The mayor and the captain of the guard did not come back until a few people had eaten the food. The old man's face was deeply worried. Although the captain was straight, he couldn't see half a smile on his face.
"How? Are you okay?" Loken asked loudly while picking his teeth.
The old mayor managed to squeeze a smile: "Yes, although there are a few zombies wandering outside the city, they are not a threat for the time being."
"Then don't worry about frowning." Loken stood up and patted the mayor's shoulder. He walked out with a full hiccup. Several of his men immediately stood up and followed out. Yi Xuan finally One stood up and turned around and took a look when he went out. The mayor Dika and the captain of the guard were frowning and discussing in a low voice. It seemed that they were more worried about the situation in front of them than these mercenaries.
In any case, for the next two days, there were still zombies gathering around the town, but these zombies looked like headless flies, just wandering around the town, and did not take any offensive methods. The mayor and the captain of the guard were concerned about this. The situation seemed very tense. The guards and shifts guarding the city were increased, but because of fear that the opponent would lie in ambush outside the city, he finally did not dare to leave the city to kill monsters.
In this case, the members of the mercenary group would have no use for them. They wandered around the town every day, and Yi Xuan was also happy. Taking advantage of this time to start collecting all kinds of information, first of all, Yi Xuan would The whole town turned around, trying to find one or two familiar NPCs, but it was in vain. Except for some old, weak, sick and disabled people in the town, most people have already evacuated, even if there is a famous NPC Yi Xuan couldn't find a trace.
Not only the townspeople, but Yi Xuan found that some shops and NPCs in the blacksmith shops were also missing. It seems that the town has not been able to function normally. If the Light Knights are not available after three days, even if the people of the dark camp do not attack the city, the city The people here won't live long.
After visiting the town, Yi Xuan, who had found nothing, began to develop only a few resources, and had a good relationship with a few members of the Falcon Mercenary Corps. These guys lived a life of licking blood, so they were better than martial arts, since Yi Xuan Xuan was the'hero who killed the death knight.' They naturally showed respect to Yi Xuan. After a day or two, did Yi Xuan learn a lot of information about the world from their mouths, but this information They are all scattered, and they are basically analyzed through the previous mission process that they brag about when they talk about the mountains, so they are not very systematic, and the knowledge of these mercenaries is also limited. It sounds like their activity maps are not. It's huge, so if you want to know more, you may have to learn from other channels in the future.
Based on the available information, Yi Xuan can first be sure that this world is neither the World of Warcraft nor the world of Diablo. According to the events, characters, and locations where the events occurred, Yi Xuan has already thought of several different things. It's a game, but for the time being, it seems that their share is not too big.
Therefore, it seems that this should be a world reorganized by various games, which is in line with the personality of the death arcade hall. The game consoles on the first floor are of all types, from simple shooting, practical to racing, and complex to computer games. It’s almost all-encompassing. Although Yi Xuan’s strategy has always been relatively single, but he is immersed in it every day and knows a little about other games. Therefore, he guessed that this second floor should be a collection of various computer games. As for other game elements, in the future It is estimated that I will encounter more and more.
Since this game cannot be treated as a game, some game knowledge that Yi Xuan remembered before is not necessarily clear here, so Yi Xuan feels that it is better not to be too preconceived.
However, although there are many game elements, the division of gangs in this world is very simple. Yi Xuan has learned before, one is the righteous camp representing justice, and the corresponding is the dark camp. They each have many heroes in different games. Characters, these mercenaries don't know much, but the Baron Rivendell that Yi Xuan met before is a big boss in this place.
The two camps are not only different in name, but the relationship between them is simply incompatible. Although the light camp thinks that the people of the dark camp are evil, the dark camp also condemns the people of the light camp of hypocrisy. Because the concepts are contradictory and the attributes are mutually restrained, the two sides have been fighting each other all year round. This is similar to the battle between the World of Warcraft Alliance and the Horde, except that the darkness and light here are more obvious.
The neutral camp is the product of these two camps after years of fighting. Most of the people in these neutral camps are civilians or people who do not have such extreme beliefs. They admire freedom, but then some speculators have appeared, such as The team of Falcon mercenaries followed by Yi Xuan took on some small and no small missions from the two factions to earn rewards. Because there are no gangs and beliefs, it is not helpful for them whether it is light or dark. Any moral burden can be mentioned.
In this way, the neutral camp has slowly grown and become the third force in the world, but the neutral camp is sandwiched between the two, and its strength is relatively weak.
As the main contradiction in this world, light and darkness have an ambiguous attitude towards the neutral camp, and because of the balance, neither the light camp nor the dark camp dare to push the neutral camp to the opposite side, so although the neutral camp is The strength is not strong, and it has not formed a scale, but it can still maintain independence.
But it's just being independent, because the people in the neutral camp do not have unified leadership and are in their own hands. Therefore, it is a bit difficult to develop their own territorial strength like the bright and dark camps. After learning this information, Yi Xuan made his own choice. I also gradually regretted it. It seems that this so-called neutral camp actually means going it alone. Although I joined a so-called mercenary group, Yi Xuan has already understood it after a few days of getting along. These people basically He didn't have much strength, but he was just relying on his cleverness to make ends meet, and he knew that he should have taken two tasks in time.
While chatting with the members of the mercenary group, Yi Xuan also seized every opportunity to create opportunities to contact Deckard Cain. As a famous NPC and the only sage here, he should know more information than mercenaries. There are a lot more people in the team, right
It’s a pity that this Deckard Kane is polite to him, but this politeness is only maintained in the basic etiquette, and most of it is because of the relationship with the mercenary team now, but behind the courtesy is strictly guarded. Be cautious, if Yi Xuan and him have been engaged for two days, the old man didn’t say a word about the superfluous things. Obviously because of the faction, the old man didn’t trust Yi Xuan very much, which made Yi Xuan feel more frustrated. , I thought that if I had chosen the bright camp, my treatment would be completely different.
Yi Xuan was busy, unknowingly, two days have passed. Their task is to guard the city for three days. Now it seems that there is one more day to complete the task so easily and happily, but Yi Xuan's heart is not too relaxed. , Because he knew it was probably the tranquility before the storm.
Although Tristram strengthened the guards, and these guards looked very nervous, the two days outside the city have been calm, but the number of undead outside the city is getting more and more together. There are three or two kittens at the beginning. , Gradually developed to hundreds of.
When Yi Xuan was okay, he went up to the city wall and looked at it, and found that basically some low-level undead appeared, such as skeletons and zombies, dangling aimlessly outside the city.
Speaking of which, I must thank Yi Xuan for killing the death knight before entering the city. Without the leadership of senior figures, these undead didn't know to launch an attack, so that the town was safe at least for the time being.
However, the number is so large that it has become a hidden danger invisibly. Yi Xuan thinks that people in the dark camp should not be so easy to give up. More fierce battles are likely to start in these two days, and if you want to mobilize these undead, It is estimated that the other party will send other leaders over, is it another death knight? Or should Rivendell come in person
"Don't worry, these things can't make any waves." Loken's thick voice suddenly sounded behind Yi Xuan, frightening Yi Xuan, because Yi Xuan paid attention to the zombies below, but Yi Xuan did not find anyone here. Behind himself.
Looking back, Loken squinted his eyes with interest in a large number of zombies under the city. This is rare. In the past two days, the seven or eight popular-faced NPCs assigned by the guards of the city in the mercenary team, he With Loken and Rogge, they didn’t have the task of defending the city at all. These two days were basically in the state of eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating. I don’t know why I was so active today and came up to the city wall. Is it conscience? Find
Although Loken said that the undead below were not to be feared, the residents of the city didn't seem to think so. The atmosphere in the entire small city became more and more depressing, and the residents of the city were full of sad faces.
Not only these residents, but Yi Xuan instinctively began to feel the danger approaching, because this world is different from the world he lives in, and everything he lives in has unlimited possibilities. Take the current siege, he may Happens, and may also change due to the influence of some things.
But here is the game world. Everything happens and develops according to certain rules. Since the task they are receiving now says to let them defend for three days, it is impossible for them to spend this time without incident. In three days, although Yi Xuan had killed the death knight by mistake, the people in the dark camp would definitely adopt other methods.
And generally speaking, defensive tasks similar to the current situation in the game cannot be smooth sailing. Although everything has been calm for the past two days, the enemy is likely to launch a powerful attack at the last minute, and even if the dark camp no longer attacks, three days later Whether to turn his face with Tristram is also a question. He is still a little uneasy about Loken. Although it looks like a big five and three rough, but the occasional clever tricks still left a deep impression on Yi Xuan. Therefore, he has always been uneasy about the opponent, especially Loken’s expression on the city wall today. It seems that he is not worried about the siege at all, and even has a certain meaning. With his understanding of Loken’s strength, the opponent should It is impossible to have such confidence.
As the sun rose to the sky on the third day, Yi Xuan's heart became more tense. It depends on how things develop today.
It was still calm during the day, and the sky slowly darkened. After a few more hours, even if the three-day mission of defending the city was over, Yi Xuan let go of his heart for a day and came to the only tavern in the town.
After arriving at the tavern, I found that a group of people from the Falcon Mercenary Group were already here. Seeing Yi Xuan coming in, Loken smiled and greeted him: "Hey, I came here so late. Aren't you afraid of not having dinner? "
The time of talking, the dinner has been served, and everyone is different in front of him. Loken's eyes are a huge pot with pork legs sticking out, and the pot is thick broth.
"Guys, today is the last day. The task is about to be completed. Let's eat hard. I'm afraid there will be something to do tomorrow." Loken said as he reached out and grabbed the pig's leg, he gnawed at him. Suddenly, his face was covered with lard.
The archer Salmiya wanted more than Sven, and cut a piece of pork from the basin in front of him with a knife and put it on his plate. He twitched his red nose and asked, "Boss, what do you mean?"
Loken chewed the meat in his mouth, leaned over, and said in a low voice: "Once the task is handed over tomorrow, even if our employment relationship with the bright camp is completed, we can continue with other tasks..." said Loken blinked at everyone present.
Yi Xuan's heart trembled. The thing he was worried about was about to come. Yi Xuan didn't take food from the basin, but asked with some worry: "Other tasks? Does it mean Tristram's Destroy that mission?"
"But there are a lot of people in the city. We are only a dozen people. Can we do it?" The archer heard this conversation and immediately became nervous. He was afraid to fight against the undead, but in turn, fighting against these guards was equally horrible. Worry.
Yi Xuan nodded immediately, obviously agreeing with the archer's opinion.
However, Loken said indifferently, "Hey, don’t worry about this. You have seen those militiamen. They are all recruits. They have no combat effectiveness. And even if there are other accidents, they are not afraid, because we have others. Help.” When he said this, Loken took a bite of his pig's leg, looking proud and inexplicable.
"Other help? What is that?" Yi Xuan frowned. Loken's concession made him a little bored. Although it was a game, where interests were paramount, Loken's naked speculative behavior still made him a little bit disgusted.
"Rogge, it's up to you." Loken greeted the little thief, and started to nibble on his pig legs intently.
Yi Xuan immediately turned his gaze on Rogge. Loken mentioned it, but he remembered it. In the past two days, he didn't seem to have seen this little thief at all. Originally, Yi Xuan thought he was going to take part in the defense mission. Now, it seems that he didn't know what he had conspired with Loken.
Na Roger was more cautious than Loken, and he didn't dare to speak loudly. He looked around in a mysterious manner and made sure that the tavern owner was preparing a meal in the back. Then he whispered to the people on the opposite side: "I went out of town quietly yesterday. "
"Out of the city?" Yi Xuanqi said, Xin said that the guards were tightly guarded. Although it was mainly aimed at the undead outside, it was not easy to get out without knowing it.
When the thief saw Yi Xuan's strange appearance, he was a little proud of him, and said with a smile, "It's not difficult for me to get out of town." At this time, Yi Xuan also felt in his heart. Since he is a thief, this guy must have sneaked. The ability of the class.
Therefore, Yi Xuan stopped speaking and continued to listen to the thieves: "Outside the city, I met a necromancer. He was sent by the Council of the Dead to replace Tristram’s destruction plan. According to him, the zombies outside the city There are already more than two hundred. As long as he gives an order, these undead will immediately become a state of rampage. As long as we can find the opportunity to open the city gate tomorrow, then the undead army will swarm in and bring the whole Tristra Destroyed."
