Chapter 750 Interrupting the Chanting
It was obvious that the player named Qidalong was in the same group as them. He had staged this drama just to try to trigger the hidden mission.
If even this does not trigger the quest, then either the native has no quest, or has a quest but requires special triggering conditions, such as carrying some special items, or having a certain bloodline, etc.
Seeing that the first step of the plan had failed, several players decisively started the next step. Attract the city guards over, and then decide how to deal with the situation.
In a sense, their choice was correct, because Fiona's identity cannot be made public at the moment.
"Let's walk a little slower and wait for the city guards to arrive. If a fight breaks out, we can take advantage of the chaos to track them down.
If the other party's identity is not a problem and they are not afraid of being checked, then first find out what their real identity is and then decide what to do. "
While leading the way in front as if wholeheartedly, the two players were chatting with others through text on the game panel.
"We are now at South Bell Tower Street, at the entrance to the block near the White Rose Chamber of Commerce branch. Xiaotian, please report the current coordinates of the city guards."
"Received. The fourth-rank knight commander Gray has led the team to set off. They have just passed the door of the Adventurer's Guild Hall and are less than ten minutes away from the other side of South Bell Tower Street. Xiao Cao knocked a soldier unconscious with a club and has now used his equipment to disguise himself and blend into the team.
Also, be careful when you place the tracker, don't get discovered."
"Got it. I'll try to mark a daily task first."
Several players were discussing quickly, but what the two leading players didn't know was that Avis behind them was silently watching their conversation.
Avis was also familiar with the so-called marking of daily tasks, which was a special usage of the task system.
For all tasks taken on by the indigenous people, except for some special tasks, the location of the task issuer is guided by the system.
This is to avoid the situation where a player goes through great pains to complete a task, only to find that the original inhabitant who issued the task has disappeared, leaving the player with no choice but to cry.
The natives all have their own things to do, and it is impossible for them to stand in one place forever as a task NPC.
But players soon developed a new use for this mark: as a tracking and positioning spell that could not be detected.
Specifically, you first find a way to get close to the target indigenous person, and then extract a daily task from him.
At this time, as long as you do not complete the task and do not exceed the task deadline, the location of the target indigenous people will be under your real-time control during this period.
The two players are now preparing to try whether they can get a daily task from the three people first. This is more useful than any tracker.
As for how to proactively obtain an ordinary task from Avis and others, the two of them also have sufficient confidence.
In the Yongdong Mountains adjacent to Baiguang City, there is a special product - [Starlight Ice Drops]
This diamond-clear ice drop is extremely rare. It is a crystal formed by the fusion of ice elements and star power in an extremely special environment.
Direct consumption can increase the total amount of magic power and greatly improve the purity of mental power. It is one of the core materials for many fifth-level breakthrough potions.
Several players had tried this many times before. They would just pretend to have received a message suddenly, and then tell their target that their friend had accidentally discovered the new [Star Ice Drop] while exploring the mountains, and they were interested in making a move.
Usually the target will entrust them to make the purchase, or at least ask them to help inquire about the price.
At this point, the two players were ready to repeat their old tricks.
The bard player walking in front suddenly stopped, turned his head to look over his shoulder, and pointed his finger into the void, as if he was reading some information.
After a moment, he smiled and turned to look at Avis and his group.
"Your Excellencies, I..."
"unnecessary--"
But just as the bard opened his mouth, Anvis interrupted him.
“……???”
I haven't said anything yet.
The bard player opened his mouth, but couldn't catch his breath and choked.
"…Um, Your Excellency, do you know what I am going to say?"
After patting his chest a few times to catch his breath, the bard looked at Avis with a puzzled and confused look on his face.
"You're just trying to sell us something that doesn't exist, right? We won't be fooled."
Avis chuckled, as if he saw through everything.
"Well, I think..."
Seeing the bard player hit a wall, another player hurriedly spoke up, planning to change his strategy.
"No, we don't want to."
But this time too, he had just started talking when he was ruthlessly interrupted by Avis again.
"this……"
After repeatedly hitting a snag with Avis, the bard player rubbed his nose and looked at Fiona and Annie for help, hoping that they would be more talkative.
Seeing Avis's abnormal behavior, the two girls were puzzled but still shook their heads to refuse.
What's wrong with this NPC?! The two players were so embarrassed that their faces turned red. They had no choice but to turn around, with countless horses galloping through their hearts.
You are so arrogant, I will explode in a moment! Although they said harsh words in their hearts, they also knew that they might be in trouble.
If they cannot lock it through the system task panel, it will be much more difficult for them to place the tracker themselves, and they are likely to be discovered.
But they have no choice now and can only take one step at a time.
Soon, as the two were secretly waiting, a team of city guards mixed with several constructed golems finally met the group.
"Found it, it's them!"
After seeing the target, the leader raised his hand, and a team of city guards immediately surrounded them and stopped Avis and others.
"What's the matter? Why did you stop us?"
Avis's eyes swept across the city guard team calmly, and immediately found the player called "Xiaocao" who had infiltrated them.
"Excuse me, we have received a report that there are suspected mid- to high-level enemy forces infiltrating the city. This is just a routine inspection."
As he spoke, the captain of the city guard took out a token with the pattern of the White Light City embossed on it and activated it directly at the three people. A beam of light green detection waves swept over the three people at close range, but no special feedback appeared.
"……No?"
The captain of the city guard looked at the token in his hand that was still emitting a light green light in confusion, and then looked at the faces of the three people again, and found that there was no wanted record.
The token in his hand was a standard detection tool issued by the City Lord's Mansion, which had the function of detecting hidden objects and detecting target camps. Its effect relied on the core magic tower in the city and could only be used within the city, but within the effective range, even the hidden objects of the seventh level could be detected.
If the target is in disguise, the token will flash continuously. If the target is in the evil camp, the token will emit red light.
The current light green glow that is always on means that there is nothing wrong with the three of them.
It was obvious that the hidden power that Anvis had released with the help of the Old Secret Scriptures was far beyond their ability to see through.
