Chapter 42: The Edge of Madness

I already have some experience in how to deal with question mark NPCs, and it must not work to come hard, it must come to soft, and it must also cooperate with some money offensives.

"Teacher, I've had so hard looking for you." With a crying voice, I rushed forward, grabbed the old man's hand, and stuffed a gold coin by the way, "I've been looking for the Book Society and the Alchemist Alliance for almost half a year. Today, I finally got God's favor and found the organization. ”

"Ugh." When I said this, the old man was like a dance, but the yellow gold coin in his hand was a real thing, and his position immediately made a 180-degree turn, and his tone became softer. He put the gold coins in his pocket and asked me, "This is indeed the Scroll Society and the Alchemist Alliance's Sneda Branch, what are you doing?" ”

"I am an apprentice who has traveled thousands of miles from the territory of the White Elves in search of the truth of identification and philology and the study of potions. I wonder if I can study here? I pulled out five more gold coins and shoved them into his hand. Hehe, we're so poor that we only have money left.

"The Scroll Society never rejects sincere seekers of truth." The old man glanced around hypocritically, and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he took the five gold coins and said to me, "Follow me." ”

I followed his footsteps into a tall building, and through a spiral staircase, we came to a small room where a white-robed mage was writing frantically at his desk. The old man knocked on the door and coughed a few times, and the white-robed mage was alarmed by the sound, so he looked up at me and the old man: "Ifbilis, what is the matter with you?" ”

Ifabilis bowed for a moment, and then said respectfully, "Lord Ambaba, there is a pious apprentice here who wants to pursue a great career in appraisal and clerical science. I'll bring her to you, I hope it doesn't bother you. ”

Listening to Iphabilisi's words, the white-robed mage Ambaba put down the quill in his hand, leaned back into the chair, and nodded: "The book meeting does need fresh blood. Today's young people are so enthusiastic about vain monster-killing adventures that they don't want to sit down and learn more about the great experiences of their predecessors. Ifabilisi, you have worked hard, you go down and go about your own business first. I'm going to talk to this young man. ”

Epharbilis bowed in obedience, then turned and withdrew. Ambaba pointed to the chair across from his desk and said softly, "Sit down, young man." I have something to ask you. ”

A political counselor is looking for a little girl to talk about her life ideals? I don't want to do it in my heart, but for the sake of my life skills, let's just grieve myself for the time being. I sat quietly across from Ambaba: "Master, do you have any advice?" ”

"Appraisal requires a great deal of knowledge, while essays require a great deal of patience, both of which require a long time and a lot of energy to engage in. Are you sure you're up to the task? Ambaba said kindly.

I took off my hood and smiled, "White elves have a long lifespan, and I don't think time and energy will be a stumbling block to me." ”

An Baba closed his eyes kindly and agreed: "It turns out that you are a white elf, forgive me for worrying too much." He immediately pulled out two pieces of paper from a drawer and brought them to me. I shrugged my shoulders, and the census form again? I'll fill it in. He put away the paper I had filled out, then took out a small wooden stick and waved it in the air, and with a flick of it at me, there was an extra quill on the chest of my jacket with a pattern written in an open dictionary.

"What is this?" I asked Ambaba.

He smiled and replied, "You will be a full member of the Book Society from today onwards. You can go to the little house next to the staircase on the first floor and find a young man named Levin, who will guide you to the beginning of the forensics and clerical studies. As for the pharmacy you still want to study, you can go to the first room on the left on the 5th floor to find the alchemist Bedier. ”

I looked at him in amazement, how could he know what I wanted to do but hadn't said yet?

"Lady Turtledove, don't look at me in such amazement. I will never embarrass you if you are favored by Nellia and Arya at the same time. ”

"Who is your real identity?"

"Level 75 Continent's Top Ten Demon Masters Ambaba." He picked up the quill in his hand again and leaned down, "However, I am retired, remember to close the door when you go out." ”

I scratched my scalp, how can high-level NPCs like to jump out of the way and scare me? With Ambaba's guidance, the rest was taken care of quickly. Proficiency in every life skill is improved in a different way. For example, you must first read a large number of professional books on appraisal, first pass the novice level to reach the junior appraiser level, and then you have to increase your practical experience by appraising a large number of low-level equipment and treasures, so as to increase your proficiency. At the beginning, the document is to keep copying the book, to put it bluntly, it is a human photocopier, you can write a book silently without reading the book and just from memory, you will successfully advance to the junior paperwork, and to reach the master level, you must write a new magic skill book or martial arts skill book by yourself. Pharmaceuticals are relatively simple, starting with low-grade drugs, then making high-grade drugs, and finally developing new drugs by themselves. There are several things in my bag that I don't know:

"Encyclopedia of Treasure Knowledge", "Calligraphy Guide", "Encyclopedia of Common Medicine Formulas" and other miscellaneous knowledge books, of course, these garbage cost me a lot of gold coins.

Looking at these books, which are thicker than bricks, my head is bigger. Twelve years of hard study in college and four years of inhuman suffering, and now I have to gnaw on books in the game, isn't this asking for trouble? However, I believe that only by suffering can you become a superior person. If a certain skill is more difficult to practice and difficult to upgrade, then its development potential and advanced power will also be greater, this is an unbreakable truth in general online games. However, I'm really a little too big, so let's go get a few weird spices.

I was holding a dog's tail in my mouth, a cloak over my head, a sharp dagger at my waist, and my hands in my sleeves, quite a master's demeanor. Uh, my clothes are sleeveless, forgot. I wandered aimlessly around the Abba Plateau. Occasionally, they kill the long-tailed fox dogs and red fox dogs of the sixth and seventh levels who are lone on the side of the road. With skills and equipment, it feels different, basically two to three backstabs can be solved with a few slashes, and the additional attributes of the automatic blood recovery set and the hundreds of small blood vials in the backpack make me say "goodbye" to death permanently. I showed a completely different patience from the past.,Concentrate on killing the monster for more than an hour.,Although the level of the monster is relatively low.,Not much experience.,But it's very easy to kill.,There's a strange pleasure.,And the proficiency of the backstab has also risen rapidly.,I'm about to break through the novice level and move towards the beginner.。

At this time, a noisy quarrel was heard from the depths of the quiet grove. I'm a person who likes to watch the excitement, so I ran to find the sound.

There were two groups of people arguing, one side was large in number, at least twenty, all of them were humans, and the other was very small, only two people, one male human, and the other should be a dark elf if it was not surprising. The Dark Elves are just like their city, beautiful, slender, with well-defined faces that are unforgettable.

"This place has been chartered by the [Seven Star Society], don't you know?" In the middle of the crowd stood a plain-looking man with a fierce eye, pointed to the nose of the man on the other side and began to question.

"Chartered?" I used my stealth technique and quietly lurked on the edge of a bush not far away, quietly observing what was happening, and when I heard these two disgusting words, I couldn't help but snort. Chartering, that is, a group of people occupy a place and take all the monsters and resources in this area. It is a kind of monster fighting and upgrading routine that completely ignores the feelings of others and can protect one's own interests to the greatest extent. Lao Tzu never hangs such a person, in the past in the "Disillusionment" game a group of people told me what "charter" let me automatically avoid, I was on fire for a while, and killed them all the way to the resurrection point, and then they fled into the imperial city, and I killed the imperial city guards until they went offline. Fuck you, you didn't open this game.

"There are so many monsters here, and we haven't stopped you from killing monsters and leveling up. Isn't it okay for us to upgrade the well water here without violating the river water? The man argued.

"Do you understand what it means to charter a venue?"

"This kid's head is rusty, and the [Seven Star Society] field dares to make trouble."

"Boss, just kill them and bring them back to life."

"Eh, the man is casual, and the woman is killed like this, isn't it a pity?"

……

The group of people began to be arrogant because of the large number of people, and the words also shifted from the topic of chartering the venue at the beginning to the sexy dark elf sister, and the more foul language was spoken, the dirtier it became. Speaking of which, even I, an old rascal who flirts with women, can't stand it anymore. The girl showed unusual strength, her face was red, her teeth were biting her lower lip, her hands were clutching the staff in her hands, and she looked coldly at the group of scum with dirty mouths on the other side, some tears swirling in her eyes, but she just couldn't help it fall out.

In real life, if I heard someone tease Gao Yanyan like this, I would have raised my fist and greeted the other party's whole family. However, according to common sense, before I made a move, Gao Yanyan had already done everything. The man was visibly angry, he clenched the sword in his hand, aimed it at the other party, and roared, "Keep your mouths clean!" ”

"Clean? How clean it is, you have to lick it on the dark elf to know. Wowhaha. ”

"What if it's not clean? There's a kind of you come to cut me, I'll stand here and let you cut it, you come. ”

"Impulsiveness is the devil." I hid in the bushes and said to myself. Fools can see that these people are waiting for the man to make the first move, and when he turns on the PK state and his name turns blue, they can clean him up without any scruples. I prayed desperately that the man wouldn't get mad at them. It's a pity that it backfired, after there was a stunning woman behind the man, the brain's judgment was often out of standard, and the benevolent brother in front of him was obviously in his brain, so he roared and swung his sword and pounced. Despite the dark elf's desperate efforts to add blood to him, the man was quickly shot into a hedgehog, turning into white light and heading straight for the resurrection point.

The more than twenty obscene men surrounded the sexy dark elf, and their eyes were full of obscene expressions. A few of the people who walked in front of her had already begun to get fussy about her.

"Little sister, what's your name? Let's mess with my brother in the future. ”

"Old eight, what do you have to say to her. Whoever has the rope tied her to me first. Uncle hasn't opened meat for a long time, and it's refreshing to have a dark elf today. ”

"Old Lei, can you eat your body and bones? Let's go first, young people, and you can just finalize it. ”

"This girl looks very smart, I don't know if it's the original, hehe."

"The original can't be your turn, no matter how it is, the boss has to open the hail."

As they spoke, the men tied up the dark elf. The dark elf lay on her back with her hands tied behind her back, and she writhed to break free from the rope that was tied to her, only to make it tighter.

"Old eight, your means of tying up your sister are getting better and better. This girl is tied up by you like this, and everything that should be drummed out is bulging. A big sweat with a sloppy beard stretched out a hand as he spoke, firmly pinched it on a tall ** of the female dark elf, and then laughed wildly, "Everyone come to pinch, it's soft and elastic, it's really a baby." ”

This statement again attracted a group of strange screams. The dark elf didn't say a word the whole time, just looked at the group with hateful eyes.

"What are you looking at?" A small leader-like figure among them leaned in, "Don't say a word, are you dumb?" stripped you naked, see if you give it to the master**. As he spoke, he smirked and tore off the clothes from her chest. One hand stretched out, and the other hands stopped waiting. The dark elf desperately dodged with tears in her eyes, but her shoulders and the clothes behind her back were torn off one by one. In the end, except for a few rags left in the place where the rope was tied, it was already a full body**.

I can't take it anymore. Although that group of people were all about level 10, there were too many of them, and I didn't think I was crazy enough to think about taking on so many people alone. I have only one choice, leave silently, poor dark elves hurry up and choose to automatically disconnect. It's better to lose a little experience and equipment than to leave an indelible painful memory.

Just as I was turning to leave, I noticed that the Codex that Arya had given me was shaking wildly in the shrinking ring, making a mess inside. So, I just touched the ring and blew the code out. Strange to say, the Codex didn't shake as soon as it fell from the ring onto my hand. Every time I see that black leather cover, I feel a desire to caress it. I held the book in my left hand and gently slid over it with my right hand, the delicate and smooth leather cover was so pleasant to touch. When I stroked it for the second time, I suddenly felt that I couldn't use my hands, and I was firmly sucked by the code. Shocked, I tried desperately to withdraw my right hand, but to no avail. A cold feeling slowly spread throughout my body from my hands that came into contact with the Codex, and my HP, MP, and stamina dropped to a little in an instant, and then I was hot again, and my HP, MP, and stamina suddenly skyrocketed again, and then I became dizzy and lost consciousness.
