Chapter 312 311 Ah, It Feels so Painful when the Boomerang Flies Out and Pierces My Body!
Chapter 312 311. Ah, it feels so painful when the flying boomerang pierces my body!
Dorothy said that she needed negotiation assistants, but she only needed five people. This was clearly asking the young players to quickly elect representatives to participate in the grand event, and the three dump trucks who initiated this "debt collection operation" were naturally among them.
In addition to the current leader of the "Torrent Knights", the honorary knight Taipar and the leader of the student party, Ge Bao, the five people are complete.
Old players all know the reputation of these five guys, so everyone has no problem with this.
Of course, not everyone of the newcomers is convinced that they are represented, but they have just entered the game and have not even understood the basic gameplay. Now it is really up to them, let alone others, to do such a big thing that directly determines the direction of the plot.
They themselves are not worried
But after all, there are 214 players here, and it is not easy to unanimously agree. Hogg, the chief of the Bloodclaw clan, is escorting the goods towards the abandoned tax station, and there is probably still up to twenty minutes left. There is not enough time for everyone to discuss.
At this time, you can see the difference between organized and unorganized.
The more than eighty members of the Torrent Knights who came here found a place to collect their opinions in a decent manner.
Although they are a player knights, their RP experience in other games has allowed their grassroots commanders to go deep into the captain level after forming a team. In this way, Taipal only needs a short time to unify the team members. Views.
On the other hand, the other individual players were in a mess, and some even had a few grumpy guys quarreling over this matter.
All this is under the attention of veteran players.
They did not have a complicated and in-depth discussion on whether to accept the Blood Claw Clan. Everyone had already reached an agreement. Since the Blood Claw Clan is a prestigious force supported by the players, it must exist!
Therefore, the biggest question now is not whether to accept it or not, but whether the "apology" offered by the Jackals can satisfy the players?
"This Torrent Knights is incredible."
The dump truck sat on a lame chair and whispered to Ge Bao, who was hiding in the shadows and wiping his staff with a handkerchief:
"Their organization is almost catching up with the player army that Brother Bang has trained so hard. I guess Brother Bang may be anxious for a while after these guys officially form an army."
"Won't."
Ge Bao was very open-minded. He waved his hand and said:
"They are members of the RP party. They focus on plot experience, and most of them have switched to administrative careers. I guess that the administrative system of Transia will have to rely on them to support it in the future. Those management-level messes are enough to keep them busy. Just this alone This determines that their combat effectiveness cannot be stronger than Brother Bang's army.
Moreover, lining up and fighting are two different concepts.
Brother Bang is a war madman and has no interest in management and construction.
He is focused on fighting. He is a professional. As the saying goes, don't use your own interests to challenge others' ability to eat.
But when the level of the administrative profession was raised in the future, and one person could lead four guards, the Riptide Knights could organize 500 people with NPC guards alone, and could even strategically influence the direction of a small-scale battle. This was no longer the case. Something that a powerful combat professional simply cannot do.
However, Brother Mudhead, Meow Shark, who has the highest perception in our beast group, just told me that there are three guys in this batch of newcomers who gave him a bad impression."
Ge Bao looked around and lowered his voice and said:
"You know that Meow Shark is a hunter. After passing the Black Iron Trial, the vampire senses have been specialized into the talent of 'Killing Sense'. He told me that the 'Three Moyu Brothers' have something that ordinary people don't have." A sense of chilling.
They are dangerous.
Even more dangerous than Cat Brother.
Brother Cat is just a samurai swordsman. To use a metaphor, Brother Cat is a sheathed sword, but these three guys are unsheathed swords. Do you think the three of them are like this in reality?
"Shh!"
Hearing Ge Bao talk about this dump truck, his heart suddenly suddenly stopped, and he quickly blocked his mouth. The well-informed middle-aged man looked around, waved his hands and said:
"Don't talk about it, just play your game. No matter what their background is, don't have any more contact with them."
"Yes, just play your game."
Brother Shovel, who was always sober next to him, glanced covertly in the direction of the six people from the prodigal son in the border town, and reminded him in a low voice:
"It's strange that the special characteristics of this game have not been noticed by the higher-ups. But no matter what status a person is, being able to enter the game means that Alpha Company has already found a way. Maybe they are officially sent here." Representatives are here to monitor whether anything that violates the law will happen in the game.
This is actually a good thing, you know?
Freedom without supervision will definitely cause some things that no one wants to see.
The moral standards in reality are all mixed, not to mention that this game now amplifies everyone's good and evil tendencies. If you really want to degenerate, you can create some Chosen of Khorne or followers of Slaanesh on the spot in a matter of minutes.
With the constraints of the rules and regulations, when everyone knows where the bottom line is, many rules will naturally become established. "
"Yeah, that makes sense."
Pigeon Bao nodded repeatedly.
He knew that he was a student and had little knowledge of social affairs, so he was very convinced of the judgment of these well-informed big brothers in this regard.
"What are you guys talking about?"
Mo Ni Qiong, riding a manticore, came over leisurely, holding a small bag in his hand and said to the dump truck:
"The results of the lottery have been counted. Do you want to see it now?"
"What?"
The semi-mounted full-risk player, who was protected by his four female guards, complained:
"There is a voting option in the player interface, and the NPC will count it. Why do we still need to draw lots?"
"Hey, isn't this a sense of ceremony?"
Mo Ni Qiong smiled and said:
"Such a big thing must give everyone a chance to participate and show their performance. You guys write your own decisions quickly, and then I will hand this thing over to the NPC."
After a commotion, 214 little players finally reached a consensus before Hogg arrived at the abandoned tax office. Dorothy piled up the slips of paper with the decisions and pretended to look at them.
189 little players agreed to accept the Blood Claw Clan and negotiate with them, and the remaining 25 people wanted to see the smugglers' woodland burn.
This decision was also learned by Murphy, who was far away in Scarlet Castle.
The vampire lord who was "fighting daily" with the necessary evil paused, and then marked the IDs of the 25 players who voted against in his core orb with an expressionless face.
These are the guys who need to be "focused on", but this does not mean that these small players will be "hated".
There is absolutely no need!
For Murphy, these small players with "destructive tendencies" are also his treasures.
Their unsettling desires can also be put into the right occasions at the right time. As a manager, he must learn to make good use of various talents as a method to achieve his goals.
"Rafno, give me vision, let me see."
Murphy in the scarlet corridor waved his hand, took the necessary evil into his hand, whispered, and then closed his eyes.
The next moment, as he closed his eyes, his vision seamlessly switched to the bird's-eye view of the blood-eating eagle flying in the sky at this time, and below was the scene happening in the abandoned tax office in the smuggler's forest.
Under the escort of a dozen hyena-riding gnoll barbarians, the chieftain of the Blood Claw Clan, Hogg, also rode on an extremely majestic clan-style armed wolf into the ruins that the players were "watching with eager eyes".
This showy guy also put a flag on the armed wolf saddle that he "inherited" from Ken Porter. The flag was the emblem he designed for the Blood Claw Clan.
But to be honest, it didn't feel good to be stared at by more than 200 warriors who were ready to fight. The Blood Claw barbarians were very vigilant, and some even had their manes on their necks blown up.
However, Hogg was very calm.
After all, he had seen the world in the Fight Club, and he knew how to deal with these "strange mountain people".
After exchanging glances with Ms. Dorothy, who was floating in the shadows and watching the fun, Hogg jumped off his coyote, opened his arms, and shouted to the five player representatives in front of him in a strange gnoll voice:
"Ah, my brave human friends! Since that dangerous night of separation, I have been worried about your safety. Now we can finally meet again. Here is the reward I promised!"
It shouted a few times to a gnoll trainer behind it, and a few seconds later, more than a dozen coyote mounts with rough saddles were brought into the ruins.
These riding coyotes are specially domesticated. They are larger than the fierce bloody hyenas to bring better load-bearing and endurance.
As vehicles, they naturally cannot be too aggressive. They behave very docilely. Therefore, when Hogg handed the reins of these riding coyotes to the players, these fierce-looking coyotes just howled twice and stopped struggling.
Seeing Hogg pay the mission reward straightforwardly, the anger of the administrative professional players also dissipated a lot.
Especially after Hogg drove the jackals to pile up the various spoils they collected from Kenport's big camp that night in the ruins. Such a frank and non-bargaining attitude made the five player representatives more satisfied.
They immediately sent professional accountants "One Punch to Blast the Galaxy" and "Ruthless Horse Fork Worm" to count the property. After a few minutes, the two came to a rough conclusion.
"It gave almost one third, and including what we looted before, less than half of it is in our hands."
Infinite Horse Fork Worm, leaning on a lion spear decorated with the blood eagle emblem, reported to a group of old players in front of him:
"Needless to say, the rest are all "benefits" for the Scarlet Castle Logistics Department, but at the moment, these can be exchanged for several thousand gold coins according to the exchange price given by the administrative department, and each of the brothers will get about 100 gold coins.
To be honest, this income has exceeded everyone's psychological expectations.
Of course, this is for old players, and new players don't get a share."
"Of course they don't, this is what we worked hard to earn, but I think these jackals must have kept a share for themselves."
Gebao whispered:
"Do you want to ask for it again? We fought the wars, who would be happy if they took those things out of thin air?"
"That's unnecessary."
The mud truck shook its head and explained:
"Now that everyone agrees to support the Bloodclaw clan, those trophies should be regarded as necessary investments to arm these friendly gnolls. They can't really let them hunt with their claws. And since it is a prestige force, there must be quartermasters, and they have nothing on hand. , how to send tasks and rewards?
The equipment and property in this game can’t just be brushed out, right?
You see, the monsters near Scarlet Castle have been almost eliminated at the moment, but novices always need a leveling area. I estimate that the Blood Claw Clan and Smuggler's Grove will become places for new players to practice in the future.
Maybe this new camp was launched just for this purpose. "
"Yeah, that's true."
Ge Bao nodded, and the honorary knight Tepal next to him also thought there was nothing wrong with this statement.
Hogg had been watching them.
After realizing that these mountain warriors were satisfied with what they took out, the cunning Jackal Chief immediately stepped forward and said:
"Warriors, we have settled the matter regarding the spoils of war, so why not talk about cooperation next?"
"Um?"
The dump truck looked at Hogg in surprise, who was only as tall as his shoulders, and he said suspiciously:
"Why do you still want to cooperate with us? Ken Potter's legion has been defeated. You are the only large gnoll clan in Transia. Lord Murphy has let you go. Logically speaking, there is no threat to your new life. Bar?"
"Yes, and it's very troublesome!"
When this matter was mentioned, Hogg suddenly frowned.
He shouted a few times to his "attendant" Nash. The cunning jackal hunter, who was as short as Hogg, immediately walked up to these alien warriors with a big bag on his back, and put the contents in the bag according to his chief's instructions. The thing fell to the ground.
Immediately, a putrid smell came to the face, and the delicate new players immediately pinched their noses and screamed and dispersed amid the shouts of "Fuck", but the old players didn't care. When they were fighting the ghouls in the sewers, I have long since thrown my sense of smell into the nine hells.
At the moment, this cannot shake their steel noses at all, but the "samples" brought by the jackals immediately attracted their attention.
"Is this a skeleton?"
Niu Niu looked at the scattered pile of gray bones at his feet.
He squatted down in confusion and used his armored fingers to pick at these strange bones. As a vampire, although his senses were weakened in the sun, it was not difficult to find that there were still some unexplored bones left in these cracked bones. Dissipated cold spiritual energy.
"Yes! They are evil spirits! The kobold geomagicist Jinya in the clan told me that these evil spirits come from the depths of the Smuggler's Wood and near the Filthy Swamp. They are an army of skeletons! Very ferocious, very powerful, and the number a lot of."
Hogg explained to the veteran players in the weird voice of a jackal:
"I brought my people here to settle. We planned to lick our wounds and contribute to Lord Murphy's rule. However, we were attacked by these bones on the first night we camped.
They have spread throughout the woodland, causing my people a lot of headaches.
They are very aggressive.
I have lost several powerful barbarians in the past few days. To tell you the truth, warriors, if this continues, my clan will soon be unable to withstand it. I want to hire you to help us clean out these damn bones!
Reclaim the most fertile areas of the woodland to serve as the Bloodclaw's great den. "
This was obviously a mission, but the veteran players did not accept it immediately.
They were waiting for Niu Niu's summary after inspecting these skeletons, and what made Niu Niu feel familiar was that he saw the heavily rusted Plantagenet Kingdom Cavalry badge in these skeletons.
This thing immediately brought Niu Niu's mind back to the "distant" memories, that was the night when their first batch of warriors ambushed the Gorse convoy in the Smuggler's Wood.
He remembered very clearly that in that night of swords and swords, the three Plantagenet cavalrymen he stabbed to death with his own hands had such badges on them!
Considering that he was now in Smuggler's Grove and that Hogg's gnoll clan was being attacked by the skeleton army, a rather horrifying suspicion came to mind.
"Damn! Isn't this our fault?"
Niu Niu said to others in private chat:
"Remember the transport team that was killed by the eldest lady's midnight hunters in the Smuggler's Wood Blockade? Now I very much suspect that those corpses that were not restrained turned into these skeleton legions that were causing chaos in the woodland!
Just like when we dug a hole in Morland Village and buried the corpses of the villagers, and ended up with a ghoul lair, we didn't expect that there would be a follow-up to the initial introductory plot?
Is this development team too detailed? "
"ah?"
Niu Niu's guess made the expressions of all the old players become weird. If Niu Niu's guess was right, then the trouble Hogg is encountering now is really the mine they planted when they let go.
this.
Did the boomerang come back and hit me?
"wrong!"
The sober Brother Shovel immediately shook his head and retorted:
"That transport team only has more than 200 people. According to Hogg, these skeletons are already all over the smuggler's forest. Their number is definitely exaggerated. There is definitely something wrong here!"
"so what?"
Pigeon Bao whispered:
"Will you accept this mission?"
"catch!"
Shovel narrowed his eyes, looked at the lush smuggler's woodland in front of him, and said with determination:
"If you dig deeper into this line, there will definitely be a hidden plot! I said that the development team cannot just arrange a new force to appear. Maybe the Blood Claw clan is the guiding force that opens the hidden plot. But it can't be accepted so casually.
We have to find a way to squeeze more money out of Hogg!
Think of it as a 'family benefit' for the new brothers. "
