Duan Qing's plan is actually very simple, which is to disguise himself and the people on his side to infiltrate the bodyguard team of Volavos. After this experiment of pretending to be noble colleagues, he felt that the team members should be infiltrated into the entourage.
The idea inside should also be feasible because NPCs in the free world cannot directly identify players' identities. Players pretending to be the identity of the NPC camp has also been one of the means to deal with NPCs for a period of time. As long as it is paired with sufficient acting skills and
Under the condition that "the other party does not have the same players present", the disguise plan can often be implemented smoothly. The main reason why this method of deception has not become popular later is that more and more players have become eligible to join various forces.
Because of the camp, on the one hand, they can easily distinguish the identity of the player from the natives of the virtual world through ID, and on the other hand, it is also because they who have joined the camp no longer need such deliberate disguise. In a very small probability,
Some players will also encounter fake commissions with similar requests like Volavos during the adventure, but such commissions are often quickly discovered by other players, and the employer is frustrated by the inexplicable and unknown results.
The halberd sank into the sand.
But Duan Qing still has such confidence, just because the ultimate disguise method he possesses is slightly different from other players.
"This is the substitute potion I just developed."
In the early morning of February 18, 796 in the New Calendar of the Free World, Duan Qing's team once again gathered on a street in the Thebilis Castle, but this time they followed Volavos behind him and secretly
The mission of protection has finally changed a little: "It is said to be a substitute potion, but it is actually an improved version of the illusion potion with projection magic added. After drinking it, the illusion of your body will be projected by the magic added to the potion.
To a place some distance away."
"The illusion will act according to the way you move. Just imagine yourself as a copy of yourself more than ten meters away." He waved the potion bottle in front of everyone: "The only advantage is that the ID projection illusion will not
Display the player's name."
"If a player discovers the secret, I'm afraid they will see through it immediately." Playing with the same bottle of potion in his hand, Gedman said in a low voice: "What's more, our appearance is on the territory of the castle.
It has been publicized for a while, and the possibility of being recognized directly is very high..."
"It doesn't matter, this method shouldn't last long." Duan Qing put away the bottle of potion in his hand: "And our goal is not to make it impossible for all players to see through, as long as we can confuse those potential attackers for a moment.
That’s it.”
"Have we identified the attacker as a player?" Chao Ri Dongsheng on the other side raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it the knife thrower from before?"
"It's very possible that they are from Wings of Freedom." Leaning against the wall in the corner with her arms folded, a white-haired woman named Xue Ling Huan Bing said in a low voice: "Except for me, they told everyone here
They should all be in a state of strangers, so as long as you use a substitute potion to blend in and be able to step forward at the critical moment..."
"It's still a very clumsy method." Rubbing his chin, Goldman looked up at Duan Qing's face: "Is there no other way?"
"Even with this method, we can't persist for a long time." Duan Qing also shook his head and replied: "But it doesn't matter, according to our previous series of investigations..."
"They probably won't have to wait too long."
In the background of people passing by this street, the figures belonging to this team of players gradually disappeared into the passing figures that kept passing by like a tide. The traveling team led by the fat noble of the empire also appeared later.
He walked to the other end of the corner of this street, and gradually moved towards the south of the Thebilis Castle, accompanied by the usual tall horses and the loud noises in the sky. He still maintained his arrogant and domineering appearance, walking in the middle of the team.
Volavos directed the surrounding bodyguards in black to disperse the surrounding crowds, and then when he was about to pass the next intersection, he turned his attention to a subordinate who had just approached: "Immediately
We are about to reach Kenarek Street, my lord, shall we continue moving forward?”
"Go ahead and visit Sir Redick." He raised his hand like a hero, and the fat noble pointed towards the south of this intersection in the way of pointing to the country: "What are you worried about? Just follow the schedule."
"But..." the bodyguard in black said hesitantly: "I heard that the recent situation is a bit unsafe. The Imperial Army just issued a warning to us yesterday..."
"Do you listen to those silly geese, or do you listen to my orders?" Volavos waved his hand indifferently: "Besides, even if someone really wants to threaten our safety..."
"The nobles of the empire will never bow to such a threat."
Having said these words righteously, Volavos, who showed firmness in his white body, calmly glanced at the figures following him at the end of the team, and then looked at the people around him who were still there.
Amid the side glances that kept coming his way, he continued to walk slowly toward the far end of the city. The figures he had identified repeatedly followed him closely as he expected, but their forward movements were
It seemed a bit stiff, and Duan Qing and others, who were the entities of these "figures", were walking at the same speed in an alley not far from Kenares Street: "It feels like this way
It's still a bit stupid, we are too close to them now, and we will be discovered if we are not careful."
"It's already great to be able to prepare a potion with this effect in a short period of time. What more do you want? After this experiment is successful, I will go back and continue to improve the properties of the medicine."
"By the way, how long does this bottle of substitute potion last?"
"have no idea."
"What? I don't know? What if it disappears suddenly?"
"It's just right that it disappeared. Please help me remember how long it lasted."
"...In other words, we are actually the first batch of experimenters?"
"Don't worry, when the official version of the potion is released in the future, I will share the money sold with you. The premise is that you will still be members of this team in the future, and you will continue to be my free trial subjects... Well
.”
The deliberately muted discussion among each other suddenly stopped as Duan Qing raised his hand. Along with it, there were several people who kept walking and leaned out of the next intersection, passing through the same cross-street road.
Several people also took advantage of this rare opportunity to look at the situation of the large-scale parade not far away from them: "Others are still avoiding them from a distance. This fat man is really not welcome."
.”
"If it were me, I wouldn't give this arrogant fat man a serious look... Well, a fully armed team appeared. Are they city guards?"
"Stop, look ahead and don't move."
"It takes so long to say hello...forget it, let's just observe the situation around us."
Standing side by side at the entrance of an alley not far from the stopped team, Duan Qing, who spoke in a low voice, then focused his attention on the fat noble who was greeting the city guard: "This posture..."
The posture is very standard and the movements are very capable. He should be a real city guard.
There are two other teams of players passing by, but they also look like they don't want to get close to them.
There are two stalls set up by vendors ahead, which may be the target of a disguised ambush, but... they seem to be too timid, and they have already started running away before the team comes over.
Is there anything more suspicious? Strange, did they give up today?
Recalling the investigation results of the past few days and the conclusions reached by the team all night long in his mind, Duan Qing frowned slightly as he looked around, and then a subtle sound of breaking through the air sounded in his ears.
A familiar voice in his memory quickly coalesced: "Coming!"
laugh!
The harsh friction sound was like a sharp blade being unsheathed, flying straight down from above the team that had just passed by the city guards. The arrows with murderous intent and the air waves raised did not move towards the team.
The fat nobleman riding on the tall horse flew away, but passed directly through the eyebrows of the figure who looked like a gray-robed magician at the end of the team. The wavy lines then flew into the naked eye as the sharp arrow fell.
The visible air vibrated, and then suddenly flew around the street like waves caused by stones falling into the water. The figure hit by the sharp arrow in the center of the circle did not look like the masonry and rubble raised around it.
It usually turns into fragments of flesh and blood all over the sky, but slowly scatters downward like dissipating sand: "Enemy attack!"
"Sir, be careful!"
"Don't panic! The enemy is just ahead! Cheer up! For the glory of the empire!"
"Archer!"
Panicked shouts accompanied by scattered footsteps quickly spread along the edge of the street, but Duan Qing's voice immediately sounded in the alley in one direction: "The one who attacked us at that time
That group of people! His target is me!”
"Front right! Someone is coming!"
"The City Guard will not sit idly by! Don't worry!"
In the scene where the remaining phantom projections began to dissipate at the same time, Duan Qing, who directed everyone to rush out of the alley, shouted loudly towards the stacks of street buildings in front: "They chose a wrong time! Just catch their tails."
That’s it…Lingbing!”
"give it to me."
The sounds that broke through the air one after another were mixed with the responses belonging to Xue Ling Huan Bing, but the corresponding figure of the white-haired woman did not appear. Duan Qing put down the magic stone in his hand and then gritted his teeth and moved towards the person who had already begun to communicate with him.
The group of attackers who were in contact with the Fat Man's noble team rushed over: "They actually took action... This time, you have the guts."
"Let's go!"
***********************************
"What a bunch of bastards."
Walking quickly in another alley of The Thebilis Castle, the figure belonging to the Thousand-Fingered Crane then disappeared at the end of the alley where the Warren Tavern was located, and then emerged from the red hair under the cloak.
He looked very angry, and the sweet face that originally belonged to the girl became much colder: "Do you just expect me to come to the rescue? Each one of you has made no progress at all!"
"If this continues, everything will happen again."
She pursed her lips tightly, and the rising flames fell around her: "If you can't become stronger..."
"If I can't continue to become stronger..."
She clenched her fists, and the teeth that were biting her lower lip disappeared into her increasingly determined expression. Her chaotic thoughts were like the clouds that were gradually shrinking in the sky, and the girl's footsteps also stopped.
Together they slowly froze in place. The stream of magic flames then continued to flow in her hands, forming a small flame sphere in Qianzhihe's hands. Her eyes shifted to this sphere.
He just stood there and looked at it quietly. After a while, he dissipated the majestic energy that had been concentrated on it: "I hope it can succeed this time... No."
“It will definitely work this time”
boom!
The blazing brilliance then came from the far end of the street in front of her. It was the scene caused by the chaotic explosion mixed with magic and sword energy that gradually dispersed. The girl who was holding down her white magic robe then also
He raised his head and looked at the conspicuous black smoke gradually rising from the distant street: "... Someone is attacking the castle?"
"Who is so bold?"
After hesitating for a moment, the girl started running and then slowly approached the direction of the explosion. Due to the extremely close distance of one of the explosions, it didn't take long for her to reach one of the scenes of the commotion.
At the edge. The crowd around her was still fleeing in all directions. After crossing the obstacles, she waved a wall of flames, and then swept away the two rushing figures, together with the swords behind him.
The gas-shaped attack was instantly blocked from the range of his body: "...No, no, no, no! We are one of our own!"
"Who are you?" Looking at Duan Qing with his head in his hands, he suddenly broke through the wall of flames he waved and rolled to the ground. The girl who turned around frowned slightly: "I don't know you.
you."
"Hey, hey, don't forget the last encounter so quickly."
Still beating the unextinguished magic flame on his body, Duan Qing, who was in a state of embarrassment, got up from the ground in disgrace: "Meeting means being destined. Since we have met again so soon, do you have to
Take care of this fate a little bit...drink!"
He vibrated his arms vigorously in the air, and once again blocked a cold arrow shot from the sky outside the earth wall that suddenly condensed above his head, and then there was a crackling sound as the earth fragments exploded into pieces.
Inside, he gestured to Qian Zhihe, who looked surprised: "Look, so many people are bullying me, a novice."
"Don't you have any sympathy?"
