After some explanations from this player, Lao Yao and the others finally understood what the surrounding map of this city looked like.
To be precise, this city is built in an archipelago. It is dotted with countless small islands in all directions. These small islands are the so-called leveling areas. Players want to go to a certain island.
You have to take a boat to get there.
Outside the four gates of Usbatu City, there are not only city walls, but also piers. Players take boats from these piers to travel between the various islands. In other words, the old demon and the others want to go
As for Jigs Island, we must first figure out the route.
"Just like the bus, you have to go to the south gate to take the boat bound for Moren Island first, and then change boats at Moren Island before you can get to Giggs Island!" The hunter player said with a smile: "It still sounds like
What's more troublesome is that many players like you who come from other cities can't figure out the route at the beginning, but you get used to it after a long time! By the way, if I remember correctly, Giggs Island
The monsters spawned there are level 42 and above, what are you doing there?"
"We have a mission to go there!" the old demon replied with a smile.
"Oh, then you have to be careful. The monsters around this city are not like the monsters in other cities!" The hunter player said: "Most of the monsters here are waterway amphibian monsters. Don't go to the coast.
If you do, the monsters in the water will jump out and drag you into the water. If the player does not have water-proof equipment, the attack power, defense power and all other attributes will be halved when entering the water. Don't accidentally die!
"
"Wow! There is such a monster! It's the first time I've heard of it!" Girl Jingjing said in surprise, sticking out her tongue.
"Of course, the monsters you have there are all inland monsters, but this is a seaside city!" the player said with a smile.
It was rare to meet a player who explained so carefully, so the old demon thanked him very gratefully. After the player left, everyone rushed towards the south gate.
Along the way, Wang Ke was carefully considering her treasure map, and finally suddenly said: "If the player said that the creatures in the water will drag the player into the water to attack, then we have to be careful, because from the map
Look, the place where this treasure is hidden happens to be on the coast!"
"Don't worry!" Yang Yongle said, "Let's talk about it when we get there first!"
When they arrived at the South Gate Pier, everyone was shocked again by the scene in front of them. It was exactly as the hunter player said before, with many sailing ships and a prosperous port.
There are two sizes of ships here. One is a smaller passenger ship for players to ride on, while the other is a relatively huge battleship-like sailboat, which seems to be used by the system NPC guards. That ship
It has a lot of dark muzzles, whether it is gunpowder cannon or magic cannon. It looks very powerful.
These are nothing. What amazes Lao Yao and the others the most is that the players here can actually tame the creatures in the water as mounts. They can ride such aquatic mounts freely on the sea, whether they are huge
Turtles, large lobsters with thick shells, or crabs that are huge and can walk sideways in the water can all be seen here. Countless players ride their water mounts and shuttle freely on the water.
Make countless waves.
"It's so interesting!" Didi's eyes gleamed when he saw it. He quietly gave the old demon a hand and asked, "Can we also catch underwater mounts like they do? I want to catch a dolphin or something like that.
must be fun!"
The old demon shook his head and said: "Unless we move the entire mercenary group to settle in this city, otherwise, it is really not necessary. We only came here by chance, and we grabbed a mount just for the purpose of operating here.
Such a waste!"
Didi nodded. When the old demon said this, she also gave up her fantasy. Not only her, but many other girls also had the same idea as her. If they really wanted to catch them, they wouldn't be able to catch one or two.
problem.
On the pier, a man who looked like an NPC crew member was shouting, "The ship to Morun Island will leave in two minutes. Friends who need to go, please board the ship as soon as possible!"
Naturally, Lao Yao and the others cannot ride water mounts to and from various islands like the players here, so they can only ride on the system's ships.
There are quite a few people in the passenger ship. Most of the players in the local city will choose water mounts. Those who are still on the ship are probably many like Lao Yao and others, who are either here for sightseeing or to do quests.
The ship set off soon. Everyone was crowded on the deck, pointing around and looking at the scenery on the sea. Old Yao was no exception. However, not long after, he seemed to notice that Youdao's eyes were observing him.
So I turned around to see who it was.
As a result, I could only see the players chattering around, but no one was looking at Lao Yao and the others.
"That's weird! Is it an illusion?" The old demon muttered in confusion and stopped paying attention.
...The ship continued to sail, and in the other direction on the deck, there were two people lying on the side of the ship looking at the scenery, but the content of their chat had nothing to do with the scenery.
"You are very alert! You are indeed not an ordinary person! What do you think, Shahu!"
"Indeed! Puppet Wolf, fortunately you suppressed your hostility when you looked at him just now, otherwise, he would definitely become suspicious!"
"Looking at them, they seemed to be on a mission. I looked around and found that there were fourteen of them in total!"
"Although it's not too much, don't take it too lightly. That man is the main target, and the rest may also pose obstacles to us."
"Let's take a look first and then talk. We have to have the opportunity. If not, I don't mind following him for another day or two!"
"Haha, you are right. Patience is the prerequisite for completing the task. But if that is really the case, it seems that we have to negotiate with that young master Lin. He is impatient to wait."
...After fifteen minutes of sailing, Lao Yao and the others arrived at Morun Island. Calculated in this time, it was actually about the same as running a map in an inland city. After changing boats, everyone headed towards their destination, Giggs.
Go to the island.
Although riding on a boat is not as enjoyable as riding a horse in the water, there is one thing that is incomparable, and that is safety!
On the way here, Lao Yao has seen players riding water mounts being attacked by monsters more than once. This is because they have touched the warning range of monsters. Unlike monsters in inland areas, the warning range of aquatic creatures is
It is three-dimensional, which means that if you ride a mount and swim over the monster's head, you may touch the monster's warning range and attract pursuit.
Fortunately, the monster levels on the islands we visited in the previous voyage were not very high, so in fact, the water creatures that attacked the players were not of a high level. They would not kill players above level 30, but they would just watch the player suddenly fall into the water.
It just looks a little scary.
During the transfer to Giggs Island, the number of players seen was much smaller. The level of monsters in this section of the sea began to increase. No one dared to ride water mounts back and forth. Almost all of them got on the boat.
And each island has a dock for transferring ships. Those players who took a boat with Lao Yao and the others do not mean that they are all going to Giggs Island to level up.
After getting off the boat and setting foot on Jigs Island, the girls all cheered!
This group activity is really like a group outing, with sunshine, beaches, and palm trees, all of which are there. If this place is not a place where monsters are rampant, but there are beach lounge chairs and ice-cold drinks, then
That’s perfect!
After letting the refreshing sea breeze blow for a while, the old demon greeted everyone: "Okay, let's enjoy it later. Don't forget, we are here to dig for treasures!"
Perhaps the scenery here was so beautiful and comfortable that the girls all relaxed their vigilance. After leaving the safe area around the pier and encountering monsters, they finally came to their senses. This was not an outing...
...Although the hunter player reminded the old demon and the others at that time not to go to the coast, this does not mean that the land part of the island is safe, and there are also ferocious monsters.
The corrupted sun vine is a level 42 plant monster. Its attack method is to wrap the enemy tightly and suffocate it to death. The giant Coleman piranha is a level 44 plant monster. Its huge buds are filled with countless sharp edges.
The serrated teeth have super high attack power. Once bitten, even Tranquility, a warrior with full strength, may be killed instantly.
Fortunately, these monsters have certain weaknesses. The Corrupted Sun Vine has a fire weakness and can be quickly killed by Yang Yongle and other fire mages. Although the Piranha has super high attack power, it is difficult to move. If you avoid it, you can
Avoid encounters with them.
As a result, they continued to encounter monsters on the road, which made the girls understand that this place was still some distance away from the resort they imagined... Of course, the old demon and the others did not come here to level up, so basically
If you can hide, hide. If you really can't hide, kill the monster as soon as possible. Although monsters above level 40 have relatively high attributes, they are still ordinary monsters after all. If fourteen people attack together, they can still be killed easily.
Soon, everyone passed through the forest on the island and arrived at the coast indicated by the treasure map.
There is a huge, dilapidated ship stranded on the shore. It has been covered with moss due to long-term erosion by sea water and exudes a rotten wood smell. The sails hanging from the mast of the ship have long since disappeared.
Except for the huge hole in the hull, there is nothing else in the boat.
"Hey, the location shown on our treasure map couldn't be on this ship, right?" Girl Ning Jing looked at the weird ship like a ghost ship and couldn't help but shuddered and said, "If it is, I'll kill you."
Don’t go up either!”
Wang Ke didn't say anything, and began to take the treasure map and carefully compare it with the surrounding reference objects. The precise coordinates of the treasure location need to be confirmed slowly.
At this time, the old demon seemed to hear a slight noise coming from behind, and couldn't help but look back.
"What's wrong?" After noticing his movements, Charming Dance Step asked.
"I don't know. From the moment we got on the boat, I felt like someone was following us, but I couldn't see anyone every time!" The old demon scratched his head and said, "I wonder if it's my imagination?"
"Don't you know if you check it?" Charming Dance Step smiled and called out to Jiang Yu, Yang Huan and Zhang Qi, three girls. They are all hunters. Charming Step asked them to confirm with their eyes of truth.
See if there are assassins lurking behind everyone...
