Chapter 121 - Chapter 125(1/4)
"I'm so embarrassed to say it!" I threw the bead chains in my hand into Yaolan's hand, and said in a very angry look: "I just rushed over from the city point and killed two newly-made servants. I saw that you couldn't find anything after searching for a long time. I originally wanted to help. But I climbed onto the rockery, but I didn't know who suddenly hit me and hit me into the ditch. Look, I'm now covered in mud, bah! I'm so disgusting!"
While cursing, I pretended to surface and breathe, and my hands kept slapping the mud on my body, as if I was really a person with a cleanliness.
Yaolan and others looked at me, and I looked at you, and they were all impressed by my superb performance. But just now everyone was busy looking for something, maybe someone kicked someone or hit someone, and occasionally one or two people were accidentally pushed into the water, which was not impossible.
"If anyone asks you to come, you won't say hello. Not to mention hitting you into the water, you may even mistakenly kill you as a monster." Fei'er stomped her feet, splashing a cloud of turbid mud, and she felt disgusting when she saw it. She swam upwards, jumped out of the water, and washed the shoes on her feet with the clean water above.
"I accidentally discovered this thing when I fell down just now. Are you looking for it?" Looking at Yaolan who was drilling out of the water, I deliberately crossed the topic and asked casually.
"Yeah." Yaolan nodded slightly and said, "The mission here has come to an end. Tomorrow, there should be a follow-up."
Palace! I can finally go in! As long as I enter the palace, I don’t believe it. With my ability, I can’t find a jade pillow. Of course, if I can get some top-quality equipment or materials, it would be even more perfect.
………………………………………
In fact, it was not as difficult as I thought to enter the palace. On the contrary, when Yaolan rushed to the gate of the Imperial Guards, someone immediately took us in. I wanted to mock the Imperial Guards who didn't let me in the door a few days ago, but when I thought that they were just a data stream without thinking, this kind of mind faded.
Driven by curiosity, I inquired about the origin of the token from Yaolan. It turned out that the task they had been doing in the past few months was to get this token. The tasks of the Nine Prince's Mansion actually had no connection with those in front of them. But if you want to take on this task now, you must have such a token and gain the trust of several NPCs in the palace, of course, including the one in front of us.
Is this the emperor? Why do you look like an eleven or twelve-year-old child?
I looked at the NPC sitting on the dragon couch. I could not connect him with the old emperor I imagined.
But then again, among the emperors of all generations in China, there are many who ascend the throne at a young age. Generally speaking, there is no real power and is used by him as a puppet.
Obviously, this little emperor was not doing well, no wonder he had to secretly send us a task and get us around the bush.
As for why he was so miserable, he probably had a lot of connection with the Ninth Prince we were going to deal with. Otherwise, why would this little emperor send a mission to let us go to the palace to scare people and steal things?
Yaolan and the little emperor were talking about the next task we were going to do. I listened with my ears, and my eyes began to sweep around irregularly.
The palace is the palace. Even if it is just a down-and-out little emperor, the decoration in this palace is still very luxurious. Night pearls the size of pigeon eggs, scented fragrant cauldron made of pure gold, and the Nine Dragon Cup carved from high-quality blood jade... The most important thing is the dragon and phoenix jade pillow placed on the side of the dragon couch!
If there weren't a few imperial guards standing next to me who could not see the level, I would be afraid that my wolf claws would have reached towards the pillow at this time.
It doesn't matter. If you can't get it now, it doesn't mean you can't get it in the future. Anyway, the terrain is familiar now. After the task is completed, we will find some excuses to stay in the palace, and then find an opportunity to touch this room and give him a gossip. This old emperor... the children have so many houses, so they won't just stay in this room all day long. As long as he leaves, the guards will naturally follow him, and then... hehehe.
"Ye Jian, why are you stunned?" Fei'er reached out and shook his hand in front of my eyes, and said unhappily.
Oh, I just cared about yy, but didn't notice that those npcs had already left.
Where is the jade pillow? I rushed to the edge of the dragon couch and reached out to grab the jade pillow. Of course, the result is imagined. A line of small words is enough to extinguish all my joy in my heart - the system items cannot be picked up.
"So somebody really treats jade as a pillow." I withdrew my hand angrily, and smiled awkwardly at Yaolan, who was confused at my strange behavior, pretending that nothing had happened, and asked loudly: "Have you taken the task? What should we do now?"
"Garden bun." Fei'er snorted, twisted her butt out of the room. Yaolan shrugged her shoulders and smiled, saying, "We are going to Changchun Garden now, and we will get a few sets of palace maids and eunuchs' clothes first."
What? You actually want me to play the eunuch? I don’t do it!
Listening to the task process that Yaolan told me, I used a roar to express my dissatisfaction and protest, but only caused a burst of laughter outside the door.
The fuck girls had long understood what they needed to do next. Only I focused all my attention on the jade pillow at that time, so I didn't object in time. Now it's too late to say anything.
Regarding this task, I also think it is a masterpiece of the spoofs by the designers of the world.
The Ninth Prince, who was scared to death by us, is also the ninth uncle of the little emperor now. Somehow he got into contact with the imperial concubine Yi in the palace. Although the woman who was a few years older than the little emperor was really not liked by her husband at all, when the emperor was cuckolded, it was not a glorious thing.
In addition, the little emperor had just taken power, and almost all the power was in the hands of the noble Nine Emperor. So the young and ignorant young king first recruited people from outside the palace, obtained evidence of the Ninth Prince's adultery, and then found an excuse to ask him to come into the palace. He took it down while he was unprepared and asked for punishment. He also snatched all the power in his hands.
Of course, the little emperor would not admit the whole thing. Then, he would release a false news that the emperor uncle came to the palace to greet him. Because of saving the saint's carriage, he was killed by an unknown assassin, and everything would be calm.
All the plot is like a novel, but we, the parties involved in the task, are not as relaxed as reading novels. First of all, pretending to be a palace maid and sneaking into Changchunyuan is an extremely difficult task.
I don’t know which bad idea came up with. It’s convenient for female players to come. If a man comes to do this task, he will become eunuchs. Especially among this group of people, I am the only one who is a man, so he became the target of ridicule for these beauties of all sizes.
Damn! Isn't it good to pretend to be an imperial guard? He is very handsome in a suit of armor.
Unfortunately, the game designers had long thought of this - Changchunyuan is the emperor's harem, so how could a healthy man be allowed to appear outside the emperor? Besides, a small concubine does not have the power to have such high-level treatment as the imperial guards.
(ps: Isn’t the Ninth Prince a sound man? Why can he come in? Game designer: Of course he has to come in, otherwise, where would the little emperor have the reason to kill him?)
The task was to be done, but I was reluctant to act as a eunuch. After several hours of fierce debate, I finally lie that I had bought a few night star grasses and could use sneaking, so I gave up the request to pretend to be a eunuch.
Originally, the Night Star Grass prepared by Yaolan for me was used at this time, but because I had to pass the heavy obstacles first, and I only had one Night Star Grass left, so I might not have enough time to sneak, so I asked me to change clothes and sneak in with a few sisters who could not sneak. But since I was so rich, I actually bought the sneaking potion out of my own pocket, and those young ladies could not find any other reason.
"Isn't it just pretending to be a eunuch? I don't really want you to be a eunuch. Just for this reason, I actually spent tens of thousands of yuan. I'm such a prodigal son." This is the comment Miss Fei'er made to me afterwards.
If I really have to spend tens of thousands of yuan, just for a mere little thing to change my clothes, I might really endure it. But the problem is that I would obviously sneak up and pretend to be the despicable person of the disabled, and I will definitely become a laughing stock in the future. After weighing the pros and cons, I am more able to accept the title of prodigal son.
After accompanying several young ladies to steal clothes and successfully disguised them as palace maids, we rushed to Changchunyuan. On the way, NPCs who discovered our identities appeared from time to time, of course they were killed by us and then turned into corpses.
Of course, these NPCs that have seen through our identities were arranged on purpose by the system. Otherwise, if they would have arrived at Changchunyuan so safely, it would not be like doing a task.
Everything was arranged, and the unlucky Ninth Prince Qiansui appeared as promised. However, when I saw the level of the Ninth Prince clearly with the Heavenly Eye Technique, I couldn't help but be shocked.
Damn, we were so obscene by that little emperor. Whatever we said was to catch the adulterer for him, it was obvious that we wanted to die.
Can we deal with the level 65 waves?
If the mission fails, then NPC can push the responsibility on us. He will neither offend Nine Thousand Years nor pay us any compensation.
I looked at the ambush place Yaolan and the others. I guess it was too late for me to say anything now. When they saw clearly that there was a question mark wave ss in front of them, they also regretted taking on this task.
At that time, the young emperor made it clear that if he gave up his mission, he would be given the title of a traitor. In addition to deducting 1,000 points of reputation, he would be wanted by the system for three days.
"What should I do?" Tian'er asked Yaolan beside her in a low voice. At this time, she had already realized that the atmosphere was wrong. High-level wave ss can't be handled by them.
"I didn't expect it to be a question mark-level wave ss." Yaolan shook his head and said, "Let's take one step at a time. Didn't the emperor say that he would send guards to secretly support us? I believe we don't need to kill this wave ss, just hold on until the reinforcements arrive."
Tian'er nodded thoughtfully, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Yaolan thought about it and whispered: "Anyway, it's the last step. No matter what, you must complete it, even if there is only one person left in the end..."
………………………………………
No matter what the final outcome is, it seems that Yaolan's women's soldiers are not going to give up. Although I admire their spirit in my heart, some of them still feel that they are a little foolish and cannot tell the importance of the trade-offs of interests.
If you continue to do this task, you will almost die. Although you have increased your reputation by 1,000 after giving up the task, you can still earn it back. The system only wants to do so for three days, and these three days do not mean that people will chase you everywhere you go. For example, if you hide in a three-doubted area like Jueye Island, you will never be as dedicated as NPC and chase you there.
Even if it takes another month to re-work the task, how much will everyone's level increase in this month? Will it be easier to do the task after making full preparations?
Everyone is close to level 50 now. They have dropped one level and don’t know if they can make up for it for a month. What’s more, for these young ladies, the boring leveling method is probably not the game life they like.
Anyway, I made up my mind and never took action until I was absolutely sure. Anyway, these girls can't see where I am. If I see something wrong, I will always scatter. Anyway, I was only found by them halfway, but I didn't say I wanted to sell my life to them. After scaring the housekeeper of the palace for them, my responsibility has been fulfilled. If it weren't for sneaking into the palace to steal the jade pillow, I wouldn't bother with them to go crazy.
If I am wanted, at most I will hide back and concentrate on leveling in the evil island, otherwise I will go to Xiaoyao Valley, and that place will be very good.
The plan will never keep up with the changes. Just as I was hiding far away under a big tree and preparing to see how the women were sacrificing themselves, a golden aura erupted from the Ninth Prince without warning.
The light golden light seemed to have a physical body, and it spread out completely without distinction around the body of that wave of SS, and all the teammates lurking out into their original form. Of course, I also included.
Chapter 122: Fierce Battle with the Prince
Damn, this is the strength of the level 65 wave ss. If I had known this, I wouldn't have watched any good show. I would have stayed far from the beginning. Now I have entered a state of combat, and I can't even run away even if I want to.
Since the matter was revealed, Yaolan and others rushed up directly, and various magic auras lit up one by one. First, several low-level NPCs were put down on the side and tried their best to deal with this advanced wave ss.
Fortunately, the girls brought by Yaolan are still distributed evenly, and they cooperate with each other in close combat and long attacks. What's more, they are interested in delaying time, so they did not completely use the desperate style of playing at the beginning, and they did not want to force the wave ss in a hurry. They just focus on guard, both offense and defense, and slowly consumed the wave ss.
Anyway, I have been dragged into the water, so at this time I have also dutifully acted as a Taoist priest. First, I blessed amulets on the heads of the ladies, so that they could persist for a longer time, who had both the golden bell cover and the amulet.
While adding blood to their sisters, several monks took turns releasing a small amount of binding skills in time, barely reducing the speed of the waves a little so that the heroes ahead had the opportunity to take a few steps back and breathe a little.
Apart from the skill that can be used on a large scale and can break stealth but has little damage, the Ninth Prince does not seem to have any long-range attack skills. Or because the opponent is too weak, this Boss doesn't take our group of jumping clowns seriously, so he can't even use his ultimate moves?
For whatever reason, the battle at the beginning did feel a bit unpleasant.
But this is just the beginning.
Less than ten minutes later, the power of the level 65 wave ss finally appeared. I heard the NPC in a purple robe hum heavily, and the muscles on his body seemed to have grown a little bit. I don’t know which lady was using the powerful bow skill at this time, and shot to the Ninth Prince’s "weakness" - on her chest -
The red letter of 3000 rose from Boss' head, and such a high attack scared everyone present. However, because of this high damage like a lucky dog, the already changed Nine Thousand Years broke out in an instant.
First, his eyes turned golden, followed by his long face, neck, fists...
A golden light cut out from his fingertips like a sharp sword, forming a crescent moon in the air. It easily took the lives of two team members. Seeing the second golden light shot towards me, I opened the beast gathering banner like a conditioned reflex to block this deadly attack. But because of this action, the durability of the Five Fires Qiankun Flame Banner dropped to zero, and the skills and attack attributes they brought were all gone, but my banner skills could still be used. But I dare not use it to block the attack of Boss. An Luohong had done similar things before, but the result was that his equipment was destroyed, leaving only the one that barely recharged.
I reached out and changed the Five Fire Qiankun Flame Banner to a more suitable cloud and mist banner, and released a cloud and mist first, covering my body.
It was the time when the flag was thrown into the backpack and another one was replaced, and several other team members were sent by the waves with golden light and returned to the city at a high ticket price of one level.
Seeing his sisters ending one by one, Yaolan's mouth was about to bite and bleeding. But there was no way, the level had already been cut off, and it was too late to give up now. If he quit the battlefield in shame, how would he face the sisters who had been cut off for this matter?
Instead of deeply blaming himself, he still needs someone to protect himself from being chased. Yaolan is already determined to die, even if he can't hold on until the last moment. If he really can't complete the task, he will do his best.
I originally thought that when I saw something wrong, I immediately used my moves to cover the sky and the sun to make a strong move, but I didn't expect to get a heavy blow from the waves before that. The skill had been sent out, but it didn't get any effect. I had to wait ten minutes for the next use. Before I could come up with another way, the second round of attack from the Ninth Prince hit me again.
Damn! There are so many people, don’t point and hit me.
I quickly swallowed a pill and looked up. I saw that besides Boss and I were the only ones left on the field. In order to protect Tian'er, Fei'er just now, she blocked a fatal blow with her body, and turned into a ball of white light and disappeared into the air.
Tian'er's eyes were filled with tears, showing that she was moved by Fei'er's actions just now. But she had not forgotten her responsibilities, and the curse of recovery still rhythmically sprinkled the soft light on Yaolan who was struggling to support her.
"Sister Lan, this is the last bottle of medicine." Tian'er added the last golden bell cover for Yaolan and said loudly. Because she lacked enough soul, she didn't even have the ability to supplement a golden bell cover for herself. The latter smiled bitterly, and her inventory was already bottomed out.
Although time has not passed too long, when encountering such waves, everyone is drinking medicine as water. When there is not much potion restricted by backpack, it is consumed.
"Even if you have to hold on for another five minutes." Yaolan looked at Tian'er, who had lost the protection of the golden bell cover, and was killed in place in pain.
The ending of this mission is clear at a glance. Without the monks present, only Boss will launch two more attacks, no more than five times at most. Without recovery ability, we can only end up with the same fate as our teammates who died before.
"Ah——" Yaolan's painful expression was obvious at a glance. Faced with such a situation, I couldn't find any words of comfort to say. She could support her gang of women's soldiers until now. Even the excellent team of players in Wanshou Villa may not have a better performance when there are so few people.
From beginning to end, I didn't show off my own treasures. First, I didn't think there would be any usefulness after a few more treasures. Second, since I knew it was a task that would be a failure, why did I expose my strength in front of others?
Ten minutes, why did it take so long? I was waiting for the cooldown of the strong and stable skill to pass, and I had been attacked by heavy forces no less than ten times. If it weren't for the potion given to me by the blowing wind, I could have continuously replenished my blood volume and had a good medicine to instantly replenish a lot of physical strength. I'm afraid I would have been killed back to the city long ago.
Finally, after putting his last hope on me, Yaolan threw out a bottle of blood medicine from afar, and then lost her trace in the golden light like a sword blade.
Damn, what is enough for a bottle of medicine?
I cursed, but still reached out to take the bottle of potion.
There is no way, I don’t have much medicine on my body.
The worries were gone, and almost at the same time I received the potion, I summoned several powerful backings. Although it is impossible to turn the world out by calling them out now, I can at least buy me some time.
To be continued...
