Chapter.14 The Last Dragon Egg
Almost at the same moment as the five of them struggled to crawl out of the hole, the burrower's hole collapsed, and the dust that rose up took a long time to settle. And Xian Zimo also saw the hint that the task conditions had been achieved.
But now he was more concerned about the keel block in his backpack. The most important goal of his trip was to curry favor with the village chief in order to continue the plot of the "dragon", but he didn't expect to get a real thing directly now.
If the achievement of the super-indicator of the Boar Fangs quest is a precondition for triggering the "Dragon" plot, there is no doubt that this keel is the key item to drive the plot. Xian Zimo could feel that behind this plot involving dragons, there must be a huge reward, which made him a little excited.
"Oh! That's great! Finally cleaned up all those pesky bugs! ”
"It worked!"
"It's time to eat jam bread!"
At this time, the four NPCs beside him also shouted excitedly.
Seeing their happy appearance, Xian Zi couldn't help but be a little speechless. 'My heart is really big, and I am still happy to be tossed like this field. It's better not to clean up the diggers. ’
Follow the NPC four brothers to the farmhouse on the edge of the field to receive the task reward, and from a distance, they saw the fierce woman standing at the door of the farmhouse. There was such a big movement outside, and she naturally wouldn't be unaware, but there was no joy on her face.
"Mom! We've cleaned up all those bugs, can we give us jam? ”
As soon as Dabb finished speaking, his mother slapped him in the face.
Well done! Xian Zimo was secretly relieved in his heart and killed these pig teammates!
The peasant woman opened her voice and shouted, "You have made the field look like this, and you still want to eat jam?" To-morrow I will go fishing with your father, and if I don't earn ten silver coins, I'll slaughter you and make you scarecrows to look over the fields!" ”
Is this a stepmother? Xian Zimo was also taken aback by the peasant woman's pungency, and at this time, the other party looked at him.
"Boy, the outcome is not what I expected, but you did meet my requirements. But as punishment, you'll only get two jars of jam. ”
The peasant woman entered the house in a hurry, and soon came out with a jar of jam in each hand. "Take it!" After handing out the jam, she turned and walked back into the farmhouse.
'The Troubles of the Frye Family' Complete, Judged: Perfect'
'Reward: 50 XP. ’
'Rewards: [Snake Jam] ×1, [Purple Raspberry Jam] ×1'
Didn't you say, just the jam of the serpentine fruit? What's going on? Xian Zimo looked at the jam on his right hand with some dissatisfaction, but he didn't dare to come forward and knock on the door to exchange the goods. Come on, one can is enough.
He casually handed the purple raspberry jam to Dabu on the side: "Hey! You four, I'll give you this jar of purple, and I don't need it. "Anyway, keeping it will take up space in the backpack, so it's better to give it to the four NPCs who are already looking forward to it.
"To us? Thank you so much! After a moment of hesitation, eight more hands appeared on the glass jar.
"As for it?"
Xian Zimo smacked his lips. Just as he was about to leave, someone behind him shouted to stop him.
"My dear friend, we really don't know how to express our gratitude to you. After thinking about it, it seems that this is the only one that can be regarded as a gift, and I hope it can help you. Dab said, and shoved the "gift" into his hand.
'Obtain [Special Bait]'
I didn't expect to get a reward like this. Xian Zimo looked down at the thumb-sized [Special Fishing Bait] in his hand, which looked like it was nothing more than an unknown larva that had been dried in the sun. And it's just a simple line: the Dabb brothers' elaborate bait.
This reward doesn't seem really special. But fortunately, it is a small size item, which does not take up space in the backpack, so it doesn't matter if you put it away.
When he looked back, the four brothers over there were already dipping their fingers in the jam and starting to enjoy it. And the prompts for them to get out of the following state also jumped out one after another.
It's time to go back and report to the village chief. However, it is worth noting that until the mission was completed, there was no trace of restoration in the fields over there.
It seems that this realistic game does not have the setting of scene refresh and restoration after the mission. In this way, even if a player takes on the task of collecting snake fruits, they will not be able to get jam, let alone dragon bone blocks.
"Could it be that this plot is unique?"
Quickly returning to Yajiao Village, Xian Zimo went straight to the house of the village chief Abi, for fear that it would be too late, and the village chief also entered the sleep time. It's nearly three o'clock in the morning.
Fortunately, when he arrived, the village chief was still sitting under the tree he had been before, just as he had left a few hours earlier. Occasionally, a few players will come to him for a task.
"Chief Bitos, this time, I'll bring you what you like." Unconsciously, Xian Zimo was already somewhat accustomed to the dialogue mode of this game, and he stepped forward and took the initiative to speak.
"Quick! Give me the serpentine fruit! As soon as the greedy village chief heard this, he immediately jumped up.
"That's what I brought back." Xian Zimo didn't beat around the bush and directly handed over the [Snake Jam].
Abi snatched the jam away: "Hahaha! You got this! You're not just a warrior, you're a genius! ”
The NPCs in this game are all this virtue? Xian Zimo complained in his heart. At this time, Abi handed him two silver coins and a piece of tissue paper.
"Take it, you deserve it. With this ticket, you can go to the blacksmith and choose any weapon you like. After that, you come to me again, your trial out of the village is not over yet. ”
'[Delicious Serpentine Fruit] Finished, Judged: Perfect'
'Reward: 100 XP'
'Reward: 5 credits. ’
'Get Mission Reward: [Weapon Receipt Ticket (Nga Kok Village)] ×1 '
' opinion +50'
After a while, the village chief remembered something and said, "By the way, for the sake of you helping me two things, this is also for you." When I became the village chief, I didn't need it anymore. ”
'Get Extra Reward: [Adventurer's Purse]'
A backpack with 15 storage slots, and the number of item stacks has been increased to 20. This is indeed a pretty good bonus, but Xian Zimo did not focus on the new backpack.
He had more important things to hand over to the village chief. "Village Chief, do you know this thing?" Without any hints, he took the initiative to take out the [Dragon Bone Block].
"This ...... This is! Abi clenched his keel, and his whole body seemed to tremble, and after a long time, he raised his head and said in a trembling voice, "Go, come to my house and say." ”
Xian Zimo also knew that he had successfully triggered the plot, and he kept up with the other party's footsteps without saying a word.
The player next to him, who was about to hand in the task, was dumbfounded when he saw the village chief leaving. "What's going on? Didn't you say that this NPC would sit by the tree all night? ”
"Don't worry, I'll hand it in tomorrow, anyway, the blacksmith shop won't open until after seven o'clock. The next task can only be done tomorrow. ”
"The garbage game made by Corson Company, it's so troublesome to come out of a novice village!"
'Mention of sensitive words, Level 1 warning punishment, 1 hour ban. Attention players! ’
As soon as he entered the hut, Abi hurriedly lit the lamp in the room, and before the room could be brighter, he hurriedly ran into the room next to him, and a few seconds later returned to Xian Zimo with a worn-out book.
"My savior, please sit here!" The young village chief no longer had the steady appearance he had before, and pulled out a wooden chair next to him and said.
Xian Zimo sat down in his chair with some flattery, and Abi quickly sat down opposite him.
"Look, does this picture feel particularly familiar?" Abi flipped to a page in his notebook and pointed to the drawings outlined on it.
What is familiar, isn't that the painting just that he picked up a keel block? But what he picked up was just one of the bones in the painting. Before Xian Zimo could speak, Abi, who was excited on the other side, continued:
"According to the history of Yajiao Village, more than 100 years ago, one day after the fall of the gods and dragons, a wounded female dragon flew over the village."
He flipped the page, and the picture in the notebook changed with the story: "Soon, an army of the Firmament Empire followed. At that time, as now, they were temporary allies of the Ancient Kingdom. They said it might be the last dragon in the world and that it had to be found, and now it seems that they are not lying. At that time, Yajiao and several surrounding villages sent men to lead the foreign army of the Firmament Kingdom to find the female dragon. ”
Abi skillfully flips through the notebook and gets to the next stage of the story: "A few days later, they found the female dragon in the valley of Longmian, which was not yet called that at that time. Although it was already a corpse when it was found, it was revealed that it had laid eggs not long ago. Just as everyone wanted to get close to the corpse of the female dragon, a meteorite wrapped in raging flames suddenly fell from the sky, which shattered and ignited the corpse, and finally the female dragon completely disappeared in a burst of explosions. ”
"For the next few days, everyone was looking for the eggs laid by the female dragon in the Dragon Sleep Valley. But nothing came of it. In the end, the army of the Firmament Country could only believe that the dragon egg was burned into ashes by the meteorite along with the corpse of the mother dragon, and then the whole army chose to leave. ”
Hearing this, if Xian Zimo can't hear any clues, it will really be a game for nothing. "Is the dragon egg really gone?"
"Here's the point, my friend!" The village chief's name changed again. He quickly flipped back a few pages:
"The body of the female dragon was found in a clearing, and according to what the ancestors knew about the dragon. It is impossible for a female dragon to lay her eggs in that kind of place! So, several villages approached a well-known fortune teller in the neighborhood and asked her to give some information about dragon eggs. And the paintings just now are the answers she gave. ”
"She drew the samples of those keel blocks just now?" Xian Zimo was also taken aback, the outline and shape of the bone block drawn were almost exactly the same as the bone block he had picked up!
"I drew it according to the original drawing." The village chief nodded in the affirmative and replied, "The soothsayer said that the dragon egg is still in that valley waiting for the people of destiny to wake it up. And the person who gets all the bones on the painting is the one chosen by fate. ”
Xian Zimo felt a little outrageous: "How long ago did this happen?" Maybe the dragon egg has already hatched, or maybe it's dead......"
Ah Zhong slammed the table and interrupted, "What stupid things are you talking about?" That's a dragon egg! Without proper hatching, it will simply fall into a long sleep. And it can even sleep until a thousand years from now, and then wake up! The mother dragon must have hidden it somewhere in the Longmian Valley! ”
Xian Zi could see that the village chief was an avid "fan" of the dragon clan. "You want to find it?" He asked.
"It's not me, it's you. You must be the one of destiny! Although I have been chasing the legend of the dragon all my life, it is you who fate chooses. Are you willing to accept this mission? ”
'Trigger the hidden main quest: [The Last Dragon Egg], do you accept it?' ’
