After entering the light barrier, Jiang Fei found himself in a relatively empty area. There were a few armed merchant ships scattered here and there. In order to take care of the "novice players", these armed merchant ships were in a passive attack mode. As long as one did not provoke them, they would only wander around a fixed area and would not actively attack others.
At this moment, Jiang Fei was only piloting a shuttle that had no attack power at all. Naturally, he would not take the initiative to provoke those "small monsters" of the merchant ships.
"Biubiubiubiu …" There was a signal of a firefight in the distance. However, the "players" here were pure novice players. Their system's starter ship was not much stronger than the armed merchant ships. So, in the eyes of Jiang Fei, who had piloted a battleship before, the battle between the two sides was like a child's play.
"It seems that this' game 'is quite profitable. There are actually so many novice' players' now." Jiang Fei found many signs of battle on the radar, but because he was marked as a friendly NPC, no "players" came to find trouble with him.
Jiang Fei piloted the shuttle all the way forward. His first destination was the huge space city. After all, he was not a "player". It would be a little too eye-catching for him to go straight to the wormhole in the distance when he had just arrived.
So, Jiang Fei planned to use his identity as a high-ranking officer of the Imperial Army to disguise himself as an NPC who issued missions. First, he would go to the safe zone of the "players" to find out more about the situation. If there was a chance, he would go to the wormhole to collect more information.
Along the way, Jiang Fei was quite smooth. After all, as the Grand Marshal of the Imperial Army, Jiang Fei had already obtained the right to travel freely. The novice "players" did not pay much attention to him. Although in the eyes of the "players", Jiang Fei had a big "Imperial Army Marshal" label above his head, he did not issue any missions, so no one paid much attention to him. They just regarded him as a decorative NPC who wandered around.
After more than an hour, Jiang Fei finally approached the giant space city.
"Request to dock accepted!"
After Jiang Fei sent out a docking request, he quickly got a response.
Under the guidance of the guide ship, Jiang Fei's shuttle entered the giant space city's spaceport and landed on the designated landing pad.
However, after arriving at this giant space city, Jiang Fei did not receive a warm welcome like he did in the imperial capital, Byzenis. The NPCs responsible for operating the space city here were all proper NPCs. They were all created by the Development Team. Their intelligence was generally low, and they only provided some necessary help to the "novice players" and issued some simple tasks. As for receiving high-ranking allied generals, their intelligence was not enough to do such delicate work.
If the NPCs in the giant space metropolis could not welcome Jiang Fei, the "players" would not care about him either. Who had ever seen an NPC come to the Novice Village without giving out a quest, only to be welcomed by a large number of new "players"?
Therefore, Jiang Fei left the spaceport alone. Although it seemed quite depressing, it was the best thing for Jiang Fei. If there were too many people around him, how could he find a chance to explore the mysteries of the giant wormhole?
However, just as Jiang Fei walked out of the spaceport, he saw an old acquaintance of his — Eron.
Speaking of which, Eron was really unlucky. Originally, after Bella brought the experts and fleets of the Five Heavens to support them, the imperial fleet obtained a complete victory and almost wiped out the "player fleet" of the Rebellion Army.
However, after the Rebellion Army sent reinforcements, both sides fell into a stalemate. At this time, the battle between both sides became one where both sides won and lost. However, because Eron was greedy for battle achievements, he went overboard in one battle, causing him to be ambushed by the Rebellion Army. Not only did his fleet suffer heavy losses, even his flagship was destroyed. He did not even manage to save his escape pod and was completely defeated by the "players" of the Rebellion Army. He could only return to the Novice Village to revive.
"Grand Marshal, why are you here?" Ordinary "players" did not recognize Jiang Fei, but Eron had interacted with Jiang Fei before.
"I need help with some things," Jiang Fei said. Since he was here as a quest NPC, he had to keep up the act.
"Grand Marshal, is there anything you need help with?" Eron had just lost a large number of warships, and even his flagship had been destroyed. Of course, he hoped to receive some rare quests to make up for his losses, and meeting such a high-level NPC like Jiang Fei was like a meat pie falling from the sky to him.
"Hmm …" Jiang Fei was silent for a moment, then said to Eron, "I'm afraid you can't do it yourself. I need more people."
"This …" Eron was also a little troubled. He had a lot of people in his guild, but almost all of them were in the Saar Corridor. When they were ambushed before, although the "players" of the guild had their ships destroyed, their escape pods were still there, so they could all revive at the frontline base. Especially since Bella had already taken over an interstellar base, those "players" did not need to run so far and could revive at the Novice Village.
Only Eron relied on the fact that his main warship was specially modified, so he rushed to the frontline. After being beaten up, he did not even manage to escape in his escape pod, and was directly killed by the "players" of the Resistance Army. So he had no choice but to run back to the Novice Village to revive.
At this time, if he called on his brothers in the guild, they would need a few days to come back, but if he asked them to kill themselves and come back to revive, the loss would be too great. If the quest reward was not good enough, wouldn't it not be worth it?
But just as Eron was in a dilemma, he suddenly had an idea, and asked Jiang Fei, "Grand Marshal, do you have any requirements for this quest?"
"No requirements, but at least ten people!" Jiang Fei said.
"Alright then, please wait for a moment, I'll be right back!" Eron was overjoyed. Although his brothers in the guild could not come, there were plenty of newbies in the Novice Village. As long as he put up a small reward, there would naturally be people willing to form a party.
Very quickly, Eron bought a new and effective announcement in the Novice Village. "Recruiting nine members for the quest. All you need to do is to be obedient. After the quest ends, each person will be rewarded with a frigate!"
"What?! A corvette?! "
"Seriously?"
"This guy seems to be the leader of a big guild! He can't be lying, right? "
"F * ck me! Hurry up and sign up, or there will be no more slots! "
…
Eron's announcement instantly blew up the Novice Village. Although a basic frigate was nothing outside, in the Novice Village, it was a treasure. After all, these newbies were still driving armed merchant ships to do quests. If they had a proper warship, how much more efficient would their quest efficiency be!
