Chapter 67
Chapter 67: Clearance
Until this time, the warrior who I didn't know his name made a shocking roar, and sprayed a blood arrow from his wound, which was spectacular. However, this did not stop his body from being shot through by the archers at the entrance of the alley. I quickly rushed into the archers with the help of his body's cover. The "Golden Sword" in my hand could easily kill the three archers one by one using the word "picking" technique. The warrior closest to me was still seven meters away.
I have to say that in this battle, my speed played its role, which was all due to the training I did in the narrow "blacksmith shop" to recover as soon as possible. During those days, my legs were in a state of leaping, and even now my leg muscles still felt a slight soreness. This is the sequelae of being able to recover speed within seven days.
Let's turn the topic.
Qimi said it was not long, but it was not short. After rushing out of the alley, I immediately plunged into the crowd on the street. I leaned against the players on the street and easily got rid of the pursuers behind them. Then I took off the cloak in the corner of a street, showing off my inconspicuous "Fire Dragon Equipment". With an ordinary long sword, I was like a swordsman no matter how I looked at it.
In this way, I came to the "Chaoyang" Street where "Longhuxuan" was located. Looking at the group of live ammunition players in front of "Longhuxuan", I thought to myself that the other party was quite fast, but they didn't know that I could enter without passing through the gate? I was so stupid!
Seeing me approaching, the players looked a little nervous. One of the thieves said a few words in the ear of the player who looked like a leader. The player called "Demon Palace" came up and said to me: "Friend, do you want to enter the 'Longhuxuan'?"
"Yes. Why, can't it be? I heard from my friend that there is a 'Dragon Tiger Pill' here before it was sold. Didn't it open today?" I asked back with a very curious look.
"Demon Palace" looked at my profession sign blocked by my clothes, frowned and said, "My friend, what profession are you?" Speaking of this, "Demon Palace" tightened the long sword in his hand, as if he was about to take action as long as there was a trace of inappropriateness. The group of players behind him showed this situation to the fullest, with the sword unsheathed, and the Taoist priest began to condense magic power in his hands.
"Oh, you said it's a profession? Of course it's a swordsman, do you still need to ask?" I put on an expression of "box" and asked in confusion: "Does you still need to look at a profession when buying things now? That's really strange! Get out of the way! I don't have time to make a fuss with you, a boring guy!"
I wanted to bypass the "Demon Palace" and enter the "Longhuxuan", but the other party obviously didn't want to let me go. He stopped me with his empty left hand and said, "Friend, it's better to show your profession, otherwise-"
Otherwise! When the "Demon Palace" stopped me, the distance between me and him was only about one meter. I scattered the cloak on my shoulder with my left hand towards the head of the "Demon Palace", and the long sword in my right hand had quickly stabbed his neck.
The "Demon Palace" was startled by the sudden cloak, but because of the fact that he had prepared, he immediately realized that when he found something wrong, he immediately realized that the long sword in his right hand was pushing towards the cloak, his body had quickly retreated. But I had already been sure of this. While the "Demon Palace" retreated, the long sword in his hand had been thrown at the other party as a javelin. Then the "Golden Sword" came into his hand and quickly stabbed the left chest empty because of the blocking of the long sword flying in.
The "Golden Sword" was only about one inch before being stabbed by the "Demon Palace" and the guy who came back and slashed at my neck was disintegrated. It was really cruel enough to win life with his life, but I couldn't do this. But how could I stop my attack by just that? On the way to "Longhuxuan", I had already simulated this in my mind, so his counterattack was also expected.
The second plan begins.
Looking at the long sword slashing towards my neck, I quickly lowered my body. After pulling out a huge gap on his armor, I picked up the calves that were not covered by armor. With the sharpness of the "Golden Sword", it was easy to leave a considerable wound on it.
The injury to the calf made the body of the "Demon Palace" sway. I seized this opportunity and stabbed my "Golden Spirit Sword" into the unbalanced "Demon Palace" body. The armor on his body could not stop the "Golden Spirit Sword" from advancing at all, and it was suddenly stabbed into the transparent. I pulled out the "Golden Spirit Sword" and wanted to do it again on him, but found that there was no chance. Two cold steel arrows were already in front of me, and two more shining long swords were running towards my head.
I made a quick decision and entered the "Longhu Xuan", leaving behind a clamor.
As soon as they entered the "Longhu Xuan", Xiaolong and Xiaohu came to meet, and of course there were two guys, Xiaobai and Baihu.
Xiaolong told me about what happened in the past few days when I left. The "Demon Dragon Society" not only blocked the alley where the "Blacksmith Shop" in Yezi was located, but also did not let me go, "Longhuxuan". Therefore, no customers came to buy things in the past seven days because they couldn't even enter the store door. Perhaps because of their concern, they did not have much difficulty keeping those players who came to sell equipment and items, but they were particularly "enthusiastic" with the hunters, but in the end no one died.
In seven days, my "Longhuxuan" has been "closed" for seven days, so how many gold coins will be lost! In addition, the reputation of "Longhuxuan" will definitely be greatly weakened, and even if the troublesome business of the "Demon Dragon Society" is solved, it will plummet.
I secretly hated Xiaohu and told Xiaohu to continue to refine medicine. Xiaolong should not forget to give wine to Qu Yezi. After cleaning up a little, I took Baihu with me and drove Xiaobai out of the "Longhu Xuan". I was located in the sky and kept scattering steel arrows. The first wave of "10,000 arrows" took at least seven of the lives of those players. However, because the other party was looking for a place to hide, the casualties decreased, but I still took their lives from time to time.
In just a quarter of an hour, the "police" in the city arrived. After all, killing people in the city will soon attract them. Facing me in the air, the "police" actually bowed to me, and the "constable" who took the lead asked me: "Mr. Moshui, I don't know why you have a great fight with these people?"
It's really strange that this "constable" is so polite! But I used to hear that it was definitely a "thunder method" punishment for those players who dared to kill in the city. But now, not only do I respectfully call me "Mr.", but also speak in such a humble tone, which really made me curious.
I briefly said the past few days and finally asked: "Shouldn't these people be killed? I think even if I get to the 'Inspectorate Department', the reason should be on my side!" Although I said this, I was still a little panicked. After all, according to the previous specific situation, I was "wrong" first. If I only looked at the "Longhuxuan" paragraph, it would be a disadvantage. But from another perspective, "fighting against the crowd" would definitely not be the battle I wanted to provoke, right?
After listening to my narrative, the "constable" paused for a moment. No, he should have been stunned for a while before he resumed: "Mr. Moshui is the guardian of Pangu City. These mobs actually want to make a decision. The city lord just received a report from the villain and decided to encircle the "Demon Dragon Society" mentioned by the teacher. I believe there will be news in a while."
Hearing these words, I fell into a complete stagnation, and that's OK
As if to prove this "constable", a long-lost system announcement sounded in the sky. No, it should be that a master was conveying through internal force: Now check that the thieves gathered in Pangu City, formed the "Demon Dragon Club", bullying the people and dominating the market, and disrupting public order. The City Lord ordered: to start to clear the "Demon Dragon Club" immediately, and the members of the "Demon Dragon Club" cannot be offline for the next eight hours. During this period, players who kill the "Demon Dragon Club" members cannot get corresponding experience, but players who help the government clear the "Demon Dragon Club" members will receive corresponding rewards from the City Lord's Mansion afterwards. Also, please note that the members of the "Demon Dragon Club" have a black gas on their faces. Don't make mistakes when clearing, otherwise they will be punished according to the criminal law.
What's going on? My identity as the "Guardian of Pangu City" that I didn't care much before, actually has such a great effect? Although the facts have proven that, I am still full of doubt. It's impossible. Even though I have made a lot of contributions to Pangu City and brought the economy in the city to a level, is this "clearing down" gangs of tens of thousands of people just because of this "Demon Dragon Society" that offended me, the "Guardian of Pangu City"?
This is absolutely impossible. After all, this involves the interests of tens of thousands of players. Even if the city lord has a good impression of me, it is impossible to joke about such things. Think about the previous announcement, which contains the sentence "Bullying the people and dominating the market and disrupting public security", which means that the real reason for this clearance is because of this. Think about the actions of Kongkong'er telling me about the "Demon Dragon Society" before. I believe that the government had noticed the harm of this underground gang at that time, and had already planned to eliminate it.
The grudge between me and the "Demon Dragon Society" is just an excuse for them. The guardian appointed by the lord of Pangu City was actually treated like this by an underground gang. It is natural that the lord gets angry. This excuse is really wonderful for the government. Although I have escaped the current predicament, a bigger problem is about to arise.
First, the members of the "Demon Dragon Society" who were wiped out this time will definitely take revenge on me in the future. Although they dare not do anything in the open, they are definitely dangerous in the dark, not to mention that I originally had an unknown hatred with them.
Second, the matter of clearing out the "Demon Dragon Society" is not a trivial matter. Even if the tens of thousands of members of the "Demon Dragon Society" are silent after the clearing, this matter will still spread throughout the continent, even the entire game world. At the same time, my "Ink" name will also be spread to all parts of the mainland. To become a celebrity, whether it is good or bad, the future life will definitely be difficult. Maybe I will have to deal with human skin masks all day in the future.
These two problems are the most important, and there are some minor things that are not necessary to worry about now.
After exiting the thinking process, I looked around and saw no one. The whole street was empty. Even the "constable" who was respectful to me before was missing. Maybe he had finished the task and returned. But I could hear the sound of weapons attacking from all directions, the screams before the players died, and the neat and loud footsteps of the city guards in Pangu City. Now the southern area can be said to be in chaos.
Shake your head and throw away the worries in your heart. Anyway, this is the case. Now, kill a few more members of the "Demon Dragon Society". You can not only avenge your revenge in a legitimate way, but also get rewards from the government. Why not do it?
The city guards surrounded the entire southern area, and there was no possibility for the members of the "Demon Dragon Society" to escape, but as long as there was a glimmer of hope, these guys would continue to attack the encirclement. So the most tragic battlefield now is at the South City Gate, where countless city guards, members of the "Demon Dragon Society" and players who helped clear them out.
Those players spontaneously formed a team to eliminate the members of the "Demon Dragon Society", forming a human wall behind the members of the "Demon Dragon Society", and attacking these "Demon Dragon Society" members with the city guards. Obviously, this "Demon Dragon Society" must have done nothing good on weekdays. Many players even cursed and swearing about the abominable "Demon Dragon Society" when attacking. This time, the government's clearance can be said to have both hands and feet agreed, so they did not break up when they killed these guys.
When I heard these words, I felt much more relieved. It turned out that these guys from the "Demon Dragon Society" really offended everyone, so my chances of revenge will be much smaller in the future. Even if there are those, they are just a few "enemys". This is not what I am worried about.
After letting go of one thing, I was in a good mood. The steel arrows in my hand were continuously pierced into the crowd by "shotting ten thousand arrows at once". The members of the "Demon Dragon Society" who were crowded together have now become my best target. Facing the long arrows flying from the sky, these people had no choice, and they didn't even know who was the one who killed them. It can be said that they were extremely depressed.
I kept harvesting life on the ground in the air. In just half an hour, I killed at least several hundred people. Of course, this is due to the fact that they are all crowded together. But later, all the members of these "Demon Dragon Society" were dispersed, which is conducive to attacks on the ground, but it is not good for me. I don't want to take away their prey from the small encirclement of players or city guards. After all, they also need revenge, right?
So now I left the South City Gate to look for the lonely members of the "Demon Dragon Society". Although the battle was concentrated in the South City Gate, there were still many members of the "Demon Dragon Society" hiding everywhere in the entire South District. However, during the clearance period, any member of the "Demon Dragon Society" could not enter the public shop, so these guys could only hide in some remote corners for a while. My current target is these cunning guys.
I, who is extremely familiar with Pangu City, easily found many such members of the "Demon Dragon Society". I called him over without hesitation without hesitation. Six or seven of them could be solved in one meeting, and the harvest was remarkable. For more than an hour, I went around the secret corners of the southern area and hunted countless members of the "Demon Dragon Society". I can't remember exactly how many, but there are about 500.
It was not until Xiaobai shouted and reminded me that I was hungry that I stopped this hunting behavior and returned to the "Lin Family Restaurant" next to "Longhuxuan". I had a nice dinner with Xiaolong, Xiaohu and Xiaobai.
During the meal, the enthusiastic Master Lin asked me about the situation I have been here these days. In fact, when facing the "constable" before, I had briefly explained the situation these days. Master Lin was also watching, but like all the old people, when encountering such a thing, I still need to tell him in person before I can feel at ease.
Finally, I patted my shoulder and said, "I didn't expect that there is such a danger in the game. You should be more careful in the future! After all, you will lose a lot of experience once." It seems that Master Lin still knows some rules of the game in addition to his job as a chef!
Then, Master Lin told me about the income of the two stores "Lin Family Restaurant" and "Lin Family Inn". The former has a very prosperous business. Now the net profit per month is about 90,000 gold coins. In three months, it is 270,000 gold coins. It is a little more than 20,000 yuan if it is converted into RMB. If it is 50,000 yuan, Master Lin can get more than 10,000 yuan, which is more than three times his original monthly salary. Of course, he is happy all day long.
Moreover, this job is not a physical job, so there is no big problem for an elderly person like him. So Master Lin is very satisfied with his current job. In addition to the necessary sleep time every day, he is just stuck in the game. After all, there is only one chef like him in the "Lin Family Restaurant" at present, and the chef's cooking skills are still much worse than him.
Leaving the "Lin Family Restaurant", I took Xiaobai and Baihu to the "Tianxia Auction House" and wanted to ask about the "clearance".
Zhang San saw me smiling and said that he had planned to hold a grand "jewelry auction" in Pangu City in three days. All kinds of jewelry will be displayed at the auction. Of course, my Night Pearl is a big show of obsessing, and it will definitely be sold at a good price. Although the news is very good, I did not have any expression, and just asked lightly: "What happened to the previous 'cleaning'?"
"Haha, it's not your identity as the "Guardian of Pangu City" that has played a big role. The city lord knows this, of course he will punish those guys strictly!"
"I want to hear the truth!" I pushed back the smile he gave without hesitation. It was not that easy to fool me!
"Hehe, I know so much-" I wanted to continue, but when I stared at me, I withdrew my smile and said a little embarrassedly: "Actually, this 'Demon Dragon Club' is really arbitrary in Pangu City, and the negative impact is great. Some new players have been blackmailed by their blackmail. So Lao Song (the city lord) reported to the headquarters, and the headquarters issued a document asking for severe punishment of these guys. So Lao Song has been investigating this matter during this period. Just so, when you encounter this matter, Lao Song naturally started to 'clean up'."
He stopped here and looked at my face carefully. He found that there was no anger he imagined, so he added: "Of course we also know that it is a bit bad to use you as an excuse, but Lao Song has already said that he will give you corresponding compensation, so you'd better think about what you need most first. As long as it's within our ability, don't be too exaggerated, we will try our best to satisfy you."
When I heard this, I felt aroused my heart. Although I had the idea of provoking a crime, I had never thought about getting any compensation. After all, although the government's practice has brought me a great threat to a certain extent, it also gave players a signal that I have the government as a backer and will gain something in the future, both in business and in other aspects.
It is really hard to explain this kind of joy and sorrow that is half-mixed. In fact, for the government, there is nothing wrong with me to carry out this clearance with my name, and it can even be said to be very legitimate.
But it is unreasonable in terms of human relationships. After all, I have made great contributions to Pangu City, which was not very prosperous in the past. The city lord Song Qiming and Zhang San, the boss of the "Tianxia Auction House", have even made a step forward in their work performance because of my help. They can be said to be very grateful to me, and therefore gave me the greatest convenience within their own authority.
Now that I said I wanted to compensate me, I was inexplicably happy and was thinking about what to ask for. Equipment may be possible, but it is not the most important thing for me; gold coins are the same as equipment, and pure money is probably even more difficult to obtain; as for skills, there are too many restrictions... Thinking of this way, I found that only "reputation" is the most suitable for me and what I need most at the moment.
My reputation is now 29924. Just kill a few more monsters and it will be 30,000, but there is still a gap between the goal of 50,000. As long as the reputation is enough for 50,000, I can upgrade "Lin Huxuan" and "Lin Family Restaurant" and "Lin Family Inn" under the supervision of Master Lin to medium-sized stores, which will solve the problem that Master Lin has always complained that the store is too small. Unfortunately, a person can only open three stores at most, otherwise if he opens a few more, he will definitely be rich.
After thinking about it, he told Zhang San about his own method. Although Zhang San is not a staff member of the government, he can be said to be a top figure in Pangu City because of the good performance of the "Tianxia Auction House". In addition, his good relationship with Song Qiming in reality made the two cooperate with each other in the game, and Zhang San became a great figure in Pangu City.
Regarding my request, Zhang San thought for a while and said, "This compensation should be within Lao Song's authority. In addition, you have made contributions to helping the government to 'clean up' this time. He killed 521 members of the 'Demon Dragon Society' by himself. I think there should be no 10,000 reputation."
Ten thousand points of reputation? I felt a little regretful when I heard it, but I quickly smiled happily. With this compensation, I was already far ahead of others. The fact that "Longhuxuan" became the first medium-sized store owned by players in the Eastern Continent is irreplaceable.
After a while of greeting Zhang San, I said goodbye, crossed several streets and came to the "Tianxia Jewelry Business". This is a veritable jewelry business, specializing in jewelry business. Before the system was upgraded, that is, when the currency exchange system was not yet activated, customers who came here could count it with one hand because everyone had no money, and the money in their hands was either used to buy equipment or consumed on a large amount of medicines and other consumables. Few people had extra money in their hands, and even if they had it, few people came to buy jewelry.
However, since the upgrade, it can be said that this place has changed a lot. Customers are coming in a constant stream every day. A large number of jewelry that is gorgeous but has no effect has become decorations for female players. The sales can be described as "double pounds a day".
Of course, I came here not to buy jewelry, but to do jewelry processing. This is also a business of "Tianxia Jewelry Business", because some players like to wear decorations they designed, and the jewelry business grasped the people's psychology and set up this business, which brought huge wealth to the jewelry business. It is said that the person who proposed this idea was the boss of "Tianxia Jewelry Business" now.
I walked into the store with two pets. The lady behind the counter saw me and asked kindly: "Sir, what can I do to help you?"
I nodded slightly and said, "I have a few things that I need to help with processing. I wonder if it's OK?"
"Of course. I don't know what you need to process. We have the best engravers and designers in Pangu City. As long as you say the style and patterns you want, we can process them for you."
I took out a piece of crystal that was more than one meter long from the "Qiankun Ring" and said, "I hope to divide this piece of crystal into small pieces the size of a thumb, and then carve the twelve zodiac signs and other monster patterns on each piece; of course, I also need to drill a small hole at one end of the crystal, put on a silver chain, and make a crystal necklace. Is this OK?"
The waitress didn't say anything, just stared at the crystal that was about the same height as her, with a look of intoxication in her eyes. I did not interrupt her indulgence, and quietly waited for her to wake up. In fact, this girl was not the only one who was attracted by the crystal. After seeing the crystal that emitted soft white light, the players who came to buy jewelry were all in a daze. The whole "Tianxia Jewelry Tour" calmed down.
