"It's strange that the smell of the tracking powder has disappeared here, and the footprints that could be seen before are gone..." Wu Tiande took out a hand-drawn map and looked at it carefully.
"There is only one cesspool here. Did they go into the water?" Qin Dongliu, who always liked cleanliness, looked at the stinky puddle in front of him and his face turned dark.
"I've never heard that zombies can swim... Let's search around the area first." Wu Tiande put away the map and ordered.
Immediately, people spread out to search. At the same time, two players who were good at water also jumped into the puddle despite the rancid smell.
However, the investigators quickly reported back with disappointment: "We didn't find any suspicious clues, but it seems like someone is following us."
Wu Tiande waved his hand and said with a smile: "Let them follow. Those small guilds know how to take advantage, so they never get on the stage. Besides, the main team behind us will arrive in Lianzhou City soon. In this game
I, Wu Tiande, have never been afraid of anyone."
The people who went into the water to explore quickly climbed ashore and gasped: "The water pit is about seven or eight meters deep, and there are all kinds of bones stuck underneath. It seems to be some kind of formation!"
"A formation full of bones? It seems that there is something weird in this puddle." Wu Tiande said, and the simple sword box appeared in his hand again, but the Demon Subduer still had not been unsheathed, only the engraved words on the sword box
Those complicated and obscure patterns began to light up one by one, eventually forming a strange talisman!
The surrounding scenery also began to change. The puddle disappeared and a cave covered by shrubs appeared in its place.
Qin Dongliu looked at the fluorescent sword box with envy on his face. It can absorb and break the power of darkness. This is an attribute of the Demon-Conquering Blade. At this moment, it is just using the power of the sword box. This piece
The artifact is far more powerful than his ancient pine pattern sword.
Wu Tiande quickly took back the sword box and said with a smile: "Sure enough, someone used the power of darkness to create an illusion in this swamp. Presumably the ruins have not been discovered for so long, and they must have been used by someone with a powerful dark element."
The illusion is hidden...Leave a team of five to guard the entrance of the cave, and the others will follow me down the cave."
"Should we notify the Fifth Army?" Qin Dongliu said hesitantly.
"Of course I have to notify you, but you have to notify me after two hours."
…
Song Zheng was not in the game at the moment. He had just arranged the investigation team when he was informed that there were important things that needed him to deal with in reality.
He originally thought that someone would come to trouble him again because of the failed city building, but after exiting the game, he learned that the gate of Lianzhou City had been reopened.
"The Lianzhou city gate is open? Thank God that damn thief was finally caught." Song Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. The reopening of the city gate means that he can immediately receive support from the base in the city.
Unexpectedly, the old man wearing the rank of lieutenant general shook his head and sighed: "Unfortunately, the thief has not been caught yet, but it is said that there are specific clues, and the city lord's palace has also posted a wanted order, and the reward is extremely high.
Gao, that guy has now replaced the dark wizard as the most wanted criminal in Lianzhou."
"Oh, where did the master come from to be so bold? Is the Resurrection Pill still on the thief?" Song Zheng asked in surprise. At this moment, he knew without thinking that the thief must be famous all over the world, and he would hunt him down from now on.
His people must be like the crucian carp crossing the river.
"Speaking of which, maybe you know that person?" the old man said with a wry smile.
Song Zheng couldn't help but said in astonishment: "Do I know him? There doesn't seem to be such a strong NPC master among the people I know..."
"It's not a game NPC, but a player named Su Yan."
"Su Yan?!" Song Zheng was startled and immediately shook his head and said: "That's absolutely impossible. How could that guy steal the elixir from the City Lord's Mansion? Did he meet someone with the same name?"
"I also hope it is the same name, but the information on the wanted poster is that he is a recent disciple of the Spring and Autumn Sword Hall, which is completely consistent with his information."
Song Zheng's eyes widened: "This... how is this possible? That kid is of a very low level, and he has been following us in the dark swamp..."
"But someone did find a large amount of elixirs in his in-game residence, and the people at the City Lord's Mansion have determined that those elixirs were stolen. You'd better call him over and ask him carefully."
Song Zheng couldn't help but frown and said: "That boy happened to be captured by the Corpse King in the swamp, and he can't exit the game at all... Could this be just an unexpected coincidence? Maybe someone wants to frame him, I absolutely don't believe it.
That kid can go to the city lord's mansion and steal the elixir."
"Maybe...but now that the wanted order has been posted, it won't be long before that kid will become famous all over the world..."
Song Zheng frowned and was about to say something else, but someone else quit the game and reported.
"Report! A large number of elite garrison troops were found gathering at the north gate of Lianzhou City. It is initially estimated to exceed ten thousand people. They are led by the third son of the city lord himself. The target is probably the Dark Swamp."
Song Zheng couldn't help being shocked: "The garrison of Lianzhou City was dispatched?!"
The old man couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "It seems that the city lord already knows the news about that kid, and he will not hesitate to send troops to attack the dark swamp... It is estimated that those people from the north will rush to the swamp soon to fight for the resurrecting pill. Now that
The Dark Swamp is really lively..."
"This is indeed lively enough...but the trouble that boy caused this time is too much!" Song Zheng muttered in a daze. Naturally, he knew very well about the garrison troops in Lianzhou City, most of whom were
He is an NPC, and there are also a small number of elite players who have the opportunity to join. For example, his subordinate Lao Liu is a captain of the South City Guards in the game.
The most basic requirement for joining the garrison is to reach level 40! The elites among them are all above level 60, and basically have the strength to advance for the second time.
As for the third son of the city lord, he is an 85-level game NPC, and his profession is the iron pagoda after the knight's second advancement. However, his real power is the luxurious and top-notch equipment, and even his mount is a
A level 88 Yunhu who can be called a BOSS...that is completely the second generation official in a game NPC!
At the same time, Su Yan's name spread almost immediately inside and outside the game, but no one believed his basic information and game experience.
"A swordsman less than level 10? How is this possible..."
"Being a miner, you only have less than a month of gaming experience? This is absolutely impossible. Collect the latest information immediately at all costs."
The first reaction of various forces after obtaining information about him was to throw the information directly into the trash.
…
However, as the 'participant' in the theft case of the City Lord's Mansion, Su Yan still knew nothing about all this.
After several hours of marching underground, the giant poisonous spider finally arrived at the tunnel exit.
This should be the edge area of the ruins.
"Haha, the old guy is not here. He is probably still looking for us, which is just an advantage for me." After looking around, the Poison Dragon Master found no danger and was immediately overjoyed.
Su Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, finally not having to face his cheap master right away.
However, the 'Senior Sister' beside her was still unable to move, and the dark skin that was originally as stiff as iron began to become soft under the influence of the poison, and the face that originally had only two red pupils now had a vague appearance.
