Chapter 364: A good helper to solve problems

When Tang Juyi and the others had just arrived on the deck before, the ship was already about to reach Deathcursed Island, so Tang Juyi and Amir didn't wait long before they heard the captain's command to ask the crew to drop the anchor, and at the same time heard the shaking sound of the big ship colliding with something.

Deathdamned Island was already in sight, and the Ocean Tide City, which was located in the center of Deathdamned Island, also came into everyone's field of vision, followed by a sudden drop in temperature and a much more humid air.

Tang Juyi felt the change in temperature, and before he could make a reminder, he heard the voice of the captain behind him:

"The climate in Ocean Tide City is much harsher than outside, especially after the previous shipwreck...... There are already many places in the city that have been flooded, so don't wander around. ”

Tang Juyi turned around and saw the bearded captain standing on the bow of the boat and reminding everyone.

"Do you know what he said about shipwreck?"

Amir asked Tang Juyi in a low voice, wanting to know the specific circumstances of the shipwreck.

Tang Juyi shook his head and was very honest:

"I've heard of it, but I don't know the specifics, I only know that it was a disaster more than half a year ago...... I've gotten clues about the shipwreck and hinting at the importance of it. After a while, I went to the island and felt the need to investigate. ”

There was a faint surprise in Emir's eyes, but he didn't say the doubt in his heart, but only echoed it:

"If you have a clue, it will be a lot easier...... At least there is a direction of action. ”

Tang Juyi nodded, not looking concerned, but in fact, he had secretly paid attention to this sentence:

Why did she say that? Could it be that there are no other plot threads in her room other than information about her own character? ”

As the ship came to a stop, Tang Juyi and Emile did not rush to disembark, but waited for most of the passengers to go ashore before going down to the dock.

Before leaving, Tang Juyi also tried to continue to communicate with the captain, until he was sure that he had completely completed his glorious mission as a "novice guide NPC" and could no longer get other useful information.

Regarding Tang Juyi's special identity of "hallucination", although the captain expressed a certain amount of sympathy, he was obviously unwilling to continue to intersect with him, and simply explained some matters in Haichao City, and then made a strong attitude to send off the guest.

Stepping on the land of Death Curse Island, Tang Juyi's heart seemed to be touched by something, but the waves were very weak, and even he himself was not sure if there was anything wrong, so although he hesitated, he continued to walk towards Death Curse Island.

"What are you going to do? Their desire to get ahead of the curve seems to be quite strong. ”

Emile looked at the crowd that had scattered into Deathcurse Island and asked Tang Juyi's opinion.

Tang Juyi observed the landform of the surrounding coastline and said casually:

"Don't you already have an idea? Why do you even ask me? ”

was so easily seen through by Tang Juyi, although Emil was helpless, he was always a little unhappy:

"I'm asking for your opinion because we're allies, not master-slaves."

Tang Juyi had already constructed a rough outline of the Death Curse Island in his heart, so he also withdrew his gaze:

"My opinion is that there is no need to rush to deal with the locals first, because the captain has said that they are not very friendly to outsiders...... What we need to do is to first figure out the layout of this Haichao City and grasp the key locations and locations, so that we can be in an advantageous position in terms of information. ”

Aimile and Tang Juyi have the same idea, and they also agree when they hear this:

"Not only that, but I think we need to figure out the transaction patterns of this place and understand the needs of the residents of Haichao City, so that we don't have to do anything when the investigation is blocked."

Tang Juyi's heart moved, because he didn't take this into account:

"You're saying that the inhabitants of this Ocean Tide City probably don't use ordinary currency to trade?"

Amir laughed, as if he was proud that he was one step ahead of Tang Juyi in thinking:

"You think, this Haichao City is not a large city, just a small city on an island, and the captain mentioned before that our sailing time is a month, so the connection between Haichao City and the outside world is relatively weak, and it is almost a slightly closed social environment."

Tang Juyi quickly followed Amir's train of thought:

"Then there was a shipwreck half a year ago, and until now some areas have been flooded by the sea, indicating that the city system may not be stable, and the fanatics with so-called strange beliefs have made the situation in Haichao City extremely chaotic...... In this way, the local population is likely to move away from the original currency exchange and return to the original barter? ”

Amir added:

"There may also be some representative precious materials circulating as a substitute for money, but it is uncertain at this time."

After a little thought, Tang Juyi made a decision:

"If that's the case, we have to prepare the resources that can circulate in the city in advance...... In addition to trading with the locals with what we have, I think there is another way to get resources. ”

At this moment, Emile was also a little curious:

"Another?"

Tang Juyi nodded:

"Missions, missions sent by locals. I guess that after we enter Ocean Tide City, there will be a series of chain events that will inevitably lead to some needs of the local population that must be solved by outsiders...... Otherwise, with these things on us alone, not to mention investigation and exploration, it is a bit troublesome to live in the city. ”

There are also some words, Tang Juyi did not say them because of the consideration of the "role match", but Emile has already understood the content of those words under his hint:

Since the Extradimensional did not prepare basic living materials for them in the initial room, nor did it provide items of high value, it means that the acquisition of resources is also one of the difficulties of this mission.

As the role of outsiders, Tang Juyi and they want to obtain resources from the hands of the residents of Haichao City, and they can only through trading, robbing, stealing, and hiring, and the first three are difficult to achieve, so naturally they can only be hired.

As Tang Juyi said, in the process of exploring Haichao City, they will inevitably intersect with the locals, and in this case, there is a chance to trigger some delegated tasks from the locals, which will be an important way for them to obtain resources.

"Since you've said so, you must have made a specific decision?"

Emile asked tentatively.

When Tang Juyi heard this, he smiled lightly:

"What kind of wealth do you think a prophet who can see guidance in others, and an onmyoji of the East? Do you rely on teaching to educate people? ”

Emile kind of understood:

"You're trying to use the power of both of us...... Pretending to be a ghost? ”

Tang Juyi immediately denied Amir's words:

"How can you describe this noble art in such crude terms? This is called sharing worries for others and solving problems! As the saying goes, if you can use people's money to eliminate disasters for others, as long as you can find those locals with special difficulties with the help of guidance, we can naturally quickly deepen our relationship with them......"

Amir listened for a long time and finally came to a conclusion:

"You mean...... Rely on me to search for a target first, and then pretend to be a god - uh, to take care of people's worries? ”

Tang Juyi's smile began to brew the smell of conspiracy:

"Judging from the calamities and ominous things that surround this island, there should not be few such people...... Otherwise, how could we all converge on this island? ”

The meaning of this sentence is simply translated: the extra-dimensional choice of this broken place as a task of hell difficulty means that this place must not be peaceful, and there is a big problem!

The volume of "Unknown Call" is based on the stand-alone game [The Sunken City], drawing on part of the Cthulhu Mythos system, and also referring to some settings in the [Sunken City], interested readers can play this game, which is quite a good theme.

Of course, considering the feelings of readers, whether you have played this game or not, it will not affect your reading of the content of the story, just like you can read the volume of "Liu's Villa" even if you have not played [Paper Man].
