Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 249
Chapter 249 The King’s Summons
“Big brother, second brother, since you told the kindergarten that you are from my mercenary group, why don’t you join my mercenary group?” Xu You remembered another question.
“I’ll just wait for your invitation. Youyou, you’re really not smart.” Zhang Ping smiled and shook his head. His meaning was obvious.
Xu You said embarrassedly, “Uh, I’m sorry. I thought you didn’t like joining mercenary groups or guilds, but I should have thought of it earlier.”
“It doesn’t matter. Actually, if it weren’t for your mercenary group, Bottle and I wouldn’t be willing to join. Normally, both of us would have acted much more alone.” Wei Mingyuan said.
“Don’t worry, boss. Our Mercenary Group is very casual. There are no restrictions. If you want to level up or play instance dungeons, you can just arrange an appointment. However, my Mercenary Group only has seven of you. Moreover, Wu and Little Xi are going to school. Basically, only five of us are online.” Xu You said helplessly. Compared to a large mercenary group like the Scythe of Death, Xu You’s Beauty Obsession was too small.
“School? Perhaps after a while, the school will be closed.” Wei Mingyuan looked helpless.
“Why?” Zhang Ping asked. The others also looked at Wei Mingyuan with confusion.
Wei Mingyuan saw that everyone was very curious. He hesitated for a while before saying, “Because after a while, the cold period will truly arrive. The temperature in S City is already close to zero degrees. I believe that Youyou’s side has also dropped to around 10 degrees, right?” It is estimated that by December, even the temperature near the equator will drop below zero degrees Celsius. No one knows how cold we will be. As far as I know, in order to reduce energy consumption, the higher ups have already issued a notice. Other than the daily necessary production work, all other social activities will be stopped and we will stay at home for the winter together. ”
“Really? Don’t work, don’t go to school, stay at home all the time, what if you’re bored?”
“Entering the New World! Don’t forget the original purpose of the virtual game created by the whole world.” Wei Mingyuan said with a smile.
“Then wouldn’t there be more people playing this game? But there are already many people now.” Zhao Chen said.
‘”Not much. Recovery City is very short of people. Moreover, there is a central city in Victorious Return Continent that is not open yet. I heard that the main city is bigger than the six main cities combined. How magnificent and magnificent should it be? I really want to see it.” Xu You said longingly.
‘”Haha, there are many benefits to having more people. At that time, many people who are not from the game world will enter this game. It can be said that the” New World “is already the second world of mankind. I heard that Miss Ruoxin, the most beautiful entertainment star in China, will also enter this game to play!” Zhang Ping’s focus was on another aspect.
“What does this have to do with you?” Xu You argued with Zhang Ping again.
“Damn, Miss Ruoxin doesn’t have a boyfriend yet. I think I still have a chance!” Zhang Ping said.
‘”Cut ~” Everyone resolutely despised Zhang Ping.
“However, judging from this news, many people from different fields have entered the New World. This also means that many forces will appear in the game. At that time, it will be lively. I didn’t expect the arrival of the cold period to cause such a result. Although the cold period is not the end of the world, the impact on humans is still very serious.” Wei Mingyuan said.
“Yes.” Everyone’s mood was somewhat depressed.
Seeing this, Wei Mingyuan didn’t want the topic to continue. He said, “Alright, you guys should know what I just said. Don’t say it out loud, because this notice hasn’t been officially issued yet. I can consider it as leaking information.”
Everyone nodded when they heard this, but Zhao Chen asked doubtfully, “Big brother, how did you know about this? I heard that this kind of news is not something ordinary people can know.”
“Uh, this, because my family has people involved in politics, that’s why I know.” Wei Mingyuan rubbed his nose and thought, “Fortunately, I am a tauren. My appearance has changed a lot. Otherwise, I will be recognized.”
Obviously, Wei Mingyuan knew Zhao Chen. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have discovered Zhao Chen’s identity. Zhao Chen also knew him, but he had never told Xu You his identity. Although Xu You had guessed a little, he was only half-aware, so it was better not to let Zhao Chen recognize him.
Xu You saw Wei Mingyuan’s somewhat embarrassed expression and knew that Wei Mingyuan was unwilling to mention his identity, so she winked at Zhao Chen. Zhao Chen could only put away the curiosity in his heart. She always felt that she had seen Wei Mingyuan before.
Next, after Xu You invited the two brothers into the mercenary corps, Xu You’s mercenary group was only Level 2, but the effect of increasing their experience was already 6%. Therefore, the speed of leveling up was very fast. In addition, Xue Wuhen had given Xu You more than 10 bottles of innate potions. Now was not the time to hide them. As a result, their experience had risen by a small amount during the night of leveling up.
After an entire night, everyone was temporarily disbanded. They rested and continued to level up. Among them, Xu You chose to go offline to rest. His schedule was actually very regular. After sleeping until noon, he ran to the forbidden area of the Imperial Palace to receive prestige missions and mercenary missions as soon as he went online. He could do what he should do every day.
However, when he came to Johnson to receive the prestige mission, he received an unexpected mission, “Meeting the King”.
“Sir, may I know what the King is looking for?” Xu You asked Johnson after receiving the mission.
But Johnson shook his head and said, “I don’t know, but it can’t be a bad thing. Don’t worry, come with me.”
“Alright.” Xu You could only follow him. Although this mission was very sudden, he couldn’t help but do it. Furthermore, Xu You felt that it might be related to a natural disaster. However, why would he be looking for him? Could it be because he was ranked number one on the Reputation Rankings? Or was it the first on the Ranking List? Or did the king know that he was the one who caused the calamity?
Xu You followed Johnson into the official area of the palace with doubt and apprehension. This was something that players had never dabbled in before, However, Xu You had been pondering the King’s purpose for summoning him all the way, so he did not pay attention to the surrounding scene. When someone reminded him, Xu You discovered that he had already arrived at an exquisite and beautiful courtyard. In front of him was an elegant bungalow. At the same time, the person who reminded him was not Johnson, but an NPC similar to a waiter.
“Didn’t we meet in the palace?” Xu You was puzzled.
However, the attendant noticed Xu You’s doubts and smiled. “This is His Majesty’s request. His Majesty said that this is a private meeting. Please don’t be too restrained, Mr. Wuyou. His Majesty is already waiting inside. You can enter now.”
Hearing this, Xu You nodded and pushed open the door. After entering the bungalow, Xu You immediately felt a fragrance of books pouncing on him. This was actually the study room! What was the matter with the human king summoning him in the study? Could it be a hidden mission? Xu You still had many thoughts in his heart.
The study room wasn’t big. There were sandalwood bookshelves on both sides. There was a red wooden table inside. There was a window on the wall not far behind the table. In front of the window stood a human man with his back facing Xu You. Xu You knew that this man was the supreme leader of the human empire, Emperor William.
Xu You carefully observed Emperor William and found that the emperor was quite sturdy, but judging from his attire, he should be a mage, because even Xu You could feel the magical aura emitted by the golden dragon robe on Emperor William’s body.
The first time he saw the so-called emperor, Xu You was at a loss as to what to say. Just as Xu You was speaking, Emperor William turned around and said indifferently, “No need to be formal. To you migrants, I am not your king. It is good that I am at will.” Even so, Xu You could still feel William’s majesty as an emperor.
Xu You heaved a sigh of relief and asked, “I wonder why the King called me here?” Then he observed Emperor William.
Emperor William was also observing Xu You. After hearing Xu You’s words, he didn’t beat around the bush and directly said, “I called you here for the Sky Calamity. Have you heard of the Sky Calamity Legion?”
“How could I not have heard of this? I was the one who created this. Oh, the king indeed called me here for the sake of a natural disaster. But what does he want me to do?” Xu You thought to himself, but on the surface, he nodded and answered Emperor William’s question.
“Then you should have heard of the horrors of the Calamity Legion, “Now that they have returned to Victorious Return Continent, they will soon attack every major city, spreading disease and disaster to every corner of Victorious Return Continent. At that time, Victorious Return Continent will be devastated and restless. Even all the creatures of Victorious Return Continent will become the claws of the Calamity Legion, losing their rationality and becoming monsters that only know how to destroy and destroy!” Emperor William’s voice was very solemn. If Xu You wasn’t a player, he would definitely become frightened and uneasy because of his infection.
However, Xu You was a player and knew that the calamity would arrive in half a month, so he wasn’t surprised. However, he had to follow Emperor William’s instructions if he wanted to receive this hidden mission.
“I know how powerful the Sky Calamity Legion is. I didn’t expect them to arrive so soon.” Xu You said.
“I didn’t expect them to arrive so soon, but it doesn’t matter anymore. What matters is how we defend against them!”
“Us?”
“That’s right, we are the ones who are too powerful. We must work together to resist the Calamity Legion. Otherwise, our natives and your migrants will be destroyed by the calamity!” Emperor William said.
Hearing Emperor William’s words, Xu You felt much more relieved. What he meant by “we” was that NPCs would also help players defend the city. However, Emperor William’s words also answered him. Yes, the NPC would also help the players defend the city. That player’s chances of successfully defending the city were much higher! In fact, it’s only natural that the NPC will help.
Xu You paused for a moment and smiled. “We migrants should do our best. But why did you call me here? You should know that I can’t order all the migrants by myself.”
“Don’t worry, I didn’t mean for you to order the migrants. I came here to find out about your strength.”
“But why are you looking for me?”
“Because you are the most powerful migrator in Sunrise City!”
Hearing this, Xu You straightened his back. What a big hat, but he accepted it!
