System: Due to the early departure of the Red Dragon King Harriote, the Lord of the Abyss, the epic event ended early, and the rewards are now settled.

System: Congratulations to a player on your party who has died less than 10 times in the Abyss's Hunt and persevered until the end of the epic event, gaining 3,000,000 XP points, 120 World Fame, and Pandora's Box (Orange).

System: You reach level 36 and get 5 free points.

……

Open the system backpack, and there is indeed an orange Pandora box inside, which is equipment or props that can have a chance to open orange epic items, and the preciousness can be imagined. With a lot of experience bonuses, the experience points that I lost before have also returned, and I have re-upgraded to level 36.

However, after all this was over, Lin Yue did not feel the slightest bit happy. Although he didn't know if it was because of this epic event that caused the temporary maintenance of the server this time, the only thing Lin Yue was sure of was that what he was about to face now was far more terrifying than the epic event itself.

Putting the reward away, Lin Yue planned to go and join Mo Yan and Ou Peikun now, but as soon as Lin Yue turned around, Tostri suddenly walked over.

"Your Excellency Brother Tuhao, wait!" Although the injuries on this guy's body looked very serious, he looked quite energetic on the whole, and when he came to Lin Yue, he said happily: "It's really good, it turns out that you are still alive!" ”

Suddenly, Lin Yue didn't know how to react to being greeted by such a concern, and replied with a smile: "I was lucky, I found a basement nearby just now and hid." ”

Tostri didn't care whether what Lin Yue said was true or false, he only said, "As long as people are safe and sound." Speaking of this, Testri looked at Gan Lifu with a sad face not far away, and said with a wry smile: "Now that the Dark City has been destroyed, and the city lord's sister has been taken away by the Lord of the Abyss, we really don't know what to do." ”

Unexpectedly, this guy came over to complain to him, Lin Yue didn't know whether to comfort him or not, after all, the dark city was like this, and Lin Yue himself had to bear a lot of responsibility.

"By the way, Your Excellency Brother Tuhao, you are an adventurer, I have something I want to ask you, I hope you don't refuse." Testri continued.

When Lin Yue heard this, could there be still a task in the heart path? Just as I was about to think about it, the information has been refreshed on the system's side.

System: You triggered the quest "Hometown", Difficulty E, Captain Terstril of the Dark City commissioned you to go to the town of Lorne, the hometown of the Lord of the Dark City, Ganlif, and inform Ganlif's father, Field Marshal Gellert, of the news that his sister Liv had been taken captive by the Lord of the Abyss.

It turned out to be just an errand mission, and seeing Tostrili's pleading look, Lin Yue had no choice but to bow his head and say, "Okay, I'll pass through Lauen Town, and I'll deliver this news to you." ”

"Thank you." According to Tostril's words, now that the Dark City is destroyed, as the city lord, Gan Lifu will soon be summoned by the Demon King to be held accountable, and they will probably not have time to deal with other things next, which is why Tostri wants Lin Yue to help spread the word.

……

Leaving the dark city with thousands of holes, Lin Yue rode on the little pill and set off in the direction shown on the system map, because Lin Yue himself was a player in the Eastern Continent, so the teleportation array of the dark city could not be used, but even if it could be used, the teleportation array of the dark city had already been destroyed in the epic event just now, and Lin Yue could only rely on the four legs of the little pill to get on the road after all.

Fortunately, the agreed location was not very far from the Dark City itself, and Lin Yue rode a small pill and quickly arrived at a place called Baidur Fortress.

It was a deserted military fortress, built on the mountain of the Kra Mountains, originally used to block the harassment of the Giants in the northeast, and then the Giants joined the Dark Council, and this fortress was abolished, and now it is a place where some monsters live.

Due to the temporary maintenance of the server, Lin Yue could no longer see the crowded leveling army along the way, so when he came along the way, Lin Yue encountered many wild monsters that wanted to attack him.

System: You kill the Wild Buffalo and gain 440 XP.

After getting rid of the last entangled guy, Lin Yue finally came to the meeting place.

"Brother Tuhao, this way!"

A familiar voice came from afar, and Lin Yue followed the sound to see that it was Mo Yan, who he hadn't seen for a long time, this guy's role in the game was a giant clan, and his profession looked like a legal system.

There was also a beautiful and hot blood elf girl beside Mo Yan, and Lin Yue looked at her ID before confirming that she was Ou Peikun.

In reality, Lin Yue has seen Ou Peikun is definitely not so beautiful, and it is estimated that he spent a lot of effort in choosing the characters.

"Sorry, a little late." Lin Yue stepped forward and said to the two of them.

"It's fine." Mo Yan smiled slightly, pointed to a cave behind him and said, "Let's go in first, it's not convenient to talk here." ”

Lin Yue nodded, and walked into the cave with Mo Yan and Ou Peikun.

took out a magic oil lamp from the system backpack, and after igniting it, the orange-yellow light illuminated the deep cave, Mo Yan's expression was heavy, and he took the lead in saying: "Just now I tried to use the game's emergency offline function to forcibly go offline, but the result is unfortunate, the system prompts that the operation is forbidden." ”

This result was completely expected, and Lin Yue, who had tried it a long time ago, was not surprised at all.

Ou Peikun pursed his lips, tears were swirling, and he said anxiously: "The other friends I know in the game have gone offline, and I am the only one here, is it because we are the artifact holders that we stayed?" ”

"It's almost certain that the reason is right." Although he didn't want to admit it, after seeing the two of them, Lin Yue was almost 100% sure.

"Now that the server has been shut down and the game is supposed to cease operations, why are we still in the game? It's weird. Mo Yan said.

"No, I thought there was a possibility, enough for us to stay in the game." Lin Yue said suddenly.

Mo Yan and Ou Peikun looked at Lin Yue in unison, and asked in unison, "What is it?" ”

“G! M！ Lin Yue said expressionlessly.

"What?" Mo Yan was startled at first, and then frowned: "GM does have the ability to keep us artifact holders in the game, but why do they do this?" ”

"God knows." Lin Yue rolled his eyes, let out a long sigh, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know what their purpose is, but one thing I can be sure of, whether it is the fight between the artifact holders or this temporary maintenance, I think Interstellar Online, the operator of 'Realm OL', is the most suspicious behind the scenes, isn't it?" ”

PS: On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I wish you all a happy new year and a safe family!
