After a while, the waiter Walker came up with two glasses of juice, and Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin chatted while drinking the juice.

"This tavern seems a little quirky." Xiao Yu said, looking at the waiter Walker, that Walker was just a waiter, but a question mark-level NPC, which was a puzzling thing.

The waiter, Walker, walked back and forth serving wine, but he listened intently to the chatter of the many NPCs in the tavern, and the NPCs here talked about everything.

"The Lord of Darkness has built a fortress beneath the city of Light."

Hearing this shocking news, the waiter Walker's hand shook, and the wine glass on the plate almost fell, and he forced himself to calm down, still with some panicked look on his face.

Hearing this news, Xiao Yu was also shocked, he didn't expect that when the Angel Alliance and the Evil Alliance were fighting lively, a third-party force was quietly infiltrating, and actually built a fortress under the Holy Light City, what a terrible thing?

Xiao Yu looked at the waiter Walker, the waiter Walker's expression was slightly pale, Xiao Yu was thoughtful, could it be that the waiter Walker was not an ordinary waiter, he had other identities?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu's eyes lit up, maybe he could dig out some tasks from this waiter. It may be that there are too many tasks, and Xiao Yu has an extremely keen sense of smell for tasks, but Xiao Yu can't rush up to get the task now, because the identity of the waiter Walker is secret, and if his identity is revealed, it will cause unnecessary trouble. Xiao Yu made up his mind, before entering the planet Ufunos, he should come here to have a look.

After Xiao Yu was sure, he silently began to drink juice. As for other issues, the matter of the Lord of Darkness building a fortress under the Holy Light City will naturally be dealt with, and it doesn't matter to Xiao Yu, after all, Xiao Yu is just a player, and he can only go with the flow in the huge plot, and it is too difficult for Xiao Yu to change the situation on the mainland.

Practice leveling, doing tasks, improving your strength as much as possible, and then playing more black matches and making more money, Xiao Yu has no other extravagant hopes.

The Rose Hotel was still noisy, and the people were still chatting loudly, but there weren't many of those hidden things.

In the noisy and noisy environment, Xiao Yu was completely forgetful, his thoughts continued to expand, and he actually got an interesting conclusion. Xiao Yu first entered the dungeon, and after entering the dungeon, he met Pradiloc, and went to the dungeon under the leadership of Pradiloc, and then Pradiloc went to check the clues, and agreed to meet at the Rose Hotel, and the square outside the Rose Hotel was the portal. From this point of view, it is not a coincidence that Xiao Yu saw the portal of Ufunos, it is not a coincidence that he arrived at the Rose Hotel, it is not a coincidence that he met the waiter Walker, and it is not a coincidence that he heard the news just now. Obviously, these are all deliberately arranged by the mastermind!

If it was a confused player, he might not take it to heart at all when he saw this, and he would not connect these clues with the task like Xiao Yu, but Xiao Yu was different, he keenly smelled the smell of the task. Sometimes, the quest is not delivered to the door, but you have to find it yourself.

Now that you've met Walker the Waiter, how can you get the attention of Walker and get him to send the task to himself?

Xiao Yu continued to think about it, and the answer was already coming out! If Xiao Yu gathered 16,000 spars and prepared to enter the planet Ufunos, and revealed the news to the waiter Walker, what would be the reaction of the waiter Walker? Will he be asked to send the task to himself?

The trigger point for the quest is definitely here!

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu suddenly brightened up, and smiled at Walker, the waiter in the distance.

The waiter Walker was slightly stunned when he saw Xiao Yu's smile, Xiao Yu's smile was indifferent and calm, as if everything was already in his chest.

"I hope no one enters the planet of Ufunos before me." Xiao Yu thought.

The waiter turned away and walked to the back of the hotel.

"Why hasn't Pradiloc come yet?" Zhao Lanxin couldn't help but say, two hours have passed.

"Isn't this coming?" Xiao Yu glanced at the door of the hotel and said.

Pradilock, wearing a black cloak, walked to Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin's side, and the three of them chatted quietly, stood up, and turned around and walked out of the Rose Hotel.

Pradilok has found the target location, a mercury chamber in the Black Forest outside the dungeon.

When stepping out of the Rose Hotel, Xiao Yu seemed to feel a beam of eyes looking at this side, it was the waiter Walker, Xiao Yu smiled slightly, and there would be a meeting.

Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin followed Pradilock out of the dungeon, walked to the black forest in the west of the dungeon, and entered the depths of the black forest.

"We can't go any further, there are more than a dozen secret sentinels here." Pradiloch said.

This mercury chamber has hundreds of defensive forces, and if you act rashly, it is likely to expose the target, and even Pradiloque will not be able to deal with so many guards.

"I'll go check it out first." Xiao Yu said that with so many stealth skills, maybe he could find the owner of Pradilock, and it was better to act purposefully than to wander around without a goal. "What does your master look like?"

"This is a portrait of my master." Pradiloque hurriedly took out a painting, handed it to Xiao Yu and said.

Xiao Yu opened the picture scroll, and was dumbfounded at the moment, how the master of Pradilok said is heroic, he is a wise and powerful mage, Xiao Yu has always thought that the master of Pradilok is a tall, handsome, talented young mage or an old mage who is old and dignified, and has a kind face, who expected that the person on the picture scroll is just a short and obscene old man, with a wisp of treacherous smile at the corner of his mouth, which is too different from what Pradiloc described.

Xiao Yu was a little suspicious, it was right to rescue the old man, as the saying goes, there is a shih in the eyes of a lover, but he didn't expect that the respected old mage in Pradiloque's eyes was actually such a lewd old man.

The Giants are sincere and honest, the most gullible of gullibility, they don't lie, if it weren't for that, Xiao Yu would definitely think that Pradilock had other plans.

"For the sake of the equipment." Xiao Yu muttered.

Looking at Xiao Yu's reluctance, Zhao Lanxin covered her mouth and chuckled: "This old man really doesn't look like a good person. ”

"The master is a great mage and alchemist...," Pradiloque still gushed.

Xiao Yu and Zhao Lanxin looked at each other and smiled bitterly, can't people be good-looking, this obscene old man is really a highly respected and strong ** teacher? If he is very powerful, and he has Pradilock by his side, how can he be captured by a group of dark elves?

No matter what the old man's character is, if you rescue the old man, you can get to the heart of the earth, Xiao Yu will not pursue so much, return the portrait to Pradilock, after taking a look, Xiao Yu will remember the appearance and characteristics of this old man in his mind, if he takes the portrait of this old man with him, he will not walk steadily.

"You don't need a portrait?" Pradiloc took the portrait and asked.

"I've memorized what your master looked like." Xiao Yu said, entered a stealth state, and touched the side of the mercury room.

Pradilok and Zhao Lanxin were hidden among the woods, due to the distance from the mercury room, and the fact that Pradilok was a level 30 super-level elite, their safety was still guaranteed.

Carefully touched in the jungle, walking by a tree, Xiao Yu's gaze swept over the nearby jungle, and more than a dozen secret sentinels were arranged between the trees, if you rushed in, you would definitely be discovered.

"There's one in the tree on the left and one in the bushes in front." Xiao Yu took a deep breath, sneaked around these secret sentinels, walked by a dead tree, just took a step forward, and took it back vividly, he saw a foot exposed on the ground, he almost stepped on it just now, it turned out that there was a person hidden behind the tree.

Hidden Steps!

Xiao Yu and the dark elf by the tree were no more than a yard apart, and they passed by the dark elite. The dark elf didn't notice Xiao Yu.

All dark elves are born hiders, they are extremely stealthy, they are natural thieves, and their detection ability is limited.

After Xiao Yu passed through this warning area, he entered the trap area, carefully avoiding the traps on the ground, if the trap was triggered and the sound was triggered, it was likely to attract a large number of dark elves.

Xiao Yu silently eliminated some traps and walked cautiously, the mercury room was close at hand.

There are two dark elf guards at the main entrance of the mercury room, and there are also many figures shaking in the corridor inside, it seems that the guards are very strong, Xiao Yu had to be extremely careful, first found a place to hide, and waited for the hidden step skill to cool down.

Xiao Yu found a rule, in the face of ordinary elites, stealth is enough, strengthening elite-level dark elves, disappearing and hiding are almost the same, as for super-level elites, this must use hidden steps and seclusion to be able to avoid the search of super-level elites.

After the Hidden Void Step cooled down, Xiao Yu sneaked into the door of the mercury room and threw a reconnaissance on the two guards, who were ordinary elites.

Xiao Yu kept the appearance of ordinary elites in his mind, and if he encountered a strengthened elite or a super-level elite, he would be able to immediately distinguish the difference between the three, otherwise if he encountered a super-level elite, it would be very dangerous to rashly probe the super-level elite, just like when he investigated Queen Medusa before, he would probably be discovered. Being discovered by Queen Medusa can still escape with his life, if he is discovered by a super-level elite here, with the power of this mercury room, Xiao Yu doesn't want to run away at all.

Passing by the two dark elf guards, Xiao Yu entered the mercury room, walked through the aisle in it, and checked the situation nearby, this mercury room occupies a fairly wide area, there is one corridor longitudinally, two horizontally, and there are rows of rooms on the edge of the corridor, some doors are opened, and some are tightly closed.

There was a group of guards patrolling the corridor, twenty-three guards lined up in a neat pace, these guards were basically the same as the two guards at the door, except for the dark elf guard in front of him, who wore a silver-white medal on his left chest.

Seeing these dark elf guards approaching him, Xiao Yu opened his retreat to avoid being discovered, and threw a reconnaissance on the guard wearing the silver-white medal.

Dark Elf Boss: Level 30 Enhanced Elite.

Similar to what Xiao Yu thought, he could distinguish the rank of these elites through the medals on the chest of the dark elves.

Passing by these dark elves, Xiao Yu continued to grope ahead, walked past the door of a room, and looked inside, which was a bit like a laboratory, and a human NPC was busy next to some bottles and cans.

Xiao Yu threw a reconnaissance on this human NPC.

Human Slave Rhea: Level 5, Master Alchemist.

It's not the old man Xiao Yu is looking for, there are about more than two hundred rooms here, I don't know when I want to find it, Xiao Yu has no choice but to search carefully.

The two hundred or so rooms were held by slaves, from all races, to the Dark Elves, to the Cryptmen, and so on. These imprisoned slaves were all master alchemists, refining something, and those bottles and jars contained some silvery-white liquid, which should be mercury.

Mercury-crafted things have strong toxic and demon-breaking properties, and are extremely expensive.

After searching for a long time, he searched all the rooms one by one, but Xiao Yu never found the owner of Pradilock, and for about twenty minutes, he searched more than sixty rooms, but he still didn't find the old man's whereabouts.

"How's it going over there?" Zhao Lanxin asked in a secret voice, Xiao Yu came in for so long and didn't hear back, no wonder she was worried.

"I haven't found it yet." Xiao Yu replied.

Hearing Xiao Yu's reply, Zhao Lanxin was also much relieved, at least she didn't encounter danger.

Another group of dark elf guards walked towards Xiao Yu, and the one at the front was wearing a golden medallion. Those who do not wear medals are ordinary elites, and those who wear white medals are strengthened elites, and it is easy to deduce that those who wear gold medals should be super-level elites, and super-level elites have much higher sensitivity than strengthened elites.

Xiao Yu gradually approached the super-level elite, wanting to test the perception range of the super-level elite, and just as he got closer, the super-level elite glanced around keenly, and his pointed ears twitched, as if listening to something.

Xiao Yu hurriedly opened the retreat, the perception of this dark elf super-level elite was even stronger than imagined, if it was discovered, Xiao Yu would die.

After Xiao Yu opened the retreat, the dark elf walked towards Xiao Yu and walked to Xiao Yu's side.

Xiao Yu's heart almost jumped out of his chest, as long as the dark elf took a few more steps, he would touch Xiao Yu.

The dark elf looked around, but didn't find Xiao Yu, and left in line with the dark elf guards behind him.

Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief and glanced back, the team of dark elf guards had already walked away, and Xiao Yu continued to search these rooms one by one.

Walking to the door of a slightly larger room, he glanced into the room and saw two Dark Elf guards standing inside the door, and a short old man in scruffy clothes was busy with something at the table in the room.

Xiao Yu's heart jumped, it should be him! Throw a scout at the old man.

Human Slave Thord: Level 5, Alchemy Master.

The short old man named Suod shook the crystal bottle in his hand, and when he turned his face sideways, Xiao Yu saw this guy's appearance clearly, and his obscene appearance was consistent with the portrait. I didn't expect this guy to have some ability, he is actually an alchemy master, but Pradilock's words are also untrue, where is this guy a powerful mage!

How do I get rid of this guy?

Xiao Yu glanced at the two dark elf guards, he was sure that he could kill these two dark elf guards in twenty seconds and make them unable to make a sound, but after killing them, Xiao Yu could not take the old man out. It's not realistic to let Pradivok come in to rescue the old man, the defense force here is so strong, it's not that Pradiloque can get in.

The mission seems to be stuck in a dead knot here!

The only ones who can get here through the defensive power of the mercury room are the thieves, and maybe there is some special way to take the old man away.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu quieted down and observed the situation first.

After a few moments, another group of Dark Elf guards passed by the door.

Waiting until the third batch of dark elf guards walked by, Xiao Yu calculated that the interval between the patrols of the two teams of guards was three minutes, so that Xiao Yu had plenty of time to kill that team of guards.

Seeing a group of dark elf guards walking away, Xiao Yu suddenly burst out, and a dragon soaring technique kicked towards one of the dark elf guards in the room.

The Dark Elf guard snorted and curled up like a blow, a dagger stabbed down on his forehead.

Xiao Yu stunned one of the dark elf guards with a chisel blow, and before the other dark elf could react, something happened, Xiao Yu made another lunge and rushed over.

Xiao Yu struck another Dark Elf guard with a thrust, paralyzing him.

The two dark elf guards didn't even have time to shout before they were controlled by Xiao Yu, who used his skills to control the two dark elf guards in turn, while outputting damage.

One shot with one skill in a row, and twenty seconds later, Xiao Yu killed all two dark elf guards.

Picking up the things dropped by the dark elf guards on the ground, Xiao Yu looked up and found that the obscene old man was looking at Xiao Yu with a frightened face, and the hand holding the crystal bottle trembled, and as soon as he let go, the crystal bottle fell down.

Xiao Yu pounced forward, scooped the crystal bottle in his hand, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, fortunately he didn't fall, this old man was too unbearable, and he was even more sure of his thoughts, Pradiloch must have been deceived by this guy, so he regarded him as a respected ** teacher. But Xiao Yu doesn't care about this, he just needs to complete this task and get the reward.

"I was called by Pradilock, is there any way you can get out?" Xiao Yu glanced at the old man with cold eyes and asked.

The old man, who was so frightened that he couldn't stop trembling, heard Xiao Yu's words and calmed down a little: "Ying... Hero, it was Pradioc who asked you to come, where is he? ”

"He's still outside." Xiao Yu said.

"Hero, please take me out, if you are willing to take me out, I am willing to pay." The old man looked at Xiao Yu pleadingly and said.

"Remuneration?" Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed, and it was a good thing to get rewards at both ends. "How much are you willing to pay?"

"How about a Legendary-level alchemy recipe and two bottles of Legendary-level alchemy potion?" The old man looked at Xiao Yu and asked.

"What is the use of my alchemy recipe and alchemy potion?" Xiao Yu pursed his lips and said.

"That's a priceless recipe and a potion!" The old man's beard trembled, and he gritted his teeth, "Plus a musket, a legendary-level alchemy work." ”

"Muskets?" Xiao Yu pondered for a long time, I don't know what the attributes of this musket are, thieves usually have at least a bow or musket to use to attract monsters, if there is a legendary-level musket, it is good. It's a big deal to forget about the bow and crossbow mastery skills and learn the musket mastery. "How's the property?"

Heroic Musket: Grade, Legendary. Attack 230-260, maximum range 120 yards, effective range 80 yards, 20% chance to cause armor piercing damage, fire frequency 20, incidental skills: burst fire, fire 5 bullets in a row, skill cooldown 3 minutes. Bullets are standard grade A.

This brave musket attack is not bad, it can shoot twenty bullets in one minute, not bad, bullets can also be bought in stores, with five combos, Xiao Yu values the range the most, the maximum range of ordinary bows and crossbows is 90 yards, and the effective range is 60 yards, compared with this musket, it is much worse. The higher the range, the better the attraction.

"Deal, what is the way you can get out?" Xiao Yu asked, in a few moments, the dark elf guards were about to come, and he had to end the bargaining and consider how to escape.

The old man smiled mysteriously, took out two bottles of potion from the counter, walked to the front of the corpses of the two dark elf guards, and poured the potion on the bodies of the two dark elf guards.

The two Dark Elf guards slowly stood up with blank expressions on their faces.

"This is a great alchemical work, a puppet potion!" The old man smirked.

A group of dark elf guards walked past the door and glanced into the room, nothing had changed in the room, two dark elf guards were still standing in place, and the old man was busy with something at the table.

The group of dark elf guards passed by the door of the room, saw that everything was normal, and left in a column.

Xiao Yu gradually changed back to his original form, the old man drew a circular alchemy circle on the ground, and then poured something in the center, urging the alchemy array, the alchemy circle quickly operated, and after a while, the alchemy circle disappeared, and a puppet that looked exactly like the old man appeared in front of Xiao Yu's eyes.

"This guy is really a bit of a doorman." Looking at the humanoid puppet, Xiao Yuxin said.

After arranging everything, the old man took out a bottle of alchemy potion, poured it, and his body shrank sharply, becoming only the size of his thumb, and said, "Take me out, the time is five minutes." ”

If you take a big living person out, it's really a bit troublesome, but now the old man has become the size of a thumb, in this way, Xiao Yu is very simple to carry, put it in his pocket, it will not affect Xiao Yu's stealth skills, five minutes is enough for Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu entered a stealth state and dived towards the mercury room.

(To be continued)
