This naturally dispelled everyone's doubts. If something happened to Ye Qing, the captain, it would inevitably affect the morale of the troops.
"Everyone should report what they have gained as usual. Manying, we'll go first."
Ye Qing stretched out his hand and knocked on the table, while handing an apple to Huangfu Wenning beside him.
The group who had just finished dinner used the restaurant as a meeting room and began to prepare for a short meeting.
Every time such a short meeting was organized, Ye Qing would inevitably be nagged by the cook, and she would always help the cook to clean up the table with a smile.
"When we stopped at that port city today, just as Captain Ye said, something big happened in that city."
This port city, which should have been the busiest one, was silent even in the morning. Apart from the ships coming and going in the direction of the port, there were no other pedestrians on the streets.
Players who have just arrived in the city are also prohibited from traveling. According to relevant NPC soldiers, martial law is currently in place in the city.
The city lord made this decision out of consideration for the good of these foreign visitors, but if they stepped out of the hotel and entered the city without permission, what happened next would have nothing to do with them.
"Then I guess there must be some stubborn players who have tried it?"
Ye Qing smiled and took a sip of tea. How could the players stay in the hotel peacefully under such circumstances? Not having a direct conflict was already a great respect for the NPCs.
After listening to Ye Qing's words, Zhao Xin nodded, and then vividly described the process of those players' "jailbreaking".
In order to escape from this strictly guarded inn, the players used all their skills.
It would have been fine if the young man simply forced his way in, but this kind of person basically couldn't even get to the street. He was beaten up by the soldiers at the door, dragged back and thrown back into the inn.
Those who tried to use their brains a little more and tried to escape from the roof were forced back by someone pointing a crossbow at their head.
"The only one who succeeded was a certain Undead Slayer player from a professional guild. He used the corpse transfer to get himself out, but we don't know the details now."
Zhao Xin shook her head. She had thought about going out to have a look before.
But after seeing that the players who were thrown back were turned into red names and even had to be strictly guarded by the soldiers, she gave up the idea.
It would be fine if our rash actions now go undetected, but once they are discovered it will probably have a significant impact on the team.
"Very good, let them explore the way for us first, there is no need to act in a hurry. Sister Huangfu, how are you doing over there?"
Ye Qing nodded. It would be best to wait and see what happens now, especially when everyone has not yet obtained any information.
Breaking out is indeed a solution, but given the soldiers' extreme reactions and the airtight defense, Ye Qing can reasonably infer that there might be something terrifying in the city.
"It went very smoothly, even a little too smoothly."
Huangfu Wenning's side continued to advance along with the Orc tribe and had already captured two cities in a short period of time. This speed even made many players worried.
Since ancient times, even in wars with sufficient baggage, the issue of occupation must be considered, unless one is prepared to destroy the city.
However, the orc tribe did not directly destroy the occupied city. Instead, it used extreme means to clean up the city after taking it, leaving an "empty city" for the people sent from the Hiero Empire.
Chapter 84 Demon
The orc tribes seemed to only need to consider continuous advancement and did not need to worry about stabilizing the front line.
"That's understandable. After all, given the situation of the Western Continental countries, it is not necessary to occupy all the city-states and open up the way to their key cities."
Ye Qing understood this point clearly. In a war of this level and scale, it was impossible to occupy every city-state.
The only people who would do this are players in strategy games, who might choose this method when they want to collect them all.
Some principalities on the continent are even of little value in themselves, and there is no way for them to join the Hiero Empire.
"Yes, and then there is the mysterious guild that hunts players. They ran into a tough opponent today."
Huangfu Wenning smiled. This was the most exciting scene they had seen today.
Just twenty minutes before the siege was about to begin, Longyin's people went out temporarily for some unknown reason, probably because they had their own plans.
As a result, they happened to run into this group of guys who specialized in killing players, and the two sides started fighting without any nonsense.
It was just that the hunters relaxed their vigilance against the remaining Longyin contestants, probably because Wu Yonghe and others went to the East.
But they probably didn't think that the reason why Longyin is called Longyin is because the players in it have extremely strong strength.
"In the beginning, Bai Xun was the only one fighting against the group of hunters. She was a front-line soldier who held off the siege of five people and retreated back to the camp while fighting."
It’s a pity that no one took a picture of Bai Xun fighting five people alone, so naturally no one knows what method she used.
But when the noise had become so loud, it was too late for the five people to run even if they wanted to.
The first person to take action was naturally Longyin's contestant. The girl Chai Si, holding a pistol, rushed to the scene and demonstrated the strength of an agile contestant.
three minutes
It only took Chai Si three minutes to take down one person. Her quick and efficient approach made many people compare her with Ye Qing.
Especially now that Ye Qing is not present, such an instant kill operation is bound to be compared.
However, these five opponents are obviously not players on the legendary list, and their strength is still unclear, but at least it is not bad to be able to force Bai Xun to ask for help.
After the other Orc NPCs and players rushed out, the battle on Longyin's side was basically over, and only five bright red boxes were left on the ground.
"Have you found out more detailed information about this group of people?"
After hearing this, Ye Qing didn't feel any fluctuation in his heart. With the strength of Long Yin's people, even if Wu Yonghe was not there, dealing with such an opponent would not be a problem.
It would be more accurate to say that if Ye Qing was defeated by such an opponent, it would be somewhat surprising.
"No, not even to the guild. But judging from the red name and the equipment dropped, it is definitely for killing players. There is no valuable equipment at all."
Huangfu Wen Ning shook his head. Long Yin had made this information public to everyone.
After all, attacking players at this time would naturally harm the interests of most players and would inevitably lead to siege from other players.
What's more, judging from the actions of this group of people, this is not the first time they have hunted players. Even if they are not in the same guild, the five people coordinating to hunt players can be seen as a premeditated team action.
"And Longyin seems to be planning to take the lead and join forces to deal with this group of people. Captain Ye, Coach Li, how should we respond to this matter?"
The assistant coach beside him spoke up in time. After Long Yin killed those five people today, they took the initiative to put forward this "proposal" on the forum.
Messages were also sent to all major clubs, and @-ing other clubs' official accounts on the official forum, making it clear that he wanted all teams to respond positively.
After hearing the news, Ye Qing sneered.
"Anyway, the authorities don't prohibit such behavior, and strictly speaking, they haven't violated any rules. So, let's keep our intentions on the guild's cooperation, and as for the team... just handle it flexibly."
It's not like she hasn't seen shit like this before, especially when some guilds wanted to gain more say in order to exclude rival guilds.
Although Ye Qing also wanted to believe that Longyin's players would not do such a thing, sometimes even if the players did not want to do it, they could not do anything about it.
"It doesn't matter..."
"It doesn't matter. Just follow Captain Ye's instructions on this point."
The teaching assistant wanted to ask a few more questions, but Li Xuan beside him had already made up his mind.
With his past experience in a professional team, Li Xuan naturally guessed that there might be a "transaction" behind this. Especially when the situation is unclear, it is best to assume that such a situation exists.
Although there will inevitably be some unfavorable situations in public opinion, Ye Qing would rather stay out of it than be used as a gun by others.
After the meeting, everyone went back online and returned to the game.
After coming online again, Ye Qing is now in the inn.
She stood up, opened the window of the room, looked out, and naturally noticed the soldier standing downstairs.
These guards in plain sight naturally won't have too much to hide, and they must be visible to the players so as to attract most of the attention.
"Since there are still people upstairs, there should be people on this street as well. I just don't know what the situation is with the people who ran away."
Ye Qing's eyes swept across the street in front of him. The silence made him feel a little creepy.
In the game, the midday sun is shining on the earth, but it can hardly bring any warmth to people.
Just when Ye Qing wanted to try to test the bottom line of these defenses, two rays of light appeared beside him.
Zhao Xin and Zhao Manying also came online and brought first-hand information.
"Sister Ye Qing, there is news about the person who went out!"
Zhao Xin was obviously a little excited. He quickly retrieved the video posted on the forum and shared the link directly to the team channel.
After opening the video, even Ye Qing's eyes widened.
What came into view was a scene that could be described as purgatory. In that bungalow, there were several corpses in meditation postures.
The heads of these corpses have all been chopped off, and the blood has long dried under the bodies. Looking in the direction of the blood, you will notice that there is a talisman painted with blood on the door of the bungalow.
"Since leaving the inn, I have been trapped in this room..."
A trembling voice was heard from the other end of the video, and it was obvious that the player filming the video was trying hard to suppress his fear.
He also changed his perspective and saw similar talismans painted on the surrounding windows, and strange statues were placed on the eight-immortal table in the center.
Chapter 85 Prison Break
The video also stopped abruptly at this moment, and the strange statue remained in everyone's sight.
The paint-chipped Buddha statue had both hands cut off at the root, and a smile smeared with blood appeared on its originally serious face.
Such an expression on a Buddha statue would only make people feel extremely creepy.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ye Qing immediately frowned.
Although he couldn't tell what was wrong for the time being, Ye Qing instinctively felt quite disgusted by it, not to mention the situation inside the house.
"That's basically the video. I don't know why it stops here."
Zhao Xin did not forget to add something after watching the video, and now this video is the most widely circulated.
Moreover, this video is not just an excerpt. The original post is still pinned on the forum. This video has not been modified or added in any way. This is the most confusing part.
Why did the person who shot the video suddenly stop filming, and it doesn't look like there was any official obstruction.
If it was really cut off by the authorities, then there is no reason to release this video for everyone to see.
"That's strange... Can you deduce the approximate location?"
Ye Qing also had a lot of doubts in his mind at the moment, and he had to confirm all of them one by one before he could come to a conclusion.
"No, although I guess all the clubs and guilds are trying to confirm it now, it's too difficult."
Zhao Manying shook her head. This video had already received a lot of attention when it came out, and relevant analysis was carried out on it.
Since there are few players who can rush out, or even no players at all, the images of the streets can only be roughly guessed.
But as long as you take a quick glance at the surrounding environment, you can see that the complexity of the streets here is almost as complicated as the old city area of Yanxia Imperial Capital, and you never know where you will get dizzy.
It is really too difficult to analyze simply based on the features in the video.
Ye Qing paced back and forth in the room with a heavy face. She opened the video again, slowed it down and carefully checked everything in it.
A headless corpse sitting cross-legged on the bloodstains, surrounded by talismans painted with bloodstains, and these talismans were only on the windows and door...
All signs indicate that this was a strange ceremony, and a so-called cult ceremony at that.
Something is wrong, so wrong.
In her memory, the task corresponding to such a serious situation should not be a small task.
But among the important tasks that could be listed or left a deep impression, Ye Qing could not find any impression.
So Ye Qing simply sat back at the table, closed her eyes and began to search through her memories.
"Sister Ye Qing, this is..."
"Shh! Don't disturb her..."
Ye Qing tried hard to recall the missions in this port city. Among the countless extremely important main lines, she finally found an unnamed branch line that had some connection.
If this is true, then it is a big problem!
"No, we have to take the initiative."
Ye Qing stood up suddenly and spoke so suddenly that Zhao Xin who was standing next to him was startled.
She quickly walked to the side and closed the window. She also walked to the door, opened it and looked left and right, then closed the door again.
"Take the initiative? Why? And take the initiative to go out now given the situation outside..."
Zhao Manying didn't quite understand for a moment. Ye Qing, who was still thinking just now, suddenly had an idea, and it didn't seem like he was talking nonsense.
But having said that, Zhao Manying had already started making preparations, and all kinds of special props that could be used for escape were placed on the table.
