"Is this a guess, or do you have any accurate information?" Someone asked. The last stage of the game was often the most difficult, so it was normal to make such a deduction.
Jiannan nodded and said, "There is information."
"Is it also provided by an informant?" Someone asked.
"No, they don't know what they are facing in the last stage. Even I only received the news after they left the shore. "Jiannan said.
"What news?"
"The moment they left the shore, a new mercenary mission appeared in their next stop, the mercenary building in Sunset City. The content is to assassinate the target they are protecting!" Jiannan said.
"Mercenary mission? These guys have more people than a fifth rank guild. How can a mercenary group contend against them? "Someone was puzzled.
Jiannan smiled and said, "This is an indiscriminate mercenary mission."
Everyone said, "Oh." They were also very familiar with mercenary missions. There were two characteristics of indiscriminate mercenary missions. One was that there were no requirements for the mercenary group that accepted the mission. The second was that there was no limit to the number of mercenary groups that accepted the mission. However, in the end, only one person could complete the mission, and only one person could obtain the reward. Therefore, there was competition.
This kind of mission could be said to be a two-way street. In theory, it could cause hundreds of mercenary groups to fight each other. However, the rules were dead, and people were alive. Every time this kind of rare mission appeared, experienced mercenary groups would not waste their energy on internal strife. Generally, there would always be a few stronger mercenary groups forming an alliance to take the lead in the competition. After completing the mission, they would divide the reward.
This kind of mission had extremely high rewards. Moreover, the rewards of mercenary missions had always been transparent. When receiving the mission, one would know what the reward was, so there was no need to worry about the mercenary group that completed the mission.
"Even so, I don't know how many mercenary groups will join hands and whether they can form such a large army." There were still people who were worried.
"Don't forget Sunset City's Hundred Battles Mercenary Group." Jiannan said.
"The Hundred Realms Mercenary Group..." Someone had already begun to suck in a breath of cold air. Although this Hundred Battles Mercenary Group's fame had not yet spread throughout the parallel world, Sunset City's neighbor, Linshui City, had heard of it. Of course, he didn't know much about the details. He only knew that this mercenary group was extremely powerful. It was said that this group of people were really good at fighting. Some said they were a bunch of hooligans, some said they were a group of martial arts dojos, and some said they were retired soldiers and so on.
Jian Nanyou had dealt with them in the course of business. Although he didn't know where these people came from, he definitely agreed that their skills were extraordinary. Moreover, Jian Nanyou had only seen a few random people in the Hundred Battles Mercenary Group. As for their leader, Bai Jinglun, who was also one of the Five Strongmen, he didn't dare to imagine how strong he was.
Thinking about the Mercenary Group, South Azuresword's brothers started to worry for the players of Cloud Cloud City. "Such a strong opponent. By the time we get off work, they'll already be dead."
"Well, that's a problem. That guy's PK value is 29. Once he dies, he'll probably die on the spot. There's no point in us looking for him. "South Sword said.
"Let's not wait for the ship to get off work. Let's hurry up and find a ship. We're already so far away, they shouldn't be able to see us. "One person looked at the huge ship that was gradually blurring in the mist.
"Okay, hurry up and call a ship." After Jian Nanyou said this, they hurriedly left the beach. They could take a player-made boat, but they didn't have to come to this dock.
Not long after they left, the ferry from the direction of Forest Shade City docked at the dock and a group of people got off the boat. The scene of Waterside City's dock bustling with activity attracted the attention of these outsiders.
The businessmen stationed at the dock didn't know why so many outsiders had come to Waterside City in the past two days. Of course, they didn't want to find out. They just wanted to make a big profit from these outsiders. Waterside City's unique commercial and leisure area was generally able to stimulate the spending desire of outsiders.
However, after this group of people got off the boat, they weren't in a hurry to try it out. Instead, they grabbed the Waterside City players who came up to solicit business and asked when the ship to Sunset City would arrive.
"This, it just left. The next one will leave in about four hours. If you guys are waiting for the ship, why don't you come to our stall and sit for a while? " This guy happened to be one of the players who opened a wine stall. After the other party asked about the situation of the ship, he lost no time in soliciting business.
"Is there any other way?" the other party's leader asked.
"Occasionally, some people will use their own boats to do the ferry business. However, there are so many of you here, I'm afraid this method won't work." As this guy spoke, he counted the number of people in the other party. At a glance, he was secretly amazed. This group of people could be said to be almost entirely Archers, with only a few Thieves and Mages sprinkled in. This kind of team was really unusual.
"Can we only wait here for four hours?" the other party's leader muttered.
"Why don't we sit here for a while? Depth of Water! "someone in the same group suggested. Many people were already eager to try the style of this beach.
Depth of Water! The eyes of the players who listened to the other party couldn't help but light up. This guy who led a team of Archers, with a face full of dust, was one of the Five Roaches, the number one Archer in the parallel world, Depth of Water?
However, all of this was already in the past. Countless people were very concerned about the level rankings, and Depth's loss of a level was already a well-known secret. Of course, everyone was very curious about how such an amazing character had died. At this moment, seeing such a big character appear in Waterside City, everyone stretched their necks to look around, whispering to each other.
"Then let's sit here and wait for the ship!" Depth of Water helplessly spread out his hands. He first picked a random seat, but didn't buy any wine. Instead, he asked the wine seller about some of the situation in Waterside City.
"Oh, that big group of people? They just boarded Sunset City's ship and left. "When asked about the situation of Cloud's group, the wine seller said so.
"Damn, just a little bit more time? This system is so despicable! It deliberately made the arrival and departure times of the two ships slightly different, making us waste time here. Despicable, despicable, despicable!!! "Depth of Water couldn't help but curse.
"Even if we just happened to make it, we can't possibly board the same ship as them, right?" Someone reminded Depth of Water.
"I'm talking about the problem of the system being despicable. Isn't this the truth?" Depth of Water roared.
"It's despicable!!" Countless voices responded, and most of them were Waterside City players.
"Boss, you've already asked your question. What wine do you want?" The wine seller said at this moment.
"Wine?" Depth of Water's expression turned cold. "I've already decided to completely quit this thing. You can ask them!"
Depth of Water and his group waited at the wine stall on the beach for the next ship. Jian Nan and the others went to find a few self-made boats and paddled away. The big ship that Gu Fei and the others were on was still floating on the water.
As long as they delivered Todd to Sunset City's dungeon, the quest would be successfully completed. As the guild leader, Unsworn Sword couldn't hide the excitement in his heart. He rubbed against Gu Xiaoshang for a while, but didn't seem to be in a good mood. He tactfully retreated and began to wander between the various mercenary groups, expressing his gratitude to the remaining mercenary groups. Since some of the mercenary groups had chosen to withdraw midway and returned the commission, Unsworn Sword saved a lot of money. At this moment, Unsworn Sword was in a good mood and took the initiative to promise to pay more after the quest was completed.
However, the reaction of the mercenary groups was mediocre. To be honest, the reasons given by the mercenary groups that withdrew were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. No mercenary group would willingly participate in such a troublesome and dangerous quest just for a small amount of money. Everyone was thinking about the unexpected benefits that could be obtained from such a large chain of quests.
In the end, they encountered a boss in the first stage, but how could a boss be shared among a thousand people? The dropped items were all picked up by Gu Fei.
In the eyes of most people, the second stage, the Werewolf, was passed without much of a reward. Gu Fei, on the other hand, had obtained items from the Werewolf. This was something that no one knew about. If they knew, they would be even more indignant.
As for the third stage, the two-way quest became the fuse. The mercenary group players saw that not only did they not obtain any of the rewards that they were looking forward to, but many of their companions had also suffered heavy losses. Finally, some of them could not help but quit. At this time, the mercenary groups that stayed behind to continue the quest were no longer fantasizing about the unexpected benefits that would come from this stupid quest. There were only those who were proud and valued their reputation, such as the Black Hand mercenary group. There were also those who had some friendship with Unsworn Sword and did not come here solely for the money, such as Gu Xiaoshang's mercenary group. There were also those who had obtained countless benefits from this quest, such as the Gongzi Elite Group.
These people were not very interested in Unsworn Sword's promise of more gold coins, and their reactions were mediocre. Unsworn Sword had been snubbed after circling around, but it did not affect his mood much. He continued to wander around in high spirits.
On the other hand, Reflected Years, who was already in Cloud City, sent him a message worriedly, "It's almost the last stage. Don't be careless. It would be a pity if we fail at this point. "
Half of the journey from Waterside City to Sunset City was by water, and the other half was by land. The boat floated for about an hour, and finally reached the pier in the direction of Sunset City.
This pier was more than an hour away from Sunset City, and besides this passenger boat to Waterside City, there were no other flights, so it was impossible to form a beach market like the one at Waterside City's pier.
After the group got off the boat, Unsworn Sword identified the direction, and they walked in the direction of Sunset City.
Along the way, they did not have the slightest bit of carelessness. Not long after, someone had already noticed that someone was following them.
"It's the players!" Unsworn Sword felt very comforted when he heard this news. He was originally worried that the last stage would be some kind of NPC big boss, and if it was a super OP, they might not be able to survive it. But now that he knew that the players were secretly moving, it seemed like it was another two-way quest like the previous two stages.
In the Shady Forest City stage, it was only because the special environment created a group of special jungle killers that the players in Cloud City suffered a great loss. If it was just a direct confrontation between guilds under normal circumstances, the players in Cloud City were more than Level 5 guilds. Now that it was the last stage, there was no need to worry about the lack of support. So after estimating that it was another two-way quest, Unsworn Sword was very calm.
