Chapter Forty-Nine: Dress's Diary
Maybe it's because I'm not used to coming to a new city, or maybe it's because Qin Ling is about to leave, Annie's mood is not very high, or even a little low.
"Anne, you can live here in peace, and your uncle will come to see you whenever he has time. There are two hundred gold coins here, and you can buy it directly if you want to eat something, you don't need to save, and your uncle is not short of money. Qin Ling rubbed Annie's head, his face full of pampering.
"Uncle, can you take me on an adventure?" Anne said suddenly.
Qin Ling was stunned for a moment, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "Not yet, when you grow up, your uncle will take you on an adventure." ”
"Really?" Anne's eyes were full of anticipation.
"Of course it's true, all you have to do now is live here, and if you want to go out and have fun, you can also take a walk around the city." Qin Ling said with a smile.
Perhaps it was Qin Ling's affirmative answer, and Anne also seemed a little excited.
In fact, Qin Ling also sighed in his heart, Anne was just an NPC, if he went out on an adventure with himself, if he accidentally died, he might really die. When he said this, he was just comforting her.
At this time, Qin Ling's ears also heard a system prompt sound.
"Ding......
"Congratulations on raising your friendship with Anne to Reverence, Anne becoming your follower, optionally a pet, and not being punished by NPCs for death."
"Ding......
"Annie's future mission is complete, and she will receive a reward: optional pet."
"Pets? Won't be punished by death? Qin Ling muttered to himself, then sneered.
Although Anne is just an NPC, she is also a person! Treat her like a pet? How can it be!
It would be absolutely impossible for Qin Ling to take Anne as a pet! If it were an NPC that was not humanoid, Qin Ling might think about it, but how could such a cute little girl as Anne be a pet?!
After decisively throwing this idea away, Qin Ling said goodbye to Annie.
Although he thinks that the little girl is very similar to his sister, after all, he can't spend all his time with Anne.
He still has a task to complete!
Walking on the streets of Tianfeng City, Qin Ling also opened another diary of Dress, which recorded the cause of the death of Fin's bride.
Since it is a diary, the records in some places are not very detailed, and after a general look, Qin Ling also has a general understanding of the reason why Fen Erluo was targeted.
That's right, the death of Fen'erluo's bride was not directed at her, but at Fen'erluo himself.
"As one of the members of the Royal Knights of Cloud Thunder City, I was summoned by Lord Luo Cheng today. It is said that an undead creature has infiltrated into Cloud Thunder City, and it needs to be checked strictly, and the undead creature that infiltrated into the city can be found as soon as possible, and it will be killed! ”
"Today, the people of our Royal Knights were summoned by Lord Luo to meet with a hundred people, saying that they have found the location of the undead creatures. But when I learned the identity of the undead banshee, I was also frightened. How could the bride of His Highness Fin's Fall be an undead banshee? She's so approachable, I've even met her up close. She also prayed for the blessings of our Knights, how could she be a necromancer? However, this is Lo's order to overcome the adult, and we need to catch her tomorrow. I hope that Luo's judgment is correct, and I hope that His Highness Fin'er Luo will forgive us! ”
"We have succeeded in capturing the bride of His Highness Fin'lfall, and although we can't bear it, it is also a foregone conclusion. His Highness Fin'er Luo did everything he could to defend it, but we still succeeded in it. The brothers suffered heavy casualties, and only a few survived, and I was one of the lucky ones, but did we really do the right thing? Why do you feel so sad in your heart? When I saw the loveless expression on Finfall's face, I could even feel my heart tingling. If my loved one were caught, or even executed, would I feel the same way? ”
"Today, the bride of His Highness Fin's Fall was secretly executed, and the only people who witnessed the process were Lord Lo and the few members of our surviving Knights. In order to avoid causing a commotion in Cloud Thunder City, the execution was carried out in secret. At the time of the execution, His Highness Finrlok also came. His choice was incomprehensible to me and unbelievable. Unexpectedly, he committed suicide after his bride was executed. But his last words, the last curse, are something we can't let go, is this really true? ”
"His Highness Fin'er Luo has committed suicide, and the new city lord is the one who will be Lord Lo. This is something we didn't expect, could this matter have something to do with the capture of His Highness Fin's bride? ”
"At noon today, Lord Luo took over the position of city lord, such a radiant and such a leader, what we did before should be right, right? Since we couldn't catch the bride of His Highness Fin'er Fall before, we were unusually promoted to his escort by Lord Luo Cheng, and this kind of honor really makes us quite excited. ”
At this point, and looking down, it seemed that it was a long time before Dresse began to write his diary again.
"A year has passed, and almost all of my brothers are dead. Most of the brothers who survived that incident were injured, and it was normal that there was not much time. But why did several brothers who were in good health and had no injuries also die one after another? And another was killed by an assassin in the city? Maybe it was just an accident. ”
"Today, I resigned from my position as the captain of Lord Lo's escort and chose to return to my original barracks. It's very familiar and comfortable to be back here again, maybe I should belong here, right? ”
"Your Highness Fin'l! I'm sorry for you! Today I happened to hear the drunken Lord Luo Cheng say that it was he who made a conspiracy against you for the sake of the superior lord! I'm a member of the Royal Knights, I! I'm sorry for you! I'll look into this matter and I'll do you justice! I'm going to get to the bottom of this! ”
The diary came to an abrupt end here, and there was no more writing after that.
But judging from the last diary, Delais, who learned the truth, was still very self-blaming, and it is estimated that he was also very excited at the time, and regretted what he did at the beginning.
Qin Ling didn't know what happened to the results of Dress's final investigation, but it was enough. The task given to him by Fen was to find the truth of the year, and although the truth is only half of the truth now, it should be enough.
Came to the gathering place of undead creatures outside Tianfeng City, in the two days that Qin Ling left, there were also some players who practiced here. After all, Qin Ling has not leveled up in the past two days, which does not mean that other players are also standing still.
Although leveling up here is still difficult, the wealth of experience is still very attractive.
Ignoring these players, Qin Ling found a direction where there was no one and began to clear a path towards the location inside the undead creatures, he was going to see the death knight Fen Erluo!
It may be that Fen Erluo sensed Qin Ling's arrival, and didn't let Qin Ling kill many monsters, so he saw him.
"Is there a result?" Fen said coldly.
Qin Ling didn't speak, and directly handed Dress's diary to Fen Erluo.
After reading the diary, a trace of anger appeared on Fen'erluo's originally cold face, and after the anger, it was longing, then sadness, and finally cold again.
"I chose to become a Death Knight just to find out the truth about that year! But after a lot of pain, I lost some of my memories, my kind, you helped me do this, and I have one last thing I want to ask of you. Death Knight Fen said without any expression on his face.
"What do you want me to do?" Qin Ling asked suspiciously.
Since the system does not prompt the task to be completed, there should be another process for this task.
Fen Erluo said directly: "Help me kill Luo over!" ”
"Me! Depend on! Are you going to play me to death? That's the lord of Cloud Thunder City now, not to mention how many guards there are around him, even the position of the lord himself, I'm afraid it's also a combat power, right? I've just reached level 22! That lord can't be a level 60 boss? And he is a lord, so he is definitely a lord-level boss, how could I kill him? ”
Listening to Qin Ling's indignant words, Fen Er said lightly: "I didn't let you kill him personally, he is mine, and no one can rob him." I'm the only one who can kill him! ”
Hearing this, Qin Ling also breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he didn't let himself go hard. Of course, even if he wants to work hard, he has to have this qualification. He is only a rookie in his twenties, how can he kill a lord-level boss?
Besides, I'm afraid there are other hidden secrets in this mission!
Then, Fen Erluo took out a small black ring from his arms, handed it to Qin Ling, and said, "This is the death teleportation array made by the necromancer, you stay in Cloud Thunder City, and I will go over it myself." ”
Looking at the small ring in his hand, Qin Ling was also stunned for a moment. This ring looks very weird, although it is just a ring, but it is depicted with some extremely mysterious lines and handwriting, Qin Ling didn't understand any of them. But judging from the breath coming from above, it should also be something of an undead creature.
"Necromancers can also make teleportation arrays? Will I be able to do it in the future? Qin Ling touched his chin and said.
At this time, the system prompt also came.
"Ding......
"Please bring the death teleportation array of the death knight Fen Erluo's to Cloud Thunder City."
"You're going to Cloud Thunder City again? My two thousand gold coins! Qin Ling wanted to cry a little without tears, originally he still had more than 10,000 gold coins, but because of the teleportation back and forth, his current gold coins had bottomed out.
