Chapter 384 Fishing, Just Fish Hard
[“Captain Ghost?” Taidi looked at you in surprise, obviously having heard of this name. ]
[“I know, so what? As far as I know, each Fool can only be the lord of one city. Captain Ghost is already the lord of the City of Dawn, so naturally he will not come to participate in the fight for the City of Eternal Night.” Taidi quickly calmed down. ]
[“Who told you not to come? The latest news I got is that Captain Ghost also plans to fight for the City of Eternal Night and will directly become an opponent of the Bloody Dawn. Captain Ghost is not only the lord of the first sky city, but also the recognized number one master among the Fools. Compared with the president of the Bloody Dawn, the Tyrant, Captain Ghost obviously has a higher status and reputation among the Fools. We can cooperate with Captain Ghost to fight against the Bloody Dawn, and by the way, we can also seek revenge on the werewolves.” You answered. 】
【"It's true that Captain Ghost is the best of the Fools, but that's in other places, and the Bloody Dawn has been entrenched in the Undercity for many years, and has a strong geographical advantage. In the fight in the Undercity, no Fool can beat them!" Taidi said confidently. 】
【"Their geographical advantage comes from the werewolf tribe. If we unite with Captain Ghost, Captain Ghost will naturally have the geographical advantage. Do you want to question that the support of our tribe is not as good as that of the wild races like the wolf tribe?"】
【Teddy was choked by your question and had nothing to say. After a long while, he managed to say: "But how can you be sure that Captain Ghost will agree to cooperate with you?"】
【"Just this!" You took out a foggy map fragment. The surrounding vampires all looked at your hand, but they were all at a loss. No one knew what it was. 】
【"This is an item I accidentally found on my way back to the Undercity. It is called 'Fragment 5 of the City of Eternal Night'. The content of the map is only visible to the Fools. This thing is a must for the Fools to open the City of Eternal Night, and it is the most important 'Map No. 5'. Any Fool force that gets it will greatly increase the chance of taking over the city lord. Use it as a stepping stone. I believe no force can refuse our cooperation proposal." You explained the source and value of the item in your hand. 】
【Teddy looked at the thing in your hand in surprise. He wanted to explain, but he had no way to deny your statement, so he had to shut up. 】
【Although the other vampires present didn't know much about the Fool forces and the map fragments, seeing Teddy's reaction, they all understood that what you said was true. The Ghost Captain did have the capital to compete with the Bloody Dawn. 】
【The scene was immediately full of discussions. The vampires whispered to each other and weighed the pros and cons of this matter. ]
[From some gossips around you, you can hear that most of the vampires are more inclined to agree with your proposal. After all, from the current intelligence, the ghost captain and the bloody dawn representing the werewolves are hostile, and the enemy of the enemy is a friend, which makes the vampires have a natural good impression of the ghost captain who has never met. ]
[More importantly, the blood clan has just killed the bloody dawn's messenger, and the two sides have almost torn their faces. It is difficult to turn around. Compared with the two sides, it is obvious who to choose. ]
[Of course, some vampires have concerns and do not agree to directly surrender to the ghost captain. After all, this kind of support requires actual manpower and material resources. Bloodshed and sacrifice are inevitable in the process of the fight between the two parties. If they choose to support the ghost captain, but fail to take down the sky city in the end, their sacrifice will be in vain! ]
[This is a gamble about the future of the blood clan, and it must be cautious! ]
[After the seven marquises with the right to speak urgently discussed, three of them chose to wait and see, with a reserved attitude, while the remaining four thought that they could try to contact the other party. 】
【After a while, several upper-class families expressed their opinions, and Grand Duke Brand immediately reached out to suppress the noise at the scene. 】
【"In this case, this matter will be handed over to you, Liston. You can negotiate with this "ghost captain" on behalf of the blood clan. If he can successfully take down the city lord and help us win a new gathering place, these three bottles of ancestral blood will be yours. But remember, the premise is to get the job done." Brand looked at you gently, with some relief on his face: "As for any needs in the process, you can come to me at any time to discuss." 】
【Congratulations, you have triggered the hidden task: Duke Brand's commission. 】
【Task content: Participate in the battle for the City of Eternal Night, and with the help of the blood clan, defeat the Blood Dawn Organization, so that you or your trusted people can get the Lord of the City of Eternal Night and open up a new gathering place for the blood clan. 】
【Task reward: three drops of ancestral blood, and gain the support of the blood clan. 】
This task was fought for by himself, and Mu You naturally chose to accept it.
[You agreed to Brand's commission under the jealous and angry eyes of Bruchtedi. ]
[Brand stood up with a cane and announced the end of the clan meeting. Of course, because the new gathering place has not yet been found, Brand ordered all the families to stay in the Dark City temporarily and wait for the arrangements of the clan. ]
[The clan meeting ended, and the vampires on the scene left and dispersed. You and Mai also stood up and prepared to leave the venue, but found that many vampires from other families rushed towards you. ]
[The Count of Dark Night, who had no news for a thousand years and was believed to be dead by most vampires, suddenly returned today, and he shined at the clan meeting as soon as he appeared. Not only did he get the hope of being promoted to Marquis, but he also became the representative of the clan and the Fool Clan. Once the plan succeeds, the vampires will move collectively to the City of Eternal Night in the future, and the Rhine family will surely become the most popular family in the clan. ]
[This also made the Rhine family, which was originally ignored, instantly become the target of other families' solicitation and communication. ]
[The patriarchs of each family surrounded you, asking you about your well-being. Some middle-aged female vampires seemed to be particularly concerned about your marital status and recommended their single female vampires to you. ]
[Seeing that you were silent, Mai behind you stood up tactfully and answered all the inquiries on your behalf. ]
[After declining the invitations of other families to the gathering, you and Mai left the venue. ]
[Until you left the church and went deep into the fog, Mai looked at you excitedly and said, "Brother, you are so amazing. This is the first time I have seen so many people fawning on us together!" ]
[Mai looked at you with admiration, but did not forget the business. She hurriedly asked you how to contact the Fool next and whether she needed her help? You choose... ]
[You told Mai that you would need her help to go to the Undercity to select some gifts to entertain the Fool. ]
[Mai agreed happily. 】
【You temporarily gave the "Fourth Fragment of the Evernight City Map" to Mai for safekeeping, and told her to be secretive when moving to avoid being discovered and robbed of the fragment. 】
【After Mai left the old city, you switched to the mecha skin and followed her from a distance...】
Mu You of course deliberately took out this map fragment at the clan meeting.
If there is really a traitor in the blood clan, this news should have been notified to the Bloody Dawn by now.
The blood clan has a fragment of the Evernight City map, which is the most important fragment No. 5, and they have to take this fragment to find the ghost captain for cooperation. After the other party knows about it, they will definitely send people to rob it!
And if the other party wants to determine the location of the fragment, they must bring at least one fragment and find it with the arrow guidance...
In short, Mu You is actually fishing.
But in this process, he can't show up in person, because if he shows up with the fragment himself, the people of Bloody Dawn will definitely see his identity as a player and may not take the bait.
So he gave the fragment to Mai Yi.
Map fragments are different from ordinary treasures. Ownership cannot be bound. At the same time, when players kill NPCs, other items will not be dropped. Therefore, if the fragments are placed on the NPC, they will be dropped when they die. In order to prevent the fragments from being stolen, he gave the relatively unimportant fragment No. 4. The map on it has been copied by him, so even if it is lost, it will not have much impact.
Now Mai Yi goes shopping in the city alone, and he is waiting for the mantis to take the bait.
Of course, he is definitely not enough alone. If Bloody Dawn wants to grab the fragments, the man will probably not send one or two people. He also has to call for help.
Mu You contacted Lin Xue and Xiao Ya on the forum.
There is a reason for calling helpers. After all, the Undercity is the city of the elves. Even if it has the labels of "open" and "free", it is impossible for outsiders to come and go at will. Players who want to enter the Undercity must first obtain a pass, otherwise it will be considered smuggling.
If a backpack of players who have never been to the Undercity were to come here to fight, it would be equivalent to invading someone else's territory. Afterwards, they would definitely be subject to severe favorability penalties, or even be permanently blacklisted. This is why it is difficult for other player forces to intervene in the competition for the Evernight City. The threshold of entering the Undercity alone can block most players.
So Mu You did not plan to ask the players for help at the beginning, but asked Xiaoya to help contact the forest elves.
The four major elf tribes are of course interoperable and can travel with each other, and he is an elder in the forest elves, so they will definitely help with ordinary small favors.
Sure enough, when Xiaoya ran to the tribe to talk, Riley didn't waste any words and immediately assigned a 20-man traveler team to her.
In addition, there were the 67 elves that Mu You rescued in the underwater prison last time. When they heard that Mu You needed manpower, they also took the initiative to stand up and express their willingness to help him. After resting in the tribe for a period of time, these elves have basically recovered.
Now, Xiaoya directly teleported a team of 87 people to the Undercity with a backpack, in addition to Lin Xue and Shadow Wolf.
With so many helpers, all of them above level 15, and several epic masters among the Far Travelers, Mu You didn't believe that the people sent by Bloody Dawn could be stronger than them.
In fact, he greatly overestimated the courage of Bloody Dawn.
When Mu You followed Mai Yi to a magic gift shop in Dark City, Mai Yi had already noticed that someone was following her.
The talent of 'super sense' is not a joke. Mu You was far away and kept the inanimate robot form throughout the whole process, so she didn't notice it. But the werewolves and elves who followed her around were discovered by her before they got close.
[You saw Mai Yi suddenly look around vigilantly at multiple corners, and her right hand subconsciously touched the fragments hidden on her body. Obviously, she had realized that someone was coming for the fragments. ]
[Mai suddenly dropped the gift she was choosing, escaped from the second floor window of the gift shop, turned into a bat, and quickly rushed into the darkness deep in the street. 】
【Mai desperately fled in the dark city. The fragment in her arms was entrusted by her brother and the hope of her family. She was willing to sacrifice her life to protect it! 】
【However, no matter how she ran, the sense of crisis behind her always followed her. She didn't understand why these pursuers could always accurately lock her position, so she could only run harder. 】
【When she escaped to a dark alley, Mai suddenly stopped running, because at this time, she felt that the crisis was coming from all directions. 】
【"Woo!" Under Mai's vigilant eyes, a wolf howl sounded, and then twelve humans appeared from the roofs around, transformed into werewolves, and rushed towards her with bared fangs and claws. 】
"Only twelve..."
Mu You was speechless for a moment. It seemed that the manpower prepared was a bit too much. Only twelve werewolves sent out more than ninety people to ambush. It was really a waste of talent.
Shaking his head, Mu You held the pocket watch, kept looking back, and checked the information of all the werewolves.
As a result, among the twelve werewolves, only two were players, one was the 'Leng Ye' who appeared at the clan meeting just now, and the other was a female werewolf, ID Angelia, the skin was called 'Moon Wolf Beauty', which was also an advanced version of the Moon Wolf skin, and the others were ordinary Moon Wolf natives.
Of course, it can't be said that the other party underestimated him because at least the twelve werewolves on the scene were all level 20, which was enough to deal with a vampire of the same level 20.
It's a pity that they didn't expect that there would be so many yellow birds waiting for them.
After confirming all the werewolf information, Mu You directly pressed the pocket watch and then chose "rescue", aiming directly at "Leng Ye".
The map fragments are 100% in the hands of two players. As for who holds it, it doesn't matter. Just kill them one by one.
[You chose to rescue. ]
[Just as a group of werewolves rushed towards Mai Yi, you suddenly jumped up from behind and restored the original appearance of the mecha. On the two mechanical arms, spiral gun barrels emerged, and dense energy bombs were fired like beans, accurately flying to the twelve werewolves in front. ]
[At the same time, a large number of forest elves appeared out of thin air and appeared on the roofs around them, surrounding the werewolves, and dense arrows were shot at the werewolves. 】
【The werewolves were obviously frightened by the scene in front of them. Facing the dense enemy siege, they all fell into panic. 】
【"No, it's a trap, retreat!" You heard a werewolf shout this order, the voice came from 'Leng Ye'. 】
【All the werewolves immediately gave up attacking Mai Yi and hurriedly fled in all directions, trying to break through the elves' encirclement. 】
【The forest elves who are good at night fighting are not afraid of the close-range raid of the werewolves. They took out their short knives and fought the werewolves in close combat, entangled the werewolves in place. 】
【You activated the strong magnetic attractor, and Leng Ye, who had just jumped into the air, was immediately attracted by the strong magnetic force and flew towards you uncontrollably. In mid-air, the person was frozen into an ice ball by the freezing device you activated. 】
【Dense flames poured out from your gun barrel, all blooming on Leng Ye...】
Mu You ignored the others and just output to Leng Ye, and Yinglang also came to help him.
The other player was also entangled by Lin Xue and Xiao Ya at this time, but Mu You had already told them not to rush to kill the other party, and wait until he finished killing them, because it was not certain who had the map, and it had to be rolled out by the pocket watch.
When the game character is in combat, it is impossible to click to extract items, and Mu You is not worried that the other party will temporarily transfer the fragments.
His current divine power has increased to two points, the output of the shotgun has doubled, and there is also a shadow wolf with super attack power to assist. A mere level 20 player has no power to resist at all. In just a few seconds, he was pressed to death by him.
[You killed Leng Ye, experience +20, life +1, and get 'Moon Wolf Skin Fragment'*1. ]
[Because you attacked other fools for no reason and caused their death, you got a layer of red name, which will be eliminated after 24 hours. ]
[You found 'Agility Belt'*1 at the place where Leng Ye died. ]
"Retrace."
This rolling fragment is also a physical job, and the number of retraces depends on how many sundries the other party brought.
Next, Mu You began to go back and check the items dropped after killing.
Fortunately, Leng Ye didn't bring too many sundries. After going back dozens of times, the items dropped began to repeat. After going back more than 200 times, the items dropped began to repeat infinitely, and no new ones were dropped. Among the more than 30 items dropped before, there was no trace of any fragments.
At this point, it can be basically determined that the fragments are not on the opponent, unless his luck is ridiculously bad.
Mu You let the opponent go. After killing Leng Ye again, he did not go back, but hurriedly collected the dropped items and rushed to another werewolf player.
Another wolf beauty fought against Lin Xue and Xiaoya alone. It was already very difficult to dodge. At this moment, Mu You and Shadow Wolf joined the battlefield, which made her despair.
Knowing that there was no hope of escape, she hurriedly quit the game in reality and chose to go offline, betting that the fragments would not drop.
She went offline, but her character would stay in place for a while. Under the siege of four people, she died faster than Leng Ye.
[You killed Angelica, experience +20, life +1, and obtained 1 ‘Moon Wolf Skin Fragment’. ]
[Because you attacked other Fools for no reason and caused their death, you got a red name, which will be removed after 48 hours. ]
[You found ‘Eternal Night City Map Fragment, Part 3’ at the location where Angelica died. ]
This was the result of Mu You rolling 12 times. Fortunately, the opponent didn’t have much debris on him, so he rolled it out without much effort.
After killing two players, the most important thing was in hand, and Mu You did not let go of the other werewolves. The three of them immediately ran to help the other elves fight, and collected heads and skin fragments.
The other werewolves were not as lucky as the two players. Many of them did not even bind the teleportation mark. After death and resurrection, they were still trapped in the encirclement, and immediately became the target of repeated brushing by Mu You and his team.
Mu You was not polite. Anyway, these werewolves were from the enemy camp. He brushed them with Lin Xue and Xiao Ya. In the end, they brushed a set of "Moon Wolf" skins respectively, and cooperated with other elves to brush all the remaining eight werewolves down to level ten, and then stopped.
The reason why these werewolves were let go was not because they had a change of heart and couldn't bear it, but because: the official forces of the Undercity came forward.
[Your fierce fight with the werewolves can be heard clearly from a few miles away, and soon attracted the attention of the dark elves. ]
[Fighting without reason in the Undercity is an act that violates the laws of the Undercity. 】
【A group of dark elves patrolling arrived late, approached and saw the situation clearly, and hurriedly stopped your "whipping corpse" behavior and questioned why you gathered here to fight. 】
