city ​​of sanctuaries

Chapter 85
Uncle Hubbard said very well, there is no one who does not love gold coins, and gold coins can avoid a lot of trouble in most cases.

Like now.

Facing the chattering instructor, Fang Tian took out a gold coin from his backpack, and after shaking it in front of the instructor, the instructor immediately shut up obediently.

This gold coin was brought from Shen Luoluo just now. Earlier, Fang Tian handed over the sand lizard tail and equipment that they exploded after spawning monsters in the Lost Valley to Shen Luoluo. gold coin.

Fang Tiandao, "I don't have much time, how can I enter that tower?"

The instructor stared at the gold coin in Fang Tian's hands, licked his lips, and looked around again. After making sure that no one noticed him, he pulled Fang Tian and said in a low voice: "It's very simple, only twenty silver coins are needed. I will write you a letter of introduction..."

After spending twenty silver coins, Fang Tian didn't need to do the complicated pre-task mentioned in the forum, and got a beautifully packaged letter of introduction directly from the instructor.

After that, Fang Tian went straight to the Ghost Tower outside the city.

The orc incident has been known to the majority of players, and it is even more heated in the forum. Although more than a month has passed since the opening of the Ghost Tower, the heat has faded a lot, but at this time there are still a large number of players gathered here .

They all wanted to get a share of this mission, and even many players set up small vendors directly at the entrance of the Ghost Tower.

"Evil Potion! Bright Potion! Ice Potion! All fifty! All fifty! Only fifty! If you buy it, you will lose money and you will not be fooled! Come and see!"

"The latest elementalist equipment! All attribute resistance +10, top quality!"

"The totem with +20 magic damage, with it, go directly to the 40th floor!"

Hearing the yelling in his ears, Fang Tian frowned secretly, thinking that the security situation in this ruined city was really bad. In the city where he had lived for more than ten years, he would be arrested and imprisoned for setting up a stall like this. .

Bypassing these unlicensed small vendors, you can see that there is a long queue at the gate of the Dead Soul Tower. It seems that everyone needs to go through a certain inspection before entering the Dead Soul Tower.

The queue was long, but the speed was fast, and it was Fang Tian's turn after a while.

After the guard checked Fang Tian's recommendation letter, he tore him into pieces, and gave Fang Tian a brass-colored medal with a lifelike phoenix engraved on it.

After receiving the medal, Fang Tian heard a game prompt.

"The player has completed the task: recruiting soldiers from the city lord of the ruined city, and received the recruit medal (level: 0)."

Fang Tian looked at the extra medal in his backpack. Sure enough, as said on the forum, this medal had no attribute bonus at all.

The soldier guarding the gate stretched out his hand to Fang Tian, ​​and made a classic gesture of collecting money: "You need to pay 10 silver coins for each challenge to the Ghost Tower, and you can repeat the challenge an unlimited number of times. We only take your highest score, but As the most junior soldier, you need to pass at least 25 floors."

So another 10 silver coins were missing from the backpack...

"Next!"

After paying the money, the soldier waved his hand, and Fang Tian also stepped into the gate of Ghost Tower.

As soon as he stepped into the gate of the Ghost Tower, Fang Tian was surrounded by a soft white light, and Fang Tian also felt something strange.

It turns out that the setting of this gate is similar to a teleportation array...

"Cuckoo!"

Teleported to the first floor of the Ghost Tower, as soon as he opened his eyes, three grunting wild boars appeared in front of Fang Tian.

The dagger twirled slightly in Fang Tian's palm, and then the whole person stepped forward, stepped forward, and stabbed in the back.

……

"By the way, how is Fang Tian doing lately?" Lin Qiao was sitting on the sofa, talking on the phone with Tang Ran. After exchanging pleasantries, Tang Ran asked about Fang Tian's current situation.

"It's pretty good. I've talked a lot recently. It seems that I'm playing well with Qianqian. I also heard from Qianqian that Fang Tian is very talented in games."

"Game talent..."

Hearing this word, Tang Ran on the other end of the phone suddenly appeared in front of his old friend. His talent in games is amazing.

"What's wrong? Suddenly stopped talking?"

When he came back to his senses, Tang Ran couldn't help laughing. Fang Tian really inherited his father's talent in games.

"It's nothing, let him go. It's good to have a hobby, and make a name for yourself. If you become a professional gamer in the future, it will be even better."

"I don't want him to be a professional gamer." Lin Qiao complained: "You said professional gamer at the beginning, making a lot of money, but what happened later? Such a dangerous job..."

"Heh..." Tang Ran smiled awkwardly, not to entangle too much on this topic, "There have been some incidents in the Seventh District these days, and there have been some big moves recently. not coming."

"Be careful and pay attention to rest."

"You too, I have something else to do, I'll hang up first."

Tang Ran hung up the phone and leaned back on the chair behind him. What he was holding in his left hand was the briefing on the incident that happened in District [-] last time.

The hazard rating for this mission is 3A.

It was preliminarily concluded that it was done by people from the Yiyue organization.

Yiyue used some methods to open the secret passage leading to the underground through quests in advance, and conducted some kind of experiment on these three high-level npcs under secret circumstances, and successfully made them obtain some kind of information other than the game settings. Special consciousness, this kind of consciousness is above the rules of the game, which allows them to completely use the powerful destructive power of 'mind' on players who have not entered the game.

What's even more frightening is that after follow-up investigations, although these three mummies were discovered recently, the place of Desert Valley has been included in the surveillance area of ​​the Seventh District since three years ago, and everything is beyond the ordinary. Fluctuations are monitored.

In other words, the time of Itsuki's experiment was at least three years ago.

It turned out that as early as three years ago, they had already started experimenting with task NPCs with advanced intelligence... Tang Ran tapped the armrest of the chair lightly with his fingers.

Although in the end, the three mummies caused a self-detonation reaction because they could not control their own power, this is enough to show that they have made a breakthrough in the study of 'Nian'.

Itsuki.

Have they made it this far?
Tang Ran closed the document report and threw it on the desk.

In this mission, two team members died and three others were seriously injured.

Coincidentally, the mission report pointed out that Fang Tian also appeared there. Is this really just a coincidence?

Tang Ran turned around her chair and looked out the window.

His eyes were deep and calm.

Fang Tian, ​​no matter whether this matter has anything to do with you or not, I will not let you follow your father's path.
