Chapter 151 Stowaways
"Do you know what the name Wanbeast Wujiang means?" the boss asked meaningfully.
"Isn't it the name of the owner of Wanzhou Villa?" a player replied.
"No." Another player said: "I remember a long time ago, among the three major gangs in the Western Continent, there was a Wanbeasts and Border Alliance. I heard that it was forced to disband after being frustrated. Could it be that the Wanbeasts Villa is the Wanbeasts and Border Alliance in the past?"
"That's right." Someone nodded and said, "The Wanwan Border Alliance has a strong relationship with Lingyun Pavilion and Longteng in the west. The Blood Alliance is also good with them. These three gangs are enough to help Wanwan Villa develop after they reach the West."
"Not just." The boss laughed: "Don't you know that Wanzhou Wujie, the boss of Wanzhou Villa, is actually the blood-stained territory in the past? Which company did he join after being washed away by black? "
"Free Industry?" Someone reacted.
"Devil's House!" The answer was finally answered.
"It seems that there are many players who want to join in the fun." Ghost Wolf stood at the bow of the ship and said to me with a smile.
"It's normal." I looked at the players behind the fleet, who were following the fleet from afar or near, shrugged his shoulders and said, "But they won't be able to follow them for a long time, and after entering the mission point, they can't get in."
If any player can travel across the East and West continents by boat, what else do you have to do with the Silk Road mission?
Everyone knows that as long as you travel through that endless ocean, you can reach the other side of the world, but no one can do that without the support of the system.
Some players once made such a guess. If at a certain period of time, the player's strength is really strong and no longer afraid of the monsters on the sea. In addition to having enough time, they may be able to travel across the East and West Continents. However, such speculation was quickly overturned. Because in the sea, in addition to high-level monsters, there are many factors that cannot be controlled by level. For example, the sea storm...
Since this is a game, everything must be subject to the system's arrangements and system settings. In addition to the ark, the Silk Road can also become another channel connecting the East and West continents, so players must abide by this rule. Players cannot break this rule, otherwise, this will not be a game.
Looking at the blue sea and the familiar scenery around me, I will soon find the first target of the Maritime Silk Road route - the Dragon King barrier.
The Dragon King barrier is not a monster area, but a portal-like thing. If there is no systematic Silk Road merchant ship, even if the player arrives in this place, he will not be able to see anything. Once we players who have taken the Silk Road mission will be immediately teleported to another game area. Only there is the real road leading from the sea to the west. Only there can we truly cross the ocean and reach the distant shore.
There was no abnormality when crossing this barrier. All players participating in this mission only saw a light curtain similar to the sunset flashing by. Then there was nothing left.
The sea is still so wide, and the sea breeze still stirs up the full sails. The scenery around seems to have not changed at all. Only the small arrow on the map that points out where the Western continent is located can prove that we have indeed reached a completely different sea area.
This mission will last for a whole month, which means that once you enter the Dragon King barrier, we players will spend a month on the sea.
During this period, players can go offline, but cannot return to the city. When we go online again, they will still appear on the ship and continue to sail with the fleet. However, there is a prerequisite, that is, at least more than ten players stay, otherwise the mission will fail.
For the Oriental fleet, which has brought four or five thousand players, ten players are really insignificant. We discussed and everyone took turns to take a break to ensure the normal navigation of the ship.
Another point is that we will still encounter monster attacks during the voyage. However, with high-level NPCs, we only need to cooperate with some simple battles, and the task is not too difficult to complete.
There is only one limitation, that is, no one can die. Because there are no resurrection points on the ship, the resurrection points of players who die in this sea area will be in Yangzhou City. That is to say, until the next time the Silk Road fleet is set off, he will no longer have the chance to board these ships.
I really can't be interested in such a long-distance mission. The several sea monsters I blasted out in a row were bombarded by NPCs. What I left for the players were just some small fish and shrimps, which were less than level 30, so they were not enough to get stuck in the teeth.
Since I have entered the balanced route, I should have taken off the line and rested. After dark, the weakness of the ghost clan disappeared and I will be on duty again.
**The moonlight shines calmly on the sea surface. The blue sea water is like a piece of solidified glass, reflecting the lights on the boat, like a quiet and harmonious landscape painting.
I sat at the stern of the system flagship, on a small platform near the warehouse, next to me was an oil lamp with crystal windshields inlaid, and a few grinder snacks.
In my hand, there was an antelope horn that had not been processed. I stared blankly at the waves drawn by the hull on the sea surface. I lifted the carving knife several times, but I still didn't know what to carve.
Almost all of my companions were concentrated on the deck, where there were several fishing experts competing for fishing skills. The fish caught in the deep sea were particularly delicious, so naturally a few senior chefs were indispensable to cook the best food for everyone on the spot and held another cooking competition.
Whenever a fish is caught, there will always be a shocking cheer on the boat. Even the surrounding cargo ships cannot help but approach here, sharing the joy of the sea night.
"Brother Yasha! What are you doing there? Come and see, Brahma actually caught a crystal lobster!" Shuang Feiyu's voice came from the front, and then joined the cheers of everyone.
I responded casually, packed up my things around me, and prepared to walk along the side of the boat to the deck.
"Cough cough!" A slight cough came from the warehouse. Then there was a tiny sound, as if something had spilled on the ground.
It's so late, who is still in the warehouse? Logically speaking, except for the guy who doesn't like to be in the same group, no player will miss the activities on the deck and run here alone to hide. The person in the warehouse will definitely not be in the warehouse. Because when that guy went offline, he said that he had something to do tonight and would not go online, and even the task on duty was handed over to Xiao Wangliang.
I thought about it and kicked my right leg. I pretended to accidentally kicked open the door of the warehouse, then walked forward for a while, then opened the sneak and touched it quietly, and got into the warehouse.
The moonlight shone through the open warehouse door to this dark little room. Although it was not so bright, it was enough for me to see everything here.
Behind the two big wooden boxes that were tall one person, a figure was moving in panic. Looking at the movement, it seemed to be cleaning the garbage left on the ground.
He looked around from time to time, and his movements were very central. If it weren't for the cough just now, I would almost never have noticed that there was still someone hiding here.
He obviously does not belong to our gangs, but I have seen this player, right at the entrance of the library of the guijie Department. He is the one who was caught in the guijie Department and squatting in the guijie Department for a long time because of his loud noise in the guijie Department.
"Yasha! Where have you been?" The Ghost Wolf's voice came from behind, as if he was approaching here. The player trembled slightly, and a white light flashed, and it actually came down from the original site.
Humph, I can escape the first day of the lunar month, but I can't hide from the fifteenth day. I don't believe it. How long can you hide on this boat?
After canceling the stealth state, I turned around to face the ghost wolf who had found the warehouse.
"What are you hiding here?" Guilang held Ye Mingzhu with one hand and pushed open the half-closed warehouse door with the other hand, bent down and said to me, "Baifeng and Pengfei made a good dish alone, waiting for you to come up and taste it."
"Pengfei can cook even?" I asked in surprise.
"You don't know this, right?" An Luohong showed half of her head from behind the ghost wolf and said with a smile: "I think my grilled fish skills are good enough. If you go and try Brother Pengfei, that's awesome."
"It's even better than what I baked?" Ye Fantian's voice suddenly rang on the side of the ship.
"Of course not!" An Luohong said firmly, turning around in horror, throwing something into the warehouse, and blocking the gap at the door with her body. She said with a smile: "What my wife makes is always the best."
The ghost wolf and I fell on the black thing on the ground, and a familiar smell came from our noses.
This... I really have seen this thing. It's just from the female yaksha! It's rare to have a bit of creativity this time. I didn't roast the whole fish, leaving half of the bloody fish head outside, so that we won't mistake the game for some special weapon.
"Where is the fish?" Ye Fantian's voice became closer and he asked loudly: "Don't let me notice that you threw the fish into the sea, otherwise I will never end up with you."
"How can it be!" An Luohong stuck to the door of the warehouse tightly and spread his hands in front of Ye Fantian and said, "I'm really finished eating. If you don't believe me, look at the sea, it seems like something is thrown down? If something falls down, at least it will have some water ripples."
"You know what you know." Ye Fantian said angrily. Then he shook his nose a few times and asked in confusion: "If you really finish eating, how could the taste be so strong? Have you hidden the thing in the boat?"
"No!" An Luohong put one hand on his back and waved it desperately for a while. I showed a knowing smile at the ghost wolf. I reached out to pick up the scorched fish on the ground, shook my arms, and threw it out from the small window on the other side of the warehouse. As soon as the movement was completed, the female Yasha pushed away the ghost wolf's An Luohong and squeezed in.
"Huh? Yasha, why are you here? Pengfei said just now that if you give him another vine fruit, he can cook the fish even better."
"Oh?" I glanced at An Luohong with a nervous look inward from behind. I blinked at him, and winked at the small window that "destroyed corpse and traces". I said with a smile: "Since that's the case, I have to try it. If I dare to waste my good things, I will tell that kid to have enough food to take a walk."
As I said that, I stepped out of the warehouse and pulled the door casually. Before leaving, I looked at the place where the player had sat before. There was still a pool of water stains on the ground and traces of being rubbed.
**Early morning is the quietest time.
After a night of carnival, even if the players of the Oriental Fleet did not go offline, they would return to their own ship warehouses, practice their life skills, or invite a few friends to go to the larger warehouse to practice martial arts. On the deck, there were only a few players, gathering in groups of three or three, chatting, drinking, and the boat was on the cold deck, blowing a salty sea breeze. He looked up and admired the pure sky.
In the flagship warehouse, a black shadow appeared quietly between two large wooden boxes.
He carefully poked his head out, looked to the left and right sides, and after confirming that there was no one around, he sat back on the floor, took out a piece of paper from his backpack and spread it on the ground. Although the moonlight was bright, it was obviously not enough to see what was on the paper clearly. He had to try to lower his head and put the paper as much as possible to the moonlight. He stretched out his fingers to gesture something.
A sea breeze blew, and the warehouse door made two "ticacas" sounds. A small crack was opened with a creaking sound. The black shadow quickly put away the paper on the ground and shrank its head behind the box like a frightened rabbit.
Everything was still so quiet, and two loud laughs could be heard from time to time on the deck not far away. Obviously no one noticed everything in the warehouse.
After a while, the black shadow once again came in through the gap in the wooden box, repeating the previous action.
"It hurts your eyes when you look at things like this. I'll lend you a lamp." A cold voice sounded in the narrow warehouse, and the bright lights suddenly shone brightly around, and also illuminated the panicked face.
"What? Isn't it bright enough? Maybe the hundreds of fucking bullets in the flagship hall can make you see more clearly." A player in a black robe leaned obliquely beside the wooden box, holding an oil lamp with a crystal-encrusted windshield in one hand and a fire spirit talisman in the other.
The black shadow was obviously stunned before, quickly putting the things in his hand into his backpack, preparing for the next move. The voice rang again. "Do you want to go offline? Or do you think your movements can be faster than me when I launch the fire spirit talisman? It doesn't matter if you are faster than me. When you go online next time, you may be able to catch up with the cocktail party being held here."
"What do you want to do?" The black shadow knew that he could not escape, so he lowered his hand in disappointment, saying that he would no longer attempt to get off the line and escape.
"This question is so strange." I smiled and kicked the wooden box behind me, hung the oil lamp on the nail on the wall, and turned around and said, "I am a member of the Silk Road mission, and now I am on the night shift. And I found a strange player who does not belong to this mission team on the boat under my jurisdiction. What do you think I want to do?"
The player in front of him shrugged and felt that his question was a bit boring. Of course, my explanation was even more boring.
"Who are you? Why did you appear here?" I turned my tone and looked coldly at the boy in the warehouse. As long as he said a wrong word, the fire spirit talisman held in his hand could kill him.
"Don't... don't do it." The player raised his hand, signaling that he had no malice, and said in a low voice: "Brother, let me go, don't tell the people outside, I'm just following the fleet to do a mission. I have absolutely no other intention, and I will not destroy your Silk Road mission."
"Your mission needs to go to the Western continent?" I asked.
The guy kept rolling his eyes and hesitated: "This..."
"Boy, don't play tricks in front of me." I raised my legs and blocked the door of the warehouse. I changed to Zhang Shuling Talisman and held it in my hand. I sneered and said, "If you don't tell the truth, I don't mind throwing you into the sea and letting you swim back slowly."
You must not be able to go back, but you die in the sea, so you can go back to the city.
"I can tell you, but can you guarantee not to tell others?" The player sighed with his fate and said to me in a low voice.
"Let me tell me, maybe I can think about it." I looked at the player with a blank expression, neither saying agree nor disagree.
In fact, as long as he is really not malicious, it will not affect the mission, and even if he takes a player to the Western Continent, there will be no problem. However, the method he adopts is not very acceptable. If this guy's sincere apology attitude made me still have a good impression of him, I would have killed him back to the city as early as when I first discovered him.
