The sky in the game has darkened significantly, and Wu Xiao looked at the time, and sure enough, it was already more than seven o'clock. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Walking on the flat white stone road of the spring city, while stretching my limbs, I took the time to look back, thinking about it was really a very rich day.

Because of the physical strength supplement in the game and the nutrient solution in the game warehouse, there is no hunger, and everyone seems to have a tacit understanding at this point, and no one proposed to go offline for lunch, so it is estimated that they are all prepared.

Just as Wu Xiao was considering whether to go offline for dinner, Chen Xiao's communication arrived in time.

"Wu Xiao, go offline to eat, Mom and Dad are back."

"I'll ask, it's still in the squad."

It seems that the only way to try skills is to put it on the back burner.

Just walking in front of the Spring City Hotel, Wu Xiao looked at the waves walking on the side, and hesitantly put forward his situation: "Waves, matcha, I have dinner at home, do you want to do the task first?" ”

"Is it already this time?" Wave looked at the sky that was sinking in the west and only a bleak afterglow, turned his head and asked matcha, "What about you, matcha?" ”

"Huh? Dinner? Matcha paused, "Are you going to eat?" I'm casual, otherwise I'll ask them about boiled water first? ”

Wave Lan nodded, and wrapped his hands around the staff: "You ask, although the nutrient solution is convenient, it is still necessary to eat on time." ”

"Okay." Matcha started to contact, and after a few words, there was a reply, "They said yes, let's go to dinner together and meet at the hotel." Ah, here it is. ”

"Okay, let's go to the hotel and open a room first."

Wave stretched his waist and released his exhaustion, which was very natural.

Matcha was a little curious: "Why do you want to go to the hotel to open a room just for a meal?" ”

"It seems that we can't finish these tasks in the spring today, and there are storage boxes in the hotel room, so you can store some items temporarily."

"I'll be right here." After Wu Xiao and Chen Xiao finished speaking, they noticed Bo Lan's words, "This is quite convenient, so what time will you see you?" ”

"How's eight?" Wave proposed.

"Okay."

"No problem~"

Quickly completed the entry procedures and went offline, Wu Xiao unexpectedly saw Chen Xiao with a "why did you come out" expression behind the door of the game warehouse.

"Hurry up and eat, I want to try my new skills." Wu Xiao ruthlessly pushed Chen Xiao away, "How many levels are you?" ”

"Twenty years old."

"So fast?!"

"Yes, it's just that the leaderboard hasn't been opened yet, so I don't know how high the level is."

"The leaderboard should be open soon, and we'll know when the time comes. It doesn't feel much taller than you. ”

"It's hard to say, I haven't been in the main city for a long time, and there are already a lot of people. It's you, hurry up, otherwise it's not good to brush those difficult elite bosses. ”

"Alas, I'm a little powerless now, and I'm a little embarrassed to fight high-level monsters."

"When you get up the level, you can go and refresh the dungeon. Seriously, there's a lot of interesting stuff in the main city, so you'll have to check it out. ”

Wu Xiao raised her eyebrows: "Really? ”

"There's no water at all, and the main city will begin to come into contact with the temple, that is, the creationist background of the elements, as well as the king's official position, and I feel that the game content is much richer all of a sudden. By the way, I can start a guild now, or can we build one of our own? Didn't you break up when your feelings faded before? ”

"Who said that the relationship is weak, we are fine, but we haven't contacted each other yet."

"Come on, it's been a long time since you've been in touch."

Wu Xiao carefully calculated the time when he last contacted his friends, and suddenly felt embarrassed, and sure enough, because of his long time in the game, his contact with his friends was much weaker.

"Okay, I know you haven't been in touch for a long time, don't forget it. Or is that question, do you think we should build our own guild to play? ”

"Just you? Have you done your usual things well? Didn't you say you were going to help your dad with things? Guild this, I promised my friends to go into their guild, do you want to come with us? ”

"Yes, it's not the one who has been doing tasks with you. Dad, I'm really helping, but you, you don't usually care about me, haven't you noticed? ”

Wu Xiaohui pulled out the chair and sat down with an indifferent face, after all, he was eating with his parents, so he thoughtfully staggered the topic.

Quickly solved, Wu Xiao and Chen Xiao walked back to the bedroom together, and naturally talked about games on the way.

"When you joined the mage, did any NPC tell you that you would go to the mentor to learn by yourself in the future?" Because matcha and Chen Xiao are both rare element affinities, Wu Xiao is naturally curious about this.

"Yes, it feels like a lot of trouble. I did the first post-entry advanced mission of the Career Guild, and I was exposed to several skills, none of which were very strong. Or rather, it didn't go so well. ”

"It would be better for you to use your mental power to control it directly, right?"

"Yes, it's true that it will be more flexible than system skills, but I think there should be more powerful system skills, or more practical ones that fit the spatial elements."

"Come on." Wu Xiao suddenly thought that she had an NPC like Alisian as her backing, and estimated that her skill acquisition would be very convenient outside of the professional guild.

Because of the thought of Alisian, Wuxiao further thought of the props that Alisian gave and what she said.

"By the way, the Alysian of our Dark Clan that I told you may have clues from the Space Master, and I will help you ask if I have the opportunity to go back?"

"I can't ask for it."

Noting that he wanted to help Chen Xiao ask about it, Wu Xiao looked at the contents of the package first when he went online again.

Sake.

This is the Life Skill quest item that Dorik, the dwarf of the Dark Colony, has given them.

Brewing is a skill that is different from cooking and sewing, it doesn't produce results right away, and it's the same as reality, brewing takes time and waits.

However, it is clear that it takes much less time.

Sake, for example, takes only one day, or 24 hours.

However, compared to the timely effectiveness of other life skills, the problem of waiting for brewing still discourages many players.

Although Doric gave them simple brewing tools, and even a rudimentary thermostatic furnace inside, there was one big problem in brewing that could not be ignored - space.

It can be placed directly in the package, but it is also necessary to wrap the grid in normal battles, and for brewing, different types of wine require different temperatures and humidity environments, which means that it is likely to occupy a single grid.

If you don't feel anything at first, you will gradually fall into the dilemma of not having enough packages when your skill level increases and your skill map becomes more. At this point, a large enough space is needed for the brewing operation.

Guild lands are the best option in the early stages, and if you can buy a house later, you will have more freedom and privacy.

Either way, if you don't solve the space problem, you won't be able to improve the brewing grade for a long time.

This is a life skill that takes a lot of time and patience.

Wuxiao is still a few hours away from harvesting, and Wave is brewing for the first time with her, and the time should be the same.

But Chen Xiao's matter is not something that needs to be answered immediately, so she is not in a hurry, thinking that she will go back in a few days, and she can also find the mysterious merchant by the way.

It's better to hurry up and do the task now.

Out of the room and into the hall, Wu Xiao saw a wave of dazzling white hair at a glance, sitting in a corner of the hall silently tasting something.

The first floor of the hotel is an ordinary dining room, where many players sit down to eat, and the waves are alone, looking a little deserted and out of place.

Sitting down on the stool opposite Wave, Wuxiao and Wave's slightly surprised eyes met.

"Won't wait for me for the second meal?" Wu Xiao quipped, "Or are you thinking about life?" ”

"You've found out." Wave Lan put down the cup in his hand and showed a smile, "Why did you come back so quickly?" ”

"Come up after eating, aren't you faster than me?"

Wu Xiao's gaze fell on the rippling cup, and the clear liquid inside glowed a sweet purple red in the transparent ceramic cup.

Bo Lan followed Wu Xiao's gaze, instantly understood her curiosity, and pointed to the clay pot on the table: "This is one of the characteristics of Spring City, red jade sweet wine, would you like a glass?" ”

"Okay. You seem to be interested in this category? Wu Xiao took the cup handed by Bo Lan and poured a full cup for her.

"The wine, the food and the scenery are of course to be enjoyed. But if you drink too much in this game, you'll get drunk, so be careful. ”

"This, red jade liqueur, delicious! It's also a shame that you can find it. ”

The sweet flavor fills the mouth with a rich fruity aroma, and the wine is not so strong that you can't help but want to taste it again.

Like Doric's new brew, the Ruby Liqueur, which is a liquor, also gives her a buff: 20 HP and 20 mana per second per second in non-combat mode, 100 points each for increasing health and maximum mana, and 10 points each for improving Constitution and Spirit. Lasts half an hour.

"Every city will have some special products, wine and food should be the most intuitive. This should be a little easter egg of the game, which is very interesting. ”

"Have you arrived? It's early! Twenty minutes until eight o'clock. Sitting down with the voice was matcha.

Wu Xiao drank the sweet wine in the cup in one go, licked the residual taste of wine on his lips, and beckoned to matcha: "Almost, I just came up, by the way, let Bo Lan pour a glass of sweet wine for you to taste." ”

"Matcha here, you should like the taste."

"Huh? Alcohol? Matcha took the cup, undisguised curiosity on her face.

"It's okay, even people who have never drunk before won't get drunk with a drink." Wu Xiao roughly estimated, and handed the cup to Bo Lan by the way, "Another cup." ”

After tasting it, the matcha was amazed by the new discovery: "It turns out that drinking alcohol can add effect?" ”

"Yes, in general, a lot of high-quality food has this effect. However, even ordinary beginner varieties of alcohol can provide buffs, which is still very kind. ”

"Is that so? Do we usually have to buy more wine in our bags? ”

"If you like it, you can buy more and save it, just for the effect, you can buy it in most cities."

"This dessert wine is very good, where can I buy it?"

Wu Xiao couldn't help but pause when she heard the question of matcha, and she couldn't help but sip lightly while holding the wine glass, after all, she also wanted to know.

"That's it, just go find an NPC and buy it." Wave raised his hand and pointed to the counter in the hall, where the NPCs in the inn were smiling and entertaining.

"I'll go over for a moment." Wu Xiao decisively put down the cup, "Do you want matcha?" What about you? ”

"Help me bring ...... Two copies? Trouble! ”

"I've bought it, so you can buy your own."

"Okay."

The price of red jade liqueur is not expensive, and according to Bo Lan, it is indeed very kind.

Wu Xiao simply bought a set of 20 bottles, turned around and came back, just in time to see boiled water and yellow peach mango walking in.

Sharing this gracious power-up, they walked out of the hotel and discussed the future arrangements by the way.

"Finish Ados's quest first and then go to the main story, right?" Bai Kaishui walked in front, turned his head and asked the three people behind.

"Okay, I'm fine, but do you have any clues about Mark?" As the captain, Bo Lan naturally played the most reliable role.

Bai Kaishui nodded and responded: "Yes, when I was doing the entry task, I happened to go to the library of the spring time, and I heard that Mark would often be there, but I didn't meet it when I went." ”

"In that case, then let's go to the library first, and if Mark isn't there, let's do the main story first."

Everyone agreed.

The library of Harutoki Castle is made of large white stones, and even at night you can feel its faint glow in the moonlight and lights.

The entrance is a crisp and neat circular arrangement, and the bookshelves are densely stacked around to form concentric circles. At this time, there were basically only a few people in the library, quiet and mysterious.

"There's a lot of floors here, and it's a bit of a hassle to know which floor Mark will be on."

"It's okay, let's separate and find it slowly."

Wu Xiao is in charge of the top floor, the waves are on the third floor, matcha goes to the second floor, and boiled water and yellow peach are in charge of the bottom and largest first floor.

"It's a safe zone, there's no danger, you go."

The consolation of the waves came at the right time.

Wu Xiao looked at the spiraling stairs, but she didn't have any nervousness or fear, but she was very interested in this subtle concern: "Well, I'll come down to you later." ”

The library was still well lit, with many small white balls with a soft glow dotted on the walls and handrails of the stairs, and the white stones on the roof formed various delicate shapes, and the halo of light spread down comfortably without dazzling.

There aren't many tasks to do in the library, but the library has a rich collection of books that can be read, not only including a lot of real-life classics, although most of them are Western literature, but also a large number of books with game backstories and content introductions, which are placed on the shelves in different categories.

If you have time, it's a good idea to come to the library to learn about the world.

It's really a thousand miles away from home.

Wu Xiao walked through the neatly arranged bookshelves, and his eyes lingered on various books such as "Hundred Years of History", "Elemental History", and "The Story of the Emperor".

It's a pity that now is not the time to read a book, otherwise it would be interesting to understand the setting of this game.

Because the stairs came along the wall, Wu Xiao actually walked from the periphery to the center step by step, walking and walking, Wu Xiao's mood was unusually calm, not only his breathing was smooth, but even his steps were silent.

In such a quiet environment, the rustle of flipping books became clearer as the footsteps approached.

Someone?

Wu Xiao instinctively thought it was another player, and the next second immediately reacted - it was the old man Mark they had been looking for.

Bypassing this bookshelf, sure enough, an NPC with a white hair in the image of a standard wise old man appeared in front of him.

The old man Mark leaned leisurely on the edge of the thick brown and black wooden bookshelf, and the soft white light was projected on his body, with a sense of sacredness. A hard-shelled thick book was held in his hand, like the closest lover, and the slow turning was so careful.

"Mark is on the top floor, come here, I'm in the center."

It's a squad channel, and as long as the squad doesn't disband, you can receive it.

"Okay." The first to reply was the waves.

"Right away." This is followed by plain water.

"I'm coming." Matcha's reply was a beat slower, and Wu Xiao estimated that she would switch the squad channel if she found it.

Following Mark's example, Wu Xiao also chose a relaxed posture and leaned on the bookshelf, where he could clearly feel the edges and roundness of the book shell, which seemed to be carefully maintained.

She didn't bother with Mark's gentle gesture now.

Waves turned the bookshelf, and the first thing that greeted her was a leisurely fog dawn, with her back to him, covered with a thin halo on her body, demure and silent, and her graceful figure outlined by the gray-white cloth armor blouse and muslin trousers. A head of silky black hair was draped over his shoulders and slid to the side with the movements of his master.

"You're here."

Wu Xiao heard the sound of footsteps, turned his head sideways to look in the direction of the sound, and sure enough, he saw the waves.

The delicate and white neck was revealed from behind the hair, and the beautiful and delicate face was slightly hazy, and the breathing was slightly sluggish.

But he quickly adjusted: "Well, didn't you go to talk?" ”

"The quest items aren't with me." Wu Xiao spread his hands. Although it is a Platoon Mission, the key mission items are only in the Captain's bag.

"Yes, let's wait for them to come up and open it."

Wu Xiao replied softly.

The atmosphere was suddenly a little ambiguous, his eyes turned around, and he opened his mouth to find a topic: "By the way, last time I asked the radish to add you, did he add it?" ”

"Radish ......" Wu Xiao smiled a little, "It's been added, but I haven't spoken yet, what's wrong?" ”

"He's 20 years old, and he's doing guild building missions in the main city now, and he'll come to you in a while."

Although Bo Lan knew the personality of his friend for many years, he still couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"By the way, if you have any friends to join, we're more than welcome."

"Speaking of which, I really have one to join."

"Okay, what's your friend ID? I let the turnips go and add them. ”

"Look at the flowers in the fog, I'll talk to him."

Wave nodded, Wu Xiao could see his lips moving, but he couldn't hear the sound, it seemed to be communicating.

Seeing this, Wu Xiao also connected to Chen Xiao's communication and informed him in advance.

"What are you doing here?" The sound of matcha came from behind.

"Waiting for us to do the task, of course." Boiled water and yellow peach walked behind the matcha, and it was lively for a moment.

"Now that everyone is ready, then I'll start the mission."

Wu Xiao leaned slightly sideways, close to the bookshelf, and made way for the waves.

"Hello, Mr. Mark."

"Is it an explorer, since you can find me, you must have something you want to ask, say, I'll listen." Mark closed the book with a smile, not forgetting to tuck in a light green bookmark.

"When we went to punish the leader of the thieves, Ados, we found this cobblestone, because there are many strange things about Ados's recent actions, so I want to ask you what this is? Does it have anything to do with his recent behavior? ”

"This stone...... Take it for me to see. When Mark saw the stone that Wave had taken out, his brows tightened, and his expression suddenly became cautious.

"This is the cornerstone of a long-abandoned temple in the forest. You said you found it in Ados? ”

"Yes."

"You're saying he's been acting strangely lately? Talk to me about it. ”

Wave explained it this way.

"Going to the forest a lot, with animals? The power of the forest ......"

"Did you think of anything?"

"I remember, that temple in the forest, there are many mysterious legends, it has been entrenched here for thousands of years, and the answer you are looking for may have something to do with it."

"A temple in the forest? But as far as we know, weren't all temples built in the center of the town? ”

"Yes, rather, the town is built around the temple as the center. But I don't know what started, in the forest and some hidden places, some nameless temples suddenly appeared, I don't know who built them, I don't know what gods are enshrined, although the king and the holy priests have teamed up to send a lot of people to investigate and clean up, but overnight, these strange nameless temples suddenly disappeared again. ”

"How can there be such a thing?"

"Although there were no reports of their reappearance for a long time after that, it is said that anyone who is guilty of great sin and whose heart is full of evil thoughts will be summoned by these temples. But did anyone really enter these temples in later years? What are the secrets of these temples? If someone did go in, what happened to them? Nobody knows. ”

"And how did you know that this stone is the cornerstone of the temple?"

"For I had seen the temple for sure, but unfortunately it was ruined and there was no living creature in it. Explorers, this is a mystery that has haunted us for years, and although many people have forgotten it in the baptism of time, I still remember it. There are no books that record the details of this incident, which is really a great omission and regret of history. ”

"Since you've seen that temple, why don't you fill in the void yourself?"

"Because I was rejected by it, even though I had walked into it up close, I didn't get anything. After that serendipitous discovery, I went into the forest several times to look for its traces, but never saw any trace of it again. ”

"Rejected?" Wu Xiao was a little surprised and couldn't help but come up.

"That's right. I don't know why I was admitted to it back then, or why I was rejected by it later, but I can be sure that this is not my delusion. If you want to know more about that temple, you must first get its approval. Since you're going to investigate, can you help me get information about it? I've been curious for so many years, and there is very little information elsewhere, and I hope you can bring some good news. ”

"Of course, it is our pleasure to complete this part of the information. But how to get in, I'm afraid that's the first problem we have to solve. ”

"Well...... Indeed......" Mark fell into deep thought.
