The Name of the No.1 (The story of Tai Shi Xi)

When I looked up, Black Lori's figure disappeared at the end of some corner again. I could only sigh and go on to chase after it.

This girl is nothing like her mother, the personality. No matter how poor and helpless she is, she will come up with all kinds of miracles to get out of trouble, and it will not attract any criticism related to her personal image, just like her title, the "miracle strategist".

...... Anyway, pretending to be weak and vulnerable to lure street hooligans and then rob them in return? This is a silly way to take a huge risk and not worth it, right? If it weren't for the demands of the mission and my respect to her mother, I would have had no interest in doing the job of protecting her.

Alas, today is the last day, it will be over soon, hold on ......

Then again, watching the girl's anti-robbery process and stopping the possible resistance at any time, this kind of task is really troublesome and uninteresting, even if it is going to be over, but there is not a bit of excitement. Alas ......

The second robbery ...... By convention it should be the last one today, right? Both of you, may your valuable experience of cheating kids be EXP for the future ......Then again, being cheated should not EXP, right?

Hey? There's another girl near to her? Well, her level is lower than me, but the Japanese sword is too eye-catching. I'd better go and have a look. Whether she is the "other side" or not, the killing ability of the Japanese sword, especially the assassination ability, is well known.

"Stop it, she's just a child!" The girl yelled, and the fat guy whose attention she had drawn was immediately stabbed by the girl. At this point, however, the young girl stopped, probably not knowing which side to help? ...... Seems neither, she threw the purse directly to Black Lori. This is an unusually solution, ah, if I had known I would have done that.

By the way, the girl's name is "White Moonlight", which matches with Black Lori's name, it would be fun if she became a man, and the two of them would fall in love.

Wait, this seems like a good idea?

"As Lord Tai Shi expected, this warrior is highly motivated and has started defending Her Highness." Chen Kang reported.

"It's because you giving them too much money," I replied.

"One thousand gold coins a day, that's a lot of money for a ronin, don't you see her eyes glowing green? By the way, send me some quests as well, I haven't touched a soldier's sword for a year and want to move around a bit."

Chen Kang thought for a moment and replied with a smile:

"There is really something suitable for you, there is a group of wild wolves in the mountains, northwest of the city, the leader seems to be an elite wolf demon, and has already lost several mercenaries, do you want to check it out?"

"Wolf demon? That’s interesting, I'll take it. Also, I said don't call me Lord, I stopped receiving military paycheck long ago." I replied as I walked out of the stronghold of Linglong Pavilion.

Can't you see that even my title has become "Former Captain of Prohibited Army "? However, he can't see the title, but he will remember that I once took him to beat the barbarians. They look ten times more like a human than me.

Out of the city you get to the game area. But a place like this doesn’t has much humanity, so I had to keep thinking that this was an online game that I couldn't escape from. The hints that I ignored before now had to be opened, there wasn't much on it.

Quest

Wolves in the Northwest Mountains

The Will of the Empress of the Former Dynasty (Appointed)

......

The previous mission is not really completed, so let's go see how well that White Moonlight is doing sometime. Now I have to go to the mountains in the northwest to fight the wolves first. By the way, I am not a Captain of Prohibited Army, I called out the white horse I'm used to ride, headed to the mission site. Speaking of which, since I was no longer a lieutenant of the forbidden army, I would not have a replacement horse of the same type if it died in the battle, which was really depressing. Wolves seem to be the best at hunting and killing horses, so should I consider to fight without a horse?

Review the basics while I was on my way. In this world, the city has the “aura”, which attracts demons and repels demons that are too powerful. As a result, a circle of beasts that grows stronger from the inside to the outside of the city will gather and need to be suppressed to keep the peace. In order to facilitate suppression quests and things like that, I even went to learn a little bit of the art of looking out, anyway, I have a dual career of warrior and Daoist. Oh, the display in the game system is not quite the same as my common sense, it's like this:

Taishi Xi, female, lv20 halberd ambassador, lv10 feather guest, neutral - free - leisurely - condescending - former forbidden army lieutenant - power of the green dragon - warrior girl

I didn't figure out what a feather guest is anyway, and I can't change my name like. I don't know how long it will take to cultivate until I can advance to the next level.

There is a small post at the foot of the hill, and I tethered my horse and rushed into the hill by myself, and a light wind blew up from my legs and quickly sent me up into the air.

After all, this is just a small hill, so it's not hard to fly up the hill.

By the way this move is a variation of the divine movement technique, which somehow managed to fly.

Where do creatures like wolves usually hide? I can only imagine a group of wolves resting in a circle on the prairie. The wolf on the mountain feels like it can only be a lone wolf, the kind that howls at the moon at night. If a group of wolves occupy a mountain, regardless of what they eat, entering the mountain will definitely make people hesitate, right?

The first thing that "welcomed" me when I entered the mountain was the monkeys, who threw a few rocks at me. But I was able to dodge all of them with shaking, which exposed their position. There are five monkey information in the forest in front of me, but they are all "monkey LV8" and other materials with little extra information, the monkeys are floating in the air in a row. There is no way to accurately aim the monkeys.

After all, the level 8 monkeys are actually roaming around the outer edge of the mountain, how strong are the wolf demons inside? It would be bad if we couldn't handle it.

The monkeys themselves aren't that hard to fight, you can run into them at a low height, and the level 20 oppression is completely unstoppable for ordinary animals. Even though they started to scatter and run away when I got closer, I still catched one of them, and although I didn't exactly hit it, but it still fell to the ground and couldn't move. Forget it, it's not interesting, let's find a wolf to fight.

There seems to be no tiger in this mountain, maybe it was eaten by wolves? But even birds and rodents are not seen much, it feels so unreal. Even if they are mostly low-level, is a mountain still a mountain without a few rodents and rabbits in it?

...... Well, I'm "in the mood" again. This is a game. But I'm almost at the top of the mountain and I still don't see the wolves. I see a hawk flying much higher than me ...... The wolves are coming down the mountain to find food? Where is the rule that bosses stay in the deepest place?

I'd better rest at the top of the hill, where there are no trees and it should be safer - as long as there's no second person falling from the sky. Well, I made sure there were no snakes here, so I'll be fine if I break a rock or two.

I saw the eagle again during the break, and it circled for a while before swooping off into some unknown direction, did it find a prey? To be honest, the eagle can probably grab a person with one claw, it’s better that I don’t piss them off.

There are no other large animals on the mountain except for the monkeys at the foot of the mountain, but I can see some squirrels, and there are snakes in the forest, but these are neutral creatures that will not be hostile if they are provoked, and they are not highlighted on the map.

Till the end of my rest, the top of the mountain was calm, which made me inexplicably a bit panicky: if it was so easy, what happened to all those mercenaries who died on the mountain? There should be experienced hunters among them, and if they found the wolves' habitat when they were out, even wolves of ten level will have to fall down ...... Although I haven't found the wolves' den, but if it's that easy to reach the top of the mountain, it won't be hard to rush to the wolves' den, right?

Is there some kind of trap around the wolf's den that can threaten the hunters even after the wolves are gone? In that case wouldn't these wolves be more cunning than people? ......But, Chen Kang did said that the head wolf might be a wolf demon, in that case being smarter than a human doesn't seem strange.

However, I can fly, and even if I can't fly high, I am confident that no one can catch me. Let's go straight to break the wolf's den.

First of all, I need to know where the wolf's den is ...... This is a simple question, I put my left halberd on the messy rock, and just let go of my hand to see which way it falls. The result is, in my 7 o'clock direction? If it was at 6 o'clock right behind me it would be a lot of fun, I might immediately surrounded by wolves.

I saw a few squirrels scattering away as I flew out, but I couldn't identify the critters once I speed up. Just looking for a wolf’s den does not need to observe the movements of small animals, there will always be wolves left behind or obvious traces. What's more, the little animals ran away when they saw me, and there was no reference value.

If I remember correctly, this is a side effect of the "Battle Princess" department's title, which comes with a haunting spirit or a murderous aura or something, even the average person will walk around me, and animals that are not vicious enough will not even dare to approach me. Sometimes it was quite convenient.

The 90% accuracy rate of wayfinding - something that actually exists in the skill list – it really works, and it didn't take long to find the cave occupied by the wolves, but this place is more like a rock gap or a rock crevice than a cave, or it’s just a narrow slit under the cliff, which no one could enter except the wolves. What's more, from the map, there is not a single wolf here.

It's better to take the initiative to find the wolves. Only, where could the wolves be? The wayfinding technique doesn't work on living things, so I can only guess.

Hanging in the air to think doesn't seem comfortable, so I first stood on a dead tree on the bluff and scanned my surroundings before continuing my inference.

If I think of it as ordinary wolves, a group of wolves must need a lot of food, there is not much big prey on the mountain, and there is a nest of snakes and rats, but it is not enough to feed the eagle.

If we think of it in a game mindset, this group of wolves are not staying at the top of the mountain nor at their den, then except for the possibility of setting traps and waiting for people to fall, we can only assume that they are not on the mountain at all.

If they are not on the mountain, they have to go down the mountain, but there should be stronger beasts on the side that face back to the capital, so they have to go towards the capital--

Oh no! There's a post at the foot of the mountain! And my horse is still over there!
