Chapter XXIII
The night was deep.
Outside the window was the vast sea rippling under the starlight, the sound of the waves was slowly undulating like hypnosis, and the night in the window sat back in a chair, nibbling on the bread with cheese in his hand, while reading the letter sent by the librarian Adrian.
[There is another young man missing in the town today, his name is Joyce.] 】
The letter contained the original manuscript and a note, and the first sentence on the note aroused the interest of the night, and she involuntarily sat up, and quickly scanned through it at a glance.
[This is the nineteenth person who has mysteriously disappeared in the past two months, causing panic in the town, and all kinds of rumors are spreading rapidly.
Sheriff Werther sent someone to search the entire precinct, but still did not find the slightest useful clue, and finally in desperation, came to my door for advice, but I was only a magician in his old age, and my mind was already dull, even if I wanted to help him, I was not able to do so.
Welter found nothing with me, and left disappointed, and I, as usual, put on my cloak and went for a walk on the beach.
Along the way, I was distraught with this mysterious disappearance, and before I knew it, I deviated from my usual walking route, until I saw the abandoned lighthouse standing on the reef in the distance, and I realized that I was on the wrong path.
When I got home from my walk, it was already dark, and as I sat in front of the fireplace, I was still thinking about it, and suddenly I remembered that the lighthouse was a good place for Tibetans, so I sent a message to Werther.
The messenger soon returned, telling me that Welt had searched the lighthouse a long time ago, but for some reason, I was still vaguely uneasy.
Many years ago, my teacher told me that as a magician, I should trust my unusual hunch, and I decided to wait until dawn to see for myself in the lighthouse. 】
The information on the note has ended here, but there seems to be a word on the back of the paper, and the night turned over and looked at it, and found that it was the information that Adrian kindly checked for her, and the information showed that there was a tidal town near the sea in the southwest of the Solan continent, and the name of the sheriff in the town was Werther, and the famous magician Audlan at that time also lived there in seclusion in his later years.
In this case, the person who wrote this manuscript should be the magician Odran......
Night continued to read thoughtfully, and saw that Adrian had attached a small request to the back of the information, saying that after translating this manuscript, he had become interested in this mysterious disappearance case that happened many years ago, and hoped that if she had the opportunity to go to Tidal Town in the future, she would investigate it by the way, of course, it would be better if she could collect this manuscript, and he would be happy to translate it for her again.
This request is a task!
But how many years have passed? It must be difficult to investigate, and it is even more difficult to collect the manuscript fragments that I don't know how many there are and where they are scattered! The only thing that comforts Nightlight is to know that this is a game, and that the tasks in the game should be completed, as long as she follows the prompts and takes her time......
After eating the rest of the bread in three or two bites, Night checked the map and found that Tidetown was quite far away from Isedan, and there was no magic teleportation array there, so she didn't want to make a special trip, so she threw the original manuscript and notes back into her backpack, planning to do what Adrian said, and when she had the opportunity to go to Tidetown one day, she would investigate by the way.
Lying on the table and looking at the sea under the starry sky at night for a while, the night took out the three alchemy recipes that I bought today.
These three formulas are the Powerful Healing Potion Formula, the Powerful Mana Potion Formula, and the Elementary Agility Potion Formula that she wanted to buy last time but didn't buy, which are not unusual, so the price is relatively cheap, one formula is only about 5 gold, but she just learned to use the herbs she collected in the past two days.
Alchemy is a thing that requires patience, otherwise the failure rate is very high, the night has already sharpened the stoic and resolute heart in the last days, of course, there is no problem in patience, so the success rate of her alchemy has almost reached 80%, it took an hour, not only did she make a lot of potions, but also the proficiency of alchemy rose to 100 points.
However, there were still leftover herbs in her backpack, just bits and pieces, and she couldn't make up a complete dosage of the formula, so she suddenly had an idea, and thought of the description of her self-created potion recipe in the online game novel she had read, so she simply put together the rest of the herbs and refined them together.
Outcome......
The result was tragic!
She didn't hear the system's wonderful success prompt, but heard a loud "bump"! The crystal bottle in her hand suddenly exploded, and it also blew up half of her health, making her secretly warn herself after a false alarm, don't do this kind of opportunistic thing in the future, otherwise the potion will not be refined, but she will have to take a life first.
Trivial things take up a lot of time to do, and when she lies on the bed at night, it is already ten o'clock in the night, but she can't sleep for a while, so she casually dragged the guild information panel in front of her and looked at it carefully.
Speaking of which, this is the first time she has carefully studied this information since joining the guild, and found that after joining the guild, she did get a lot of benefits that the jumping zongzi talked about, such as a 5% increase in experience and coins obtained when leveling up, a 5% increase in the movement speed of mounts, a 5% increase in the success rate of professional skills, and a 5% price discount when trading with NPCs......
Of course, if there are benefits, you must have a contribution, and the gold coins obtained when leveling up will be directly withdrawn by the system by 10% and transferred to the guild funds, which is considered a mandatory due, and this part of the contribution will not produce guild contribution value, and the guild contribution value can only be obtained by participating in guild activities through guò, or donating items and gold coins to the guild warehouse.
After reading these at night, I looked at the guild warehouse directory again, and found that the items in it all need to be exchanged for huàn with guild contribution points, except that there is no need to pay a handling fee, in fact, it is no different from the auction house in the city, and there are no good goods in the guild warehouse at present, not to mention that there are only a few skill books, and they are all not used by her, and even the materials are the lowest level......
In the end, I was still tired, and when I looked at the night, my eyelids gradually sank, and I fell asleep unconsciously with the sound of waves outside the window.
I don't know how long she slept, she was dreaming that she was back in the end times, struggling to survive surrounded by a large number of alien insects, when she was awakened by a voice -
"Player Hyakki sent you a private chat invitation, do you accept it?"
The invitation panel, which emits a faint white glow, is silently suspended in mid-air.
The night took a deep breath before reaching out and touching the word "accept" on the invitation panel.
The invitation panel suddenly flew into a point of light and disappeared in the darkness, and then she heard the hurried voice of the hundred ghosts: "Brush the dragon! Night, hurry up and go to the canyon of sighs!"
I just woke up, and suddenly heard such a sentence, and the night was still a little unresponsive: "Dragon?"
"You can open the guild channel and take a look, I'll call to inform the evil heart, and I'll contact you later. After the hundred ghosts finished speaking, they hung up the private chat.
The night looked at the time, 4:20 in the morning.
It would be the darkest time before dawn, but she didn't have time to think about it, so she opened the guild channel first according to what the hundred ghosts said, but a loud voice rushed into her ears, almost stunned her, and she quickly turned off the voice and dragged out of the text display window.
Cat Xiaoduo: Meow! The world boss has been brushed! Why aren't the two presidents online?
Yun Lan suffered: It's unlucky, it's not good to brush it, but it's just brushed in the place where the birds don't lay eggs in the Sigh Canyon, and there is not even a magic teleportation array, do you want to run over on two legs?
Dandan: What about the management personnel? Are there any management personnel in the guild who are online? I don't dare to move when I'm hiding here, you guys hurry up and organize people to come and kill them, and if you delay a little longer, the other guilds will find out!
The guild channel is now in control mode, so you can say it privately. Next, I want to emphasize two points,First,No one is allowed to spread the matter of the world boss refresh to the players who are not in this guild,Once you find that someone deliberately leaks the news,Kick out of the guild immediately!Second,This guild activity,Online members are not allowed to be absent,Give me the fastest speed to rush to the canyon of sighs,If anyone doesn't go,Find out afterwards,Deduct 100 guild contribution points!
I'm also a manager, and I've rushed to the Canyon of Sighs, and everyone is gathered at coordinates 374:102 to form a team!
……
The night finally understood what was going on.
She doesn't have any rejection of this kind of meaningful guild activity, and besides, the hundred ghosts are so anxious to notify her, and the players in the guild are so nervous, it can be seen that the world boss of this refresh is very important, no matter whether you can grab it or not, you can also know more about the game if you rush over to see it, so she didn't waste time, and quickly checked the location of the sigh canyon, and quickly went out.
The Canyon of Sighs is located in the southernmost part of the Solan Continent, close to the Sunken Bay, and it can be said that it is very far away from Isedan, even if there is a mount, it is a matter of life if you want to run there in one go! Of course, the night will not hear people say that there is no magic teleportation array over there, so it is really stupid to run directly over.
She first rushed to the magic teleportation array outside the city, bought a teleportation crystal, and then transferred it six or seven times in stages, teleporting herself to the sunken bay.
The distance from the sunken bay to the canyon of sighs was close, but even so, she rode Xiao Hei and ran for more than ten minutes before she ran to the entrance of the canyon of sighs, and then before she had time to catch her breath, she unexpectedly found that there were more than a dozen tall and handsome non-human players with long pointed ears gathered not far in front of her-
They seem to be elven players from the Hill Continent across the sea!
