"Can we join you?"
Tata and Maotou asked.
Lin Luo thought for a while, shook his head and said:
"This probably won't work. What are your achievement points?"
Tata and Maotou looked at each other and said inexplicably:
"Five o'clock! Aren't you?"
Lin Luo thought for a moment, but still didn't tell them about the rune fragments he obtained.
After he previously obtained the witchcraft fragment - Walking on Water, this item alone added five points of achievement to him, which was equivalent to all the achievements of clearing Silver Difficulty. You can imagine how powerful this thing is.
And so far, this is the only world-class item Lin Luo has ever seen.
The world-class representative is unique, which means that after Lin Luo has water walking, it is impossible for a second player to obtain it, and it cannot be exploded by killing him, unless the opponent also has rune fragments.
Now his achievements are up to 10 points and his prestige points are up to 26 points, which can meet some of his current needs.
But Tata and the others don't have enough achievement points, so they won't be able to go where they want to go next.
"You go ahead and upgrade first, don't worry about me."
After Lin Luo finished speaking, he walked in the direction of blacksmith Kelly.
Previously, the other party's favorability level had risen to admiration. One reason was that Lin Luo had high prestige, which was the most intuitive reason. The other reason was that Lin Luo spent a lot of money with him, and his favorability level gradually increased.
"Hey handsome young man! What are you doing with me again?"
As the only NPC with enhanced weapons in Hero City, Blacksmith Kelly is very intelligent, which is reflected in his favorability.
His smile became as if he were talking to an old friend who cared about every detail, and he even handed over a pipe:
"If you want to chat, I just want to tell you about the family's affairs these days."
Lin Luo smiled and said:
"No, I'm still here to ask about the blue essence. You must know something. Are you still unwilling to tell me?"
Blacksmith Kelly touched the dirty hat on his head and began to think. He suddenly lowered his voice:
"Then... I will only tell you one person, please don't tell others!"
Lin Luo nodded, and blacksmith Kelly began to say with a recalling look:
"I still remember...that was three years ago..."
Blacksmith Kelly's expression began to become cautious:
"I remember that there were many aliens living in the alien living area in the north of the city. I would sometimes make weapons for them in exchange for gems that could strengthen their equipment. Until later, I discovered something incredible!"
Blacksmith Kelly said:
"The person who can create enhanced gems is actually an intermediate alchemist and a real Yodle!"
"You have to know that the yordles are a mysterious race. The most powerful prophets in the entire Rune Land can't find their hometown of Bandle City. It is said that the yordles have long lives and wisdom no less than that of humans.
They are naturally proficient in all kinds of magic and manufacturing techniques. They can speak various ancient languages, including the common language of the human race, but they will not pay attention to strangers..."
"If you want to get blue essence, you may have to find it. But you are not as good at making and strengthening weapons as I am, so it may not pay attention to you. In this case... I may not be able to help you."
Blacksmith Kelly told Lin Luo everything he knew.
Lin Luo nodded, probably understanding something in his heart, and asked again:
"One more question. In addition to being able to redeem gems, blue essence must have other functions, right?"
Blacksmith Kelly nodded:
"Yes, blue essence is the common currency of Runeterra, and everyone will accept it. You can use it to find powerful warlords to buy arms, or even find legendary heroes, and use the essence to learn abilities from them, but
It must achieve enough favorability, and it requires a lot of essence!”
Speaking of this, blacksmith Kelly whispered:
"Also...it is said that weapons with legendary power can also be purchased with essence, but the price is beyond our imagination!"
Weapons of legendary power...
Lin Luo probably understood something, nodded and said:
"Are you sure the Yodel alchemist you mentioned is still in the Hero City?"
The blacksmith nodded:
"Of course, I have met it before! I can tell you its coordinates and appearance. It is wearing a dark cloak and is about one meter tall. It exudes a very cold aura. I guess
...This yordle is definitely not a good person."
When blacksmith Kelly said this, he warned:
"If you are looking for it, be careful! Even though the yordle is small, it is actually very dangerous!"
"That's it, thank you very much."
Lin Luo has probably already asked clearly what he wants to know.
After saying goodbye to blacksmith Kelly, he walked towards the Federal Center in the main city.
Since he now has a high prestige point, many private soldiers and captains will be in awe when they see him.
Lin Luo thought about the map of the main city that he had seen before, and walked slightly south of the central trade area. There were almost no players here, because ordinary players could not enter at all, even players with high prestige points like Lin Luo
, and cannot go too deep.
"Huh? Adventurer, this is not the place you should come. If you go any further, it will involve the military secrets of Hero City. Even if you are highly respected, we will not show mercy."
I saw a neat row of guards walking over, all of them level 30.
Although he is only at the green level, if he really takes action, Lin Luo's level is too different and he is really no match.
Lin Luo had already thought of his words and looked like he was lost:
"Oh... I'm sorry, sir. I want to find the central library of Hero City. I have encountered problems in my life recently and am in a bad mood. I need to calm down by reading books."
The south of the city is the military base and political center of Hero City.
Because it is too confidential, the map here will not be released on the official website.
After entering, players can only rely on luck. Fortunately, Lin Luo has high prestige and is a respectable figure in the eyes of NPCs.
"So that's it, you want to go to the Central Library... Based on your prestige, if you just go to the library to have a look, there will definitely be no problem. - Soldier Lin Lei, immediately go out and take this adventurer to the Central Library
Pavilion!"
"Yes, sir!"
A tall soldier stood up and said to Lin Luo respectfully:
"Sir, please come with me and I will take you to the central library!"
Lin Luo's current prestige is not enough to go deeper. If he breaks in rashly, he will be directly killed by those military bosses at level 50 or 60, and his prestige points will be directly reduced by five points.
But his prestige is enough to enter the central library.
Players with more than twenty prestige points and ten achievement points can enter the library.
These two conditions must be met, because the people who manage the library are all highly respected people, and ordinary players will not be able to get in if they have enough prestige points and insufficient achievements.
Lin Luo had wanted to come to the library for a long time. Unfortunately, the requirements for entering the library were very demanding. He either had to get rare tasks related to cleaning or organizing the library, or he had to have a good relationship with a big boss from the military or political department to a level above respect.
.
These two difficulties are neither higher nor lower than Silver.
Especially for the latter, the current military and political bosses are all above level 50, and it is impossible for them to appear in the player's field of vision.
How can we improve our favorability if we can't even see him in person?
Besides, even if they saw him, as someone else, he would not be able to get close to him, let alone improve his favorability, if he was blocked by a large group of senior private guards.
That is to say, Lin Luo completed a difficult silver mission and obtained an additional world-class rune fragment. If other players had just entered the southern area of the city, they would have been beaten to pieces by the guards and driven out.
"Your Excellency! This is the Central Library. I hope you can get out of the slump and the glory of the Federation will protect you."
The soldier saluted Lin Luo and trotted away.
…
At the same time, the sound of the game came to Lin Luo's ears.
[Tip: You have arrived at the important area of Hero City - the Central Library]
[Tip: You have activated the achievement - Junior Scholar]
[Hint: Your intelligence and spirit have increased by 10 points.]
It seems that every time an achievement is activated, there is a small reward.
The previous three achievements in the Silver dungeon all rewarded achievement points. The achievement of this junior scholar rewarded him with 10 points of intelligence and spirit, which is of no use to Lin Luo. But in the future, when Maotou and the others have enough attributes, they can directly bring him here to get a mosquito.
leg.
The central library of Hero City is a huge building with a very cultural atmosphere, which is heavier and more historical than the entertainment facilities in the main city.
In the new world, Hero City has not been established for a long time, but it has a profound historical heritage, and this central library is indispensable. It contains the knowledge spread throughout Rune Land for thousands of years, as well as the knowledge of various ancient city-states.
Culture and charm, as well as mysterious ancient legends.
The purpose of Lin Luo's visit this time is very simple, just to learn!
There are many books of foreign races in the library. As long as players have sufficient entry conditions, they can learn the culture and language of these foreign races, including many knowledge that cannot be found on the official website.
If they are willing to take the time, players can even predict the direction of future versions through the information in the books.
This is not impossible, there were such big guys during the closed beta period.
Even if you are lucky or thoughtful, you can find rare tasks from the books in the library.
"If you are a yordle... then you need to learn the yordle language."
Lin Luo gently pushed open the library door, and a trace of the wind and frost came to her face, which was the aura contained in the books.
The noble NPCs who were reading on the first floor saw Lin Luo coming in, and their eyes showed surprise. There was an adventurer here?
However, Lin Luo has enough attributes and NPCs will not come to make things difficult for him.
He nodded to everyone who looked over and walked very lightly, indicating that he would not disturb them.
The ancient central library was very quiet. Lin Luo's high agility made his footsteps almost silent. He followed the signs on the first floor and found the language area of the library. There were densely packed tall bookshelves, and some of the books in them were ancient.
, the printed words do not look like human race.
Lin Luo gently came to the bookshelf. The books here contained almost all Runeterra language collections.
However, these books all have study requirements.
For example, Lin Luo picked up a book, which was a book for learning the tauren language.
[Item: "Introduction to Tauren Language"]
[Grade: Blue]
[Learning requirements: 20 prestige points, 10 achievement points]
[Study duration: three hours]
[Learning consumes essence: 20]
[Description: The benefits of learning a foreign language well are endless, but learning also comes with costs. 】
Lin Luo opened the book and found that he couldn't understand it at all. The game showed that a fixed essence must be paid first.
It seems that essence is indeed the hard currency in the future, and we have to find ways to get more of it in the future.
Lin Luo did not study rashly. After putting the books back on the bookshelf, he went to the back and started searching. He gradually came to the advanced language area. Advanced language means the diversity and rarity of this language and culture.
Here Lin Luo saw "Introduction to the Language of the Undead Tribe", "Introduction to the Language of the Tree Human Tribe", "Introduction to the Language of the Ixtar Tribe", and finally even "Introduction to the Language of the Demon Spirit Tribe"
But Lin Luo doesn't need these, and even if he wants to learn, the essence is not enough.
Finally, Lin Luo finally found an exquisite and gorgeous little book at the end of the advanced language area.
This book is only the size of an adult's palm, but it is a normal size for yordles.
The yordles are a powerful and mysterious race in Runeterra. This race is naturally small in size, with a height of no more than 1.2 meters. Most yordles look kind-hearted and very cute, and are known for their quirky appearance.
But this does not mean that the yordles are weak. On the contrary, these creatures have a long life and can learn all kinds of ancient magic and the yordle fighting skills. Their strength is quite good, and one of the yordles can also plant poisonous mushrooms.
, this poisonous mushroom can also become invisible. If a player steps on it in the early stage, it will probably melt within a second.
[Item: "Introduction to the Yodel Language"]
[Grade: deep purple]
[Learning requirements: 20 prestige points, 10 achievement points]
[Study duration: fourteen hours]
[Learning consumes essence: 100]
[Description: The Yodel language contains very profound culture. Once you master it, you will have the basic conditions for learning Yodel magic.]
Lin Luo nodded with satisfaction and clicked to confirm the study.
Now he could finally see the words and symbols in the book clearly, as well as many strange and unfamiliar pronunciations and intonations.
Fortunately, players can stay offline while learning the language.
Lin Luo came to a relatively quiet place. No one came here, and it was basically in the shadow of the corner.
This is of course done to avoid having an NPC come over to say hello to him when he is offline. It is good to study alone quietly.
"If you get some sleep and wake up tomorrow, you will probably learn the language."
Lin Luo looked at the slow progress bar with great satisfaction and logged out of the game.
…
Lin Luo was not very tired today. The main live broadcast session was too relaxing and did not consume much energy at all.
However, Lin Luo went to bed after taking a shower.
Lin Luo woke up naturally around seven o'clock the next morning.
He got up and washed his face and brushed his teeth leisurely. He remembered that he logged off at around one o'clock in the morning. According to the game time, it had only been thirteen hours at most, which meant that he had nothing to do after logging in.
Lin Luo sent a good morning in the group and went out to buy a nutritious breakfast today.
He walked alone under the morning sun, wandering around very leisurely. After exercising, he returned home and calculated that the time was almost up.
The scene turned and Lin Luo appeared in the quiet library again.
The game shows that there are only ten minutes left in the study progress of the book, which seems to be pretty much what I thought.
Players cannot interrupt the learning process.
Because reading requires a very focused state, once interrupted, the progress bar drops by 30%, and you have to spend time studying again.
Just when Lin Luo was quietly learning the language, he suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps.
Lin Luo's perception is not high, but it is no problem to listen to footsteps in such a quiet environment.
'It's two people!'
Lin Luo was a little surprised. The two people were getting closer and closer to him, and then stopped across a huge bookshelf.
This chapter has been completed!
