System Notification: You have accepted the quest "Kill the Oceanic Invaders"!
System Notification: You have obtained the item "Mirror of Truth"!
Mirror of Truth: Quest Item. Cannot be traded or dropped. Can only be used during the Oceanic Invasion. Will disappear automatically after expiration.
With this item, players can use the skill "Eye of Truth" to determine if a target is a Oceanic Invader in disguise. Skill can be used once every five minutes.
"Time is of the essence. Hero, please find and kill the Oceanic Invaders as soon as possible. Otherwise, the East Maritime City will be in great danger!" the old NPC said.
"Okay."
Chen Mo nodded and asked the old NPC again. After the old NPC did not say anything else, Chen Mo left the Castellan's residence.
There was a faint magic barrier around the East Maritime City. The sea fog created by the Oceanic Invaders could not enter the city.
As a main city, the East Maritime City was not too dark at night. There were street lamps at regular intervals.
Chen Mo had not been in the East Maritime City for long, so he did not know what the city was like at night. However, there were not many players in the city tonight.
As the monsters were attacking the city, most of the players had either gone offline or went out of the city to kill sea monsters to earn points and exchange for rewards.
There were not many players in the city. The few players that were in the city were in a hurry to buy supplies and items from the System Shop and the Trading Point.
If the Oceanic Race really did invade Eastsea City, they wouldn't have any scruples when it came to doing things.
However, there were too few players in the city. It was much more convenient for him to find the Oceanic Invaders. If there were people everywhere, it would be very difficult to find them.
The problem was that the East Maritime City was neither big nor small. If he searched blindly, he might end up playing hide-and-seek with the Invaders. In the end, he would not even find a shadow.
Since that was the case, he had to first determine where the Invaders might be and go there to confirm.
Then, where could the Oceanic Invaders be?
Chen Mo lowered his head and muttered to himself.
The Oceanic Invaders had entered the East Maritime City. However, until now, the city had not suffered any damage.
It was obvious that the destruction caused by the Oceanic Tribe players was not superficial. Otherwise, East Sea Metropolis would not have remained unscathed until now.
There were two possibilities. The first was that it was not the time for the mission and they were just hiding. When the time came, all the invaders would attack together.
The other possibility was that they had already begun to destroy the city. However, this destruction would not be ordinary destruction. Instead, they would be setting up a gigantic magic array in East Sea City. As long as the magic array was completed, it would cause massive damage to the city.
Of the two scenarios, the second one was undoubtedly the most likely. The first one was too stingy, and there was not much meaning in implementing it.
Setting up a gigantic magic array would be much easier.
As long as the Seafolk players set up important tools at key locations, the magic array would be completed once all the tools were set up. All he needed to do was to find the key locations.
Magic arrays were generally circular, and with the layout of East Sea City's buildings, it wasn't too difficult to find them.
However, Chen Mo was not familiar with East Sea City. He could only go to the game forum and search for a map of East Sea City drawn by players. After some research, he returned to East Sea City.
Chen Mo already had a lot of guesses about where the invaders might appear.
Taking advantage of the night, Chen Mo went to the mayor's residence, the resurrection point, the trading area, and several other important places. However, he did not see any suspicious characters.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, the corner of Chen Mo's eyes twitched. He saw a skinny player shrink back slightly after seeing him!
Hahaha, little guy, you gave yourself away when you saw me, right?
Chen Mo thought for a moment and understood what was going on!
Those Oceanic Tribe players were now afraid when they saw him. This guy must have recognized him and thought that he was looking for him. He unconsciously gave himself away!
It seemed that being famous was not all bad!
These guys were really good at hiding. If they did not give themselves away, he really would not have discovered them. After all, the Eye of Truth was used once every five minutes. It was impossible to use it every time he saw someone.
The Eye of Truth!
This time, Chen Mo did not hesitate to use the Eye of Truth on the player!
Chen Mo's eyes suddenly had an additional layer of faint blue light. Through this layer of blue light, Chen Mo immediately saw that the player was flashing red!
It was the Oceanic Tribe invader!
Ceci Hailow!
After calling out Ceci Hailow, Chen Mo and Ceci Hailow rushed toward the Oceanic Tribe player.
The Oceanic Tribe player was only suspicious and gave himself away. Now, it seemed that this guy was really looking for him.
Run!
The Oceanic Tribe player knew that Chen Mo was powerful and had no intention of fighting. He turned around and ran.
"Still want to run?
In your dreams! "
Chen Mo was not slow, and Ceci Hailow was even faster. The two of them chased for a short while and cornered the Oceanic Tribe player in a corner.
The Oceanic Tribe player that Chen Mo had cornered was a somewhat wretched-looking thin Archer. Chen Mo looked at him and told Ceci Hailow not to kill him. He only wanted to kill him until he was about to die. Only then did he say, "Brother, how about this? If you give me the location of the other Oceanic Tribe players, not only will I not kill you, but I will also give you a lot of benefits!"
This guy was a Oceanic Tribe invader. Even if he did not know the exact location of the other Oceanic Tribe players, he definitely knew the general location. After all, the quest location was fixed in Eastsea City, so it would not be too far away.
As long as he knew the location of the other Oceanic Tribe players, Chen Mo was confident that he could kill most of them. That way, even if he let the thin Archer go, he would still gain a lot of benefits.
"Don't think about it. If you want to kill me, then kill me quickly. I will not leak the location of the other Oceanic Tribe players to you." The thin Archer snorted.
"So courageous?
It's just a game. "Chen Mo was surprised.
"Hmph, what do you know? We accepted the quest, so all of our words and actions are monitored by the system. If we are found to have leaked information about our faction, being kicked out of the Oceanic Tribe is the lightest punishment!" The thin Archer said unhappily.
"I see. You can go. Thank you for telling me this important information. In return, I will not kill you." Chen Mo nodded. He did not expect there to be such a setting in the game. How unexpected.
Not kill him? Let him go?
The thin Archer was stunned. He wondered if he had heard wrong.
How could this guy be so kind?
By now, almost all the players in the Oceanic Tribe city knew that this guy did not care about his own life. He killed people for points without hesitation.
If he killed this Oceanic Tribe player who had invaded the city, he would definitely gain more points as a reward. Would he let him go just like that?
No!
This guy had ulterior motives!
He wanted to let him go, then use the Disguise skill to follow him and find the other Oceanic Tribe players!
"I don't want you to let me go. Hurry up and kill me!" The Oceanic Tribe player hurriedly said.
This guy was too despicable. If he really ran to meet up with the other Oceanic Tribe players and this guy killed him, the system would accidentally determine that he was a traitor. That would be a complete tragedy!
Even if he had to die, he could not let this guy have his way!
"What are you talking about? I said I'll let you go, so I'll let you go. I definitely won't kill you. Don't worry and go." Chen Mo and Ceci Hailow stepped aside.
"Don't try to trick me. I know what you want to do. If you don't kill me, I'll run out of the city and not do the quest!" The thin Archer shouted.
Purposely lead this guy in circles?
This guy would definitely kill him if he saw that the situation was not right.
Notify the other Oceanic Tribe players and have them team up to deal with him?
This guy was very famous. Even if other players were willing to team up with him and take the risk, he was not sure if they could kill this guy.
If they could not kill this guy, they would be wiped out. At that time, they might even have to face the danger of colluding with the enemy. After all, he did not know how the system judged.
Since that was the case, he might as well be killed by this guy. The sooner he died, the sooner he could reincarnate. At the same time, he would have more time to earn more points.
"Sigh, looks like he still doesn't know how to act." Chen Mo sighed. Since the other party had already said so, what else could he say?
With a wave of her hand, Ceci Hailow killed the thin Archer.
System Notification: You have killed a special Oceanic Tribe Invader. You have received 200 points. You have received an additional 200 points!
Damn, killing a Oceanic Tribe Invader actually gave him 400 points!
Chen Mo's eyes instantly lit up.
If he killed a few more, wouldn't his points soar?
Chen Mo's spirits were lifted. He continued to search for Oceanic Tribe Invaders all over Eastsea City.
However, more than 20 minutes passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Mo had searched almost half of Eastsea City, but he could not find a single Oceanic Tribe Invader.
"This doesn't make sense. The Oceanic Tribe Players definitely entered the city, and there are quite a few of them.
There aren't many players in the city, and I encountered a few suspicious players along the way. However, I didn't see any Oceanic Tribe Players. No matter how I think about it, it's not normal. "
Chen Mo stopped in his tracks, pondering where he had gone wrong.
He had also used the Eye of Truth several times during the 20 minutes, but he still could not find anything.
"The sewers?"
Suddenly, Chen Mo looked at the manhole cover not far away and came to a sudden realization!
That's right, the sewers!
If he wanted to set up a magic circle to destroy Eastsea City, not only would it be equally effective, but it would also be safer and more suitable!
This also explained why he had not been able to find any Oceanic Tribe Players.
Thinking about it carefully, the thin Oceanic Tribe Invader that he had found earlier was also not far away from a sewer cover!
Chen Mo immediately ran over, opened the sewer cover, and jumped in.
The sewers were dark, but there were street lamps at intervals in the sewers. However, these street lamps were much dimmer than the street lamps outside the city.
Chen Mo moved quickly in the sewers with Ceci Hailow. He was not worried about being ambushed, as no one knew that he had entered the sewers yet.
After a while, Chen Mo saw a few shadows moving in the light ahead!
He had Ceci Hailow turn invisible, and then he himself entered Camouflage and quietly moved over.
After turning a corner, Chen Mo saw a few players bending over in a corner of the sewers, fiddling with something.
"Damn it, I finally found you!"
…
"Third update!
Are there any more monthly votes? I'm only a little bit away from the front, please help! "
