Chapter 97: Didn’t suffer

July 19, 2023Ai Hrist

These low-level talent patrolling NPCs, the skill attack power used by them was not very strong, and the control time was also very short, Lu Jiu and the others can handle it for the time being.

What was more unexpected was that these NPCs were now attacking indiscriminately. Whether they were residents of Dragon Flood City or outsiders, they were treated in the same way.

That was beating.

Because they were all being beaten, Lu Jiu and Zhuang Yun were able to cope.

The residents of Dragon Flood City who were also beaten were very depressed.

“Hey! We were forced to join the battle, why do you also beat us!”

“We are residents of Dragon Flood City, don’t hit us, I haven’t had time to replenish my HP!”

However, the NPC said: [You don’t listen, you don’t listen!]

Anyway, everyone has to be beaten.

Shen Jufeng pulled out a beautiful sword flower and fought against the previous NPC who also used a sword.

He has to say that the NPC’s weapons were very good. Even if it was a low-level NPC, it will not lose the wind when it was slashed with the bronze-level weapon in Shen Jufeng’s hand.

Lu Jiu mainly dealt with an archer NPC whose bows and arrows have a stunning effect. She was shot by the NPC several times and could not move once the effect was triggered. Fortunately, the control time was very short, less than a second.

Zhuang Yun’s giant sword was becoming more and more imposing. Compared with the discord when using the giant sword at the beginning, it looks much more pleasing to the eye now.

But NPCs were just NPCs. They can’t see attributes such as HP when fighting with them. It was just a battle, but she felt it was an endless fight.

When He Ange came back, he saw the scuffle in the city. He was familiar with the ordinary members of his team, but he was surprised when he saw the other three.

That was the outsider who came to Dragon Flood City before. Especially Lu Jiu, who led the way when he went to Xuantian City with other city lords. He didn’t expect her to come here again today and directly fought with the NPCs of his city-state.

He was slightly annoyed and shouted: “Okay! Stop it!”

The patrolling NPCs followed the instructions of the city lord and stopped their attacks, and Lu Jiu and the others followed suit.

It seems that the city lord came back.

He Ange walked over with a sullen face, and the other team members realized that something happened in the city.

Seeing that all the members of his team were covered with red flags, but Lu Jiu and the others didn’t see any distress, their mood suddenly became even more depressed.

“Before, I had a relationship with the three of you. Especially you, Miss Lu, why come to my city-state and make trouble.”

This was to blame Lu Jiu and others, without asking what his team members had done at all.

Lu Jiu put away her weapon, and said calmly, “It’s just a misunderstanding. We didn’t know that the stall in Dragon Flood City had to buy it after asking the price. The price is still expensive, and I can’t afford it. The stall owner thinks we are looking for trouble on purpose, so he wants to fight. But we can’t just stand still and be beaten.”

He Ange understood what was going on. Some of his subordinates did do this, but when conflicts broke out in the city at the beginning, there were several such disputes.

Nowadays, Lu Jiu and others were regarded as fat sheep. His team members wanted to slaughter them, but they didn’t expect to kick the iron plate.

He Ange didn’t feel guilty at all. He only curved the corners of his mouth and put on a gentle gesture: “Since it’s a misunderstanding, let’s talk about it. Anyway, in the city, the city-state has a ban on fighting, and they can’t do it.”

Lu Jiu’s acting skills also went online, covered her mouth deliberately, and exclaimed: “But that person said he is working under the city lord, so he has every reason and qualification to say that we are making trouble on purpose. If he wants the NPC to clean us up, we can only fight.”

The corner of He Ange’s mouth twitched. His team members seemed to need to be disciplined, but he couldn’t get angry with them in front of outsiders.

On the other hand, Lu Jiu continued to ask: “City Lord He’s subordinates have such great power, can they arrest whoever they want?”

How can he answer? He can only shake his head: “How is it possible, the NPCs in the city only listen to me.”

Lu Jiu finally showed her original expression: “It turns out to be a fox pretending to be a tiger, and he is simply bluffing us. We are timid, otherwise, we wouldn’t do it.”

And the big guy who started it had already gone somewhere and was frightened by Shen Jufeng.

The corner of He Ange’s mouth twitched. She said they were timid. If they were timid, how can they fight against the forces of a city lord?

He thought so in my heart, but he had to say polite words: “It’s because I’m not strict with my subordinates, but they were beaten too. I’ll treat a few of you to dinner, and pretend that nothing happened.”

Lu Jiu and the others just showed meaningful smiles. He Ange wanted to skip this matter so casually, and he really could say it.

Lu Jiu said: “No need, actually I just wanted to see what’s going on in Jinghe District. I just came to Dragon Flood City and wanted to take a stroll. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen. Like City Lord, He said, I also fought. Since it’s a misunderstanding, then we’ll go first.”

Anyway, there was nothing worth buying in this poor place, even if they go to other city-states, they may not be able to buy it.

He Ange was still thick-skinned, and slightly blocked the way of the three of them: “Since we meet again, it’s fate, just give me a face and have a meal, let’s make friends.”

The frivolity of what he said was disgusting, and Lu Jiu couldn’t control her hardened fists. She still remembered how this guy had the cheek to ask her about the drugstore NPC.

Then Ange wanted to reach out to pat Lu Jiu’s shoulder while speaking, but Shen Ju blocked the pig’s trotter with his strong hand, and said flatly: “Just talk, no need to move your hands or feet.”

Beside Zhuang Yun also stared at the group of people with a defensive face, holding the giant sword tightly in his hand.

The City Lord whose hand was treated as pig’s trotters felt embarrassed. His subordinates were all around him. This was the first time he was slapped in the face like this.

He Ange withdrew his hand with a gloomy face, and looked at Shen Jufeng with malicious intentions in his eyes: “Since you don’t want to, forget it.”

Lu Jiu heaved a sigh of relief. If this guy’s pig’s trotter dared to touch her, she couldn’t guarantee that she wouldn’t violently slap him.

“See you then.” Never again!

The three left gracefully, and He Ange’s subordinates couldn’t hold back and asked: “Boss, they are so shameless, and they cause trouble in our Dragon Flood City, why don’t we cooperate with patrolling NPCs to kill them?”

Although their members were wrong about what happened today, the three of them were too arrogant to dare to do something in the city, and they still don’t give a face to the city lord.

He Ange looked up and glanced at his subordinate: “It’s better to have one less enemy than have another one. The most important thing now is to collect resources and make winter equipment.”

The men could only nod their heads. Now the weather was getting colder and colder. Even though it was still autumn, it was like winter. They have too few warm clothes.

If there don’t have enough supplies, they can only stay at home burning firewood the whole winter.

And Lu Jiu was not easy to mess with. The things in Xuantian City were so good, and their equipment was better than theirs from the beginning.

“But boss, we don’t have enough firewood. There are three months in the whole winter. If we burn firewood non-stop for a day, the current collection can only take less than one and a half months.”

This was what he collected by himself. He doesn’t know how much firewood other teammates have.

Some people feel dissatisfied when they think of this: “The group of ordinary people collected so much firewood desperately before, but they didn’t sell any of it. I want to see if the beast tide comes, will this group of people die holding the firewood?”

This man said with a distorted expression on his face. He looked down on the ordinary residents extremely, thinking that these people were ants, and only by relying on them can they survive.
