I Captivate the Player

"I don't know yet. I always feel that it will be revealed at least in the middle of the game, or even in the later stage."

"By the way, if you were to fight against the people of Andochir in the plot of killing Samuel, which side would you choose?"

"Which side?"

"Black Singer" didn't quite understand, and "Veteran" explained to him: "You and I both know that once an NPC in this game dies, it won't come back to life, whether it's the enthusiastic Mr. Gad or the precocious , the servant An Er who always likes to pretend to be cool, but is actually only fifteen years old, and even the fat man of the sheriff, as long as they die, they will never appear in this world again."

"It's like a real death."

"But if you kill them, you can get huge rewards, or in other words, you have to fight against all players in order to save them. Which side do you choose?"

"Black Singer" smiled and said: "Then I will probably become an unqualified raider. I play games to make myself happy. I don't think killing and becoming stronger are the only ways to make people happy." .”

"I see." The "veteran" nodded and said with a smile: "This stronghold has been destroyed, at least that's what it shows on the black card and in the task bar. Let's go, let's go to the next place."

"it is good."

The players continued to go on the road for several days, and they were almost out of the snow barrier section of the snow environment, because the daily pleasure feedback became less timely, and the decline in game stickiness finally made them less liver.

Hei Ge began to spend a period of time every day to improve his game strategy and evaluation offline.

"In a calm mood" also lamented that he could not afford to spend it. The daily rental fee of the magic compass was too high. The only good news was that the merits of the knights were consumed instead of the merits of the brave, otherwise it would be really expensive.

Although the ratio of hero merit to knight merit is one to three, almost no one will change it, because many really good and practical magic items can only be unlocked and purchased with brave merit, while knight merit can only buy some small things that are icing on the cake.

On the way, they encountered some monsters and wild beasts at the beginning. After a while, they found that they could meet fewer and fewer wild beasts, and the monsters disappeared without a trace.

The "Black Singer" looked at the speechless white snow on the ground, and asked the "veteran" aloud, "What do you think is that there are fewer and fewer monsters on the road?"

The "veteran" thought for a while, and said: "From the perspective of the game, I can't judge, but if it is from the perspective of common sense, it may be because there are some kind of 'top predators' inhabiting the area we are about to arrive. A very powerful monster, and possibly a stronghold of... Orcs."

This is very likely. According to the map and information, the orc strongholds and tribes are mainly concentrated at the junction of the snow barrier section and the snowfield section. It is too unsuitable for survival to the north, and it is too close to the territory of the empire to the south.

After half a day, they finally found the orc stronghold, and it was a relatively large orc stronghold.

Because the "Black Singer" ran the fastest, the "veteran" decided to send him to touch it. Therefore, the "Black Singer" took a simple telescope made by the player to observe the situation near the stronghold.

It was built at a relatively high place, and the construction is relatively simple. There is a huge frozen lake and a large coniferous forest nearby. Hundreds of orcs are doing quite heavy work in the stronghold. They seem to be making troubles by the lake. dug a big hole and dug something underneath.

But because he was too far away, the "Black Singer" couldn't see what they were digging clearly, but he could see that the thing had a faint amber glow.

He ran back and said to others: "This seems to be a mining area of ​​orcs. They are digging and mining something, but I don't know what it is."

"There are two or three hundred orcs. They seem to be more disciplined than the stragglers we encountered before. I don't think we can eat them."

"What do you think?"

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and asked the rest of the players.

"Dry!"

"What? Can you beat me?"

"I've been walking on the snowy road for several days, and now I finally see Ben, and you won't let me do it? So what if I can't beat him?"

"Black Singer" smiled wryly, nodded and said, "It seems to make sense."

"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes" was a bit objectionable. He suggested: "But I think this place can't be done directly. It would be better to play with the Berserker's Creed. Isn't this kind of stronghold just for people to sneak in?"

"But we play the game of Berserker's Creed, isn't it just to kill without sneaking in?"

"It seems reasonable."

Just when the players started arguing, "Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes" moved his nose.

"We seem to be surrounded again."

"Damn, you're surrounded by anti-reconnaissance again, don't you have any anti-reconnaissance and hiding capabilities?"

"No."

"No, normal people don't have that stuff."

"alright."

"Black Singer" observed the enemies who circled back and gradually approached, and asked, "What should we do now? Although the enemies are orc elite monsters, their numbers are not many, and our level has increased so much. It’s also elite, there should be a dozen of them.”

"Do it!"

All the players of Silver Blade have the same opinion. After walking for a few days, it is really frustrating not to fight.

There are only thirteen orcs surrounding the players, twelve of them are cavalry scouts they have seen before, and there is an old orc who is the leader. His clothes are completely different from other orcs.

This old orc gave the "black song cutter" and "veteran" a very strange feeling. He was the only orc who did not ride a wolf. He carried a big sword on his back. It's a delicate little decoration, and the white hair is also well groomed, and the "Black Singer" sees a kind of deep gleam in his eyes.

It must be an illusion, he thought.

"But no matter what, this guy's appearance looks like a BOSS character, so he shouldn't be underestimated."

Black card, investigation.
