Hu Die Lan
Chapter 314 Asking Him to Take Action Again?
Unsworn, Sword, and the others dared not be careless about the potential crisis facing their guild's mission. The team continued to advance, while Reflections of Time had already brought in two rogues, asking them to stealth and stay in place, observing for a while to see if any players were following.
Both players were recruited from mercenary groups. This was also the main guiding ideology and action policy of Vertical and Horizontal: for dangerous things, the mercenary group goes first.
The two rogue players remained at the end of the team in stealth, Unsworn Sword and Reflections of Time anxiously awaiting news. Silvermoon's anxiety was no less than theirs, and even seemed more attentive. This moved Unsworn Sword and Reflections of Time. In such a materialistic world, where could they find such a responsible mercenary? Thinking of the Young Master Elite Group and their ilk, all they knew was how to reach out for money.
As a result, the team continued to advance for about fifteen minutes, and still no news came. The core leaders were all thinking. Silvermoon was just about to give a hint when Unsworn Sword had already said to Reflections of Time, "Perhaps the rogues are already stealthed."
"Probably so," Reflections of Time nodded.
"If that's the case, waiting for the rabbit to fall into the trap won't work," Unsworn Sword said.
"But if they follow behind in the same way, it's not certain who will discover whom," Reflections of Time said.
Everyone nodded in unison.
In the early days of the game, rogues were the best choice for tailing large-scale teams, but as player levels, especially equipment levels, have risen across the board, rogues have become somewhat inadequate.
Why? Because of speed.
After a rogue stealths, their movement speed is greatly reduced to 25% of their original movement speed.
And the slowest profession in Parallel World, the priest, has a movement speed growth of 0.7. Without agility, the naked speed at level 40 is 70 + 40 * 0.7 = 98 points. And the new batch of nimble boots popular among priests at level 40 have a +80 movement attribute, so the priest's movement can generally reach 178. These nimble boots are produced in large quantities and are low in market price, so the usage rate is very high. Ordinary priests can have a pair. At present, these characters are basically first-class or quasi-first-class among the players, and the shoes can only be better than this, not worse.
With 178 movement, if a stealth rogue wants to reach this level, it means their speed needs to reach 712 points.
712 points of movement, this is not a joke, this is a superhuman data. Gu Fei is already considered a very extreme guy in terms of movement speed, but he is only over 500. 712 movement, perhaps even Xi Yao Wu is not so perverted.
So unless players are intentionally slowing down, the days when rogues could safely and boldly tail in stealth are gone forever. At this time, the Cloudrise City player team was moving at full speed. If the rogue attempts to tail, maintaining stealth throughout will only get them left behind, so from time to time they also need to show their figure and catch up.
How to catch them when they show their figure is the main topic of research for anti-rogue tailing. As the method used by Unsworn Sword and the others earlier, letting a few rogues stealth and wait and see is obviously a matter of luck. Who knows if the tailing rogue will happen to reveal their true form when passing your eyeliner.
"Qian Li Zui of the Young Master Elite Group seems to have anti-stealth abilities," Feng Xing said.
"Damn, can't we complete this task without him?" Reflections of Time was indignant. Unsworn Sword was also a little unhappy. If they had to go to him again, who knew how much more Han Family Young Master would extort from them. It was strange how this task seemed to be designed for Qian Li Zui, requiring him to come forward to solve the crisis from time to time.
"Don't look for him, let's figure out a way ourselves!" Reflections of Time said to Unsworn Sword.
Unsworn Sword nodded, turning his gaze to Silvermoon, the good role model of a mercenary in his mind: "Silvermoon, brother, do you have any good ideas?"
"Uh, for now, the only thing that can counter stealth is traps," Silvermoon said.
"Traps..." Reflections of Time muttered, "This is not very reliable either. If you don't know the other party's route, it's useless..."
"Let's treat a dead horse as a living one for the time being! Isn't there such a group this time?" Unsworn Sword said.
Reflections of Time nodded, and sent a message in his group leader channel, calling for Sakura Tomb Moon Child, the leader of the "Great Hunt" group, to come over. Sakura Tomb Moon Child quickly rushed over, greeting everyone. As soon as Silvermoon saw this person, he recognized him as the guy who was now mixed up with Mang Mang, and thought that he probably wouldn't have a good look at him, so he didn't bother to make a fool of himself and consciously moved to the side. Sure enough, when Sakura Tomb Moon Child saw Silvermoon, it was a look of contempt for everything. After being hunted down for a day the day before, they had to understand the ins and outs of the matter. Silvermoon's scumbag role in this story could not be cleared from any angle.
"What's the matter?" Sakura Tomb Moon Child asked Unsworn Sword and the others. Reflections of Time quickly explained, and finally asked, "Most of your group are lurkers, right?"
Sakura Tomb Moon Child sighed regretfully: "It was originally, but 22 of them were killed in Moonlit Night City a few days ago, so they are not anymore."
"That thing is true!" Reflections of Time was恍惚 for a moment. When they left Moonlit Night City, the mercenary groups competed for the losses in Moonlit Night City, and it was said that Sakura Tomb Moon Child boasted that they had fought against the Ten Guild Alliance and sacrificed 22 people. At that time, everyone thought he was bragging, but now they knew that this was a matter of fact.
Sakura Tomb Moon Child had a face of injustice: "What do you think?"
"Less is less! There should be some lurkers in other groups and in our guild, right? Let's put them together first, and brother Moon Child will direct and arrange it," Unsworn Sword said, and then turned his head to the side and added, "What do you think, brother Silvermoon?"
"You are so贱!!!" Silvermoon thought. At this time, he really wanted to cry without tears, but he also knew that Unsworn Sword's words and deeds were beyond reproach, because this idea was Silvermoon's, and then ask for his opinion when the plan was presented, which was also Unsworn Sword's attention and respect for him, but this was not suitable at the moment.
Sure enough, Sakura Tomb Moon Child was very unhappy when he heard that Silvermoon also had a share in this plan. It was as if he was accepting Silvermoon's dispatch to work, which was too embarrassing. Thinking of this, Sakura Tomb Moon Child suddenly covered his stomach: "Oh, my stomach hurts, not good, not good, I'll flash first, you guys organize it yourself!"
"Hey!!" Reflections of Time just called out a word, but is Sakura Tomb Moon Child's 500+ movement speed fake? He disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"What's going on?" Reflections of Time looked at Unsworn Sword in confusion.
"I don't know!" Of course, Unsworn Sword was also at a loss. They were not stupid, of course they would not take the stomach pain seriously, it was an excuse at first glance.
Let you be so 贱... Silvermoon said silently on the side.
"Without them, these lurkers really can't be gathered together!" Reflections of Time was depressed. Lurker is an unpopular profession that is not very popular, and few people switch to it. Their Vertical and Horizontal is even more famous for its arrow formation, so they strongly encourage guild archers to switch to sharpshooters. As for not having traps, they will expand the recruitment after the guild is upgraded in the future! So there are no talents in this area in their guild. Sakura Tomb Moon Child left temporarily, and their plan immediately went bankrupt.
"If it doesn't work, let's go to Qian Li Zui!" Feng Xing said.
Unsworn Sword and Reflections of Time gritted their teeth together, and Silvermoon on the side also said casually: "Qian Li Zui, this person is not very reliable, right?"
On the surface, he was very casual, but in fact, Silvermoon was very nervous at this time. He had been working so hard for so long, not for the task of Vertical and Horizontal, but for his personal safety, to find out if there were scouts from Yun Zhong Mu or Lan Yi behind him, and if there were, he would solve them through Vertical and Horizontal. If Qian Li Zui went, he would not quickly collude with the other party, and would definitely come back and tell Unsworn Sword "It's okay, it's okay, go your way".
"That person is indeed very shameless, despicable and cunning," Reflections of Time said, and Silvermoon was very happy to hear it.
"But his skills are indeed terrible!" Feng Xing said, and Silvermoon was unhappy to hear it, but he couldn't help but admire him in his heart.
"It's definitely no problem to leave this to him," Unsworn Sword said, and Silvermoon's face was ashen.
"But the problem is that it's too expensive," Unsworn Sword continued, and a little life appeared on Silvermoon's face again.
"What the hell is Sakura Tomb Moon Child doing?" Reflections of Time muttered, and called out twice in the channel, but no one answered. Silvermoon dared not say anything on the side.
"I'll go find him!" Reflections of Time wanted to talk to Sakura Tomb Moon Child face to face. Silvermoon was happy again.
"Forget it," Unsworn Sword said, "I think he's probably trying to take the opportunity to ask for a high price. Since we're going to pay anyway, let's go to the more reliable and effective Qian Li Zui!" Silvermoon really wanted to strangle Unsworn Sword.
Reflections of Time was also very unhappy, but he also admitted that Unsworn Sword's words made sense, since Sakura Tomb Moon Child was also going to rip them off, it was better to find Qian Li Zui.
"Call him!" Unsworn Sword sighed, and couldn't help but think of Han Family Young Master, and subconsciously touched his money bag.
This time, Silvermoon took the initiative to stand in a conspicuous position. He hoped that after Qian Li Zui saw him, he would also dislike his idea like Sakura Tomb Moon Child and leave.
Gu Fei came, and before Unsworn Sword could be 贱, Silvermoon took the initiative to help out, giving orders to Gu Fei in a tone that implied command. Unfortunately, he underestimated the professional quality of our teacher Gu Fei. Gu Fei said nothing, listened quietly to their plan, and nodded, "Well, I know. You continue on your way."
"Thank you," Unsworn Sword patted Gu Fei.
Gu Fei nodded, and pointed to Silvermoon before leaving: "Be careful."
Silvermoon was completely stunned. Everyone around him looked at him as if they were looking at a dead man.
