ps: Sorry, I kept feeling that something was wrong later in this chapter, so I revised it again and again.
In fact, what Bingyu discovered was that the ID "Shangji" could not be found in the territory list of the Ascart Territory. The most she could do was conclude that Ye Shang was not a citizen of the Ascart Territory.
As for "Night Dire", there is no necessary connection.
But for some reason, the moment he realized that Ye Shang was not a citizen of the Ascart territory, Bing Yu's mind combined the images of him and "Night Dire" together.
However, after coming up with this seemingly absurd idea, Bingyu suddenly discovered that Ye Shang and "Night Dire" did have some similarities and even similarities. For example, it was first reported that Ye Shang and "Night Dire" appeared within the territory of Ascart.
The news about the skilled assassin, later known as the "Night Dire", happened shortly after Ye Shang and Lan met.
As for the purpose of the assassin, Bing Yu had already inquired about it, which was money, by completing the bounty mission posted by the player on the system bulletin board.
As I said before, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Conflicts are inevitable. Duel is a way to solve them. But not every time a conflict occurs, the two parties are evenly matched. Sometimes the gap is even so big.
One party does not have any ability to fight back or retaliate.
At this time, bounty missions become another option and a more appropriate method.
Offering a certain amount of money or props to complete a certain goal, this should be the simplest explanation of the bounty mission. When "Doomsday" was first launched, bounty missions were more used to meet the needs of less advanced players, such as
Training, protection, etc. Of course, escort missions with clear price tags that require beautiful women or handsome men to accompany them to eat, drink, and train with them are also common.
However, after discovering that bounty tasks allow the anonymity of publishers and completers, the proportion of bounties to kill a certain player has gradually increased, which is also an inevitable result.
But leaving aside ordinary players, when the target of a bounty is a high-level guild or a large team, the difficulty of the task and the consequences cannot be ignored. They are more likely to offend others than most players because of their reputation.
interests and thus lead to hatred.
Therefore, you can often see on the system bulletin board a mission offering a bounty to kill a senior member of a large guild or a large team. The bounty amount is also quite high. Unfortunately, no one often takes it, and it is deleted by the system after the thirty-day period.
.
But not all bounty missions that offer rewards for killing big guilds or high-level teams end in vain. As the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards, and there must be dead men under heavy rewards. Occasionally, there will still be one or two
Each task was taken over by someone, and there were many successes and failures.
Unfortunately, no matter whether it is a success or a failure, if the high-level players of a large guild or a large team are attacked, the players whose information is obtained will basically disappear from the territory for a period of time, or go to other territories, or simply not go online to avoid pursuit.
However, there are exceptions to everything. Just over a month ago, an assassin appeared in Ascart's territory who only moved at night and could not use detection techniques to obtain information about him. In more than a month, he also completed six consecutive assassinations.
Bounty assassination missions, the targets of the assassinations are without exception high-level officials of major guilds or large teams.
Unfortunately, due to the inability to obtain his information and the elusiveness of the assassin, he failed to attract enough attention. It was not until he successfully killed Hellfire, the lord of the Ascart territory, that he suddenly caused a sensation and truly became a public figure.
The focus of his gaze also earned him the title of "Night Dire".
"Yes, I am 'Night Dire'."
Just when Bingyu recalled the information about "Night Dire" in his mind and compared it with the "scar" in front of him that was probably not a citizen of Ascart Territory, Ye Shang, who had been silent for a much longer time than before,
She finally spoke and uttered words that made her lose consciousness for a moment.
But before Bingyu could react, Ye Shang smiled and added: "If I say that, will you be happy?"
"What do you think?" Bingyu, who had come back to his senses, looked at the casual Ye Shang and asked in a deep voice. The expression on his pretty face was completely different from that of the joking Ye Shang. He was serious and serious. After all, this was
It was something she cared about very much, and it was also the question she wanted to figure out most.
"Definitely not."
Seemingly not affected by Bingyu's emotions, Ye Shang still had a relaxed attitude and said in a nonchalant tone: "No matter how you say 'Night Dire' is the one who killed your brother and caused him to almost lose his throne.
But do you have evidence? Evidence that I am the Nightmare."
"No." There was a hint of darkness in his eyes, and after a slight hesitation, Bingyu bit her cherry-colored lips and replied.
In fact, this is the biggest reason why Bingyu came directly to Ye Shang. If there was evidence, she would go straight to tell Lan and keep her friends away. The fact that she was probably not a citizen of Ascart Territory was not enough to explain anything.
, maybe it will make Lan feel that she has been targeting Ye Shang.
Why did Bingyu have a duel with Ye Shang yesterday and lost? She didn't want others, especially Lan, to think that she couldn't afford to lose.
With the corner of his eye, he glanced at Bingyu, who looked depressed and fell into silence. Ye Shang suddenly touched his chin and changed the subject: "Speaking of which, your brother is really lucky. If there hadn't been a war,
, I guess the lord of Ascart Territory will have to be replaced tomorrow, right?"
"What do you mean?" After hearing Ye Shang's words, Bingyu suddenly raised his head and asked with a sharp look in his eyes, not knowing whether it was touching a sensitive topic or for some other reason.
"It's not interesting, I just really think your brother is very lucky." There was a hint of success in the corner of his mouth. Ye Shang didn't care about Bingyu's cold gaze and continued, "The lord election is just around the corner because of the war.
Cancel it. There is nothing better than this for the fallen lord, right?
This time Bingyu no longer stared at Ye Shang closely, as if he suddenly remembered something, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his head again thoughtfully.
Ye Shang didn't say anything to disturb Bingyu's thinking. As an outsider, he could only say so much. Talking too much would be unflattering. It all depends on the judgment of the person involved. Finally, he glanced at this "
After "Zero Beauty", he turned around and left the dead end.
But just when Ye Shang was about to walk out of the dead end, a short but slight sound of messy footsteps suddenly came to his ears.
The accommodation area is located on the outskirts of Flanders City, close to the city wall. It is impossible for any players to take shortcuts and pass by in a hurry. What's more, Ye Shang is currently in an extremely secluded location, and there are few people around. Therefore, the lightning
In the blink of an eye, he understood that someone had eavesdropped on his conversation with Bing Yu.
There was no time to think too much about why someone was eavesdropping. Ye Shang suddenly jumped up and rushed out of the dead end. At the same time, he adjusted the angle of his vision and looked in the direction where the footsteps came from.
There is no doubt that Ye Shang's reaction was very fast. Unfortunately, by the time he realized the eavesdropping and rushed out of the dead end, the eavesdropper had already run a long distance away. Even with his keen eyesight, he could barely catch the other person's face.
He could no longer take a closer look at the figure, because the next second the target turned a corner, slipped into an alley, and disappeared from sight.
Ye Shang knew very well that chasing was futile. The buildings in the accommodation area were inherently complicated. Once the target was lost, it would be difficult to find it again. Moreover, he did not have a completely determined target.
But Ye Shang didn't gain anything at all. He slowly stopped and looked at the direction where the eavesdropper disappeared. He recalled the scene he saw in a flash when he rushed out of the dead end. A dazzling color gradually became clear, making him
He squinted his eyes and murmured softly at the same time.
