Time ticked by, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them had been squatting on the wall for an hour. However, this did not affect Gu Fei's focus at all. He continued to hold the binoculars in one hand and a pen in the other, carefully recording in his notebook. Yan Xiaozhu, on the other hand, was bored and could only rely on the diary to pass the time. However, she was clearly an extremely normal player, and this kind of thing was meaningless to her. If she wanted to read a novel, lying on her bed at home was definitely more comfortable than this wall.
"Hey, are we really going to stay here for six hours?" The way Yan Xiaozhu looked at Gu Fei was gradually filled with fear. This person was too terrifying, be it in terms of his skills or his spirit. Staying in the same place with someone for an hour without saying a word was something that Yan Xiaozhu did not even dare to imagine. But today, it had happened just like that. Yan Xiaozhu wanted to talk to Gu Fei several times, but she held back in the end. Gu Fei's focus made her feel like she was ruining the atmosphere by talking to him. However, an hour had passed, and Yan Xiaozhu could not stand it anymore. If she did not destroy it, she felt like she would go crazy.
"I said six hours might not be enough." Gu Fei did not even look at her, only focusing on the NPCs in the yard. The fixed NPCs were easier to deal with. The main ones were the ones that moved, and there were a few that Gu Fei could not figure out their patterns. After all, the yard was very big, and the field of vision through the binoculars was limited, so he could not grasp everything so quickly.
"Then do I have to stay here for so long?" Yan Xiaozhu asked.
Gu Fei finally looked at her. "No one asked you to come. You came here on your own."
Yan Xiaozhu was speechless. She was very regretful. Curiosity could really kill, but how could she have known that she would encounter such a boring thing and boring person.
"So boring!" Yan Xiaozhu wanted to stand up and stretch, but she was stopped by Gu Fei halfway. "Don't move, squat down!"
Yan Xiaozhu was in tears. She could not even stretch!
"You can go first!" Gu Fei took out a rope and gave it to Yan Xiaozhu. "Hang it and slide down."
Yan Xiaozhu did not take it. It was not that she did not want to go first, but she was still very curious. She really wanted to see what this strange person, Gu Fei, would do.
Not daring to stand up straight, Yan Xiaozhu practically crawled to Gu Fei's side. She tilted her head to look at the things he had recorded in his notebook and suddenly said, "NPCs do have a fixed pattern to follow, but what about the players who are blinded by the fog? They also keep people in the yard for twenty-four hours, and the players don't have such a fixed pattern. " Rather than being bored, why not throw yourself into it? Yan Xiaozhu thought, and finally gave a more practical suggestion.
"Isn't it?" Yan Xiaozhu said. of Yan Ye of.
"Has Giordano appeared?" Yan Xiaozhu asked.
Yan Chen of Yan. Gu Fei looked down at the sky. It was almost dusk in the game, and the sky was starting to darken. Although it wouldn't be pitch black in the end, it would still affect his vision. "of of Yan of of of of. of, Yan Yan of. of of, Ocean in..
"Actually, I might be able to find out when Giordano appears," Yan Xiaozhu said.
"There's no need for that! We'll see him eventually, "Gu Fei said. He did not want to attract unnecessary suspicion for something that could be done right under his nose.
"Hey, he's out. That seems to be him!" Speak of the devil. Just as they were discussing Giordano, they saw a person walk out of the heavily guarded door of the city hall.
"I see him," Gu Fei said. The spot he chose was a place where he did not need binoculars to observe the entrance of the city hall. When he was observing and recording the other NPCs, he did not let his guard down. He saw this person as soon as he walked out of the building, did he even need Yan Xiaozhu to remind him?
"Is this Giordano?" Gu Fei did not know his identity.
"I think so." Yan Xiaozhu was not too sure. At the time, she was just in the crowd and glanced at the NPC.
Gu Fei fixed his binoculars on the suspected Giordano. If this was his assassination target, he would at least recognize what he looked like.
The man walked out of the city hall and slowly walked down the stairs. The players who seemed to be idling around in a daze were stirred. It seemed that this suspicion could be confirmed. Gu Fei thought as he memorized Giordano's appearance. A handsome and mature male NPC with a short beard. He had a long sword at his waist and his left hand gripped the hilt. His steps were slow but powerful.
Gu Fei was a little worried. If the players took the initiative to ask Giordano about the progress of the quest, would Giordano return to the city hall after completing the quest? Gu Fei sincerely hoped that Giordano would have the strength of character of an NPC. He would do things according to procedure and not be so influenced by the actions of the players.
The development of the situation was more in line with Gu Fei's expectations. When Giordano appeared, the players in the fog also moved, but no one stepped forward. Everyone's eyes followed Giordano, watching as he began to wander around the courtyard step by step.
Gu Fei's eyes followed him, and his hands did not stop, quickly recording. The actions of all the NPCs in the courtyard changed because of Giordano's appearance. Gu Fei groaned inwardly. This meant that the previous recording was likely to be in vain because Giordano's presence and absence were completely different situations. He needed to re-record the situation when Giordano appeared, and that would take more time …
The players did not affect Giordano's actions, and that was the only good news. Gu Fei's eyes swept across the courtyard, and he discovered that there were a few people in the fog walking towards a certain place in the courtyard. Gu Fei had an idea, and he used his binoculars to look at these people. He saw that it was the guild leader, Three Sighs of Maple, and the others. Drifting was also among them.
This guy, why does he have to join a group to fool around with? Gu Fei thought about Drifting joining the Black Hand Mercenary Group in Cloud City. For someone of his level, he naturally could join any guild or mercenary group he wanted, and a bunch of people would fight to join him. This guy was the king of job-hopping! Gu Fei.
The location where Three Sighs of Maple and the others went was just as Gu Fei expected. It was a place that Giordano had passed by. During Jourdano's stroll, he had stopped twice to interact with other NPCs. This was the third time he stopped to interact with the players, and it was probably to announce the current progress of the quest.
After this, the attention of the players faded, and Giordano continued. He stopped for the fourth time, and it was still an interaction with NPCs.
After this, Giordano turned around and directly returned to the city hall.
"Will … will there be a chance to attack?" Yan Xiaozhu saw everything clearly. Giordano walked around in a circle under everyone's gaze, so there was no chance to assassinate him.
"It's too early to say that there's no chance," Gu Fei said. From a rough observation, Giordano's route didn't have any obvious places to hide, and it seemed impossible to assassinate him without anyone noticing.
Maybe it wasn't impossible! It was just that he hadn't found it yet. Gu Fei thought like this, and he made up his mind to observe again. In the end, he began to put the items back into his pocket. Yan Xiaozhu was pleasantly surprised, "You're leaving?"
"Yes … I'll observe him the next time he appears, there's no point in observing him now," Gu Fei said.
After saying this, he took out a flying hook and hooked it on the wall, "Slide!"
"You go first!" Yan Xiaozhu still wanted to see a demonstration.
So she saw Gu Fei jump down.
"Hey! You … "Yan Xiaozhu exclaimed. In the game, there was such a thing as falling to death, and the resistance to falls varied depending on the class. In short, a Mage was definitely not a character that could resist falling, and a height of a dozen meters was enough to kill them. Yan Xiaozhu stuck her head out to see the tragedy, but she saw Gu Fei point with a finger right before he landed. His body flashed, and he disappeared from midair, landing firmly on the ground. He turned around and looked at Yan Xiaozhu, "What about me?"
Yan Xiaozhu was speechless. There were rumors that Mages' resistance to falls depended on spells, such as casting a spell that would make their body fall to the ground like a feather. Using teleportation in midair could be considered a heroic method!
Yan Xiaozhu didn't dare to jump more than ten meters, so she grabbed the rope and slid down bit by bit. Thankfully, nothing bad happened.
Gu Fei put away the flying hook, and Yan Xiaozhu asked, "What do we do next?"
"We'll observe again next time," Gu Fei said.
"Like today?" Yan Xiaozhu asked.
"Yes!" Gu Fei said.
"Maybe there are other ways," Yan Xiaozhu said.
"But we still need to collect information," Gu Fei said.
"What do you need me to find out for you?" Yan Xiaozhu asked.
"Nothing at the moment … I'll let you know if I think of anything," Gu Fei said.
"Maybe we should ask my sister for help. She knows a lot more than I do," Yan Xiaozhu said.
Gu Fei thought back to Strange Eye's analysis of him. She was clearly a clear-headed girl. Compared to Yan Xiaozhu, who was an immigrant, she should have a better understanding of Xia Fog City. Perhaps she could really be of help.
"Uh, if there's anything, I'll look for you sisters again!" Gu Fei said.
The two then said their goodbyes. Gu Fei thought about Giordano's actions, hoping to find some clues. At this time, Brother You suddenly sent him a message. "I found something!"
"What is it?" Gu Fei replied.
"There are oak forests around many major cities, but from the diary, he passed by Waterside City before he arrived at Xiayu City. So there is only one major city," Brother You said.
"Is it Shady Forest City?" Gu Fei asked.
"How do you know?" Brother You was shocked.
"Because there are a lot of trees there," Gu Fei said.
"Your way of guessing is too crude, you know …" (omitted a few hundred words)
Gu Fei directly closed the message from Brother You and sent another message. "I also have some clues."
"Why?"
As soon as Gu Fei said that, Brother You immediately asked, "Not in the mission list?"
"Yes!"
"Pfft!" Brother You also thought like a player …
