Reborn as a beautiful girl, I want to be the best in the world

But as if to show respect to the empire, these ships now slightly made way for the four ships and did not block the way ahead.

"Leaf, leaf, what do you think that is?"

Fili patted Ye Qing on the shoulder. As the ship approached, the players had begun to notice the "invisible" barrier.

Looking around, the transparent barrier continues to extend into the distance, and high walls can be vaguely seen in the distance.

"That's... uh, the Empire's defense barrier. From a plot perspective, this thing can destroy all enemies that attempt to invade."

Ye Qing thought about it and decided to explain it as simply as possible.

As for more complicated things, you will naturally understand them after the God War version is launched.

Just when Feng Liaoyuan wanted to say something, a gust of wind almost made her lose her balance.

"That is?!"

When Feng Liaoyuan turned around and saw clearly the "thing" that brought the gust of wind, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Griffin Port, as its name suggests, naturally has griffins here.

Huge griffins flapped their wings and circled in the sky. The armored imperial knights rode the griffins, maintaining order in the port and inspecting the ships coming and going.

The gust of wind that just blew through Feng Liaoyuan was brought by a griffin knight.

"Good afternoon, dear adventurers~"

Right in the center of the deck, a griffin as big as an off-road vehicle stopped, and the knight on it turned over and bowed to all the players on the deck.

Although after the battles on the island, the players have become more or less accustomed to seeing huge creatures appear before their eyes.

However, this is the first time that creatures like griffins have appeared in front of players.

"Please be careful and don't get too close to this little guy. If it bites someone, I won't be able to take the responsibility."

The griffin knight's hearty jokes naturally drew bursts of laughter. He kept stroking the griffin's head, as if trying to calm it down.

"Knight, what's the matter? Do you need a ticket to enter?"

Naturally, there are many players who want to stir up trouble. Thanks to the advanced AI of Divine Fantasy, the NPCs can naturally give corresponding responses.

"Impatient adventurer, let me make it short. Everyone, please bring your identification with you before entering the port to avoid unnecessary trouble."

prove?

Many players were stunned at this moment. After all, this is a game. Isn’t the system the best proof of themselves?

Some smart players had already reacted, but they did not rush to speak. They just stared at the Griffin Knight, waiting for him to continue.

"Your certificates will be issued by the four nobles, and someone will deliver them to you when you disembark..."

Next is the introduction to the so-called city rules, which are basically the same as those in the city of Astra on the island, but are stricter in the imperial capital.

"Ye Zi, is this why you gathered us together?"

After listening for a while on the observation deck, Fili finally reacted and said with sudden enlightenment.

In fact, most players have realized at this moment that after getting on and off different ships, they will naturally be divided into different "camps".

Some people regretted not being able to be on the same ship with their companions, but some felt fortunate. It can be said that after the introduction of the Griffin Knight, many players began to contact each other.

These are the first batch of players to arrive in the imperial capital, which means they will be the first to experience the new content, although only for one week.

But this week is enough for players to distance themselves from each other, especially the major clubs that have been prepared.

"It will be relatively convenient if we are in the same camp for the following actions. If we are just scattered in other camps, even if we want to be a traitor, it won't be very effective."

Ye Qing nodded. The only people who were not online at the moment were Zhao Manying and Yue Liang. The eldest lady did not catch the boat.

When everyone got off the ship, just as the griffin knight said, the noble family in charge of each ship had sent people to wait under the ship and issued a badge symbolizing their identity to each person.

Chapter 100 Entering the City

"Will this thing be ineffective if I don't bring it with me?"

Feng Liaoyuan fiddled with the badge in his palm, as if he wanted to try out if it had any effect.

But as the camp title appeared above her head, she had no choice but to give up.

"What if someone simply doesn't want to take the badge?"

After Huangfu Wenning put on the badge, he followed Ye Qing and walked towards the city gate.

But this time there was no need to wait for Ye Qing to answer, as there was a commotion behind him.

Everyone couldn't help but turn their heads around, and the player who was stopped on the deck by the Griffin Knight started shouting.

“Put me down!!”

"Adventurer, please collect your badge first. It won't take up too much of your time. Otherwise, if you are an undocumented illegal resident in the city, I'm afraid the city guards will cause trouble for you."

The griffin knight smiled and grabbed the player's arm. Even though the level was not displayed, judging from the situation, there was probably a huge suppression in level and attributes.

Furthermore, NPCs generally have some special buffs, even at the same level, such as soldier NPCs in towns will have good attributes.

This is to maintain the balance of the game, and also to make the NPCs fit the background settings as much as possible.

You can't say that the knights of the empire are worse than the new players, right?

"Well, that's basically the outcome of trying to be so clever within the existing rules."

Ye Qing smiled. In the past, those players had already done a lot of research on how to exploit various loopholes.

Within certain fixed rules, there are basically no loopholes left for players.

However, within the more flexible rules, how far one can go depends on the player's own understanding.

"If you've made preparations before getting off the ship, you won't have to worry about these things. Let's go into the city."

No longer paying attention to the noisy players, Ye Qing turned his head and looked at the majestic Griffin Gate not far away, and ripples were stirred in his heart.

finally come back!

After rebirth, I will finally step into this city again. This will be the dream city that countless players are paying attention to.

The huge door with griffin patterns printed on it in the distance was slowly opening. There was no need for the griffin knights to lead the way, as everyone already knew where to go.

The silver-armored guards in front of the gate have raised their spears and cleared the way. The faint noise coming from the city has made the players a little impatient.

Heavy horn sounds rang out from both sides of the city wall, and the merchants and travelers passing by all consciously made way.

Around this Griffin Gate, countless eyes are focused on the players.

Even though they knew that these were just NPCs, under the effect of the completely virtual system, many players experienced for the first time what it means to be the center of attention.

Passing through the Griffin Gate, this long-awaited imperial capital officially appears before the players' eyes.

"Wow~"

Fili couldn't help but open her mouth slightly in surprise. She was not the only one who had such a reaction. Many adventurers were also shocked.

In online games of the past, due to limitations in functionality and presentation, many backgrounds, no matter how grand, might end up being mediocre.

But when players actually stand in front of such a realistic street, they can’t help but feel shocked.

Many, too many!

This is definitely the first time that players see so many “living” “people” in the game.

Countless NPCs were walking around the streets on their own, just like the streets in real life.

Peddlers hawking their wares, knights patrolling, travelers coming and going, strange creatures

Looking around, I'm afraid it's impossible to take in all of these extremely rich streets.

"This is much better than those 'open world' games that just pretend to be awesome."

Huangfu Wenning, who was standing next to Ye Qing, couldn't help but feel emotional. She was even stopped by a vendor next to her, who enthusiastically sold her an apple.

"Hey, this adventurer, you just returned to the imperial capital, right? You must listen carefully to what I have to say..."

"Traveler returning from afar, please listen to the whispers of the god Ibais."

"Don't miss it if you pass by it, take a look at it'～"

The key is that these NPCs are no different from real people. They can answer players' questions fluently and give answers that suit their own nature.

Under the powerful AI function of Huanmeng, everything seems to come alive.

"This is incredible. Previously, I saw mostly players in Astra. This time, I finally got to see how powerful Huanmeng's AI is."

Huangfu Wen Ning couldn't help but feel a little emotional. She had just politely rejected the NPC who wanted to be a "tour guide", but he immediately changed his target. His sweet words would probably make any real tour guide feel ashamed.

Without any so-called task restrictions, the players who entered the city immediately scattered and went looking for things that interested them.

"This is just the West City District. There are also four other districts: East, South, North, and Central. These are some of the places that are closer to civilians."

Ye Qing began to explain unconsciously. Everyone had already gotten used to her "prophet"-like behavior and just listened to Ye Qing's introduction quietly.

"The four major districts in the southeast, northwest and northeast correspond to the four city gates of the imperial capital: the Griffin Gate, the Red Dragon Gate, the Titan Gate and the Shadow Gate... Thank you. Basically, each gate represents the characteristics of each district to some extent."

Taking a glass of juice from Fili's hand, Ye Qing moistened his throat and continued to move forward with everyone.

Looking at the diverse scenery and NPCs around them, everyone couldn't help but be immersed in it.

It was as if they were really standing in a different world, experiencing it firsthand.

"Ye Zi, what are the origins of the names of the other three districts and the three gates?"

Jian Hongye, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but ask Ye Qing, for no other reason than that she was also very interested in these things around her.

The West City district represented by the Griffin Gate is so exciting, what about the other districts?

"That's a good question. Let me first talk about the Titan Gate."

Ye Qing nodded. She was now about to lead everyone to the city represented by Titan Gate.

"Titan Gate represents the North City District. The reason why it is called this is because there is a real Titan there. This thing cannot be seen in the Novice Village, and it is difficult for ordinary players to hunt it."

Ye Qing continued to speak, and everyone listened with great interest.

"The second is that that's the warriors' territory. Needless to say, what a Titan is."

Especially when she saw that those NPCs performing on the streets would be given tips by others, and even in the alleys in the corners, she could see street thugs fighting.

Volume 6: Empire

Chapter 1 Distinguished Guest

Just when Ye Qing was about to continue speaking, a figure suddenly blocked everyone's way.

Is it possible that I might run into trouble just after arriving in this imperial capital?

Whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, everyone couldn't help but look forward to it.

Standing in front of everyone was a young man in a red robe with his eyes covered by black cloth.

He looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he seemed to have a heavy air of decadence, which made people involuntarily want to distance themselves from him.

"Excuse me, are you Zero, the champion of the Brave Festival?"

After these words were spoken, everyone knew why the young man wanted to stop everyone.

Feili even pushed Ye Qing from behind and whispered in her ear with a smile.

"Champion, if anything good happens, don't forget us~"

"Don't make a fuss, it may not be a good thing..."

Ye Qing smiled helplessly, then took a step forward, as if to reveal his identity.

"That's me. May I ask what I have done wrong that warrants the Crimson Messenger to come after me?"

Scarlet Messenger?

Naturally, everyone is unfamiliar with this new term, but I think it won't take long for them to know it.

"Come with me."
