The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 59: Go to Roseburg
"I still think I should go find that person again. Or maybe do something else."
The wandering child couldn't help but said: "I've only been on the phone for more than an hour today... I can't waste a whole day of gaming time here waiting to die."
"Don't speak yet."
Lin Yiyi stared into the void and murmured: "Look at the forum! There seems to be news from the frozen water port."
The wandering child was stunned when he heard this, and opened the forum himself.
After regaining their consciousness, the three of them immediately retreated to their stronghold - a beer factory that had been abandoned for many years.
Its location is in the west area of Roseburg, close to the wheat fields on the outskirts.
There are very few people around, and the houses are very low and simple. It is completely different from the prosperity in the city and the south of the city... There are even very few patrols around.
Maybe it's because there's really nothing to steal around here.
It's past noon now. There are no players in the temporary stronghold who have not yet gone online. All players have woken up and left, so there is no one in the stronghold... If there is a safest place, it is undoubtedly here.
Although it is called a factory, its area is actually about the size of a mill. Some traces of machinery can be seen, as well as a small number of used containers that were once used to hold "green fire"... and four or five huge wooden barrels with empty interiors and more than two meters high.
Everything else that could be moved had already been emptied.
When the players discovered this place, these barrels were in tatters. The room was filled with dust and there were even dead rats in the barrels.
But there are no traces of anyone living there. It seems that even homeless people don't want to live here.
This feels a little strange.
After all, the players are new here, so they don’t know what the taboos are here. But overall, it's at least windproof inside. If you close the door and light a fire in the room, it will be quite warm.
Except for Lin Yiyi, the players who came to Roseburg this time were all male. Therefore, the men took the initiative to do the cleaning after the move. A dozen strong men with far greater physical strength than ordinary people worked together, and the house was completely cleaned up in less than half an hour.
Because the players needed a bed to go offline, after cleaning the place, they took out their weapons and dismantled a large wooden barrel. Using some cotton cloth and ropes they brought, they made some wooden beds that were so crude that they looked like they wanted to cry.
It’s more like a canoe than a bed.
But players don’t really need to sleep on it after all. Whether it's actually comfortable to lie on or not has nothing to do with them.
And the players probably know it well. Most of the beds in this era should be classified as "uncomfortable" in their opinion.
They don't even need to take off their clothes and shoes... they just need a warm, windless, secluded place where they can get off the line safely.
In order to fulfill the requirement of "successfully lurking" in the main mission, 18 of the 20 players will choose to log off here at night, so that everyone can always take care of each other... instead of living in the city. Once caught, there is nowhere to escape.
More than a dozen strong men with strength and agility far beyond ordinary people, holding sharp blades and mastering military swordsmanship for at least five years, squatted very densely in a small room - this was a horror game in a sense.
Imagine that a police officer, a patrolman, or a busybody feels that something is not right about this place. So I came alone late at night and opened the door with no lock...
Then I looked up and saw a dozen strong men, fully armed, lighting candles and silently practicing fighting and disarming in the room; a girl with disheveled hair and a sword on her lap squatted in a wine barrel and stared into the void. His fingers were gesturing in the air, and he let out weird laughter from time to time.
What a shocking and spiritual impact this will be.
The remaining two players did not leave because they did not fit in with the group. They also stayed here on the first night.
But they are anchors and have pretty good social skills. In other words, the resilience to tell lies is very strong.
One of them, by some unknown means, got into the viscount's house under the identity of a gangster and became a guard. Successfully broke into the enemy's camp.
The other person was even stronger - it took him just one day to come into contact with one of the extraordinary powers in this world.
Yes, he successfully joined the church and became a deacon of Lord Silver. He was assigned a warm house directly in the church, and even got free breakfast and dinner... The most outrageous thing is that he actually still got a salary.
Therefore, they naturally have other tasks during the day. No longer act together with other players.
Of course, information must be posted in a timely manner and shared on the forum.
Because the mission is time-limited and will fail, and these players are not familiar with each other, at least they all know that each other is reliable. Therefore, after players obtain information, they will promptly upload it to the forum, open a post, and brainstorm.
This method of communication across time and space has indeed helped players very well.
For example... it allows them to immediately notify Don Juan Geraint himself in the Frozen Water Port of Dr. Gerald's information.
"——They are all coming!?"
After reading Jiu'er's post, the wandering child's pupils shrank and he was very surprised: "The main mission...has been changed?"
Yes.
The twenty people who originally stayed at Frozen Water Port had the main mission of "defending Frozen Water Port", and suddenly they all became the same "Rosberg Disaster" as them.
"The information you upload may be more important than you think."
Delicious Wind Goose said in a deep voice: "I speculate that the ~IndoMTL.com~ you two caught may not be an enemy we can encounter at our current level, but a leader who appears after a series of mission chains. .
"That is to say...you are most likely stuck in a bug and skipped the level, kid god."
"...Huh?"
The child looked confused.
He was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Then I won't be banned, right?"
"Definitely not. And if nothing else happens, the contribution of the three of us to the task may be very high..."
Lin Yiyi analyzed: "The doctor used this roundabout method to kill the child, which shows that he did not want to be exposed. He should have some need to hide his identity... This means that his identity cannot be seen in the light.
“But the Viscount has a secret connection with him, which means that he is roughly on the same side as the Viscount. And now that Viscount is in a hostile camp with us, so it means that the doctor should be the enemy we will encounter later.
"He can unknowingly hypnotize others, change their minds, and even curse others to death silently. If he keeps hiding in the dark, this enemy will become very difficult.
"But this enemy hiding in the dark was blown out by us."
Lin Yiyi affirmed: "I think the variable we have created is likely to make things significantly better -"
"...So, the fact that Mr. Gerald was discovered is probably a good thing."
On the other side, Annan was also explaining softly to Salvatore.
His voice was soft and childish, but full of wisdom: "Since we will face him sooner or later...
"I would rather stand under the sun and have an upright duel with him."
The convoy from Frozen Water Port is heading towards Fort Ross.
They will arrive in four hours.
