Chapter 165 New Changes
Shen Chen put down the reagents in his hands and breathed a long sigh of relief. The grass decoction he made finally entered the second stage, and the success rate increased to about 15%.
Since receiving the support of new medicinal materials, the research and development work and his own proficiency have greatly increased, but he does not want to be bound here by alchemy.
Now he feels that the quality of the current potion is enough, the success rate will not make players complain too much, and will continue to attract them to join the career of demon hunters; there is still enough profit space for Shen Chen and Vesemir to make a lot of money The bowl is full.
Giving the new potion formula to Vesemir's mirror image, of course he would not do this kind of mechanical work by himself, and then he came to Vanessa's training place.
Vanessa was able to become a top thief later on. She was born calm, careful, tolerant, courageous, and had excellent physical condition. The training in the past few days also showed this one by one, and she grew extremely quickly.
In Shen Chen's eyes, it is a rapidly growing experience bar, divided into template experience and level experience...one determines Vanessa's growth, and the other determines her level.
Due to her age, Vanessa still has a low age experience penalty debuff. Due to her favorability, Shen Chen cannot see more detailed status, but he at least has an understanding of the rules and panels for cultivating NPCs in the world of gods and demons. Got a certain understanding.
"There are still two points of favorability." Shen Chen watched the training for a while. Since his reputation did not reach the level of respect, the mission was still not triggered. However, Shen Chen was very restless and wanted to go to Sentinel Ridge to investigate first.
"Tomorrow's Master, there is an NPC calling for you!" Just as Shen Chen was thinking about the task, a player suddenly appeared from the side.
...
"Outside the camp, that's a bit interesting." Shen Chen followed the player and left Jason's camp. This was not because he was bold, but because the area around Jason's camp had long been hollowed out by players. No one would be stupid. Let’s start here.
But when he saw the NPC, Shen Chen felt a little flustered. The black dragon was not afraid of this small player camp.
Yes, under a dead tree in front of Shen Chen, it was the black dragon Zog.
"You are quite capable these days!" Zog sarcastically said as soon as they met.
Shen Chen thought about it for a moment, and the people who could make the black dragon Zog go to war were probably Vanessa, the daughter of Van Cleef he saved, and the leader of New Defias who came to harass the camp from time to time!
This black dragon probably saw that the Defias Brotherhood was gradually losing control, so it did something secretly. It used "its" people to gain control of Defias, and wanted to eradicate it.
Unfortunately, Shen Chen ruined the good thing and saved Vanessa, which made some of the "nobles" under Black Dragon very angry.
However, this matter is more complicated than Shen Chen thought, otherwise Zog would not be so easy to talk to today. I am afraid that he would have to kill him twice to vent his anger while retracting his scales.
As for the friendship that helped Zog before, it is nothing. In the eyes of the black dragon, these humans are all ants. When they lose their benefits, they can be abandoned at will.
And Shen Chen still has some use here in Black Dragon. Not to mention that he may have additional information, just being able to organize this outpost camp is enough to prove his value.
Shen Chen quickly thought of this. It didn't matter whether he could save Vanessa or not. Even if he had a conflict with those "nobles", it wouldn't hurt. As long as the kingdom didn't send troops, everything would be fine.
After thinking about it, Shen Chen immediately said: "Although this outpost camp has developed and grown, these adventurers are enough to weaken the strength of Defias and the bandits in the Western Wilderness. They are only interested in profit and will not affect your master's plan. !”
"Of course I know, otherwise we wouldn't be meeting here today." Zog smiled. Those nobles were just "tools" for him and his master to control Stormwind City, and they all had their own ideas in their hearts, otherwise they wouldn't have appeared. The previous invasion of the Church of Pain must have been an attempt to get rid of the princess' control.
"I came to you today because I have other instructions." Zog took a deep look at Shen Chen. He knew that the inheritor in front of him was not easy to get along with. He naturally had his own thoughts in his heart, otherwise he would not have saved Fan Kli. Husband's daughter.
But it doesn't matter. The black dragon doesn't ask for loyalty from others. As long as it can complete the task and not disrupt the master's plan, then it can do anything.
"It's interesting, please tell me." Shen Chen welcomed Zog's visit without any scruples. Now that I understand your Black Dragon's thoughts, I don't have to be afraid.
Zog was a little angry. This guy actually looked at the great black dragon? But thinking of the princess's instructions and Shen Chen's ability, this emotion flashed through the dragon's scales.
"There is a problem in the Death Mine. An evil force has taken over there. Its power is expanding rapidly. Investigate clearly. Don't let that force attract the attention of the kingdom. Do you understand?"
Shen Chen nodded, but felt a little funny in his heart. Who is the evil force... But he immediately thought, was the accident between Vanessa and Defias caused by this?
"This is really interesting!"
...
Not all players are interested in changing careers to become demon hunters, at least not Xu Xiong, the president of Xiangtian Academy and Tianxiang Guild.
Being arrogant and arrogant, of course he would not choose to pick up Shen Chen's leftovers. What's more, he has to compete with many big guilds. Potions and quotas for job transfer are not so easy to get!
He chose to explore the Western Wilderness in advance. In his opinion, since Vesemir and the Witcher have attracted the attention of most players, the attention on the Western Wilderness should also be reduced a lot!
In that case, their Tianxiang Guild would not only have a lot of opportunities to snatch the tasks, experience and other resources of this map, but they should also have more opportunities.
He divided the guild into two groups. One group stayed in the camp and mainly robbed the purification potion resources that passed through Hogg to increase the number of players above the bronze level. Players who exceeded this threshold followed him deep into the wilderness.
In the first two days, there was nothing gained. Those elites close to the camp were either cleaned up by Shen Chen, or he used them as strategies and sold them. Xu Xiong did have some courage. He gritted his teeth and led his men deep into the red name. Monster (leap-level) area.
They didn't know the location of Sentinel Ridge, so they just walked along the road. Near the Gold Coast Mine, they were surrounded by a group of farmers wearing yellow and green scarves.
...
Although the players tried their best to protect the safety of Jason's camp, information about Jason's camp could not help but spread slowly. Farmers, wanderers, merchants, and bandits all gathered in Dupaig. in hands.
The biggest difference between him and Van Cleef is that one of them came from a thief, while he came from a noble family.
Van Cleef only knows how to use dark and violent means such as assassination, coercion, and disruption to control Defias and create threats to the kingdom.
But Du Paige knew very well what the kingdom's top officials, the noble council, and the kingdom's military were thinking, not to mention that there were "internal agents" and "superiors" who were providing him with a steady stream of support!
In order to reassure Countess Katlana, he specifically supported the growth of the Westfall People's Army, and secretly promoted the evil intentions of the nobles and the Kingdom of Stormwind, such as allowing Defias to destroy Westfall, refusing to support Sentinel Ridge, etc.
On the other hand, since among the current Defias members, the old stonemasons have disappeared into the mines of death, except for those who have the deepest hatred for the Kingdom of Stormwind, the other members are more interested in taking advantage of Defias.
Thieves who make a fortune.
This made it easier for Dupaig to control him. He weakened his penetration into Elwynn Forest and focused on farmers and ordinary merchants.
In this way, the conflict between Defias and the nobles was alleviated, and countless farmers were expelled, transforming them into a new chaos, the People's Army of the West Wilderness.
The people's army has grown stronger and the conflicts with Defias have continued. This has also caused the noble council and the kingdom to temporarily give up their vigilance against Defias and turn their attention back to the three-acre land. Comfort is what the nobles want most.
Situation, since Defias won’t come to take revenge, there’s no need to worry!
At this time, Dupaig controlled the newly born Defias and influenced the People's Army. He was naturally excited and arrogant. He was now the uncrowned king of the Western Wilderness.
