After thinking about it, Zhao Xu accelerated his actions.
His top priority at the moment is probably to find a portal that can escape from this "mysterious cave" as soon as possible, and then he will use that as a base to climb up and attract other high-end players into the network.
But now that he is in the team, relying on his "charm" and "negotiation" skills, he is enough to control the current team, and there is no need to rush to reveal his identity.
Antinoya's teaching to him has always been that compared to spells, secrecy is the true barrier for a mage.
In a mage battle, the reason why intelligence comes first is to know the opponent's trump card so that you can take advantage of it.
A swaggering mage is no different than a fool.
This is also the reason why Zhao Xu has always pursued outdoor adventures and will not reveal his identity unless necessary.
To put it bluntly, he has no intention of pretending to be with the ants anymore. If he doesn't fight tigers, how can he be worthy of his enhanced fly swatter
Ernest even cast a "forgetting" spell on Antinoya's name in order to protect her.
The new students in the Floating City thought that this mysterious female mentor was not much different in age from them.
Therefore, until Zhao Xu could use the "projection technique" of the Mage Seventh Ring Poet Sixth Ring, he might not be willing to give a speech in public in Yanan.
"Two-ring scroll?"
The young male mage who had just tried to replace him said in surprise, "Mr. Lone Star, you must know that a second-level spell scroll is worth 150 gold coins. Even if the copying causes the spell to disappear, the cost of re-copying a second-level spell is only 100 gold coins."
"And keeping the 'Magic Scroll' is better to be prepared in case of emergency?" the young mage man added. At this time, there was an owl on his shoulder, which can enhance the level 3 reconnaissance in a dim environment.
Coupled with the level 6 reconnaissance enhancement brought by the "Alertness" specialty, it can be said to be a key factor for the early mage to survive.
"To me, time is more valuable." Zhao Xu said.
For the ability of "Wise Heart Spellcaster", he will not reveal it.
But to be honest, there is no need to prepare a magic book. According to Antinoya, it is very "powerful".
From now on, there is no need to carry a large number of magic books. The most common blank spell book only has 100 pages of space, but the book already weighs 3 kilograms and costs 15 gold coins.
"Yanan." At this time, the young mage also showed a thoughtful expression.
Seeing the other party's excited look, Zhao Xu continued to put down his feelings.
He believed that his words would slowly spread after these people left.
"At this time, Yharnam has a 'Mage Association' that moved from Falling Star Town, so in the future, the mage branch of the entire wild and dead land will definitely be in Yharnam."
"Mages from other national forces will not rush into the wilderness to report their duties. By then, the entire branch will basically be composed of only player mages."
"And I can tell you a piece of news in advance. All mages who arrive in Yanan can perform their rights in the Mage Association normally. That is, if you advance, you can get two second-level spells for free, which can be collected in Yanan."
Naturally, the premise is that the other party wants to transfer the affiliated membership to Yanan.
For example, Zhao Xu's previous registered membership in the Mage Association was affiliated with Mystra. Later, he was appointed as the president of the Falling Star Town Mage Association, and then transferred to the Falling Star Town Mage Association.
While the young mage was hesitating, another adventurous team suddenly appeared at the front, scaring the rogue uncle in front.
Today's wanderers no longer use "resurrection stones" to find their way, but use "life" to find their way.
They are not afraid of ordinary mechanical traps, but are afraid of magic traps. Once the fireball trap is triggered, one-third of the 20 people may fall down.
Immediately afterwards, the two unfamiliar teams also began to contact each other and informed each other of information.
Fortunately, the high-level players had a tacit understanding before and even chatted in groups with each other, so Zhao Xu's team suddenly expanded to the original fifty people.
When the other team introduced the last woman, everyone was surprised and forgot about the past.
Including the three Qiangwei sisters who are also the most famous on Zhao Xu's side, they are also staring at each other's women.
The jewel of the Dwarf Royal Court in Maca City, the forefront of the surface, is Ms. Natylua, a level 7 ranger.
At this time, this senior female player still wore a rare "Golden Hammer" medal from the "Dwarf King's Court" on her chest, and the "Daylight Technique" on the Qingyu Longbow, which was also a ranger. Below, it shines brightly, as if the light can flow.
"Mr. Lone Star, long time no see." At this time, Natyluya smiled at Zhao Xu.
Everyone looked at Zhao Xu with surprise. It was obvious that he was not just an ordinary mage from Yanan.
Before Natilya traveled through time, relying on the weapon forging channels provided by the dwarf royal court, the chamber of commerce she opened had already taken over nearly 20% of Maca City, and her personal wealth was unimaginable.
Although most of the opponent's property is still in Maca City, they are wary of strangers compared to cunning humans, but the dwarves are very generous to the few people who have gained trust. Although their nature is easy to succumb to gold, silver and jewelry, In greed.
But when the target is the "Dwarf King's Court", it's different, so Natyluya is recognized as one of the few strong people who can regain the property after time travel.
As for some player chambers of commerce that have snowballed with capital, they may have been swallowed up to nothing at this time.
This is also the same adventure. The three Rose sisters form a team closely. But there were no less than ten followers around Natilya, accounting for one-third of the opposing team.
Seeing Zhao Xu bowing slightly, Natyluya also showed a shy smile, "I was really blind at the time. Your Excellency came to purchase supplies on behalf of Lord Zhongxia of Falling Star Town, and I was a dwarf. According to Wang Ting’s instructions, he did not want to get too involved in the internal struggles of the Northern Alliance, so he missed the ‘deal’ at that time.”
"Now that I think about it, Lord Zhongxia must have prepared for the survival of all the people after time travel."
"Then I can really be regarded as a sinner among human beings on earth, and I will reap the consequences of what I am experiencing now."
Zhao Xu smiled and shook his head, "Miss Natilya, I'm afraid you have to verify this in person."
In the real Zhongxia, no matter how he explained this topic, some people would be dissatisfied, so he didn't give a formal answer.
In this world, no matter how well he does, some people will ask him why he didn't contact his superiors in the first place and use more means to let the people on earth know.
Rather than thinking that the moment he opens his mouth, he will be "targeted" by the world for leaking secrets.
Also leaving Falling Star Town, which was beyond the eyes of "Anti Noya" and "Magic Goddess", Zhao Xu did not dare to show off too much at that time, so even the players did not use their "real identities" to get acquainted with each other, but Just holding the name of Falling Star Town Mage Association.
The Demon King of the Abyss has been watching Zhao Xu.
Once a believer learns that Zhong Xia has left the sphere of influence and Graz'zt comes again, Zhao Xu will have to bet on the effectiveness of the goddess' "arrival" again. This is why the other party thinks that he is called Lone Star.
This also applies to the current "mysterious underground cave".
Who knows if there are one or two Grazite believers among these players.
Therefore, during the period before Zhao Xu reaches the "portal" and reveals his identity, in this "mysterious space" occupied by undead creatures, it will be his most dangerous moment since traveling.
Then Zhao Xu also told what happened before when he met the other party's brother, as well as the other two followers, the warrior Bai Sha and the sorceress Qiu Yu.
Natilya was surprised and looked worried, then shook her head.
"The current wilderness is like a copper furnace in troubled times. If I can't protect myself, what can I do to them?"
Although the mysterious mage opposite told him the place and time of the encounter, as well as the approximate location of the camp.
But at this time, everything is in chaos in the wild and dead land. Even the top level 7 or 8 players may die on the streets the next day.
Therefore, even if Natilya has the confidence to make a fortune, she still can't do anything about it.
"Luya, are you really not going to look for her?" Feixu, the female mage standing by and Natyluya's personal magic advisor, suddenly said.
At this time, we are in a chaotic and mysterious area, and everyone instinctively tends to use the previous "game ID" to refer to it.
Natyluya shook her head, "In today's wild and dead land, who can guarantee that we will find someone and bring him back safely."
Although the priests of the gods and the major forces in Yharnam have sent personnel to infiltrate into the wilderness and death land, they are essentially providing relief and may not necessarily take action on behalf of Natilua.
In particular, the other party didn't know Natyluya's brother at all, so he couldn't help him if he wanted to.
"No." The female mage Feixu suddenly shook her head, "Even if the other fourth-ring mages mastered the 'biolocation technique', they would not be able to provide assistance. But the Lone Star mage in front of me has met your brother Luya. So he was able to use biolocation to locate your brother."
As she spoke, the female mage Feixu licked her lips and looked at Zhao Xu, who claimed to be level 5, "As long as we can provide that four-ring scroll."
Natyluya's eyes suddenly lit up. The four-ring scroll of 700 gold coins was a burden to others, but to her it was not enough to pay for a weapon purchase.
But her eyes immediately dimmed again, "We have always been in short supply of magic scrolls. I can get the four-ring 'Biological Location Technique' in Maca City, but in this wild and dead place, just-"
"And we're still stuck here. We don't even know if we can succeed or get out."
After hearing this, the rest of the people who were originally looking at Nadiluya with envious eyes also became gloomy.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have left my hometown. Now I don't even know which camp my hometown is." Qingyu, the younger sister of the three Qiangwei sisters, couldn't help but have her eyes turn red.
At this time, the wilderness is no different from the lockdown level on the earth, and their players only dare to explore nearby.
Traveling far away involves great risks. In the early days, it was basically impossible to find family members far away.
This is why Natyluya is worried about her brother. On the way to find him, he must have spent a lot of time in the wild. It is unknown whether he is alive or not under the "wave of the undead" just now.
"For example, my wife was pregnant and was raising the baby at her parents' home. I continued to work alone in Pengcheng, but encountered the time travel incident. Now I have benefited from the game and can become a player, but my wife did not save money at the time. Come to the big city with me. Now she and the child in her belly are not sure whether she will live or die." At this time, a barbarian player, as if he was infected, immediately hugged his head and cried, "How can the two of them survive in such a high-pressure environment? ah."
"Don't cry. All major camps are now registering whether your family members are players. If your wife knows that you have played Arthur, then if she reports it, at least she will receive better treatment. At most, it will be because it cannot be verified. The treatment is just a discount." Qingli, the eldest of the three sisters, hurriedly comforted her.
At this time, in the wilderness camp, players basically relied on their own strength to seize high-level positions.
Political power comes from the barrel of a gun.
Without gunpowder, diodes, or electromagnetic induction, Arthur, a professional adventurer, is the "barrel of a gun."
And after two weeks, the players quickly rose to the top and occupied the high ground, even relying on the static attributes of the rear measurements.
Countless civilians who have traveled through time have discovered that the loud and clear voices of the previously aloof big shots have gradually become ineffective.
There used to be thousands of employees in the entire group, and the boss, who could work hundreds of people working overtime at the same time with just one email, had to starve and freeze in Arthur.
Those who come in and out are surrounded by dozens of security guards, surrounded by celebrities and Internet celebrities. The "face" that can be exchanged for resources is no longer reliable and has lost attention.
For everyone, living is already a very difficult thing.
The "remaining power" of the original powerful and wealthy classes on the earth has also begun to collapse.
On the other hand, the new order built by the players implicitly acquiesces to a "rule" that is well known but not clear.
Be kind to the player’s family.
In this way, even if your family members are in other camps, they can still be treated well.
The only thing you have to pay is to be kind to other players' families.
This is also the biggest difference between the majority of players and civilians in terms of treatment of relatives.
Slowly, everyone's mood of missing their families also eased.
Zhao Xu, who was present, returned to the original question, "Ms. Natyluya, as long as you can join Yanan, I can help you achieve all the things you mentioned."
"Even at this time, I can provide a scroll of 'Biological Location Technique'."
"And I can also promise here that as long as you join Yanan. Your brother, Yanan officials can give him the qualification of a mage apprentice."
At this time, Zhao Xu also realized the benefits of hiding his identity.
This kind of price would be too low-end if it were opened in midsummer.
But it seems reasonable for him to be the "Lone Star" to drive it.
Everyone suddenly looked envious at Zhao Xu's words, but no one raised any objection.
Value determines status.
Natyluya was the one with the highest status among everyone present. Naturally, she received the attention of the official "Lone Star" mage from Yanan.
Naturally, in return, Natyluya had to invest the forging technology she obtained from the "Dwarf Royal Court" into Yharnan, and she even acted as a middleman between the two forces.
"I-"
Natyluya, who was about to agree, thought for a while but pursed her lips tightly, "I can't agree to this for the time being. I have to go back and discuss it with several core members of the Chamber of Commerce. I no longer only represent myself. "
"That's it. I'll give you an answer in three days after I leave."
"Okay." Zhao Xu naturally agreed.
"Then Ms. Natilya, why are you coming down?" Suddenly the second sister Qinglu asked. As a former priest, she sensed that her way to break through was under the cave, so she came down.
The son of a rich man cannot sit down in court, but Natilya, who already has enough resources and is not just relying on life and death to directly wander through the ranks, has no need to take the risk.
"Sorry, this is -" Feixu, the female mage who was standing by, immediately interrupted the question.
But Natyluya immediately waved her hand, "Feixu, there is no point in hiding this matter now. It is impossible to gain greater benefits by relying on us. It is better to use everyone's strength to see if we can find opportunities."
As she spoke, she took out a crystal from her pocket, held it high and said -
"This is the Orin Magic Crystal. I got it from an undead skeleton."
