Europe, UK, Scotland, in a classical castle on the outskirts of Glasgow——
Like most medieval castles, this beautiful and classical castle has a beautiful and peaceful inner courtyard. The courtyard is planted with beautiful oak trees. The white gravel paths under the trees are very clean and neat, and there are occasionally a few yellow fallen leaves.
, but it adds to the artistic conception. In the center of the courtyard is a simple statue of a character. The statue is standing with a sword in both hands, wearing an exquisite knight's armor, and a cloak hanging from the back to the ground. Its expression is serious and holy, giving people a sense of
It feels as if a real person is standing there.
The statue stood in the garden of the courtyard, surrounded by blood-red roses. It seemed intentional. The petals of the roses were peeled off and scattered along the path, making it look more desolate and beautiful.
This is the castle of the St. Clair family, a castle with a long history - a powerful family.
A girl wearing a snow-white noble knight's robe came from the hall to this quiet courtyard. The girl was so beautiful that it was breathtaking. Her long golden hair was as dazzling as the sun and hung down like a waterfall. Her blue eyes were like the most brilliant sapphires.
, her skin that can be broken by a blow is as smooth as snow... She, a beautiful girl, came to the courtyard with a somewhat noble aura, and quietly stared at the statue in front of her.
She was holding an unedged exquisite long sword in her hand, with a pious expression on her face, and she was muttering something to herself.
"Sophie?" A soft middle-aged voice came from the front.
The girl raised her head in surprise, only to find a smiling middle-aged man standing not far behind the statue. She was stunned, and then she pouted her mouth in dissatisfaction with a cute expression: "Father! I have grown up.
Yes! Please call me Sophia!"
"Well, my little girl! The little girl has grown up." Mr. Samuel St. Clair agreed with a smile.
"It's Sophia! Not a little girl!" the girl snorted.
"Okay, Nizi! It's rare for your father to come back to see you!" A beautiful woman who still retains her charm came out from behind the middle-aged man with a smile, kissed Sophia's forehead, and laughed softly.
"Mom, why are you back?" The little girl was startled, and suddenly felt a little bad.
"Sophia, have you practiced swordsmanship recently?" Mr. St. Clair looked serious.
"Uh... I have exercised!" The little girl blushed. She had been playing games too much recently and had forgotten all her homework... This was so bad, she stuck out her cute little tongue in her heart.
"Just exercising is not enough! What about morning prayers and the swordsmanship that our family is most proud of?" Mr. St. Clair said seriously.
"But what's the use of learning swordsmanship in this era?" Sophia complained in a low voice. She was right. In this era, hot weapons are far more powerful than cold weapons. If you are not a person with abilities, don't even think about having a gun in your hand.
guy versus.
"Nizi, swordsmanship represents not only a skill, but a spirit. Especially for our family, swordsmanship is an honor." The woman said softly.
"Really?" Sophia's eyes widened curiously.
"Okay, Sophie, don't change the subject. Listen to the housekeeper... have you been very good at playing games recently?" Mr. St. Clair asked.
"Where is it? Just for a little while every day." Of course the little girl would not admit it.
"You!" The woman tapped the little girl's nose with her slender fingers.

The time in the game is slowly passed by the player in a half-tight and half-relaxed state. The situation in the eastern part of the Quiet Bay is like a pot of paste. No one can see it clearly. All they know is that the war cry continues to pour in a lot of money.
Send players to the front line of Balgans.
In this confused state, Xiao Fen and his party went south along the Black Domain River, heading towards the elven city of Lanlos in a leisurely manner. The road from Balgans to Lanlos is a famous business road near the Quiet Bay.
Heyi Road, this road runs through the most prosperous areas of the entire Wangan area. In this area, there will be a densely populated town or novice village less than ten miles apart on average. There are also a lot of players around, and there are almost no
What wilderness areas will appear.
The road is a spacious avenue that can accommodate two four-wheeled carriages in parallel. The road was once neatly paved with white slates, but now it looks a bit fragmented. After all, the road was last renovated seven years ago by the Quiet Bay Force.
During the third major reshuffle.
There are beautiful oak trees and some tall oak trees neatly planted on the roadside. The hills in the distance are covered with beech trees. Green meadows roll down like carpets on the slopes of the hills, dotted with dots.
White or yellow wildflowers and winding rivers flow around the foot of the mountain like a link, passing through several villages and towns under the sky, and I don’t know where it flows.
In the emerald green environment, dots of players are walking together, hunting monsters in the wild, or collecting herbs, or traveling, which looks particularly pleasant.
A creaking rolling sound came from the road to the north. From a distance, what was passing through the oak trees was a large white carriage. Although the noise made by the carriage was not small, it was moving very fast.
It was stable, but from time to time there was laughter coming from above. It was obvious that there were girls on the carriage, and there were more than one.
Everyone guessed correctly, Xiao Fen and other eight people were on the carriage. There were post roads connecting the big cities in the rich eastern region. Riding a carriage was not only much faster, but also avoided many dangers (you would not encounter enemies when riding a carriage). Although
The price of 30GP per person is a bit outrageous...
Quiet Xue lay quietly on the window of the carriage and watched groups of players flash past in the distance - she knew that these players were all novices, and maybe in the near future they would also embark on adventures like everyone else.
path, but I wonder if these players will remember that before them, countless well-known or unknown adventure groups have appeared in this virtual land, including her own team! She has nothing
He didn't say anything, he just watched quietly, with a faint smile on his lips.
Behind her, Ke'er and the little girl were playing and laughing in the slightly crowded space, making a string of laughter like silver bells. Wrought Iron was wiping his weapon as usual, Manshi buried his head and didn't know what he was thinking, and Yun was as usual.
With a straight face, Xiao Fen and Half Apple whispered some unknown knowledge... Everything was just like the most ordinary days, peaceful and orderly.
But what they didn't know was that three miles behind them, a beautiful black four-wheeled carriage followed closely, perhaps starting from Balgans, this carriage has been following closely.
Hanging on their backs like a tail.
There are more than a dozen knights scattered next to the black carriage. These knights can be considered to include elites from 'all walks of life', from warriors to mages, and even paladins. They form a motley team... and from their distribution
Judging from their positions, these guys should be protecting the people in the black four-wheeled carriage - although the system stipulates that there will be no danger in the carriage...
A warrior jockey beside the carriage suddenly reached out and took a pigeon that appeared out of thin air. He opened the note passed by the pigeon and read it carefully. Then he approached the carriage and lowered his head and whispered: "Young Master..."
"Call the leader, you bastard!" An angry curse immediately came from the carriage, followed by a girl's giggle.
"Regiment...leader, they passed Tai Lin's hotel." The man quickly changed his words.
"Oh? Which path did they choose?"
"The road to Ramloth."
"Lanluos? Then let's go to Lanluos too!"
"Young... Captain, but I suspect that they are going to the Dragon City, should we go with them?" The soldier hesitated for a while.
"Nonsense! Of course I'll follow."
"Master! But... didn't Mr. Lowndes tell us not to go to the south?" the soldier exclaimed.
"It's the leader! Bastard! I've said it several times! Idiot!"
"Yes, Mr. Captain!"
"...I don't care what my elder brother says, I will follow if I tell you to! Now I am your leader!" After a moment of silence, the person in the carriage said.
The soldier showed a troubled expression, but finally nodded slightly: "Okay, Master."
"It's the leader! Damn idiot..."
A terrible roar came from the post road, startling a group of unknown birds...
…………
At the same time, in the Echo Forest——
Echo Forest is a quiet place. It is one of the few elves born in the Quiet Bay. It is still very remote and not rich in resources, so there are very few players and it seems deserted... But the elven nobles here tame and fly.
Horses and griffins, I believe that when most players reach the level where they can ride large flying mounts, this will become a place where every inch of land will be fought for. (Note: The system sets that level 3 can be used to ride horses, and level 5 can be used to ride special species.
For ground mounts, you can ride large flying and dragon-like mounts at level 10, and you can ride super large ground or flying mounts at level 20.)
The scenery of the forest is very beautiful, with green lawns, rocks covered with rich moss, gurgling streams, and of course the mottled light spots cast by the sun, as well as the brown-red aerial roots and emerald-green vines hanging from the branches.
…
An incredibly handsome blond elf leaned against a tree and adjusted his beloved longbow. He scattered the arrows randomly on the grass and twisted the string little by little. His expression was full of concentration, as if he was the only one in the world.
This activity is worth completing.
A fluttering sound came, and the blond elf's pointed ears trembled slightly. He stretched out his right hand to catch the carrier pigeon that suddenly appeared, and then opened the note...
"A waste of time..." he whispered.
…………
On the other side, at a lively market in a certain town——
Te Yi rubbed his hands and stared closely at a professional businessman not far away - as a player, he had a lot of bodyguards around him. Three warriors, three rangers, and two mages,
It’s really annoying!
Teyi has been eyeing this prey for a while. In the eyes of this human thief, all dangers and uncertainties are not as important as the money in the prey's pocket.
"It must be a fat sheep!" He licked his lips, his eyes shining with excitement, "But the important thing is, I will definitely succeed!"
He rubbed his hands again. He had been preparing for several days. For this moment... he did not hesitate to tighten his nerves, yes, just for the money in the other party's pocket!
"This is a challenge!" he said to himself.
He was ready to take action! He moved towards the target.
"Oh! Damn it! Damn it! How could you choose this time! You robbers..." Mr. Thief suddenly stopped and yelled angrily, then he grabbed a homing pigeon from behind, with angry flames radiating from his eyes.
If you could read that look, you would know that he was planning to roast the pigeon.
He opened the note and subconsciously licked his mouth.
"Cool! Big business! The big business is finally open!" He suddenly laughed.
…………
Bargans, Digger Street——
Cato's Reindeer Inn is not famous, but it is liked by a few people because of its quiet atmosphere, such as these two, uh... big guys!
This is a warrior monk. He has short flaxen hair and his eyes are slightly closed, but it gives people the feeling that the surrounding environment is under his control. He wears an inconspicuous gray monk coat.
He wears a pair of extremely beautiful blue steel ring gloves on his hands. From the appearance, you can tell that these gloves are extraordinary.
Opposite the monk sat a tall red-haired man. The simple leather armor and the huge sword lying aside showed his identity: a barbarian, a strong man who fought by instinct! His brown pupils shone with desire.
In the light of battle, he sipped the wine carefully, he was the lone traveler - Luskai, Luskai Dragon Slayer!
Luskai was thinking. He recalled which guys he had met a few days ago, and a smile crept onto his cheeks. "Interesting guys!" he thought.
The monk in front of him suddenly moved and had a carrier pigeon in his hand. The monk unfolded the note, looked at it, and then slowly handed it to him.
I saw a simple sentence written on the note: Target, Dragon City!
Luskai was shaken, then calmed down.
"They are not slow either. Let's go! It's our turn!" He laughed.
The monk player nodded slightly...
