I don't need to meet the nobles anymore. Hiyori will definitely be able to dig out more information, so there's no need to repeat the strategy.
"Is it Miss Mai?" Philen also understood the information at this time and walked back slowly.
"Well, their situation is similar to ours. It seems that the identity of the 'Tower Explorer' is extraordinary, just like Tang Monk. Everyone wants to get close to him."
Fei Lun didn't understand who the player 'Tang Monk' was, so he nodded slightly. "Yes, I've already found out. The number of Tower Explorers is controlled by the Alliance. On average, there is only one per kingdom. They can be individuals or teams. The selection process will take seven years, and there will be no more than 20 teams in the entire continent."
This is mentioned in the background story, but only by experiencing it yourself can you understand why everyone is crazy about this spot.
He represents honor, wealth, women and everything else. If Yuki wants, he can recruit countless younger brothers and sire hundreds of the "most beautiful girls in the village".
"So what's the price?"
"Previous attempts to explore the tower have all failed. All those who dared to enter have died. I just heard the bards here singing." Philen cleared his throat and sang in a clear voice:
[They are fearless warriors, they are symbols of truth, they are the most devout believers, they are sacrifices for the prosperity of the continent]
Sure enough.
Yuki was not surprised at all, and he understood why these people flocked to it even though they knew the reason.
Everyone has a hope for luck, that at the very least they can leave something behind for their family, which is much better than those lunatics in "Blood Disaster" who kill for the sake of killing and fight for the sake of fighting.
"How many times have you explored the tower before?"
"I don't know. Most mercenaries can't even read. Only the Alliance knows the core information. Even the nobles don't know much."
"How does this alliance allocate quotas?"
"Only those who have passed their certification can enter the tower. Each team of explorers can bring no less than one hundred subordinates. As for the reason, it's said to be the blessing of the witch god."
It's like a captain leading a group of cannon fodder, but why does this sound so familiar?
Organizing a grand ceremony? Isn't this a fucking cult?
Yuuki showed a toothache expression. If there was a time when he was closest to death, it must have been a bloody disaster.
"What other information do we have about this Tower Explorer Alliance? Where is its headquarters? Who are its members? How much control do they have over the various kingdoms?"
Philen always felt that the Sky Island City was a little stressed, as if it was very afraid of the alliance.
"It's strange. They don't have a church, no headquarters, and they never preach. Aside from the tower exploration adventure that happens every seventy years, they have no sense of existence. They just send out quotas and announce the time. Oh, they also have their own tower explorers. Maybe I'll meet them later."
Then there is no possibility of controlling the copy. It is most likely related to the witch god and belongs to a secret organization.
Yuki's expression became a little better as he looked at the strong men who were as obedient as hounds but did not dare to approach him.
From the perspective of the soul, the smell of "dust" on them is stronger, and there are differences between them.
"You accepted them?"
"Well, this is a prerequisite for gathering intelligence. They've traveled extensively and have a wealth of experience. Besides, there are monsters outside the tower, and we need manpower to clear them out."
Yuki moved his mouth. This was the difference between Philon and the seniors. He could make his own decisions, but he was not someone who was overly controlling.
"Then I'll leave it to you." Yuki didn't care about the life and death of a group of cannon fodder. He glanced at the mercenaries again and paused for a moment on the face of a man with a crew cut and heavy armor.
This person's name is Peggy. He is the strongest among the mercenaries and should have reached the extraordinary level. The smell of the dust is also the strongest.
In addition, people with extraordinary powers in the Red Earth Continent are called wizards. For example, this is a wizard holding a big sword and wearing heavy armor. His sword and armor are decorated with beautiful gems, emitting strange energy.
"Tell me, why did you go with them when you knew the mortality rate was 100%?"
"Your Excellency Li, since I was disqualified, exploring the tower is the meaning of my existence." Peggy knelt on one knee, looking ready to sacrifice her life. Gradually, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Yuuki didn't say anything, just stared at him quietly. It turned out that being stared at by a monster III player with blood on his hands was torture, so he simply knelt on his knees.
"Well, actually, you can leave before all the towers are activated. I want the treasures in the towers."
"Each Tower Explorer team can lead a support force of no more than 100 people. We are honored that you chose us."
This is the truth. The copy is obviously divided into two stages, which is also in line with human greed. As long as one is a human being, he or she will have the bad habit of taking benefits without doing anything.
Because of Tip 3, players cannot leave easily, but these people can stop at the first stage, get enough benefits and evacuate, no wonder they are willing to lick the boots.
What treasures are inside the tower?
Yuki didn't know and didn't ask, as that would have somewhat destroyed his mysterious personality. Anyway, it was not bad to collect some cannon fodder. Others had waited too long for this day and had collected a lot of intelligence.
"When will the Shura Tower open?"
"Tomorrow morning, when the bell rings, the barrier will be lifted. I have a map. We can take a shortcut around the outer monsters. I guarantee that Lord Li will be the first to enter the tower." Peggy seemed to feel her own value and patted her chest to promise:
"If you find that the Shura Tower is not suitable for you, I have prepared cattle and horses and can change the target as quickly as possible."
Well, the natives are still useful. Transportation, logistical supplies and other things have been prepared long ago. Players only need to focus on the strategy.
Yuki nodded in satisfaction, not interested in talking nonsense: "Then go get ready. Meet here early tomorrow morning. Anything else?"
Except for Peggy, several mercenaries were reluctant to leave and spoke one after another.
"Our former employer, His Excellency the Duke of Caril, would like to invite you as his guest. If you go, he is willing to provide his own guards."
"That's nothing. King Perisius II also wants to invite you. Please choose one of the many princesses. After the event is completed, a manor will become your family's fiefdom, which will benefit your descendants."
"We don't know any important people, but the girls in the north are the most beautiful. Just go and have a drink, and we will never bother you again."
Yuki noticed that Peggy had stepped back several steps, but looked nervous. He remembered this detail and looked at Philen speechlessly, his eyes seemed to be asking, "Do you think I'm not dying fast enough?"
The latter quickly looked away, having no idea these natives were so enthusiastic.
Wait a minute, this time the hint doesn't say that leaking the game will be erased, and the player can't be a member of any indigenous force.
Yuki suddenly thought of something and asked, "Aren't you afraid of being cheated?"
A group of mercenary leaders looked at each other, wondering what was wrong with this tower explorer.
"Let me be more specific. Since the Alliance controls all the quotas, and even the Kingdom only has one, where do our quotas come from?"
The mercenaries were still somewhat confused, as foolish and bewildered as if they were asked "Why do people eat?"
After a while, they said in unison.
"Of course you are the chosen tower explorer."
......
The Chosen Tower Explorer is the character played by the player, which means that the natives know the difference.
After leaving the tavern and walking with Philen on the bustling street late at night, Yuki suddenly realized that the reincarnation game was very simple and crude.
He will not infiltrate quietly like the 'Lord God' and carve the player's mark in the dungeon. He will only set a rule and tell the natives to follow it.
But it’s really lively.
Yuki smelled the aroma of various foods and saw poets and jugglers everywhere on the streets, and children who knew nothing about anything were laughing and playing, as if it were really a festival.
The town is not dark. There are elegant street lamps on both sides of the road, and the gems in the lampshades emit brilliant light.
But he noticed that there were many children on the road, but very few elderly people. Some of them looked young with gray hair, but they looked like they were about to die.
Turning his head slightly, he saw Philen eating something like fried bananas next to him. The aroma was overwhelming. The tower explorers didn't have to pay for the things they bought, and they really experienced the feeling of being the best.
"You want to eat it?" The plump girl looked at him in confusion and picked up a piece of fried banana with a long skewer.
"No, you've been eating all the time, aren't you afraid of gaining weight?"
Gain weight?
The girl puffed up her lips, transforming into a puff mushroom, and replied coldly, "For someone with an extraordinary physique, gaining weight is impossible. Please don't make such a meaningless joke."
"Don't be so serious. Do you like this?"
Philen said nothing. A beam of fire burst out from the mouth of the clown next to her, drawing warm applause. She recalled her past journeys. No town was more lively than this one.
"It's just a habit. No matter how good a dungeon is, it's not home. If we talk about fun, none of them can compare to PX5."
Good practical answer.
Yuki smiled bitterly, walked to the fountain in the center of the town and sat down, then quietly enjoyed the acrobatic performance not far away and the countless flirtatious glances cast at him.
This copy was novel and interesting to him, at least much more interesting than those bugs.
Philen sat next to her and started eating fried nuts again. She was really busy.
It was the first time that Yuki was so peaceful in the dungeon. He felt a little uncomfortable and secretly glanced at Fei Lun, but didn't know what topic to talk about.
"Last time you talked about the division of forces. Which players in the Aether Particles are beyond the monster level?"
The squirrel-like girl paused for a moment, then remembered that there was something she had forgotten to ask the man.
He knows nothing about ether particles, yet he dares to protect me.
"There are quite a few. From what I know, there are the Great Sage, the Ancient Mage, Deathwing, and the King of the Cemetery. They each have their own power."
They are all abstract names.
Yuki discovered that players in the new stage did not like to wear vests, but had many mysterious but impressive nicknames. He carefully savored these names.
"Tell me about the Monster Front."
"Well, the owner of the Monster Front is Deathwing, a giant dragon."
A dragon? Deathwing?
"Could this dragon be black and like to breathe fire?"
Philen looked at him strangely and blurted out, "How do you know?"
Holy shit, is it really Neltharion, the Deathwing? Does that mean the Aether Particles include World of Warcraft?
Yuki's expression became very ugly. This is a high-magic world. Then he saw that Philen's expression also dimmed, so he waved his hand indifferently.
"I'm not panicking. No matter how powerful it is, it won't come over and burn me to ashes right now. According to the rules of the game, the people of his hometown must also start from the extraordinary level to regain their power."
"Actually, you could give it more thought. Providing a place to stay is enough. Getting too close to me will get you in trouble."
"Then I'm at a loss, don't worry, my own troubles are bigger than yours." Yuki patted the girl's shoulder gently. He was the type of person who could easily be relieved by too many debts. He felt like Deathwing had come to his territory.
"By the way, how big is your trouble?"
"Well, the monster front will always seek revenge. If I kill one of their people, they might track me across dungeons."
"I also killed their people. It's not certain whether they will chase you or me." Yuki was relieved. He was going to be liquidated anyway, so it was always good to have an extra companion. He simply stretched out his hand.
"Besides being the same dungeon, we also have the same enemies. Let's work together to make sure that monster line doesn't dare to provoke us."
This person really knows how to comfort people.
Philen glanced at Yuki's hand and felt sweet in his heart. This was originally a deal. The other party provided a place to stay and he provided strength.
But from personal experience, from Yuki to Hiyori, no one treated her as a transaction. Everyone tried their best to make Philen feel a sense of belonging and give the wandering traveler a home.
"You're a good person, and so are Miss Mai and the others. Sometimes I feel it's too abnormal, like I'm dreaming and keeping my guard up, but no matter what, I can't find anything false or worth being deceived."
This is because they have experienced too many hard times, and once they have a good life, they become suspicious.
Yuki understood this mentality, and he didn't want to explain it.
“Do you like this team?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a delicate, soft and warm touch in his palm.
"of course."
Chapter 5: Flame Pillar? Nanami Kento? Isayama Yomi? (K)
Dang Dang Dang——
The ringing of the bells made the already restless town even more bustling. The bars were packed all night long and the various street performances never stopped.
There was regret in the eyes of the merchants who had made a fortune. This kind of event only occurs once every seventy years. It is uncommon for so many powerful wizards, princes and nobles to gather together at other times.
They are very business-savvy. Before the tower was even opened, various clinics and medical stalls had already opened.
"Compared to the previous copy, this one is very normal."
Yuki yawned. He and Philen did nothing last night but wandered around everywhere, and finally found a hotel to stay in.
Of course, there is no two days in a day, so two rooms were opened.
There were big shots everywhere in and around the town, just like brothels, inviting him whenever they saw him, which was really annoying. He also didn't see any trace of other players.
Players at this level have long been immune to things like venting desires, and are even more reluctant to come into contact with their peers too early.
"Are these the medicines you prepared?" Yuki looked at the hundreds of strong men in front of him. The cattle and horses around them were filled with various supplies.
