Gu Fei and Sword Demon met under the city gate, but there was no sign of the three soldiers. Gu Fei looked around and still couldn't find them.
"Where are the soldiers?" Gu Fei was puzzled.
"Did you say the wrong city gate?"
"How could that be? I'm not Yutian."
Sword Demon accompanied Gu Fei and walked around again, but there was no trace of them. He recalled, "When I came back, I didn't see the three of them on the road!"
"Where did they go?" Gu Fei scratched his head and opened the mission panel to see if there was any hint. As a result, he was stunned, "Ah, my mission failed."
"Failed?" Sword Demon suddenly realized, "No wonder the soldiers are gone." Mission failure was also a form of mission ending. Of course, the soldiers couldn't always follow Gu Fei.
"How did it fail? Can't die? "Gu Fei said.
"Maybe, look at the mission description." Sword Demon said that under normal circumstances, the mission would not fail because of the player's death. It would be stated in the mission description.
"It didn't say!" Gu Fei looked at the description in the mission panel.
"Is it a special setting for the mission during the city war?" Sword Demon said.
"That's possible …" Gu Fei could only agree with this guess. In the battle just now, besides death, Gu Fei couldn't find any reason to fail the mission.
"Go back to the place where you received the mission and see if you can still receive it." Sword Demon said.
"Well, I'll go take a look." Gu Fei responded and went to Cloud City's council hall. The council hall was still the same. This time, Gu Fei entered the Guard with familiarity. At a glance, he saw the three soldiers who had fought side by side with him. At this time, they returned to their original position without a trace. Gu Fei called out to them, but the three didn't respond. It seemed that with the end of the mission, the three soldiers had returned to a state where they had nothing to do with Gu Fei. Gu Fei carefully searched through the small group of soldiers. He could not find the soldier who had been sacrificed. Perhaps the system had replaced him with a new soldier with the same appearance. In the end, these soldiers were just a pile of data.
When the captain of the Cloud Guard saw Gu Fei this time, he didn't have the same enthusiasm as before. Instead, he looked very serious. Gu Fei went up to talk, but the NPC pulled a long face and scolded him. This intelligent NPC actually used Gu Fei's mission failure as an excuse. This was something Gu Fei didn't expect.
Gu Fei could only patiently wait for him to finish scolding. This NPC didn't mind Gu Fei's attitude at all. After completing the "scolding" procedure, he began to follow up. He gave Gu Fei a choice: do this mission again, or accept a new mission.
Gu Fei didn't hesitate and chose to do it again. As a result, the system announced that doing it again wouldn't be so easy. This time, the difficulty would be increased.
Gu Fei was puzzled. This mission was a confrontation between players. The system couldn't say whether it was difficult or not! Did the system care whether Song and Wine sent an expert or a rookie to defend? As a result, when the Guard Team Leader gave the order, Gu Fei understood. So it was waiting for him here! In the previous mission, Gu Fei was given four soldiers as helpers, but this time, he was given three. With one less helper, his strength was naturally weaker, and the difficulty was increased from a subjective point of view.
However, Gu Fei did not care about the difficulty increase at all. He didn't think that the mission would fail if he died. He was originally prepared to bring three soldiers and come back again. Now that the mission had failed, he came back to reclaim it. To Gu Fei, giving three soldiers was equivalent to running errands and wasting a little time. In his heart, he already thought that he was missing a soldier.
And the soldiers sent every time were obviously random. This group of soldiers were all dressed the same except for their faces. Their skills and strength were definitely about the same. Gu Fei brought the three he was already familiar with and asked the captain. In the end, the captain ignored him. It seemed that there was no such setting. Gu Fei could only lead his three new comrades out.
"The mission has been received again, but this time it's only given to three soldiers. Look at his design. If he fails again, he may give two next time … "Gu Fei told the Sword Demon about the process.
After listening, the Sword Demon said, "Since you can take other missions, why don't you change to another one? This mission … Our strength is a bit weak, it's not easy to complete. "
Gu Fei heard that what the Sword Demon said was true. Just now, although Song and Wine's 30 people were killed, they couldn't ignore the defense there. When Gu Fei went again, the people would definitely gather again. If it was only for the mission, it was really better to change to another one. Maybe he could get a simple one. Moreover, when Gu Fei scanned the quest description again, he discovered that the increased difficulty was not only one less soldier. This quest originally had a time limit. Now that he had accepted the quest again, the timer did not start anew. Instead, it extended the time that had just passed. Gu Fei looked at his watch. Even the blank time after he failed the mission had been included in the calculation. Previously, he had used up an hour. Now he only had one hour. If he failed this time, even if he was given a third chance, from the way the time was calculated, there was no possibility of completing it.
"But I have an idea." The Sword Demon said again.
"What?" Gu Fei asked hurriedly.
"If the player dies, the mission will be declared a failure. If we use this setting, as long as we kill the player who received this mission to Song and Wine, we can destroy their mission. This way, your mission will be considered a success." The Sword Demon said.
"Makes sense." Gu Fei nodded. "But where can I find out!" Right now, not to mention all the players over there, even if they could, Song and Wine would have already released the news.
Qianli Drunk and the Sword Demon were enemies, leading NPCs to fight against the players.
This news had indeed been spread to all the guilds that Song and Wine cooperated with. Although everyone wanted to know more, the guild leader of Song and Wine only insisted that they were attacked by Qianli Drunk and the Sword Demon. They knew that these two weren't on the same side as the players who were attacking the city. Other than that, they didn't know anything else.
This mission was accidentally received by a normal member of Song and Wine. They accidentally found an NPC called Gilkino, who was said to be a famous civil engineer. He was one of the designers and builders of Cloud City. Through the information dug out from him, they could find a way to break through the Cloud City.
Countercurrent realized that this mission would greatly affect the outcome of the final city war. There would definitely be a lot of points, so he carefully carried it out. This was because he knew very well that due to the setting of this parallel world, there were many things that directly or secretly sabotaged each other when competing in this game.
No damage immunity! It was because of this setting that Countercurrent didn't dare to leak this news. Otherwise, the opponents who were competing for points would definitely think of this idea. If they couldn't snatch the mission and couldn't get any benefits, they would try to sabotage it.
After defeating Gu Fei and the Sword Demon, Countercurrent simply handed over the command of this side to the Han Family Young Master. The Han Family Young Master was indeed the two guys' friend, but during the battle just now, he didn't go easy on them at all and gave reasonable commands. Although Song and Wine had sacrificed a lot, they didn't fail the mission after all. The Han Family Young Master's commanding ability was outstanding, and he knew these two very well. Countercurrent felt that he was the most suitable candidate. Even if these two didn't come and they encountered harassment from other guilds, Countercurrent felt that it was safe to leave it to the Han Family Young Master.
Countercurrent didn't say much about fighting Qianli's Drunk and the Sword Demon. He was afraid that the other guilds would notice that they were secretly carrying out this mission. However, he could hide it from others, but he couldn't hide it from Unsworn Sword, who had long suspected that he was up to something. Since Qianli's Drunk and the Sword Demon were enemies, why did they choose to fight against Song and Wine? Was this really a coincidence?
Unsworn Sword's guess was quite astute. He hurriedly told his guess to Reflection of Time, who had been paying attention to Song and Wine's Drunk.
Reflection of Time and his men had been searching around the west gate for a long time like a blind cat looking for a dead mouse. Under his intentional search, they actually found the depression that Song and Wine's Drunk were guarding. Song and Wine's Drunk had gathered over a hundred players there. Reigning Over The Four Seas and Song and Wine's Drunk were all old friends. Reflection of Time looked around and saw that there were quite a lot of experts in the other side, especially when he saw the Han Family Young Master drinking at the edge of the depression. This made him panic.
"Unsworn, I found it!!" Reflection of Time wasn't in a hurry to go over. At this time, he led a few people to a small forest nearby and looked around suspiciously.
"Oh? What's the situation? "Unsworn Sword hurriedly asked.
"I don't know the specifics, but Song and Wine's Drunk has quite a lot of experts here. Moreover, I can see traces of a battle. It's very likely where Qianli's Drunk and the Sword Demon came. Right, the Han Family Young Master is also here. "Reflection of Time said.
"The Han Family Young Master is also here?" Unsworn Sword was shocked when he heard this. "Qianli's Drunk and the Sword Demon … Are they trying to set a trap for us?"
Reflection of Time was startled when he heard this. The news that Qianli's Drunk and the Sword Demon were enemies was released by Against the Current, but there was no evidence at all. Every guild had asked Song and Wine about it. After all, every player had their own circle of friends, and they might know a few friends from other guilds. However, after asking, no one got any information … No, it should be said that only Reigning Over The Four Seas didn't get any information. Even if the other guilds did get any information, they wouldn't share it with others, so everyone said that they didn't know. Reflection of Time pondered.
"Why don't you keep an eye on them? If Qianli's Drunk and the Sword Demon come again, then this seems to be true. We'll take our time to think about it. " Unsworn Sword's guild chain quest this time, although he had completed the quest, he had been cheated from the start. After careful consideration, he had suffered quite a bit along the way. In the end, it was thanks to the help of the Childe Elite Group that he had completed the quest, but at the same time, he had also seen their methods. Unsworn Sword had originally thought that Reflection of Time was quite resourceful, but now he understood what it meant by there would always be a higher mountain! He was afraid. Once he had anything to do with the Childe Elite Group, he would want to be on guard from the bottom of his heart.
"Unsworn … It's not a big deal for us to wait, but think about it, Song and Wine is a quest. If we wait, once they complete the quest … I can see that the importance of this quest isn't low. We won't be able to find a quest that can compete with them, so we'll fall behind from the start. After that, we'll compete in killing enemies to earn points? Although our guild is strong, don't forget that Mages are the strongest at Song and Wine. If we're purely farming monsters, we might not be able to compete with them. "Reflection of Time said.
"This … then what do you think we should do?" Unsworn Sword said.
"Let's get someone else to do our dirty work! I'll just keep an eye on them, and you can leak this matter to the other guilds. "Reflection of Time said.
"Good idea!" Unsworn Sword's spirit rose. "Who should we leak it to? Unchung Mutsu? That guy has been suspicious of Against the Current for a long time, he even told me about it before! "
"Then we can't look for him." Reflection of Time hurriedly said, "Since this guy has already realized it, he's quite smart. Who knows what he's up to in the dark. We might not be able to hide it from him, and even if he's willing to help us, he'll definitely drag us down with him. We can't look for him."
"Then who else can we look for? Black Index Finger? I suspect this guy is colluding with Against the Current. We can't rely on him! Xiaosang? Then, who else can we look for? "Speaking of Gu Xiaosang, Unsworn Sword did not even give a reason. Was there even a need for a reason? Unsworn Sword could not bear to let Gu Xiaosang be the spear, and he was even more afraid of offending Gu Xiaosang.
Reflection of Time sighed. In his heart, Gu Xiaosang was a pretty good candidate, but why did it have to be a girl, and Unsworn Sword even took a liking to her?
Since the big guilds had no chance, he could only look for other guilds. Reflection of Time had already thought of a candidate, and then sent a message to Unsworn Sword. "Black Rose, what do you think of that guy?"
"Oh, he …" Unsworn Sword knew a few normal players, but he did know quite a few guild leaders. Although Black Rose was reduced to a meat pie and a laughing stock today, his guild "Spear and Rose" was still a Level 4 guild, and he had some strength. Based on Unsworn Sword's understanding of this person, and his enthusiasm for stealing points today, he was a good candidate.
"Oh, he, he's not bad," Unsworn Sword replied after thinking for a while.
"There's also White and Black, I think he's not bad too," Reflection of Time said.
"Him? His guild is pretty good! "Unsworn Sword said.
"That's right, and this guy just spent a lot of money to change his equipment before the currency update. Actually, he just wanted to change his color, but when the currency update came out, he was dumbfounded. Now he has nowhere to vent his anger!"
Unsworn Sword understood the meaning of Reflected Years. He meant that White and Black were currently in a stage where they had psychological problems and were more susceptible to provocation. If these two guilds worked together, they might not be able to contend against Singing To Wine, but it wouldn't be difficult to destroy Singing To Wine, which was just one of their missions. Even if there was a trap, the Four Seas Invincible Alliance could just watch quietly and reap the benefits.
