chapter.9 The Bone King and the Physics Mage (Part I)
Hiiragi also thinks that there are two most important places in RPG games.
The first is undoubtedly the level, and the second is the power-ups, as long as you have a certain advantage in both areas, you can complete many difficult tasks and defeat those players who have bad intentions against you.
The current Hiiragi also has an absolute advantage in terms of level, after all, even the warrior chief of the hero-level kingdom is only around LV.35.
The reason why such a level was not indicated at the beginning is probably because the 'system' of this world does not recognize Hiiragi's ability, so it will only show the default class level given by the main god.
So now that the state has been refreshed, Hiiragi's physical fitness has been greatly improved, and all abilities have been strengthened to a certain extent.
Although I said before that because the [Physics Mage] class has reached LV97, it has caused a situation where it is impossible to improve other classes.
However, due to the increase in MP and HP brought about by the upgrade, at least Hiiragi can also rely on a large amount of magic power to create countless magic attacks of the LV1 level......
In any case, there are benefits, but the only regret is that Hiiragi can't continue to level up other classes, so that he can only use the most basic spell skills of that class.
If the enemy is an expert in melee combat, Hiiragi is sure to defeat such an enemy.
After all, Hiiragi isn't a traverser like Ainz.
Ainz has very little real combat experience, and only relies on the advantages provided by the level and items to fight the enemy, and it is not clear what the combat method is.
However, Hiiragi is also different, Hiiragi also knows how to deal with tricky enemies. Know how to strike at the enemy's weak points. Know what the enemy might do next.
Although Anz is a salesman with social experience in the real world. Hiiragi is not as good as him in this aspect, but he is better than him in combat.
Hiiragi has always relied on the combat knowledge he has gathered to fight.
The enemy's movements, the next means of attack, which angle is most likely to be hit, what way to escape, and the strength of the opponent can all be understood through combat.
Coupled with the physical improvement brought by LV100, Hiiragi no longer has to worry about his lack of physical fitness, and can fight for a long time.
In addition, instead of continuing to use a wheelchair, Xiao Nai chose to use the Bard's [Strength Strengthening] skill to make her legs very enduror, allowing her to walk and sprint normally.
That's it. After buying enough equipment and renting a good hotel, the two of them returned to the Adventurers' Guild.
Just like in normal games, the Adventurer's Guild is the easiest place to gather information.
If you're lucky, you'll also come across some inexpensive intelligence merchants who can buy a good map of the hunting area.
Of course, Hiiragi now also has to provide information to the intelligence merchant to himself, after all, Hiiragi doesn't want to venture to the novice adventure zone anymore.
If you want to level up quickly, you have to choose the most difficult mission.
It's just that since Hiiragiya and Xiao Nagi are both iron-branded adventurers, it is absolutely impossible for the Adventurer's Guild to entrust a difficult task to two people.
Sitting in the corner of the Adventurer's Guild, in addition to handing over tasks and handling adventurer procedures, it also serves as a tavern.
Because he defeated Golem before. Got a good income, so now there are still funds to splurge a little.
"Little also. It's not very clear where the plot has developed now.,It's important to gather information for this.,Let's go and talk to the super cute boy over there.。 ”
"Isn't that the last thing you want to say...... To know the degree of development of the plot, you must first find the protagonist of this world, Anz. ”
"Actually, it's easy to know how far the plot has gotten now. When we entered the Adventurers' Guild, we didn't hear any rumors, neither street gossip nor gossip, so it means that 'Master Ainz' didn't do anything earth-shattering. ”
"It's understandable, after all, if there is such an extraordinary adventurer, it will definitely become a topic of conversation for a while."
It can be seen that since they have not heard the rumors of Anz now, it proves that they have not done anything big.
"Because now that Xiao Ye has a super high level, I don't think I'll be able to use it anymore."
"Don't say that, not everything can be solved with power, especially this world."
The first task is not very difficult, but the second task requires a certain amount of preparation.
Whether to force a breakthrough or to build an alliance needs to be thought about slowly.
The real life in another world is not a monster fighting and brushing level explosive props, but requires continuous collection of information and planning plans.
Besides, this isn't a game world, it's a real world.
If you want to complete the task assigned by the main god, you can only move forward step by step and stabilize the present.
Xiao Nagi's mind is also a must for Hiiragi, and it is definitely not a useless existence.
"By the way, I didn't eat in the morning, so let's order first."
"I'm going to taste the beer and chicken nuggets of this world."
"So ......"
After summoning the waiter, Hiiragi also ordered some food, and the next thing was the waiting time.
Aside from lunch, the rest of the day was spent waiting for Ainz to show up before taking action.
"Actually, I have a good idea. There are several different countries in this different world, and because of their different doctrines and beliefs, and because of the competition for resources, they are all hostile to each other, so it only takes a little provocation to cause a big war. ”
"Huh? Want to create chaos in another world? That's outrageous......
"It's really gentle...... So how about not letting these countries have a big war, and letting them all point the finger at the Great Tomb of Nassarik? ”
"Huh?"
Hiiragi didn't quite understand the meaning of what Nagi said for a while.
Literally, it means to let other countries attack the Great Tomb, and then take the opportunity to join it and enter the bottom?
"It doesn't matter if it's another world or our real world. As soon as there is a little unrest. There could be war. So what's the only thing that unites people who are at odds with each other? ”
"Common enemy ......"
Yes. Even if it has been in a period of great war, once the 'Demon King' appears, there is a high chance that the two sides will unite to attack the Demon King.
Xiao Nagi's meaning is to use means to make the kingdom, the empire, and the church state treat Nazarik, where Anz is located, as the biggest enemy.
Even if Nazarik has a strong fighting power, it is still quite tricky to be an enemy of the world, right?
Not only that, but there may also be other traversers, supreme beings in this world, and Ainz is not necessarily the only 'strongest'.
He acted so cautiously because he was afraid that a stronger being and a traverser with bug abilities would threaten Nazarik.
"For example, a man disguised as Nazarik killed the kingdom's master chief. Or sneak attack on the royal family of the empire, these are all good methods, but it will take some time. ”
Nagi looked at the food that was served, and she took a sip of beer.
"After all, it is necessary to collect information from various countries, grasp the actions of the royal family and the royal family, open up relationships, buy eyeliners, and so on...... There are many ways to do it, but it just depends on whether Xiao Ye is willing to use it, because I am not as gentle as Xiao Ye You. ”
Any means can be used to achieve the end. That's what Nagi means.
Hiiragi was also silent, taking a sip of the wine he had ordered. The sweet and astringent taste spreads in the mouth.
If Xiao Nai came to this other world alone, I'm afraid she would have taken the means just mentioned.
Use what you can to control the events of this world by staying behind the scenes.
"But that must have taken a long time."
"Of course, after all, it takes a lot of money and energy, and the best place is that you can also sit back and reap the benefits of the fisherman and watch the people of this world fight."
"This ......"
"What's going to be like that? It sounds like an exaggeration, but it can be done if you want to. Whether it's human or non-human, it's easy to control when you understand what they want. ”
"The more I listen to it, the more terrifying it becomes, it's not like 'Adventure Story of Another World' at all."
"By the way, I also want to try to learn alchemy, and then create a biochemical virus through alchemy."
The conversation is starting to drift into strange places again......
Hiiragi has also seen Resident Evil happen in another world, but it was caused by necromancers, not viruses.
If a biochemical virus is really created and allowed to spread in this world, only the archmage can expel the toxins from the body, and the general public is not quite pitiful.
This topic stops...... And ah......h
Hiiragi also drank the wine in the glass, and motioned for Nagi to look behind him.
From outside the door, two people entered.
The man in front of him was quite tall, he was wearing heavy black and purple armor, carrying two greatswords, and his red cloak fluttered as he walked.
In the back, an expressionless girl with long black hair and a ponytail scanned the Adventurer's Guild, and her expression changed slightly in a gray robe, and it was a look of disgust......
The appearance of the two people made the entire adventurer's guild quiet, and most of the people focused their eyes on the man at the front.
The adventurer on the side couldn't help but sneer.
"At first glance, it's a noble son who doesn't know whether to live or die has come to adventure, it's a pity to wear such good equipment."
"The woman in the back is really nice."
None of them knew the true rank of Ainz, and it was only natural for them to make such a statement.
Hiiragi and Nagi glanced at each other and continued to enjoy today's lunch.
Ainz and Nazaric Underground Great Tomb battle maid Nabelal. The arrival of Gamma means that the story has only just begun.
Their next move was undoubtedly to escort the Black Sword alongside.
After eating out of lunch, Ainz was still negotiating with the staff of the Adventurer's Guild, and Nabe waited quietly on the side.
Looking at the two of them, suddenly Nabe turned her face, and Hiiragi immediately looked away.
I think I've been noticed......
Hiiragi thought the same thing, and planned to contact them later.
The current Hiiragi doesn't have the idea of becoming an enemy with Ainz, and living in peace is Hiiragi's fundamental rule.
"Nagi, I'll reach them out to them later, and if you can, go to Karn Village as an excuse to walk with them."
"The purpose? Want to build a relationship with them in this way? ”
"That's pretty much it, and it's easier to gather information if you're around them, right?"
After all, the missions are all related to Ainz and them, and it would be nice to be able to join forces.
At this moment, Anz, who was talking to the staff about the end, walked towards the sign announcing the mission, and with his hands crossed in front of his chest, he looked at the sign and tore off a mission poster.
I brought this mission notice to the staff, and it was rejected as a matter of course.
"I'm very sorry, but you are not high enough to accept such a task."
"I see, that's the case, can you be accommodating?"
"I'm going to call the guards."
"Forehead ......"
I always feel quite similar to myself yesterday, except that one is rich and the other is poor.
Anz, who was rejected for the mission, thought about his next move, and a group of four accosted the confused Ainz at this moment.
These four people are the four members of the adventurer team [Sword of Darkness].
Peter of the Captain of the Black Sword. Mock, a guerrilla by profession Luclot. Pol B, the sorcerer of the Sword of Darkness, and the priest of the forest, Dyne, who is proficient in medicinal herbs. Woodwanda.
"Hey, this big brother, do you want to accept the task from our side, if you complete it together, you can also share the reward equally."
"You are ......"
"Sorry, it's a little late to introduce yourself, we are [Pitch Black Sword], although the team level is not high, but it is definitely not weak! First of all, this is ......"
After meeting the [Black Sword], they went to the second floor to discuss the corresponding matters.
The plot that follows is nothing more than escorting the apothecary Enfirea. Barea.
After telling Nagi not to talk casually, Hiiragi also got up and walked over there.
As I passed by the two adventurers, I heard them talking.
"Speaking of which, there have been adventurers who have recently caught unregistered black workers and sold them as slaves to other cities."
"Anyway, the black workers are a bunch of guys who don't have a sense of companionship."
"We're going to have to be careful, too."
Adventurers caught black workers as slave traders?
The so-called black workers are actually a general term for people who work as adventurers but do not join the adventurer's union.
Because these people are not under the jurisdiction of the trade unions, the nature of their work often wanders in gray or even illegal areas, and the members are often formed for profit without a strong sense of colleagues, but there are also people with good intentions and strong bonds.
Hiding this information in his heart, Hiiragi also walked to the second floor.
On the second floor, near the window, you can see seven people sitting there talking.
So, let's go...... (To be continued.) )
