Chapter 20 Crusade! Defias Lily Club
(The second update...well, please recommend votes in the early morning! Recommend votes are the full motivation of abalone!)
As a master who pre-submits the rest of his life to engineering, the maid's judgment is obviously correct.
When this night that was destined to be uneasy passed, the next morning, the boy who was about to set off from Light Source City to Red Devil Mountain stood at the gate of the city that had turned into ruins and smiled helplessly.
There are two gates of Guangyuan City, one is the outer gate outside the moat bridge, and the other is the inner gate that is the only passage to enter and exit the city and is closely guarded. Between the two gates is the moat and bridge called "Hero Valley".
But what was destroyed in the explosion last night was this inner city gate, which was said to be guarded by "the most elite guards in the kingdom."
In fact, despite such a thing, it can only have a slight impact on the daily life of Light Source City at best. For example, today's players choose to leap from the city wall when leaving the city, fall 60 yards in a free-fall posture and plunge into the deep moat.
Of course, there are also some unlucky guys who fell to death by the moat because they didn't jump far enough, and were then taken to the port of Guangyuancheng Harbour in the West by the river.
"Do you really want to jump down?"
When he stood on the city wall and looked down, looking at the bodies floating on the moat with limbs twisted, Gao He suddenly felt that things could not be considered so simply.
Obviously, the key to the problem is not here.
No matter who does this behavior, it is a provocation to the Light Source City and the human race.
So, this time, the royal family of Guangyuan City finally stopped silent and launched a national expedition order.
The target of the conquest is not the orcs, the mortal enemy of human beings, nor the undead who are entrenched in the northern part of the continent and always threatens the safety of the human kingdom, but... humans of the same race.
The bandit group named the Difiya Lily Association issued an ultimatum to the royal family of Light Source City by blowing up the city gate.
The leader of the organization, Edwig Vankoff, claimed that if the wages owed by the construction workers were not paid within the time limit, she would personally replace her dead husband and destroy the majestic city designed by him and turn it into ruins again.
Immediately afterwards, just today, the Royal Family of Light Source City also issued a wanted order with a high reward for the robber leader Adewi Fankoff and his subordinates.
"Sure enough, no matter when it comes, civil war is the primary productive force of mankind..."
Looking at the rewards listed below the bidding order on the bulletin board, even Gao He couldn't help but feel greedy.
The coveted experience and reputation rewards are ignored for the time being. The large number of gold coins can also be regarded as external things. The key is that if the mission rewards only ordinary excellent equipment, it would be fine, but this time, during the mission, there were spoils that Gao He had to face up to—
Excellent blue weapons and equipment!
Compared with excellent green equipment, excellent blue equipment has more attributes, and weapons often have special attributes that are very helpful for improving their strength. It can be said that a suitable excellent weapon is to some extent enough to arm a fool swordsman like the Seven Swords into a strong man.
It is precisely because of this that Gao He almost immediately gave up the idea of going to Red Devil Mountain, but instead headed to the core area of Light Source City, and the Light Source Fortress was officially released, ready to learn more about the goals targeted by this expedition.
If Gaohe is not wrong, this time, it is probably the first major event since the game officially started, and it will also be an event that has a significant impact on the game progress.
As the daily residence and military location of the Royal Family of Light Source City, players are not allowed to enter at will. Unless they have obtained tasks or obtained the permission of certain specific NPCs, players who want to enter will be blocked.
But today, when Gao He arrived here, he was not blocked by the guards guarding the gate.
"May I ask... Is the task of striking the Difiya Lily Association here to collect it?"
Although he planned to walk in immediately to see how luxurious the interior of this glorious fortress was, Gao He was still calm and planned to have a brief conversation with the soldiers guarding the door.
Generally speaking, when Gao He, a player, talks with soldiers in this light source city, because he has another "high, handsome and rich" identity, most of them will receive polite responses from the soldiers.
But this time, unexpectedly, the guards guards at the gate did not answer his questions seriously as he thought.
"Another recruit who is overestimating his abilities."
Why?
He just received such an evaluation. No matter how Gao He asked, the goalkeeper only looked at him with a slight contempt and compassionate look, but no longer responded to his questions.
"Sure enough... the task this time is definitely not that simple, right?"
"Oh? I just happened to feel that way."
Gao He's muttering to himself was suddenly interrupted by a soft voice from behind.
"It seems that you should be a Paladin - I have to say that you have the courage to choose this legendary not powerful profession, from this point of view, you already have the courage to be a knight."
When Gao He's eyes met the girl who was talking to him, he got a kind smile response from the girl.
"Of course, I don't mean to belittle the profession of Paladin. As a priest, I don't reject the Holy Light."
In fact, even if this beautiful girl with elegant temperament is not to mention, just judging from the clean and white robe and the staff behind her, Gao He could roughly guess the girl's profession.
"That..." Facing the sudden conversation of the beautiful woman, Gao He was not confused, but he still felt that he should first figure out the other party's intentions.
"To be honest, I have some doubts about the military actions taken by Light Source City against the Lily of Difiya. Now it seems that people who think the same as me still exist. This is really gratifying. To some extent, it proves that there are not only idiots and muscular men in this city..."
“…Please allow me to interrupt.”
The girl's tone of speaking sounded like she wanted to be completely integrated with the world, but under her gentle speech, she concealed the strength of dominant voice.
For Gao He, who has always been a "gentleman", it is actually quite troublesome to catch up with such a passionate girl.
"So, before saying this, can you tell me... what's going on with my body?"
In fact, when Gao He discovered that his body was already moving forward involuntarily following the girl's footsteps during the time when the girl was attracted to her attention, it was no longer a wise idea to continue to remain silent.
"Oh? I'm really sorry, I just think that taking this way of talking while walking can save more time."
The beautiful girl gently fiddled with the long hair on the side of her neck and showed a gentle smile.
"Now it seems that it is necessary for us to have a more in-depth and easy-to-understand communication."
It's a really confusing way of communication.
The Paladin, who confirmed that his body had recovered his control while the girl smiled, nodded helplessly at the other party.
"Anyway...my name is Abu, I'm glad to know you."
"Ah, this method of exchanging names can indeed increase each other's trust faster."
The girl's compliment that knew something made Gao He's face flush so slightly.
"So, may I ask you..."
"My name is Hongye."
The priest girl who had well-tied her long hair on her shawl solemnly introduced herself to Gaohe.
"Of course, please call me Sage Hongye if it is convenient."
Since you like someone else's name, wouldn't it be better to just write "Sage Red Leaf" when you name it?
It seems that like the words and deeds of the priest girl who first met, this is probably a girl who is quite troublesome.
