When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide
Chapter 166 Guests from Moren City (page 12)
The refreshing cool breeze blew across the peaceful land of Ningmugefu. The sky was covered with clouds and it was raining lightly.
Two neatly dressed Grek soldiers held torches and guarded in front of a bridge. Behind them, at the beginning and end of the bridge, there were two stone arrow towers nearly 20 meters high.
But the way upstairs seemed to be blocked, so no one was stationed inside the building.
There were many horses on the bridge, and there was dark blood on the sharp wooden piles, as if they had experienced a great battle.
A war ballista with its wheels removed was placed in the center of the bridge. There were three or four Grek soldiers waiting around. Only one servant wearing gray soft armor was controlling the ballista, standing ready to face the opposite side of the bridge. It seems to be preventing someone from rushing across the bridge.
At this time, there was indeed a figure riding a white horse with two horns, slowly approaching the bridge.
This place is called the "Sacrifice Bridge" and is located at the southern end of Nimgefu, connecting the Weeping Peninsula at the southernmost point of the entire junction.
On the map tablet of the Weeping Peninsula, there is this introduction:
"It rains continuously here all year round, like a girl weeping, hence the name."
A few dozen meters away from the bridge, the white horse coming from afar stopped, snorted, and used its gray hooves to dig at the stone-bricked ground.
"Just rush over like this, I believe in you, Torrett."
Li Shanren stared at the Sacrifice Bridge, his legs gently pinching the horse's belly.
As soon as the words fell, Torrett ran like a breeze and quickly approached the Sacrifice Bridge.
The servants in the center of the bridge quickly discovered this man and horse, and immediately controlled the ballista cart to shoot crossbow arrows as thick as spears, flying towards Torrett with unstoppable ferocity.
Thoret twisted his body flexibly, narrowly avoiding the ballista, and rushed towards the Sacrificial Bridge without stopping.
The soldiers guarding the bridge just wanted to step forward to intercept, but were forced back by two shots of pyroxene. Then they could only watch Torrett pass over them, avoid the ballista, and avoid the obstruction of other soldiers on the bridge. Without looking back, he broke through the simple blockade of the Sacrifice Bridge and ran towards the distance.
After walking forward for nearly a hundred steps, you will reach the left side of the avenue.
An aristocratic girl was sitting on a stone. She had a golden ponytail and her eyes were covered by a simple piece of cloth. She seemed to be blind.
Li Shanren dismounted and drove away Toret, and slowly walked towards the girl.
Although he walked as gently as possible, he was still noticed by the blind girl with sensitive ears.
"Is... anyone there?"
The blind girl asked nervously, her green-white fingers slightly grabbing the hem of her skirt.
She had been sitting in this place alone for some time.
The neighborhood was as quiet as a cemetery, and no one paid her any attention.
The guards who were originally responsible for escorting her left her here, then went to fight against the mutineers and never came back.
She was worried that the people who would find this place were renegade servants who had fallen into murderous bloodlust.
"You seem to be in need of help." Li Shanren stood in front of her and said calmly.
This time when he came to the junction, he didn't want to commit suicide directly and go back.
At least something needs to be done first.
Of course, the ultimate goal is to improve one's own strength.
"It's...someone is really here. That's great. You sound like you still have some sense." The blind girl said with a slightly excited tone.
However, she seemed to realize the disrespect in her words, so she covered her mouth and apologized quickly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend, it's just that I have experienced some unimaginable things recently."
Having said this, she paused slightly, calmed down, and continued:
"Please listen to me. My name is Irena. I escaped from Morn City in the south not long ago. I learned from the guards that the servants in the city suddenly launched a rebellion. However, because I was born with a loss of I lost my vision, so I couldn't see what happened with my own eyes. I could only hear inhuman roars coming from all directions, which sounded very scary..."
At the end of the story, Irena's voice trembled slightly, as if she still had the fear of the chaos.
"My father sent guards to escort me to escape, but he stayed in the city himself, saying that he would hold on to the city as the city lord until the last moment. I...I am very worried about my father, so can you please Please do me a favor?"
As Irena said this, she took out a pure white letter from her sleeve.
"From the servants' voices, I could feel that they were very angry and hated us. The guards sent by my father to guard against the chasing servants never came back...
They are very ferocious and will kill all creatures they see. I am very worried about the situation in Morn City, and even more worried about my father, so can you go to Morn City and help me deliver this letter to my father.
He will understand after reading this letter. Even if...even if he is called a coward who abandoned the city, I don't want my father to die in the city..."
Li Shanren listened to Irena's story silently, but did not reach out to pick up the letter. He shook his head gently and said, "Sorry, I can't do this."
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Irena left the stone directly, knelt in front of Li Shanren, lowered her head and sobbed:
"I understand that this matter may be difficult for you. After all, Moren City is very dangerous now, but I really can't find anyone else who can help me. If I can see the road, I will definitely do it myself. Walk back to town..."
"This is not a question of whether it is difficult or not." Li Shanren interrupted her, "I think a mere letter may not be able to make your father change his mind. Why don't you tell him in person?"
"Tell him in person, but I..." Irena raised her head, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and faced the direction of the voice, "If I rely on myself alone, I may not be able to return to Moren City. .”
"I will send you there." Li Shanren said decisively, "I will send you back to your father, if you are willing to believe me."
A moment later, Irena, who was still in a state of surprise and confusion, sat behind Toret, feeling the gentle breeze blowing.
The white letter was still in her hand.
Li Shanren didn't explain too much. He rode Torette and quickly headed south to Moen City along the main road.
Irena's letter delivery incident is a side mission in the game.
In the game, players can only choose to accept or reject the message.
If you choose to accept the letter, when the player travels a long distance to deliver the letter to Irena's father, and then returns to this place, you will find that Irena, who was waiting alone here, has been killed by an unknown enemy.
Only a crude machete stained with blood was left next to the body.
I don't know who the murderer is. I can only speculate based on the murder weapon that it may be a rebellious servant who found this place.
Some players once tried to save Irena, but no matter what method they used, except for some evil means, Irena's end was death.
Can't save anything.
This has also become a source of frustration for some players.
