Chapter 230. Protecting Daydream
At dusk, in a cafe in the Mirage City.
The coffee shop had already hung up a closed for the time being sign. A girl with short hair that was neatly combed and dressed like an obedient girl was sitting at the table in her high school uniform, sipping coffee.
Her eyes glanced out of the window from time to time, as if she was waiting for someone.
"If no one comes in five minutes, add salt to their coffee." She snorted in dissatisfaction.
Rylai, who had just finished her work at the bar, pursed her lips and smiled, but did not say anything.
The sudden maintenance notice disrupted their plans, but a few minutes after they went offline, an xiaoguo dragged her here and informed the others.
It was summer vacation now. For an xiaoguo, a college student, this cafe had always been her stronghold. However, with the release of " fantasy world, " the number of times she called her friends here for meetings had decreased.
However, once they did, it meant that something big was about to happen.
About two to three minutes later, a few young people arrived one after another.
The three co-founders of Ghost Hunter, who were also a few of an xiaoguo's classmates, were Huangfu Shou, Ghost Lantern, Cold Moon, and Gong Zhu. In addition, there was also a delicate-looking, shy boy who was led by a long-legged hot girl.
Without a doubt, it was nelwin and Nino Saburo.
The latter was also their classmate. If it weren't for Shaya, an xiaoguo wouldn't have found out that they were in the same school as the wordless Sword Saint.
No one would have thought that this young man who blushed whenever he spoke was the number one player in the game.
The few people present also looked at each other. It could be said that half of the people in "fantasy world" were here.
This was a coincidence, but it was also inevitable.
All of them had more or less received help from Shaya, and in the early stages of the game, this sort of help that was comparable to external help was extremely precious.
Even Huangfu Shou and ghost lamp had only vaguely understood that " this game could be played this way " after hearing an xiaoguo's story about the rotten forest. Thus, they walked on a road that was brighter and brighter. Therefore, it was not wrong to say that the results of this room of people were closely related to Shire.
After a short exchange of pleasantries, an xiaoguo became serious, which was rare.
She knocked the porcelain cup with a small spoon to attract everyone's attention.
"What do you guys think about this sudden defense?"
it's just a game maintenance. Why are you being so serious? the server has probably been reserved by someone who wants to repair the air conditioner? " Ghost Lantern and cold Moon joked.
I also think it's strange, " said nelwin. don't you think that it's very unusual for the 'illusion workshop' to do such a sudden maintenance? "
it's true that they started the large-scale promotion a year ago, and the gimmick of 'one-year non-stop closed beta' attracted a lot of attention. Later, they targeted the high-income group and sold 'immersive' indoor tourism and massage equipment, winning the hearts of the middle-aged and elderly people, laying a solid foreshadowing for the sale of the game cabins. Then, half a year ago, they made a lot of money by limited pre-purchase of the game cabins. The 'illusion workshop' has always done things in a reasonable and steady way. The maintenance this time seems to be too rushed, huh? "
that's right. When they announced the closed beta, some people said that it was a financing trap, but the truth came one after another, and they were slapped in the face. It only took a year for the immersive experience to surpass traditional AR and VR by a whole Street. It's like we skipped the credit card stage and came directly to the era of e-finance. This is really too strong,"
Everyone was talking about how awesome the "illusion workshop" was. Seeing this, an xiaoguo knocked on the edge of her cup again.
I don't care about anything outside of the game. I'm more concerned about why they're maintaining it. "Guys, do you think it's related to my thigh?" she asked directly.
If the game's temporary maintenance was related to a player ...
This was really whimsical and too much praise for this fellow.
However, she was talking about Shaya, and everyone was a little uncertain.
The few people present had all participated in his terrifying plan and helped him withdraw more than a billion gold coins from the bank.
the announcement said that 'factions' are going to be activated. Do you think it's possible that the United Holy Kingdom is going to attack elfheim? " Rylai added in a low voice. Although her voice was soft, every word and sentence was very clear, and there was determination in her voice.
I don't know about other things, but Astan city has banned me from selling military runes above Class II, such as 'Armor Break',' silence', and 'bleed' to elven players. My workshop has also received a large number of orders for leather and cloth with the runes 'sky breaker III', hehe.
When she started this, everyone suddenly started to talk.
that's true. Our Guild's priest players have recently received a lot of missions to save slaves, and the targets are mostly injured and malnourished boys and girls. Although it had been cleaned up by the time we arrived at the scene, it still looked like a slave concentration camp that had just been blown up."
that's right. Things have changed in elfheim recently, and we can't participate as players for the time being. But some of the side quests are enough to reveal the tip of the iceberg. It seems like a big earthquake is about to happen.
"Speaking of which, I seem to have completed a few evacuation missions," Huangfu Shou said hesitantly."Does your Guild have a 'Skinner' called aistein? The thief series, the kind that causes a lot of blood loss in a fight?"
"Yes, didn't you meet a few days ago when you were doing a mission?" Nelwin replied.
I didn't remember it at that time, but it was only later on that I became dispirited. Huangfu Shou then began to tell a story.
It happened a few days after they took out the gold coins for Shaya. Huangfu Shou, who had a close reputation in the judgement church, suddenly received a series of missions to "cover the retreat of the church."
At first, he thought it was the same as before, a stronghold for the monsters to attack the church, and they were responsible for evacuating the NPCs.
However, when the mission began, he realized that something was wrong.
The ones who were chasing them were actually elves!
As they fought, a few of their guild members were killed by an elf, and they had to call for help. At this time, Huangfu Shou quickly went to help, and only then did he fight with alstein.
Although classic battles such as thieving techniques had always been on par with each other, and the outcome was highly dependent on one's own skills, Huangfu Shou was still the leader of a Guild. His equipment was much better than his opponent's, which was why he had forced aistein to retreat. Later, when he checked the battle log, he found that many of the elves were players born in elfheim.
Their goal was to kill these NPCs.
"A confrontation mission? Isn't that common?" Ghost Lantern asked, puzzled.
"No, this isn't an ordinary mission." Huangfu Shou's gaze was serious. in the past, there has never been a 'kill the players of the opposing faction to gain reputation' in the confrontation missions. This is a sign that a faction is about to be born.
After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
A foreboding atmosphere spread out from the game.
