Dafei once again went to the City Hall to seek an audience with the mayor.
This time, the guard at the door said, "Mr. President, please wait a moment. The mayor is currently meeting with a guest."
Dafei was stunned. The mayor was meeting with a guest? An NPC or a player? He didn't care if it was an NPC, but if it was a player, Dafei felt a faint sense of threat. After all, at the current stage of the game, there weren't many players who could meet the mayor in the city. Based on his reputation in the local server, the players were most likely enemies, right?
Just as Dafei was anxiously waiting, the door of the City Hall opened. A person wearing a green field camouflage cloak walked out quickly.
There was no name above his head, and there was no Hero Halo beneath his feet. It was an NPC, not a player.
At that moment, the guard said to Dafei, "Mr. Dafei, you may enter now!"
It's good that it's an NPC! Dafei couldn't help but feel relieved. At the moment when Dafei brushed past the NPC, the green robe of the NPC lit up. At the same time, a golden light flashed on Dafei's radar!
Treasure? F * ck!
Dafei quickly turned his head and saw a faint Druil Hero Halo appearing beneath the feet of the green-robed man! This is a Hero!
At that moment, the green-robed man suddenly took out a scroll. With a flash of golden light, he immediately disappeared!
Dafei was stunned! What is this? What did I just see? Was that the scroll just now the legendary Return Scroll? The Teleportation Point was not far away. What urgent matter did he have to use up a precious Return Scroll?
Although in other games, the City Return Scroll was an extremely common tool, in Hero: Genesis, the City Return Scroll was an extremely rare magic item that could not be any more high-end. It was split into two types: personal use and army use. Dafei had also seen the God of Gamblers, Warren Buffett, use a Return Scroll on Fire Dragon Island. As for a Return Scroll that could teleport an army, it was useless! In fact, in the game, any item that could teleport was qualified to be called a divine artifact. For example, Dafei's Vortex Crystal, Alaina's branch, and the map device that Makar had just given him.
Setting aside the Return Scroll, how did an NPC suddenly reveal a Hero's Aura? What was that golden flash on my screen just now? In other words, the cloak he was wearing was actually a treasure that could hide his identity? So you're saying that a vampire similar to Makar's butler was exposed by my godly detection skills and a Treasure Appraiser?
As everyone knew, any NPC Hero encountered outside of the tavern was either an Epic or a Legendary. In short, they were definitely very powerful! Why would the mayor want to meet such a hero? Is something big going to happen in the city?
That's not right! Just now, when the other party's identity was exposed, he was obviously flustered and unnatural. No matter how I looked at it, he didn't look like an NPC hero. Could he be a player? But if he's a player, why didn't his name appear above his head? Could it be that I only saw through his aura for a short period of time and didn't have the time to expose his name?
That's right, the teleportation circle wasn't far away. If he really needed to pee, he could have used the Return Scroll directly. Why did he have to be exposed and use it later? This was obviously to hide his identity as a player!
He's definitely a player!
A player who has a high-end treasure that can hide his identity and can use the Return Scroll at will! In that instant, Dafei felt an unknown threat! The situation with Eroline is getting more and more complicated!
But it doesn't matter. As long as I have absolute strength, no matter what schemes you guys have, I'll crush them with my technology!
。。。。。
At that moment, in a certain VIP studio in the Star Guild, Tian Lan Xing leaned back in his chair with cold sweat. He stared at the line of system information that had just popped up on the screen, his face filled with disbelief!
— System Notification: Warning! The disguise effect of your Divine Artifact Disguise Cloak is about to be seen through by player Dafei!
This Dafei could actually see through the disguise of the Divine Artifact so easily. Just how amazing is he? Fortunately, I reacted quickly and used the Return Scroll immediately. Otherwise, if my name was really exposed, then Star Guild would be in big trouble.
For a large guild like Star Guild with many professional experts, it wasn't strange for them to get their hands on Divine Artifacts. It would be strange if they couldn't. Not only could the Disguise Cloak hide a Hero's aura in the wild, but it could also hide a player's name and identity in the city, pretending to be an NPC. This could prevent the famous members of Star Guild from being surrounded and harassed by normal players, and it was also very fun.
Of course, the main reason was that it was very fun. Every time Tian Lan Xing pretended to be an NPC and wandered around under the noses of normal players, he would feel a huge sense of superiority as if he was secretly watching them. The more he played, the more addicted he became. Dafei rarely appeared in the city, and this was the first time they met face to face. He really didn't want to be seen through by Dafei the first time they met, and he ended up dying on the spot!
In reality, when Dafei's Sea of Blood was doing well in Irolyn, Star Guild didn't stop their activities in this commercial port. But Irolyn was just a commercial city, and the degree of militarization wasn't high. Whether it was the production of soldiers or the special forces, they couldn't compare to some important military towns, so it wasn't Star Guild's first choice for development. That was why they only left a few high-level members here to develop. Tian Lan Xing was the person in charge of this area.
Tian Lan Xing came back to his senses and reported the situation to the guild leader, Eternal Star.
Eternal Star smiled faintly. "It's nothing, just some small tricks. Don't worry about it. Oh right, how's the progress on your side?"
Tian Lan Xing sighed. "I don't know why, but the guild leader of the Ranger Guild suddenly quit, and the military lost a supporter. Also, the mayor's achievements increased because of the opening of the fishery, so it's harder to take him down. "
Eternal Star nodded. "It seems that the mayor is also working hard to retaliate. Then there's no rush. Continue to gather information on the mayor. Irolyn's development isn't high yet. Once it's fat, we'll push the mayor down in one fell swoop. By then, Irolyn will be rich, and it'll be easier for the military to do things after they take power! "
"Got it."
Regardless of whether the players had their own territorial cities or not, recruiting troops from the Old World's NPC main cities would always be the players' main source of recruitment. Elven main cities were known to have few troops, so the strategy of the Star Guild, which mainly attacked the elves, was to mobilize their members to build reputation in various cities across the country and station troops everywhere to make up for the lack of troops. In reality, the Korean server, which mainly attacked the elves, did the same.
The first choice for stationing troops was, of course, some important military towns at the borders. However, the weakness of important military towns was also very obvious — they lacked money!
Therefore, Star Guild's attention was naturally placed on some commercial cities in the mainland. The next step of Star Guild's plan was to develop the rich commercial cities into military cities, becoming a true large army producer. A port city like Irolyn was, of course, the first choice for the next step of the plan.
In Skyhaze, where Irolyn was doing preliminary work, they quickly discovered a problem. The lower-level military officers were very dissatisfied with the higher-level mayor. On one hand, the mayor kept reducing military spending in order to develop the economy and pursue political achievements, squeezing the military's space to move. On the other hand, the mayor also had some personal financial problems.
Therefore, the epic mission to overthrow the mayor came, and supporting the military to take power was the main goal of Star Guild. That was why the seemingly small Aroline City hid a huge shadow of the stars.
。。。。。
Dafei met the mayor again and raised a request for the safety of the guild members using the incident of the three Akenna brothers receiving excellent employees. That's right, if Dafei directly said that the players wanted to kill his NPCs and he asked for protection, the mayor wouldn't even care. Talking to NPCs had to be based on the incident that had happened. This was the basic technique of doing quests.
The mayor frowned. "You should go to the city's police station for this kind of security matter. It's not convenient for me to intervene beyond my authority. However, I have a suggestion. As far as I know, the police station is recruiting a guard captain. If you can compete for the position, you can form your own guard team. You can command these guards to protect your guild members at any time. What do you think?"
Dafei's eyebrows twitched! F * ck! Guard captain? He gave me an official position the moment he arrived. That felt too good! But I'm very busy. Where would I have the time to compete for a position? Besides, I'm so awesome. Who can compete with me? Makar could just give me a second lieutenant and a first lieutenant. Was there a need to go through so much trouble for a small captain?
Dafei coughed dryly. "Well, Sir Mayor, everyone knows my ability. Why do I need to compete for a small captain? Can't I just appoint him? "
The mayor said seriously, "No! Although the position is small, the implications are huge. Moreover, you are a human. If you directly take on an important position in the Elven City, it will cause a lot of controversy. Therefore, you must use your own ability to completely convince the Garrison Guard Bureau. If you are willing to take over, I will write a letter of recommendation for you to participate in the assessment directly. As long as you have my letter of recommendation, they have no reason to reject you because you are a human. "
F * ck, they have to discriminate between races in a game. I don't want to be a pain in the ass!
Dafei sighed. "Fine, I'm willing!"
— System Notification: You have received the Garrison Captain Competition Examination Quest. You have 1 competitor!
Dafei's eyebrows twitched. What? There really is a competitor? I'm not playing the single-player version this time? Who is it? Come out and I'll beat you down!
At that moment, a system prompt suddenly appeared on Tianlan Xing's screen!
— System Notification: A competitor has appeared for your Garrison Captain Aroline test, please work hard to face the challenge!
— Pfft! Tianlan Xing spat out his saliva! Who? He dares to compete with me? What a joke!
Now, Dafei had received a recommendation letter from the mayor.
The mayor reminded him, "Because you are recommended by me, the police station's requirements for your assessment might be higher. I believe in your ability. Work hard!"
The big flying egg shattered on the ground. Motherf * cker! Not only did I not get a recommendation letter from the mayor, I even increased the difficulty of the assessment. Is there any justice in this?
