With a PK value of 29 points, Gu Fei was now out of the guards' line of sight. No other guards were around, so he was safe. Gu Fei walked out of the Bounty Assignment Hall once more and carefully inquired about the spawn point before logging off.
At the same time, the few men from Young Master's Elite were sitting in a tavern in Linshui City.
"Miles is still online, too? He should be here by now, right? I'll call him! "Brother Assist was still saying this when Gu Fei's IGN suddenly turned black and he logged off.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk!" Even though Gu Fei was not around, his attitude of logging off early would definitely be despised.
"Why isn't your friend here yet?" War Without Wounds asked as he craned his neck to look at the tavern's door after he finished mocking Gu Fei. He seemed to be someone he was looking forward to meeting.
"I'll ask again." Brother Assist sent a message, but his expression soon turned to one of extreme shock.
"What's wrong?" the other four asked.
"He's not in the service area …" Brother Assist was stunned.
Therefore, the other four people were also stunned.
"There's only one person who can send an expert like him to prison …" Brother Assist cautiously said.
"You can't say that. As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands. Even a great man can't win against so many people. Don't you think Miles is awesome? But no matter how awesome he is, if we all attack him together … Yeah, we still have a chance! "War Without Wounds said.
"Tsk!" War Without Wounds' words were met with disdain from everyone. No one wanted to sit at the same table with a top-tier expert like War Without Wounds saying such words without confidence.
"Since he's in prison, we can pay him a visit there," Sword Demon suggested.
"Let's go take a look!" Brother Assist got up.
"Who's paying for the prison visit? Who's paying for it?! "War Without Wounds and Royal God Call both shouted.
"He'll pay!" Young Master Han pointed at the door before waving his hand. "Guild leader Oathless."
"Oh, you bros are here as well!" Oathless Sword and his comrade Gale Force had just entered the tavern. Oathless Sword had found the members of Young Master's Elite more and more pleasing to the eye after solving the problem in Linyin City. He had been bored on the boat ride, so he had tried to get acquainted with them plenty of times and even expressed his concern for Gu Fei.
"Guild leader Oathless, what are you doing?" Young Master Han warmly asked.
Oathless Sword happily came over, "Haven't we just arrived in the city? Let's take a look around and get a better understanding of the situation."
"Taverns are indeed a good place to gather information," Young Master Han nodded.
"That's only natural," Oathless Sword cheerfully answered. "How long have you gentlemen been here?"
"I just sat here for a while, and now I'm about to visit a friend," Young Master Han said.
"A friend?" Oathless Sword seemed to be muttering to himself, as the shock he felt deep down was not small. One had to know that these people in front of him were all top-notch experts in the online gaming world. Each of them had their eyes set on the top of their heads. For them to take the initiative to pay a visit, this friend of theirs was probably no small fry!
"Guild leader Oathless, we'll be heading over first!" Young Master Han gestured for the others to get up.
Thus, these men stood up one by one, and there was even someone who deliberately warmly called out to Oathless Sword, "Guild leader Oathless, why don't you take a seat here!" With that said, these men slowly made their way over to the door, their hearts already filled with anticipation. Everyone had already seen through Young Master Han's intentions.
"Hey, gentlemen!" Just as they were about to step out of the door, Oathless Sword finally caught up with them.
The five men turned around and looked at him blankly.
"What's the matter?" Young Master Han's expression was the most clueless of them all.
"I don't seem to have anything to do, so why don't I join you guys and sit with your friend, so we can all have some fun?" Oathless Sword suggested.
"Sitting is fine, but I'm afraid it won't be lively," Young Master Han said.
"Why?" Oathless Sword did not understand.
"Because this friend of yours is currently in prison," Young Master Han said.
"Ah …" Oathless Sword was stunned. So it turned out that this friend was in prison. Indeed, they had no choice but to pay him a visit. If that was the case, this person might not necessarily be a formidable character. Just as Oathless Sword was pondering over this, Young Master Han suddenly said, "However, I do feel that guild leader Oathless should pay this friend a visit."
"Oh, just who is this person?" Oathless Sword asked.
"Come, let's talk as we walk!" Young Master Han gestured.
"Guild leader Oathless, don't you find the journey from Linyin City to Linshui City a little odd?" Young Master Han suddenly changed the topic as they walked.
Oathless Sword did not understand what he meant, so all he could do was play along. "What?"
"Look," Young Master Han analyzed. "From Yunduan City to Yueye City, there were Mountain Bandits blocking the way; from Yueye City to Baishi City, there were Werewolves blocking the way; and from Baishi City to Linyin City, we encountered Deep Waters and the others who were on a two-way quest. Judging from these three instances, every city we passed this Escort Quest was considered a checkpoint. The first three times all happened on the road between two cities, but this time, after leaving Linyin City and taking the ferry to Linshui City, nothing happened. "
"That's right. That's how it is …" Oathless Sword seemed to have understood something.
"If nothing happened after we left Linshui City, wouldn't that mean that the system did not set any difficulty for the journey from Linyin City to Linshui City? Do you think the system would let you off so easily? "Young Master Han asked.
"Of course not!" Oathless Sword blurted out. The shamelessness of Parallel World's system was deeply rooted in everyone's hearts, so no one believed that they would be able to take advantage of the system.
"In that case, something will definitely happen when we pick up Todd and leave Linshui City tomorrow?" Oathless Sword asked.
Young Master Han nodded solemnly.
"That's right. That must be the case!" Oathless Sword furrowed his brows as he nibbled on his fingers.
"That's why I suggest that you come with us to visit this friend of ours," Young Master Han said.
"What do you mean?" Oathless Sword was a little confused by the sudden change in topic that had never touched on this "friend" before.
"I believe he'll be able to help a lot in Linshui City," Young Master Han said.
"Oh!" Oathless Sword somewhat understood. It turned out that this person was a local tyrant in Linshui City! Just like how Oathless Sword was in Yunduan City, he would be able to help a lot if someone were to come to Yunduan City.
"Got it. Let's go, then!" Oathless Sword urged.
The seven of them quickened their pace and soon arrived at Linshui City's prison.
"How many?" the prison guard asked after they submitted their request to visit the prisoners.
"Seven." Brother Assist turned back to look, as if he was counting the number of people, and reached for his coin pouch after replying.
"Hey hey hey hey! How can you do that? Let me do it! "Oathless Sword rushed forward. Young Master Han promptly turned his face to the side and revealed a delighted smile.
In the end, the men from Young Master's Elite felt a little apologetic when it came to this. Oathless Sword was actually not a stingy person, and he was actually quite a righteous person. It was just that he was the leader of a large guild, so he would often be proud of himself and act all high and mighty, making others feel a little uncomfortable with him.
But right now, Oathless Sword was not acting all high and mighty, and was instead humbly rushing to pay the bill. Thus, these men were momentarily unable to control themselves, and in the face of such a forthright situation, everyone was naturally rushing to pay the bill.
Thus, everyone waved their coin pouches and engaged in an intense competition, with no clear victor being decided even after a long time. Sword Demon shrunk to the side and calmly said, "Stop fighting. Let's split the bill!"
"How can that do? Let me do it! " Oathless Sword took advantage of everyone's moment of shock to hand the money over to the NPC guards without a word.
The guards naturally did not care who the money belonged to and tallied it accordingly. Once the amount was up to seven, these seven players would be able to enter the prison as long as they formed a party.
Once they entered the prison, the seven men immediately felt that this trip was not in vain. Linshui City's exterior looked plain and unremarkable, but it turned out that there was such a thing inside.
Linshui City's prison was actually a water prison!
Furthermore, the seven men were currently in the passageway above the prison cells. The water prison had walls on all four sides, and the iron bars were installed on the ceiling. It could be said that the prison cells and the players inside were all beneath the seven men's feet right now.
The seven men lowered their heads and discovered another strange phenomenon. The water level in the prison was adjusted according to the height of the players, so no matter who was in the cell, the water level was basically up to their chest. This was one of the outstanding aspects of the system, as it would be very difficult to take care of every aspect in a prison cell in the real world.
The seven men walked past a few prison cells, but they did not see many players. It could be seen that the deterrent effect of the water prison was very strong, resulting in the crime rate in Linshui City to be rather low.
Don't think that being in the water prison was as comfortable as taking a bath. There was nothing special about it. Let's not talk about how uncomfortable it was to be in the water for a few hours. More importantly, you couldn't sit in the water prison, let alone lie down. This was the scariest part of the water prison.
Because there were not many people in the prison, the seven men did not take long to find Brother Assist's friend.
Of course, there was no need to talk about grace while soaking in the water. This person had a gloomy look on his face, and even when he saw that there were visitors, his gloomy expression did not lessen.
"I'm here," he said listlessly.
"Yeah. How did you end up like this?" Brother Assist asked.
"D * mm * t. I met a scoundrel!" he said.
"What happened?" Brother Assist asked.
"That guy ran all the way here, and there was a NPC guard behind him, yelling 'Mission'. I couldn't figure it out, so I asked what mission it was. In the end, that guy ran right in front of me and said that it was a 'Bounty Mission'. He then joined forces with the NPC guard to kill me, "the man said.
The men of Young Master's Elite felt their hearts skip a beat when they heard this. Yelling 'Bounty Mission' was just too much like Gu Fei's style.
"What did that guy look like?" Brother Assist's heart was in his throat.
"He looked like a Mage, but I didn't see him use any spells. Back then, it was the NPC guard who slashed me with his sword, and then he swiped me from behind. Oh, yeah. He used a sword and wore a black mage robe. His attack was imbued with lightning damage, "the man described.
"A Video Mage?" Brother Assist asked.
The man immediately had a look of realization. "That's right. He looks like a Video Mage."
Thus, everyone smiled bitterly.
