Hu Die Lan

Chapter 847 A Helpless Stalemate

Chapter 74 Thief

The price of teleport scrolls was not cheap. Although the Eagle Regiment used scrolls provided free by the boss's studio, that only made it more unacceptable to fail the boss after spending his money. The members of the Eagle Regiment were furious that Drunken Miles had such insidious methods of attack, and their cursing grew louder. They were experts, but climbing onto a roof without a ladder or something was impossible; they could only attack verbally.

Actually, Gu Fei didn't have so many thoughts. How could he have known that they would always call everyone back? He had simply seen that there were too many opponents to deal with and had gone up on the roof to avoid them. It was Yi Fengzheng who had insisted on asking what the point was, and he had just answered casually. Didn't he use a question mark?

The two sides fell into another stalemate, one above and one below. Gu Fei's gaze shifted, and he suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, someone dropped equipment!"

The people on the street were all taken aback. Forever looked around, but Eighteen Touches was nowhere to be seen. He had issued the call in the mercenary channel. Even though Eighteen Touches had gone to the resurrection point, he should have been just as fast returning with a scroll.

"Eighteen, did you drop equipment?" Forever was just sending the message when someone saw Eighteen Touches reappearing on the roof, peering down! Seeing Drunken Miles walking towards the place where he had dropped the equipment when he fell to his death, he shouted and jumped off the roof without hesitation, throwing out two bricks at the same time, trying to knock Drunken Miles back. Eighteen Touches was confident that this height wouldn't instantly kill him. He was determined to risk his life to get the equipment back first.

As a result, Gu Fei slightly raised his head below, pointed the Dark Night, Flowing Light sword towards the sky, and chanted a Wall of Electric Current.

Eighteen Touches spat blood. He didn't expect that just a few minutes later, he would repeat the same story. Lying on the Wall of Electric Current, twitching, Eighteen Touches tilted his head, watching helplessly as Gu Fei bent down to pick up his equipment. He even looked up at him and asked with a smile, "Is that your Grass Substitute?" (Cao Ti)

Gu Fei had known that the dagger used by Eighteen Touches was called Grass Substitute, which had the skill Substitute Straw Man, when he had made a 100% appraisal of him. Now that he saw that what was dropped was a dagger, he guessed that it was this one.

"Hey, it really is." Gu Fei picked it up and saw that it was indeed Grass Substitute. He raised his head and was about to say something to Eighteen Touches when he suddenly saw Eighteen Touches disappear in a flash of white light.

Gu Fei was stunned, thinking that this guy had been electrocuted to death this time. But when he looked at the task list, the wanted task for Eighteen Touches was still unfinished.

The Eagle Regiment players on the street also saw Eighteen Touches's white light disappear, and they were naturally shocked. However, they were friends with Eighteen Touches and quickly discovered that Eighteen Touches had not died, but had gone offline. This was even more surprising. They thought, could this kid have been so devastated that he had lost all hope for the game?

They were only half right. Eighteen Touches had indeed suffered a great blow, but he hadn't despaired of the game. He was just too shocked and emotionally agitated, so the system had forcibly disconnected him from the game. He wasn't the first person to encounter this situation when dealing with Gu Fei, and he probably wouldn't be the last.

How upright Gu Fei was! At this moment, he was still considering whether to return the Grass Substitute to Eighteen Touches, but he didn't expect that this guy would just disappear like that. The Eagle Regiment players on the street below were still cursing when they saw Gu Fei walk to the edge of the roof. The ranged players all raised their hands, preparing to attack, but Gu Fei flicked his hand, and the dagger hit the head of the mage who was chanting, "Eighteen Touches's dagger."

The cursing stopped instantly. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. The mage picked up the dagger from the ground in a daze and looked around at everyone, "It's really Eighteen's dagger." They were long-term partners and knew each other's equipment very well.

"Drunken Miles, what do you mean by this?" Yi Fengzheng shouted. He felt that there might be some huge conspiracy here.

"You kid, why do you always like to ask what something means? What's your name? Naughty Blue Cat?" Gu Fei said.

"I…" Yi Fengzheng couldn't respond. The system also began to give him a warning. Yi Fengzheng quickly calmed down, but in that instant, he seemed to understand the reason for Eighteen Touches's disappearance.

"Drunken Miles, are you trying to make us owe you a favor?" Forever said with a frown, "But I can tell you, if we drop any equipment, we will never return it to you." Forever thought about it, picking up the opponent's equipment and returning it could only be for this reason, but this idea was too naive.

"You have the nerve to say that?" Gu Fei said.

Forever heard this, did this guy really have this idea? However, he wasn't embarrassed at all, but smiled and said, "What's so embarrassing about it? It's normal for equipment to drop and be picked up by someone else in the game. There's no such thing as returning it. Besides, we're opponents."

"I'm not talking about that," Gu Fei said. "I'm saying, you have the nerve to say you can make me drop equipment?"

"I…" Forever couldn't respond. The system was warning him, understanding Eighteen Touches.

"So, is anyone coming up here to fight me to the death?" Gu Fei asked.

"Come down!!" Everyone pointed and shouted.

Gu Fei ignored them and looked at Maple Blood, who knew Earth Shattering Slash, "Come up, I know your Earth Shattering Slash can jump up to the roof, I've seen it."

Of course, Maple Blood wouldn't go up. After this period of fighting with Drunken Miles, his strength had already been assessed. Whoever went up against him one-on-one would be giving themselves away. For a multi-on-one fight, it would depend on the combination of members, and recovery-type members were very important. Although Drunken Miles couldn't instantly kill them, the damage was still considerable. If they didn't replenish their health quickly, they might be wiped out in the next round.

"Drunken Miles, you're a master. We admit that none of us can beat you one-on-one." Forever said seriously.

"Three or four are fine too," Gu Fei said.

Forever immediately calculated how to get a group of three or four people to fight Drunken Miles, but someone next to him reminded him, "Do we have to keep pestering this guy?"

Forever turned his head to look. It was the leader of the second group, the original leader of the Eagle Regiment, Eagle Yang. These words also awakened Forever. Under the repeated provocations of Drunken Miles, he had indeed lost some of his composure, always thinking about how to get rid of this guy, but the problem was that in the task the boss had given them, getting rid of Drunken Miles didn't seem to be a particularly important point…

Just as he was thinking, a flash of white light appeared on the half-empty space of the warehouse building, and Eighteen Touches had logged back in. But at this time, the Wall of Electric Current had disappeared, and Gu Fei didn't pay much attention to it, letting Eighteen Touches fall down. As soon as Eighteen Touches landed, he pounced on Gu Fei, shouting, "Give me back my dagger!"

Gu Fei dodged to the side and, taking advantage of the momentum, kicked Eighteen Touches into the street.

Eighteen Touches got up and was about to roar when the mage rushed over and stuffed the Grass Substitute back to him. Eighteen Touches held the Grass Substitute in a daze. His roar and charge towards Drunken Miles just now was just a kind of catharsis, a mentality of not wanting to live without the dagger, but he never expected to actually get the dagger back. At this moment, with the Grass Substitute really back in his hand, everything was like a dream, and he couldn't believe it was true.

"What's going on?" Eighteen Touches asked in a daze.

"Put away your straw man! Next time you drop it, I'll be too lazy to pick it up for you again," Gu Fei said.

Eighteen Touches looked at the dagger in his hand and didn't know what to say for a moment. Forever had completely calmed down at this time and waved his hand, "Let's go."

Nineteen took a step and was about to leave the street, Gu Fei followed closely on the roof. Everyone was depressed and glared up at Gu Fei, "What are you following us for?"

"Nonsense, what did I come here to do!" Gu Fei said.

Everyone spat blood. Forever saw Gu Fei's posture and figured he intended to tail them all the time and strike whenever he had the chance, so he waved his hand, and everyone went back to the warehouse building.

"Teleport!" Forever said helplessly, "Still according to what we said before, those with PK values, go wash them off first. Those without PK values… whatever!"

"I don't think we should wash off the PK values," Eagle Yang suggested, "If we disperse, he will definitely find some helpers. If he catches up with those washing off PK values, it might not just be him alone. If there are others, they might be killed and lose a level. I think we should just stay here and let the PK values wear off naturally."

Forever heard this and thought it made a lot of sense, so he nodded, "Then let's all stay here. This is absolutely safe, after all. Let Drunken Miles do whatever he wants outside."

"We're all here, what can he do?" Yi Fengzheng muttered.

As a team, they also had some entertainment activities that didn't involve fighting monsters or doing tasks. Plus, with the studio's backing, they had abundant resources. At this time, they brought out mahjong and cards. Barbecuing on the roof was originally a favorite activity, but now that they thought that Drunken Miles might be guarding the roof again, they had to give it up.

Outside the building, Gu Fei saw everyone enter the building again. He thought they would disperse immediately and immediately rescan their coordinates, but he found that everyone's coordinates were together and not moving. He realized that they were going to defend the building.

Gu Fei couldn't do anything about this. He circled the building twice and even went down to knock on the door. Someone inside asked who it was, and Gu Fei said "Me." Immediately, no one paid attention to him.

Helpless, Gu Fei wandered around the street for a while. His only gain was that he finally knew what main city this was. After sending the message back, it wasn't long before Han Family's Young Master and the others also obtained teleport scrolls to Grassland City and teleported over. Cloud Messenger's Ten Guild Alliance had too large of a force, and the teleport scrolls could only teleport four at a time, so they couldn't afford to teleport so many. In the end, they selected fifty brothers to come and help. Thinking that they had Drunken Miles and this group of top experts who were not weaker than the Eagle Regiment, Cloud Messenger was full of confidence.

Gu Fei told everyone the coordinates. The people who arrived at Grassland City didn't have time to appreciate the customs and scenery of this southeastern main city and rushed over. When they arrived, they saw Gu Fei sitting on the eaves of a house like a thinker, looking helpless.

"What's the situation?" Han Family's Young Master asked.

Gu Fei tapped the door under his feet with his sword, "Inside!"

"All of them?" Han Family's Young Master asked.

"All of them." Gu Fei nodded, then said, "Oh, not all of them, one was sent to jail, that Eight One West Three."

"That grandson, he got off easy!" Cloud Messenger said hatefully. He wouldn't be happy unless Eight One West Three was killed until he lost ten levels. This guy was too arrogant and conceited.

"What other achievements?" Han Family's Young Master asked.

"The one called Eighteen Touches died once," Gu Fei said.

"That's it?" Han Family's Young Master asked.

"That's it."

"It seems the opponent is really difficult to deal with?" Royal God Ming and Battle Without Wounds looked at each other a little. They had been betting on how many people Drunken Miles would have dealt with by the time they got here, but they didn't expect the results to be so bad. This Eagle Regiment seemed to be quite troublesome.

"At least we forced them to hide in the house and not dare to come out!" You Ge said.

"What's the use of that?" Gu Fei sighed.

"It's very useless. They probably have realized that you are using the wanted missions to find out their location. Now they are shrinking in the house together, trying to wear off the PK values. When they use the teleport scrolls to leave, who will know where they went?" Han Family's Young Master said.

"But if they continue to harass the Ten Guild Alliance, they will eventually get PK values, and then they will be found?" You Ge said.

"But Miles can't possibly be online 24 hours a day, right?" Han Family's Young Master awakened everyone with one sentence. These guys had seen Drunken Miles's methods and the ability to grasp their movements. If they chose to avoid Miles by going on and offline, then there would really be no way to solve the problem.

"There's no way, my wanted license can't be lent to others. The Wind Chasing Crest can be." Gu Fei also said helplessly.

"You are so accomplished in wanted missions and have so many privileges. Can't you enter the house to catch people?" Drifting asked.

Gu Fei jumped down from the roof, kicked the door twice, and spread his hands, "See, can't open it."

As a result, arrogant cursing still came from inside, "Drunken Miles, are you annoying or what? It's so noisy!"

"Damn, the grandson is still crazy!!" Cloud Messenger was furious and kicked the door eighteen times in a row. Although the door was shaking and trembling, it was obviously impossible to kick it down. Of course, there was more cursing inside, but they didn't know that it was someone else, and the swear words were all poured on Gu Fei, making Cloud Messenger very embarrassed.

"I think you should go to your camp and consult," Drifting continued his line of thought, "Maybe you have the authority to enter the house to catch people, but you just don't know how to use it."

"Are they going to issue me a search warrant?" Gu Fei smiled.

"Who knows?" Drifting said.

"Okay, I'll go take a look." Gu Fei also treated it as a last resort, but he didn't know where the municipal building of this main city was, so he randomly chose a direction and left the street. He met a player and asked for directions, then really went to find it.

There were naturally NPC guards in the municipal building who could give directions. Gu Fei easily found the guard room of Grassland City. The captain of the guards of Grassland City was also particularly enthusiastic to Gu Fei, not showing any signs of unfamiliarity, which showed that the camps of the world were one family. So Gu Fei treated him like a living person and explained the situation he was currently encountering. The captain of the guards really understood and then told Gu Fei that if he wanted to enter the house to catch people, he needed higher authority, and Gu Fei was not high enough level.

Gu Fei heard this, and although the dialogue was quite like the real thing, this answer was very NPC-like. It was like when an NPC gave a hint when you wanted to complete a task but were missing conditions. Gu Fei guessed that when his wanted license was upgraded again, there might be a day when he could enter the house to catch people, but it was obviously impossible right now.

Helplessly, he relayed this news to everyone. Everyone was still dawdling outside the warehouse building of the Eagle Regiment, also doing nothing. Not many people walked on this street. Those who did pass by were quite surprised that so many people had suddenly gathered on this street. Everyone received Gu Fei's message at this time, knowing that it was absolutely impossible to enter the house to kill people. It was obviously useless to defend it; people had a lot of scrolls and didn't plan to go out walking. So everyone dispersed, according to Han Family's Young Master's idea, to collect more specific information about the Eagle Regiment in the Eagle Regiment's old nest.

On the way back, Gu Fei had another wonderful idea. When he encountered a guard team on the road, he showed his wanted license, requisitioned two guards, and came to the outside of the Eagle Regiment's warehouse building. Gu Fei began to see if the NPC guards would have this authority, but the two soldiers looked at Gu Fei with longing eyes outside the building door, even making helpless expressions on their faces.

Gu Fei saw that he, the boss, didn't have permission, and the two soldiers were even more hopeless. So, after thinking about it, he flew and hid on the roof and ordered the two guards: Knock on the door.

Gu Fei lowered his head from the roof and vaguely heard the Eagle Regiment players in the house shouting: "Drunken Miles, stop it."

Gu Fei directed the guards: "Shout."

So the guards knocked on the door and shouted: "Open the door, we are ordered to arrest the criminal with number 34215."

Gu Fei fell directly from the roof. These guards were too honest. He originally hoped that the guards would just make a sound to make the Eagle Regiment people realize that it was not him. The NPCs' voices were very NPC-like, and experienced old players should be able to hear it. If the players called the door, they might be suspicious, but these NPCs calling the door might lure them out. He didn't expect the guards to actually tell the truth.

Gu Fei listened to the door and heard the guys inside laughing: "This Drunken Miles is really insidious. He even pretends to be an NPC's voice. You have to say, he pretends to be quite like."

"But this guy is still an idiot. He even pretends to be the voice, how can he directly say it's a wanted mission? Do you think we're stupid? Hahahaha!"

"34215! You're wanted, are you afraid?" The people inside laughed, obviously after so long, finding that Drunken Miles couldn't do anything about them, everyone felt that they had finally gotten back at Drunken Miles, and they were in a happy mood.

"Go, go!" Gu Fei helplessly let the two guards go. How can arresting people really be called arresting people? Even if it's called population popularization! NPCs are NPCs, they don't know anything.

Gu Fei looked at the wanted mission list again at this time. Originally, he had received 14 Eagle Regiment players, and Eight One West Three's mission was completed. There were 13 left. And at this time, three more tasks had been marked "failed," naturally because the target's PK value had disappeared. This situation was also considered a mission failure, and Gu Fei felt it was a bit unfair.
