079 Wanted
The place where Marger landed after entering the script was Novigrad, and it was the most filthy and chaotic South Street and Alley area.
At first, he was also looking for Li Nuo and Cha Bai in a panic, but in his own words, I saw the essence of the script in ten seconds. I couldn't find my teammates anyway, so it was better to worry about myself first.
There are many side tasks that can be received in the city, such as being a beggar for three hours and getting twenty copper coins; helping the old lady find a cat named Porky; delivering things to an old man with handicapped legs and feet; guarding the black crows.
The secret space between the tavern owner and his lover should not be discovered by his wife and acquaintances...
When he thought he was not far away, he received a task to sell matches and got a lighter design drawing.
Then, Marger's self-proclaimed counterattack began. Using this lighter, which was at least fifty years ahead of its time, he made his first pot of gold.
With the help of Watzk, I got to know Philip again. As a businessman, Philip attaches great importance to the lighter market. Today's negotiation is also based on this basis.
If it weren't for the name of the main mission hanging in the mission panel, Marger would have probably deviated from the original track and was preparing to start from scratch here...
"So you went to Phillip's house today just to talk about investment?"
Li Nuo couldn't complain about Marjie's experience, because his own experience was not much better.
Marger took a sip of beer and said, "I originally wanted to use Philip's relationship to expand my network of contacts and use it to find you and Chabai, but I didn't expect that I heard the sound of a trumpet at his house."
"Indeed, in this day and age, I may be the only one who has a trumpet..." Li Nuo said, picking up a piece of bread and chewing it while asking vaguely: "Because Philip lost a key, so you guessed that I
Went to Philip’s treasure room?”
Marger nodded, "Yes, it's time to talk about you. How did you become a demon hunter?"
Li Nuo glanced at Watzk, who was still talking to a stranger at the door, and briefly explained his experience.
After hearing about Li Nuo, Marjie pondered for a few seconds and said with a half-smile: "You are really busy..."
Li Nuo expressed helplessness, "So I have to stay in this shabby place for five days anyway..."
"Do you really think of yourself as a red scarf?"
"I'm glorious!" After the sophistry, Li Nuo said in a deep voice: "Do you have any ideas about the main plot?"
Marjie looked embarrassed and said: "Unless we borrow the power of the national army, we cannot move the Shadow Elder, but even the army cannot guarantee whether it can kill the Shadow Elder."
Li Nuo agreed and said: "It stands to reason, and the difficulty and period of achieving this condition are unpredictable. The early preparations require too much. It takes thirty days to climb from the untouchables to the top, and at the same time, it is difficult to get the army to agree to help us.
You know how old you are."
Having said this, he held his chin and looked at Marger.
"But please, Mirror Master, maybe it won't be so troublesome."
Marger was stunned for a moment, then his expression turned serious, "Mirror Master... Gunter O'Dimm? Wasn't he sealed by Geralt in the game?"
In the original game of "The Witcher", the Mirror Master may help the target of interest realize a wish, but you have to sacrifice a certain price, such as sacrificing the person you love most, or taking away anything important in your life.
But the wishes he helps people realize are often deceptions. For example, he created a non-existent child in the consciousness of a father who lost his daughter. When the professor got used to this "daughter", he "killed" her in order to spiritually
to torture the other party.
The Mirror Master is a mysterious creature that is beyond this world. He only does it for fun or to pass the time. The consequences of fulfilling wishes are unbearable for ordinary people.
In the game, facing the invincible Gaunt O'Dimm, the protagonist Geralt discovered his weakness.
That is the love of gambling.
Because the Mirror Master likes gambling, as long as Geralt proposes a bet, he is likely to agree. After tricking this demon creature into the bet, as long as he wins the bet, he can be sealed or expelled.
Li Nuo reminded: "Don't forget that there are two endings in the game, one is that the Mirror Master is sealed, and the other is that there is no seal. And even if the ending chosen in this world is that he is sealed, at the end of the game I remember what he said
I will come back in the future, and... Judging from the information I inquired about, someone in Keville said that Gaunt O'Dimm is still in the world, but he is no longer Gaunt O'Dimm."
Marjie's eyes flashed, "He changed his name."
Li Nuo nodded, and then said with an expression of embarrassment: "But how to find him is a big problem."
"It's not just this big problem." Marjie said with a wry smile: "Miss Chabai's traces, and there is another player team to be wary of. These two things are big problems."
Speaking of which, the two men sighed in unison, it was so difficult for us...
"What's wrong, you two?" Watzke's hoarse voice appeared from behind them.
"Nothing." Li Nuo waved his hand and turned around to see a stack of yellowed paper in his hand.
"What is this?" Li Nuo asked curiously.
"A new wanted criminal has recently appeared, and now both the underworld and the white world are chasing him."
Marjie's eyes flashed, this is a good opportunity to make money, "Can you give us one?"
Watzke pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to them. The first thing that caught his eye on the front of the paper was a man wearing a strange mask.
The more Li Nuo looked at it, the more something was wrong. This mask had two big round eyes and a big mouth with a strange smile...
Looking further down, there is a text written:
"Slaughtered the civilians under the towers in Hetherton Town and surrounding areas, attacked four young men in Novigrad, and stole important assets of Philip's family. This person is very dangerous. He is tentatively named the 'Mask Butcher'. If found, he will be killed regardless of life or death.
Reward 3000 grams."
Li Nuo was shocked. No matter what happened after this paragraph, he was not responsible for the Hetherton tragedy. The people under the tower were obviously a group of bandits. He was taking the blame!
"This is a wanted warrant from the police station." Watzke added: "Because the four young men who were attacked were gang members, there was also a wanted warrant from the gang. There was a supplementary note in it, saying that this guy was brandishing a gun.
The whip covered with sharp blades was mentioned by an eyewitness named Dovley, but I heard that Dovley was also seriously injured and died not long after he was discovered."
Li Nuo asked hurriedly: "That man named Dovli said..." He paused for a moment, "Did he say...that the murderer looks like without a mask?"
Watzk shrugged and said: "Since there is no wanted notice, I guess I haven't seen it before. But he is holding a whip full of sharp blades and wearing a strange mask. He is killing people and stealing things... I can only say that recently
There are more and more perversions."
Watzk suddenly changed the topic, "Mr. Demon Hunter, are you interested in this matter?"
Li Nuo smiled awkwardly: "No... just out of curiosity."
Marjie, who had been silent at this time, opened the task panel, lightly clicked on Li Nuo, and whispered: "It just appeared."
Li Nuo looked over and saw a branch line written on Marjie's mission panel:
[Kill or capture the Masked Butcher alive]
[Experience value: 2500]
