Chapter 283: The Red Names Are All Weird
The weekend is coming.
The MMO market has once again ushered in a wave of popularity.
The heavy promotions from major manufacturers this week finally broke out this weekend, attracting countless players to join in.
Even Xu Gu and others who were leveling up by completing tasks could feel that the number of players had obviously increased.
Especially when I went back to Stormwind City to learn skills, I was even more stunned by the bustling scene in the city. Looking around, the streets were full of players.
"Oh my goodness, there are too many people, aren't there?"
“It seems like there are a lot more people of other races.”
Xu, Gu and others walked slowly into the city, looking at the people coming and going around them in surprise.
As the first batch of high-level players to enter the game, they were wearing full sets of equipment and immediately became the focus of attention of the newbies.
"Look! There's a big guy!"
“What a cool piece of equipment!”
"I heard that the equipment in this game is difficult to get."
"Is that something you got from a high-level dungeon?"
"The dungeon is harder than the wild monsters. Many teams were wiped out."
"Boss, please take me!"
Looking at the messages that kept popping up around him, Xu Gu's vanity was greatly satisfied, and even his walking was like the wind.
Even though they were only level 30 now, they were considered big shots compared to the novices who had experienced the dangers of the wild.
but.
They did not stay long.
After learning the skills and completing the tasks, I came to the outside of the city again.
"We are already level 30 now. Why don't we go somewhere else to level up?" Xu Gu suggested as he opened the map of the Eastern Kingdoms.
"That's fine. The experience in the wetlands is getting lower anyway."
"How about going to Stranglethorn Vale? It's marked with levels 30-45."
"Stranglethorn Vale?" Xu Gu lowered his gaze to the southernmost area of the Eastern Kingdom continent. "It looks a bit far, and there are no flight points."
"What are you afraid of? Just run over there. It's a good opportunity to open a flight point. Maybe it can be used in the future."
"That's right. I've been leveling up in the wetlands. It's time to go somewhere else."
In a whole week, they had only explored less than one- fifth .
The vastness of this game world is beyond their imagination.
And what surprised them even more was.
There are no air walls or loading bars between the maps of this game, and it adopts a seamless map mode.
The entire Eastern Kingdom continent is connected as one, so even if you run from the southernmost tip to the northernmost tip, it will be no problem, it just takes a lot of time.
According to their estimation of the scale of this map, it would probably take several hours to complete the entire journey. They could only get there faster by slowly exploring and unlocking the griffin flight point over there.
In comparison like this.
The Stranglethorn Vale, which is only separated by two map areas, doesn’t seem that far away.
"In that case, let's go over there."
After that, the team left Stormwind City through the main gate without stopping.
…
Twenty minutes later.
They finally arrived at their destination, a valley that looked like an ancient jungle.
As the southernmost coastal area in the Eastern Kingdoms, the vegetation here is indeed much denser than other areas.
The five members of the team walked inside and were immediately shocked by the lush and green scene before them.
"Is this the Stranglethorn Vale?"
"It's so strong, the leaves and textures are detailed."
"It seems that no one has come here to level up yet."
"The first echelon has only passed level 30. There will be more people in a few days."
"It's just right, no one is trying to steal the monster from us."
As they talked, several of them couldn't help but have their eyes light up, feeling the pleasure of grabbing resources before others.
I briefly tested the monster strength on the periphery and found no problem.
The five members of the team immediately moved inwards and began to explore the Stranglethorn Vale.
Along the way.
They crossed the jungle, crossed the suspension bridge, and cleared the ruins.
Because of my experience in dungeons, I was able to complete several tasks along the way without any major problems.
The mage with the highest experience value also upgraded from level 30 to level 31, and his output capacity was improved again.
"Look! There's a weird-looking monster over there."
Suddenly, the hunter Lao Jiang in the team shouted.
When everyone looked in the direction of the sound, they saw a hunched figure like a zombie, with a red mark on its head like the monster, but it did not fit in with the surrounding crocodile monsters.
"Could it be an elite monster?!" Xu Gu's face lit up with joy.
The elite monsters in this game will drop a variety of exclusive green and blue equipment, and they will be attacked by a large group of players as soon as they are refreshed.
Now that no one comes to grab the equipment, can't they keep it all for themselves?
"Go! Get rid of it first!"
"The elites blame me!"
"Haha, I got some more equipment."
The rest of the people were extremely excited and rushed towards the zombie monster without any nonsense.
When the zombie monster saw them, it was obviously stunned for a moment, then turned around and ran away.
"Huh? This monster is quite smart. It can actually run away."
Xu Gu said in surprise, and quickly used the speed-up potion he had obtained by chance before, and caught up with the zombie monster.
Ice arrow!
Haven't started yet.
The wizard's Frost Arrow skill was activated. It flew past him and exploded on the zombie monster, slowing it down.
"Well done, Master!"
The remaining few people cheered excitedly and immediately surrounded the zombie monster and attacked it.
However.
Next second.
An Olympiad skill burst out from the opponent, and a series of prompts suddenly popped up in front of them.
[You are attacked by the arcane explosion of the tribal player "Little Chicken". ]
???
WTF?
Xu Gu and others were stunned for a moment.
Then he suddenly reacted.
"Shit! This isn't a monster! It's a tribal player!"
"A tribal player actually came here?"
They never expected that this "elite monster" would be a player, and that he came from the tribe.
This was their first time encountering a tribe, so they were inevitably a little surprised.
Because the names of different camps are displayed in red, which means they can attack !
"What should we do? Should we kill him?" Xu Gu was a little hesitant.
"Go for it! Why not? You've already been marked as a red name, and you're in the enemy camp."
"The red names are all weird, fuck them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the attack broke out again, pouring towards the opponent.
The tribal player was no match for four hands with his two fists, and his health was emptied in an instant.
Before falling to the ground, he sent out a series of messages, which sounded like he was cursing someone.
However, due to the different races of the camps, the characters of the two sides are not mutually intelligible and become a string of garbled symbols.
[“Newbie” dies, honorably eliminated. Rank: Soldier (Contribution Points: 4)]
"Huh? Killing tribal players is also honorable?"
Xu Gu's face lit up with joy.
He remembered the in-field PVP gameplay that was opened after level 10, where equipment and items could be exchanged for honor points.
Doesn't that mean.
As long as he kills enough tribesmen and gets promoted to a higher rank, he can buy those high-end equipment?
"His body is still here. He should be resurrected soon."
"How about... we stay here and gain some honor?"
Lao Jiang was eager to try, his eyes fixed on the corpses of the tribesmen.
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the others also brightened up and they immediately squatted and waited on the spot.
As expected.
In just two minutes, the tribal player was resurrected in a flash of light and appeared at the place where he had just died.
But before he could escape, a massive attack came down again, killing him instantly on the spot, leaving behind only a string of curses in orcish.
after.
He attempted resurrection two more times.
However, they were stopped by Xu Gu and others, leaving behind a few tombstones.
"Are we being too cheap?"
"Em...it does seem a bit immoral."
"Forget it then, just kill them a few times, leveling up is more important."
After all, there is no deep hatred between the two sides.
After killing the opponent several times and becoming familiar with the outdoor PK gameplay, he gave up the idea of continuing to wait and went to continue leveling somewhere else.
The tribal player also took this opportunity to resurrect and escape from the jungle, heading straight for the southern coast.
that's all.
The five members of the team leveled up while advancing.
Soon we arrived at a building called [Gurubashi Arena].
[You have entered the PVP area, please be careful. ]
Wild PVP area!
Seeing the prompt, Xu Gu's expression changed.
He remembered that someone had said in the chat channel before that in places marked as PVP areas, except for people in the team, anyone who enters will immediately become hostile.
It’s the same even if they are in the same camp!
"Why is there a PVP area in a place like this?"
Out of curiosity, several people walked in, while being careful about their surroundings.
But soon, their eyes suddenly widened and stared at the center of the amphitheater with expressions of ecstasy.
“Treasure chest!”
“There’s a treasure chest here!”
That's right.
It's the treasure chest!
It was placed ostentatiously in the arena, without any obstruction and without any monsters.
There was no time to sit still, so he quickly jumped into the circular sand area of the arena and ran straight to the treasure chest.
【Arena Treasure Box】
Open!
Xu Gu right-clicked and directly chose to open the treasure chest.
After a long reading time, the treasure chest opened with a click, bursting with dazzling golden light.
A list of items pops up.
[87 silver coins and 51 copper coins]
[Arena Master Ornament (Green)]
[Healing Angel Belt (Green)]
【Arena Arm Guard (Blue)】
"Oh my gosh! Blue equipment! And two green ones!"
Xu Gu cursed out loud, causing several of his waiting teammates to tremble in their hearts.
"One blue and two green? Are you sure??"
"Isn't this treasure chest too fat?"
"Quick! Send me a screenshot of the equipment!"
You have to know that they have cleared so many dungeons and completed so many tasks, but they only have one or two pieces of blue equipment on them.
They were all shocked to find that they could get an item just by opening a treasure chest.
Especially after seeing the screenshots of equipment sent by Xu Gu, he became even more excited and exclaimed that he had become rich.
really.
There are advantages to opening up a new map ahead of other players.
The setting up of such a treasure chest in this arena is obviously intended to provoke fighting between players.
When there are more people here in the future, it won't be so easy to grab the treasure chest, and no one will watch you finish reading the bar.
"I don't know if the treasure chest will refresh again. How about we just level up next to it while there's no one around?"
“I agree!”
Having made up their minds, the five members of the team turned around and left, preparing to find a suitable leveling location nearby.
But at this moment.
Something unexpected happened!
"Bang!"
With a dull thud, the pastor's roommate was knocked unconscious on the spot.
The surroundings were originally empty, but suddenly there was a trance, and four undead thieves appeared and controlled them instantly.
Even the remaining Paladin Xu Gu was hit by an ice arrow that flew past the field and his speed slowed down.
A familiar figure hurried in from outside.
It turned out to be the tribal mage who had been killed by them several times before!
"Oh my god! It's someone from the tribe. That guy went back and called the tribe members to help!"
Xu Gu and others reacted immediately, breaking free from control and fighting back.
However
The other party was obviously well prepared.
The ones called in were the thieves who were best at PK. With their powerful burst output, they could quickly take out the most fragile priests and hunters.
Although the mage used the blink skill to teleport away from the encirclement, he was still caught up by the two thieves and died on the spot.
The remaining thick-skinned Xu Gu and another soldier were no match for the four hands with their two fists, and eventually fell in the fight.
"I was careless. That bastard actually went to ask for help." The hunter Lao Jiang cursed and died in a very aggrieved way.
"To be able to call so many tribes together at once, is there a way to get to Kalimdor nearby?"
"I think they should be right. This place is so close to the coast. I suspect they came here by boat."
When they were in Stormwind Port before, they had taken a ship to other places.
If the means of transportation connecting the two continents were here, it would probably be very lively in the future.
in other words.
This Stranglethorn Vale.
This will be the place where the two camps first collide.
If it were occupied by the other side, their alliance would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage.
"We have to inform others quickly!"
After Xu Gu finished speaking, he quickly opened the guild interface and announced the news.
Suddenly, the guild chat exploded.
The news spread throughout the entire alliance camp at a sweeping rate.
