Inside the tavern, Broken Arrow and the others didn't know what to do. Ye Xiaowu was killed as soon as he left the Priest Academy. It seemed like someone had their eyes on him. There was no need to worry about who it was. The key was that he definitely couldn't send money over now.
"Let's go!" Broken Arrow gritted his teeth and led everyone out of the tavern.
"Eh, we can leave without paying? Can we? "Gu Fei kept mumbling behind them. The veterans were annoyed to death.
The tavern attendant didn't stop them. Seeing the veterans walk out, he stood by the door and loudly announced the punishment for not paying for drinks and for breaking things. Gu Fei listened very carefully because he felt that he needed to know the rules.
He didn't know if the system guards teleported here, but Broken Arrow and the others were intercepted by a large group of system guards as soon as they left the tavern. Gu Fei had also turned into a spectator, squeezing into the crowd of other players to watch the show. Normal players hadn't seen such a large group of system guards before, but Gu Fei had. Back in Luminous Village, they were trampled by such a group of guards. Although the veterans were tough, they probably couldn't do anything to this group of city guards.
Everyone was waiting to watch the show. Who knew that the city guards didn't have any intention of making a move. Broken Arrow and the others were very calm and didn't even take out their weapons. They already knew the rules from Ye Xiaowu. Only a life for a life! Everyone just owed a small debt. They didn't have to pay with their lives. The system guards were just a symbolic gesture because the owner felt that it wasn't logical to empty the players' pockets out of nowhere!
The guards announced the rules again, giving all the players a deeper understanding of the tavern's rules. After that, they began to collect fines. To make it look real, the guards came to grab people and directly searched their pockets. The veterans still didn't resist. Ye Xiaowu told them that resistance would only bring them trouble. This was all to make it look real. Everyone just had to cooperate. After all, the system guards wouldn't steal anything from their pockets.
More than a dozen people's pockets were all searched, and then the system guards announced how much fines they had forcefully collected, how much money was left, and how they would collect it. The players' horizons were truly widened.
After nearly half an hour, the system soldiers finally finished their mission and left. The veterans were finally free, and they hurriedly rushed towards the Priest Academy. Gu Fei hurriedly jumped out to stop them, shaking his head. "If we had known this would be the case, we wouldn't have had to wait so long, right? I thought we would be forced to stay in the tavern if we didn't pay! "
"Let's spar again in the future when we have time. We are in a hurry to save people." Water Breaking Arrow said with a dark face.
Gu Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Are you muddle-headed? Exchanging pointers is just a formality. Aren't we enemies? "
The veterans looked at each other in dismay. Originally, they had the advantage in numbers and felt that they were the ones taking the initiative. They could fight and retreat whenever they wanted. How did the situation reverse now? Just two people dared to take the initiative to challenge them and not let them go?
Gu Fei said. "Don't talk about me, even if I let you go now, the audience wouldn't agree."
"Well said!" There was a round of applause. The onlookers clapped until their hands were red, their impression of Gu Fei skyrocketing.
"Thank you, thank you." Gu Fei clasped his hands together in thanks.
Breaking Arrow and the others had a straightforward style, they didn't want to say anything more in this situation.
"Cover, retreat." With a single sentence, the veterans calmed down from being angered to death by Gu Fei and Gu Xian. They quickly adjusted to battle mode and split into two groups. The thieves, archers, and mobile players began to retreat while the rest stayed to deal with Gu Fei and Gu Xian.
But Gu Fei had already seen through their intentions. He swung his sword and a wall of electricity blocked the path of those who wanted to retreat and rushed towards them.
The veterans were depressed! It was this surreal thing again, they were getting more and more annoyed with it.
"Can we break through?" The veterans had never seen a wall of electricity before and wanted to try.
"No, we'll be paralyzed," Breaking Arrow said. After all, he had been with Ye Xiaowu for a long time and knew a lot about Gu Fei. "This is his wall of electricity."
The veterans had actually been taught a lesson and knew that Gu Fei knew something called "wall of electricity", but they didn't know what skill it was without seeing it. These uncles had zero knowledge of the game. Even something as common as fireball couldn't be imagined if you didn't show it to them. They were even worse than Gu Fei when he first entered the game.
"Go around." Sniper God walked to the wall with his hands in front of him. The others understood and rushed over to step on his palms. Sniper God raised his hand and the person used the momentum to jump up. He climbed up the wall in two or three steps. The whole process took less than two seconds. Then the second person, the third …
"Aiya, professional!!" Gu Fei sighed in admiration. The other side had a total of five Archers and two Thieves. By the time Gu Fei rushed over, four of them had already climbed up. The fifth person had a bit of a problem. He was a middle-aged man who was out of shape. When he tried to climb up, he was blocked by his beer belly. His beer belly was very elastic, and he almost bounced off. Fortunately, Broken Arrow and the others had already grabbed him and dragged him up.
This person felt ashamed. The others lamented, "Machine-Operated food isn't good!"
"Sigh, I have to socialize every day." This person sighed. Sniper God and the other person couldn't go up in time. He waved his hand at them. "You guys go first."
Then, Sniper God ran and pulled out his crossbow and fired at Gu Fei. To be honest, he wasn't in the mood to use the crossbow. He felt that it was too slow, but he had no choice. What else could be more like a gun?
Breaking Arrow and the others didn't hesitate and immediately retreated along the roof. Gu Fei didn't bother with the five that got lost. It was a pity that he only managed to block two people with Wall of Electricity. Wall of Electricity was the spell that consumed the most mana that Gu Fei had. He had used up almost half of it.
The rest of the veterans also spread out and found cover. They pulled out their crossbows and shot at Gu Fei and Gu Xian.
Gu Xian didn't know what to do. He was waiting for people to rush over and fight with him. In the end, they all scattered in all directions and started shooting.
"What's the meaning of this? We were hiding in the tavern, but now they're hiding? These people are quite vengeful. Petty! "Gu Xian said to Gu Fei.
The two of them weren't close. Gu Xian shouted and the veterans could hear him. Naturally, it was an internal injury! We're such a professional street fight. How did it become petty? Who's vengeful?!!
In a moment of anger, everyone's firepower was focused on Gu Xian. Pa, pa, pa.
The veterans had their reasons for moving around. The range of their crossfire was quite wide. If they really had guns in their hands, even eight Gu Xian wouldn't have been able to escape. But in the end, the game hurt them. In real life, no matter who it was, the speed of the bullets would be the same when the trigger was pulled. Even the speed of a handgun was faster than the speed of sound. In shoot-em-up movies, the heroes would often listen to the sound to avoid bullets. Wasn't that ridiculous? That was a distance of twenty to thirty meters. The bullets were faster than the sound of sound. How could they dodge when their heads exploded?
In the game, crossbows were far slower than the slowest handguns. Because everyone had different classes, different stats, and different equipment, there was a difference in firing speed. To make up for this difference, the veterans had to revise their teamwork. But they hadn't practiced to this extent yet. Everything was still based on their habits when they were soldiers. After not playing for so many years, it was inevitable that they would be rusty. In addition to the differences in the game's settings, there were many flaws in their teamwork. The crossfire that they fired felt like it was a mess and full of loopholes. One by one, they watched as Gu Xian dodged and dodged the firepower and ran behind cover to hide.
After that, the kid suddenly raised his hand and shouted, "I'm hiding here. If you want to fight me, come over yourself."
"F * ck, you're too lazy!" Gu Fei was depressed. He was still entangled with Sniper God and the other archer who hadn't escaped in time. It was a different situation when the two of them held crossbows. They were of the same class, had the same stats, and had similar equipment. Even if their firing speed wasn't as fast as a gun, at least when they worked together, they wouldn't be in a situation where one of them could shoot while the other was halfway. The two of them kept a distance from Gu Fei and attacked him from both sides, leaving Gu Fei at his wits' end. These two were archers who were as fast as him! He couldn't catch up to them by running.
Gu Fei had no choice but to dodge the attacks of the two while attacking the others. He wanted to find a close combat opponent. Seeing that Mountain Axe was hiding behind a pile of wooden barrels, he thought to himself, 'This guy is a fighter, let's go find him.'
However, Mountain Axe's thoughts were different from Gu Fei's. He was passionate about fighting because it was his best method of killing targets. It was the most powerful weapon for him to complete his mission. However, he knew that this weapon couldn't complete his mission, so of course, he wouldn't use it. If he continued to fight with Gu Fei, the other comrades who wanted to shoot at Gu Fei would have a lot of misgivings. So when he saw that Gu Fei was moving towards him, he didn't even think about it before running away.
"Sigh, why are you running too …" Gu Fei was depressed! Pulling his hair! He thought he found a bunch of good opponents to practice with, but these people didn't seem to be passionate about this sport! They just liked to hide and shoot from afar … It seemed that what the old man said was true. The most effective way to defeat an opponent was with a gun! This group of people who had killed on the battlefield clearly understood this principle.
If it was a simple race, Gu Fei wouldn't have a problem catching up to Mountain Axe. However, the others weren't just decorations. Because of the game's setting, their firepower coordination had some problems, but even if they couldn't kill Gu Fei, they could still create a lot of obstacles. Under these circumstances, there was no way for Gu Fei to catch up to Mountain Axe. Turning around to chase after the others could only result in this. He wanted to use teleportation to get close to one of them, but the veterans in the tavern were tormented by this skill. It was an insult to their intelligence to not think of Gu Fei's method. Teleportation of five to six meters! Everyone kept this number in mind. They wouldn't give Gu Fei the chance to get close to anyone.
Gu Fei was running all over the field. He hadn't been able to use a single skill for a long time, and he had even been hit by two arrows. Fortunately, they weren't shot by the two archers, so the damage wasn't that big of a deal. However, his mood was very similar to that of the veterans in the tavern.
"Control the situation. Retreat in order!" Sniper God was the most accomplished in shooting. He had completely experienced everyone's firepower coordination. If they wanted to have a style and level in the game, they needed to get used to it. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have listened to Ye Xiaowu's nonsense. He said that in the game, all professions had to cooperate, so it was best to pick a spot for each profession … If they were all Archers, the situation would be much better. Although they had control of the situation, it would be very difficult to finish off Qianli in a drunken stupor. He was only stubbornly looking for someone to kill. If he gave up on this idea and wanted to leave, everyone's firepower wouldn't be able to stop him. There was a difference in mobility! This guy's mobility was quite strong. If he had known this would happen, he would have chosen Archers. What a waste of these guys' skills … Sniper God muttered again.
The veterans obeyed and started to retreat from the one furthest from Gu Fei. The first to retreat were the two Clerics. One of them was Little Chen, who had been killed by the Sword Demon that day. As soon as he turned his head, he saw a person floating behind the other Cleric like a ghost.
"Old Wu, behind you!!!" Little Chen shouted.
The Cleric called Old Wu didn't have time to turn his head. The person behind him pressed down on his head and sent him crashing into the wall. Old Wu's skills were even worse than Little Chen's. This guy used to be a cookhouse soldier. Little Chen would sometimes go on missions with the team, but there was obviously no need to bring someone to cook for them. Therefore, Old Wu's fighting ability was really not worth mentioning. In the end, he was killed, and he didn't even have time to turn around to see who it was.
When the others turned around, Old Wu was already gone. Gu Xian was standing there happily. Everyone was going crazy. "Didn't you hide there and not come out?"
"You guys aren't young anymore. Haven't you been tricked before?" Gu Xian said disdainfully.
Gu Fei sweated. This was Gu Xian's great diversion technique. He had often been tricked like this when he was young, and he had lost a lot of extra food.
"Aren't you guys in a hurry to get to the Priest Academy? Isn't this the fastest method? "Gu Xian smiled as he charged at Little Chen. The veterans were just on guard, not letting Gu Fei get within five meters of them. Of course, they didn't have to worry about the distance between them. Little Chen and Old Wu were already preparing to retreat. The two of them were very close, and Gu Xian charged forward like a meteor. The others came to his rescue with arrows. Gu Xian didn't hide anymore. He took a few arrows and dragged Little Chen over to use him as a shield. The rest of the firepower was focused on Little Chen. Then, he casually threw Little Chen against the wall, and a pile of white light appeared. Just like that, the two Clerics took an express delivery to the Priest Academy.
"F * ck!!" Sniper God jumped up angrily and started firing at Gu Xian. Gu Xian retracted his head and hid again. He didn't forget to shout again, "I really won't come out this time."
Did anyone still believe him? Not only did the veterans not believe him, but they also organized people to surround Gu Xian. Old Lei and Old Lei, the two grenadiers, started firing again. In the end, the pile of sacks at the foot of the wall started to move. Gu Xian had crawled into the pile of sacks. He couldn't reach the sky or the ground, and his spells were wasted.
"He's trapped in his own cocoon!" Sniper God was amused by his actions. He continued to fire at Gu Fei while moving toward where Gu Xian was hiding.
There was a pile of sacks, but Gu Xian was nowhere to be seen. Everyone knew that he had piled himself up in the middle, but then it became awkward again. This was a game! These sacks couldn't be damaged by spells, and arrows couldn't penetrate them. If they wanted to attack him, they had to move the sacks.
The veterans communicated in the channel, and the four of them temporarily put down the crossbows in their hands and surrounded them. As they approached, the sacks suddenly exploded. Gu Xian punched and kicked the sacks out one by one, using them as hidden weapons. The four people who went up were at a loss. Gu Xian leaped and kicked the wall, using the same method as the Hundred Eras Strategist to fly directly to the top of the wall. He sighed and said, "Can't you just stay here for a while?"
Sniper God was furious and ordered everyone to fire, but Gu Xian, who was already on the top of the wall, took a few steps back and disappeared.
The four people who were in the sacks were indignant. They immediately went up and built a human ladder. Two of them were sent up together. As soon as they showed their heads, Gu Xian appeared again. He raised his left foot and kicked one of them down. The other was so shocked that he didn't want to go up, but Gu Xian grabbed him. Instead of pushing him down, he threw him over his shoulder and onto the roof.
The people under the roof didn't know what happened after that. They only saw another white light rise from the roof.
The firepower was too concentrated on Gu Xian, so Gu Fei had an opening. He quickly closed the distance, and the veterans couldn't react in time. Gu Fei teleported in front of one of them and slashed. The veterans were still quite skilled, so they weren't completely defenseless. With a flash, they managed to dodge the sword.
Gu Fei had expected this. He had deliberately let him dodge the sword. His left hand had already formed a Lightning Palm, and he slapped it at the gap left by the dodge.
With a push of his palm, lightning was released, but the man did not die immediately. The pushing effect of the Lightning Palm took effect at this moment, and the man was involuntarily sent flying backward, directly crashing into a brother who was standing not far behind him. Gu Fei reacted quickly and used the last bit of magic power he had left to cast another Lightning Spell. The person flew back, and it was hard to say if he could stand still. How could he dodge this? Lightning fell from the sky, and it was another white light.
At this point, Gu Fei had used up all his magic power. He saw that there was a good corner next to him, and he immediately dashed in. He took a fruit and ate it, while he poked his head out to see what the veterans were doing.
At this time, Gu Fei and Gu Xian were no longer in their sight. According to the principle of Gu Fei and Gu Xian taking the initiative, and they being passive, this was a good opportunity for them to immediately head to the Priest Academy. However, after such a blow, Gu Fei felt that they might impulsively stay and continue to fight. In the end, when he poked his head out to look, the other party was retreating in an orderly manner.
"As expected of a professional. Very calm!" Gu Fei praised. He silently looked at the route they were retreating, and didn't jump out to stop them. He seriously finished eating the apple. The advantage of people with less magic power was that they had less time to recover their magic power. Gu Fei didn't need to be perfect. He just needed to replenish his magic power and then set off. According to his calculations, although he started a little late, he still had time to go around in front of these people to intercept them again. Who asked him to be an all-agility mage?

【Butterfly Knot: Recently, people keep asking me about Gu Fei's magic power and the consumption of spells. I feel that the article has already introduced it many times! But since people keep asking, I'll calculate it for everyone. AoE spells like "Heaven's Falling Fire Wheel" and "Fire Tree" consumed more magic power than "Dual Flame Flash" under the same level of proficiency. However, because Gu Fei used "Dual Flame Flash" frequently and the other two rarely, he was very proficient in "Dual Flame Flash". Therefore, his "Dual Flame Flash" consumed a lot of magic power. It was equivalent to an AoE spell (because of the high proficiency, the power of Gu Fei's "Dual Flame Flash" was much stronger than that of ordinary mages). Therefore, Gu Fei's magic power was enough for four "Dual Flame Flash" or four AoE spells. The remaining bit was enough for a small spell like lightning or fireball. In addition, "Wall of Electricity" was equivalent to two AoE spells. The teleportation was also introduced in the article. The magic power consumption was different, and the distance to be moved was different. The maximum distance to be moved also needed nearly half of the magic power. Therefore, the magic power consumption of this skill would vary according to the situation. Well, that's about it.
