Chapter 6: Windfall
Now that he has skills, Xiao Ce will of course start to level up hard, strive to upgrade a few more levels within 6 hours, and use the remaining 4 hours to save Wang Ze!
"Village Chief, I don't know if you need me to help you?" Xiao Li asked tentatively, he wanted to take on a task first. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The village chief was stunned for a moment, and was about to refuse, when he suddenly thought of something, "There is really one thing I need you to help me, but I don't know if you are free?" ”
Xiao Li was overjoyed, and quickly nodded: "Of course I am free, what does the village elder need me to do?"
"You know, there is only one pharmacist in the village, but somehow, I haven't seen a pharmacist since the day before yesterday. Can you help me find the pharmacist? The village chief said with a worried face.
[System]: You have successfully triggered a specific quest [Missing Pharmacist], please choose whether to accept it or not. Please note that due to the special nature of this mission, failure will result in severe penalties.
"Accept!"
[Missing Pharmacist]: The only pharmacist in the village has been missing for three days, and you can't dispense potions without a pharmacist, and the village chief wants you to find the pharmacist.
Requirements: Find the pharmacist Wang Ze within 40 hours and bring it back to the village.
Reward: Village Chief's opinion +15
Failure Penalty: Unable to get any quests from the village chief in the future.
All right! Xiao Li finally knew why no one took this particular task, and went 40 hours to find a big living person who had been missing for three days and didn't know where to go? And the failure penalty is so exaggerated! But-
Xiao Li grinned at the corner of his mouth, when he heard the village chief say that he was looking for pharmacist Wang Ze, he decided to take this task 100% next, who let the old man who let him be so lucky to save just now is Wang Ze!
In fact, this task can be said to be an impossible task, because Pharmacist Wang Ze has less than 10 hours of life left at this time, even if a player finds the NPC Pharmacist Wang Ze later, it is estimated that he is already a corpse that is about to stink!
"You can try to ask the pharmacist's wife, and go to the pharmacist's shop to see if there are any clues!" Seeing that Xiao Li actually took over the task, the village chief was naturally a little surprised, and his attitude towards Xiao Li was a little better.
[System]: Your performance has left a good impression in the village chief's heart, and the village chief's opinion of you is +5.
After a few polite replies, Xiao Li walked out of the village chief's house and followed the prompts on the map to a shop surrounded by many players.
Seeing an old woman with a melancholy face sitting in the store, Xiao Li was surprised to find that most of these players around were angry, and scolded the old woman:
"Do you sell or not? What do you want to make trouble when TM opens a store and doesn't sell anything? ”
"Yes, yes, I've been waiting for a long time, believe it or not, Lao Tzu asked someone to smash your shop?"
……
It seemed that the old woman in front of her was Wang Ze's wife, and Xiao Li walked over quickly.
Finally squeezed in from the crowd, Xiao Li looked at the starless old woman, and said softly, "I know where Wang Ze is!" ”
Although the voice was very soft, Xiao Li clearly saw the old woman's eyes light up, and then locked his gaze on him.
The old woman stood up suddenly, and asked Xiao Li with a trembling voice, "You...... Know where my wife is? ”
The other players were stunned, as if they had found a breakthrough, and rushed to say "I know!" one by one. "I know!" They all thought that there was a specific task hidden, and the scene was chaotic for a while, squeezing Xiao Li out.
"Shut up!"
“-99999!”
An invisible force suddenly burst out from the old woman's body, and all the players around the store except Xiao Li instantly turned into white light and came back to life, and dazzling bright red words appeared on her head!
"Who are you? How will you know where he is? The old woman, who had killed more than 20 players in an instant, did not change at all, and asked anxiously with a little expectation.
"Uh...... My name is Chopping Heart! Xiao Li was completely stunned by the methods of the old woman in front of him, who seemed to have no power to restrain the chicken, just by relying on her aura, she could instantly more than 20 players in seconds, and it was also an explosive output, what kind of wife did Wang Ze, the old man, marry?
Xiao Li nodded, then took out the black jade ring that Wang Ze gave him from the package and handed it to the old woman, "The village chief asked me to find the whereabouts of Old Pharmacist Wang, I found him on the outskirts of the Black Trigger Forest, but Old Pharmacist Wang has been bitten by the Black Scale Blood Snake, and now I need to find the Black Blood Flower for him!" ”
Seeing the black jade ring, the old woman was even more excited, and after taking it, she held it in her hand like an old bark, "It's all my fault!" If I hadn't told him that there was a Purple Moon Spirit Stone in the depths of the Black Induction Forest that could help me lift the curse, he wouldn't have gone to that dangerous place! ”
The old woman's annoyed words made Xiao Xi move, it seems that the old man Wang Ze told him that it was because the herbs were not enough to collect the medicine, and there seemed to be a hidden plot in it?
"Purple Moon Spirit Stone?" Taking the black jade ring handed to him by the old woman, Xiao Li made a surprised look.
"Oh?" Seeing Xiao Li's expression, the old woman asked in the same surprise, "Could it be that the little friend knows about the Purple Moon Spirit Stone?"
"I don't know, I've just heard of it!" As soon as Xiao Li saw that there was a play, he hurriedly continued to act and talked to the old woman.
"Heart-slashing little friend is really worthy of being a warrior who can reach the Secret Channeling Forest, and he has even heard of such a rare treasure as the Purple Moon Spirit Stone!" How did the old woman know that Xiao Li didn't understand anything about the Purple Moon Spirit Stone at all, and praised Xiao Li.
[System]: Since your dialogue has aroused the interest of the NPC Madame Wang, Madame Wang's opinion of you is +3.
Can this increase favorability? Xiao Li scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "I wonder if the seniors can tell the juniors the purpose of this Purple Moon Spirit Stone?" ”
"You don't need to call me senior, my surname is Hua, just call me Mrs. Wang!" Madam Wang waved her hand, signaling Xiao Li not to be so polite, "The Purple Moon Spirit Stone is a strange ore, and its greatest use is to be able to break most of the curses in the world, including the curses in my body now!" ”
"Then Old Pharmacist Wang went to the secret guide forest just to help Mrs. Wang find the Purple Moon Spirit Stone?" Xiao Li suddenly realized.
"I didn't expect him to be so impulsive and go to such a dangerous place alone!" Mrs. Wang said to herself again, "The little friend must save my wife!" ”
Xiao Li nodded, agreed to Mrs. Wang's request, and then asked with some puzzlement: "I think Mrs. Wang seems to be quite powerful, why can't I personally save Old Pharmacist Wang?" Madam Wang must have made it very easy to take the black blood flower, right? ”
"Alas!" Mrs. Wang sighed and said helplessly: "The effect of the curse in my body is that I can't leave the scope of this shop, otherwise I would have gone to find my wife a long time ago!"
"So?" Xiao Li nodded thoughtfully, "Then I wonder if I can help you find the Purple Moon Spirit Stone?" ”
Mrs. Wang was a little surprised, and only after a while did she slowly speak: "Since Xiaoyou is so heartfelt, then please Xiaoyou!"
[System]: You have successfully triggered the hidden specific task "Unsealing", which has been automatically accepted.
[Lift the Seal]: There is a strange curse in Mrs. Wang's body in the medicine shop, which requires the Purple Moon Spirit Stone to be lifted, please go to the depths of the Secret Guide Forest to find the Purple Moon Spirit Stone and give it to Mrs. Wang.
Requirements: Complete within 240 hours
Reward: Unknown
Failure Penalty: NPC Madame Wang's opinion is reset to zero, and future purchases of flasks here will cost double the price.
240 hours? It's 10 days, and I'm almost going to leave the novice village by then, hiding a specific task is another unknown reward, and it shouldn't be too bad!
"Madam Wang, don't worry, I will definitely go to the Secret Guide Forest to help you find the Purple Moon Spirit Stone and hand it over to you!" Xiao Li patted his chest, looking like "you can rest assured that I will do things"!
Seeing that Mrs. Wang smiled and nodded, Xiao Li was about to leave after saying goodbye to Mrs. Wang, but Mrs. Wang suddenly stopped him.
"Wait, little friend of the heart, since you are going to the Secret Guide Forest to help us, I just have some potions here that you use, you can bring them!" Madame Wang took out a bag from the cabinet behind her.
[System]: Because you have accepted the specific tasks "Rescue the Pharmacist" and "Break the Seal" at the same time, you will receive additional potions from Madame Wang.
Xiao Li was overjoyed, I didn't expect there to be such a benefit! He hurriedly took the bag that Mrs. Wang handed him, the bag was heavy, and it seemed that there were a lot of potions in it!
After all, it was a bit rude to open it on the spot, and after Xiao Li said goodbye to Mrs. Wang again, he left Wang Ze's pharmacy.
Looking at Xiao Li's distant back, Mrs. Wang suddenly smiled faintly. It's just that there is an unknown chill hidden in this smile.
It wasn't until Mrs. Wang couldn't see Xiao Li that Xiao Li couldn't wait to open the bag that Mrs. Wang gave herself-
[Advanced Life Potion] ×20: Instantly restores 1500 HP to the caster after use.
Cooldown: 15 seconds
[Advanced Magic Potion] ×20: Instantly restores 1000 mana to self after use.
Cooldown: 15 seconds
[Intermediate Life Potion] ×20: Instantly restores 1000 HP to the caster after use.
Cooldown: 30 seconds
[Intermediate Magic Potion]×20: Instantly restores 800 mana to self after use.
Cooldown: 30 seconds
There are 20 bottles of very useful potions each, and in the early game where player level 1 or 2 is common, these potions are absolutely very rare and high-end!
Xiao Li put the potions into his package, and then took out a bottle of black potion from the much lighter bag-
[Inferior Experience Potion] ×3: I don't know what to make a potion, the taste is very bitter, and the experience points are +50 after drinking.
At first, Xiao Li thought he was mistaken, but after reading it again, he confirmed that he was not mistaken, this black potion can really increase experience points by 50 points!
Looking at the bag, there are a total of 3 bottles of these black potions, which means that Xiao Li can instantly gain 150 experience points!
Isn't that too rebellious? There is even this potion in the game that can be used to gain experience points by drinking medicine? Although Xiao Li couldn't believe it, the data of this black potion was clearly written, it couldn't be a lie to him, right?
In fact, this kind of potion that can increase experience points is not nothing, it has appeared in "Demon Slayer", just a bottle of experience potion that can get 12,000 experience points was sold for a sky-high price of 300,000 yuan in the early game!
