After collecting Andriel's corpse, Ye Ci returned to Red Lake City and headed straight to the Newbie Village. There were still quite a few newbies in the Newbie Village, but it was much less crowded than when the server first opened.
The newbies couldn't help but take a few more glances at Ye Ci who was wearing a cloak. Some of them even followed her to the back of the village and watched as she buried Andriel's corpse. According to Tamra's quest, Andriel's corpse was buried beside Tamra's grave. It was only then that Tamra's quest was completed.
Ye Ci let out a long sigh of relief. Before she could touch Andriel's grave to summon him, Tamra's soul appeared above the grave. Before Ye Ci could speak, the newbies who were watching the scene cried out in surprise. They never knew that there was such a thing behind the Newbie Village. They quickly spread the news, and the number of people who were watching increased by quite a bit.
"Thank you, my kinsman. You have fulfilled my final wish. I don't have much to thank you for, but there is a gift for you in my former home. You can look for it there," said Tamra. Ye Ci saw the final instructions on the quest interface. [Find the gift Tamra left for you in his former home in the Rocky Mountain Range.]
Rocky Mountain Range again. Looks like I'll have to make a trip there again.
After sending Tamra off, Ye Ci touched Andriel's grave and summoned him. Andriel was obviously very happy to be able to return to his hometown with his comrades. He expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Ye Ci before speaking, "My kinsman, you didn't come looking for me just to fulfill Tamra's last wish, right? My instincts told me that you came looking for me for something else. May I know what it is?"
Ye Ci raised an eyebrow. Can this NPC's instincts not be so accurate? I haven't even said anything, and you already know that I don't come looking for you for no reason. You're really smart. However, she couldn't say it out loud. She bowed respectfully to Andriel and said, "There's something bothering me. I couldn't find an answer no matter how hard I tried. In the end, I came here to try my luck and see if you can find an answer to this matter."
"Oh? What is it? Why don't you tell me about it? "Andriel was very interested.
Ye Ci then told Andriel about how she found the temple, how she saw the halo, and why she needed the bow. She hoped that he would be able to provide her with an answer. During this period of time, more and more newbies gathered in the area. They saw Ye Ci's cloaked figure. Even though they couldn't see her level, they knew that she must be a very high level player. Many of them wanted her to help them level up. However, when they saw her talking to a ghostlike NPC, they knew that she was doing a quest. They didn't dare to approach her and could only watch from the sidelines.
Andriel was a little surprised by Ye Ci's explanation, "You said that you found King Dau 'er's cenotaph?"
"Yes."
"How do you know that it's a cenotaph?"
"One of my mages once opened Liratiti's grave in that cemetery. There were only Liratiti's clothes inside. I thought that since they were buried in the same cemetery, the specifications should be the same. Thus, I boldly deduced that it was King Dole's cenotaph."
Andriel pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement. "That's right." He took a deep breath, as if he was reminiscing about a distant memory. "The Elven Temple … We once swore an oath there, following the great King Dau 'er. That was such a glorious past. Even if we didn't make it back alive, it didn't matter. We sacrificed the most precious thing for our dreams, for our race, and for this land." He took a deep breath and said, "How nostalgic. Let me think about it. What's the deal with that halo?" He closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
Ye Ci remained silent as she waited by his side. It was at this moment that a few of the braver newcomers stepped forward to greet her, and took the initiative to explain their purpose of visit. Ye Ci was slightly surprised. She turned to look at the surrounding newbies. They were all watching from the sidelines, and they were all envious of the newbies who dared to approach her and talk to her.
However, Ye Ci wasn't someone who would do good deeds for free. Even though the newbies were sincere, she still shook her head and rejected them. She even advised them, "As a newbie, you shouldn't blindly rely on others to carry you. You'll waste the opportunity to practice your skills and positioning. Later on, if your positioning isn't good enough, you'll drag your team down."
Most of the rookies felt indignant after hearing Ye Ci's words. They left in a huff, and the crowd dispersed as well. Only an Elven Warrior was still standing in front of Ye Ci. He asked Ye Ci, "Is positioning really that important?"
Ye Ci glanced at him. She felt it was a pity for her choice of class. Elves were light and agile. They were born with high Dexterity and low Vitality. Choosing an Elven Warrior seemed a little useless. However, if she could train well, it wouldn't be a bad choice. After all, there were no trash classes, only trash players. She nodded, "Yes. Most of the time, accurate positioning can not only save your life, but also greatly increase your damage output."
Hearing this, the Elven Warrior's eyes lit up. He looked at Ye Ci in surprise, "Really? Can it really increase my damage output? When I first entered the game, I didn't know anything. I chose the wrong class. Everyone said that Elven Warriors were trash. I was very depressed. Can positioning really make up for that? "
Ye Ci looked at his sincere face and pondered for a moment. Then she answered honestly, "To be honest, Elves are not a good class for Warriors. Humans, Dwarves, and Orcs are good classes for Warriors. However, it doesn't mean that Elven Warriors are trash. Elves are born with the highest Dexterity. Dexterity affects movement speed, attack speed, and critical hit. It's impossible for a Warrior like you to be a tank. However, it's not impossible for you to be a DPS. Because every time you level up, the system will allocate Strength and Dexterity. This way, your speed and critical hit will be higher than other Warriors of the same level. That's why you should pay more attention to the accumulation of Strength in your equipment. Lastly, add some Vitality. If you practice your positioning well, you can even become one of the top DPS in a team. "
The Elven Warrior listened to Ye Ci's words and became more and more excited, "Thank you!" Because he couldn't see Ye Ci's face and didn't know her name, he could only call her Expert, "Expert, thank you for telling me this. I feel like I'm full of hope again! You know, I'm so close to abandoning this account! "
At this moment, Andriel snapped out of his thoughts. Ye Ci nodded at the Elven Warrior and waved her hand, indicating that she still had a quest to complete. The Elven Warrior nodded and stood to the side in silence.
"I remember now. Before King Dole 'er left, he put the bow into the halo. But how did he do it?" Andriel paused for a moment before nodding, "Oh right. King Dauer had five arrows. They were five different colors and dealt five different types of magic damage. They could also fly back to him. He stuck the arrows into the altar in front of the sacred altar and the halo disappeared. He placed the bow into the halo and pulled the arrows out."
"Five arrows?" Ye Ci raised an eyebrow.
"Yes. I remember that Tamra gave you a Poison Arrow. It's one of the arrows. If you can find the other four arrows, you'll be able to unlock the halo."
"Thank you for your guidance, my hero." Ye Ci bowed and bid farewell to Andriel. Just as she was about to leave, she noticed that the Elven Warrior was still standing beside her. She raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong? Is there anything else? "
"Expert, since you're so strong, can you be my master? I don't need you to guide me, nor do I need you to give me equipment. I just need you to give me pointers from time to time …" The Elven Warrior pleaded sincerely to Ye Ci.
Ye Ci looked at the Elven Warrior and shook her head, "I'm sorry, but I don't like this kind of relationship. If you want to improve yourself, you'll have to train yourself. If you're willing, you can go to the Up Everyday guild in Red Lake City and look for Timely Rain when you're lvl60."
"Up Everyday?" The Elven Warrior widened his eyes and stared at Ye Ci, "Could it be that you're Gongzi You?"
Ye Ci did not reply. She turned around and waved at the Elven Warrior, "I'll be looking forward to your arrival!"
"I will!" The Elven Warrior replied in a serious tone, but Ye Ci did not think much of it. It was not because she was arrogant, but because there were so many new players in the game. Who knew if there were any Golden Era players among them? One should not have the heart to harm others, but one should always be wary of others.
Out of the five arrows, she had two, and Fleeting Time had two. The last Frost Arrow was nowhere to be found. After some thought, she decided to contact Fleeting Time to get the two arrows from him. She could also ask him if he had any clues about the Frost Arrow. After all, the strength of two people was greater than that of a single person.
With that in mind, Ye Ci made her way to Hero City in the Middle Continent.
Ye Ci received a system notification while she was still in the air before she arrived at Hero City. He rambled on for a long time, telling the players to find a place to log off as soon as possible. After all, the expansion pack was about to begin.
A frown appeared on Ye Ci's face. The developers had not announced the release of the expansion just two days ago. Why was it so soon? What is Wang Jiangnan doing? Of course, that was not important. She was flying in the air. Where was she supposed to find a place to log off?
But she could not just sit there and do nothing. If she did not log off now, her character might be rewound when the system shut down. After some hesitation, Ye Ci decided to log off. Even if Ol 'Six was already back in the pet space, she still had the Featherfall Ring. She was not afraid of falling to her death.
Ye Ci immediately logged onto her computer and began reading the content of the expansion pack. This was the first expansion pack that Wang Jiangnan was working on as the chief designer of Fate. It was also a very important expansion pack. The success of this expansion pack would determine whether Wang Jiangnan would be able to become the chief designer of Fate. Ye Ci was initially certain that Wang Jiangnan was the main designer of Fate, but she was now feeling a little uneasy. After all, she was a Siberian butterfly. Many things in this life were different from her previous life. She may have given Wang Jiangnan a lot of encouragement, but … She was even more nervous than Wang Jiangnan.
The expansion pack not only opened up more dungeons, but also added a dimensional vortex that could be used to travel to another mysterious map. This was something that did not exist in her previous life. That was why Ye Ci was interested when she saw the expansion pack. Other than that, the expansion pack had also changed some of the original content.
Firstly, the expansion had lowered the difficulty for Life Players, but increased the value of various recipes. Recipes could be obtained by completing Life Quests or BOSSes. This would greatly increase the number of players entering the game.
Secondly, a series of support systems were introduced for new players to help them get used to the game faster. It also helped to close the gap between the old players in terms of equipment.
Thirdly, the expansion of the Stronghold System. The number of Strongholds on the various continents had increased significantly. Guilds could occupy empty Strongholds and declare war on the Strongholds of other guilds.
Lastly, the expansion pack introduced hidden races. These hidden races were mutated versions of the existing races. They had better stats and exclusive skills.
Other than that, Ye Ci had also made some minor adjustments to the skills of the various classes. Only a few of the melee skills of the Huntress class that she rarely used were changed, which meant that there were not many changes to the class overall.
Ye Ci smiled as she read through the content of the expansion pack. The expansion pack had a lot of content and was very playable, but it was all about one thing: stealing players. Due to Golden Era, Wang Jiangnan had lost a lot of players in Fate. This expansion pack was designed to attract more players into the game. He knew the essence of the game. As long as there was a steady stream of new players, the game would last for a long time.
Ye Ci believed that this was only Wang Jiangnan's first step. Perhaps, Wang Jiangnan's ultimate goal was to destroy Golden Era. Even if he could not chase them out of Fate, he would make sure that they would not be able to continue being so arrogant.
Wang Jiangnan, good job. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
