Chapter 1717: The First Calculation, Artifact Mission
Five days later, in a town along the coast.
The dock, which was originally extremely busy, was now as quiet as a library.
The fishermen and farmers on the dock also disappeared. Only some soldiers in fine armor were patrolling around.
In a dock meeting room, a messenger hurried in.
"My lord! My lord! There is a message from the fleet. Our fleet... our fleet..."
"Humph! What happened to our fleet? Did we sink those shabby Tian-class warships?" A refined middle-aged scholar said in a deep voice.
This person was Guo Tu.
"It's not... but our fleet was completely wiped out!"
"What? All eight Tian-class warships were sunk?!" Everyone's heart trembled when they heard this.
"Eight Tian-class warships and thirty Di-class warships were all destroyed!" The messenger seemed to be crying at this moment. This news was too explosive.
You know, these warships were squeezed out by everyone, and they were all the family's foundation. Now they are all gone at once, so what should we do in the future?
Several young scholars in brocade robes had faces as black as the bottom of a pot. These were the children of the prominent families who participated.
"What about Lin Mu?" Guo Tu took a deep breath and asked again.
"General Lin of the Eastern Expedition... The other side only sank a few ground-level warships, which they used to lure our warships."
"The other side has very powerful sailors, and there are also some very powerful crossbow beds on the warships. We were suppressed from the beginning and had no power to fight back." The messenger was not very educated, but he expressed it very clearly.
In general, Lin Mu's fleet is invincible!
This news directly silenced everyone. No wonder he dared to take that epic mission, dared to cross the ocean to the east, and entered the extremely dangerous Endless Sea. He has such strength.
"Calm down." At this time, a calm and calm voice sounded.
Immediately, a more majestic and elegant scholar with a calm expression than Guo Tu stood up. This person has a strong literary and Taoist aura, and his gestures are natural.
If Lin Mu was here, he would definitely recognize that this person is Ju Shou!!!
That's right, Ju Shou actually joined the camp to encircle Lin Mu.
Guo Tu looked at Ju Shou who was calm and composed, and for some reason, he always felt jealous. This person performed quite well in the Yellow Turban Rebellion and served as an official under Huangfu Song, the governor of Jizhou.
After several twists and turns, he met Han Fu, and this time, Han Fu strongly recommended Ju Shou to join the team to encircle Lin Mu.
Ju Shou made a lot of suggestions in several arrangements, and his performance was slightly better than his.
"Have you seen Lin Mu in the fleet that encircled Lin Mu?" Ju Shou asked in a serious tone.
"No! General Huang also couldn't sense that there was a god general in the fleet. There was only one peak heaven-level general leading the team. If it weren't for the inability to fight in the sea, General Huang would have killed all those sailors." The messenger took a breath and recalled.
These words were all said by General Huang.
"Hmph! There is no trace of Lin Mu in the sixth team." After hearing this, Guo Tu immediately rushed to make a conclusion loudly.
In fact, Lin Mu did not take the waterway!
"Mr. Ju Su, Mr. Guo Tu, I have a question. Since the warships under Lin Mu's command are so sophisticated, will he bypass our warship blockade and go directly north to Xuzhou and Qingzhou, and then west to Luoyang?" At this time, a young scholar asked loudly.
Guo Tu's face sank when he heard this. In the words he heard, Ju Su's name was actually before his! !
This detail shows that everyone believed in Ju Su but not him.
However, he did not say anything, but he was secretly uncomfortable in his heart.
"We have used special means to calculate the cause and effect of Lin Mu's entry into Beijing. There are only these, and there will be no other." Guo Tu responded for Ju Su.
"Since there is no trace of Lin Mu in the six teams, what should we do next?" Another young scholar asked in a deep voice.
"Haha... I'll ask Mr. Ju Shou about this. Do you have any good ideas?" Guo Tu was out of ideas at this moment, but he knew how to pass the buck!
"Since Lin Mu didn't make any moves, let's startle the snake! Let's secretly issue tasks to those strange people." Ju Shou smiled lightly, and then spoke confidently.
Everyone was shocked again when they heard this. In several meetings, Ju Shou's performance made them feel refreshed. And each method has a name.
This time it's starting to startle the snake!
"Mr. Ju Shou, the strange people you asked me to contact before, it turns out to be like this, let them help find Lin Mu's trace! Smart!" A young scholar said excitedly. The same was true for others.
"Haha... Minister He is too kind! This plan is thanks to your handling." Ju Shou said calmly.
"Okay, let's start a new plan." After that, everyone in the meeting room began to assign tasks.
An undercurrent surged towards Lin Mu, who had disappeared.
After an incense stick, everyone dispersed.
In the meeting room, only Ju Shou was left.
Ju Su stood up, walked to the dock window, looked at the vast and turbulent sea, raised his lips slightly, and then murmured in a voice that only he could hear: "This is the first calculation... I hope you can survive... There are two more times left..."
...
After the meeting, Guo Tu hurried to an exquisite courtyard in the town.
The three immortals shrouded in mist sat in the courtyard and tasted the fragrant tea.
"The fleet was destroyed? Is there any trace of Lin Mu?" An old man in purple asked softly as soon as he saw Guo Tu coming in.
"Sir, you are very smart. Lin Mu's fleet is very powerful. We returned empty-handed. Lin Mu did not show up either." Guo Tu sighed.
"It's okay. Lin Mu will definitely meet you before he enters Beijing." The old man in purple said meaningfully.
"By the way, I have borrowed a person from Envoy Ding. He will be here soon. Please entertain him well." At this time, an old man in green clothes next to him said in a deep voice.
"What's different about this person?" Guo Tu asked.
"You will know when you meet Lin Mu." The third old man in white clothes responded.
After that, the three asked about the countermeasures of the meeting. When they knew that Ju Shou proposed to use aliens to deal with Lin Mu, their eyes lit up slightly.
Aliens against aliens, interesting!
...
The next morning, a piece of information spread semi-secretly and semi-publicly.
"Brothers, a big thing happened in Shenzhou recently. Do you know?" A player on the Huaxia channel said.
"Oh... what's the big deal?"
"Did Lin Mu make a big move again?"
"Haha... it's really related to Lin Mu. I received a ground-level mission in a county in Yuzhou! The mission reward is very generous, and the mission target is Lin Mu."
"Oh, a ground-level mission! It's considered a high-level mission. What is it? How did it get in touch with Lin Mu?"
"Hehe, here are the mission details:
Mission name: [Trace of Lin Mu]
Mission level: Ground level
Mission requirements: Lin Mu is currently missing. Find Lin Mu's trace. The first discoverer will receive a reward. If you can hit Kill Lin Mu, get the golden scroll on him, and get more rich items.
Mission rewards:
1. Find Lin Mu's trace, get a ground-level weapon, a ground-level [Earth Spirit Pill], and reputation +50,000;
2. Kill Lin Mu, get the golden scroll on him, get a divine weapon, and the position of prefect.
Mission penalty: None
Additional introduction: Lin Mu cannot take the teleportation array due to accepting a special mission, and needs to enter Luoyang in a short time; the initial location is Juzhang City; this mission can be shared. "
"Hiss! ! ! ! "When this mission information was exposed on the Huaxia channel, countless players took a breath.
This mission is too fierce! ! How can it be ground-level?
The second reward, as long as you kill Lin Mu and get the golden scroll on his body, you can get a divine weapon and the position of prefect, which is a step to heaven! !
"Artifact, finally there is a quest about the artifact. Although I don't know why it is earth-level, this quest is awesome!!"
"It seems that the NPC is going to deal with Lin Mu!" Some knowledgeable players have also figured out the key.
"Tsk tsk! Lin Mu has developed too fast and has begun to stir in the peak power wave of the Han Dynasty. It is inevitable that he will be targeted."
"You don't have to think about it... It must be the overlord-level family Yuan and others who are targeting Lin Mu. Rumor has it that Lin Mu has torn his face with the Yuan family..."
"According to this routine, Lin Mu's epic quest is to walk from Juzhang County to the Divine Capital Luoyang... Haha... murderous intent at every step!"
Although new information kept popping up on the Huaxia channel, the players who sent the information all took action.
This strange earth-level quest was also spread at the first time.
