Chu Nan informed Huo Wu Jiutian about the coming of Night Owl, and also told her that it was best not to pass the news to a third person. Surprise can lead to victory. Such a secret trump card can be used at critical moments.
It dealt a fatal blow to the return to the peak.
After Huo Wu Jiutian heard this, he looked at Chu Nan in great surprise: "The Night Owl who came first?"
"What first place?" This time, it was Chu Nan's turn to be curious.
"First place in the martial arts competition."
"Is the competition over?"
"How many days have passed before you found out?"
"I..." Then Chu Nan reacted and said, "But...he...he is the first?"
"Yes, your news is too late."
After Chu Nan was stunned for a long time, he asked: "What is the reward for first place?"
"A Horcrux plus a title, but he already has a Horcrux, and you can't equip two Horcruxes."
Oh, no wonder he got bold and started thinking about coming back to the top. Chu Nan finally figured it out. Although the title of King Shura who came back to the top is indeed powerful, what is certain is that the reward for the first place in the martial arts competition is
The attributes of the title are not average. Calculated in this way, Ye Xiao may not lose to Peak Return.
"I'm really looking forward to it now. Will they sabotage our mission again when we reach the peak again? God bless, they will definitely come!" Chu Nan smiled.
After returning to East Seawatch, the ships that had managed to escape had entered the port and berthed one by one. However, before that, Chu Nan and Huo Wu Jiutian received a system prompt at the same time. The adventure union branch of East Seawatch was convening.
The two of them went.
Both of them are smart people, and it is not difficult to guess that it is most likely that Claude already knows about the failure of the mission handover.
Chu Nan felt even more uneasy, because if Claude punished him and Huo Wu Jiutian for this, it would be a big loss. However, there is a more serious situation than this, and the mission was canceled directly.
, then the plan to counter the return of Peak was completely ruined.
After arriving at the Adventure Union branch, Albert directly brought Chu Nan and Huo Wu Jiutian into a secret room of the branch. The person already standing inside was the envoy sent by Claude.
The messenger said straight to the point: "Chairman Claude already knows everything about the failure of your mission handover. This matter should be caused by a traitor within our organization. The president said that you are not to blame."
After Chu Nan and Huo Wu Jiutian heard this, they couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then Chu Nan asked eagerly: "Will the mission continue this time?"
"Of course we have to continue, but this time we have to be more prepared."
This is exactly what Chu Nan wants. With the powerful NPC lineup and Ye Xiao, there is no need to be afraid of reaching the peak again.
"What about time?" Huo Wu Jiutian asked, "Do we need to extend the deadline?"
"No, this batch of ships is very important to the army. It can only be advanced and cannot be delayed. This is why the president sent me to inform you. The deadline remains unchanged. Please continue your efforts. During this period, I will
Stay here, and as soon as you gather the number of ships, come here to meet me, and I will arrange the handover location."
Chu Nan nodded helplessly and thought about it carefully. There are less than 4 days left. If we follow the previous speed and everything goes well, it shouldn't be a big problem to gather 20 ships again.
After the two people walked out of the Adventure Guild, they immediately started working on the mission with all their strength. Chu Nan was still responsible for the sea area outside East Sea Watch, and Huo Wu Jiutian was responsible for the seagull town.
The two of them lived up to their trust and spent three days recovering the lost ships.
After meeting with the messenger in the secret room, the handover location was set at the small valley that Chu Nan had accidentally discovered at the junction of the Frostwind Mountains and the sea to the north of East Sea Watch. Moreover, because Chu Nan had completed Marcus's mission before,
There is also a group of NPC troops stationed in this area.
The right time, the right place, the right people, everything is perfect! Chu Nan excitedly notified Ye Xiao immediately, and the latter immediately responded and came immediately.
"Everything is ready now, all we have to do is reach the peak again." Chu Nan looked at the darkening sky and murmured.
Late at night, Chu Nan led the fleet northward in a mighty manner. This time, he was quite well prepared. He also brought all the NPC gunners he had recruited to prevent him from being attacked by the enemy like last time.
The embarrassing situation of people having sex with each other, and Ye Xiao was hiding on the ship where Chu Nan was on. The only thing that made Chu Nan feel very unhappy was that Ye Xiao did not bring the powerful companion that Chu Nan thought, but was still his
The trio of golden partners, Tao Zhiyaoyao and Smiling Drinking Arsenic, were two characters who were eliminated before Chu Nan in the martial arts competition. Chu Nan made fun of them for a long time as soon as they got on the boat.
Chu Nan secretly ran to the corner where Ye Xiao was hiding and asked in a low voice: "Master, let me take a look at the Horcrux as a reward for the competition."
"What's there to see? It's a piece of scrap metal."
"Oh no, Horcruxes are just scraps of metal. You rich man, how can you put a loser like me who has never even touched a Horcrux in such a state of embarrassment?"
"I can't use two pieces at the same time. Of course they are scrap metal."
"In that case, for the sake of our master-disciple relationship, give it to me."
"Are the two related?"
"Have you never read martial arts novels? Before the apprentice leaves the mountain, the master will give the apprentice a magical weapon." Chu Nan's eyes widened and he said with great expectation.
"I disappoint you... I can't trade it, so I said it was scrap metal, otherwise I would have sold it long ago."
Chu Nan: "..."
At this time, the ship suddenly bumped, and then a bearded voice came from the front: "We have arrived, but there is no way to dock. This piece of ice is all floating down from the frozen coast above. We can only
The boat is here."
Chu Nan had known about this situation for a long time, and he immediately turned around and responded: "I understand."
Then he roared again: "The gunners are on standby, ready to fight at any time!"
"Hide well." Chu Nan turned around and said to Ye Xiao, and then walked quickly towards the bow of the ship.
On the other side, Huowu Jiutian's fleet also arrived. Twenty large two-masted pirate ships lined up in two rows and stopped on the sea with great momentum.
A few firelights were faintly visible in the dark and cold air in the distance to the west, and it could be seen that it was the NPC army stationed there.
Chu Nan waited patiently for the person who came to rescue him, and at the same time, he listened at any time for any strange noises that might come from his surroundings. Moreover, on the sea far and near, war eagles have been sent out to circle and look down, to prevent pirate ships from approaching, or
Yes, this time when the peak comes again, they may directly sail over, because they robbed more than ten ships last time; if it is underwater, there are people monitoring it, and this operation basically takes all-round preventive measures.
After a while, Chu Nan gradually saw a group of NPCs in black approaching quickly along the ice floe.
"Damn, didn't you say that we would strengthen our defenses? Why are there still such a small number of people?" Chu Nan frowned.
