Chapter 3 The Contractor and the Book of Contracts
"What do you mean by contractor?" While Millie was preparing food, Gu Xuan asked Isaac, who was sitting directly on the ground. Now Gu Xuan was eager to know everything that was unknown and how to return to the dungeon world.
When he was trading just now, Gu Xuan discovered that Isaac was not the main god messenger, but a new word: contractor.
"Millie and I didn't become messengers of the Lord God after we died." Isaac sighed lightly.
"Uh-huh!?" Gu Xuan was stunned for a moment, unable to understand the meaning of this sentence. He subconsciously thought that the people of the Lord God's Paradise were lucky enough to become the messengers of the Lord God after death, just like himself, was there any other way?
"It is true that the people of the original Lord God Paradise all became the messengers of the Lord God after their deaths. And the offspring of their other main god messengers, or characters in the dungeon world, are no longer the identity of the main god messenger, but the identity of "contractors" like me and Millyry. ”
"Wait!!" After hearing Isaac's words, Gu Xuan couldn't care about the pain in his body anymore, and crawled from the bed to Isaac's side.
"Don't get so close to me!" Isaac was shocked by Gu Xuan's goosebumps. Gu Xuan's face was almost in front of him, making Isaac reach out in disgust to stop Gu Xuan's continued approach.
"Can you bring the people of the dungeon world to the main god paradise?" Hearing the glimmer of hope, Gu Xuan asked eagerly.
"Yes, there's a special item in the Exchange Shop for sale: the Book of Contracts. With the consent of the characters in the dungeon world, use their blood to draw names on the Book of Contracts. You can transform into a servant of the messenger of the main god, and the vitality is implicated by the messenger of the main god, and the authority is shared. Worth 100,000 root points.
So Gu Xuan hurriedly meditated to find the exchange shop, and hurriedly found the information of the Book of Contracts. It is said to be a "book", but in fact it is just a thin piece of paper. However, this piece of paper has a great attraction for Gu Xuan. It's a pity that he needs 100,000 root points, and he now has 14,700 root points all over his body, but at least the possibility is great news.
Isaac looked at Gu Xuan in disbelief, one moment excited, one moment sighing, and another moment smirking. He even suspected now that the man Millie had saved was actually a madman?
"Is there any difference between a contractor and a messenger of the Lord God?" Gu Xuan smiled and changed the topic to cover up his gaffe.
"Unlike when you just become a messenger of the main god, there will be a trial dungeon. The contractor does not have this kind of newbie quest, and instead has a job to get the root point. Survive, become stronger, and then, like the Messenger of the Lord God, have the ability to go through the dungeon world to gain the root point. ”
With Isaac's explanation, Gu Xuan understood the situation of the contractor. Isaac and Millie were born in the main god paradise, how could a newborn baby have the ability to go to the dungeon world? So they have a period of protection, and they won't be reclaimed even if they don't have a root point.
This situation is not until they reach the age of 12 and have a preliminary understanding and behavioral capacity. Then you will receive the tasks issued by the main god paradise, such as cleaners or waiters, etc. These simple tasks are able to acquire a small number of root points and continue until they reach adulthood by the age of 18.
The accumulation of six years is enough for them to have a certain ability to complete the task in the dungeon world like the messenger of the main god. Therefore, most of the contractors are actually much more "lucky" than the main god messengers, because the root points they have accumulated far exceed the 1000 root points in the hands of the "newcomers" who have just become the main god messengers.
Taking Gu Xuan himself as an example, many of the main god envoys were ordinary people with attributes of 5. The increase of 1000 root points and 5 free attribute points is very limited, and if you accidentally get involved in a certain struggle in the dungeon world, you may die, and end the trial dungeon early.
Then, these main god messengers who didn't get any root points in the trial dungeon, and after coming to the main god paradise, they didn't know that their identity would be withdrawn if the root point was zeroed. As a result, it is common to see the "true death" of these messengers of the main gods. Like that cloud of light, when the light clears, there is no dust left.
By the way, Gu Xuan also learned a piece of information from Isaac Sky: "That is, all the trial copies of the main god messenger are all dungeon worlds with difficulty of lv5. ”
I don't know if it's intentional in the main god paradise.,The background of the highly difficult dungeon world.,Its battles are all world-destroying prestige.。
This left the vast majority of the main god messengers with nothing, and the aftermath of a battle ended the trial dungeon after death. Gu Xuan was also glad that he had the opportunity to become a servant of the Blood Being. Otherwise, he would have died at the hands of those orcs of the living dead, and he would have no improvement as at the beginning, ushering in the second dungeon world.
However, although the world difficulty is Lv5, the difficulty of the mission is very simple Lv2. Whether it is any of tasks 1, 2, or 3, according to the original plot, the conspiracy of the dead emperor's brother is destined to fail, and Xiao Gucheng is destined to become the fourth true ancestor to defeat the original one. It can be said that as long as you guarantee not to die and follow the plot, you can get the corresponding task reward of Lv2 in the end. Although there will not be the same as Gu Xuan, the additional reward promotion is just that.
Therefore, luck is very important, and whether you can grasp the arrival of luck is even more important.
At this time, Millie took out three black breads out of thin air, which should have been exchanged in the exchange shop, which attracted Gu Xuan's attention and asked curiously: "Do you even have to buy food with root points?" Can't you go outside and get some game? ”
Outside is a forest, not to mention wild animals, some wild vegetables should be everywhere.
"Well, everything in Paradise needs to be obtained from the root point. As for the naturally reproducing animals in the forest, we can't hunt either. Hearing Millie tell the story, Gu Xuan smashed his mouth. He now understands the principle of the main god paradise, that is, the root point is supreme. However, the second half of Millie's sentence made him have a question.
"Why can't you hunt?"
"Because in the Lord God's Paradise, the Lord God's Messenger cannot attack other creatures." Millie sat down at the rotten wooden table and beckoned her brother Isaac and Gu Xuan to come over for dinner.
"Really? Is that okay in a dungeon world? Gu Xuan dragged his tired body to the rotten wooden table and took the black bread handed by Millie.
With a bang, the back of Gu Xuan's head was slapped by Isaac.
"It's okay to talk less, and remember to pay for the root point of this meal."
Gu Xuan raised his head and saw Millie's gaffe, knowing his responsibility. As he asked, her hand holding the black bread trembled, almost unsteady. However, Rao was like this, she still nodded in response to Gu Xuan, and forced a smile.
With a wry smile, he silently ate the black bread with self-blame. It seems that Millie and Isaac have had a bad experience, and he blames himself for asking inappropriate questions, so much so that the atmosphere at the dinner table is extremely awkward.
Brown bread is hard, like biting into a hard stone. The same taste is also very bad and difficult to swallow. But fortunately, Gu Xuan was able to adapt to this harsh food, after all, he had also experienced such a life.
After that, Millie and Isaac have their own fixed tasks. Gu Xuan also stayed in the house alone to recuperate, and when it was time to go to bed at night, Gu Xuan finally understood what was inside.
There was a floor mat in the box, but nothing else.
Usually Millie sleeps in bed, while her brother Isaac sleeps on the floor. Because of Gu Xuan's health, the bed was given to him, and Millie and Isaac were squeezed to sleep on the ground.
Although there are still many questions, Isaac and Millie obviously have a secret secret, and they also want to save as many 100,000 root points as possible to buy the Book of Contracts and go to Agurola's side. However, Gu Xuan put his mind down for the time being, and waited until his body recovered from the pain of death.
