Gu Xian jumped into the pile of tables and squinted to see Gu Fei, who was also hiding under a table. The pile of tables was like the Great Wall, protecting the two of them. On the other side of the Great Wall were Broken Arrow and the others, who were furious. Go and search! They were afraid that Gu Fei would suddenly appear from a corner and kill them. If they didn't go, only Old Thunder and Dalei's grenades were a threat, but they often hit the wrong place.
"Deal with that one first. He can't teleport! Cover him and get ready to charge! " Broken Arrow said. Old Thunder and Dalei responded and started throwing grenades. The two of them took turns to use spells to burn Gu Xian's hiding place into a sea of fire. Gu Xian didn't know how to teleport, so it was impossible for him to move silently like Gu Fei. Water Breaking Arrow and the others were keeping a close eye on the movement over there. Even the slightest movement of the bench and the table wouldn't escape their eyes.
"They're moving over there!!!" Sniper God was indeed a sniper. He had the sharpest eyesight. He immediately saw the slight movement of the chairs and tables and pointed at it to warn everyone. Of course, in order not to expose their intentions, they wouldn't shout it out. They would only send messages in the channel.
The others also saw the movement in the direction that Sniper God was pointing, but it soon stopped. Obviously, the other side didn't want to make too much noise to attract attention. The seasoned soldiers communicated with hand signals and decided on a plan. Old Thunder and Dalei continued to bombard the original position, while the others slowly approached the direction of the movement …
"Be careful, they saw you!!!" At this time, someone shouted from the crowd. Gu Fei and Gu Xian, who were hiding under the tables, might not know the seasoned soldiers' diversion, but the audience outside could see it clearly. Although they couldn't understand their hand signals and didn't know what they were talking about in the channel, they could finally see their intentions when they finally started to move.
The seasoned soldiers were very depressed. This was the consequence of not clearing the field during a mission! There were many people in the audience. They didn't know who shouted, so they could only stare helplessly.
With such a troublemaker, the seasoned soldiers had to speed up their actions. The people who rushed forward stopped tiptoeing and immediately rushed to their destination. Old Thunder and Big Thunder suddenly changed the direction of their attacks and each threw a spell in the area where everyone was charging. From these two spells, it could be seen that although these two were not good at games, they were quite proficient in things related to their skills. For example, after these two spells were thrown out like missiles, they didn't hurt their own people at all. The range of the spells completely covered the designated area.
A group of people charged through the area as if they were overturning chests and cabinets, but they were once again dumbfounded. The pile of tables was clearly empty.
"Impossible, I'm not seeing things!" Sniper God was shocked, but he believed what he was seeing.
"Fortunately, you have such good eyesight." A voice rang out beside them. Gu Fei and Gu Xian suddenly charged out together. With his teleportation, Gu Fei's position was erratic. The seasoned soldiers didn't dare to hope that they could pinpoint his position. However, the place where he appeared was exactly where he was. It turned out that he hadn't moved at all. He had only used some unknown method to create a slight movement here.
"We've fallen for their diversion!" The seasoned soldiers cried. They had wanted to create a diversion, but they didn't expect to fall for their opponent's diversion from the start.
The two people who had rushed out from the pile of tables didn't attack the people who had come to find trouble with them. Instead, they rushed to the left and right of the tavern's two entrances.
Gu Fei swung his sword horizontally, and the Dual Flame Flash, which spun 720 degrees, floated over. The seasoned soldiers knew that Gu Fei's spell damage was abnormally high. They might die if they touched it, so they didn't dare to go straight for it. They could only helplessly choose to retreat. Some people wanted to see if there was an opening to capture Gu Fei, but they saw that Gu Fei's circle was extremely smooth. The flames burned all over his body, and he resisted even more than the Resistance Ring of Fire. When the flames were gone, Gu Fei had already turned and left the tavern.
On the other side, Gu Xian was even more carefree than Gu Fei. After running out from the pile of tables, he casually borrowed a chair from the side and put his leg on it. Then, he directly flew over the heads of the two people guarding the door. How could the two let him go so easily? They both reached out to grab him, but Gu Xian, who was flying in a straight line, suddenly landed vertically in mid-air. He kicked the person on the right and grabbed the person on the left. With a swing of his hand, he threw the person on the back at the pursuers, and then he himself dashed out of the door.
"This … this …" The players who watched the two of them fight were dumbfounded. The seasoned soldiers were skilled in real combat, but their understanding and usage of in-game skills were relatively weak. They couldn't compare to many ordinary players. At this time, the Mage players were amazed at the rippling effect of the Dual Flame Flash that Gu Fei had just used before he left the door, while the Grandmaster of Combat players were shocked at the skill that Gu Xian used when he rushed out.
Gu Xian stepped on the chair and jumped out. In fact, it was not a normal jump. During the jump, he also used the Grandmaster of Combat's Galloping Meteor. Halfway through, he canceled the skill with Precision and used Flying Swallow Slash, which resulted in the sudden fall. After that, the Body Hugging Throw looked normal to the ordinary players, but the one who was thrown out had a deeper understanding of it. The grab coincided with the angle at which he rushed up, so he couldn't dodge at all.
Seeing the two of them escape just like that, the seasoned soldiers were extremely depressed. Sniper God, who had made the wrong judgment because of his good eyesight, was even angrier. At this time, he looked at the original hiding place of Gu Xian for a moment and suddenly said, "Old Lei and Dalei kept bombarding this place. If that guy didn't move, how is he not dead? How much HP does he have? "
This question was very in-game. None of the people present were familiar with game data, so they were momentarily stumped. Water Breaking Arrow, who had the most experience in the game, also felt that this question should not have been answered. At that time, Old Lei and Dalei had thrown a number of spells at this place. Indeed, no matter who hid here and did not move, it should be enough to exhaust their HP.
Everyone was struggling with this question. Water Breaking Arrow even sent a message to Ye Xiaowu for advice, but he heard someone in the crowd laughing. At this time, the excitement was over, and the onlookers were all enjoying the embarrassment of this group of people after they failed. It was like a funny ending left after the climax of a blockbuster film, and it would be a pity if they didn't watch it.
The onlookers were discussing the battle just now, and the guy who had laughed, glanced at the seasoned soldiers, pointed at the place where Gu Xian was hiding, and explained to the people around him. As soon as Water Breaking Arrow and the others saw this person's position, they knew that the group of people there could have seen Gu Xian's hiding place just now.
The veterans could also see that the spectators didn't have a good impression of them because they had the advantage in numbers. If they directly went up to ask, they might be rebuffed. After Water Breaking Arrow signaled with his eyes, a Thief tacitly understood. He activated Stealth and went up to scout. While listening to the discussion of the players on the other side, he quickly broadcast it to everyone in the channel.
Hearing the truth, the seasoned soldiers vomited blood again. It turned out that Gu Xian's hands and feet were hooked onto the table in mid-air when he attacked with the spell. In this way, the Heaven Falling Fire Wheel that fell from the sky was blocked by the table, and the Flaming Tree Thousand Layers Flame that ignited on the ground was not hurt because he did not touch the ground.
"This, this, this … is shameless!!!" Old Thunder and Big Thunder were speechless after hearing this answer. They were not young anymore, but in the end, they used such a childish word as "shameless."
The others could only smile bitterly and look at each other. Now they completely understood that the game was a game, and the reality was reality. Not to mention teleportation, now he could block the seemingly arrogant spell attack with a broken table, and when Gu Xian left, he could ignore the physical inertia and fall straight down with one skill canceled. These were all impossible things in reality!
"A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit. Everyone, learn well!" Water Breaking Arrow said.
"Old Broken Arrow, you played longer than us!" Someone said.
"I'm old, not like young people …" Water Breaking Arrow said.
"Sigh, it seems that we are really old." Everyone was very depressed. They were just a group of retired veterans, and although the game could allow them to regain the physical strength and skills they had when they were young, they were helpless when it came to accepting new things on a spiritual level. This might be the sorrow of old people, as it was always easier for young people to learn new things.
"Let's retreat first!" The seasoned soldiers were about to leave dejectedly, but at this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open. Gu Fei poked his head in, looked at them and said, "What are you doing? You still haven't come out after such a long time. "
The seasoned soldiers were stunned and looked at the crowd. From Gu Fei's words, did he mean that he was waiting for them outside the door? Didn't they have a hard time rushing out of the tavern?
"You, you …" The seasoned soldiers didn't know what to ask.
"Come out quickly. Fighting inside the house is a hindrance. Let's fight outside." Gu Fei said.
"Good boy! I'm starting to admire you!! " Sniper God was immediately energized. He rolled up his sleeves and was ready to fight again. However, before he could even take two steps, a person flashed in front of him and stopped him. After saying a few words, Sniper God's eyes widened, "What? Compensation?? "
After saying this, he circled around the person and looked him up and down. In the end, he asked, "Are you an NPC?"
The NPC had probably never met such a low IQ question in his life. This was very different from the high AI they were promoting, so he was momentarily stunned. On the other hand, the crowd was already roaring with laughter. Of course it was an NPC. Who didn't know the NPC in the tavern?
Water Breaking Arrow smiled bitterly. His brothers were all dragged into the game to help him. Once they entered, they crazily leveled up in the wilderness. Other than that, they did a few group quests under Ye Xiaowu's organization. The NPCs were all handled by Ye Xiaowu. His brothers just ran around and killed monsters. Their game life was very monotonous, so they didn't have much interaction with NPCs. This was even the first time they came back to the tavern.
Water Breaking Arrow didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed by Sniper God's joke. Instead, he felt apologetic. There was a lot of content in the game, but his brothers only cared about killing monsters and leveling up. They really neglected a lot of fun. They were all doing it to help him.
"Yes, you have to pay." Water Breaking Arrow patted Sniper God's shoulder.
"How much? I don't have any money. " Sniper God had a shameless expression on his face. Water Breaking Arrow immediately recalled how he used to play cards with his comrades. In theory, gambling was strictly forbidden, but in private, everyone would bet on it. Every time this guy lost, he would act like a scoundrel and refuse to admit it.
"This money … You might have to pay a lot!" Gu Fei was still sticking his neck out at the door and interrupted after seeing what was happening. He was an expert in this area. He had been in and out of many taverns during the Wanted Quest. Flipping tables and kicking chairs was a common occurrence. Gu Fei didn't know the rules of the system, but most of the time, he was the one asking for compensation. Like Little Ray's Bar, which was run by players, it was fine. They just needed to help tidy up the place and give them a small amount of money. The other side wouldn't make things too difficult for them. When players wanted to do business, they needed to be friendly. However, when it came to a tavern owned by the system, not a single copper could be spared. There was no way they could be accommodated.
Gu Fei's attacks were quick, accurate, and ruthless. Killing people usually didn't cause too much of a commotion. His highest record was flipping three tables. However, the veterans were now very powerful. They cleaned up the entire tavern. Moreover, this tavern was very big. There wasn't a tavern this big in Cloud City. If they had to pay for it, even Gu Fei couldn't estimate how much it would cost.
"How much?" The group of players didn't care about Gu Fei anymore. They all asked Sniper God if the NPC was talking to him! In fact, they still had a lot of questions. For example, if they were to PK again and everyone died at the revival point, would the NPC chase them to the revival point to ask for money? For example, if they forcefully left the game and never came back, wouldn't the money become a bad debt?
"How much … I forgot. How much?" Sniper God asked the NPC again.
"3,216 gold, 14 silver, 54 copper," the NPC announced.
The players all booed. They didn't expect the system to be so dark. They didn't know how these bits and pieces of money were calculated. This time, everyone sympathized with the veterans. How could they feel good after offending the system? These people didn't look like rich people. They didn't know if they could come up with 3,000 gold. What would happen if they couldn't? No one had encountered this kind of situation before. They started a heated discussion.
"Who has money?" Sniper God asked.
Everyone looked at the ceiling. Once they entered the game, they only cared about leveling up. How could they have money? Money from killing monsters? That small amount of money in copper was now seen as trash by the players. Many people didn't even bother to pick it up.
Some of the more sinister players saw Gu Fei mingle with the group of people as if nothing had happened. They became suspicious and wondered if this guy had shamelessly schemed against these poor players. Hating the rich was a common trait in many people. Suddenly, some people who thought of this began to dislike Gu Fei.
"What do we do if we don't have money? Can we walk? "Gu Fei continued to stretch his neck and ask.
"You …" Everyone was speechless.
3,000 gold was definitely a huge amount of money. If it was a few days ago, Gu Fei would have thought so too. But now, even though he only casually carried a few bags of money, as long as it was in the thousands, it was no longer in his sight. Seeing that these people didn't have money, Gu Fei randomly pulled out a bag of gold and threw it in. "Pay up first!"
"…" Everyone was speechless again. The bag of money was thrown at Sniper God. Before he could think, the bag was already in front of him. He caught it and realized that everyone was staring at him. Sniper God hurriedly raised his hand and threw the bag back. "There's no need for that."
The eyes of the spectators almost fell out of their sockets. They couldn't figure out the relationship between the two parties. Enemy? The enemy was willing to give a few thousand gold to someone else so easily?
"Take it. I've been rich lately. I have more money than I can use," Gu Fei said and threw it back. When it came to getting rich, most people would say it in a low-key and humble manner. However, not only did Gu Fei not do so, he even described it as' too much to use up '. He simply looked like a nouveau riche. It was true that he did not take money seriously, but in the eyes of the public, his image was being ruthlessly ruined by himself.
The bag of money flew back and Sniper God caught it again. Before his brothers could stare at him, he quickly threw it back and said firmly, "There's no need."
Gu Fei scratched his head. "Then what do we do?"
The veterans were going crazy. "You don't have to worry about that, do you?"
"I've been waiting for you for a long time," Gu Fei said.
"Come in, we'll fight here," the veterans said.
"I can't use it, and I have to pay for messing things up," Gu Fei said.
At the mention of paying, the veterans' eyes dimmed again. They didn't even have an explanation for this! Water Breaking Arrow immediately messaged Ye Xiaowu to explain the situation. Ye Xiaowu was on his way here and could take out the three thousand gold. Water Breaking Arrow finally sighed in relief. But when Ye Xiaowu asked about the situation, Water Breaking Arrow really didn't know what to say. What to say? Tell him that Gu Fei had run away but was now back. He was leaning against the door and chatting with them. Did he still want to borrow money from them?
When the onlookers saw that this seemed to be going on, some of them who were about to leave stopped in their tracks. But there were still some people who ran to the outside of the tavern. They felt that these two didn't really want to fight with this group of people outside. They must have already set up some kind of trap. But when they came out and walked around, they saw the Grandmaster of Combat squatting outside. Other than that, they didn't see anything else.
"Could there be a large number of Bandits hiding?" The onlookers muttered. Some continued to look around, and some returned to the tavern.
While they were wasting time, a bystander suddenly rushed in from outside the tavern. He glanced at the veterans and wanted to say something but didn't dare. Instead, he turned to his friends and announced loudly, "The Cleric is back, but just as he reached the door, he was caught by the Grandmaster of Combat and killed."
"What!!!" Water Breaking Arrow and the others were stunned. What did this mean? It seemed like they were stuck in the tavern and couldn't leave, and their supplies had been cut off?
Just as they were wondering what to do, Gu Xian also pushed the door open and came in. He said unhappily, "Why aren't they out yet?"
"Why did you kill Hongchen Yixiao again?" Gu Fei asked.
"I ran him to death!" Gu Xian said, and then asked, "Is this far from the Priest Academy?"
"Not far." Someone answered. Gu Xian's face was full of disappointment.
"If you are so resentful and want to go back, I can actually help you." Gu Fei suddenly said.
"Oh? What do you have in mind? "Gu Xian asked quickly.
"I'll kill you." Gu Fei said.
