Chapter 4: An Unexpected Hidden Mission (Part I)
Whoosh - Wow!
The sharp arrow slammed into the wind fox trying to escape with great force, bringing a fountain of blood, and at the same time, the wind fox's body was shocked, and his feet immediately slowed down - this is Scarlett's impact arrow, and it is also a rare remote control skill in the early stage. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Aesop stepped forward and slashed diagonally with the long sword in his hand, immediately letting the wind fox, who was already seriously injured, settle the account.
It is worthy of being a level 12 Warcraft, even if it is shared by Scarlett, it also gives Aesop a full 200 points of experience, allowing him to immediately rise to level 8 - since settling down, Aesop has begun to follow Scarlett into the mountains to hunt. Saying that it is "hunting" is actually killing monsters, and Scarlett, as an elite among the quest NPCs and aborigines, is not only familiar with various monster farms near Tonya, but also has a significantly higher level than novice players. According to Aesop's estimation, he has to be at least promoted to the fourteenth or fifteenth level to catch up - an instructor of such a level, especially a beautiful instructor who is pleasing to the eye, and he is an immortal Xiaoqiang natural 666, and the leveling progress in the past few days is more than a flying feeling.
What's more, Old Custer and Scarlett also taught basic swordsmanship, tracking, gathering, herb identification, and bandaging without reservation. You know, ordinary players want to learn everything, and they don't know how much effort it takes to do tasks and sets, but Aesop works with them, not only does not have to pay tuition, but has daily wages and herbs, and even changes clothes. Although it was only E-level ordinary equipment, such an empty glove white wolf had already brought tears to his eyes.
At this moment, enjoying the warm current of the upgrade, Aesop, who was in a good mood, while collecting the materials of the wind fox, called out the panel to look at the rankings, but found that he still failed to enter the top ten of the master list, and the first "world squid" seemed to have entered the main city.
"Tsk, a master is a master, even if he opens the hanging, he can't stand up to others." Aesop sighed, turned her head to look at the sun, and smiled at Scarlett, "Teacher, it's not too early, let's go back." ”
"How many times have I told you, don't call me teacher." Scarlett gave him a blank look, then nodded again, "Okay, today's harvest is enough, let's go back quickly, Vera is still waiting for me to pick her berries." ”
Aesop laughed, teased a few more words, and then, as usual, she and Scarlett hurried back to the old house at the east end of the village.
But when they approached the door, the two of them realized that something was wrong, there was a mess outside the old house, and the door was open but the figure of the old Custer could not be seen.
"Damn, which miscellaneous hair is going to smash the field?!" Aesop was shocked, and drew her long sword, and Scarlett on the side also clenched the steel dagger she was carrying, and the two of them walked one after the other, walking towards the doors and windows separately.
When I looked closer, the house was in shambles, and the old man was screaming to the ground, but there was no other figure in sight.
The two exchanged glances and rushed into the house together, Aesop on guard and Scarlett picking up Old Custer.
"Grandpa, are you alright? What about Vera? "What's wrong, old man?"
Seeing that there was no surprise, the two asked in unison.
The old man's complexion was not bad, and when he saw that they were both surprised and anxious, he shouted tremblingly: "You two are back, cough, a few powerful characters sneaked up on me and actually robbed Vera, they just left, you should hurry up and chase it!" ”
"What, Vera was kidnapped?!" The two of them were shocked, and then, the system prompt popped up in front of Aesop's eyes:
[Save Vera? Karst (D+ Rank/Hidden Mission)] Just now, several thugs of unknown origin attacked Old Custer and kidnapped the old man's little granddaughter Vera, and hurried to help Scarlett catch up, this is a good opportunity for you to repay the kindness of the Custer family. (Valid for 8 hours)
The sudden message made Aesop stunned, and then her heart fluttered - if you want to get good goods in the novice village, the most direct way is to take the task; The D+-level task is not big or small, and it is already considered advanced in the novice village, not to mention the word "hidden", and the reward must be expensive.
"Aesop, let's catch up, I'm worried about Vera!"
Scarlett's anxious words pulled Aesop back from her imagination, and he couldn't help but wonder at the worry on her face, and then the old Custer's care.
Eh, no, it's just artificial intelligence, why should I be ashamed?!
Aesop was awkward again, but for the sake of the hidden mission, he didn't think about it for the time being, glanced at old Custer, and asked, "What about the old man?" ”
"It's just a few sneak attacks, and I'm not that unbearable." Old Custer relieved his muscles and bones, and said in a continuous voice, "Don't worry about me, hurry up, it's too late!" ”
Both grandparents and grandchildren are resolute in their temperament, Scarlett didn't say long-winded, said take care, and pulled Aesop out of the door.
"You two also take care, the other party has some special props, be careful!"
The old man's instructions came from behind him, and the two of them had already rushed into the twilight. With Scarlett's hunting experience, he had already done a careful survey after entering the house, and at this time, following the clues left by the other party, he didn't have too much effort to follow-Isolt couldn't figure out why this task was set as D+-level, with such a strong foreign aid, he was probably a starter, and it was a bit over-the-top to say that it was D-level.
However, after walking a little way, he realized that something was wrong. The destination of their journey is like the gloomy barrier on the southwest side of Tonya - this is the area that all novice villages have, in Tonia it is a forest, in other novice villages it may be lakes, swamps, etc., but they are all shrouded in a terrifying dark mystery, and the task of leaving the village at level 10 is to hunt some kind of elite monster on the periphery of the puzzle, and sacrifice the magic crystals dropped by the monster to the sanctuary unique to the novice village, and then you can teleport to the main city. Looking at the current posture, it is obvious that he wants to break into the depths of the maze, and the danger can be imagined. However, Scarlett, who was worried about her sister, obviously did not plan to retreat, which made Aesop unspeakably entangled.
But after a while, Scarlett stopped, her eyebrows furrowed, and her face was terrifyingly gloomy.
"What's wrong, what's the problem?" Aesop asked cautiously.
"The trail of the gangsters suddenly broke off, as if they had disappeared......"
"Ah, what can I do?" Aesop couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't believe that anyone in the Novice Village could escape Scarlett's tracking, but considering the special nature of the Gloomy Enchantment, some things couldn't be said for sure.
"I remember something." Scarlett's voice was so cold that Aesop trembled faintly, "Not long ago, there was also an accident where the little girl was kidnapped, and Uncle Leto also chased it around, and then the clue was broken. ”
"Oh my God, that's Vera......" Aesop was also anxious at this time.
"Actually, it's not completely without clues." Scarlett replied, "At that time, Uncle Leto solved a gangster, but I didn't expect the gangster to turn into white light, and he didn't even leave a corpse. ”
"The Chosen?!" Aesop's face changed greatly, and then after thinking about it, he had a score in his heart: with the urine nature of "Hero", since he can take on this task, of course someone can also take on the opposite task.
"Yes, it's the Chosen One. Obviously, the Chosen One is involved, but we can't do anything about them, Vera, she ......"
Speaking of this, Scarlett couldn't go on anymore, and her face was completely devoid. Aesop couldn't help but panic a little in her heart, and she didn't know what to say with her mouth open.
Eh, no, no, why am I wasting my feelings with artificial intelligence? Hidden missions are the key!
Aesop shook her head again and again, and suddenly, a flash of light flashed in her head.
"There you have it, I've figured it out!"
Aesop shouted excitedly, Scarlett's eyes lit up, and she asked excitedly, "Aesop, what can you do?" ”
Aesop thought about the wording and opened her mouth to run the train: "I'll tell you honestly, don't look at me as a Nordronin, and I once received the Apocalypse. Hey, hey, if the Chosen One gets involved, I'll naturally have a way to find it. ”
said, without waiting for Scarlett to ask, he opened the system panel, flipped into the forum help section, and opened a post in addition to three clicks:
[Naked air luxury in the snow for three and a half weeks and a half kneeling and begging] Brother, I recently took over a task in the novice village, saying that I wanted to kidnap a little Lori. For a while, I forgot where to deliver the goods, and the trouble was a private message from a master who knew it, and everything was easy to discuss.
Not long after the post was sent, several floors were built:
First floor: LZ actually attacked Lori, it's just a loss of heart, begging to bring!
Second floor:, there is such a dirty task, please bring it!
Third floor: Upstairs a group of old drivers, begging for +10086
……
Aesop looked at it for a while - what kind of people are they, all the special lolita, not killing is not enough to anger the people.
Luckily, it didn't take long for a "waltz?" Rumba", as soon as it was connected, the other party split his head and said: "Kidnapping the young girl, right?" Without further ado, 1 silver coin will give you a way to enter the gloomy enchantment. ”
Damn, where can I find such a conscious honest person~~ I'm so witty!
Aesop was overjoyed, thanks to the blessing of the old Caster's family, he had saved more than a gold coin during this time, and he was still willing to spend this little necessary onion money. Immediately, he gave the other party 1 silver coin through the transaction system - there is an intermediary platform similar to Alipay as a guarantee, and he is not worried about the other party's fraud.
Soon, instructions for the route arrived. It turns out that there is a teleportation array built on trees and rocks at the entrance of the enchantment, and as long as you use the token you get when you take the mission, you can activate the teleportation and go straight to the mission NPC. The problem is that Aesop doesn't have the token to activate.
Aesop, who had no choice but to reveal the news to Scarlett, was pleasantly surprised when she heard the news, but she did not ask the reason very reasonably, but quickly proposed a solution.
"We can ask Grandpa Maud for help." Scarlett said.
Old Man Maud is the witch doctor of Tonya, and the only spell NPC in the Novice Village, and players who have a career plan such as a priest and a mage must ask him to teach skills. And the system will not issue unsolvable tasks, Aesop pondered, the reason why the task is set to D+ level may be because it is more troublesome to find clues, but whether it is to take shortcuts by yourself, or to honestly find clues, and turn a thousand waves, it should eventually require old Maude to make a move.
Sure enough, when the two of them turned back and invited Old Maude, the old man only glanced at it twice, and immediately found the doorway.
"Wait a minute, I'll be able to break the circle and teleport you over soon." Old Maud explained, while taking out all kinds of materials and arranging them - looking at this battle, Isolt estimated that under normal circumstances, asking Old Maud for help and preparing spell casting materials was also one of the troubles of D+ level tasks, but with Scarlett brushing her face, this difficulty suddenly became a difficulty.
After a while, at the mercy of old Maud, a deep black hole appeared in front of Aesop.
"It's a pity, I really can't follow along, you two must be careful!" Old Maude earnestly advised.
Aesop and Scarlett looked at each other, nodded, and stepped into the black hole on alert.
