Phil, who calls himself "Sword Bear", was originally a very ordinary Frenchman, and after graduating from high school, he worked as a salesperson in a supermarket. *.*Hundred! Dawn. After the explosion of black technology, in order to realize his childhood dream of "becoming the king of the vast land", he gave up a stable life, came to the Antarctic continent alone, and lived in the abandoned Russian Komsomolsk Station - it is a small scientific research station located in the world's coldest, most snowstormy, and most inconvenient ice field, covered by heavy snow all year round, so desolate that even bacteria cannot survive.
What is the "King of the Vast Land"? He is alone in the vast land, and he is naturally the king......
So Phil stayed in this place where his dream could be realized, and this stay was for two years.
"Brother Tai is a true god!" After listening to his self-introduction, Cheng Peng and Wang Ji couldn't help but be in awe - there are so many people with dreams in their hearts, and after the outbreak of black technology, many people began to pursue their dreams. But it's really hard for someone like Phil to go to Antarctica for two years to live alone for his dreams!
Admiration is admiration, and it does not prevent Cheng Peng from wanting to beat this guy. Adventure 16
"I already know what you're here for." After Sitiao finished his tea, Phil said slowly, "I did hear two NPCs talk about the topic of 'I've recently gotten shit luck and got water glass, where should I hide it?'" But why am I telling you the details of this information? β
Cheng Peng nodded secretly in his heart - he also felt that things were not so simple.
"How long have you been on the Island of Greed?" Phil shifted gear, but got to something inconsequential.
"Two days."
Phil smiled and asked again, "So, a hundred limited cards...... How many have you collected? β
Cheng Peng was slightly stunned and shook his head blankly.
He's here to find clues to the seven beauties, and he's not here to clear the Island of Greed, so why is he looking for a hundred limited cards when he has nothing to do?
Cheng Peng and Wang Ji's two magic books also have a lot of cards in them, but they are basically money cards, or some antiques of good value, because the coins from the outside world are impassable here, so they collected a little along the way. Limitable cards or something, not only can not be easily cashed out, but also waste a lot of time, of course, they can't collect them along the way.
"Not a single one."
Phil sighed and shook his head with regret on his face.
"What a shame! You have not appreciated the charm of the island of greed! β
"Dude, we're here to find the Seven Beauties, not ......to play the Island of Greed," Wang Ji tried to convince him, but was blocked by Phil's words.
"Find ten limited cards and come back, I'm not going to tell anyone who has no interest in the game."
Because of his words, Cheng Peng and Wang Ji had to continue to waste time looking for limited cards everywhere on the Island of Greed.
Unlike regular cards, limited cards are small in existence and difficult to obtain...... That's all, and what's more troublesome is that there are a lot of players in this island of greed who are also collecting them.
All cards in the Island of Greed have a limit, and once you reach the limit, you can't turn them into cards, even if you get an item.
For example, yesterday morning, Cheng Peng took out a five-star monster called "Dr. Mad Artificial Man" after a lot of hard fighting, and finally captured the treasure called "Dr. Mad Muscle Enhancer".
According to the illustrated book, this item is a limited card with serial number 70. But when Cheng Peng used the card function, those boxes of 'medicine' gradually turned into cards with a faint white light...... Before the changes were complete, it reverted back to a bunch of cumbersome chests.
[Unfortunately, the number of surviving copies of this card has reached its limit, and this item cannot be cardified] Adventure 16
"!" When encountering this kind of thing, even Cheng Peng, who had a good temper, couldn't help but be furious, and slammed his embodied spear to the ground and scolded.
Wang Ji, who was sitting on the side, was so tired that he couldn't speakβhe was not a master like Cheng Peng, and the battle with the five-star monster was too difficult for him, and he was kicked by the strange man who was bruised all over his body, and almost killed him.
Wang Ji is the kind of player who is somewhere between technology and fighting, and has developed a chain leg that can kick up to a dozen kicks in one go, and can use dual guns like Yufei who once fought Cheng Peng in Gensokyo, but he prefers to use bombs in combat - small bombs such as grenades - to combat and firearms.
For an intelligence businessman, Wang Ji's skills are already very good. But no matter how good it is, he is not a combat player after all, and the various battles he has experienced these days are really too hard for him.
"Actually, you don't have to participate......" After Cheng Peng scolded a few words, his anger gradually subsided, ignoring the long spear that gradually disappeared, but sat down next to the pile of muscle enhancers, helplessly looked at these hard-to-carry boxes, and looked at Wang Ji who was tired and panting, and couldn't help but persuade, "I have received your information, and you also took me to see Phil, this mission is over......"
"Indeed, the mission is over." Because the game corner "color" was so tired that he couldn't speak, Wang Jisuo "sex" opened a private chat and replied by typing, "But I also want to see the legendary seven beautiful 'colors'!" β
"Then when I find it, I'll take it to you."
"That's not going to work! The most interesting thing about treasure hunting is not the treasure itself, but the process of treasure hunting! Wang Ji smacked a smiley face, "What's more, the information of the 'Seven Beauties' is very valuable in itself." If I can participate in the whole treasure hunt and write a report on the process, I will definitely increase my reputation as an intelligence dealer! β
"But it's going to waste a lot of time......"
"I'm here to play the game, and the picture is fun, so as long as it's fun, it's not a waste of time!" Wang Ji's attitude was very resolute, "Anyway, from now on, we are partners in the treasure hunt!" β
Seeing this, Cheng Peng couldn't help laughing.
"Okay." He went over and helped Wang Ji to the side of the box, and asked Wang Ji to help watch the goods first, while he set off and walked towards the nearest town, "Then let's work together and find out the seven beauties!" Partner! β
The value of "Doctor Mad Muscle Enhancer" has shrunk compared to the card, but it still has a good amount.
Cheng Peng and Wang Ji, who were resting in the hotel, counted the cards in their hands and couldn't help but worry secretly.
There's a lot of money - almost all the blank spaces in the magic book are taken up by money and valuable antiques, but there are not a few limited cards.
It took them four days to find a total of three limited cards. They are "Paladin's Jewelry" in Serial No. 84, "Doctor Mad Plastic Surgery Machine" in Serial No. 72, and "Doctor Mad Exodogen Agent" in Serial No. 71...... In fact, except for the first limited card, which is a championship prize in the fighting arena, the Doctor Mad series can be exploded from the five-star monster "Doctor Mad Cyborg", which is a relatively easy item to get started.
Cheng Peng and Wang Ji originally planned to collect all three cards of the Doctor Mad series by fighting monsters, but unexpectedly encountered the card limit......
"What's next?" Wang Ji was bored flipping through the magazines he bought on the street, "Why don't we go find a few players to grab them, maybe we can grab a few!" β
"It's better not to use this method as a last resort." Cheng Peng is not completely otherwise, "Although this game does not prohibit snatching other people's cards, I always feel that it will be very boring to use this method...... It's just a mere ten limited cards, can't we even achieve such a goal by conventional means? β
Recalling the situation in the past few days, Wang Ji couldn't help but sigh again.
In fact, in the Island of Greed, the most common way to get a limited card is to do quests. But Cheng Peng and Wang Ji are completely unfamiliar with the situation here, and they can really be called blind, even if they want to find a task, they don't know where to start, let alone collect cards through tasks.
In fact, most of the quests that lead to limited cards are well hidden, and few people are able to find them except for a few particularly professional experts and strongmen who are lucky enough to be against the sky. Adventure 16
In the original book, the protagonist Xiaojie found all the 100 limited cards in just half a year, which is not to say that those cards are easy to obtain, but this kid has all the templates for the protagonist, and his luck is so good!
Not to mention anything else, let's see that Butler has been recruiting masters for more than ten years, entering the game one after another, and sharing information within the group...... In the end, I couldn't get together a hundred limited cards, so I realized how secret these limited cards were!
Cheng Peng and Wang Ji are not experts in decryption, second, they are not masters of negotiation, and third, they do not have the atmospheric luck protection of the protagonist's template, and the progress is slow, which is also a matter of course.
The days passed gradually, and seven days had passed since the day I said goodbye to Phil.
Cheng Peng and Wang Ji's treasure hunting work has made some progress: Cheng Peng, with the keen intuition and amazing speed of an innate master, won the regular guessing competition in the bounty city of Andokiba and won the "Sword of Truth" with serial number 83; Wang Ji helped a down-and-out photographer find his work that was impersonated by others, and got the serial number 97 "3D camera"; Through intelligence, the two caught the "silver dog" with serial number 98 on the desolate mountain.
But they constantly feel the trouble caused by the lack of negotiation ability - many times, they can clearly see that the NPC has a task on it, and it is likely to be related to the limited card, but they just can't ask, which is really anxious and angry!
So, Cheng Peng finally made up his mind and dialed a friend's private chat.
"Winde, are you free? I want you to help. β
