"A strange creature was killed by a player." This information was relayed to Ye Xiaowu by Unsworn Sword. Of course, Ye Xiaowu didn't have the intelligence network that these guild leaders had.
"What about Qianli Drunk?" Ye Xiaowu asked.
"We didn't catch him, but the monster was killed." Unsworn Sword looked at Ye Xiaowu with bright eyes. Since the scouts were all Agility-type, Crisscrossing's arrow formation was very outstanding, and it played a great role in the battle to destroy the monster. Unsworn Sword hoped that this was a legendary branch plot that could lead to the final ending, and hoped that Ye Xiaowu, who claimed to have knowledge, could give him some hints.
However, Ye Xiaowu was not affected by this plot at all, and continued to ask, "What's the situation at the Cloud Mine?"
"Over there? There's nothing … "Unsworn Sword said.
"Let's go over there and take a look," Ye Xiaowu said.
Unsworn Sword's eyes lit up again, and he moved closer to Ye Xiaowu and whispered, "What's over there?"
Ye Xiaowu looked at him, and just as he was about to speak, Unsworn Sword noticed that Countercurrent's three people had also come over, and he quickly looked away as if nothing had happened. The three people came over to ask about the relationship between the monster and the quest, and their eyes were full of jealousy toward Unsworn Sword. It was obvious that the major guilds knew that Crisscrossing had the upper hand in killing monsters.
"Let's go to the Cloud Mine and take a look!" Ye Xiaowu still had the same idea.
The four guild leaders nodded on the surface, and in private, they sent the speed squad to the Cloud Mine to investigate the situation. After that, they breathed a sigh of relief and looked around, and each saw three mirror-like expressions.
The speed squad didn't find anything, and the four guild leaders were all disappointed. They looked at each other, and the mirror-like expressions reappeared. The four were silent, and they continued to follow Ye Xiaowu to the Cloud Mine. This guy seemed to be very familiar with the place, and he went straight to a place as if he was going to search for something.
Sword of No Oath was always so quick-witted at certain moments. With a glance, one of his subordinates immediately understood and flew to Ye Xiaowu's side. He grinned and said, "There's no need for you to come here. What are you looking for? I'll do it! "
Against the Current's reaction was actually not slow, but Fan Ziling, who understood his intention, lacked that kind of indomitable temperament. By the time he moved forward quickly, Sword without Oath's subordinates had already rushed to Ye Xiaowu's feet and finished their lines. Unchung Mutsu and Black Index Finger's reactions were a little slower, and they quickly sent people after them. One of them shouted, "Let me do it", and the other shouted, "I'm good at rough work". Two figures flew out, and Fan Ziling was left behind.
Ye Xiaowu stared blankly, only to see a big hole was quickly dug in front of her, big enough to bury her alive. At this time, the four presidents came over and asked Ye Xiaowu, "What are you looking for?"
"There should have been something, but now it seems that Qianli Yizui and the others have already taken it." Ye Xiaowu said.
Unsworn Sword was furious. He turned around and looked for the player who had been doing the quest. "There's an important situation here. Why haven't we discovered it yet?"
The players were speechless. They really did not expect to dig out a quest here.
"What should we do next?" the four presidents asked Ye Xiaowu.
"We can only continue to stop them." Ye Xiaowu sighed.
Gu Fei left the three people behind and returned to the main city in the clouds, heading straight for the meeting hall. When he entered the door, he saw Drifting and the other two wandering around.
"Why are you back? Did you break through the quest? "Drifting asked.
"I'm still researching it. What are you doing here? "Gu Fei asked.
"Let's see if there are any quests posted here! You know, normal people can't come in, "Drifting said.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?" Gu Fei patted his head.
"Hehe." Drifting laughed.
"Go ahead." Gu Fei hurriedly said goodbye and went straight to the guard room. He didn't know how many times he had been here, so he didn't hold back anymore. He kicked the door open and rushed to the captain. He took out the necklace and went straight to the point. "Gilkino's assistant died, and this was left behind. Who is Courtney? Where is she? "
"Dead?" The captain was startled. "Did she leave anything behind?"
"Isn't it right here?" Gu Fei waved the necklace in front of the captain's eyes. He was angry at the guy's attitude of ignoring him.
The captain took the necklace and looked at it. He put it to the side and asked, "Did she leave anything behind?" This time, he added the word "still". The system's thinking was still somewhat logical.
"There were some notes. The contents of the notes said that there was a woman called Courtney who was very close to Gilkino. Maybe she could help us," Gu Fei said.
"Courtney? I've never heard of this name. Let me check. What is her full name? "the captain said.
"I don't know!" Gu Fei was angry. He felt that the system was deliberately testing the patience of the players. It was rare for the system to help them find someone, but it was deliberately making things difficult for them. It seemed that the parallel world was also trying its best to make "finding someone" an activity that was the most unpopular among the players.
The captain, who was angrily scolded by Gu Fei, showed the qualities of an NPC. He didn't get angry and patiently sat in front of the table. He took a piece of paper and wrote down a few things before handing it to Gu Fei. "Go to the archive room on the first floor and find Caiqin from the census. She will help you."
Gu Fei approached the paper and saw that it was a note from Leader Zhang. He was so depressed that he wanted to die. But what else could he say to an NPC? He could only do as he was told. He took the note and went to the archive room on the first floor.
The archive room was guarded by guards. Gu Fei showed the note before he was let in. Caiqin, Gu Fei was looking for an NPC with this name. It sounded like a beautiful girl, but when he found her, Gu Fei was taken aback. It was an old lady with a strange face and a pair of strange glasses. After seeing the note in Gu Fei's hand, she threw five thick and large sheepskin books to Gu Fei.
"Just give me Cloud City's." Gu Fei said.
"Do you think I have anything that isn't from Cloud City?" Auntie Caiqin's words weren't polite at all.
Gu Fei shivered. How could there be so many NPCs in Cloud City? He didn't understand. Could it be that the players were also counted? Trembling, Gu Fei flipped to the next page. Sure enough, the sheepskin book included the names of players. Gender, class, and level were all indicated. Gu Fei immediately thought of the Assassin's Alliance's intelligence department. However, the Assassin's Alliance still required players to gather information. Here, however, with the protection of the system, Gu Fei didn't need to put in any effort. But it seemed that if it wasn't for the captain's note, he, as a member of the Guard, wouldn't be able to casually find information from here. I wonder if there's an archive room in the faction …
Gu Fei flipped a few pages while his imagination ran wild. He quickly found that the names were arranged alphabetically, which made him feel very gratified. As he muttered Courtney's name, Gu Fei flipped to the K-word index. However, after searching for the names of several NPCs, he realized that NPCs were not like players, who came up with random codenames. The real names of NPCs all had first and last names. Some of them even looked incredible, and this alphabetical arrangement was based on last names.
Courtney was definitely not a last name. It was hard to imagine two lovers calling each other by last names. Gu Fei was going crazy. This meant that the alphabetical arrangement was of no help to him, so he could only search page by page. Five books … Gu Fei's eyes were getting dimmer and dimmer. Suddenly, he thought of Drifting and the other two brothers. Three more people could triple his speed! Gu Fei quickly messaged Drifting and asked him to come to the archive room on the first floor. Gu Fei wanted to call more people, but on second thought, other than him and the other two brothers, no one else could enter the hall.
"What's the matter?" Drifting asked in the message.
"Do me a favor," said Gu Fei.
"Quest?"
"Of course."
Drifting and the other two rushed over excitedly. Gu Fei was wondering if he should team up with the three of them and share the approval, but the three of them came in without any hindrance.
"How can you just come in?" Gu Fei was surprised.
"What else?" said Drifting.
Gu Fei showed him his note, and Drifting nodded. "Oh," he said, "So, the archive room is open to our camp! We didn't know. It should be a problem of camp. We are the Wanderer's Association, and we travel around the world. We contributed to the establishment and perfection of the archive. "
"You guys contributed to the mess, right? You changed your household registration and caused so much trouble for the census auntie, "said Gu Fei.
"Pfft." Drifting didn't care. "What's the matter?"
Gu Fei pointed at the five sheepskin books on the table. "I'm looking for someone named Courtney."
"Oh my god!" Drifting was a frequent visitor to the archive room, so he knew how scary it was to search for information on NPCs in the census office.
"What's worse is that Courtney is a first name, not a last name," said Gu Fei.
Drifting sneered. "That's a lucky thing. If it's a last name, it'll be a tragedy. Think about what would happen if you found a player with the last name Li."
Gu Fei thought about it. That was true. Last names were more likely to be repeated than first names, and there were benefits to knowing first names. He felt a little comforted. He waved his hand and asked the three to get to work.
Since the three of them were here, they didn't waste any time. They each picked up a book and started to search. Drifting looked carefully and took out a pen to write on the book. He asked Gu Fei, "Is it Courtney or Courtney?"
"Courtney." Gu Fei pointed and asked, "Can I write on the book?"
"The system will fix it." He was indeed experienced in drifting, but Gu Fei could see the painful expression on his face. He believed that he must have learned a painful lesson. For example, when he was looking up information, he took out a pen to make some notes or something, preparing to use it later, but it was fixed by the System.
The four of them talked and started to search together. It wasn't too slow. After all, a player's ID was very different from a normal name. It was easy to scan. The NPC's name was also very eye-catching.
"If a new person is born, the information will be updated at any time, right? Will it mess up the pages? "Gu Fei asked.
"Look, all the players with information are above level ten, so they won't be recorded when they are born," Drifting said.
"It's the same if they are recorded at level ten. They can reach level ten in the blink of an eye," said Gu Fei.
"The problem is that you are looking for an NPC, not a player. Do you think it will affect the information?" Drifting said.
"Will players also have such a name?" Gu Fei asked.
Drifting moved his book over, pointed to a name, and asked Gu Fei, "Do you think a player will name himself Ryan Francis Bryant?"
Gu Fei looked at the long list of names and said, "It's hard to say …"
@ # $% &
Drifting left without a word and focused on looking for Courtney. He didn't talk to Gu Fei anymore.
Only the sound of books flipping could be heard in the archive room. Finally, there was movement from Left Hand. "I found one."
"Oh?" Gu Fei hurried over. The name was Courtney Green, but the information showed that Courtney was only 13 years old. She was a flower seller in the central square.
"So that little girl has a name." Drifting nodded. He had seen a little girl selling flowers in the central square.
"That's not what I'm looking for," said Gu Fei.
"Then?"
"She's a civil engineering student," Gu Fei said. "At least she's old enough to fall in love."
Drifting looked at the information of the flower seller. "Student, in love … Which part doesn't match? Maybe she's selling flowers for a part-time job. "
"13 years old!" Gu Fei emphasized.
"She's at the age of first love," Drifting sighed.
Gu Fei spat out a mouthful of blood. "Let's write down this page number and keep looking!"
The three of them had no choice but to continue searching. There was more than one person named Courtney. In the end, there were a total of four people, and Courtney, who was clearly marked as a student of the civil engineer Gilkino, was the last to be discovered. Her full name was Courtney Zola, and the Z part was at the end.
"Okay, this is it." Gu Fei took the information and read it carefully. Courtney Zola, 28 years old, one of the students of the civil engineering master Gilgino. When she was a student, her lover died in a major project in Cloud City. She was sad and ended her civil engineering career. She became a forest caretaker near Yunjiao Lake.
"This is it? A female forest caretaker? "Drifting asked.
"That's her. Yunjiao Lake? I don't think I've seen it before. "Gu Fei was confused.
"Oh? You go there often? " Although Drifting was not from Cloud City, he had lived in Cloud City and knew what Yunjiao Lake was like.
"I'm going to continue with my mission. You guys continue with your work. Thank you!" Gu Fei was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He quickly turned back and almost bumped into the three people behind him.
"What's wrong?" the three asked.
"What project is mentioned here? Can we find it in the archives?" Gu Fei said.
"Should be able to." Drifting nodded. He was familiar with the layout of the archives, so he led Gu Fei to the section that specialized in construction projects. Gu Fei asked the NPC to check it, but he was rejected.
"Let me do it!" Drifting walked forward and said the same thing as Gu Fei. The NPC gave him the information without hesitation. Gu Fei moved forward to read it, but the NPC ignored him. System, system …
"Damn, this Gilgino has guided a lot of projects. Which one is it?" Drifting was depressed.
"Yunjiao Lake," Gu Fei said.
"Then it's this one." Drifting pointed. "Yunjiao Lake Bottom Water Storage and Drainage Project."
Gu Fei quickly browsed through the content, but he didn't find anything special. The description of the project was just a general explanation and boast. It praised that this project perfectly solved the problem of drinking water and sewage discharge in Cloud City. It was a project that had the highest public support and satisfaction in Cloud City. In the process of boasting, there was no mention of any casualties in this project.
"Is there anything else?" Gu Fei asked.
Drifting continued to browse. The number of projects wasn't as large as the number of people, so he quickly finished. He shook his head and said, "There's nothing else about Yunjiao Lake."
"Then it seems like it's this one," Gu Fei said.
"Probably."
Gu Fei nodded. This search gave him an idea. He wanted to go to the census department to find information about Gilgino and Angus. But he knew that if he mentioned this again, Drifting and the other two would fight him to the death. Thinking that the two dead people might not have any clues, Gu Fei decided not to waste time here. He quickly left.
As he left the city, he quickly contacted the other three and told them about the information he found.
"The project mentioned in the quest is undoubtedly the Yunjiao Lake Bottom Water Storage and Drainage Project, but there's no information about any casualties. But in Courtney's information, it clearly states that her lover died in a certain project. This person should be Angus, but in fact, Angus isn't dead, right? "Gu Fei analyzed.
"We have to find Courtney. The information says that she's a forest watcher near Yunjiao Lake, but I don't think I've seen her," Gu Fei said.
"A forest watcher? Maybe she's an active NPC. You don't go to Yunjiao Lake often, do you? It's not strange that you haven't seen her, "Xi Xiaotian said.
"Uh, who goes there often?" Gu Fei thought about it and asked in the guild chat if anyone was familiar with Yunjiao Lake.
No one said anything. Yunjiao Lake was a place that only people who were in love would be familiar with. This was a private matter, and no one wanted to admit it.
"What do you want?" July asked Gu Fei in private.
"There's an NPC over there, and I want to confirm if anyone knows," Gu Fei said. "Is there a girl in love in the guild?"
"I'll ask for you!" July said. It was obvious that there were girls like that in the guild, but Gu Fei didn't want to be exposed.
Gu Fei just wanted to know the result, so he didn't care. He just urged July to hurry. The four of them had already taken a detour to Yunjiao Lake.
"I asked. There's a forest watcher in the forest near Yunjiao Lake. Sometimes she walks by the lake. It's a female NPC. Is it the one you're looking for? "July asked.
"That's her! Thank you so much! "Gu Fei was filled with emotion. The power of the masses was endless.
"The information has confirmed that there's a female forest watcher by Yunjiao Lake. I believe it's Courtney. We'll go meet her now, but we have to be discreet. We have reason to believe that the area around Yunjiao Lake is filled with traps," Gu Fei said.
"Let's not take the main road to Yunjiao Lake. Let's go around the mountain path and observe from above," Xi Xiaotian said.
"I should've borrowed Mang Mang's binoculars earlier. Why didn't I think of that?" Gu Fei was depressed.
