Chapter 387 The effect begins to show!
"According to my cousin's description, Lu Li is not a stupid person."
"He must have his reasons for doing the opposite."
"Is there something strange at the ball?"
"Could it be that...the difference in status between nobles and commoners will affect the tasks issued by the prince?"
The young man with cockscomb hair is named Wan Jiaxi, a member of the Wan family and the younger cousin of Wan Juanshu.
He is not good at fighting due to his natural ability, but he is good at solving puzzles and reasoning.
He does not want to be assigned by the family to do the boring and hard work of cleaning up monster corpses, so he specially hides in the secret realm of rules.
His identity is hidden;
His teammates are temporary;
Even his belief in passing the level is not firm.
It was completely unintentional and done casually.
But by chance, he ran into the person the family wanted to win over urgently-
Lu Li.
Wan Jiaxi originally planned to reveal his identity directly so that he could team up happily with Lu Li.
But remembering the advice of his eldest cousin, he put the idea back -
"To win over a strong man is the same as chasing a woman! Make people feel that you have him in your heart!"
You can't be too deliberate,
You have to keep giving him surprises!
So he simply hid his identity temporarily, won over a few strangers, and acted as the leader of a small group.
It was also his idea to sign the oath contract with Lu Li and others before.
"If Lu Li's move is really meaningful, then my deliberate imitation will arouse others' suspicion."
"If it backfires, delaying my clearance will be a small matter, but if Lu Li has a bad impression of the Wan family, it will be a big sin."
"Not to mention wasting the secret escape ticket, my eldest cousin will definitely give me a set of 'Thai massage' when I go back..."
"It's better to follow the crowd, pretend nothing happened, and wait and see!"
The matter of spending a huge amount of money to buy 'useless' clothes has come to an end for the time being.
After finding that the goods were so expensive that they couldn't afford them at all, the players unanimously decided to return to the Burial Beach.
The return trip was very quiet this time.
Because of the previous experience of being lost, even the carefree Indian players stopped talking loudly.
Instead, they carefully recorded their steps, fearing that something unexpected would happen.
When the fog dissipated and they stepped on the beach again, they breathed a sigh of relief.
The sun set.
Under the gradually dimming sky, the originally quiet and peaceful beach slowly became gloomy.
Fortunately, the prince's guards arrived in time and lit torches in a corner of the beach to dispel some of the darkness.
The servants were busy, quickly and exquisitely arranging the celebration ball.
When the sun completely set and night fell completely, the ball venue was also arranged.
The scale was not large, as if it was specially prepared for the 25 players who entered the secret realm.
Of course, there were only 24 people left now.
The 24 people gathered around early and waited outside the colorful flag fence pulled up by thin wire.
A few anxious people kept looking into the venue.
If there were no guards in fine iron armor blocking the entrance, these players would have rushed in.
After all, the descriptions of rules 3 and 6 are very straightforward:
[After nightfall, a terrifying creature will appear on the Bone Burial Beach. No one has ever seen what they look like. They only know that they eat everything, especially like to bite the flesh and blood from living people! ]
[Any violent acts are prohibited during the ball, otherwise they will be killed on the spot by the prince's guards. ]
Combining the two, it is not difficult to judge that attending the ball is the only way to spend the night safely.
In the quiet atmosphere, the sound of waves hitting the beach became louder and louder.
In the darkness that could not be seen, it seemed that something landed from the sea, staring at the bright ball venue with a covetous look.
Finally, everything was arranged properly.
The guard's majestic voice came from under the armor mask, bringing some peace of mind to the panicked players:
"The ball is about to begin. Please line up and enter in an orderly manner."
Amir and others heard the words and immediately pushed aside the man with gold-rimmed glasses and the greasy middle-aged man in front of them and rushed to the front of the team.
At the same time, they did not forget to turn around and shout at others:
"Everyone line up! Hahaha, we will go in first..."
As a result, before the voice fell, Amir's head hit the guard's chest armor with a thud.
"Why are you still blocking the way? Let us in?"
Amir said unhappily.
The guard responded coldly:
"Watch your words, civilian. This is the first warning!"
"If you do it again, next time, it will block your mouth."
The heavily armored guard tilted the long-handled axe in his hand slightly, and the cold light emitted by the axe blade was palpitating.
Amir swallowed his saliva and looked in the direction of the guard's finger.
"Commoners, make way for the nobles."
"Four distinguished guests, welcome to the prince's ball."
"Sorry, it seems that my clothes are still useful." Lu Li grinned and strode forward.
Pan Xiaoxiao looked surprised, obviously not expecting that the noble clothes would work here.
It is useful, but it seems not so useful.
Based on the experience of many previous strategies,
all players can participate in the ball on the first night as long as their clothes are not too outrageous.
As for who enters first and who goes later?
It doesn't matter at all.
Because there is no situation where monsters appear in advance and hurt the players at the end of the team.
Lu Li's behavior of buying clothes is at best just spending a lot of money to buy face.
Amir was a little uneasy at first when he saw Lu Li and others entering the dance.
But then it was discovered that all players could enter smoothly, and the sarcasm that had just subsided in my heart surged up again.
"Two mythical quality props, and you bought a priority to enter the dance?"
"Lu Li, Lu Li, is there anyone more unjust than you in the world? Hahaha..."
"Foolish people make a lot of money. Standard people are stupid and make a lot of money!"
"Next, we just need to accept the mission issued by the prince and earn enough gold coins. His two mythical props will be ours!"
"Hey, quietly, don't make any noise! Although Lu Li can't understand our language, you still have to be cautious!"
"No, that's right, you must be careful!"
Shah Rukh finally agreed, glancing secretly at 'Ranbir' who was quietly listening.
Seeing that the other party didn't react at all, and said some sarcastic words with the same contemptuous eyes, he dispelled the last trace of concern in his heart.
Perhaps the four of them were really confused by hallucinations at Goodman's caravan earlier.
As everyone knows,
The internal communications of the four Asan players had long been leaked by the insider ‘Ranbir’ using the data panel.
Moreover, it is also a simultaneous interpretation, with an added extravagant version!
But Lu Li didn't care about it.
Of course, he would not be stupid enough to spend the price of two mythical props to buy one priority to enter the dance.
Everything is to pave the way for the mission issued by the prince.
According to the memory of the previous life, there was only one task released on the first day of the dance of [Daughter of the Sea].
There is almost no difficulty, and the amount of gold coins rewarded is not low.
In the previous life, players fought fiercely to get this mission commission.
But this time, they don't have to fight.
