Reign of the Hunters

Chapter 211: This is a choice

Views:

I don't know if Dong Yin deliberately hid himself, or Ye Ci didn't have the heart to pay attention to Dong Yin's existence. In short, Ye Ci had never heard of Dong Yin since that day. It was like this from Liu Chang, and it was like this from Yue Qingqiu, as if this person had never appeared before, Dong Yin seemed to have completely disappeared from Ye Ci's life.

Ye Ci didn't feel much melancholy, nor did she feel embarrassed at all, because she was really busy right now.

In addition to doing the epic quests of the Dolan Thieves Guild and the side quests in Red Lake City every day, more importantly, in order to accumulate equipment in the guild so as to prepare for the next dungeon group, almost every day Push this.

However, probably because the first kill was taken away by the guild, everyone didn't feel how boring such a book was, but felt very excited. After all, who wouldn't want to wear brand-new equipment

Tan Polang also joined Tiantian Shang. In his friend column, which had been emptied, his names gradually increased.

. However, sometimes, when he looked at the full of names, he could not help but miss his former friends and comrades on another continent. However, these emotions were hidden by him secretly, and no one ever mentioned them.

Ye Ci has never asked Tan Polang's character, why Asia Mist didn't come to Tiantianyang, and never inquired about the story behind this id. First, she has never been a gossip person, and second, everyone must have something they don't want to mention. Or the past that is carefully treasured is unwilling to share with others.

Ye Ci respects everyone's secrets, just as everyone respects their own secrets.

It was as if she was using a similar bug, a fraud brooch, to complete her mission, and of course she didn't want to tell anyone.

Compared with the completion of the side quests in Red Lake City, the tasks of the Dolan Thieves Association are actually more difficult. After all, cheating players with fraud brooches can't be successful every time. Compared to the first few times, the players have gradually learned to behave well. Even if Ye Ci wanders among them, few players will attack Ye Ci. However, everyone knew that as soon as the bandit captain that Ye Ci disguised as appeared, a player would definitely die. Therefore, players who often come to tin-silver veins to level up or collect herbs will run away when they see Ye Ci appearing to avoid unnecessary deaths.

Only a few new players here will be fooled occasionally, just. Humans are easy creatures to learn...

After all, being bullied by monsters and being deceived by monsters is really uncomfortable, not to mention that the level of these players is not high. The experience and equipment lost after dying a few times can make people feel distressed. Therefore, after a few successes, Ye Ci's method of introducing the ruler into the urn was not very effective. No way, she had to find another way.

Since you always bully players, you can no longer complete the task. Ye Ci can only focus on the other two options. The first is to rob the NPCs of Red Lake City, and the second is to kill the designated Red Lake City NPCs.

Compared to killing the NPC who specified Red Lake City. Robbing NPCs in Red Lake City is much easier. First of all, there is no need to kill npc, and secondly, the number of requirements is relatively small. Ye Ci is also smarter. She never robs NPCs in Red Lake City, but looks for idle residents in villages near Red Lake City.

These residents have little attack power, and they don't know how to use weapons, and they live relatively far away, so it's very convenient to start.

. What's more, Dolan thieves will only ask Ye Ci to loot very NPC items, so. It will be reached soon.

But after doing it for a while, just like the player's situation, the NPCs in the surrounding farms or villages also began to guard against leaf words. They rallied armed young men to patrol. Or, just hire some guards to come and stand guard. In this way, Ye Ci will not be so easy to obtain.

It seems that neither players nor NPCs are so easy to bully.

There was no other way, Ye Ci had to go back and lie to the players. Fortunately, the players in the previous wave had basically left the tin-silver ore vein, and now the players who are active in the tin-silver ore vein are a new wave. Although this incident has been reported on the forum, everyone has somewhat forgotten about the bandit squad leader who has been silent for a long time and has not appeared.

After all, players are creatures whose scars are healed and their pains are forgotten.

Therefore, new players will definitely be deceived, and new players will help Ye Ci to complete the new round of tasks.

Another slaughter is over. Ye Ci didn't take off her disguise, she just sat in a very hidden corner of the bandit's den and ate apples. To be honest, this kind of repeated tasks gradually made her feel a little bored, and she kept repeating the same thing every day. , there is really nothing new. If it wasn't for the epic quest and the final reward of the side quest that had always tempted her, she would have given up on these two quests long ago.

Sometimes, the so-called heaven-defying reward will be behind it will be unimaginable sadness and hard work. Ye Ci lifted the apple and took another bite on it. Although everything in the game is virtual, I have to admit that this game of destiny is really the crystallization of human wisdom, just like the apple in her hand. In the previous holographic games, every apple tasted like The same, because their unified overview and name of the system are Apple. And apple is a taste.

But in fate, it is different. Here you can't find two identical leaves at all, and of course, there is no way to find two apples with the same taste. Everything here seems to be the same as in the real world, which often makes people forget that this is just a game brought about by a high-tech revolution, so they become addicted to it and cannot extricate themselves.

From the area in front of the bandit's den, the screams of the players, and the sounds of various skills, Ye Ci felt a little numb. When this happened for the first time, she felt a little guilty, and even went out to watch the fun, but now. For her, it's just a repetitive journey, day after day, year after year.

Just when Ye Ci took another bite of the apple, a voice suddenly sounded across from her: "Every time I meet you, you are either discovering bugs or exploiting bugs.

. "

There was no one on the opposite side, but someone was talking, and the voice of the voice was so clearly conveyed to Ye Ci's ears. This kind of situation is really weird. Could it be that the game is also haunted? In this situation, Ye Ci was a little stunned, but fortunately, she was a reborn person. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she is well-informed in her destiny.

Therefore, she quickly got the answer from the other party's language and vocalization. The other party was actually a gm, and the stealth system was definitely turned on. At this moment, the person was opposite her.

Now that the identity of the other party has been confirmed. She was no longer in a hurry, just continued to eat the apple quietly, and then said indifferently: "Come out and talk. Stop pretending to be a ghost."

The other party lost his voice, and then, there was a loud laugh, and then later. A first-level human appeared on the opposite side of the leaf word. This character is very ordinary, just like all the human trumpets established by the machine. There's no difference, if it weren't for him being in a high-level area like here and not attracting monsters, it would almost make people think that a new NPC appeared.

Ye Ci squinted at the human trumpet, and after a while he said, "Wang Jiangnan?"

"Oh? How do you know it's me."

"Because I can't think of any other plan that would be so boring and so..." Having said that, Ye Ci's already squinted eyes narrowed even more, and her tone became a little displeased: "Pleasant Suspect."

"Oh, don't say that. Anyway, we are acquaintances. It hurts our feelings to say that." Wang Jiangnan sat on the wooden box and unceremoniously reached out and took out an apple from the fruit basket beside Ye Ci. Kaka shoved it into his mouth and bit it.

"Why don't I think we are acquaintances." Ye Ci snorted, even though he knew that this person had a brilliant future. However, as a hardcore player, there is still a certain amount of anger at planning this kind of identity. These people will only play with players when they have nothing to do. Other business seems to do nothing.

"If you say that, I'm going to be sad." Wang Jiangnan smiled hehely: "If I'm sad, I may not be able to control my mouth. If I can't control my mouth, I will use your bug to gain reputation. Things are poking out…”

So planning is not a good thing.

Ye Ci sneered and didn't seem to care at all: "Really? If that's the case, then I have to complain to Glory Group first, customer service number 094, casually check my game action trajectory, and disturb my game life for no reason.

. "Speaking of which, she showed a faint smile: "I don't know that for your plan, is it a serious mistake to privately inquire about the player's action trajectory?" Or is it more credit for finding a dispensable bug? "

"Hey, hey, has anyone ever said that you are hateful." Wang Jiangnan's eyebrows raised.

"Aren't you talking now?"

"I'm just kidding, why bother." Wang Jiangnan touched his nose, then turned his ears to listen to the tragic sound of npc killing players in the bandit den, and couldn't help patting his brother: "Hey, listen to me. , how pitiful and terrifying the voices are outside, you are the initiator of all this, and you have no guilt at all?"

"This is a loophole in your game design. I just happened to find this loophole and use it reasonably. What's the guilt?" Ye Ci faced Wang Jiangnan's sighing face without a trace of guilt, but said it as a matter of course. "Also, as a player, in the game, you either kill monsters or get killed by monsters. That's how it is anyway, so why bother."

"Ahhh, you are so cold-blooded." Wang Jiangnan jumped out of the box, walked to Ye Ci, and looked at her quietly. Suddenly, his hand stretched out unexpectedly.

His movements were so fast that Ye Ci didn't even react, and his hand had already pinched the gray brooch on Ye Ci's chest. Although Ye Ci was still disguised as a bandit squad leader, Wang Jiangnan was indeed shocked.

She immediately jumped back and left Wang Jiangnan far away, her voice becoming a bit sharp: "What are you doing!"

At this time, Wang Jiangnan seemed to realize that his actions were indeed inappropriate. He became a little embarrassed, scratched his hair lightly, and returned to the box. Sitting down again, I repeatedly expressed my apologies: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was abrupt. I just suddenly thought that the existence of this fraud brooch itself is a bug."

Seeing that Wang Jiangnan had already returned to the box and sat down, Ye Ci's heart sank. She exhaled slowly, walked to the place where she was sitting just now, and sat down again. Then calmly said: "What? Want to harmonize?"

"I have this idea."

"it's up to you

. "Ye Ci didn't have any emotional fluctuations, but Wang Jiangnan knew that Ye Ci, a woman, would never allow others to take the meat out of her bowl. Therefore, he didn't say anything, just looked at Ye Ci quietly, Waiting for Ye Ci's words. Sure enough, Ye Ci just paused slightly. Then he lowered his head, gently pulled the fraud brooch on his chest and said slowly: "Actually, I also think this kind of thing is a kind of anti-sky. The existence of bugs. "

It is rare to get Ye Ci's same opinion as himself. This made Wang Jiangnan a little surprised. It seems that he still underestimated this woman. She is not only against the system and planning, but also has very pertinent ideas.

"You are the planner of a game. Of course it's a correct idea to want something like harmony, actually. If I were the master planner, I would also want to think about such a thing as harmony." Ye Ci looked at it with a smile. It's really easy to talk when she gets up. If it weren't for the limitation of her figure, her smile now really looks like a Maitreya Buddha with a big belly that can tolerate the world's hard things.

"What are you telling the truth?" Wang Jiangnan hesitated. Although he said that he wanted to harmonize such a heaven-defying thing, as long as he submitted it, he would soon get the approval and then it would be harmonious. Players are generally not easy to deal with.

"Of course it's the truth, don't you think I'm sincere?" Ye Ci blinked. Looking at Wang Jiangnan's expression, it is indeed very sincere.

However, Wang Jiangnan didn't think so. Whether he uses normal human thinking or the thinking of people like Ye Ci. Or think about this question as a planner's own thinking, and the final answer is the same. As long as there is nothing wrong with this person, it is absolutely impossible to agree to such a thing happening!

"I think you are very sincere, but it is not the kind of sincerity I imagined." Wang Jiangnan told the truth.

"How come?" Ye Ci raised his eyebrows, looked at Wang Jiangnan and smiled: "The fraud brooch is a specialty of the sand scorpion, but the explosion rate is very low, so the thing of your harmony and disharmony is not for future players. It's no big deal, is it?"

"I mean yours..." Wang Jiangnan is so smart, of course he understands as soon as he hears it, Ye Ci's meaning is to agree with the deceitful brooch after their harmony, not the one in his hand, but according to Wang Jiangnan's meaning Speaking of harmony, it would be fairest if all fraudulent brooches are harmonized. However, it is obvious that Ye Ci does not agree with this statement now.

"What happened to mine?" Ye Ci narrowed his eyes slightly: "If I remember correctly, I got this one through normal channels. Although the process is a bug, as a law-abiding person Player, I have already reported it to you, if I remember correctly, the person who submitted this bug is not someone else, it is you who planned Wangjiangnan on No. 094, have you forgotten?"

"Of course not, but..."

Ye Ci quickly interrupted Wang Jiangnan's rebuttal: "But what? Could it be that no one paid attention to this brooch when it was designed?"

Of course this is impossible. For a game like Destiny, there are hundreds of people who plan it alone, and there are tens of thousands of game designers. The production of each item is made through countless processes and the hands of countless individuals. , how can it be so easy to go unnoticed

.

However, Wang Jiangnan can't say it now, because saying it means he will deny the game by himself. Although he did not participate in the main planning of the game in the early stage, it does not mean that he can casually deny the previous game. people work.

Since Wang Jiangnan didn't speak, Ye Ci took it as his acquiescence, so she nodded and smiled: "It seems that such a heaven-defying thing was made, but no one has considered his consequences, and can only say that from the beginning It is reasonable when it is designed. Since its existence is reasonable and my income process is reasonable, then as a planner, you cannot arbitrarily harmonize something that has become my item by saying that it is a bug ."

Wang Jiangnan was speechless. Because every sentence of Ye Ci conforms to the rules of the game, what did he ever say? The rules of the game are used to constrain ordinary players, but the rules of the game are also used by players like Ye Zi.

It turned out that she had confirmed this, and now. She confirmed it again.

"As for the things that haven't been produced, how to restrain them are all things you planned, and have nothing to do with me as an ordinary player. You don't need to discuss with me, and there is no need to inform me. However, what I have Once the harmony is lost for no reason..." Ye Ci smiled slightly when he said this.

"what?"

"If you didn't read my game track, how would you know that the fraud brooch is a bug, and if you didn't know that the fraud brooch was a bug, how would you think of harmony?" Ye Ci smiled: "Speaking of which, you still use the And monitoring players' sex to pave the way for your job promotion. This is no longer a problem of violating the rules of the game and work standards. This is a matter of ethics, you say it, dear customer service 094?"

Wang Jiangnan's face turned blue, he looked at Ye Ci with a wry smile: "Hey, hey. It's too bad for you to say that. I haven't said it yet to be harmonious..."

"No, no, I'm very much in favor of your harmony.

. Ye Ci walked to Wang Jiangnan's side. He patted him on the shoulder, with a good-looking smile on his face, but Wang Jiangnan didn't feel relieved by this smile. Instead, it became heavier.

"You can submit this bug, or I can pretend that I don't know that you checked my game track..." Ye Ci smiled like a fox: "But. In return..."

"You want to keep your brooch?"

"No wonder people say you are a genius, I found that you are not only high in IQ, but also good in emotional intelligence." Ye Ci nodded repeatedly.

"Hey, this is very troublesome." Wang Jiangnan immediately protested, this kind of procedure is very difficult to do. To keep an item at the same time, it is much more cumbersome to delete all its existence in the future than to delete it all, Wang Jiangnan does not want to take such trouble.

"Wang Jiangnan, about killing the witch doctor Blu, I seem to have used the option of hiding the id, but. Why did the betting post appear on the homepage of the forum?" Ye Ci didn't care, just digging gently. Scratching her nails, she downplayed her threats.

"Hey hey hey. Don't talk nonsense, I didn't do that." Wang Jiangnan waved his hands again and again.

Ye Ci didn't believe it. She didn't speak, just looked at Wang Jiangnan with a smile, but that smile made Wang Jiangnan feel shivering.

The two were deadlocked for a while, before Wang Jiangnan sighed: "Okay, okay, I know, I'll get it done."

Ye Ci was very satisfied with this answer, she nodded, then turned around and walked towards the bandit den: "Then I'll go."

"By the way, I still have something to do." Wang Jiangnan suddenly stopped her when he saw Ye Ci was about to leave.

"what?"

"You said, if one day fate becomes a game played by all the people, is this feasible?" Wang Jiangnan looked at Ye Ci, his eyes full of sincerity and urgency.

It's a moving emotion because it comes from something called a dream, which not everyone has. Therefore, Ye Ci always felt moved when he saw this kind of gaze. Although Wang Jiangnan was very vague, Ye Ci knew what she meant. She even knew that Wang Jiangnan was already moving towards his dream.

.

So she smiled: "Why not?"

"I mean, I mean..." Wang Jiangnan looked at Ye Ci's smile, the smile seemed to glow, and people couldn't move their eyes, which made him relax his nervous heart: "I am Said, in fact, although many people play games now, it is the same as a few decades ago. In fact, the penetration rate of games is only high among young people, but not high among middle-aged and elderly people. The group is actually larger than the group of young people, but they will not accept the game so easily..."

"Why won't you accept it easily?" Ye Ci turned around and looked at Wang Jiangnan quietly: "Where did you learn that they wouldn't accept it?"

"At least, my parents are unwilling to accept it." Wang Jiangnan smiled bitterly. This is really ironic. As a plan of fate, his parents have a great prejudice against the professional newspaper game.

"Not everyone in the world thinks the same, your parents are not representative of all people of this age. Why stop at this kind of thing, what a beautiful dream." For the future. Ye Ci didn't want to say more, she thought, the kind of Wang Jiangnan who needs to be enlightened to grow up, I'm afraid it won't be the domineering master planner in the previous life. This is Wang Jiangnan's dream, this is Wang Jiangnan's life, she doesn't need to be the protagonist in it, and she doesn't need to be mixed in, she has already done everything she needs to do just by giving a little advice.

Wang Jiangnan just sat on the box, quietly looking at Ye Ci and her smile. Look at her dashing. Finally, after watching her waving at him, he walked away without reluctance. He couldn't help but smile, he thought, he actually did the right thing by coming to find Young Master You today.

Of course, he would never tell Gongziyou that he came to find her today. The so-called Harmony bug is just a ridiculous excuse. His real purpose is to listen to her advice. She had encouraged his dreams. But now, when his dream was a little hesitant, without any hesitation, Wang Jiangnan thought of her, because he needed her affirmation.

As if there was light on her. As long as he got a little spark from her, he had the courage to continue.

"Thank you. Ye Ci." Wang Jiangnan lowered his head and read silently in his heart, and then his figure disappeared into the tin and silver veins.

Sure enough, the next day, things like fraud brooches were harmonized. Of course, there is nothing wrong with the leaf word. When it went online, Ye Ci saw the updated patch, which was nothing more than the correction of some minor problems, but the one thing that caught Ye Ci's attention the most—something that shouldn't exist has returned to the world where it shouldn't exist. span

.

About this one. No one knows what it is. Everyone has different opinions.

In other words, in fact, except for Ye Ci, the holder of the first fraud brooch, who knew what was said, other people simply did not understand what the official news was about. But no one pursued it. Because it doesn't make any sense.

Halfway through the summer vacation, the Gulan Arena, which players had been looking forward to, finally revealed its true colors.

As the largest arena at this stage. It has already attracted crazy attention from players before it exits. After all, this is not the same as the original arenas of small fights. The Gulan Arena not only regulates the various modes of battle for players, but also has more venues to choose from. In the Gulan Arena, players can not only exchange friendships with players from the alliance continent, but also face players from the hostile continent.

There are five types of competitions in the Gulan Arena: one-player, two-player, three-player, five-player, and ten-player. Each type of battle will test players’ different priorities, and they will gain more honor points and have more opportunities to exchange for advanced pvp equipment.

In addition to having fun, players who go to the Gulan Arena are actually there to exchange for pvp equipment. Although the war between continents has not been officially launched since the game was launched, it has been through several battles in various ways. Everyone clearly feels that if players wearing pve equipment and players wearing pvp equipment If it is pk, it will suffer too much, so everyone pays attention to pvp equipment.

After all, the war between the mainland and the mainland will be a key part of the entire game. If you don't save more pvp equipment before it is opened, after the continental war is opened, it will be as sad as losing the opportunity. No one wants to do this, so at the beginning of the debut of the Gulan Arena, besides pushing the copy, the most common place for players to go is the Gulan Arena.

Ye Ci didn't join in the fun at the beginning. First, because there were too many people at that time, every battle in the Gulan Arena had to wait for a long time to enter. Ye Ci didn't want to waste this time. Secondly, at that time, her epic quests and side quests were at the most critical moment, and she really didn't want to be distracted at this critical juncture.

"After such a long test, I finally feel your sincerity." Mirada looked at Ye Ci who was standing in front of him and said his feelings quietly.

Ye Ci exhaled and thought, now I can finally move on to the next step.

. But missions are tricky, and NPCs are even more tricky. Mirada did not hand over the next task to her as Ye Ci imagined, but changed the conversation and said, "However, in order to test your sincerity in the last step, I still have a small request, I hope You can promise."

"you say."

"My brother. Andre, the real master of the tin-silver ore vein, was captured by Fatal, the warden of Red Lake City. I hope you can help me save him." Mirada said it for granted, as if this Things are as simple as eating and sleeping.

But Ye Ci's eyes widened when listening to the mission, isn't it, this guy asked her to go to the Red Lake City Prison to save people? In other words, let her help the real bandit leader Andre escape from prison! Or do it from the subordinates of the most severe NPC Fatal in Red Lake City! This is not looking for death!

Fatal's level is level 100, and he is an elite-level NPC. Not only does he have powerful attack power, but his greatest magic weapon is to summon soldiers. Although there are not as many summons by city lords and municipal officials, there are also a lot of them. . It's more than enough for at least one leaf word.

This is also too much. Even if it is an epic task, it is necessary to arrange tasks that can be completed, okay? Arranging such a task that can't be completed at all means that there is no difference at all. How to complete it

Just when Ye Ci was having a headache, Mirada suddenly began to speak again: "I think, my brother Andre has never seen you. So, even if you save him, he may not necessarily go with you. So, I will give you one thing, and taking him will allow you to gain his trust."

After Mirada finished speaking, Ye Ci saw two options appeared in front of him. The first is a pack of potent poison, and the explanation above is also in place. Poisonous poison. Just a little bit can kill people, and it's a perfect weapon to use against Fatal and his minions.

The other is a ring, which is also explained above. This is Mirada's ring. This is the ring that Mirada's mother gave to Mirada. Andre also has one. If Andre sees it, he will be very happy.

It's a choice.

Different choices will bring different results. Games, like life, are full of different choices all the time. As long as you make a wrong choice, you are likely to lose the whole game. Therefore, people must be very careful when making choices.

Ye Ci looked at these two choices quietly, should he choose poison or ring

If poison is chosen

. Then according to the instructions on this item, killing Fattar and those guards will become very simple, maybe. You can also earn a lot of reputation with the Dolan Thieves Guild. However, Fatal is the warden of Red Lake City. If he is killed, Red Lake City will not refresh such a 100-level elite NPC by itself, so Ye Ci, a resident of Red Lake City, has to worry about whether this will affect the development of the entire Red Lake City and the future. What a bad influence on the outlook.

In Destiny, important NPCs in each city will not be refreshed after they are killed, just like if a warden like Fatal dies, it means that no one will guard the prison, and no one will send someone to maintain the entire red. Law and order in Lake City. The result of this is that the situation in the entire Red Lake City will be turbulent, and the players will also be affected by the urban turmoil.

This situation will be eased unless the Lord of the City can find another NPC who can replace Fatal as the warden from another city or in the wild. However, given the character of the city lord of Red Lake City, Sakagel, who is a hands-off shopkeeper, it is estimated that he will not care about this matter. If he doesn't care...

What Ye Ci immediately thought of was the declining economy of Red Lake City and the tragic situation where thieves were rampant. At that time, not only players would be disappointed in Red Lake City, but for the residents who depended on their survival in Red Lake City, It will take a heavy hit in terms of prestige and income.

It is for this reason that the option of poison was immediately denied by Ye Ci. Although this option is very convenient, it is definitely something that will harm thousands of years, and one must not be so short-sighted.

The only option left is the ring.

Since there is no way to choose poison, there is nothing to hesitate, Ye Ci can only choose the ring. Soon Mirada put a badly worn gold ring down in Ye Ci's hand and beckoned her to go down the mountain.

There is no time limit for the task, which is a great blessing in misfortune, because it allows Ye Ci to have enough time to think about what to do to continue the task.

Recalling the strategy of the last life, the player who completed this epic quest did not clearly inform the whole process. After all, the epic quest is not something that everyone can meet, and it does not matter much, so he does It took a lot of space to show the final reward.

No doubt, it is very attractive indeed.

Ye Ci even thought that she was a greedy person. If it weren't for those rewards, maybe she wouldn't be so concerned about this epic task. (To be continued)
