Xiao Fen followed the druid slowly through the burning streets. On both sides of the streets were ruins and ruins still scattered with sparks. Some elves stared blankly at their treehouses that were engulfed in flames, with confusion on their faces.
With expressions of loss, other elves squatted quietly beside the corpses of their friends or relatives, sobbing softly and singing requiem elegy.
In the game, NPCs always know more about life than players.
There are still players on both sides of the street. They are sitting or standing, looking at the group of tree houses covered in flames, with lingering fears or a little hesitation in their expressions. If there is a first sneak attack, there must be a second.
, should you turn around and leave here immediately, leaving behind the 500 contribution points you just got; or should you continue to fight, even if you risk your life here again and again?
The choice between the two obviously constitutes a difficult problem that tests everyone.
In front, the Archdruid stood next to the ruins with a bad expression. Next to him was a Taslin Silver Moon Knight wearing a gray-brown cloak. Now Xiao Fen has learned to identify these dark elves, and the silver moon emblem in the lower right corner of the cloak can distinguish them from the other.
Generally distinguished from dark elves.
He quietly followed the druid to the side of the Great Hurricane Druid, stopped, and then looked at the pale and indifferent elf man without taking the initiative to speak.
The Hurricane Archdruid glanced at him, nodded slightly as a greeting, and whispered at the same time: "Human friend, the guardian of our forest will always remember what you have done for us."
Xiao Fen nodded in the same way and whispered secretly: "You just need to remember my reward." Thinking like this, he raised his head and stared at the eyes of the Hurricane Druid with his beautiful and deep black eyes, feeling a little bit in his heart.
I'm curious and don't know why this guy called me here.
The Archdruid of Hurricane showed a smile that could barely be considered kind. It was like the rigid smile of a guy who had kept a straight face for too long and couldn't even smile. To be honest, it was uglier than crying. He stepped away to the side.
Taking a small step, he stretched out his slender arms towards the silver moon knight wearing a gray-brown cloak. The feather cloak on his shoulders trembled slightly due to this movement, which looked pretty good-looking.
"This is -" he introduced.
"May the starlight of Tallins bless you. I am Talon, the knight of the goddess." A calm voice came from under the cloak. Yes, it was calm. When he heard this elegant and calm voice, Xiao Fen's mind
The word calm came to mind, and just by listening to the voice, he seemed to know that the man in front of him was a guy who could remain calm even if the end of the world came before him.
"Mr. Talon is the leader of all the Silver Moon Knights in this area. His character is praised by all kind people, and his name shines like the brightest star under the night!" Hurricane Druid said softly.
He nodded as if to strengthen his tone.
Talon accepted all the praises from the Hurricane Arch Druid calmly. Xiao Fen noticed that his hood was raised slightly, and the image of the dark elf raising his head proudly appeared in his mind. He smiled secretly,
No matter who you are, you all like to be praised by others.
"But." While thinking this, he raised his head, "Is it okay for the Archdruid to call me here?"
"Of course." Hurricane Archdruid replied, and at the same time he cast his gaze on Talen, with a hint of worry and anger on his thin face. He gritted his teeth and said, "This is related to a piece of bad news."
Xiao Fen's heart skipped a beat and he immediately had a bad feeling.
Talon nodded and whispered: "We have received definite news that the Burning Ember Mage has received support from some aspects. We even suspect that they have regained contact with the people from the Temple of Elements!"
"Elemental Temple?" Xiao Fen was slightly stunned.
"That is an ancient and evil organization. In fact, it is a group of guys who believe in the ancient elemental race. In the war of the gods, the elemental race was almost destroyed, but the elemental temple secretly survived."
Lun said softly.
"What is their connection with Master Burning Jin?" Xiao Fen asked again.
"That group of despicable guys who can set fire is a branch of the Temple of Elements, but they have some history from the activities of the Temple of Elements in the south to the north. They have not contacted each other for many years." Hurricane Arch Druid
Nodding, he glanced around, with an angry light in his eyes.
Xiao Fen buried his head and searched for his mysterious, religious and historical knowledge for a while. He only found some scattered fragments about the Temple of Elements. He frowned, raised his head and asked: "Can I ask a question?"
"How did the two of you determine that the Burning Mage is in contact with the Temple of Elements..." He thought about the information he just found and pursed his lips. "As far as I know, the scope of activities of the Temple of Elements is generally limited to the Forte del Carmen Peninsula.
To the south, although I don’t know why, they have never set foot in the north.”
"Yes." Talen stretched out his hand and wiped the smooth hilt of the sword, his voice became a little confused and unstable. "This is also what we are confused about, but we did see it in the attack sequence of the Burning Mage.
People from the elemental tribe."
"Yes, the Ember Mage not only attacked our place! With the help of the Temple of Elements, they also launched surprise attacks on two other Druid settlements!" The voice of the Great Druid of Hurricane deepened.
, there was a crunching sound in his hand, and a piece of charred wood was crushed into two pieces, and the black powder disappeared in the wind.
"In this attack, we lost two Archdruids, and the two settlements were almost burned to the ground. The players there had already fled in all directions. I believe that if this news is confirmed, the players here will not be able to escape either.
How much is left?" Talon's voice was still low, but it sounded like a person who was not involved was narrating.
Xiao Fen's eyes flashed for a moment, as if he vaguely remembered something, but he quickly shook his head, and began to scream in his heart. According to the current strength ratio of Burning Master and Druids, there seems to be no one on his side.
The advantage was obvious, but he began to doubt his original decision.
After thinking for a while, he slowly replied: "Okay, let's get back to the topic, what do you want me to do... uh, is it a mission?"
Silence spread among the three people. After a while, Talon raised his hand, unfolded a delicate sheepskin scroll in the thick cloth cloak, and whispered: "Mage Burning Ember retreated in a hurry today, which allowed us to see
A glimmer of hope. Therefore, as the player with the highest contribution here, we hope that you will cooperate with us and take this commission to lead all the players here to launch a counterattack against Burning Ember Mage with us, and the time is scheduled for this evening!"
"System prompt: The mission 'Turn the Tide' has been triggered. Mission level: C. Do you accept it, player?"
Xiao Fen was stunned for a moment, and chose 'no' without hesitation. He smiled sarcastically and led the players? The most untrustworthy people in the game are the players. When there are many people, they can swarm them, but in dangerous moments, they can also swarm them.
The player's camp will never be fixed.
He shook his head and said: "I will never accept this task!"
"Is it too difficult?" There was a hint of unfriendliness in the archdruid's voice.
"No! Even if this mission is only an F-level mission, I won't accept it! You won't understand this!"
"Why?" Talon and the Archdruid were both stunned.
"Because players, you don't understand... Players are the most untrustworthy guys! The difficulty of mission C may be just right for me, but if there are players involved, it will be very bad!" Xiao Fen shook his head.
Shake his head.
Tarun raised his head and looked at the players gathered in twos and threes in the distance, and nodded with understanding, "You are not the only player I have contacted. Maybe I understand what you mean... In addition, I found that you are a
Calm guy, so here's another mission that might suit you!"
"What mission?" Xiao Fen was slightly stunned, thinking that after doing the mission for a long time, it was still selective.
Talon turned his gaze to the Archdruid, who nodded slightly, unfolded a beautiful piece of papyrus, and said calmly: "After several years of confrontation, we have always wanted to know the real reason why the Burning Mage came here.
, Now, we are beginning to worry that their purpose here is related to the threat of the resurgence of the elemental race."
After a pause, he continued: "We need someone to sneak into the Burning Mage's Tower and find their true purpose of coming here!"
"System prompt: The mission 'Tower of Elements' has been triggered. Mission level: D+. Please let the player accept it."
Xiao Fen frowned. The system in Canaan is very strict about grading. With his current ability, he can complete C-level tasks, and D+-level tasks are more than enough. However, this task seems a bit unbelievable, allowing him to infiltrate the opponent's mage alone.
Tower, is it just a D+ level mission? Are you kidding me?
"Why should I go on this mission? Aren't your NPCs more qualified for this mission?" He glanced at Talen. "For example, the dark elves?"
The archdruid shook his head, "That's because of the magic alert. The Ember Mages are all humans, and the element of their magic alert is any non-human. As long as a non-human character enters it, it will cause a reaction in the entire elemental tower."
."
Tarun said: "There are no human NPCs around here, and you are the only human player who has contributed the most, so..."
"So it's me?" Xiao Fen smiled and hummed: "Then how do I sneak in? I don't think I have the strength to kick in directly!"
"Of course." The Archdruid intertwined his slender fingers. "Tonight we will create a chance for you! We will raid the Tower of Ember from the north. At this time, you can enter from the south. We will send two silver
Moon Knight escorts you until you arrive."
"Then, let's talk about my reward!" At this time, Xiao Fen suddenly remembered a series of tasks he had done in Dragon City. In fact, he was very dissatisfied with the reward for that task, so much so that he still feels resentful about it.
The Archdruid thought for a moment and said: "Magic equipment worth no less than 5000 GP!" After a pause, he glanced at Xiao Fen, "It's equipment that suits you very well!"
Xiao Fen's heart moved slightly. He thought about it and felt that the D+ level mission should indeed be within his scope. Even if it was really not possible, with his own ability, he should be able to escape unscathed when faced with the challenge.
"Okay! I agree!" He nodded and accepted the task.
Talen, who had been silent at this time, suddenly spoke. He looked at Xiao Fen carefully and whispered: "The extension of this mission may involve the history of Oras. Remember not to trigger this part. Now...
Neither players nor NPCs are capable of accepting this change!"
Hearing what he said, Xiao Fen's heart skipped a beat, and the words "plot mission" suddenly appeared in his mind. As for what Tarun said next, he probably didn't hear it.
