Mithril Throne of Forgotten Realms

As the sun set in the west, it slowly set behind the mountain peaks in the Far West. The orange sun took a last look at this continent, and cast shadows tens of feet long under the feet of all the hardworking players.

The players whose faces were dyed golden were chatting and laughing with each other, or chatting about the harvest of the day, or exclaiming that a new piece of equipment appeared on each other, but most of them were crowded in the southwest of the stone bridge. Appreciate the sunset in the open space, where you can see players raising their hands to take demos, or couples cuddling together.

Seeing Wildhammer dressed as a dwarf scholar, even Fang Yi, the image designer, couldn't help but laugh.But fortunately, the dwarf warrior finally deceived the sight of the relevant personnel and successfully blended into the crowd watching.

At this time, Shell no longer cared about pretending to be deep, and ran up the stone bridge with the players behind him, searching back and forth on the stone bridge where there were fewer and fewer players.

Fang Yi glanced at the druid who was swaying left and right with an anxious expression, and said goodbye to him, I have no time to waste time with you, young master.

Leaving the stone bridge and walking down the dwarf mountain, Fang Yi soon arrived at the place agreed with Lao Mo and the others, and saw the dwarf warrior showing off the epee in his hand again from a distance.

"No wonder you mages can't help chopping. With just one layer of cloth, I can cut you in half with one sword." Wildhammer had already changed his cloth robes and put on iron armor, and raised his shining one-handed sword at the old devil. After waving it twice, he said triumphantly.

The dwarf warrior was also holding a piece of rare equipment, which was produced by the final boss of a dungeon called "Blood Gold Coin" near Star Twilight City, and the drop rate was frighteningly low.The three of them cleared the dungeon when they participated in team activities for the first time.As the main tank, the Wildhammer did his part to obtain this sharp weapon with a weight of nearly 30 and +8% slashing damage.

So until now, the dwarves haven't equipped the one-handed sword with a scabbard, just for the wind.

Seeing that the old devil grinned and did not speak, Fang Yi, who walked up to the group of people, stretched out his finger and flicked the edge of the epee sword, making a ding sound, "Wildhammer, you can do this against unprepared mages. With protective spells, if you want a fatal blow, you have to change to a bigger weapon~"

Seeing Fang Yi coming over, several people were relieved.

"Fang Cui, this method of yours is really amazing. You wouldn't do this all the time before?" Laomo and Qinggang had already canceled the face-changing technique.Looking at the thieves who came over, he smiled and said, "It looks like a veteran~"

Fang Yi scratched his head modestly, and smiled, "It's a big deal, and sneaking in is my old profession. In this kind of game that encourages players to compete with each other, some experience is necessary. Let's go. Let's Let's find a camp first."

***

The small village at the foot of the highland occupies a large area, but the buildings on the four sides add up to only a dozen or so rooms in total. More than 60 npcs.

Except for taverns that do not provide accommodation services, grocery stores with mediocre products, and simple blacksmith shops that can only provide simple repair services, plus some npcs that make soy sauce—meaning that players have no idea where to find clues from these people Trigger tasks on the body - there are very few npcs that can effectively interact with the players.

So after nightfall, a considerable number of players chose to go offline, and those who stayed in the wild to camp were mostly the same as the Mithril Shell team, playing the idea of ​​leveling up as soon as possible to do advanced tasks.

The empty savannah is now covered with dots of bonfires, and the cheers and loud singing of players can be heard in the distance from time to time, occasionally mixed with a few howls of wolves, making Fang Yi, who has not camped in the wild for a long time, feel heartbroken Quite refreshing, as if returning to the time when I had a picnic with my friends a long time ago.

But now being followed by someone with a heart, few people dare to venture into the tavern, which is why our dwarf warrior looks sullen, muttering something like wanting to chop a certain druid into pieces.

"Okay Wildhammer, I know that druid can't resist your sword strike, but they must be looking for us in the wild now, don't be unbalanced~"

Unable to bear Wildhammer's chatter, the priest sitting by the campfire warming his hands tapped the dwarf warrior's big iron helmet with a mace, and couldn't help saying.

Hearing what the pastor said, Wildhammer patted his head, "It seems to be true, that shell finally found us again, and he definitely won't give up so easily, hehe, let him wander around. Hey Xiaoqing, you have a shell in your bag. Do you have beer?"

"Why am I packing beer!?"

"Didn't you say it's for barbecue, bring me some~"

……

Ignoring the bluffing warriors and priests, Fang Yi sat on the other side of the bonfire, discussing the sudden appearance of competitors with the old devil.

"How do you know this druid? We only met his team in the previous mission process, and we don't even know his id." Looking at the thief, the old devil asked in surprise.

Fang Yi smiled wryly and shook his head, "It's a long story, I came from the west gate on a smuggling boat, and the Shell team was also on board at that time, but there was some conflict, and they separated when they arrived near Xingmu City .By the way, let’s talk about the mission, are you sure they have this mission?”

"I'm sure." Speaking of the task, the mage's face became serious, and he told Fang Yi about the situation at that time.

The port of Star Twilight City is open to everyone, and there are many gentle rocks on the right side of the port, deep water area and shallow water area are all available, and many players go fishing there every day.When there are many people, it is not new to catch all kinds of strange things such as ancient copper coins and human skulls.

At that time, Lao Mo and the others were also looking for something fresh, and Qinggang's cooking skills also needed materials to upgrade, so they decided to go to the port to catch a few rods.

Because the fishing skills of several people are at the novice level, the area chosen is the most suitable shallow water area for novices, and there are many players around.Unexpectedly, the dwarf was bitten by the fishhook as soon as he shot it down, and after a long time of effort to pull it up, a shiny silver thing came out.

The fragments at that time were wrapped in silver light when they were just pulled out of the water, like some kind of precious equipment, attracting a large number of players to watch.Although the Wildhammer quickly put the things into the backpack, many people still saw the true colors of the fragments.

The old devil acted decisively, and immediately rejected the offer of thousands of gold coins from the players on the scene, and rushed back to the hotel with a few people.However, several people studied it for a long time, but they couldn't see anything strange about this fragment. The most famous appraiser in Xingmu City didn't say that it was Chou Yinmao, but said that the pattern on it had been seen somewhere in Xingmu City.

The three followed the clues and ran back and forth in Xingmu City.Unexpectedly, not long ago, this druid named Shell came to him on his own initiative and offered two hundred star diamonds to buy the fragments.

The old devil has rich experience in games, knowing that this small thing may have a big secret, so he rejected the deal.But this shell persevered, and in the end Wen's inaction became Wu's.

"Originally the few people in their team were quite strong, and they surrounded us and asked us to hand over the fragments. Unfortunately, they didn't think that we have been here for so long, how could we not have many friends?" Speaking of which, the old devil was sinister. With a smile, "We have about twenty brothers in the city. I procrastinated until my friends rushed over, but they only ran away with the druid and the thief."

"Two hundred star diamonds?" Fang Yi frowned, "If I don't have any clues, I'm afraid I wouldn't spend so much money to acquire a piece of unknown use."

The old devil nodded approvingly, "So I guess their mission may also have something to do with this."

Thinking of the hidden mission that Beike had told him before, Fang Yixin said that this matter was inseparable. It should be a mission, but he didn't know how Beike and the others found the mission clue in Ximen Port.

But... From Ximen to Xingmu, this seems to be the rhythm of a high-level task~ Thinking of this, Fang Yi became excited again, "They didn't trouble you again after that?"

"No more, and the team members they killed didn't seem to be with him this time," Lao Mo said after thinking for a while.

At this time, Qinggang's grilled wild fruit and wild mushroom soup was also ready, inviting several people to eat.

Fang Yi and a few people sat around the campfire, gnawed the roasted hot and sour wild fruit, sipped the delicious mushroom soup, felt his tongue and stomach groaning in satisfaction at the same time, and felt that he was also Slowly turned into a foodie.

The three foodies sent a lot of compliments to the chef in the team, but the priest with a calm expression had long been used to flattery from his teammates, but he was thinking about business.

"Fang Fang, how did the thief you killed get involved with that druid...the shell? I saw the group of people on the bridge talk to that thief a few times. They should be in the same group?"

Qing Gang tapped the iron pot with a branch to attract everyone's attention, and asked the thief looking at the unsightly food.

"It must have been stolen by the old devil." Fang Yi's tongue was scalded by the roasted wild fruit, and he was sucking in the air, speaking with a bit of a tongue, "I killed the thief, and the thing that fell out must have been stolen." Those who are interested have seen it, and the thieves will be reminded after they have successfully stolen, so they must have seen clearly what they stole."

Wildhammer, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, was chewing the delicious and juicy mushroom meat. He also interjected when he heard this: "That's right! That looks like a piece of tyrannosaurus scale armor? But what does it matter..."

"Damn it, you mean it was Shell and the others who beat the tyrannosaurus boss?" Lao Mo immediately understood Fang Yi's meaning and shouted.

"It should be their big army," Fang Yi patted his stomach contentedly, before the Wildhammer threw the last wild fruit into his mouth, "Didn't you say they joined a big guild?"

"The Celestial Dynasty," Qinggang added, "is one of the best guilds in Star Twilight City. I heard that they are preparing to apply for the establishment of a resident and the next monster siege."

"Then what should we do? If Bailing finds out..."

"We're not maliciously robbing monsters, so what if we know, we're afraid of them!" Fang Yi patted his chest arrogantly, but then lowered his voice, "But we have to think about the material of the backpack on Wildhammer's body." There is a way to hide it." (To be continued...)
