Chapter 4 Legendary Special NPCs

V. SchlauskiSchlauski has always considered himself a literary youth. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Schlausky has the blood of half fighting nation and is very burly, so when Schlausky entered the game, several friends recommended Schlausky to play Warrior.

But Schlausky, who prides himself on being a literary and artistic youth, is clearly not happy. I am a literary and artistic youth, how can I play such a rude and violent profession? Therefore, Schlausky decisively chose to become a mage - a literary mage who loves nature and loves adventure!

Schlausky is what players often refer to as a "quest stream" mage. Mainly rely on running plots and missions to level up, although the upgrade speed is not as fast as those kitchen knife monster farming streams, but Schlauski enjoys the process of the mission and the various plots and stories in the game.

Although some players feel that Io World is not very good, the so-called "completely real world" is just bragging! And the world in the game is indeed similar to that of a typical "big online game", but Schlauski finds that there seems to be a deeper secret waiting to be discovered in this game.

For example, now......

In order to do a mission, Schlausky went to the Earth Temple in the Newbie Village, intending to ask the priest to buy a few buffs BUF. For Schlausky, this was a very common thing, and then Schlausky was surprised to see a man wearing only a pair of shorts straight into the backyard of the Earth Temple!

Someone entered the backyard of the Earth Temple?

As a quest stream mage, Schlausky is well aware that behind the temple is an inaccessible area for the player - there are not many such areas in the game. For example, some private houses, some more private rooms, etc.

According to players' experience, these areas are not accessible because the owner of the house is unwilling to let strangers in. If you want to enter, you must brush the favorability of the owner of the area to a certain level!

Schlausky looked at the priest in the Temple of Earth.

――――

Maiwen (Silver, Opinion: 300 "Friendly")

The priest of the Earth Goddess, the head of the Earth Goddess Church in Karp Town, has a high reputation in Karp Town.

――――

The opinion is already 300! According to the players' summary, before 300, you can increase your opinion by "sending money", but after 300, you can only increase your opinion through some special events. Pastor McVen never posts quests or special events, so Pastor McVen's opinion can only stop at 300.

300 opinion, Maiwen still hasn't opened the backyard to the player. Therefore, the player guesses that the key point of this temple's "area unlock" should be on that special NPC.

"The one that just went in doesn't look like an NPC, it feels like it's a player......" Schlausky touched his chin and stood where Green had just entered, waiting for Green to come out.

Schlausky wanted to ask the player about the situation.

While waiting, Schlausky opened the system and went to the forum to check the information and strategies about the temple and several special NPCs.

After a few moments, Schlausky was surprised to find a big-breasted priest girl coming out of the inner sanctum.

I'll go! How did it come out of her? Schlausky glanced at the row of question marks above the priest girl's head, not even her name.

Schlauski took two steps back and moved out of the way. The priest girl had a large "NPC protective aura" around her, and Schlausky didn't want to bump into it - it didn't hurt, but it didn't feel good to be pushed open by a wall.

Soon, the priest girl walked out, stood next to Pastor McVin, and ......

An exclamation mark appeared above the priest girl's head!

Exclamation mark!?

Task!?

This special NPC is actually about to release a mission!?

Schlausky was stunned for a second, and rushed over excitedly!

Sure enough, the "NPC Protection Aura" that originally surrounded the priest girl shrank a lot, and Schlausky went directly to the priest girl's side.

"Is there a "mission"?" Schlausky directly said a key word.

Communication between the player and the NPC is carried out through "keywords", and if the keyword is not spoken, then the NPC will not pay attention to the player. Among them, "task" is the most commonly used keyword.

……

Mitchell walked to the church in front of the temple, and just as he had the idea of issuing a commission, there was a flaw in the [Heart Wall], and then, a very tall and looking blond young man instantly rushed in front of Mitchell.

Seeing the blonde youth's long, pointy ears, Mitchell knew that the other party was an elf. However, the other party's rough appearance and physique did not meet the elf's evaluation of "slender" and "beautiful" at all, but looked like a barbarian.

Schlausky: "Is there anything I can do for this lady?" ”

Mitchell looked at the young man in front of her with a look of discomfort. The enthusiasm of the players made Mitchell feel very uncomfortable.

Although she felt very uncomfortable, when Mitchell thought of Green's instructions, she still held back the discomfort in her heart and said indifferently: "Lost in time, I need some writing tools. Could you please help me bring me a thousand pieces of parchment, two bottles of ink, and two quills? ”

As soon as Mitchell's words fell, a task appeared in front of Schlausky's eyes.

――――

Historical Mission: Commissioned by the Mystic Priest

Task Description: A pastor wants you to send some writing instruments.

Requirements: Send 1,000 pieces of parchment, 2 bottles of ink, and 2 quills to the mysterious priest within a certain period of time.

Difficulty: White porcelain 5 stars

Completion Rewards: ???

――――

Historical Mission!? What is that!?

The type of mission he had never seen before, which made Schlausky's breath quicken.

Schlausky hurriedly took a picture of the task using the photo function, and at the same time took the task without hesitation!

This Nima is definitely a special hidden mission!

As soon as the task was confirmed, Schlausky noticed a timer appear above the task.

I'll go! Or a time-limited mission? Well...... It's not a countdown, which means that the faster you complete a mission, the more rewards you get?

Schlausky quickly made a judgment in his heart, and without hesitation, he opened the mall and bought a set of speakers in the mall!

"Ten times the market price, urgently buy 10,000 pieces of parchment, 20 bottles of ink, 20 quills! Trade at the Temple of the Earth Goddess in the Novice Village of District 1! ”

"Ten times the market price, urgently buy 10,000 pieces of parchment, 20 bottles of ink, 20 quills! Trade at the Temple of the Earth Goddess in the Novice Village of District 1! ”

……

Schlausky frantically uses the loudspeaker to swipe information on the world channel!

The players in the novice village were directly stunned.

"I'm grass! Tyrants! ”

"Parchment? It's in the grocery store. ”

"I'm rubbing! The parchment in the grocery store has been sold out!? ”

The town of Cap doesn't produce parchment, so the number of items in the grocery store is very limited, and the demand for these items is low, so only a few players who play "Runner" may have a lot of parchment in their hands.

Outside the town of Karp, a player who was running a business was stunned when he saw the loudspeaker on the World Channel.

"District 1 Newbie Village? Parchment? The player with the ID of Apple Hero glanced at the system map, estimated the distance, and immediately began to rush in the direction of the novice village.

At the same time, Apple Hero called up the system and prepared to change the area.

The game has a number of zones, each independent of each other, which the player will not encounter, but the player can jump between the zones. Generally, the players who set up stalls are in the first district, so there are more people in the first district, which is more crowded, and sometimes you even need to queue up to get in. Merchants obviously don't want to be "crowded" with players, so merchant players are usually used in areas with a small number of players.

Change Zone......

"There are too many players in the current area. Please play in a different area."

Hot! Where's the cheat!?

Apple hero had to contact the buyer through the social system, wanting to ask if the other party could trade in a different area.

"Changing districts?" Schlausky glanced at the priest girl in the church and refused without hesitation, "No." I can't change districts, you can use the mall's 'crowd card' to force a squeeze into zone 1. ”

――――

Squeeze Card: Mall item. Players can force their way into a zone regardless of the congestion and will not drop due to congestion for an hour.

――――

Apple Hero: "Local tyrant! A 'squeeze card' costs 100 rolls! ”

The other side was silent for a few seconds.

"Where are you? How much parchment is there? ”

"I'm on the way outside the novice village, and I estimate that there will be ten minutes to get to the novice village. In the case of parchment, I have 100,000 sheets. ”

"Okay! I've given you a 'squeeze card', as long as you can get there in time before I complete the acquisition, I'll have all your parchment!" "In order to hide the task, Schlausky has fought hard, and he has completely disregarded the cost.

Apple Man: "...... Okay, local tyrant, I'll try to get there. ”

Seeing the squeezing card in the mall's email, Apple Hero thought about it, didn't use it for the time being, and began to keep squeezing to the first area.

"There are too many players in the current area. Please play in a different area."

"There are too many players in the current area. Please play in a different area."

……

Apple Hero squeezed and rushed to the novice village. However, until Apple Hero arrived at the novice village, he still couldn't squeeze in......

"It seems that there really can't be helped." Apple Hero sighed and used the local tyrant card...... Ah, no, it's the "squeeze card", and I squeezed directly into the first area smoothly.

When Apple arrives at the entrance of the novice village, the content of the loudspeaker has also changed.

"Ten times the market price, urgently purchase 9,800 pieces of parchment, seven bottles of ink! Trade at the Temple of the Earth Goddess in the Novice Village of District 1! ”

Apple hero glanced at the message and understood that the other party had already bought all the quills he needed, only ink and parchment.

The quill pen is a prop made with the [handmade] skill, and one white goose can make several of them! So it's a no-brainer to be able to buy them quickly, but it's hard to buy ink and parchment in a matter of minutes - after all, players don't use them much, and no one is going to hoard them.

When Apple arrives at the church, he is surprised to find that the outside of the church is crowded with players, many of whom are blocked outside the church.

"What's the situation!? It's not time to work in a church, how can there be so many people? Apple hero couldn't help but glance at the time.

Under normal circumstances, very few players would come to church, and Apple Man was a little confused to see so many players running to church.

The thought of the acquirer's request for a deal at the church led to some speculation.

"I'm at church, where are you?" Apple Man turns on the social system and contacts Schlausky.

Schlausky: "I'm in church. I've added you as a friend, so you can just use the 'Wear Card' to come in." ”

Apple hero looked at the "wearer card" in the mall email, and a trace of flesh pain couldn't help but appear on his face! That's all money!

I really don't understand the world of local tyrants.

Apple Man glanced at the players who were stuck outside the church, sighed, and used the "Wear People Card".

――――

Wearer Card: Ignore all players except friends, teammates, and guild members for one hour.

――――

In a scene like this, you don't need to wear a person card, you can't get in at all!

When Apple Man used the Piercing Card, the world was instantly cleared.

At a glance, there was no one around, except for a smiling blonde elf player at the entrance of the church - elves are one of the paid races, and the characteristics of high sensitivity and intelligence are quite popular with local tyrant players. The flaws are that they have low Constitution and Strength stats, and experience penalties when leveling up.

Apple Man took the parchment from the carriage and put it in the pocket for "trade goods" and resisted it to the door of the church.

"Tuhao, you want 100,000 pieces of parchment." Apple Man is about to enter the church, only to find an invisible wall blocking his path.

Touching his head and looking at the rectangular ripples in front of him, Apple Hero was stunned: "NPC protection aura? Actually shrouded the whole church? ”

Schlausky stood within the scope of the halo and said to Apple Hero with a smile on his face: "Just order the roll transaction, no problem, right?" ”

"Yes." As a businessman, Apple Hero also has some understanding of the boldness of these "local tyrant players".

The deal was quickly completed, and Schlausky hurried to the church with more goods than the task needed.

Apple Man stood at the door of the church, carefully observing the situation inside the church through the [NPC Protection Aura].

The use of the church is twofold:

1. Spend money to heal injuries or gain buff BUF. The player cannot be converted to a priesthood, so the priest's magic is still NPC-only for now. When leveling up, local tyrant players will generally go to the church to find an NPC priest to buy a BUFF to hang in the magic spell, so as to improve the leveling efficiency for a certain period of time.

2. Obtain holy water through part-time tasks. Holy water can increase the damage to certain monsters, while reducing the damage rate of equipment and slowing down wear and tear, it is a very useful thing, and it is a standing consumable of the melee class. Therefore, the day when the part-time job tasks are released every week is the busiest day for the temple.

Except for local tyrant players, few people will spend money on BUF. However, when Apple Man was a novice, he went to the church every week to do "part-time tasks", so he was very clear about the layout of the church.

Therefore, Apple Man can see the anomaly in the church at a glance.

"The female pastor is...... Rumored special NPCs!? Apple's eyes widened, "Are there really any hidden missions on those special NPCs?" ”
