"Ahem, what's that, although we took the benefits of Ichiro, but the task you gave us is a little too difficult, right? As you just said, although the northern witch is disabled, it doesn't have much impact on her casting spells, so her combat power is still directly full, but she has no possibility of escaping after we get close, so if the three of us don't want to go back to Osaka with one or two less, or if we can't go back to any of them, then we have only one way left, that is, to sneak attack the northern witch, only the kind that can succeed and not fail. Zhang Jingxu said with a frown.

At this time, Yin En also stood up very tacitly, and said with a smile: "That's right, it is definitely impossible for us to contain the Northern Witch, because no one wants to be a moving target, and of course, more importantly, other members of the public faction will not let the Northern Witch act alone, so there will definitely be bodyguards by the side of the Northern Witch, so the success rate of our sneak attack is not high, and it is possible that stealing chickens will not be successful." ”

Before Liu Xing could also stand up and say a few words, Ichiro took the lead and said: "What you said is right, it is not easy to contain or sneak attack the witches of the northern border, and the reward I gave you before does not seem to be enough now, because I didn't expect that the public faction would send so many good hands to capture that bear monster, so I thought at first that you only need to deal with some ordinary members." ”

Speaking of this, Ichiro took out a small cloth bag from his pocket, which looked a lot like the wallet that held metal currency in ancient times.

And the sound of metal colliding in this small cloth bag also made Liu Xing more sure that this should be a wallet, and it should contain a lot of coins.

"Oh, Ichiro, are you trying to hire us for money? But even if the coins in your pocket are made of gold, they are not worth a few dollars, and you should know that the last thing you need is money. Liu Xing said.

Ichiro nodded and replied seriously: "That's right, ordinary gold coins, even those ancient gold coins with collectible value, can't be sold for a price that can hire you in such a bag, so the coins in this bag have other uses." ”

As he spoke, Ichiro took out three coins from his cloth bag, which looked like they were gold, silver, and bronze, and they looked like they were some years old.

But what makes Liu Xing a little incomprehensible is that there is a layer of water vapor on the surface of these three coins, which makes the patterns on the surface of the coins look a little blurry, so that Liu Xing always feels that he can determine what the patterns on the coins are in the next second, but this next second will always be in the next second.

However, Liu Xing can be sure that the patterns on these three coins should be different.

Just when Liu Xing was staring at the three coins carefully, Zhang Jingxu and Yin En both frowned, looked at each other with some confusion, and then after glancing at each other, the two sides nodded in unison.

"These three coins, along with the six remaining coins in my pocket, were dug out of a long-abandoned underground base in a big operation carried out by our Strange Talk Association a year ago, which was originally a refuge for a certain family, but this family was defeated because of a ruined family, and it was already in the middle of the family decades ago, and the family members also went their separate ways, so this underground base was scrapped directly due to lack of maintenance, However, a few mythical creatures later made this place their home and hid a lot of mess in it. ”

"Our original goal was to kill those mythical creatures, because these mythical creatures have become urban legends in several nearby cities, very terrifying, so we do this for the heavens, as for the things in their hands naturally have to belong to us, because we have no credit and hard work, but when we were looking for something to use, we accidentally caused an explosion, and after the explosion we found these coins, a total of thousands of coins were found, So after that, anyone who becomes an official member of the Strange Tales will receive three gold, silver and bronze coins, and of course this is also because these coins are very useful. ”

"As you can see now, there will always be a kind of water vapor on these coins, so we can't see what kind of pattern these coins are, so at the beginning we didn't determine how to use these coins and what they do, so we simply took a few coins and carried them with us, and soon found out the effect of these coins, simply put, these coins have many different effects, among which gold coins have the best effect, and copper coins have the weakest effect. The known effects are Warning, Shield, Teleportation and Barter, and these coins turn into a normal wordless coin when used. ”

"As the name suggests, the meaning of the warning means that before the danger occurs, this coin will make you suddenly realize that something is wrong one to three seconds in advance, and the shield is to generate a shield when you are attacked, as for the protection ability, you can refer to civilian body armor, police body armor and military body armor respectively; As for teleportation, when you are attacked, let you teleport directly out of the attack range, but the teleportation of copper coins is uncontrollable, and the maximum distance is about five meters, while gold coins can allow you to teleport to any place within ten meters, and the final barter is that you can use this coin to unconditionally exchange what they have with anyone, here it depends on how resistant the trader is to the transaction. ”

After listening to Ichiro's explanation, Liu Xing's eyes couldn't help but light up, because the four known effects of these coins are very useful, and there may be other effects.

"This is the legendary Destiny Coin, right?"

Zhang Jingxu said suddenly: "I once heard of this kind of coin, according to legend, it was minted by a certain civilization tens of thousands of years ago, because the top combat power of this civilization are magicians, so they attached some common spells to the various coins they carried with them, so that they could quickly use these spells when necessary, but this civilization was finally destroyed by those mythical creatures and the rulers of the old days, so these coins became cultural relics, sleeping under the ground all over the world; But if I'm not mistaken, while 90 percent of coins have a positive effect, 10 percent of them hurt the user, such as if a bolt of lightning cleared, or the coin turned into a fireball, or simply petrified the user's body that had come into contact with the coin. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Jingxu squinted his eyes and said to Ichiro: "So, is your luck so good?" So far, the only possibility that has not yet reached this success? ”

Ichiro nodded without hesitation, and said with some rejoicing: "I see, it seems that the luck of our strange talk club is really good, so far we have used nearly two hundred coins, and we have never encountered that ten percent probability, but there are still a few official members of our strange talk club who have accidents or disappeared with those coins, so we don't rule out that these official members are very unlucky, and there is a probability of encountering that ten percent." ”

"It seems that your luck in the Strange Talk Club is really good, although this is said to be a 10% probability, but because the number of these coins is too much, the number of coins I know alone has exceeded 100,000, so these ten percent is at least 10,000 coins with negative effects, so your Strange Talk Club will definitely be tricked, and you have used more than 200 coins with positive effects, which means that these nine coins in your pocket are likely to harm us." Zhang Jingxu said with a serious face.

Liu Xing always felt that something was wrong, and felt that Zhang Jingxu was planning to swindle some more benefits from Ichiro.

Ichiro was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "This friend, you should also know that our strange talk club has requirements for the academic qualifications of regular members, although some of the official members only graduated from high school, but most of the official members have a full-time college degree, and I am one of them, so my math level should be pretty good, so the probability question you raised is sophistry, unless you can guarantee that every coin unearthed in each place will have ten percent negative effects." ”

Zhang Jingxu shrugged his shoulders, shook his head and said: "Of course, I can't guarantee this, but the probability of this is more than seventy percent, because according to the research of relevant personnel, although those coins with negative effects look exactly the same as those with positive effects, but after careful inspection, one problem can still be found, that is, those coins with negative effects are made at the same point in time, Coins with positive effects span two to three hundred years in production time, and almost all of them were made earlier than those with negative effects. ”

Hearing Zhang Jingxu say this, Ichiro's expression became serious again, "Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to issue additional currency indefinitely, especially when using metal currency, because metal currency is not easy to be damaged, so the amount of currency in the market will be maintained in a certain range, and these coins should also assume a certain function in addition to self-defense, otherwise those magicians can use better materials to make more convenient magic props, Therefore, there are only two possibilities for these coins that appeared on a large scale at the end of that civilization, and all of them have negative effects! ”

At this time, Yin En couldn't help but continue: "The first possibility is that the magicians of that civilization found that their enemies also noticed the usefulness of these coins, so they began to treat them in the same way, so the magicians who suffered the loss of their own coins thought of a good way, that is, to make these coins with negative effects as sugar-coated cannonballs, forcing the enemy to either give up using these coins, or risk their own bad luck to continue using these coins." ”

"And the second possibility, which Zhang Jingxu thinks, is that after this civilization is destroyed, its enemies or other passers-by will come idle after getting these coins." It's funny to think about watching others suddenly give him a slap in the face when they are complacent about getting something useful, and I am of course the same as Zhang Jingxu, and I am also inclined to think that the second possibility is more reliable, because although the first possibility seems more reasonable, the civilization at that time should have been defeated, and these coins with negative effects cannot play a role in turning defeat into victory. ”

Liu Xingshen nodded approvingly and said: "I think so too, because the effect on these coins is actually not too powerful, so these coins can also be used to deal with some shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and when encountering an opponent of the level of the Patrol Yaksha, it can only be said that it is better than nothing." ”

Ichiro was stunned by what Liu Xing and the three said, and after a while, he said a little reluctantly: "Maybe what you said also has some truth, but in the end, there are still more coins with positive effects, so the advantages of you taking these coins outweigh the disadvantages, not to mention that our strange talk is not as big as your Sawada family, and I can't give you more good things, but I can give you something in my personal name." ”

Ichiro solemnly took off a necklace from his neck, but the color of the necklace turned out to be green, which looked a little plastic.

If it weren't for Liu Xing and the others knowing that it was impossible for Ichiro to deceive himself with a plastic toy, I'm afraid Liu Xing would have to ask Ichiro what this means now.

"Don't look at this necklace as a plastic toy... Although when I bought it and gave it to my table mate when I was in elementary school, I thought it was just an ordinary plastic toy, but fortunately I was rejected by my table mate at that time, otherwise I would not have been able to stand in front of you, because my brother and I were attacked by a human-faced mouse in the commission of promotion to full membership, and as a result, when the claws of this human-faced mouse touched this necklace, it was directly wiped out, because this necklace has the effect of breaking spells. Ichiro said with a serious face.

Liu Xing was stunned for a moment, and then asked with some confusion: "Well, I have two questions for you, the first question is can this necklace only crack the spells it touches?" Or is there a crack range? The second question is how do you keep the toy necklace you bought in elementary school and still wear it? ”
