When the spectators saw that this was going to continue, some of them who were ready to leave stopped. However, there were still some who ran to the outside of the tavern to take a look. They felt that the two of them were not really going to engage in a fight with this group of people outside. They must have set up some sort of trap. In the end, when they came out and walked around, all they saw was the Grandmaster of Combat squatting outside. Other than that, they saw nothing else.
"Old Broken Arrow, you played longer than us!" Someone said.
Hearing the truth, the veterans vomited blood again. It turned out that Gu Xian's hands and feet were hooked onto the table when he attacked. As a result, the Flaming Wheel that fell from the sky was blocked by the table, and the Flaming Tree Thousand Layers Flame on the ground wasn't damaged because he didn't touch the ground.
Broken Arrow smiled bitterly. His group of brothers were all dragged into the game by him to help him. Once they entered the game, they madly leveled up in the wilderness. Apart from that, they also participated in a few group quests under Ye Xiaowu's organization. The NPCs were all handled by Ye Xiaowu along the way. His brothers were only running around and killing monsters. Their game life was extremely monotonous, so much so that they didn't have much interaction with NPCs.
"I've been waiting for you guys for a long time." Gu Fei said.
Seeing the two escape just like that, the veterans were extremely depressed. Sniper God, who had made the wrong judgment because of his good eyesight, was even angrier. He stared at where Gu Xian was hiding for a moment, then suddenly said, "Old Thunder and Big Thunder continuously bombarded this place. Since that guy didn't move, how is he not dead? How much HP does he have? "
Gu Fei's attacks were quick, accurate, and ruthless. Killing people usually didn't cause too much of a commotion. The highest record was flipping over three tables. But now the veterans were so arrogant that they messed up the entire tavern. Moreover, this tavern was very big. There wasn't such a big tavern in Cloud Peak City. If they had to pay for it, even Gu Fei didn't know how much it would cost.
Gu Xian stepped on the chair and jumped. Actually, it was not a normal jump. During the jump, he used the Grandmaster of Combat skill, Galloping Meteor. Halfway through, he canceled the skill with Precision and used Swallow Slash, which resulted in the sudden drop. The Hugging Throw after that seemed normal to the average player, but the one who was thrown had a deeper understanding of it. The grab was perfectly timed with the angle of his charge, and he had no time to dodge it.
While they were wasting time, a bystander suddenly rushed in from outside the tavern. He glanced at the veterans and wanted to say something but did not dare to. Instead, he turned to his fellow enthusiasts and announced loudly, "That priest is back, but just as he reached the door, he was caught by that grandmaster of combat and killed."
This question was very in-game. None of the people present were familiar with game data, so they were stumped for a moment. Water Breaking Arrow, who was the most experienced player in the game, also felt that this problem shouldn't have happened. At that time, old Lei Dalei had thrown a number of spells at this place. Indeed, no matter who hid here and didn't move, it should have been enough to exhaust their HP.
Thousands of gold coins were tossed around like that. The onlookers' eyeballs were about to fall out of their sockets. They really couldn't figure out the relationship between the two parties. Enemy? Why would the enemy hand over a few thousand gold coins so readily?
"I can't use it, and if I mess something up, I'll have to pay for it." Gu Fei said.
"You, you …" The veterans didn't know what to ask.
"I'm old, not like young people …" Water Breaking Arrow said.
The veterans were going crazy. "You don't have to worry about that, do you?"
"This … this …" The players who watched these two fight were all dumbfounded. The veterans were good at real combat, but their understanding and application of game skills were relatively bad, and they were worse than many ordinary players. At this time, the Mage players were amazed by Gu Fei's Flame Flash before he went out, and the Grandmaster of Combat players were shocked by Gu Xian's skill when he rushed out.
"Careful, they saw you!!!" At this time, a voice suddenly burst out from the bystander. Gu Fei and Gu Xian, who were hiding behind the tables, might not have known the veterans' diversion, but the audience outside could see it clearly. Although they couldn't understand the sign language they were communicating with, and didn't know what they were talking about in the channel, they could finally see their intentions when they finally started to move.
"This, this, this … this is shameless!!!" Old Lei and Dalei were speechless when they heard this answer. They weren't young anymore, but they ended up using such a childish word like "shameless."
"I'll run him to death!" Gu Xian said, and then asked, "Is this far from the Priest Academy?"
"What!!!" Water Breaking Arrow and the others were dumbfounded. What did this mean? It seemed like they were stuck in the tavern and couldn't leave, and their supplies had been cut off?
"Let's retreat first!" The veterans were about to leave dejectedly, but suddenly the door was pushed open. Gu Fei poked his head in, looked at them and said, "What's going on? It's been so long and you still haven't come out. "
"How much? I don't have money. " Sniper God had a shameless look on his face, and Water Breaking Arrow immediately fell into memories. Years ago, when he was playing cards with a group of comrades, although gambling was technically forbidden, everyone would gamble in private. Every time this guy lost, he would act shamelessly and refuse to admit his loss.
"Thank goodness you have such good eyes." A voice sounded beside them, and Gu Fei and Gu Xian suddenly rushed out together. Gu Fei's position was erratic due to his teleportation. The seasoned soldiers did not dare to hope that they could pinpoint his position. However, Gu Xian's position was exactly where he was. It turned out that he had not moved at all. He had only used some unknown method to create a slight disturbance.
"If you want to go back so badly, I can actually help you." Gu Fei suddenly said.
Some of the more sinister players saw Gu Fei mingling with the group of people as if nothing had happened. They began to suspect that Gu Fei had shamelessly schemed against these poor players. Hating the rich was a common trait in many people. Suddenly, some people who thought of this began to dislike Gu Fei.
"Good kid! I'm starting to admire you!! " Sniper God immediately became excited, and rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight in Jiang Hu again. However, before he could even take two steps, a person flashed in front of him and stopped him. After saying a few words, Sniper God's eyes widened, "What? Compensation?? "
"I'll kill you." Gu Fei said.
The onlookers were discussing the battle just now, and the guy who had laughed earlier was glancing at the veterans while pointing at the place where Gu Xian was hiding and explaining it to the people around him. Water Breaking Arrow and the others looked at this person's position, and knew that his group could have seen where Gu Xian was hiding.
The others could only smile bitterly and look at each other. Now they understood that the game was a game, and reality was reality. Not to mention Instant Movement, he was able to block Flame's arrogant spell attack with a broken table, and when Gu Xian left, he was able to ignore physical inertia and fall straight down in a straight line. These were all impossible things in reality!
With these troublemakers, the veterans could only speed up. The people who rushed forward stopped tiptoeing, and immediately pounced towards their target. Old Thunder and Big Thunder suddenly changed their direction of attack, and each threw a magic at the area where the crowd was charging. Just from these two spells, it could be seen that although the two weren't good at the game, they were quite skilled in the things that were related to their skills. For example, after they threw these two spells, they didn't hurt their own people at all. The range of the spells was completely covered in the designated area.
"Who has the money?" Sniper God asked.
"You come in, we'll fight here." The veterans said.
"This money … We might have to pay quite a bit!" Gu Fei was still at the door, and after seeing what was happening, he interrupted. He was an expert in this area. He had been in and out of many taverns in his Bounty Quests, and flipping tables and kicking chairs was a common occurrence. Gu Fei didn't know the rules of the system, but most of the time, he was the one asking for compensation. For a player-run tavern like the Little Thunder Tavern, it was fine. They just had to help clean it up and give them some money, and they wouldn't make things too difficult for them. When players did business, they had to be friendly. But when it came to a tavern in the system, they couldn't be less than a copper. There was no way they could be flexible.
"You …" Everyone was speechless.
The money bag flew over, and Sniper God caught it again. Before his brothers could stare at him, he had already thrown it back, and said firmly, "No need."
"We've fallen for their diversionary tactic!" The veterans burst into tears. They had wanted to create a diversion, but who would have thought that they would fall into the enemy's trap from the very beginning?
"Impossible, I didn't see wrong!" Sniper God was shocked, but he believed his eyes.
At the mention of compensation, the veterans' eyes dimmed again. They still didn't know how to resolve this matter! Water Breaking Arrow immediately sent a message to Ye Xiaowu explaining the situation. Ye Xiaowu was on his way here, and he could take out three thousand gold. Water Breaking Arrow let out a sigh of relief. But when Ye Xiaowu asked about the situation, Water Breaking Arrow didn't know what to say. What to say? Tell him that Gu Fei had run away, but now he was back, leaning against the door and chatting with them. Did he still want to borrow money?
Gu Fei scratched his head, "Then what do we do?"
"3216 gold, 14 silver, 54 copper," the NPC announced.
"How much … I forgot, how much?" Sniper God asked the NPC again.
"Yes, we have to pay." Water Breaking Arrow patted Sniper God's shoulder.
The veterans were stunned, and they watched on. From Gu Fei's words, did he mean that he was waiting for them outside? Didn't they have a hard time getting out of the tavern?
Gu Fei swung his sword horizontally, and a Double Flame Flash that spun 720 degrees floated over. The veterans guarding the door knew that Gu Fei's magic damage was abnormally high, and they might die if they touched it. They didn't dare to face him head-on, and could only helplessly choose to retreat. Some of them wanted to see if there was an opening to capture Gu Fei, but Gu Fei's movements were smooth, and the flames on his body were even more resistant than the Resistance Ring of Fire. By the time the flames died down, Gu Fei had already turned and walked out of the tavern.
Gu Xuan jumped into the pile of tables, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw Gu Fei hiding under a table. The pile of tables was like a great wall, protecting the two of them. On the other side of the wall were the flustered Water Breaking Arrow and the others. Go and search! They were afraid that Gu Fei would suddenly appear from a corner and kill them. If they didn't go, only Old Thunder and Dalei's grenades were a threat, but they often hit the wrong place.
"They're moving over there!!!" Sniper God lived up to his name as a Sniper, and he had the sharpest eyes. He instantly saw the slight movement of the pile of tables and chairs, and pointed to warn everyone. Of course, in order to not expose their intentions, they wouldn't shout it out, and would only send messages in the channel.
Just as they were wondering what to do, Gu Xuan pushed open the door and entered, and said unhappily, "Why aren't they out yet?"
"How much money?" A bunch of people didn't care about Gu Fei, and asked Sniper God together. Did the NPC just talk to him? Actually, everyone still had a lot of questions. For example, if there was another PK, and everyone died at the revival point, would the NPC chase them to the revival point to ask for money? For example, if everyone forcefully left the game and never came back, wouldn't the money become a bad debt?
"Learn from your mistakes. Everyone, learn from him!" Water Breaking Arrow said.
The two people who had rushed out from the pile of tables didn't attack the people who came to find trouble with them, but instead headed towards the two entrances of the tavern.
"Take it, I've been rich recently, and I have so much money that I can't use it all." Gu Fei tossed it back. When it came to getting rich, most people would say it in a low-key and humble manner, but not only did Gu Fei not do that, he even described it as "so much money that I can't use it all". He was practically a nouveau riche. It was true that he did not take money seriously, but in the eyes of the public, his image was being ruthlessly ruined by himself.
"Deal with that one first, he can't teleport! Cover him, and prepare to charge! " As Water Breaking Arrow spoke, Old Thunder responded and started throwing bombs. The two of them took turns using magic to burn the place where Gu Xuan was hiding into a sea of fire. Gu Xuan didn't know how to teleport, so he couldn't move silently like Gu Fei. Water Breaking Arrow and the others stared at the place, and even the slightest movement of the tables and chairs wouldn't escape their eyes.
"What do we do without money? Can we walk? "Gu Fei continued to stretch out his neck and ask.
"Why did you kill Red Dust Smile again?" Gu Fei asked.
Everyone was conflicted over this question, and Water Breaking Arrow even sent a message to Ye Xiaowu, but he heard someone in the crowd laughing. At this time, the commotion was over, and the people who were left behind were all enjoying the embarrassment of this group of people after they failed. This was like the comical ending of a blockbuster movie, and it would be a pity if they didn't watch it.
"Not far," someone answered. Gu Xuan looked very disappointed.
Water Breaking Arrow didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed by Sniper God's joke, and instead felt a little apologetic. There was a lot of content in the game, but his brothers only cared about killing monsters and leveling up. They really neglected a lot of fun, and it was all to help him.
"Sigh, looks like we're really old." Everyone was very depressed. They were just a group of retired veterans, and although the game could let them regain the stamina and skills of their youth, they were helpless to accept new things on a spiritual level. This was probably the sorrow of every old person, as it was always the younger ones who learned new things faster.
The NPCs had probably never encountered such a low IQ problem in their lives. This was very different from the high AI that they had been promoting, and they felt a little short-circuited. The crowd, on the other hand, was already roaring with laughter. Of course it was an NPC, the NPC waiters of the tavern. Who didn't know them?
Gu Xuan, on the other hand, was even more carefree than Gu Fei. After running out of the pile of tables, he randomly borrowed a chair from the side, put his leg on it, and flew over the heads of the two people guarding the door. How could the two let him go so easily? They both reached out to grab him, but Gu Xuan, who was flying in a straight line, suddenly landed vertically in mid-air. He kicked the person on the right, grabbed the person on the left, and threw him at the people chasing after him. Then, he dashed out of the door.
"…" Everyone was speechless again. The money bag was thrown at Sniper God, but before he could think, the money bag had already flown in front of him. He caught it, but then he realized that his brothers were all staring at him. Sniper God hurriedly raised his hand and threw the money bag back. "No need."
Everyone looked at the ceiling. Once they entered the game, they only cared about leveling up. How could they have any money? Money from killing monsters? That small amount of money in copper coins was now seen as trash by the players, and many people didn't even bother to pick it up.
The others looked in the direction that Sniper God was pointing and saw the tables and chairs shaking, but it soon stopped. Obviously, the other party didn't want to make too much noise to attract attention. The veterans communicated with each other with hand gestures and decided on a plan. Old Thunder and Big Thunder continued to bombard the original spot, while the others slowly approached the place where the movement was …
The veterans were very depressed. This was the consequence of not clearing the area when carrying out a mission! There were a lot of people in the audience, and they didn't know who was shouting, so they could only stare helplessly.
The team rushed through the area as if they were overturning chests and cabinets, but they were dumbfounded again. There was clearly no one in the pile of tables.
Then he circled around the person and looked him up and down. Finally, he asked, "Are you an NPC?"
More than three thousand gold coins was definitely a huge amount of money. If it was a few days ago, Gu Fei would have thought so too. But now, although he only carried a few bags of money from the tuition fees, as long as the unit was in the thousands, it was no longer in his sight. At this time, seeing the embarrassment of these people who didn't have money, Gu Fei randomly pulled out a bag of gold coins and threw it in. "Pay up first!"
"Are there a lot of bandits hiding here?" The onlookers murmured. Some continued to look around, and some returned to the tavern.
The veterans could also see that the spectators didn't have a good impression of them because they had the advantage in numbers. If they directly went up to ask, they might be rebuffed. After Water Breaking Arrow signaled with his eyes, a Thief tacitly understood. He activated Stealth and went up to scout. While listening to the discussion of the players on the other side, he quickly broadcast it to everyone in the channel.
"Oh? Do you have any ideas? "Gu Xian quickly asked.
They didn't expect the system to be so dark, and they didn't know how the system calculated these bits and pieces of money. This time, everyone began to sympathize with the veterans. How could they feel good after offending the system? These guys didn't look like rich people. They didn't know if they could gather more than three thousand gold coins. What would happen if they couldn't? They had never encountered this kind of thing before, so they started a heated discussion.
"Come out, it's a hindrance to fight in the room. Let's fight outside," Gu Fei said.
