Chapter 277: Bloody Spread, Storm Will Rise
Bing Lei and North and the others were calm on the surface, but they set off a lot of waves in their hearts.
Just now, Sect Master Lu's words revealed a very important information-
The teacher of Four Seasons Rice is actually a fifth-order pharmacist!
They didn't know it before.
Su Xia's teacher, who is stronger or weaker compared to that pharmacist?
"If it weren't for the fact that the teacher of Four Seasons Rice refused to get involved in the dispute in Coral City, we would have been able to make a lot of cheap potions." Sect Master Lu looked at everyone and said, "This game has a high degree of freedom, and there is not only one Su Xia who can get stuck bugs!" ”
"So Four Seasons Rice is really your father?" Ice Thunder asked him seriously.
"You ......"
Sect Master Lu clenched his fists, his face turned blue with anger, if it weren't for the fact that this was within the city limits, a fight would disrupt the order in the city, otherwise he really wanted to start a war with Bing Lei and the others on the spot!
At the moment, I can only endure it for a while and figure out what happened in the pharmacy.
Why did Su Xia become the owner of the pharmacy?
Why didn't Yu Tuo close down the pharmacy?
They didn't dare to ask Yu Tuo directly about these things, so they could only wait for the official news from Coral City, or poke out the news from the mouths of the people around Su Xia.
On the forum, the little ant gave a new picture.
[Picture .jpg]
[Note that not long ago, Pharmacist Su and his two senior brothers seem to have signed some kind of agreement with Yu Tuo]
[According to the situation on the scene, Yu Tuo was very satisfied with this agreement, as if he regarded Su Yaoshi as his own]
【……】
Based on what everyone saw and the news coming out of the forum, the possibility of Su Xia defecting to the enemy is getting higher and higher.
Bing Lei and North and the others have no opinion on this, they know Su Xia's character, no matter what they choose now, they will definitely stand with them in the end.
Even if you're not with them, you've got to be with the Beechburg team, right?
Unless the entire Beechburg team surrenders.
Moreover, Yu Tuo's original intention of supporting Su Xia was to let him go to the intelligence department to stir up the situation and destroy the situation of Wu Zhonggui and Sijidao being in cahoots.
In essence, even if Su Xia defected to the enemy, he would still be opposed to the Four Seasons Rice group within the enemy.
"Anyway, Brother Su's title is really good-looking, golden, there have been other players who have gotten the title before, but most of them are white or gray, what level is Brother Su's gold?"
"I don't know, it's very stylish anyway."
North himself has a title, but it's not very good, it's called [Sow Master], gray-white, has been hidden, and has no face to release.
This title was automatically awarded by the system one night after he killed more than 100 wild boars in a row in order to level up.
In addition, most of the titles that have appeared so far are [Lumberjack], [Monster Hunter], [Diligent Gatherer], and [Little Errand Runner], which are mostly useless.
The title of [Monster Hunter] is a bit useful, it is green, and it can increase the damage of non-humanoid monsters by 1%-3%.
"The robot soldiers are gone, can we get there?"
"Wait, there are still a few robots blocking the block that haven't been withdrawn, it should be soon."
Some people couldn't wait to go over to find Su Xia to understand the situation, and some people used the private chat system to ask Su Xia, but they never got a reply.
It's not that Su Xia doesn't want to reply.
It's just that now his private chat system is about to explode.
Just the messages sent by friends have soared to 999+, and they are all red at a glance, and there are so many stranger messages that his scalp is numb.
He didn't have that much energy to reply one by one, so he could only wait for the automatons to withdraw their troops and explain slowly.
And so on, until noon.
Su Xia simply went offline, had lunch, and talked to a few roommates in the cafeteria about the current situation.
"Brother Su, according to what you say, that Mercer is the key?" Li Defu asked, holding the plate.
"Hmm." Su Xia nodded.
"Then what if Mercer comes back and doesn't approve of Yu Tuo's decision, and has to forcibly seal down the pharmacy?" The head of the room, Yuwen Shuxue, sat on the side, looked at Su Xia and asked.
"Don't worry, Yu Tuo is also the nominal mechanical city lord of this city no matter what he says, and Mercer will give him this face."
"Will something happen?" He Split asked: "Didn't Brother Su say before that Yu Tuo and Mercer had a fight, and because they didn't agree with the concept, they were beaten violently. ”
"No, the relationship between Yu Tuo and Mercer is not so simple, and in general, the interests are the same."
A few people in the dormitory chatted while eating.
During this period, I often have gaming friends passing by and will greet them.
Since the game was launched, the core six members of the Beechburg team are already celebrities, and even Li Defu has a lot of fans.
It is said that he also has a lot of female fans, and he has been full of spring breeze during this time, even in winter, he smells the breath of peach blossoms.
But when several people asked him if he had any thoughts about getting off the list, he shook his head firmly.
"No, you can't delay playing the game because you're in love!"
"Well said, Defu is very good at me!" The head of the room, Yuwen Shuxue, smiled and praised with a thumbs up.
A few people talked and laughed, ate and drank enough, and slowly returned to the dormitory to continue the liver game.
The time came to one o'clock in the afternoon.
In the sky above Coral City, the dark clouds completely dispersed, and the miserable white sun became more warm and yellow.
It was at this time that Mercer finally returned with his army.
Along with this, there are several shocking news.
"Have you heard? Two rebel garrisons in the wilderness have been destroyed! ”
"What, what just happened today?"
"yes, just a few hours ago!"
The news spread quickly, and it seemed that the automaton had deliberately released it.
The blood-stained mechanical army returned to the city, full of murderous intent, and the temperature of the entire city instantly dropped to freezing, and many people were terrified, not understanding why there was such a heavy killing aura.
This is the first time that most players in Coral City have seen a full army of automatons.
The terrifying army covered the field of vision of countless people, from the sky to the earth, like an unstoppable torrent of metal, which was so shocking that it made people tremble when they saw it, and they couldn't think of any way to resist it.
"Oh my God, are there so many robots in Coral City?" Many players couldn't help but marvel, their eyes widening, "Where were all these robots hiding in the past?" ”
Seeing the spectacular and terrifying army of the mechanical clan, Bing Lei, Noth and the others all shuddered, deeply realizing that they had completely underestimated the mechanical clan before.
After Su Xia had an accident with the pharmacy last night, they also planned to launch a player attack on Coral City and snatch Su Xia out.
Looking at it now, the gap between the army of players and the army of the mechanical clan is like a firefly compared to the moon.
"That's a human head! Look, there are so many heads! ”
At the rear of the mechanical army, there were long metal poles erected, the silver-white poles had been dyed black and brown by the dried blood, and the long poles were covered with dead human heads.
The cold wind blew, and the rich smell of blood spread into the heavens and the earth, and the hair of those heads was like withered grass flying in the wind.
Obviously, those heads were the trophies of the Automaton's expedition.
This picture not only reminds people of - the last time An Lan was ambushed by the army led by the commander of the North Wind, and after the battle, his head was also stuck on a long pole.
Photographs from that time are still circulating in secret.
"Are the mechs doing this in response to the actions of the Commander of the North Wind last time?"
"Do they think of Commander of the North Wind as an opponent?"
It's not just the players who think this way, but the people of the city who think so too.
In the past, the Automatons had never looked at the rebels in the wilderness, and had only treated them as little bugs in the way.
Soon, there was also a message from players on the game's forums.
[My novice map has been washed in the blood of the Mechanics, all the NPCs are dead, even my mentor has been killed, where should I go next?] 】
[My novice village was also slaughtered! Damn, when I came back from the mission, I couldn't find the NPCs who handed in the mission! 】
The reaction of the players confirmed the outcome of this battle of the mechanical clan.
It is true that two of the old garrisons of the rebels were slaughtered, and the mechs did not attack in the middle of the night this time, and directly crushed them with absolute strength.
Underneath these posts, there are player comments:
"Brother, join the big family of our resistance alliance, if we don't resist, our station will be slaughtered one by one sooner or later!"
"Yes, brothers from these two stations, you can come to our station temporarily......"
This is the voice of the rebel alliance, very unified.
A few roommates took the opportunity to build momentum and promoted the Resistance Alliance, directly branding the Cyborg into an evil organization.
They also hinted that the main game at the current stage must defeat the mechanical family, and cannot develop against the main game line.
But Sect Leader Lu and others also hurriedly made propaganda for themselves.
"Brother, don't listen to them, come directly to Coral City." Sect Leader Lu personally went down, "Now that the resources in the city and suburbs are not saturated, as long as you come over, we will compensate for your losses...... Why struggle to survive in the barren wilderness? ”
The arguments on the forums never stop, and you can see quarrelsome posts every day.
At this time, in the game, many players and aborigines are confused.
"Is it just to defeat the headquarters of two small rebel groups that the mechanical clan has sent out such a big scene?"
You must know that not long after the server was launched, Dragon City sent a large number of emissaries to various resistance group stations, persuading them to evacuate the old station, cut off the player, and go to the new station.
In the old station, only a small number of members will be left to contact the outside world.
Today, the two stations of the mechanical harvest are the same old ones as before, and there are not one out of ten members of the resistance group in them, and most of them have been transferred.
It didn't take long for new news to come out.
[The mechs harvested the locations of the two resistance groups just to vent their anger]
This news came from within the mechanical base.
The Machines did not hide the failure of the two-day operation.
Soon, the whole thing became clear.
"I heard that the mechanical clan dispatched a large army to attack a large united resistance garrison, but the other party received the news in advance and has evacuated."
"The robot in the lead was very angry, and on the way back, he slaughtered the two small organizations' stations to vent his anger."
"Huh? Just a little bit of a hand? ”
"yes......"
The emotions that came out of the news were strange.
It was as if the cyborg were just in a bad mood and trampled two ants to death along the way.
Su Xia sat behind the counter of the store, and after hearing the news, she was silent for a long time.
Unexpectedly, Mercer was so angry that he broke his defense.
After a while, even more shocking news came out, this time, the entire Coral City was shaken.
[In addition to the Resistance garrison, the Automati also accidentally erased the hidden contact point of the two Zero Taverns in the wilderness]
[None of the tavern members survived, their heads stuck in those long metal poles]
【……】
The matter was so big that everyone widened their eyes and looked incredulous as soon as they received the news.
In the office building, Qi Lang, who saw the news, trembled in his heart, and stood up directly from his seat, sweat oozing from his forehead, and he always felt that something big was going to happen.
That's the Zero Tavern!
On the mechanical side, the news given was actually a "miss".
"This reason is so perfunctory!"
Qi Lang was uneasy, walked around the office, and hurriedly asked his secretary Chai An to find a way.
It is clear from this incident that the Cyborg are deliberate, ostensibly using the secret contact point of the Zero Tavern as a resistance organization, but in fact they want to kill the people of the Zero Tavern.
What the hell happened and why is it happening?
In case the Zero Tavern begins to retaliate, countless killers will be dispatched, and Qi Lang, a human who was pushed to the table by the mechanical clan, will be the first to suffer.
"Don't worry, Lord Lord, something should have happened that we don't know about." Chai An said patiently: "The leader this time is the mysterious Lord Mercer, as the person who dominates the Lord's side, Lord Mercer has a strong sense of the overall situation, if it were not for a reason, he would not act like this." ”
"But he still killed the two tavern contact points!" Qi Lang grabbed his hair, afraid that things would be completely big.
"Didn't you give a reason, it was a mistake." Chai An said with a gentle smile.
"The people at the Zero Tavern aren't stupid, will they believe that?"
"Lord of the City, what you want for this level of negotiation is not a reason, but a step that can be eased." Chai An patiently explained, "Reason, just give one at will, and not giving anything is a declaration of war." ”
"This ...... Can it still be like this? ”
"Yes, we just have to be patient."
Wait, this is the judgment of Chai An, and it is also the judgment of most people in the city.
This incident is so unbelievable, there must be a reason for it.
Many people have guessed that the failure of the mechanical expedition is mostly related to the Zero Tavern.
Killing the two contact points is just the automaton expressing their attitude.
Next, what I am waiting for is the attitude of the Zero Point Tavern.
If both sides have problems and take a step back, the matter may eventually be silently resolved, and the automaton has made a mistake.
"I heard that for the masked monster incident, a high-level member of the Zero Point Tavern has come to our city, and it is just right to talk and negotiate directly."
There was a lot of discussion in the dark, and the name of Fan Lu was mentioned, and the atmosphere of the whole city became more and more tense in the blood and slaughter.
At this time, Su Xia was still in the pharmacy, quietly basking in the warm afternoon sun, waiting for the last moment.
I don't know how long it took, but a gust of wind blew, and there was a silent figure outside the store.
Mercer, he actually came in person.
He was dressed in a standard black tuxedo, with a tall posture and a black cane, like a gentleman in the Middle Ages, but there was no gentle smile on his face, and his eyes were terrifyingly indifferent.
There are still blood stains on the corners of the drooping clothes, and I don't know whose it is.
He doesn't have a huge metal body like Yu Tuo's main body, and his appearance and body are similar to normal people, but the sense of oppression he can bring is not weak at all, as if one person is worth thousands of troops.
He looked up and looked indifferently at the store's new sign.
"Drugstore ......"
In the shop, Hong Bafu and Lan Bafu were motionless, only to feel that there was a cold mountain pressing on their bodies, and even breathing became difficult.
The pressure grew stronger and stronger, gradually pressing down on their faces and making it harder and harder to breathe, almost suffocating.
Did Mercer want to kill them?
The two of them looked black in front of them, but they clung to the corner of the table, holding on to prevent themselves from falling.
After a moment, just when they thought they were about to die, the terrifying pressure suddenly relaxed.
"Whew...... Whew......"
Hong Bafu and Lan Bafu clutched their chests, gasping for breath, their faces as white as paper.
The two looked at each other with an indelible horror in their eyes.
Just now, they really walked away from the ghost gate.
Looking outside the shop, Mercer's figure had disappeared, and only one cold word came from the wind.
"Since Yu Tuo believes in you, I'll give you a chance, you can do it yourself!"
