Ark, I became an NPC in the online game

Ursula bowed.

After returning to the pickup truck, the three players watched as the pioneer from the Sakta tribe went down to negotiate with the "enemy" for a while, and actually brought back a beautiful girl from the Sarkaz tribe. They were surprised and shocked. Was this pioneer too proud, or was he too charming, so that a beautiful girl couldn't walk when she saw the pioneer?

Where does the face come from? It's all about money.

Xia Yuan is expected to stay in Kazdale until the end of the year, and Ursula will naturally move with him. At present, he has only paid a deposit, and his salary is paid monthly. When Ursula saw Xia Yuan showing her his account, she was shocked by the pile of zeros after the balance. This was the first time she had seen so much money in her life.

Thinking of the fate of Sarkaz and Kazdel, she felt a little depressed at the realization that she had to bow to the enemy of her nation, Sakta, for some money.

"This is Ursula, the mercenary from Scar Market. She will act with us when we are in Kazdel." Xia Yuan introduced to the players and Senomi sitting in the last row.

"Just sit next to me and show me the way."

"Understood, employer."

There is no signal in Kazdel. It sounds like Kazdel has a mobile city with signal. Xia Yuan began to listen to the record he bought on Columbia and hummed along with the rhythm.

Ursula had let down her initial guard, but she was still a little restrained because she felt that she could not beat the blonde Caprini woman sitting behind her with a faint smile on her face. If she dared to attack her employer, her neck would be broken in the next moment.

Zarak, who was sitting next to the Caprini woman, looked particularly pitiful. Ursula noticed that when she looked over, the girl buried her head in her knees as if she was afraid.

"Why are you scaring the child? Take back your murderous intent."

Xia Yuan was immediately dissatisfied when he saw that the mercenary he hired actually scared his future maid and secretary.

The corners of the Jian's mouth curled up slightly. Ursula looked innocent. She just took a curious look. Okay, where did the murderous intent come from?

The battlefield of the undead was far away from the main battlefield. To put it simply, both sides wanted these cannon fodders to stay away from them, lest one day their own people would be sacrificed. Although Xia Yuan had a map, the location and coordinates were not accurate. With the help of Ursula, they still identified the direction and drove towards the battlefield.

At night, there were no supply points or villages nearby. Xia Yuan lit a bonfire next to the pickup truck, and everyone sat around it for a short rest. Ursula was surprised to find that the three people sitting in the back of the car had disappeared at some point, and asked, "Are you working with the undead?"

"Do you know any information about the undead?" Xia Yuan asked curiously.

Ursula nodded slightly. She sat upright, took the hot water handed to her by the mace and said thank you softly. From this point of view, she was very polite and well-educated, not like a mercenary. She held the hot water cup with both hands to keep warm and said softly, "Scar Market is the center for exchanging information. I heard from the mercenaries who fought against the undead that they would turn into white light and disappear after death, and then resurrect again. They mostly act in groups, and sometimes even if they are not dead, they will disappear inexplicably."

"..."

Xia Yuan thought the summary was very accurate. After being killed, wouldn't it be a countdown? As for not dying and disappearing... I guess it means it's offline?

"What do you think of the undead?"

Ursula was silent for a moment and commented, "Terrible foreigners. If they were trained into an army, they would be the sharpest blades."

"In fact, that's what's being done right now in the Civil War."

Xia Yuan pondered for a while. Senomi had fallen asleep leaning against the campfire. He gently stroked her face. Senomi seemed to be experiencing her dark past in her dream and was trembling all over.

He nodded to Mace, and the blonde lady stood up, picked up Senomi, carried her back to the car, and covered her with a blanket.

"What do you think of Kazdel's future?"

What do boys like to talk about in the dormitory at night? Class beauties, school beauties, silly things that make people laugh, and key words.

Ursula's expression changed slightly.

"I am looking at this from the perspective of a bystander, not from the perspective of a Sakota. Currently, there are only two ways for Kazdel to restart."

"Which two methods?" Ursula hugged her knees, looking at the campfire with her golden eyes, as if flames were burning in the depths of her eyes.

Xia Yuan said, "One is to concentrate all military forces, use military strength to challenge other countries, use war to give Kazdel a chance to breathe, and at the same time let Kazdel recover in the war... This method reminds me of the former Ursus Empire."

"The second method is to unite all the Sarkaz people and save every Sarkaz, every infected person, and every oppressed person. However, this method is too difficult. Even if this result is successful, in the end it will only be an ordinary country that is still discriminated against by the Terrans."

Ursula pursed her lips and stared at the campfire in a daze.

"On one hand, there are the wounds caused by war, and on the other hand, there is coexistence. I wonder what choice the Sarkaz will make now."

"Is there a third way?"

Xia Yuan hummed, looked up at the starry sky and said, "I am not interested in the civil war between the two kings, but I dare say that when the Sarkaz no longer need iron-fisted politicians like Theresis and Theresia, they will finally be free. After all, they have to liberate themselves."

"..."

Ursula was silent, then stood up and drank the water that had already cooled down a little. "I'm going on patrol first. I'll be on guard tonight."

The pink-haired girl walked away quickly, and Mace returned to the campfire with a faint smile.

"Do you always like to say something so profound? This mercenary lady should be about your age."

"Because the future of Kazdel now lies in this group of young people, except for those old immortals." Xia Yuan complained, took a sip of water and sighed, "The civil war cannot be ended in the short term. There must be a winner between the brother and sister, but what about the subsequent results? It is nothing more than one of two paths. Fundamentally speaking, I believe that war can solve everything and use war to unite Kazdel."

"As a race that lives with Originium, the Sarkaz have encountered too much discrimination on this land. They have been away from their homeland for so long that they have forgotten what home tastes like. So they desperately need a war, a bloody war to make the Sarkaz recognize themselves as a member of the Sarkaz race."

Mace chuckled, "Boss, you want to intervene in the Sarkaz civil war? Even if I were to face multiple Sarkaz kings, I wouldn't be able to protect you from them."

Xia Yuan cursed with a smile: "How is that possible? I still cherish my life. Those old monsters in the royal court are hundreds of years old. What can I do to fight them?"

"Perhaps in the future there will be a king who will unify the Sarkaz..."

After sighing, Xia Yuan stood up and said, "You should also rest early and keep your strength."

"clear."

Silent all night.

The next day, Ursula continued to show the way for Xia Yuan. It was as if they had never communicated last night. The relationship between them was still that of employer and mercenary, neither too distant nor too close.

During the break, Xia Yuan browsed the forum and saw a live broadcast post at the top. Since it received a lot of replies, Xia Yuan clicked on it to take a look.

"Family members, who knows? It's really easy to find a job in Ursus. Not long after we entered the town, we asked a noble for a job. It was a mining job. Luckily, we both chose the miner secondary profession. We are really lucky."

There are quite a few replies below.

"Damn, they gave so much? Is the Ursus Empire so generous?"

"Is it a high-level NPC? Is the noble so easy to talk to?"

"Don't go, don't go. If you go, you will become infected!"

Looking at this comment...it seems that a player has already fallen into the trap and become infected, but his comment was quickly drowned out by the crowd.

The corner of Xia Yuan's mouth twitched. It seemed that there had been a similar plot in his previous life. It could only be said that the player was really very suitable to be a mercenary. If he was given a lot, he would really do it!

"The battlefield ahead is where the two armies are fighting..." Ursula reminded. Seeing that Xia Yuan didn't stop stepping on the accelerator, she immediately panicked, "You, what are you going to do? Are you going to die?"

"Are you afraid of the undead?" Xia Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Ursula gritted her teeth and said, "If you are not afraid of their endless revenge, then I am indeed not afraid, because you are my employer."

Xia Yuan smiled, the engine roared, and moved forward!

Chapter 47: Pioneer Construction Mission

For the first time, Ursula realized that her employer was a madman, driving a car on the battlefield like this. Although the war has not started today, who knows if the undead on one side will regard this pickup truck as a threat and rush forward without caring about their lives.

The roar of the engine attracted the attention of the "Undead" players. They all came to the fence of the camp, stood on tiptoe and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

"Which army sent more good brothers? The ones delivering supplies wouldn't drive their vehicles here, right? Damn, the rations here in Tracys taste terrible. Seeing the Yan country players eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks every day, I'm so jealous!"

"This sound doesn't sound like a transport truck. Which reckless NPC is patrolling the battlefield?"

"Alas, I regret choosing the Sarkaz. I'm fighting all the time. If I die in PVP, I lose experience. It's such a loss. I might as well choose another race. At least I can have a normal start."

"You are so shallow. Don't people choose Sarkaz because they hope to lick the tail and feet of the beautiful Sarkaz?"

Players swearing at each other is acceptable for a while in PVP, but from the beginning to the end, from the time they log online to the time they log off every day, all the players are in PVP.

Even experienced PVP players can’t stand this kind of gaming experience. How can you fight all day long?

Although experience comes quickly, there is still a countdown before you die and lose experience.

This made some ordinary Sarkaz players begin to envy the lives of players of other races. Oh my god, look at the decadent and degenerate life of the Columbia players. They can actually go to the town cafe to sit on the way to complete the task. The petty bourgeoisie sentiment is vividly written on the paper; look at the Yan country players, there are Chinese food every day, sweet and sour, bitter and spicy, and there are cute and young cheongsam girls to brush up their favor, isn't it wonderful? Look at the Casimir players, how many times have the pioneers visited the players there? Those players really don't know how to appreciate their blessings!

The Sarkaz players did hope that the pioneer would come here to sell things, but when they thought that his race was a Shakota, they became even more desperate. What was a Shakota NPC doing in Kazdel? Was he courting death?

Some Sarkaz players already want to desert. They are tired of the endless war and just want to find a place to bask in the sun and have afternoon tea. Screw the war! They just want to lie down.

The players found that the pickup truck stopped in the center of the battle, the engine was turned off, and a Sakota with a golden halo on his head walked out from the driver's seat.

"Hey, does that military pickup truck look familiar?"

"Wait, someone is coming down from above, WC, it's a Sakota, no, it's a pioneer!"

"Ahhhhh, I'm a pioneer's dog. No one can stop me. I want to go buy some equipment!"

With the first video of Magic ZX, every player knows this mysterious NPC who sells weapons, equipment and occupation books. Sarkaz players are no exception. Their most common complaint is that it is a pity that this mysterious NPC is from the Sakta tribe. Who told them to choose the Sarkaz? Angels and demons can't be friends, and players are also jealous.

But today, they actually discovered that this pioneer had come to the battlefield of Kazdel?

In Magic ZX's video, they learned that this pioneer had no so-called mortal hatred for the Sarkaz, and was an extremely special protagonist-type character with a broad mind and noble character. Now that they have come here, they should be able to trade with him, right?

The players were ready to move, and they soon discovered three players who had triggered the hidden plot getting out of the car. They said something to the Trail Blazers, and the three of them split into two groups and walked towards the positions of both sides.

The equipment they were wearing looked obviously much more advanced, and the one who was close to the water got the moon first, which made the Sarkaz players feel even more jealous.

Dan Dao Dan Tart came to Theresa's camp with a bloody long sword. When he was talking with the pioneer before, a task was triggered, [Pioneer's Request], which required him to explain to both sides that he was neutral. The adventurers from Casimir heard about what happened in Kazdel and were worried about the adventurers' health and supplies, so they came with goodwill, hoping to postpone the dispute. At the same time, if they needed any equipment and supplies, they could buy them from him.

The ones who greeted Egg Knife and Egg Tart were players from Theresa's Army. Just like the Tracys Army, the ones who had the final say were a few gaming guilds and a few high-level players. However, unlike the Tracys Army which had professional teams like the Dynasty Team, Theresa did not have players from professional teams.

"Wait, Dandao Dantart, you mean the pioneers will provide us with supplies and weapons?" Yang YanXF asked. He was wearing simple mercenary clothes, which was a far cry from the armor on Dandao Dantart. "Isn't the pioneer Sakota? Why would he do this?"

Dan Dao Dan Tart shrugged, "You should have watched the first video of the magic teacher. The reason why he came to Kazdel has nothing to do with whether he is a Sakota or not. According to him, we are all human beings living on this land, and there is no distinction between high and low."

"As for why he knew about you, it was because he heard a player mention it when he was in Casimir, and he kept it in mind."

Yang YanXF sighed, "An NPC like this... is worthy of being the protagonist."

Dandao Dantart raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Is there no protagonist-type NPC in Kazdel?"

"Well, it's hard to explain." Yang YanXF smiled bitterly. There wasn't even a main city, and even those Sarkaz high-level officials only treated them like garbage. If it weren't for the money, experience and loyalty contribution points given by the missions, the players would have run away long ago.

In Tracys, Magic ZX and Qiu Muyu explained the situation, and the Dynasty Team members agreed very straightforwardly. Their purpose here was originally for money and experience, and they had no interest in why the two sides were fighting or why. It was a complete surprise that the Pioneers could come here, and as professional players they naturally would not object.

Their attitude is also the attitude of the players. To be honest, after fighting for such a long time, everyone is a little war-weary. If there are no rewards, who would want to fight for life and death on the battlefield every day?

Ursula stood beside Xia Yuan, "You don't want to talk and do business with the undead?"

"Why not?"

"Their origins are unknown, their birthplaces are unknown, their Originium skills are unknown, and not even one of them is infected. Although they are of the Sarkaz race, they don't look like Sarkaz people." Ursula said calmly.

"It would be nice if those high-ranking royal courts thought the same way."

Ursula: "..."

I always feel despised.

She heard footsteps and was surprised to find that the undead, who fought for their lives every day and were never afraid of death, had left their camp and were heading towards the center.

Ursula subconsciously took a step forward, wanting to protect Xia Yuan from the attack of the undead, but the next moment her wrist was grabbed by Xia Yuan.

"Come back, they mean no harm."

Ursula glanced at her employer, gently shook off his hand, and leaned against the pickup truck with her arms folded across her chest, with an expression that said, "I want to save you but you don't appreciate it, so I'm angry."

Mace smiled.

Glancing at the three players walking in the front, Xia Yuan sent the task settlement to them, stood at the center point, and began to speak.

"I am a pioneer. I come from Casimir."

"I heard from your companions that you all came from the same shelter, but separated halfway. You came to the battlefield of Kazdel and joined the armies of both sides to start the war."

"Rather than undead, I prefer to call you adventurers who set foot on this land to pursue your own goals. The war will never end, but I hope to create a little hope in Kazdel."

After these simple and easy-to-understand words were spoken, two prompt bars appeared in front of the players at the same time.

[The Pioneer's Store is now open to you]

[You have triggered the B-level prize pool task [Flowers on the battlefield]]

[Mission details: A mysterious businessman who claims to be a pioneer has arrived. He comes with a peaceful heart and steps on this scorched land with kindness. Regardless of race or history, he wants to create a town for the Sarkaz people to rest temporarily without being disturbed by war.]

"What's going on? It's a prize pool mission? The guaranteed experience is 100,000! Damn, this is so luxurious. Is my eyes blurry? Did I input the zero after the number incorrectly?"

"I remember that Pioneer also opened a reward pool mission last time, but it was about hunting claw beasts... This time it's more like a construction mission? Building a town, oh, collecting trees, stones and other raw materials."
