Act 12: Dilemma and Attack
Act 12: Dilemma and Attack
When the divine power of the sun god was fully revealed on this grassland, Su Chen's business trip began to trek again.
The captain of the caravan, Wales, could swear by the fact that it was the first time in his career as a traveling merchant for more than a decade that he had encountered such a difficult situation. Both villages were destroyed by necromancers, and along the way they experienced a night march; undead attack, and finally in order to get supplies, he even had to storm a village that had been corrupted by necromancers. If it weren't for the help of the strong barbarian hero and the archer, perhaps Wales would have chosen to throw away all their cargo and travel to Redwood Town lightly, so that at least none of them would starve to death.
And now, for the sake of enough goods to bankrupt Wales, he had to venture to the barbarian station, the source of the stream hidden between the grasslands and the mountains.
And Su Chen was unfortunately also in the advancing team - because of his outstanding performance when he met that necromancer, he won the favor of Brussel and the others, and also demonstrated his importance as a spellcaster. Wales has promised that if Su Chen also comes to help in this matter, in addition to refunding the travel expenses of the 1 gold coin, Wales will also give another one as a reward.
In addition, his epic mission was obviously related to the necromancer who was still alive, so Su Chen readily agreed.
What's more, with the help of Kodil and the barbarian hero Wall-Treacher along the way, if everything goes according to the best outcome, Su Chen may only need one soy sauce fight to complete an epic mission - wouldn't it be beautiful?
At this time, riding on the previous mule, Su Chen also studied every option on this system thoroughly. Naturally, there was help, for example, he found a 'nap' that was different from rest. Rest can restore all spell slots and psionic powers, restore all health, remove most negative stats, and even a good rest can slightly improve the character's stats. But the 'rest' takes at least 8 hours. The nap is a 5-minute break for each class level to restore all your health and spell slots, but that's about it.
It's also important to note that if a spellcasting class such as a mage or cleric changes the spells in their spell books, then re-memorization requires a break rather than a break.
However, apart from small discoveries like this, Su Chen still didn't find a way to withdraw himself from the game state. For example, options such as forced logout have not been found.
He had been sitting on the mule and enduring the bumps after he had recovered his pitiful 2 psionic points - to be honest, if a person living in a modern metropolis went to ride a mule in the Middle Ages, then he would probably have the same bleeding from grinding on his inner thighs as Su Chen, and as the mule continued to bump up and down, Su Chen felt as if his body was about to fall apart - all because Su Chen didn't know how to ride, otherwise he should know how to protect himself.
Fortunately, their trip didn't last long.
When the sun was about to climb to its highest point, a rolling mountain appeared in front of them, and when they stood at a very distant place and looked there, it was as if they saw an eternal wild beast crawling forward, and when you really approached this endless mountain range, you would be impressed by its vastness and majesty. And the caravan, led by Wales, who was familiar with the road, found a way into the mountains in a relatively hidden place.
Of course, the caravans did not send all of them into the barbarian garrison, they only sent the most elite men, such as Bruso; Kodir; Wall - the tyrant; A few mercenaries as well as Su Chen. They checked that their equipment was correct before they set out on their way, the stream by the side of the road emitted an inexplicable green glow, this disgusting green fluorescence could be traced upstream along the stream, and if it was not bad, the source should be the old barbarian station.
"It doesn't look like it's going to be rosy." "If the water here is polluted, it will flow down this stream to the Northland Fort. It's almost impossible to imagine how many people will be poisoned by the pollution here. ”
Su Chen looked down at the green fluorescence in the stream in front of him - there is no doubt that the water here is undrinkable, so how much water does it need to be diluted before it will not cause harm to the human body? Su Chen didn't have an optimistic estimate. Brusso was also a little stunned and said: "There are not many necromancers who are so arrogant in history, this is completely killing for the sake of killing, there is no reason, only an evil and cold heart." ”
Even bloodthirsty animals don't kill for reasons other than food, and the necromancer who does this is completely incapable of using human morality, and he is undoubtedly in the camp of chaotic evil—and the deepest chaotic evil.
[Sure enough, as I expected, the calamity caused by the necromancer continues. I have to find out all this. At this time, Su Chen's task list page was updated like this - Su Chen knew that this task log only provided some necessary task hints, and how did Su Chen complete this task? There is no indication in the log at all. Maybe Su Chen could purify this water source at the source, or maybe he could report it to the temple or lord at this time, or of course he could ignore it completely.
Because the mission did not require Su Chen to solve this crisis at all.
If this world still belongs to the framework of "Authority", then Su Chen is allowed to complete the task no matter what method he uses, and there is no task in the authority where there is only one way to choose. The game is so free that it's suitable for players of any faction to choose their own path.
Of course, some faction-biased missions have faction restrictions.
But at this time, Su Chen had almost no choice, he knew that the female knight he had met before, as well as the barbarians who had passed by before, were all possible helpers to complete this epic task. But there is only one problem in front of him - his charm attribute is too low, and those guys don't like him one by one!
So he could only choose the most difficult method to complete, of course, in a sense, this method is quite simple.
Because it's so simple that it can be summed up in just one sentence.
it!
