Chapter Ninety-Three: Don't Call God by His Name
Hearing the news that I confessed that I had dropped two levels and no longer had an advantage in the rank, Yichen's face immediately froze, and he exclaimed after a while: "No! Your original character is level 8 high, and there will be a waiting time for you to be resurrected in the temple after death, and you will have to ...... for the first time Well, it's 36 hours, and if you die a second time, you'll have to wait another 28 hours. But lately, your character has been visiting the Dark Flame Family Library every day! Speaking of this, he smiled lightly: "Ha~ It's okay to deceive such a stupid child as a joke, if you want to deceive me, the means need to be improved." ”
“…… How do you know that I go to the Darkflame Family Library every day? ”
"Hmph~ I naturally have a news channel!" This guy sells off. Actually, he didn't say that I could guess it, it was nothing more than someone from the Dark Flame family who had other player stores besides me.
"Presumably your message channel is not perfect enough...... I did drop two levels. I said lightly, "I didn't go to the temple, I was resurrected by NPCs, so I don't need to wait." ”
"By the way, you are a nobleman, and your family will treat you somewhat preferentially, unlike our mercenary group, which doesn't even have a priest!" Yichen sighed.
Jie became happy, and imitated what he said before in Yichen's tone: "Ha~ It's okay to deceive such a stupid child as a joke, if you want to deceive me, the means need to be improved......" He sneered at Yichen: "Hmph, am I stupid?" Or is there someone who thinks they are smart? ”
"I understand that you have a rare opportunity to take revenge on my mistakes, but ......" Yichen was a little helpless.
I followed Yichen's words and said viciously: "But...... When you know that I have suffered misfortune, you are happy to be like this, are you a little heartless, and you have neglected the care and love I have always given you? ”
"Ah~ no, no...... This, in fact, I am very sad and very sad! It's really empathetic! It's just that I was too sad for a while, and my expression was not adjusted well, which made you misunderstand! The admonition contorted his face and put on a crying appearance: "Look! How sad I looked, I can definitely express my sincerity! ”
He hurriedly changed the subject: "By the way, should we destroy the priest named Eight Weeping?" ”
I looked at him with a puzzled look.
"Uh, didn't Yichen say that her influence is too great to our detriment? And now you don't have the advantage of your old rank...... But she's only level 6 now, so if we just hang her up by one level, we might be able to lose her priestly qualifications. ”
"Well, yes, yes, I can use my brain!" Yichen applauded.
But the child was very modest and didn't like to be praised, so he stretched his face and stared at Yichen.
"There are pros and cons to everything." Yichen said unhurriedly under the stares of the commandment: "It is precisely because we have taken a fancy to the potential influence of the first player to be promoted to the priest that we will find a way to bring her in. No matter how influential she is, the first thing she will benefit is the entire player store! Kill her? We also need to protect her from falling off the rank and losing her priesthood! After all, all we're doing now is trying to get the women, uh, I mean the priest players in the loop, and that's relying on her influence. ”
Speaking of this, Yichen couldn't help but curse: "Only women can be pastors!" Damn sexist! Damn Demon Blade City! Damn Luo ......"
I pressed one hand on my mouth and blocked him when he didn't finish scolding.
I glared at him and asked, "You didn't just want to curse a god, did you?" ”
Yichen impatiently pulled away my hand, puzzled, "What?" There are no brainless NPCs here. It's just a game.,Scolding is scolding.,Are you still afraid of being struck by lightning? ”
"It's because it's in the game, so it's hard to say what's wrong!" I explained, "Remember I told you that I was playing Paladin during the open beta, right?" ”
"I remember one time after destroying an evil heretical organization, I stumbled upon a book. The book was later handed over to the church and destroyed as soon as possible, but I had already read it carefully while it was still in my possession. I recalled, "The author of that book is said to be a madman, but I don't think so, how can a madman's babble make the church so nervous!" In fact, I've always felt that there was some, well, maybe an indirect influence of a number of gods. ”
I stared at the two people present: "That book reveals the secrets of the gods!" ”
"Well, that sounds amazing." Scratching his head, he said uneasily.
Yichen asked directly, "What are you going to say?" ”
"You don't have to know all the secrets in that book, so I won't tell them all. The secret I'm going to tell has to do with stopping Yichen from swearing! The gods have an indirect ability to perceive. Using this ability, the deity can thus perceive the situation around any of his worshippers, temples, or other sacred places or relics of the deity. This supernatural ability can also be used when anyone says the name or name of the deity, and it is valid for 1 hour after the name is spoken. It can also be used anywhere anything about the priesthood of the deity. Indirect Perception can cross any plane, pierce through any obstacle outside of an area blocked by other gods of the same rank or higher, cannot be deceived by spells such as misdirection and stance evasion, and does not produce detectable sensing fields like some detection magic. Depending on the level of the Godhead, a deity can perceive things around him and two or more indirect locations at the same time. Once a god chooses a location that he is indirectly aware of, he will automatically begin receiving messages from that location until he chooses a new location or is unable to continue for some reason, such as arriving within 1 hour of the name being spoken. ”
I put my thumb and forefinger around each other, spread out the other six fingers, and posed in the shape of a spider in front of Yichen and Jie, and continued: "And 'she', according to my estimate, can indirectly know as many as 10 places. ”
"The gods are not omnipotent, and we can't know if we slander them, but if you say it, you can know!" I saw that Yichen was about to stop talking, and immediately continued: "That's right, even if 'she' indirectly knows as many as 10 places, it may not just happen to be bumped into by us. But this city only allows the only open faith, that is, basically the area under the complete control of 'her', I believe that compared to other regions, 'she' will pay special attention, right? I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm just afraid of what happens! It is needless to invite unnecessary trouble because of a sentence. I would advise you not to call God by his name in the future, except to praise God. Especially 'her'! ”
"Well, you have a point." Yichen admitted: "Then in order to avoid trouble, in the future, as long as we don't mention 'she' in public...... "He learned from me to compare gestures." "Let's use this gesture to indicate it."
"So to get back to the point, I think that as long as you lose two levels of secrecy, it won't damage your influence, after all, this game can't directly see other people's character levels, and others know that you are the best among players because you are the first to be promoted to the nobility before others have reached the level conditions. As long as we don't say it, you're still the highest-level player in Demon Blade City! ”
He wondered, "Can this be hidden?" ”
Yichen said with a smile: "Hmph~ Most players recognize the person with the strongest ability and the highest level, but how should the ability level be evaluated?" Do you still have to pull banners and swing in the ring? In fact, building momentum is the most effective, since Scorpio still retains a noble identity that even NPCs have to recognize, coupled with the unanimous publicity, who dares to say that he is not the strongest and highest-level strongman among players? ”
"It's just ......" Yichen turned to me and said, "It's not safe to only have level 6, if you accidentally hang up again, I'm afraid that even the noble status will be lost." ”
"This ......," I said embarrassedly, "I also want to quickly rise back to my original level, but like before, the opportunity to burn nearly a hundred trolls is not so easy to find." ”
Yichen squinted his eyes and said with a wicked smile: "Actually, I just thought of a good idea!" ”
