Chapter 16: Occult (Chapter 6K)
Seeing Su Fan's actions, in an instant, whether it was the mysterious old man or the people of the Azure Heart Guild, they were all attracted by that skill scroll, especially the Water Moon Rose, whose face showed a sudden look:
"It turns out that the swordsmanship that the mysterious old man said is a skill scroll........."
The same thought came to the mind of every Azure Heart member.
The mysterious old man Fast changed his original lazy attitude, and his eyes were fixed on the scroll in Su Fan's hand.
The next moment, he took the initiative to speak, and his voice was slightly low:
"Young man, will you hand over this scroll?"
"I can take anything from the stall and exchange it with you."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the sky blue heart next to them was stunned.
They were full of brains, only wanting to buy the items on the stall, but the mysterious old man would not give them an answer.
Right now, this [viewer] took out a skill scroll, and unexpectedly got the favor of the other party, and said that all the items on his stall were up to him? Including bronze-level clothes, secret medicine blueprints, and even gray forging blueprints, this is conducive to the development of artifacts for large guilds.
This......... It's also too enviable.
Hearing this, even the Water Moon Rose couldn't help but show envy.
The next moment, she immediately realized something, and took the initiative to say to him while Su Fan had not yet spoken:
"Mr. Spectator, if you are willing to transfer this opportunity, I can pay the same price........."
"No, it's more rewarding than the same price, whether it's real-life money or other needs in the game."
"As long as it's within reason, we can help you solve it!"
"In my capacity as the Vice President of the Azure Heart Guild, I hereby assure you of this."
What Rose said was categorical, making people not doubt her determination at all, and if she were any one else, she would probably be moved.
In the face of such temptation, Su Fan secretly shook his head, if he made other requests, I am afraid he would have to agree, although he was a starry sky sword saint in his previous life, in terms of strategies in the game, there is no one to guide him at present.
But in terms of resources, Su Fan is still extremely lacking, and it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.
If nothing else, let's just say that the virtual helmet he currently uses is still a Type I [Ouroboros], which can only dive into five real hours, while the time flow rate of the world of "Old Gods" is 1:2.5, which translates to 1 real hour equal to 2.5 game hours.
Su Fan can only stay in the world of the old gods for more than 12 hours, while the opening time of "Old Gods" is from 8 pm to 6 am, a total of 10 real hours, which is equivalent to 25 game hours, and he only logged in for half the time.
Changing to a higher virtual headset also means longer login times and better opportunities for development.......... It all takes money.
Even a Type II helmet [Leviathan] costs hundreds of thousands of federal coins.
Su Fanke couldn't afford it, not to mention, he had to save enough for the tuition fees of his brother and sister, which was also a lot of money.
For now, he is very short of money, and accumulating advantages in "Old Gods" is also to earn money, and the conditions offered by the Water Moon Rose are very much in line with Su Fan's needs, but they are .......... Occultism is too important.
Even, it is related to Su Fan's advanced [Secret Swordsman].
If he loses the Secret Technique, Su Fan can only complete the conditions through another way if he wants to advance to the [Secret Swordsman], it takes too long, and the invasion of the Divine Domain in three days is imminent, if he can't be promoted to the [Secret Swordsman] at that time, he will miss many opportunities.
Therefore, Su Fanwan refused:
"I'm sorry, Miss Rose, but I've got something in mind."
After speaking, he didn't give the other party a chance to persuade him, and said frankly to Fast: "Mr. Fast, I don't need the things in the stall as payment, I want to get some swordsmanship guidance." β
When the crowd saw his actions, they almost thought that their ears had heard it wrong, and that auditory hallucinations had occurred.
Don't want something from the stall? This, there is no shortage of bronze-level equipment on it, which is enough to make ordinary players ......... No, even the core members of their group of professional guilds are very greedy.
You must know that the people of the Azure Heart Guild are not lower than Lv.5, and they are all above level five, after all, they are core members.
What can make them covetous, for the average player, it is even more precious.
Su Fan is the lowest-level person in the audience, only Lv.4, which is clearly displayed on his head, so Shuiyue Rose doesn't think he's an internal tester, and the reason is this.
But at this moment, Su Fan refused the things on the stall, but asked the mysterious old man to give some swordsmanship guidance.
Wait......... Wait a minute!
He seemed to call out the other party's nameβFast.
Rose of the Water Moon spotted a point, and a stirring of heart stirred into the small details that she had previously overlooked.
The name of the mysterious old man, why can he know? Could it be that he is not an ordinary player, but participated in the closed beta stage and has been in contact with the mysterious old man, but for inexplicable reasons, the character level is less than level five............ Reincarnated, reincarnated?! After Shui Yue Rose realized this, her gaze at Su Fan also became completely different, and she looked at it faintly.
If you face ordinary players, the core members of this group of professional guilds still have a high-minded psychological attitude.
However, in the face of reincarnated people of the same origin, and even the other party has important tasks, and is often the absolute elite in the professional guild, it is difficult for them to maintain their arrogance in mentality, and instead regard both parties as people of the same level.
"Be careful, he could be a reincarnated person."
Rose used the team to chat privately and told the other members.
Hearing this, everyone's mentality also changed, looking at Su Fan's gaze, no longer with a condescending sense of overlook, although the other party's character level is lower than theirs, but as a reincarnated person, isn't this the norm?
The reincarnated wasted the opportunity of early development and re-created characters in other towns, naturally falling behind others.
At this time, when Fast heard this condition, he couldn't help but frown.
He did not answer the young man, but asked:
"You know me?"
"Of course, Mr. Fast's characteristics are obvious." Su Fan explained, and then mentioned his identity as an excuse for cover: "As a desert guard, I naturally learned some news from my colleagues. β
"Oh, those talkers........."
Fast shook his head, but he didn't pursue it, obviously, he agreed with Su Fan's reason.
The natives of the Old God World are very intelligent and can be regarded as living people, they can also think, they will also be curious, and they will also have their own character and logic, and Su Fan grasped this and used his Shawei identity to successfully deceive Fast.
If you want to be a normal player, you can't do this, they don't participate in the Sandguard Trial, and they don't have the status of the Desert Guard.
Of course, the 'friendly' reputation that comes with the status of Shawei is also a very important factor.
Otherwise, if you were an ordinary person, you would have been cut by a sword from Fast, as a legendary swordsman of a half-blood, he has the blood of trolls flowing in his body, and he is not synonymous with a good temper.
"Since you know my identity, why are you still willing to seek my swordsmanship instruction?"
Fast stared at each other, his expression became extremely serious, and the whole person seemed to have changed his appearance, no longer casual.
"The way of swordsmanship, only care about strength."
Su Fan replied seriously: "I don't care about other conditions, whether it's identity, whether it's bloodline, or other .........."
Hearing this, Fast smiled, and even his originally sharp eyes softened a little.
The next moment, he took the skill scroll from Su Fan's hand, glanced at it casually, and muttered to himself:
"It's indeed a skill scroll that I haven't seen before, but unfortunately, the techniques on it are too rough for you."
"Since you have this heart, among the sword skills I have mastered, at this stage, this is the only thing you can learn.........."
After speaking, Fast flicked his fingers, and a red light peeled out of his body and fell into Su Fan's body.
[Hint: You have been taught by the Black Flame Canonized Swordsman Fast and are eligible, and have learned the 'Occult Technique' (Lv.1)]
[Hint: You get the favor of Fast and get the second redemption qualification at the booth.] γ
When Su Fan saw the prompt, he was slightly stunned in his heart, and he actually obtained the qualification for the second exchange.
You must know that after someone in the town of Jushi in the previous life discovered Fast and announced his coordinates, the people who came to exchange it were like a tide of the sea, surging endlessly, almost blocking this alley into a sea of people.
But there are only a handful of people who can exchange items from his hands, because Fast has two iron rules of trading, the first is that he only accepts skill scrolls of swordsmanship, and they are scrolls that he has never seen before.
The second iron rule of trading is that anyone can only exchange items once from his stall.
Even if someone later gets the rare sword scroll again, they can't exchange it for a second item from Fast.
Even in the Guild of Water Moon Rose and hers, the master swordsman who learned the 'Secret Technique' did not have such treatment, and after he finished learning the skill, he was not allowed to exchange the new sword scroll for items at Fast's stall.
That's right, the source of this strategy secret is the Azure Heart Guild, to be precise, a week after the invasion of the Seventh God Domain, the Azure Heart Guild was stripped of power due to the internal strife incident, and the Water Moon Rose was in exile.
And several core members who were loyal to her were extremely dissatisfied with the decision-making of the guild's top management, so they took the initiative to expose the matter.
This matter, which was originally only known to the official members of the Azure Heart Guild, was suddenly exposed to the players in the town, and after this incident, the high-level circle between the Water Moon Rose and the Azure Heart Guild became more and more estranged.
Eventually, the Azure Heart Guild withdrew from Boulder Town.
Su Fan didn't expect such a coincidence, when he came to find Fast, he would happen to run into Shuiyue Rose and others.
In their previous lives, it was at this point in time that they discovered the existence of Fast, so they had a follow-up transaction exchange? Su Fan silently guessed, so it seemed that the coincidence of fate made him bump into the other party, but he happened to take the secret technique of Fast.
Is this considered a face-to-face 'ε―ε'?
Hiss.......... When Su Fan thought of this, he always felt an inexplicable toothache, and there was a sense of 'husband is currently committed'.
He looked at the people in the Azure Heart Guild, inexplicably feeling a little weak.
Fortunately, the other party did not know about it.
And strictly speaking, Su Fan can be regarded as helping them, who knows if they clashed with Fast in their previous life, which led to the subsequent attrition, at least at the suggestion of Su Fan, they only reduced one person.
There is also Su Fan's demonstration, and he also knows that 'swordsmanship' refers to the skill scroll, which is the 'currency' that Fast needs.
"Mr. Spectator, you....... What did you redeem? β
Shuiyue Rose came back to her senses and asked curiously, and finally, she didn't forget to add: "If it's inconvenient, you can also don't say ........."
Her inquiry also represents the inner thoughts of everyone.
After all, they were not Su Fan himself, so they couldn't get a hint, they could only see a red light pop out of Fast and fall into Su Fan's body, looking at him with great greed and envy.
"Swordsmanship, Mr. Fast's secret skill.......... I won't talk about the specifics. β
Su Fan shook her head, did not reveal the details of her thoughts, seeing this situation, Shuiyue Rose also regretfully retracted her gaze, but she did not give up, and instead persuaded her: "Mr. Viewer, I see that you seem to be alone, do you have any thoughts of joining us?" β
"I can call the shots, as the vice president, and directly give you a 'core member' treatment, which is more generous than a full member."
In the professional guild, in addition to the high-level positions such as vice president and elder, the membership level is divided into three categories:
Core members, full members and peripheral members.
The lowest-level peripheral members enjoy few resources and are subject to strict contractual restrictions, but they still work hard for the professional guild, hoping to one day be promoted to full members.
Full members can enjoy most of the benefits of professional guilds.
If it is a core member, it is better to be treated, and it is basically a mainstay, which can be regarded as a middle-level cadre.
Even if the Water Moon Rose is the vice president, the number of core contracts she holds in her hand is limited, and for every core place given, there is one less cronie, so it can be said that the conditions of the Water Moon Rose are extremely rich.
Although the things on the viewer have been exchanged for Fast, the 'talent' itself is also a valuable resource.
When the people behind the Water Moon Rose heard this, their faces were strange, because the vice president had guessed that the other party was a 'reincarnated person', and there must be a professional guild behind him, how could he take the initiative to invite the other party?
Also give the conditions of the core members?
Sure enough, the next thing they saw Su Fan shaking his head and rejecting this suggestion: "No, I'm used to being alone........."
Shuiyue Rose was not angry, and said with a smile:
"Although the old gods world is free, there are some scenes and tasks that cannot be completed by one person."
"Multiple friends, multiple paths."
"Since Mr. Spectator doesn't want to join us, you can still maintain cooperation, by the way, the number of level 5 players in Boulder Town is increasing, and the 'Desert Relic' Wasteland Reclamation Quest is about to open, it is a level 5 quest, but we are a little short of manpower.........
Speaking of this, the Water Moon Rose still kept smiling, and her eyes like autumn water flashed with an unclear meaning: "Mr. Viewer, I wonder if you will be free tomorrow to join our reclamation team?" β
Desert Relic ............ Su Fan's heart moved, thinking of his previous life, this fifth-level copy that was famous in Juyan Town.
The reason for its fame lies in the extremely high difficulty of the 'Desert Relic', which is almost the difficulty ceiling in the fifth-level dungeon compared to the same level dungeon, and the desert relict dungeon has a plot event, which also led to the destruction of a large-scale team on the first day of the desert.
Even the two major guilds will inevitably be wiped out several times.
On the eve of the close service, there was a team of the Mowu Guild, and the strategy was successful.
Originally, Su Fan had no idea about the 'Desert Relic' dungeon, after all, he had only entered the first day of "Old Gods", and he had not established his own personal channels, so he had some friendship with him in the Green Thorn Studio.
But other than that, Su Fan couldn't find any other teammates.
Without teammates, the strategy for multiplayer dungeons is purely a dream, after all, the 'Desert Relic' is a large dungeon with a scale of 12 people.
If the number of people is insufficient, you will not even be eligible to enter the dungeon.
Right now, Shuiyue Rose took the initiative to invite him, obviously drowsy and came to send a pillow, but Su Fan's experience is so rich, seeing the meaning in the other party's eyes, he faintly guessed in his heart, and the next moment, he said along the way: "Okay, I have to prepare a little." β
Water Moon Rose glanced at his level, nodded understandingly, and smiled gently: "No problem, we will make an appointment at 1 o'clock in the second half of the night tomorrow, at that time, Juyan Town will probably open the 'Desert Relic' dungeon, after all, the number of level 5 players is almost up to the standard." β
"I'm looking forward to working with Mr. Viewer........"
Both parties have added friends to each other and left their contact information.
Su Fan turned to say goodbye to Fast, who nodded to him and then instructed:
"Spectator, you still have the power to exchange things at my stall one more time."
"Don't forget, if there's a new Skill Scroll, you can exchange it with me."
It can be seen that Fast's attitude towards Su Fan is more friendly, and it was that conversation that made him recognize Su Fan, after all, the argument that 'the way of swordsmanship only cares about strength' and has nothing to do with bloodline really pierced his heart.
The right to get a second exchange also comes from this.
This is the importance of 'intelligence', as a reborn, Su Fan knows the background of the Old God World better than anyone else, and this will be vividly reflected in his conversations with the aborigines.
When Su Fan's figure disappeared outside the alley, finally, the subordinate members beside Shuiyue Rose couldn't hold back, and someone asked, "Miss, obviously he is a reincarnated person and belongs to other guilds, why do you still want to win him over?" β
"Moreover, his level is only level 4, which is one level away from the entry threshold of the dungeon, and the book will be opened tomorrow..........."
Someone else questioned.
Rose shook her head, a gentle smile on her face.
It's just that her eyes are brighter and more thorough:
"Level 4? For the reincarnated person, he must be using a Type II helmet, which lasts longer than ordinary people, and has accumulated a lot of experience.......... It's just a character level, I believe he can arrive tonight, it's impossible to tell me that he's the first day to log in, right? β
Looking at the guild members' expressions unconvinced, she added:
"Take a step back, if you can log in on the first day, you will be promoted to level 4, and I, the vice president, will let you be the ......... Good no good? β
Hearing this, the guild member was completely out of thought, but he wondered:
"What Miss said is true, but even if he is promoted to level 5 tomorrow, we don't have to, we must win each other over........."
"Even if you find a level 5 wild player, although the number is small, you may not be able to find it."
"That viewer, but people from other guilds........."
Before she finished speaking, the member saw that the smile on Rose Shuiyue's face faded away, and gradually became cold, and in the moonlight, her eyes reflected the figures of everyone, like a bend of clear spring, and said in a quiet voice:
"That's what I like, otherwise, why do you think I'm wooing him........."
"Isn't it a great help for my identity, other guilds, and a certain 'hundred societies' behind them?"
Everyone looked at her expression and fell silent, as the henchmen of the Water Moon Rose, what is the status and treatment of their own young lady in the 'Blue Heart Society', they are naturally much clearer than outsiders, it is exactly like this, no one refutes her words.
"Okay, who of you has a swordsmanship skill scroll?"
Shuiyue Rose suddenly smiled, diluting the original atmosphere, and a few seconds later, a subordinate member volunteered: "I, I still have the most common "Fluctuating Sword" in my backpack, the most garbage scroll, the average swordsman is too lazy to learn from him, just give it to that Fast ........"
As he spoke, he had come to Fast's face, confidently took out the scroll, and handed it to Fast's eyes with both hands:
"Mr. Fast, this is my .......... for you"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Fast glance at him, and a look of disgust appeared on his face.
Bang!
An invisible sword aura swept over, and the guild member who presented the scroll, along with the skill scroll, shattered into starlight.
The crowd looked at each other, and soon, they realized a serious problem.
Like, probably, it should ..........
This mysterious old man named 'Fast' does not receive all scrolls, but selectively collects them.
Once you choose the wrong one, the end is quite miserable.
