Gu Fei's movements were considered fast. Since he couldn't teleport underground, after exiting the tunnel, he took out a scroll outside the cave and made a coordinate. Then, he ran all the way back to the main city.
Although Gu Fei didn't do quests according to the rules, it didn't mean he didn't know the correct way to do it. Sometimes, he was just afraid of trouble, so he imagined himself killing his way through. The freedom of the parallel world allowed players to do as they pleased. However, after sneaking into this very suspicious place with the magic bubble, Gu Fei felt that it would be impossible for him to deduce any clues from there, even without the players who were attacking the city.
He first sent a message to Xi Xiaotian and told them to ask Courtney outside. However, Courtney didn't participate in the project and had already said everything she could. The other two people related to the project, Gilkino and Angus, were already dead. The dead couldn't speak.
What should he do at this time? The answer was actually very simple. The quest was given by the Guard. He just had to go back and explain to them what he knew so far, and maybe they would give him new instructions. Unfortunately, this task couldn't be done by others. Gu Fei had to do it himself. At that time, he wanted the scroll to fly out, but it failed. In the end, he finally realized that since these people could come in, there must be a different path.
Gu Fei returned to the city and went to the conference hall to find the Guard. The captain was always sitting behind the desk, waiting for Gu Fei to arrive. Gu Fei didn't waste any time and quickly explained all his findings. The captain's gaze shifted, and Gu Fei looked back. He was surprised to see the old man who called himself the Great Magician Austin in the corner.
"Master!" Gu Fei looked down on this old man who claimed to be knowledgeable but didn't know magic, but this guy suddenly appeared and disappeared like a ghost. At this time, he suddenly came to the Guard's room. It was most likely related to this quest, and he was probably going to give out a big hint.
Austin coughed twice and looked at Gu Fei with satisfaction. "You finally found the water storage and drainage project in Cloud Cloud City."
Gu Fei nodded. "What's wrong with that place?"
Austin began his long and detailed description, explaining the purpose of the project. In fact, it was no different from what the Water Breaking Arrow had said. Of course, Gu Fei had never heard of it before, so he could only patiently listen to the NPC's nonsense. The explanation of the Water Breaking Arrow was the main content that Ye Xiaowu picked out from the main points. At this time, it was a long story for the NPC. He directly talked about the magic plague that broke out in Cloud Cloud City many years ago. After talking about it and talking about it, he finally explained that the water reservoir actually stored dirty water, which was then treated before being discharged. The reason why it was built at the bottom of Cloud Cloud Lake was because the magic barrier needed a large amount of water as a medium.
"If that's the case, the reason why Angus underwent such a terrifying mutation was because it was accidentally contaminated with the magical waste water you mentioned during the construction process?" This was a plot that the players didn't understand. When Gu Fei heard this, he was able to solve the puzzle.
"Poor man, may he rest in peace." Austin didn't know if he knew Angus, but he only said that. He didn't draw a cross on his chest or anything. Who knew which god he was praying to?
"Then what can I do now?" Gu Fei asked.
"Thousand Miles Drunk, it's time to fight back! We will use the water project to give these mobs a strong blow!! "The Guard Captain suddenly burst out with a loud roar.
When Gu Fei heard the captain's words, he immediately abandoned the old man and ran over.
"Follow me!" The Guard Captain left his desk and opened the door to the office. The NPC soldiers in the room had already lined up and followed him. Gu Fei didn't fight with the NPC, but when he looked back, he saw that the Great Magician Austin was also going out.
Gu Fei followed the NPC to the end of the corridor on the first floor. There was a pair of double doors, and Gu Fei saw a sign that read "War Conference Room". The Guard Captain pushed the door open, and Gu Fei followed closely behind. The first thing he saw was a huge sand table. Gu Fei glanced at it and realized that it was the sand table map of Cloud Cloud City.
"Is the map finished?" The Guard Captain continued with his loud voice.
"It'll be done soon." An NPC replied.
"Hey, not bad. You can even do this?" Gu Fei laughed. Beside the sand table, there were three players working hard, sweating profusely. They were used to ignoring the NPCs' conversations, but when they suddenly heard a player's question, they couldn't help but raise their heads.
Drifting, with his left hand writing love, and his right hand writing handsome. The three of them had their sleeves rolled up high, and their faces, arms, and hands were covered in sand and sweat. At this time, when they saw Gu Fei standing beside the NPC with a smile on his face, proudly inspecting their work, they were extremely unhappy. Without saying anything, Drifting threw a Sand Ball at them. Gu Fei dodged it, but the NPC next to him was furious. "How can you be so rude to the Guard Captain?"
"Hahahaha!" Gu Fei laughed. Drifting and the other two were very depressed. They were in the same camp, but looking at their status, this person was regarded as a high and mighty lord. What about themselves? The Wanderer's Association, it sounded very romantic, but after entering the government, they were the lowest level laborers!
"Hurry up, we need it urgently!" Gu Fei warned the three with a serious expression.
"Huh?" Drifting looked carefully to see if Gu Fei was serious or just pretending to be serious and was making fun of the three.
"I'm not joking. We need to make a strategic arrangement. If we succeed, we might directly defeat the attacking side," Gu Fei said.
"Really?" The three were very surprised. They hurriedly sped up their work and said to Gu Fei, "It'll be done soon."
"This is your mission?" Gu Fei asked.
"Yes!" Drifting said.
"Did the system already predict that I would complete the mission, so it prepared in advance?" Gu Fei was surprised.
"Can you be more shameless? Our mission is our mission. Who said that we have to serve you? Isn't it normal to make a sand table in the war conference room? "Drifting said.
"You're right, you're right. Hurry up and get to work," Gu Fei said.
Drifting was right. The sand table was indeed a bit short. The three were now familiar with it, so they sped up and quickly finished. Gu Fei looked at the realistic Cloud Peak City on the map and asked the three, "Who made it? It looks like it! "
"Made? Do you think it's plasticine? " Drifting reached out and picked up the Cloud Peak City. His left hand also demonstrated and picked up the entire Cloud Peak Lake.
"So you guys are making puzzles!" Gu Fei laughed. He could see that these props were directly given by the system.
"Most of them are!" In addition to the puzzles, the three also had some manual work. They were now working on it, but it was quickly finished. Drifting reported to the previous NPC. The NPC turned his head and bowed to the guards. Drifting was unhappy. His status was too low!
"Unrelated people can leave!" The captain said.
Gu Fei laughed again. He pointed at the three and said, "Unrelated people."
"F * ck, we won't go out. What can they do to us?" The three were angry. This was too unfair.
This was obviously understood by the NPC. The guards all pulled out their swords. The three saw that it was the system's power. They didn't dare to make a sound and quickly left. The door to the conference room was closed. The captain pointed at the sand table and explained to Gu Fei.
Gu Fei listened for a while and panicked, "Don't randomly poke! Coordinates, do you have coordinates? "
However, the captain ignored him and continued to explain. After he finished, he raised his hand and inserted a small flag in the location he just mentioned. Gu Fei's eyes were sharp. He saw the coordinates on the small flag, but he didn't dare take it. He quickly sent it as a message.
"What?" The one who received the message was Sword Ghost.
"Write down these coordinates. There will be a difficult task for everyone to carry out," Gu Fei said.
"What is it?" Sword Ghost asked.
Gu Fei didn't answer. He didn't listen to the captain's explanation because he could already guess what he was going to say. He opened the door to the conference room. Drifting and the other two immediately rolled in. The three of them were very rude and leaned against the door to eavesdrop.
"What are you doing?" The three of them were very unhappy. They thought that Gu Fei was deliberately messing with them. It was fine if the system looked down on them, but the players didn't give them face either. This was too much.
"I'm looking for you guys! I have something to do! " Gu Fei took out five scrolls from his pocket. "Quick, take the scrolls. Find Sword Ghost and form a group of five. Then directly teleport out of the city. We have a new battle plan!"
"You set it up here?" The three were surprised.
"Yes!" Gu Fei nodded.
The three of them hurriedly left. They had heard from Gu Fei that this was an important mission that could directly help the defending side win. Naturally, they were very enthusiastic.
Gu Fei returned to the room. The captain continued to explain, but this time, there was an extra flag on the sand table. Gu Fei looked at the location. Just as he expected, it was one of the resurrection camps of the attacking side. He immediately copied the coordinates on the flag and quickly sent it to Sword Ghost.
"Do we first arrive at these coordinates? Then what? "Sword Ghost asked.
"Find the manhole cover of the underground sewer and open it," Gu Fei said.
"Underground sewer? Manhole cover? "Sword Ghost was puzzled.
"That's what it means. You get it, right? I guarantee you won't understand the system's language. Drifting is about to bring the Teleportation Scroll over. Use the scroll to leave. The coordinates I made are a bit far from these locations. Distribute them according to distance. It's best if you're a Thief! I think these locations are a bit close to the resurrection camps of the attacking side. Be careful, "Gu Fei said.
"I still don't understand what you mean," Sword Ghost said.
"We're going to flood their camp. So, we have to open the manhole cover. Got it?" Gu Fei said.
"Directly destroy their camp?" Sword Ghost was pleasantly surprised.
"Maybe! Hurry up! Slim Waist Dance and the other two are also outside the city. Contact them and help them if you can, "Gu Fei said.
"Alright, I got it. We'll also probe the city gates. If we can sneak out, we'll sneak out. "Sword Ghost obviously didn't need to worry about commanding. He continued to make arrangements. Gu Fei's meeting hadn't ended yet, but Sword Ghost had already selected his people and teleported them out. Although the captain hadn't finished marking all the flags, Gu Fei could already confirm one thing: they were all resurrection camps. So, the people who teleported out split up and ran towards the camps. Once the flags were placed, Gu Fei would naturally copy the coordinates and send them to Sword Ghost.
Gu Fei only had five resurrection camps in mind, but the captain still placed seven flags in the end. He also marked the two abandoned camps. Gu Fei didn't think it was necessary, so he didn't pay attention to it.
As soon as the captain finished explaining, Austin stood up. "Now, I'll tell you how to get to the control hub."
"I know," Gu Fei said.
"You know? Hehe, you don't know. The control hub is effectively hidden by a magic barrier. If you don't know the method, how can you find it? Listen carefully. " A cunning expression appeared on Austin's face. Then, his expression became solemn. "The thickest pipe, 17 squares to the north, 14 squares to the west, 11 squares to the north, 4 squares to the west, and 8 squares to the south …" Austin actually started to talk non-stop. Gu Fei was shocked. He immediately grabbed a pen and paper to write it down. Thanks to his outstanding memory, he was able to make up for the time difference between him and Austin. He wrote down 17 squares to the north, 14 squares to the west, and 11 squares to the north. By the time Austin stopped talking, he had written a whole page and a half.
"Go! My child! "Austin said.
"A thousand miles to get drunk. Protect the main city, protect the people, for our ideals, for freedom, for dignity …" The captain was still talking, but Gu Fei had already used a teleportation scroll and left.
He returned directly to the cave entrance and Gu Fei immediately went in. He was cautious along the way. When he reached the end, he even blew out the torch to avoid being exposed. In the end, it was really dark. The entire underground space was filled with players.
"Why isn't there anyone?" Gu Fei was puzzled. He reignited the torch and maintained his vigilance. He began to descend the stone steps. When he was about to reach the end, Gu Fei cast two area of effect spells in front and to the side. In the end, under the illumination of the sea of flames, there really wasn't a single ambush.
"Eh, this is strange …" Gu Fei was puzzled. Along the way, he was still thinking about how to complete the quest of clearing the grids in the midst of battle. The quest was very difficult and relatively difficult. After all, the other side had nearly two thousand people. However, Gu Fei had to give it a try. Who would have thought that even though he had come to try, the other side would not give him a chance.
"The quest is already over? It's faster than me! With Ye Xiaowu's guidance, it's really convenient. "Gu Fei had already reached the bottom. He mumbled to himself as he walked towards the center. Soon, he arrived at the middle of the pile of pipes. Gu Fei turned around, looking for Austin's opening line: the thickest pipe.
"Huh? Why is there a dagger here?" Gu Fei saw a dagger stuck in one of the pipes. He was puzzled and reached out to pull it out. However, Gu Fei's strength was too insignificant for the dagger stuck in by a Thief with 220 Strength. The dagger didn't move at all. Gu Fei naturally couldn't help but bring up the old topic and complain about his pitiful strength. Little did he know that this insignificant strength had saved his life this time. If he could really pull out the dagger now, he would be sprayed to the 15th zone by the waste water on the spot.
"The thickest, the thickest." Gu Fei muttered. Finally, he found the thickest pipe. He then lit the torch on the ground and took a closer look. Indeed, he didn't know what material the ground was made of, but he could vaguely see the lattice patterns.
"17 squares to the north … North … Where's north?" Gu Fei was stunned. It was dark here, so he couldn't tell the direction directly. However, a game was a game after all. It wasn't difficult to choose a standard direction by using the coordinates and the span of the coordinate area. However, he needed some data. Gu Fei immediately contacted Brother You. Brother You didn't hesitate to provide the data and the formula. The Night Streamer Sword, whose length Gu Fei had accurately understood, became a measuring stick. After more than ten minutes of practice and calculation, Gu Fei finally calculated the north direction.
"17 squares." Gu Fei angrily hit the ground and started counting the squares as he walked. The grid pattern on the ground was very standard, but it was very convenient for Gu Fei. With Gu Fei's martial arts foundation, it was very easy for him to control the distance of his steps. After familiarizing himself with the size of the grid, he no longer needed to hold the torch to illuminate the ground. Step by step, Gu Fei firmly believed that he wouldn't make a mistake.
After 17 squares, he continued in the next direction. This time, he changed the direction, but the size of the grid did not change. Gu Fei didn't even need to adjust his steps as he continued walking. Step by step, Gu Fei suddenly walked towards the four squares to the west. Suddenly, the square Gu Fei stepped on suddenly glowed with white light, but the brilliance was fleeting. After the white light faded, only a smear of light was left on the square, but in the dark environment, it was particularly eye-catching.
Gu Fei didn't stop and continued walking. Similarly, after completing a certain step, the grid that he stepped on would shine with a smear of light. Gu Fei finally finished the one-and-a-half page of steps. When he stepped on the last grid, a pillar of light rose from his feet, as well as from the previously shining grid. The pillars of light were connected to each other, crisscrossing to form a net.
Gu Fei couldn't figure out what was going on and took a few steps back. Looking at the formation from a distance, he suddenly felt that it was a little familiar. It was very similar to the teleportation formation that Gu Fei frequently used.
"Could it be that I'm teleporting to some place like this?" Gu Fei muttered to himself. After carefully observing, he discovered that there was a secret between the pillars of light. The light converged, and there was still a focal point. That focal point was the starting point of Gu Fei's steps: the thick water pipe.
The thick water pipe seemed to be attracting the light from several pillars of light, and it itself was getting brighter and brighter. The light went from low to high, and finally, the entire thick water pipe became incomparably bright, illuminating the center of the underground space with a deathly white light. Although the surrounding pillars of light were still there, under this kind of illumination, they seemed to have lost their luster.
Gu Fei didn't know what to do next. Silently cursing the Great Magician, he took a step back into the formation, ready to study it.
But just as he stepped into the formation, he felt an irresistible suction coming from the thick water pipe. Gu Fei was shocked and found that he couldn't resist it at all. Turning his head, he tried to teleport out of the formation. Who knew that this teleportation was six meters away, but he was only able to teleport two steps before he reached the edge of the light pillar formation. Gu Fei knew that this was a forced setting by the system, so he simply gave up resisting and walked along with the suction. Seeing that he was about to hit the thick water pipe, but it didn't stop, Gu Fei was at a loss. He found himself actually sinking into the thick water pipe …
"What the hell is this?" There was nothing but light in front of Gu Fei's eyes. He was just puzzled for a moment before he was finally swallowed by the light. All the pillars of light had disappeared at this moment, and the light in front of Gu Fei had disappeared. Focusing his eyes, he found himself in a circular space that looked like some sort of control platform.
