After ten rounds of competition, the list of the four qualifying teams in Baiyu City also emerged. Desert Guyan became the biggest winner, occupying two qualifying places, and the results were outstanding, triggering another round of discussion on the forum.
Among the other seven major cities, the traditional strong guilds were not attacked by dark horses, and all were shortlisted for the finals. However, no guild was as awesome as Desert Guyan, and two teams could go to Shanghai to participate in the finals.
There was joy in the lonely smoke in the desert. Although only 10 people could go to Shanghai, this honor belonged to every member of the guild!
The morning after the regional competition ended, Zhang Yang received a call from the Sword Pointing to the Sky organizing committee, telling him that he must arrive at the Jinyuan Hotel in Shanghai City before the 20th of this month to sign up and pay for travel expenses and hotel check-in. All normal consumption after the event will be reimbursed by the organizing committee.
If the contestants are willing, they can just pack their bags and check into the Jinyuan Hotel today. The organizing committee has a lot of money and doesn’t care about letting you have food and accommodation for a few more days... In short, there is only one premise, and you must not miss the opening day of the competition!
Because on December 20, the organizing committee will hold the opening ceremony of the Sword Pointing to the Sky Underground Competition in the hotel, and the captains of the 32 participating teams will draw lots to determine the groups.
Zhang Yang put on the gaming helmet and just went online, and was immediately bombarded by the little girl, saying: "Anemic warrior, hurry up, let's go to Shanghai in the afternoon!"
"...free food and accommodation?"
"clever!"
Zhang Yang thought about it, as long as he has a gaming helmet, he can play games online anywhere, no matter if it is a hotel or at home! He nodded and said: "Then go and inform Narcissus and Baifa, we will just come out to get together!"
After notifying everyone one by one, everyone agreed to leave early and then go to Shanghai to gather for a few days.
However, because we are all in different cities, if you are far away you need to book air tickets, while if you are nearby you just need to drive a car. For example, Zhousu City, where Zhang Yang and the others are located, is only over 80 kilometers away from Shanghai, and can be reached in half an hour on the expressway.
Among the ten people, Zhang Yang, Fatty Han, Wei Yan'er, Han Yingxue, and Sun Xinyu were all in Zhousu. Except for Sun Xinyu, who asked for leave because she had to go to work on the 20th, the other four people met at the highway intersection that afternoon.
Fatty Han drove Zhang Yang, while Han Yingxue drove Wei Yan'er. The four of them drove towards Shanghai City in two sports cars.
"Yangzi, it's time for you to buy a car!" Fatty Han said to Zhang Yang while driving.
Zhang Yang smiled and said: "I bought a car, and you can drive the two cars interchangeably. Is it better to make a fortune?"
"Haha, Yangzi is the one who knows me!" Fatty Han burst into laughter.
Fortunately, with Fatty Han guiding them from the front, Han Yingxue, a natural road addict, finally did not drive in the wrong direction. Half an hour later, they entered the city of Shanghai and arrived at the Jinyuan Hotel under the guidance of GPS.
After parking the car, Zhang Yang made a phone call. The competition organizing committee immediately sent a receptionist to check them in. There were two rooms for four people. Of course, it couldn't be a luxurious room like the Presidential Suite, but for one night 888 yuan is not bad at all.
As soon as they settled in, Wei Yan'er knocked on the door. The little girl covered her stomach and said, "Anemic warrior, wretched fat man, let's go eat!"
Zhang Yang's head was full of black lines and he said, "Is it possible that you didn't eat at noon and came here to have a big meal in order to save your stomach?"
"Hehe!" Wei Yan'er smiled and said, "It's not that exaggerated. I just ate a little less!"
"Tsk, tsk, sister Yan'er, you've become more beautiful in a few months!" Fatty Han looked at the flower-like little girl with a smile.
"You fat man, don't look at Yan'er with lustful eyes!" Han Yingxue also appeared at the door and shouted at Fatty Han.
Fatty Han glanced at Han Yingxue inadvertently, and his expression immediately froze, as if he had been kicked in the butt. He jumped up suddenly, with an expression of disbelief, pointed at Han Yingxue and said: "You, you ,Are you good Xue'er?"
Zhang Yang couldn't help but smile. The Snow Demon Girl deliberately made the disaster-level appearance very ordinary in the game. No one can even think of connecting her with her appearance in the game! When she came out of the parking lot earlier, Han Yingxue was wearing sunglasses and a scarf, so Fatty Han finally saw her true face!
Fatty Han turned his head to look at Zhang Yang and said, "Yangzi, is she really the good Xue'er?"
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "It's guaranteed to be replaced if it's fake!".
"Hiss!" Fatty Han took a breath and cried out sadly, "Yangzi, Fat Brother is jealous of you! I think Fat Brother is a talented person, more beautiful than Pan An, Yan Sai Song Yu, why can't he meet such a beauty! "
"Come on, come on! Let's go eat!"
Wei Yan'er and Han Yingxue were very enthusiastic about having a free meal. Even though they were both women, their appetites were really big, which made Zhang Yang wonder if the sisters knew yesterday that they could eat for free, and they started to tighten up at that time. The belt is saved for today to break out.
They use the accounting method and calculate the money together when they check out. Of course, it will be the organizing committee of the conference that will foot the bill then.
After drinking and eating, the four of them returned to their respective rooms, took out their gaming helmets, put them on, and logged in to the game.
Zhang Yang set out from Thunderstorm Castle, brought enough supplies, and arrived at the Kaloga Mountains. He had completed all the tasks on several nearby maps these days, so he had to go further afield to find new tasks to do.
The upgrade speed of completing tasks will not be faster than simply defeating monsters. On the contrary, because you have to spend part of your time on the road, the efficiency is not as good as that of just defeating monsters! But purely killing monsters to upgrade is too boring, and some tasks give good rewards, especially hidden tasks or main tasks, which means extremely generous rewards!
It is impossible for Zhang Yang to remember all the hidden tasks and main tasks. Some memories have already been blurred. He needs to go to a specific place or meet a specific NPC before he can recall it with an "oh"!
After trekking through mountains and rivers, a small village appeared in front of us.
Having a village means that there may be quests to take on!
Zhang Yang whipped Xiong and quickly arrived at the entrance of the village. He saw that the village only had about a dozen households. A dozen women were busy going in and out, and a bunch of little children were constantly coaxing them to run around. When I ran to the entrance of the village and saw the big white bear sitting under Zhang Yang, I immediately gathered around and stared at the Golden-eared Bear King with curious eyes. At this time, the women also saw Zhang Yang and immediately shouted to the children to go back. Each of them held a broomstick and a mallet, staring at Zhang Yang as if facing a formidable enemy.
[Villagers of Baiyang Village] (Elite, humanoid creature)
Level: 65
HP: 130,000
Armor value: 350
Although these women's equipment is outdated, they are all at the elite level. One or two Zhang Yang doesn't care, but if there are more than a dozen, it really feels like poking a hornet's nest.
Zhang Yang said quickly: "I am an adventurer from White Jade City. I just happened to pass by here. I have no ill intentions!" He pointed to the emblem on his chest. After level 10, when choosing which main city to develop in, the chest position of the player's equipment will be Has the emblem of the main city.
"You... are not a bandit?" an aunt-level NPC said in a trembling voice.
"No!" Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "Where are the adult men here? Why are you women and children the only ones?"
"Great!" The NPCs all breathed a sigh of relief, and the aunt NPC said, "Two months ago, our men began to disappear one after another! Three days ago, the last man also disappeared after going hunting. He didn’t come back either! Adventurer, this must have been done by those damn bandits. Please help us destroy those cruel bandits and save our men!”
"Ding! The villagers of Baiyang Village have issued a mission to you: rescue our man. Do you accept it?"
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will do my best!"
"Adventurer, you should be more careful yourself! By the way, this is our own hawthorn cake, which can help you relieve your hunger!" The aunt NPC handed Zhang Yang a small bag.
[Hawthorn Cake](consumables)
Use: Restore 10% health and magic points every second, lasts for 10 seconds, can only be used in non-combat states. You cannot perform any actions while eating, otherwise the eating effect will be automatically interrupted.
Time limit: 36 hours.
Required level: 60
There are 3 sets of hawthorn cakes in one bag and 600 servings, which is enough to last a long time!
This snack restores status based on a percentage. The higher the health and magic value, the better the effect!
It's a pity that this snack has a time limit, otherwise this snack will not be eliminated even if it reaches level 300!
Zhang Yang left Baiyang Village and ran toward the west of the map.
[Rescue our man] (Mission difficulty: C level)
Mission description: Our men were kidnapped by robbers, help us rescue them! According to the villagers of Baiyang Village, their men were probably kidnapped by bandits from the Evil Wolf Village! The Evil Wolf Village should be located in the Evil Wolf Mountain in the west! Warrior, you must hurry up. You have to save not only the men of Baiyang Village, but also countless poor cucumbers!
Completion Level: Find clues to the missing man in Baiyang Village 01
Fortunately, the little girl was not there and Zhang Yang smiled slightly, otherwise this curious baby would have kept asking why the fate of Cucumber was related to whether he saved the man or not.
Evil Wolf Mountain is not far from Baiyang Village. Zhang Yang rushed the big white bear for more than 20 minutes before reaching the end of the field.
Although the Evil Wolf Mountain has the word "mountain" in it, it is actually just a small mountain. Looking from a distance, you can see a cottage built on the mountainside. A wall is built with solid logs outside, and the entrance is It's two wooden doors.
Zhang Yang rushed up to the bear, drew out his ax and shield, and was ready for a big fight. But when he reached the hillside, he found that the gate of the cottage was open, but no one was guarding it. When he looked inside, it was empty.
He rushed in like a bear and walked around the entire village, but he didn't find even a living creature. There was a strange aura throughout.
The mountain breeze blew by, blowing a gust of cold wind, making Zhang Yang feel cold for no reason. . ).
