Chapter 11 Convergence

Flying eastward, not long after leaving the barrier of the Guardian Land, Link found a team of four in the forest.Warrior, mage, ranger, priest, standard adventurer configuration.This was the first time he saw a human being in the game, so he didn't know if it was an NPC or a player like him.

As the distance got closer and closer, all four of them noticed the peregrine falcon above their heads. The mage squinted his eyes for a few seconds, then suddenly raised his staff, scaring the ranger at the side to stop it.

"Let go!"

"Are you crazy?"

The two refused to give in to each other, and the pastor hurried up to persuade him, "Hey, what are you doing?"

"What are you two doing?" The soldier also joined the ranks of questioning.

"That bird has obvious elemental fluctuations. It's a magical creature, and it happened to be a magic pet." The mage saw the peregrine falcon rising in the sky, and glared fiercely at his companion who ruined his good deeds.

"You also know that it is a magical creature?" The ranger stared back unwillingly, "Did you forget where this is? The guardian place of the Pillar of the Earth, the stronghold of the druids, I don't want to lose my life because of your reckless behavior .”

"What an idiot..."

Hearing the dispute below with his perception, Link laughed at the mage's whimsical idea, the ranger suddenly raised his head, and shouted with a changed face, "Go, it's a druid!"

The mage who also heard Link's words didn't bother to ask for a magic pet, and cast a few spells on his companions and quickly got into the dense forest.

Looking at their backs as if they were fleeing for their lives, Link was embarrassed. He thought he couldn't hear them at this height. It seems that this habit of talking to himself really needs to be changed.

It wasn't until the four of them ran away that Link didn't feel scared. Fortunately, they were afraid that the druid wouldn't make a real move. If there was a fight, he would definitely lose in a one-on-four.

After continuing to fly for about an hour, I finally saw the outline of Hegu Town.This is a small town built on a dry river.Surrounded by mountains on all sides, it occupies a small area, but has a city wall as high as four meters.There is a city gate facing Link to the west, and the guards are checking every person who enters and exits.

Unexpectedly, a small town is so heavily guarded. In order to prevent the situation just now from happening again, Link descended to the ground from a long distance and returned to his human form.After checking carefully to make sure there was nothing wrong, he strode towards the city gate.

"A new face I haven't seen before." A middle-aged man with a scar on his face stopped Link and looked him up and down carefully. "Not a local?"

"Orion in the mountains." Afraid of making a mistake, Link didn't even dare to report the location.

"An empty-handed Orion? What are you doing in Hegu Town?" The man with the scar seemed to recognize that Link was suspicious, and asked endlessly.

Just when Link was struggling to find an excuse, there was a smell of barbecue in the air, and he had an idea, "Looking for a job, if it doesn't rain, all the animals in the mountains will go upstream where there is water."

After acquiring the ability to fly, Link saw a river near the Pillar of the Earth from the sky. Most people would not dare to enter the guarded land guarded by druids, and they could not find enough prey to go to the city to find work. Such arguments should be able to prevaricate.

After staring at Link for a while, the man with the scar let him go, "Go in, don't make trouble."

Link didn't dare to delay, so he left immediately.

"Captain, you are too nervous."

"Bah! What do you know, have you seen his hair and skin color? The real Alkins, those wild people who have lived in the forest for many years, are tough and tough, and their skills are no worse than mercenaries. If you get angry, you will do it. They don't care about you. Militia or hooligans."

"Even if he is a mountain dweller, with so many adventurers in the town, how much trouble can he cause."

"Proceed with caution! How many brains do you have to bear any accident?"

From the conversations of the guards, it can be heard that there is a reason for this investigation. Out of a low-key and trouble-free attitude, Link quickened his pace and got into an empty alley.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with me, there is only one day before the agreed deadline, so I have to find Su Wu quickly.

Soon, Link found the target—a wrought iron signboard inlaid with a wine glass.Regardless of novels or games, taverns are one of the most important sources of information.As soon as he entered the door, he regretted it.The dimly lit tavern was full of smog, alcohol, sweat, and low-quality perfume mixed together, stimulating his sensitive sense of smell.

There were three burly men sitting at a table near the door, and they shouted at Link, "Hi~ We still have a spot here."

Glancing around from the corner of his eye, Link shook his head when he was sure he was talking to himself.

"I'm waiting for someone."

"Boy, I called you to join because of your face." Another stronger man slapped the table and stood up. His loud voice caused people around to turn their heads.

Not wanting to cause trouble, Link was about to leave when someone grabbed his shoulders, and then a somewhat familiar voice came from behind.

"He has a team." An understatement made the three strong men sit back with forbearance.

Link turned his head, and saw that the man was wearing a robe as bright as blood, with gleaming runes embroidered on the lapel and cuffs, and a transparent crystal scepter pinned to his golden belt.

"Su..."

"To shut up!"

The mage dragged him to a remote corner, sat down and pulled down his hood, and it turned out to be Su Wu.He stretched out his hand and clicked in the air. A hexagonal barrier was placed under the hood, and the noisy tavern immediately became silent, and the voices of the people around him could not be heard, as if watching a movie without sound.

This show made Link a little envious.If you want to talk about style, the fantasy world is still the most popular mage.

When the sound-proof barrier was fully opened, Su Wu looked Link up and down: "I thought you wouldn't be able to complete the training within ten days. How could those druids let you go so easily?"

"This...it's a long story. You were so sure that I would meet you in ten days?" Link always felt that Su Wu hadn't told him the truth.

"I checked the druid information in the psychic hall in Hohenheim, and said that they have a special inheritance and can learn natural spells in a short period of time." Su Wu had an expression of "as expected", but fortunately he didn't Too much entanglement with the inheritance of the Son of Nature turned the topic to the purpose of the two meeting in Hegu Town.

"I went to the Adventure Union to inquire. In the past few months, there have been no particularly difficult tasks. There are usually no leapfrog tasks in Novice Village. If you want to know Yuan Ye's whereabouts, you can only conduct a carpet search."

"Did you find out anything at the Guardian Land?" Su Wu was very interested in Druids.Since the Silver Age, the relationship between humans and nature has gradually deteriorated. All he has learned is the history written in books, and there will inevitably be some discrepancies.

"Xinshou Village is very closed. I stayed there for eight days and knew nothing about the outside world. The only news from the outside world was that the druid who blessed the spirits in Hegu Town disappeared. That's why I was able to leave early. By the way, I I met a four-person team at the edge of the forest, and their tone seemed to be the same as ours. Xiao Wu, how many people are there in this game illusion?" Link still has lingering fears about being caught by a mage as a magic pet.

"I don't know the exact number. Some people speculate that it's at least tens of thousands, as did the three guys who picked on you just now." Su Wu glanced coldly.

"Why do you look like a foreigner?" Link turned around, and it was indeed a Caucasian appearance.

"Are you so sure that this game is only spread in China?"

After Su Wu dialed, Link immediately understood.

Western fantasy themes have always been a minority in China, and Chinese people have a higher acceptance of Xianxia, ​​and it is more reliable to say that it is imported from abroad.

Su Wu took out a hand mirror from nowhere, "Look at your own face first."

"What's going on?" Link stood up in shock when he saw the image in the mirror, his facial features became more three-dimensional, and he looked like a foreigner.Obviously what I see on the computer is my own face, why does it change in the illusion?

"You just treat it as a system modification. This game was originally set in the Middle Ages. All those who came in, regardless of region or race, have been changed to look like Caucasians." Su Wu retracted the hand mirror, "I can remind you in advance, Players can attack each other here, as long as you do it without anyone noticing, there is no so-called red name punishment in online games, and you should avoid contact with other players until you have enough self-protection ability. For those who are only looking for excitement To put it bluntly, this is a criminal paradise, and killing people will not be punished by the law. Some people are not even satisfied with the killing of individuals, deliberately triggering wars between countries and races. Knowing the danger, why are so many people addicted to it? Healthy body, Countless money, sitting on three thousand beauties, being named king, as long as you have the ability, you can do anything that cannot be achieved in reality." Su Wu's cold eyes made Link's back feel cold, which was different from reality In the game, he is already an adult, and his appearance is actually a little older than Link, and there are even fine wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

According to Su Wuyi, the fear and worry that Link had suppressed all along resurfaced.Just when he was about to ask in detail, Su Wu got up and called for the bill, saying that it was not suitable for a detailed discussion here, and asked Link to go with him.

In the pre-rented guest room on the second floor, Link met another companion that Su Wu mentioned—a very masculine uncle who was around forty years old.

"His name is Gonzalez, and he is Spanish. You may have a common language."

Link couldn't afford to complain about Su Wu's introduction. What I want to know is not a common language. I just said not to contact other players casually, so I'm taking him to meet strangers.

"He is one of the few people I can trust in the game." Opening a larger sound-proof barrier, Su Wu made a request that Link didn't expect, to transform.

Unable to resist Su Wu, Link finally turned into a white deer form in front of the two of them.

"It is indeed the Son of Nature." Gonzalez nodded to Su Wu. He is one of the few players who has seen the Son of Nature NPC.

"Hey~ what do you mean?" Link was unhappy, didn't this clearly show his doubts about him.

"He didn't mean any harm, he just wanted to make sure that you were really chosen as the Son of Nature. No one has ever been able to get this job before." Gonzalez has a strange aura that makes people feel at ease and trust, Link is puzzled , but it is not easy to attack.

"Don't say those spoiling things, and don't forget the purpose of our coming here." Gonzalez flirted with Su Wu, who curled his lips and apologized to Link in a serious manner.The two took turns explaining the 'common sense' that Link must know in the fantasy world of the game.
