Chapter 196 Foreplay

"King Solomon's treasure?"

Wang Hao muttered something. He seemed to have heard this keyword somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.

"A mysterious treasure appeared near the Orkney Islands in northern Scotland. After entering, a player found that a small BOSS had the Heart of the Ocean you were looking for around its neck."

After York briefly explained the situation of this treasure, his tone became anxious, "Not only us in the UK, but also players from Germany, France, the Netherlands and other countries are also on their way there, so, Wang, our

Move a little faster."

Compared with large guilds from other countries, the strength of the Saint England Guild is already much weaker. If their opponents seize the opportunity again, they will only get a little bit of soup this time.

For the current players in York, and even for the entire St. England Guild, taking advantage is equivalent to suffering a loss, which is called a high standard.

From the founding of the guild to the present, they have had many small battles with other guilds, but they have not suffered any losses, which has developed a sense of pride in them.

Confidence, or even pride, is not entirely a bad thing. In order to maintain this kind of pride and honor, members of the guild tend to be more united and have a greater sense of responsibility, but the scale needs to be grasped.

Wang Hao heard this hint from York's tone, his expression remained unchanged, and he thought he would find an opportunity to talk about it afterwards.

If left unchecked, a bad habit may develop.

"The Orkney Islands in northern Scotland, uh, aren't they in Scapa Flow?"

This thought flashed through Wang Hao's mind, and he immediately shook his head and chuckled. Although he sympathized with the experience of the German High Seas Fleet, he was not a German after all, and he did not have deep feelings for this place.

"I wonder if the other two guys will come?"

When York said that there were players from Germany, France and other countries coming, he had been thinking about this issue.

He has already met Napoleon, one of the twins in Europe. He is indeed a genius, but Merlin, who is known as the ghost fox, has not seen it with his own eyes. It is really a pity that he does not know if there will be a chance to meet him this time.

Since the last hasty farewell in the historical battle, compared to Wang Hao's low-key performance these days, Napoleon and Merlin have shone brightly. The former led a group of students from major universities to overcome obstacles and defeated several

A medium-sized guild with strong strength is entrenched in the Port of Nantes in northern France. It is so popular that many established guilds are jealous.

In particular, Napoleon's outstanding military talent and commanding ability made some old guilds in France unable to sit still. Originally, it was to boost the morale of domestic players that they vigorously praised Napoleon, and limited it.

to support the development of the Brilliant Dynasty Guild to which it belongs.

But no one expected that in just over a week, the development speed of Glory Dynasty was so fast that they were a little scared. Even if it was due to public opinion and shame, they might not immediately start to suppress this new guild, but

I will never provide the other party with any help again.

Although Wang Hao was in England, he heard a lot of news about Napoleon from York. He couldn't help but have a sneer on his lips. Now those old guilds still care about face and cherish their reputation, and can't do anything like slapping. It's just that after a while,

By that time, these people may really be unable to sit still, and by that time, nothing can be done.

He really doesn't have a good impression of these large guilds in France, people who are willing to sell out national interests. You can imagine how shameless they are.

Without these people causing trouble behind the scenes, Napoleon might not have lost the war that was related to the national destiny of the two countries.

However, Merlin still followed the trajectory of history and became the second person in a small and medium-sized guild that was not very famous.

With the help of Merlin, this guild called the High Seas Fleet also rose up in the North Sea at an extremely fast speed. Unlike Napoleon's omnipotence, Merlin was better at military strategy and naval warfare tactics. In past achievements, he was often able to win with a weak

The force's force defeated a fleet far superior in number to its own strength.

The two of them are realizing their long-cherished wishes in different ways. Wang Hao, one of the "Three Heroes" in others' words, is also working hard for his dream.

After the call with York, Wang Hao did not choose to follow St. England's large army. Instead, he chose to go out alone.

With his current strength, even if he can't defeat him, it's really not too difficult to escape.

------

Wang Hao drove the "Piaoxue" to Scapa Flow. Although he was not familiar with King Solomon's treasure, he had the experience of participating in similar large treasures and knew that these treasures were actually independent copies.

space.

To get the treasure inside, you not only need to defeat the treasure guardians, but also deal with players with ulterior motives.

The higher the level of the treasure, the better the reward, and the stronger the defender will be.

Although I don’t know the level of the treasure, I know that if a large number of players were not needed to deal with the guardians, the news about the treasure would not spread to all countries.

Most likely, the person who originally discovered the treasure had already tried and failed to pass the Guardian level, so they spread the news and wanted to gather everyone's strength to break through the Guardian level.

The actual situation was not much different from Wang Hao's expectation. When he arrived at the Orkney Islands in northern Scotland, tens of thousands of players from several Nordic countries had already appeared here.

In contrast, the British players closest to here are the fewest.

Wang Hao didn't know if it was a coincidence, or if someone deliberately missed the UK when spreading the news. Players in the UK had to go through players from other countries to make a move, so their reaction was naturally a bit slower.

If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to understand. After winning that historical battle, Britain became more and more powerful, and there were faint signs of restoring the empire on which the sun never sets. How could this not frighten other ambitious countries?

.

In addition, the location of Solomon's Treasure this time is very close to the UK, so it is not unreasonable for players from other countries to be wary of it.

However, understanding is understanding. When many nearby ships flying other national flags cast unkind glances, Wang Hao also felt a little uncomfortable.

Who told him that the flag of the British Empire was flying on the ship now?

There is nothing that can be done about this. Although his tax rate on trade in the UK is twice as high as that of others, objectively speaking, he has been able to get to this point and has indeed taken up a lot of British resources. Therefore, he should bear the responsibility

, and he will never shirk the blame.

At this time, the momentum cannot be weakened.

Facing those malicious looks, Wang Hao took off the disguise of the "Piaoxue".

This is a new service launched during the latest system update, mainly to provide some privacy protection for some celebrities.

There are some famous players in various countries around the world, and the appearance and style of their ships are widely known to players in their own countries. They will cause onlookers or make a sensation wherever they go. Over time, they will become annoying.

One of the official contents of this update is aimed at this point. By paying some gold coins, players can change the appearance of the ship within a certain time limit to avoid harassment.

Of course, it can only be disguised as a standard warship of the same level, and its hull attributes will remain unchanged.

Wang Hao is definitely well-known in the UK now, and the dark hull of the "Piaoxue" is so domineering and eye-catching. So when this service was first launched, he directly ordered a three-day trial.

One gold coin per day was a bit expensive, but it was still within his affordability.

The more direct benefit of disguise is that it provides high-end players with an opportunity to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger. Think about it when a otaku driving a diaosi boat next to you suddenly transforms into a man of the hour. Is this kind of contrast inevitable?

Very strong?

This also triggered a series of incidents involving sap and shady people behind the scenes.

For this reason, in subsequent updates, the official has increased restrictions on the camouflage service, such as not being allowed to be used in the arena, raising fees, reducing the camouflage time limit, etc.

Of course, this all happened later.

---

When Wang Hao took off his disguise and exposed the pitch-black ink-like hull of the "Piaoxue" to everyone's sight, the players who witnessed this scene couldn't help but gasp.

The first impression in their minds is not about who this player is, but the thought that this player is really rich.

Since the disguise service has just been launched, and the cost of one gold coin per day is a huge sum of money for most players, it is even the first time for many people to see players using the disguise service.

After the shock in their hearts subsided a little, they realized that the ship seemed familiar. Taking a closer look, it turned out that it was the protagonist in the video that had been plagiarized some time ago.

If the previously circulated videos only let European players know that there is a person like Wang Hao, but the latter's outstanding performance in historical battles were shown to the eyes of the world through the big screen. This really gained the attention of these players.

Recognition and praise.

Although Wang Hao has been somewhat quiet during this period, the two people from Germany and France have been so popular that every time players mention these two people, they will inevitably think of another person with the same name.

"It's Haotian, that's Piaoxue."

One player shouted loudly, with excitement on his face. If his friends hadn't stopped him, he might have approached him and asked for an autograph or something.

As Wang Hao became famous, some of his information was naturally known to the majority of players. He always maintained an attitude of letting nature take its course, neither trying hard to hide it nor actively publicizing it. He knew that the more he did such things, the more likely he would be.

Others who follow will be more interested.

This is not what he wants.

Some players of other nationalities who had glared at Wang Hao earlier lowered their heads in embarrassment. Even if they were personally dissatisfied, they could only curl their lips secretly.

In the game world where strength is valued, Wang Hao has won the respect of most people with his actions. You may not like him, but you cannot ignore his past achievements.

Especially some British individual players, as soon as they confirmed Wang Hao's identity, they seemed to have found a backbone, and spontaneously gathered around the latter, and their faces regained that unique British look.

Share pride.

PS: PS: First of all, I have to apologize to everyone. Last month, especially in the last few days, in order to get perfect attendance, I was a little hasty in keeping up with the new students, and there were some problems with the content. This is what I think this month, perfect attendance will not be

I’m forcing myself to write more every day if I have time, and less if I don’t have time, and try my best to ensure the quality of the article. What do you think?
