Chapter 17: The Unexpected Man

When Qin Ran confirmed from the dungeon hint that the [Island Prison] and the [Psychic Partner] were in the same world, he knew that what happened in the Alcatel Prison was bound to cause an uproar.

Hundreds of prisoners died, and nearly 100 prison guards died.

Even if the former is deserved, the latter is enough to attract everyone's attention.

It's just that during this afternoon's investigation, Qin Ran didn't find any reports about Alcatel Prison.

Obviously, the matter about Alcatel prison has been suppressed by some people or forces.

This was mixed news for Qin Ran.

The good thing is that he doesn't have to worry about more people and forces getting involved.

On the downside, of course, it is obvious, he needs to compete with the professionals who have been stationed on Alcatel Island for the right to explore the bronze coffin.

As for who the latter?

Qin Ran subconsciously raised his head and looked at the old woman sitting behind the desk.

The other party asked very simply and directly, perhaps because of his personality, but in Qin Ran's opinion, it was still full of questions.

"It's not what you think!"

"I have nothing to do with the people who are already stationed on Alcatel Island and want to be stationed on the island!"

"My question, just out of curiosity!"

Seeing Qin Ran's gaze, 'psychic' Ni Kailei explained.

But Qin Ran couldn't trust the other party's words.

Because, there are too many things that make sense.

The simplest, since there is nothing to do with it, it is so clear why the other party would know so clearly after some people and forces covered up the incident in Alcatel prison.

The people who have already been stationed on Alcatel Island and discovered the bronze coffin will never reveal this information, even if only to reduce the number of competitors.

"Suspicious little one!"

"I'm the most powerful psychic on the West Coast!"

"If I want to see something, very few people can cover my eyes...... Of course, you and your vanished companions don't count! ”

"Your level of hiding is truly remarkable. If it weren't for you who happened to be in the city's independent library, I'm afraid I wouldn't have found anyone! ”

The old woman sighed, and then looked at Qin Ran with a little more curiosity.

In this regard, Qin Ran continued to remain silent.

He knew too little about this dungeon world.

In addition to knowing about Alcatel Prison, I only knew a few things about the city in front of me, which came from the afternoon reading.

As for the name of the most powerful psychic on the West Coast?

Sorry, he didn't get any news.

And the so-called 'happened to leave a figure in the city's independent library' behind the other party's words is naturally a systematic arrangement.

"Alright! All right! ”

"Suspicious and stubborn little fellow, it seems that it is difficult for me to get detailed information from your mouth to satisfy my curiosity!"

"Still. Since you've been my assistant, I'll be sure to keep you safe, even if it's only for a few minutes! ”

"Next!"

"If you get out of here, it can save your life when it counts!"

As she spoke, the old woman threw a round silver brand with a diameter of no more than five centimeters to Qin Ran.

[Name: Mark of Nikailei]

[Type: Sundries]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Attributes: None]

[Requirements: None]

[Can I bring out this copy: No]

[Note: The person who holds it represents the 'psychic' Nikella, and it will be especially useful when you encounter some trouble in this world!] 】

……

The introduction of the system appeared on Qin Ran's retina.

Qin Ran gently rubbed the runes engraved on it with the tips of his thumb. In lingua franca, it is the old woman's name, 'Ni Kailei'.

Looking at the silver medal in his hand, Qin Ran carefully recalled his attitude after meeting the other party, as well as the arrangement of the previous test.

The other party did not show any malice.

But Qin Ran couldn't rule out that this was a disguise.

But whether it's true or not, no malice, just curiosity. Or is it disguised for another purpose.

Qin Ran will not leave.

After only thinking about it slightly, Qin Ran already understood where the key point of this copy was.

The protection of the 'psychic' Ni Carlet!

As long as he has the protection of the other party, he can survive this difficulty for the second copy without danger.

Although this protection conflicts with his goal of 'exceeding the side quest and title quest as much as possible'. However, it fits in with his main quest [Serving as a psychic assistant for three months].

The situation in front of him is already clear at a glance, and if he leaves now, it must be regarded as a failure.

This is something that Qin Ran is unwilling to accept.

Even if you want to leave. You also have to hang the name of the other party's 'assistant'.

Therefore, after organizing the language slightly, Qin Ran said like this.

"I won't leave, even if I have your mark, it's far from being as safe as staying by your side!"

"In exchange for the protection you gave me, I will tell you about my experience inside Alcatel Prison!"

After speaking, Qin Ran's eyes looked at the old woman, waiting for the other party's answer.

"Clever little one!"

The old woman laughed, and then, holding 'Tiqi', she changed her posture, obviously ready to listen to Qin Ran's story in detail.

"Kilfin is the culprit of everything. Huffy! ”

Qin Ran began his own narration.

He tried his best to abandon subjective judgments, and only explained in an objective way what happened in Alcatel Prison.

From the poisoning incident they encountered on the island to Kilfin. Hitch's body fell to the ground, melted into a cloud of black-red liquid and flew towards the bronze giant coffin in mid-air, and the process of dipping into it, Qin Ran recounted it.

Of course, some key things Qin Ran still hidden.

For example, Kilfin. Hitch once said 'given by the ancestors'.

"Back from the dead?"

After Qin Ran finished speaking, the old woman did not immediately express her opinion, but muttered in a low voice.

Qin Ran could clearly see that with such a whispered chatter, the old woman's kind expression became serious.

After more than ten seconds, the old woman let out a sigh.

"It's worse than what I 'see'!"

"2567, you've given me an important piece of information - it's far beyond satisfying my curiosity, and you're willing to be my assistant!"

"So, as a ...... Well, the exchange, yes, in exchange, I'll teach you as much as I can about the mysteries for the rest of this time! ”

"Now, you can also go to the second floor and pick your room!"

The old woman was obviously a little unaccustomed to Qin Ran's words, and after trying several times in a row, she was able to accurately express this meaning.

With the old woman's words, Qin Ran's main quest changed.

[Main quest: 3 months as a psychic assistant, 0/90 days]

A time prompt appears after the task.

Qin Ran glanced at the time prompt, and did not leave as the old woman said.

Instead, he asked the old woman a question that had appeared in her heart for a long time.

"What are the people and forces stationed on Alcatel and those who want to enter Alcatel?"

"Or more accurately: who are the people and forces who are hostile to me?"

Qin Ran asked.

For the bronze giant coffin, even if the situation was far more complicated than he imagined, Qin Ran did not intend to give up easily.

He needed to know more.

And the old woman in front of her is obviously a good target to investigate.

"The forces stationed on Alcatel Island are the Society known as the 'Dark Star', a not-so-good and not-so-bad organization that has its own rules and acts according to them!"

"And the forces that want to enter Alcatel Island are different, the 'Night Demon' Association, an organization that will do whatever it takes to achieve its goals!"

"As for your enemies?"

"Although there are some small trash fish, the main one is He. Strange. Evil. Teach! ”

The old woman replied.

"He. Strange. Evil. Teach? ”

"Kilfin. Isn't Huffy already dead? ”

Qin Ran was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked.

"But He. Strange. Evil. The church still exists, and there is another ambitious guy who plays for Kilfin. The name of Huff's revenge will be the whole H. Strange. Evil. Teach is integrated again! ”

"No need to question, his target is you!"

The old woman said in an affirmative tone.

"Who is he?"

Qin Ran frowned.

"Finks!"

The old woman gave a name.

"What?"

Qin Ran was taken aback, and he subconsciously asked, "Is it the Finkx I know?" ”

"That's right, it's the Finks you know!"

Looking at the surprised Qin Ran, the old woman gave a positive answer.

Qin Ran immediately frowned.
