Chapter 226 Scepter of the Earth--------Hu Gedi's Dark Shadow (Part 1 - Sneak into Hu Gedi (2))
.The dark shadow of the second chapter (Part 1 - Infiltrate Hugodi (2))
After nearly three days of rest, Chen Kai and the others continued to move forward quickly along the underground passage. In the remaining passage, the black-armored soldiers left enough marks, so Chen Kai and the others took almost no detours. But it was not that the road was smooth. Less than two days away from the exit, Chen Kai and the others encountered a team of black-armored soldiers again. These Hugodi City-Party soldiers wearing black armor almost rushed up with their weapons when they saw Chen Kai and the others.
Chen Kai didn't know why these black-armored soldiers knew him, because he had never appeared in Hugodi, and he had not found any wanted orders or pictures related to him on these black-armored soldiers. More importantly, Chen Kai almost always wore armor and helmet, and his whole face was hidden under the mask of the helmet, so he couldn't see Chen Kai's appearance clearly from the outside.
However, after seeing Chen Kai, the black-armored soldiers still put their first target on him. They almost didn't expect to raise their weapons and rushed towards him. However, these black-armored soldiers were shot by the heavy crossbow in Fei Yun's hand and directly formed a gourd.
Although the power of the heavy crossbow is so powerful that Chen Kai and the others are depressed that the enemies killed by the heavy crossbow will not give any experience, or they will not give any growth experience. After being seriously injured, they will only give one percent of the original experience. A 5th-level black-armored soldier had at least 3,000 points of experience, but now they have less than 40 points left.
However, Chen Kai would not regret those experiences. After becoming a senior knight, Chen Kai found that his system ranking was almost stable between the first and third pages of the ranking. Of course, this is mainly because players have encountered bottlenecks in leveling at this stage. Without large-scale combat and leveling scenarios, the player's level improvement has been suppressed by the system in disguise. Of course, more importantly, players are familiar with the fact that they have obtained various new powers of attributes after becoming a senior profession, and are working hard to learn more system knowledge.
Therefore, the player's level growth has fallen into a temporary stagnation. Chen Kai also has been unable to accumulate experience due to too many times of hang-ups. So far, he has only accumulated less than 20% of his experience. The gap between level 41 can hardly be calculated in tens of thousands. The experience requirement of nearly 3 million makes Chen Kai almost dazed at the experience slot.
Chen Kai estimated that with the current accumulation of experience, it would take at least half a year to become a low-level knight, and he would find a leveling point that can continuously brush monsters and experience tasks. Of course, if Chen Kai could complete the task he was doing now, the experience he gained alone would be enough to upgrade to one to two levels, and there would even be other better benefits.
Of course, the premise of all this is that Chen Kai can pass through Hugodi to the imperial capital, and Chen Kai found that he had always ignored the information about the politics of the mainland and the city-state lords in the temple. In the past, he always thought that the city-state lords in the game should be loyal to the empire, but now the city-state lord of Hugodi actually began to intercept an imperial noble, and even vaguely turned to evil forces. These situations caught Chen Kai off guard, because it meant that he might have to face the pursuit of a city-state corps.
"The city-state army, no matter how bad it is, it must have a 3,000-man army. If it is a military city like Adoric, there will be no regular army with 5,000 people." Chen Kai looked at the corpses of more than 20 black-armored soldiers opposite him and thought quietly. His brain was rotating at high speed, constantly thinking about information about Hugodi. He also collected all the information about Hugodi through the Internet, and also offered a reward online to collect all the recent situations of Hugodi in order to grasp all the situations of Hugodi in the shortest time.
Under the offensive of Chen Kai's scattering RMB, all Hugodi players quickly mobilized as long as they were short of money. In just less than half an hour, Chen Kai collected nearly 100,000 words of information and hundreds of mb pictures. At the same time, he also spent about twenty purple gold coins and equivalent RMB.
However, the results of the money-spending behavior are very amazing. Now Chen Kai has almost mastered all the situations of Hu Gedi. He knows everything about Hu Gedi except for the underwear that Hu Gedi City Lord wears. Even the city lord has a few mistresses and a few illegitimate children have been found out by players.
At the same time, Chen Kai also got a Hugodi entry and exit route map, including eight gates and twelve small gates and hundreds of private entrances and exits. On the map, Hugodi was a broken bucket that looked like an iron tube but was actually full of loopholes. Before getting the map, Chen Kai was worried about how to enter Hugodi after he could not find someone in the manor, but after getting the map, Chen Kai could even choose a road to enter the city under the nose of the Hugodi City Lord's Mansion without being discovered by the guards.
Of course, Chen Kai would not foolishly choose such a dangerous road, but chose a path that is not very tightly guarded and can be entered and exited at any time. At the same time, no less than three roads were marked on the map for escape. In order to choose these roads, Chen Kai and Xu Fei and others followed the map for nearly a night, and the eyes of several people were red like rabbits.
"How is that guy? Is that guy in the manor?" Chen Kai, wearing a tutu, hid in a rented carriage and asked Fei Yun who went to Havatiro Manor to inquire about the situation. At this time, it had been three days since they left the underground passage and entered Hugodi. For three days, Chen Kai and the others had been hiding and constantly inquiring about the news, and confirmed with the information collected on the Internet, finally determined the location of the Havatiro Knight Manor. At the same time, they also came here to find his son, including the noble lady who was said to have an affair with the city lord.
However, the name of the noble lady who made Chen Kai stranger was different from the name in the suicide note written by Havadiro, because the name of the man who was said to be Havadiro was Hellev Keram, while the suicide note of Havadiro was Hera Havailan. At the same time, Chen Kai and the others also found out that the attendant knight who is now the son of Havadiro was actually said to be one of the illegitimate sons of the city lord.
"Boss, do you think the son of the knight commander is not the guy we are looking for now, but the son of Hera Hawailan, the mistress," Fei Yun took off the cloak from his head and said to Chen Kai. Then he heard a slap in his body. It turned out that Chen Kai slapped his thigh heavily.
"Why didn't I expect it?" Chen Kai's thoughts suddenly became clear, but then he became depressed. Because he didn't know where Hera Hawayilan lived, he couldn't find her to confirm.
In the end, Chen Kai had no choice but to sprinkle gold coins on the Internet again to find out the situation. This is the easiest, most effective and fastest way. Chen Kai is not short of money now, the only thing he lacks is time. After all, the longer he stays in Hugodi, the more dangerous they are. The guards who are constantly patrolling and the information provided by the players confirmed that Hugodi was searching for a group of people and a group of travelers carrying precious items. The information released by the lord of Hugodi was that this group of people robbed a caravan and robbed him of the gifts he was preparing to pay tribute to the emperor.
Of course, players who have been in Hugodi for a while will not believe the words of the city lord, and even the aborigines living in Hugodi do not believe the nonsense of the city lord. According to the words of a certain player, a bartender is described as: "If I believe that a fat pig can speak human words, it would be better to make me believe that a donkey will turn into a horse" (ps: Most of the aborigines of Hugodi privately call the city lord a fat pig, or of course, the breeding pig is also called a stallion)
Most players think that the city lord should have peeped at the treasures carried by the travelers and released such deceptive words. Therefore, many players have joined the search for strange travelers. However, most of the time they focus on the indigenous people and rarely pay attention to the players, so Chen Kai and the others have a chance to breathe.
On the forum's web page, Chen Kai quickly opened Hu Gedi's city page, entered the indigenous information he wanted to find in the search option, and paid nearly 1,000 gold coins in advance. In less than ten minutes, Chen Kai received no less than 30 information replies. After the system automatically screened the ten addresses that met the standards were recorded by Chen Kai. At the same time, the system also sent out the rewards of players who provided accurate information, and the whole process only took twenty minutes.
"Okay, clean up and prepare to go to the city. Let's go to the first target person, En... Yilan Hotel, it seems that this is a hotel owner's wife." Chen Kai shared the information he collected with everyone in the team. The information includes the appearance and residence address of the boss. Of course, there is no content.
"It just so happened that I haven't taken a shower for a long time. I hope there is hot water in that hotel." Several girls said happily. For them, not taking a shower for a few days is far more important than finding a mission goal.
"It's better to be careful according to the sign on the map. This hotel is very close to the street. I guess there will be soldiers checking. Remember those black-armored soldiers? We didn't show our faces at all and they waved their weapons to kill us. I guess they mastered some detective spells." Su Xinghe carefully looked through the map and said. After he finished speaking, everyone fell into a brief silence, while Zhao Tiezhu walked slowly towards Hugodi City in a carriage.
"Dongdongdongdongdong" Less than 300 meters away from the city wall, Chen Kai and the others slowly walked out of the carriage and knocked on the door of a dilapidated house on the side of the road. After knocking three times in a row, each time it was three long and two short, the door that seemed to fall back at any time finally opened. Then Chen Kai and the others quickly entered the door, and the carriage was handed over to the owner of the house to handle.
"Remember, it costs ten gold coins to enter the city. I don't care what you do. I'll be honest with me when I get here." The owner of the house, a dwarf with a fierce face, shouted at Chen Kai and the others, and his huge voice shocked the dust on the roof kept falling.
"First pay the money first and go in one by one. Don't touch it when you get inside, just follow the mark." After seeing Chen Kai and the others nodding, the dwarf walked to the edge of a bed with one leg, quickly lifted the bed board, and turned the rocker under the bed board to reveal the tunnel on the ground.
After paying the toll of ten gold coins per person, Chen Kai and the others entered this secret passage that was found out from the players. An illegal underground passage dedicated to smuggling merchants and underworld thugs entering and leaving Hugodi, and connecting a blacksmith shop in Hugodi City is also the safest of dozens of passages.
The nearly one kilometer underground passage is built on the ground more than ten meters away from the ground. The entire passage is very narrow and is said to be built with the shape of a dwarf. However, Chen Kai should have been built according to the shape of a goblin or a dwarf, because he could only lie on the ground and crawl slowly before moving forward. Even if his body was bent, he would touch the top of the tunnel.
"This damn authentic tunnel." After walking out of the tunnel entrance, Chen Kai spat hard and ran to the edge of the pool to scrub his palms. Because while crawling in the passage, Chen Kai accidentally pressed a piece of shit that a bastard pulled in the passage.
Therefore, after leaving the tunnel, Chen Kai's first thing was to curse the tunnel, and then quickly rushed to the pool of the blacksmith shop to rinse his palm with yellow poop. However, after cleaning it for more than ten times in a row, Chen Kai could still smell the faint stench from his palm.
"Pillar! Find the owner of the blacksmith shop to repair the equipment. If the shield cannot be repaired, let him go back to the furnace and recast a piece of Xiaofei. Go and inquire about the situation of the Spell Association. The fourth brother, go to the thief guild to find out the situation. Remember to be careful~ I will gather at the Yilan Hotel in the evening and we will set off now." After sorting out the luggage, Chen Kai and the others quickly divided into several teams and slowly integrated into the crowd on Hugodi Street according to their different goals. Chen Kai carefully left the blacksmith shop and turned into a hidden alley with Su Xinghe, Chen Yi and Wang Feifei.
Chen Kai knew that in fact, he was the most eye-catching target in the entire team, not only because of the giant sword behind him, but also his face. Although Hugodi City did not post his wanted order, Chen Kai had reason to believe that the guards had already mastered his portrait. Maybe as long as Chen Kai was seen by the guards, he would be surrounded by hundreds of soldiers. After hearing the various rumors about the lord of Hugodi City, Chen Kai was very sure of his thoughts.
Although there are no rumors of the city lord infringing on players, he has done no bad things at all. Basically, the two people that the indigenous people in Hugodi City hate the most should be the city lord himself, except for the tax collector.
Walking in the dark alley, Chen Kai finally understood why Hu Gedi was associated with medieval European towns in the players' evaluation. There was almost no other city holding neat alleys here. The whole city gave people a feeling of dirty and messy, and various characters kept shuttled through every corner of the city. While Chen Kai and Su Xinghe and the others were walking, they encountered at least ten robberies and beat at least thirty thieves.
All kinds of messy characters are constantly walking through the alley, and there are even legendary secret prostitutes. Of course, these are not open to players. Even if some players who can't help but temptation pay, they will find that they seem to have encountered physical obstacles.
However, Hu Gedi's dirty mess provided good cover for Chen Kai and the others. At least their black cloak would not look so eye-catching in the alley. After all, the gangsters and beggars lying on the edge of the stinky ditch were the only ones who did not wear cloaks in the whole alley, and the rest were those pale poor people.
After walking through several alleys, Chen Kai and the others finally reached their first goal, Yilan Hotel located in the eastern part of Hugodi City. According to the information provided by the players, the owner of the hotel's owner was named Ms. Hera Hawailan, and she also brought a child who was about teenagers in her grade.
Looking at the hotel located on the commercial street, Chen Kai and the others carefully avoided the city guards like gangsters and slowly walked into the hotel. The moment they entered the hotel, Chen Kai knew that his mission seemed to be settled, because he saw a young man who looked very similar to Havadiluo walking through the crowd. However, his current situation was very inconsistent with the information provided in the information, because according to the information provided by the player, the son of the hotel owner should be in the aristocratic school of Hugodi, rather than being a waiter here.
Although Chen Kai felt very strange, he did not interrupt the other party's plan to work, but asked Chen Yi to go to the counter and rented several rooms and ordered a large number of supplies. The most important thing was to order a full twelve servings of dinner, and he also assigned the waiter to deliver the dishes. When he left, Chen Kai threw a gold coin to the waiter who was very similar to Havadiro as a tip for the early payment.
However, Chen Kai did not notice that when he left the hall and walked towards his room, the hotel owner's wife walked into the kitchen and said a few words to a servant inside. Then the servant walked out of the hotel quickly and headed towards the city lord's mansion to the west.
An hour later, everyone returned to the hotel with the purchased items. At the same time, Chen Kai also notified the hotel owner's wife to ask her to deliver the ordered dinner. When leaving the counter, Chen Kai found that the hotel owner's eyes were a little strange. Although there was a smile on his face, it seemed that there was a strange feeling lurking in the smile.
"Sir, this is your dinner, now you're all served." The waiter who looked a little similar to Havadiro respectfully saluted Chen Kai and put down the last dish that Chen Kai ordered. When he saw several girls wearing simple silk dresses, the young waiter couldn't help but blushed, and then quickly lowered his head to exit the room.
"Sorry, can you please wait a moment?" Chen Kai called out to him the moment the other party exited the room, but his actions made the other party feel very strange.
"Do you need something else?" In the eyes of the waiter, Chen Kai called out to him because he wanted to order something.
"Don't be nervous, I just want to ask your name." Chen Kai tried his best to slow down his tone, but he, wearing a cloak, could not give people a sense of safety no matter how he looked at it.
"Havadis? Di? Yilan" waiter was stunned for a moment when he heard Chen Kai's words, but then he calmly said his name.
"Then is your mother called Hera? Hawailand?" Chen Kai's tone improved a little, and his tone was strangely excited.
"Yes, is there any problem?" The young waiter named Havadis felt very strange, but then he was stunned because Chen Kai found a broken aristocratic badge. He had seen the badge, which was secretly told by his mother that he knew that he was the illegitimate son of an old knight named Havadiro, and that he was the most shameful illegitimate son of a illegitimate son of a servant.
"Who are you?" Looking at the broken noble badge, the waiter who was originally very respectful became very serious. He was very scared. He was afraid that Chen Kai and the others were sent to kill his killer, because there had been no news for the old knight who originally blessed them and their mother and son.
"Don't worry, I will help you leave here at the request of the Knight Havadiro, tell me now, are you his son?" Chen Kai slowly took off his cloak hat, revealing his face, and showing his noble emblem.
"I am," Havadis said in a painful tone. He knew what it means to come here with this emblem. It means that the old knight who has been protecting the mother and son, that is, his own father may have encountered misfortune.
"Hurry up, those guys are on it." When Chen Kai was very happy to say to Havadis, a rapid sound came from the corridor outside the room, accompanied by the sound of many weapons.
"Damn it must be Aunt Helala who notified the guards." After seeing Chen Kai's appearance, Havadis immediately thought of the portrait of the hotel owner, that is, his aunt Helala. He knew that his greedy aunt must have reported Chen Kai and the others to the guards as suspects, and is now bringing soldiers towards here.
