The inn, which was originally a fixed facility in the city of the system, has a very low sense of existence for players. It mainly provides services to NPCs and has taxis to other cities. Players' dealings with the inn are basically tasks.
needs, such as special escort missions.
The mission is rare, so there are usually very few players coming to the inn, but today's situation is particularly different.
The inn outside the city gate has been crowded with players who came after hearing the news. They gathered in front of the new trading shop counter in the inn, vying to buy riding pets with extremely high practicality.
Everyone from the Yangmei team arrived quite early, and the system had intelligent expansion settings, so everyone easily queued to the front of the line.
Behind the long counter are tall shelves. On the shelves are a dazzling array of metal nameplates. The sizes are roughly the same, but there are different colors such as gold, silver, yellow, and gray.
These metal nameplates represent different kinds of riding pets. The quality is high or low, and the prices are of course very different.
The grades of riding pets are divided into nine levels, named by stars from 1 to 9. Since all riding pets cannot directly fight, their qualities are mainly distinguished by speed, endurance, physique and talent.
In terms of ability.
The higher the star rating of a riding pet, the higher its running speed, continuous running time, and HP. It also has certain innate auxiliary abilities, which are of great help to players.
Among the riding pets sold in the inn store, the highest is 5-star, and the lowest is 1-star. The latter has the largest number, and they are basically low-level beasts such as bay-red horses, and the price is only 5 gold.
As for the highest five-star unicorns, monster wolves, saber-tooth tigers, etc. with special talents, the price is as high as 1,000 gold, which is equivalent to more than 100,000 yuan.
There is no doubt that this is an important method used by the "Glory" official to recover game coins, and riding pets cannot be used all the time after being purchased. They must be equipped with vehicles and equipment, and feeds must be purchased.
The original stables of the station have been transformed into animal pens, and hundreds of riding pets are kept there according to different star levels for players to choose from. The pure white, holy and beautiful unicorns are the most attractive to female players. They are majestic and majestic.
The saber-toothed tiger and giant wolf are favored by male compatriots.
In contrast, those 1- and 2-star riding pets have completely become mere passers-by.
"Husband, I want a unicorn!"
Different voices and the same demands appeared one after another in the crowd of spectators.
Among the players who come to buy riding pets, many are couples in real life or in the game.
A riding pet can allow up to two people to ride together. It is definitely a very romantic thing to be able to gallop in the endless wilderness with your sweetheart.
But the price of a high-star riding pet is really unromantic.
"The unicorn... is too expensive. Can you replace it with a white-maned horse? You see, they are actually about the same."
Except for a very few tycoon-level players, most of the husbands are Alexanders.
"Hmph! Are a 5-star riding pet similar to a 2-star one? Even if you can't afford a unicorn, you still have to buy me a 4-star one. If you don't have money, go earn it!"
"Four stars also cost 200 gold. I think 2 stars is not bad. Can I use it first?"
"Why did I find you, a loser? I don't want it anymore. Just go to sleep with your white-maned horse in your arms!"
Fortunately, there are not many unreasonable couples, otherwise the pet riding shop would turn into a breakup party.
The beast-riding cards that sealed the riding pets were sold one after another, and the money in the players' pockets returned to the pockets of the system masters like water.
The Beast Riding Badge is a special piece of equipment. Once worn on the body, the usage method is exactly the same as the Hero Badge. When needed, it can be summoned directly.
A Berserker player left the counter, turned around and walked out of the queue, and summoned his riding pet in the open space next to him. It was a unicorn with a faint white light all over his body.
"Wow!"
Under the envious and jealous gazes of countless people, the berserker put a set of gorgeous silver-white harness on the unicorn, and then climbed onto the horse with great skill.
The next moment, a beautiful female priest walked out of the crowd, grabbed the soldier's hand with a shy smile, and was easily pulled onto the horse by the latter.
The two of them hugged each other and rode towards the wilderness ahead, racing like the wind, and in an instant only small dots could be seen in the distance.
"It's so romantic!" Many female players looked at it with stars in their eyes.
Of course, more male players scolded this showy berserker half to death in their hearts.
Comparison between people is irritating. It would be better if there was no comparison, but now that there is comparison, they are in big trouble.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Xi asked Lin Mei: "Do you want me to buy a unicorn from you too?"
The 1,000 gold Zhao Xi is definitely not available now, but if you sell two pieces of excellent equipment, it won’t be a big problem.
Lin Mei also liked unicorns, but she still shook her head and said: "It's too expensive. I don't need to buy it since I'm in the city. I can just buy a bay-red horse at most."
She is a person who is accustomed to budgeting carefully. How could she be willing to spend so much money to buy a decoration? Although the bay red horse has the worst 1-star rating, it is enough for transportation in the system city.
Zhao Xi smiled and shook his head, and asked the store clerk to bring him a beast-riding plaque with a silver-winged horse sealed on it.
The Silver Winged Horse is a 3-star riding pet, with 1500 hp and a running speed of 55. Although it has no additional talents, its attributes and appearance are quite good, and the price of 80 gold is still acceptable.
Spend another 20 gold to buy a set of horse gear, and everything is ready.
Like most players who bought riding pets, Zhao Xi also summoned the silver-winged horse, put on the harness and rode on it, and also extended his hand to Lin Mei.
In full view of everyone, Lin Mei rolled her eyes at him, but obediently put her little hand into Zhao Xi's palm, and let him pull up the horse and lean into his arms.
"You take your time and choose!"
Zhao Xi smiled and said to Fang Xu and others who were still choosing: "My sister and I are leaving first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he clamped the horse's belly with both legs, and the reins held in his left hand flicked and slapped on the horse's neck.
Although he is not the kind of rich second generation, he learned equestrian skills when he was in the border guard army and often rode a war horse on patrols. Now he can control the simplified mount in the game without any problem.
"The old monitor is so kind to my sister-in-law!"
Lan Qiao watched the two people leave with envy, and then glanced at Xiong Bin: "When will you be able to be so kind to me?"
Xiong Bin scratched his head and smiled innocently but did not answer. He did not know the right answer.
"Silly!"
Lan Qiao stepped on him bitterly, then hugged his arm: "Let's buy a white-maned horse."
The white-maned horse is a 2-star riding pet, priced at only 20 gold.
Purchasing mounts is also very beneficial to the team, so Lin Mei gave all members of the Yangmei team a reimbursement of 10 gold. If you want to buy better ones, you have to pay for them yourself.
The total of the two of them is exactly 20 gold. Buying a white-maned horse is undoubtedly the best choice, and it doesn't cost much to match it with cheap horse gear.
As for Fang Xu and the six Ye family brothers, after discussion, they all purchased the 3-star Green Cavalry Wolf.
While they were buying their riding pets, Zhao Xi and Lin Mei galloped in the green grassy wilderness.
Although they face each other day and night in reality, the two of them spend very little time alone together in the game. Facing the strong wind blowing in their faces and feeling the generous and solid support behind them, Lin Mei's initially nervous mood quickly relaxed.
.
But before they ran too far, the silver-winged horse suddenly slowed down and stopped.
Lin Mei was a little strange. She straightened up and turned to look at Zhao Xi: "What's wrong?"
Zhao Xi reached out and hugged her waist, lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
Lin Mei, who was suddenly attacked, let out a "嘤四" and struggled feebly twice. She was immediately lost and intoxicated in his embrace. Ding Xiang murmured softly and let the other party ravage her tender lips.
The wind from afar blows across the vast wilderness, adding a romantic and warm atmosphere unconsciously.
