Hilaris.

It was already early in the morning, and the bustling city that never sleeps became quiet. Although there were still people walking on the street and some shops that were not closed, there was no longer the hustle and bustle of the day.

Players hide in all kinds of streets and alleys, watching the time and staring at their goals, and they can make fun of the world when they are bored.

Bear Biscuits, I really have no money, you and I under the lemon tree are freshmen of the history department this year, and members of Shangshan Ruoshui. They happen to be in the same major, and they belong to the same class or the same guild. Play with.

The person who first discovered the hidden mission was that I really had no money. After he confirmed the mission, he immediately notified his two good friends and asked them to come too. Fortunately, the three people were assigned to the same place.

At this time, the three of them were gathered together to stare at their target.

This is an unremarkable independent cottage, in the most common Dolly Union style, mixed with the surrounding buildings, and there is nothing outstanding.

I'm really out of money. Typing in the three-person contact group: It doesn't look like anything, it doesn't look like there's something dangerous hiding in it.

Bear Biscuits: According to my experience, the more ordinary this kind of place looks, the more problematic it is in it.

You and me under the lemon tree: +1, I thought so too.

I'm really out of money: it's three o'clock, and we have class tomorrow, so we just spend the night in the game?

Bear Biscuits: The game cabin has a fatigue recovery function, and the liver will not affect the body overnight.

You and me under the lemon tree: Liver is not affected for a month.

I'm really out of money: with that said, the distraction is still there, and it takes a while to recover.

Bear Biscuits: Anyway, tomorrow is an online class, and the professor doesn't ask us to go to the classroom in person. It's good to take a break and watch the replay.

I'm really out of money: you are not afraid of failing the class, the chief said that those who fail the class will be kicked out of the guild.

You and me under the lemon tree: Then you are offline.

Bear Biscuits: Then you are offline.

I'm really out of money: I don't, this is the first hidden mission in my life.

This kind of scene is staged in almost all kinds of places, and players are chatting and waiting until the time comes. Others hurriedly ran on the way to pick up the task. Seeing that the time was getting shorter and shorter, their footsteps were getting faster and faster. They hid the task, and if they missed it, they would regret it for a whole year! ! ! !

Time passed little by little, and Hilaris became quieter and quieter.

Finally, at three in the morning, it arrived.

All the players who were waiting in the dark rushed towards their goals in unison, using various methods to sneak into the room quietly. Facing the seemingly normal room, the players were a little bit troubled.

"You said, what should we move first?"

"Bookcase, this one must not be overlooked. Generally speaking, there are problems here. Either there is a secret hidden in a certain book, or there is a secret room behind the bookcase."

"It makes sense, I'm going."

"Damn it! There really is a secret room behind the bookcase, but the door is so tight that I can't open it..."

"You step back and watch my invincible wall penetration technique!!!"

"Damn, can you slow down a little bit and almost solved it with me!!!"

"If you don't die, hurry up and put things together! If you grind again, maybe the city guards will come!!"

"Be quiet, you two, the dead pig will be woken up!!"

In another unremarkable house.

"Look at this table, there's a mechanism on it! It's also engraved with incomprehensible cipher text. There must be a problem. What if it can't be opened?"

"Just take off the table top?"

"No, it's too strong, and I don't know what's reinforced in it."

"Then move away with the table and let the NPC take it down!"

A seaside chalet that looks peaceful and quiet.

"Why can't you see anything of value in this room?"

"The tables and cabinets are all fishing gear, nothing suspicious, and such a small house can't even hide a person."

"Are we wrong?"

"Impossible, we didn't go wrong with the guidance given by the npc..."

"I'm going to tear down the floor! I can't believe I can't find anything!"

"Then I'll tear down the roof!"

"Don't let other things go, maybe it's just pretending to be normal!"

Xiao Zhi found a place where no one was squatting, and observed the movements of the players with the help of the address book. So far, it seems that the players' actions are going smoothly, and they have not encountered obstacles for the time being.

While slightly relieved, Xiao Zhi thought of another thing.

He found a piece of white paper, copied the magic circle he had seen behind Asen by hand-painting, and then sent a screenshot of the hand-painted drawing to Li Daye.

Although the teacher is an unreliable but very trustworthy person, Xiao Zhi still didn't want to send him the naked back picture of Asen. He always felt that there was a hurdle in his heart that was trying to stop him, shouting "This screenshot is only I can see!!".

Seventeen: Teacher, do you know what magic circle this is?

Hillholmes van Surina Galarentia: Huh? Let me see……

After a while.

Hillholmes van Surina Galarentia: This has a very traditional Brace style, but I have seen that the Brace circles circulating in the outside world do not have such a complex structure.

Hillholmes Van Surina Galalentia: [Picture], you see this structure is used to limit strength, and this [picture] is used to stabilize the formation. I speculate that this formation probably has nothing to do with blessing or healing. It may be used to seal some evil spirits, or to imprison and torture them. The specifics are not yet clear, and it may be interpreted only by contacting the top brass.

Xiao Zhi couldn't help frowning, it was Blaise again.

Why did Braith's formation appear so rudely behind Assen, and what did they do to him? And Brees's long-standing hostility to Hesse, and why?

Hillholmes Van Surina Galarentia: Where did you see this, little apprentice?

Xiao Zhi was stunned for a moment, and was a little confused about how to answer.

The empathetic middle-aged and second-year-old seemed to notice something.

Hillholmes Van Surina Galalentia: Forget it, I won't ask, as the destined life mentor of the young people chosen by fate, I won't ask any more.

Xiao Zhi couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, the teacher is really a likable old man.

Hillholmes van Surina Galarentia: That's it, let me know if there's any new inspiration on my side. Goodbye.

Seventeen: Thank you teacher, goodbye.

Xiao Zhi also greeted Wei Di by the way, and got a normal reply from Wei Di, which made him feel at ease.

The uncle came to play and sneaked into a big mansion with his teammates.

The appearance of this big mansion is quite gorgeous, but it is said that no one usually comes in and out, but occasionally lights come on in the middle of the night, and it has the name of a haunted house nearby, so that the surrounding residents dare not approach.

However, this kind of name is not a problem for the Asanasi people who aim to die in life.

The uncle came to play and took the lead in turning into the courtyard wall of the mansion from an inconspicuous corner.

The courtyard was barren, with dead branches and regenerated weeds on the ground. Occasionally, mice and insects could be seen crawling through it. There were also a lot of withered vines crawling on the gorgeous outer wall of the mansion, making it even more ghostly.

Several people exchanged glances and quietly entered the room.

The interior is also the same as the outside, dust accumulates, and many dead leaves are blown into the room with the wind and rain, sticking to the walls and the ground, forming a thick layer of stains.

Several people lowered their voices to discuss.

"There seems to be no one here."

"With such a thick stain on the ground, if someone walks by, it will definitely leave traces. You can see that there is nothing here."

"But the mission dictates that there must be something hidden here."

"You said... Is it possible that the above is just a cover up, and the real secret is hidden underground? In such a big house, there must be a basement below."

"Wise, girl."

"I am over-flattered."

Several people speculated about the location of the basement and walked down. This time, they found different traces.

"It seems to be a little too clean here. Judging from the look above, mold should have grown there long ago."

"It sure is a problem."

"Be careful, there may be someone hiding inside, and this time may be their working hours."

"What a miserable night shift social animal."

While talking, the few people carefully inspected the basement. There are many rooms here. The uncle came to play and mastered the skill of unlocking, and led his teammates to search one by one.

The rooms along the road were normal, and there was nothing weird to see, as if they had been abandoned for a long time, until they entered a room in the corner.

The door of this room is different from the others. The uncle came to play and tried several times but failed to open it, and the light of the magic circle flashed on it. Feeling that there are ten ** here, a few people summed it up and decided to directly destroy the door with violence.

The interior is really different. The area inside is not large, but there are many dark cabinets placed there. don’t know what is hidden in it. There is also a small teleportation array in the corner. It turned out to be directly into the room through teleportation.

There is also a large table in the middle, and there is no dust on it, apparently it is often used.

"It must be here!"

"Quick, put all these boxes away!"

A few people were excitedly putting it away, when suddenly there was a slight rustling sound on the desktop. The uncle came to play and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that the pen on the desktop stood up by itself, on the white paper. what is written.

Players are not unfamiliar with this. This is the effect of magic items. It can be used as a telegraph to some extent. However, there are distance restrictions and you have to prepare paper yourself, which is not too convenient.

Now this situation shows that they have a new harvest! !

Several people couldn't help but get excited and waited for the content to be written. Although they couldn't understand the secret text on it, the content of the task was to take away the evidence, not for them to interpret it. It didn't matter whether they could understand it or not.

Just when they were concentrating, there were slight footsteps in the room, and then a icy wind passed behind them, with a suffocating coldness.

In an instant, the two people in the team fell directly.

Everyone turned back in horror, only to see a man in a gorgeous uniform holding a sword and looking at them with cold eyes, there was no emotion in those eyes, only a strong killing intent.

Then, the man charged towards a few people with his sword in hand. His movements were neat and tidy, obviously a skill he had cultivated in killing all the year round. The uncle is here to play.

Uncle came to play, was shocked, and subconsciously covered the paper and pen on the table with back.

"Do you know who I am—" He tried to delay by saying some trash talk, but found that the other party didn't mean to talk nonsense with him at all, and stabbed him in the chest with a quick and accurate sword.

At the last moment before his death, the uncle came to play and was still in the mood to think. This swordsman's level is so high and his swordsmanship is so good, he was instantly beaten.

The man is called Dalaster, and although he is a human race, he is one of Warren's confidants. There is a lot of news coming from Archduke Warren’s subordinates every day. Naturally, it is impossible for the Archduke to read all of them, so he has to screen the news he receives every day. If it is not important, there is no need to disturb the Archduke. .

This is one of the strongholds dedicated to handling news. The magic circle on the gate has the function of warning. Once it is destroyed, it will sound an alarm secretly. After he received the prompt, he rushed over quickly.

After dealing with the intruder, Daliaster's brows furrowed instead.

The corpses of the interlopers vanished, the corpses of only one race on the continent - the Athanasi.

But why did the Athanasi people suddenly break into this place? Because the logic of the Asanaxi people's behavior is too strange, and they are always on the front line of death, it is difficult for Daliaster to judge what they are here for.

Are they doing some weird haunted house adventure? Or are they trying to steal something? Or want to find some treasure?

Daliaster looked around, and suddenly his pupils tightened.

The file box is gone!

Although the information that was only screened out did not require the Grand Duke to personally see the information, it could be regarded as a secret, and now all of them are gone.

He took a few steps forward and went to check the table that was surrounded by the group of Asanassi before. There was originally a piece of paper and a magic pen on the table, which was convenient for receiving sudden news at any time. Now there is nothing, not even the water cup and ink bottle, and only a bare table is left.

But the most important thing is that the paper is gone, and the group of Asanassi may have taken away the news that just came!

Feeling that something was wrong, Dalaster immediately turned around and stepped into the teleportation formation again, and he must report to His Excellency the Grand Duke immediately!

52 Nut Street is one of Teague's mansions, and the upside is that it's big and empty.

Xiao Zhi saw that No. 52 Nut Street was almost filled with all kinds of things moved by the players. He estimated that the time was almost there, and he was also going to notify Duke Sharona.

It was still dark at this time, at the darkest hour of the night.

When the contact card lit up, the seriously injured Duke Sharona was sleeping. Sartre, who was waiting by the side, looked at her quiet sleeping face, and was a little hesitant in his heart. The secretary sent a contact. There must be something very important, but the body of His Excellency the Duke...

Sartre sighed, but stood up and walked towards the bed. He knew Duke Sharona and knew exactly what the other party would choose.

Sartre woke up Duke Sharona: "Your Excellency, the contact of Mr. Registrar."

Duke Sharona slept not dead, and woke up with a little movement, she said softly, "Go on."

Xiao Zhi's slightly smiling voice came: "Sorry for disturbing your rest late at night, but I have prepared a present for you, which you will surely like very much. I put it at No. 52 Nut Street, Time is urgent, it is too late to pack properly, please forgive me."

A smile bloomed on Duke Sharona's pale face: "Mr. Secretary's movements are really fast."

"In order to show my sincerity, but this gift is a bit big, please send more people to receive it," Xiao Zhi said, and then added, "Before Archduke Warren reacts."

Duke Sharona: "Thank you for your reminder."

After finishing the communication, Duke Sharona said to Sartre: "Send someone over immediately, and take the Nancheng Guards with you to avoid accidents."

Sartre bowed and saluted: "Yes."

"By the way." Duke Sharona said firmly, "I remember that you developed a new potion that can speed up the recovery of wounds."

Sartre frowned slightly: "But the efficacy of that medicine is not stable, and there may be side effects."

Duke Sharona looked at the complex eyes of Sartre and ordinary Xiyue people, and there was no fear in his smile: "It's worth a try, let's speed up the circulation of the white magic circle, I can't wait."

"This will increase your pain and physical burden..." Sartre didn't finish his words, but stopped. He looked at Duke Sharona's eyes that were still amazingly beautiful with the traces of the years, and sighed in his heart. Helplessly said, "Yes, Your Excellency."

Sartre was about to leave the bedroom to inform the others.

At this time, Duke Sharona's voice came from behind him: "Don't worry, I can't die, just take care of my body slowly later, you won't let me have an accident, right?"

Hearing this, the worries in Sartre's heart subsided, and he put on a faint smile on his face, and said in a low voice, "Please rest assured and leave it to me."

Chaos occurred in almost all of the strongholds. Some of the movements made by the Asanaxi people woke up the people in the strongholds. Some of them were guarded by people inside, and some of them also installed teleportation arrays for warning.

Once the guards wake up, they will fight with the Athanasis, but those Athanasis are like lunatics. Even if they are killed, they will take everything they can before they die, whether it is boxes or cabinets. Or teapots, fruit baskets or even trash cans, just like a bunch of locusts.

At almost the same time, many people came to the residence of Archduke Warren to ask for an interview.

Archduke Warren got up with a gloomy face. He was not young anymore, with the ravines of the years on his face. At this moment, he had deep dark circles under his eyes and looked very haggard. After listening to the reports from his subordinates, his face turned ashen.

Asanassi! ! These lunatics! What do you want to do? ! ! !

If it is for stealing information, this kind of behavior is too fanciful, and what do you do with fruit baskets, teapots, and trash cans? It's just like fooling around. But if it's nonsense, their actions are too neat, not at all on a whim,

At the same time, he was also a little uneasy in his heart. He always felt that this group of Asanasi people didn't think it was just fun. There must be someone behind them who was controlling them.

Archduke Warren gritted his teeth and said, "Kill them... no, find out their purpose."

When the North City Guards, who were on the side of Archduke Warren, and the assassins who sneaked in, arrived at the stronghold, they saw empty houses.

After the perseverance of the Asanaxi people, the efforts of the people, and the sacrifice of their lives, the furniture in each stronghold is basically gone. When it was demolished, it was even worse than the ruins in the suburbs.

They tried to find the captives and tortured them, but found that the Athanasi people involved were either killed or wiped their necks when they saw that the situation was not good. Relying on their resurrection, they didn't even leave them alive.

unacceptable!

There were also many residents around who were awakened and opened their doors to watch the fun. They were expelled by the Beicheng Guards.

There is no way, they can only go back and return to life without harvest.

After listening to the latest news reported by his subordinates, Grand Duke Warren's face was almost as black as the tail of the Yuan clan.

It feels like the bottoms are being ripped off.

After notifying Duke Sharona, Xiao Zhi began to think about the players.

Xiao Zhi planned that since Hessen’s trade zone was open, and he was about to cooperate with the Dolly Alliance, it was just the time when manpower was needed. It would be better to just outsource these tasks to enthusiastic players as a reward, and let them work two jobs but only receive a salary.

The experience brought by this long-term stability is very objective. It is much more profitable than going to Chiba City to grow green onions for Chiba Black. Sometimes you can also receive tasks with higher difficulty and higher rewards. Presumably players They will be very happy.

Xiao Zhi felt that he was a bit like a profiteer, but it was cool to bully silly Bai Tian for a while, and it was always fun to bully him all the time.

It seems that he understands the happiness of the Xiyue clan more and more.

The sky gradually brightened, and the players also received a system prompt for the completion of the mission:

"You have completed the mission 'The Night Will End'"

"Please go to the Hessian trade area in three days to receive the 'Long Night Badge', with which you can receive follow-up missions"

While the vast amount of experience that comes with completing hidden quests is nice, this tip has left many players confused.

"Why is the pick-up location in Hesse?"

"Yeah, isn't this a hidden mission of the Dolly Alliance?"

"Didn't you notice that one of the two NPCs who gave us the mission is unclear, but the other is suspected to be a zombie?"

"what???????"

"How did you find this out??"

"My profession is a priest, so I'm a little more sensitive to death."

"Actually, I found it too, but I didn't dare to say it for fear of affecting the mission."

"Wait! Does this mean that the Dolly Alliance and Hesse are really going to form an alliance?"

"Fuck!"

"Hessian lord can actually do this for the secretary!! What kind of immortal love is this!!"

"What kind of fairy love? Why do I feel like I can't taste the taste of a melon?"

"You don't know yet, is your home disconnected from the Internet? Let me tell you, this is the latest and hottest gossip on the mainland. The Dolly Alliance has spread all over the world. It is said that the Hessian lord and the secretary..."
