Chapter 18: The Assassination of Sauter
It was raining outside Thorn City when Qingchi went online. The fireplace in the room was burning warmly, and the heavy rain was beating the ground outside the window, and the window was slightly open, revealing the damp scent of roses.
As more players come and go from Thorn City, there are fewer rooms in the hotel. Fortunately, Qingchi was the boss's first customer, so her room was always reserved for her, and she could enjoy the excellent view from the second floor.
It's a great place to sleep. Qing Chi stretched out his palm and took a little rain. The rainy days in the City of Thorns are the most beautiful, with the dampness and mist of the rain, which surrounds the whole town in a misty vine of thorns.
After buying supplies, please eat and send them to the river in Ximu Village. Shanna still waited tirelessly there.
"Oh, adventurer, you're finally here. Let's go back to the village now and kill Sauter. Shanna shook her fist.
"That's not going to work, we're facing a powerful enemy, and we have to outwit it." Qing Chi thought of a good idea, and immediately leaned into Shana's ear and said a few words. I saw her face gradually become excited with a confused face.
"You're so smart! Let's do it. Shanna said happily, shaking the braids on her head.
Don't look at her as a child NPC, the level is 80 on par with Thoth. In comparison, Qing Chi's level 30 is completely inadequate. Qing Chi let Shanna trot all the way back and began to prepare accordingly.
In the darkness of the night, a small, black-clad thief walked swiftly through the village, breaking the door of the tailor's shop, stealing the goods of the grocery store, and running from west to east.
The villagers of Ximu Village opened the door with torches and shouted, "Catch the robbers-" More than a dozen NPCs of more than level 80 followed behind their butts, which really made Qing Chi's heart palpitate. This robber is none other than Qing Chi, who has activated the camouflage effect of Shana's cloak. While attracting the attention of various villagers, she deliberately made a noise and ran towards the village chief's house.
When he arrived at the door of the village chief, seeing the bows and arrows and fireballs of the villagers behind him smashing over, Qing Chi hurriedly turned on the stealth effect and quickly pasted it in the corner. A large group of villagers hurriedly pushed open the door of the village chief's house.
I saw that Shanna in the room was deftly flipping her body, and she was already fighting with Sauter. Thort's mask was knocked to the ground by Shanna. The green name on the village chief's head suddenly turned a blinding red.
"The robbers killed the village chief! This village chief is a fake! Bella in the crowd suddenly shouted, picked up an iron sword and rushed forward. Soon, more and more villagers joined, and the situation turned into a dozen level 80 villagers beating up a robber Sote. Qing Chi withdrew from the invisibility effect, pulled out his bow and arrow, and shot at Sauter, only to hit a few misses plus a few points of damage. However, she still persevered in archery, after all, as long as she touched the boss, the system would default to completing the task by herself.
Sauter roared furiously, and a dazzling red circle appeared within 20 yards, and Qing Chi hurriedly dodged. Sure enough, the ground shook within the red circle, and the entire wooden house was blown to pieces. But at the same time, being beaten by more than a dozen villagers of the same level as himself, Sauter also became a little unbearable. But the damage of the villagers is very low, not as good as the robbers, and some villagers also suffered a lot of injuries. Since the time chosen by Qingchi is what time in the morning, there are not many novice players who come to watch the play in Ximu Village at this time. Some of them were affected as soon as they walked nearby, and their bodies died.
You can't keep going on like this. Qing Chi's eyes lit up, and he suddenly disappeared and turned into the alley.
"There's a big event going on at the village chief's house in the east, don't you want to go and see it, don't you want to kill Sauter with your own hands to take revenge?" Qing Chi found the beggar hidden in the dark alley and said in a seductive tone.
"What! Sauter is hiding here pretending to be the village chief! The beggar was astonished.
"But these villagers have been wounded, they are not warriors after all. If you kill Sauter, you'll become the village's hero. Hero, what a noble word. Qing Chi continued to tempt.
After she said that, she had checked the beggar's name to turn yellow. This means that the beggar's character attributes become neutral, neither good nor evil. If you can convince him, maybe you can let him do it.
"Judging by your hesitation, you may be afraid of Sauter. It seems that this village must be washed in blood. Until then, I must say goodbye to you and complete the assassination mission you have given me. Goodbye......" Qing Chi waved his hand.
Just two steps away, a hoarse and resolute voice suddenly came: "Wait! I can't tolerate Sott's continued evil, it's time to stop running away. Young Warrior, if you don't mind, please let me join you. ”
Qing Chi was overjoyed in his heart, and at this time, the name on the beggar's head had turned green, and it showed that he could form a team.
"Ahh Difficulty: Have you forgotten your promise and the orders of that adult? Sauter's eyes turned red and he roared.
"In the name of the Nine Gods, I will no longer be loyal to you demon-possessed people!" Will drew a sword.
Qing Chi was suddenly stunned for a moment, as if he had peeked at something. There was no need for a robber like Sauter to disguise himself as the head of a small village, and he mentioned that the lord seemed to be a noble figure. And the heaviest commitment is the knights of the royal city. Could it be ...... Qing Chi glanced at Will's sword, and it was indeed carved with the logo of the Fertile Earth Continent's King City, Glory City. Could it be that there is a villain in the royal city?
Things are getting more and more interesting. Qing Chi smiled slightly, raised the bow and arrow in his hand, and continued to shoot tirelessly. Finally, after half an hour of fighting, Sauter finally fell to the ground.
The system shows that the assassination mission of Soth has been completed, and immediately after that, a new mission pops up on the panel: investigating the mystery of the royal city. Because NPCs are not counted in the player. So all the massive experience flowed into Qing Chi's character slot, making her upgrade by level 3 at once, reaching level 33. Qing Chi happily began to touch things from Thoth.
Sauter burst out two pieces of dark gold equipment and two pieces of purple equipment.
Armor of Truss: Dark Gold quality, Strength 100, Constitution 80, reflects 15% physical damage when taking damage.
Belt of Truss: Dark Gold Quality, Skill 60, Speed 45, Physical Critical Strike Chance increased by 10%.
Fortunately, the minimum level limit for these two pieces of equipment is just 32. Qing Chi happily put on two pieces of dark gold equipment, and his attributes immediately increased by a large amount, and his pitiful blood volume increased by two thousand.
Two pieces of purple equipment, one is a purple quality ring, which can increase speed, and one is a purple steel armor, which Qingchi is going to mail to Fresh Orange. In addition, Qing Chi also obtained a letter with a special seal on it. It seems that in order to solve the mystery of the royal city, it is necessary to go to the royal city to find the scholars.
Will reveals his sword with the emblem of the royal city, and is revered as a hero by the villagers. After Sauter's body vanished, Will took off his filthy beggar's robes, revealing a dignified face with scars and stubble.
"Thank you, young hunter. You have fulfilled my request. I will stay in this village for the rest of my life to protect it. This is the treasure of Sauter, may the nine gods guide you forward. Will handed a yellowed drawing to Qing Chi.
It turns out that Will is a guard in the royal city, and has been instructed by an adult to bring a letter to Sauter, and is then forced to participate in the kidnapping of Shanna. Now that he had felt guilty, the sense of honor that belonged to the knight had returned to him.
