Chapter 05: Hidden Mission
"Broken Whaleskin Hat, Defense +5, Equipment Condition: None. It can be exchanged for 50 points, which cannot be taken in battle. ”
"Notes: This is the cortical tissue contributed by an unlucky whale from Madagascar, which is very good at protecting against all kinds of damage - love it, please cherish it."
Except for the pirate necklace, the rest of these things are garbage. Lin Xiao couldn't look at it, and threw them all into the imprint space, planning to deal with it later.
This shocking ambush and assassination journey is a long story, but in fact, it only takes more than ten minutes. In addition, most of the strongmen have come ashore, and those who remain are some minions, and the threat to Lin Xiao is almost none.
Walking out of the cabin filled with a faint smell of blood, Lin Xiao found that the rain outside had stopped, and above the endless sea, a silver moon exuded a faint brilliance, and the sparkling water surface was full of brilliance, and the water was full of light, rippling for thousands of miles. It's very beautiful.
Looking at the bright silver moon in the sky, two out-of-tune poems inexplicably came to mind in my mind:
"The moon rises in the sea, and the end of the world is at this time."
"Being alone in a foreign land as a stranger, thinking of your relatives every festive season"
Tugging the corners of his mouth, Lin Xiao walked to the side of the pirate ship and walked down a passage towards the bottom of the pirate. The perspective effect of the mental power scan had already made Lin Xiao make a decision.
This passage obviously led to the basement level, and the floor painted with dark red paint made a soft groan and creak under Lin Xiao's feet.
The passage is very quiet, only the sound of the wind blowing gently on the sea surface through the cabin, and the whimper is a little melodious and tactful, which makes people feel comfortable physically and mentally. Only one of the small rooms in the underground passage emitted a faint light with grains of rice, and the rest of the rooms were pitch black.
Lin Xiao silently walked to this door. The door panel of this door was obviously some years old, and it was covered with mottled wood chips, and the door was covered with large and small cracks, and the dim light shone directly through the cracks in the wooden door.
Standing in the doorway, he looked through the gap in the wooden door. The first thing I saw was a wooden frame, with a thick iron chain wrapped around a black arm, and at the end of the chain was a large iron hook, the end of which was stained with a dark red stain, which was dried blood. In the center of the room was a dilapidated wooden table, on which only an old thief with gray hair lay on it, snoring grogily, and the faint light emanated from an oil lamp on the table.
, Lin Xiao silently walked behind the old pirate, handed out his right hand violently, and a Western stabbing sword that had just been captured stabbed into the thief's neck, and the sharp sword more than one meter long directly pierced the thief's neck, and the sharp tip of the sword was stained with a touch of blood red!
The old pirate's eyes widened, and he grabbed the sword in his neck with both hands, and hissing sounded in his mouth, but unfortunately, the pirate's trachea had been cut, and the air could not enter the body through the compression of the lungs, but the wound on the neck, under the compression of the lungs, continued to spurt scarlet blood, staining the upper body of the pirate.
The pirate's face turned pale from lack of oxygen and blood loss, and after a tremble, he pulled out the sword stuck in his throat with both hands, and a stream of blood suddenly spurted out, like a faucet, directly onto the wall, forming a shocking curtain of blood!
As the sword was drawn, the old pirate's eyes suddenly widened again, and he collapsed directly to the ground, convulsing for a few seconds before dying directly.
"Number E4532, you killed a pirate Grolo, you earned 10 points."
A key appeared on the corpse of the old pirate, and Zhang Yang walked over and picked up the key to summon a treasure chest.
"Ding: You've got a frayed sharkskin glove. Worn sharkskin gloves, Defense +3, Equipment Requirements, Strength 3, Stamina 5, Agility 2. This item can be brought back to Nightmare Space for repair and can be exchanged for 50 points. ”
"Ding: You got 500 berry. Redeemable for 5 points. ”
Lin Xiao: ""
After glancing around and finding that there was nothing missing, Lin Xiao took a big step and was just about to walk out of this torture room, when a dark and hoarse voice suddenly sounded in a dark corner.
"This hero, are you in the navy? Can you save me from the city? ”
After hearing this voice, Lin Xiao was not so surprised, just now he had vaguely noticed that someone seemed to be there, and the arrangement here was obviously a torture room, who would stay in that dark and dark corner for no reason? I can guess the answer with my toes, and it is obviously an unlucky prisoner.
Zhang Yang originally planned to ignore it, but his heart moved slightly, and he only hesitated for a second or so, and said:
"Who are you? I am indeed a navy, and I was ordered to destroy this pirate ship. ”
The old man's deep voice suddenly became excited:
"I'm a craftsman who was imprisoned by this gang of pirates, and because they asked us to work for them, I refused, so I was locked here."
Lin Xiao was silent, squatting in front of the prisoner, only to find out that the prisoner was not very old, and there were still traces of middle-aged people on his face, but there were blood marks on his body, which were obviously whipped by others, and the wounds were covered with dark purple and pale red blood clots, some of which had already been scarred, leaving hideous scars, while some of the wounds were all rolled up with flesh and skin, revealing the red tender flesh inside, obviously having just been abused.
Looking down, Lin Xiao was suddenly shocked in his heart, this middle-aged man's legs were covered with a pair of big iron rings, and the skin on his legs had been blurred by the flesh and blood of the iron chains, Lin Xiao could even see the white leg bones of the sensen!
"Severe torture, cruel torture methods"
"I'm here alone, if I save you, I probably won't be able to complete the mission......," Lin Xiao said slowly.
"Please, Lord Navy! I'm just an ordinary person, I still have my own women, I have my own children, I really want to see them again! Even if I die, I don't want to die on this pirate ship! Please help me, I will definitely thank you when the time comes! After a pause, he added, "Maybe it will help you destroy this pirate ship." ”
The corners of Lin Xiao's mouth twitched, but he received a prompt from the master:
"Number E4532, you have triggered the hidden quest 'Rescue of the Afflicted', and there is no penalty for failing the mission. Do you accept the task? Yes/No? ”
Lin Xiao's heart moved, and he chose yes without hesitation.
"Number 89757, you have accepted the hidden mission 'Rescue of the Afflicted', take this distressed person for help out of this pirate ship, and you will receive an unknown reward for successful mission, and there is no punishment for failing the mission."
"Thank you! Thank you! The helper thanked him incoherently.
At this time, Lin Xiao's fingers behind his back suddenly moved quietly.
"Ding: You used a passive opinion bead to increase the opinion of the story mission, increasing the friendship between you and the target by 30 points."
"Current Opinion 40, Status: Friendly."
"40 opinion?" Lin Xiao sneered in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged and asked, "What exactly are the things you said that can help me destroy this pirate ship?" Why don't you tell me now, I'll destroy this pirate ship before we go out together. ”
"No, no, that's not going to work." The prisoner shook his head and said, "You have to take me out of the Void before I can give you something like that." ”
Lin Xiao sneered in his heart, and said, "Okay, I'll help you up." ”
The prisoner was immediately overjoyed, and opened his scarred arms, waiting for Lin Xiao to pick him up. But suddenly his face changed again, and he said lonely:
"But now that I'm chained, I can't move, can you cut the chains, or find me the key?"
The juggernaut beep sounds:
"Ding: Trigger a branch quest to find the key. The Fallen begged to help them free themselves, find the key when the Pirate Brigade returns, and complete the quest to reward 300 points and a 20 increase in target friendliness. ”
Lin Xiao's heart moved, he took out the key dropped by the elite pirates, tried it, and sure enough, he easily opened the chains on the old prisoner's feet.
"Ha, there is a saying, there is no place to find when you step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it"
"Ding: Branch quest completed, reward 300 points, increase friendship by 20, current attitude: friendly."
"Xie Lu Xie, Xie Lu Xie!" Tears of excitement welled up in the prisoner's eyes, and no one who had ever experienced it could have imagined the pain of losing one's freedom and the joy of seeing the light of day again.
But at this moment, there was a "poof" sound, and a dagger with a length of twenty centimeters had stabbed the prisoner into the chest fiercely
