a speed visible to the naked eye, his eyes staring at Luo Yu fiercely, grabbed his arm.

"Good brother! Help me! ”

"Help... How does this help. Luo Yu looked at Xinghe with fiery eyes in a daze, suddenly thought of something, and was taken aback, "Damn, didn't you let me help you rob people, right?" I have a task to do myself, or you can help you when I get back. ”

Not being punished by the shelter doesn't mean you won't be hated by the locals. He didn't want to be on a mission and have to deal with a bounty stuck in his head.

Seeing that this brotherhood had misunderstood what he meant, Xinghe hurriedly explained with a smile.

"Well, I'm not talking about help in the way you understand."

"So, what's that?"

"You just reminded me," Xinghe Yin smiled sympathetically and pulled Luo Yu aside, (this chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue)

Slowly, he continued, "Since the rights and interests of slavers are not protected by the Player's Handbook, then... It's okay to fool around, right? ”

"Flickering?" Luo Yuhu glanced at him suspiciously, "What do you want to fool." ”

There are many smart people in this wasteland.

And this guy has just been cheated by NPCs, and it's really hard for him to be optimistic about thinking that this guy still has the ability to fool others.

Xinghe continued with a smile.

"It's simple, your exoskeleton is called K-10 Iron Wall, right?"

"Uh, yes......"

"I remember that this equipment was only supplied to the Boulder City Militia and was not sold to the outside world... That's right, right? ”

"That's not quite accurate," Luo Yu corrected him, "Last month, some of the militia in Boulder City resold their equipment, and some of the equipment went outside. ”

For example, the set on his body, and the little feathers behind him, were all wool at that time, and they were bought from Elder Brother Fang at almost a discount.

If it weren't for the current purchase price of fifteen thousand silver coins, he wouldn't have been able to afford that money.

"I know," glancing at the group of little feathers behind Luo Yu, Xinghe continued slowly, "One thing really doesn't mean anything... But what if it's a group? ”

"You'd better get it straight...... What the hell do you want to do? ”

Looking at Luo Yu, whose eyes were gradually alert, Xinghe, who had seen the dagger, said with a smile.

"It's very simple, if that Zhou is my employer, and he becomes a guest of a big man in Boulder City, or simply becomes a big man himself, then the people from the militia group come to ask for someone, do you think the slave owner here dares to say a word?"

"it?!" Luo Yu's eyes widened, "You guys want to pretend to be people from the militia group to cheat?" Are you not afraid of a diplomatic dispute? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, what kind of diplomacy is there in a small settlement? Xinghe hurriedly said, "And we're here to save people!" You know how to save people? ”

"Butβ€”"

Seeing that Luo Yu was still hesitating, Xinghe continued quickly.

"Don't worry, brother, this is hundreds of kilometers away from Boulder City, and it will be impossible to be demolished! If I owe you a personal favor, don't you have to save people in the future? If this method is good, we can use it again at the Pinecone Farm! You help your brother this time, and brother will help you next time! Let's cover each other, and we don't need to spend a penny of ransom to get all the hostages out! ”

Hiss......

Seems to make some sense, huh?

Luo Yu thought about it for a while, and felt that this idea was really good!

The alliance had just taken over Boulder City, and the surrounding slave owners were trembling when they saw it, wouldn't it be easy for them to go to the surrounding slave owners and a few hostages in the name of the Boulder City militia group?

Just do it when you think of it.

Luo Yu no longer hesitated, and immediately went to the south gate of Hope Town with Xiao Yu and the sub-entities and Xinghe.

Although there are barricades at the gate of the town, they only block goods and cars, and do not restrict people from entering and exiting here.

As for a ruthless person like Luo Yu with a fierce and vicious thug, the guards standing at the door didn't dare to persuade them, so they could only watch them leave silently.

The Hope Farm in the mission is just south of Hope Town.

A three-story artillery tower stood like a castle in the middle of a field of farmland, surrounded by a concrete wall, with only a dirt path leading to the town next door.

Most of the people living in the town were free people, and the row of shacks outside the turret was probably where the serfs lived.

The landlord named Kong Lingkai lived inside the concrete fence and was said to be a big man in the town.

Looking at the Makqin I on the concrete wall and the "riding gun, it is not difficult to guess that this guy has made a fortune by doing business with the Alliance."

The two players exchanged information along the way, and while they exchanged lines, they also used the VM to translate some possible sentences.

It doesn't matter if the pronunciation is not standard, the Coalition's shelter dwellers speak like this, and the slurred words are more credible.

A group of twelve people arrived at the edge of the turret.

A heavily armed guard station (this chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue)

They waited on the four-meter-high gatehouse, as if they had been seen from a distance.

Xinghe was about to open his mouth to explain his intentions, when the guard on the gatehouse shouted.

"You're from the Alliance?"

Hey?

Are the people here quite good?

Seeing that the other party actually recognized them directly, Xinghe suddenly snickered in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and shouted with his chin high.

"It's good to recognize it! Let your master come out to me! ”

According to the script he had envisioned, after learning that they were members of the Alliance, the guard would have crawled back to report the news, and then the owner would politely invite them in and greet them.

However, to the surprise of both players, instead of being half afraid, the guard's face sneered with his nose.

"Oh, how do I recognize it? You're all on your fifth trip this month! With all the trouble going to this big farm, you're really free! ”

Hearing this, Xinghe and Luo Yu were stunned on the spot.

"I'm blanching?!"

"The Coalition has been here?!"

Impossible

They go to the official website every day.

If the Coalition had ever been here, they would have been the first to know.

Seeing that the two of them did not understand the situation, the guard pursed his lips disdainfully.

"There were people who claimed to have come from the Alliance to give us a horse, and told us to either hand over all the slaves or get out of here, and we almost believed it! Our master said that if anyone claiming to be from the alliance comes to ask for food, let their managers come over in person! ”

Luo Yu and Xinghe glanced at each other and communicated with a confused gaze.

Absolutely not a player...

No need to be forced, I can guess with my ass that eighty percent of them are wastelanders outside!

Mommy......

These dogs are so cunning!

Doing bad things in the name of the Alliance!

Is this a human thing?!

Glancing at the translator on the VM, Xinghe gritted his teeth and shouted loudly towards the gatehouse with a hint of threat.

"Are you going to release them?"

The guard said with a smile.

"If you want someone, you can, take the money to redeem it!"

It's just twelve people, and it's not worth his fear.

What does it look like even if you wear an exoskeleton?

In the turret behind him, there were five Maxim machine guns, and there were fields and no bunkers around him, so they really shot these twelve people into a sieve in minutes.

Seeing that the guard was not false at all, Xinghe muttered in his heart, gritted his teeth and said.

"I've got to see if people are still alive."

The guards on the wall looked at him twice, and they were even more fearless.

"Oh? There's already a goal... Tell me, what's that man's name? ”

Xinghe took out a note, looked at it, and shouted.

"Zhou Da Niu!"

This name can be said to be dirty.

However, the guard on the wall was stunned when he heard this, and then his face changed.

"Did Zhou Nan let you come?!"

Xinghe was stunned, not knowing why he reacted so much, Luo Yu next to him hurriedly gave him a hand, and said in a low voice.

"Eighty percent of your employers are businessmen raised by the farmers here!"

"I know......"

"You know you still say that?!"

"Or else?" Xinghe looked at him in wonder and said, "I don't say who I want to ransom, how can I redeem people." ”

Luo Yu said with a smile.

", you really don't understand or don't understand, you want a hostage! Do the hostages understand? Do you expect to redeem people for that little money? ”

Either people are so scared that they take the initiative to hand it over, or they directly snatch people back, and it is absolutely impossible to go to the door with the ransom money to ransom.

That's a rope around your neck.

Even if it can be redeemed, it is definitely not something that can be done for a few thousand dinars, and depending on the size of the transaction, it will cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of silver coins.

He was also overwhelmed by this guy's reaction.

It stands to reason that even if this big brother (this chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue)

My brother doesn't know the situation in Geumcheon Province, so his employer should know something, right?

Eighty percent of them are misunderstandings.

For example, when he took the assignment and asked, "How can I ransom someone if I don't have money", the employer paid him the several thousand dinars as an additional gratuity and a deposit for the task.

This time, Xinghe finally came to his senses.

"it!"

Seeing that the guard hurriedly turned around and went back to report the news, Xinghe suddenly became anxious, hurriedly cut out the words on the VM and shouted, and shouted towards the wall.

"Slow down, friend, I don't know who Zhou Nan you are talking about, we are from the Boulder City Militia Regiment, and it was our commander who asked us to ask for someone!"

It seems too late to say that.

"Let your employer do it yourself!" A loud voice interrupted him, and he saw a man wearing an exoskeleton standing on the wall.

Unlike the manager, although he wraps himself tightly with high-end equipment, he doesn't look like he can fight.

The old pale face was black and shiny with a handful of beards, and a pair of dark eyes like mice.

Behind him stood a dozen heavily armed soldiers, half of whom were from Dawning City and half from Boulder City, which was good.

and the turret at his feet is not at all the same style of painting.

"Tsk, the wings are stiff, it's not good to want to fly away from me and forget about his roots, if it weren't for me, he wouldn't have a chance to get out of here in his life."

Looking at Xinghe, whose expression was stunned, the man smiled grimly and continued.

"Please go back and tell your employer for me, I hate this little cleverness. If he uses this clumsy method to test my bottom line again, I will chop off the hands of my father and mother and his eldest brother and send it to him. ”

"Of course, I'm a very talkative person, if you want to redeem your family, you can pay back the principal and interest owed to me! I think 10 million Cr should be enough, or 100 million dinars is fine. ”

Luo Yu glanced at Xinghe in confusion.

"Is your employer so rich?"

Xinghe shook his head in confusion.

"No, right...... Probably. ”

The guy looks like a trader, and he does a lot of business, but judging from the way he wears, he doesn't look like he's very rich.

Ten million silver coins.

That's a lot of money.

Looking at the group of people who didn't speak under the gatehouse, Kong Lingkai rolled his eyes slightly, and suddenly spoke.

"You're also employed, right, so how much did he give you?"

"One...... Twenty thousand silver coins. ”

Luo Yu glanced at Xinghe in surprise, and saw that the latter was straightforward, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and it seemed that he had grown a little.

The man standing on the gatehouse heard the number and smiled pleasantly on his face.

"According to the contract I made, he should give me the dividends for the second half of last year before March this year, and I think about it, it will be about one million silver coins."

After reading the translation on the VM, Xinghe's eyes widened.

"So much?!"

"Of course, that man is very rich, and why do you think he can make so much? It's not because I gave him the money to do business and give him cheap food, but all his possessions are mine. 10,000 silver coins want to take off the rope around his neck, this guy is too naΓ―ve. ”

Kong Ling smiled and continued.

"Let's make a deal, you help me tie that guy from the alliance here, and I'll give you 200,000 silver coins!" Hearing this number, the two were shocked.

Boy!

Two hundred thousand!

There is also this hidden option for this mission?!

Thinking of how many RMB 200,000 silver coins could be exchanged for, Xinghe felt his hands tremble, but he quickly calmed down.

Kidnap NPCs in the Alliance......

I'm afraid that this money will be earned, and I won't have a chance to spend it.

"I'm sorry, I can't promise you." Looking at the man on the gatehouse, Xinghe said in a non-joking tone.

Hearing this, Luo Yu almost didn't spray.

"I'm blanching! Are you stupid? Just refused? ”

Looking at the emotional falling feathers, (this chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue)

Xinghe asked rhetorically with a strange expression.

"So what's not? Rescuing people doesn't violate the Player's Handbook, but the nature of the kidnapping changes. ”

Seeing that this guy's head hadn't turned around yet, Luo Yu said with hatred.

"It's not that you can't pretend to agree first, and then win this guy's trust and take the opportunity to snatch people back."

Xinghe was stunned, and the whole person was shocked.

"it?!"

Can it still be like this?

Looking at this upright guy, Luo Yu couldn't help but cover his face, ashamed that he felt that he had grown up for a moment.

"Is it the first time you've played this kind of high-freedom RPG?"

But he didn't seem to be in a position to laugh at him.

When I first played this game, it was also quite straightforward, and the NPC believed what it said.

Looking at the two people who were arguing, the man standing on the gatehouse showed a look of disappointment on his face, but it was only a little.

He shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly.

"Then there's nothing to talk about."

Xinghe hurriedly raised his right hand.

"Wait a minute, I've changed my mindβ€”"

Before he could finish his words, the town not far behind him suddenly heard the sound of a bell with a clang, followed by several dense gunshots and a rough roar.

Everyone present was attracted by the gunshot.

Especially Kong Lingkai, who was standing on the gatehouse, heard the rapid bell, his face suddenly changed, and he was vaguely aware of something in his heart.

At that moment, a flustered-looking servant ran behind him, panting for breath.

"Great, sir! In town, just calledβ€”"

Without waiting for him to catch his breath, Kong Lingkai reached out and grabbed him, and asked anxiously.

"What's going on?"

"Change, mutant!" The servant's face was pale, and his head was covered with sweat in the winter, and he said tremblingly, "Mutants, kill here!" ”
