Chapter 10: The Cage! Beginners
Leaving the treehouse of Windray, they found Doric sleeping in the dwarven house. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The two of them stood in front of the blazing fireplace, looking at Doric lying in a "big" shape with black lines on his head, and several wine jugs were thrown crookedly on the side, and the smell of wine made people blush.
Wave crouched down and nudged the dwarf who was blowing snot bubbles from his sleep. I saw that his body trembled, and there was no sign of waking up, but the snoring was louder.
Wu Xiao snorted, stretched out his staff and stabbed it, but it was not light. Seeing Doric's movement, Wu Xiao quickly put away his staff and hid behind him.
Although he was a little annoyed by the disturbance of the two uninvited guests, after hearing the intention, Doric immediately changed his attitude: "Mrs. Tops asked you to come, say hello to her on my behalf, and by the way, ask her if she wants to taste the new wine." ”
"Do you know how to make wine?" It was the waves who asked him, and he seemed to be very interested in it.
"Yes, explorer, don't think I'm only a forger just because I'm a dwarf, our one has no less crafting skills than goblins." Doric looked very proud, "If you're interested, I can give you two glasses of our new brew." ”
"That's hard to ask for, please."
Doric jumped up from the ground with joy, and walked to the inner room with still somewhat drunken steps, and in a few moments he came out with two wooden cups.
"Come and try it."
Wu Xiao and Wave Lan thanked each other and took the cup. Before you even taste it, there is already a strong aroma of wine, some pungent but not irritating, the amber wine is clear and attractive, and the long fragrance after the mouth spreads in the mouth and nose, which is a very suitable wine for women.
A cup of belly, very enjoyable. Wu Xiao took a sip of wine, satisfied.
Even better than the wonderful taste is the state brought by this glass of wine: 20 health and mana per second in non-combat state, 200 points each of increased health and maximum mana, and 10 points each of spirit and agility. Lasts half an hour.
Wu Xiao became more and more satisfied.
"It's wonderful! I really admire your winemaking skills, I wonder if I have the privilege to learn brewing from you? ”
"Oh my friend! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. If you want to learn how to brew with me, help me collect some fresh red mulberry berries and red mulberry honey, which you can find in the nearby forest. ”
It wasn't until he left Doric that Wave said, "This mission can be done alone, I can wait until you are asleep before doing it." ”
Wu Xiao shook his head: "It's okay, anyway, if I meet it, I'll learn it, and I don't have too many life skills." ”
"Alright, let's finish the current mission related to Mrs. Tuoth first, and I guess the follow-up mission will go to the Dark Forest."
After coveting a handful of rewards exchanged for points in the material supply station, the two of them found Mrs. Topros to hand over the task, and conveyed Doric's words by the way.
"Really? Then please help me go to Doric and bring one back. Speaking of him, you can learn from him how to brew, but you should need to do something for him first. Also, please bring him this Phnom Penh evening primrose for me as a thank you gift. ”
"Phnom Penh evening primrose?" Wu Xiao took it, looked at the slender and beautiful flowers in his hand and subconsciously asked.
"This plant obviously grows in a place where dark elements gather, but the whole plant is full of light elements and will not wither and disappear. In addition to Phnom Penh evening primrose, there is another silver-edged evening primrose, which grows in places where the dark element is thinner and contains less light element, so it is slightly inferior to the effect of Phnom Penh evening primrose. Because of its growth posture and incredible properties, evening primrose is also known as the flower of the gods, and it is one of the sacred objects. It has a very significant power of adjustment and support, and even items full of dark elements can be supplemented with evening primrose without half damage. It can be used for all kinds of work such as casting, medicine, sewing, cooking, fishing, winemaking, and of course, it is also extremely valuable just for viewing. ”
"Sounds amazing." Although Mrs. Tops said it was full of light elements, Misty Xiao didn't feel anything in her hand.
This plant has slender leaves, similar in shape to lily of the valley but slightly smaller, with one stem, four leaves and six flowers, one of which blooms the most delicately, and grows at the top, which is slightly larger than the other five, while the other five are ranked in the second and third numbers, but they are not much different from each other. Wu Xiao looked at it carefully, it was called Phnom Penh Evening Primrose, and sure enough, it was covered with golden light, divine radiance.
"Ahh That's right! Wu Xiao suddenly patted his head with his empty hand, "Is this the one in the garden?" ”
"Yes, that's them."
"The five flowers of evening primrose actually symbolize the main god and the five gods, the top one is the god of creation, the bottom is the two gods of life and elements, and finally the three gods of time, sin, and judgment. After all, evening primrose is life and has elements, so naturally we should respect the two gods of life elements. ”
Mrs. Tops slowly introduced the evening primrose, and there was motherly love in her eyebrows.
Since the NPC can be described in such detail, it shows that the Phnom Penh grass must be a very important material in the elements. And Mrs. Tops also said directly that this material can be used for all crafting life skills, so its role and value should not be underestimated.
It's a pity that Wuxiao and Wave Lan haven't learned any crafting skills now, so they can't check the materials needed for manufacturing. However, evening primrose will definitely be in demand in the near future.
Wu Xiao became more and more determined to complete the trial well, even if it was not for the sake of the camp, but also to consider the evening primrose everywhere in the garden.
"Thanks for the explanation, we're going to bring them to Doric."
"Children, when you come back, go to the Dark Forest to eliminate some red mulberry bees, it has been their breeding season recently, but this time there are too many of them, fifteen are enough."
"Okay, please wait."
The objectives of this mission are clearly linked. Instead of going to Doric first, Fog Xiao and Wave Lan went directly to the Dark Forest to find the Red Mulberry Bee.
Although the number of requests this time is not large, the tricky part is that the red mulberry bee can fly, has a high degree of agility and dexterity, and is very easy to hide in the night. Although there is a target locked, it often deviates.
"Do you have a slowdown in your water elemental skills?" Wu Xiao looked at another dark bullet miss, and had a headache.
Even if she can smash the dark bomb on the Red Mulberry Bee and disintegrate the dark element components of the Red Mulberry Bee, it will be very troublesome if the subsequent attack does not produce enough damage.
Although Wave Lan has been adding blood to her with water elemental skills, he is not a priest after all, and the amount of recovery is really a little stretched under the rapid attack of the red mulberry bee.
"Not now, if you drop an ice spell skill book now, you will have it." Seeing Wu Xiao's blood drop to the danger line, Bo Lan unhurriedly threw a water elemental recovery technique, without any nervousness at all, "Since you have been able to decompose, try to use the elemental confinement?" ”
Wu Xiao saw the right time, and a dark bomb flew over, accurately smashing on the red mulberry bee that was also bloody, chewing the word carefully in his mouth: "Confinement? ”
"Or block?" Wave sat on the ground, and the release of skills under high-intensity pressure was very tiring, "Actually, you have done it before." ”
Wu Xiao reacted.
yes, she did, didn't she? Just when they first fell into the deep hole. Use the continuous condensation and deconstruction of the elements to recreate an elemental environment, so that the amount of high concentrations slows down the rate at which they fall.
Wu Xiao stared at the other red mulberry bee flying in the distance, first released a dark bomb to attract its hatred, and then consciously released several dark bombs in turn towards the space near the red mulberry bee.
Wave Lan raised his head and observed Wu Xiao's movements with interest, with a slight appreciation in his heart.
Although the release of skills has a sequence due to skill CDs, the released elements successfully spread around the red mulberry bee according to Wu Xiao's expectations and plans.
Because of the sudden condensation of the elements, the red mulberry bee stagnated.
Inadequate! That's not enough!
Wu Xiao threw a few more dark bullets, and a "cage" made of heavy dark elements appeared in the darkness.
The red mulberry bee apparently noticed this strange thing that was hindering its movements, and began to become agitated, its wings flapping harder, and the buzzing sound was now getting more and more dull.
Wu Xiao observed cautiously, but was not in a hurry to make a move. Seeing that the red mulberry bee and the general trapped beast she expected appeared but couldn't break free, she neatly released an attack to solve it.
Wave recovered a little, got up and walked up to touch the corpse, and sure enough, red mulberry honey fell. As for the red mulberry berries, they are everywhere in the areas where the red mulberry bees appear, and he can pick the ones that are close to him, but the task requires fresh and tender red mulberry berries, so after picking, he has to pick them, and the remaining amount is used as food to restore his strength.
"It's a quick grasp." Bo Lan couldn't help but stuff a tender red mulberry berry into his mouth, and sure enough, it tasted better than ordinary ones, and the amount of recovery was more. Although Wu Xiao's consumption in this environment full of dark elements was extremely low, he was really still losing blood, not to mention his physical strength.
"Maybe I'm a genius." Wu Xiao grinned brightly.
"Okay, good, Your Royal Highness the Genius Princess, please hurry up and solve these task monsters, it's already past ten o'clock."
Wu Xiao raised her eyebrows, noncommittal. She also understood what the waves meant, and she really should speed up.
The two are responsible for fighting monsters and collecting them respectively, and their efficiency is also high. Although Wu Xiao's use of the cage technique will have a relatively high mana consumption, fortunately, the hit rate has almost increased to 100%, which is the same as when he fought indiscriminately before, so he doesn't feel difficult.
Although Doric didn't specify how much they wanted, thankfully the quest hint detailed that they wanted to take 10 portions each, so to be on the safe side, they planned to prepare a double amount first.
Wu Xiao compared the various task requirements up to now, and couldn't help but sigh - I don't know if she was too lucky or unlucky before, look at these tasks now, this is what a normal mission should be.
The night in the Dark Forest is silent but lively. The distribution of monsters of various levels is a paradise for levelers, but for the time being, no one seems to have gone deep into such a central place. With a few light sacs placed around, you can also see the nearby scene clearly, mainly to avoid encountering high-level monsters from behind the attack, but Wave has suffered this kind of hardship.
The silence of the night made the two of them a little nervous, because they didn't want to make trouble and met the requirements of the task, so the two hurriedly returned the same way.
Instead of sleeping this time, Doric sat on the small bench in front of the room, sipping with relish. Seeing Wu Xiao was a little envious.
"Explorer, did you bring what I wanted?" Doric saw them from afar.
"Hello, here are twenty servings of tender red mulberry berries and red mulberry honey, my friend and I would like to be able to learn the brewing technique from you, I don't know ......"
Doric waved his hand, his face flushed drunkenly: "Of course it's no problem, you have a heart." ”
Misty Dawn and Wave immediately hear a hint of Friendship reaching Friendliness, followed by a hint of brewing skill acquisition.
"Mistress Doric, this is the Phnom Penh Evening Primrose that Mrs. Tops has entrusted us with, and she says she is glad to have your new brew."
"Sure enough, it's the style of that Excellency, then I'll take it. This is for Her Excellency Thoth, so bring it to her. ”
Doric pulled out a white pot from behind him, which was delicate and beautiful, but ...... It's so big, it's almost half a cent.
"Hehe, don't be surprised, in addition to planting, Her Excellency Tops is also an admirable wine critic, and if she can get her approval, this batch of wine can also be sold for a good price."
"Sell? But Lord Dorric ......"
"You want to ask why we can still trade even though we are hiding in XC? In fact, every fifteen days, a mysterious merchant comes here, but he has signed an agreement with us that is approved by the creator god, and will undertake our trade with the outside world for the rest of his life. You know, although the Dark Forest is abundant, many things are still unobtainable. ”
"Where's the merchant? Can we buy items from him? ”
"Of course, but it's not time yet, and he'll be here in four days, and you'll see him when you go around the secret passage. Okay, if you make your first sake, bring it to me to taste. ”
Wu Xiao took a look, and sure enough, a new task appeared.
Bringing Doric's wine, Misty and Wave stood in front of the smiling Mrs. Tops again.
The rewards of the Doric series of quests are very good, not only allowing them to learn the skills of brewing, but also giving them basic brewing tools and some basic materials, as well as a lot of gold and experience.
However, the reward given by Mrs. Tops is really generous, and the Phnom Penh evening primrose in a group of each person is sincere enough, and as for the dozen or so gold coins given for each mission, it is even a little insufficient in comparison.
Wu Xiao is very much looking forward to the next mission.
