In Xuantian City, Lu Jiu and the others discovered that there were fewer and fewer wild monsters in the wild that were only at the brown iron level, and the ones most commonly encountered were at the brown iron mutant level.
When they returned to the city-state, they heard someone say that two teams encountered a brown iron-level BOSS outside. Fortunately, that team cooperated with other teams to go out together, and they had enough people to kill the BOSS.
However, regarding the BOSS reward, the two teams were arguing inside the city.
Lu Jiu and the others heard the curses reaching their ears at the city gate, and many people gathered not far away. People from their city-states gathered to watch the excitement, and they were familiar with the scenes.
“You said there were only these rewards, and those were the ones you killed. How can we be sure that what you said is true!”
“That’s right. If I knew you would make such a fuss, I wouldn’t kill that BOSS.”
“That’s a nice way to say, but when it comes to the final blow, you look like a vicious dog pouncing on its food. No one can stop you.” A man spoke with a hometown accent.
These words sounded so funny that Lu Jiu couldn’t help covering her mouth and laughing. Shen Jufeng and the others also couldn’t help but laugh.
The residents who gathered to watch the excitement also laughed.
The face of the man in question turned red, “I just wanted it to die soon. I didn’t expect that it would be the final blow.”
“Only you believe your words. Poof!”
After he said those words, he spat at the other party.
At this moment, the professional player who killed the BOSS became angry: “Anyway, I don’t owe you anything, I’ve already given you half of it.”
People on both sides were blowing their beards and staring in anger. After a while, they began to curse again. The one who killed the BOSS had blue veins on his forehead and was about to start taking action.
Just at this moment, the patrol NPCs arrived. The NPCs were watching eagerly, but they didn’t dare to take action.
In the end, everyone broke up unhappy. Seeing how fiercely they were arguing, Lu Jiu shook her head and said, “If you kill this wild monster, it will go directly into the pocket of the killer. It’s troublesome to split the rewards like this.”
In the past, there were ordinary-level wild monsters, and the rewards were only so small. Everyone could kill a few of them, and it didn’t matter how many others got.
But as the levels of wild monsters get higher and higher, and the rewards become richer and richer, people’s hearts become unpredictable.
Shen Jufeng also felt that the design of the game world was unreasonable: “Now, we can only live like this. Let’s go.”
Zhuang Yun didn’t think too much. He could feel that the two teammates didn’t care so much about the rewards dropped by wild monsters and instead enjoyed the battle process more.
Looking at the backs of the two of them, he sighed silently in his heart: What a terrible professional player, the nemesis of wild monsters!
They have been going to restaurants these days. The restaurant manager was awesome and often came out with new dishes. It seems that he wants to cook all their eight major cuisines, including foreign cuisines.
Today they were still sitting in the same place. After a while, someone sat by the window in front of them. They looked like old acquaintances.
The people on the opposite side turned around and saw them, “You’re back too.” It was Yao Bingan who spoke.
Since her city-state was disbanded, she brought most of her teammates to Xuantian City to settle down, but some decided to join other teams.
There were not many people in her team at first, but then Li Aoting came, and the two just merged.
Yao Bingan liked to be close to Lu Jiu, and when she saw her, she ran over and sat next to her.
Lu Jiu made a space for her to sit: “Recently, I came back around 5 o’clock when there were no wild monsters. I feel mentally tired after staying outside for a long time.”
“That’s true. I originally planned to go back to tell you the interesting things I heard today after dinner, but you happened to be here.”
Lu Jiu was curious, what other interesting stories could there be: “Are you talking about the quarrel between the two teams in the city-state today?”
Yao Bingan waved her hand: “It’s about the Longjiao City again. We’ve already left the city to clear the wilderness. The deputy captain over there saw He Ange leading many patrolling NPCs out of the city. Knowing he was going out to clear the wilderness, he asked if we killed wild monster over here.”
Of course, she replied that there were indeed wild monsters outside the city-state, but there were very few that could be encountered. And if they encountered wild monsters, they would always be in groups, so she suggested he bring more people.
Lu Jiu grasped the key point: “Take the NPC out to clear the wilderness?”
This operation was really powerful, and the NPCs were indeed strong in combat, but it was not a good thing to use them to help you clear the wild. Once you get used to sitting back and reaping the benefits, the consequences will be self-evident, and you will be ready to become a scumbag in the future.
“Yeah, it’s a big deal. The deputy captain and his group have quit the city lord’s team. He Ange couldn’t find anyone, so he took the NPC out and went out with a team with a ruthless style. I guess he was also afraid.”
Yao Bingan also reminded her: “That team was the group of people who killed ordinary residents there in the autumn. Anyway, they were very difficult to deal with before that.”
Lu Jiu frowned. He Ange cooperated with such a group of people, it was like dancing with wolves. No wonder, he thought of taking the NPCs out, and he agreed to let them patrol outside the city at a fixed time.
“He is the city lord, and it is his right to do this.” In the end, Lu Jiu only commented.
“That’s right. I never thought about letting NPCs go out with us to clear the wilderness. NPCs are NPCs. Since they are patrolling, just let them do their jobs.”
Yao Bingan felt that he was still a bit powerful at the beginning and was willing to rely on his strength to fight wild monsters.
Lu Jiu and the others just chuckled. When they looked up at Yao Bingan, they found that her expression was stunned, and then became serious.
“What’s wrong?” Lu Jiu asked her.
Yao Bingan frowned and told her in a low voice, “The deputy captain just emailed me telling me that He Ange is dead, and it’s not as simple as death. Things have become very troublesome…”
Shen Jufeng also looked up. The city lord was dead. Even if the person had a bad character, it was about life.
Lu Jiu was also shocked by the news, “He Ange died? How did he die?”
This was the beginning of winter, and a city lord had died. She doesn’t know what will happen to that city-state in the future.
Yao Bingan: “He was surrounded and killed by the team he was working with and other teams. This is troublesome.”
Lu Jiu glanced at her two teammates. Zhuang Yun was shocked by the news, while Shen Jufeng understood what she meant. If the city lord was killed, what rewards would be dropped, and what would happen to the city-state?
Yao Bingan soon received another email. When she saw the message inside, her face turned pale.
At this moment, she felt how terrifying the game world was.
Li Aoting, who was still sitting opposite, saw that her face was not good, and she also came over, “What’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell?”
Yao Bingan shook her head feebly, “It’s hard to talk about it here. I’ll talk to you when I get back.”
Although it was not clear what information she knew, it must be something big.
Longjiao City was already in chaos. Everyone was hurriedly packing their things. The deputy captain and other teammates formed a circle to protect their families.
Some children were frightened, but they all understood a little bit now, so they didn’t dare to cry.
The deputy captain and others looked at the crazy people outside and thought in their hearts that they must leave here immediately, without delay!
