Chapter 211: Skeleton Mage

Mayor Mills is right, he's really a mechanic's material.

The box he handed to Duang contained a very strange thing.

It seems to be a spring, and the shape is a little stranger than that of ordinary springs, black in color, about the length of the palm of the hand, and round......

And this thing, according to Mayor Mills, can be attached to the sole of a shoe.

A ...... that can make people have ten times the bounce power Spring!

It's a strange thing.

Since it was something given by the NPC, although Du Ang felt strange, he still accepted it, and at this time, he saw Mills's brows, and suddenly frowned.

"Actually, I know it's rude, you're a person sent by the Lord of Asuka City, but...... I still want to take the liberty of asking you to do something for me. Mills said in a deep voice.

"What's the matter?" Duang looked at him a little strangely.

According to his logic, he was sent by the hellish city lord of Asuka City to help, and it was natural to deal with the scarab beetle, so he could say anything about it, why was he so mysterious and secretive? Isn't it anyone's sight?

I know it's hard to say, but ...... Alas" Mills sighed and said, "That's right, I grew up here, and I know the habits of those scarab beetles, and the reason why they attack humans must be that someone provokes them...... Well, although they are gone for the time being, I know that this matter is not over yet, because the man who angered the scarab beetle, he is among us......"

Mills took a deep breath and continued: "I have examined the corpses of those who have been bitten to death by scarabs, and they all have only one wound on their bodies, and they are all poor, affected people...... Well, if the man who provoked the scarab's wrath had been bitten to death, there must have been not just one wound on his corpse, but hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands...... Yes, this person is in the midst of our group...... Last night, the scarab beetle attacked our town again, and although there were no casualties, it was ...... I can already tell that the man who angered the scarab beetle is in our group."

"Yes, I don't know who this man is or why he angers those damn scarabs, so...... Dear Mr. Magician, I would like to ask you to help me find this person, can you? ”

System: Do you accept the quest, the mayor's request.

Du Ang scratched his head, this is the first time he has seen anything like this, take it, there are so many people in this mayor's hall, plus those wounded, one by one, it is almost impossible to find out who is the culprit who provoked the scarab beetle and caused this disaster among so many people.

But what if you don't?

Think of that weird spring that Mayor Mills gave me just now...... Although I don't know what good things I can get after completing this task, it is certain that this task is so **, and the system will definitely not let itself be busy in vain.

But where do you start?

Duon was in a quandary.

Forget it, let's take it first.

System: You accepted the mission, the mayor's request.

Mission Description: Find the culprit responsible for the disaster and report your present to Mills, the mayor of Valtu.

Reward: You will be awarded the title of Champion of Bird City.

Tier 1 Warrior?

Seeing this title, Du Ang's eyes suddenly lit up.

Before that, he had a few city favorability, and that thing was used to gain the city's favor, and then get the title.

Only those who are above the level of friendliness have the right to receive the title.

And the title ...... According to the guide, this is very, very, very, very useful stuff.

Two words: affordable!

The title of warrior is divided into nine levels, only players who have made outstanding contributions to the city-state have the opportunity to obtain this title, according to the different levels, at the beginning of each month, the person who has the title of warrior will receive a certain amount of salary paid by the system, if Du Ang is a first-class warrior, his salary is about twenty gold coins......

Of course, like other titles with ranks, the title of Warrior can also be promoted, and when the player's contribution reaches a certain level, it will automatically touch the advanced mission, and once the task is completed, the title can be automatically upgraded.

Suddenly, Duang stood still, and he suddenly thought of one thing: that old beggar, that level 300 **NPC, Duang once heard him say that when the scarab army attacked the small town of Vartu, the old beggar, he once caught a few scarabs, and he also ate those scarab beetles for dinner...... Could it be that this angered the scarab beetle and caused this terrible catastrophe?

If that's the case, the old beggar...... Damn, Mills just said that the scarab beetle had attacked the town of Valtu again the night before, and if it was really the old beggar who caused the trouble, then he must still be here.

However, before getting the exact result, Duon couldn't tell Mills about his doubts, after all, he was just an NPC, everything was consequential, and it was useless to discuss it with him.

In vain, let's go out and find the old beggar yourself.

Whether you can find it now is two words.

What's that old guy's name?

Yes, Barosh...... Damn it.

It stands to reason that if the man who caused the catastrophe was really the old beggar Barosh, then he should have shown himself no matter how much he had reached this step in the mission. However, Duon searched the small town of Valtu several times, but did not see the figure of this old fellow, it was as if he had evaporated from the world, and there was no shadow at all.

Not here, not there, not everywhere!

Du Ang wondered: "Am I wrong?" ”

Suddenly, a sneaky figure appeared in the distance, this person with his hands in his sleeves, his steps in a hurry, as he walked, he looked back from time to time, as if he was afraid of being seen by others.

This person, Duang recognized, it was the NPC who left a very good impression on him, Dr. Cech, I don't know why, he actually walked out of the mayor's hall, and he still looked panicked, he couldn't see the calmness and elegance before at all, it was like two people, Duang was stunned, and he hurriedly followed quietly behind him.

Cech came to the front of a very ordinary house, looked left and right, then opened the door and walked in quickly.

Duang followed, hiding and watching.

The room was dark, with no candles, no lights, not even windows, but thanks to Duon's eyes, otherwise he couldn't even see his feet in this room.

Broken bottles, farm tools scattered on the ground, broken glassware, half-broken clay pots...... No matter what it is, if you step on it, it will make a sound and it will be discovered.

In the corner of the room lay a large box made of rattan, and I don't know what it was for, and Cech walked over to it, opened the lid, took a deep breath, and actually put his foot in the box, and climbed down......

He didn't close the lid of the box

Duon quietly followed, fearing that his foot would step on something that would make a noise and attract Cech's attention, so he walked slowly, lightly and carefully......

Underneath this box is a secret passage

Duang took a closer look, only to see that at the bottom of the box, there was a bottomless deep passage, one of which was dug out of many small pits, for people to climb up and down, Duang thought to himself, maybe the answer to the task of finding the real murderer is related to this secret passage, related to Cech, since he has chased here, of course he must follow to see.

He also climbed down.

This secret passage is deep, deep......

Duon crawled for nearly ten minutes before his feet were back on solid ground.

Looking ahead, there was a deep passage ahead, narrow enough to fit only one person through, and Duang saw that Cech was right in front of him, and he kept muttering something as he went.

Duang quietly followed.

Soon, a stone door appeared in front of him, and Cech walked up to it, raised his hand, and slapped it three times.

With a squeak, the stone door seemed to be pushed open, and the left and right sides separated.

Cech stepped inside, and then, with a thud, countless candles lit up.

Magic, it's magic

Duang was shocked, he didn't expect that Doctor Cech, this kind and polite NPC, would actually use a magician, actually, a hidden magician!

A cave appeared in front of Duang's eyes, and by the light of the candle, Duon was revealed, and it turned out to be a magic laboratory.

On a large, flat test bench, there were countless magic props, as well as many strangely shaped instruments and meters, and around this cave, Duon also saw many large and small glassware, which were loaded with all kinds of strange biological specimens, including a huge lizard with two heads and pale golden skin, a strange rabbit with sharp fangs and a tail as long as a man, a four-legged snake, a saber-toothed frog, and ......

When Duon saw one of the glasswares, his heart beat violently, and he almost cried out, for there was a person, a young girl, who had been soaked in a reddish solution, her face was pale and terrifying, and her features were completely distorted, and you can imagine how painful and helpless she was when she died......

At that moment, Cech took a potion bottle, poured a few drops on his hand, and rubbed it vigorously on his face.

Soon, the gentle, affectionate face vanished, and was replaced by a bloodless, almost transparent ...... Skull face...... (To be continued.) )
