Chapter Seventy-Three: The Swift Sword of the Wind
"Arthur, you have revealed your identity in advance, and it will definitely affect your subsequent trials. If someone targets you, I'm afraid the plan won't go so smoothly..."
"Father! I think it's a little easier to get closer to Erin by doing so. What's more, in the face of absolute strength, no matter how many small means there are, it is useless. Do you think that I, who has awakened my family bloodline, is still an opponent in this Philip Academy? ”
"Don't underestimate the enemy! For example, at today's dinner, if you weren't too strong, you wouldn't have attracted that Raymond. ”
If Arthur hadn't resisted showing off his skills this time, and locked the match with Feron in advance with an overwhelming advantage, I am afraid that things would have been a different ending.
It's a pity that Arthur lost too high-profile, which led to Raymond being a true demon.
However, this was nothing more than an inconsequential potions contest in Arthur's eyes.
"Father, it's not that I'm jealous and deliberately targeted him, but that guy named Raymond does feel strange to me... It seems to be facing an old enemy like a vampire, and there is a natural disgust that makes me faintly unable to suppress the killing intent in my heart. ”
"Hmm. That kid gave me the same feeling. It may be a good thing to let him be exposed early this time. That kid is so close to Erin, maybe he has a lot to do with that high-level vampire. ”
"That's right! The Navy Headquarters will have a large-scale covert operation tonight, father, do you know? ”
"Yes, but I'm not going to be involved. My whereabouts can't be revealed for the time being, so be careful yourself. As long as we follow the plan, in ten days, this sea area will be the world of our Aum family. ”
No one noticed that the crowd of Aum Academy's entourage was mixed with a middle-aged man disguised as a gangster.
No one expected that Archduke Orm would surrender his identity and infiltrate Philip's collar in disguise.
......
Norton Street, a bar street.
Last time, the people of the Golden Tooth Pirate Diagram and the Giant Whale Chamber of Commerce made a lot of noise here, destroying half of the street. But before the half moon, the lively and prosperous scene of dogs and horses had returned to before.
White Shark Tavern.
Raymond followed Anna to the secret underground auction hall for the first time, which was only open to members.
The secret auction is a basement-like place full of rusty pipes, presumably a scrapped boiler room from hundreds of years ago. The venue was poorly furnished, there was no power supply, and a few oil lamps illuminated the whole room, which added a bit of mystery.
There are so many of these obsolete underground pipes in the depths of the city in District 23 that no one can figure out where this complex underground pipe system leads. This is the place where the filth is really hidden, the place where the underground forces are most active.
Legend has it that in these places that are never exposed to the sun, there are many mutated monsters.
But Raymond knew these were not legends.
These pipe areas in the game are one of the few places in Philip's territory that spawn creeps intensively, and players love to visit them.
There are some rudimentary crypt monsters like mutant giant rats, and occasionally two-breathed creatures from the deep sea that can burst some good potion materials.
Especially in the deeper wading areas at the bottom, there are high-level terrifying sea monsters lurking.
Raymond and Anna are both dressed in black hoods and deliberately cover their faces with a face scarf, looking tightly wrapped. In this dark underground world, without the faint light of the oil lamp, their tracks would completely melt into the darkness.
"Raymond, you don't seem surprised? Isn't this the first time you've been to such a secret auction? ”
Generally speaking, people have an innate alertness to unfamiliar environments. Especially in this kind of eerie place, anyone who comes here can't help but shudder.
But just now, along the way, Anna watched Raymond always strolling leisurely, as if he was walking in her own back garden.
Raymond said half-truthfully, "I grew up in District 23, and I used to play in this kind of place when I was a child. ”
Hearing this, Anna suddenly revealed, "Oh. ”
"The two gatekeepers just now are at least Sequence 8 transcendents, and the specifications of this auction are a bit high."
Raymond muttered and asked, "By the way, Mentor Anna, what did you say about the 'Sodros Codex'?" ”
"I heard that the 'Blood Skull Pirates' robbed the descendants of the 'Black Sea No. 1 Swordsman' Sodros, and obtained a kendo codex that recorded his practice when he was young, 'Thirteen Paths of Fury Wind Sword'. Of course, the people of the Blood Skull were very careful about this, and not many people knew the inside story. ”
After a pause, Anna continued: "You have awakened the [Trickster], and you will definitely follow the path of a spear and sword master in the future. I thought, I am afraid that there will be no better sword inheritance in the entire Black Sea. ”
Raymond looked stunned, suddenly thought of something, and muttered in his heart, "It turns out that this 'Angry Wind Sword' came from this way." That said... Blood Skull Annihilation should be the precursor to that mission, right? ”
He naturally knew that [Angry Wind Quick Sword], the most dick swordsmanship that kendo players could come into contact with in the early stage of the game, there was no one.
And this set of swordsmanship also has a series of follow-up tasks to hide, which was successfully completed, pointing directly to the entire inheritance of the "Sword Demon" Sodros.
This is one of the most awesome kendo inheritances in the entire world of great navigation!
He also knew that after Sodros's disappearance, the family was wiped out.
Even he knew that there were still a few fish in the Sodros family, and it should not be long before they landed in Philip's territory, which would trigger the next "chasing the murderer" mission.
Many people don't know why Sodorus disappeared, but Raymond does.
There is an expansion pack in the mid-to-late stages that reveals this plot.
Sodros obtained a "magic sword", became a sword slave in a mental disorder, and was finally killed by the Admiral himself after creating endless killings.
"It turned out to be the door of the Blood Skull Pirates. So, the guillotine mission "Chasing the Murderer" of "One of the Top Ten Mystery Cases of Philip's Collation", which was once listed alongside the "Mystery of the Hidden Moon Castle", is here? ”
Raymond's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was even more determined to get this codex.
If nothing else, with this inside information, he can even successfully get the reward of the "decapitation mission" from the descendants of Sodros!
At the beginning, many kendo masters in the game were missing this key task, so the "Sodros Inheritance" obtained in the end was not complete.
finally
Raymond felt like he had taken it over.
Sodros's "Angry Wind and Quick Sword Flow"... It's exciting to think about.
Tsk, super awesome kendo inheritance...
The point is, this genre is not only awesome, but also handsome!
For this reason, the various fast sword genres have become the most popular genres among players in the game, and Mu Yu is one of them.
......
Anna looked at Raymond's eyes and asked curiously, "What are you thinking?" How do I think your eyes are glowing like wolves just now? ”
"Uh... Something happy came to mind. ”
As soon as Raymond finished speaking, a big question suddenly came to mind.
Immediately, he looked embarrassed again, and hesitated: "If you want to shoot this codex, I'm afraid it's not cheap, right?" ”
"Huh?"
Although Anna's top-secret face was hidden by a face toil, her twin eyes seemed to be able to speak, revealing a charming and witty look.
"Damn... How did I forget Anna's identity... The royal sister in front of her is not only white and beautiful, but also a super rich woman! ”
Raymond felt that she understood something in her meaningful eyes.
This kind of look is like the eyes of those rich women in a private club...
That's the look that makes the duck kings flock to it!
The princess of the dead country, no matter how she is a princess.
What's more, there is a Golden Tooth Pirate group behind her who made a fortune by robbery.
Raymond felt that he seemed to be on the way to eat soft rice more and more smoothly...
An Irene, an Anna... Two super rich women!
Reason resisted only for a moment, and then it was shattered like a bank.
Forget it, I'm resigned!
Eat soft rice, eat soft rice, the opportunity to struggle for less than 20 years is not something that anyone can encounter.
If Mentor Anna really has any indescribable thoughts, let's not be reserved!
But...
Whip candle bundle or something...
It seems a little ashamed...
Ahh
The price is right, and I don't want this face!
