On the shore of Waterside City, the brothers of Eternal Life were treading on the waves and searching for grass. As a Lurker, their movement speed was extremely fast. It was easy for them to find something as big as a boat, so their efficiency was extremely high. The thirty or so players circled around the shore of Waterside City in a clockwise direction. Not long after, they received the first report: "Coordinates xxx, xxx, a boat found."
"Just one?" Tsubasa Sakuratsuka replied. "I searched carefully."
"Nonsense. How could I not see such a big thing if there were two?" Tsubasa Sakuratsuka didn't receive any respect from his subordinates.
"Stay behind." Tsubasa Sakuratsuka said.
Along the way, they specifically asked around about the private boats in Waterside City and confirmed that most of the boats here were the same. It wasn't that players didn't like to pursue individuality, but that ordinary people didn't know how to make a boat. These boats were all made by a shipping company in the city.
This shipping company was actually a mercenary group. It was said that it was formed by a group of players who had knowledge in this field. This group of people seemed to have discovered this business opportunity not long after they were born in Waterside City and established a shipping company. As the game developed, their line-up also continuously expanded. No one knew the standard of the players in the group. In short, the people in the shipping company were relatively wealthy. After all, Waterside City was a monopoly organization.
According to the shipping company, this type of boat that could carry five people was the limit of the tools and materials that could be found in the game. Therefore, the private boats owned by players could only be smaller than this. It was impossible for them to be larger.
From this, it could be seen that if Jian Nan Yu and the others wanted to go on a road trip out of Waterside City, one boat definitely wouldn't be enough. They needed two, which was why Tsubasa Sakuratsuka confirmed that there was only one boat.
Although they knew that Jian Nan Yu and the others needed two boats to leave together, they didn't dare to confirm that they would park their boats together. Therefore, they could only leave people at the places where the boats were found.
In the end, as the second, third, and fourth reports came in, Gu Fei and the others realized that they might not have enough manpower.
Currently, every main city in the game had a population of several hundred thousand. Waterside City was no exception. In Linshui City, having a private boat was a way to display one's status. Some experts, pretentious criminals, or rich people liked to own a private boat to keep up appearances. Legend has it that driving one's own boat and carrying a beauty on the water was the highest goal of picking up girls in Linshui City. This was the same logic as driving a small car to chase after beauties in real life. If the boat was rented or borrowed, or if it was simply a system ferry similar to a public bus, then the grade of the boat would drop by a lot.
Due to all these reasons, the number of players in Linshui City who owned a private boat wasn't high, but it wasn't low either. The thirty or so people under Tsubasa Sakuratsuka's command were quickly annihilated after they were sent out. At this time, each of them had discovered a boat and were guarding it according to Tsubasa Sakuratsuka's instructions. However, there was still a large area along the water that had yet to be explored.
"How do we do this?" Tsubasa Sakuratsuka was worried. He looked towards Gu Fei and Boundless Mang, the two people who planned this operation.
Gu Fei thought for a moment before saying: "Let's have our brothers take a closer look at the boats we found. Maybe some people will put some sort of mark on their own boat. If they discover that it's clearly not Tsubasa Azuma's, then don't guard it."
"What are the names of Tsubasa Azuma's group?" Tsubasa Sakuratsuka asked.
This question stumped Gu Fei. He only knew Tsubasa Azuma, so he hurriedly asked Brother You. Brother You lived up to his reputation as an intelligence gathering expert. That day, when he suspected that the remaining members of Wandering Sword's group of seven were the characters that had disappeared from the Top Ten in the recent update, he immediately went to investigate the members of the Top Ten one by one.
Tsubasa Azuma's group of seven:
Warrior Tsubasa Azuma, Thief Black Water, Sorcerer Flaming Jacket, Archer Glue, Priest Inakamu, Paladin Invincible Lucky Star, and the other Priest was not a member of the Top Ten.
Gu Fei told the results to Tsubasa Sakuratsuka. He was also quite regretful: "There's still one person we don't know … Sigh, there's nothing we can do. Let's have our brothers search like this for now!"
After Tsubasa Sakuratsuka gave the order, the thirty or so people got busy again. After a careful investigation, they discovered that there were players who had carved their names on the boats. Their names were not on the boats of the six, so no one paid any attention to them. Unfortunately, only half of the players used the simple method of carving their names. The other half also made marks, but they used drawing to express themselves. They looked like scribbles, making it hard for people to identify them. Naturally, they couldn't give up on guarding the boats.
However, they could finally split up some people to continue working. The remaining people were also arranged to move around as much as possible. They just needed to keep the boats that they found within the range of their eyes.
"Let's hurry up!" Boundless Mang said. "The more people we have, the more power we have."
"Brother Zui, you can't just leave me here!" Fireball cried. Along the way, there were actually people who received his quest to arrest him. Fortunately, Gu Fei was there to deal with them. After a few exchanges, the other party felt that they were no match for him and left. If Gu Fei wasn't there, Fireball would have already been trapped in the water dungeon.
"Okay, come with me!" Gu Fei said.
As they spoke, the four of them finally arrived at the city gate. There were actually no strong players from many guilds here, which surprised them.
"Looks like Azureblade has already left the city!"
"We need to hurry!" Gu Fei said.
Fireball saw the situation and knew that if he continued to drag things out and slow down Gu Fei's movements, it would be a bit annoying. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Zui, hurry up and go. I can do it myself."
"Okay, you be careful. I think you should go to the beach at the pier and drink some wine. If you're there, the people who received the quest won't dare to touch you. " After Gu Fei patted him, he nodded at Tsubasa Sakuratsuka and Boundless Mang and ran out of the city gate as fast as he could.
"Brother Zui, you're such a practical person. Why didn't you be polite to me?" Fireball's face was full of tears. He swore to himself that he would never play with high quality equipment again.
"Then Fireball, you go drink. We'll hurry up and go." The other two also said to Fireball. At this critical moment, Tsubasa Sakuratsuka had the demeanor of a general. He didn't stick to the girl and used his fastest speed to search the other side. He randomly chose a side in the boundless Mang and slowly walked away.
Gu Fei sped along the beach outside the city. He felt that it was a bit strange when he saw that everything was calm.
Since Azuma Tsubasa had already left the city, the guilds should have guessed his intentions and wanted to set up camp at the beach. Even if they couldn't set up camp in a short time, there should be some scattered people around! For example, the guards at the city gate. How could they disappear so quickly after coming out of the city gate? Gu Fei looked left and right. Other than Sakurazuka Tsukuzai who had just come out with him and the vast expanse of grass, there was no one else.
Of course, Gu Fei didn't know that the scene at the west gate had already changed the situation.
After a few minutes of fierce and chaotic struggle, someone finally took advantage of the opportunity when he fell and ruthlessly snatched the staff from his hands. Although he was quickly slaughtered amidst the crowd's cries of surprise, he was very happy that he managed to get his hands on the Magic Staff.
This person was a Warrior. When he resurrected at the Warrior Camp, he was still holding the Magic Staff in his hand. After he couldn't wait to admire the Magic Staff's attributes, his whole body was already numb.
At this time, his Guild Master had already received the good news of him snatching the Magic Staff and immediately sent a congratulatory message. In the end, he received a bitter reply from the Warrior, "Guild Master, we were tricked!!!" At the same time, he sent the Magic Staff's attributes to the Guild Master.
It was an extremely ordinary Magic Staff, but it was easy for people to understand that they had been tricked. The Guild Master immediately sent an order to the other guild members, "Immediately chase out of the city!!"
Then, he was about to tell the other Guild Masters about this situation, but the moment before he sent the message, he suddenly stopped.
"Why do I have to tell the others?" He suddenly asked himself this question.
The others don't know that the Magic Staff is fake. Seeing our people snatch it, they definitely won't be satisfied. Therefore, they will definitely gather at the Warrior Camp. Since their attention has been successfully diverted, aren't we the only ones who know the true whereabouts of the Magic Staff?
That was close, I almost did something stupid. The Guild Master quickly deleted the message he had just written and sent it to the Warrior who sacrificed himself to pick up the Magic Staff, "You've worked hard. Go offline and rest for a while!"
"Ah? Why? "The Warrior didn't understand.
The Guild Master didn't hide anything and simply explained his thoughts. This Warrior really didn't care about personal matters for the sake of the guild. He nodded happily and went offline.
Everything was as the Guild Master had predicted. Although the other guilds didn't manage to snatch the Magic Staff, they clearly saw who had it. At this time, after reporting it, the guilds had already started moving towards the Warrior Camp, ready to use their actions to shed all pretense of cordiality.
In the end, before they could do anything, the comrade who stayed behind at the Warrior Camp sent a message, "That Warrior immediately went offline after reviving!"
"F * ck, he moved so fast!" The Guild Masters were all furious. No matter how good an individual was, no matter how powerful a guild was, they could only scratch the wall in pain when faced with going offline.
"F * ck, guard the Warrior Camp 24 hours. Don't let go of anyone who came into contact with that guy!!!" A Guild Master had already gone crazy and issued such an order.
As the person in charge of this event, Narrow Shadow was also very angry. He communicated with the Guild Masters one by one, venting his displeasure in his heart.
"It's rare that everyone is free. Come to my tavern on the beach for a drink. It's my treat." Narrow Shadow sent out an invitation.
Some Guild Masters who liked to vent their anger immediately agreed. Others felt that Narrow Shadow's invitation this time seemed to have a deeper meaning. In the end, no one refused.
"Alright, I'll wait for everyone at the tavern. See you there." After Narrow Shadow sent this message, he started walking towards his tavern on the beach. There was a smile on his face the entire time. He didn't look like he was angry in the message at all.
