Chapter 21 Rescue Mission, Part 1
Since it was a mission related to rookie mercenaries, how could Chen Fei miss it? He didn't need to think about it at all, and immediately accepted the mission.
"Ding Dong, the player accepts the 'rescue rookie mercenary mission', please go to Night Town to find the mayor to learn about the mission.
The first prompt given by the mission is very simple, with no time limit, and Chen Fei can even reach the destination immediately by spending some gold coins to make a teleportation array. However, Chen Fei, who had experience in his previous life, did not rush to the teleportation array immediately, but instead thought about it.
As mentioned above, the rescue mission is a mission with many links, but there is another feature, that is, the prompts given by this mission are always Far away is very simple, so many places actually need you to think about it yourself to know. Take the first prompt in front of you, first of all, you have to think about two questions: how to go? How many people go?
Yes! The prompt here does not explicitly say that this task is a single-person task! Then Chen Fei needs to decide whether to bring Lin Rong and Sun Qilong. After all, with the help of the two of them, it will definitely make the task much easier. But... In this way, it is also a delay for the two of them.
"This task does not specify that it must be done alone, so I guess it should be possible to do it in a team. However, you may not get a reward. So..." Chen Fei said in the voice channel.
Lin Rong knew what Chen Fei said, and he laughed heartily, "Xiao Fei, what you said, let alone we are good brothers, just for the gold coins you gave us, there is nothing wrong with us being a hard laborer for you."
As soon as this was said, Sun Zhenzi followed up with a sentence, "Rich? How many gold coins did Xiao Fei give you? Xiaofei, I'll come find you as soon as possible, you have to leave some for me!"
"It's useless to give it to you." Sun Zhenzi's words unexpectedly aroused Sun Qilong's disdain...
Each person had ten silver coins, and the three of them came to Night Town, which is located southeast of Storm City. At this time, the game time should be daytime, but in Night Town, the sky is gray, as if it will rain at any time. This is a very important town in the game, because of its geographical location - close to Karazhan.
Let's not talk about Karazhan for now. After leaving the teleportation array, Chen Fei opened the map and quickly found the location of the mayor. After a while, he came to the mayor.
"Thanks to the Alliance, someone finally came to help us." Clicking on the mayor, the first sentence this guy said seemed very excited, "Warrior, I'm very happy to see you here. We are in urgent need of your help at this time. ”
At this point, the mayor briefly recounted what happened: It turned out that a bandit gang suddenly appeared in Night Town recently and often harassed the town. A few days ago, a group of young people who were supposed to go to Storm City for training were kidnapped by this bandit gang! Afterwards, the bandits sent a letter saying that as long as 10,000 gold coins were prepared, these people could be redeemed. However, where can a town like Night Town get 10,000 gold coins?
As the mayor finished his story, the system prompt appeared again: Ding Dong, help the mayor eliminate the bandit gang, and Rescue the new mercenary.
It was still a very simple prompt. And, from here on, there seemed to be no other mission links. This made Chen Fei a little confused. However, when he saw the prompt and there was an exclamation mark above the mayor's head, he knew that it was not the case.
Talking to the mayor again, there were three more options under the dialog box: Find the captain of the town guard; The trouble with the grocer; The sad lady of the manor.
Sure enough, there are many links in the rescue mission! This directly divided into three branches! Although these three branches are not If you have not completed it, you can directly find the bandit gang, but in that case, Chen Fei thinks the difficulty of the task will definitely increase greatly! In addition, there may be a lot of extra rewards!
Looking for the captain of the guard: The captain of the town's guard has fought with the bandits many times and has been looking for their lair. Maybe he can help you.
The troubles of the grocer: A batch of goods of the grocer were looted by the bandits. You can find him to understand the situation and maybe help him get the goods back.
The sad manor lady: The son of the lady of the Temanto Manor is missing, and it seems that She was captured by the bandits, which made her very sad. If you are willing, you can help her.
All three branches give very simple hints. The grocery merchant is in the town, which is easy to find. The captain of the guard is outside the town, which is more random. Manor Lady, the location of Temanto Manor is on the main road from Night Town to Storm City.
"Lin Rong, Captain of the guard, please go outside the town to look for it; Qilong, just go to the grocery merchant, and if there is no follow-up link, you can help Lin Rong find the captain of the guard; I will go to Temanto Manor to see." In the case of team formation, teammates can also trigger the follow-up by finding the task NPC. If Chen Fei did not bring two people here, I am afraid that it would be too late in the end!
The three people separated directly, and Chen Fei went straight out of the town. Night Town belongs to the range of Dusk Forest. The monsters here are level 20-30. With Chen Fei's current strength, it is barely possible to deal with one or two. If there are more than two, you can only go around.
However, Chen Fei was puzzled by the fact that a task to rescue a novice mercenary was chosen on such a high-level map. After all, for current players, it was a problem whether they could reach Night Town from the main city of Stormwind - 30 silver coins, which was not a small amount in the early stage.
Carefully avoiding the monsters on the road, he finally arrived at the Temanto Manor. Chen Fei didn't have much impression of this manor in his previous life, but there were often life players in the forum who came here to contact for collection, just because this was a manor run by NPCs.
There were several guards guarding the entrance of the manor. Walking a little inside, there was an old gardener with an exclamation mark on his head. From him, you could receive the task of collecting crops in the manor, and the reward was the corresponding ingredients. Going further inside, it was the manor's villa, three stories high. There were also guards patrolling in groups of three or two. At the door, a butler with a golden question mark on his head stood there - it seemed that Chen Fei could not directly see the lady of the manor.
"Warrior, thank you for coming to help our wife, but I'm very sorry. Madam thought that the young master was missing and has been in a very low mood, so I will explain to you in detail what happened next." Then, the housekeeper led Chen Fei into the villa.
The incident happened five days ago. That morning, the housekeeper saw the young master, but in the afternoon, he didn't see him. At first, he thought that the young master had gone to the manor to play again, so he asked the guards to disperse and look for him. However, he didn't find him until the evening, but found the young master's pin near the edge of the manor. So far, the young master has disappeared.
According to what the housekeeper said, the young master is indeed likely to have been kidnapped by robbers. So what we need now is to find the robber gang as soon as possible.
On the way here, Sun Qilong had already left the grocer, and the task prompt was also very simple: help the grocer find the goods. However, there was a prompt at the end of the task bar that made Chen Fei a little concerned. The goods were robbed on the way to Treasure Bay-Treasure Bay, located in the southwest of Night Town.
The Temanto Manor is in the northwest of Night Town, and the grocer's goods were robbed in the southwest. The distance between the two locations made Chen Fei feel that the span was too large: in the game, wild monsters have their own territories, and specific NPCs also have their own activity ranges.
However, these are only Chen Fei's unilateral doubts at present, and the task itself may be set in this way.
Without delay, Chen Fei immediately rushed back to Night Town. Only halfway through the journey, the system prompt sounded.
"Ding Dong, the player found the captain of the guard and got the support of the captain of the guard."
Hurry up and open the task bar: The captain of the guard who has fought with the bandits many times is very happy to see your arrival, but for the safety of the village, the captain of the guard cannot help you personally, and can only let his two guards help you. Tip, the bandit gang often appears from the southwest, and the captain of the guard guesses that their base is likely to be there.
Seeing this updated information, Chen Fei quickly asked Lin Rong's location and rushed over quickly. Soon, the three of them met, and Chen Fei also saw the attributes of the two guards.
Guard Lancer: A trusted member of the captain of the Night Town Guard, an elite warrior. HP 950, MAG 200, ATT 23-30, HA 4, PARRY: Passive, 20% resistance to normal damage; DEFENSE BOOST: Consumes 50 mana, instantly increases 5 points of armor, lasts 30 seconds, cools down 45 seconds; EMERGENCY HEALING: Consumes 50 mana, slowly restores HP, restores 200 points in 4 seconds, cools down 10 seconds.
The attributes of the guards are obviously defensive units, and it just so happens that there is no suitable meat shield in Chen Fei's team. With these two guards, this gap is immediately filled.
However, where can I find bandits to compare prices faster? Opening the map, there are only four places in the southwest of Night Town: Garden Cemetery, No Man's Orchard, Sunny Forest, and Dilapidated Farm.
The monster levels in these four places are not high, around level 20, but the range included is a bit large. And the countdown is still 2 hours and 20 minutes, which is still sufficient for the time being.
Not daring to delay, Chen Fei planned to go directly to the nearest Sunny Forest for reconnaissance, then go to the dilapidated farm, then the unmanned orchard, and finally the garden cemetery. In this way, it was just a circle, avoiding wasting too much time on the road.
Finally, I got some ideas. . After that, I started to read the Warcraft Chronicles again and took out some plots to use. This way it is easier to dig holes to play.
