For the River Styx, everyone has a very undesirable misconception, thinking that there is only one River Styx, which is also the first reaction when everyone sees the river in front of them, thinking that it is the so-called River Styx. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"We are now on the banks of the first branch of the River Styx, the Akeron."

"Wait, Goddess, you say this is the 'first branch'? The first tributary? Coke chicken wings feel that she has bad ears, how can she know every word of what Ye Ran said separately, but when they are together, they don't know the point?

"Yes, the first branch of the River Styx, you don't think that the river in front of you is the so-called River Styx, do you?" Ye Ran didn't pretend to be cold in front of the acquaintances who came back to the storm, and naturally said more than in front of outsiders, not to mention that now Long Che and Lu Qi were not there, and the work in charge of the explanation naturally fell on her and Qi Moyan's heads, and Qi Moyan, who came to the underworld for the first time, was naturally not as familiar with this place as she was, so she didn't mind wasting more words to give everyone a little more knowledge popularization.

"Acheron, the first branch of the River Styx, the 'River of Grudges' in the backstory of Greek mythology, and Charon will be the only ferryman to be able to travel through the various tributaries of the River Styx." Qi Moyan recalled the introduction of the River Styx in his mind, and found that the space was pitiful, and there was very little ink about this Charon.

"If you want to cross the River Styx, you must first pay for the ferry." Ye Ran said the method of the legendary Styx, Charon is greedy for money, which is well known in the underworld, in the previous life Charon was an NPC, responsible for collecting all kinds of ferry fees, some players wanted to take the overlord ship, and the end was almost unexpectedly thrown into Akeron, not to mention losing a small life in vain, and could not enter the underworld within a week.

"Ferry? Is it money? This Charon won't collect dark money, right? "I always feel that the underworld is different from other places, and it should not be popular to use universal coins.

"You think too much, this is a game, naturally it's game currency." Ye Ran smiled and stepped forward to talk to Charon, who had already landed.

"Mr. Charon, my friend and I want to take a boat to the underworld." Ye Ran's unspoken words were the only "official language" that could get the qualification to get on the boat in his previous life, and it was the key to pay a certain amount of game currency if he wanted to get on the boat, but he also had to point out the real name of the ferryman, otherwise even if you paid the money, you would be thrown into the river by the other party when crossing the river.

"Oh? There are living people who want to enter the underworld? Charon slowly raised his head to reveal an old face, "Let me see, it turns out to be the inheritor of Hermes, no wonder." ”

Ye Ran didn't dodge at all when she looked at those cloudy but unusually sharp eyes, she knew Charon's temperament, this was a yin and yang weird old man, if it didn't suit him, he wouldn't give half a cent of thin noodles, even if he crossed the river Styx for thousands of years, and even Hades's account would not be sold.

"Yes."

"60 people, 6,000 gold."

Charon's offer made the rest of the people breathe, 6000 gold, not to mention anything else, is a lot of money for any player, although the elite members of the resurgence are not unable to take it, but it still hurts.

"Hey, I said—"

"Okay, Mr. Charon," Ye Ran hurriedly interrupted the words of protest without a shadow, and handed the six thousand gold coins directly to Charon without hesitation, and then glanced at the others warningly, signaling none of them to talk too much, "This is the ferry capital, please count." ”

Charon didn't seem to hear the protest of the shadowless just now, and stretched out his right hand like an old tree trunk to take the heavy bag of gold coins: "The inheritor of Hermes is really refreshing. ”

Ding~ Charon's opinion of you +20.

At this point, Ye Ran quietly breathed a sigh of relief, joking, almost ruined a big thing under the "sabotage" of other people who didn't know, if he couldn't get Charon's favor before getting on the boat, then the whole voyage was scared, if he was lucky, he would cross the river safely, and if he was unlucky, he would not escape the fate of being thrown into the river.

Charon proudly pouted at Ye Ran and the others, motioned for them to get on the boat, and glanced at Qi Moyan, Ye Ran took the lead in getting on the boat, Charon's ferry boat was not so much a boat as a huge banana leaf, without a mast, if you stand too far to the side, it is likely to fall into the river when the hull is bumpy, and everyone who knows this is naturally very conscious of standing in the middle of the boat, waiting for the last person to step on the boat, Charon did not have the slightest notice, and directly supported the boat into Akeron.

"This Charon still doesn't accept bargaining?" Qi Moyan, who possessed the Spirit Rhino Ring, spoke to her in a voice that only he and Ye Ran could hear.

"Well," Ye Ran, who also used his heart, confirmed Qi Moyan's guess, "In the underworld, Charon only recognizes money, if we accidentally disagree with him just now, not only will the ferry not be less, but it is very likely that he will be thrown into the river on the way." ”

"This ship can take us directly to the underworld?"

"Yes! Took us past Akeron, Cosets, Churipulugdon and Styx. ”

There was not much conversation between the people in the boat, that was because Qi Moyan had told everyone to keep silent on the guild channel before, this Charon was obviously a difficult object to provoke, especially now that they were on the ferry, they were like grasshoppers on a rope, and they couldn't tolerate the courage to pull teeth out of the tiger's mouth.

Charon's ferry traveled much faster than expected, and in a short time it was out of the waters of the tributary of Akeron, and the surrounding scene began to rise from the surface of the river that was as calm as a stagnant water, and the sound resembled the cry of a human.

"Cosettes, the river of lamentations, was formed by the tears shed by the hard labor of the convicts who served, hence the name." Ye Ran's timely commentary on the guild channel dispelled the speculation in everyone's hearts, so even when he heard the more and more clear sorrow, he no longer panicked, in order to ensure the composure of the others, Ye Ran continued, "The third tributary after that, Churi Pulugton, is a river of fire, very hot, but it will not hurt the people on the ferry, you can rest assured, the last one is the Styx River, when you see the flowers on the other side of the bank, you are already not far from the land of the underworld, and the last tributary is the famous Lethe. ”

Although Ye Ran's explanation is simple, it directly tells the main characteristics of the four major tributaries of the River Styx, in fact, it is the same as in the previous life, as long as you pay the ferry fee happily, then there will be no danger and obstacle when passing through these four tributaries, and Ye Ran, who knows this well, naturally paid the gold coins to Charon very boldly before, and her refreshment made Charon's good opinion of her only high, you know, it is not easy to get Charon's permanent favorability, In the previous life, Ziye Dye paid nearly 10,000 gold before and after to get 5 points of Charon's favor, and this time he added 20 points at once, which is really a dream and a laughing thing.

As Ye Ran introduced before, the situation of Qiu Liplegton and Stix after that did not make everyone have any surprised expressions, and even Charon felt incredible, this group of seemingly weak living people didn't expect to be so courageous, but they didn't know that Ye Ran had already given a "preventive shot" in private, so it is not unreasonable to say that NPCs are not as good as players in terms of communication and communication.

When Charon's ferry docked on the shore, a group of people disembarked one after another, and as the last person to disembark, Ye Ran politely saluted Charon: "Thank you, Your Excellency Charon." ”

Ding~ Charon is good for you +30.

It's really an unexpected joy, Ye Ran remembered that the player with the highest favorability of Charon in his previous life was only 15 points, but he didn't expect that this time he had 50 favorability points without intention.

"Inheritor of Hermes, when you go to the underworld, remember to meet your mentor when you have time." Charon didn't have any task tips after saying this, but Ye Ran had an intuition, there must be some mystery about this, wasn't her mentor Hermes? Hermes, known as the "Guide Messenger of the Underworld", is one of the few living people who are allowed to enter and exit the underworld, and it seems that this time she can finally meet her, and sure enough, there are still many surprises on the trip to the underworld.

After the group landed on the shore, they bypassed a flower bush on the other side, although the enchanting flower on the other side was very beautiful, it had a sense of horror, making people involuntarily want to keep their distance, and their behavior also made Ye Ran too lazy to remind, that's right, the flower on the other side is untouchable, once touched, it will be charmed, and the mind will be empty, and even die.

Leaving behind a large area of flowers on the other side, a solemn city finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes, the city gate was wide open, and there were not even any guards at the gate, but the ghosts who came in and out seemed to be supervised, orderly, and did not push each other at all.

"This is the main city of the underworld." Ye Ran introduced to everyone, "It is also the location of Hades, after entering this place, everyone must be careful not to fall behind, this is like a hidden copy, and it has to be pushed level by level." ”

What Ye Ran didn't say explicitly is that there are 3 levels in the main city of the underworld, which are the corresponding bosses Pandora, the queen of the underworld Persephone and the Hades Hades.

"Dye, you don't seem to be in a hurry to enter the city?" Qi Moyan said Ye Ran's plan in her heart, and she found that she was not in a hurry to enter the main city of the underworld, but was looking around.

"Everyone will be here for the time being today, let's go offline first, otherwise your physical strength will not be enough to last until the end of the dungeon."

Ye Ran didn't remind him, but when he reminded everyone, he found that his physical strength had reached the red cordon, what was going on? Thinking back to the way, they just knocked down a Cerberus, and there was no large-scale battle, why did their stamina deplete so quickly?

"Even if you are not engaged in a fierce battle when crossing the River Styx, your stamina will drop rapidly, and the speed will be as much as 5 times that of the usual, so if you don't have enough stamina, even if you pay the ferry fee, your stamina will be empty and you will fall into the river when you are sailing." Ye Ran answered everyone's questions, "I haven't entered the dungeon yet, I'll go offline here, 12 hours later, that is, at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, we will gather, don't be late." ”

A group of people saw that their physical strength was red, and they said goodbye to the original underground line, and Ye Ran, who was not busy leaving the game after sending the others, pulled Qi Moyan to a hidden mountain road next to the main city, that's right! She had been prompted by Charon to meet her legendary mentor, Hermes! (To be continued.) )
