The orcs in Buck City are either dull or respectful. They are not as...well, lively as Duoduo, and they are not so beautiful, in line with human aesthetics.
With a fortune as big as Newman's caravan, it was said that it was going to Punk City to open up trade routes, but it would not be possible in a short time. The trio plus an orc girl, wandered around inside, and finally came out of the camp after they were exhausted.
, continue to move towards the Rock Fortress.
On the way, the three of them commented on and greeted their new companions. The more they looked at them, the more they fell in love with them. The more they got along with each other, the more they were conquered by the pity and cuteness of Duoduo, who were like "little animals".
"Ah, what a poor little boy!"
Xia Miaomiao couldn't help but hug the orc girl and touch her cat ears. The soft and warm skin felt really good.
Gee, how can petting a cat be so comfortable?
This is the picture...
"Hey, hey, hey, you took advantage of Duoduo again, rotten girl!" Fan Chaoyue pulled Duoduo out of Xia Miaomiao's clutches in dissatisfaction and yelled.
"What's so rotten? It's so rotten. You have dirty thoughts and you're still calling me out!"
"Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. Duoduo is mine and I paid for it."
"Tch, it's great to be rich. You didn't buy it as a gift. Duoduo also has my share!"
"You... are shameless. Duoduo was obviously me at the beginning..."
"Yeah, it's urgent, it's urgent, the big star is urgent..."
"I want to break up with you!"
"If we break up with each other, we'll break up with each other, and Duoduo will give me back!"
"No!"
"If you don't give it to me, grab it!"
"...Xue Wu, why don't you take care of her quickly!"
Du Shiyu rolled her eyes, rescued the frightened orc girl who dared not move from the clutches, and comforted her softly, "You continue, pretend I don't exist."
Xia Miaomiao: "Who would care about her?"
Fan Chaoyue: "Ignore it, ignore it. From now on, you walk on your Yangguan Road and I walk on my single-plank bridge. Let's go back to the bridge and go back to the road!"
"Then why are you still following me!?"
"You are the one following me!"
"Where are you going when I go to Rock Fortress?"
"I'm... naive!"
"If you can't say it, it's a personal attack!"
"You...are so angry with me, Xuewu, it's me but not her today!"
Du Shiyu walked in front of the orc girl without hearing anything, and explained in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, they are just like this, they don't mean any harm."
"……Meow!"
"Wow, Duoduo screamed, Duoduo screamed, thank God, I thought she was mute"
"I heard it too, it's so cute and cute...oh, why does it sound like a cat?"
"Catwoman, it must be...Dodo is not a retarded person, right?"
"You are the retarded one. Why do you say such things to others?"
Du Shiyu looked at the orc girl in surprise, maybe because she was not as startled as the two best friends, which gave Duoduo a sense of security, so after the orc girl's eyes dodged several times, she bravely came up to meet her.
Looking at each other.
At this time the system prompt comes.
[Half-orc Duoduo’s favorability towards you +10]
[The relationship with the special humanoid NPC Duoduo has advanced to ‘accidental encounter’]
"Meow!?"
Xia Miaomiao: "Wow, it's here again, it's here again, my heart is going to melt."
Fan Chaoyue: "Xuewu, why are you standing there in a daze?"
Du Shiyu put away the surprise in her eyes, and for Duoduo's sake, she was not going to tell them about the system prompt she had just received.
Having Duoduo adds a lot of color to the rest of the trip.
The desolate and cruel battlefield ruins no longer look so desolate, cruel and terrifying because of them.
Outside the continuous city wall, three people...oh, no, it should be four people looked up at the ruins not far away, looking at the large craters that were blown up and down the city wall, feeling...particularly shocking.
The real battlefield cannot be restored by any realistic movie scene. It is still the kind of war in the medieval century with real guns and real swords. In such a scene, even if it is taken care of by the centaurs, it still makes people feel uncomfortable.
People were shocked and speechless.
There weren't many skeletons around the fortress, but the dried blood formed dark patches on the ground, just like the ugly scabs formed by wounds, silently telling the cruelty of that time.
The city gate was destroyed, and the magic patterns on the city wall were 'short-circuited' due to overload. The holes above were dug out of magic reserve materials, such as magic stones, mica, etc. When you walk in, you will see that all the buildings inside the fortress are all
They were pushed down, and the fire burned everything that could be ignited. Several carrion-eating [black-toothed birds] were alarmed by them, flew up with croaking sounds, and landed on a ruins. One of them still held a withered eyeball in its mouth...
…
"You...new here?"
There are other players in the fortress, and there are quite a few of them. They are wandering in groups of three and five in the ruins, picking and choosing without knowing what they are doing.
A dwarf player blocked the way and asked in a rather unkind tone.
"What are you doing!?" Xia Miaomiao turned aside to block the orc girl behind her.
The dwarf player didn't notice Duoduo and said impatiently: "There are newly sent NPCs over there who are building a safe zone and have missions."
"Can you be so kind?"
"Nonsense, who will care about you if you don't have a mission?"
After saying that, the dwarf player left.
"A task is a task, why is it so bad?"
Fan Chaoyue said: "It must be a mandatory task with low pay, which makes me so impatient."
"Let's go, let's go, go pick up the mission." Xia Miaomiao became extremely anxious when she heard there was a mission.
"Don't worry, let's go around and feel the situation first before talking." Du Shiyu said.
"What's there to see in this damn place? It's all ruins and dead people. The system doesn't provide mosaics anymore. Really..."
"Also, the money given to us by the system is still fake."
"Yes, that's right. If you didn't tell me, I almost forgot. The NPCs in the money-neutral camp of the system don't recognize it. So many good and cheap things can't be bought. It's really annoying."
"If you can buy it, then that's a loophole. How much profit can you make by reselling it? Can the system allow you to do this?"
"Too……"
The Newman Caravan that just left cannot only provide slave trading and romantic entertainment services. It also provides some things that players like to see and see. It also provides some customized services, including skilled blacksmiths and tailors, and the prices are as if they are free.
It's a pity that they don't recognize the system's money.
Speaking of this, Xia Miaomiao became indignant. She took out a copper coin and bumped it, feeling light and light.
Money made of wood!?
Is there something wrong with the dog planner to fool us like this?
Precious metals such as gold, silver, and copper are the basic materials for refining fine gold and mithril. The latter has magical "superconducting" properties. Hot mithril mines are very rare. There is a special alchemy technique to refine gold and silver into mithril. Naturally, it is not
It may be made into coins for players to use.
However, this can also be understood as an 'anti-theft' design. There is a huge gap between the prices within the system and the prices outside the system. If it can really be circulated, it will be awesome... It's so cool!?
Oh, money, money, go over there and get some money, it's almost time to pay back the interest.
She was worried about the debts she owed. Although the rewards she gained from exploring along the way were good, they were only at a normal level. People say that a horse does not grow fat without a night of grass, so it would be a windfall for her if she needed it.
But where can I find this windfall?
It seems pretty good to resell materials inside and outside the system.
But the system’s money-neutral camp doesn’t recognize it…
Sigh, then I don’t need the system’s money. I can collect gold coins, silver coins, and copper coins, ore, and then find life players to refine them!
The system's ore purchase price is so low, it will not be difficult to receive it if it is slightly increased.
Many blacksmith professional players do this, why can't I?
Using the precious metals obtained by refining the ores, wouldn't it make money recognized by the neutral camp?
Ah, I am so smart.
What should I do, what should I do, it seems like I can make a fortune?
If I hadn't told Xiaoyu...
Forget it, let's wait until it's done, be careful of the news leaking...
"Why are you smiling like a fox? Have you thought of something good again?"
"Ah, no, no!"
Fan Chaoyue: "She must have thought of some bad idea. Again, Duoduo is mine, mine."
This time Xia Miaomiao did not refute, she was feeling guilty, for fear that her new idea of making money would be seen.
The fortress is now in complete ruins. Judging from the scale of the ruins, it can be seen that this was once a prosperous, populous, and heavily guarded border city that was larger than Punk City.
Naturally, there was not a single person left. Considering the reputation of the Centaur tribe for cannibalism, it was not necessary to think about what happened next.
Players don't care about these, they are just the background of the world in the eyes of players, so the players they see only focus on their own affairs, which is the mission.
It is necessary for the system to establish a safe zone here. All newly lit maps will have a safe zone. The most important facility in the safe zone is naturally teleportation.
What players are looking for in the ruins is the most basic material for making teleportation arrays, stone slabs.
Complete slate.
This thing is not difficult to find in the ruins, but the work is tiring, has no technical content, and the corresponding rewards are small. However, it is the precursor to a series of tasks, just like showing the way for new players.
Mandatory.
After walking around in the ruins, the three of them plus an orc girl didn't find anything. Even the original city lord's palace was still worth seeing. As for another better-preserved building - the temple of the goddess of the night, it has been systematized.
It is a forbidden area and players are prohibited from approaching it.
Many players are curious about such a ban. It’s not that no one wants to sneak in to see if there are any undiscovered treasures. However, this time, the ban is extremely strict. It actually monitors the words and deeds of the players throughout the process. As soon as they approach the restricted area, there will be bright red lights.
Warning words will appear in the field of vision, and those who insist on going their own way will be kicked off the line.
Damn, so mysterious?
Under such strict orders, there are no loopholes to exploit.
Du Shiyu and the others finished the fortress and learned this from other players, so they went to the safe area designated by the system to prepare for the mission.
Among the cleared ruins, a flat open space about the size of a football field has been cleared. An intelligent NPC is facing a 'casting spell' and sees the building materials collected by the players flying automatically.
Starting from the beginning, for some reason, the originally gray stone slabs became as smooth as new, with various fine and complicated magic patterns appearing on them. Just like a puzzle, they automatically fell on the flat ground. After a flash,
, as if growing on it.
The teleportation array under construction is surrounded by various squares drawn. In the future, system function stores will be built at these locations, so the security zones are almost the same. After looking at them for a while, Du Shiyu and the others lost interest.
After finding the NPC who posted the mission and taking over all the missions, the three of them took the timid orc girl straight to the mission location.
After moving a heavy boulder, Xia Miaomiao wiped away the non-existent sweat and her eyes rolled around.
If the safe zone is built, it will be easier to implement his plan to make a fortune. But if the Newman Caravan is going to Punk City, will other players discover this way?
Sure, there are so many smart people.
Then you have to hurry up and get back quickly before the caravan sets off.
But what excuse should I use?
What the hell kind of mission is this? It's all about hard work.
"Wow, Duoduo is so strong, look at it..."
Fan Chaoyue pointed at Catwoman who was lifting a big stone and shouted, the stone obviously did not match her body shape.
Catwoman was frightened and dropped the rocks. With a bang, the ground shook.
"Uh... Duoduo, it seems like he's not an ordinary... half-orc?" Du Shiyu pushed Xia Miaomiao, "What do you think?"
"Ah... I just need to be stronger. I can also lift this stone."
"You're already level 20, so your strength attribute is 12, right?"
"14, the equipment has been increased by 2 points."
"Again...you practiced again?"
"What? I don't have time. You forgot about a pair of wristbands that exploded on the road."
"...You really forgot if you didn't tell me."
Fan Chaoyue said: "I haven't forgotten, I haven't forgotten. Green wristbands are rare now. Remember to pay us back."
"Money, money, money, you know money, don't worry, I won't miss a word from you... That Xiaoyu, I have to go back early if I have something to do."
"Go back, go back there?"
"Punk City, Dawn Town"
"Why are you in such a hurry? You still have a guide mission to complete?"
"I was coming back before the mission started... It's Chun Shui. Oh, it's really troublesome. He privately told me that he found a family base and asked me to go back and refer to it."
Du Shiyu put down the stone, clapped his hands, and looked at his best friend suspiciously, "Why didn't the family say anything about this?"
"There are many people talking about this kind of thing, and there are different opinions. Naturally, a few backbones have to discuss it first and then discuss it."
Fan Chaoyue: "Are you still a core member? A founding member?"
Xia Miaomiao ignored her, "He also specifically asked me not to tell others. He seemed very mysterious."
When she said this, Du Shiyu believed her. Because it was a lie that could be easily exposed, she didn't think too much about it. "Then you should go back first. Anyway, the game time is coming soon. We will discuss it after we go offline."
"What are we discussing?"
Fan Chaoyue: "They asked you to refer to the family residence. You must want us to become the founding members, stupid!"
Xia Miaomiao couldn't bear it anymore: "Fan Chaoyue!"
"You called me by my real name again...Xia Miaomiao!"
"Childish, a big star can be so childish!"
"University teachers are not much better, they are misleading students!"
"Let's go, let's go!" Du Shiyu looked like she had a headache. "My ears are buzzing from your noise every day. Leave early and be quiet early."
After saying that, I turned around and caught Duoduo lowering her head to suppress a smile, which made her heart move.
Xia Miaomiao seemed to have been granted amnesty, but she still had to worry about Catwoman, as her thoughts were completely occupied by her plans to make a fortune.
