As the core of Reigning The Four Seas, of course, he was more concerned about this mission than anyone else. After the discussion, the Reflection of Years immediately picked a few members with excellent speed and rushed forward with him.
The few of them were indeed people with outstanding speed. They left quickly and returned quickly as well. However, there were four of them when they left, but only two came back. The Reflection of Years' face turned pale. Sword Without Oath hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"
"I saw the werewolves," the Reflection of Years said. "But they said they only trust Qianli Drunk …"
Unsworn Sword was dumbfounded. "There's really such a thing? How is that possible? If we didn't invite him for this mission, we wouldn't have completed it? "
The Reflection of Years did not say anything. This doubt was the reason why he strongly refuted Gu Fei's words just now.
"Where are Little Si and Little Ha?" Sword without Oath asked. Four had gone, and the other two were nowhere to be seen.
"They died," the Reflection of Years said.
"What happened?" Sword without Oath was shocked.
"The werewolves attacked them as soon as they met. They were killed on the spot. Fortunately, I shouted in time that we came to help them, and the werewolves let us go." The Reflection of Years still had a lingering fear in his heart. The player who escaped with him also had a dull look in his eyes, and his body was trembling slightly. It seemed that the werewolves had really shocked them.
"I'm thinking," Time's Reflection finally spoke. "It's still impossible for someone who isn't from our guild to become the key to our quest. Qianli Drunk was just a coincidence. It just so happened that he had experienced a mission related to these werewolves. We must have a way to win the werewolves' trust. We just need to find it. "
"It seems that we don't need to do that. We just need to do what Qianli Drunk said before, find the guy who threatened the werewolves and kill him. Not only will we win the werewolves' trust, but the current crisis will also be resolved," Feng Xing said.
"I'm just afraid that this mission was triggered by Qianli Drunk. If we do this, won't we be missing some clues?" The Reflection of Years said. "Or, he will deliberately hide some important clues and use it to blackmail us again."
"It's highly possible!" Unsworn Sword waved his fist. He recalled the bewitching smile of the leader of the Childe Elite Group. Ever since they had invited the Childe Elite Group, they had been ruthlessly extorted.
"Werewolves only trust Qianli Drunkard. You can't say this even if you're beaten to death," Unsworn Sword hurriedly warned. If the Han Family Young Master were to hear about this, he would definitely smash his head until it bled!
"So what should we do now?" asked Feng Xing.
Everyone was at a loss. Even though they had decided to help the werewolves ferret out the mastermind, it was still quite a headache to know where to start.
"Seems like it'll be a little difficult to get on the road today," Time's Reflection sighed.
In a situation where they had no clues, they could only use the most primitive method: repeatedly talking to the NPC until the NPC ran out of new words. In the end, this was what Reigning The Four Seas did. All of the guild members rushed back to Luminous Village, forming groups of three to five, and gathered around a villager to talk to them.
The mercenary group players did not want to wait in the same place. Some of the kind-hearted went to help, while the bored ones ran around to see if there were any monsters to fight. In an instant, the surroundings of Luminous Village were filled with the figures of Cloud City players.
Meanwhile, the three core members of Unsworn Sword had returned to Moonlit Night City and arrived at the Mercenary Building. They believed that since Qianli Drunkard had come into contact with the werewolves in Luminous Village, then the players in Moonlit Night City must have come into contact with even more. Rather than letting Qianli Drunkard become the only one and giving the Han Family Young Master the opportunity to blackmail him, it was better to find a temporary mercenary group from Moonlit Night City.
Unfortunately, the quest that Gu Fei completed was a high-level chain quest. The main NPC in the quest was a Level 70 werewolf. It was clear that this quest was not something that could be triggered by current players. Even if it was triggered, they would not be able to complete it. The fact that half of the villagers in Luminous Village were werewolves was not known to the players in Moonlit Night City. Unsworn Sword and the others sent out a mercenary recruitment notice, but no one answered.
The players who asked around in Luminous Village did not find anything either. The villagers' description of the werewolves was actually the plot of the quest that Gu Fei had completed: A villager was killed by a werewolf, and a passing warrior found out the truth and helped the villager walk out of the shadow of the werewolves …
Although the players directly said that half of the villagers were werewolves, it did not cause any ripples among the villagers. After all, this was a game, and there were hard system settings. If these words were said by Gu Fei, who had done related quests before, it would definitely cause a huge uproar. However, these were normal players. Just because they had heard Gu Fei's description, these NPCs would only think that they were talking nonsense.
In other words, when Gu Fei said that half of the villagers were werewolves, this might be an order that could trigger some plot changes.
To other players, this was nonsense.
The five people from the Childe Elite Group did not participate in this activity. At this time, they were sitting in a small hotel in Luminous Village, watching everything with cold eyes. Brother You returned to the hotel after going out for a long time. He looked at the five people and shook his head, "This method doesn't seem to be able to find out anything."
"Or maybe there's no other way. This quest was triggered by Qianli, maybe Qianli will have to ask the NPCs to provide any information." Sword Demon said.
"Should I try?" Gu Fei said.
"You can go, but if you really get any clues, don't be in a hurry to deal with it." Han Family Young Master said.
"That's too bad." Gu Fei shook his head and left. He obviously understood Han Family Young Master's thoughts. If this quest could only be solved by Gu Fei, then Unsworn Sword would have to spend a lot of money again.
After leaving the hotel, Gu Fei went straight to the Luminous Village Chief's house. With his understanding of the village, the villagers would say "ask the Village Chief", so if there was anything important to know, the Village Chief would be the first choice.
Unfortunately, Gu Fei wasn't the only one who received this kind of notification. The players who had wandered around the village for so long had all heard from the ordinary villagers that "the Village Chief knows more". At this moment, the Village Chief's house had three floors inside and three floors outside. The players were so packed that not even a drop of water could trickle through. It was as if they were having a meet-and-greet with their idol, the Village Chief.
Was this necessary? Gu Fei was dumbfounded. Everyone just had to choose one person to go up and talk to the Village Chief. What was there to fight over?
This was Gu Fei's fault for being too unmotivated. Just like their Young Noble Elite Group, all guilds and mercenary groups would use a point system when it came to distributing equipment, money, or any other benefits. For example, in a group mission like this, it was an important opportunity to earn points. No one wanted to miss this opportunity, which was why there was such competition.
Gu Fei was blocked outside the crowd, but that wasn't all. Suddenly, two players from Reigning the World noticed Gu Fei standing outside the crowd and took the initiative to greet him. "My apologies, Brother Qianli. Our guild leader has said that you've worked hard enough for this quest, so there's no need for you to worry about it."
Gu Fei didn't say anything. With an "oh", he retreated. In his heart, he snickered. The Han Clan's Young Master had long seen through his intention to extort money from him, and didn't even let him participate.
Of course, Reigning the World's words couldn't restrict Gu Fei's actions, but the meaning behind it was: I didn't invite you this time, so help me if you want, and I won't pay you.
Gu Fei didn't really care about money, he just couldn't stay idle. But seeing how busy the village chief's house was, Gu Fei didn't know when it would be his turn, so he turned around and left.
When he returned to the hotel, the five people were surprised. "So fast? What did you find out? "
"Nothing," said Gu Fei. "Reigning the World said he didn't need me to interfere."
Everyone looked at the Han Family Young Master. "How many people have you extorted? They're all guarding against you like thieves. They'd rather work themselves than give up such a convenient opportunity. "
The Han Family Young Master also muttered, "It's not a lot, but it does seem a bit too frequent. But you can't blame me. It's because we're too outstanding. "
The Han Family Young Master's narcissism finally brought everyone along, so he didn't attract any disgust. Everyone nodded. "Yes, yes, we're too outstanding."
"Sword of No Oath, the more he doesn't want us to extort him, the more I want to extort him." The Han Family Young Master rubbed his hands.
"Extort him, extort him." Yutian Shenming didn't hesitate to betray his guild leader when he saw that there was a profit to be made.
"Qianli, who do you think is behind this?" asked the Han Family Young Master.
"How would I know?" said Gu Fei.
"Who was the final boss of your last mission?" asked the Han Family Young Master.
"Adrian …" Gu Fei paused after saying that. "Could it be this guy again?"
"What's the situation?" Everyone asked.
"I specifically asked around today. The previous Adrian was killed by me during my mission. So this guy, although he's also called Adrian and has the same identity in the village, he's actually a new NPC. But … "Gu Fei recalled Hongchen Yixiao's words." The new NPC has the same mission and is doing the same job as the previous NPC. "
"What do you mean?" The others didn't understand.
"The previous Adrian was a bad character, so the new Adrian wouldn't abandon his evil ways and become a good one. He's probably still doing the job of using the werewolves. "analyzed the Han Family Young Master.
Gu Fei nodded. "I think so too."
"Let's go find him!" Yutian Shenming was excited.
The six of them stood up. Brother You moved to Gu Fei's side. "Where did you hear about this?"
"It's not convenient to say …" said Gu Fei as he glanced at Hongchen Yixiao in his Friends list. Brother, if this mission really falls on Adrian again, then you've helped me a lot.
