The lakeside in the outskirts of the city was a beautiful view of the lake and the mountains. It was the perfect place for flirting. Although most players were stuck at Level 30, the romance industry, which symbolized youth, was flourishing. The lakeside in the outskirts seemed to be thriving. If one wasn't careful while walking, it was very likely that they would step on a couple in the bushes.
With June Rain's rough lines, it wasn't her style to not step on one or two. As expected, not long after stepping into this area, a person jumped up beside June Rain's feet. "Why are you walking? Can't you see there's someone under your feet? "
June Rain and Gu Fei were both shocked. They apologized repeatedly and took a detour.
Gu Fei also became cautious. He used his exquisite staff as a Serpent Seeking Staff. He pointed at the bushes in front of him and muttered, "Is there anyone, is there anyone!"
There were no more accidents along the way. The couple hiding in the bushes heard Gu Fei's shout and saw the wooden stick in his hand. They quickly moved away. Gu Fei and June Rain finally arrived at the lakeside.
The lake water rippled. There was no trash on the surface. The environmental work was done very well. There were rumors that some players had already started to research which production skill was used to make boats. When the time came, they would set up a small dock by the lakeside and rent out a few boats. Business would definitely be good.
Gu Fei was admiring the scenery when June Rain, who was beside him, yelled, "Ah! Treasure chest, where are you? "
Treasure chest!!! Hearing these two words, countless ears perked up. Countless eyes flashed in the bushes and looked towards the two guys by the lake.
Gu Fei looked around. If the quest was to take back the treasure chest, then there should be NPCs guarding the place where the treasure chest was. There were also small monsters by the lakeside, but they were few and scattered. Plus, this was the love zone, so no one would come here to kill monsters and level up. The distribution of NPCs was very well maintained. Gu Fei looked around and didn't find any place where the NPCs were particularly concentrated.
"Let's go take a look!" Helpless, he could only walk in the direction of a few NPCs that looked like a small group. As the two of them moved, the grass rustled. Countless people crawled forward and continued to monitor the two fellows who were talking about treasure chests.
"No!"
"That's not true either!"
"That's still nothing!"
Along the way, June Rain shouted in frustration as she cleared out the NPCs.
The NPCs by the lakeside were not very high-leveled. June Rain was a Level 30 full-powered Warrior, and she could basically kill an NPC with two swings of her axe. Gu Fei did not even have to lift a finger. Gu Fei had no choice but to search the nearby bushes carefully. In the end, he didn't find any treasure chests, but he found two pairs of lovers.
The two of them had already walked half a circle around the lake. Only a few players were left crawling behind them, and the treasure chest was still nowhere to be found. Gu Fei had long since felt dispirited, but June Rain's fighting spirit did not diminish. Her spirits were just as high as when she left the guild. Gu Fei suddenly felt a little sympathetic. This girl's dedication to online quests was like his passion for martial arts!
June Rain continued to kill monsters, pull the grass, and search for the treasure chest. Gu Fei had already begun to slack off. He held a stick and randomly whipped it left and right as he yawned. His current state of boredom was the same as a normal player who had been killing the same monsters in the same place for countless hours.
Suddenly, they heard June Rain shout, "Aiya! It's here! "
"Where?" Gu Fei's spirit was lifted. Finding the treasure chest meant that the quest would soon be over.
June Rain happily pointed forward. In the grass halfway up the slope, there was a wooden stake that had its upper body cut off. A treasure chest was placed on top of it, and there was not even a shadow of an NPC around the treasure chest.
"That simple?" Gu Fei was puzzled. Didn't July say that after finding the treasure chest, she would notify everyone to gather and then everyone would snatch the treasure chest together? In this situation, why would they need to snatch it? Wouldn't it be better to just carry it back? Look, just like Little Rain.
June Rain had already gone up to carry the treasure chest. Suddenly, the grass behind her trembled, and a few figures flew up and dashed towards the treasure chest.
"Ah! There's an ambush. What a cunning NPC! "June Rain shouted.
What NPC? These guys were players that had been following them. Gu Fei knew this very well. From the very beginning, he knew that these guys were crawling behind them. Gu Fei could roughly guess the intentions of these people, but since this treasure chest was their quest item, it should at least have the demeanor of a quest item. Who would have thought that it would be placed so neatly on the ground, looking like it was waiting to be trampled upon?
June Rain was still the closest to the treasure chest. However, with her heavy equipment, running wasn't her strong suit. After a few steps, she was pushed back by a lot. Gu Fei stepped forward and stabbed the end of his staff forward. Then, he swung it left and right. With two "pa pa" sounds, two players who had rushed up were hit by the staff.
Of course, using a staff like this had limited damage, but the two players were a little dazed after being hit. After crawling behind for a long time and using Identify on Gu Fei more than 180 times out of boredom, they had long since confirmed that he was a Mage. When they saw this guy step forward, they thought that they would be greeted with a blazing fire. Who would've thought that they would be hit with a stick?
These two stayed where they were in a daze, while the other two took the opportunity to go around them. Although Gu Fei was an Agility Mage, his speed wasn't slow, but his opponent was a more professional thief. Seeing that he couldn't catch up, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a knife. He raised his hand and threw it. "Xiu!" The thief on the left was stabbed by the knife. He cried out in pain and pulled out a knife from his butt. He was stunned. What kind of move was this?
Gu Fei had already taken out a second knife and was ready to deal with the one on the right.
This one was jubilantly trying to pass June Rain, but June Rain's arm suddenly reached out and grabbed the guy's collar. The Thief subconsciously swung his dagger at her, but June Rain was wearing heavy armor. She didn't dodge or evade. She swung her arm, and with a whoosh, the Thief flew into the air and finally fell into the river with a splash.
Violent Warriors are so scary. Gu Fei broke out in a cold sweat. The strength of this arm had already surpassed the standard of any normal human in life. He was only level 30. If he continued to level up, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At this moment, the guy who had been hit by the two sticks reacted. Seeing that he wasn't seriously injured, he hurriedly rushed forward. Gu Fei turned back and shouted at June Rain, "I'll block them, you go get the treasure chest." He then turned back to face them.
The two seemed to have seen through the fact that the staff in Gu Fei's hand wouldn't hurt them even if they hit them. They didn't dodge, but forcefully broke through the staff.
Gu Fei, who had great awareness of martial arts and was prepared to deal with each move, didn't expect this kind of scoundrel fighting style. Being alone and weak, he was knocked to the ground by the momentum of the two's charge.
"Aiya, you idiot!" June Rain saw this and actually abandoned the treasure chest, wanting to come back to help.
But unexpectedly, Gu Fei, who was about to fall to the ground, suddenly straightened his waist and spun in the air. The staff in his hand swept out with a whoosh and hit the two's ankles.
"Ah! Ah! "Two screams sounded. The two were swept to the ground, but the damage was still not serious. The two were about to get up, but how could they be faster than Gu Fei's professional Carp Jump? Gu Fei, who got up first, stepped on the two of them again, then raised his staff and hit them fiercely. "What are you two doing? Are you going around? I look down on people who don't have any skills in fighting! "
Although Gu Fei was weak, he was fast and had a high frequency. What's more, he had sharp eyes. Gu Fei immediately saw which joints the other were about to move and immediately swung the staff in his hand.
After a few swings of the staff, the two couldn't even lift their heads. They finally learned their lesson and lay on the ground without moving. Gu Fei's staff also stopped. Looking back, the guy whose butt had been kicked by him had already been thrown away by June Rain. At this moment, she was happily running towards the treasure chest.
Suddenly, Gu Fei noticed that the bushes beside the wooden stake were moving violently. He hurriedly warned, "Careful, there's someone else!"
"Ah?" June Rain's reaction was, of course, slow. While she was distracted, a person flew out of the bushes and pounced towards the treasure chest.
Gu Fei was depressed. He might as well not have warned her. June Rain might have already gotten in front of him and could have fought with that guy. Now that he shouted, that silly girl immediately stood there in a daze. Instead, she let the other party snatch the initiative. The treasure chest was about to be taken away by the other party.
Just as he was feeling annoyed, he suddenly heard an air-piercing sound coming from afar. "Whoosh!" The guy who pounced towards the treasure chest flew sideways and turned into white light in the air.
"What's going on!" Gu Fei was shocked.
June Rain's reaction was unprecedentedly fast. She immediately hid behind the wooden stake and shouted at Gu Fei, "Get down, it's a sniper!"
Gu Fei nimbly fell to the ground and lay beside the two guys. He muttered doubtfully, "Sniper?"
"It's a Level-30 Archer skill. Although the damage isn't as good as a Mage's Chain Fireball, a Thief's Backstab, or a Warrior's Whirlwind Slash, the attack range is too terrifying. It can double the normal shooting range. You'll only receive his arrows, but you'll never see him. "The guy lying beside Gu Fei explained.
"Is that so? Can't find him? "Gu Fei smiled.
