Chapter 394: Bronze City

Views:

"Yang Kai is over." Walking on the hard and cold wasteland, the cold wind blowing on his face seemed like a knife shaved his face, but Yi Xuan couldn't feel it at all. There was only that sentence in his mind. Yang Kai was over. Kesa's answer, Yi Xuan didn't even have the courage to stay on the battlefield anymore. He fled after returning to the tent alone. He couldn't imagine whether he would lose control when he saw Yang Kai again, and he didn't dare to try.

He did not expect that a simple appointment would have caused Yang Kai to lose his consciousness from now on. Yi Xuan clearly realized that as long as the system is willing, all things are not under his control. Zhao Beifeng’s blackening cannot be prevented by himself. Yang Kai had no way of losing his memory, and the only thing he could do now was to find a way to escape this fate.

This incident also further reminded Yi Xuan, reminding him that time is running out.

Although there are still six months before the one-year deadline, Yi Xuan understands that not only the test itself is a crisis for him, but the six months itself is also a threat. Maybe when the system will Find someone to throw yourself into an arena full of greedy adventurers. Like Yang Kai, you will eventually lose yourself in battle and fight. If the system really does that, might you say no? After various previous experiences, Yi Xuan knows that the system cannot be violated. Not only can he not defy, even as the God of Shadow, he also cannot change the slightest. The full body's ability disappears if it disappears, and it is restricted if it is restricted. Restriction, what can you fight with the system

It seems that I must speed up! Yi Xuan made up his mind.

From Rexxar’s mouth, Yi Xuan learned that Mary led the Knights of Light to join the Empire’s team, but because the camp was too large, Mary’s stationed place was far from Yang Kai’s big tent, although Rexxar gave His own tightness is a general direction, but Yi Xuan quickly found the camp of the Holy Light Knights based on the induction between himself and the Holy Light Knights and Mary.

Because of its special nature, the Knights of Light is a relatively independent space. Among the dozens of tents are surrounded by the belongings and camp cars that Yi Xuan had purchased. This matter has been supported. The beasts outside the tents are used to keep out the cold. The skin is already on top. Even in the middle of the night, even through the thick camp, Yi Xuan can see the warm firelight inside. It seems that Mary is leisurely warming up inside.

When Yi Xuan came to the entrance of the camp, the two elite guards immediately spotted him. They stepped forward, stretched out their hands together, put their right hand on their chest to Yi Xuan, bowed and bowed, even though they were just one without self. Conscious NPC, but because of their special relationship, Yi Xuan still feels very kind at this moment. In this game, it seems that only when you are with these knights, you will feel at home at ease.

Without their notification, Yi Xuan stepped in. As soon as he entered the room, he saw the girl lying in a daze by the campfire, her big eyes reflected the beating fire, and she wondered what she was thinking.

"Who?" The cold wind coming in from the door of the tent made her suddenly regain her senses. She stared at the door suddenly. The next second, her face immediately became happy, and one of them tensed up: "You are back."

Yi Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Mary was the same Mary before. Mary took Yi Xuan's hand and sat by the fire, asking strangely, "Why is your face so strange?"

"Oh, nothing, it's nice to see you." Yi Xuan said with emotion, a trace of melancholy was involuntarily brought out on his face, his heart still couldn't lift the energy for the radical change of Yang Kai.

Marie stared at Yi Xuan's face carefully. She and Yi Xuan had the same mind. Although Yi Xuan's matter could be hidden, she could still feel a little bit of it. She was as smart as Mary immediately understood what had happened, and said indifferently: " Have you seen Yang Kai?"

Yi Xuan did not speak, and the two of them sat quietly by the fire. They were all silent. During the conquest of the Tower of Darkness, Mary and Yang Kai got along together all day long. To be honest, the relationship is not shallow, presumably Yang Kai is here now. It seems that Mary's psychology should be very sad. Yi Xuan is like finding some words to persuade Mary, but before he can think of what he wants to say, he feels a soft warmth on his shoulders, Mary's. The little hand patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "Forget it, I want to start a little bit. In fact, this is a good thing for him. It is a good thing for him to fully integrate into this world and accept his identity here, which will make him live more calmly."

Yi Xuan's heart moved. If this was said from Lexar or other NPCs in this game, perhaps he would not feel surprised, but Mary, she didn’t know that she and Yang Kai belonged to another world. Why? What would she say? Is it just to comfort yourself? Yi Xuan's mind immediately recalled the weird expression on her face when she discussed the two worlds with Mary before. Could it be that Mary actually knew the nature of the world

This is not surprising. Yi Xuan had thought before, whether there are countless or only one Mary, and if there is only one, is Mary summoned by herself, in fact, has been summoned by others before? Through previous conversations with Mary, Yi Xuan has long discovered that Mary has her own consciousness, and she does not find it difficult to accept that she is a summoning hero, and it was even Mary who provided clues to herself that she wanted to make herself more specific. In this way, it seems that Mary knows far more things than herself. Yi Xuan's mind quickly turned these thoughts, and suddenly raised her head and said indifferently: "But for Yang Kai, it shouldn't be a return to the real world. Is it the best home?"

Mary’s gaze was fixed in the distance, not paying attention to Yi Xuan’s gaze, but faintly said: “Your world, my world, this world, what’s the difference? For this matter at this moment, it’s not all. It's the real world, why care so much." She seemed to be talking about Yang Kai, but Yi Xuan sounded like she was trying to persuade herself.

"Do you know that?" Yi Xuan stood up abruptly and came to Mary in two steps. There was a trace of anger, a trace of surprise, and a trace of unwillingness to believe on his face. He didn't expect Mary to know from the beginning. The nature of these worlds has been affirmed by Yi Xuan from what she said just now, but he didn't want to believe that Mary, whom he believed most, would deceive him, so he asked excitedly.

Mary looked into his eyes suspiciously. After a long time, she suddenly sighed, "So you know it too."

"So you really know, why didn't you tell me? Why did you keep it from me for so long?" Yi Xuan suddenly grabbed Mary by the shoulders, to this weird girl, Yi Xuan has always petted her like a sister, but Unexpectedly, she concealed such a big secret from herself.

"You know now. Are you happy? I told you what is good for you. If you lose hope, you will eventually become like Yang Kai and become a walking dead. Instead of doing this, I would rather you with the hope of being able to go back. , And go through this last time happily.” Mary said finally, with a sigh in her voice, Yi Xuan's heart suddenly tightened, and he knew that Mary had not lied to himself.

"You are the first master to treat me as a friend." Mary continued to mutter: "The first person who realized me was not just for me to serve you."

Master, this is the first time Mary talked about this word to Yi Xuan. Yi Xuan looked at Mary blankly. Yes, she was her master. Yi Xuan has always ignored this issue. He has always regarded Mary as an equal. People came to treat her, but forgot that she still had a master's responsibility to her.

The two calmed down for a while, and sat quietly beside the stove again, "How? Do you have any plans next?" Mary took the lead to break the silence. Since Yi Xuan already knows the truth, I don't know what he is. How to plan.

Yi Xuan nodded: "I already have a plan. If this plan succeeds, I..." Yi Xuan wanted to say that he could enter the real world, but Yi Xuan thought of the dangers mentioned by the businessman, and finally swallowed his words. After going back, the less people know about this, the better, so Yi Xuan changed his words: "If the plan is successful, I should be able to pass the trial and return to the real world."

"You..." What Mary wanted to say was immediately stopped by Yi Xuan's gesture.

"Tell me about your plan, do you want to stay here? I may not be able to protect you when the big trial comes, or do you have other plans? I will try my best to help you realize it." Xuan said these words sincerely, even if Mary is like upgrading the template now, he will lose the reward points to help her.

Mary nodded, as if she had already thought about this issue, she just thought about it for a moment, raised her head and said to Yi Xuan: "Please lift my reincarnation."

"Remove the realization?" Yi Xuan did not expect this strange request, and he couldn't recover for a while.

"Yes, turn me into a card again, return to the merchant's hand, and let him sell me in the original world, so that I can still be my summoned hero, although the free time is less, I will not be Obliterate." Mary said with a smile on her face, and she could see that she did have these thoughts after careful consideration.

Yi Xuan nodded. This is undoubtedly the best result for Mary. As for the members of the Knights outside, they will be wise to ask for more blessings in the future. Yi Xuan has given them free will, and this is the reason. Mary's hand came to the NPC mall.

The removal of reincarnation is the same as the realization of reinstatement. Reward points are required. However, this thousand reward points have no meaning for Yi Xuan. Yi Xuan took Mary’s card and turned twice. They arrived at the place agreed with the businessman, because the businessman agreed to find the man in black for him, so the two had already agreed to meet today.

"What's the matter?" Yi Xuan complained in a low voice. Although this businessman was a bit dark, he was never late. What happened today? Yi Xuan looked left and right for a while, and suddenly felt a sinking shoulder. He didn't know who patted himself behind his back.

Yi Xuan's head buzzed, and with a wave of his hand, he grabbed the opponent's wrist, pulled it forward, and twisted it to make a big move.

"Don't don't, it's me, it's me." The businessman's unique mask and slightly cunning voice made Yi Xuan come back to his senses. Pushing away, he complained: "Who made you appear behind me silently."

"Isn't I playing with you?" The businessman moved his painful arm. Although Yi Xuan's current template is very high, the businessman is also a big snake, and it is not difficult to appear quietly.

"Why are you so late? I thought you had an accident." Yi Xuan said angrily.

"Of course it was a delay in finding someone for you." The businessman said, looking around, and Yi Xuan got impatient. In fact, except for occasional NPCs coming in to buy things in this NPC mall, most of the time it is on the street. All are empty, and there is nothing to worry about.

However, the businessman seemed to be extra cautious today. After confirming that no one was around, he quietly put his mouth in Yi Xuan's ear and said, "I found the position of the projector."

"Say it quickly." Yi Xuan said anxiously.

"He recently settled in the Bronze City, and he brushed the flame nucleus in the lava pool. If you go to the Bronze City and look for it carefully, you should be able to find him. If I guess it is correct, he should be around the tavern." The merchant said and recovered. With a normal stance, it seems that his caution is mainly aimed at the intelligence itself, maybe betraying the hacker itself is a risky thing.

Yi Xuan nodded against the businessman, motioning to hear clearly. Bronze City! Yi Xuan had heard of this place. The city was built on a volcano. Due to its rich geothermal resources, it has an extremely developed metallurgical industry. Many advanced forging recipes have to be learned there, and he is also very rich in mineral resources. If the Alliance’s weapon forging sacred land is the city of dwarves, then the empire’s weapon sacred land is undoubtedly this bronze city. Yi Xuan often talked about it when listening to players chatting, knowing that although the city is not very big, it is not difficult to find.

Yi Xuan opened his mouth to say something, but the businessman suddenly made a silent gesture: "Just hear it, don't repeat it, be careful." When you saw him, don’t say that it was the news I gave you. I have never sinned against anyone in this world for so long, and I don’t want to be retaliated against for this matter. Do you understand?" The businessman said The mask on his face did not show the expression, but his tone seemed very casual. It seemed that he didn't really care about the hacker's revenge. He told Yi Xuan this way just in case.

Yi Xuan nodded: "Understood, I will definitely not leak you out. There is one more thing that needs your help." Yi Xuan said and passed the card in his hand.

Yi Xuan has always bought cards from the merchant. This is the first time that he offered the card. The merchant took a strange look and said, "Mary Summoning Card, what do you mean?"

"I want you to take this card..." Originally, Yi Xuan didn't know how to tell the merchant. If he sells it, it would seem too weird. After all, the value of a summoning card is meaningless to him. , The merchant would not believe what he said on behalf of the seller, and if Che let the merchant sell, Yi Xuan was very afraid that Mary would become the summoning unit of other NPCs on the second floor, so he paused in the middle of his words. For a moment, immediately after a flash of lightning in his mind, Yi Xuan suddenly had an idea, and immediately said, "Give this card to Vera. It is the woman who teamed up with me back then. This is what I owe him. ."

"That's it..." The businessman looked at the card strangely, then at Yi Xuan, and finally reached out and took the card over and said, "No problem, I don't care about the grievances between you, but it's okay to pass things on."

Yi Xuan smiled lightly, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and the next step was to race against time to complete his plan. Yi Xuan bid farewell to the merchant, and couldn’t wait to arrive at the teleportation hall of the NPC mall. The clerk seemed to have been used to seeing Yi Xuan’s face in the past two days, greeted her familiarly, asked about the transmission location, and used the teleport function. After spending 1,000 reward points, Yi Xuan was directly teleported to Bronze City.

Bronze City Yi Xuan was the first time to come. I didn't expect the air quality of this so-called holy place to be so poor. Yi Xuan was immediately choked with a cough in the transmission range.

Looking up to the sky, it was gray as if the sky was floating with dust, but when I took a closer look, it was fluttering volcanic ash. The air was filled with a smell of sulfur and charred, and the sky was almost covered by volcanic ash and smoke. , Even during the day, it is dim as if it is evening. This weird air made Yi Xuan think of Silent Hill, but fortunately, there were still a lot of players coming and going around, which made this weird and terrifying atmosphere less depressing.

Yi Xuan opened the map and looked at it. The area of the Bronze City is not very large. There are many red-named monsters walking around. However, the city is a safe area and there are no signs of monsters. The tavern is just two blocks away from him. place.

Yi Xuan's dress at this time has returned to the dress of an unknown traveler, and he is not afraid that someone will recognize him. With the rod of the dark great sage, Yi Xuan walks forward leisurely and cautiously. Observing the people around.

There are two kinds of players here, one is well-equipped, and at first glance, there are a large number of experienced high-level players. It is estimated that they are all looking for magic weapons, but there are also many very low-level ones, which are obviously specializing in life skills. Most of the players here are to find weapons refining methods, or to find someone to learn from a teacher.

Yi Xuan didn’t find the man in black, but he was not in a hurry. He didn’t expect to see him right away, but as long as he had a direction, he would be lurking and wasting a week or two. It's also worth it to sit back and wait. Yi Xuan thought in his heart, he had come to the door of the tavern unknowingly.

Yi Xuan raised his head and glanced at the signboard of the tavern. Unlike the various names on the outside, the sign of the tavern had no other name besides the word tavern. It seemed that the owner was also a pragmatic person.

Yi Xuan pretended to be casual, but was actually observing the surrounding movement. This tavern seemed to be an information distribution center. There were a lot of players and NPCs coming and going. If the man in black is in this city, this tavern should be said to be him. A place to be.

In front of the tavern, there are people coming and going, and adventurers in different clothes are very busy going in and out. Suddenly, Yi Xuan noticed a black figure squeezing around in the crowd. His movements were very fast. He moved quickly in such a flow of people, slipping without leaving his hands like a loach.

Yi Xuan recognized him almost instantly. The man in black was him. Although he changed his costume, his figure, the characteristics of his body movements when he was in action, and his ordinary but slightly vicissitudes of life Maung Yixuan is unforgettable. This is because the image of the projector in the game is completely determined by the subconscious mind. Unlike players who use modifiers to modify, the projector has no template attributes, so it basically maintains reality. The way it looks in, there won't be much change.

Yi Xuan didn't expect his actions to go so smoothly that his originally calm heart suddenly agitated. It seemed calm on the surface, but his heart touched as if it was about to jump out. This excitement was so strong that it even surpassed the moment he and Zhao Beifeng fought and discovered the truth of this world.

Because this will be his chance to return to reality, a chance for him to detach from the illusion and return to the reality, he couldn't help but not be moved.
