Chapter 127 Caravan
In fact, in addition to taking away three heads and killing the three players of the Bloody Heaven, Gu Cheng also lost his equipment, but the best one flashed with a green light, so Gu Cheng did not pick up the equipment. After all, NPCs that can kill players are common, but NPCs that can pick up players' equipment are rare. If the suspected investigation of the Bloody Heaven, it would be uncomfortable. So in order not to be exposed, Gu Cheng gave up those "garbage" equipment and went around the roof to escape.
As night fell, Gu Cheng faced the sandstorm and followed the information given by Obuick toward the caravan's route. Talinas, who was blowing sandstorms at night, was very difficult to walk. If Gu Cheng was not a player and had no player's map system, he would have been lost in the sandstorm at this time.
Finally, Gu Cheng found the oasis that Obuick referred to.
According to Obuick, the caravans in Sort City will not set off from the dunes until dawn, pass through this oasis, and then pass through Talinas and return to Sort City from the Atlan Mountains, and Gu Cheng only needs to wait here before leaving.
As dawn approaches, the sandstorm is gradually getting smaller.
Gu Cheng was in a stealth state and was hiding under a desert plant for a while. Suddenly, the figures that appeared in the sandstorm attracted Gu Cheng's attention. When the figures reached a visible distance, Gu Cheng saw clearly the flag of their team belonging to the Chamber of Commerce of Dark Source City.
"Here you come!"
Gu Cheng quietly retreated to the oasis, came to the only water source in the oasis, and took out the potion given to him by Obuick. Obuick's plan was very simple, to make Gu Cheng pretend to be unconscious in the oasis to attract the attention of the caravan. With his injuries and Reus' identity, it was easy to get the caravan to take him back to Sort City.
After taking the medicine, Gu Cheng immediately received a system prompt-
"System prompt: If you take 'highly poison', your body will be affected by poisoning, and all attributes will drop by 90%... and fall into a coma for 300 minutes."
"Damn! That smelly old man Obek cheated me again!" Before Gu Cheng finished speaking, he collapsed. Fortunately, his identity as a player was there. Although his body fell down and fell into a coma due to the influence of the drugs, his consciousness was still clear.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Gu Cheng felt someone approaching.
"Father! Someone fainted here!" This was a female voice that looked a little crisp. From her voice, she was not very old.
After that female voice, a thick middle-aged male voice sounded: "Isn't it normal for a lost person to appear in the desert? Sari, you have been traveling with the caravan for a year, why can't you change your shocked personality?"
"No! Father, this is a man wearing the uniform of the Dark Source Guard in Sort City...ah, it's Reus! The captain of the patrol team in Dongcheng District, I've seen him before!"
"Oh?" His daughter's words attracted the attention of the middle-aged man. He hurried to the water source and took a look. It was indeed the patrol captain of Dongcheng District.
Although this caravan belongs to Sot City Chamber of Commerce, not everyone is familiar with the Dark Source Guard in the city, members of the captain status have naturally dealt with.
"Father, he was poisoned."
"Can you solve it?"
Sari said confidently: "Of course, I am a Holy Feather Priest now, so it's still easy to detoxify this kind of poison."
The middle-aged man rubbed Sari's hair in a doting way: "Okay, save him quickly."
Sari closed her hands and began to chant spells. A white light flashed across her shoulders, and a white elf appeared. Then, as Sari sang the spell, the elf descended a holy light to cover Gu Cheng.
"System prompt: The 'toxicity' has been eliminated due to the influence of 'holy blessing'."
As a professional actor, Gu Cheng knew that he could not get rid of the poison and woke up immediately, so he naturally had to show his true acting skills...
"Why haven't he woken up yet?" the middle-aged man asked in confusion.
Sari was also very strange: "It's strange... the poison has obviously been relieved... Wait, father, he looks, he has so many injuries on his body, it seems like he has just experienced a battle..."
The injury on Gu Cheng was disguised by Obuick using magic. After all, he and the members of the third team were attacked together. If he was the only one who got it back without any injuries, it would obviously be suspicious. So Obuick used magic to make some disguises, which was also to help Gu Cheng confuse the people in Sot City. But unexpectedly, it became a prop for Gu Cheng to act.
At this time, several members of the caravan ran over: "Captain, the sandstorm is getting bigger and bigger, we must wait for the sandstorm to become smaller before we can continue to move forward."
"Okay, camp on the spot." The middle-aged man decisively agreed to the team members' suggestions.
A team member noticed Gu Cheng on the ground: "Captain, who is this person?"
"Royce, the captain of the third patrol team in Dongcheng District, doesn't know why he is here, and he is seriously injured and poisoned, but the poison has been relieved by Sari."
A team member said, "Oh! I remembered it. A few days ago, I heard in the dunes that Sort City sent a dark source guard to pick us up. I waited for a few days without any movement. I was quite surprised. Could it be them? They were attacked halfway?"
"It's possible." The middle-aged man replied: "No matter what, it will be clear when he wakes up. Let's set up a camp first and send him into a tent to rest."
"Yes, captain."
After a while, the tent was set up and Gu Cheng was carried into the tent to rest. He could not help but waited for two hours before he gradually "awakened" over.
The whistling outside the tent became louder and louder, and Gu Cheng could clearly hear the rustling sound of leaves being blown by the strong wind. Just as he was still looking at the environment in the tent, Sali lifted the tent and walked in.
"Mr. Reus? Oh, you woke up, it's great! I'm Sari, do you remember me?"
Gu Cheng lay on the mat, rolled his eyelids in pain, and moaned: "Water..."
"Oh! Wait, I'll get you water now!" Sali ran out quickly and ran back soon, with a sleeping bag in her hand. She helped Gu Cheng up and fed him some water.
"Are you..." Gu Cheng looked at Sali with some clues of consciousness.
"Ah?" Sali was obviously stunned for a moment, but subconsciously thought that Gu Cheng might have been in a coma for a few days and his consciousness was a little unclear, so he didn't care: "I am Sali. Is Mr. Reus's body not recovering yet? If you still have discomfort, just lie down and rest! Anyway, the sandstorm will last at least one night before it will pass. We don't have to worry about this. By the way, I have used purification techniques to deal with your injuries and the poison has been relieved. You can rest with confidence."
"Thank you."
Sali said, "You're welcome... we're all from Dongcheng District... Hehe, Mr. Royce will take care of our Dongcheng District Chamber of Commerce in the future."
Gu Cheng: "……………………” Haha, I am worthy of being a member of the "Chamber of Commerce"...
"By the way, Mr. Reus, I heard from Zach that Sort City sent a team to pick us up. Are you? But how could you fall into the oasis seriously injured? What about the others?"
Obuick had told Gu Cheng about these news before, so he didn't know anything about it, so he pretended to be recovering from a serious illness and replied slowly: "The Dark Source Guard received the news that Roland City will set up an ambush in Talinas to attack you, so he sent us to pick you up... The third detachment met the people in Roland City on the way to the dune, and everyone else... Alas... I was seriously injured and finally escaped the encirclement and was about to go to the dune to report to you, but in the end I was exhausted and fell on the dune... Fortunately, you discovered me first. Thank you for saving my life. Please speak if you need me in the future."
Originally, Gu Cheng thought Sali would continue to ask some questions about the ambush in Roland City, but Sali held Gu Cheng's hand with a surprise look on her face and said seriously: "Really? Will Mr. Reus take care of us in Dongcheng District in the future? Can some escort fees be reduced?"
Gu Cheng: "………………………” Hey, the nature of a profiteer has been exposed...
"Ahem..." Gu Cheng was a little embarrassed when facing Sali's "passion": "This mission failed, and I might even be removed from the Dark Source Guard. This is a busy person... I may not be able to help you..."
"Ah?" Sali was a little regretful, but then said, "It's okay! If Mr. Reus really can't stay in the Dark Source Guard, you can come to our Chamber of Commerce. Our Chamber of Commerce will lack experts like you to take charge!"
"Ha?" This time, Gu Cheng was completely shocked. This is OK. The people from the Chamber of Commerce were too awesome, right?
