As the city gate slowly opened, Yi Xuan was overjoyed. He finally found the organization in this unfamiliar place and had a place to stay. Since entering the second floor, this is obviously the most celebrated moment.
The door opened, and the whole picture of Tristram gradually appeared in front of Yi Xuan's eyes. As the most legendary town in Diablo, Tristram plays an important role in the dark world. Seeing the whole town, Yi Xuan was disappointed.
The size of the town is small, which can be seen through the outer walls, but Yi Xuan did not expect that there are not many buildings inside. Perhaps because of the baptism of war, most of the houses in the town are in dilapidated condition. , Sparsely distributed around the stone road, on the land beside the stone road, the land that should have been neat is overgrown with weeds, and you can see that it hasn't been taken care of for a long time.
There are not many pedestrians walking in the streets of the town. Occasionally, one or two of them also look frightened. Seeing the gate opened, everyone stopped and looked out curiously. When they saw that a group of people who entered the gate seemed to possess As mercenaries with extraordinary combat effectiveness, everyone's faces were filled with joy and excitement, as if they were very happy with the strengthening of the city defense.
However, several old people in the distance seemed not optimistic about the fighting situation, frowning and looking at Yi Xuan and his group, pointing at some of the more distinctive people among the mercenaries.
Naturally, Yi Xuan was included, especially the rune sword in his hand, which made these townsfolk seem very uneasy.
Yi Xuan did not take into account the strange and inquiring eyes of those people. Anyway, they are just some popular-faced NPCs, extras, and they can't play a decisive role. Following the Falcon Mercenary Corps, Yi Xuan finally made it to the second floor Human settlements.
Just now the guards on the city ran down from the wall and came to Captain Loken. Because they have already figured out the misunderstanding, Loken’s credibility has also been greatly improved. The captain of the guard looks like The human display bowed slightly to everyone, and then politely asked, "Welcome to Tristram."
Yi Xuan felt strange. Although his mercenary team was here to help them, the etiquette of the guards seemed a bit overwhelming. Normally playing games, even if they were to help out, there was no one to receive them. He settled down in the city by himself. Just go out to meet the enemy in war.
Obviously Loken had never received such a courtesy before, and he immediately returned the courtesy in a panic. Their mercenaries have always been informal, so they are a little rusty with these etiquettes.
"You're welcome, you're welcome, this is what we should do." Loken replied casually.
The guard straightened up and turned to face the townspeople and shouted: "Listen, these people are the Falcon Mercenary Corps. They are our friends. They just fought bloody battles for us outside the city and successfully killed them. A death knight!"
Hearing the guards shouting like this, a lot of townspeople suddenly appeared from nowhere. They gradually gathered around and surrounded them. When they heard the guards saying that they had killed the death knight, these townspeople’s eyes immediately Exuding a look of excitement, he cheered loudly.
Loken may be the first time he has received such a welcome, but he scratched his head in embarrassment, while the thief quietly took a step forward, smiling, as if he was the one who killed the death knight.
Yi Xuan doesn't care much about this. Although it feels good to be embraced by everyone, in his heart all this is just a game, and with these popular-faced townspeople, Yi Xuan is more concerned about those Tristram. For the famous NPC in China, the most urgent thing he needs to figure out is what kind of game he is currently in. To figure out these, he has to find more people or things to compare, and he also wants to see See if there are any great missions hidden in this small town.
You must know that in the original dark game, the protagonist of a generation can single-handedly smash into the ground and kill Diablo. Although it is a bit weird, in the fantasy world, in the fantasy world, the power gap is so huge. It does not conform to common sense.
So Yi Xuan thought, if this setting is still there, and the protagonist is still in Tristram, then there is such a character, and he doesn't need to worry about insufficient guarding power at all.
Compared with those NPCs who are not afraid of death, Yi Xuan is a person of flesh and blood. If the strength of the two sides is really disparity, he would have died before entering the big plot, and Yi Xuan would have died unjustly.
Therefore, Yi Xuan waved his hand to deal with the enthusiastic townspeople, while looking carefully in the crowd, looking at the past face by face, trying to find out if he could see one or two familiar faces, but Yi Xuan was disappointed. Yes, these people in front of me really seem to be extras, like the archers of the mercenary team. Not only are they similar in costumes, but they are also featureless in their facial expressions. People can't remember them even if they want to, let alone make him. I feel familiar, it seems that these are really just ordinary townspeople.
When Yi Xuan was disappointed, there was a commotion among the crowd. The townspeople who warmly welcomed them just now quieted down quickly and consciously separated from each other. Opposite them, a trembling bald old man separated. The crowd greeted us.
Yi Xuan couldn't help but brighten up, haha, he said that it's impossible to completely match the original version.
I saw this old man wearing a gray bachelor robe. The robe was old and dirty, and it looked like it hadn't been washed for a long time. There were a few gray-black oil stains on the front of the front, and the chest was covered with white beards, which looked so impressive I feel that this person has a wealth of experience and knowledge. Looking up again, I have a thin, old face with loose and dull skin. I don’t seem to know how long this person has lived. A long walking stick, with a thick ancient book in his other hand.
The old man walked to stand in front of the crowd, shaking his head in a nervous manner, and opened his mouth and said, "Welcome to Tristram." He spoke very loudly, using something that didn't match his body. The volume yelled loudly: "I have foreseen your arrival—travelers." Although the voice couldn't help but jittered, the loud voices were heard by everyone present.
Yi Xuan smiled, looking at the look of this old man, could it be Deca Kane? Although Diablo is a classic game, but because of Diablo's game style and tone, and as an earlier game, his picture effect is not very good, so although Yi Xuan has seen Deca Kane countless times , But I probably know that he is an old man with a white beard. I have seen it in a completely live-action version like the one in front of me, even if he has never thought about how he should look like.
But as a famous NPC throughout the 123rd generation of Diablo, Yi Xuan was familiar with Dika Kane, so when he saw the old man, his heart immediately matched the number. Dika Kane was in Diablo. He is the last sage of Horadim, so if the identity can be determined, Yi Xuan feels that he can definitely get some information about the world from him.
The thought in Yi Xuan's mind flashed, and the captain of the guard next to him introduced for both parties: "This is our temporary mayor, Dika Kane. He is also our wise man and sage here. I believe there is He is here, and he will definitely not neglect the warriors from far away."
The old man also smiled and said at this time: "Dika Kane, welcome everyone to Tristram."
Yi Xuan also smiled in his heart. If so, he would have to deal with each other well. Although it is an NPC, as such a game, Yi Xuan believes that the NPC here will definitely not just pop up a dialog box to let him choose that. At the low end, as long as you get along well, you will naturally get more useful information.
"It's getting late. Please take a rest first. We will discuss the defense against the dark camp tomorrow." As he said, the old man tilted his side slightly and led everyone to the town, probably because of the killing. The relationship between the death knights, everyone was very friendly to them along the way.
Although there are not many buildings in this small town, it is possible that many residents in this town have already fled because of the large-scale suppression of the dark camp, so there are quite a few empty houses. Soon a group of people found them under the leadership of the old man. Residents walked in a hurry to rest in the dwellings. It is estimated that they only took away some softness. Apart from being a little messy in the room, all the necessities for daily life are available. It is really easy to live with a bag and save a lot of troubles.
Yi Xuan chose a small but clean wooden house and settled down. This day, the sun rose in the morning and started to drive. After the fierce battle just now, Yi Xuan was really tired. I was thinking of finding old Dika to chat, but when my head touched the pillow, I felt a burst of exhaustion involuntarily. In addition, when I was fighting with the knight, my mental energy was exhausted, so I was very tired, Yi Xuanxin I'll talk about other things tomorrow. Now the sky is not as big as his sleep.
"Finally settled down." This was the last thought in Yi Xuan's mind. Although he could only stay for two or three days, it was still a defensive village. At least there was no need to worry about security issues, so Yi Xuan's spirit was relaxed. Got it down and fell asleep deeply.
This night was completely different from the previous night. Yi Xuan's body was covered with a warm blanket, and he was not worried about a monster coming, so he slept very well and didn't dream of a single one. He just felt like he only slept for a while. , But the sky is already bright.
A soft knock on the door rang out. Yi Xuan shook his head. He heard it, but his eyelids were heavy and unwilling to lift up.
Toughly, "Sir, are you awake?" A little girl's crisp voice thought outside the door.
Knowing that he couldn't sleep anymore, Yi Xuan managed to open his eyes, and the dazzling sunlight immediately entered his eyes. "Oh, it's dawn." Yi Xuan murmured, and stretched his waist greatly before he got up and opened the wooden door.
The cool air outside immediately came in to refresh Yi Xuan's spirits. I had a good rest last night. Today, my mind felt unusual. I saw a six or seven-year-old girl standing outside the door with big bright eyes. Look at him.
I don’t know how long there was a knock on the door. Yi Xuan opened the door and saw that the little girl was wearing a floral dress, black short hair, and a red bow tie on her head. She was looking at herself with a pair of big black eyes open, her eyes were clear, and her eyes could not be covered with a clever look.
"Sir, grandpa calls you to go to the pub for breakfast." Seeing Yi Xuan finally opened the door, the little girl immediately said to him loudly.
"What is your grandfather?" Yi Xuan wondered that when he first arrived in this small town, someone invited him to have breakfast.
"My grandfather is Mr. Mayor, Deca Kane"
"Dika Kane's granddaughter?" Yi Xuan couldn't help but feel excited, saying that this little girl is actually Leah!
Yi Xuan really didn’t think that besides Deca Cain, he would meet this little girl. Leah is Deca Cain’s adopted daughter, she only officially appeared in Diablo 3, don’t look at this little loli innocent. Xie, her true identity is the daughter of Diablo and Adria the Witch. There is pure demon blood flowing in her body, and it has become a medium for Diablo’s resurrection in later plots. She was still young, and she hadn't revealed the hidden power in her body yet.
Unexpectedly, I met another heavyweight person so soon. Yi Xuan took a look at her with great interest. Since she will also be a BOSS-level figure in the future, it is very important to have a good relationship with her, so Yi Xuan immediately lowered her body and was kind. Said to Leah, "Okay, uncle will be here soon. Could you please tell me where to eat?" He smiled while speaking, trying to maintain a amiable image.
Leah's attitude towards Yi Xuan obviously didn't buy it too much. She instinctively took a step back and said, "Just in front of the tavern." After shaking her head, she turned around and ran away, as if she was afraid of Yi Xuan. This strange squash eats its own tofu, which makes Yi Xuan feel boring.
But she is still just a loli, it doesn't matter, Yi Xuan thought I was so scary? While walking silently towards the tavern.
As he walked towards the tavern, Yi Xuan's head started to turn around. Since this Leah is still just a little loli, then in other words, the timeline of the dark world in this game should be between the second and third generations. At that time, although this world is obviously not only composed of the game background of Diablo, even if it is a mashup, he must have its rules in it, so it is definitely better to analyze the problems that he can figure out first. The overall form.
However, since it is a mashup, this timeline may not be reliable, so it seems that I will need to ask Deck Kane for confirmation later.
"Hey, hurry up, otherwise there will be nothing to eat." The thief quickly ran from behind Yi Xuan, seeing Yi Xuan in a daze, and jokingly pushed Yi Xuan as he walked past him. .
Yi Xuan came back to his senses at once, but he had already arrived at the entrance of the tavern. The door was open. At a glance, several people were already sitting inside. The four named NPCs of the Falcon Mercenary Group had all arrived. On yourself, Dika and his little granddaughter Leah, and yesterday’s captain of the guard were there. It seems that this breakfast can be regarded as a simple strategy meeting. Yi Xuan hurried in a few steps to find a place. Sat down.
After looking around, Yi Xuan found that none of the popular faces in the mercenary team were seen. It seems that apart from having no names, they don’t even need to eat. But it’s not surprising. What were the guards when playing games before? I've never seen anyone who eats.
Deckard Cain was talking about something with Loken. Seeing Yi Xuan coming over and nodding to him slightly, Loken turned his head to see Yi Xuan and waved his hand as a greeting.
"How? Traveler? Did you sleep well last night?" Dika greeted politely.
Yi Xuan nodded immediately: "Well, good, how about it? Those undead didn't attack anymore, right?"
Deckard Cain showed a dignified face, nodded and said: "For the time being, it is indeed not. We are also discussing this matter just now. Because of your heavy damage yesterday, it seems that the dark camp will not be able to deal with this in a short time. The town launched an offensive, but we still cannot relax our vigilance, and hope that you can continue to defend this Tristram until the arrival of reinforcements from the Knights of Dawn."
Hearing the old man's words, Loken immediately agreed in a loud voice: "Mayor, don't worry, this matter is covered by us, as long as our Falcon Mercenary Corps is there, those undead within three days Scum don't want to come in." What he said was awe-inspiring, and it didn't seem like he had taken the task of the dark camp at the same time.
Yi Xuan was amused, but he didn't understand jerky on his face, and suddenly thought: "By the way, besides the Knights of Dawn, are there no other forces of the light camp around here to ask for help?"
Yi Xuan asked this, but on the one hand he had no confidence in his mercenary group and the guards of this town, and on the other hand, he was also snooping for other information.
When Nadika Kane heard Yi Xuan's question, he suddenly showed a crying face, and shook his head tremblingly, "No more, since Camp Rogge fell, Tristram is the bright camp here. The land is the last stronghold. Once Tristram falls, the consequences will be unimaginable." The old man was already dying. This expression of sadness made Yi Xuan feel uncomfortable. Try to remind yourself that this is just a game, but don't be arrogant, none of them are real people, none of them are people.
Yi Xuan hypnotized himself in his heart without mentioning himself. Loken next to him asked carelessly, "I don't know why those undead are attacking this town. According to my observation, there is nothing in this town." Something of value." In his opinion, it is really unnecessary to waste manpower and material resources to attack this group of old and weak soldiers.
When the old man heard his words, the muscles on his face shook visibly, and there was a look of worry in his eyes. It seemed that Loken was on his mind, but he murmured: "It is true, I also want to It's unclear why they insist on attacking this city, maybe it's just because of the evil nature of the dark camp, they just want to destroy everything." Deca Kane said, but his worried eyes fell on the innocent Leah.
Yi Xuan saw all this in his eyes and moved in his heart, saying, Is it possible that they want this Leah? Combined with her life experience, this matter seems not difficult to understand.
At this moment, a rush of footsteps suddenly sounded outside the pub door: "My lord mayor, captain, it's not good, there are traces of undead outside the village." Following the shout, a militia rushed in in a panic. Gasping for breath, seems to be running in a hurry.
"Huh?" Dika was obviously taken aback. She immediately got up from her seat, shaking her hands and said, "I'll be here soon." As she walked out of the seat, grabbed the cane on the side, strode out and walked away. Two steps suddenly remembered that he was still entertaining guests, and hurriedly turned around and shouted to the tavern owner: "Zoe, entertain our guests, we need their help at this difficult time."
"I understand Lord Mayor." The owner of the tavern standing inside the bar hurriedly responded.
The captain of the guard nodded at them as a greeting and hurriedly followed Decakane away. The tavern owner immediately walked out of the bar, with a worried look on his face, and asked them absently, "How many would you like to eat?"
In fact, this sentence should have been said by Loken and the others. Because of the siege of the undead, the supplies in the town are obviously very scarce, and the food on the menu is pitiful, so now it is not to see what they want to eat, but to ask the boss What can you eat.
A few people looked at it. There was only hard brown bread in the tavern, and the owner’s secret cabbage stew. Although it looked like pig food, it smelled okay. There were also some grilled sausages, cheese, and beer.
Since their background is set in medieval Europe, food is naturally the same. Yi Xuan is very curious about the food in this world. I have read many novels and said that European food in this period is very difficult to swallow. This time it is okay. See it.
Therefore, Yi Xuan decided to try a little bit of everything. He ordered a piece of brown bread, a piece of grilled sausage, and a bowl of cabbage stew. The things were all ready-made, and they were served quickly. Yi Xuan first took a bite of the bread. Damn, the bread that needs to be cut with a saw is really hard enough. Although I can't say chrome teeth, but the first time I bite it to nowhere, Yi Xuan still feels that the gums are very painful. After chewing a few times, the wheat is fragrant, although some Wheat husk, but it can be treated as a whole grain cake, but it helps digestion.
Nodded, Yi Xuan was quite satisfied with the brown bread, and took another bite of the sausage. It was genuine. It was full of lean meat, but it smelled like charcoal fire. Almost all the cabbage stew is simmery, the cabbage has turned into a vegetable paste, and the European seasoning is completely different from the Chinese. It not only has a pungent and irritating taste, but it is also very sour, but it is hot. Drink it warm in the stomach.
It seemed that the food was acceptable, which made Yi Xuan's heart relieved a lot. The day before yesterday, he drank a bottle of supplemental medicine. Yi Xuan's stomach was empty, so Xili snored and started eating.
The mercenary team is full of big bosses, and they are quite embarrassed when they eat, but no one laughs at anyone. After eating, the boss comes to collect the dishes and settle the bill. Originally, Yi Xuan thought that this meal should be the mayor’s invitation, but he saw The other mercenaries didn't take it seriously, they paid the money immediately, and they were too embarrassed to mention it. It seems that these foreigners don't seem to attach much importance to such things as in the celestial dynasty.
"I really don't understand the world." Yi Xuan said, and had to fetch money from his pocket. The food he eats requires seven copper coins. Qian Yixuan can still afford it. While counting the money, he thought about it in his heart. It seems that the prices in this world are still very cheap. He found four copper coins in the box the day before yesterday. Yesterday, I got more than a dozen zombies from zombies, which is still very profitable.
After paying the bill, Yi Xuan also inquired about the currency ratio of the world.
The tavern owner, as a businessman, couldn’t be bothered to answer this question, so he immediately explained to Yi Xuan one by one with his fingers. It turns out that there are three currencies in this world, gold coins, silver coins and copper coins, of which copper coins are the cheapest, 100. A copper coin can be exchanged for a silver coin, and 100 silver coins can be exchanged for a gold coin.
Yi Xuan immediately took out one of the five gold coins left after playing in the game hall, which were actually the gold coins of this world.
Only then did Yi Xuan understand why there are so many gold coins to buy cards on the second floor. As long as you have patience and strength, you can use mobs to accumulate gold coins, but so far he is still at a loss as to how to contact the merchant.
