Chapter 57: Roppongi ...... No, six books
"I didn't expect that even the noble elves had fallen into the arms of the god of hunting...... It seems that those goblins have also reached the time to rise......" The duke sighed sincerely after hearing what had happened.
After all, almost most of the goblin gods don't like goblins, these mentally retarded and dirty little guys, so even though there are a lot of goblins, no one generally regards them as the main force in the surface world, after all, the individual strength is too poor.
"Yes, it's a pity that this is true, but I think this should be just a very isolated phenomenon, after all, there are powerful inheritances and gods on the elf side, and there is no need to pay such a big price to convert to the weak divine power of Marat." Zheng Xuan patiently comforted.
But he was thinking viciously in his heart, Nima has completed the second ring, when will those task rewards be sent to us?!
"It would have been nice if that were the case, but it's a bit difficult to deal with right now. The most reliable Mesukian reinforcements were surprisingly wiped out by Marat's followers, and it would be some time before reinforcements from the other principalities arrived......," said the duke, rubbing his brow and trying to relieve the pressure, but it was of no avail.
Because immediately after that, the order was about to be ready to put more pressure on him.
"But Lord Duke, the next third ring task is really too difficult, after all, it is a level forty professional plus two goblin chiefs and goblin high priests who don't know the specific level, but they are definitely not weak, and the enemies of this level are really not enough to deal with them now, and even the qualifications to fight with them are not enough......"
Zhengxuan began to complain again, if you don't hurry up and send us a reward, you can watch and deal with the next things yourself, anyway, we can't help you for the time being.
And the reason is extremely sufficient, after all, no matter how much we want to help you subjectively, we can only help you get here, after all, we are really powerless......
"You can rest assured that you haven't completed all the task content yet, but I can advance a part of the reward content to you first, which must be of great help to you." Hearing this, the Duke hurriedly said, completely forgetting that he had said that there was no way to give rewards without all the tasks.
But that's right, we know that the rules of the system won't be so cheating, it's just you old fox who cheats.
Still want to play word games with us? Think we don't understand these twists and turns? I don't know if we were once an elite priest who wandered in the upper aristocratic society?
Hum! This time stealing chickens is not a counter-erosion of rice, so go around and wrap yourself in!
Ahh Deserve! If I don't kill you this time, we, the necromantic master, have been in vain for so many years!
"But if it's just a basic spell book, it may not have much chance of winning, after all, the suppression of the opposite level is not something that a few spells can counteract no matter how you look at it......" Zhengxu shook his head and said helplessly.
Hearing this, the Duke's frowning brow became more compact, and even exaggerated that he was able to trap mosquitoes.
After thinking for a while, he gritted his teeth with a tangled face and said, "Okay! In that case, Duke Ben will once again contribute to the peace of the surface world......"
Hearing this, Zhengxu's heart was shocked, knowing that this was the duke who was preparing to hemorrhage.
And the duke didn't disappoint him, and directly broke out the year-end discount: "Since the spell book is not enough to fight those cruel heretics, then I can only take out that thing......"
"Lord Duke!" Mai Ji Lijie, who had been standing beside the duke, suddenly changed her face, obviously hearing something terrible and hurriedly preparing to stop it, but it was obviously useless.
"You don't need to say more, I've made up my mind!" The Duke said categorically.
But in the eyes of the main order, it is more like acting, so ......
You two continue to act, and show us how you are going to perform this double reed.
"Lord Duke, that is a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Kewen family, how can it be handed over to outsiders?!" Li Jie screamed in categorical disagreement, obviously as a loyal servant of the Kewen family, it was absolutely not permissible to take out that treasure.
As the old saying goes, the lord worries about the ministers, and the lord humiliates the ministers to death, this is placed in ancient times, and Lijie should have directly cut her stomach at this time.
Oh, no, it seems that women can't cut their stomachs, so let's just go straight to a foot of white silk.
"No matter how important the treasure is, it is not as important as the lives of the people!" The duke said in a saintly tone with a compassionate face.
"If this artifact can save the people here from being slaughtered by the god of hunting, then I think it's totally worth the adventure!"
"But......" Speaking of this, Li Jie glanced at the order, then gritted her teeth and seemed to have an open expression, "That treasure should be used by the people of the Kewen family no matter what, not handed over to an unknown exotic adventurer!" ”
So you're trying to say, what if this treasure is swallowed by us, right?
Zhengxu said that he was very hurt, and his character and conscience were actually despised by an NPC, and this Nima cliff couldn't bear it!
So the order decided that no matter what this treasure was, he was going not to return it to the duke after completing the task, just saying that it was lost on the battlefield, and it was impossible for the duke not to give him a task reward.
However, the plot dialogue between the two dukes was not over, and the duke continued: "Then do you think that if those ugly and cruel little things enter this beautiful city, will this treasure still be in our hands?" ”
Without waiting for Li Jie to answer, the Duke continued: "Don't say anything stupid about retreating, if there are not enough hunters in this city, then it is impossible for them to infiltrate my personal guard, and even lure my personal guard captain to fall!" ”
Therefore, once the goblins begin to attack this free city, then the Marat believers in the city will definitely respond in various ways in the city, and when the time comes, there will be no way to break through with a single thirteen-pole dancing queen and red dragon warlock.
Li Jie naturally understood this, but it seemed that she was too excited, so she immediately blurted out: "But we can ask the temple for help!" ”
However, as soon as the words came out, she realized that she had said the wrong thing, because ......
"Isn't the lesson of ten years ago enough?! How could those hypocritical Temple Priests help us when life and death are at stake?! We are not believers in their gods, and we will only be squeezed out of the last bit of use, and then snatched away with our souls and treasures! ”
"Ahem......" The duke's face was unusually blood-red, and he couldn't help coughing twice, but the anger and sadness in his eyes couldn't be concealed.
"Your Excellency......" Lijie said worriedly.
"It's fine, but don't persuade us about this matter, I think this brave adventurer who pulled out and killed the traitor Krasty for us will not disappoint us, are you right, Mr. Order?" This time, the preface clearly felt the preciousness in the duke's tone.
It seems that that treasure is indeed very important to the Kewen family, but I don't know what it is?
With this doubt, Zhengxu patted his chest without hesitation and promised: "Don't worry, dear Lord Duke, as long as it is powerful enough, then I will do my best to destroy the goblins and the Fallen, and bring victory and peace to you and your people!" ”
"Presumptuous! This is an artifact that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Kewen family, and of course it is powerful enough equipment! Lijie couldn't help but scold angrily.
That maybe, otherwise why didn't you take it out before and would not be willing to take it out until the moment of life and death? It's not a fatal flaw, or there's a limit on the number of times it can be used, so let's naturally have to see what the flaw is.
But naturally you can't say that, so Zhengxuan just smiled and didn't refute it.
On the contrary, the duke was quite generous and didn't say much, but led the order to the huge library of the villa without saying a word.
"This is the most precious inheritance of our Curwen family......" the Duke said proudly to Zhengxu.
Knowledge is always the most precious inheritance in the civilized world, and there is no doubt about this in any corner of the multiverse.
Even the demons of complete chaos have countless valuable knowledge that has been passed down from generation to generation.
It's just that, unlike humans, they are passed down more through genetics than through physical writing.
"And then you can pick up six books you need here, whatever type of book you want, but only six."
