Chapter 29: The Journey for the Two Begins

Although Rococo is not interested in a series of sub-story quests on the Romantic Walker, after all, now is the time when she needs to seize all the time to accumulate experience, and if she can gain experience points by simply running errands to see a few landscapes, Rococo will naturally be quite happy.

However, it turns out that although they have become NPCs in the game, the former powerhouses of the continent of Emissia like Romanticist Vepal are still not so easy to fool. After Rococo followed Chu Jiajia from the stone cliff platform back to the grove near Xilan Town and found Vipal, who had temporarily settled here, although Rococo tried very hard to talk to the other party, there was no way to trigger the task like Chu Jiajia.

Obviously, although I don't know what the principle is, but because of the overwriting of the laws of time and space of the earth, Vipal does have a way to tell whether the player in front of him is a person who truly loves nature and beauty. No matter how realistic Rococo's performance is, it is almost as true as saying "My wish in this life and this life is to be able to travel all over the continent of Emissia", but this blind powerhouse always keeps smiling, and every time he only formulaically answers her with the setting line "Eumicia is the greatest miracle given to us by the goddess of creation, Arya", which has no logical connection with Rococo's words.

Obviously, the blindness of his eyes did not prevent him from seeing through the lies......

Anyway, she was just holding the mentality of trying it out, so she wasn't too disappointed that she couldn't trigger the scenery viewing mission on Vipal, but she didn't expect that this blind NPC would cause her a little trouble in an unexpected place - after hearing his formulaic character lines, a certain goddess of creation hidden in Rococo's body seemed to be teased to tears all of a sudden, Let Rococo have to be distracted and comfort this novice creator god who was moved by the sincere love from his creation.

And just when Rococo was silently comforting Alya in his heart, on the other side, Chu Jiajia, the trigger of Vipal's official mission, also began to report to Vipal about the scenery she saw on the side of the stone cliff not long ago.

Compared with Chu Jiajia's performance that he couldn't help but be completely embarrassed when he talked about the beautiful scenery, Rococo had to admit that his previous acting skills were indeed a little clumsy, and on the other side, Vipal, who was a listener, although he was an NPC, could also see the expression on his face when listening to Chu Jiajia's narration, which was a little more humane than the formulaic smile he had when he dealt with Rococo before.

In fact, because he was abducted and upgraded by Rococo halfway, Chu Jiajia did not return to Jiaocha immediately as he did the previous times, and Chu Jiajia was originally a little weak about this. However, in terms of results, Chu Jiajia is quite a bit of a blessing, it turns out that the most beautiful time of the day on the side of the stone cliff is the "Golden Grassland" scenery when the sun sets, because he was fooled by Rococo into a teammate who leveled up and farmed monsters and delayed the task time, Chu Jiajia also saw the most beautiful moment of the day in the plain under the stone cliff by mistake, coupled with her enthusiasm and sincere telling that has always satisfied Vipal, in the end, Chu Jiajia herself did not expect that, The completion of her task of seeing the scenery this time was actually higher than before, and it was the most perfect one.

But before Chu Jiajia could get happy, Vipal told her a piece of frustrating news after waving her hand and giving her experience as a reward for the mission.

The area around Hiran Town is not a vast and beautiful place, and there are indeed not many places that can be liked or slightly paid attention to by this romantic traveler who loves beautiful scenery. Chu Jiajia has actually visited all the more beautiful scenery around Xilan Town through Vipal's guidance in the past few days, and the scenery on the other side of the stone cliff is the last one.

In other words, the series of scenery quests that can be triggered on the generation of Vipal in Hilan Town has ended here, of course, if there is a chance that they can be met elsewhere in the future, similar scenery viewing quests can still be triggered, but in this area of Hilan Town, there is no attraction for this romantic walker at the moment.

The departure of the romantic walker is bad news in all senses, and in terms of emotion, Chu Jiajia still has a good impression of this NPC uncle who loves natural scenery as much as herself, and also told him where he can see beautiful scenery when he has just entered the game and doesn't know anything. From a rational point of view, with the departure of Vepal and the end of the series of tasks to see the scenery, the [Blessing of the Romantic Walker] buff on Chu Jiajia's body will also disappear automatically, and all aspects of Chu Jiajia's character attributes will be greatly reduced.

But it's not without good news, maybe it's because Chu Jiajia's previous series of scenery viewing tasks, the narration of the beautiful scenery with a sincere love for the scenery moved this romantic walker, before leaving, as a thank you gift for helping him to see the scenery in the past few days and coming back to tell him very enthusiastically, Vepal gave Chu Jiajia experience points and some money as a reward for the last mission, and also gave her an ornament.

The silver ring [Traveler's Ring], the attribute value bonus to health and agility according to the Rococo previous life game database, is not high in the silver level of jewelry but is also decent, not living up to the quality level of silver, but it has a pretty good special bonus: a small reduction in the initial aggro value of the ring holder.

As mentioned before, in the game "Redemption", the player does not take the initiative to attack the wild monster in time, as long as it appears in the range of the wild monster's hatred, it will provoke hatred, and this kind of hatred generated by no artificial hatred factor is simply because it exists in the field of vision, which is called the initial hatred value. In "Redemption", not all mobs will take the initiative to attack after seeing the player, and some "docile" mobs will not actively attack the player under normal conditions, which is actually because in the judgment of the game system, the initial hatred value of these mobs towards the player is low enough to trigger the active attack command.

The special effect of [Traveler's Ring] is to be able to reduce the initial aggro value of wild monsters, although as a silver-level accessory, its effect can only be "slightly reduced" as described, but for some aggressive but not strong wild monsters, such as the big wild boar that Rococo dealt with before, maybe this little reduction in the initial aggro value is enough to make Chu Jiajia only be alerted by the other party when he reappears in their field of vision, but will not be actively attacked.

Whether it's for a simple wilderness adventure or for some special mission, this special attribute that can weaken the initial aggro is undoubtedly quite useful, and for some areas where the monsters are not very aggressive, as long as you equip this ring and shout "Ah~Karin~" - well, shouting that sentence is not really needed - you can swagger through. Even Rococo was a little envious after seeing the attributes of this ring.

If it were another player, it would undoubtedly be a happy thing to get such a ring in the early stage, but Chu Jiajia, who was only a novice in the game, obviously still didn't have a deep understanding of these things, holding the Traveler's Ring in her hand, Chu Jiajia looked a little lost when she looked at the back of Vipal leaving, after all, although she was an NPC, Vipal was also the first "person" to have "communication" with Chu Jiajia in the game.

After Vipal left, because it was about to be offline, Rococo also took Chu Jiajia in the direction of Xilan Town.

"Xiao Ke, that girl still seems to be a little lost."

Rococo's train of thought, which was originally thinking about tomorrow's monster farming leveling plan, was interrupted by Alya, and looked at Chu Jiajia, who was indeed a little listless beside him.

γ€Œβ€¦β€¦ You mean let me comfort her?"

"yes, aren't you teammates?"

Arya has a good impression of Chu Jiajia, after all, although it is not to the extent of Vipal, but Chu Jiajia does show a sincere affection for the world of the Eumisia Continent above ordinary players, which is enough to make Arya, as the creator god, have kindness to her.

γ€Œβ€¦β€¦ It's so troublesome, and I'm not a confidant big sister."

Just now I comforted the natural creation god here, why does she have to care about the psychological construction of the vitality girl players around her......

Although he thought so in his heart, Rococo still subconsciously spoke.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Okay, Jiajia, don't be depressed, there will still be a chance to meet in the future, right? ”

After Chu Jiajia heard Rococo's words, her eyes suddenly lit up, but then she was a little lost.

"That's the way it goes, Coco...... Uncle Vipal also said just now that he will continue to travel to the continent in the future, I have seen the map of the continent in "Redemption" on the official website before, the whole continent is so big, it is difficult to meet Uncle Vipal again. ”

No, in fact, I have several clues about this man's quest if you want toβ€”but of course, Rococo can't say that.

"No, didn't he actually give you a hint before he left?"

"Huh?"

"He said that his wish is to be able to witness several legendary beauties on the continent of Emissia in his lifetime, so maybe as long as you go near those attractions, you may meet him again?"

Rococo is not making up nonsense, this is indeed a genuine quest clue, after opening the inheritance system in the later stages of the game, if you want to obtain the inheritance of Vipal the Romantic Walker, traveling and witnessing several legendary wonders on the continent is indeed the most important prerequisite for starting the inheritance quest.

Chu Jiajia's understanding of the game is naturally not deep enough to be able to identify the hidden task clues in the seemingly ordinary words of the NPC, but she does not have any doubts about Rococo's words.

"Really? That's great! Well, but Uncle Vipal didn't say anything about the legendary wonders before he left. ”

"The floating sea of golden sand, the rainbow of the end of the storm, the dreamy spiritual song of the Crystal Plains, and ...... A fairy night in the middle of the jungle. ”

While looking at the information sent by Arya Rococo to Chu Jiajia Science popularization, but when he saw the last spectacle description, Rococo couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and finally this goblin fantasy night ...... Looking at the description, it seems to be related to her, the primordial fairy born in the World Tree...... So one day, maybe she will be watched as a spectacle by the girl next to her?

This bit of Rococo's mental activity is naturally not known to Chu Jiajia, in fact, just hearing the names of these wonders mentioned by Rococo, this girl who is full of enthusiasm for all the beautiful scenery immediately mobilized her imagination and showed a full yearning expression.

"Wow, it must all sound pretty...... Coco, we'll definitely check it out in the future! ”

Hey, how can this "we" be so proficient...... Although she had indeed been thinking about developing Chu Jiajia with good potential into a long-term teammate before, it seemed that the other party had this meaning earlier than her.

So a creature like a human being is really, obviously the desired result, but because it came too easily, it produced an inexplicable sense of passivity, ah, she may not be a real "person"......

…… Speaking of this way of speaking, I always feel subconsciously associated with the lustful skeletons of a certain pirate group......

"Speaking of which, Jiajia, why do you yearn so much to see those beautiful scenery?"

In order to dispel the ghost animal laughter that suddenly appeared in her mind, Rococo casually asked the question she had been curious about before.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Rococo's question, Chu Jiajia's expression froze obviously.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Because, of course, only in the game can I ...... See it with your own eyes......"

Obviously, for modern humans who may have lived in the fortress of reinforced concrete civilization all their lives, this is also a standard answer that should be regarded as a matter of course, but for some reason, Rococo felt such heartache from Chu Jiajia's answer.

A short silence fell between the two, Chu Jiajia realized that her previous emotions were a little wrong, which caused this embarrassment, she shook her head slightly, she showed a smile to Rococo that she could see that she was working hard, but it would only be more distressing, and she opened her mouth slightly, obviously wanting to say something to enliven the atmosphere, but she didn't know what to say for a while, and finally didn't make a sound.

But at this moment, Rococo was the first to speak.

"Well, anyway, if you want to go to these places, you can't do it without trying to improve your level and strength, these places are all quite dangerous high-level maps."

It seemed that it was obvious that she would deliberately change the topic for her sake, but she pretended to be casual, as if she hadn't experienced the embarrassment of Rococo before, Chu Jiajia didn't know why, the sadness that was originally just forcibly suppressed was really alleviated a lot.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well, I see, Coco. But now that Uncle Vipal is gone, I don't know how to get XP upgrades? ”

Although she said this, Chu Jiajia, who had obviously regained her original liveliness, looked at Rococo with a pitiful look, although she knew that the other party could definitely see that she was pretending, but the cunning in Chu Jiajia's eyes showed that she was actually knowingly committing it.

Sure enough, Rococo didn't poke it, but just turned his face sideways to speak.

"Anyway, I'm going to go to the monster farm tomorrow to level up, and if you want to come along, it's not impossible-"

"Then thank you Coco~I knew Cocoa was the best~"

"First of all, let's talk about it first, I just think it's probably more efficient and safer for two people to team up, if you drag your feet too much, maybe I won't team up with you."

"It's okay, just like today, it's good if you teach me, I'll learn seriously~"

"So, why do you have to default to me teaching you, isn't that a level more tiring than if I took you with a monster farm......"

Snuggled intimately together and walked to Xilan Town at night, obviously they only met each other today, but for some reason, the two of them at this moment are like friends who have known each other for many years.
