After hearing Michelle's words, the players stepped forward to get the wooden boxes.
[Range is truth], that is, Lao Li walks at the front of the crowd.
With his level 26 strong physique, he could lift a large wooden box of nearly two cubic meters without any effort.
The wooden box should be filled with grain. Through the gaps between the wooden boards of the wooden box, you can smell some moldy wheat.
But carrying such a big box would definitely affect your mobility, so Lao Li tried to stuff it into his backpack.
With a gentle push, the wooden box was easily stuffed into the backpack, and it only occupied one compartment.
[Strategic Supplies Box (Mission Items)]
Item introduction: A wooden box filled with various military supplies. Give the wooden box to the quartermaster [Oaklan] in the General Defense Department of Oran City, coordinates (114,514), and you can receive generous rewards.
Note: Because the box is too heavy, players carrying the box will be affected by the negative effect of [Overload].
...
Lao Li glanced at the status bar and found that he indeed had an additional negative status.
[Overload]: Your movement speed is reduced by 30%, your riding speed is reduced by 15%, and you cannot use the teleportation array. Duration N/A.
Seeing this negative state, Lao Li immediately understood.
They cannot use the teleportation array while carrying boxes. Does that mean they have to ride their mounts through the many obstacles set up by the rebels before they can return to Oran City?
Can a player carry multiple boxes at the same time?
Lao Li decided to give it a try and touched another box at hand.
But soon he received a game prompt: "You cannot carry more arms boxes."
The attempt failed.
Lao Li stepped aside and made way for other players to get boxes.
At the same time, he also said to Su Yu who was standing behind the crowd: "Mr. Ke, after getting the box, we can't use the teleportation array to go back, but must take the land route."
"I have thought of this a long time ago." Su Yu shrugged: "If we can use the teleportation array, then this mission will be too simple. After all, this is a three-in-one main plot, how can we complete it so easily?"
Moreover, the rewards for this three-in-one main plot are very generous. The reward for Su Yu is the magic medicine-[Pangen Potion]; the rewards for players are experience points, 200 psychic coins, and a pet of random quality.
Egg.
If the mission could be easily completed using the teleportation array, then this mission would definitely not have such a high reward.
Lao Li nodded and said nothing. He stood on the side of the crowd and began to think about how to do the task.
On the way to transport the mission items back to Oran City, they will definitely encounter the rebels' pursuit and interception. What can they do to bring back as much supplies as possible?
…
There are 20,000 wooden boxes placed in the warehouse, and each player has exactly one box.
After the players vacated the warehouse, Su Yu said goodbye to Michelle beside him: "Mr. City Lord, let's set off now."
"Goodbye Nemesis, I must come to Pearl City if I have a chance in the future!" Michelle said goodbye to Su Yu with a smile.
"sure!"
Su Yu mounted his mount and led the players towards the west city gate in a mighty manner.
…
But as the team advanced, Su Yu's brows furrowed, and he felt that something was even more wrong.
His suspicion of Lord Michel is gradually deepening.
In the process of building his territory, Su Yu frequently went to Pearl City and dealt with many merchants in Pearl City.
As far as he knew, the merchants in Pearl City all had strong "business habits."
Under normal circumstances, if Oran City sells 20,000 boxes of supplies at one time, and the total price of the supplies exceeds 100 million, then they will definitely inventory the supplies, and then write a detailed bill for him to hand over to the princess.
Although I don't know if the princess has paid a deposit, for such a large transaction, the merchants will definitely ask Su Yu to confirm the time point for the final payment in detail, and then let Su Yu go after repeated verification.
But now there is nothing.
City Lord Michelle did not discuss money during the whole process, neither did he count the goods nor worry about the final payment. This is completely different from Pearl City’s usual style!
This made Su Yu's suspicion even deeper.
...
Su Yu was thinking while riding Dima at the front of the large army.
Seeing Su Yu frowning and thinking, riding the [Red Velociraptor] mount, Lao Li, who was following Su Yu, smiled and said, "Mr. Ke, are you also thinking about how to do the mission?"
"No." Su Yu replied.
Lao Li's body swayed and he almost fell off the horse: "Then what are you thinking about? You are not thinking about what to eat for lunch, are you?"
"Of course not." Su Yu's mouth twitched: "I was thinking about the Lord of Pearl City..."
Su Yu trusted Lao Li very much and did not hide anything. He told him all about the meeting with Michelle, the exchanges between them, and the unusual things.
After listening to Su Yu's description, Lao Li touched his chin and nodded: "So that's what happened."
"It is indeed difficult to judge this kind of thing. After all, we currently have too little information. The evidence of these scale claws alone is not enough to determine whether the Lord of Pearl City has a problem. But -"
Lao Li said in a long voice: "But this kind of thing should be easy to solve for Mr. Ke, right?"
"Huh? How do you say this?" Su Yu was startled.
Lao Li glanced around, then lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Ke, don't you have the ability to predict the future?"
Su Yu: "Uh..."
Lao Li: "Can you predict the future and see if after the end of the first expansion pack, the Lord of Pearl City will still be Michelle?"
"If she was still the lord of Pearl City at that time, it means that she definitely did not betray the princess;"
"On the other hand, if the city lord was not her at that time, she would have either betrayed the princess or died on the battlefield. The probability of her dying on the battlefield at her level is very low, and the high probability is that she betrayed the princess."
"That's right! Why didn't I think of that?" Su Yu patted his thigh, his eyes widening.
Although Lao Li's method is not 100% qualitative, it is still valuable as a reference!
Su Yu quickly recalled the Pearl City in his previous life.
The lord of Pearl City in the previous life was really not Michel Derank, nor a descendant of the Derank family, but a member of the royal family named Ralph Plantagenet.
Su Yu, the lord of Rafal City, was deeply impressed. He often pretended to be a bard and went to various taverns to sing. Because of his handsome appearance, he had unclear relationships with many women. Once, he was caught and raped by his wife in bed, naked.
Being chased naked on the street...
Lord Raphael is a member of the royal family, which means that after the first expansion pack, Pearl City was placed under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family.
The Drake family has even lost its base camp. Looking back, it seems that Lord Michelle is most likely a traitor!
Su Yu touched his chin thoughtfully.
It seems that after returning to Oran City, he must make it clear to Alijie!
