Let's suffer a little longer, fellow Blue Star folks.

Chapter 123 Arriving at the Shore

Story mission?

Popped out?

When did this game have this mechanic?

But there are rewards...

The Mirage Tank quickly accepted the mission, and then immediately looked up at the Alps in the tree.

"Alps, do you have any bomb missions coming out?"

"It played."

Alps nodded.

At this moment, he was also staring at the task panel and lost in thought.

No wonder the leader had allowed them to stay near the ancestral tomb in Fangjia Village. It turned out that there were follow-up tasks.

Moreover, they directly joined forces with Yun Hejun to attack the other side.

However, if what the leader said is true, this Fang Er has Xuan-level combat power, then the reinforcements sent by the Yunhe Army must at least be Xuan-level.

Would he bring an army, or come alone?

If there were an army, did that mean there were still people from Fangjia Village near the ancestral tomb? Or perhaps there were still many demons?

Seeing that Alps seemed to be racking his brains, Mirage Tank turned around and looked at the other three people behind him.

"Did you see this pop-up story mission?"

He had wanted to give them a heads up and was now ready to go.

As a result, Chen Lu and the other two who were fighting there just now picked up the guns placed aside and even tidied up their messy clothes.

Gugu walked to the side of Phantom Tank very naturally, and then gently patted his shoulder, and said in a tone with a little vicissitudes and sighs:

"Phantom, it's time for us to set off."

After saying this, he raised his head slightly and looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, his eyes filled with melancholy and hope.

???

If he hadn't just found out how much fun this B was having, he would have probably thought Gugu was some weathered warrior, now braving the scorching sun and fatigue, preparing to rush to the next battlefield.

"6."

He could even only walk a 6 alone and give a thumbs up.

With this acting sense, it’s a shame that Beijing Film Academy didn’t recruit you.

Alps, who was standing by, also packed up his things and jumped down from the tree.

To be honest, he didn't know how to climb a tree before playing this game.

But after just a few days of playing, he almost became an expert in tree climbing.

"I've contacted Brother Shui and the others. They've also received this mission and are now heading towards the small lake mentioned in the mission description." Alps jumped on the ground and said to the other four people.

"Huh? They received it too?!"

Chen Lu suddenly felt a sense of urgency.

"Then we have to hurry up, lest they snatch the mission away from us!"

So the five of them didn't waste any more time and set off immediately.

"Um...there's no need to be too anxious."

Seeing Chenlu and Gugu gradually change from walking fast to jogging, and about to break into a run, Alps hurriedly explained:

"This quest shouldn't be the only one. Probably any player who arrives before that NPC arrives will receive the quest reward."

"And we have to be careful not to be discovered by Fang Er."

"This is a story mission. If we mess it up..."

Alps didn't finish his words, but Chenlu and Gugu's pace gradually slowed down.

Although the main storyline of the version has not been advanced for a long time, the previous planner's statement that "if the main task is seriously frustrated, this internal test may be closed directly" is still deeply imprinted in the hearts of every player.

Especially the first and second batches of players who have accumulated some results.

They already have sunk costs.

What's more, the gathering place was built by them brick by brick, and they poured in countless efforts.

Therefore, when facing the main task, they are always cautious.

Because Chen Lu and the others are now on the west side of the ancestral tomb of Fangjia Village, they need to take a curved route to go around Fang Er on the big rock to get to the lake on the east side.

But because Yu Shui and his five companions were already in the west from the beginning, they marched quickly and soon saw the small lake.

"Where's that NPC?"

[Love Black Stockings and Beautiful Legs] I was walking in the front, so as soon as I jumped out of the woods, I immediately looked around the lake.

The lake is not large, estimated to be less than 20,000 square meters, and its shape is very regular, so the entire lakeshore can be easily seen.

"It probably hasn't arrived yet."

[Phosphorus Pentoxide] also followed him to the lake, but indeed did not see the NPC.

"Then just wait."

She found a rock by the lake and sat down cross-legged. Then she stretched herself and took a long breath. Then she rested her elbows on her knees and supported her head with the ends of her palms.

She has been busy for a long time and it's time to take a break.

[Mai Men Yong Cun] also followed immediately, and then sat next to her, imitating Oxygen's appearance.

"The scenery here is pretty good." [Mai Men Yong Cun] sighed softly.

After all, she did not follow the previous operation to rescue the refugees at the lake, so this was her first time seeing a lake in this world.

Moreover, on the blue planet, it is difficult for most people to see a lake without traces of human beings.

It’s also a brand new experience.

"Yeah." Oxygen nodded with a smile, "I told you to go out more often."

"Always taking on the same few repetitive tasks is pretty boring, even if the cost-effectiveness is a bit higher."

In fact, in Oxygen's opinion, her state of mind when playing Dawn is completely different from when she plays other games.

Although I also want to upgrade, make money, improve my favorability, and improve the military rank system.

But ultimately, there's a lack of urgency.

Maybe it’s because this world is big enough and real enough.

As a result, when they complete a task, there is always a long 'prelude'.

They need to talk to NPCs who are no different from real people, travel across a vast map, and face wild beasts or monsters that occasionally jump out on the road.

This also makes her more and more fond of looking at the surrounding scenery during her missions.

After all, the meaning of the game is more than what is mentioned above.

If you play just for the rewards, don't you become a puppet of the game?

"Sister Oxygen, was the factory you applied for approved today?"

[Mai Men Yong Cun] nodded slightly, then turned to look at Oxygen's profile and asked curiously.

"I don't know." Oxygen shook her head. "But I think there's a chance. I'll ask Xiao Ai to ask Xiao Xing when the time comes."

Although they have been near the ancestral tomb of Fangjia Village since yesterday afternoon, Oxygen still immediately entrusted [Ko Ai Lifetime Promotion] to hand over the plan.

This was also the reason why she was a little tired. After all, she had to write so many words first, and then ask [Ko Ai's Lifetime Advice] to help copy them down.

And she thought so.

After this activity, all the monsters in the valley have been killed, so it’s time to start some construction.

Furthermore, specialty pharmaceuticals are indeed a blue ocean industry in the current gathering place, and she is also interested...

"Boom!"

Just as Oxygen and Maimen Yongcun were chatting slowly, suddenly, a large rock flew out from the shore not far away and landed directly in front of the two of them.

The ripples on the lake surface were instantly broken, and a column of water shot up into the sky. The splashes blocked the two people's vision and wet their sleeves.

The two of them immediately turned around and saw Chen Lu and Gu Gu with strange smiles on their faces.

Oxygen's fist instantly hardened.

So sometimes the journey is not only about the scenery along the way, but also about teammates who are seeking death.

"Morning Dew!!"

"Run!"

Chapter 124 The Value of the European Emperor

Just as Oxygen and Maimai started racing around the lake after Chenlu and Gugu, Alps and Yu Shui also occupied the stone where Oxygen had just stood and began to exchange information briefly.

Although we have been communicating through communication software before, some things are still more convenient to discuss in person.

"This meeting mission feels like a precursor to the main quest."

Alps also picked up a few small stones and threw them into the lake one by one while talking.

As everyone knows, Fang Er, Fangjia Village, the Qi Stone Mine, and the demons are now tied to the same rope. It is impossible for the gathering place and Yunhe Army to bypass the other three and attack one place alone.

If Fang Er is killed now, then the Fang Family Village’s ancestral tombs will definitely be occupied for the sake of the Qi Stone Mine. If the ancestral tombs are occupied, Fang Family Village will definitely join the war, and the village chief of Fang Family Village is a demon...

"One hair can move the whole body..."

Yu Shui looked at Chen Lu, who had been caught up by Oxygen, and the other four people who were sitting not far away from them eating melons and watching the show, and there was a hint of sigh in his tone.

Although there are only ten of them participating in the mission now, according to the current intelligence, as long as the other party takes action, it will definitely turn into a war between the two camps of the gathering place + Yunhe Army and Fangjia Village + the demons.

The one hundred newbies who just entered the game can play a big battle right away.

This is so cool.

"Hey hey hey! Looks like the NPC is here!"

While watching Oxygen's 'one against two' fight from close range, Maimen Yongcun suddenly saw a figure approaching quickly on the top of the distant woods, stepping on the treetops.

It's a bit like the ancient anime "Naruto" that I watched when I was a child. Those ninjas kept moving through the trees like this, but the figure in the distance was obviously more calm.

It was as if the man was not running but strolling over the top of the woods.

grace!

[Mai Men Yong Cun] immediately turned around and shouted to the three people.

"Stop fighting, stop fighting."

Yu Shui and Alps also stood up at the same time and looked at the rapidly approaching figure.

Soon, the man reached the end of the woods, then jumped down from the treetops and stood at the edge of the lake.

Li Mu looked at the six people rushing over from a distance, then looked at the four people in front of him, and asked curiously:

"Are you the ones from that gathering place?"

"Yes."

Oxygen nodded quickly and said, "The leader asked us to wait for you here."

"Where's your leader? Has he come over?"

Li Mu subconsciously stood on tiptoe and quickly scanned the lakeside, but did not see the blue and white armored plane that his brother had told her about.

Yes, Li Shan from the gathering place office is Li Mu’s younger brother.

Perhaps it was for this reason that Chu Tianming sent Li Mu to cooperate with Tang Yi in launching a surprise attack on the other party.

"The leader is on the way." Oxygen replied immediately.
