According to the laws of the Undercity, both parties who fight for no reason in the city will be arrested and imprisoned.
But Mu You is not afraid. The favor mission last week was not in vain. He has long been familiar with these dark elf patrol members.
What's more, he had previously accepted a secret mission from the Dark Elf Queen to support the werewolf or vampire side and defeat the other side, and this was now part of the mission.
In short, he is now 'making trouble according to orders', and these dark elves will not make things difficult for him.
[You explained to the patrol the whole story of what just happened: You were just passing by here and saw a group of werewolves chasing an innocent vampire girl. Seeing injustice on the road, you came to help. 】
[In response, the werewolves cried out that they were just passing by and had no intention of attacking anyone. As a result, they were suddenly beaten inhumanely by a group of elves! 】
[The dark elf sentry captain, faced with the completely different statements from both of you, did not rush to believe either side. Instead, he looked at the werewolf expressionlessly and asked: "Why are you chasing this vampire girl?"]
["No, no pursuit, just passing by, passing by..." The werewolves hesitated. 】
["They lied!" Mai suddenly stood up and pointed at several werewolves with confidence: "They have a total of twelve werewolves. They started chasing me from the magic gift shop in the city and have been chasing me here. They want to Rob the treasures from me. The owner of the gift shop can testify to this. It was these kind-hearted people passing by who saved me!"]
["You guys are obviously in the same group!" A werewolf pointed at Mai angrily. 】
["Yes, they ambushed here on purpose! This is a trap for us!" Other werewolves also shouted at the sentry. 】
["For a trap to be considered a trap, you have to take the initiative to jump in." The sentry captain looked at the werewolf and asked the last question: "Who made the move first?"]
["Their first move!" All the elves and Mai pointed at the werewolf in unison. The werewolves, on the other hand, reacted a little slower because of their guilty conscience. By the time they came back to their senses and prepared to retort, the patrol members had already made up their mind about the matter. 】
["Twelve werewolves, who violated the laws of the Undercity and openly attacked ordinary residents within the city limits, will be thrown into prison and receive a one-month sentence. Except for the seven of you, the remaining five werewolves who are at large will be sent to prison. Issue a wanted warrant and temporarily deprive the residents of the Undercity of their identity, and they can only be reinstated after serving the due sentence."]
["Take away!" the patrol captain gave the order, and several werewolves were tied up by the elves unwillingly and escorted to the direction of the prison. 】
[After the patrol left, some other elves present looked at Mai. 】
[And Mai subconsciously covered the map fragment hidden in her chest, her eyes became wary again, and after whispering a thank you, she quickly left the scene...]
…
At the same time, Earth, a country in South America.
"Bang!"
In the magnificent building, a young man slammed the glass in his hand to the ground and blurted out the local quintessence of Chinese culture.
"how?"
On the sofa in front of the hall, a bald black man with a body as tall as a black bear and a face covered with tattoos looked over with a frown.
He is the president of Bloody Dawn—the tyrant!
The four people sitting at the round table in front of him were his four capable men, the veterans who founded the Bloody Dawn organization with him.
"It's been tricked. This is a trap set by Captain Ghost!" the young man said angrily. His game character was Leng Ye who had just been forcibly killed by Captain Ghost.
"Are you referring to the vampire count? Is he the ghost captain himself or an NPC?" the tyrant asked with a frown.
"It's not sure yet, because the vampire count didn't show up at all, and the person holding the fragment was a female vampire aboriginal. However, even if that person is not the ghost captain, he must have already reached an agreement with the ghost captain. What happened today is They planned it in advance just to lure us into taking the bait!" Leng Ye said.
"Ah..." At this time, a mixed-race woman on the other side also exclaimed.
"What's wrong?" Others looked at him one after another.
"The fragments were exploded... Moreover, all the werewolves who participated in the operation were arrested by the patrol and imprisoned. It seems that Leng Ye and I are also wanted by the Undercity..." The woman said with an embarrassed look.
This move of theirs can be said to have cost them both their wives and their troops.
"What number of fragments did you bring?" the tyrant asked immediately.
"No. 3..."
"That's okay..." The tyrant breathed a sigh of relief.
Number 3 is not a very important fragment, and it conflicts with the fragment route currently controlled by the opponent. Even if it is obtained by the opponent, it will not be of much use.
Then the tyrant leaned on the sofa and began to think.
"To be able to characterize this matter so quickly, a wanted order has been issued. It seems that the other party is well prepared... You two, please don't enter the Undercity for the next few days to avoid being caught by him again. handle."
Next is the critical period for the battle for Eternal Night City, which is the time to hire people. Now the two of them are equivalent to being included in the dark elves' blacklist. As long as the other party finds an opportunity in the future, they don't need to do it themselves. They only need to guide them to the dark elves, and someone will naturally help arrest them.
Once they are taken to jail, they will be unable to move in the game for the next month.
"Yes." Leng Ye and Angelia nodded.
If it were before, they wouldn't care about such a trivial matter. They had an absolute advantage in the Undercity. No matter who their competitors were, they didn't care.
Unexpectedly, it was Captain Ghost who came...
When the previous few people heard the news that Captain Ghost was going to compete with them for Eternal Night City for the first time, their hands trembled instinctively, and they all had an unpleasant feeling.
There is no way, this one is too heavyweight, and no one has even figured out what level of strength he has yet.
And the result proved that their hunch was correct. As soon as the ghost captain showed up, he gave them such an unexpected gift, taking away a fragment without any effort, and also defeated their army with a backhand!
"Captain Ghost...why is it him?" At the end of the round table, a young man with a slightly youthful appearance was holding his scalp and making a distressed gesture.
"Why are you so scared, Xiao Wu?" Leng Ye sneered across from him.
"It's not that I'm afraid, it's just... I feel as if a duck with a seed in its mouth is suddenly about to fly away..." The young man continued to scratch his head in distress.
"Crow's Mouth!" Leng Ye scolded with a smile: "What are you afraid of? A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. No matter how strong he is, he is still an outsider. How can he compare with the basic base we have built here over the past two years?"
The last person on the table was a blond white man wearing sunglasses, and he was also the only pure European at the scene. Unlike the other four people who had a fierce and surly temperament, the white young man had a handsome appearance and a quite elegant temperament.
The man in sunglasses lit a lady's cigarette in his hand, looked at Leng Ye and said, "Did you just say that Captain Ghost appeared with a group of forest elves?"
"Yes." Leng Ye was stunned and nodded.
"Is it possible that he has united with the forest elves..." the blond man said to himself.
Others frowned when they heard this. Judging from the current situation, the other party has obviously united with the vampire clan. If they add the help of the elves...
Several people didn't dare to think about it anymore.
"You can rest assured of that."
At this time, the tyrant spoke: "The elves are a race based on the 'neutral' label. They cannot directly participate in the power struggle within the Fool. What happened this time is just because we took the opponent's way and took the initiative first." , I have to admit defeat.”
"As long as the other party stays in the Undercity, they must abide by the rules here. If they dare to knock on the door directly, they will be the passive ones."
The tyrant muttered: "Now we have five fragments left in our hands. As expected, the remaining four should be in the opponent's hands. As for the route, we have collected all the pieces in the 'one, two, three, six, five' route." Of the four cards, only the 'five' card is missing, and the opponent's route only has three '945' cards. The advantage is still on our side. Next, we just need to keep it carefully and don't let the opponent take away any more cards. Just one fragment can maintain our advantage."
"The real problem now is that we know so little about all aspects of Captain Ghost that we cannot predict his next actions." The Tyrant concluded.
Several people fell silent after hearing this.
At this time, the young man seemed to remember something, and suddenly looked at the man in sunglasses and said: "Huh? Second brother, aren't you and the Emperor old classmates? The Emperor once had a head-on confrontation with the Ghost Captain. Can I ask him about the Ghost Captain's information? Do you know?"
Hearing this, the other three people also looked at the man in sunglasses.
The man in sunglasses blew out the smoke, hesitated, and nodded: "I'll give it a try."
As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone, pressed it quickly with two fingers, and sent a bombardment of emojis to the emperor.
The emperor's reply was quite concise, with only one "?" '.
"Ask me something."
"What."
"Information about Captain Ghost..."
"???" The emperor opposite, who was immersed in documents, finally looked at it seriously. After thinking for a moment, he guessed what he was saying: "Could you guys..."
"That's right, it's exactly what you thought, we met..."
"..."
The emperor seemed to be at a loss for words. He sent a row of ellipses, and after a few seconds, he sent another row of 'hahaha' laughing emoticons.
"What do you mean?" The man in sunglasses had black lines all over his head.
"Don't get me wrong, I wanted to offer you a moment of silence, but my hands were shaking." After the emperor finished speaking, he added a moment of silence.
"Is this person really that powerful?" The man in sunglasses was a little surprised. He knew the emperor very well, so he knew that the row of 'hahaha' just now was not a joke, but that he really made a mistake with his hand.
Just mentioning a name made the emperor so shaken... The man in sunglasses had already vaguely guessed the result of this consultation.
"I can only say that it is far stronger than you imagine!" the emperor replied.
"Okay... then give me some information about the other party. I'll buy it." The man in sunglasses added.
"No, I don't want to get involved in this matter. Likewise, I will not provide your information to the other party. You two are fighting, and I am neutral." The emperor said.
"Coward!" The man in sunglasses decisively gave his old classmate the middle finger.
"Then for the sake of our friendship as classmates over the years, can you give me some advice?"
"That's fine."
"So the suggestion is?"
"Give up as soon as possible." The emperor said.
"Damn, you mean we will definitely lose?" The man in sunglasses frowned. The emperor should have known their advantages in the Undercity, but he still gave such a definite answer...
"Yes. Of course, I can also understand that you will not be convinced if you say this now, just like me before, so I will give you some more practical suggestions."
"What?"
"From now on, try to reduce investment as much as possible." The emperor said.
"Emmm, aren't you still trying to persuade us to give up?" The man in sunglasses twitched at the corner of his eye.
"It's different. I just want to minimize your losses. You are different from me at that time. Although I invested a lot at that time, it was the first city after all. After that, all the initial investment was used in another city. , but it’s different now, this is already the last city, there is no chance of recovering your investment, as long as it fails, it will be in vain!” said the emperor.
"Oh, I understand..." the man in sunglasses sighed. He was already sure that he would not be able to ask anything from the Emperor.
"I wish you good luck." the emperor replied.
"hope so……"
After replying the last sentence, the man in sunglasses raised his head and saw four people looking at him, waiting for his result.
"How about it?"
"It's nothing. The other party didn't want to offend Captain Ghost and refused to say anything." The man in sunglasses shook his head and said casually. As for the emperor's suggestion... he felt it was better not to mention it, as it would hurt the military's morale.
…
[You have collected ten Moon Wolf skin fragments. Do you want to synthesize Moon Wolf skin? 】
[You have obtained the Moon Wolf skin. 】
[Moon Wolf: A type of werewolf whose strength and combat effectiveness change with the waxing and waning of the moon. It is weakest during the new moon and strongest during the full moon. Talent: Moon Phase. Ability: Transformation. 】
[Because the synthesized fragments contain special toxins, your Moon Wolf skin has also gained a temporary 'toxic enhanced state'. Your scratches and bites on vampires will not be recoverable, and the opponent will lose the ability to resurrect. Expiration time remaining: 74 hours. Re-injection of the original toxin can extend the expiration time. 】
The newly activated werewolf skin comes with the toxin that can defeat vampires, but it is only effective for more than three days and will become ineffective after that.
In other words, this toxin needs to be continuously produced to keep the werewolf group in a toxin-enhanced state for a long time. Once the source of the toxin is cut off, they will quickly return to normal werewolves.
Getting back to the topic, I got a new skin, but Mu You was a little idle.
As expected, the fishing strategy could only be used once. After being exposed, the opponent now hid the other fragments of Eternal Night City tightly, determined not to let him have any chance to snatch the fragments.
And it was impossible for Mu You to directly attack the opponent's base camp. After all, the Undercity was a city with an owner. All activities here must first ensure that they abide by the rules of this city.
This directly caused the competition among the fragments in Yongye City to reach a deadlock. As long as the opponent remained firmly in the wolf's lair, he would not be able to find a breakthrough for the time being.
Of course, there's nothing the other party can do about him.
However, the opponent can rely on the advantage of having more people and constantly send out soldiers to harass him.
In the two days since snatching the fragments that night, every time Mu You and Mai visited other vampire families in the Dark City, they would always be ambushed and attacked by a group of werewolves on the road. The players are all aborigines, and they are bound to teleportation marks. They can be knocked back with one blow and will never hesitate to fight.
The other party obviously did not come with the attitude of killing him, but purely to obtain some information.
Mu You is convinced that his whereabouts are very hidden. With Mai Yi's super-sensory talent, they can guarantee to avoid all werewolves every time, but the other party can still find their location at all times. Then there is only one possibility: internal conflicts within the vampire clan. The ghost has been revealing his information to the other party!
"The inner ghost..."
Mu You was already considering whether to find out the inner ghost in the clan first and then fight for the fragments.
In addition, in reality, another sky city - the City of Darkness - came into being in the past two days, and the city owner is an epic level player from Western Russia.
Players in Western Russia are naturally celebrating this, but people in other regions don't feel much about it. After the successive births of Sky City, many ordinary people have gradually become numb, and such less-famous city lords can no longer be mentioned. arouse their interest.
As a result, there was only the last Sky City left, and everyone's attention immediately focused on the fight for the City of Eternal Night.
The discussion on the City of Eternal Night on the forum still stayed at the summons post issued by the tyrant. Many people did not know that the City of Darkness was now turbulent, and a war between the two races was brewing.
From the perspective of most ordinary people, Bloody Dawn seems to have an absolute advantage, and the ownership of the City of Eternal Night may be the smoothest among the twelve cities.
Unfortunately, only the two sides in the stalemate in the Undercity know the real situation.
And in the middle of this confrontation with Bloody Dawn, at noon that day, Mu You suddenly received a message from Lin Xue: "Look at the forum!"
"oh?"
Mu You was taken aback for a moment, then opened the forum and found that there was a post on the home page that was constantly pinned to the top. The name of the post was quite eye-catching.
"City of Eternal Night Map Fragments 5, Detailed Map"
The person who posted it later was 'anonymous'.
Mu You clicked on the post and saw that there was actually a hand-drawn map in it. According to the form of map fragments, the order of various passages in the central area of a certain Sky City was marked. It looked like that.
"really?"
"It's so fake! Who has obtained the map fragments and will reveal it to the public without any trouble?"
"If I get the map fragments, even if I don't want them, I will definitely choose to sell them. Isn't Bloody Dawn charging a high price? I think I can sell them for a good price."
"Who is so bored? Aren't you tired of painting water stickers like this?"
"It's over, it's over, it's just a fishing post..."
…
After scrolling down, the comments below are basically full of doubts.
However, Mu You turned around and looked at the hand-drawn drawing carefully, and quickly frowned.
Fragment Five is in his hand, so now only he can be sure that this map is real!
Except for Lin Xue and Xiaoya, he had not shown this map to anyone else, and Mu You would never believe it if they exposed the map.
In this case, the only possibility is...
"Is it Hongxiu?" Lin Xue also sent a message at this time.
This Fragment 5 was exploded when Hong Xiu was killed. Apart from the three of them, the only person who might have seen this picture was Hong Xiu.
However, if this picture was drawn by her, it means that Hongxiu already had at least three fragments in his hand at that time to show the pattern of the map.
They blew away one card, what about the remaining two? Still in her hands? Or is she already united with the Bloody Dawn?
While Mu You was brainstorming, little did he know that a group of people at the Bloody Dawn headquarters on the other side were more confused than him.
"What's going on? Isn't Wu in the hands of Captain Ghost? Is there a third party fighting for Eternal Night City? Or is this just a smoke bomb released by Captain Ghost?"
