Chapter 4: Emma

The third level of the brood.

This is a realm that can only be entered by contractors above level 6, and level 6 contractors can already be called strong, so almost all those who can enter the third layer are strong.

And Storm Bear is obviously the number one powerhouse in the third layer, there is no doubt about this, not only because he has reached level 9 and has the qualifications to reach the fourth layer, but also because he has high-quality equipment and powerful skills.

Now Storm Bear is thinking about whether he wants to enter the fourth layer of the brood first.

There are more opportunities in the fourth layer, and only in this way can his level continue to rise instead of remaining stuck at level 9. The time reward he can get for the tasks he performs on the third floor has been reduced by more than 50%, and the rule of forcing the contractor to go upstairs will become stronger and stronger over time.

It's not that the bear doesn't want to go upstairs, but he doesn't dare.

Yes, a strong man who is below the third floor and everyone gives a thumbs up, but at the moment he is afraid to climb to the fourth floor. Because once he got up, he couldn't go down again.

This is the rule of the brood.

Who knows what the situation is like on the fourth floor, but no matter how scared and resistant, you still have to go up in the end.

But even if he went upstairs, Storm Bear wanted to find a few trustworthy companions to go with, after all, no matter what trouble he encountered above the fourth floor, he at least had help.

However, there are only a handful of people who have reached level 9 below the third floor, and even if there are a few contractors who have reached level 9 earlier than Storm Bear, they are afraid to go upstairs for the same reason.

So those few people have been lying below the third layer, but I heard that the time reward they get for completing the task at the moment is less than one-tenth of the standard reward, and the reason why they can still survive is also because they control the time of a few contractors to squeeze these people, but this is not a long-term solution after all.

Whether they want to or not, the time they have accumulated by squeezing will soon run out, and with the addition of 'compulsory tasks', they won't be able to go upstairs even if they don't want to." Unless, they are willing to die below the third floor.

Storm Bear is not familiar with those people, and he is extremely disdainful of what those guys do, so it is unlikely that they will partner up.

The best person who can partner is his own subordinates, and in the Storm Bear team, the highest level except for himself is only level 8. If you want to reach level 9, you not only need a lot of time, but you also need 3 merits.

The current situation is that time is easy to say, but merit is hard to earn!

As we all know, Merit Points can only be earned by completing hidden quests or by completing quests on Expert difficulty or higher. Not all contractors have the opportunity to trigger hidden quests, or survive to complete quests on Expert difficulty or above. The reason why Storm Bear was able to be promoted to level 9 before was because of his extraordinary strength, and he was lucky enough to accumulate some merit points after completing a few hidden tasks, but the luck of several of his subordinates was not so good.

At this time, a subordinate sent back the news that a contractor was teaming up with an expert-level boar man dungeon, and it was said that he had mastered the skills to quickly clear the level.

Storm Bear was stunned, the boar man copy he had actually led people to fight. The whole process is extremely difficult, and you can imagine the ordinary expert level of difficulty. At this moment, someone actually teamed up with an expert-level difficulty dungeon, and said that there is a skill to clear the customs quickly, could it be that the other party really has any way to clear the customs?

Soon, Storm Bear met the organizer, a warrior in heavy armor who held a blue-glowing long-bladed axe in one hand and a tall tower shield in the other.

This warrior is called a 'one-handed axe'.

……

After Lin Fei knocked on the door, he quietly waited for a response, and soon, the sound of people walking came from the somewhat simple tent, and then the door was opened.

Lin Fei had thought about the appearance of Mokel's wife before. The other party should be a female orc, with a strong physique and extraordinary height, perhaps speaking in a voice thicker than herself, and having more body hair on her body than herself.

But seeing the woman who appeared at the door, Lin Fei was stunned.

He suddenly remembered that the poison trainer had said that Mokel's wife was very beautiful, but no matter what, Lin Fei didn't expect that this Emma would be a real shadow elf.

The complexion of the moon sprinkled on the clear water pool, with the perfectly proportioned figure, the purple hair is coiled at will behind the head, and under a pair of dexterous big eyes, there are mysterious facial lines.

And, of course, that pair of iconic elven ears, which are pointed and long. And then, Lin Fei's gaze followed the other party's delicate face, slid across the slender and smooth neck, and fell on the other party's chest.

What caught Lin Fei's eye was not the towering bulge, but a pendant. On that pendant was a stone with some kind of rune engraved on it, which Lin Fei was quite familiar with.

Unconsciously, Lin Fei's eyes lit up!

"You're Mokel's wife? Emma? ”

"It's me, who are you?" Emma, the female elf, the wife of the rude orc, stared at Lin Fei with suspicious eyes, she held a dagger with cold light in her hand, and looked a little dizzy.

"Mokel's goods, it's really a blessing!" Lin Fei said secretly, no wonder Mokel had to write a letter to his wife when he was dying, it turned out that this was a real wife.

However, with such a beautiful wife at home, why did you go to the wild boar man's lair?

Also, an orc can marry a night elf?

Apparently no one answered this question, but in any case, he found the wife of the orc Mockel, a beautiful fairy-like Night Elf.

"I'm here because Mokel ......" Lin Fei thought about the wording, after all, this beautiful woman was afraid that she didn't know about Mokel's death, and if she suddenly said it, she was afraid that she would not be able to accept it.

"Mockel, what's wrong with him?" Emma asked coldly.

He ...... He ......" Lin Fei tilted his head and thought for a long time, but he really couldn't think of any words to use to modify the next words, so he gave up and simply said directly: "He's dead!" ”

Lin Fei bet that if he knew what this woman was going to do next, he would definitely say it differently. Because after hearing this, this woman's face changed, and then she stabbed Lin Fei with the dagger in her hand without warning.

Fast, accurate, ruthless!

The basic melee has been upgraded to level 4, and Lin Fei, who has a combat awareness far beyond ordinary people, immediately knew that the other party was not joking. And under this attack, Lin Fei broke out in a cold sweat for the first time against the enemy, but even so, it still didn't affect his reflexes. At that moment, Lin Fei took a step back, dodged sideways, and at the same time drew the wolf-slaying short sword on his waist to block the woman's second attack.

The sparks and sounds generated by the impact of the metal reached Lin Fei's eyes and ears, and the huge power from the blade also made Lin Fei scold, this female elf really has the blood of an orc, how can she have so much power?

As soon as the so-called connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one.

Lin Fei knew from these two attacks that this female elf was definitely not simple, and even said that she was even stronger than Mokel.

And it's much stronger!

This is the truth, because Lin Fei, who blocked the first two times, was finally cut by the other party's arm in the third time, and at the same time was kicked in the heart, and flew out more than five meters away.

When Lin Fei came back to his senses, there was still the shadow of a female elf at the door. But a chill came from behind in an instant, Lin Fei didn't think about it, he slashed out with a sword when he returned his hand, and he heard a piercing sound of metal collision, and at the same time that Lin Fei's arm lost consciousness, a spark broke out in the air again.

"Stop, this is a letter from Mork!" Lin Fei knew that the other party must have misunderstood something, and he didn't know the reason, so he could only hope that the letter in his hand could make this woman calm down first.

Sure enough, Emma stopped, although in the next second, she could pierce Lin Fei's neck with the dagger in her hand.

Lin Fei threw the letter on the ground, then took a few steps back, turned around and left with a gloomy face.

To be honest, Lin Fei was a little annoyed, this was a good deed general mission to deliver a letter, but in the end, he almost lost his life. It's a little inexplicable. And he could have had a big fight with the other party, but Lin Fei tragically found that he was not the opponent of this female elf at all, and the so-called loss of face was better than losing his life, so Lin Fei chose to leave.

"That female elf is definitely not in her right mind, and I didn't kill Mokel!" Lin Fei scolded, trying to get out of his heart.

Thinking about it carefully, Lin Fei really felt that things were a little strange, why did that Emma do it? Could she be idiotic to think that Mockel's death was self-inflicted?

If it's not this, then there's another reason.

Lin Fei couldn't guess and didn't want to guess.

Although, Lin Fei was very interested in whether he would trigger any other hidden mission after sending the letter. Although, the pendant that Emma was wearing around her neck was a rune. Although Emma seems to be a thief who is even more powerful than Mockel, this has nothing to do with Lin Fei.

At this moment, Lin Fei just wanted to go back to the Flame Rift Valley to kill the hungry Taragaman, and then go back to take a hot bath. Because this time, he was only here to deliver the letter, and there was no need to risk his life to do something that might not get anything.
