The Age of Machines

Chapter 1297

The glutinous rice dumpling was helpless.

The most popular thing is that Shen Si took them to find Leng Qi and heard some uncomfortable words.

Although a good result was obtained, the process was not satisfactory.They need to think too much. If they were doing it before, they wouldn't let people act so boldly in front of them.

"Just call me Shen Si." Shen Si stood up and stretched out his hand to Rashomon, his eyes were bright. "I've heard about it for a long time."

Rashomon is a legend.

Only masters do not respect national boundaries for players.

Rashomon stood up and shook back.

"Hello."

Seeing Shen Si's appearance, Long Li sneered even more. "I haven't seen the world."

Shen Sidang didn't hear it.

Nuomi Duanzi pinched Long Li's arm, "Don't worry about these things."

Long Li turned his head and did not express any thoughts.

Rashomon and the others were confused, but seeing the awkward atmosphere, they asked, "About that matter, have you guys already found a solution?"

The glutinous rice dumpling nodded.

"Should have news soon."

Rashomon was a little worried, "The other party is someone who can keep a secret."

"Don't worry." Shen Si answered. "As long as he promises, he will definitely not break his promise."

he?
Naturally, Rashomon was not as familiar with Granin as they were with glutinous rice balls, and they could only rely on Longli and the others for this matter.Everyone chatted about homework, and Rashomon expressed interest in many customs in Granin.

Several people were chatting, and the sight of them constantly looking at them became empty.

Touch about 10 minutes or so.

The burly man behind the counter came out and whispered something in Shen Si's ear, Shen Si couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth.After the strong man left, Shen Si spoke to Nuomi Duanzi and the others, and everyone looked happy and hurriedly left the tavern.

on the road.

"Really found Statham?"

Shen Si just told them that there was news, but did not say whether he had found Statham.

Shen Si shook his head.

The glutinous rice dumplings were a bit disappointing.

That's probably just finding an NPC who knows Statham.Maybe it's just knowing the identity of this person, and it may not be possible to ask him where he is.

"I actually don't know the specific situation." Shen Si apologized a little, "Leng Qi asked someone to give me the coordinates, so I will take you there to ask that NPC."

"No problem."

Rashomon shook his head, no matter how much it was a clue.They don't necessarily buy this clue with money, so apart from disappointment, they naturally don't complain about anything.

They were begging Shen Si for help, and they would not put on a domineering look.

Shen Si knew they were in a hurry.

Stop talking nonsense now, and lead everyone all the way to the coordinates.

Soon, they arrived at the target NPC.

"That NPC is a Babylonian blacksmith named Drucker."

Standing at the corner of the street, Shen Si whispered to Nuomi Duanzi and others beside him.

A group of people subconsciously went to the blacksmith shop where Drucker was.

The blacksmith's shop is right next to a road, and there are people coming and going. Drucker is now forging weapons outside, looking very busy.

It was precisely because it was on the eye-catching street that Shen Si didn't bring glutinous rice dumplings and the others to go directly there.In Granin, if you wear a cloak and don't show your true face, no NPC will ignore you.Unless the player's reputation is extremely high, the NPC will not care about these.

But for players like Rashomon who seldom come to Granin, if they appear in front of NPCs, they will only be treated like air.

The glutinous rice dumpling has a high reputation in the Imperial Capital of Gelanlin, but here, the reputation of the Imperial Capital does not work.Because the city lord of this city is already a player.

It means that it is no longer the property under the jurisdiction of the system.

This difference came out after Beixi became the first player to become the main city.

At that time, players never thought of being able to manage a city as the lord of a city.Until Beixi became the lord of the city of Brie, under the economic operation of the entire city.

Only then did the players understand that anything is possible in the prosperous age.

The entire group has no prestige here.

The only one with reputation is Shen Si.

Shen Si hesitated for a moment, "My reputation is good enough, but there is one thing. Although Drucker is a blacksmith, he is also an NPC with high IQ in Babylon. I may not be able to draw the line about Statham."

"It's okay, just try."

Hearing what they said, Shen Si didn't shirk anymore, and went to Drucker's side.

"I'm curious." The pocket watch rabbit approached the glutinous rice dumpling and asked in a low voice: "How did the people here know that the NPC knew Statham?"

"Perhaps after mentioning the name, the player's reputation allowed the NPC to speak independently."

But those players didn't take over the task just yet.

No matter what, this Leng Ke still keeps his word.

Nuomi Duanzi remembered this kindness in his heart.

Shen Si talked with Drucker for a short time, two to three minutes, and Shen Si came back with no expression on his face.Seeing his appearance, Long Li, who was leaning against the wall, said: "It seems that he returned without success."

Shen Si scolded him, "You brat."

Long Li laughed, "Looks like I'm right."

Nuomi Duanzi and Rashomon looked at Shen Si together, feeling the gaze from under the cloak, Shen Si coughed and said, "Druke is a little wary of me."

"Why?"

"Maybe there are more people inquiring about Statham today, and he himself will get some information from other NPCs, so he thinks that someone is looking for Statham, so he ignores my question."

Rashomon was silent for a second, and asked aloud, "Is it because of the previous reward?"

Let the players in Babylon pay attention to the NPC Statham.So ask around.

"Whether it's a reward or not, as long as they don't find out, they won't know what this NPC does." Nuomi Duanzi said.

Long Li said at this moment, "Glanlin's bounty mission is not as fast as you think. Many players do not rely on adventure missions to make money, so the news can only circulate around the adventure union."

"Is that what came out when the people who were indifferent to him inquired about it?"

Shen Si shook his head in denial.

"A person who is cold will only inquire in his own network, and then let the player confirm."

Hearing this, several people couldn't help but think deeply.

In other words, the person who caused the name Statham to circulate around here was not cold, and it might not be the reward task.So, besides them, there are people from other forces who are inquiring about the whereabouts of this NPC?
"What Leng Chen has always promised, will definitely be kept secret."

So it is impossible for the news to get lost from him.And he didn't have to.What good will it do them if the news gets out?
If the machine age succeeds in taking this task, they will not only have a favor from the machine age, but also have materials to build the city.

Killing two birds with one stone hardly does them any harm.

Shen Si's words dispelled their suspicion that Leng Chen did it on purpose.

"You talk to him, is this NPC tight-lipped anyway?"

Shen Si nodded helplessly.

"I will contact Leng Hao and ask someone to find out who else is asking about Stanley Jielin besides us."

"Thank you, Shen Xiaosi."

Long Li patted his shoulder heavily.

Shen Si gave him a back view and went to the side to contact Leng Chen.

Nuomi Tuanzi opened the friend bar and sent Beixi a message.

Beixi was still talking about things with Wuli Wuzhong, when a message came from Nuomi Duanzi, Beixi raised his hand to tell Wuli Wuzhong to shut up, and Wuli Wuzhong had to swallow half of what he said.

Beixi made a phone call.

Connected there soon.

Nuomi Duanzi told Beixi about the general situation.

"Is there anyone besides you who is asking about Stan Senjelin?"

Beixi couldn't help frowning.

This thing really surprised her.Not many players know about this NPC so far. Even if they know, players will never know that there is a mission on this NPC to open the copy of the material.

Because it was impossible to trigger the Dark Year before it came. Although it has come now, if the player's various conditions are not met, then the task cannot be triggered.

Beixi thought that the task line on Stanley Jielin was only mastered by him.

"Are you sure there is another force that is asking about Statham?"

"It shouldn't be wrong."

At this moment, Shen Si came over, "Leng Hao said that there is a group of people who are inquiring about an NPC in the city of Babylon. But it is hard for him to say which faction they come from."

"The other party is wearing native Babylonian clothing."

Nuomi Duanzi relayed the words to Beixi.

Beixi pondered for a moment.

"You said the NPC who knew Statham's whereabouts was a blacksmith?"

"The local blacksmiths in Babylon..." Nuomi Duanzi thought for a while, "One forges weapons and the other builds houses. What is the connection between these two people?"

Hobbies are different.

"What is your name?"

"Drucker."

Beixi seemed to have some impressions, "Don't ask the NPC again, find a place to rest. I will trouble you today."

"Why are you being polite to me?" Nuomi Duanzi was a little displeased.

"Tomorrow, I'll go to Granin's side. You guys keep an eye on those people and find out their details. I want to know who they are."

"it is good."

Beixi hung up the call, put his hands on the table in Wuli Wuzhong, and held the city structure map of the entire city of Leslie on the table.At this time, he also forgot what he wanted to say before, listening to Beixi talking with someone, he came to some conclusions.

The corner of his mouth pulled, and he asked, "What's the matter? Someone is also looking for the NPC you mentioned? Has the news leaked again?"

Nowadays, the mechanical age really can't hide any secrets.

"Impossible." Beixi firmly rejected his idea.

"I didn't tell anyone in the guild, only Nuomi and the others."

Wuli Wuzhong narrowed his eyes slightly.

"It's possible..."

"Put your thoughts away." Bei Xi pursed her lips.

"Wuli, your idea is very dangerous." The civet cat spoke beside him, and the pet cat in his hand also called out at the right time.

Wuli Wu got up and looked back and forth between the two, "Your ideas are dangerous."

Sit back in the chair.

"Beixi, don't blame me for not reminding you. You shouldn't believe everyone. Be careful and you will never recover again."

Ning Que can betray the mechanical age, who else can't?
"What reason do Nuomi and Rashomon have to betray?"

"Then Ning Que, who has everything, has no reason to betray the guild?" Wuli Wuzhong asked her back.

Bei Xi had an answer in his heart, but he just didn't want to believe it.

Turning his head and sighing with a heavy heart, Beixi's tone was cold. "I don't want to talk about it."

"I'll take care of this matter." Beixi looked at him, "According to what I just said, work will be suspended for the next two days. You let people watch the market price, and once it drops, let people raise it."

Beixi was about to leave after finishing speaking.

There was a bit of doubt in Wuliwu, "Where are you going?"

"library."

"Bang" the door slammed shut.

Wuli Wuzhong put away the map in a restless mood.

His eyes touched Tanuki who was teasing the cat, "Why is she like this?"

"What kind?" The civet cat was puzzled.

Wuli Wuzhong sneered, "You see, she doesn't want to discuss that topic."

"So what?" The civet cat lowered its eyes, "It has already happened, so what's the point of discussing the reasons for Ning Que's betrayal now?"

"At least a lesson can be learned."

"The lesson has been learned. However, not everyone's betrayal will have the same reason, and people's hearts are unpredictable."

Wuli Wu let out a long sigh.

"What's going on inside the guild now?"

Civet cat's voice is very soft, "Once there is a crack in trust, it is only a matter of time before it collapses."

"The massacre of the city should start soon."

After Bei Xi left the auction house, he went directly to the library.

I went to the familiar floor and found the numbered, unnamed ancient book on the wooden shelf.

Pull it out and start flipping through it page by page.

Drucker.

The name is really familiar.

A quarter of an hour later, Beixi finally found the word [Drucker] on more than 100 pages.

In the past, Beixi read this book from the beginning in order to understand Statham's preferences.Many of them have no impression, but they still have a deep impression on Drucker.

To say why.

In the book, Statham mentioned that when he traveled to the city of Babylon in Granin, because he wanted to build a Babylonian-style hut, he was attacked by [Nuby Bear] when he was looking for materials. Drucker saved he.

In gratitude, Statham refurbished the house where he lived, and the two became friends.

Later Drucker gave him a short sword as a gift.

The reason why Bei Xi had a little impression of this was mainly because the dagger hanging on Statham's body was another clue to start another mission.

It was at that time that this task was completed by other players.

Beixi was also annoyed by this for a while.

"This should be a breakthrough."

While waiting for Nuomi Duanzi and the others to reply, Beixi and the others sent people to the next location to look for Statham's whereabouts, but there was no news.

Now that there is finally a clue, Beixi naturally doesn't want to give up easily.

After closing the book, she decided to go to Granlin tomorrow to complete this task and find Statham.

Putting the book back to its original position, Beixi walked down the stairs.

After she left, a figure walked out from the other side and came to the place where Beixi was just now.

In a row of books, he took out the books that Beixi had put in before.

About to open the page.

At this time, a voice without any emotion came from the right.

"It was you who sent someone to inquire about Stan Senjelin?"
