Chapter 17: The First High-Priced Mission!
"I'm the undead, I'm proud!"
I love the Berserker puffed up his chest, his shiny ribs scorching in the sun: "Master, you will know later, I am very powerful!" I have a lot of potential! ”
Arya glanced at the skeleton soldier in front of her with a complicated face.
It is said that undead creatures are an extremely evil existence, and at first she was a little scared when she saw this skeleton, but now she doesn't think so.
Look at this little arm and calf, the leg is still lame, the wrist of one hand is broken, and at the same time there is not even a decent weapon, so you can only pick up your own ribs as the only weapon.
She was a little suspicious of who such a weak skeleton soldier could hurt?
I'm afraid it would take a lot of effort to kill a magic bouncing bunny.
"I ......"
Arya stopped talking, glanced at the skeleton soldier in front of her, and then sighed deeply: "Forget it, it's okay." ”
What's wrong with her?
I love Berserker and I was still immersed in the joy of receiving the mission, but I just glanced at Arya suspiciously, but I didn't delve into why this NPC sighed.
"Let's go back first."
The priest gave me a deep look at the Berserker, and then said to Arya, "I think that once you enter the city, it will probably still be taken by the people of the Temple of Light." ”
"To make sure you can bring it back to the academy to complete the summoning test, I think it's important to give it some cover."
"Yes."
Shabi Swordsman nodded, took off his cloak and handed it to the skeleton soldier, "You understand what I'm saying, right?" Put it on and don't reveal who you are. Otherwise, the people of the Temple of Light will come to you, at least you can't die now. ”
"I understand, I know. I can't be discovered by the people of the Temple of Light. ”
I love the berserker and took the cloak and draped it on my body: "God of Light, villain, I will destroy him sooner or later." ”
"It's kind of interesting."
The priest didn't laugh angrily, and the Shabi swordsman couldn't help but sneer: "It's quite ambitious, the God of Light is the villain, hahaha." ”
He couldn't help but laugh, this was the first time he had heard a negative evaluation of the God of Light, even though the reviewer was an undead creature.
"Isn't it?"
I love the Berserker shrugged his shoulders: "I tell you, my brothers are thousands, and when the expansion is released, we will go to the God of Light to settle accounts......"
Before he could finish his words, a new reminder came from the Godhead system.
[Hello dear players. Your online time today has reached the online line, please go offline within 10 minutes, you can choose to go back to the Chinese country to go offline, or you can go offline. After the original goes offline, your character will act autonomously, not protected by the kingdom of God, and there will be unpredictable risks. 】
"Why didn't you say it all of a sudden? What is an expansion piece? Is it a new undead artifact? ”
Arya asked suddenly, she felt that the skeleton soldier in front of her was a little different, and it was fundamentally different from the undead creatures advertised by the Temple of Light.
She wondered what she had summoned to come out, and once a woman's curiosity rose, no one could stop her.
"Let's go underground."
I love Berserker quickly made a decision, he finally accepted this task, and he couldn't just throw it away.
As for the risk after the original underground line, these NPCs are not weak, and they seem to want to protect themselves, so there shouldn't be any big problems.
"Dear master, let's talk later, I'm going to rest first."
I love Berserker beckoned to Arya, "886!" ”
With that, the Berserker went offline, leaving only the skeleton's body standing motionless.
“886? What do you mean? ”
Arya frowned at the skeleton soldier in front of her, why did it keep saying things that she couldn't quite understand.
"This skeleton soldier is a little strange, it can actually communicate with humans normally, it is not like a simple low-level skeleton soldier."
The priest was also observing my love of berserker's behavior before, he turned to look at Arya and said, "Anyway, let's bring it back to the academy first, the teachers may be interested in it, and maybe the Temple of Light won't be able to take it away." ”
"Hopefully, this is my first minion, and even though it's an undead creature, I hope it will live longer."
Arya nodded, and instead of continuing to communicate, she took the disguised skeleton soldiers and continued to walk out of the forest with the team.
"It's a good time."
Sabi Swordsman smiled and said, "At least, our goal has been achieved, and Arya has successfully summoned a new minion. ”
This time, everyone came to the Forest of the North because of a collection mission from the academy, and then solved Arya's summoned creature graduation exam problem by the way.
As a summoner, Arya must be able to summon at least one minion on her own in order to pass the Academy of Magic exam.
......
"What a wonderful misunderstanding."
Xu Xiaofan sighed a little, a girl who had no talent for summoning at all happened to encounter an undead creature that should not have appeared, and actually regarded it as her own summoned creature?
This coincidence made Xu Xiaofan a little amazed.
He thought that I loved Berserker and was certain to die, but who would have thought that things would turn out to be a twist and turn.
Not only does this thing not have to die, but it also has a chance to enter the city of the indigenous people of the Esque continent.
It seems that for gamers, the European gas is coming, and no one can stop it.
Therefore, Xu Xiaofan took advantage of the situation to let the godhead system issue a task at that time, and he was also looking forward to the development of this matter. If all goes well, I Love Berserker could be the first undead to break into the inner human life of the continent of Esker.
Even if things don't go well, and the Berserker is purified halfway, it doesn't hurt, and it's just dead and resurrected.
In any case, I love the contact between the berserkers and the natives of the Eske Continent, which allows Xu Xiaofan to collect more information about the Esker Continent.
This matter is beneficial and harmless.
......
After I love Berserker offline, I took a shower at home and logged on to the game forum.
His stream has taken the game forums by storm, with everyone discussing what he streams about, as well as the NPCs he encounters.
Shocked! The first group of NPCs in the Esker continent are really faced! 》
"Specific things, specific analysis. Teach you how to learn how to fight the streamer and shuttle away from the novice forest. 》
"Live streaming is the first screen recording perspective! Love Clips Exclusive First-Hand Accounts! 》
"I suspect that "I Love Berserker" has received an expansion mission, and the evidence is on the 18th floor of this post! 》
......
Countless eye-catching hot posts flooded the entire game forum, and players were boiling, everyone saw a corner of the expansion, and saw the picture of the undead and NPCs in contact.
This has stimulated more players to leave the northern forest and see the wider world of the game.
As a direct result of this incident, it also led to a sharp increase in the number of followers in the live broadcast room where I love Berserker, which made me very proud of my Berserker.
"These guys have really poisonous eyes, I'm afraid they don't have water friends majoring in psychology, right? I guessed I had been tasked with. ”
I love Berserker holding his chin, squinting slightly, and secretly happy: "Hehe, but even if you guess, it's useless." ”
"I'm going to have this mission to myself!"
At this time, I love Berserker picked up his brain terminal, which had a lot of unread private messages and text messages, as well as a large number of missed videos and call logs.
"it!"
I love Berserker to take a closer look, it is all messages from my game friends and the guild I belong to, and most of the text messages are asking about the specific things about my contact with the NPC this time.
Many people want to get first-hand information about how to better develop the Eske continent expansion in the future.
One of them was an unfamiliar message that caught my attention as a Berserker.
"Hello, I'm Xu Ercong, and I know your bound number through the forum account information. I have no ill intentions, and I hope to be able to get all the information and intelligence about your live broadcast today, and you can make a price. ”
Xu Ercong is very domineering, and directly asks the other party to make a price, and he can buy anything with money.
"I ......"
I love the Berserker's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked up: "I see, I have found a great business opportunity." ”
Should you sell it or not?
No one doesn't like money.
"How much can you give?"
He hesitated for a moment before sending the message.
Xu Ercong, who was rushing to the level in the game, received the message, stopped killing the monster, and then stood in the safe area to check the message.
Xu Ercong smiled: "Sure enough, no one can resist the charm of money." ”
"You name a price, as long as it's suitable." Xu Ercong replied.
"This is first-hand information and the first mission of the expansion. You are the forum master, and you should know the rules of the game Scourge of Death, where all missions are unique and each character can have irreversible effects on the expansion. ”
"I know."
Xu Ercong saw that the other party was constantly raising his bargaining chips and constantly emphasizing the importance of this intelligence news.
This kind of negotiation technique is too clumsy, but Xu Ercong is too lazy to puncture it, he himself has a psychological price, and beyond this price, the intelligence loses its value.
Moreover, Xu Ercong has already gotten a definite message from the other party's words.
This player did get the quest in the expansion!
"Brother, you can tell me a price."
"I ......"
I love Berserker hesitated for a long time, and as a semi-professional gamer who loves games, he would love to leave this quest for his own development.
But reality doesn't allow him to do that.
"Eight hundred thousand!"
I love Berserker gritted his teeth and quoted, and after sending the message, he felt a little prostration, and he was also a little apprehensive.
"Isn't that too high?"
Xu Ercong smiled and quickly replied to the message: "Brother, although each task may develop rarer reward content, the randomness of each task cannot be ignored. You can't guarantee that the task will have a lot of potential and will be worth so much money. ”
"Well, tell me the general content and type of mission first, as well as some relevant intelligence information. Then I will give you a suitable price, with my Xu Ercong's character as a guarantee. You know I don't care about the money, I just want to get the best value for my money. ”
Xu Ercong felt a little bored, the opponent was too vegetable, and he had no desire to negotiate and compete.
I love the Berserker shook his head and refused: "I can't tell you the specific intelligence information, otherwise you know the content of the intelligence, what if you don't buy this mission?" ”
"Brother, how do you sell this task? The person who accepts the task is you, and the official of "Death Disaster" does not say that the task can be transferred, and all tasks are directly bound to the character and cannot be transferred. ”
Xu Ercong couldn't help but smile: "I know you want money, but you have to recognize the reality, the binding nature of the task has already determined that no matter how precious this task is, it is impossible to sell it for a high price." We can only work together to develop this task. ”
"I know."
I love the Berserker was silent for a long time, and then asked, "How much can you give?" ”
"Eight hundred thousand."
Xu Ercong said the price that surprised me with the Berserker, Xu Ercong said with a smile: "800,000 is no problem, but you have to sign a work contract with me, you join my game club and become a staff member, including your mission This time, everything belongs to the club." ”
"800,000, your annual salary, paid in a lump sum. However, from today onwards, all your in-game earnings will be shared with the club, including your live broadcast, and you will also be subject to club management and commissions. ”
"How's that, willing?"
Xu Ercong's words fell, and I love Berserker so I decisively agreed: "No problem, I'm willing!" ”
"Deal, I will send someone to contact you later, and you will communicate with the management when the time comes. The money will be sent to you after you sign the contract, and I still have something to do, so I'll hang up first. ”
Xu Ercong hung up the phone.
"How do you give him 800,000? You can push down the price. This guy is too greedy to give him so much money! ”
On the side, Wang Dali came over, and Xu Ercong scolded: "You eavesdropped on my phone again!" ”
"Congcong, you actually murdered me!"
Wang Dali's face was full of grievances.
"800,000, I'm not at a loss."
Xu Ercong explained helplessly: "The tone of his first quotation shows that this is the most satisfactory price for him, although I don't know why he has such a high price, but at least I don't suffer a loss." ”
"I've read his profile, he broadcasts live online for ten hours a day, and he wants to attract people's attention with ingenuity, which should be a very short of money player."
"The most important thing is that he has a flexible brain and his game skills are not too bad. Although he is very greedy, it just so happens that the game club I just established is short of people, and it is a loss to buy a task for 800,000 yuan, but it is not a loss to buy a game talent. ”
Xu Ercong shrugged his shoulders: "After all, in my club, the minimum annual salary is 200,000 game pioneers, and 800,000 annual salary is just equivalent to a middle-level personnel." ”
The game circle system in the virtual era is very perfect, and game-related work is also flourishing.
"Death Disaster" gave Xu Ercong hope, which is why he invested so heavily in this game, including game forums and game clubs, recruiting troops, and wanting to make a big move.
"Damn, rich man!"
Wang Dali exclaimed: "A job with an annual salary of 200,000 yuan!" Brother, can I go to work in your club! I'm also a gaming talent! ”
Xu Ercong shook his head: "I'm sorry, my club is not considering recruiting canyon pianists for the time being, if a keyboard army department will be established in the future, I will consider pulling you in." ”
Wang Dali hid his face and cried: "Congcong, you don't love me anymore." ”
......
The other side.
"Okay, I have fully understood the situation, you can follow up on this task for the time being, and I will let the people from the analysis department form a specific project team."
A calm voice came from the other end of the phone: "We must develop the first task project well and strive to maximize the benefits." ”
"In addition, I have also received your network contract documents, and the money will be sent to you now. I'll hang up first, you call me for something. ”
"Okay, thank you."
I love Berserker to put down the brain terminal and breathe a sigh of relief, and soon, a new text message was sent.
800,000 yuan, successfully arrived.
I love Berserker sitting in front of Zhi Brain, looking at his live broadcast room, the rising number of followers, he feels a little unreal.
After a day's work, everything has changed?
Yesterday, I was still thinking about how to attract the attention of others, and today I suddenly got a huge amount of money and became a game celebrity.
"Bang bang."
I love Berserker to slap myself a few times, and suddenly chuckled, "It's really not a dream." ”
He picked up the brain terminal and dialed a phone call.
"Hey, is it Xiao Ren? Your mom is doing well today, don't worry. ”
"Dr. Li, I'll go over now."
"What's wrong, what's wrong?"
On the other end of the phone, I heard the hoarse and deep voice of my love berserker, and couldn't help but care: "Don't be too difficult for yourself, what do you tell me, the hospital still has a medical fund, although the proportion that can be given to you is not much, but I will ......"
"No need."
I love Berserkers trying to suppress their voices, keeping their eyes open and not letting the tears linger.
He wanted to say it a little more lightly.
"I'm lucky today, I've scraped together enough money."
In the end, he still couldn't hold back, hung up the phone, choked up, and gradually cried loudly.
The big boy lying in front of the screen of the brain, all the optimism and cheerfulness are gone, only the cry that comes out of complete indulgence.
Sometimes, people's tears are not for pain, but also for joy.
Before I left home, I loved Berserker to open his live room.
He thought about it and changed the name of the live broadcast room.
"I'm the undead, I'm proud!" 》
Maybe God thinks I'm bad enough to finally open a window for me.
"Thank you for the Grim Reaper."
He muttered, lit a cigarette, and left the house.
