One cannot...at least one should not...
But looking at the pleading words in front of the screen like "Please, this is really important to me!", Heiyu reluctantly agreed, telling Sister Hun that they would try their best, as to whether they could succeed...
Gan!
Do rich people spend so much money on fun nowadays?
Kuroyu complained in his heart, but after all, he had conquered another country. Although his Sister Hun was just as good as her own, and now she had a special hobby, Kuroyu was still very confident about Sister Hun's ability to do things. .
Who is not afraid of money ability?
Winter and Qingfeng have been taken care of, not to mention the Qiandao mainland. They can do it themselves. As for Yanyu, the fox-faced witch directly appointed a collaborator guild, so they don't have to worry about it themselves.
The last remaining Guili, just as he was chatting with Sister Soul, Kuroyu had also activated his connections in the gaming circle and easily contacted the president of "Zhanyue". Both parties were from a large guild, so naturally We hit it off immediately and established a cooperative relationship.
Next...
Just wait for news from Chairman Zangetsu.
Hope everything goes well.

Taihua Mountain.
The majestic peaks tower into the clouds, and the continuous mountains are stacked on top of each other. In the early morning, the smoke and clouds are lingering like a fairyland, and at sunset, the sky is full of sunset, which is intoxicating.
Therefore, there are legends that this is the origin of the Gui Li Xian family, and it was here that the original emperor conquered all the immortals, and in the chaotic old era when demons danced, he shed tears for the Chinese mainland and slayed demons. , and finally had the present return.
And right at the foot of this mythical mountain...
"Stop! You guys, the mountainous area in front of you has been blocked by the Five Elements. Without an access permit, you are not allowed to enter!"
Officers and soldiers with green dragon patterns embroidered on their chests, holding spears and halberds, stopped a group of strangers at the pass into the mountain.
The leader of them, the stranger with the ID of "Zangetsu" on his head, was the President Zangetsu whom Kuroba approached.
Unlike Lin Dong's "White Ghost" and Qing Feng's "My Soul" before, Zang Yue took this task very seriously from the beginning. He patted his chest and promised Kuro Fe, and rushed to take it over.
In fact, this is how normal people behave.
After all, just the 100,000 experience point reward for the SS-level mission can lead the progress of others by a week. So after chatting with Kuroyu, Zangetsu immediately summoned the elites in the meeting and followed the mission prompts to the location "Taihua Mountain" Find the target material from now on——Emperor Huyan
Who would have thought that they were stopped before they could even enter the mountain.
"President, why don't we rush in? There aren't many officers and soldiers here anyway." One of the members suggested in a low voice.
But he was quickly reprimanded.
"Can you use your brain? These are the officers and soldiers of Qinglong Yamen. If we beat them, we will have a wanted order the next day. Do you still want to hang out in Guili?"
"Then...what should we do now?"
"The only thing we can do is to find out if there is another mountain pass that we can sneak in!"
After the Zangetsu Guild's group pretended to retreat, they actually started to disperse, looking for loopholes in the nearby areas. However, half an hour passed, and when Zangetsu's people gathered again, everyone was a little downcast.
In a huge mountain range, no matter how many passes there are, there will definitely be a way to get into the mountain. But the problem is, apart from the officers and soldiers at the command, the main reason why Zangyue and the others are looking sad now is that there is an "air wall" blocking them. Watching them.
The so-called "air wall" means that whenever they are about to enter the mountain and reach the edge of the limit, they will be pushed away by an invisible force, as if there is an invisible wall.
This is actually a very common phenomenon in online games. It is a crude method used by the official to restrict players' movements. If you are more conscientious, you may add a voice prompt similar to "Let's explore the area ahead later."
I thought that the size of "Godfall", a cross-generation game focusing on "virtual reality", would not have such an impact on the experience, but now it seems that there are still some flaws.
But this flaw made everyone in Zhanyue Guild feel uncomfortable.
President Zangetsu set his last hope on another member.
"Xiaodong, have you found other collection points for "Emperor Hu Rock"? "
Unfortunately the member shook his head.
"I asked other acquaintances and asked them to ask a lot of NPCs. Most of them have never heard of this kind of stone. I even asked people in the guild to spend a lot of money to buy it from people in Zhenyu Tower. As a result, the NPC in Zhenyu Tower returned the money directly, saying that this kind of stone was only recorded in ancient books and has long since disappeared. When our people asked what the record was, the other party began to pay. He hesitated, and even asked us what we need this stone for!"
"Fortunately, I reacted quickly, because I saw that our mission had an indicator to prevent intelligence leakage, so I didn't let them tell the people in Zhenyu Tower and asked them to leave quickly. As a result, President, guess what? ?”
"According to my friend later, a group of spies from the White Tiger Hall came looking for us shortly after our guild members came out of the building."
hiss...
After listening to Xiaodong's report, Canyue took a breath and frowned deeper.
It seems that there is a reason why the mission does not allow them to leak information. The people in Baihutang seem to be very sensitive to the material "Emperor Huyan", and there is also a sense of deliberately preventing anyone from looking for this kind of stone.
My people just went to Zhenyu Tower to ask, but they were almost targeted by Baihutang. It seemed that they could no longer obtain information about "Emperor Huyan" from official channels.
That's fine now. I can't get into the collection point given by the mission, and I don't know about other collection points. The way of asking for information is also poisoned.
At this moment, everyone in the Zhanyue Guild is really at a loss and feels like they are at the end of their rope.
Just when Zangetsu was about to go to Kuroba again and explain to him the difficulty of the situation here and whether he could get some support from Kuroba...
"Sorry for interrupting you all." Suddenly, a heavy voice sounded from behind the players.
Zhanyue and the others immediately turned around to follow the sound, only to see an old gentleman in casual clothes standing on a quiet path nearby, looking at them.
Although he is said to be an old gentleman, he does not look old at all. On the contrary, he has a straight back, a tall and well-proportioned figure, and sharp features.
But why is the first impression given to the players still that of an old man? Maybe it’s because of the sense of aging that only those who have reached a certain age can have on him.
The old gentleman just stood there quietly, and a calm and down-to-earth temperament came over him, like a rock.
Oh, of course.
And the most obvious, slightly old-fashioned tone of voice.
"I just heard you guys talking about Emperor Huyan... Are these friends archaeologists?"
"Uh...that's right!" President Zan Yue reacted the fastest and continued talking immediately. His first instinct was that he might have triggered some mission plot.
So he immediately asked: "Old gentleman, are you the same?"
"No, I can't be called a scientist, I can only be regarded as an enthusiast." The old gentleman shook his head.
Enthusiasts...
Cangyue was immediately a little disappointed. He also used his detection skills to explore the NPC and found that he was indeed an ordinary person, not even level ten.
But since the other party appeared here and took the initiative to talk to them, there must be clues about him.
So Canyue quickly asked:
"That's it. To be honest, sir, we are actually looking for Emperor Huyan now to use it... as a research sample. Old sir, I see that you seem to be very interested in Emperor Huyan. You also know this. Planting strange stones?”
"Well, I do know a thing or two."
This time the old gentleman nodded, and then, as if he met a junior who had the same hobbies while walking in the mountains and forests, and started an impromptu academic exchange, the old gentleman began to talk.
"When I was young and traveling, I was lucky enough to see that kind of strange rock. It had an orange-yellow appearance, half of it was exposed, and the other half was wrapped by the minerals associated with it. At that time, I was surprised by the extremely rich rock element power in the crystal. , and later, through the introduction of my fellow travelers, I found out that it was Dihu Rock.”
"It is said that Emperor Huyan was originally an ordinary stone amber. Just because they were very close to the place where the Rock King retreated, over time, they became infected with the aura of that Emperor. Subtly, they slowly absorbed it. The rough impurities in the body are removed and finally condensed into pure rock element crystals, which are much stronger than other rocks, hence the name Emperor Hu Rock."
The old man's explanation couldn't help but make his image a little higher in the hearts of everyone in Zhanyue Guild. After all, they asked so many NPCs at the beginning, but every one of them could be like this old man now. Not only did they speak eloquently, , even seen it with my own eyes!
"Then old sir, where can we find this kind of strange rock again!" Canyue couldn't help but get to the point a little anxiously.
"There should still be some remnants in the depths of Mount Taihua, but now that the emperor is about to leave seclusion, Mount Taihua has been sealed with a formation by an expert. People like you and me who are not within the Five Elements should Unable to enter, well...if you look at it this way..."
The old gentleman seemed to be lost in thought, but he quickly said: "If you are really anxious, little friends, I have thought of a place where you can try your luck."
"Old sir, please speak!"
Here it comes, this is it!
Zangetsu and the other members of Zangetsu were very excited and secretly rejoiced.
At the same time, they finally knew that it was not an air wall, but a sealing formation arranged by the Five Elements. So, could it be that the emperor was really retreating in Taihua Mountain?
Putting these aside for now, they still focused on listening to the old gentleman's next clues.
"Not far from Taihua Mountain, there is a small town called Chiyuan Town. If you ask around along the way, you should be able to find it."
"Legend has it that a Red Mandarin Immortal once appeared in that town, and the name of the town was changed accordingly. The luck I mentioned before refers to this Immortal."
"In this era where immortals are reclusive, perhaps that immortal should be the only one willing to show up in the world. As long as you find her, be patient and sincere to her, and don't worry too much, it shouldn't be difficult to find Di Huyan. .”
"As for how to find...it depends on fate, but I happen to have a portrait of Red Yuan Immortal on hand. Today, my little friend is at least destined to me, so I will go with the flow and give it to you. .”
...
...
After parting ways with the old gentleman and leaving Taihua Mountain, it didn't take long for the Zhanyue Guild and his party to successfully find Chiyuan Town.
However, when they first arrived in this town, if it weren't for the three characters "Red Yuan Town" written on the system map, they would have thought they had been deceived.
The reason is very simple. The name of this town is so nice, but the actual appearance is extremely dilapidated and even... a bit desolate?
Fortunately, there were still quite a lot of people in the town, and there was still a lively atmosphere coming and going. This sense of conflict between the lively crowds and the dilapidated buildings made Zangyue people very strange, but in short, business was more important.
They started to take the portrait given by the old gentleman and asked the villagers one by one. However, more than ten minutes later, the answers they received were all... they don't know!
Oh no, there was still a villager who said he knew him.
only...
"Kid, are you sure you have seen this person in the portrait?" Zangetsu squatted and asked the little boy in front of him who was probably only seven or eight years old.
The little boy nodded and replied in a childish voice:
"Of course! Not only have I seen her before, but I also know her! This big sister wants to play cards with us every day, but her card skills are so bad that she loses to us every time!"
"Um..." Zan Yue didn't know what to say for a moment.
Seeing that this stranger brother didn't seem to believe him, the little boy suddenly pouted a little.
"Brother, if you don't believe it, I will take you to find her now! But...brother, I have to remind you that that sister's character is as bad as her card skills! Every time she plays cards, she loses After giving it to us, she always made excuses and forced us to play another round until she could win."
"...Okay, take us to meet that sister first."
Although it sounds a bit different from the "Red Mandarin Immortal" in Can Yue's imagination, you can't believe everything a child says. Can Yue plans to go and see it first, regardless of whether it is true or false.
but...
The little boy blinked at the waning moon and did not move.
It wasn't until the waning moon took out another piece of candy that the eyes of the little boy who accepted the candy turned into crescent moons.
"Come on, big brother, come this way!"
Led by the little boy, they soon arrived at a yard in the center of the town.
However, before Cangyue even stepped into the courtyard, an impatient female voice that could be heard from outside had already been heard.
"Wait...wait! The one just now doesn't count. My hand slipped. This is not the card I want to play!"
"Sister, please give up. You only have two cards in hand. Whichever card you play, you will lose."
"Damn it! Huh, don't be complacent. I just let you play two games because you are young, but from now on I have to be serious. From now on, I will not lose once, win three games in a row, and turn the tide of the battle!"
"But big sister...we won two out of three games!"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! It's obviously the best of five games! You, don't even think about cheating!"
