Methods of Each City
Through his conversation with Wudou Meina, Gu Xi learned some information and unspoken rules about the city.
These are things that could not be recorded or reflected in normal information when he entered this world.
For example, Gu Xi always felt that the Heavenly Dao White-Robed Great Guanyin was watching him.
This wasn't actually an illusion; it was just that Gu Xi had been paying attention to the location of the Great Guanyin, which caused the Great Guanyin to react. After all, the strange thing about this world is that if you don't pay attention to it, it won't see you.
It was precisely because of Gu Xi's attention that the Great Guanyin was able to spare a little attention for him.
This was only Gu Xi didn't make a move during the day. If Gu Xi had acted casually, Great Guanyin might have already struck him down with a palm.
It can be said that Gu Xi being targeted by Great Guanyin was entirely his own doing.
There were also battles during the day.
The strange creatures only appear during the day, and they actually fight with mortals.
If your fight is secretive enough that no one discovers it, then it doesn't count as a fight.
Just like when Gu Xi used the Mind Nether Lamp on the train, it fell under this rule; if no one noticed, it wouldn't be considered an attack.
Many exorcists like to secretly lurk in dark alleys during the day and ambush any strange creatures that pass by.
However, compared to the daytime situation, Wudou Meina is not very familiar with the situation at night.
The only thing that is known is that every night, her guesthouse will turn into a castle, the flowers and trees planted outside will turn into city walls, and five hundred Stone Man will guard the city walls.
With her limited military strength, she could only defend herself at best, and could not expand her control any further.
Because he hadn't directly witnessed the situation at night, Gu Xi couldn't imagine what a chaotic nighttime battle in the Warring States period would be like; he could only glean some general information from Wudou Meina's description.
Just as Gu Xi was planning to rest for a while and wait until night to deal with the chaotic war situation in the Warring States period, Wudou Meina suddenly looked out the window.
"My God, who is that person?"
Gu Xi quickly stood by the window and discovered that someone was climbing the Heavenly Dao White-Robed Great Guanyin.
"Those lunatics."
Gu Xi immediately recognized the identities of the people climbing the Great Guanyin Statue; they were Order Mage from Autumn Wind City.
As Order Mage, they are most knowledgeable about the supernatural, so they naturally set their sights on the most fundamental supernatural phenomenon in this world.
The level 20 Heavenly Dao White-Robed Great Guanyin.
As long as they can capture this Great Guanyin Statue, or even without capturing it, as long as they can borrow a portion of its power, they will be invincible in this White Great Guanyin Statue Bailian Grand Ceremony.
We can't let them succeed so easily.
A thought flashed through Gu Xi's mind.
"Mei Nai, I have something to do outside. I'll be back before dinner tonight."
"Etc."
Wudou Meina grabbed Gu Xi.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Xi glanced at Wudou Meina with curiosity.
"Never wander around outside at the cusp of day and night. It's better to come back later when it's completely dark. If you can't find a taxi after dark, just wave down one of those horse-drawn carriages with White Lantern."
Never ride in a carriage with lanterns of other colors.
Also, take this with you, otherwise you won't be able to get in the house at night.
As she spoke, Wudou Meina handed Gu Xi a red wooden board with the word "Passage" written on it.
[You have obtained the Wudou Family Passage Amulet. With this talisman, you may freely enter and exit all rooms in the Wudou Family.]
"Okay, I understand."
Gu Xi turned around and walked out of the guesthouse.
Walking down the street, Gu Xi walked quickly while thinking about how to make a move.
Forcibly running over to stop them is definitely not an option.
All players are hiding their identities right now; jumping out at this time would just make them easy targets.
Gu Xi did not rule out the possibility that these players who challenged the Heavenly Dao White-Robed Great Guanyin were bait pushed out by other players in Autumn Wind City.
So it's necessary to rush over, but only a fool would rush forward to stop or sabotage.
He had to come up with a solution and see if there were any other ideas to deal with these players who jumped the highest.
Just as Gu Xi was on his way, a message suddenly popped up in front of him.
[Bailian City's Wu Hetong violated the rules and was judged to have cheated, thus being removed from the Points Ranking.]
Gu Xi paused for a moment, then looked up at the Heavenly Dao White-Robed Great Guanyin.
He noticed that each of the climbing players was surrounded by four ghostly figures resembling Hanging Ghost Ghost.
These Ghost don't attack you; they just surround you.
Wu Hetong is the master of these Ghost. Instead of using the undead in the Soldier Token, he mobilized his own subordinates. This naturally violated the ridiculous rules that Bailian City had drastically changed this year, and he lost the opportunity to rank in the points.
But he didn't care about any of that.
Wu Hetong is now just waiting for the Heavenly Dao White-Robed Great Guanyin to see these Ghost and determine that he and these players are in a daytime battle.
Once this judgment is made, Wu Hetong will immediately crush the prop in his hand to surrender and be sent away from this world.
Once he got back, he could brag to his guild leader that he had taken on five players from Autumn Wind City single-handedly.
Given the nature of their guild leaders, they will most likely compensate him for his losses and offer him some additional benefits.
Although he couldn't complete the other tasks, this one was safe.
Moreover, he didn't bring in Soldier Token, so the rankings were irrelevant to him from the start. It would have been much better if he had just stayed outside and watched the show, peacefully enjoying his title as Hero.
Wu Hetong was unaware that when he made his move, several necromancer players nearby were lamenting how someone else had snatched such a good opportunity from them.
At the same time, Wu Hetong also noticed that the Heavenly Dao White-Robed Great Guanyin had opened its eyes, slowly lowered its head, and looked at what was happening in front of it.
The sudden appearance of the undead was a provocation to him, but what about the people surrounded by the Ghost? Why were they hanging motionless in mid-air?
In fact, the Heavenly Dao White-Robed Great Guanyin did not understand that these five people did not want to move, but that all their paths were now blocked by the Ghost.
They will encounter Ghost if they move even slightly.
The Ghost will then automatically determine that they have launched an attack.
If they don't move, they still have a chance to wait for the Heavenly Dao White-Robed Great Guanyin to take action and eliminate the Ghost and the necromancer who released Ghost.
If anything happens, the names of those five people will be among those eliminated.
But Wu Hetong has risked his life for this, and now these guys can't hide.
He tightened his grip on the prop and shouted, "Ghost, make a face!"
All the Ghost stared at the players with dead fish eyes.
Finally, one player couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Get out of my way!"
The other players immediately began attacking in all directions, shouting as they attacked, "We are the supernatural! We are the supernatural!"
