Chapter 646: Kindness
"Archibald, do you have an adventurer's hotel in your village?" asked Zhao Sen towards Archibald
In the world of no way, the adventurer's hotel is the lowest level of security and offline area, players can go to these adventurer's hotels all over Auckland to replenish or go offline, but if you go offline in a place like the adventurer's hotel, you must open a room, to put it bluntly, you have to pay to go offline safely
"Yes, there is an adventurer's inn to the east of the entrance of the village, why are you leaving?" Archibald asked, helping Zhao Sen out of bed
Zhao Sen moved on the ground and felt much better
"Archibald, I just want to go out and walk around," Zhao Sen replied with a smile, "Oh," Archibald nodded
Zhao Sen was about to walk towards the door, when he suddenly felt that someone was pulling the corner of his clothes, he looked down, and saw Juliet tugging at the corner of his clothes, looking at himself with reluctant eyes
It seems that this Juliet head and Zhao Sen are quite compatible
Zhao Sen hurriedly squatted down and hugged Juliet into his arms, and said to her with a smile:
"Juliet, my brother doesn't leave, I just go out for an activity and come back later, and my brother will come back in a while to bring you something delicious, okay?"
"Hmm" Hearing Zhao Sen say not to leave, Juliet immediately nodded happily
Walking out of the small courtyard of Archibald's farmhouse, Zhao Sen walked along the sheep intestine path outside the courtyard gate towards the village at the entrance of the village
Rutherford Village was originally a small village the size of a palm, and there were only twenty or thirty families in total, and Zhao Sen didn't take long to reach the village at the entrance of the village
Zhao Sen raised his eyes and saw that there was a two-story wooden building in the northeast of the village, and there was a large wooden pillar erected at the door of the small building, and a banner hung on the pillar, and five big characters were written crookedly on the banner:
"Adventurer's Inn"
Zhao Sen walked quickly to the door of the Adventurer's Hotel, and at this time, a man in coarse cloth clothes immediately greeted him from the door
"Welcome, brave adventurer," the man smiled and welcomed Zhao Sen through the door
"Staying in the hotel," Zhao Sen said, taking out a silver coin and handing it to the man
In this humble adventurer's hotel, one silver coin is enough for the player to live for more than half a month, and the man took the silver coin, and his face was even more smiling like an old chrysanthemum
"Dear adventurer, please come with me, I promise to open you the best upper room we have here" After speaking, the man led Zhao Sen to a room in the middle of the second floor
Sending the man away Zhao Sen was not in a hurry to go offline to eat He sat at the wooden table in the room and thought about it secretly
In Zhao Sen's memory, there didn't seem to be such an NPC settlement as Rutherford Village in this 500-mile radius, and he had never heard of this place in the official forums of Wudao in his previous life
It shouldn't be
In the previous life, there is a special section in the official forum of Wudao called Changyou Wudao In this section, it is mainly some players who like to visit scenic spots in the game For this part of the players, there is no place in the entire Wudao world map that they have not been to And these players have also done various sortings of the maps in the Wudao world Zhao Sen often went to this forum section to find unfamiliar places in his previous life
Is this Rutherford village a hidden map, or is this a replica-like map?
If that's the case, then Zhao Sen won't leave easily, because in this kind of map, players can often receive all kinds of strange tasks, but these tasks are very difficult, and if you want to successfully complete the task, you must pay a lot of effort and time, of course, after completing the task, the task rewards that players get are also very rich
After some reminiscence and reflection, Zhao Sen preliminarily concluded that this Rutherford Village should be a hidden map
After getting some lunch casually off the line, Zhao Sen hurriedly continued to put on the Wudao game
In the Daoless world, players will usually receive a system mission notification after entering the hidden map, but when Zhao Sen wakes up at Archibald's house in Rutherford Village, he does not receive any system mission notification
From this point of view, this hidden map mission may not be easy, because there are very few hidden map missions that the player needs to find and claim by themselves, this kind of mission is as rare as the hidden mission, and if the player is lucky, he can also receive the task chain
A burst of white light flashed, and Zhao Sen walked out of the upper room of the Adventurer's Hotel
Downstairs to the lobby of the Adventurer's Hotel Zhao Sen saw a proprietress NPC standing in the bar in the hall This proprietress were dressed in a bewitching manner As soon as Zhao Sen got downstairs, her gaze never left Zhao Sen's face
Zhao Sen didn't walk to the bar yet, and the proprietress beckoned to him with a smile on her face:
"Is this adventurer comfortable staying in our hotel, what else do you need ?"
"What do you have for sale here?" Zhao Sen sat down at the bar
"We have all the supplies that adventurers need, not only a complete variety, but also cheap and good, I don't know what adventurers need to have," the proprietress enthusiastically introduced
"Let's have a bottle of wine first, I want the kind with the best taste of the vintage," Zhao Sen took out a gold coin and put it on the bar
Seeing that Zhao Sen casually took out a gold coin, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the proprietress She quickly turned around and took out a bottle of the best red wine in their hotel from the wine cabinet and put it in front of Zhao Sen
While pouring himself wine, Zhao Sen asked the proprietress seemingly casually:
"Hostess, I don't know if you guys need help here."
"Help, I'm afraid you'll have to ask other people to do it, everything is fine in our hotel now, we don't need any help," the proprietress replied that Zhao Sen was very disappointed, and it seemed that he had to go to other NPCs to ask
After drinking a glass of red wine, Zhao Sen put the rest of the red wine in his backpack, and then he bought some drinks and food at the hotel, and then walked out of the adventurer's hotel
Now is the time to eat There are almost no people in the small streets of Rutherford Village Zhao Sen thought about it and walked down the small street back to Archibald's small courtyard
When Zhao Sen walked into the courtyard, Archibald and Juliet were having lunch, and when they saw Zhao Sen coming back, Archibald hurriedly came out of the house
After saying hello to Archibald Zhao Sen walked into the house Juliet who was sitting next to the old wooden table was eating with a big bowl Zhao Sen looked at the food on the table and couldn't help but feel sour
I saw that there was a plate of cold animal skins without any oil and water on the table, and Juliet's bowl was also thin water, which could not be more diluted
"Archibald, you eat these things every day," Zhao Sen asked with a frown at Archibald
"Young man, I make you laugh, there is no labor at home, only our grandparents depend on each other, and I eat and drink all by cutting wood, and Juliet picks medicine in exchange for it, and it is good to be able to make ends meet," Archibald said helplessly
"What about Juliet's parents," Zhao Sen couldn't help but ask
Zhao Sen's question seemed to touch Archibald's sore spot, his eyes darkened, he lowered his head and was silent, and the whole person seemed to be ten years old all of a sudden
Seeing that Archibald seemed to have something unspeakable, Zhao Sen didn't ask any more questions, he took out a large pile of food from his backpack and put it on the kang
"Archibald, thank you for saving me, this is a little bit of my heart, please accept it" Zhao Sen stuffed the ten gold coins he had prepared into Archibald's hand, "Archibald, you take this money, what Juliet needs, you go and buy it for her."
Archibald had never seen so many gold coins in his life, and these gold coins were enough for their grandparents to live comfortably for ten years
"This ...... It's too precious for us to take it," the loyal Archibald waved vigorously
"Archibald, you just take it, Juliet, this kid is quite pitiful, just think I gave it to her" Zhao Sen shoehorned the gold coin to Archibald
"You're such a good man, young man," Archibald was moved to tears
Only then did Zhao Sen ask:
"Uncle Min, can you tell me about Juliet's parents?"
Judging from Archibald's expression just now, Zhao Sen faintly felt that there might be a joke in this Maybe some clues to the mission could be set out from Archibald's mouth Of course, Zhao Sen did not send Archibald's ancestors food and money for the mission He was really sad just now Where would Archibald hide anything from Zhao Sen at this moment After he sighed, he told the story of the incident in 1510
It wasn't supposed to be called that Rutherford Village, it was called Noel Village, and it all started one night four years ago
It was a cloudy night, and the villagers of Noel had rested early, except for the occasional dog bark, and the village of Noel seemed quiet and serene under the cover of night
In the second half of the night, the windows of every house were lit up, and all the young men and women in the village, who were twenty to thirty years old, got up from their beds without saying a word, and walked towards the door with dull eyes
The Archibald family didn't escape the catastrophe, and Juliet's parents, like the rest of the young people, went out of the house
The young people of the whole village walked to the entrance of the village, and they were all expressionless, and their eyes were glazed, as if they were being controlled by something, and the rest of the village was frightened, and they didn't dare to approach, so they could only watch from afar
At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and the whole threshing floor suddenly flew sand and rocks, and the villagers could not even open their eyes
When the wind stopped, the young men and women on the field went crazy, and they pounced on the surrounding villagers, and they tore at their relatives, friends, and neighbors like wild beasts, and many of the villagers were torn to pieces on the spot, and the entire village of Noel suddenly became a bloody killing field
