Chapter 32: Harvest and New Plans
"Rest assured, Mr. Elf. As long as your intelligence and goods come from the 'Shadow Caves', we will buy them at a high price, unless they are really not worth much. ”
"Okay, then I'll just say, as soon as we entered, we met five tomb robbers, and then ......"
"What? Encounter monsters as soon as you enter? Didn't you say you had to explore a certain distance before you met a monster? And what else you meet as soon as you enter?
Ah, I'm sorry, Mr. Elf, this news is so important that I have to report it first, please forgive me. ”
"Hehe, it's okay, it's understandable."
"Ahh I'm going out for a bit, hey, boss, I just got a message...... I understand...... Well, I understand! ”
After the person in charge finished the report, he turned to me and asked, "Mr. Elf, can you prove what you said, and do you have any other important information?" ”
"There is a lot of important information, and if you have the talent to understand the meaning of the summoned beast, we can let the summoned beast prove it. After all, that thing doesn't lie. ”
In other words, the death knight was poked by a hoe and did not respond to the call, how can this be testified?
"Okay, we do have that kind of talent, but don't worry, please continue."
The current year is 9941 in the Peace calendar, and the year 165 in Ulysses according to the Elven calendar.
Our group successfully escaped from the 'Shadow Cave' and gained a lot.
So I'm now asking for a lot of money with the head of the Bounty Alliance. Where was the last time? That's right, tomb robbers!
"Okay, those five grave robbers are four small and one big. If you kill the small one first, he will be resurrected at the command of the Great Tomb Robber; If you kill the Great Tomb Thief first, the four smaller ones will die on their own.
Ah, right. When the monsters of the Shadow Cave die, they will turn to dust and dissipate. And this one, the hoe that fell after the death of the great tomb robber, and the four small ones that left nothing behind. ”
I took out a hoe from the space and handed it to the person in charge, "I also ask you to purchase this equipment at a high level." ”
High-end acquisitions, that's what I say bluntly. The elves must be upright, if you agree and don't buy at a high price, it will cause diplomatic problems.
"Ah, tomb robbers, our people have also met tomb robbers, and they are killed in the same way as you said, Mr. Mo. It's just that we never got their grave hoes, and they all turned to dust.
But we've got another type of grave hoe, which is bigger and looks a little different from what you get? ”
If you have encountered it, you don't want to say, you know the news, so you won't buy it at a high price, right? If the other organization doesn't know about it, why don't I sell it again?
"Is that what you're talking about?" I took the Tomb Robber's hoe out of the space and handed it to the person in charge.
"Listen to me, after we killed the great tomb robber, a black tomb robber suddenly appeared, claiming to be the tomb robber.
And then we killed him. This hoe was obtained from him. ”
"Mr. Elf, do you have any specific way to drop their equipment?"
The person in charge saw me take out two hoes and asked such a question.
Yes.
Stained with my blood, you can snatch it before killing. 100% drop rate. But will I tell you this? I told you, why don't you tie me up and bleed?
"It's random, right? Because the Tomb Robber was fighting us with such a thick and long iron pipe in his hand, "I stretched out my hand and gestured to the hand cannon.
"Iron pipes are capable of emitting energy waves, which is very powerful. Look at this holy relic of mine, oh, I bought it with your hands, and it shattered me in one fell swoop! It's too strong! "I took out the relic's light armor shirt for the middle-aged male person in charge to see, and the cracks on it were clearly visible.
"But when we killed him, the iron pipe in his hand turned to ashes, and the hoe and cane around his waist were left on the ground."
As I spoke, I pulled out another cane. "Please also ask you to recycle this equipment at a high price."
"Mr. Elf, you have really gained a lot! Our people went in, and a lot of them died, and they couldn't get a piece of equipment! You really don't have an efficient way to get their gear? ”
A tomb robber gets two pieces of equipment on him, and if it were me, I'd ask the same question.
"It's really random, because this hoe sends a shockwave to the ground, and we've seen him use it during the fight. I don't know if it's the ability of the 'Tomb Robber', or the effect of the hoe;
The staff was not used, but both remained. But the iron pipe that could send energy waves dissipated. ”
If you want to know whether it's true or not, you can verify it yourself.
"Okay, okay, this message is also important. Random, random drops. By the way, is there anything else? ”
"Yes And then for a long time we seemed to be walking in a labyrinth where there were some huge moths and ants, and when we killed them, nothing was left;
There are also white fat bugs, which are killed and leave nothing. But the white fat bug seems to feed on other bugs, even of its own. It's very cruel, but it's not very strong. ”
"Well, okay, we all know that. Don't look at me like that, we really know that, but we'll pay you the price accordingly. Anything else? ”
Don't you really know what you just wrote?
"In the end, we came across a big insect covered with scales and spikes, probably the legendary 'Insect King Killing Gu'! Kill it, and a black mist appears in front of us that is the same as the entrance. Into the fog, we are out. ”
"Thorns, big bugs, killing Gu! How did you kill him? How can it be? Isn't that a legendary creature? It's said to have legendary strength!? ”
It's not just a legendary strength! Fight head-on with the Killing Gu, and the legend will have to die a few. But our nurse is open, do you have any opinions?
"The priest put his shield on it, and then he killed, easily. Ah, our pastor is blessed by the gods, and he is very powerful. ”
"I see, I see." The person in charge nodded, "Three pieces of equipment and some information, we will give you items or gold coins of corresponding value." Is there anything else you'd like to add? ”
"Well, we've got some other materials, but we need them ourselves. Can give you some samples if you want. ”
Shortly after we got the 'Tomb Raider Notes - Dragon Hunt', Amy clamored for a treasure hunt.
But the level of that thing is far beyond the level of use of a few of us, and we can only play a part of its function, and we don't need to find any rare treasures. Of course, no dangerous enemies were found.
And then there were no enemies along the way, I mean humanoid monsters. All the insects encountered, the white ones were the most; But kill without any drops.
However, she also picked up a lot of materials, which Amy analyzed could help her build equipment to enter the Shadow Realm.
We guess that after the destruction of the spatial structure of the 'Shadow Cave', the Shadow Realm did not disappear, but merged with the Present Realm, the Shadow Realm, and other different dimensions.
Of course, it's just speculation. Later, see if you can use these materials to create equipment that can enter and exit the Shadow Realm at will.
I left the Bounty Alliance branch and returned to where we are now.
Coming out of the 'Shadow Cave', we secretly rented a yard in the town. Why do you like hospitalization so much? No way, the people from the Bounty Alliance helped us pick it, and that yard was surrounded by their people.
At the moment we are protected by them, and protection is to protect our lives from being violated. At the same time, we also protect that the information they receive is exclusive and will not be disclosed to others.
Our equipment and materials are also the first to find them, a win-win plan, there is no reason not to accept it.
What I asked for from the Bounty Alliance this time, including some equipment (then it depends on who lacks what);
some demon materials (sacrifices to help Chrissy break the contract);
We also need a Master Equipment Builder to help us craft equipment from materials from the Shadow Cave.
Before the master came, it was time for the spoils to be shared.
Grave Robber's Hoe X2 (for sale), one is the hoe of Captain Grave Robber (Red Hair) and the other is the hoe of 'Tomb Robber' (Black Hair).
But we really can't tell which professional department this hoe belongs to. It's not a sword type (I'm sure), it's not a fighting system like an oriental stick (Parker and I are sure),
It's not a clergy weapon like a scythe (Mina and the Tower are sure), it's not a mage weapon like a staff or a staff (Amy and Chrissy are sure, oh, Amy isn't so sure.) )
Anyway, we don't need these two hoes, we can sell them for other equipment or gold.
Tomb Robbery Notes - Dragon Hunt (Amy). Tomb Robbery Notes - Dragon Hunt is a wooden array plate with pointers on the upper surface and lettering on the lower surface, and its function is treasure hunting.
This is what was in the satchel on his belt after the death of the 'Tomb Robber'. This one is perfect for Amy. Every time we go to 'rob the house', Amy is the one who is responsible for 'raiding the house' and 'stealing the house', and it is the best arrangement for her, a scumbag with combat power, to find treasures.
Tomb Robber's Ring (Amy). This is the ring worn on the finger of the Tomb Robber. Because I cut off his palm during the battle, and the ring was kept.
The effect of the ring is that the more wealth it contains, the more valuable it is, the more attack power it can give to the wearer. Increases Attack by up to 10%!
Of course, this attribute is very good, but its level is too high, and we can't enjoy its bonus, so it doesn't matter who you give it.
On the other hand, the public property of our team was actually kept by Amy, so the ring was eventually given to Amy to wear.
We guys, if you want to talk about strength, Amy is the weakest chicken. If you want to save her life, Amy is the strongest.
Start saving money now, and in case I (anyone) can break through to the legendary in the future, I can use this ring.
Tomb Robber Staff (for sale). This cane is a weapon in the Ring of the Tomb Robber, and is classified as a good cane. However, the staff is generally the favorite weapon of the necromancer, and elemental mages and summoners use more staff and wands.
Since there is no one in the team to use it, it is natural to sell it.
Celestial Devourer (Parker). Ah, it's a high-grade gauntlet, and it's still epic.
Tears of indisputability left from the corners of his mouth again. However, these gloves are to strengthen the Street Fighter skill of 'Heaven and Earth Net', but I don't know this skill (I have also learned a lot of Street Fighter skills).
So 'let' gave it to Parker. Oh, and by the way, these gloves are also found in the 'Tomb Robber's Ring'.
Lynn's staff (Chriss), Lynn's robes (Chriss), Lynn's necklace (Chriss).
These three are all taken from the body of Lynne, the ghost mage of the sky, and my blood is still on the robes and necklaces.
We have elemental mages (summoners?) on our team. Chrissy, so it was all stuffed to her, no controversy. As for Mina, the big priest also wears cloth armor, then there is no way.
This robe strengthens elemental mages, especially those who use the dark element.
Hardy's mask (me). This is the mask on the face of the thin skeleton, which I took off before I finally died. The effect is that when you enter the 'bleeding state', you will regain your vitality.
Since I can't enjoy the healing from the big nurse, once I get hurt, I can only go and take alchemy potions. So it's rare to have a healing piece of equipment, so naturally it was given to me.
There are a number of scales, teeth, and spikes of the Killing Gu, a number of materials, and a corpse of the Killing Gu. Let's see what gear you can craft.
'Killing Gu Eyes', it is said to have this material, but we really haven't found where its eyes are? It is said that the white bugs are 'Gu Killing Larvae', they do have eyes, but we don't get anything from killing them.
Parker, the spike of the Gu Killing, left a part of it as a needle for the poisonous needle, what a clever ghost. So I took some of it.
Tower and Mina didn't get anything, because there really wasn't anything for them. When you build it, try to follow the needs of both of them first.
Among the corpses of the Killing Gu, we disemboweled it. I took out a number of 'Killing Gu Flesh' (a few cat food), a piece of Killing Gu Spine, and an eyeball (?) Gu's eyeballs were in his stomach???
I didn't expect it to have no head, and no eyes;
And a piece of skin? It's not in the stomach. But on the outside, it was able to peel off a layer of skin after peeling off the scales.
In addition, a piece of wood was found in its belly.
"Chrissy, let's do it." I threw the wood to Chrissy. Although everyone (except me, probably) knows 'identification'. However, it is still customary to find a mage to identify it when it is generally appraised.
"Huh? Yes! Chrissy was puzzled and surprised.
How big is it? What's all the fuss about? Even if it's the wood left behind by the blunt sword saint among the four great sword masters, you won't be surprised to be like this, because you don't learn swordsmanship?
"What good things did Lao Mo find again?" Parker heard the commotion on our side and walked over to ask Chrissy.
"Ah," Chrissy whispered, "the scabbard of Apophis! ”
“!” Parker didn't say anything, but two words 'surprise' were written on his face.
Scabbard? Sounds like you've heard of this equipment? What is the effect? What is written in the book? Can't remember.
"What effect?" I'm more concerned about the effect, the scabbard is the scabbard, the sword is the sword, the difference is big.
"Enhance the 'Draw the Sword' skill."
"Good stuff! After the 'scabbard of Apophis' it was renamed the 'Scabbard of the Seven Wounds'. ”
I took the wood and inserted the Seven Wounds Sword into it, and the wooden scabbard quickly changed shape to accommodate the Seven Wounds.
Adaptability, eh, that's a good thing. This quality is a legend, right? I bled myself and began to refine my equipment, mainly the scabbard and mask.
It's so convenient for them, and it's done with a single attachment of spiritual power.
"Mina, do you have anything you want? The Tower's harvest was given to him before we went in. What about you? You've done a great job, do you have anything you want? ”
We got him all the weapons and equipment for the tower, so although there was no suitable equipment for him this time, when the reward came down, it would not be a disadvantage to give him some gold coins.
But Mina, the first few times, she didn't share anything, and she didn't lack equipment. This time she has made a great achievement, and she can't say that she has no desires and no desires to fool honest people like this.
"That, Mo-kun," Mina said slowly, "I hope that I ...... if, if I can."
I can't go on halfway. Alas, they are all their own partners, so what's so embarrassing? Even if you ask Parker to make a promise, I won't frown.
I looked at the tower, nodded in acknowledgment, and gave him a 'you know what I mean'. You know a lot about Mina, right? Now that you know, let's talk about it.
"Mina wants us to be able to take part in a 'demon's journey.'" The tower continued Mina's words.
"Your Excellency, the 'Demon's Journey' is a matter of secrecy to the Holy Light Church, and the danger is no less than that of the 'Shadow Cave', please consider carefully whether you choose to participate."
"Then will you introduce me to me?"
"Okay, but please keep it a secret. As you know, 10,000 years ago, the Dark Holy War ......"
About 1000 B.C. (193 Aradhur calendar), Ozma, the supreme magician of the Perus Empire (then the Human Empire) (legend has it that he was the incarnation of the cursed god), was ordered by the Human Empire to suppress the rebellion.
During the crackdown, the Human Empire reversed course and captured both of them and slaughtered Ozma's entire family.
Ozma sold her soul for revenge and became the 'God of the Damned'. He spread the contagious disease of the "curse of blood" to the Peruvian Empire. The infected person will turn into a terrifying demon (also known as a pretender).
In order to fight the curse of blood, the clergy led by the Five Sages fought a fierce war against Ozma in the Black Land, a battle known in history as the "Dark Holy War".
The "Five Sages" who led the Dark Holy War to victory.
One of the Five Sages: Sage Michel. He was the first enlightened Sage, the progenitor of the clergy, and there are even legends that he was the incarnation of the God of Light (not verifiable, but the Church of the Light thinks so). )
