"How do you know so well?" The Assassin looked at me in astonishment, apparently realizing that he had failed to show off.

"President Purple Sun, why are you here?" One of the two horsemen at the front of the cavalry stopped beside me and asked. His question also happened to explain the problem of the assassins, since the other party was obviously familiar with me, so I knew that their formation was also normal.

Instead of looking at the assassin again, I turned to the cavalryman and asked, "How did you get out?" ”

The knight immediately said in a very anxious voice, "That...... That is true! Master Detans found a Precept Stone and ......! ”

I reached out and stopped her from continuing. "Then you don't have to look for it, it's with me."

"Huh? What the? The knight was stunned for a moment, and then heard a commotion among the cavalry behind her, and several of them drew their weapons. The knight regained her composure when she heard the sound of weapons rubbing, and she quickly turned around and reprimanded loudly: "Put away the weapons for me, have your heads been purified by the God of Light?" Does President Purple Sun need to grab the Stone of Precepts? Are we going to send it to him or not? ”

The cavalry then reacted and dismounted and saluted to apologize, and I waved casually to show that I didn't mind. The knight in the lead jumped down and took off his helmet, and I heard a surprised breath behind me. I know they were thundered by the knight's appearance. The knight in front of him is not only a woman, but also beautiful and not human-like, if it weren't for the fact that this plate armor doesn't look like a fake, it would be difficult for others to think that this is an impostor. In fact, this can't be considered a regular cavalryman strictly speaking, because she is one of Ditans' personal guards. This time, she was probably sent out because the things that were lost were too invisible, so it was inconvenient to send ordinary people out to find them.

The female knight said to me with some embarrassment, "That...... Lord Purple Sun, it's not that I don't believe you, but can you show us the Precept Stone? ”

"It's okay, it's okay if you help me hold it first." I took the Precept Stone out of the phoenix dragon space and handed it to her.

The knight carefully took the precept stone with trembling hands, and then handed it back excitedly. "That and that...... President Purple Sun, you better take it first! We are afraid of losing it again! ”

I didn't mind retracting the Precept Stone and said, "You can go back with me now, right?" ”

"Well, of course, there's no point in running out since we've found it." The female knight seemed to notice the players behind me. "Are these the friends of President Purple Sun?"

"Oh, they're probationary members waiting for the test, and if they pass the test, they'll be our full members."

"Oh. That's right! Then let's go together. ”

With the Dark Temple's internal guards guarding us, we quickly returned to the Dark Temple. The leveling team I brought with me was kept out by the guards, they weren't full members of our guild after all, and they couldn't enjoy the same treatment as me, but that mage M was in special care of him. The biggest advantage of the Dark Temple over the Temple of Light is that it never puts on a show, and all the offices for the player are completely serving the customer as God like a for-profit store, and all players who come to the procedure will definitely realize how enthusiastic the service of the Dark Temple is. In contrast, the Temple of Light is the opposite, they generally think of themselves as gods, negotiate with the player on the shelf, and punish you if you don't agree with it.

Led by the inner guard, we walked through the office area where regular players were accommodated. Mage M was also left here, and the area behind it was a secret part for the Dark Temple, and ordinary people would never be able to enter it. As soon as I passed through the Foreign Affairs District, I was completely blown away by what I saw. I remember the last time I visited, the Dark Temple felt like a mixture of majesty and dignity, but now the complex in front of me looked like it had just been in battle. The walls that were originally magnificently gilded on a black background are now littered with large chunks falling off everywhere. In many places, there are even large holes that can see the sky. The ceiling, which used to depict mythological stories, is now like a screen, but it feels like it's getting a lot more sunlight than before.

I was a little surprised and asked the guard who showed me the way. "This shouldn't have been done by the people who robbed the Stone of Discipline, right?"

"Who else do you think can make me like this but them?" It wasn't the leading defender who answered me, it was Didtans. Following the sound, I soon spotted Didtans standing in the courtyard outside. In fact, I should not have been able to see him in our relative position, but now there was a large hole in the wall that could run a carriage. As a result, Didtans was able to stand outside and speak directly to me.

"Hehe, I bet you weren't at the temple when you were ransacked."

Ditans shook his head. "You guessed wrong this time, not only I was in the temple, but a few of my friends were also here at the time, and it turned out to be ......!"

"As a result, it was snatched away?" I asked incredulously.

Titans nodded. "I know you don't believe it, but it's the truth. My temple is not an ordinary stone building, every inch of land here has been reinforced by years of magic, and the defensive power of this wall between us is definitely not much worse than that of ordinary city walls, but you can see the results! That's right. Someone who just heard from me report that you found the Precept Stone? ”

I didn't have to hide the need for Ditans, so I just took out the Discipline Stone in my hand. "Is it the one you lost?"

Ditans teleported to my side, reaching out and snatching the Ord of Discipline from my hand. This is it. How did you get it? ”

I casually took the Orb of Discipline back from Titans' hand. "Do you need to ask about this? If it weren't for the robbery of the Orb of Discipline this time, wouldn't you still have to hand it over to me? ”

"That's right! I forgot! The Ring of Discipline is with you, and it is useless to have the Stone of Discipline alone. Even if someone else snatches it, it will still be delivered to you! How could I not have thought of it! Detans looked very remorseful. I guess he regretted that he didn't send someone to me to intercept the stone people who came to deliver the precepts. But even if he sent it, it would be useless, because I went to the Temple of Light to get it this time. It wasn't sent by someone at all.

I smiled and comforted Ditans: "You are concerned and messy, I am a bystander, so I can see things clearly." ”

Didans asked me with some excitement, "But this precept stone was snatched from me, isn't it ......?" ”

I reached out to stop Ditans from continuing. "It's not that you don't understand the rules, don't embarrass me, okay?"

"But ......"

"Nothing but, what has happened is not existing, and what has not happened is not happening. Yes, I do know that you found the Stone of Discipline, but so what? If it wasn't you who handed me over to me in the end, could I still change the ownership of the Stone of Discipline at will? It's like someone has been robbed of their money. If the robbers used the money to set up a leisure center, can you run to the leisure center and tell the leisure center that the money is yours, and they want them to provide services to you, not to serve the person who spends the money? That's right, the money was indeed robbed by that person, but it was he who spent the money, and as the party of the transaction unit, he could only admit the party who made the payment, and as for the origin of the money, should the merchant also check it? Then these shops might as well all switch to private detectives. It's the same with me here, and when something is in my hands, it's finalized. I believe that things are yours, but I can't deprive others of their ownership, do you understand? ”

Ditans' fingers rattled angrily, but eventually he pressed them down. "And what if I can get the robber to come and talk to you?"

I shook my head. "It doesn't matter who is robbing. The important thing is to give this precept stone to my person, if you can get the other party to agree to transfer permissions, then I naturally have nothing to say. Don't say this thing was yours, even if it wasn't yours. As long as you can get the other person to nod and transfer, it will be no different from yours. ”

Ditans looked at me with a frown and said, "How do you say that I am the one who robs?" ”

I shook my head helplessly and patted Ditans on the shoulder. "O my Lord God! You've been the Lord God for so many years, why don't you even understand this? Forget it, I'll tell you clearly! In fact, it doesn't make sense for you to be justified or ignored in this matter, the key issue is your strength. As long as you can make the other person think that the cost of possessing it far outweighs the benefits it brings. Then there are no problems. ”

Ditans looked up at the sky through the roof where he could see the white clouds, "Then I only ask you for one thing." ”

"You want to know who robbed you?" Titans nodded. I thought for a moment before I spoke: "Logically speaking, I shouldn't sue you, but we are the middlemen who rely on this little thing to eat, so ......!" "I rubbed my fingers in front of Ditans at the right time and made a universal gesture.

Ditans gave me one look, then immediately reached out and summoned one of the guards to say something to him and sent him away. "I've already gone to get the things, tell me first, who is robbing me?"

I frowned and said, "Since you were here during the robbery, and you fought so ......!" I gestured to the complex. Hit so hard, you should always see something from the other party's number of roads, right? ”

"The opponent uses all spirit puppets, which can enhance their own strength when fighting. It can also change the way of attacking, and after dying in battle, the body will return to normal, which is equivalent to an extra life out of thin air, and the most hateful thing is that the puppet of death will melt, and there will be no clues. Aside from the permanent decrease in the strength of the main body after use, this spell is almost flawless! ”

"So you don't see who attacked you?"

Ditans nodded affirmatively. If I knew, what else would I ask you for? ”

"Then I'm relieved!"

"Huh? What did you say? ”

"Oh no! I mean, then I'm upset! "Whew, I'm excited to tell the truth!" That one. O Ditans! You know that, too. This one...... According to the rules, I will never tell you, but since you have given the benefit fee. Then I can only reluctantly embarrass it, but I won't tell you who it is. ”

Ditans was not stupid, and immediately nodded: "I understand your difficulties, you just need to follow what I say and tell me that I am right or wrong." Seeing me nodding, Ditans immediately said, "According to my guess, there are only three possible houses that have attacked me. One is the Temple of Light. The second is the Statue of Liberty, and the third is your Chinese Heavenly Court. ”

"How do you think it's these three?"

"The Temple of Light and I are old rivals, so it's normal for them to attack me. As for the Temple of Liberty, this is my reason, please forgive me for not suing you. ”

"What about the Heavenly Court? How do you think they have the potential to commit a crime? ”

"Am I right?" Instead of answering my question, Ditans excitedly asked me if I had guessed correctly. I shook my head, and Didtans immediately said, "Didn't Heavenly Court do it?" Could that be the Statue of Liberty? ”

I deliberately asked rhetorically, "Why don't you guess the Temple of Light that is the most probable?" ”

Ditans shook his head: "To be honest, I was indeed the first to think of the Temple of Light at first, but then I thought about it again and it seemed unlikely, and it was just habitual to think that they were possible, but I didn't quite believe it myself. ”

I smiled lazily and looked at Dietans. "Oh? It's strange that you have such an idea! ”

"Actually, it's a matter of course." Ditans explained, "Originally, the Temple of Light was indeed the most suspicious, but when I thought about it later, I felt that it was wrong. If only the former Temple of Light had been nothing. But the current Temple of Light is not as good as it used to be. Since the split of the Temple of Light, there is not much combat power to speak of, and the top priority for the current Temple of Light is to develop and consolidate, and I don't think they will do such a stupid thing as grabbing things with me. ”

Call! This guy Ditans is really smart but was mistaken by cleverness, he himself is a smart person and thinks that others are as shrewd as him, but he didn't expect that Filindil would be so stupid to do something that an idiot would do, of course, what he didn't expect was that I also participated in this hoodwinked plan. Clearing my throat slightly, I opened my mouth to interrupt Ditans. "There is some truth to your guess, but I can only tell you that none of these three are the correct answers."

"Neither?" Ditans frowned and thought for a long time before he asked tentatively in a whisper: "If these three families are not, then only the Odin God and the Christian gang are left, otherwise is it Allah's people?" ”

I continued to shake my head. "Think again."

"Isn't that right? But the only ones who can directly contact my sphere of influence are these Protoss! That is to say that someone launched a cross-border operation? But there is no place where the Protoss can operate in other Protoss territories without being discovered? ”

"Alas...... Aren't you usually smart? Why are you confused again for a while? Do you think where is the base camp of your Dark Temple? ”

"Of course it'......," said Didans, pausing suddenly. Are you saying that the other party is from the underworld? Without waiting for me to nod, Ditans immediately affirmed his own answer. That's right! How could I not have thought of it! The other party appeared so suddenly. There must be a special way to enter, it turns out that they came from the underworld, no wonder they were not discovered by the guards here. That's right! The few Protoss forces that were closer to me were very weak in their control over the underworld, so they didn't find any foreign Protoss who crossed the border. But the underworld is full of monsters and impassable seas of silence except for a few major settlements. Unless it's ......"

Seeing Detans' inquiring gaze at me, I nodded slightly and encouraged him to continue. Didanns was encouraged and immediately moved on to his analysis.

"Unless the other party has the Boat of Styx, that is to say, the other party is not a branch of the Protoss, but a high-level Protoss force with a superior main god, and among them there is a powerful mid-level Protoss who controls death. There are not many Protoss who meet this condition, and you have already made it clear that it is not Heavenly Court. Then the only place that is closer and meets all the above conditions is left...... Could it be the Egyptian gods? The Egyptian god clan is a huge god clan with a full system, among which there are still high-ranking main gods such as the water god Nu, among which Anubis, the god of earth mummies, replaces his father, the god of the underworld, Osiris, who is in charge of the underworld, and his strength is absolutely strong enough to snatch the precept stone from me. That's all right, and all the doubts can be matched. But how did the Egyptian gods know that I had the Precept Stone? ”

I shook my head: "Number one, you guessed it yourself, I didn't say anything." ”

Ditans knew that I was getting involved, so he nodded his head and said, "Yes, I guessed everything." You are very faithful to your promises and have not told me anything. ”

I continued, "Second, I don't know about the question you just mentioned, because the people who gave me the Precept Stone didn't tell me how they knew you had the Precept Stone, and you'll have to find out for yourself. ”

"Yes, since you said so...... Oh. Your stuff has arrived. Ditans reminded me by pointing behind me.

As soon as I turned around, I was taken aback. I saw that the internal guard who had just ordered Ditans to fetch things walked in with an iron chain, but it was not a magical beast tied behind the chain. It's a very weak and pitiful beauty.

"Please. Ditans, you want me to be killed by the Rose, don't you? I'm greedy for money, but I'm not lustful! ”

Instead of explaining my question, Ditans asked rhetorically, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't know how to pity the jade?" ”

I shook my head. "You know life very well, and it can be said that among the various gods I know, your taste is quite good."

"That's it. If I'm going to give you beautiful women, then they should wear translucent green veils and dance the snake dance into this room to increase their worth ......! ”

Hearing this, I directly reached out to stop Ditans from continuing. "Stop, I see what you mean. Since she can be tied up with iron cables, she is definitely not as simple as it seems. May I ask who she is? Or what are her abilities? ”

Instead of answering my question directly, Ditans again diverted the subject and asked me, "Do you know Athena?" ”

"You mean Athena, the goddess of war under the Odin Protoss?" When I finished speaking, I pointed at the beautiful woman in surprise and glared at Titans, waiting for his answer.

Didtans immediately laughed at the look on my face. "Hahaha! Where do you want to go? Athena is the god of war, do you think I beat her? ”

"Then you just asked me who Athena is?"

"I mean, she has a very important relationship with Athena."

"She knows Athena well? Then I can't even ask for it. Isn't this looking for a beating? Forget it, you'd better tell me just what her name is, right? ”

Ditans smiled wickedly, then mysteriously stuck his head over and whispered, "Her name is Victory." ”

"Victory?"

Ditans frowned, then said, "Turn off your translation." ”

"Oh!"

Didans opened his mouth again: "Her name is Victoria." ”

"Victoria?"

"According to the ancient Roman pronunciation, it should be Victoria. Later, it was directly borrowed by the English language family, and the meaning is translated as victory. But because her name is more likely to be confused with the adjective victory, the European language family later evolved her name to be pronounced Victoria. ”

"Wait, you mean she's Victoria, the goddess of victory?"

"Nike to be exact. Victoria, goddess of victory. ”

"You're going to give her to me as a pay?" I'm starting to believe in Ditans a little bit. Because with Ditans's picking, it's already a miracle not to bargain with you, so how can you take advantage of him? Supposedly, my help is not worth the value of the Goddess of Victory, and Didtans will never do this obviously losing deal, unless there is some hidden truth in it that he did not tell me.

Didtans may have seen my speculation and took it a step further. "Don't worry, I'm really going to use her as a reward. It seems to you that it is a very simple thing to reveal that information, but it means a lot to me, so I don't suffer to give such a generous reward. ”

I glanced at Ditans with a puzzled look. Then he said: "Then I might as well be respectful!" "Although I suspect that there are some traps here, but the goddess of victory has such a big cake there, and I can't help but touch it! The so-called people die for money, and birds die for food, even if I knew that there was a problem here, I decided to eat the bait first.

With the help of Ditans, I quickly got Victoria to confess and then didn't rush to check the properties. She couldn't run away anyway. It's more important to get down to business first. I told Ditans about the Japanese plan to besiege our guild land, and Ditans naturally extended two fingers after listening to it. "Give me two chances to use the Ring of Discipline. I'll help you get the problem out of Europe. ”

I thought for a moment, then said, "A chance." You have another condition. ”

Ditans thought for a long time and finally shook his head and said, "Two chances, I will send you another 1,000-strong special force to ensure that you are satisfied." ”

"Let me see what kind of team it is."

"Follow me."

Ditans led me to an underground barracks, and the heralds took a strange force from within.

"What is this? A gang of refugees on the run? "I was completely dumbfounded when I looked at the ragged crowd in front of me.

Detans was also stunned by the sight, but he quickly recovered and shouted at the men, "What are you doing? Hurry up and restore! ”

In the midst of Ditans' scolding, the old and sick man suddenly stood straight, although his clothes were still tattered, but his temperament was immediately fresh. Once the team was complete, the entire team began to slowly deform, as if it was a molten liquid reshape. Soon a thousand "refugees" became a thousand almost translucent ghost mages.

"This is the Ghost Army?"

"The correct way to put it should be the Phantom Mage Regiment." Ditans pointed to the ghost mage in front of me and introduced it to me. "As you can see, these ghost mages all have the ability to simulate illusions, and for some special reasons. Their simulations can be said to be flawless. ”

"No flaws? Any illusion is flawed, unless...... They weren't using Transfiguration Charms, were they? ”

"It's not technically a Transfiguration Charm, but it functions similarly. In fact, this unit was born out of an accident, and since then they have the ability to transform all kinds of creatures, and their transfiguration creatures can remain physical, meaning they can transform into warriors. ”

"But they're still mages after all, so what if they turn into warriors? Can they still fight the enemy like real warriors? ”

"Actually, we can." The ghost mage who took the lead stood up and spoke.

"Can you really fight like a warrior?"

"Yes, but when we become a creature or an individual, we can only use the abilities of that individual, and lose our original abilities. For example, if I choose to transform into a Thunder Eagle, then I can have all the abilities of the Thunder Eagle. But at the same time, I also lost my ability as a mage, but I can use my mage ability again when I transmogrify back into my mage form. ”

"So if you transform into a dragon, don't you have the power of a dragon?"

"This needs to be explained." The mage said seriously: "Although we can change into any creature, the rules of this world will not change, which means that we cannot gain power as we want. It's as if even if I were to transform into the image of Lord Ditans, I would not have been able to gain the power of Lord Ditans. Also, I can't change form arbitrarily, which requires a complete understanding of the target. I need to know all the characteristics of a creature to become them, otherwise it's useless. ”

"But at least you can turn into some of the more common creatures, right?"

"Of course."

Without waiting for the mage to continue, I preemptively said, "Then I will understand that your advantage is not in your local combat power. Rather, it is that no matter what environment you are in, you can turn yourself into a creature that is most suitable for that environment, that is, no matter who you fight with, you can become a creature that restrains the opponent's ability or is particularly adapted to the arena, which makes your adaptability and combat effectiveness play a greater effect than normal. For example, while the average ghost is afraid of light magic, you can turn yourself into any creature that is not afraid of light magic. Your combat effectiveness has not changed in the process, but it has actually increased your combat effectiveness due to the relationship between attribute restraints. ”

Actually, I can understand that this has something to do with the fact that I have more magic pets. The spear god and the ghost hand Nobunaga often complained that they were always restrained by me no matter where they fought me, and this was actually because my pets had strange attributes, and I could always find a pet that suited the environment to fight. It's like if it's on land, Ayana, who is a mermaid princess, can only be used as a nurse to replenish blood, but she can go into the water. Her combat power can even be close to my first-line battle pet, which is the credit of terrain bonuses and attribute restraint. If I can have a versatile army that can change shapes, it means that they can always overwhelm the enemy. However, satisfaction is satisfaction. The bargaining still has to go on the same way, and I don't mind taking more benefits.

"Ditans. I'm still fairly satisfied with your troops, though. But as you know, helping you get access to the Ring of Discipline isn't an easy task. I'm still suffering a lot in this way, so you can compensate for something! ”

Ditans may also feel that the Ring of Discipline is indeed not something that can be easily used, so in the end, there is no price reduction. "So be it! In addition to this Phantom Mage group, how about I help you make a shadow double for a hundred more people? ”

"What do you mean by a shadow stand-in?" Although I'm also a dark master, after all, I still don't know as much as the dark god. So I don't know what this shadow double is, but I can roughly guess what the ability is for based on its name.

Ditans explained to me, "A shadow stand-in is actually a shadow warrior using his own shadow. ”

"You mean to let my shadow come out and fight?"

"It's for your shadow to participate in the battle, but instead of attacking the opponent's body, it attacks the opponent's shadow."

"Attack the Shadow?"

"That is, you can let your shadow break away from your body and go out to fight alone when you fight, and then your shadow will attack the enemy's shadow, and when the enemy's shadow is attacked by your shadow, his body will be equally damaged. There are several benefits to this attack. First, it's useless for others to attack your shadow. In other words, you only need to worry about your own body, and your shadow will never die in front of you. Second, the actions of you and your shadow are separate. However, the enemy's shadow and body are synchronized, and when the opponent attacks at the same time in the face of you and your shadow, he must make his every move accurately dodge both attacks at the same time, otherwise it will be the same no matter which side hits. The third is that the shadow has no defense, so if there is an enemy that you can't break through, you can let your shadow use it against him. And the damage output will be very stable. ”

"It's useful to come to the earth in this way, but let's talk about it, how about you help me make two hundred shadow doubles?"

Ditans thought for a moment and nodded. "Two hundred shadow stand-ins for transformation, plus the help of this time and the phantom mage group that I just sent you, in exchange for two opportunities to use the ring of precepts, I have no problem here. What about you? "Deal."

"It's a pleasure to work with."

After the deal was made, I briefly explained to Dictans how to deal with the matter. In fact, there is not much to do for Ditans. The French and the British plan to jointly attack Ashford's Iron Cross and then force us to send reinforcements to achieve the purpose of mobilizing our guild forces, but because we know the content of the plan in advance, it is definitely impossible to transfer troops, and the only thing we have to worry about is whether Ashford's Iron Cross can stop the attack of the Anglo-French army, and the Dark Temple side is nothing more than insurance in my opinion. Even if Didans did not come to help with a large army, even if it was some hint, it would be enough for him to release the message that he would openly help us deal with the Anglo-French forces.

Once the plan was arranged, I said goodbye to Ditans and left the Dark Temple, and of course I had to take the mage MM with me. When I walked out of the temple, I found that they were already waiting for me. "Ah, I'm sorry. Have you waited a long time? ”

"No, I just came out." Mage MM handed me a scroll: "This ......!" ”

I opened it and looked at it, and it turned out to be a job change mission. Generally speaking, you only need to do tasks before you can get a dual class license, and if you get a mission again at the same time as you deliver the license, it means that you may be in dangerous game mode. The second class transfer quest is something that most players who get a second class license to love and hate, because getting it means that you can get two polarized outcomes. If you are more moldy. Failed to complete the task. As a result, you'll lose your second class transfer permit, which means you'll be back to being a regular single-class player. But if you're lucky. Then congratulations. Not only will you be able to get the second class change that others can only dream of, but you'll also be able to turn on the career evolution feature. For example, if you get an all-class license, and then choose a black mage class and want to change classes, if you receive a second job transfer task when you change jobs, then you will not only get the black mage class after completion, but also guide the black mage class to automatically evolve to the next level, and become a stronger black mage branch special class. Moreover, these special classes are usually those that players with only one class cannot change classes to anyway.

After reading the scroll, I handed it back to Mage MM and patted her on the shoulder. "Congratulations, there's a 1 in 10 chance you've hit it!"

Mage MM looked at me with a confused expression when he heard my answer. "This ...... Isn't it a good thing to get such a task? ”

The warrior M, who was with Mage MM, also asked curiously, "Didn't the scroll say that if you fail the mission, you will lose the opportunity to change jobs?" Why do you say it's a good thing? ”

I smiled and explained it to them. "If you're alone in receiving such a task, you're trying your luck, and it's neither good nor bad. But don't forget jì, you still have me by your side. Seeing that they still didn't understand, I had to continue to explain: "You guys should have found out about it long ago after you've been in the game for so long." The task of "Zero" is not in vain, and completing the task means reward, so getting the task on the premise of ensuring the completion of the task is equivalent to getting the reward. Now you have this important task that happens to be very important for you, which means that you have a chance to get a super reward, and if you do it alone, it can be a mixed bag, but I can help you do the task together. What do you think are the odds of failing to complete a mission of your level with my combat power? ”

Whoever doesn't understand this now is an idiot. Since I have become the number one in the world's combat power rankings, it means that my combat power has reached the peak state among players. And I wasn't there when Master MM took the task, so the difficulty of this task was calculated according to her own strength, but now it's up to me to help her complete it, which is equivalent to taking the exam papers of middle school students to college students to do, although there is no guarantee that the questions will be correct, but there will be no problem with the exam.

"Then please ask President Purple Sun for help!"

"No problem, let's go on a mission together." After saying that, I thought of something and looked at the remaining six people again, and then asked, "Aren't you the worst combat power among the seven of you?" ”

"Worst?" Mage MM said proudly, "Except for Sister Di, none of them are better than me. ”

After listening to this, I shook my head helplessly at the rest of the people. "Well, it looks like there's some more troublesome problem here!"

"What's wrong?" The female warrior who led the team looked at me suspiciously and asked.

I asked rhetorically, "Haven't you paid attention to your tasks before?" ”

"Notice what?"

"It's a difficult task!" I saw that they all looked at me dumbfounded, so I had to explain it to them. "Generally speaking, the difficulty of a task consists of two parts: basic difficulty and task multiplier. The basic difficulty is generally determined by the strength of the person taking on the task. The actual difficulty of the mission is determined by the number of participants and the basic difficulty. Let's take an analogy. If a player's combat power is 100, then the basic difficulty of this task after he receives the task is 100, and if he goes to two more people to help, then the task becomes three people to complete. So the difficulty of the task will be one hundred times three, which is three hundred. However, the companion invited by this player cannot be exactly the same as his own combat power, which will affect the actual difficulty. If the combat power of the two people you invite is one hundred and fifty, then the combat power of the three of you is actually four hundred, and the task is still three hundred difficulty. This makes the task much easier. But if the combat power of the two people you invite is only fifty, and the sum of the three people is only two hundred, but the task is still three hundred difficulty, which is equivalent to invisibly increasing the difficulty of the task. ”

Hearing this, the female warrior immediately asked, "You mean that this mission is best for you and me, who are stronger than the Fire Rabbit, to participate, and no one else to join, right?" ”

To be honest, the name of the game is really special enough, it's actually called the Fire Rabbit, but her companions call her the Fire Rabbit. I listened to the words of the female warrior and did not answer directly, but said: "It is up to you to discuss whether to participate or not, I will just give a suggestion." According to the calculation of resource maximization, it is best not to bring people whose combat power is lower than that of the Flame Rabbit. Otherwise, the overall difficulty will be increased in vain. If it's a general task, forget it, but this task is related to the future development of the Flame Rabbit, so you'd better be cautious. ”

"Then we won't participate." The druid in the team was the first to say, "This will affect the future development of the Fire Rabbit." ”

I listened to him and looked at the others, but to my disappointment, they were silent, and the meaning was obvious. They had no intention of quitting at all. The Flame Rabbit had no choice but to play a round and say that bringing a few more people could cooperate with each other. That doesn't necessarily reduce the odds of winning. I shook my head helplessly, and handed the druid a badge.

"What do you mean?" The druid asked, looking at me quizzically.

"You're qualified."

"Huh? Why did he qualify? "The others apparently didn't understand why the druids were qualified.

"Because only he is willing to give up for his friend." I was very direct. It's also hurtful, but I don't care, anyway, the chances of us meeting in the future are not great, and I'm not afraid that they will hate me. "A few of you are not suitable for the environment of our guild, I suggest that you should maintain the status quo and level up by yourself."

"You mean we're eliminated?" The female warrior asked.

I shook my head, then pointed at the druid. "He's qualified. You still need to investigate, the Flame Rabbit should be fine, as for the others, they are eliminated! In fact, I said on the way that my assessment is not necessarily based on your combat effectiveness, and I am in the place of inspection is your comprehensive quality. Combat effectiveness is an important aspect, but character and developability are also important. The reason why he is qualified is because he is willing to take the initiative to quit for others, so even if the strength is poor, he will not hold back, even if the level of a player like this is lower when he joins, we can come up after a few times, but it is your personality and way of handling things that have formed their own habits. It's hard to change it! ”

The few people who were eliminated by me said this obviously had some unbearable faces, but after all, they all knew each other in reality, so it was not good to tear their faces on the spot, but these guys looked at me and their expressions became very dissatisfied. In the end, they discussed it with the female warrior and left without even saying hello.

It was only after the men were gone that the female warrior walked back to me. "Aren't you too direct?"

"I'm not familiar with them, why should I be tactful?"

"But ......!"

"It's my personal habit not to waste even a penny of effort in unnecessary places, and besides, are you asking me? Looks like you haven't passed the guò assessment yet, right? ”

"But we're friends after all...... The female warrior looked a little depressed in the direction of her friend's departure.

I burst out laughing, and then took another badge out of my arms. "You're qualified, too. However, you still don't want to participate in the Flame Bunny's mission. Although you are a little more combat-powerful than her, if you count me, only the two of us will take advantage of it. You'd better go and appease your friends! Just remember to come back and report, with that badge, the guards won't stop you. "With that, I grabbed the Flame Rabbit and started walking towards the teleportation array outside the temple." Hurry up, hurry up, your mission is time-limited, and I'm very busy, we will soon start a war with the Japanese and the Anglo-French forces, and I don't have time to help you with this task if I can't finish it today. ”

The Flame Bunny clearly wanted to comfort his companion as well. However, considering that this task is really important, I had to let it run out.

I want to ask, "Where are we going?" "The Flame Rabbit was pulled by me and ran into the teleportation array, and it was only then that I remembered that the mission scroll didn't seem to say the location of the mission.

I activated the teleportation array and said, "Go to the Castle of Eternal Night." ”

"Castle of the Eternal Night? Where is it? ”

"France." France? How do you know I'm going to do my assignment over there? It looks like there's nothing written on the scroll? ”

"Did I say you don't usually do tasks?" I wonder if she doesn't even look at quest scrolls.

The Flame Rabbit explained embarrassedly: "Usually the tasks in our team are analyzed by Sister Di, so I never look at scrolls. ”

"Then it's no wonder! Now teach you once and remember it yourself. If you don't have a quest location on your scroll, there are only two possibilities, the first is that your quest is not limited to location, for example, there is a quest in the Novice Village where you can collect wood. In this way, the mission does not need a location. Because it's the same everywhere you go. Another possibility is that your mission content mentions information about the location of the mission, but it doesn't say so. For example, a friend of mine was tasked with destroying the evil wizard Custer. There is also no location for this quest, but Custer is an NPC. And the location is fixed, just ask to get specific information, no need to write on the scroll at all. Your task is to gain the approval of the necromancer, which is the first case. So you just have to find a random place with a necromancer, and then because you have such a mission, those necromancers who are supposed to fight you will become communicating with you, and I guess the necromancer will probably ask you to do something for him at that time, and then if you succeed, he will recognize you, and you will be considered clear. ”

"Oh. It turns out that there is so much knowledge to do the task! I thought looking at a scroll would be as easy as looking at a book in a library! ”

"Don't think of "Zero" as such a simple game, although there are also simple catalog-style tasks here, but they are all regular tasks, those special or very important tasks will definitely not prompt the mission location, and even some tasks don't even tell you the final goal, it's all up to you to find it yourself like a guess!"

"Then why did we go to the castle of the eternal night in France to find the necromancer? Isn't there a necromancer on the German side? ”

I continued as I headed towards the Castle of Eternal Night with the Flame Rabbit, "I'll teach you one more trick. You can't do tasks stupidly, you have to use your brain. Do you know where the Temple of Darkness and the Temple of Light are? ”

"Didn't we just go to two temples?" The Flame Rabbit asked in surprise.

I lectured her in a loud voice: "Why don't you think of a mission in France, since you know it?" ”

"But does the location of the temple have anything to do with the location of the mission?"

"Absolutely! The tasks you have to complete are provided by the dark necromancer, which means that you will be tested by a necromancer. The headquarters of the Dark Temple is in Germany, so the dark creatures in Germany will naturally be much stronger than the dark creatures in France, if you are looking for a necromancer to take the task in Germany. Then, because the German necromancers themselves are too high-level, the enemies who can make them need to ask for help will naturally be of higher level, and your mission will become more difficult to complete. On the contrary, if it is in France. Since the creatures of darkness have always been suppressed, the enemies that make it difficult for them may only be a few small churches under the rule of the Temple of Light, and even if the necromancer asks you to take down one of these churches, it will be a very easy task, don't you think? ”

"yes, I didn't think of that!" The Flame Rabbit had a look of sudden realization.

"It's not that you didn't think of it. It's that you don't think about it. Okay, now let's go buy something and maybe use it later. ”

"What are you buying?" The Flame Rabbit asked as he followed me out of the small teleportation array.

We are now in a small city called Constance, and beyond the city is the Forest of Eternal Night. The Castle of the Eternal Night I'm talking about is deep in the Eternal Night Forest. Actually, I didn't bring the Flame Rabbit here entirely for her mission, in fact, I had one more thing I wanted to do by the way.

"Boss, do you have mechanical cores for sale here?" As soon as I walked into the store, I asked out loud.

This small, small-looking shopfront looks ordinary, with a shabby, but sturdy, counter slung by an orc-like shopkeeper. There were six or seven people standing in the store except the owner, and when I shouted at this voice, everyone turned their eyes.

"Whew, what an exaggerated outfit." One player first noticed my gear.

"Shhhh He's Purple Sun, do you want to gear up and want to go crazy? Another player grabbed the impulsive guy.

I didn't look at them at all, but walked straight to the counter and repeated what I had just said. The boss was stunned for a long time before asking, "How do you know that I have mechanical cores for sale here?" ”

Instead of answering his question, I smiled and left the store with an inexplicable flaming rabbit on my face.

The Flame Rabbit followed me out of the city and asked me, "Why did you run out without buying anything after you asked?" ”

"Because I'm not trying to buy something at all, I'm sure of one thing."

"What's the matter?"

"This has nothing to do with you. You just have to pay attention to your own tasks. I'm here to help you get things done. But it's up to you to trigger the content of the task, and I'm not the one to take the task after all. ”

"Oh." The Flame Rabbit nodded suspiciously.

In fact, the scene just now was just me confirming a person's whereabouts. And the name of this place is Jiaha. That's right, it's the Great Magister Jiaha that the Clan has been tracking. Although Jiaha is a great magister. But the reason I tracked him down wasn't his magical prowess, but his ability to create zào. Anyone who knows the Frost Rose Alliance knows that the guild's puppet technology is definitely the best in the game, but few people know where our guild's puppet technology originated, except for myself and a few people in charge of it.

It can be said that at least two-thirds of the puppet techniques of the guild so far have come from the research results of Jiaha, although some of them were not directly created by him, but they were produced by his creation "Norein" and his disciples "Lund" and "Yurena. Vanka". And among them, Noreen herself is a super puppet. She has soft skin that is almost carbon-based life, but the inside is full of magical machines, and the most exaggerated thing is that she not only has super combat power, but also has intelligence high enough to participate in technological research. It can be said that Noreen is the pinnacle of the puppet. In addition, my Demon Pet Fire Elf King Everit and Thor Brigitte are all mechanical lifeforms. And both of them are also creatures of the land of Jiaha. Through Guò's analysis of the three of their combat strength, it is difficult to imagine what kind of benefits Jiaha can bring to us if he joins our guild.

However, I didn't look for Jiaha for the puppet's shell-making technique, but for the internal control of the core, or soul. According to the news I got from Heavenly Court, it should be that only a superior god can create a zào soul. The immortals of the heavenly court can also make creatures, but they are only the carriers of creating creatures, that is, the physical body, and then they have to fill this body with the soul that has been stored, which can be regarded as completing the process of creating creatures. In this process, the soul is inherently existent. The immortals are just used as materials, and they can't create zào souls themselves. But Jaha clearly broke that limit. Brigis, Everett, and Noreen all have souls, but their souls are completely controlled by the magic core, not the souls of ordinary creatures. In other words, Jiaha can actually create a zào life. In this regard alone, Jiaha is already on par with high-ranking gods like Nuwa and Pangu.

Recently, there has been news from the affiliated guild of our guild that specializes in intelligence collection that a large number of finished puppet cores have been found in France, and after Noreen's inspection, the method of making the core is very similar to that of Jiaha's handiwork. Although these cores that appear on the market are only low-level control cores, and they cannot be considered mechanical souls, at least they indicate that Jiaha may be in France.

Originally, according to the news that I knew before. I had speculated that Gahar might be dead, but now that the core suddenly appeared, it showed that he was still alive, and if I didn't investigate Noreen carefully, I would have to run away on my own, but our guild couldn't do without her, so I had to make this trip for Noha, and it would be a great thing for us if we did find Gaha. Just now, I didn't ask if there was a mechanical core for sale, just to determine if this was Jiaha's hiding place. The French side has been in turmoil recently, and the information collected by our guild can only indicate that Jiaha may be active in this area, but it cannot be accurately located, so I can only use this method to confirm it first.

Out of the city, the two of us quickly walked into the Forest of Eternal Night. The forest is just like its name. Forever in the dark. However, this darkness is not formed by dark clouds, but by the green leaves of plants. The trees of the Eternal Night Forest are all unusually tall, and the canopy is very wide, and the trees of different heights shade each other, and when they reach the ground, it is only dark like dusk.

"Isn't this place a little too eerie? Why does it look like it's going to be haunted? ”

"Please, we're here for the necromancer. Are you a little conscious? ”

"Oh. And that makes sense. The Flame Rabbit looked at the trees around him, and then shivered unconsciously. But I'm still scared! ”

In fact, human beings are creatures that are easily infected by the environment. A normal person's first reaction when they see a skeleton in a busy street market in broad daylight will be to think of who has dropped the teaching materials, but if you see the same thing in the forest at night, your thoughts will definitely not be so simple. Flame Rabbit has been in the game for so long, it is absolutely impossible to say that she has never seen an undead creature, but she is still scared, this is because the surrounding eerie environment affects her feelings, making her feel scared unconsciously.

"Wait." I suddenly stopped under a large tree and stopped the Flame Rabbit.

The Flame Rabbit jumped three feet high like a frightened rabbit, and even its voice took on a trill. "How...... What's wrong? ”

"Why are you so reactive? I just wanted to find someone to ask for directions. ”

"Looking for someone to ask for directions? Who are you asking? Is there anyone else here besides the two of us? "By the time the Flame Rabbit said this, her voice had become like that through an electric fan, and I could even see her trembling violently.

"Really, please don't be so cowardly, okay? If you switch to a dark profession in the future, undead creatures will definitely have to be in constant contact, and if you keep looking like this, you're still a fart? ”

"I know, but I'm scared!"

"Forget it, I'll get used to seeing you more anyway." I said as I ignored the Flame Rabbit and reached into the nearby tree. "How long are you going to hide there?" With my words, I pulled a white-clad fluttering ghost out of the trunk.

"Ah......h

"Damn, no! Young people now! Really! I turned my head back to stare at the ghost I was carrying. Say. Who sent you to follow me? Seeing the hesitation on the ghost's face, I immediately said again, "Don't expect to deceive me, you've been following us since we entered the forest, don't you really know?" Say it quickly, or I'll purify you. ”

"Don't, don't! I say I say! "In the white light on the palm of my hand, the ghost finally succumbed." That is true. I'm ......"

"Woo......!" Suddenly, a huge force came from behind me, and the powerful force instantly lifted me out, and of course, the ghost in my hand also took the opportunity to get rid of my control.

With great inertia I flew seven or eight meters away, but what the enemy expected did not happen. According to normal people's thinking, I should be lifted off, then hit a big tree and then fall to the ground and finally fell unconscious, but the actual situation is that after flying seven or eight meters, I suddenly adjusted my posture in the air, and landed accurately on the trunk of a big tree with my feet and one hand as a support point, and at the same time I kicked the trunk violently. With the click of the trunk breaking, I bounced back the way I came, and I was already in the air with the Eternal Sword in my hand.

The person who attacked me was very experienced, because the moment I bounced back, the other person had already retreated behind a big tree, but he obviously underestimated my strength. I landed very accurately in front of the big tree where he was hiding, and I only saw two cross-flashing sword rays after the other party, and then the middle of the big tree in front of me suddenly fell apart in the shape of a cross. My attacker tried to run when he realized that something was wrong, but his speed was still a little slower, and a long sword glowing red was already on his neck. After the two of us came to a complete still, a few seconds later, the top half of the tree slammed into our side with a thud.

"How are you?"
